A cool breeze, however, will still blow in the Northeast. Warmer air from the Desert Southwest will filter across the Plains to the Midwest, giving many communities a taste of spring. Some record highs will be challenged. The warming will occur ahead of a storm system delivering rain and high- elevation snow showers to the northern Rockies. In the wake of the system, the Northwest will briefly dry out. California will stay dry and warm for late February.

According to several U.S. officials, the attacks are targeting the group's abil- ities to use social media and the Internet to recruit fighters and inspire follow- ers, U.S. officials told The Associated Press. U.S. officials confirmed that operations launched out of Fort Meade, Mary- land, where the U.S. Cyber Command is based, have focused on disrupting the group's online activities. The officials said the effort is getting underway as op- erators try a range of at- tacks to see what works and what doesn't. They de- clined to discuss details, other than to say that the attacks in- clude ef- forts to pre- vent the group from distribut- ing propa- ganda, vid- eos or other types of re- cruiting and messaging on social media sites such as Twitter, and across the Internet in gen- eral. Other attacks could in- clude attempts to stop in- surgents from conduct- ing financial or logistical transactions online. The surge of computer- based military operations by U.S. Cyber Command began shortly after Carter met with commanders at Fort Meade last month. Several U.S. officials spoke about the cyber cam- paign on condition of ano- nymity because they were not authorized to discuss it publicly. Much of the effort is classified. Carter mentioned the operations briefly Thurs- day, telling a House Ap- propriations subcommittee only that Cyber Command is beginning to conduct operations against the Is- lamic State group. He de- clined to say more in a pub- lic setting. The more aggressive at- tacks come after months of pressure from Carter, who has been frustrated with the belief that the Penta- gon — and particularly Cy- ber Command — was los- ing the war in the cyber do- main. Late last year Carter told cyber commanders they had 30 days to bring him options for how the military could use its cy- berwarfare capabilities against the group's deadly insurgency across Iraq and Syria, and spreading to Libya and Afghanistan. Officials said he told com- manders that beefing up cyberwarfare against the Islamic State group was a test for them, and that they should have both the capa- bility and the will to wage the online war. But the military cyber fight is limited by con- cerns within the intelli- gence agencies that block- ing the group's Internet ac- cess could hurt intelligence gathering. Officials said Carter told commanders that he the U.S. to be able to im- pact Islamic State opera- tions without diminishing the indications or warn- ings U.S. intelligence offi- cers can glean about what the group is doing. TERRORISM PentagonstartsaggressivecyberwaragainstIS Carter By Matthew Daly The Associated Press WASHINGTON The House on Friday approved a bill to expand access to hunt- ing and fishing areas on public lands, extend pro- tections for the use of lead bullets in hunting and strip wolves of federal pro- tections in four states. The bill also would let hunters import 41 polar bear carcasses shot in Can- ada before they were de- clared threatened in 2008 and allow limited imports of ivory from African ele- phants. The bill was approved, 242-161, and now goes to the Senate. Twelve Demo- crats joined 230 Republi- cans in favor of the mea- sure. Supporters said the bill would protect and expand the rights of sportsmen to hunt, fish and enjoy other recreation on public lands. "Washington bureau- crats don't understand that federal lands can be used in multiple ways," said House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. "By overregulating, these bureaucrats do a lot of damage to our fishermen, shooters and outdoor en- thusiasts, stopping per- fectly legal and safe out- door activities. Washing- ton regulations should enable access (to public lands), not stop it." Opponents said the bill would roll back important protections for wolves and other wildlife and under- mine international efforts to combat ivory trafficking. "This legislation would open up our most pristine protected lands to road- building, motorized vehi- cles and other activities that undermine the ex- plicit intent of the Wilder- ness Act," said Gene Kar- pinski, president of the League of Conservation Voters. The bill also contains a provision to remove gray wolves in the Great Lakes region and Wyoming off the federal endangered list.
