How many times will the Olympic torch be extinguished by protesters during the torch relay? (while outside China only)
Settlement details:
To set the number of times only the incidents OUTSIDE the mainland China will be considered. Number will be counted only when the flame is extinguished by a protester itself - not by authorities. Torch relay will take place from April 2 (Almaty/Kazakhstan) until May 3 (Macau/Special Administrative Region).
As reported by a major mainstream news source. As for a second source, http://www.freetibet.org/ maybe considerated also.

"Chinese organizers finally gave up on the relay, canceling the last third of what China had hoped would be a joyous jog by torch-bearing VIPs past some of Paris' most famous landmarks."

Hubdub Category Manager
HD should arrange for a Category Editor to accompany the torch relay around the world (excluding China). First class airfare is necessary, four-star hotels, chauffeured car, modest clothing allowance in order to be appropriate in all cultures, full media and security credentials, generous per diem allowance, and of course, one of those .99 cent/pence plastic "counter/clickers".
The only "tricky" part is finding a Category Manager willing to go.
