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!

the chemical was a blue dye used for clothing. ER has been reopened.

Kinda makes me wonder what the criteria is for closing down an ER. Blue dye could have been common ink.... How much different would isolation of the worker and his contacts at the hospital have been until results were known?

Odd numbered nights (on the Muslim calendar, which Ramada determined observationally by seeing when the waxing crescent is first visible) during the last 10 days of Ramadan are held by Muslims to be particularly efficatious time to win Allah's favor. Thus they are particularly dangerous times, since the terrorists regard attacking us as a means of securing Allah's favor.

It seems that the night of "al-Qadr", the night of power, is one of the nights of the last 10 days of Ramadan, occurring on an odd numbered day of the Ramadan calendar. Although the specific night is supposedly not known to Muslims, it is most often thought to be the 27th night of Ramadan, which is tomorrow night. Good deeds become greater, prayers are lifted higher, supposedly, on this night.

al Qadr is actually 'The Night.' Lailat is 'power'

I work right under the flight path for Norfolk International, and we have small planes zooming in every five minutes. Sometimes I feel like I need to duck.
