"Media Company Taking Responsibility For 'Hoax Devices'"

BOSTON -- Turner Broadcasting plans to take responsibility for the "hoax devices" that were found at several locations in and around Boston Wednesday that forced police bomb units to scramble throughout the area.
The incidents were part of a marketing campaign that involved a character from the cartoon show "Aqua Teen Hunger Force."
"The 'packages' in question are magnetic lights that pose no danger. They are part of an outdoor marketing campaign in 10 cities in support of Adult Swim's animated television show 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force,'" Turner Broadcasting said in a statement.
The company said that they have been in place for two to three weeks in Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Seattle, Portland, Austin, San Francisco and Philadelphia.
Turner Broadcasting is in contact with local and federal law enforcement on the exact location of the billboards, according to the statement, and regrets that they were mistakenly thought to pose any danger."

"Pakistani student convicted in firearms case in the US"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Houston, Jan 31: A Pakistani student, one of four men accused of attempting to aid Taliban militants, has been convicted in a firearms case in the US.
Shiraz Syed Qazi was yesterday found guilty of unlawful possession of a firearm in a 15-minute trial conducted by US district court judge Lee Rosenthal. The accused had waived his right to a jury trial.
A recently-established federal law makes it illegal for non-immigrant student visa holders like Qazi to possess firearms.
Qazi's three associates, Adnan Mirza, Kobie Williams and Syed Maaz Shah are accused of material support of terrorism by training to fight with the Taliban against US-led forces."
