...lively Evangelical mass. When the parishioners finally paused from their verses, they thanked God that the device had caused no injuries - and had hardly even damaged the BMW car belonging to one of the faithful, under which it was placed. The bomb, made of a tiny amount of C4 plastic explosive, was designed to scare rather than scar, police said - like dozens of similar bombs that have detonated across Honduras as the nation prepares to vote on Sunday in the first election since its President Manuel Zelaya was forced out in a military coup in June.

The third-year Bill suffered a fracture and disclocation of his spine, in which the C3 and C4 vertebrae in his spinal cord were telescoped when he went in to tackle the Broncos' Domenik Hixon on a kickoff return. Everett's helmeted head made contact with the hard plastic of Hixon's shoulder pad, and he immediately dropped to the ground, his spinal cord shocked by the impact. "He had a compressive load to his spine, and the spine doesn't handle those kinds of loads very well," says Dr. Joseph Kowalski...
...given their level of education, isn't it surprising that the plotters chose such crude weaponry? Yes and no. True, the foiled bombs were rudimentary collections of gas canisters, gasoline and nails--no biological, chemical or radioactive elements, not even any C4 or TNT. But what matters is not the technological complexity of a device but how many people it can kill.
