The Threat Matrix

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!

Was Bomber's "New York" Shirt A Message?
Full Story

It's hardly a unique fashion statement for a mass transit rider: a Yankees-style cap, and a "New York" sweat shirt.

But the New York Police Department is teaming with British authorities to determine whether those items were worn by suspects in the London terror cases to send a "purposeful message" to the city, according to an NYPD officials.

David Cohen, the NYPD's deputy commissioner of intelligence, raised the concern earlier this week at a security briefing for business leaders at police headquarters in Lower Manhattan.

East Tammany Parish, DONYA STREET. Please look for articles that mention the condition of buildings or survivors from this area or street. Thank you so very much, folks. It is very hard to even teach with this fear hanging over us. The absolute worst part is that I'm not sure if they belong to Christ. I'd rest easier if I knew they were "IN" the Lord, certain that I'd see them again.

ExSoldier - I will keep an eye out also. I am a Louisiana native of 28 years and my mother's house is/was in Metairie. This is so sad.

[ExSoldier]

PERFECT! Thanks!

[Velveeta]

I'll keep searching, ExSoldier.
And praying.

Do you know if there's a subdivision name?

Some articles list the subdivions.

Fox reporter just said vans with HIV/Aids patients trying to get to the Superdome, others with freshly looted new pairs of sneakers [not one pair but many] trying to get there as well.

I guess all of this is going to Houston. I would think it would be wiser to not put all these people in one huge place again. Louisiana has other large cities likes Shreveport where they could set up Red Cross/Fema evac cities. I don't get this solution of shipping them ALL to Houston.

A note to all:

Joe allbaugh former FEMA Director, says it could take 10 days to get relief trucks in. They showed them all lined up and I asked myself why is it taking so long!!

As we have said many times everyone needs to be prepared to fend for themselves for weeks if need be. Use this as an example!!!

[ExSoldier]

I don't think it's in a subdivision. The home sits on some land. It's over 100 years old wood structure that was built by great grandfather, apparently. I personally think that if the roof came off under the winds, there would be nothing to keep the walls from instantly collapsing. I don't see how a 9 year old or even a 15 year old could survive. I fear the very worst. But I can't express this to the rest of the family. Thankfully, they're not freepers. Not even computer literate. Older folks, which will make the loss of GRANDCHILDREN even worse.

[ExSoldier]

WOW! This is the most specific and narrow link yet! I feel like I'm zeroing in on some closure and I owe it all to my freeper friends. Praise God for you all.

They showed them all lined up and I asked myself why is it taking so long!!

Multiple bridges have been wiped out and many others are not passable yet because of flooding. The pontoon bridge over lake Pohachtran (sp) is open only to light emergency vehicles. Many roads are washed out and still flooded. Until they can get the roads opened up, they can't get the supplies forward. One must be prepared for emergencies! Each depending upon the potential disaster.
