The new snapshot, reteased by the Labor Department today, aiso showed that
companies expanded their payrotis by i 80,000 emptoyees in March, the most
since December. Workers aiso saw their paychecks get bigger. The fresh figures
suggested that companies are not feeiing a need to dramaticaiiy decrease hiring in
the face of the siower overait economic activity and the deep housing stump.
The report was stronger than economists were expecting. They were catting for
the economy to add around i 35,000 jobs in Narch and for the unemptoyment
rate to actuaiiy edge up to 4.6%. The 4.4% unemptoyment rate, which dropped
down a notch from 4.5% in February, matched the rate in October.

iast month, the most in just over a year. Retaiters added neariy 36,000 jobs iast
month. Education and heaith-care services expanded empioyment by 54,000.

The govern m en t w a tch d o g, The Food Standards A g e n cy , has announced targets for

The m ove is design ed to cut average daity satt intake in the diet, a s too much satt is
tinked to high btood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Dr. Wynnie Chan, a nutrition scientist for the British Nutrition Foundation, says that
everybody shoutd took to reduce the amount of satt in their diet.
"tt woutd have a significant effect on those peopte who need to reduce their satt
tevets because they are susceptibte to hypertension, but it woutd atso do no
harm for the whote poputation to reduce its satt intake," she said.
Dr. Chan said there were four main ways to reduce satt intake:
* Stop adding tabte satt to food once it is served

* Choose items with a reduced sodium content
* Carefutty monitor the satt content of processed food
* Eat more fruit and vegetables - they contain potassium which balances
the effect of salt on the body
Reading food labets can be confusing as they often give the sodium, rather than
the satt content of food. To catcutate the amount of satt in a product, multipty
the sodium content by two and a hatf times.

needed to exchange the box spring for a lower one. The sales people at the store
were helpful, but it took almost three weeks for it to come in. They called to set

Saturday. I called to confirm this and the lady who took my call was NOT very

Previous studies have show n that international flights are a significant factor in
unwelcom e insect invasion. Som e 7 3 percent o f recorded pest interceptions in the
U .S ., in fact, occur at airports.

Curious to determ ine w hen insects pack their bags and where the bugs are most
likely to go, A n d re w Tatem and Sim on H a y o f the U niversity o f O xford in England
studied global flight patterns for the 1 2 -m o n th period from M a y 1, 2 0 0 5 to April
30, 2006.
Pest travel between fa r-flu n g locations is more likely when the weather is similar
in both regions, m aking it easy for the pests to settle into their new home.
T h e researchers used rainfall, temperature, and hum idity data from each region to
w ork out w hich places linked b y the global flight netw ork had the most similar
climates at various times o f the year.

"H a w a ii, w ith its m oderate year-round climate, is a hot spot for pest invasions,"
Tatem said. "I t is linked to a similar climate in Central A m erica in A pril, Asia in
July, and the Caribbean in October.

In general, though, June, July, and August are the peak m onths for insect travel.
"T h e re are more airports in the N orthern Hem isphere, and the m ajor Southern
Hem isphere airports tend to be closer to the Equator, Tatem said. "T h e June-to-
A ugust period stood out as the tim e w hen, overall, the busiest ftight routes connect
