Hasan’s court appearance is scheduled for 10 a.m. today in the Lawrence J. Williams Judicial Center here on Fort Hood. Hasan's defense team wants the court to rule on whether Judge Col. Gross has authority to order him to be shaved. Gross has said he would force Hasan to be shaved by Aug. 20 and held him in contempt of court twice for having a beard.

KPD warns businesses before Hasan trial
In anticipation of Maj. Nidal Hasan's upcoming court-martial, Killeen police have begun canvassing restaurants, telling staff to keep their eyes open for possible suicide bombers.

The ongoing effort has sent several officers to area restaurants to hand out fliers providing tips to spot terrorists.

The flier encourages restaurant staff to establish security procedures and a "threat alert system," it states.

"We're just going around and covering all bases," said Killeen police spokeswoman Carroll Smith. "We're not trying to scare anybody. Things like this happen, and people need to be prepared for anything to happen."

Its instructions include telling staff to know all delivery vehicles and staff who routinely come to the restaurant, installing security cameras and to make note of any suspicious people, statements or actions.

That police would target restaurants ahead of any other businesses may reflect the terrorist attack they foiled in July 2011.

AWOL Fort Campbell, Ky., Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo intended to detonate a bomb at a Killeen restaurant.

Abdo, 22, was within hours of completing a homemade bomb he planned to set off at a Chinese restaurant frequented by Fort Hood soldiers and then shoot any survivors.

He will be sentenced today in a Waco federal court after being convicted on May 24 of several weapons charges and attempted murder of federal employees. He could face life in prison.

The flier, titled "Potential Indicators of Terrorist Activities Related to Restaurants," tells staff to consider people who are alone and nervous and loose or bulky clothing as possible indicators of a suicide bomber.

"We're just trying to sharpen their senses," Smith said.

It also tells them to look for exposed wires on people's sleeves, a rigid midsection that could be an explosive device or a gun and tightened hands that could be holding a detonation device.

A terrorist also could employ props in a bombing such as a baby stroller, shopping cart, a suspicious bag, backpack, golf bag and a bulky vest or belt.

Police also will pass the information along to any business that sees a high volume of people.

Seems to be a word or two missing from this article - Islam, and Muslim for instance. If they work at it, maybe they will put out tips for identifying Tea Party Terrorists. If you see a Koran, just go about your business, nothing to worry about...

Follow up:

The hearing ended at 10:10 when Major Hasan showed up with his face still unshaven and the court issued yet another rebuke.

Another hearing will be scheduled for maybe next month.

(sarcasm? I wish!)

I don’t think Kileen needs to worry so much after the Luby’s massacre. Everyone will be carrying if they have to be out today.

Jack Ruby please pick up the white courtesy phone...

This hassan idiot needs an immediate “moozlum shave” at neck level.

? this is insane !
he killed people, and the Judge is delaying justice,
because of the BEARD ?!?
(or maybe they just want it delayed until after November?)

[Responsibility2nd]

You nailed it. There is no way this muzzie murderer will go to trial while the muzzie-in-cheif occupies the White Hut.

Meanwhile - Major Hasan continues to draw a full Army salary.

Not to mention he is wasting oxygen.

FORT HOOD - Alleged Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan is being held in contempt for the third time after showing up to court on Thursday with a full beard.

Hasan has been told to shave multiple times and has received three fines totaling $3,000 for showing up with the beard that is against military standards.

A judge told Hasan at a previous hearing that if he has not clean shaven by the time the trial started, he (the judge) would shave his beard off himself.

Hasan was kicked out of the courtroom for the fourth time at Thursday’s hearing and forced to watch the proceedings from a closed-circuit television in a trailer located outside the courtroom.

In court today, attorneys on both sides plan to discuss expert witnesses they may want to call in. One potential witness, Evan Kohlmann, is a terrorism expert who has studied the shooting and has taken the stand for the government in dozens of terrorism cases.

Hasan’s trial is scheduled for August 20.

I see that the lying sack of *%$# was shaved. Hope they nicked him.

[Responsibility2nd]

Did I call it or did I call it?

And what do you think will happen on August 20? More of the same.

[Albion Wilde]

O.K.! So he wasn’t shaved for today’s hearing. Don’t they have any straight jackets down there? This is obviously on orders from the Obama Defend All Muslims Nodule (ODAMN).

[Terry L Smith]

“Jack Ruby please pick up the white courtesy phone...”

Amen on that one!

[hattend]

If this massive asshole has not been discharged yet, he shouldn’t even have a beard.

Shave him with a circular saw and save some taxpayer money.

[TurboZamboni]

A month from now they’ll still be arguing over how/when/who shaves his beard.

After that, it’ll be what kind of Halal food he gets and whether or not infidels touched it causing him mental anguish.

Bury him to his chin in my yard, I’ll shave him with my riding mower.

[BuffaloJack]

This carrion eater needs to be hanged.
