Crude prices slumped on Monday, pulled down by concerns over debt problems in the United States, the world's biggest oil-consuming nation, analysts said.
New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in August, shed $2.10 to $95.14 a barrel.
Brent North Sea crude for September delivery lost $1.45 to $115.81 a barrel in late London deals.
A political impasse in the United States over its debt crisis continued to hang over crude oil prices, said Victor Shum, a senior analyst at Purvin and Gertz energy consultants.
"The debt situation in the US is bearish for the oil market. The concern there has got to do with whether the Obama administration and Republican party will agree to move the US debt ceiling," he added.
On Sunday, a bipartisan Senate plan took shape to allow US President Barack Obama to avert a potentially catastrophic debt default in return for $1.5 trillion in spending cuts over a decade.
With two weeks to go until what Obama has termed economic "Armageddon", the opposing Senate leaders, Mitch McConnell of the Republicans and Harry Reid of the Democrats, were working on a complex path out of the crisis.
But traders were sceptical on the prospects of a near-term political resolution after five straight days of testy talks between the White House and congressional leaders ended Thursday with no deal in sight.
Oil prices had meanwhile risen on Friday after the European Union released the results of closely watched bank stress tests, revealing that its banks had fared better than expected.
The end-of-week rally made up some ground that had been lost on Thursday, when New York crude prices dove by $2.36.

Mr. BIDEN. Mr. President, it is with tremendous pride that I rise today to commemorate that after 213 years, Delaware's original copy of Bill of Rights ratified in 1790, is returning home.
This is a story steeped in history, mixed with some modern-day political negotiations-worth celebrating.
While Delaware holds the distinction as the first State to ratify the Constitution, on December 7, 1787, it was the sixth State to ratify the Bill of Rights-on January 28, 1790. The two signors of this historic document were Jehu Davis and George Mitchell. And they were quite efficient. Instead of drafting a separate letter, as most States did, to notify Congress of Delaware's ratification of the Bill of Rights, they simply penned their signatures on the Bill of Rights document and returned it whole cloth to Congress. Thus, Delaware had no copy of what Davis and Mitchell signed.
The National Archives, to its immense credit, conserved Delaware's original copy of the Bill of Rights in pristine condition for more than two centuries. However, two years ago Delaware's Public Archives, State House Majority Leader Wayne Smith, and the Delaware General Assembly asked the congressional delegation to help negotiate the return of our Bill of Rights document. We all agreed that this historic document should be displayed for all to see in Delaware, not stored in the basement of the National Archives in Washington, DC.
The National Archives is, justifiably, quite protective of its documents. Suffice to say that it took ten months of negotiations, meetings, letters and conference calls to come to terms on an agreement that returns this document to Delaware, while retaining the National Archives legal and preservation rights to it.
Starting this December 7, on my State's 216th birthday, its original Bill of Rights will be on display for all to see. It will be on view at our new, state-of-the-art Public Archives Building in Dover, DE. And that is exactly where this document belongs-on public display where school students and adults alike can appreciate its historic significance.
We should all be proud of this accomplishment because it's part of our history. The Bill of Rights is a symbol of who we are and the values we hold dear. It ties us to our past and reminds us of those principles that will guide us into the future.


text: Home > Nation Cops to face 13 counts of murder in Atimonan shooting By Edu Punay, Philippine Star Posted at Feb 07 2013 01:29 PM | Updated as of Feb 08 2013 01:11 AM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn MANILA, Philippines - The killing was premeditated, and members of a police-military team will face 13 counts of murder. This is the gist of the report submitted yesterday by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to Justice Secretary Lilia de Lima on the deaths of 13 men in Atimonan, Quezon last Jan. 6. The team was led by police Superintendent Hansel Marantan, who is still recuperating from a wound in a hospital. It was not clear if murder charges were also recommended against Chief Superintendent James Melad, who was sacked as regional police commander of the Calabarzon after the shooting. Malacañang has said Melad gave the green light for the operation that ostensibly targeted one of the 13 fatalities, alleged jueteng lord Vic Siman. De Lima returned the report to the NBI yesterday for additional attachments. NBI Director Nonnatus Rojas submitted the report to the justice chief behind closed doors. Around 30 minutes later, Rojas stepped out of De Lima's office still carrying the five-inch-thick report. He clarified De Lima did not return the report for revisions. "The main report is already completed. We just need to attach some more annexes," he said as he refused to discuss their findings with reporters. De Lima said she expects the President to discuss the NBI findings with her for clarifications or clearance before making the report public. Meanwhile, doctors at the PNP-General Hospital observed that Marantan's recovery from the wound he sustained during the incident was slow. Dr. Martin Sison recommended that Marantan undergo electromyogram nerve conduction velocity to determine if he has suffered nerve damage. Rojas said they would resubmit the report this morning before it is forwarded to the Palace for official announcement. A source privy to the investigation, however, confirmed to The STAR that there was ample basis to file 13 counts of murder against Marantan and his team. The source said the probers were able to establish that the killing was premeditated. However, the insider refused to confirm whether the level of liability would reach the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC). "The report is just recommendatory. The Palace has discretion to accept or reject it," the source said. The NBI has summoned 12 ranking police and military officials, including Melad. However, it was not confirmed if Melad is among those recommended charged for the incident. Chief Superintendent Ma. Angela Vidal, director of the PNP Health Service, said Marantan underwent debridement and closure of his wound on the left arm on Tuesday. Vidal said that Marantan's electromyogram would be undertaken at the St. Luke's Medical Center, with his private physician. She said the process would only take a few hours. In the absence of any court case, the official said they would still seek approval from PNP chief Director General Alan Purisima before Marantan could be taken out of the PNP General Hospital. Vidal said the police officer could not also walk on his own and is always assisted by his father due to his wounds in both legs. She said Marantan continues to undergo therapy and needs to stay in the hospital for another two weeks.- with Cecille Suerte Felipe, Sandy Araneta Share Save Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Read More: PNP nbi Leila de Lima Quezon atimonan Hansel Marantan /business/11/24/17/robinsons-land-eyes-p20-billion-in-stock-rights-offer/news/11/24/17/suspek-sa-budol-budol-sa-dating-ofw-timbog/entertainment/11/24/17/boy-or-girl-saab-magalona-is-expecting-both/entertainment/11/24/17/zanjoe-marudo-back-in-ph-after-iemmys/entertainment/11/24/17/is-toni-replacing-luis-as-host-of-pilipinas-got-talent

There are a few infallible truths of the internet: 1.) Rule 34 and 2.) If there is a rumor to be started, no matter how impossible, the internet will make it happen. So it didn't surprise me much when I heard rumblings, via Cinema Blend, that James Bond classic Dr. No might be getting the 3D treatment.
(Author's note: I initially read it as "Dr. Who" when glancing at the title and almost fell off the couch in excitement.)
(Author's note...uh, again: Yes, I write from my couch. I'm professional like that.)
First up, the Taiwanese release of the Blu-Ray, which Bleeding Cool reports not only has the standard 2D fare, but some 3D conversation as well. Moviefone also has a link to an IMAX version of the first of the 23 current James Bond flicks. Granted, that's literally it - there are no other details, such as release date or official poster.
It would be somewhat strange for Dr. No, as the first and oldest of all the James Bond films, to be converted to 3D, seeing as how it's the least advanced regarding the technology used to film it. On the other hand, Hollywood loves nothing more than a promotional gimmick, and with the franchise turning 50 last year and the incredible success of Skyfall, it's the perfect time to capitalize on James Bond fervor.

Remove the |max_threads| argument from CreateAndSetSimpleTaskScheduler(). We want to change TaskSchedulerImpl so that it always has 4 thread pools. This is incompatible with a CreateAndSetSimpleTaskScheduler() function that takes a global maximum number of threads as argument. Therefore, this CL removes that argument. Since existing callers didn't have comments to justify how the value of this argument was chosen, they shouldn't care too much about this change. This CL also adds a |name| argument to CreateAndSetSimpleTaskScheduler() that is used to label threads and histograms associated with the created TaskScheduler.

Europe's Premier Personal Safety Service for Lone Workers 0845 0360 999
As the UK's largest wholly-owned end-to-end service provider, Skyguard has developed every part of our supply chain – from our devices to our Incident Management Centre. In order to maximise reliability we therefore selected only best-of-breed technology right across our service infrastructure.
This unique positioning not only minimises the risk of exposure for our clients' employees, but also gives us the flexibility to develop bespoke solutions and customise any element of the service for customers with specific requirements. Having our own in-house Engineers, Software Developers, Controllers and Customer Services all under one roof, improves communication time between our service elements and augments staff training and procedures. All these things lead to a quicker, more reliable response and specialised expertise; ultimately getting the right help to our customers and faster, when they need it most.
Skyguard's expertise in and control of, all parts of the service led to our IMC becoming the first in the UK to be certified to the new Lone Worker Device Services standard: BS 8484, in January 2010. This represents a huge achievement considering the standard was only approved in September 2009 and inspectors audited the service against a rigorous evaluation process including BS 5979 (Category II) and ISO 9001 for our Quality Management Systems.
Our Incident Management Centre became the first in the UK to be certified to the new Lone Worker Monitoring Service standard: BS 8484, which included the highest standard for Alarm Receiving Centres: BS 5979 (Category II).
In September 2013, Skyguard's Incident Management Centre became the first ARC in the UK to be awarded ACPO's prestigious 'Secured by Design' accreditation. This certification complements the Secured by Design approval of the MySOS personal safety device, making Skyguard the only lone worker provider in the UK to have an end-to-end accredited service.Read more

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has published interim guidelines on when it is appropriate to prosecute people for communications they send on social media. If the objective was a return to common sense policing, issuing twenty-five pages of guidance has risked complicating the situation even more.
The necessity for the communication to be 'grossly offensive' or 'obscene' for a prosecution to be made is highlighted within the guidelines. However, there remains an urgent need to reform laws that pose a serious risk to freedom of speech after several ludicrous prosecutions in recent months.
The guidelines seek to define 'grossly offensive' as cases which are more than: offensive, shocking or disturbing; satirical, iconoclastic or rude comments; the expression of unpopular or unfashionable opinion about serious or trivial matters, or banter or humour, even if distasteful to some or painful to those subjected to is. However, the bigger issue will be in attempting to interpret what constitutes 'more than'.
One seemingly sensible part of the guidelines is ensuring that the actions taken after a communication has been made is acknowledged. It is suggested that a prosecution is unlikely to be necessary and proportionate where: the communication is quickly removed or remorse is expressed; service providers remove the communication or block it; the communication was not intended for a wide audience, nor was it intended to target the victim of the communication.
It is also important to recognise that the legislation, on which these guidelines are based, was designed for a completely different purpose but now allows the CPS the right to police comments made on social media. To put this into context, the Communications Act 2003 was introduced before the launch of Facebook in 2004 and Twitter in 2006.
The danger is that while these guidelines may reduce the number of prosecutions, arrests will continue and only those with the stomach to take a case to court will escape without the long-term handicap of a criminal record. Too frequently we are seeing people being offended on behalf of others and the legal system should not allow itself to be dictated by mob rule. It is time that the police focus on bringing to justice those who seek harm, not those who cause offence.

General Feedback area for RBAC Editor
I used your RBAC Editor. It is really good. It solved most of my problems that I usually does it through cmdlet. But there are few things that I am still not able to do it using this editor for example . Not able to create " New-RoleAssignmentPolicy
" etc. Overall this product is awesome (Y)
Hi atifbaig; Thank you very much for your comment. It's good to know that tool is useful for you - I'll continue improving the tool and now after your request adding "role assignment" capability is my fist priority :) Please check project frequently for
future releases..
Hi candede
Did you work further on that Gui ?
It's very useful :)
I wished toknow if you planned to add an offline feature : instead of executing a command each time you check or uncheck some role or some action, you queue it, and allow us to apply everything once done (and also export the whole commands..) ?
Hi sacker,
I didnt do much with the tool after the last update. I started to code on things that introduced with SP1 (like Database Scopes) but nothing is complete yet. I will start to work on the tool again; as I noticed I didnt do anything on it for
a very very long time. I'm planning to add audit management; and I will consider to make the offline feature you suggested; can you please explain more about what benefits may come from such a feature or in what scenario this may be useful?
thanks for your feedback.. cheers
Hi Candede
The "offline" feature i mean :
- would be useful to reproduce the configuration steps in many different organizations
- Would improve the overall speed of your tool : if i'm not wrong, as you click on the actions (check or uncheck the cmdlets), ech time you launch the adequate powershell cmdlet. Someone configuring large RBAC settings checks and unchecks many things. If
piping all the "validated" actions into a final Cmdlet Script to execute, I think it would be faster to use (and easy to reproduce, like i mentinonned before).
I think these are very good suggestions; especially being able to reproduce the configuration steps in many different organizations would be excellent. I can implement this on a import/export basis; - I have to work on it before deciding how to implement.
I suppose second one needs an "Apply" button; so that you can check/uncheck things in a row and hit "Apply" button to run necessary cmdlets; to be honest from the beginning I avoided this in design of the tool as it may require to validate things
to build the cmdlet. I always wanted the validation to occur in Powershell and handled by Powershell but it may be implemented in some screens without hurting my design. I'll also work on it to see what can be done.
Again thanks for your feedbacks..cheers

Philadelphia Flyers general manager Bob Clarke called it "a potential nightmare for a lot of clubs."
Agent Mark Guy said it could be "a real logjam" and "probably won't look like anything that has happened before."
Said one scout about juggling all his reports: "Everybody's job is getting more complicated, so ours had to, I guess."
They're all talking about the NHL draft.
You'd be tempted to say "the 2005 NHL draft," but no one can say with any certainty that it will even take place this year. In March, the league canceled the festivities slated for June in Ottawa but has yet to announce a contingency plan. League officials have gone on the record with a guarantee that an entry draft will take place prior to taking the padlocks off NHL locker rooms, but in the absence of collective agreement, who knows?
"It could and should be this year," Clarke says. "But could it be canceled completely and not happen until [June 2006]? I don't think that you can rule anything out at this point."
While nobody knows exactly what the league will look like when it reopens for business, team executives, agents and players have some idea of what they're up against with the next draft and it ain't pretty.
Selection order is a contentious issue, thanks to major junior phenom Sidney Crosby's status as the prize. A few league sources said the current working model borrows equally from the bingo hall and the MIT math department every team in the league would get at least one ping-pong ball in the tumbler, while the number of balls each team receives would be determined by a complicated formula that would factor in results over the last several seasons.
Another prickly issue is the 2003 draft. That's right, 2003. Under the last collective agreement, junior players drafted at age 18 but not signed by June 1 of the second year following their selection reentered the draft. Now, with the NHL prohibiting teams from signing any players during the lockout, more quality prospects than ever could be available in the next go-around.
"In a normal year, there'd be 10, maybe 15, reentries of any real significance," Guy says. "But this year, right now, with the NHL embargo on signing players, there are less than 60 players signed out of the 2003 draft. Even if there's a window for teams to sign the 2003 draftees before the next draft, you could be looking at dozens of players reentering."
The first four players selected in 2003 already are locked up and have put in time in the NHL: goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury of the Pittsburgh Penguins, and forwards Eric Staal of the Carolina Hurricanes, Nathan Horton of the Florida Panthers and Nikolai Zherdev of the Columbus Blue Jackets. Some other prominent juniors also signed with their draft clubs before the embargo, including Red Deer Rebels defenseman Dion Phaneuf (Calgary Flames).
But other well-known juniors remain unsigned, including Minnesota Wild draftee Patrick O'Sullivan, a center with the Mississauga Ice Dogs of the Ontario Hockey League and the U.S. under-20 team, and Edmonton Oilers first-rounder Marc-Antoine Pouliot, Crosby's linemate with the Rimouski Oceanic.
Two of the most prominent names among the unsigned 2003 draftees are unlikely to reenter: forwards Jeff Carter and Mike Richards.
Both players were selected by the Flyers in the first round, Carter was picked 11th, Richards 24th. Both players are two-time members of Canada's world junior team. In Grand Forks, N.D., in January, Carter made the tournament's first all-star team and Richards captained the squad to the gold medal.
After their junior teams were eliminated in the Ontario Hockey League playoffs last month, Carter and Richards signed American Hockey League contracts and joined the Philadelphia Phantoms, the Flyers' affiliate. The Phantoms advanced to the conference finals with Carter as their leading postseason scorer. The consensus among scouts is that Carter and Richards both could have stepped into the NHL if arenas hadn't gone dark last fall.
Clarke says there's no way he'll allow his organization's two best prospects to fall back into the draft.
"They're both high priorities for us," Clarke said. "I think that they want to play for us and we definitely want them. They're going to get the cap whatever the next [collective agreement] allows for and there won't be that many details to iron out."
But Clarke says things will not be so clear-cut for other organizations and their 2003 draftees.
"Whenever we [get] back to business, every GM is going to have a lot of paper on his desk and a lot of contracts to do veterans and juniors," he says. "How many of [the 2003 draftees] can get signed really depends on how much time the teams have and how much the GMs have to work with.
"Nobody knows how that's going to play out. I don't know that we won't have one draft next year [2006] that would include all the kids who'd normally be drafted from two [draft classes] plus the unsigned kids from 2003 [and 2004]. All I know is that even if we're just dealing with the reentering kids and the ones who'd be eligible [as 18-year-olds] in 2005, there are going to be so many players that some good ones will fall through the cracks and get left behind."
Another Eastern Conference GM described a "four-in-one" draft in 2006 as "unlikely." The GM did admit, however, that a hastily pieced-together draft before the NHL relaunch would be "a train wreck."
"We're going to be on the clock and up all night with our calculators just to get our veterans signed up," the GM said. "The last thing we'll get around to is kids from a previous draft. If [negotiations] aren't done quickly, a lot of teams will probably just let players re-enter and be subject to the terms of the next collective agreement."
One particularly contentious scenario would have a 2003 draftee, without a draft to re-enter, challenging the expired CBA clause in court in order to be declared a free agent.
Said one agent: "There aren't any rumbles out there now about who might do that, but it's not likely to be one of the first or second-rounders [from 2003]. If there's a challenge, it would be more likely to come from the later rounds, [from] a player who probably played better than projected ... and would be hurt most by a crowded draft."
One player who fits that profile is Brad Richardson, a forward with the Owen Sound Attack of the OHL and a fifth-round draft choice (163rd overall) by the Colorado Avalanche in 2003.
"Richardson played like a first-rounder this year," one Western Conference scout said. "He might be hurt in the draft by the numbers of players re-entering if he's not taken as high up, that would hurt him as far as a bonus and salary and it would affect what he could make for a good chunk of his career. I'm not saying that [Richardson] would go to court but he's the type of player who'd really be hurt with the scenario we're looking at."

Pittsburgh airport passenger traffic up
High fuel prices and mixed signals on the economy aren't grounding growth at Pittsburgh International Airport.
Passenger traffic rose 2 percent in April compared to a year ago and marked the 13th straight month of growth, the Allegheny County Airport Authority said Friday. There were 680,604 passengers for the month. Nine airlines saw gains in passenger traffic; three others were down.
Authority executive director/CEO Bradley D. Penrod said Friday that the airline industry is recovering and both business and leisure passengers are coming back even though fuel prices are climbing. Pittsburgh International Airport's traffic is up 6 percent compared to 2010 with 2.5 million passengers through the end of April, the authority said.
"Airfares are going up, but people are still flying," Penrod said. Airline loads flying in and out of Pittsburgh are over 80 percent, which is a good sign for the airlines.
He said Pittsburgh International Airport has also benefited from lower fares than competing airports, which has drawn travelers from eastern and northeastern Ohio who have been attracted by a marketing push this spring to turn them to Pittsburgh International Airport instead of Cleveland's Hopkins International Airport.
Penrod said future bookings bode well for Pittsburgh going into the normally busy summer months. Penrod said that he didn't believe mixed economic news or nearly $4-a-gallon gasoline prices would mean fewer people traveling through Pittsburgh International Airport. He pointed to lines at the check-in counters and ahead of the TSA checkpoints Friday morning as evidence.
Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV) and American Airlines (NYSE: AMR) led April's growth at Pittsburgh International Airport. American's traffic jumped 26 percent, or 10,000 passengers, while Southwest had a 9 percent increase, or nearly 11,000 passengers, in April. Southwest, which this week added service between Pittsburgh and Denver, has 25 flights per day and is second only to USAirways (NYSE: LCC) in traffic in 2011.
US Airways' passenger traffic fell 6 percent to 163,268 in April, but it was still the top airline at Pittsburgh International Airport. So far in 2011, US Airways is up just under 2 percent. Frontier saw a steep decline in passengers from 6,266 in April 2010 to 3,592 in April 2011. AirTran, now part of Southwest Airlines, was down slightly.
Myrtle Beach Direct Air, a smaller airline that serves the South Carolina beach and golf destination, saw a 22 percent jump in traffic to 2,151 passengers in April. Air Canada, which flies from Pittsburgh to Toronto on Dash-8 turboprops through its Jazz regional airline subsidiary, saw traffic increase 24 percent to 3,161 for April compared to a year ago. JetBlue Airways (Nasdaq JBLU), Continental (NYSE: UAL), United (NYSE: UAL), SkyWest (Nasdaq: SKYW) and Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) were also up.

PLEASANT HILL — The SS Star Quest 2013 party cruise ship and its 50-plus crew is readying to set sail Saturday from the Diablo Valley College Performing Arts Theatre stage.
"All aboard!" calls out former Pleasant Hill Police Chief Jim Nunes, captain of the ship and producer. "Attention party staff. Meet me on the main deck."
One week before final technical and full dress rehearsal, cast members from ages 4-17 were running through their songs and dance routines under the keen direction of Lori Tassano.
This year's show features 25 solo acts, including violin and piano recitals, ballet, tap, jazz, singing and magic woven together with party themes that include flappers from the Roaring '20s, Elvis and rock 'n' roll of the '50s, and Mardi Gras.
"We are going to do the whole thing without script," Tassano says, as the eager crew members scramble to find their spots on the makeshift stage at the Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District's Winslow Center.
This year is the 21st season for the annual youth talent show sponsored by Rotary Club of Pleasant Hill, and it has the youngest cast since it began. About 12 regular performers graduated from high school and retired from the show.
"I think we only have two performers this year over 15 years old," said Nunes, creator of the local youth talent show. "Our youngest is a 4-year-old in a group of six."
"This is the first group I joined," said College Park senior Kimberly Bueno, 17, who has been performing in the show for eight years. This will be her curtain call.
College Park students Christian McCooey, 17, a junior, plans on returning again next year, while Megan Minneboo, 16, is in her first Star Quest show, though she has been playing the piano since she was 5.
Star Quest is open to students in grades K-12. Performers must reside within the boundaries of the Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District or attend school in Pleasant Hill.
"This year we had a really good turnout for auditions," said Tassano, noting there were about 50 selected for the show.
"It's 25 more than we like to have," said Nunes. "But wanted to make sure we included everyone we could."
Sequoia Middle School honor student Harmony Nichols, 13, who joined the show when she was 5, is returning again this year.
"Once I saw the show, I wanted to be in it," Harmony said. "I've been in it ever since. I love being on stage being able to sing or dance."
Along with her performances, she is helping dance choreographer and Rotarian Anne Baker coach the new cast members.
"The hardest part is probably the night before when we are doing tech, thinking it will never come together," said Nichols. "But it all works out."
Tassano prepares to rehearse the next act.
Caitlin Stone, 7, a student at Strandwood Elementary, takes her place.
"I wanted to do Star Quest because I love dancing and I like singing," Caitlin said.
Her sisters, Lauren, 9, also a Strandwood student, and Emily, 13, who attends Pleasant Hill Middle, are also in the show.
"The hardest part is having to remember a routine and having a straight face," said Lauren.
Emily intends to continue performing after she leaves Star Quest.
"I definitely want to continue singing," she said. "If I have the opportunity to do it professionally I will. If that doesn't happen, I'll still continue it."
Along with the largest cast, this year's show is one of the most elaborate, starting with a giant cruise ship for the opening number and "Golden Gates" for the closing act.
What: Star Quest youth talent show — Cruising with the Stars
When: 7 p.m. Saturday, April 20, with reception at 6 p.m.; also 2 p.m. Sunday, April 21, with reception at 1 p.m.
Where: DVC Performing Arts Theatre, 321 Golf Club Road, Pleasant Hill
Tickets: $12 ($5 under 18) in advance; $15 ($10 under 18) at the door; tickets available at Pleasant Hill Recreation and Park District office, 147 Gregory Lane; or Pleasant Hill Police Department, 330 Civic Drive
Information: 925-689-2249

Adventure, Wildlife & Community Volunteering
Adventure, Wildlife & Community Volunteering
Program Cost - ZAR 14,800
The real adventures begin when heading north from the metropolitan buzz of Durban into the Zulu Kingdom's heartland. Evoking images of wild landscapes and tribal rhythms, this beautiful drive offers a different face of South Africa, where fine coastline, mist-clad hills and traditional settlements are in contrast to the ordered suburban developments around Durban. Dominated by the Zulu tribal group, the region offers fascinating historical and contemporary insights into one of the country's most enigmatic and best-known cultures. However, while the name Zulu (which means Heaven) aptly describes the rolling expanses that dominate the landscape, it doesn't tell the whole story. Intense poverty and all the social problems that come with that are still commonplace, and much of the population struggles in a hand-to-mouth existence. Explore off the main roads and this becomes glaringly obvious.
On this community volunteering programme, you will bring much needed English skills to an impoverished remote rural community. The camp is based in the Zululand District of KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. This region is the heart of the Zulu nation, which is the most significant tribal group in South Africa. Our base during this 3-week program is on a community (tribal) owned game reserve and our daily work takes place in rural schools surrounding the reserve.
Somkhanda Game Reserve is a 12,000ha community owned area that is home to endangered rhino, leopard, buffalo and African wild dog as well as giraffe, zebra and the complete spectrum of antelope species that naturally occur in this area.
The reserve is dedicated to providing a wide range of meaningful experience to travellers that provide a direct benefit and positive impact on the biodiversity of this environment and the local Zulu community.
Thursday to Saturday - Arrival & Orientation:
Volunteers need to arrive by own arrangement at Durban's King Shaka International Airport. A local representative will meet each person off their flight and when the last has come you will be transferred to our first base - LIV Village just outside Durban.
For the first two days, you will be at LIV and will have the opportunity to get fully involved in everyday life in the Village, helping with the daily programmes and making a difference in the lives of the orphans through teaching, sport and other skills.
Accommodation: "The Barracks" - Volunteer shared accommodation
Meal Basis: Full Board
Week One:
Sunday to Friday
Somkhanda & Cotlands School
On Sunday after breakfast, you will be driven 400km north to a remote part of the Zululand region of KwaZulu-Natal and Somkhanda Game Reserve - your base for the next three weeks.
From Monday to Friday you will be teaching English at a rural school in the nearby Zulu community, helping with sports and participating in other school activities from 09:00 to 13:00 each day. After serving lunch to the students, you will return to Somkhanda where you will have some time off before enjoying an afternoon game drive on the reserve.
Accommodation: Somkhanda Tented Student Camp
Meal Basis: Full Board
Week Two:
Monday to Thursday - Zonyama Community
This week you will experience an authentic cultural immersion with the local Zonyama community, neighbouring Somkhanda Game Reserve. Like most rural homesteads and villages in this region, there is no electricity and running water. You will be accommodated in traditional huts which are grouped together and make up a 'musi' or homestead.
Community Volunteers will spend Mornings teaching English and helping with sports activities at the local Makoti School and afternoons are free to experience community life. To get the most out of this experience, you will be accompanied by community 'chaperones' at all times who will act as your interpreters and cultural facilitators. Nothing is contrived or set-up for "tourists" so the social and cultural experiences are entirely dependent on what is happening in the community at the time as the local people go about their daily routines.
Accommodation: Traditional Zulu Home Stay
Meal Basis: Full Board
Week 3:
This week will follow the same programme as the first week with trips daily to Cotlands School returning to Somkhanda after lunch a wildlife activity on the reserve.

Owned by the Tembe Tribal community and managed by KZN Wildlife – a parastatal conservation organization, it boasts the full complement of the Big Five – elephant, lion, leopard, black and white rhino and buffalo – as well as over 340 bird species and many other mammal species right down to the tiny Suni, one of the smallest antelope in Southern Africa.
Accommodation: Royal Thonga Camp
Meal Basis: Full Board
On Saturday after an early game drive and lunch, you will depart for Kosi Bay, which lies in the northernmost part of the KwaZulu-Natal coast, close to the border of Mozambique. It is one of the most remote, yet beautiful places in the country. It is not a bay at all but a complex estuarine ecosystem comprising of four interlinked lakes fed by two rivers. The flora on this part of the coast is fantastically rich and varied, and some of the most diverse mangrove swamps can be found here, as well as wild figs and raffia palms.
Two days in this area will give you time to explore the swamps, dunes and estuary. Optional activities include snorkelling, fish trap tour, hiking and kayak safaris. You return to Somkhanda in time for dinner

Indian navy to deploy Russian nuclear submarine
Indian navy to deploy Russian nuclear submarine
India is to formally commission a nuclear submarine into its navy, joining an elite group of nations with similar capabilities.
The $1bn (£630m) Russian-built Nerpa has been leased by the Indian navy for the next 10 years. It was handed over to India in eastern Russia in January.
India previously had a Soviet submarine but decommissioned it in 1991.
It now rejoins China, Russia, the US, the UK and France as an operator of underwater nuclear vessels.
India is also developing its own nuclear-powered submarine which is expected to be ready by the end of this year.'Pride of Indian navy'
The 8,140-tonne Akula II submarine, the K-152 Nerpa, has been renamed by India as the INS Chakra II.
The submarine will be formally commissioned into the navy by the country's Defence Minister, AK Antony, at a ceremony in Vishakhapatnam, on India's east coast off the Bay of Bengal on Wednesday morning.
The submarine set sail from the Russian port of Vladivostok 40 days ago and is now set to become the pride of the Indian navy, the BBC's Sanjoy Majumder reports from Vishakhapatnam.
In keeping with international non-proliferation treaties, the submarine will not be equipped with nuclear weapons. It will only carry cruise missiles.
India had previously leased a nuclear submarine from the Russians in the late 1980s which was used to train its naval personnel.
The INS Chakra will, however, be operational and is expected to give the Indian navy an added advantage, our correspondent says.
It was due to be handed over to Delhi in 2009 but was delayed because of problems during testing.
In November 2008, at least 20 people died in an accident on the Nerpa when a fire extinguishing system was activated by mistake.
India is also building an indigenous nuclear submarine, the Arihant, which is expected to join the navy some time next year.
Russia is also expected to help India train the Arihant's crew.
India and Russia are long-time allies and Russia supplies 70% of India's military hardware.

SAN ANTONIO {AP} The name of Cesar Chavez will be added to a major street under a compromise worked out with Mayor Howard Peak by supporters of the late Mexican-American farm labor leader.
Chavez's name will be affixed to existing street signs along 14 miles of Commerce Street, creating "Cesar Chavez Memorial Way."
The deal is expected to be OK'd by the San Antonio City Council in the coming weeks, said Councilman Rick Vasquez, who was instrumental in brokering the agreement.
Controversy swirled for months over whether a street or a public facility, such as the airport, should be named for Chavez.
"Cesar Chavez always said that controversy could be a good thing. ... Our perseverance paid off," said local labor leader Martinez as he celebrated Tuesday.
A March proposal to name San Antonio International Airport in honor of Chavez was supported by a majority of council members at first.
But after the idea sparked furious community debate, Peak called the proposal "divisive" and killed the plan.
Instead, the mayor floated the possibility of renaming Durango Boulevard for Chavez.
Coordinadora 2000, which presented the City Council with 2,800 signatures in January favoring naming Commerce Street after Chavez, withheld its support of the Durango deal.
Chavez became involved in union organizing in northern California in the late 1950s and formed the National Farmworkers Association in 1962.
He demanded better wages, housing and safe working conditions for farm workers, who were mostly Hispanics. His struggle included personal hunger strikes and 100-mile marches. He garnered support from the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and U.S. Sen. Robert F. Kennedy.
Chavez was president of the United Farmworkers of America, AFL-CIO, when he died in 1993.

Essay topics: Many people believe that educational standards have declined in recent times, particularly in the areas of literacy and numeracy.
Discuss the causes of this problem and offer some possible solutions to it.
In recent years, there is a growing recognition that the basic abilities to read, write and do mathematics have plunged. There is a worldwide worry concerning this trend and different people have various ideas about the major causes of these alterations. This essay will elaborate on the most significant reasons for this unprecedented trend and offer some potential solutions.
At first it is crucial to note that relevant reason for substantial drop in numeracy and literacy might be rooted in the boom of modern technologies and subsequent opportunities brought by them. Undeniably, technology has been facing radical changes and revolutionized to stage where human being are able to use computers for writing and calculating. In such areas, apparently, it is hardly ever feasible to imagine our lives without computer facilities in the status quo. Promoting usage of recently introduced technologies has also contributed to sliding away of numeracy especially when children are involved. Another remarkable cause might be demise of interest in learning and vanishing of interest and desire for it. This is especially because children are more addicted to computer games rather than learning which they believe to be less relevant and fascinating.
While searching for solutions, one should not ignore the major contributor for declining numeracy and literacy skills. As technological advances play vital role here, imposing restraints permanent usage high-tech should be accomplished especially among young people. Meanwhile, government is required to control education standards by regular tests and reignite people's enthusiasm in learning.
In the light of these facts, one can conclude that plunge in numeracy and literacy skills are directly associated with technological revolution. Resolving those problems can be achieved by controlling permanent usage of computers and calculators notably among young age groups.

Do You Have The Proper Automobile Insurance To Suit Your Needs?
Everybody that owns a vehicle has to carry vehicle insurance. finding, purchasing and But the appropriate vehicle insurance can be difficult, though But, finding and buying The real key move to make is to find a plan that fits your needs but fails to hurt your wallet. Just before shopping for automobile insurance, you ought to identify exactly which forms of coverage you will want inside your insurance plan. Below are a few helpful suggestions towards figuring out just how much coverage you'll need and how to find the correct policy for you.
Most states have laws that require liability insurance when you drive. You are responsible for knowing what kind of the regulations regarding minimum insurance coverage in your state. You will break the law if you drive uninsured.
When it comes to insurance to get a young driver, ensure that it is recognized to the insurance provider that they may only gain access to one car. This will cut the rates considerably, specifically if the least valuable and safest car is chosen. Having multiple cars can be a blessing for convenience, but once rates are thought, it really is a bad idea.
Many people believe that insurance rates go down automatically for young driver reaches the age of 25.
To spend less on vehicle insurance, consider setting a better deductible of what you would pay out of pocket, in case of a car accident. The insurer prices policies based upon anything they expect to pay out if one makes claims and reducing that amount, means lower premiums for yourself.
It is not a good idea make your insurance premium payments on a monthly installments. Your insurance company may add three to five dollars to your bill. These little sums add up over the year. Adding another payment to your monthly pile can also turn into a nuisance. The fewer payments you have to worry about, the more money you save.
To save money on auto insurance, be sure to take your children from your policy once they've moved out alone. You could possibly obtain a discount by way of a distant student credit if they are still at college. This can apply as soon as your child is attending school a definite distance from home.
The best advice in getting auto insurance is to keep your driving history. A car accident will quickly increase your rates faster than anything else. Know your limits when driving, and avoid risks that could cause accidents.
You won't want to drive around with the proof of a fender bender if you have a shiny new car. So your vehicle insurance on a new car should include collision insurance also. This way, your car will continue to be looking great longer. However, do you care about that fender bender if you're driving a well used beater? Since states only need insurance, and also, since collision is costly, once your car grows to the "I don't care much the actual way it looks, exactly how it drives" stage, drop the collision and your vehicle insurance payment will go down dramatically.
Know the details of your policy; including, what's the level of coverage and what kind of limitations you'll face, are a few good questions to ask.
In terms of saving some serious funds on your car insurance, it may help tremendously when you know and understand the sorts of coverage available. Spend some time to find out about the various kinds of coverage, and learn what your state requires of you. There might be some big savings in it for yourself.
Don't buy your teen a car of his own. Adding them to your preexisting insurance plan will be much cheaper than insuring him or her separately. Some companies offer discounts for students that get good grades.
Remember that your coverage may pertain to the operator named in the policy itself, when you shop for auto insurance. In the event the friend gets in a car accident, the insurance will not likely pay, many people will let friends drive their car and. You could potentially purchase coverage that covers additional people when you have people driving your automobile consistently. However, this comes at the higher price.
You really should take this as it can cost you a lot more in insurance premiums. It also give you protection in the horrible situation of an uninsured driver hitting your car.
Or just got married, call your insurance provider for a discount, if you're about to. Drivers who definitely are married tend to drive more safely, especially when they have children in a vehicle. Insurance providers often provides you with a reduction as soon as you tie the knot, due to your better driving.
Insurance companies do not all different. If you're not satisfied with the quote you've been given, be sure to check out several competitors as they all have different prices available.
Anyone purchasing a great rate on auto insurance should investigate the availability of group or affiliate discounts. Employer groups, professional associations and other organizations commonly negotiate special rates for his or her members, which may result in significant savings. Therefore, it pays to comparison shop with these kinds of potential discounts in your mind.
Many companies provide large discounts to people who drive 7500 miles in a single year.This makes cutting your driving a wonderful way to save money.
Keep away from sports cars. Sports cars are likely to cost you plenty more to insure. Get a vehicle that is certainly not quite as high and popular profile. A larger engine also generally includes higher insurance costs. Sporty models may also be targets for theft, which increases the price of insuring them.
If you are involved in an accident and must file a claim with your insurance company, your insurance company will be easier to work with if you have the proper documentation. It is a good time to leave a camera on hand in your vehicle to be prepared for worse case scenario.
Install an alarm with your vehicle. Getting an alarm for your car can protect it from being stolen or vandalized. Additionally, it may help to lower your premiums. Verify when your car insurance provider delivers a discount to have an alarm. Ensure you inform your provider if you currently have an automobile alarm.
Consider paying your premium all at one time. There may be extra fees for paying in monthly payments.
Try to find an insurance that gives an accident forgiveness option. Your premium is not going to rise when you get into a car accident. Accident forgiveness works in particular situations: make sure you be entitled to it before requesting it. Usually, you can get accident forgiveness in case you have a good driving history.
You will be able to obtain lower car insurance rates by improving your credit score. It's amazing to think that any insurance company would check on your credit.
One of many absolute greatest factors in the price of your automobile insurance remains, unfortunately, completely outside your control, this is certainly how old you are. Nearly all companies consider people under 25 to become a greater risk and due to this you may turn out paying more. Remember, especially while you are younger, to examine constantly along with your agency for discounts according to age year by year.
If you are going to change companies, be sure to pay them before switching auto insurers. Insurance companies frown upon outstanding tickets, so you want to make sure any outstanding fines are paid up. This is morally correct and it also improves your insurance premiums.
Before agreeing with it, you must find out important information about your insurance coverage. You have to know how much you are going to pay to the policy and just what it covers. There are several policies which cover very little and some that happen to be very detailed which cover a plethora of possible events.
Defensive driving classes are an excellent and easy way to reduce the cost of your insurance rates. You can inquire about these courses at driving schools. You can also find them on the web if traditional classes don't work for you.
Searching for the most economical vehicle insurance coverage you will find? You need to be certain to include all of the discounts when searching for a auto insurance policy. By way of example, do you be entitled to the safe driver discount? Does the business provide a discount for your vehicle's safety equipment? Have you been over 55? Make sure you include each of the discounts you qualify for and you will probably see a big difference in the price of your insurance.
If you want the lowest insurance rate, select a high deductible.If you have to pay a high deductible, it means you're responsible for any repairs, but it still offers protection against total losses in which you're liable.
As with any form of insurance, if you are purchasing a policy for your car, you have to have a good knowledge of what sort of coverage is right for you. In case you have adequate information, it is possible to almost certainly locate the plan that fits your needs. Follow the suggestions here to make certain that you have the sort of auto insurance that you require.

My long term career goal is to develop an independent research program to investigate autonomic regulation of urinary function in health and disease. To enhance my research training, I seek additional experience with neuroanatomical and in vivo techniques for the purpose of quantifying bladder dysfunction mediated by an alteration in autonomic control mechanisms in diabetic states. I have assembled an expert advisory committee of leading bladder researchers and clinicians to oversee my development in these areas. I have also earned a commitment from the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the University of Vermont that guarantees me access to the space and resources I will need to complete this training. This research proposal will test the hypothesis that altered ganglionic neurotransmission contributes to bladder dysfunction in diabetics. The hypothesis will be addressed by investigation of major pelvic ganglion (MPG) structure and function in murine models of diabetes. The MPG supplies efferent autonomic input to the genitourinary tract from sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. Three important questions are addressed: what are the defining characteristics of diabetic uropathy and when do they present in genetic and nongenetic mouse models of diabetes? is diabetic bladder dysfunction associated with aberrant neuronal activity within the MPG? and, what affect does diabetes have on the neurochemical and morphological profile of the MPG? Under the guidance of Dr. Margaret Vizzard (sponsor), urodynamic function will be evaluated over time in inbred mice (C57BL/6J) made diabetic with streptozotocin-treatment as well as in mice genetically predisposed to diabetes (NOD/ ShiLtJ;BKS.Cg-m+/+Leprdb/J). Timepoints associated with onset and development of diabetic uropathy will be identified. Neuronal activity will be studied in the MPG of diabetic and non-diabetic animals using intracellular microelectrode technique. A comparison of the active and passive membrane properties and the efficacy of synaptic transmission, following stimulation of ganglionic inputs, will be made. Ganglion neuroanatomy will be defined using immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy imaging techniques. Principle cholinergic and adrenergic MPG neurons that target the urinary bladder will be identified by retrograde labeling and cellular morphology will be quantified in diabetic and non-diabetics using morphometric technique. This work will provide valuable evidence as to the extent of MPG remodeling occurring with diabetic bladder dysfunction.
Currently, 20 million people are affected by diabetes in the United States: 7% of the total population. Diabetes can cause damage to nerves that are important in regulating the function of major organs including the heart, the stomach and the bladder. This project will determine which components of the nervous system are damaged by diabetes and lead to problems with urination.

We grabbed a few hours sleep after yesterdays Android landslide, and got right back into full swing in Barcelona for the first official day of Mobile World Congress 2012. While all day yesterday was spent bouncing from one venue to the next to see official press events, we got to spend a good part of the day today doing what's coolest about going to a big show like MWC -- talk one-on-one to vendors, developers, and all manner of PR people. The boys put miles on their shoe leather cruising the show floor and meeting with the exhibitors, and we get the benefit of hearing it all without the sore feet.
Hit the break, let's see what went down today.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your reply and guidance! I would love to see your work I see you are closed I will check in a few days.
The show that I did was at a church. I figured out quickly that the event was not in support of the vendors but a way to bring money in for them. The space was uncomfortable, badly lit, Announcer/DJ blaring loud and you nailed it toooo many Jewelry vendors. There were 20 of us in all and probably 70% had jewelry. Most were sitting and looked bored, but then the announcer kept screwing up our names and products and kept pushing the bar. Basically the "shoppers" got tipsy and sampled all the free samples (a baker had cookies and coffee). By the end everyone was dropping their prices by as much as 70% or buy one get on free and the vendors were trying to solicit each other! I was stunned, exhausted but not discouraged!
I make handmade gifts for babies and crocheted items. I was given a 6' table which I wrapped in beautiful silver paper. I had long rectangular canvases which I sponged in silver paint and draped my hand stitched felt mobiles over them. It wasn't the best but pretty good, I would do something similar again.
I used part of my table for hand quilled snowflakes.
I did not sit while I was there and smiled and said hello to everyone who passed by. I had many nice conversations and got lots of compliments. Although I do admit when two ladies stopped in front of my table and rested their drinks to chat, I took a break and sat for a minute (I needed a break).
I started packing up early and the announcer let everyone know it was their last chance to make a purchase from me, when I looked up the other vendors had also started to pack up. I thanked all of the people running the show and left.
I will admit that my display was not breath taking and if I had more time to plan it would have been much different (the opportunity to do the show was last minute).
I have been to many craft fairs and love the shops in the New England artist shops. Sadly I live in the NYC area and there isn't a lot of craftsy stuff going on here. One our goals in the next year or so is to make a move to New England in part for my future in the arts.
I am using this time for research and development. I will explore more shows and try again soon when I am able.
Thank you for sending me the links I will bookmark them and take your advice to prepare and learn from what others are doing.
Happy New Year!

Hey Everyone!
I am just getting started making scrabble tile pendants, and shrinky dinks. I have so many questions...
Is there a chatroom on craftster or a chatroom elsewhere that has lots of people?
I use resin for the tops or shrinky dinks and scrabble tiles...could I seal the whole tile to make it waterproof?
Are there cheaper ways to add nice looking bails to the tiles?
Has anyone made their own or know of alternative "bails" that aren't aaranku but still look nice and professional?
Where can I buy the bamboo tile mats whole from a supplier, not from ebay or etsy?
Has anyone tried printing shrinky dinks out on the regular shrinky dink paper?
I cover my tile images with packing tape so the color won't bleed into the resin.. is this necessary?
I have more questions... but this is good for now Thanks in Advance!

Hi all you wonderful WE people! :-) You can tell I am in a great mood. Tis the season to be jolly, and WE are! But it has been a tough tough year for WE. There has been a lot of waiting, and hoping and waiting, and then more waiting ... sprinkled with a lot of hard work with limited resources. However, as you all know, the WE team are a force to be reckoned with. Our small band of TV spartans have battled a great many problems and always prevailed. WE never give up. Anyway, enough of that.
Here is a few bits of news ...
WE are the most popular Twitterer on the African continent! Check it out ... http://twitterholic.com/top100/followers/bylocation/South+Africa/ If you are not already following us on Twitter, please do at http://twitter.com/wildearth WE are still asking for volunteers to join our growing army of WEtwits so if you have some time available to take a shift and inform our Twitter followers of what is going on at WE then please mail us at email@example.com
If you do have a Twitter account and if you love what WE do, please nominate WildEarth for a shorty award in the entertainment category over here: http://shortyawards.com/category/entertainment WE have a very real chance of winning this category if you all nominate us. Please give it a go, it would be our first award!
The WEarchive has grown again. Our friends over at Zaplive have put the 'seekpoints' right up front in the archive now. (Thanks to all of you that are creating such great seekpoints, and helping WE make video history.) Also, the WEarchive is now searchable by date and just a lot easier to find stuff in. There is so much more coming here ... but I don't want to let the cat out the bag. ;-) http://www.wildearth.tv/wearchive
A huge big thank you to all our Amazee members ... you are all WEangels and amazeeing! If you are not yet a member please join up here: http://www.amazee.com/christmas-dixie If WE have the highest number of members, with pics, on the 22nd Januray 2009 WE will win $5000 ... here are the current rankings:
1.Studieren Ohne Grenzen - 229 Members - 40 pics
2.Pressenger.de - das Presseportal - 218 Members - 35 pics
3.Yabonga e.V. - 194 Members - 102 pics
4.Christmas at Dixie - 187 Members - 175 pics
As you can see that while WE are sitting in fourth place in terms of number of members, WE are actually well in first place with the numbers of members with pics!! So we are doing well, but I think WE should not be to certain until WE have the highest number of members outright. Please invite everyone you know to join the project. I will be announcing the new project on the 26th December ... and you are all going to be blown away by the ambition and importance of this project. WE are going to really change lives ... its in our nature.

BUT other than making the author of the post happy, the comment doesn't give any direct benefit to you. Even if the comment is impressive and a reader clicks on the link, s/he is directed to your blogger profile. From here the reader may/may not visit your blog (and chances are further low, if you have a big list of blogs displayed on your profile page).
So here's what you have to do;
While commenting on a Blogger blog, if the blog allows 'anonymous' comments, then along with the option "Anonymous" another option gets activated, which is 'Name/URL'. Select this option and write your name along with any keyword in the "Name" field, and type your blog/blog post url in the "URL" field, like this:
Name: John @ Exam Tips
URL: www.exam-tips.blogspot.com
And in case the blog doesn't allow anonymous comments, then select the option "OpenID" and type your blog's url in the appropriate field.
The benefits you get:
Although mostly BlogSpot blogs have "nofollow" associated with the commentator's links, but some of them have "dofollow" too, so in that case the famous Google PR link juice is passed to your blog instead of your blogger profile. And sometimes Google even considers a nofollow link as a valid backlink and so your site/blog is now recognized better for a particular keyword.
Secondly as the comments remain forever in the blog, so they become a permanent passive source of traffic for your blog.

"I hope readers take away from my writing, a feeling of joy, along with a few personal questions about their faith and what they believe."
Tucson, AZ (PRWEB) December 11, 2013
As John Kaufman wraps up the 2013 promotional year for his new book, "Three Gold Coins or Too Young to Die This Rich!: A Mel Porter Dread Mystery" (published by AuthorHouse), he is gearing up for new marketing adventures for 2014.
"Three Gold Coins or Too Young to Die This Rich!" follows the adventures of two young teenagers from central Nebraska as they search for missing buried treasure. Their quest takes them across state lines and through old family history as they get involved in the twists and turns of detective work.
The novel touches on an array of topics, including the challenges of family dynamics, the intricacies of friendship and the significance of faith. In the upcoming year, Kaufman continues this theme in the book's sequel, "You're Not Dead until Somebody Finds Your Corpse!"
He will also be surprising lucky readers with free e-book copies of his first book. Kaufman will be distributing 70 BookStubs to randomly chosen readers.
Whether his fans are reading his first book or the upcoming sequel, Kaufman hopes they are both entertained and encouraged.
