BREAKING: WHITE POWDER ENVELOPES -- (37* found so far originating in TX) + 1* incident of powder found elsewhere
I posted this on another thread earlier, but I think it bears repeating here:

This morning on my way into work I was listening to a popular morning show on the radio (Kidd Kraddick) and one of the news blurbs for the day was a report that MORE envelopes of white powder had been found all across the USA today (and I thought - what? *more*? Where was the report of the initial few?) and that so far they were found to be harmless and that the pervailing thought was that perhaps this was some form of 'test' of our system or response from 'terrorist' groups.

Anyways -- thought it was strange. Also thought it was interesting due to the flu posts for Maryland & Portugal.

DALLAS — More envelopes containing a suspicious white powder have now been opened from coast-to-coast, and at least one was reportedly postmarked in North Texas.

One letter opened at a school in Maine had a Rowlett, Texas postmark, according to the Bangor Daily News.

It was one of seven envelopes to arrive at campuses across the country on Tuesday.

Schools in Plano (TX), Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, and even as far away as Anchorage, Alaska got letters. Most were addressed to elementary schools.

An Elementary school in Hartford, Conneticut got a white envelope... but this article goes on to say that back in FEBRUARY there were even more envelopes being sent out from OREGON (not Dallas as the current ones are).

On Feb. 23, U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman's office in Hartford received an envelope containing white powder. Authorities said a number of state offices of U.S. lawmakers, as well as media organizations and offices for TV shows, had received similar letters, all postmarked from Oregon.

Suspicious white powder mailed to two Plano elementaries, four other locations (Updated)

An envelope containing a suspicious white powder has been discovered at a Murphy elementary school and is being investigated by the FBI.

The incident is the sixth of its kind to have occurred in North Texas during the last two days. The latest incident occurred at Boggess Elementary, a Plano ISD school located in Murphy.

...

On Monday, five envelopes containing a suspicious, yet harmless, white powder were opened in Dallas and Collin counties.

More info on the powder threats that happened about 12 days ago originating from Oregon (in addition to Lieberman):

[link to www.politico.com]

By SCOTT WONG | 02/24/12 8:12 AM EDT

POWDER PUFF -- Mysterious powder found its way to multiple congressional officers yesterday for the second time this week. They came from Portland -- at least according to the return address. The Associated Press reports: “The letters bore a return address from ‘The MIB’ and were postmarked Portland, Ore. The Portland return address on the letters appears to be phony. The combination of the address given -- 2413 NW Burnside, ZIP code 97209 -- does not exist. … The letters tell the recipients that there is a ‘10 percent chance you have just been exposed to a lethal pathogen.’ Even though none of the letters that have been tested have contained harmful substances, Gainer told staff to be extra vigilant. … The sender wants an ‘end to corporate money and `lobbying,’’ an end to corporate ‘personhood’ and a new constitutional convention. The Associated Press obtained a copy of a letter.” [link to DON'T_USE-THIS]

Yeah -- I am following that thread.

So far, Five family members diagnosed -- counting those who already died.

No Powder mentioned, but I am keeping my eyes open on both since the timing is so strange. FYI -- the first batch of white powder envelopes hit the news within a few days of when influenza-A patient zero (Ms. Blake) got sick.

Apparently there have been FOUR sent to Alaska, not just one -- subject line updated to reflect three more envelopes.

More in Alaska:

JUNEAU EMPIRE
On Wednesday, Juneau became the fourth Alaskan city this week to receive a suspicious envelope containing a white power substance addressed to the school district.

Similar letters were sent to the Tanana School District west of Fairbanks, Southeast Island School District in Thorne Bay on Prince of Wales Island and the Chugach School District in Anchorage, according to FBI Special Agent and spokesman Eric Gonzales.

One letter that caught her attention had a return address label with a woman's name written in script and with a return address in Arlington, Texas.
<snip>

Mrs. Sargent said, adding the letter was simply addressed to the school on a computer-printed label. “I don't know why, but I kind of got a red flag when I opened the letter. It was folded in thirds, and I grabbed it by the bottom fold and gently opened it. That's when I saw ‘Where the hell is Scooby Doo?' and something about a CIA operative and saw the white powder. I never touched it. I never smelled it,” Mrs. Sargent said.

Clinton Police Chief Mark R. Laverdure said it appears the letter “originated from Texas, just like the other ones.”
