The reality is many clubs + fans under International Soccer do not want American clubs playing > Soccer will become one more thingy Superpower Amers will dominate andor control. IOW, by this logic Soccer is SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHH for the Weak, not the Strong.
A Boeing 757-200 in airline service carries 200 passengers plus cargo. The C-20 is a Gulfstream III, carries 12 passengers with a range of 4250 (B model) or 4850 (H model) miles. Washington DC to San Francisco is 2426 miles. Hardly a case for Pelosi rejecting the C-20 for lack of nonstop range.

Pipe bombs found in an aqueduct that supplies water to millions in Southern California were probably not intended for sabotage, but for fishing, state officials said Thursday. The bombs turned up along with cars and other debris when water levels were lowered for a routine cleanup.
The five small bombs found in a branch of the California Aqueduct were typical of those used to stun and collect fish, the state Department of Water Resources said in a statement. "Similar devices have been found previously when water levels in State Water Project facilities are drawn down for maintenance and other purposes," the statement read.
The bombs were found this week in a section of an aqueduct branch in the Mojave Desert about 100 miles east of Los Angeles. Two had already been exploded, and the others were detonated by the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.

It's easier and not so dangerous to get one of those phnes with the crank, run a wire into the water, and crank the phone. The fish float to the surface and if n ot picked up eventually swim away. an It's noisless. So I've heard.

I've used one of those generators to get worms to surface, doubt it's powerful enough to stun fish.

Giant Frog-leg(s) hunting I'm willing to tolerate, but FISHING??? As far as I know, eating [contaminated?] frog legs isn't popular in that part of Californey, unless someone just likes seeing legless frogs squimper about.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
