Paul Rogers' Ten Questions on Election Night
1) Will Obama's Midwest Safety Net Hold?
The short version: If President Obama wins Ohio, Virginia or Florida, the race is basically over.
The longer version:
It takes 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. Based on months of polling, President Obama has a solid lead in 18 states, plus the District of Columbia, that account for 237 electoral votes. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney leads in 23 states with 191. In recent days, however, early voting trends and polls have shown North Carolina tilting toward Romney and Nevada leaning toward Obama.
If those trends hold, that leaves Obama with 243 and Romney with 206. What's left to decide the next president? Seven true "toss up" states: Ohio (18), Wisconsin (10), Iowa (6), New Hampshire (4), Florida (29), Colorado (9) and Virginia (13).
No Republican has won the White House without winning Ohio. And Ohio has picked the eventual winner in every presidential election since 1964.
Obama's easiest path to re-election is to win Ohio and Wisconsin, which would give him 271 electoral votes.
Florida, where Romney had a 2-point lead in the polls, is essential if Republicans are going to win the White House. If Romney captures the Sunshine State, he'll need to win Virginia, North Carolina, Ohio and one more state. Colorado would be most likely.
As you can tell, it's difficult, but not impossible for Romney to win. Obama has an easier path -- and more paths -- to 270. Many of them depend the Midwest, which is why he spent his final day campaigning Monday in Wisconsin, Ohio and Iowa. But his leads are very slim.
2) When will we know who won?
Remember the old Eric Clapton song "After Midnight?"
Count on it, TV viewers: Romney is likely to have a lead for the first few hours of the evening as he racks up electoral votes in Southern states. That will change at 8 pm Pacific time when polls in California, Oregon and Washington close. Obama is favored heavily in those three states, which make up 74 electoral votes. The outcomes of key states like Ohio, however, could drag on well past midnight.
The first polls close in Virginia at 4 pm Pacific Time. If Virginia is called early for either candidate, that's a strong sign he is having a good night. Half an hour later, at 4:30 pm, polls close in Ohio and North Carolina, followed by a large wave of key states at 5 pm, including Florida, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, where Romney has made a last minute push, but where Democrats have a 1 million voter registration edge.
Colorado and Wisconsin close at 6 pm, followed by Iowa and Nevada at 7 pm.
It's quite possible we might not know who the next president is until early Wednesday. If Ohio or Florida, which have had long lines in early voting due to Republican governors reducing polling days and hours in those states, are too close to call, the final result may not be known for days, or even weeks.
That's how long it could take for a recount in those states, or in a contested battle over late absentee votes and provisional ballots. Provisionals are votes cast on Election Day, but set aside for later confirmation, because of irregularities such as a registered voter turning up at the wrong polling place, having a different name than appears on the voter rolls, or having requested an absentee ballot but not turning it in.If the outcome is in doubt, lawyers for both sides will argue over each ballot, and there are hundreds of thousands in Ohio alone.
3) Will Same Sex Marriage Finally Make it Over the Threshold?
Voters have never approved same-sex marriage in any US state. Since 2004, six states have legalized same-sex marriage: Iowa, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Vermont, New York and Massachusetts. But there, it's only been done by state lawmakers or courts. Today, measures to legalize it are on the ballot in Maine, Maryland and Washington, and all were at or above 50 percent in the most recent polls. Meanwhile, in Minnesota, a ballot measure to ban same sex marriage trailed, 45-52 percent in the most recent poll taken last week.
4) Will the U.S. Senate Stay Blue?
Democrats currently have a 53-47 majority in the U.S. Senate. If Mitt Romney wins the presidency tonight, a Democratic Senate could bottle up much of his agenda. Republicans had high hopes earlier this year for winning the Senate majority back. Afterall, Democrats are defending 23 seats, and the GOP is defending only 10.
But a series of major missteps by Tea Party affiliated Republican candidates -- from Todd Akin in Missouri talking about "legitimate rape" to Richard Mourdock in Indiana describing how when a woman becomes pregnant during rape "it is something that God intended" -- significantly increased chances that several doomed Democrats will slip by with victories.
The final analysis? Most experts expect the Democrats keep a majority, with between 51 and 54 seats.
The races to watch:
- Massachusetts, where former Harvard professor and Democrat Elizabeth Warren held a slight lead in pre-election polls over incumbent Republican Scott Brown in the battle for Ted Kennedy's old seat.
- Virginia, where two former governors, Democrat Tim Kaine and Republican George Allen, were essentially tied in the race for retiring Democrat Jim Webb's seat.
- Montana, where wheat farmer Jon Tester, the incumbent Democrat, tries to win a second term in a red state against Republican House member Denny Rehberg.
- Nevada, in what may be the closest senate race in the nation: Incumbent Republican Dean Heller fighting a challenge from Democrat Shelley Berkly. Heller is slightly favored, but a big Obama win in the Silver State could help Berkly draw even.
5) Will California Voters Buck the Trend and Approve New Taxes?
Lots of money is on the line, along with Gov. Jerry Brown's reputation, tonight. Californians will decided whether to approve Proposition 30, a measure backed by Brown that would raise roughly $7 billion a year to fund public schools, community colleges, universities and other programs. Prop 30 would increase sales taxes by a quarter cent to 7.5 percent, and income taxes by 1 to 3 percentage points on residents with incomes over $250,000, with the higher rate imposed on the highest incomes.
But the measure has hovered around 50 percent in the polls, and has taken a hit from millions in donations by secretive Arizona groups with ties to GOP strategist Karl Rove and the billionaire Koch Brothers. Will Brown's threats to shorten the school year work? Or will voters lack of trust in Sacramento -- and angry about Democratic votes to push through a $68 billion high-speed rail project while claiming poverty -- doom the whole thing?
Meanwhile, Proposition 39, a measure by San Francisco financier Tom Steyer to close a loophole on the way out of state businesses compute their California taxes, appears headed for victory. It would raise $1 billion a year, half of it for renewable energy programs in the first five years.
Prop 38, a widespread income tax funded by millionaire heiress Molly Munger, daugter of Warren Buffett's business partner Charles Munger, to fund schools, trails badly in the polls.
This is a key moment in Brown's legacy. If his measure fails, it may dissuade the 74-year-old Democratic veteran from running for re-election in 2014. If Steyer's Prop 39 wins, it could be the launching pad for him to run for governor as a Democrat in 2014 or 2018 against Attorney General Kamala Harris, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
6) Will Bay Area residents make major changes to their water supplies?
Proposition F in San Francisco would require the city to spend $8 million on a study of draining Hetch Hetchy Reservoir in Yosemite National Park and restoring its spectacular landscape. But the water system supplies 2.5 million people in four counties -- San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara and Alameda -- and most political leaders from Sen. Dianne Feinstein on down, oppose it.
Meanwhile, voters in Santa Clara County will decide the fate of Measure B, a $548 million parcel tax to fund flood control and environmental projects at the Santa Clara Valley Water District. That measure, the costliest on Silicon Valley's ballot today, needs a two-thirds majority to pass, a heavy lift considering the district's controversies over high salaries and questionable spending during the past decade.
7) Are California House Members Going to be Booted Out?
Six months ago Democrats felt confident that they could pick up the 25 seats they need to retake the majority in the House of Representatives, ousting John Boehner as speaker. Now, however, most analysts -- and many Democratic leaders -- say that isn't likely to happen.
A Republican win could well mean that former Speaker Nancy Pelosi is removed by fellow Democrats as House Minority Leader, and that if President Obama is re-elected, much of his second term will face major roadblocks in the House.
In California, however, because of new districts, the "top-two" primary that allows candidates of the same party to face each other in the general election, and other factors, there are more competitive races than normal.
Among the top ones to watch tonight:
- Rep. Pete Stark, D-Fremont, a 40-year House veteran, could be toppled Democratic challenger Eric Swalwell.
- Rep. Lois Capps, D-, is perhaps the most endangered Democratic incumbent in California, and faces a spirited challenge from Republican former Lt. Gov. Abel Maldonado in the race to represent Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.
- Rep. Dan Lungren, R-Sacramento, is neck-and-neck with Democrat Dr. Ami Bera.
- Rep. Jerry McNerney, D-Stockton, could be knocked off by Lodi newcomer Ricky Gill, a 25-year-old Republican, because redistricting made the district more conservative.
- Rep. Jeff Denham, R-Modesto, is trying to hang on against a spirited challenge by Democrat Jose Hernandez, a former astronaut, to represent San Joaquin Valley.
- Rep. Mary Bono-Mack, R-Palm Desert, is in a close race with Democrat Raul Ruiz, an emergency room physician, in the Coachella Valley area.
- Rep. Brian Bilbray, R-Solana Beach, and Democratic challenger Scott Peters, a former San Diego city councilman, are in a close race, due to redistricting which made the San Diego-area district more Democratic.
- Finally, the battle royale between Democrats pits two incumbent Los Angeles-area congressmen whose districts were combined, Howard Berman and Brad Sherman, together in a nasty fight that in one recent event almost came to blows.
8) Election snafus
We all still remember hanging chads and Florida in 2000. Although every election has problems when machines fail, poll workers give incorrect information and other glitches surface, it's only in the very tight ones that it matters. Few Americans have the patience for another drawn-out, weeks-long legal battle. Let's hope that it doesn't come to that.
9) Will Republicans lose all power in Sacramento?
It's amazing, but in Ronald Reagan's former home state, Democrats in 2012 hold the governor's office, every state constitutional office and broad majorities in the California State Senate and Assembly. Worse for the GOP, the most recent registration totals Oct. 22 from the Secretary of State show that only 29 percent of registered voters in California are Republicans -- the lowest total in a century.
The reasons for that are myriad, from the rise in Latino population to the GOP's rigid stance on social issues like abortion which run counter to large numbers of California voters' views.
One real-life impact of the GOP's slow slide into California irrelevance, however, is the fact that Democrats needs to win only two of four competitive state Senate districts today to secure a two-thirds majority in the 40-member Senate for the first time in 47 years. That super-majority of 27 would give them the ability to raise taxes and over-ride vetoes without any way for Republicans to stop them.
Democrats also need to pick up only two seats in the Assembly for a two-thirds majority. They currently have 52 of the 80 seats there. Most political analysts say winning a super majority there is more difficult, however, given the new districts and the candidates. Republicans may even pick up an Assembly seat or two if things go their way.
10) How will America split racially?
Look around. America is changing demographically, as it has at other times in its history. It is becoming a less white, more diverse nation, driven by decades of high immigration levels and a birth rate for Latinos and some other ethnicities that is higher than the birth-rate for native-born white women.
In 1980, the lines to the polls looked a lot different than they do today: 91 percent of voters were white. By 2008, the percentage of voters who were white fell to 74 percent.
Longtime political journalists Ron Brownstein describes what he calls "the new math" of presidential elections:
"For President Obama, the winning formula can be reduced to 80/40. In 2008, Obama won a combined 80 percent of the votes of all minority voters, including not only African-Americans but also Hispanics, Asians, and others. If Obama matches that performance this year, he can squeak out a national majority with support from about 40 percent of whites-so long as minorities at least match the 26 percent of the vote they cast last time."
Mitt Romney, on the other hand, must win 61 percent of white voters, which would give him a narrow majority of total votes, as long as white voters made up 74 percent of the turnout. If they make up less than that today, or if minority groups turnout in larger numbers or percentages for Obama, the president wins re-election.
Brownstein and others say that because of the increasing diversity of the nation, this election may be the last one in which any Republican candidate can hope for a win just by securing large numbers of white voters. That could lead to a major split in the party in the coming years on issues like immigration. Republicans in California have failed to appeal to the growing Latino population, and as noted above, are nearly completely frozen out of power at all levels of state government.
Asked about the possibility of a Romney loss recently, Republican Senatory Lindsey Graham of South Carolina was blunt:
"If I hear anybody say it was because Romney wasn't conservative enough I'm going to go nuts," said Graham. "We're not losing 95 percent of African-Americans and two-thirds of Hispanics and voters under 30 because we're not being hard-ass enough."
That's a battle for another day. Tonight, follow it by watching turnout. High numbers of minority voters in urban areas is good news for Democrats. High numbers of suburban and rural white voters will keep Romney's hope alive.

|What's The Best VoIP System For SMBs?
|Source: networkingpipeline.com - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia
Making phone calls using a broadband Internet connection, more fondly known as VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), is becoming more and more popular with corporations of every size. The prospect of paying a flat fee for unlimited long-distance phone calls is appealing to every company that has struggled to balance the need to conduct business phone calls with the price of those calls. Calling plans are now available that provide unlimited minutes to any U.S. or Canadian phone number by routing the voice traffic over an existing broadband connection shared with the company's Internet access.
Many companies are also finding that installation of VoIP phones is simpler than traditional Private Branch eXchange (PBX) systems, since the desk sets can share the Ethernet cables already in place for the desktop computers. Some companies are also offering Wi-Fi-based IP phones that connect through Wi-Fi access points, either in the office or at the local Starbucks -- taking wireless phones to a completely new level.
Vonage: The Pioneer
Vonage is perhaps the pioneer in spreading the use of VoIP service. The company's primary market is the residential customer with a cable or DSL Internet connection. Vonage's residential plan includes a Digital Terminal Adapter (DTA) that connects to the user's router. The user's phone connects to the DTA, and when the phone is picked up, the user hears a normal dial tone. The dial tone is supplied by Vonage in the same way traditional carriers deliver dial tone. Vonage's Small Business Plan includes unlimited calling to the U.S. and Canada for $50 per month.
For companies that need extensions and services that are more closely identified with PBXs found in the corporate world, Vonage is not a good choice. Its Small Business Plan is based on a single line, similar to a residential line, and doesn't provide facilities for multiple extensions, call transfers, administrative functions, and the other tasks most corporate users take for granted. Two other vendors are better suited for the corporate environment.

Learn about local food at Hayloft open house
Sunday, April 7, 2013
NORTH BERWICK, Maine — The threat of government budget cuts is already changing the food habits of people in southern Maine, according to the owner of an independent farm supply store in North Berwick.
In addition, McLean will bring some hens — perhaps a few Americauna's, New Hampshire Reds or Barred Rocks — to encourage people to take up chicken farming.
To make her own dream work out, McLean has rented about a quarter of her space to another woman with a vision, Wendy Desrochement, a waitress who has long dreamed of running a furniture and antique restoration business.

Cream of Mushroom Soup
With this months No Croutons Required theme being mushrooms I went a little overboard and got way too many mushroom. Having extra mushrooms is not something that I consider to be a problem. In fact I had been wanting to try making a cream of mushroom soup for a while. I had a one pound package of wild mushrooms containing cremini, shiitake and oyster mushrooms that would be perfect for a cream of wild mushroom soup. When I made my oven roasted eggplant and mushroom miso soup I found out that roasting mushrooms adds a ton of flavour so I knew that I would have to roast the mushrooms for the cream of roasted wild mushroom soup. I immediately thought that I would have to use dill in the soup as dill is my favorite herb pairing with mushrooms, but I did not have any dill on hand... I did have some thyme and sage which I though would also go well. I used some homemade vegetable broth which added a lot of flavour. The soup came together easily and just as I was about to pour the cream into the soup I paused. I thought, I could replace the cream with miso and make this a roasted wild mushroom miso soup. I thought it over for a while and in the end I decided that I had started the mushroom soup because I wanted to try making a cream of mushroom soup. I can always try the mushroom miso soup some other time. The soup was so good! It was full of mushroom flavour and nice and creamy. I served the cream of mushroom soup with some cheesy garlic bread. I will definitely have to make this soup again though, next time I will use dill.
1 pound mushrooms (cleaned and sliced)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon thyme (chopped)
salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon oil
1 onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 teaspoon thyme (chopped)
1 teaspoon sage (chopped)
4 cups vegetable stock
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon miso (optional)
* parsley (chopped)
1. Toss the mushrooms in the olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper.
2. Roast the mushrooms in a preheated 400F oven until golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.
3. Heat the oil in a pan.
4. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Add the garlic, thyme and sage and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
6. Add the roasted mushrooms and vegetable broth and simmer for 10 minutes
7. Season with salt and pepper.
8. Remove from the heat and puree with a hand blender.
9. Mix in the heavy cream and miso.
10. Serve garnish with parsley.

- other small fixes
Knows issues:
- it has the same bugs of the official ones like widgets and other elements non skinned. Probably these are phone's FW issues...
- FP2 keyboard is not skinnable, because is now seen as a separate app like gallery or camera. Very bad...
To install put the "ItalianLab_Belle_220.127.116.11210222138" folder into C:\Program Files\Nokia\Carbide.ui Symbian\eclipse\plugins, or whatever into the plugins folder. Carbide has to be closed as you do this. On next start should be recognized.
I've been testing and working on this for many months, and finally I think that's ready to be published. My latest themes, like Rugge's and Giulio7g's ones currently on Nokia Store are made with this.
To pass QA process for either S^3, Anna and Belle you have to manually add S^3 and Anna platform compatibility by editing sis with SisContents, otherwise by default the theme is read as compatible only for Belle. If you don't publish on store nevermind, theme will work anyway.
So here it is, I hope you like it!

Saturdays: definitely never a day you should have to work on — that's like, a rule of government or something, right? If it isn't, it should be. Unfortunately for the gang at The Mindy Project it was mostly work and barely any play for our gynecological office du jour, when Dr. Castellano calls Shauna, Betsy, and Morgan into hustle for that dollar bill on the weekend. Only instead of working, the group dig through Dr. Castellano's personal items and find a letter he wrote to his ex-wife. So naturally, they read the whole thing, get really sad, send guilt-ridden text messages to Danny, and then mail the letter. Wait — WHAT? Yep, that's right. Morgan mailed the letter. This is so not going to be good, for anyone's health.
For Mindy, the night started out simply enough: a date with a nice, employed gentleman who was nice on the eyes. They went on a carriage ride in Central Park — gosh, how Old New York of them — only to be shocked out of attraction after the horse is hurt and a nearby cop is forced to shoot it to be humane. Choice quote includes: "Why don't you web design him back to life!" as a retort to Mindy's date reminding her she's a doctor and could save the horse (she couldn't save the horse, she's not a veterinarian!). So Peanut Butter the horse gets shot in the middle of Mindy's make-out session/date. Looks like this one wasn't the one for her.
But that's OK because it's time for a best friend weekend! Only...your BFF's kid has to come, too! Man, being an adult is the worst. She tries really hard to be open-minded about Gwen's kid, but in the end, Mindy — with help from Danny — cause a broken bone, all in the name of bunk bed building for child appeasement. But what is this? Girls' own, Allison Williams is here? Marnie! I never would've pegged you to be so persnickity about birds. It sure does seem like the chemistry is flowing between these two! Ooh la la! Something tells me this love affair might throw Mindy for a bit of a loop.
So what did we learn this week? Oodles! Check out our dating dos and don'ts — as prescribed by our darling Mindy — from this week!
1.) Don't forget that Saturdays are for one thing: brunch! Or cartoons if your name is Morgan.
2.) Do bring breakfast for your employees that work on Saturday: It's all about being the best you can be on all fronts. Also breakfast foods are the most delicious of all of the foods.
3.) Don't be afraid of a romantic carriage ride in Central Park: Sure it's cheesy, but it's also sweet! Or don't do them, too, if you're into the humane treatment of animals. Totally up to you!
4.) Do abandon a carriage ride when the horse gets shot dead: Dead animals are a total chemistry buzzkill.
5.) Do not forget about your friend's children: They're here ...and they're not going anywhere until they're at least 18, unfortunately.
6.) Do know how to pronounce Twitter and Facebook: What are you, a luddite? My grandmother's on Facebook, Castellano. Step up your game.
7.) Do offer your help when called upon: It's the friendly thing to do!
8.) Do not be afraid to make something with your hands: We've lost that skill as a nation, don't lose it in yourself.
9.) Don't do directions: A real man never does.
10.) Do know who Marlon Brando is: Seriously?
11.) Do make pirate jokes when you like a girl: Arrrrrrr you ready to kiss on the mouth?!
12.) Do write love letters: But DO NOT mail them if they're not your own and especially if they involve your boss' ex-wife.
12.) Do try to be the man your boss' wife wasn't: Only actually definitely don't do that because that's totally the worst idea anyone's ever had.
What do you think of this week's episode of The Mindy Project? Let us know in the comments!

Press Reactions
Related Recordings
An invigorating journey over the landscape of modern music, Swiss clarinettist Eduard Brunner's solo recital is a tour-de-force of extended technique and high musicality applied to intensely-demanding composition. Brunner's album is titled after Helmut Lachenmann's Dal niente (out of nothing) whose sounds bleed into and out of the resonant silence of the church of St. Gerold. Where Lachenmann's concluding piece calls for nothing less than a new way of hearing, the Isang Yun composition that opens the programme is a deeply moving assertion of the inviolability of the human spirit which has its genesis in the two years that Yun spent in a South Korean prison under sentence of death. The recital also includes a hitherto unpublished Stravinsky miniature alongside the well-known Three Pieces for clarinet, Boulez's daunting Domaines, some brightly optimistic Stockhausen, and Scelsi's shadowy Preghiera per un'ombra. BBC Music Magazine: "Although a disc comprising 70 minutes of 20th century music for clarinet might be thought to appeal to enthusiasts only, there is such an enormous range of sounds contained within these pieces that one's attention is held throughout."

The Porter and the Three Ladies of Baghdad
Three wealthy and beautiful sisters invite, over the course of an evening, a porter, three one-eyed Kalandars, and three merchants—who turn out to be the Caliph and his companions in disguise—into their home for shelter, food, and drink. Upon entering each guest must take the following oath: ''Whoso speaketh of what concerneth him not shall hear what pleaseth him not!''
The eldest lady interrupts the festivities to attend to her duty. Two black bitches (female dogs) are brought out to her; she proceeds to beat them with a whip; then, tearfully kissing them both, she sends them away.
The cateress then sings a sad song, causing the portress to penitently rend her garments, revealing to the guests the marks of a terrible beating.
The men, unable to contain their curiosity, break their oaths and demand an explanation of the women. The eldest lady grows angry at their presumption and commands her slaves to bind them. The lady demands each of their stories in exchange for their lives.
The First Kalandar's Tale
The first Kalandar reveals that he is actually a Prince. His adventure begins with a visit to his cousin, who is also a Prince of another kingdom: sworn to an oath of secrecy, he agrees to conceal his cousin in an underground dwelling with his cousin's lover. He then returns to his father's kingdom, where he discovers that the King's Wazir has slain his father and taken over the kingdom. The Wazir puts out the Prince's left eye and condemns him to execution in the wilderness, but he manages to escape and immediately makes his way back to his uncle's kingdom, where his uncle is grieving over the disappearance of his son. The Prince breaks his oath and shows his uncle the entrance to the secret dwelling, which they enter only to find the burnt bodies of the cousin and his lover. The uncle spits upon the face of his son and then explains that the lady is the cousin's own sister whom he was forbidden from seeing. They return to the palace to find it taken over by the same evil Wazir. The uncle is killed and the Prince, disguised as a Kalandar, heads to Baghdad to seek the aid of the Caliph.
The Second Kalandar's Tale
The Second Kalandar also reveals that he is a Prince. Attacked by a band of robbers while journeying to Hind, he flees to a foreign city where he is taken in by a friendly tailor, who aids him in his finding work as a woodcutter.
While in the forest, he discovers an underground dwelling, where he finds a beautiful Princess who is held prisoner by an Ifrit. After spending the night with her, he foolishly summons the Ifrit, who appears and captures him; he kills the Princess for her infidelity and punishes the Prince by transforming him into an ape.
After a time of wandering, the Prince, still in the form of an ape, comes upon another kingdom where he manages to use his intelligence to impress the King.
The King's daughter Sitt al-Husn, who has magical abilities, realizes that the ape is really an enchanted Prince; she defeats the Ifrit in a terrible battle in order to set the Prince free, only to be killed...

/ About USDA / Secretary's Weekly Radio Address
This week, the White House released a new report showing the critical need for Congressional passage of a new Food, Farm and Jobs Bill.
One very important reason for Congress to expedite work toward a new Food, Farm and Jobs Bill is to continue today's rapid growth in local and regional marketing opportunities for American agriculture.
There are a wide range of important reasons why rural America needs passage of a comprehensive, multiyear Food, Farm and Jobs Bill as soon as possible.
While rural Americans have already waited too long for passage of a new Food, Farm and Jobs bill, this week brought a promising new development.
It's no secret that agricultural work is tough work - and as America's farm families know, it can be dangerous.
In his weekly radio address Rural America faces tremendous uncertainty today. Congress has not yet passed a Food, Farm and Jobs Bill, and the current extension of 2008 Farm Bill programs will soon expire.
In his weekly radio address Natural resource conservation is paramount to the ongoing strength of our nation. Healthy soil contributes to agricultural productivity. Healthy forests clean our water and air.
As lawmakers return from break, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack explains in his weekly address why extending portions of the current Farm Bill won't work.
In his weekly radio address Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack celebrates the nation's workers and the need for commonsense immigration reform and a farm bill.
In his weekly radio address Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack says there evidence that the rate of childhood obesity is on a down turn.

Deserving a Father of the Year Award
This dad has shown up all over my facebook page today. I give MAJOR kudos to this dad! By DESTROYING the item that she has used MULTIPLE TIMES to do things she KNOWS she's not supposed to do and has been punished for before…..he has taught her a lesson that she will NEVER forget.
A lesson that will keep on teaching when she has to earn money to buy her OWN laptop as a replacement instead of expecting her PARENTS to provide it for her.
A 15-year-old puts up a Facebook post bashing her parents for making her work too hard, dad reacts by posting a video response to her grievances on her Facebook page.

Refurbished and shining, the Teatro Massimo is one of the premier Palermo sights. It is the largest theatre in Italy and presents a full slate of performances each year. Blending flea market, kasbah, souk, and haggler's heaven, the markets in Palermo vibrate with energy. The street foods are one attraction, and the goods quite another. See them at the Vucciria, Borgo Vecchio, Capo, Ballaro, or Piazza Perani. The museum and gallery of Islamic art, Zisa, was built in the 12th century, and was the hunting lodge of the Norman Kings. The interior highlights the architectural influences of the Moorish tribes who had only recently been conquered. One of the most memorable Palermo sights is underground.

Enjoy a 4 hour private walking tour of Palermo. This diverse crossroads of Mediterranean and northern European civilization is more than a museum. It's a vibrant city whose unique culture has been forged and molded by three millennia of history emerging from three continents. There's no other place on earth like Palermo, and to discover the history of this singular city is to experience something of the diverse worlds that have created something which has evolved into its own culture.The streets of old Palermo are mixture of intriguing outdoor markets, subtle niches and long-forgotten secrets. After nine centuries street markets still evoke the atmosphere of Arab souks. Only the Baroque churches and palazzi on the same narrow streets remind you that you're in Italy. Sicily --ruled from Palermo as a Fatimid emirate and then as a Norman kingdom-- transcends this by many centuries. Let your Guide know your particular interests and he/she will help you discover the city in a new way. Your Guide will meet you at your hotel. Please note that one should wear comfortable shoes and a hat; and that this tour is suitable for children.
Every day is beach day in Taormina. Even during the winter months, you can enjoy water sports such as wind-surfing, sailing, fishing, scuba-diving, canoeing, and snorkeling.

Take the time to enjoy a beach side lunch and to take some photos of the sunset.

"Thank you for your follow up, we both loved our time in Croatia. It's really a beautiful place, especially the coast. Your choice of hotels was great. It was an incredible view from the Bellevue hotel in Dubrovnik and the Vestibule in Split was in the best possible location. We were able to relax in our room listening to the wonderful singers in the courtyard and its central location made it so easy to walk anywhere we wanted to see with ease. "

"We just returned from a 10 day trip to Paris and Normandy. We spent three nights in Paris and then enjoyed a seven night cruise on the Seine to Normandy with AMA Waterways. The time in Paris was well spent and has piqued our interest to return for a more thorough visit. Guide Wafaa Lankey was superb in our visit to Versailles. The Seine cruise was relaxing and beautiful. So many wonderful little towns and we wished we had more time in each one to explore and enjoy.
We traveled to Croatia and Slovenia using Kensington earlier this year which was a fantastic trip."

Phosphorus is the second most abundant mineral in the body, after calcium. About 85% of phosphorus in the body exists in bone.
Phosphorus' functions include:
- Forming bones and teeth
- Growing, maintaining, and repairing of cells and tissues
- Synthesizing and activating proteins, such as enzymes and hormones
- Maintaining acid-base balance
- Producing, regulating, and transferring energy in the body
- Converting carbohydrates, protein, and fat into energy
- Important cell membrane component
- Important in hemoglobin's oxygen delivery function
Recommended Intake
Phosphorus Deficiency
Phosphorus deficiency is called hypophosphatemia. Since phosphorus is present in such a large variety of foods, dietary phosphorus deficiency is rare.
Symptoms of hypophosphatemia may include:
Phosphorus Toxicity
Phosphorus toxicity is rare in people with normal kidney function. However, those with kidney problems may experience hyperphosphatemia, or elevated levels of phosphorus in the blood. Hyperphosphatemia can result in decreased levels of calcium in the blood and overproduction of parathyroid hormone, which can lead to bone loss.
The following table shows the upper intake levels for phosphorus. But, it's important to note that these levels are not created for people with kidney disease. If you have problems with your kidneys and are concerned about your phosphorus intake, talk to your doctor.
Major Food Sources
Are you looking to add more phosphorus to your diet? Here are some good food sources:
