PED comment costs Jack Clark, co-host jobs
ST. LOUIS (AP) ? Former St. Louis Cardinals star Jack Clark is out of his sports talk radio job along with co-host after saying Albert Pujols took performance-enhancing drugs.
Clark said on the air last week on WGNU in St. Louis that Pujols' former trainer, Chris Mihlfeld, told him 10 years ago that he injected PEDs into Pujols, the former Cardinals great now in his second season with the Angels but sidelined by a foot injury.
Pujols responded with a vehement denial on Friday night and said he planned to take legal action against Clark and his employers.
Early Saturday, the company that owns the show hosted by Clark and Kevin Slaten, insideSTL Enterprises LLC, said in a statement that Clark "is no longer associated with the company," then later cancelled the show, costing Slaten his job, too.
"Any opinions, views or statements made by him (Clark) strictly reflect his own personal views and do not reflect the views of insideSTL," the statement read. "insideSTL Enterprises, LLC and any related companies have never asserted and do not assert that Albert Pujols has ever used steroids or any other type of performing enhancing drug."
In his statement on Friday, Pujols said he planned legal action to send a message "that you cannot act in a reckless manner, like they have, and get away with it." As of Monday no lawsuit had been filed by Pujols in U.S. District Court in St. Louis, or in state court in Missouri.
Mihlfeld told ESPN.com that Clark's comments "are simply not true. I have known Albert Pujols since he was 18 years old, and he would never use illegal drugs in any way."
Slaten told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that he plans to sue over his termination. Clark told the newspaper he was weighing a lawsuit. A telephone listing for Clark could not be found. A message seeking comment from Slaten on Monday was not returned. Messages left with the Albert Pujols Foundation in St. Louis also were not returned.
Pujols spent 11 seasons in St. Louis before signing with the Angels prior to the 2012 season. Clark, 57, played three of his 18 seasons in St. Louis and was part of National League pennant-winning teams in 1985 and 1987.

FDA announces voluntary recall for Specialty Compounding products
(Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said on Sunday that Specialty Compounding LLC will voluntary recall its full line of sterile products used to inject drugs, citing concerns about bacterial bloodstream infections.
The FDA said none of the company's products purchased after May 9 should be used and that they should be quarantined and returned to Specialty Compounding.
The company, which makes specialty products used to inject drugs that have been personalized for patients, first announced the recall on Friday. FDA spokesman Curtis Allen said the agency followed the company's statement with its own press release to publicize the recall more widely.
The products being recalled were distributed directly to patients in all 50 U.S. states, except for North Carolina, as well as to hospitals in Texas.
The FDA said 15 patients in Texas developed bacterial bloodstream infections after receiving calcium gluconate injections. Calcium gluconate typically helps patients that have low calcium levels.
"The FDA believes that use of these products would create an unacceptable risk for patients," said Dr. Janet Woodcock, director of FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
Cedar Park, Texas-based Specialty Compounding was not immediately available to comment.

Cameroun - Football: Jean-Baptiste Bisseck quitte Canon de Yaounde
C'est ? la fin du match de MTN Elite One opposant Canon de Yaound? ? Renaissance de Ngoumou, (3-1), dimanche dernier que Jean-Baptiste Bisseck a annonc? son d?part. Le coach du Kpa-Kum ?voque des raisons personnelles? pour expliquer cette d?cision, notamment un recyclage qui se profile ? l'horizon. Mais il y a ??galement des sollicitations hors du Cameroun?, affirme le technicien. Ce dernier quitte le club de Nkolndongo alors que celui-ci pointe ? la 4e place du classement provisoire de MTN Elite One avec surtout aucun match perdu depuis le d?but de la phase retour.
Et si on peut s'interroger sur ce d?part ? sept journ?es de la fin du championnat national de football, Jean-Baptiste Bisseck rappelle qu'il a pos? les fondations de l'?quipe. ?Le staff, avec qui je travaille depuis, peut g?rer le groupe. D'ailleurs, lors de mon pr?c?dent stage, l'encadrement s'est valablement illustr?. Je n'ai pas d'inqui?tude ? ce sujet?, a-t-il expliqu?. Si le nom de son adjoint, Eloundou Kisito, est cit? pour le remplacer, rien n'est officiel du c?t? du Canon. Mais on pourrait difficilement imaginer l'arriv?e d'un nouvel entra?neur dans le contexte actuel. M?me si on n'est jamais ? l'abri d'une surprise. Pourrait-on s'attendre ? revoir Jean-Baptiste Bisseck ? Nkolndongo un de ces jours? ?Si je reviens au Cameroun, ce sera forc?ment au Canon?, rassure-t-il.

Cruz again raps Obama's health care law
AMES, Iowa (AP) ? Sen. Ted Cruz on Saturday continued his call for cutting off funding for President Barack Obama's health care law and told conservative Christians that congressional lawmakers can't be counted on to do it.
The Texas Republican, a tea-party favorite and a possible presidential candidate in 2016, drew a standing ovation at the Family Leadership Summit with his denouncement of the health care initiative labeled "Obamacare" by its critics.
"That reaction right there shows how we win this fight," Cruz said. "If I was sitting in the Senate cloakroom, the reaction would be fundamentally different. If we have to depend on Washington, it will never be done."
As he has in remarks to other conservatives, Cruz asserted that a grassroots effort would be needed. "The only way we win this fight is if the American people rise up and hold our elected officials accountable," he said.
Cruz has been part of a push by some conservative lawmakers to close the government temporarily this fall ? by refusing to fund federal operations beyond Sept. 30 ? if that's the only way to cut off money for Obama's health care law. Other Republicans have dismissed the tactic as counterproductive and even dangerous for Republicans seeking re-election next year.
Last Tuesday the party's most recent presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, told donors that "there are better ways to remove Obamacare" and predicted that a shutdown effort would result in the health care law being funded anyway, Republicans suffering at the polls and Americans being unhappy.
Asked about the Romney remarks, Cruz told reporters at the Iowa event: "There are lots of folks that can share their views. In my view, No. 1, there's bipartisan agreement Obamacare isn't working. No. 2, this is the single best opportunity to defund it."
Cruz demurred when asked whether he agreed with Republican Party Chairman Reince Priebus' warning to NBC and CNN that airing TV programs about Hillary Rodham Clinton, a potential Democratic presidential candidate, could cost the networks any party cooperation on future GOP primary debates. NBC plans a miniseries and CNN a documentary.
"The RNC will make its own decisions," Cruz said. "I don't think anybody is surprised to discover that that the mainstream media are in love with Hillary Clinton. Indeed, I would expect both of those movies will be released on Valentine's Day."
Former Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa., who sought the Republican nomination in 2012 and might again in 2016, told the group that the party must do a better job reaching out to working-class voters. The winner of the Iowa caucuses in 2012 said that by focusing on business owners in that election, the GOP failed to connect with "job holders" and "marginalized" a group of voters.
"We need to reject this idea that if we build the economy, all boats will rise. We need to talk about people who have holes in their boats, because we all do," Santorum said.
Reality TV star and real estate mogul Donald Trump, who flirted with a presidential run in 2012, said the GOP was struggling and would need a strong candidate in 2016, "someone who is really smart and really good."
The daylong event was one of many cattle calls for potential candidates in the grueling run-up to the next presidential election. Conservative voters will likely be critical to a victory in the Iowa caucuses, the nation's first presidential nominating event.
Iowa Republican consultant Doug Gross said conservative Christian voters could play a big role in 2016.
"Historically the people that are there (at the Family Leader summit), represent about 40 percent of the caucus-goers. That's not an insignificant portion," Gross said. "It depends how many conservatives get in the race. It's totally wide open."

Two bodies found, more possible after small plane hits Connecticut homes
By Michelle McLoughlin
EAST HAVEN, Connecticut (Reuters) - Two bodies have been located after a small plane crashed into two houses in East Haven, Connecticut, on Friday, and the death toll could rise, Governor Dannel Malloy said.
Emergency workers have "visuals" on two bodies in the basement of one of the houses, the governor told reporters.
The twin-engine propeller plane had been attempting to land at nearby Tweed New Haven Airport in rainy weather.
Earlier, East Haven Deputy Fire Chief Tony Moscato said officials believed that at least three people, including the pilot and two children in one of the houses, were missing.
Emergency crews were not certain if there were other people on the plane with the pilot, and the destruction at the scene made the workers' job more difficult, the governor said.
"This is a disaster site," Malloy said. "There's a lot of damage."
Investigators from the Federal Aviation Administration were on the scene.
Police cordoned off the area, where smoke could be seen rising from between the houses, and pieces of the plane's wing were visible in the wreckage. Part of the roof of one of the houses had collapsed.

Now ear this! Channing Tatum goes blond
Celebs 
2 hours ago
Hollywood actresses often go blond, but it's rarer for men to bleach out their locks. Channing Tatum is the exception. For a role in the upcoming film "Jupiter Ascending," the brunette star of "Magic Mike" and "21 Jump Street" sports blond locks, a goatee, and perhaps strangest of all, prosthetic pointy Spock ears.
INFphoto.com
Channing Tatum shooting a scene from "Jupiter Ascending" in Joliet, Ill. His fake ears and blond hair are a new look for the actor.
Tatum plays Caine, a half-albino warrior with wolf DNA (probably explaining the pointy ears). He stars in the sci-fi film along with Mila Kunis, who plays a janitor who learns she has a genetic destiny to fulfill. The film is being directed by Lana and Andy Wachowski, best known for "The Matrix" movies.
Some photos show co-star Kunis laughing at Tatum's pointy ear add-ons. And Britain's Daily Mail said the ears gave Tatum a "slightly elvish" appearance.
"Jupiter Ascending" is set for a July 2014 release.

Do Payday Lenders Skirt the Military Lending Act?
While payday lenders and the government continue to spar over rate caps, zoning laws, and moral correctitude, the Military Lending Act already restricts the lenders? practices when they relate to active service members. By law, payday lenders can only give short-term loans to military if the annual percentage rates sit at 36% or lower. The term short-term in this case refers to loans lasting three months or less.
However, some argue that the payday lending industry circumvents these laws or finds loopholes to continue to provide high-interest loans to military members. Senator Dick Durbin recently to Republica, in reference to the Military Lending Act, ?If we?re serious about protecting military families from exploitation, this law has to be a lot tighter.?
So what are these so-called loopholes? Here are a few examples:
*Offering military families installment loans, where they pay back a set sum every time over a period of months or years.
*Using auto-title lending, where a consumer gives the lender the title to his or her car and ?buys it back? by repaying a high-interest loan.
*Lengthening the terms on traditional payday loans, so that they last longer than three months and are no longer subject to the law.
Some companies offer three-month loans at rates that fall at 36% or below but then offer ?refinances,? where a consumer can continue to pay on the loan but at a considerably higher rate if he or she cannot afford to pay it off.
Military personnel, especially when they are new to the service, are often faced with financial trouble due to both low salaries and financial inexperience. This has led to an outcropping of storefront lenders near the gates of military bases. While the military does have financial assistance available, sometimes in the form of 0% loans, many are reluctant to use it for fear of losing their security clearances. Like in other instances, the argument remains: are payday lenders exploiting their customers or simply providing a needed service to a willing market?

Social enterprise to help borough reduce energy bills launched
Social enterprise to help Harrow reduce energy bills launched
2:12pm Friday 9th August 2013 in News By Bruce Thain
A community led project to help reduce energy loss has launched in Harrow to help people save money on their bills after success in a neighbouring borough.
Energise Barnet CIC, a social enterprise, has launched Energise Harrow to help people in the borough save energy and money by installing energy-saving measures and renewable energy systems.
Nigel Farren, founder said: ?We are committed to helping the fledgling community energy sector grow and become a force to be reckoned with. It's a challenge and it's early days but we're innovating and evolving all the time.
"It's also about helping councils deliver their housing and public health objectives and the NHS to reduce costs for the benefit of local communities across the UK.?
The company is a point of contact for information, advice for the installation of energy saving measures and renewables in Barnet and will now help provide the same in Harrow.

Baseball: Kevin Campbell guides Joliet Dirtbags to NABF World Series

Kevin Campbell coaches baseball on the sophomore level at his alma mater, Joliet Catholic.
He also helped with Jared Voss? varsity team during its run to the Class 3A state championship in the spring.
He conducted tryouts this week for the always-successful St. Raymond Grade School program. He is taking over as head coach from Tom McGrath, who has retired. He was a McGrath assistant for several years.
And, he departed Wednesday for Battle Creek, Mich., where he will manage the Joliet Dirtbags as they compete Thursday through Sunday in the 100th anniversary of the NABF Major Division World Series. The Dirtbags, a wood bat team whose roster consists largely of college players but also has a few who are out of school, earned passage to the World Series when they beat perennial power Beecher Muskies 9-0 in Sunday?s Kankakee Regional title game.
Campbell?s resume indeed is impressive, especially for a 23-year-old.
?Dads and other coaches are taking over the St. Ray?s practices while I?m in Michigan,? Campbell said. ?So that will be fine.
?The hardest thing about coaching different ages is going from the college kids to junior high kids, with the difference in level of play. Going from high school to college kids in the early summer is much easier. The only differences there are JCA kids have more energy and the college guys have a little more knowledge of the game.?
The Dirtbags went 5-1 in the double-elimination regional. That included a split Sunday against Beecher, which won the first game of the finals 6-0 to force a winner-take-all finale.
?That was the first time in eight or nine years that Beecher lost a game in the regional, much less did not win it,? Campbell said.
Veteran Atlanta Braves area scout Stu Cann, of Peotone, was there. Campbell said he had an eye on a few of the Dirtbags.
Joliet opened with an 8-0 victory over the Peotone Pirates as Nick Davito (Lockport, St. Francis) and Chris Blatti (Joliet Catholic, St. Francis) combined on the shutout. Rick Faron (St. Francis) went six innings and Austin Mastela (Lockport, Lewis) belted a three-run homer in the sixth inning of a 3-2 win over Michigan City.
Tom Helwich (Lincoln-Way Central, Lewis) then no-hit Beecher 4-1, allowing only an unearned run in the first inning. Kyle Davidson followed with a nine-inning complete game in a 3-2 victory over the Homestead Ranchers. Cody Columbus (Joliet Catholic, St. Francis) knocked in the decisive run.
That sent the Dirtbags to the finals. Kyle Cunningham (Joliet Catholic, St. Francis) pitched eight strong innings but took the loss against Beecher. Blatti, normally the closer, picked him up, shutting out the Muskies in the title game in his first start of the season. Davidson, the shortstop, went 4-for-4.
?Blatti really stepped up,? Campbell said. ?Both teams were running on empty and the game was scoreless. In the bottom of the fourth, we were turning a double play and their runner struck our second baseman, Brad Porter (Plainfield North, St. Francis), with his shoulder. That seemed to flip the switch. We scored runs in the fifth and sixth, two in the seventh and five in the ninth.?
Porter was playing second base because Brian Dixon was unable to be there.
?Brad Porter could not have done a better job replacing him,? Campbell said.
Davidson was his usual highlight reel at shortstop, Cunningham was solid at third and when either pitched, Jack Troike did an excellent job filling the defensive position. First baseman Joe Sparacio (Plainfield Central, Lewis) rounds out the infield, with Casey Papp (Providence, Joliet Junior College) and Tommy Charles (Lincoln-Way Central) sharing catching duties.
The outfield defense, which creates what the Dirtbags call the ?no-fly zone,? was unchanged and superb throughout the regional with Columbus in left, hot-hitting David Kuhne (St. Francis) in center and Mastela in right. ?Nothing drops out there,? Campbell said.
In his second season guiding the Dirtbags, Campbell said the goal in building a roster was ?to take all the talent we could from this area plus a select few from outside the area. Columbus and Cunningham are captains. They keep the guys in check. Tom Helwich is a real leader and Casey Papp is a vocal leader. It makes me feel good that at least a couple of our guys canceled plans they had made in order to be with us in Michigan.?
The World Series will feature three four-team pools. The top two finishers in each pool, plus two wild cards (third-place teams) will advance to the single-elimination quarterfinals. The eventual winner must win three games in the championship bracket.
The other Illinois entry besides the Dirtbags is the Chicago Clout, the defending champion.
?The Clout has a lot of St. Francis kids and so do we, so it will be interesting if we play them,? Campbell said.

Ronda Rousey in talks for role in ?Fast & Furious 7?
Rousey, who will defend her belt on Dec. 28 against bitter rival Miesha Tate in the co-main event of UFC 168 at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, is in talks for a fighting role in the feature film, "Fast & Furious 7."
Rousey, who is 7-0 in her mixed martial arts career, has already been cast for a role in "The Expendables 3," and filming is expected to begin shortly. It would interfere with her preparation for the fight with Tate, but she said producers have been accommodating and have arranged her schedule so that she can train when she's not on the set.
I'm leaving soon, and I'm very fortunate that there's going to be [boxer] Victor Ortiz and ('Expendables' cast member) Randy Couture and other fighter-type people there, and I'm going to be able to have my camp come and do everything, so I'm not going to break training for it at all.
If she lands the role in "Fast & Furious," as Variety first reported she would, she'd probably go from the set of The Expendables directly to Atlanta to film "Fast & Furious 7." It's not the conventional way a champion prepares for a title fight against a hated foe, but Rousey is anything but a conventional champion.
She's also going to be on the cover of the September edition of Maxim. And she'll also debut as a coach on "The Ultimate Fighter," which moves to the new Fox Sports 1 channel, opposite Tate starting next month.
At the UFC World Tour stop in Los Angeles last week, Rousey said she is the type who takes advantage of notoriety to build her brand.
If I see it, I'll go for it. I try to see everything that's available because if you just focus on one thing, you miss other opportunities.
Get ready for a whole lot of Rowdy over the new few months.

Executive Editor of Golf World Magazine Ron Sirak Discusses the PGA Championship
Ron Sirak, the executive editor of Golf World Magazine, joined the Norris and Davis Show on Baltimore?s 105-7 THE FAN Thursday morning to discuss the PGA Championship.? When asked if Tiger Woods is the favorite to win the major, Sirak tells that Woods has been unable to break 70 on the weekends recently.? He thinks that this is going to be a big event for Woods.
Sirak believes that Woods has been the player of the year so far in the midst of breaking Jack Nicklaus? record for career majors.? He believes that, while we will never see the unbeatable Tiger Woods again, that Woods is still the best player in the world, regardless of other players like Rory McIlroy.? In fact, Sirak thinks McIlroy is too nice of a person to be a great player because he isn?t selfish.
Sirak believes there are two things that motivate Phil Mickelson: winning majors and beating Tiger Woods.? However, Sirak believes Mickelson has the potential to be a non-factor in the championship depends on which version of Mickelson shows up ? the non-factor or the dominant one.

Editor's note: Gary May is a professor of history at the University of Delaware and author of "Bending Toward Justice: The Voting Rights Act and the Transformation of American Democracy."
(CNN) -- "Our country has changed," wrote Chief Justice John Roberts on June 25, 2013, when five of the nine Supreme Court Justices dismantled the historic Voting Rights Act.
Roberts is correct in at least one respect: Today's Republican Party is no longer the party of Abraham Lincoln, as former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens reminded us again in a recent article in The New York Review of Books. Stevens, a lifelong Republican appointed to the court by Gerald Ford, attacked Roberts and his Republican colleagues for usurping the authority of Congress which had overwhelmingly renewed the act in 2006.
But 48 years ago this week, the Republican Party supported the cause of voting rights. On August 6, 1965, when President Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law, he gave the second pen he used to Everett Dirksen, the Republican Senate Minority Leader. Dirksen deserved the honor because he was a major architect of the act. In fact, the bill was written in Dirksen's office as he sat next to Acting Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach. Later, insiders joked that the bill should be called "Dirksenbach."

Although suffering from emphysema, ulcers and an enlarged heart, Dirksen worked hard defending the bill on the floor of the Senate, successfully defeating Southern efforts to weaken it. Johnson feared that a Southern filibuster would delay the bill until the Senate adjourned for the summer, a dangerous prospect. "They been doin' that for 35 years that I been here," Johnson fumed, "and I been watchin' 'em do it."
Opinion: 50 years later, civil rights struggle is far from over
Johnson turned to Dirksen for help. The Senator from Illinois persuaded 23 fellow Republicans to vote for cloture, shutting off a filibuster and freeing the Voting Rights Act for an up or down vote. When it came, 30 Republicans joined 47 Democrats to pass the bill and send it to the House for their consideration.
After Southern efforts to destroy the bill in the House were defeated and differences between House and Senate versions of the bill were resolved in conference committee, the 1965 Voting Rights Act was passed overwhelmingly by both houses of Congress that August, with Republican support.
Soon, however, Republicans began to court white voters in the South and elsewhere who were alienated by the Democratic Party's embrace of civil rights. Richard Nixon first adopted this "Southern strategy" in his 1968 presidential campaign, following the advice of Kevin Phillips, a political advisor, who later noted that "the more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans."
And so it came to be: Blacks, who were affiliated with Lincoln's Republican party after the Civil War and well into the 20th century, moved decisively to join the party of Johnson, and later Clinton, and Obama, while the Republican Party moved sharply to the right and came to mostly represent white Americans.
In 2010, after winning control of 25 state legislatures, Republicans enacted a series of laws designed to suppress the votes of those who elected Barack Obama president in 2008.
Then, on June 25, 2013, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court bid a final farewell to the party of Lincoln by demolishing the Voting Rights Act in Shelby County v. Holder. Troubled by this development, John Paul Stevens, a Republican appointed to the court in 1975 by President Gerald Ford, offered his dissent in The New York Review of Books article.
Justice Stevens felt strongly that the court had erred in taking the case, since Congress had thoroughly investigated and found evidence of racial discrimination in voting in 2006, resulting in the act's near-unanimous reauthorization that same year.
He argued that the chief justice's opinion had failed "to explain why such a decision should be made by the members of the Supreme Court," and not the Congress. After all, the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits interference with voting on the basis of race, color, and condition of previous servitude, clearly gives the Congress the right to pass legislation to enforce that amendment. "The members of Congress, representing the millions of voters who elected them, are far more likely to evaluate correctly the ...issue...," Stevens concluded. Conservatives on the court were guilty of the judicial activism they had long decried.
Veterans of forgotten voting war count the cost
In a final ironic twist, Stevens quoted Antonin Scalia's dissent in the Defense of Marriage case, which Stevens thought applied at least as well, if not better, to what the court had done in Shelby County v. Holder: "We have no power to decide this case. And even if we did, we have no power under the Constitution to invalidate this democratically adopted legislation. The court's errors on both points spring forth from the same diseased root: an exalted conception of the role of this institution in America."
Stevens' dissent, coming as it does from the man who served longer than any other Republican appointee on the Supreme Court, testifies to how far that party has strayed from its origins.
With the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, Republicans throughout the South are again passing voter suppression laws (and, in North Carolina, legislation which would damage women's reproductive rights). It is no longer the party of Lincoln or Reagan. It has become the party of Jefferson Davis. Whether the American people wish to turn the clock back to 1861 remains to be seen.

As al-Qaida grows, leaders remain a global threat
WASHINGTON (AP) ? Far from being on the brink of collapse, al-Qaida's core leadership remains a potent threat ? and one that experts say has encouraged the terror network's spread into more countries today than it was operating in immediately after 9/11.
President Barack Obama, who ordered the May 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden, has described al-Qaida's headquarters as "a shadow of its former self" and his spokesman Jay Carney has called it "severely diminished" and "decimated." The bravado, however, didn't match the Obama administration's action this week.
Nineteen U.S. diplomatic outposts stretching across the Eastern Hemisphere remain closed, and nonessential personnel have been evacuated from the U.S. Embassy in Yemen after intelligence officials said they had intercepted a recent message from al-Qaida's top leader about plans for a major terror attack.
The new communique came from bin Laden's replacement, Ayman al-Zawahri, who as early as December 2001 announced plans to decentralize the network and scatter its affiliates across the globe as a way of ensuring its survival.
Now, major al-Qaida hubs are thriving along the Iraqi-Syrian border, in North Africa and, in the most serious risk to the U.S., in Yemen.
The regional hubs may not take direct orders from al-Zawahri, and terror experts say they rarely coordinate operations with each other or share funding and fighters. But they have promoted al-Qaida's mission far beyond what its reach was a dozen years ago and, in turn, created an enduring legacy for its core leaders.
"Even while the core al-Qaida group may be in decline, al-Qaida-ism, the movement's ideology, continues to resonate and attract new adherents," Bruce Hoffman, director of the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University, wrote in a research paper earlier this year.
Bin Laden's death, Hoffman wrote, "left behind a resilient movement that, although seriously weakened, has been expanding and consolidating its control in new and far-flung locales."
On Wednesday, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. has focused on al-Qaida's affiliates, including the one based in Yemen, after targeting the terror network's top leaders in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
"We're not naive about the challenges we're facing," Psaki said. "We do think a threat still remains."
"We're intensifying our effort on affiliates," she said. "That's part of what our focus is. And, yes, we've had some successes."
Al-Zawahri, an Egyptian whose location is unknown, issues messages to followers every few months that are posted and circulated on jihadi websites. His latest, posted July 30, lashed out at Obama for the continued U.S. detention of terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and for launching deadly drone attacks in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen and other Muslim countries.
"You fought us for 13 years. ... Did we soften or toughen up? Did we back out or advance? Did we withdraw or spread out?" al-Zawahri asked Obama in his July 30 message, according to a transcript of his letter that was translated from Arabic by SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors jihadist websites.
He continued, "I call on every Muslim in every spot on Earth to seek with all that he can to stop the crimes of America and its allies against the Muslims ? in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen and Mali, and everywhere."
Three days later, the State Department announced the temporary closing of U.S. embassies and diplomatic outposts across the Mideast, Africa and Asia ? although not in Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel or Mali. Officials this week said the closures were prompted by an unspecified threat to U.S. and Western interests in a message from al-Zawahri to his top lieutenant in Yemen, where al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula is based.
AQAP, as the terror network's regional hub is known, is led by Nasser al-Wahishi, who for years was close to al-Zawahri and bin Laden, and is one of al-Qaida's few remaining core leaders, said SITE director Rita Katz.
Intelligence officials say AQAP has for years announced its intent to attack the U.S., and is widely considered the biggest threat to the West of the al-Qaida affiliates. The group is linked to the botched Christmas Day 2009 bombing of an airliner bound for Detroit and explosives-laden parcels intercepted aboard cargo flights a year later.
Katz said AQAP may serve as the future al-Qaida headquarters, given that al-Zawahri and other core leaders pay attention to al-Wahishi. But she warned, "There will be a new leader in the future, and I doubt it will stay the same."
For the most part, al-Qaida's regional power centers have formed in places undergoing political upheaval, where security forces are too distracted by internal war or strife to clamp down on extremists.
The civil war in Syria, now in its third year, has given al-Qaida a huge boost and an opportunity to seize land that the Sunni-based network has long yearned to control. Having a leadership role in Syria would be a victory for al-Qaida given the country's prominence in Muslim scripture, its proximity to other Arab states and the network's hatred toward Alawites, an offshoot of Shiite Islam, who include Syrian President Bashar Assad.
More than 100,000 people have died in the Syrian war, which largely pits Sunni opposition forces and rebels against Assad's Alawite regime, and has drawn fighters linked to al-Qaida. Many have come from neighboring Iraq, which itself is reeling from political instability.
Violence has risen steadily since the American military left Iraq in December 2011, fueled in part by Syrian cross-border militant traffic but also because of Baghdad's inability to curb attacks.
July was the deadliest month in Iraq in years, with attacks killing more than 1,000 people and wounding at least 2,300, according to U.N. data. And coordinated jailbreaks at two high-security Iraqi prisons last month set free hundreds of inmates, including al-Qaida extremists. Iraq's branch of al-Qaida, known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, claimed responsibility for the raids that it said were planned for months.
Kenneth Pollack, who oversaw Persian Gulf issues while on the White House National Security Council during the Clinton administration, said al-Qaida is poised to gain from instability across the Mideast ? in part by using Iraq as a regional hub.
"Al-Qaida in Iraq is back. They were dead in 2010, dead as doornails, and now they are huge in Iraq," Pollack said. "They have operations in Syria and they are a real movement in Syria."
But the al-Qaida fighters in Iraq and Syria have shown little interest in attacking Americans beyond the region, Pollack said, and neither have most of those in northern Africa. There, in a region that spans across the Sahel and stretches from the Mediterranean Sea to Somalia, a spread of militants are calling themselves al-Qaida in Islamic Maghreb.
AQIM is rooted in Algeria and affiliated with al-Zawahri, who in April warned French troops fighting extremists in Mali that they would face "the same fate America met in Iraq and Afghanistan" as long as they stayed. But there's no evidence the North African groups receive direct orders from al-Zawahri, and most are as motivated by asserting local authority through criminal activity as by anti-Western ideology.
It's believed that AQIM was linked to some of the militants behind last year's attack on a diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. And AQIM is suspected of driving overloaded trucks of rifles, mortars and other weapons from Libya to Mali and Niger to arm allies there.
Al-Zawahri also urged Muslims to join Somali militants in a message last November. The Somali-based militant group al-Shabab is loosely linked to al-Qaida, but some of its members have plotted attacks against the United States, where large pockets of Somalis have moved to escape famine and war over the last 20 years.
An inevitable part of al-Qaida's growth is its new regional leadership ? few of whom fought with bin Laden or have ever worked with al-Zawahri, Katz said. They may not all be driven by the same anti-American or anti-Western fervors that motivated bin Laden, but that makes them no less a global threat as the disparate groups mature.
"In the past, people wanted to go to Afghanistan; it was the dream of every possible jihadi on the front to go to Afghanistan to fight in al-Qaida training camps," Katz said. "You don't see that anymore. No one cares about what's happening in Afghanistan.
"If anyone wants to go anywhere today it is, of course, Syria," she said. "Going to Yemen is always a good thing for them; going to Somalia is less than it used to be, but it's still another possibility. Things change all the time."
