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.

Police Secure Businesses on Terror Alert
NEW YORK - Police searched trucks, blocked streets and posted machine-gun toting officers outside financial landmarks Monday, a day after the government's chilling warning that terrorists might target the buildings with bombs.

Feds: New Pictures of Prudential Building Taken in January

(Elizabeth-AP, August 6, 2004) — Authorities have evidence that new surveillance photographs were taken of Prudential Financial's headquarters in Newark in January, Department of Homeland Security Deputy Secretary James Loy said Friday.

"Both inside and out," Loy told The Associated Press following a ceremony to confer badges on officers of the department's U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office.

Officials have said that Prudential, like financial institutions in New York and Washington, had been under surveillance as possible terror targets since before the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.

But in response to repeated questions, Loy said new photographs were taken in January of the building's interior and exterior, and were not simply old photographs that had been altered or otherwise updated.

"New pictures," Loy stressed. It was not immediately clear where the photos were found.

Friday's disclosure by Loy came as President Bush in Washington defended last weekend's decision to issue terrorism warnings and tighten security in New York, Newark and Washington, saying "the threats we're dealing with are real" even though some of the intelligence on which the government acted was as much as four years old.

Loy said he had no information on who took the new pictures. But he said possibilities included current or former employees, clients or delivery people.

"I have no information about the source of the photographs," Loy said. "It could be a customer, it could be an inside job."

Asked how he knew when the photographs were taken, he replied, "Well, when you get your pictures back from Wal-Mart, do you have some idea when you took them?"

Asked whether that meant the photographs had dates stamped on them, Loy grinned and replied, "We have evidence when the pictures were taken."

You're right, we can't afford to skip anything.

It get's difficult to discern sometimes, especially with the "move along" mentality.

We've been checking the terrorscumbags to see if they are leaving certain areas.

We should add in the one's who could know what is really in the works as well.

Especially slick willie and his 'wife.'

I don't know if this has been posted, so I'll just put the pics and the link.

Suspicious Activity in Scranton

If you've run into two men asking questions about the Chamberlain plant in Scranton you're not alone. The plant makes shells for the military. Scranton police and the F.B.I. have information that two men were asking questions about the plant on Cedar Avenue and investigators want to know why.

The Chamberlain Manufacturing Corporation makes ammunition shells. Last year the plant was working on a $22 million contract for the government, making 25,000 shells a month.

Just got home from my typical friday "outting" and am still on meds so bear with me.

I'm looking at the bridge from Niagara Falls and trying to remember some conversations here last January? February? about Wedding Veil falls. Does anyone remember if any of those conversations play into this picture?

Hi crabbie...you are still in my thoughts and prayers...I hope that you are doing and feeling well.

I do recall Niagara Falls being in the news and in TM posts back in the winter as well. When I posted the bridge picture with the bomb threat article this morning, I was trying to wrack my brain to recall specifics. Could have possibly been related to the Lakawana Six that were arrested from upstate NY....but I am not sure.

Chuck Schumer was on Fox and Friends this morning. They asked him if he thought the raising of the terror alert was a political move by Bush. His answer was NO! He said it is a real threat.
.
The sheeple will only remember the idiotic sounds bites, it's old info and a political move by Bush.

Update on the detained cargo ship off the coast of Newark:
It appears to be a simple case of rotten lemons.

Shipload of rotten lemons to be fumigated, destroyed

8/6/2004, 2:24 p.m. ET
The Associated Press

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — The U.S. Coast Guard said a shipload of contaminated lemons would be fumigated and destroyed after a container ship carrying them was intercepted before reaching port.

The ship CSAV Rio out of Argentina had been held offshore since Saturday after the Coast Guard received an anonymous report that contaminated lemons were on board. The Coast Guard escorted the vessel to Port Newark on Friday.

The initial report alleged that containers on board the ship contained an unknown "harmful biological substance."

A 20-person Coast Guard team boarded the vessel Saturday and conducted screening tests for biological hazards. None were found.

The containers were to be scanned, fumigated with chlorine dioxide gas, and taken to an incinerator, where both the fruit and the containers were to be destroyed.

For him to actually admit that, it must be serious.

Yep, that was my thinking too. He's been privy to some of the intelligence.
