Here's the article: Washington to Go on `Orange' Terror Alert, CNN Says (Update1)

quote.bloomberg.com
Aug. 1 (Bloomberg) -- The Department of Homeland Security will announce today that it is putting Washington on a higher terrorism risk status, or ``orange'' alert, joining New York, according to CNN.

The agency has announced a 2 p.m. Washington time press conference with Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, and it wouldn't confirm the CNN report.

Senator Joe Lieberman, a Connecticut Democrat, said on CNN that such a change would be a way to say to terrorists, ``You're not going to surprise us like you did on Sept. 11.''

The New York Police Department said earlier today that it has received intelligence reports that al-Qaeda, the terrorist group that attacked the World Trade Center, ``continues to target commercial and financial institutions, as well as international organizations.''
