The media has been pretty lame on this (surprise) the worst probably being the NY Post, claiming 12 deaths up to 20 or so hours after the blasts.

There's word that these were IEDs in pressure cookers with ball bearings and headless nails. If so, the object was to inflict maximum injury and strain the capacity of hospitals to manage care. The only thing left out of the playbook was a second explosive in the immediate area of each first explosive. That's the classic terrorist tactic for the first responders.

Bravo to the marathoners who kept running past the finish line all the way to donate blood at the hospitals.
