Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, managed to board a Northwest Airlines flight to Detroit from Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport carrying explosives but failed to successfully detonate them. In a preliminary report, the Dutch government says his plan to blow up the Detroit-bound aircraft was professional but its execution was "amateurish." (AP)
