Hook fact is footnoted, and hook source is online, verifiable and appear to be reliable. Hook short enough. No neutrality or BLP concerns. Article new enough and long enough (3335 characters). Refs in proper format. No concerns with reliability of sources. Random googling of various sentences indicated no concerns related to copyright violations, close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article. Good to go. BTW, I changed "in route to" to "en route to" in the hook. I have never seen "in route to" so I assume it was a typo. Pls revert as needed. Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 03:18, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
