...Admiral James Loy, the head of the TSA, says while checking 100 per cent of high risk cargo is a goal, the technology does not yet exist to make screening all cargo practical. Republican Congressman Christopher Shays is tired of waiting. "In the worst case, any plane with uninspected cargo has the risk of having a bomb on board. That is unacceptable." Loy says the TSA is expected to have a strategic plan completed by Oct. 31 and new rules published by the end of the year...
...more than 1,000 MW of electricity into the city for the first time since the main fighting ended--though that was still less than half of prewar levels. But disorder still prevails in the capital. "There's no doubt in my mind that crime is increasing," says Major Loy Majeed, the assistant chief of the Bayaa police station in southwest Baghdad. "Now we get reports of five, six, seven killings in a night, and all we can do is write it down." Police officers complain that patrol cars have been stolen in broad daylight and that their small-caliber...
...Will Loy leans against the wood-paneled wall at Kilroy's bar in Bloomington, Ind., with a bottle of beer in hand and a devilish grin on his face.

"I've got it down to a science," says Loy, a criminal-justice major with--surprise--a 3.4 GPA. "I schedule my classes late in the day, study every day around noon. Then I can party harder at night...
Each night thousands of students copy Loy's partying routine at the half a dozen bars that surround the campus of 38,000 students. "This is the best place to have a good time," says junior George Leach, a starter on the Hoosiers' basketball team. Editors at the Princeton Review apparently agreed. Last summer the college-guide publisher named Indiana the No. 1 party school in the nation...
...Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the federal agency in charge of keeping the nation's skies safe, spent much of the past year vetting, hiring and training 54,000 passenger and baggage screeners. But because of severe budget problems, that force is about to start shrinking. TSA chief Admiral James Loy told Congress recently that 3,000 airport-screener positions would be cut by June 1. But sources tell TIME that a TSA task force has been working since mid-March on even more drastic spending-cut options; a source estimates that the agency could be as much as $1 billion...
