The White House left no doubt on Tuesday that American patience with Russia playing host to NSA leaker Edward Snowden is wearing thin.
?The Russian government has an opportunity here to work with us,? press secretary Jay Carney told reporters at his daily briefing. ?This should not be something that causes long-term problems for U.S.-Russian relations.?
Washington and Moscow have been ?engaging on a number of important issues, both economic and security related issues, and we want to continue that relationship unimpeded by this issue,? Carney added. By turning over Snowden, or at least expelling him, Russia could ?resolve this situation that they have been dealing with now for three weeks.?
Could the dispute over Snowden lead Obama to cancel his planned attendance at he Group of 20 summit in Russia? Carney did not close out that possibility. "The president intends to travel to Russia in September for the G20 summit. And I don't have any further announcements."
By the standards of diplo-speak, that?s nearly a ?frank and candid exchange of views? ? code for an all out verbal fight.
?Our interest has always been in seeing him expelled from Russia and returned to the United States,? Carney told reporters.
?He should not be allowed to engage in further international travel except as necessary to return to the United States,? Carney said of Snowden, who is regarded in some quarters as a whistleblower for disclosing the incredibly broad sweep of NSA spying on American citizens.
?He is not a human rights activist, he is not a dissident,? Carney insisted. ?He is accused of leaking classified information, he?s been charged with three felony counts related to the leaking of classified information. And for those reasons he should be returned to the United States.?
Carney's comments came after Snowden's lawyer asked Russia to give the former NSA contractor-turned-secrets-spiller temporary asylum, saying his client could face persecution and even torture or death.
Carney repeatedly underlined that Snowden, if handed over, ?should be afforded every bit of due process here in the United States.?

Microsoft has rolled out native iPhone and iPad versions of Outlook Web App. The iOS apps are aimed at organizations using Office 365 subscriptions with Exchange Online support, and replicate the features of the browser interface while implementing some functionality only possible with native code.
Basic options in the apps let users browse, sort, and flag email, and manage schedules via a calendar component. The latter supports checking whether rooms and people are free, and access to shared calendars. Voice commands can be used to search for a contact or schedule info.
In case of a limited security breach or someone changing jobs, the data in the OWA apps can be remotely wiped without affecting other content on an iPhone or iPad. For extra security, the apps use their own passcodes on top of ones enabled in iOS.
Both titles require iOS 6 or later. The iPhone version requires an iPhone 4S or 5, while the iPad release demands at least an iPad 2.

Moments after being taken by the Panthers with the second pick in the NHL Draft last month, Aleksander ?Sasha?? Barkov said his plan was to play in Florida this season.
Barkov took a step toward that on Monday by signing his first contract with the team, a three-year entry-level deal.
The Panthers also ended any sort of contentious negotiations it may have had with goalie Jacob Markstrom as he signed a two-year deal with the team on Monday as well.
?This is the deal that works for both sides,?? assistant general manager Mike Santos said after announcing the Markstrom signing.
?Jacob is, obviously, still a top prospect. As a goaltender sometimes it takes a little longer to develop. I think this was the right deal for him and for us. He?s by no means the complete goaltender we hope he will be someday. But, again, he?s young.??
Markstrom, a second-round pick in 2008, became the Panthers starting goalie last season after Scott Clemmensen struggled and Jose Theodore tore his groin March 2 in Carolina.
Markstrom went 8-14-1 in his 23 starts for the Panthers last season.
The 23-year-old goalie will have a two-way provision ? allowing him to be sent back to the minors ? in the first year of his contract. Markstrom gets a one-way deal in the second year.
?We were forced into that situation last year because of the injury,?? Santos said. ?He was thrown into a tough situation. Given the time he came up and all the injuries we had in the short season, I think it was difficult to expect him to come in and play to the best of his abilities.?
Santos said he expects a starting goalie to emerge during training camp and that Markstrom won?t be handed the job. That said, the Panthers apparently aren?t actively looking for another goalie to come in, although Santos said that could change.
Santos said he hasn?t spoken to Theodore, a free agent, since the end of last season. Theodore said he wanted to come back to the Panthers, but that doesn?t appear to be a likelihood. Clemmensen is signed for another season.
Markstrom wrote he was excited to sign and ?can?t wait for the season to start!?? on his Twitter account on Monday afternoon, moments after Santos broke the news of the signing.
With Barkov in the fold, the Panthers will be younger than they were at the start of last season.
Barkov is expected to not only join recent top draft picks Jonathan Huberdeau (20) and Erik Gudbranson (21) in the Panthers? lineup, but Alex Petrovic (21) and Nick Bjugstad (20) as well.
Veterans Ed Jovanovski (hip) and Kris Versteeg (knee) are coming off surgery and are expected to miss at least the beginning of the season. Those injuries could open the door for the likes of Vincent Trocheck and Colby Robak.
After scoring 21 goals with 27 assists in 53 games in the Finnish elite league over the past two seasons, there really was nothing left for Barkov to prove in Europe. He?s going to get his chance in the NHL in a few months.
Barkov is back in his native Finland after attending the Panthers? developmental camp last week.
Although he couldn?t participate in on-ice drills after having shoulder surgery last March, Barkov was able to assimilate himself a little better within South Florida and the organization.
Rookie camp, which Barkov is expected to participate in, will be held Sept. 4. Training camp begins Sept.?11 in Coral Springs.
?There was no sense of putting [the signing of Barkov] off,?? Santos said. ?One reason why we took him with the second overall pick is we thought he was going to have the ability to step right in. He?s played in a men?s league for the past two years.
?It?s a different situation than other top picks we?ve had recently. We thought they needed another year. We drafted [Barkov] because we feel he?s ready and able to play.?

The smoldering heat slamming the Northeast has triggered a hyperthermia alert in Washington, D.C., where residents are being urged to find air-conditioning and drink plenty of water.
The alert, issued just before noon today, was triggered by a 96-degree heat index, a measure of heat and humidity. And it?s only getting worse, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which predicts afternoon heat indices in the 100s through the week.
?The alert is issued for homeless people, senior citizens and other vulnerable populations who may not have access to air-conditioning,? a spokeswoman for D.C.?s?Department of Human Services said, noting that the term ?hyperthermia alert? has been used by the government for at least 20 years.
Hyperthermia is an abnormally high body temperature, an imbalance that can cause dizziness, disorientation and, in severe cases, death. The most common forms are heat exhaustion and heat stroke, the latter of which occurs when the body is ?overwhelmed by heat? and unable to control its temperature, according to?the National Institutes of Health
Symptoms of heat stroke include dry, flushed skin, a sign that the body is no longer cooling itself through sweat. People with heat stroke might? also feel faint and confused, according to the NIH.
?Seek immediate emergency medical attention for a person with any of these symptoms, especially an older adult,? the agency says on its website.
Other signs of heat-related illness include:
Older people are more at risk for heat-related illness because of changes to the skin and circulatory system that come with age as well as health problems and medications that interfere with the body?s ability to sweat, according to the NIH.
D.C. health officials are advising residents to stay cool and hydrated, recommending cold showers or baths for those in need of fast relief. They?re also urging neighbors to check in on one another.
The Department of Human Services has set up emergency shelters?and cooling centers for the homeless and a Hyperthermia Hotline, operated by United Planning Organization, for anyone who sees a homeless person in need of medical attention.
If you think someone might be suffering from a heat-related illness, the NIH recommends:
