A government official tells CNN that members of Congress were briefed by the White House, intelligence and other officials on Thursday that there is a “specific, credible but unconfirmed threat” to the U.S. homeland as the 9/11 anniversary approaches.

King’s Plaza in Minersville, PA, which is the home to one of the greatest restaurants in the Coal Region: Palermos. I wanted pizza today, too.. Guess that won’t work out.
