Secondly, what may appear to be more worrying, a woman of Pakistani origin was found to have two containers of liquid in West Virginia that were picked up by a sniffer dog and then later tested positive after a swab for explosive materials. This incident does seem more severe although discretion may also be required. On one hand, sniffer dogs are very well trained with an incredible acute sense to smell, but on the other hand the swab machines test positive for materials other than explosives. So will have to wait to see the outcome. BBC link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/5261456.stm

The woman turned out to be only carrying a bottle of water and a tube of handcream. She has been cleared to travel by the FBI as early as this morning. Story here BBC Link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/5261456.stm
