Who'll take responsibility for Lahad Datu?
That speaks of a lack of accountability and ownership in the face of a crisis.
What is happening in Lahad Datu could not have been a sudden development. It certainly is a situation that has gone ignored for some time.
To begin with, when the citizens of Sabah complained and groaned about the rising presence of aliens in their midst, the BN leaders silenced the rakyat by lambasting that opposition members were politicising and instigating the rakyat to go against the government.
Today, with the on-going RCI on the treacherous IC-project, we are beginning to unearth the diabolic, short-sighted and certainly most foolish political agenda that was set in motion by the leaders of BN.
Ku Li has just admitted this act of treason - but in cloaked words, consistent with his thoroughbred heritage.
But BN now chooses to hammer the opposition political opponents of having links of sorts and talking with the rebels.
Between talking to the rebels and granting citizenship to aliens by the millions, which is a greater sin against nation and people?
The other point that is being debated in the marketplace is the question of how come armed men could come ashore in boats and yet go un-noticed by our security?
Who takes responsibility for this fundamental failure? How come BN leaders are mum on this matter?
In the first place, we also know of the 'water community' in Sabah. We have always wondered how come all these zinc and plank outcrop of dwellings remain so un-noticed in the sea where a colony of aliens have been successfully rooting for so long.
Yet the authorities could not see?
And now in the face of an exposed IC / citizenship racket and in the midst of the Lahad Datu attack where things are going wrong by the weeks, the BN leaders conveniently choose to train their guns on the opposition leaders and party members.
Does these all not smell of the same old modus operandi of the Mahathir Mohamad era where make believe enemies were created to shoo and shore the rakyat to fall behind the BN-vote agenda?
The least that the prime minister and his comrade-in-arms the home minister could do is to take responsibility.
The PM as the leader of this nation should owe up to the fact that this is a time where the safety, security and dignity of the nation comes first. Not party politics and election agenda.
As prime minister Najib Razak is foremost a leader for all citizens and politicians and therefore he should recognise that in the face of a foreign and alien enemy, politicians from both sides of the divide in the country need to be collaborated and consulted with to work together to ensure the security of the nation is prioritised.
Not use a national crisis to shoot your political opponents down into the gravel.
By blaming the opposition and suspecting that they may be in cohorts with the country's enemies only further exposes that the BN government has failed miserably in guaranteeing the safety and security of this nation.
Wonder why the BN politicians could not see through this logic in the first place.
It is likewise time that the home minister, too, took personal and professional responsibility in the wake of the botched Lahad Datu invasion.
Why did we in the first place end up having to surround them on land, a group of armed men numbering some hundreds, when the only way for them to enter the country was by sea?
Where was our border security? If it was absolute failure, then let us say so in the best interest of protecting king and country in the future.
It is too late in the day to continue dishing out the same old worn statements that "we are investigating"; "stop the rumours"; "we know what we are doing".
The rakyat are asking some very pertinent, simple and honest questions out of concern, care and worry for the nation, its king and democracy.
The talk in the market place and corporate corridors is: If we cannot even stop a hundred armed rebels what would we do if there was an aerial attack or a platoon crossing into the country through the jungles that border our nation?
And what would you expect if the millions of foreign labor comprising of a potpourri of legal and illegal as well as 'naturalised' citizens, become sympathisers to future rebel invasions?
Perhaps, for starters former premier Mahathir Mohamad may want to answer to the citizens. But certainly, the current premier and home minister owe the rakyat better answers.

Despite the potential goldmine that foreign tech firms see in the Chinese net-space, the age-old story has been that foreign companies fail time and time again. If the fall of some of the largest tech firms (ie. Google, Facebook, and Twitter) is not a significant deterrent to hopeful startups, the labyrinth that is government oversight, protection, and licensing is often seen as the final nail in the coffin.
This trend is challenged, however, by a handful (or more) of successful examples particularly in the mobile app market, including such names as Flipboard, Rovio, Tapjoy, and InMobi, all of which will be represented at this year's exclusive GMIC VIP Dinner on May 9th. Moderated by Fritz Demopolous, Founder of Qunar and veteran of China's Internet market, the discussion will be both thoughtful and provocative as experts exchange their experiences.
China is set to be the world's largest smartphone market this year, according to recent findings from IDC. This puts significant pressure on foreign developers to reach for some market share before its all snatched away by Chinese counterparts already brutally competing in a variety of market sectors (including online video).
It should prove to be a lively talk between professionals with extensive experience. At the dinner, expect to hear Luo Chuan's story about MySpace's mistakes and the challenges of running a mobile app business in China. More details about the dinner can be found here.

The Northern Territory government has hit out at a federal government decision not to allow crocodile hunting safaris.
Two NT ministers have accused the federal environment minister, Greg Hunt, who turned down an application to legalise crocodile hunting in the territory, of being shortsighted and ill-informed.
"My view is that there was a risk of cruel and inhumane treatment," Hunt told reporters in Canberra on Thursday.
But the territory's minister for land resource management, Willem Westra van Holthe, said: "Canberra needs to take its foot off the territory's throat."
"Crocodile safari hunting has the potential to create real employment for Indigenous people in remote parts of the territory."
Westra van Holthe said the NT government had extensively consulted with traditional owners and lodged an application for a one-year crocodile safari trial, under a scientifically researched plan that demonstrated the economic benefits to the territory.
Under the existing crocodile management plan, the government is able to harvest up to 500 crocodiles from the wild each year, while the safari proposal sought to harvest 50 crocodiles from within the existing quota on a one-year trial basis.
It was suggested that safari packages could cost between $20,000 and $50,000, appealing to high-paying hunters from around the world.
Westra van Holthe said the proposal was humane, with animal welfare standards maintained by having a conservation officer and traditional owner attend every safari.
"We are severely disappointed with Greg Hunt's shortsighted and ill-informed decision," he said.
It was taking away work opportunities for Indigenous people who needed it the most, said Bess Price, the minister for parks and wildlife.
"Greg Hunt has made a decision which will do nothing to improve the lives of Indigenous Territorians living in remote communities," she said.
The decision was at odds with the commonwealth government's priorities of developing the north and ending welfare dependency, she said, as well as boosting tourism.
The NT government is now exploring alternative pathways to make crocodile safari hunting a reality.
It may be able to legislate to permit the safaris but could face the obstacle that foreign hunters would be unable to take crocodile carcasses out of Australia without federal permits.

Summer Collection Launches at Local Vintage Store
Puerto Rican transplant and owner of Furor Moda boutique, Tatiana Torres enjoys scavenging for unique vintage pieces. Oversized flowy caftans from the 70s, white lace poufy skirts from the 50s and bright hued bold patterned tops with an 80s flair are some of the treasures she's recently unearthed in thrift and vintage shops. "I dedicate a lot of hours hunting. I really want to tell a story with timeless pieces paired with fun modern [garments]," said Torres.
Furor Moda which stands for the woman who isn't scared to try something new is based online and specializes in carrying both local designers and vintage on her online shop. Most of her stock retails for $50 and under.
When she's not meeting clients who prefer to try on the clothes in person at her Biscayne Corridor offices. You can find the petite brunette participating in art events like Wynwood Art Walk where she mostly sells accessories like sunglasses, jewelry, purses and headgear such as vintage headbands.
She also had her first fashion show at The Stage for an art event called Raw:The Blend. "I am so happy to have gotten that first show under my belt. I feel like there's no stopping me now," she said.

- 3 Granny Smith apples
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1 (1-pound) bunch Lacinato or other kale
- 1 celery root, peeled and diced
- 3 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 1 slice bacon, diced
- 4 (6-ounce) black bass fillets, with skin
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
How to Make It
Core and coarsely chop apples; process in a blender or food processor until liquefied. Strain through a fine sieve, reserving juice and discarding solids. Place juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in vinegar and cream. Simmer 2 minutes, remove from heat, and set aside.
Remove stems from kale, and cut into 2-inch pieces. Cook in boiling salted water 5 minutes; drain. Plunge in ice water immediately to stop the cooking process, drain, and set aside.
Sauté celery root in 1 tablespoon melted butter over medium heat 5 minutes or until tender, and set aside.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter; add shallot and bacon. When bacon is almost crisp, add kale, and cook until thoroughly heated. Set aside.
Score fish skin diagonally two or three times, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a cast iron skillet. Sear fish, skin-side up, until lightly browned. Press fillets flat with a metal spatula to prevent curling. Transfer skillet to oven, and bake at 350° for 5 to 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Arrange kale in the center of the plate; sprinkle celery root around kale. Top with fish, and spoon sauce around celery root.

Requiem for a Devil
The great flames of Hell danced with ardent fury but only for brief moments. Sadly they withered and receded to a pitiful dance along the brimstone walls. An uneasy hush rippled across the throng, broken in fits and spurts by nervous whispering. Not a soulless wretch among them dared approach for what seemed like eons, though really, time in Hell is a little funny.
Finally, painfully, slowly, little Hezzekuh crept along the crumbling stone stairway and poked his round, horned head within view, "Master, why does the almighty lord of Hell, Pain, and Suffering weep?"
Once again the fire of Hell stoked blazing hot, searing through the sulfurous air of the cavernous inferno. No sooner had they done so then they wilted pitifully, impotently back to a sad blue ripple along the gulleys and crevices. The rage of Hellfire had been reduced to a whimper and a gasp.
"Master, please," pleaded small Hezzekuh, a cherub in negative, "Why do we not go and sow some discord and mischief among men? You used to like that. We all do. Come, let us do...evil."
The devil moaned, the villain of villains defeated at last, "Oh young Hezzekuh, don't you see? What need does the world have of me? What evil can I wrought that is not already being worked out feverishly in the hearts and minds of men. Do evil, you ask? My lad, it's all been done."

So near yet so far. Thirst is starting to make me feel ill. But I'm not thinking about it. The mountains are all I can think of. That's there the answers are. But where in the mountains? What's in the mountains? What if there's nothing there? The only way is ahead. Not behind. I glance over my shoulder, I feel like something is following me in the mist. It's unnerving. Very unnerving. My stomach rumbles. I'm hungry. But I'm trying not to think of what I'm feeling. I'm thinking of what's ahead.
So many questions I have. But no one to ask. I grip my body tighter to try and keep myself warm. I feel temperatures dropping. I'm cold, hungry and thirsty.
No. I'm not thinking of that. The mountains. I am getting closer. Closer to answers, closer to seeing what is in the mountains. I feel my eyes drooping and my knees are starting to shake. I could collapse at any second, but the only thing keeping me going is hope.

Country crooners LeAnn Rimes and Taylor Swift are two of the Grammys youngest honorees, with Rimes taking honors as the youngest Grammy winner at age 14 for her hit single "Blue," and Swift snagging the 2010 "Album of the Year" for "Fearless" after just turning 20 the month before. Suddenly, your youth looks a lot less accomplished.
On the flip side, cigar-chomping comedy king George Burns was the oldest Grammy honoree at 94 years old, winning the 1990 "Best Spoken Word Album" award for the audiobook version of his non-fiction book, Gracie: A Love Story.
Although it seems odd to imagine an award show where Kanye West isn't ready to storm the stage at any moment, there was a time where hip-hop was just a twinkle in the eyes of every award show telecast. But history was made when DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince swept the first-ever "Best Rap Performance" Grammy with their timeless take on parents just not understanding things, "Parents Just Don't Understand."
While a slew of artists have set and broken Grammy records over the years, only two have the honors of sweeping all four ("Record of the Year," "Album of the Year," "Song of the Year," and "Best New Artist") of the General Field categories: Christopher Cross with his self-titled solo debut, and Adele, for being a generally flawless human being. Also for her 2008 and 2011 albums, "19" and "21," respectively.
Right behind those two are hip-hop/soul pioneer Lauryn Hill and singer-songwriter Norah Jones, who both took home "Album of the Year" and "Best New Artist" awards during their first-ever Grammy outings. Oddly enough, so did affable comedy nice guy Bob Newhart, who won the same awards in 1961. Now you know what Christopher Cross, Adele, Lauren Hill, Norah Jones, and Bob Newhart all have in common.
At the 1959 inagaural Grammys, only 22 awards were given out, with Ella Fitzgerald, Henry Mancini, Ross Bagdasarian Sr., and Domenico Modugno leading the pack with 2 awards each. As of 2013, there are 81 categories and countless nominees.
Who took home the first Grammy for "Best Rock & Roll Performance"? None other than Chubby Checker, of course, who won the 1962 award for the timeless "Let's Twist Again," the follow-up to up to 1960's "The Twist." Remember when song sequels were made in moderation? R. Kelly sure doesn't.
Grammys have been awarded to tracks of countless creeds and genres, but only one award-winning song from The Flaming Lips holds the odd honor of boasting the longest title to ever be tacked to a Grammy: *deep breath* "The Wizard Turns On…The Giant Silver Flashlight And Puts On His Werewolf Moccasins," the recipient of the 2007 "Best Rock Instrumental Performance" Grammy.
If you're feeling lazy now, just wait until you hear this: jazz and blues legend Ray Charles won a staggering five awards at the 2005 Grammys — over a year after he passed away. He currently holds the record for most posthumous Grammys won in a single night.
And in 55 years of prestigious award ceremonies, this only happened once. Never forget Soy Bomb. Never Forget.

No Down-Low Bruthaz Here
Damn R. Kelly. While he wasnt busy making videotapes of distasteful sexual acts and his ridiculously long urban soap opera Trapped in the Closet, Kells recorded Down Low, a steamy ballad with a phrase that has worked its way into the cultural lexicon. Thanks in part to Terry McMillans explosive divorce scandal, the supposed down-low phenomenon has become a hot-button issue. At this years Miami Beach Bruthaz weekend retreat, men all shades of fine will be celebrating gay pride, enjoying fabulous dinners, hosting seminars, and, yes, discussing with J.L. King, author of On the Down Low, the issue of same-gender loving and infidelity. Expect some light to be shed on the shady trend at his panel discussion and book-signing event today at 11:00 at The Hotel. Admission costs $50 and includes lunch. After the serious issues are addressed, hot dudes can get down at the Night Cap afterparty at Club Boi, 726 NW 79th St., Miami. Out and proud rapper Trudog will perform at 1:00 a.m. Visit www.miamibeachbruthaz.com.

Thread: Fifth Gear reviews the Cayman R
Fifth Gear reviews the Cayman R
The Cayman R is a great little sports car. Porsche essentially took the Cayman S and removed a bit of weight, upped the power, and lowered the ride height. They didn't just take out a tiny bit of weight, but 121 pounds vs. the Cayman S. Horsepower only grew by 10 but that is likely to keep it from destroying the standard 911 which with a PDK transmission, 330 horsepower, and only 3000 pounds it likely already does. Check out the video review.

The translations for v3.6 characters have been provided by LaserBeam in IAHGames forum for Reckless Emilia, Catherine, and Valeria: "This was a bit hard to translate according to my friend, so there probably are a few mistakes related to the names and such, but you'll get the general idea anyway."
Join the Dark Side!
The reason why she lost her temper?
She tried to find her missing father on 3rd chapter, she heard Dr. Lorenzo, her father's story, excelling the constellation her father found Emilia who's been studying hard on ancient antique. Then couldn't handle the power of ancient knowledge. She lost the reason to study further and becomes a reckless character. Now she poses powerful combat skill and knowledge.
I was right. She's alive!
She whose Life is in Secret
Orpesia's best alchemist, Dr. Torsche's daughter, she was kidnapped and faked death...
After under influence of Duke Pelipe, from the educational institution, she learned infiltration and poison, and assassination, there for obtaining amazing skill but worried that all the hostages would be killed, she has never been involved in Frunandez's warfares and fights.
From Erunandez's brainwashing, her memories of childhood was sealed, therefore forcing her to believe that he is her real father just as Strataxbista's apprehension. Torsche sees Biorke's cooperation, to discharge the role of the taking hostage, and comes to the new world.
Ragnar: "Valeria can not be Gabriela twin sister,
Princess Gabriella's hidden twin sister
From the vespanola king, Princess Gabriella's twin sister, Valeria, following Stratacbista's traditional birth was concealed. Stratacbista followed all the demands from the king and if king's one and only child was to be sacrificed to protect his most beloved he prepared and raised a twin Valeria, with no name, grew up in secrecy. Her proper camp was undone, forcing her to hide in the deepest camp later, the name Valeria was given to her by her rescuers, the colonists.
Because she was hidden for so long she does not know much about the world she live in now she faces adventures.

Stung by scepticism over the viability of the projected DeLorean sports car plant for South Belfast - and particularly by comments that the Government would be "daft" to invest a penny until it had a lot more details - the Northern Ireland Office defended the venture vigorously yesterday.
In a prepared statement Minister of State Mr Don Concannon said the project had been thoroughly researched by Mr John DeLorean and his colleagues, virtually all of whom had years of experience in the US car industry. "Before public funds were finally committed Mr DeLorean's proposals were subjected to a searching examination by the Northern Ireland Development Agency and the Department of Commerce," he said.
The Minister failed, however, to remove an apparent discrepancy of £8 million in the figures for the size of the British Government's investment suggested by Secretary of State, Mr Roy Mason, and Mr DeLorean respectively. He said that the cost of the project had not increased since Mr Mason made the announcement nearly two weeks ago and that the figure of £65 millions stood "from here on."
"The total cost of the project from its inception is, of course, greater than this since it includes all the costs incurred to date to advance the pre-production activities. These have been funded entirely from private sources and are therefore outside the arrangements recently announced," Mr Concannon said.
Mr Concannon also referred yesterday to Mr DeLorean's warning to potential investors that they should be able to afford the loss of $25,000 which has been seized upon by critics as evidence of high risk. The invitation to invest has been made in terms demanded by the Securities and Exchange Commission at a time when the project was being developed and there was no assurance that it would eventually be adequately funded and go forward.
"Because of its magnitude the process of evaluation leading to Government approval was particularly thorough and covered not only points made by commentators but many more besides. it is up to all of us in Northern Ireland to help the company to make the project a resounding success," the Minister said.
Mr DeLorean checked out of the Belfast Hotel yesterday and was not available for comment. But his venture is already having a "spin off" effect locally. Mr Peter Simms, chairman of Ireland's biggest steel stockholders, the Simms Steel Group, announced that work would be beginning shortly on a further extension of the group's premises at Lisburn only a few miles from the projected car plant.
The DeLorean car plant eventually went bust in 1982 amid reports of missing taxpayers' money

I woke up at 4:30 to the smell of smoke and Heather screaming to wake me up. I shot up and saw Heather beating something down with her hoody. Oh shit! The kitchen! It's on fire! I must've left the stove on and it caught something on fire. I am so dead. I told Heather to call 911. I went into the kitchen and it was like a massive ball of heat just hit the left side of my face. I stood back. It felt like my entire face was on fire.
Heather came up to me after calling the fire department. She was yelling over the roar of the fire, but I could barely hear her. But I did hear one word: Ashlynn. I yelled to Heather to get out of the house so she wouldn't get hurt. She insisted on staying to help, but I screamed at her to go.
By then it was probably about five o'clock and the house was full of smoke. The living room started to catch fire. Ashlynn's room was right next to the living room… I gotta get to her fast. I ran through the fire and tripped over a chair and my body slammed onto a coffee table engulfed in flames. I felt the fire scorching my left side and back and had a piece of glass from the table in my side. But I got up and rushed into Ashlynn's room. She was hiding under her blanket for a little protection. I picked her up and carried her to the door and told her to cover her face. I raced through the smoky living room and burst through the front door and ran across the yard to Heather. I set Ashlynn down on the ground. All I remember is seeing lights, hearing a siren, and then blackness.
I woke up at like 4:30 ish with a blanket on me and looked at Michael and smiled. But then I smelled something: smoke. I got up and ran to the kitchen and saw everything in there on fire. I ran back over to Michael and was screaming at him to wake up. I took off my hoody and started beating back the flames but they kept coming. I think we left the stove on from the marshmallows! Michael yelled to me to call 911 so I looked for my phone and remembered I put it on the coffee table that is now on fire. So I used Michael's phone instead. I called and told the operators that there was a fire. I was practically in tears when I told them where we were.
After I was done with the call, I went to find Michael and yelled to him that Ashlynn was still in there. I hope she's okay. I'm not sure if he heard me or not, but he screamed at me to go outside where it was safe and so I could flag down the fire department. So I ran outside and stood back far enough from the house. I was so worried about Ashlynn and Michael.
I waited outside for about five minutes and then the fire trucks came. I waved my arms and yelled to them. Before they pulled in, the front door whipped open and I saw Michael carrying Ashlynn. He made his way across the yard towards me, set down Ashlynn who was in tears, then collapsed. I started to freak out, so I bent down to see if he was still breathing. He was, but really faintly. The medics saw him go down and ran to his side with all their equipment. I realized that I was crying and asked one of the medics if he was going to live. They said if they could get him to a hospital on time.
I went next to Ashlynn and picked her up so she could sit on my lap. She was crying and asked me if Michael was gonna be okay. I said yes. Which was a lie, I didn't know if he would be or not. I just held her closer and sat there crying with her.
The medic walked over and told us that Michael had severe burn marks all up the left side of his back, face and neck and a deep wound from glass in his side. So the medics took me and Ashlynn with them in the ambulance because Ashlynn didn't wanna be away from Michael. As we drove away, I saw the firemen hose down the house.
I still had Michael's phone in my hand and dialed my house number. I didn't think anyone would be up this early at home, but dad picked up. I told him what happened and said we were in an ambulance on the way to the hospital. He said he'd meet us there as soon as possible.

Stuck in Europe
By Marmaladebrat 18 Comments
In Europe
Well, my name is Gregg and I am a pretty big fan of the Giant Bomb web site and the podcast. I am typically checking the web site on a daily basis for new videos from the crew, new reviews on the web site in general and reading and checking out the forums. I work for a Dutch company in New York City. I listen to teh podcast on the train into New York City often too. Every once in a while I must go in to the company's headquarters in the Netherlands, once or twice a year. It is typically a nice experience because I get to stop in Amsterdam and I like to travel for the most part.
My latest trip to the Netherlands was going well. I got a day in Amsterdam and went to the Anne Frank House, a surreal experience being in the actual rooms that Anne Frank and her family and the van Pelts actually hid in, and wandered around the city. I even had a nice lunch in a cafe in the city. That afternoon I headed off with a colleague on the train to s' HertogenBosch (Den Bosch in english), a smaller Dutch city nearby my compny's headquarters is.
The next couple of days were full of meetings and catching up with Dutch co-workers. Overall a very nice experience. I heard about the volcano in Iceland on Wednesday but did not think much of it. I also continued to visit www.giantbomb.com and started taking part in some of the quests. I even started to edit the Wiki as part of the quest system too. I did some silly little edits to get some quest points; Parappa The Rapper and Neo Geo Pocket and Bandai.
Stuck in Europe
Then on Thursday night my flight out of the Netherlands on Friday afternoon was cancelled.
The next morning I spoke to the company's travel agency and Continental Airlines. I was rescheduled to fly out by Continental on Sunday. Well, guess what happened? On Saturday afternoon that flight was cancelled too.
Disheartened and not in a good mood in a small city with few shops open in the Netherlands, I ended up spending a good part of Sunday on Giant Bomb and on the Wiki. To keep myself busy and my mind off the miserable situation I ended up editing a bunch of Wiki pages; Swordquest EarthWorld, FireWorld, WaterWorld and AirWorld from the Atari 2600 days.
Giant Bomb Wiki
Now it is Tuesday and I am still stuck in the Netherlands. I was supposed to be here five days and am now here nine days.
Giant Bomb's Wiki has kept me busy and sane which is great. Thanks guys. I have now gone on to create a Jack Tramiel page on the wiki and have added some much needed information to the Scott Adams text adventure games Adventureland, Pirate Adventure and Secret Mission.
I am also thankful that I have a hotel room about an hour away from Amsterdam. There are people out there that have it much worse than me, that are stuck in airports with no hotel rooms. Or do not have simple pleasures like good co-workers that are helping like I have or even internet access to keep in touch with family. I am hopeful for all those people who have it worse than me.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and wish me luck in getting home soon.

Vegas bookmakers want Broncos to cover Super Bowl spread
By Frank Pingue
(Reuters) - Las Vegas casinos aren't against Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning winning a Super Bowl in what is likely his final game but prefer the Carolina Panthers deny him a fairytale finish without covering the spread.
If top-seeded Carolina win the National Football League's title game on Sunday and cover the 5-1/2 point spread it will be much less favorable for the house than if Denver were to lose the game and stay within the spread.
MGM Resorts International, which operates 10 sports book on the Las Vegas Strip, expect most bets to come during the final 24 hours before kickoff but admitted a trend is in place.
"If it continues to pace the way it's pacing we're going to be massive Broncos fans. We're going to want the favourite-to-win-but-not-cover scenario," Jay Rood, vice president of the race and sports book at MGM Resorts, told Reuters.
"A Broncos win wouldn't be disastrous, but it wouldn't be the best-case scenario for us."
Denver, who have 39-year-old future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning at the helm of their offense, are seeking a third title in their record-equaling eighth Super Bowl appearance.
Carolina, appearing in only their second Super Bowl, will be relying heavily on the NFL's highest-scoring offense led by Cam Newton in their quest for a maiden title.
Sports bettors wagered $116 million in Nevada on last year's Super Bowl, down 2.8 percent from the record $119.4 million spent the previous year when the Seattle Seahawks routed Denver. Continued...

Beat the Spread!
问题描述 :
Superbowl Sunday is nearly here. In order to pass the time waiting for the half-time commercials and wardrobe malfunctions, the local hackers have organized a betting pool on the game. Members place their bets on the sum of the two final scores, or on the absolute difference between the two scores.
Given the winning numbers for each type of bet, can you deduce the final scores?
Given the winning numbers for each type of bet, can you deduce the final scores?
The first line of input contains n, the number of test cases. n lines follow, each representing a test case. Each test case gives s and d, non-negative integers representing the sum and (absolute) difference between the two final scores.
For each test case, output a line giving the two final scores, largest first. If there are no such scores, output a line containing "impossible". Recall that football scores are always non-negative integers.
2 40 20 20 40
30 10 impossible
import java.util.Scanner; public class Main{ public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); if (scan.hasNext()) { int n = scan.nextInt(); for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) { int s = scan.nextInt(); int d = scan.nextInt(); if (s < d ||(s+d)%2==1) { System.out.println("impossible"); } else { int a = (s + d) / 2; int b = (s - d) / 2; System.out.println(a + " " + b); } } } } }

Pycnogenol truly is nature's antioxidant; in liquid and capsule formats with the option of added grape seed extract for more antioxidant power, Pycnogenol is setting the new standard in health supplements.
Originating from the lush forests of Southern France, Pycnogenol uses the active extract of French Pine Bark as a source of antioxidants, with more antioxidant potential than Vitamins C and E! These antioxidants scavenge free radicals within the body and reduce oxidative damage done to our skin, tissues, liver and overall health. Oxidative damage can arise from dietary choices, stress and environmental factors; Pycnogenol helps to attenuate the damage done to cells and DNA.
Aside from general health, clinical studies show that Pycnogenol benefits specific areas of human health as well. This includes reducing airway inflammation in asthmatics, helping promote immune function through antioxidant activity, improving skin health in psoriasis cases and boosting cognitive function in athletes.
Moreover, Pycnogenol carries significant benefit for vision and joint health; clinical studies illustrate it having a protective effect on the retina as well as helping with healthy cartilage function for joints. In the landscape of human health, Pycnogenol does it all!

It's the only time teams have access to players for free, and it remains the foundation for building teams. Maybe it's not so much the drafting, but the development. I think Detroit's success has been in finding players that fit a certain style or possess a specific set of skills, who then are developed in a very specific way.
Back to the baseball vs hockey modeling. I think you're bypassing the question. Is hockey a sport that can be modeled?
I hope this doesn't get lost, but hockey is much more a game of random events. There's simply too much going on the ice with too many variables (number of players, conditions, etc.). Baseball is somewhat static
in comparison to hockey
the development of a 17-18 year old skaters tells a lot more than people believe ... for North Americans ... It doesn't tell the whole story for all skaters, but players who do much better than predicted by my model or people who do much worse is very rare.
I suspect the Red Wings to have such a model, at least for europe, because a lot of times when my model tells you to get a certain player, the Red Wings have picked him, from Jonathan Ericksson to Franzen to whoever.
there's still scouting to be done after my model is applied for sure, since my model isn't complete in the first place, and I'm sure scouting could help avoid some of the mistakes my model gives up since some players have obvious flaws (like Mike Danton) that would keep a team from drafting a certain player, but can't be added in to the model yet.
also, my model can't predict high school players and players out of the USHL, much like Billy Beane with his high school players. It's not that they can't be good, but right now a coin flip is more accurate for them than my model.
