LOS ANGELES (AP) -- California motorists faced another day of record-breaking gasoline prices Sunday, though relief appeared to be on the way.

In its latest update early Sunday, AAA reported that the statewide average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline was $4.655. Saturday's average of $4.6140 was the highest since June 19, 2008, when it was $4.6096.

The four-penny-per-gallon jump Sunday was less than Saturday's increase, which was 12 cents.

No less that ten Samoan patients with non-communicable diseases are taken to New Zealand every month to be operated on, at the cost of some $T150,000 a patient to the Samoan government. That is $T18 million every year.

Non-communicable diseases include obesity, heart failure, diabetes and others, which are caused primarily by diets of imported fatty foods such as turkey tails that were banned in 2007.

Other factors are smoking, drinking and salt, which can lead to obesity and loss of eyesight.
