Around SBN: Bracketology 2012: Duke Finally Steps Up To The No. 1 Line

Per the AP: "Counterterrorism officials have issued security bulletins to police around the nation about terrorist interest in attacking stadiums, entertainment complexes and hotels, the latest in a flurry of such internal warnings as investigators chase a possible bomb plot in Denver and New York.

In the two bulletins, sent to police departments Monday and obtained by The Associated Press, officials said they know of no specific plots against such sites, but urged law enforcement and private companies to be vigilant. These two bulletins followed on the heels of a similar warning about the vulnerabilities of mass transit systems.

The bulletin on stadiums notes that an al-Qaida training manual specifically lists 'blasting and destroying the places of amusement, immorality, and sin... and attacking vital economic centers' as desired targets of the organization."

Just what we need with the G20 circus in town. Stay safe, everybody.
