　　Good afternoon, everybody. Earlier today, I was briefed by my homeland security team on. We're continuing to monitor and respond to the situation as it unfolds.

And it's a day that drawsthe world to Boston'sstreets in a spirit of friendly competition. Boston is a tough and resilient town. So areits people.
