It's time to turn the page aitd start a new · historical cycle marked by different issues and changing relationships. In London. at the beginning of his trip, Obama advanced his theme by emphasizing that the "gravest threat" . to American security was not unbridled Islamic terrorism but uncontrolled nuclear weupons . In reopening ·arms-reduction talks with Russia ~ he was saying, in effect, that Vladimir Putin remains more important to the . national · interest than Osama bin Laden. But the most intriguing motnent was a town-hall meeting he held w;,th students in Istanbul at.the end of his eight-day journey. "I came ·to Turkey," he told them, "because I. am deeply committed to rebuilding a relationship between the United States and the people of the Muslim world one that's . grounded in mutual. interest and mutual respect." · That tone contrasts sharply with his predecessor.

AP photo Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke looks on ·as President Barack Obama makes remarks in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington: Obamasays economy showing · ' · ers ofhope' I BY DARLENE SUPERVILLE ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Presideni Barack Obama declared Friday that the slumping econotT:~y has begun to show "glimmers of hope," but eaution~d that it remains severely stressed and will re4uire lots more work to tum it around. Once criticized for talking too pessimistically about the economy, Obama is •highlighting t~ positive. · "We're starting to see glimmers of hope across the economy," the president said after a White House meeting with his economic team, including Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and top economic adviser Larry Summers. . Federal Reserve Chairman . Ber · .ernanke also participar: ed iu the s.ession. Obama echOed Summers· prediction a day earlier that the "sense of a ball falling off a table" would end in a few months. The rresident highlighted signs o thawing in the credit markets, particularly .for small busmesses seeking loans, along with tax cuts he said' workers will soon see in theirpaychecks and a jump in mortgage refinancings due to historically low interest rates. .Obama said those positive. moves as well as infrastructure work and other spend· ing underwritten by his $787 billion stimulus program all point to welcome signs of long-anticipated economic improvement. · "We're starting to see progress," Obama said. "And if we stick with it, if we don't flinch in the face of some difficulties, then I feel absolutely convinced that we are going to get this economy back on track." The president threw in a dose of sober reality, too. " Now, we have always been very cautious about prognosticating and that's not going to change just because it's Easter," Obama said. "The economy is still under severe stress.'~ · Unemployment hit a 25year high of 8.5 percent in March, and many people are sri 11 losing their homes or jobs, or fear losing them. · "So we've still got a lot of work. to do," Obama . said. Without elaborating, he said the administration would take steps in the coming weeks to help further. improve the business climate. .Gauging Wall Street's response to Obama 's tytore upbeat take had to watt as the markets were closed for Good Friday. Friday's meeting was the first between Obiuna and his economic .ttam since he returned from an overseas trip partly foc~~ed . l!n the global economtc cns1s. He participated in a meeting last week in London of leaders from the 20 wealthiest and developing economies. On Thursday. he urged eligible homeowners to refinance their mortgages using a special govemmenr program. He sat with a group of homeowners who had .shaved hundreds of dollars from their monthly bills because of low interest rates. "We are at a time where people can really take advantage of this," Obama said. His top economic adviser ' sounded a note of cautious optimism, as well. "The sense of a ball falling off a table, which is what the economy has felt like since the middle of last .fall, I think we can be reasonably confident tltat that is going to end within the next few months, and we will no longer hilVe that sense ·of a free fall," · Summers said Thursday :ar the Economic Club of Washington .' However, he said it was too soon to forecast how strong the rebound would be and when it would take hold .

In London. at the beginning of his trip, Obama advanced his theme by emphasizing that the "gravest threat" . to American security was not unbridled Islamic terrorism but uncontrolled nuclear weupons . In reopening ·arms-reduction talks with Russia ~ he was saying, in effect, that Vladimir Putin remains more important to the . national · interest than Osama bin Laden. But the most intriguing motnent was a town-hall meeting he held w;,th students in Istanbul at.the end of his eight-day journey. "I came ·to Turkey," he told them, "because I. am deeply committed to rebuilding a relationship between the United States and the people of the Muslim world one that's . grounded in mutual. interest and mutual respect." · That tone contrasts sharply with his predecessor.

AP photo Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke looks on ·as President Barack Obama makes remarks in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington: Obamasays economy showing · ' · ers ofhope' I BY DARLENE SUPERVILLE ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Presideni Barack Obama declared Friday that the slumping econotT:~y has begun to show "glimmers of hope," but eaution~d that it remains severely stressed and will re4uire lots more work to tum it around. Once criticized for talking too pessimistically about the economy, Obama is •highlighting t~ positive. · "We're starting to see glimmers of hope across the economy," the president said after a White House meeting with his economic team, including Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and top economic adviser Larry Summers. . Federal Reserve Chairman . Ber · .ernanke also participar: ed iu the s.ession. Obama echOed Summers· prediction a day earlier that the "sense of a ball falling off a table" would end in a few months. The rresident highlighted signs o thawing in the credit markets, particularly .for small busmesses seeking loans, along with tax cuts he said' workers will soon see in theirpaychecks and a jump in mortgage refinancings due to historically low interest rates. .Obama said those positive. moves as well as infrastructure work and other spend· ing underwritten by his $787 billion stimulus program all point to welcome signs of long-anticipated economic improvement. · "We're starting to see progress," Obama said. "And if we stick with it, if we don't flinch in the face of some difficulties, then I feel absolutely convinced that we are going to get this economy back on track." The president threw in a dose of sober reality, too. " Now, we have always been very cautious about prognosticating and that's not going to change just because it's Easter," Obama said. "The economy is still under severe stress.'~ · Unemployment hit a 25year high of 8.5 percent in March, and many people are sri 11 losing their homes or jobs, or fear losing them. · "So we've still got a lot of work. to do," Obama . said. Without elaborating, he said the administration would take steps in the coming weeks to help further. improve the business climate. .Gauging Wall Street's response to Obama 's tytore upbeat take had to watt as the markets were closed for Good Friday. Friday's meeting was the first between Obiuna and his economic .ttam since he returned from an overseas trip partly foc~~ed . l!n the global economtc cns1s. He participated in a meeting last week in London of leaders from the 20 wealthiest and developing economies. On Thursday. he urged eligible homeowners to refinance their mortgages using a special govemmenr program. He sat with a group of homeowners who had .shaved hundreds of dollars from their monthly bills because of low interest rates. "We are at a time where people can really take advantage of this," Obama said. His top economic adviser ' sounded a note of cautious optimism, as well. "The sense of a ball falling off a table, which is what the economy has felt like since the middle of last .fall, I think we can be reasonably confident tltat that is going to end within the next few months, and we will no longer hilVe that sense ·of a free fall," · Summers said Thursday :ar the Economic Club of Washington .' However, he said it was too soon to forecast how strong the rebound would be and when it would take hold .

Especially if you're looking for something sweet, refreshing and inexpensive to serve this summer. But that doesn 't mean you h~ve to stick with the classic blend of lemon juice, sugar and. water. . Start by using the frozen lemon juice sold in plastic squeeze bottles, which can · be found with other frozen juices. One bottle usually costs around $2.

Frosty, dessert-like and packed with delicious, nutritional ingredients, it's no wonder fruit smoothies are so popu· lar. What's. particularly nice about smoothies is that they are fast and easy to make, and indulgent without being Joaded with fat and c.alories. Plus, the only equipment Y!JU need is a blender. . Ot course, a smoothie is only as healthy and tasty as the in~redients you put in it. So avoid dumping in sugar ot thickening with full-fat dairy products. There are easy, healthy altematives. ·. To give a fruit smoothie its icy, thick consistency, use crushed ice or frozen fruit as the base. The advama~e of ice is that you add volume and texture without calones. The downside is that your smoothie can become watery as the ice melts. . Thickening with frozen fruit adds calories, but also plen· ty of vitamins, fiber and antioxidants. For convenience, wash, cut and freeze fruits such as melons, stone fruits and berries when they are in season so you have them on hand when smoothie inspiration hits. . . Peded and cut trOpical fruits, 'such as bananas, pineapples and mangoes, also are great ingredients to keep in the freezer. . For greater convenience, use .store-bought frozen fniits, such as berries, cherrie:> and peaches. These usually are an excellent value and good enough quality for blending into smoothies. . · Be sure to buy individQally quick-frozen fruits rather than those frozen in blocks of sugary liquid. They are healthier and much easier to toss into the blender. ·Many fruit smoothies also contain milk or frozen yogurt to give them a thick, creamy, milkshake-like texture. These two smoothie recipes go a little out of the box by using nonfat buttermilk to add a rich-tasting, pleasant tan11. The strawberry-banana smoothie uses frozen bemes and fresh · bananas, which add additional creaminess. Antioxidant-rich blueberries and pomegranate juice make a shocking purple smoothie that's as·healthy as it is flavorful . Use leftover buttermilk to make dressings, marinades or : as a healthy ingredient in baked goods, such as biscuits and cakes. · Consider the sait in~these recipes optional.

Especially if you're looking for something sweet, refreshing and inexpensive to serve this summer. But that doesn 't mean you h~ve to stick with the classic blend of lemon juice, sugar and. water. . Start by using the frozen lemon juice sold in plastic squeeze bottles, which can · be found with other frozen juices. One bottle usually costs around $2. You ·get about a cup of good quality juice for consider· ably less than squeezing your own lemons . For adults , th1s tropical lemonade wine AP photo cooler can quench a thirst¥ crowd for a litA Tropical Lemonade Wine Cooler is tle over $1 per serving. It s a great way to seen in this photo.

Frosty, dessert-like and packed with delicious, nutritional ingredients, it's no wonder fruit smoothies are so popu· lar. What's. particularly nice about smoothies is that they are fast and easy to make, and indulgent without being Joaded with fat and c.alories. Plus, the only equipment Y!JU need is a blender. . Ot course, a smoothie is only as healthy and tasty as the in~redients you put in it. So avoid dumping in sugar ot thickening with full-fat dairy products. There are easy, healthy altematives. ·. To give a fruit smoothie its icy, thick consistency, use crushed ice or frozen fruit as the base. The advama~e of ice is that you add volume and texture without calones. The downside is that your smoothie can become watery as the ice melts. . Thickening with frozen fruit adds calories, but also plen· ty of vitamins, fiber and antioxidants. For convenience, wash, cut and freeze fruits such as melons, stone fruits and berries when they are in season so you have them on hand when smoothie inspiration hits. . . Peded and cut trOpical fruits, 'such as bananas, pineapples and mangoes, also are great ingredients to keep in the freezer. . For greater convenience, use .store-bought frozen fniits, such as berries, cherrie:> and peaches. These usually are an excellent value and good enough quality for blending into smoothies. . · Be sure to buy individQally quick-frozen fruits rather than those frozen in blocks of sugary liquid. They are healthier and much easier to toss into the blender. ·Many fruit smoothies also contain milk or frozen yogurt to give them a thick, creamy, milkshake-like texture. These two smoothie recipes go a little out of the box by using nonfat buttermilk to add a rich-tasting, pleasant tan11. The strawberry-banana smoothie uses frozen bemes and fresh · bananas, which add additional creaminess. Antioxidant-rich blueberries and pomegranate juice make a shocking purple smoothie that's as·healthy as it is flavorful . Use leftover buttermilk to make dressings, marinades or : as a healthy ingredient in baked goods, such as biscuits and cakes. · Consider the sait in~these recipes optional. Just a pinch heightens the flavors of the fruit without adding much sodium . .STRAV'BERAY·8A~ANA SMOOTttlli:{; · . StMt to ffti/M: 5 i'rl(nulrl5 . Sll'l/ltlfl:? ..

A little well -timed prevention goes a long way toward reducing weatherrelated damage . A!ld landscaping is 1he place to start. Although many tasks are storm-specific, some pruning. rakin~. planting and picking up will save property owners big bucks when any kind of gale blows through . "It's all about the plants ," said Leslie Chapman-Hender;on of Tallahassee, Fla .. presi· dent and chief executive officer . of FLASH, the Federal Alliance for Safe Homes . "One of the most mean· ingful things we can do is change the landscape , no matter what we're facing. That will make a big difference:' · ·Trees and drainage always play a role. Take a long. slow walk around your property. Notice how rainwate.r nows through the yard. Ensure that any runoff moves well away from the house, to prevent a damaged foundation or nooded base· ment. Add berms and rain gardens where needed . Prune any overhanging or · damaged tree limbs that might cause trouble in high winds. If the threat is wildfires, remove portential organic fuels from around the house: Shop around for weather-resistant landscape materials, . such as pebble mulches and succulents. plants that retain water in tbeir fleshy leaves. stems and roots . "You can do some basic things to keep costs down," Chapman·Henderson said. "Get the neighbors together and involved." Prioritize. Take on the biggest projects well before any storm watches are post; ed. · . "A distressing number of homes have had trees fall through them over the past few years, so have. them inspected,'' said Dan Gill, a horticulturist. with Louisiana State University's AgCenter. "If there's any question about a tree leaning too much , or branches too close to the house . get them taken care of." Large trees can fall on your neighbor's p~operty , too, so include that ·on .any potential hazards' list, Gill said. "Smaller trees as a group hold up better in storms, particularly hurricanes," Gill said. "Hurricane winds generally are stronger high· er off the ground . f encourage people to use smaller spectes closer to their homes and taller trees farther away so if they do drop branches or ~o over, there's less damage.' ·Continue your yard maintenance as the storm apr,roaches. ' Batten down the hatches , landscape wise," Gill said. "Gather up your birdbaths, birdfeeders , doghouses. garden art and children's play · equipment. These thmgs .can become projectiles major issues - once winds start · hitting 100 miles an hour or more. Store them in the garage." Anyone growing edible crops should harvest what they can. even if they aren't completely ripe . "There won't be much left after a storm moves through ," Gill said . "Anytime· produce is touched by noodwater, whether it's a storm surge or water off the street, discard it. It may be contaminated." · Make a list of things that will have to be tied down, brought inside or otherwise dealt with in case of a severe storm. "Then buy the . necessary equipment. including the anchors or tiedowns, now," he said. Some other Gill-recom- · mended pre-storm chores: • Store pesticides and motor fuels in secure areas . anu higher than any potential floodwaters. You don't need chemicals and to~ins· coating your lawn, trees and plants. • Aquatic gardens need attention. Potted plants resting on bricks· or blocks to keep them above the water should be set on the bottom of the pond until the gales pass . Transfer expensive fish inside, and in water taken from the pond . • Secure fountains and statuary. Unplug any that require electrical power and coil up and remove the cords . . • Water all indoor plants if you intend to evacuate. • Drag out your garden hose and spray plants, grass and ornamentals that were covered by saltwater during the storm . Rake up any sediment that collected on shrubs and lawns .· Weather and storm conditions vary by region so contact your county extension agent for more information, or look for home improvement stores that offer s.tormproofing workshops. "The worst feeling you can get in this business ·comes from talking with people afterward who tell you they had great land-" scaping but did all the wrong stuff," ChapmanHenderson said.
