In this week's update and newsletter:

* Son of Al Qaeda Founder is Dead (Maybe)
* Gunman Kills 3, Injures 12 at California Food Festival
* Best Practices for Vehicle Screening Against Terrorist Tactics
* USNI Fleet and Marine Tracker
* Commentary / Analysis / Research
* World News Roundup

Three shortened hyperlinks are provided in the Weekly Update SMS message sent to your mobile device (as well as shown above). These links are safe to click.

Links marked 'SERVER 1' and 'SERVER 2' lead to platforms allowing you to easily listen to the weekly audio update message. Two different links are provided in order to accommodate differing handsets and download needs. It also adds a measure of redundancy.

The final link marked NEWSLETTER leads to a mobile friendly version of the weekly Threat Journal newsletter, which provides an greatly expanded written version of the audio message, links to additional information sources, news items resources, and more. In most cases, you should also receive Threat Journal in a separate, standalone email. KEEP THAT SUBSCRIPTION as there is often content provided which is best viewed on a standard computer.
