Militia leader Robert Starr III and members Troy Spain and Jimmy McCranie also were found guilty of possessing an unregistered destructive device. They face up to almost 22 years in prison on the charges.
The three were arrested in April and accused of conspiring to use pipe bombs on roads, vehicles, bridges, power lines and federal law enforcement officials.
Prosecutors said Spain hatched a plan for financing their "war" against the government by robbing armories and drug dealers.
Kevin Barker, a government informant and prosecution witness, testified that while discussing plans for a special operations team to rob drug dealers, Spain said he hoped they'd make enough money to quit work and train full time for Olympic terrorism.
The team members planned to use remote control devices or gunfire to detonate lunch boxes filled with explosives, Barker testified.
Defense attorneys argued that the three did nothing but talk about making bombs and were lured into the conspiracy by government informants.
Starr and McCranie were arrested when federal agents found buried explosives on Starr's property. Spain, 28, of Warner Robins, turned himself in in May.
The ThinPrep test by Cytyc Corp. is a new way to prepare Pap smears so that this vital test for cervical cancer isn't marred by a smudged laboratory slide.
Pap smears can detect abnormal cells before they become cancerous, or find cancer early enough to cure it. Cells are scraped from the cervix, smeared onto a microscope slide and analyzed for abnormalities.
Sometimes excess blood or mucus mingled with the cells smudge the Pap slide, however, and women must be retested.
With ThinPrep, doctors don't prepare the slide. Instead, they stick the cervical swab into a special vial where chemicals separate the cells from the trash. The laboratory filters the cells onto a slide for a cleaner test.
The FDA approved ThinPrep in May as an alternative way of preparing Pap slides. But yesterday, Cytyc said the FDA had pronounced ThinPrep significantly more effective than standard Pap smears. Now Cytyc will advertise the test directly to doctors in an effort to make ThinPrep the new standard of care.
SMITHTOWN, N.Y. - Scallop trawling already has produced hundreds of pounds of more wreckage from TWA Flight 800, encouraging investigators who are counting on finding key parts of the plane.
"We're very surprised at the amount we're bringing up and we're obviously very happy about it," Shelly Hazle, a National Transportation Safety Board spokesperson, said yesterday.
A boatload that was brought up yesterday included metal beams and one of the Boeing 747's tires, investigators said.
