ARTICLE SNIPPET: "LOS ANGELES -- Security officers detained an Iraqi national at Los Angeles International Airport early Tuesday after a suspicious item was found on the man during a body cavity search."
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "He remained in custody as federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials went over his immigration paper work. Federal officials said the man's green card may have expired.
Ethel McGuire, assistant special agent in charge of the Los Angeles FBI office, said this afternoon that al-Maliki had "a magnet, wires and I don't know what the other item was. It's being evaluated as we speak." After al-Maliki was searched, the Los Angeles Police Department bomb squad was called to the airport to examine the suspicious item."

"New Airport X-Rays Scan Bodies, Not Just Bags"
PAUL GIBLIN and ERIC LIPTON
PHOENIX, Feb. 23 — X-ray vision has come to the airport checkpoint here, courtesy of federal aviation security officials who have installed a new device that peeks underneath passengers’ clothing to search for guns, bombs or liquid explosives.
The new body scanning machine, which went into use on Friday at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and will be tested later at airports in Los Angeles and New York, will screen only volunteers, at least initially. Transportation Security Administration officials want to make sure the machine is reliable and fast enough to replace the traditional pat-down — and that it does not provoke too many protests.
Security officials examining the head-to-toe images work in a closed booth, hidden from public view, agency officials said. Special “privacy” software intentionally blurs the image, creating an outline of a body that is clear enough to see a collarbone, bellybutton or weapon, but flattens details of revealing contours."
