Credit: The Cabal 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. "I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat."

Thanks Cindy, good to be back. The move went as well as could be expected. :) I hate moving and I hate the clean up even worse!
Hi Piper, I'm still alive. Although my back is killing me. I think I pulled it moving a very heavy recliner couch. Right now I'm feeling about twice my age. LOL. I saw some mention of some potential projects but didn't really have the time to follow up. Want to bring me back up to speed?
Goodness, that would be horrific!
Hi Vel! Thanks for the welcome. I feel like I usually do when I get back from my annual elk hunting trip...completely disconnected from the larger world and out of touch. (Not that that's always a bad feeling) :)
And remember there was the apparent postponement of something in New Mexico on 5/11 this year.
Great to see you made it through your move.
Welcome back, I'm behind on this thread myself. So I'm going backwards. ;-)
You were just mentioning Las Vegas - I think it has been and still is high on the list:

El Salvador Tightens Security After Iraq Threats
Aug. 9, 2004 SAN SALVADOR (Reuters) - El Salvador stepped up national security measures on Monday after a group claiming ties to al Qaeda threatened to attack the Central American country unless it pulls its troops out of Iraq.
The group, which calls itself Mohammed Atta Brigades - al Qaeda of Jihad, has vowed to strike inside El Salvador if the tiny nation does not cancel its plans to send a new contingent of soldiers to Iraq this month.....

NJ Transit Workers Getting Anti-terror Video
Aug 9, 2004 5:19 pm US/Eastern
(1010 WINS) (NEWARK) NJ Transit has sent an anti-terror video to its 3,000 rail workers, whose trains will undergo increased scrutiny during the upcoming Republican National Convention.
NJ Transit's trains stop in New York's Penn Station, directly below the Madison Square Garden convention site. The convention is scheduled to run from Aug. 29 to Sept. 2.
The 15-minute video, "Warning Signs," was produced by the Federal Transit Administration and discusses how to recognize passengers and packages that might pose a threat.
Some conductors told The New York Times they worry they are being asked to act as law officers.
"The DVD was distributed to employees in the interest of giving them the tools they need to identify suspicious activity and report it," NJ Transit spokesman Dan Stessel said Monday. "Our goal was to empower our employees, not scare them."
The video asserts, "As transit employees, we are the first line of defense against those who wish to disrupt and disable America's public transportation system, so it is imperative that we know what to do if and when we encounter the warning signs of terrorism."
Conductors are represented by Local 60 of the United Transportation Union, which covers about one-third of the NJ Transit rail workforce. Xavier D. Williams, the local's general chairman, said NJ Transit has not given employees enough information.
"We've been given a video and offered a class, but other than that, we're in the dark right now," Williams told the newspaper.
Stessel said the agency has had four meetings with union leaders, and will be conducting a third employee forum on security this week.
Steps being taken the week of the convention include inspections of New York-bound trains before they leave rail yards, and another inspection before they enter New York, Stessel said.
NJ Transit will also ban the use of overhead luggage racks, seal trash receptacles and close most bathrooms on trains, Stessel said.
Not all elements of the security plan for the convention will be disclosed, he said. "There will be a number of countermeasures that will not be visible to our customers, but will be there," Stessel said.
About 60,000 of NJ Transit's 100,000 weekday rail riders go into New York on about 280 trains.

Well, the "braided beard" search was interesting, JP. From evil to interesting, from Egypt to the 2004 Olypmics, from the moon cycles to Satan, from cultures, religion and art, from warriors to men and yes, even women...the search was a real eye-opener. Here's a sampling:
