National security
American response in Syria
- See also: United States involvement in Syria
More than 100 House lawmakers signed a letter urging President Barack Obama to call Congress back into session if he planned to use military force in Syria.[9]
Rep. Scott Rigell wrote in the letter in August 2013, "engaging our military in Syria when no direct threat to the United States exists and without prior congressional authorization would violate the separation of powers that is clearly delineated in the Constitution."[9][10]
The members of Congress believed that Obama should have asked Congress for permission before engaging in Libya. The letter asked, "If the use of 221 Tomahawk cruise missles, [sic] 704 Joint Direct Attack Munitions, and 42 Predator Hellfire missiles expended in Libya does not constitute 'hostilities,' what does?"[10]
The letter stated, "If you deem that military action in Syria is necessary, Congress can reconvene at your request. We stand ready to come back into session, consider the facts before us, and share the burden of decisions made regarding U.S. involvement in the quickly escalating Syrian conflict."[10]
A total of 98 Republicans signed the letter. Capuano was one of 18 Democratic members to sign the letter.[10]
Capuano voted in opposition of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[11]
DHS Appropriations
Capuano voted in opposition of HR 2217 - the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[11]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Capuano voted in favor of House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[11]
Capuano did not vote on HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities.[12] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[11]
Farm bill
On January 29, 2014, the U.S. House approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, known as the Farm Bill.[13] The bill passed by a vote of 251-166. The nearly 1,000-page bill provides for the reform and continuation of agricultural and other programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that would kick in when prices drop.[14][15] However, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[15] Capuano voted with 102 other Democratic representatives against the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 15, 2014, the Republican-run House approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[16][17] The House voted 359-67 for the 1,582 page bill, with 64 Republicans and three Democrats voting against the bill.[17] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[18] It included a 1 percent increase in the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel, a $1 billion increase in Head Start funding for early childhood education, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency, and the protection of the Affordable Care Act from any drastic cuts. Capuano joined with the majority of the Democratic party and voted in favor of the bill.[16][17]
King Amendment
Capuano signed a letter sent to Collin Peterson in August 2013, asking him to keep Steve King's amendment out of the final Farm Bill.[19] The "Protect Interstate Commerce Act" amendment prevents states from applying their own laws on agricultural products to agricultural products from another state.[20]. King introduced the amendment in response to a law in California, requiring a larger size cage for egg-producing chickens. King represents Iowa, which is a large egg producer.
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[21] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[22] Capuano voted against the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[23]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[24] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Capuano voted for HR 2775.[25]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Capuano voted against House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States.[26] The vote largely followed party lines.[27]
Repealing Obamacare
Capuano has voted against all attempts to repeal or delay the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.[28]
Social issues
Capuano voted against HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196. The purpose of the bill is to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.[29]
Previous congressional sessions

Capuano voted against the PATRIOT Act as well as against the extension of the law.[30]

He was 1 of 172 Democrats that voted in favor of the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257-167 vote on January 1, 2013.[31]

VANCEBORO – The West Craven Eagles (2-0) were about as much of a well-oiled machine as a football team can be Friday – for about three quarters.
The Eagles exploded out to a 29-10 halftime lead over the South Central Falcons and advanced their advantage to 50-22, before the visitors came storming back.
South Central scored 24 unanswered points in the second half to come within four points of the Eagles at 50-46 with 2:59 remaining in the game.
West Craven's Kenny McDaniel darted up the middle for a 24-yard gain and what turned out to be the game-sealing first down.
"There is no question that we worked on conditioning as hard as anyone in the offseason," West Craven coach Matt Riggsbee said. "Also, there is no question that these guys have a ton of heart, but we are going to have to find some more depth on our team."
The Falcons returned two kickoffs for touchdowns against the Eagles' special teams unit – one of which was the second half opening return – marking the second week in a row West Craven was stunned to begin the second half.
The Eagles' had two pick-6 interception returns called back for penalties.
Still, the Eagles amassed 410 total yards, as they had 299 rushing yards as a team and quarterback Alkeim Harley threw for 111 and one score.
"I firmly believe that we practice special teams as much as any team in America," Riggsbee said. "With the same 11 on offense, defense and special teams, we are going to have to get some things straight."
In addition to Harley throwing for 111 yards and a touchdown, he ran for 58 and had three rushing touchdowns.
"Our O-line was blocking real good tonight," Harley said. "I was seeing things and adjusting plays by myself and the guys all played real hard with me."
Harley is part of a talented senior class of Eagles that has not yet enjoyed the winning ways of West Craven's past.
"I'm a senior and since my freshman year, we have been on losing streaks and we are tired of losing," Harley said. "I think that with the South Central game tonight and Edenton last week, people see that we are going to fight with all that we have."
Tyrone Brown, who caught the only touchdown pass for the Eagles, also ran in a score, as did senior Tyquail Raynor and sophomore Danny Harvey.
Harvey scored on a 38-yard pitch from Harley, that was timed perfectly and Harvey dashed to paydirt.
"Alkeim (Harley) and I have a really good connection back there and he knew just when to pitch it and I tucked it in and took off," Harvey said.
The Eagles will take on the New Bern Bears (0-2) next week at Clay Jordan Stadium in an intra-county rivalry.
"We have been losing to New Bern since I was in the eighth grade and we are tired of it. There will be good athletes on both sides, but we definitely want to beat them," Harley said.
Kickoff next week is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Popper extends JUnit to allow you to specify theories. Theories are assertions about your code's behavior that may be true over (potentially) infinite sets of input values. You might find it useful to pose theories about your Groovy code too.
Let's consider how we might test the following class (example taken from the Popper web site):
With traditional JUnit code, we might test it as follows:
This tests the method for one
amount value and one
m value. Next steps might be to triangulate so that additional values are also tested. In general though, it might be difficult to know when you have done enough values (when to stop) and also what invariants of your class may hold if you simply keep adding more tests without sufficient refactoring. With these factors in mind, Popper provides facilities to make invariants and preconditions of your classes obvious as well as providing an extensible framework for adding new test values.
Here is how you might use Popper to test the above class. First, we have avoided using Hamcrest style assertions in our Groovy code. Groovy's built-in
assert method usually allows such assertions to be expressed very elegantly without any additional framework. We'll create a small helper class to allow Groovy-style assertions to be used for method pre-conditions:
Now, our test becomes:
We have added an additional log variable to this example to explain how Popper works. By default, Popper will use any public fields in our test as test data values
VAL1 through
VAL4 in our example. It will determine all combinations of the available variables and call the
multiplyIsInverseOfDivide() for each combination. This is a very crude way to select test instance values but works for simple tests like this one.
You should also note the
assume statement. In our example, we haven't catered for
m being 0 which would result in a divide by zero error. The assume statement allows this method precondition to be made explicit. When Popper calls the test method, it will silently ignore any test data combinations which fail the method preconditions. This keeps the preconditions obvious and simplifies creating test data sets.
Here is the output from running this test:
We wouldn't normally recommend sending this kind of information to standard out when running your test, but here it is very illustrative. Note that all four test values have been used for the
amount variable but only three values have been used for
m. This is exactly what we want here.
Popper supports an extensible framework for specifying more elaborate algorithms for selecting test data. Instead of the public variables, we can define our own parameter supplier. Here is one which supplies data between a
first value and a
last value. First the annotation definition (coded in Java):
And the backing supplier (coded in Groovy):
Now our Groovy test example could become:
When run, this yields:
The supplied test values for the test method are
(-4, -2), (-4, -1), (-4, 0), ..., (2, 5). The data where m is equal to 0 will be skipped as soon as the
assume statement is reached.
Bowling Example
We can also Groovy to make the bowling example a little more succinct:

Guidance Note on Recovery: Environment15 Sep 2010
The document outlines successes and failures of past practice in dealing with disaster debris, implementing environmentally sound reconstruction, promoting environmentally sustainable livelihoods and rehabilitating ecosystems.
There is currently an abundance of documents, plans and policies that address common issues faced in the mitigation, preparedness and relief phases of natural disaster management. Yet for disaster recovery planners and policy makers, there is no cohesive documented body of knowledge. It is conceded that preventive measures are vital to reducing the more costly efforts of responding to disasters. Nevertheless, in the post disaster situation, the availability of knowledge products reflecting past practices and lessons learned is critical for effective and sustainable recovery. Unquestionably, a wealth of experience and expertise exists within governments and organizations; however the majority of this knowledge is never documented, compiled, nor shared. Filling this knowledge gap is a key objective of the International Recovery Platform and The Guidance Note on Recovery: Environment, along with its companion booklets, is an initial step in documenting, collecting and sharing disaster recovery experiences and lessons. IRP hopes that this collection of the successes and failures of past experiences in disaster recovery will serve to inform the planning and implementation of future recovery initiatives. The aim is not to recommend actions, but to place before the reader a menu of options.
The Guidance Note on Recovery: Environment is primarily intended for use by policymakers, planners, and implementers of local, regional and national government bodies interested or engaged in facilitating a more responsive, sustainable, and risk-reducing recovery process. Yet, IRP recognizes that governments are not the sole actors in disaster recovery and believes that the experiences collected in this document can benefit the many other partners working together to build back better.
The Guidance Note on Recovery: Environment draws from documented experiences of past and present recovery efforts, collected through a desk review and consultations with relevant experts. These experiences and lessons learned are classified into four major issues:
1) Dealing with Disaster Debris
2) Implementing Environmentally Sound Reconstruction
3) Promoting Environmentally Sustainable Livelihoods
4) Rehabilitating Ecosystems
The materials are presented in the form of cases. The document provides analysis of many of the cases, highlighting key lessons and noting points of caution and clarification. The case study format has been chosen in order to provide a richer description of recovery approaches, thus permitting the reader to draw other lessons or conclusions relative to a particular context.
It is recognized that, while certain activities or projects presented in this Guidance Note have met with success in a given context, there is no guarantee that the same activity will generate similar results across all contexts. Cultural norms, socioeconomic contexts, gender relations and myriad other factors will influence the process and outcome of any planned activity. Therefore, the following case studies are not intended as prescriptive solutions to be applied, but rather as experiences to inspire, to generate contextually relevant ideas, and where appropriate, to adapt and apply.

LECOM Bradenton medical students left quite an impression on parents and children at the Lakewood Ranch YMCA's Healthy Kids Day.
|LECOM first-year medical student Daniel Kim works with Alex Vehling and Frankie Vallor during the YMCA's Healthy Kids Day in Bradenton, Fla.
At the LECOM poison prevention booth, medical students Min Qi and Daniel Kim demonstrated how certain foods and drinks have striking similarities to household cleaners, chemicals and adult medications.
"Which one do you think is safe to drink?" said Qi, holding two cups: one with a blue sports drink and the other with blue window cleaner. "If you are not sure if something is safe to eat or drink, always ask your parents first."
"That is so scary," said one parent after watching the demonstration.
Children were encouraged to use their sense of smell.
"Although they may look the same, this cup of Pine-Sol has a much different smell to it than this cup of apple juice," Kim said.
Across the gym, LECOM Bradenton medical students Robby Edo and Katherine Guthrie were doing push-ups and sit-ups with the children. The two encouraged the children to stay active and keep away from sugary foods.
On Healthy Kids Day, YMCAs from across the country opened their doors to nearly 800,000 children, parents and community members for an event that celebrates healthy living, encourages families to embrace a more active lifestyle and introduces tools and strategies for making changes as a family.

Product Reviews
Rated 5 out of 5 by mdpa from Excellent! We were very limited on what drop-in sink would replace our 60 year old Crane that was looking its age, and whose Crane faucets couldn't be replaced with 2013 hardware. This Kohler model fit the bill, including giving the Blush color I didn't want to give up. For a very modest price, we have a mini-remodel that looks terrific. There is more splash with this shallow basin, but it's well worth a quick wipe up to get the beautiful, clean lines that the model provides. Thanks, build.com and thanks, Kohler!

Rated 5 out of 5 by TRexx from Good quality, matches description Needed large sinks to cover a cracked pre-formed corian sink. I cut out the old sink portion and these fit great right into the new hole. The guide included was great for measuring and cutting. The sinks are not deep, but adquate and look good with our countertops (we treated the corian to make it look like granite). Our friends are raving about the overall bathroom sink transformation!

Rated 5 out of 5 by constructor from Nice sink This sink is well made, has an overflow, and has lots of flat area around the bowl for sitting soap dishes, tootbrush holders etc. The bowl is quite shallow looking, but when used with the recommended Kohler faucet it doesn't splash back.

The curriculum provides a firm understanding of the basic institutions of the criminal justice system. Students are also exposed to criminological theory and diversity courses, which help them understand the complex relationship between the individual, society and the criminal justice system. The program stresses effective writing and analytical skills. Students are afforded the opportunity to earn credit through internship placements, including Kent State's fully accredited police academy.
All students in the Criminology and Justice Studies major select at least one concentration from the six offered, in consultation with a faculty advisor or the undergraduate coordinator for Criminology and Justice Studies. Consultations with faculty enable students to make informed choices about which combination of courses will maximize their preparation for future careers and possibly graduate education.
|Career opportunities related to criminology and justice studies interests and credentials include positions in criminal and regulatory law enforcement affiliated with a wide variety of municipal/city, county, state, regional and national agencies; correctional positions, including guards, counselors, probation and parole officers and supervisors; homeland security; courthouse security; park/forest rangers; private security services, including for businesses, transportation systems, hospitals and campuses; juvenile detention, counseling and supervision; investigative and criminal history research positions for courts or private businesses; victim services and victim advocacy.
In combination with relevant graduate degrees, students may also qualify for professional positions in legal practice; teaching; policy research including applied statistics and crime mapping; social work, clinical psychology, counseling or therapy; and forensics expert or technician (with cross-training in fields such as psychology, biology, chemistry, physics, anthropology, accounting, computer science or linguistics).
|General Admissions for Freshman Students: Students most likely to be admitted and succeed at the Kent Campus are those who have graduated with at least 16 units of the recommended college preparatory curriculum in high school, who have achieved a cumulative high school grade point average of 2.5 or higher (on a 4.0 scale), and whose composite ACT score is 21 or better (980 combined critical reading and math SAT score).

Comments about Topeak Joe Blow Ace Floor Pump W/SMRTHD:
On the 60PSI setting which uses both barrels to pump from, this pump moves massive air volume. On two different sets of wheels I've been able to seat tubeless tires on the bead using the pump. I don't have to drag out the air compressor anymore and can change tubeless tires at an event if I need to.
Have a road bike? Flip the lever over to the 120 setting, and it's very efficient there as well. I've had no reason to try the 260PSI setting, so I can't comment on that.

The RockShox Sid XX features a superlight design and BlackBox alloy crown steerer. The RockShox Sid XX has all of the stiffness you need in a lightweight package. The RockShox Sid XX is one of the most well known cross country race forks on the market because it truly is the best of both worlds. The Sid features Motion Control DNA. Mountain bikers now tackle rougher trails and RockShox's Motion Control DNA is the evolution of RockShox damping technology. Motion Control offers great adjustability, superior damping performance, low maintenance, and is easy to service. To add stiffness to the lowers, RockShox has embedded Power Bulges. Power Bulges are material reinforcements in the lower leg at the bushing. To create the perfect ride, you are able to externally adjust the rebound. The XLoc remote allows you to open and lockout your fork without having to look down at the crown. Therefore, your eyes stay on what's most important, the trail ahead.

Without embellishing the situation, I ride. A lot! Of my 11-bike quiver the Niner Rip 9 I just built with this shock is the bomb. JensonUSA is my store and I go nowhere else.
If you want an Enduro rocket that climbs like a goat and has what it takes to cruise the downhill of the Enduro or XC scene, this is the set up. 29er is big and that takes getting used to, but if you want kegs for legs, "just ride"

AYDEN — Hunter Crafford wants to earn his wings.
He's going to play football while he does.
Crafford, a 2012 graduate of Ayden-Grifton, signed his certificate of intent to play football at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado during National Signing Day on Wednesday.
Crafford, a linebacker during the Chargers' run to the 2011 state 1AA title game, spent last fall playing post-graduate football at Fork Union Military Academy in Virginia.
His signature — the certificate, unlike a National Letter of Intent, "is a non-binding agreement that signifies an athlete's commitment to follow through with the appointment process and allows them to participate in signing day for publicity purposes," the school said in a statement on its website Wednesday — is one step in many for the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Crafford on his way to fulfilling his dream of becoming an Air Force fighter pilot.
Due to its strict admission requirements, Air Force does not give out athletic scholarships nor does it comment or announce its recruiting classes, its website said.
"It's about life choices that will set me up for the rest of my life," said Crafford, who returned to Ayden-Grifton to have his ceremony. "I'll be able to retire at an early age and have a great life.
"I'm excited. To finally make it, it's like a dream come true."
While not currently enrolled in school, Crafford has been busy working out to stay in shape and has been working with his father, Scott, who does a little of everything.
During his semester at Fork Union Crafford said he was able to continue to work on his game — "kind of like a redshirt year," he said.
"It was just a great experience for me, learning football and learning to be a better player," Crafford said.
He'll take that training to Colorado Springs, where he's scheduled to report in late June, he said.
"This is a great accomplishment. It shows the hard work that he's put into it," Chargers head football coach Paul Cornwell said. "He's a guy that has a lot of desire and has really worked his way into becoming an outstanding football player."

text: I often hear that Judaism in general is not a very "otherworldy religion", at least not to the degree that other Abrahamic faiths are; and that that is why there are many people who call themselves "Jews," but are not very religous (like Humanistic Judaism and many in Reform Judaism). Instead, it has become more like a cultural tradition or a practical philosophy (doing Bar Mitzvah or Passover is simply not much different in significance from celebrating a birthday or 4th of July for some of them). The religion sounds really strict with all the kosher laws and stuff. But nevertheless, why is it sometimes seen as not being very "otherworldly"? Is it because it places more emphasis on physically obeying rules and laws (practical matters)rather than on having inner faith?

Keith shot an 8 down and I think it was around 1010. I don't remember the number.
Just guessing 4 or 5 down would probably be 1000 rated.

Andrew Hore dislocated his shoulder in the Hurricanes' loss to the Waratahs and could miss New Zealand's June Tests.
Hore reluctantly left the field after 22 minutes and was later sent to hospital for scans. X-rays cleared him of a broken bone, but the injury could jeopardise his ability to play for the All Blacks this June.
The Canes missed his leadership in the 32-16 loss, as well as his value at scrum-time.
'It was [big],' said Canes centre Conrad Smith. 'He's a guy who has been brilliant all year. He's the guy, when we've been down to talk us up. There's a few of us that have been talking, but he's the voice. He's been our leader all year and it was tough to lose him.
'Obviously when he went off for good we knew it was something serious because he wouldn't go off for just a niggle.'

The AVID Ascend featuring T-speed rated sizes is Yokohama´s first mass-produced Standard Touring All-Season tire line in the United States using Yokohama´s Orange Oil technology and branded with their BluEarth eco-friendly identification. Developed for the drivers of coupes, sedans, minivans and crossover vehicles, the AVID Ascend is designed to blend long tread wear, low rolling resistance and all-season traction, even in light snow. Yokohama BluEarth branding is used to identify an ecologically friendly series of tires that are designed to deliver environmentally, human and socially friendly solutions for drivers and their vehicles. Orange Oil technology uses oil extracted from renewable orange peels to improve the molecular bond between natural and synthetic rubber to enhance tire tread life, vehicle fuel efficiency and traction in all seasons.
The AVID Ascend features a mildly asymmetric tread design consisting of three ride zones that focus on dry grip, water evacuation and wintertime traction.Large outboard shoulder blocks are connected by tread block bridges to maintain tire contact with the road that helps enhance dry response and cornering stability.The continuous center rib provides constant rubber-to-road contact to enhance straight-line tracking while its tapered outboard edge promotes more-even wear.Cross grooves and four circumferential grooves help evacuate water from under the tread to increase hydroplaning resistance and promote wet traction.Yokohama´s 3D Adaptive Sipes provide more tread block rigidity for longer wear, while their biting edges increase wet and wintertime traction.Inboard tread blocks feature higher density 3D Adaptive Sipes to provide additional biting edges that increase winter traction in light snow.The tire´s internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon on top of polyester body plies.
not a lot of tire choices for this car but we were happy to give Yokies a try after the OEM Dunlops wore out. Quite tire and very good on wet roads. Would rate the dry handling to be superior. No experience with snow as we switch over to Blizzaks in the winter (due to the Dunlop being a summer tire). Recommend

Thank you fellow reviewers. You are right this tire is awesome. My 2007 Camry feels like a brand new car ride. Quiet, soft ride and handles great. I just got the tires and hopefully they will be good for the long haul. This review site made me fill in everything, but I really don't know how they handle in snow, rain and treadwear because I just bought them.

If you want "QUIET" touring tires.Then say no more.These tires are really smooth & quiet.They certainly put the Kumho tires that were on my 2011 Sonata to shame.These are whisper quiet & handle just fine.They have very deep tread rating.They are 75,000 tires.Sometimes they won't be easy to find.The best place if you have one in your area.Is go to a "Discount Tires" chain location.Tell them you want the Yokohama Avid Accend" Grand Touring tires provided they come in your cars size.They will order them & have in 3 days time.I got mine from Discount Tire in Daytona Beach,Florida at an excellent price.I paid $550 for a set out the door,then I got a $75 visa card in the mail rebate,awesome tires for $475 a set.I get lifetime repairs,rotates & speed balance.They can't be beat at Discount Tires company.

I´ve been driving for 50 years--half a century--and I have never experienced such a dramatic difference with a change of tires. Either these tires are really good or my previous treads were awfully bad. These tires were recommended (along with five other brand models) as all-season replacement treads by Consumer Reports. After finding this website I was slightly apprehensive with consideration of their purchase with only six reviews listed, but so far I couldn´t be more delighted with the purchase and, of course, the ride. Upon leaving the service facility I immediately noticed both the uncharacteristically smooth ride and a remarkable mitigation of road noise; my wife was also duly impressed. I take express ramps pretty aggressively, and the grip with these treads was as sure as I could ever hope for. I also just returned from my first drive in the rain with these tires and did everything I could to make them hydroplane but couldn´t make them slip. Remember: This is a Honda Civic--a light car. Two of the categories I have yet to be qualified to rate are: Snow & Treadwear. So I gave them each a hopeful 4 rating. I didn´t want to wait to write this review in case someone else was considering these tires. If you buy them, I hope you´re as satisfied as I´ve been so far. Don´t forget to rotate every 6000 miles or every other oil change; otherwise, don´t blame my review.

Not even 30,000 miles on these tires and rotated every 3000 with my oil change. Doesn't handle well at all in the snow even with front wheel drive. VERY DISAPPOINTED....never again will I purchase Yokohoma tires.
