The Tire Performance Guide
Back in the March '03 magazine issue, we gave you an in-depth look at all the tires the Jp Staff has hammered on. We said that we not only kill lots of tires, we kill lots of different kinds of tires. Nothing has changed. Perhaps more than any other magazine, the Jp staff tests tires to ten-tenths of their ability to bring you the truth on how the tires perform both on- and off-road. In fact, we probably put more miles on our test tires in the dirt than other magazines do in the dirt and on the street combined. We're wheeling fools. Here are our findings.
It's too bad tire stores aren't like shoe stores. It would be cool if you could try on your new set of tires and drive around on them for a while before you plunk down your cash, but it doesn't work that way. Since we've driven each tire in this story, we'll give you our idea, on a scale of one to four stars, of how they do in a given terrain. That way you can match which tire excels in whatever type of driving you do most.
****- This is the tire you should be running.
***- It's a good choice and will work well.
**- There are better tires available, but it's acceptable if you need to compromise.
*- We'd choose a different tire.
The BFGoodrich Krawler is a radial tire that shares more in strength with a bias-ply. In the rocks, the big lugs grab like gangbusters, especially with the tires at lower air pressures. The sidewall lugs work very well for climbing even slick granite on the sidewall. The tread and sidewall flex and readily envelope obstacles, but resist tearing and damage to an impressive degree. They excel in most terrain, but don't really seem to like deep, thick mud. On the street you can feel some lug slap, but the ride is not overly harsh and, once rolling, even borders on smooth.
Street-*** Mud-* * *
Sand-* * * * Heavy Rock-* * * *
The BFGoodrich Mud Terrain KM is a radial tire that's available in sizes up to 37x12.50-17. The semi-aggressive tread pattern makes it a good choice for all-around use, including street driving. Dry loose dirt, sand, light mud and some rock capabilities make the BFG Mud extremely popular. The sidewall lugs are slightly larger than those found on the earlier Mud Terrain, but the sidewall construction is the same three-ply. In some areas, they'll last a lifetime. Other more abusive terrains (sharp and rocky) have been known to cut the sidewalls of the BFG KM.
Street-*** Mud-***
Sand-*** Heavy Rock-**
The BFG Baja T/A is often thought of as a race-only tire, but we've been really pleased with its performance just about everywhere. Surprisingly, if you air the tires down to about 5 psi they do very well in rocks, and their strong four-ply sidewalls aren't likely to tear. In mud and sand, they clean easily, and the outer lugs act like little paddles to keep forward momentum. Naturally, they do exceptionally well as a prerunner tire, giving superb forward and lateral traction while maintaining a high-survivability rate for rock hits. While the ride on the street is very rough, we've put about 10,000 miles on a set of 33x10.50-15s with very little tread wear noticeable.

@barryjackie: So sorry for your loss as well. Thank you for the message. It's still so new for you. I remember that fresh pain. Time does not heal all wounds, but it does numb them some. It will get easier ... & I know you will have many days that you won't believe that, but eventually you will know it to be true. All the firsts are the hardest, for sure. I still have bad days, after 12 years, but they are fewer & farther between. I bought the new album yesterday & listed to it, twice. Good stuff ... song 4, I think it's called Ready to Fly ... brought tears to my eyes. Keep hanging in there ... & know that you're not alone ~ Hugs!

It's been five years now since I accepted Courage into my life. This reflection is a discussion of my interactions with other men that have helped reconcile me with masculinity, with who I am. Growing up, I felt ambivalent about masculinity. It often seemed reckless, self-seeking, or insensitive. What masculine traits I did see as good, like strength and bravery, seemed unattainable to me, and so I felt inadequate. I also had different interests from most male peers. I felt I couldn't belong or connect well with them, and so I became detached from them.

For those that don't know him or have yet to discover him, Robert Scott Wilson is both a model and an actor. In September 2012, Wilson won the coveted position as the first-ever male model on "The Price is Right." The game show hosted by Drew Carey, currently in its 41st season on CBS, issued an open casting call for male models in Los Angeles in August of last year and hundreds of hopefuls showed up. After being narrowed down to just 26 individuals, the men competed in a series of challenges that were featured on priceisright.com. Such challenges included writing and singing original lyrics based on the theme music from the iconic series. Ultimately, Wilson beat out finalists Clint Brink and Nick Denbeigh and began a week-long stint in mid-October, which has since turned into a regular gig. When news first broke that Wilson would be joining the cast of "All My Children" in the contract role of Peter Cortlandt, one could only wonder if he would be departing the game show after such a short period of time. Wonder no more as the actor tells Soap Opera Network, he'll be doing both!
On Monday, November 19, the winner of "The Price is Right's" first ever Male Model search, Rob Wilson, will be Live Tweeting during the east coast broadcast (11:00 AM ET/8:00 AM PT) of the venerable daytime game show.
Wilson won the nearly two month long contest which found hundreds of hopefuls seeking the coveted position. The contest began with a casting call in Los Angeles on August 30 and concluded on October 8, when Wilson defeated Clint Brink and Nick Denbeigh to be named "TPIR's" first male model.
You can chat with Wilson by tweeting him @MrRobertScott. Make sure to follow @PriceIsRight for updates on "The Price is Right."

About Me Beginner
Comments about Sink Strainer:
I love these strainers. I actually bought a second one because I liked the first one. I use the strainers in my kitchen sinks. The strainers keep food and other things from going down the sink and clogging my pipes. It is a challenge trying to clean the strainer, but I can deal with that problem because I know my sink is not getting clogged up with food. I will buy more strainers when my current strainers get too hard to clean.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Museum Officials from Eight Countries Visit Fowler Museum of Cultural History
Delegates from Middle East, Central America, Eastern Europe, Africa, and South and Southeast Asia choose UCLA for university segment of study tour of American museums.
Published: Thursday, May 06, 2004
An 8-member multinational delegation, each from a different country, visited UCLA's Fowler Museum of Cultural History April 30 as part of a study tour on "The Role of Museums in American Society." Their UCLA goal, acording to letters arranging the visit, was to "experience art and cultural collections at a major U.S. university." The group consisted of delegates from Bahrain, Brunei, Czech Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Kenya, Malaysia, and Nepal.
The group is spending 25 days in the United States, where Los Angeles was their second stop. They had first spent 8 days in Salt Lake City, and went on from Southern California to Tulsa. While in Tulsa, their focus was to be on American Indian art and culture. From Tulsa, they were to travel to New Orleans for a convention and finally will end in Washington D.C.
While waiting for the meeting to begin, Janice Brummond, English Language Officer and escort, led the group in singing "Happy Birthday" to one of the delegates, Michal Lukes of the Czech Republic. She presented Lukes with a birthday card, and a purple ribbon that he happily put on. Afterwards, a few of the delegates began to sing "Happy Birthday" in their native languages.
They then began their meeting with Betsy Quick, director of education for the museum. She discussed the Fowler's mission statement, structure, educational program, and funding. Of particular interest were the differences between a university-based museum as compared to a community museum. Ms. Quick explained that the university museums are "able to take more risks" in terms of what types of exhibitions they will display.
Mr. Bishnu Raj Karki of Nepal was most interested in the museum's K-12 educational program and was curious as to how they were able to attract teachers to utilize the museum and their program. Ms. Quick explained their offering of continuing education credits and professional development to teachers. Curriculum Resource Units are offered in conjunction with the museum's major exhibitions, and are intended to broaden teachers' and students' understanding of world arts and cultures. These in-depth units of study include interdisciplinary lessons, learning objectives, and background information for teachers. Lessons are closely correlated with the National Standards for History, the California State Frameworks for History and Social Sciences, Art and Literature, and the state-adopted Houghton Mifflin social science textbook series. Units of study are intended both as preparation for students' visits to the museum and as sustained resources for teachers in ongoing curricular planning.
Members of the delegation included:
BAHRAIN: Mr. Yusuf Mohamed Abdulrahman MAHMOOD, director of the Bahrain Contemporary Art Museum in Manama
BRUNEI: Mr. Batong BIN ANTARAN, deputy director of the Department of Museums in Bandar Seri Begawan
CZECH REPUBLIC: Mr. Michal LUKES, director general of the National Museum, Prague
EL SALVADOR: Ms. Lilly Patricia LEMUS de BANOS, director of the David J. Guzman National Museum of Anthropology, San Salvador
GUATEMALA: Ms. Ana Claudia MONZON de SUASNAVAR, director of Didactic Museology, Museum of Science and Technology, Guatemala City
KENYA: Mr. Ibrahim Mohamud ABDILLAHI, curator, Lamu Museum, National Museums of Kenya, Lamu
MALAYSIA: Mr. Syed Mohamad MOHD NURSIN, founder-director of the Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur
NEPAL: Mr. Bishnu Raj KARKI, undersecretary, Department of Archaeology, Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation, Bhaktapur
They were accompanied by English Language Officers Ms. Janice Brummond and Mr. William (Toney) Seabolt.

Alabama got some good news Thursday when junior linebacker C.J. Mosley announced he'd be returning for his senior season next year.
His decision may come as a surprise, but Mosley said he and his parents knew he was coming back before this season even started. He didn't even reach out to the NFL to check his potential draft status.
"My main thing was just finishing my degree, finishing school," he said. "I just felt like I haven't accomplished everything that I could as far as playing football, and I just wanted to make sure that when I leave school, I don't have any regrets."
Mosley is expected to graduate with a degree in human environmental sciences next December.
Though projected as a first-round draft pick on some boards, one of the biggest holes in his resume is that Alabama hasn't used him as an every-down linebacker. He hopes that in coming back for another year, that will change.
"Most definitely," he said.
Mosley, who was a finalist for the Butkus Award and a consensus All-American, was also voted by his teammates as the Crimson Tide's MVP this season. He said when it was announced at the end of the year awards banquet a couple weeks ago, he was caught off guard.
"I was surprised," he said. "I didn't know I was getting it. I was in the middle of eating some cake when I heard it, so I had to eat it up real quick to get out there. They asked me to say something, but I was shocked and didn't want to go up there and start mumbling."
Though Mosley may not have seen the honor coming, it only seems like the natural selection as he led the team with 99 tackles (no one else had over 56), seven tackles for loss (minus-46 yards), four sacks (minus-34 yards) and two interceptions (one for a touchdown against Michigan) among other impressive stats.
But Mosley isn't just an MVP on the field, but off it, too. Alabama head coach Nick Saban said that Mosley is an example of the type of guy—personally, academically and athletically—he enjoys coaching.
"C.J. is a really good person," Saban said. "I know that he has never been in my office for ever not doing what he's supposed to do, like missing class, or getting in trouble in the dorm, or not doing something he was responsible for, or being late. I mean not once. Not ever once.
"He's very quiet. You don't even know he's around until the ball's snapped, then he shows up big and does what he's supposed to do.
"He's very conscientious, and he's done really well in school here. We look forward to seeing him graduate in the very near future. He's got a wonderful family. This guy is one that will make you proud."
Mosley, who stands at 6-2, 235, said he probably won't play over 240 pounds, but his size doesn't affect his game.
"He's so physical, so tough," said senior defensive end Damion Square. "He's not a very big linebacker, but he plays like he's Ray Lewis or something."
Heading into its third national championship game in four years, Alabama's defense leads the nation in total defense (246.0 yards per game) and rushing defense (79.77), and is second (behind Notre Dame) in scoring defense (10.7 points per game).
With Mosley returning next year, alongside young guns like Trey DePriest, Adrian Hubbard, Xzavier Dickson, Reggie Ragland and Denzel Devall, the Tide has a chance to churn out yet another elite unit. And Mosley will be the leader.
"He's one of the most amazing players that I've played with at the University of Alabama," Square said. "He's great at everything he does. He can pass rush. He can play the run. He can play the pass. There's nothing that coach has ever asked of this guy that he cannot do. He's what a football player is. If you want to be a great football player then I suggest you mock C.J. Mosley."

On Friday, fans can see the band live at the Reno Events Center. And Matchbox Twenty is bringing friends along. Also playing the 7 p.m. show is the multi-platinum and Grammy award winning Alanis Morissette, who has been rocking the music charts since her angry but genius debut "Jagged Little Pill" in 1995.
And opening for both acts will be MuteMath, self-described as electro-alternative rock. Hailing from New Orleans, the band has one Grammy award nomination under its belt and its second album is expected later this year.
Fans shouldn't take this Matchbox Twenty show for granted as it almost wasn't going to happen. Rob Thomas' solo career delivered hit after hit with "Lonely No More," "This is How a Heart Breaks" and "Street Corner Symphony" and won him three Grammys and two Billboard Songwriter of the Year awards. Thomas' success and the departure of guitarist Adam Gaynor left many to wonder if the band would ever reunite.
Matchbox Twenty had talked about releasing a greatest hits album, which many fans have said is long overdue. Since the band's 1996 debut "Yourself or Someone Like You," the band has sold more than 37 million records worldwide. Three years after its release, the debut album went diamond, selling more than 10 million copies in the United States alone thanks to the hits "3 a.m.," "Push," "Real World," and "Long Day." The albums "Mad Season" and "More Than You Think You Are" also went multi-platinum.
Finally giving in to demands for a greatest hits compilation, Matchbox Twenty – still without Gaynor – got together with plans of choosing its hits and maybe making one new song before parting ways again. But after meeting they had a change of heart. The result was 2007's "Exile on Mainstream," featuring six new tracks and 11 of the band's hits from its previous three albums.
"How Far We've Come," the first single released off of "Exile," has climbed as high as No. 5 on the music charts. The apocalyptic lyrics and the impassioned sound make it difficult not to sing along.
Now the band is taking all its hits, new and old, on a world tour. And fans should swarm to Matchbox Twenty's "Exile in America" tour because it may be the last.
Tickets to see Matchbox Twenty with Alanis Morissette and MuteMath are $85.50, $65.50, $55.50 and $45.50. Tickets can be purchased by phone at 888-288-1833, online at www.downtownreno.com and at Circus Circus' Main Cashier's Cage, the Eldorado Showroom Box Office and Silver Legacy's Box Office.

Wow. Nice looking gun
Thanks guys - it shoots as good as it looks. Actually altho I've been shooting for 50 + years, this is my first 1911. Gotta' say probably not my last.
Sweet I mean really sweet what caliber is that. I want to get their 9mm and waiting for the price to drop.
Looks great. Congrats!
Here's my TRP. Its my only Springfield.
Olivey goodness.....
Nice looking guns. I like the Springers over most all other 1911's out there. I just get that lovin feeling when I pick one up. Got two now and am looking get more
I got to messing around with some of the wife's photography stuff and snapped this of one of my Springers. It was hung up with some fishing line in front of that funky backdrop and I kind of worked out the few spots that reflected the line back. I was trying to make a new desktop wallpaper for me and thought I'd size it to show here too
Same pic but I messed with some more things changing the background some.

Beautiful weapons! After I get a Ruger LCP for my pocket, I'm going to start saving for a 1911, possibly an EMP.

The Michigan Civil Service Commission has established an Employee-Employer Relations Rule which creates a system of collective bargaining for determining conditions of employment including compensation for state classified employees. Upon election of an exclusive representative, all conditions of employment for unit employees are established through negotiations between the Office of the State Employer, as the Governor's representative, and the exclusive representative.
The Rule provides for the state personnel director to establish bargaining units of eligible employees in broad occupational groups with a community of interest. Currently there are 11 units eligible for collective bargaining; of these, 10 units comprising approximately 71% of the total state classified work force are represented by exclusive representatives. Employees in supervisory, managerial and confidential positions are ineligible for exclusive representation and collective bargaining.
The following chart provides a brief description of each unit, identifies the exclusive organization which represents employees in the unit, and offers a link to the contract covering employees in the unit.

What's poppin folks, RatedATB back at it again with his Survivor Series 2011 Predictions. Going into this ppv, I don't think WWE did the best job of getting us here if you look back at Raw. However one good thing is the matches don't seem too bad so without further ado...
(Also this is in no way the order I expect this show to be)
U.S Championship - Dolph Ziggler vs.
Man, the blog landscape on eWN is getting thick, eh? Either way, I'm back again with another edition of [B]STATE OF THE 'E[/B]... often imitated, NEVER duplicated! I will say though, I'd like a part of that "BlogWars" action! ;) Great job with that!
Now, my last blog got a lot of heat, which is a good thing. It shows that everyone has an opinion on the matter. Whether you agree
Howdy, so this is my first blog on the site and I definitely wanted to just switch things up a bit. Rather then ranting and raving about Cody Rhodes or the top 5 whatevers in wrestling. I wanted to write this for fans of Ring of Honor. 2011, an interesting year for this company, coming off what I felt was arguably the second best year in the company's history, being 2010
The purpose of this blog is to talk about why I think it's a ridiculous assumption that people think John Cena is anything like Hulk Hogan.
[B]Hulk Hogan helped make wrestling what it is today, John Cena is destroying it[/B] That's right folks. John Cena is destroying what Hulk Hogan helped create, basically he isn't helping it get better which is what Hogan did in the 80s, so
This is an optimistic blog, If youre a pessimist, Get THE F OUT
The Rock and John Cena Show
Which way are WWE going?? Who knows? Is Cena going to turn heel? Who knows? Is he oging to win clean at Mania? Who knows?
This is why I like this stroyline. The main event at Mania has had a big bleamin build up, unlike any other in light years. For those complainers
Hey guys, I am sitting here bored outta my mind so I figured what the hell, lets write another blog! This time I'm gonna talk about TNA and what they need to do to start improving further, some of the talent needs to go and some needs to be pushed.
[B]Scott Steiner[/B] Scott Steiner, what can you say about him? Well, he is good on the mic... He is gettting
Hey everyone,
It's been an extremely long time since I've written a blog on here. I pretty much considered myself retired, but I strongly feel as though this is a subject that is worth speaking about. With all the negativity here in the IWC, I'm actually going to talk about something that is a positive thing. And that, my friends, is the amazing talent that is now apparent in one Cody Rhodes.
Hey guys Knox here. I hope all is well, I've been absent for a while as I've been involved with the blog wars. I got my butt whooped in the more recent Tag Team addition so my hat goes off to "Wrestling Fan" for creating this and "Dr. Death" & "The Hitman" for kicking my butt lol great job guys.
Now lets talk about the WWE's attitude era return and
I've been reading alot of reports (and some spoilers) for IMPACT lately and pretty much just watching alot of IMPACT.I would like to talk about some main focuses during the past month or so from TNA.
MORGAN and CRIMSON TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS
Well...great way to keep Crimson's undefeated streak and push (well I don't know, It started the day he signed with TNA..) I think Morgan
What's poppin folks, RatedATB back at it again with his thoughts on this weeks Raw. Apologies for the lateness, as I said in my previous blog this was late due to me working on Monday and I had to catch the episode on Wednesday. So without further ado...
We open up with the Michael Cole Challenge. Hmm. All I can really say here is Punk hit the nail directly on the head...this was a

Top college track and field traditions?
Main message board: for the discussion of topical track & field items only.
20 posts • Page 1 of 1
Top college track and field traditions?
There are several rankings of the colleges with the most "tradition" out there.
I wonder which 20 college track and field programs have the best tradition? Men only, since women started only relatively recently. Besides, the TSU Tigerbelles are an easy #1 anyhow!
I'm not an expert in track and field in any way, which is why I try to soak up info from "our favorite magazine," but I'm guessing the list of top traditions in track starts with Southern Cal. After that, how would the list go?
The football lists are put together considering several factors: total wins, national titles, bowl wins, AP rankings, All-Americans, facilities, fan interest, great coaches, etc., etc........
Track could use a similar formula. National titles, NCAA individual titles, great coaches, facilities, fan interest, dual meet record, etc.
What would a top 20 look like?
Damn. Edit...
First sentence should have read: "There are several rankings of the colleges with
the most FOOTBALL "tradition" out there."
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
Ohio State
Penn State
Brigham Young
San Jose State
Outside of the first entry, none are in any particular order.
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
Great list. If the question were what "cities" had the most track tradition, then Eugene and Gainesville would be 1 and 2 on the list.
Coach, why Gainesville so high?
Re: Gainesville?
The history of the Florida Track Club that dates back to the late 60's.
Florida Track Club
What is that organization like now? Is it like it was when Frank Shorter was there? I've heard that Gainesville is not the ideal place to train for distance running, so I'm guessing that the FTC is not like it used to be.
As for Gainesville so high on the list, what about Los Angeles, Austin, Philly, Lawrence -- even Knoxville? Shouldn't they all be higher?
Re: Florida Track Club
The FTC had a membership around 200-300 in the early 70's but with the coverage of the elite athletes, that's all many people heard about. Even I thought that the FTC was really small. It wasn't. Think the emphasis with the FTC today is on general fitness as opposed to the elite performer/performances. There are still many world-clas runners in town though. See many of the top Russian women in town. Dennis Mitchell lives in Gainesville and has his stable of runners he coaches on the track. Don't see that many of the elite folks these days as it is getting to be very hot here. Those cities you mentioned are great running cities (let's not forget Chicago and the Chicago Track Club) but why I thought about Eugene and Gainesville is there was (or at least seemed to be) a bigger concentration of elite athletes in these towns.
Re: Florida Track Club
uh, Boston anyone ?
great history (Bill Rodgers)
good club system, not just one
great local USATF organization
the one & only Boston Marathon
three, count 'em three banked indoor tracks within the city limits
we even have some decent meets occasionally
Re: Florida Track Club
has anyone ever heard of the New York Athletic Club ? Loved those old winged jerseys.
Also the New York Pioneer Club.
The whites ran for NYAC, the blacks for the Pioneers. Nothing to cheer about on that score.
Boulder, too
Lots of good athletes train there.
Re: Florida Track Club
Doesn't Jearl Miles, Mark Everett, Mykotok, and and Dan Middleman live there too not to mention Bernard Williams and John Capel just to name a few?
Re: Florida Track Club
Jearl's husband is the new women's coach at Tennessee, so she has relocated.
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
What about San Jose? THE South Bay still has stanford to hold up tradition.
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
Stanford is mid-Peninsula, not South Bay
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
i thing some of you are missing the point. One or two olympic athletes from a college does not make a "tradition".
Re: Florida Track Club
>has anyone ever heard of the New York Athletic
Club ? Loved those old winged jerseys.
Also the New York Pioneer Club.
The whites ran for NYAC, the blacks for the Pioneers. Nothing to cheer about on that score.<
The NYAC is very much alive. In fact, if you check the entries for the National Championships next week you'll see they have a number of athletes competing for them. They're one of the few viable clubs out there that do not bear the name of a shoe company or other commercial enterprise.
The NYAC's membership policies were indeed once notorious. In New York, blacks and Jews ran for the NY Pioneers or other local clubs because they were excluded from the NYAC, which had better facilities and club support. The NYAC used to hold a major indoor meet in Madison Square Garden, but in the late 1960's they attracted the attention of civil rights demonstrators. Rather than change their policies, they stopped sponsoring the meet. Things finally changed some time in the 1980's when the club opened up membership to groups that had previously been barred. I believe Antonio McKay may have been the first Black runner to compete for the NYAC but there were a few others as well.
Today, the Club is still there. They have maintained their traditional club facilities on Central Park South. They have a large membership, mostly white males. And they remain active in sports, including athletics.
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
how about a few juco or Div. II teams. such as Adams, Lubbock, Brevard, malone to name a few.
Re: Florida Track Club
Meant to ask you Bill Vol, what do you think of Coach Clark?
Re: Top college track and field traditions?
If you're going to talk about DII then you need to mention St. Augistine in Raleigh NC. They are rarely less than 2nd at the NCAA meet. Abilene Christian is also a perenial contender.

Post, Guardian win Pulitzers for NSA revelations
US weighs ending spying on allied heads of state
WASHINGTON (AP) — Faced with a flood of revelations about U.S. spying practices, the White House is considering ending its eavesdropping on friendly foreign leaders, a senior administration official said.
A final decision has not been made and the move is still under review, the official said. But the fact that it is even being considered underscores the level of concern within the administration over the possible damage from the months-long spying scandal — including the most recent disclosure that the National Security Agency was monitoring the communications of German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
On Monday, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, called for a "total review of all intelligence programs" following the Merkel allegations. In a statement, the California Democrat said the White House had informed her that "collection on our allies will not continue."
The administration official said that statement was not accurate, but added that some unspecified changes already had been made and more were being considered, including terminating the collection of communications from friendly heads of state.
The official was not authorized to discuss the review by name and insisted on anonymity.
Reports based on new leaks from former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden indicate that the NSA listened to Merkel and 34 other foreign leaders.
"With respect to NSA collection of intelligence on leaders of U.S. allies — including France, Spain, Mexico and Germany — let me state unequivocally: I am totally opposed," Feinstein said. She added that the U.S. should not be "collecting phone calls or emails of friendly presidents and prime ministers" unless in an emergency with approval of the president.
In response to the revelations, German officials said Monday that the U.S. could lose access to an important law enforcement tool used to track terrorist money flows. Other longtime allies have also expressed their displeasure about the U.S. spying on their leaders.
As possible leverage, German authorities cited last week's non-binding resolution by the European Parliament to suspend a post-9/11 agreement allowing the Americans access to bank transfer data to track the flow of terrorist money. A top German official said Monday she believed the Americans were using the information to gather economic intelligence apart from terrorism and said the agreement, known as the SWIFT agreement, should be suspended.
European Union officials who are in Washington to meet with lawmakers ahead of White House talks said U.S. surveillance of their people could affect negotiations over a U.S.-Europe trade agreement. They said European privacy must be better protected.
Many officials in Germany and other European governments have made clear, however, that they don't favor suspending the U.S.-EU trade talks which began last summer because both sides stand to gain so much through the proposed deal, especially against competition from China and other emerging markets.
As tensions with European allies escalate, the top U.S. intelligence official declassified dozens of pages of top-secret documents in an apparent bid to show the NSA was acting legally when it gathered millions of Americans' phone records.
Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper said he was following the president's direction to make public as much information as possible about how U.S. intelligence agencies spy under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Monday's release of documents focused on Section 215 of the Patriot Act, which allows the bulk collection of U.S. phone records.
The document release is part of an administration-wide effort to preserve the NSA's ability to collect bulk data, which it says is key to tracking key terror suspects, but which privacy activists say is a breach of the Constitution's ban on unreasonable search and seizure of evidence from innocent Americans.
The release of the documents comes ahead of a House Intelligence Committee hearing Tuesday on FISA reform.
The documents support administration testimony that the NSA worked to operate within the law and fix errors when they or their systems overreached. One of the documents shows the NSA admitting to the House Intelligence Committee that one of its automated systems picked up too much telephone metadata. The February 2009 document indicates the problem was fixed.
Another set of documents shows the judges of the FISA court seemed satisfied with the NSA's cooperation. It says that in September 2009, the NSA advised the Senate Intelligence Committee about its continuing collection of Americans' phone records and described a series of demonstrations and briefings it conducted for three judges on the secretive U.S. spy court. The memorandum said the judges were "engaged throughout and asked questions, which were answered by the briefers and other subject matter experts," and said the judges appreciated the amount and quality of information the NSA provided.
It said that two days later, one of the judges, U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton, renewed the court's permission to resume collecting phone records.
The documents also included previously classified testimony from 2009 for the House Intelligence Committee by Michael Leiter, then head of the National Counterterrorism Center. He and other officials said collecting Americans' phone records helped indict Najibullah Zazi, who was accused in a previously disclosed 2009 terror plot to bomb the New York City subways.
The documents also show the NSA considered tracking targets using cellphone location data, and according to an April 2011 memo consulted the Justice Department first, which said such collection was legal. Only later did the NSA inform the FISA court of the testing.
NSA commander Gen. Keith Alexander revealed the testing earlier this month to Congress but said the agency did not use the capability to track Americans' cellphone locations nor deem it necessary right now.
Asked Monday whether the NSA intelligence gathering had been used not only to protect national security but American economic interests as well, White House spokesman Jay Carney said: "We do not use our intelligence capabilities for that purpose. We use it for security purposes."
National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden later clarified that: "We do not use our intelligence capabilities to give U.S. companies an advantage, not ruling out that we are interested in economic information."
Still, he acknowledged the tensions with allies over the eavesdropping disclosures and said the White House was "working to allay those concerns," though he refused to discuss any specific reports or provide details of internal White House discussions.
Associated Press writers Ted Bridis and Jack Gillum in Washington, Frank Jordan, Geir Moulson and Robert H. Reid in Berlin, Juergen Baetz in Brussels, Ciaran Giles, Jorge Sainz and Alan Clendenning in Madrid and Sarah DiLorenzo in Paris contributed to this report.
Edward Snowden's father arrives in Moscow
MOSCOW (AP) — The father of former National Security Agency systems analyst Edward Snowden arrived in Moscow Thursday morning to meet with his son who has received asylum in Russia and has been living at a secret location.
Lon Snowden told Russian television outside Moscow's airport that he doubts his son, Edward Snowden, will return to the United States, where he is charged with violating the Espionage Act for disclosing NSA's highly classified surveillance of phone and Internet usage around the world.
"I'm not sure that my son will be returning to the U.S. again," Lon Snowden said but added that "that's his decision." He also said he has not had direct contact with his son and would not say when or where he will be meeting him.
Edward Snowden was stuck at a Moscow airport for more than a month after his arrival from Hong Kong on June 23. He was granted asylum in Russia in August. His whereabouts remain secret although his lawyer, Anatoly Kucherena, insists that Snowden lives in Russia.
Lon Snowden said that it is his understanding that his son has now stopped leaking information.
He thanked Russia and President Vladimir Putin for sheltering his son.
Edward Snowden's asylum status has strained the already tense relationship between the U.S. and Russia, and President Barack Obama called off a meeting with President Putin at a Russia-hosted summit in September.
Report: Canada spies targeted Brazil mine ministry
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — A Brazilian television report that aired Sunday night said Canadian spies targeted Brazil's Mines and Energy Ministry.
The report on Globo television was based on documents leaked by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden and was the latest showing that Latin America's biggest nation has been a target for U.S., British and now Canadian spy agencies.
The report said the "metadata" of phone calls and emails from and to the Brazilian ministry were targeted by Canada's Communications Security Establishment to map the ministry's communications, using a software program called Olympia. It didn't indicate if emails were read or phone calls listened to.
Brazilian Mines and Energy Minister Edison Lobao told Globo that "Canada has interests in Brazil, above all in the mining sector. I can't say if the spying served corporate interests or other groups."
American journalist Glenn Greenwald, based in Rio de Janeiro, worked with Globo on its report. Greenwald broke the first stories about the NSA's global spy program focusing on Internet traffic and phone calls.
Globo previously reported that the communications of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff and also state-run oil company Petrobras were targeted by NSA spying.
Earlier, Greenwald wrote articles in the O Globo newspaper saying that the NSA was gathering metadata on billions of emails, phone calls and other Internet data flowing through Brazil, an important transit point for global communications.
The fallout over the spy programs led Rousseff last month to cancel a planned visit to the U.S., where she was to be the guest of honor for a state dinner.
Rousseff last month spoke at the United Nations General Assembly and called for international regulations on data privacy and limiting espionage programs targeting the Internet.
Snowden's father gets visa to visit son in Russia
WASHINGTON (AP) — National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden's father says he has secured a visa to visit his son in Russia.
Lon Snowden and family attorney Bruce Fein aren't saying when they'll visit Russia.
They also say they haven't spoken directly with Edward Snowden since he fled the United States for Russia, which has given him asylum.
Lon Snowden says he wants his son to return to the United States at some point. But he says he thinks it's unlikely his son could have a fair trial, given public statements from government officials calling the younger Snowden a traitor.
Edward Snowden has been charged in federal court in Alexandria, Va., with violations of the Espionage Act.
Lon Snowden and Fein spoke Sunday with ABC's "This Week."
Snowden walks free in Russia; US angered by move
MOSCOW (AP) - For the first time since June 23rd, Edward Snowden is somewhere other than the Moscow airport. He was able to leave today and enter Russia after authorities granted him temporary asylum. There's no word on where he went. His lawyer says that will be kept secret, for security reasons.
The man who leaked details of secret National Security Agency surveillance programs took refuge at the airport as he tried to evade espionage charges back home.
Snowden now has asylum in Russia for a year -- but that can be extended indefinitely. And Snowden also has the right to seek Russian citizenship.
In a statement released by WikiLeaks, Snowden is quoted as saying that the Obama administration has shown "no respect for international or domestic law" over the past eight weeks. But he said, "in the end, the law is winning."
The White House -- which had demanded that Snowden be sent home to face prosecution -- is denouncing Russia's decision to grant him asylum. And Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham calls it "a game-changer in our relationship with Russia."
Edward Snowden got asylum in Russia, lawyer says
MOSCOW (AP) - A Russian lawyer for Edward Snowden says the National Security Agency leaker has received asylum in Russia for one year and left the transit zone of Moscow' airport.
Anatoly Kucherena said he handed over the papers to Snowden on Thursday. He said Snowden left Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport where he was stuck since his arrival from Hong Kong on June 23.
Kucherena said that Snowden's whereabouts will be kept secret for security reasons.
The U.S. has demanded that Russia send Snowden home to face prosecution for espionage, but President Vladimir Putin has dismissed the request.
Putin had said that Snowden could receive asylum in Russia on condition he stops leaking U.S. secrets. Kucherena has said Snowden accepted the condition.
UPDATE: Report: Snowden drops Russia asylum bid
MOSCOW (AP) - NSA leaker Edward Snowden has reportedly dropped his bid for asylum in Russia.
Russian news agencies are quoting President Vladimir Putin's spokesman as saying that Snowden withdrew his request when he learned about the terms Moscow has set out.
Putin said on Monday that Russia is ready to shelter Snowden as long as he stops leaking U.S. secrets.
Meanwhile several of the other countries where the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks says Snowden gas applied for asylum have said he cannot apply from abroad.
Officials in Germany, Norway, Austria, Poland, Finland and Switzerland say he must make his request on their soil.
Susan Rice: Snowden leaks have not weakened Obama
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The outgoing U.S. ambassador to the United Nations is downplaying the damage done by Edward Snowden's highly classified leaks.
Susan Rice says in an Associated Press interview that the disclosures of widespread surveillance have not significantly have weakened the Obama presidency or U.S. foreign policy. Rice insists that the U.S. will remain "the most influential, powerful and important country in the world."
Rice's remarks were her only public ones on Snowden and came in an interview as she prepared to leave the U.N. post and start her new job Monday as President Barack Obama's national security adviser.
She says it's too soon to judge the long-term effects. Rice says the U.S. will work through this as it has done with past problems.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, say Snowden's leaks damaged national security.
NSA leaker Snowden, believed to be on way to Moscow
MOSCOW (AP) — An Aeroflot flight from Hong Kong believed to be carrying a former National Security Agency contractor wanted by the United States has landed in Moscow.
Hong Kong's government said Edward Snowden was allowed to leave but did not say where he was headed.
Russia's state ITAR-Tass news agency cited an unnamed Aerflot official saying the Snowden was on Flight SU213, which landed on Sunday afternoon in Moscow.
The report said he intended to fly to Cuba on Monday and then on to Caracas, Venezuela.

Report: Chad Ochocinco wants to play for Miami Dolphins
If Chad Ochocinco gets his way, he'll be suiting up twice next year against the team that just released him.
Two days after the New England Patriots cut ties with Ochocinco after a dismal 2011 season, Ochocinco's wish for his next destination is the Miami Dolphins, CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reported on Saturday. La Canfora cites sources who have been in contact with Ochocinco.
The move would be beneficial on some fronts for both sides. Ochocinco has roots in South Florida, and he attended Miami Beach High School. And for the Dolphins, it would bring some star power to the team, something that owner Stephen Ross has always wanted but usually failed to bring to the organization.
In fact, the Dolphins might be the only fit for Ochocinco. La Canfora talked to people within the organizations of several mentioned possible landing spots — including the Jaguars, St. Louis Rams, Carolina Panthers, Dallas Cowboys, Baltimore Ravens and Oakland Raiders — and he "was told no way." La Canfora breaks down why the Dolphins and Ochocinco could be a perfect match:
He's been in great shape for several years now since a drop off a whole back. To me he's worth the risk on a one-year deal, especially for Miami, which isn't exactly loaded with receivers and offensive weapons.
And this much is for sure – the Dolphins could learn a thing or two from Ochocinco's branding and marketing abilities. In that realm, as well as social media, he is nothing short of a genius. He inherently gets it. It's part of his DNA.
Ochocinco, 34, played in 15 games last year with the Patriots, his only season with the Bill Belichick-coached club. He caught only 15 passes for 276 yards. He only had one catch in the Patriots' 21-17 Super Bowl loss to the New York Giants.
Meanwhile, it looks like Ochocinco got in a workout session Saturday with another controversial receiver looking for a team to play for next season.
Sliding on the field with @terrellowens for a quick 2 hour workout session…

Thorlos® CTPS: Protective Gear For Your Feet
When your job is protecting your country, the last thing you need to be thinking about is your feet. Nevertheless, foot issues follow ground, air and combat service support elements throughout all encounters. In the field, feet are prone to getting and staying wet from sweating, crossing canals and streams. The skin will get soft and easily blister if not properly cared for. In winter, you might be patrolling in the frigid mountains where your feet can get cold or even frostbitten. Experience has taught us you can't afford go barefoot or get blisters or infections on your feet in the field. Combat troops should not have to carry someone who could have taken better care of his or her feet. That's the job of Thorlos clinically-tested padded socks (CTPS) for military boots.
"My Marine son says these are the best boot socks ever! Whether wearing his jungle boots or combat boots, he loves these socks for the comfort, length, durability and elasticity to roll up skivvies. The Marine Corps has taught my son the best thing you can do every day is take care of your feet with clean socks. They may wear the same clothes for 7-10 days straight in the field, but are always told to air out their feet and change their socks. If my Marine is happy, Mom is happy!" Patty M.
Our mission is to provide unprecedented foot protection and foot comfort in support of the critical role combat infantry and special operations forces play in military operations. As such, we designed Thorlos clinically-tested military boot socks to be protective gear for your feet.
Thorlos core technology is engineered padding that has been clinically-tested and shown in independent studies to reduce:
- Blisters
- Pain
- Pressures
- Moisture
These benefits make Thorlos part of your protective gear for your feet.
"I'm currently going through basic training and I recommend these to anyone who needs to wear a heavy boot all day. I've never had a problem with them staying up and after 9 weeks I still have healthy, un-damaged feet (no blisters, ever!) Great buy!" Barrett F.
"These socks are super warm, fabulous, and cushiony!!! Love the extra coverage and protection against the spots that usually get blisters. My other boot socks do not compare!" Jeffrey C.
Thorlos Trusted by The Best of The Best
Thorlos clinically-tested padded military boot socks have been put to the ultimate test by Recon, SEAL teams and Special Forces Units. The ST (Mountaineering boot sock) was the sock of choice of the Special Forces units of the U.S. military for cold weather operations in Afghanistan, and it is the official sock of the Indian Defense Forces. They chose Thorlos because these CTPS provided added protection and comfort while they were deployed, especially in mountainous areas where the terrain features rock faces so sharp they can cut through boots. Your buddies have your back; let Thorlos have your feet.
"Sent these to my stepson, a Navy Seal, stationed overseas. He wrote us ""Those socks are seriously amazing, if it weren't for the color of them I'd wear them with my civilian clothes lol... they're like floating on air in your boots..." Joy R.
Foot Protection for All Conditions and Branches of the Military
They say an army moves on its stomach. But we know that an army moves on its feet.
So we make five different military socks; all utilize clinically- tested engineered padding to protect those feet in all conditions:
- .Combat Boot Sock (MCB) For extended field operations in varied terrains and climates.Over-calf length. Available in 5 colors: desert sand, coyote brown, olive, foliage green and black.
- Military Boot Sock (MB) For extended field operations in varied terrains and climates. Mid-calf length. Available in 4 colors: desert sand, coyote brown, foliage green and black.
- Desert Boot Sock (MLH) For hot weather climates. Available in 3 colors: desert sand,coyote brown and sage.
- Anti-Fatigue Boot Sock (MS) Leg support for extended field operations in varied terrains and climates. Over-calf length. Available in 4 colors: desert sand, coyote brown, foliage green and black.
- Physical Training Sock (MT) Crew-length PT socks.
Thorlos Customers Committed to Active American Forces
We have developed a program whereby our customers are invited to donate Thorlos CTPS combat boot socks to troops in the active theater. They can purchase our Thorlos clinically-tested padded military boot socks at our manufacturing cost. We then work with other supporting organizations to get the donated socks to our troops. It is truly the cause we are most proud of supporting.
Curious but not yet convinced whether Thorlos CTPS can help you address your foot pain? We invite you to try your first pair free…just paying shipping and handling.
Click this link to see our FIRST PAIR FREE OFFER.
Because of the demands placed on your feet during military duty we do not make Lite Padded Socks (LPS) for this purpose. You need the foot protection provided by our clinically-tested padded socks (CTPS).
Brand Promise Guarantee
For a job this serious, we know there is no such thing as a trial period…there are no rehearsals in military services once you cross the forward edge of the battle area. On the other hand, we know money is tight and company supply socks are free. So we stand behind our product. If you don't agree that with Thorlos, your feet feel better than when wearing general issue socks from the company supply, we'll refund your money. No questions asked.

I have been looking all over for this kind of sock. It is a perfect fit for work boots and just as advertised, I finally have socks that prevents blisters. I will be buying more in the future!!
These are the best socks I have ever owned!
04/17/14 | By Stephen S .
I wear cowboy boots everyday and could never find socks that would stay up all day without sliding down around my ankles. These socks stay up where they are supposed to be all day and they are sooooooooooo comfortable to wear. Great cushion on the bottom and they do not make my feet sweat when it is hot out. I love theses socks and they are the only socks I wear now! PS-They wear like iron also!
These socks are great!

great socks, great comfort
04/16/14 | By Robert H .
Unfortunately, you have to be careful. The threading rips easily. Two pair lost their threading at the top of the stock and the stocking ran down a couple of levels, rendering the socks unusable. This is a costly run in the sock. The socks are expensive and to only get one or two wearings before they rip, run, and become undone is quite unfortunate for me. The socks are wonderful otherwise.
04/11/14 | By Terri E .
I've worn this model for years. Military uniform sock. This latest edition is much longer and consequentially, stay up (yeah). Good in temperate clime or everyday use. I wear a different Thorlo sock for cold weather in the field.
Great socks for an older guy!

Got these over the calf socks because the veins in the lower legs aren't what they used to be. These socks don't interfere with the returning blood, so they don't leave deep impressions at the end of the day the way other socks do. I use them on a daily basis and have retired all of my other socks.

GREAT for Ruck

After seeing an increase in enrollment over the last few years, Brescia University is expanding its campus.
"It's very important that with the increased number of students we provide the services that they need, not only for their academic work, but also for their extra curricular work," said Rev. Larry Hostetter, the President of Bresica University.
The university paid $350,000 for the building and property.

The university waived late-registration fees that would ordinarily have been charged beginning Wednesday, $100 for students signing up on or after the first day. That step could help JSU avoid a third-straight year of declining enrollment.
As of Monday, early figures showed 8,147 students signed up for classes, 300 fewer than were listed on a similar report last year and about 1,000 less than last year's final fall enrollment of 9,161.
Rebecca Turner, JSU's vice president for academic and student affairs, said she thinks the university will match last year's enrollment figure.
"Monday students were back, but they weren't all here," Turner said. "I sense that we are going to be pretty close to where it was last year."
Turner said the decision to waive the late registration fee wasn't linked to the slow sign-up figures, but instead to a change in the school calendar. Tuition and fees were due in early August this year because classes started a week earlier than normal.
But, Turner said, the move could help enrollment, too.
"That's not what led us to that," said said. "Of course, we thought it would help."
The university is also compiling lists of students who attended last year but haven't registered to return this fall, including 100 who would be seniors. Turner said she's asking department heads to reach out to those students.
"Sometimes life interferes with school and they just need someone to reach out to them," Turner said. "We think that's a good strategy."
She added that approach worked in the case of at least one art student who administrators contacted by Facebook .
"The guy said, 'I thought it was too late,'" Turner said. "It's really making a difference."
If JSU's enrollment falls, it will be the third year in a row the number has dipped. After hitting an all-time high of 9,504 in 2010, the university's enrollment slid to 9,490 in 2011 and again to 9,161 in 2012.
The enrollment high and the two-year decline were reflective of a trend among JSU's peer institutions in the state. Administrators said universities have been hard hit by changes to federally funded financial aid programs such as Pell Grants.
Turner said JSU's students were hit particularly hard by changes to federal aid programs. Roughly 80 percent of JSU students receive Pell Grants or some other form of aid, she said.
Enrollment at Troy University fell to 14,091 in 2012 from 15,498 in 2011 and from 16,117 in 2010, according to figures from the Alabama Commission on Higher Education.
"Any changes that potentially reduce the amount of aid given to students impacts every university," said Buddy Starling, dean of enrollment at Troy.
Starling said Troy's enrollment was also impacted by increasing admission requirements. He said in recent years Troy increased the scores on the ACT high school students, as well as raising the required grade-point average for transfer students. The school also raised the required scores on GED exams.
"We began to focus on quality," he said.
Starling added that he believes new student enrollment – which includes freshman and transfer students – will increase to 2,092 from 1,800 last year.
"We suspect that will have a positive impact on overall enrollment," Starling said.
The University of South Alabama was able to keep enrollment from falling between 2010 and 2011, though it increased by just two students. USA did, however, experience a dip in 2012, when enrollment fell to 14,887 from 15,009.
Keith Ayers, a spokesman for USA, said the school will grow this year.
"It's an absolute certainty that we're going to be up," Ayers said.

All enrolled students with a communicable disease that may affect the health and safety of others MUST advise Student Health Services through the Student Health Center (SHC). Examples of communicable diseases under this policy include, but are not limited to, Viral Hepatitis, MRSA Infections, TB, and mumps. Prior to participation in school activities, all students are required to have their communicable disease risk status assessed. Students with a known communicable disease may be asked to consent to release appropriate medical records, be evaluated in person with a history and physical in the SHC, obtain diagnostic testing or be referred to a specialist depending on the nature of the communicable disease. The student is responsible for any costs (some of which may be covered by medical insurance) involved in evaluation of his/her condition.
The Staff at the SHC has an obligation to support the welfare of patients, other students, faculty and staff on the KUMC campus. Therefore, a decision about the risk the student poses to the health and safety of others on the KUMC campus or while performing student duties at an affiliated institution will be the responsibility of the SHC Staff.
If there are restrictions or accommodations that need to occur, the school and/or the Equal Opportunity Office will be contacted concerning SHC recommendations without giving specific medical information unless the student signs consent for release of such medical information. The school will be the final determinate of any accommodations that can be reasonably made to allow a student to participate to the fullest potential and complete their education requirements without compromising the health, safety and welfare of others on the KUMC campus and affiliates.
