The Weirdest Thing on the Internet Tonight: Modin
Like running out of gas on the final lap, spiking the ball on the one yard line after a Hail Mary, or catching the game-winning run sleeping on his lead at third, there is no worse feeling than losing on account of a premature celebration. The same goes for robo-bums fighting over a battery?you've got to plug in before doing the touchdown dance lest you wind up just as dead as your opponent.

UK police: Pedophile probe finds widespread abuse
LONDON (AP) ? A new investigation re-examining decades-old child abuse claims at 18 children's care homes in north Wales has identified 140 possible victims, British police said Monday.
The probe collected "significant evidence of systemic and serious sexual and physical abuse of children" at the care homes, police said in a report. The alleged victims, mostly men, were from 7 to 19 years old when they say they were targeted between 1965 and 1992. The alleged offenses ranged from verbal abuse to indecent assaults and rape.
"Many (of those interviewed) have provided graphic accounts of abuse, in some cases of very serious criminality," Detective Ian Mulcahey said.
The number of care homes was larger and the timeline involved was longer than previously thought.
The new investigation, known as Operation Pallial, was set up in November after a BBC report alleged that a previous inquiry failed to uncover the full extent of the abuse against children in the homes. The earlier inquiry, which concluded in 2000, settled dozens of claims on behalf of the victims.
Since Operation Pallial was launched, police said 140 complainants have come forward to name 84 individuals ? 75 male, nine female ? as being responsible for offenses. One person has been detained in the new investigation.
Detectives said the inquiry was continuing and urged anyone with information to come forward.

Android Picks Up The Pace In Smartphone Sales Over iOS Globally, While Windows Phone Continues With Modest Gains, Says Kantar
Google's mobile OS Android continues to power ahead as the world's most popular smartphone platform, according to figures out today from Kantar Worldpanel Comtech, the WPP-owned market research company that tracks sales of handsets across key markets on a 12-week rolling cycle. In the nine markets surveyed by Kantar -- Australia, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, UK and the U.S., all detailed in the table below -- the only one where Android did not dominate was Japan, where Apple's iOS just about eked out a lead against it (49.2% versus 45.8% of sales) for the three months ending March 31. Elsewhere, the figures indicate that regardless of whether the market is developed (U.S., UK, Germany) or emerging (China) or struggling financially (Spain), collectively, Android handset makers are winning them all, with sales figures for the platform reaching their high point in Spain, at 93.5% of all smartphone sales.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/689TQoc3xa0/

Baffert won't start a horse in Kentucky Derby

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) ? Bob Baffert won't be saddling a horse in Saturday's Kentucky Derby for the first time since 2008.
The Hall of Fame trainer said Monday that Govenor Charlie would not run. His other possibility, Code West, also won't compete in the Derby at Churchill Downs.
Sunland Derby winner Govenor Charlie was 11th on the points leaderboard that determines the 20-horse field for the 1?-mile race. Code West was ranked 21st.
Baffert hasn't been on the Derby sidelines since 2007 and '08. He has won the race three times, but not since 2002.
Govenor Charlie galloped Monday for the first time since April 11, a layoff caused by a foot bruise and soreness in his hind end.
"You cannot have any kind of hiccup," Baffert said. "We want to be competitive and if you're not competitive, my clients don't want to be in there. We're just going to watch and good luck to everybody else."
Baffert said Govenor Charlie could be pointed toward the May 18 Preakness, while Code West is a possibility for the Belmont Stakes on June 9.
Three weeks ago, Baffert took Santa Anita Derby runner-up Flashback out of consideration because of a knee injury that will sideline the colt at least two months.
"It wasn't meant for me to be in the Derby this year," he said.
Baffert will saddle Midnight Lucky in the Kentucky Oaks on Friday, then fly home to California for his youngest son's first Communion on Saturday, when the family is planning a Derby watch party.

It's More Fun to Travel in the Philippines: Backpackers Adventure in ...
We call ourselves the packers!?
Well, you know what we mean.?
Our group's name ?started from my name in my FB fan page (Smart Backpacker). And we just started calling ourselves "the packers!" We started our first travel in Puerto Galera, Mindoro. But the name started in Sagada. Now, we continued our travel to Tablas, Romblon!
We had 4 choices for our summer escapade, namely: Caramoan, Palaui Island, Baler and Tablas, Romblon. Originally, Tablas was not part of the choices. I suggested it after I went to Romblon.
We started our online voting on where we are suppose to go and it turned out that the last choice would be the group's choice.
And so, I booked our group in 2GO Travel and everything went well as planned.
We missed 2 of our packers, Jonas and MJ!

Terminal 3, Batangas Port
9:00 pm
Day 1
There were only 8 of us that night when we boarded the ferry travel to Odiongan, Romblon. The packers present were Nikko, Jen, Feng, Lester, Ces, Dave, Joyce and I.
The cost of the economy ticket was P815.00. The travel to Odiongan was good for 7 hours and while onboard the vessel, we decided to have a bit of drinking spree to start our trip right!
Day 2
We arrived at the Odiongan Port around 4 am and the beauty of the port captured my excitement already. I told myself, "We are going to have a good time here!"
From the port, we were fetched by the owner of the resort (Mr. Willy) and we paid P1,000 for the van. The trip to the resort is 30 minutes or 17 kilometers.
And finally, we arrived at the Binukot Sunset Cove Resort located in Brgy. Bunsoran, Ferrol, Tablas, Romblon. The owners of the resort are Mr. Willy (an Australian) and Ms. Michaela (a Filipina) (Contact nos. 0929-787-5486 / 0999-423-1040). The couple are very kind, accommodating and generous. You will definitely feel at home on your stay at this resort! Well taken cared of and loved!?
And we rented this house for only P2,500. The house was good only for 5 persons but we told the owner that we were 8 and the Ms. Mica agreed to allow us to have the house and even gave us extra beds for free! The entire resort has a wifi.
After taking our early breakfast, we decided to stroll in the beach and explore its wonders! We were not disappointed! It was simply an amazing experience.
The place is actually a huge cove. And at the end of the cove, there is a small island. And while we were at the other end of the cove, ?we gathered seashells and stones as our souvenir for the trip.
We were having a good time! Probably, one of the best times of our lives!
And here we are in a paradise called Binukot Beach!
??
Time simply flew.. And we were there at the beach.. Laughing and enjoying!
The place was so beautiful that we could not stop taking pictures!
We were there posing from one spot to another.
And as always, I was the one tasked to take our pictures. I mean why should it always be me??
Coz, I simply love them and I wanted to have them to have a good time! =)
Around 11 am, we decided to go to the other side of the cove and we discovered a smaller cove!
What a treat for us! Two coves in one resort.
Past 2 pm, we chartered the van of Mr. Willy and headed to Mablaran Falls. We paid only P1,500 for the van. The trip going to the falls from Binukot Beach was almost 1 hour.
Only Nikko, Lester and I decided to go to the second falls. From the first falls to second falls, it took us 20 minutes to reach the second falls. And the trail was rugged and slippery. ?In fact, I lost my footing and everything (including my cameras and phones) got wet!
After almost 2 hours of staying at the falls, we decided to go back. We did not want to miss the reason why the resort was called Binukot Sunset Cove Resort!
Day 3
We woke up early the following morning after our late night drinking spree. My head was killing me that day (case of serious hangover!). But I did not want to spoil the fun! I pretended to be alright.. We took our early breakfast and proceeded to our next destination. Today is island hopping day!! =)
We rented four habal-habal (single motorcycle) and from Bunsoran, Ferrol to Looc we were cruising around Tablas, Romblon. ?Everyone was happy that day! We paid P300/pax for the roundtrip ride. Our guide and contact person for the tour was Jun - (0906-181-2627)
We rented a boat for P6,000 for our island hopping adventure. The owner of the boat is Mang Nonobi (0935-912-1619). After 1.5 hours of boat ride, we arrived at our destination - Carabao Island!
Carabao Island is one of the best islands that I have seen in the Philippines.
Well, you know what we mean.?

We walked up to the end of the cove and wandered around not minding of the time.
The place was simply beyond our expectations! And our smiles were written all over our faces...We were having a good time! Probably, one of the best times of our lives!

| from Joyce Recampo We attempted to have jumpshots at the cove and this was the only one better after so many takes that was near to perfection. |

| Falls No. 1 I will never forget this trek to the falls! |
Only Nikko, Lester and I decided to go to the second falls. From the first falls to second falls, it took us 20 minutes to reach the second falls. And the trail was rugged and slippery. ?In fact, I lost my footing and everything (including my cameras and phones) got wet!

Carabao Island is one of the best islands that I have seen in the Philippines.
We were told that Boracay was just 45 minutes away from Carabao Island and we could not simply refuse the temptation. And we also decided to go to Boracay. We paid an additional of P1,500 for the sidetrip.
It was my fourth time to see Boracay. But the beauty of the island still dazzled me. After cruising in Boracay for 20 minutes. We decided to go back to Looc. Along the way, we were playing our favorite game. And as always, Lester was the usual winner! Hooray for Lester!
Around 5 pm, we boarded the Montenegro ship back to Batangas Port. We were again all smiles while we were boarding the ship...
It's Really More Fun in Tablas, Romblon!
