I need to supplement our main income and pay down debt, but I also would like to be home for my kids. I am con- cerned about getting scammed. Do you have any sug- gestions for legitimate jobs that allow me to work from home? -- Mary S., Connecticut Dear Mary S.: I'm sure there are untold stay-at-home moms out there who are looking for the same thing: a company that will hire them to work at home, pay them a nice hourly wage and give them the freedom to work when the kids are asleep or at school. If you are going to find a way to get paid working from home, you're going to have to be cleverer than all your competitors. I have three suggestions: 1) Look for part-time jobs being advertised for which you have the experience and skills. Then approach the company with the idea of their hir- ing you to do that job from your home. 2) Seek out companies that are looking for at-home workers. Be pre- pared to run into ads offering at-home work stuck to telephone poles and Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol. Arrests A juvenile was reported- ly arrested Tuesday after- noon on Walnut Street after calling police to report his father’s girlfriend had struck him. On arrival, police reportedly found the juve- nile and a man engaged in a fight in the parking lot. Injury A 16-year-old was reportedly taken to St. Eliz- abeth Community Hospital Tuesday afternoon after someone found him with a severe cut to his finger on Laurel Way. Theft •A man reported the theft of a 1999 Toyota Camry Tuesday morning on Damon Avenue. It also appeared someone tried to tucked under your car's windshield wipers. These ads can be enticing, but proceed with extreme cau- tion. Not all work-at-home opportunities can deliver on their promises. If a work-at-home pro- gram is legitimate, the company will tell you in writing what's involved. Here are some questions to ask: What tasks, including every step of the job, will I have to perform? Will I be paid a salary, or will my pay be based on commis- sion? Who will pay me? When will I get my first paycheck? I would be par- ticularly cautious before going with a company that requires payment of a fee upfront to become a home worker. 3) Identify the thing(s) that you do best. Then identify a need that you can meet with your skills. You may have what it takes to start a cottage business. If you are patient, diligent and willing to work very hard, you will find great success. Dear Mary: Why should we, as break into his garage and shop and steal several hand and power tools. •A man reported the theft of a tractor battery Tuesday afternoon on Dia- mond Avenue, at the old mill. The loss is $80. •A newspaper rack was reported burglarized Friday night on Walnut Street. Drugs Fred Wyckoff reported finding 29 Vicodin pills, a pair of syringes and some hash Tuesday morning in the women’s bathroom at Rolling Hills Casino. Trespassing Douglas Craig Bailey reported Tuesday morning that juveniles have been tearing down a fence on Bowman Road and riding ATVs on the other side. The damage is estimated to be $375, and the juveniles were reportedly admon- ished by their parents. Odd •A man reportedly drove his car into a ditch to avoid a collision with a dri- DEAR DR. GOTT: I am an 80-year-old female diagnosed with lichen planus. Other than being told it is an autoim- mune disease, the dentists and doc- tors I have visited have no idea what to do with me. I have a white coat- ing in my mouth on the bottom gums and occasionally break out with water blis- ters on my legs. Dr. Peter Gott I am writing to you as a last resort for help. I have read on the computer that it is short-lived, but may come back. I have had it for three years now, and while it doesn’t always cause pain, it is annoying. Can you offer any suggestions or aid? I once sent away for pills that were supposed to rid me of it, but they did noth- ing to help and they were expensive — $65 for a 30- day supply. I think they were some kind of herb. DEAR READER: Per- haps your “last resort” will solve the problem. The pre- cise cause of lichen planus remains unknown. As you are aware, it is thought to be related to an autoimmune disease or allergy and pre- sents with mouth and skin lesions. The mouth lesions can be painful, may increase in size and are located on the sides of the tongue, inside the cheek, and occasionally on the gums. Skin lesions have distinct bor- ders, can develop blisters or ulcers, are shiny or scaly in appearance, and are symmetrical and itchy. Risks include exposure to gold, some diuret- ics and antibiotics, other medications and hepatitis C. A physician makes the diagnosis through visual examination. Related symptoms are ridges in finger and toe- 8th Annual FIBER ON THE FOOT May 1-2 • 9 to 5 Fiber Livestock Festival Family fun Handcrafter’s Paradise Plus 6 other events at the TDFG www.fiberonthefoot.com Jack the Ribber Come by for the Best Lunch in town • Ribs •Tri-Tip • Pulled Pork • Specials Mon.-Fri. 11am-8pm Sat. 4-9pm 1150 Monroe St. 527-6108 Published through a co- sponsorship agreement with the Rated PG State Theatre, 333 Oak Street, Red Bluff www.statetheatreredbluff.com D NEWSAILY RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY GREGG COHEN Paid political advertisement Rated PG Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate hardworking Americans, have to con- stantly strive to be frugal in every way? It appears that we are becoming poorer in this country, and we're fight- ing for our freedom to live a life just happily raising a family. As a hardworking individual, I completely disagree that liv- ing below my means is a trend. Your article "How To Live Below Your Means" is ludicrous. -- Carrie G., e-mail Dear Carrie: I'm not sure you and I are defining the term "living below your means" in the same way. What it means to me is that you do not feel entitled to live a lifestyle that you can- not afford with the money you earn. Living beyond your means involves borrow- ing your way into debt. If you reread the article, I think you'll find we agree more than we disagree. Do you have a question for Mary? E-mail her at mary@everydaycheapskate.com, or write to Everyday Cheapskate, P.O. Box 2135, Paramount, CA 90723. ver who he has had “prob- lems with in the past” Tuesday morning on Jack- son Street. •A mother reportedly locked her child in her vehi- cle Tuesday afternoon on Main Street and had to call CalFire to help her open the car again. Collision A 17-year-old Redding girl and a 56-year-old Chico woman were taken to St. Elizabeth following a collision at 5:55 p.m. Tuesday in the 1300 block of Highway 99E. The girl was driving south with Charlene Reid about 100 feet behind her, both about 55mph, when the girl took her attention off the road to use her cell phone. The girl slowed her vehicle and drove to the right hand shoulder to make a u-turn, misjudged the distance Reid was behind her and pulled out directly in front of Reid, who tried to avoid the col- lision but was unable to do so. Both vehicles received major damage. nails, a metallic taste in the mouth, hair loss and dry mouth. Treatment includes apple-cider vinegar or lido- caine mouthwashes, anti- histamines, cyclosporin or other immune-suppressing medications, topical or oral corticosteroids, topical oint- ments or creams and ultra- violet-light therapy. The prognosis is good Crash • Kenneth White, 52, of Red Bluff was flown to Enloe Medical Center in Chico following a crash at 10:30 p.m. in the 9800 block of 99W. White was driving south on 99W at a high rate of speed when he failed to negotiate a right hand curve, allowing his vehicle to veer off the east road edge. The vehicle spun and hit a large oak tree and became airborne and com- ing to rest on its roof, par- tially ejecting White, who was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. Fires • A fire early Wednesday at the Fire Mountain Lodge on Hwy. 36E is being con- sidered a total loss. • A residential structure fire was reported at 10:15 a.m. Wednesday in the 18100 block of Paskenta Road. CalFire arrived on scene at 10:35 p.m. and the first unit on scene reported the home was fully involved. The fire was con- tained at 11:04 a.m. Lichen planus diagnosis rises questions in that lichen planus isn’t generally harmful and should get better with treat- ment. It commonly clears up within 18 months, but can come and go for years. One possible complication that can occur is oral can- cer. Therefore, it is extremely important you remain in contact with your dentist for examina- tion on a regular basis.
