From the Guardian's data blog, here are links to the data you'll need for office pools in 2013 (well, not the March madness one). Oscar winners? Look at the Golden Globe nominations.

There's more: Portuguese bond redemption and interest payments are due in September, so the column examines government debt compared to GDP. And that's not to mention the Booker Prize and the Nobel Peace Prize.
