The title refers to a daily report given to the president of the United States detailing the most serious terrorist threats against the country. To tackle those threats, the government has formed a top-notch task force to infiltrate the terror cells and cut off the danger.

"Every morning, the president receives a list of the top ten terrorist threats - this list is known as the threat matrix."

We here at FR are trying to be in conjunction with the daily reports around the world that involve threats. We try to provide a storehouse of information that takes hours of research.

YOU be the Judge and get informed.

British, U.S. Officials Quash Plane Rumor

2 hours, 8 minutes ago Add Top Stories - Reuters to My Yahoo!

LONDON (Reuters) - Market rumors that a commercial aircraft flying from London to either Washington or New York had gone missing are untrue, British and U.S. air traffic controllers said on Wednesday.

"There are no reports of any aircraft in difficulties. As far as we know, everything is normal," a spokesman for Britain's National Air Traffic Services told Reuters.

"We've checked with everyone, including our Canadian and European counterparts, and no one has heard anything," said the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (news - web sites)'s Glenn Godfrey, operations manager at the FAA (news - web sites)'s air traffic command center near Washington D.C.

The rumor swept through equity and money markets, becoming a talking point, but prices were largely unaffected.

British Airways, whose shares were down around two percent on the day, said it had checked its flights and everything was normal. (Additional reporting by Mark Egan in New York)

Southbank Tower Reopens After Judge Resigns

POSTED: 12:17 pm EDT August 4, 2004
UPDATED: 1:56 pm EDT August 4, 2004
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Riverplace Tower on Riverplace Boulevard on the Southbank reopened about 90 minutes after it was was evacuated when police received information of a hostage situation inside a law office on the 13th floor.

Jacksonville Sheriff's Office spokesman Ken Jefferson said they are responding to a telephone call that that was "a device" in the tower. He also told Channel 4 crews on scene that there was a report of a man with a gun holding a hostage.

The 13th floor houses some offices of the Rogers-Towers Attorneys At Law.

Former Judge Sharon Tanner
"Effective immediately, I do hereby resign my position as county judge," Duval County Judge Tanner said live on Channel 4.
Just before the building was reopened, Duval County Judge Sharon Tanner came to the scene and announced live on Channel 4 that she was resigning.

Sheriff John Rutherford is expected to hold a news conference at 2 p.m. to explain exactly what happened.

Just before noon, everyone inside the building was told over the building's public address system to leave the building, but not use the elevators.

A manager with Southtrust bank told Channel 4's Bruce Hamilton that everyone was asked to leave "as quickly as possible."

SWAT-enters-buildingSeveral hundred people, including children from a day-care center, have left the building 28-story building. Jefferson said the children were taken into the Radisson Hotel about two blocks away.

The SWAT team and bomb squad has entered the building and is sweeping every floor. Police have diverted traffic from Riverplace Boulevard from in front of the building and police asked the media to back up from the area.

Construction workers at an adjoining work site were also asked to leave.

Channel 4's Scott Johnson said everyone coming out of the building was confused about why they were leaving but were calm. He said that as the children were leaving, they passed heavily armed SWAT team members headed toward the building.

Sharon Tanner is a friend of mine. She leads my bible study at church. Her husband is an attorney. I wonder if he was the attorney who was taken hostage. She is a woman with a beautiful spirit, a very pro life person in a field dominated by abortion crazy feminists. She has one adopted daughter in midle school. As a family court judge she would occasionally ask for prayer for people in various circumstances who had come before her court. (Not by name, of course.)

So, prayers for Sharon and her family!!

I agree. By no means am I saying that there was an incident or a coverup. If there werent any dead fish, I would not have posed the question.

Back to lurking with my mouth shut.
