DEARBORN-Police in Dearborn are trying to understand why a pressure cooker was left in the restroom of the Adoba Hotel, forcing the evacuation of guests until the early morning hours.
The evacuation also canceled Sunday nights banquet of the University of Muslim Association of America.
Asgar Zaidi of Washington D.C. has been attending the organizations conference for the past 11 years. He says its the first time its ever been held in Dearborn.
We all look forward to this time of year, Memorial Day weekend we have fun, we learn and its just disheartening to see this type of stuff happen here, said Zaidi.
The pressure cooker discovered at the hotel was detonated by police as a precaution, but contained no explosives.
Dearborn officers have determined that the pressure cooker had not been converted into any type of explosive device.
Pressure cookers were used in the bombings at the Boston Marathon....

It is hard to run against 0care when RomneyCare was the basis behind it.
Running a gun grabber such as Romney is a surefire way to piss off the base. When you were the first state governor to sign an "assault weapons" ban, it is difficult to demonstrate a difference when your opponent supports the same.
Running an abortionist is a surefire way to piss off the base albeit he is not as rabid about baby murder as 0bama, but when you manage to piss off your base in every other aspect, this gets highlighted as well.
Running someone that agrees arming Al-Qa'ida (Syria; Libya) okay makes you not only foolish on foreign policy, but difficult to demonstrate a difference from your opponent (0bama) when he supports the same thing.
Getting cozy to the homo agenda is a surefire way to piss off your base.....again it is difficult to show a difference when your opponent supports the same.
Using the GOPe to play primary tricks (ala Virginia) to handicap your primary opponents leaves voters with the feeling he was foisted upon you.
Destroying and smearing candidates with infinitely stronger conservative values in the primary and then running a lackluster campaign against the other side of the aisle doesn't instill confidence.
If by 'lead the stupid to the right', and you are referring to "the right" = Romney bear in mind Myth Romney is to "the right" of maybe Stalin, but certainly not right of center.
Further, there is not one single item I listed above that Hillary Clinton differs on. Since Myth decided to switch parties, let's allow her the same. If it was Obama(D) vs. Hillary (R) in 2012 who would you have voted for?
Being a conservative should also mean being able to think for yourself and not falling for everything Log Cabin Coulter tells you to think......for the record homo "marriage" and homo agenda are not conservative values. But that didn't stop the timeless attention whore from aligning herself with them.
Lastly, Romney was such a good candidate that he became President Romney in 2013.......oh wait.
He got his @ss handed to him by a candidate that allowed: an American Ambassador was raped and killed with three other Americans, in a down economy with high unemployment. Scandal after scandal. Doubling of the national debt. No budget since the beginning of the term. Increase in taxes. Unable to protect the homeland from terror attacks. Trillion dollar "stimulus" giveaways.
But, Romney was the best.
Now we know why its called the Stupid Party.
WHO was your pick?
Gingrich had the history of Contract with America and the Republican sweep, but he had a lot of other baggage with the serial adultery and cozy moments with Pelosi on their eco-couch. I figured it would be harder to elect him than some of the others.
I wasn't overly excited about Perry and his passionate conservatism towards illegals, but as time went on and I conducted more research it appeared some of the things in TX were done in compliance with fed law...ie dealing with a problem already in existence. Hell why not let illegals have the in-state tuition rate? I'd rather they were in college getting a degree to hopefully contribute to society rather than sitting on their @asses for terminal seista collecting welfare.
Cain appeared to need work on foreign policy. However, both Cain and Perry appeared to have similar values to me. I wasn't looking for the perfect candidate but was willing for the Reagan 75% solution.
I was previously familiar with Myth before and "etch-a-sketch" and flip flop were adequate descriptions of him.....and of course say whatever I think people want to hear whether I believe it or not. It seemed this became more and more apparent throughout the primary.
Later on, I was more and more solidly on Perry's side. In the end I favored Newt over Romney. I could not find anything other than 'down with 0bamacare' to agree with him on. I didn't trust what he said about illegal immigration.
This was a man with a big tent mentality, not socially conservative, for weapons bans (or for them before he was against them, after he was for them again because he was a life long hunter, or shot at some squirrels once). He flip flopped and lied blatantly throughout the primary and it was BS him and the GOPe conveniently played fast and lose (which I didn't catch what had happened at first as I was deployed when the changes went into effect) in keeping Newt and Perry off the ballot....even though I wasn't in the Newt camp it was still crap that we didn't even have a choice.
Then after Romney won the primary system, he fumbled. He had one decent debate against 0bama and fizzled. He played cut throat when going after conservatives. Against 0bama he put on the kid gloves and the invisible magic negro glasses.
Romney was a younger version of "my friends" McCain, which is why his staff had so many form McCain staffers.
