UPDATE: AP sources: No sign of US entry for terror plot

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senior U.S. officials say there's no evidence that anyone linked to al-Qaida has entered the country to carry out an attack on the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.

The officials insisted on anonymity to discuss the investigation.

Police and FBI agents remain on alert as investigators look for proof of a plot against Washington or New York.

Since late Wednesday, counterterrorism officials have chased a tip that al-Qaida may have sent three men to detonate a car bomb. At least two of those men could be U.S. citizens.

By Saturday, there was still no intelligence backing that up and officials continued to question the validity of the initial tip.

For those of you in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area, Have you ever ...

I’ve never boarded any of my dogs there. But, whatever kennel you’re considering boarding your dog at, you should visit and inspect. Things to look for: the staff do not treat the dogs there harshly, they ask you a lot of questions about your dog, they don’t hesitate to show you the kennels, the kennels are clean, all dogs have water. Red flags: the staff seem to be irritated, they ask for money but not for information about your dog, they won’t allow you to see the kennels or they do allow you to see the kennels but you have to wait several minutes to do so, the kennels are dirty, some or all of the dogs do not have water.
