    Thick, sticky blobs of oil have blackened beaches in the central provinces of Thua Thien Hue and Quang Ngai, and authorities are investigating whether an offshore well could be to blame, said Nguyen Tran Manh, vice director of the national center for oil spill responses.

            I just got to wonder how some text like this gets released.(syntax?)

            Oil spills are going to happen, and when things like this do happen the old blame game comes into hand. I think it's just negligence.
