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.

With the nation on high alert for al-Qaida terrorists, the Department of Homeland Security is putting its border officers through "etiquette" classes to soften their image and make them less threatening to arriving foreign immigrants, WorldNetDaily has learned.

Two weeks without my 11 year old. The little ones aren't ready for time away from home.

I've missed him; it's good to have him home again.

"REX-84 plan calls for the country to be divided up into several military districts, each being run by a military governor."

Now you know why our boys are coming home.

Do you have any a source for this?

I'd like to know what he was doing in a federal building.

It is sweet! FIRST shot my husband said you missed the whole target, we went to look, dead center.

Always a good feeling. A friend allowed me to shoot his Thompson Contender with a match quality .22LR barrel. First shot at 25 yards looked incredible. I pulled the target back from the 25 yard mark. It was dead center. Like someone took an office paper punch to the target. My "buddy" was so jealous that he ran the target out to 15 feet and nailed it with a 12 gauge shotgun. We don't go shooting together anymore.

I have two rifles on my wish list. The Ruger 10/22 with the hammer-forged (spiral) bull barrel and a Savage 12-series in .204 Ruger with the precision trigger. The 10/22 is a fine tack driver at 100 yards. The .204 Ruger produces 4000 fps muzzle velocity. That looks to be a very fine target rifle. I don't know if I'm ever going to have time to do any hunting.

Fire erupts in Juneau's downtown
"TINDERBOX": Firefighters throw everything they have at stubborn building blaze.


By CATHY BROWN
The Associated Press

JUNEAU -- A major fire that may have started from a roof-tarring job Sunday burned a 103-year-old building containing at least three businesses in downtown Juneau.

KTOO radio reported that the fire was called in as a small blaze but spread quickly in a building occupied on the first floor by a Subway sandwich shop and a Chinese restaurant. Other businesses, including a travel firm, were on the second floor.

The building on the southeast corner of Front and Seward streets is a block from the waterfront and three blocks south of the Capitol. Front Street was the original waterfront of Juneau. Mine tailings were used as fill to create another city block.

Downtown Juneau is crowded with tightly packed wood buildings, many of them more than 50 years old, and firefighters rushed in to keep flames from spreading.

Witnesses said the fire created yellow-brown smoke that enveloped much of central downtown and made it hard to see and breathe.

The entire Capital City Fire and Rescue corps was on the scene dousing roofs of nearby buildings, including a Ben Franklin store separated from the damaged building by an alley. Firefighters cordoned off streets at least a block in each direction.

The fire was called in at 3 p.m., City Manager Rod Swope said.

Firefighters were pulled out of the buildings about 4:30 p.m. because of the amount of smoke.

There had been no injuries, Swope said, and firefighting operations were in a defensive mode.

As of 8 p.m., flames were still visible and firefighters continued to pour water onto the building.

"I would say this is going to be an all-night affair," said Martin Beckner, acting fire chief.

Wade Bryson, owner of the Subway restaurant, said the fire began during a small roof-tarring repair job. The roof of the building caved in, he said, and his business was lost.

"This is just a 100-year-old tinderbox," he said.

Beckner would not confirm the cause and said several possibilities had been mentioned.

He said layers of roofing and void spaces caused the fire to spread quickly. He said the old building had been expanded several times.

"New fire codes are designed because of instances like this," he said.

Antonio Dusi, a tourist from Italy, said the firefighting was keeping him from reaching his room at the Alaskan Hotel a block away on Franklin Street. He had a ferry ticket for Haines for today. Police told him to walk around for a while.

"At least I would like to collect the luggage, if not sleep," he said.

The temperature in Juneau on Sunday reached 78 degrees, and skies already were hazy from forest fires in British Columbia

NK doesn't require a ballistic platform to reach the US. They have the largest submarine fleet in the world.

Don't think for a moment that Iran has something that NK doesn't have, or vice-versa.

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

OK you are getting over my head but the The Ruger 10/22 is one of my husband's favorite, he has a few/several vagarious and all the extras to go with (wink). I ask him all the time is he going to fight Saddam himself.


I read all the talk about guns on the thread but it makes me nervous. We watched Tomestone AGAIN last night so I am fired up.


We never take the shotguns out not much fun except the double barrel 410 pistol but we can shoot it around the house.

Now if I thought I was was in danger. I would get out the Mossberg 9 shot. We found the mini shotgun shells so it will hold 13 (I think) one chambered Can you believe we picked this up at wallmart?

[Velveeta]

I've searched for the "press release" on this and can't find it.

[Velveeta]

My first thought, could it be they choose names that are words that are known to them?

Either that or there are far more cities/towns/villages etc. with ancient names than I ever realized. LOL!

[Velveeta]

Oh dear. Prayers for their safety and rescue.

Very strange.

[HipShot]

There's nothing to wait for, really. I'm sure that the mullahs are hoping that Israel takes out the reactor, so they have some semblance of an excuse to use the nukes that they have.
