News 12 at 6 o'clock / Saturday, April 20, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Deputy J.D. Paugh lost his life back in 2011 after being shot and killed while stopping to help a car he saw on the side of the interstate. This is the second year friends and family have come together to honor him.
Over 300 bikes came along for the 30-mile ride, and his family told News 12 they are happy the community is still keeping Paugh in mind.
"I think it's wonderful. It makes me so proud," said Anita Paugh, mother of Deputy Paugh.
Deputy Paugh may have lost his life, but his mother says he's not forgotten.
"Oh, I think about him every day. I think of the things we used to do. How much I love him, how much I miss him," she said.
His mother isn't the only one who hasn't forgotten him. Over 350 bikers also think about Paugh and that's why they came out to ride on Saturday.
"It's amazing. It doesn't surprise me," said one rider.
Bikers began registering at 10 a.m. Saturday. Hundreds of bikes lined up, but one bike took the spotlight.
Saturday was the first time Paugh's bike had been ridden since he passed away, but what made it special was the person who was riding it. Eric Groothand, Paugh's stepbrother, rode the bike Saturday afternoon.
"I asked Bobby, his brother, if we could use his bike in the ride, and he thought it was a good idea," Groothand said.
Paugh's brother was not the only who thought it was a good idea.
Organizers also liked the plan and had a message for Groothand.
"Well then, you're riding up front, you're leading the ride. No better symbol of J.D. than having him straight up front," Groothand said.
So, as the crowds of bikes were getting ready to hit the road, Paugh's mother said she's sure he was watching.
"Oh, I think he'd love it. He'd be so proud," she said.
And his community is extremely proud of him, too.
Last year, the ride collected $ 25,000 for The Deputy J.D. Paugh Memorial Fund. All proceeds go to helping law enforcement officers in the area.
If you couldn't make it to Saturday's ride, join the bikers on Monday nights. They meet at Crazy Turks for a bike night that was started by Deputy Paugh.

Guns Over Skis: Shane Dorian Interview
If you asked the top big wave guys in the world who was at the head of the pack, odds are Shane Dorian would get the nod. There are people who are crazier, and that probably train harder, but when it comes to pushing the limits of what's possible in big surf, Dorian is setting the bar. He's gotten barreled at Mavs his first session there (and nearly drowned the next day), and holds the record for biggest wave paddled in to for his 57-foot bomb from his first time paddling Peahi in March of 2011. Here's an excerpt of our conversation for the "Guns Over Skis" paddle in feature from the May issue of the magazine.—Casey Koteen
TransWorld SURF: Why do you think people are paddling into much bigger waves in the last four or five years?
Shane Dorian: We have tow surfing to thank for a bit of it. There was quite a bit of time where we'd look for the biggest waves, whether it was at Mavs, Jaws, Cortes Bank or wherever. And almost always there was no one paddling on those days. We got used to the size and we took a lot of wipeouts. Knowing you could fall and wipeout on waves that size helped give us more confidence to go back and paddle some of those waves.
Also, I think we got our jollies out, a bit. There's always going to be a place for tow surfing, it's super legit and guys do amazing things tow surfing. But there's some days where'd I'd much rather paddle surf. When there's a big swell on the map these days, I'm not always looking for the biggest waves on that swell, I'm more looking for someplace that's going to be the best place to paddle, that's what does it for me now.
So are you not going to tow anymore?
No, I will. I love to get towed into waves at Teahupoo when it's too big to paddle. That wave is incredibly difficult to ride, even tow surfing, it's very technical and challenging. There are certain waves that are good for tow surfing and not that great for paddle surfing.
These last few swells at Peahi have been pretty big, but not really big for Jaws. They've looked big because guys have been paddling, but they're not even close to the really big swells that can hit there. So it's going to be interesting to see when we get a really big swell. Normally Jaws is such an insane wave for tow surfing when it's huge. It's fine to go out there on a 15 or 20-foot day and catch a set, but on a day when there's 60 or 70 foot faces coming in, that's something that's totally different when you're paddle surfing.
So, I haven't got rid of my tow boards or anything, but if I can, I'd rather paddle it.
March of 2011 was your first time ever paddle surfing Peahi. What was the most surprising thing about paddling out there?
I was surprised that it was as doable as it was. I anticipated it being nearly impossible, because I'd tow surfed out there quite a bit and it's so bumpy, and I thought it'd be too bumpy to paddle it.
I was surprised that I felt pretty comfortable out there right away. It was scary though, for sure, and I was nervous. We got cleaned up pretty bad a few times. When you're towing and a big set comes you just get up and motor out of the way. But paddle surfing you're a sitting duck, if the wave breaks farther out then you get smoked.
Your wave was a turning point out there, not just that you pulled into it, which was crazy, but for the size of it, too. Did you know it was going to be that big while you were paddling for it?
No, I had no idea. The first wave I caught that day looked about the same size to me. I didn't really realize that wave was any bigger than my first wave. But when I saw the photos later I was kind of blown away. It looks big, but it also looks so perfect and hollow, and there's no one else in the frame and everything. It was just such a unique wave, normally when you see photos of Mavs or Waimea there are 20 or more guys in the frame, and that photo really stands out because it's just me, and it's all blue and perfect.
We've talked about this wave before, and you'd said you had to pull in, you had no choice. Did you realize that as you were lining it up?
Yeah, I knew it was either straighten out or pull in. That wave had a lot more West in it, which makes it break faster. I wasn't on the shoulder and there was a lot of wall in front of me, and it was jacking and doubling up, too. So I knew right off the bat I'd have to straighten out or pull in. As I was going down the face it looked like it was going to open up, and not crumble. So I thought, 'Well, I can either straighten out and get pounded, or pull in and get pounded.' So I went for it and pulled in.
That was a stand out wave of my whole life. When I look at that photo it all comes back.

- AP sources: Boehner, top GOP to vote for deal
- Lawmakers want Colorado national parks reopened
- Cruz won't delay vote on bipartisan budget deal
The bipartisan compromise on Wednesday to avoid a financial default and end a 16-day partial government shutdown cast a spotlight on Republican Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah, who had precipitated the crises with their demand that President Barack Obama gut his 3-year-old health care law.
Other Republicans who repeatedly had warned the two about their quixotic move took little pleasure in saying "I-told-you-so." After they failed to block the biggest expansion of the health care law, the shutdown and near default left the GOP reeling.
"He's the one who got us into this. He had no strategy. And it caused us to waste 16 days and get ourselves killed in the polls," Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., said of Cruz. "All for a guy who was fraudulent from the start."
With a heavy dose of gallows humor, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Republicans' poll "numbers have gone down, Obamacare's somehow mysteriously have gone up. And other than that, this has been great."
Cruz, a freshman who engaged in a 21-hour talkathon and egged on House Republicans for the fight, was unapologetic and critical of his GOP Senate colleagues.
"Imagine a different world," Cruz said in a Senate speech. "If all 46 Senate Republicans had stood together and said, we are united against the train wreck that is Obamacare."
In fact, all Senate Republicans oppose the law; what they had challenged was the two senators' tactics.
Lee offered no regrets, vowing to continue the fight to repeal the health care law. "This is not over," he said in a Senate speech.
Their defiance has been wildly cheered by outside conservative groups that have made money on the months-long dispute and the far right flank that hails Cruz and Lee for what they call a principled, courageous stand.
Cruz, a potential presidential candidate in 2016, has seized the headlines and collected nearly $800,000 for his political action committee in the past three months.
"I think Ted Cruz and Mike Lee did exactly the job that those of us who helped them get elected" wanted them to do, said Drew Ryun of the Madison Project, one of the first conservative organizations to back Cruz last year in his long-shot Senate bid.
Among tea party Republicans, Cruz's popularity has climbed, from a 47 percent favorability rating in July to 74 percent, according to a Pew Research Center poll released Wednesday. Non-tea party Republicans see him in a less favorable light, with his unfavorable numbers up to 31 percent.
To Senate Republicans, Cruz and Lee are near pariahs, publicly slammed for a tactic that has taken a heavy toll on the GOP's standing and privately criticized for helping outside groups targeting Republican incumbents before next year's congressional elections.
The latest Washington Post-ABC News poll showed three-quarters of Americans disapproving of the way congressional Republicans were handling the budget.
"What did I say three weeks ago, what did I say a month ago, it was a fool's errand," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., waving a copy of the latest poll for reporters clustered in the Senate basement earlier this week. "I knew that it was going to be a disaster and it is a disaster."
Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a fierce opponent of the health care law, called the effort to unravel the law a "fantasy."
Compromise has never been part of the vocabulary for Lee, who was elected in 2010, and Cruz, a member of the Senate for some 10 months. The two have been relegated to the sidelines during the Senate negotiations. Neither was part of a bipartisan group that jump-started talks. The two even skipped Tuesday's weekly closed-door Republican luncheon.
Further riling the GOP is the reality that shutdown and the default threat have overshadowed the problem-plagued rollout of the health care markets on Oct. 1 despite Republican efforts to highlight the programs' woes.
In private, Republicans have been dismissive and confrontational with Cruz, according to lawmakers and congressional aides.
At one meeting, Cruz presented his own poll numbers and argued that Republicans weren't suffering despite the overwhelming evidence suggesting they were, prompting eye-rolling from his colleagues.
At a subsequent meeting, Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., asked whether Cruz would disavow efforts by the Senate Conservatives Fund, a group founded by former South Carolina Republican Sen. Jim DeMint that has been running ads in states with GOP incumbents, challenging them to support the "defund Obamacare" quest.
McConnell, who faces similar ads in his state as he seeks a sixth term next year, joined with Ayotte in questioning Cruz, who was noncommittal.
More recently, the Texas senator insisted that Senate Republicans could force a vote on a House-passed bill to ease the pain of the shutdown for military veterans, seemingly unaware of Senate rules. He didn't give a convincing explanation how that could be done, considering that the Republican Senate minority has no power to set the agenda. Cruz appeared to be resting his hopes on a strategic stumble by Reid, a 26-year Senate veteran.
Yet for all the internal back-biting, Cruz stands as the Teflon tea partyer, winning over conservatives.
At the Values Voter Summit this past weekend, an annual gathering of social conservatives and evangelicals, participants echoed Cruz and Lee's determination not to back down.
Lee brought activists to their feet when he said he was still working with Cruz to strip money from the law.
"We make no apologies. We stand with you," Lee said, drawing loud applause.
In imploring conservatives to remain vigilant, Cruz quoted the 1995 film "The Usual Suspects," and Keyser Soze's assessment that the "the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the world he didn't exist." Cruz' variation: "the greatest trick the left has ever played is to convince conservatives we cannot win."
Cruz won the organization's straw poll on Saturday with 42 percent, well ahead of former presidential candidate Rick Santorum and Dr. Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon.
Dennis Bussey of Richmond, Va., said many conservatives are searching for a new standard-bearer and he was impressed by Cruz's reception.
"We're looking for someone—maybe not a hero but maybe we do need a hero," he said.

As The Smoke Began To Clear
Reflections on Islam in America after September 11
Last September 11, my initial thoughts were not so easy to separate from the tangle of disbelief and stunned reactions I shared with people who were experiencing things firsthand in New York and Washington. Like the landscape itself, thinking had to wait for the smoke to clear. When that began to happen, my mind started to move in several directions. The very idea of being an American Muslim, after Muslims had bombed American landmarks and killed civilians from over 80 countries, opened my thinking to several points of view.
As an American, I was horrified by the level of violence and by the coldness of its execution, too. Like many people, I felt angry. Day by day, I also witnessed unparalleled heroics, performed without an ounce of rhetoric, in the service of other human beings. In the face of these heroics I felt proud to be living where I do.
As a Muslim, I had other, different, feelings. The actions of the perpetrators appalled me, and especially their claim to be acting in Islam's name. Well before their actual identities emerged, many Muslims knew who these people were: political desperadoes wrapped in the flag of a peaceful faith. It wasn't difficult to disavow them, and the principal Muslim advocacy groups all weighed in within hours against the perpetrators and on the side of the victims and democracy.
But other American Muslims refused to believe that people who call themselves Muslims could have done this. Why? Was it the classic reluctance of a persecuted group to accept the worst about any of its members? Or was the penchant for conspiracy theories and the distrust of American government so pronounced among some Muslims that the simplest claims of the FBI were considered lies? I've heard both these explanations many times. Here is a third: that if Muslims admitted that other Muslims had committed such atrocities, then all Muslims would be tarred with the brush of guilt. I tend to favor this third explanation, because nothing fuels denial quite like fear, and because in America these days guilt by association is as common as the Lincoln penny.
And that led to my third set of feelings, as an American who has become a Muslim. Within a few days I began to feel the old, familiar disgust that is my usual response to the antics of many white Americans when given half a chance to hate somebody. I use the word 'white' intentionally here, for most Muslims in America are colored. In my experience, American Islamaphobia is largely racial, partly political, and only at the margins theological.

Helloh, and today's subject might one day be a good income generating scheme for opportunists…. sorry entrepreneurs!.
A broadcaster recently said that depression is often overlooked in Africa, and some time ago, when the World Health Organisation said this could have consequences, an expert speaking of an epidemic, was almost pleadingly asked by a reporter "could it even become a pandemic"?.
I thought this eventually might be a good example of the self fulfilling prophecy, giving the west a chance once again to manipulate developing nations. Just think of the army of self styled foreign 'specialists', 'consultants', and assorted hangers on ready to depart for the continent if it ever really got underway.
Along with many other mental health problems that are grossly under funded and neglected in third world countries, depression can be a serious one, but in the west, it's the spin off industry from it that also causes harm.
The mega powerful advertising companies, ready to pounce on any vulnerable chink in the human armour, have succeeded in making many people chronic worriers, dependant on expensive vitamins and anti-depressants, depleting their normal coping mechanisms in the process.
Are you feeling a little low on Monday morning because your fun weekend is over……no you're not, you're depressed…reach for the pills!
It seems in most places with capitalist economies, every aspect of the human condition, must be labelled and exaggerated, in order to create massive marketing opportunities.
In some of them, women who've convinced their doctors they're depressed because of some perceived fault in their looks have received thousands of pounds worth of cosmetic surgery at tax payers expense. Cultivated depression, a modern day ailment aided by powerful commercial interests.
In most parts of Africa though, people suffer genuine hardships, and lives beset by multiple disasters, but strength and stoicism enables them to manage.
……..but depression could still be fostered if there's enough profit in doing so. There must be millions of happy people living on the African continent, where the rich nations interfere, who can be made miserable to benefit the multinational drug companies, and surely Tanzania wouldn't be left out!.
Anyway, though 'fighting corruption', and 'poverty reduction', are still the twin saviours for enterprising locals to earn a bit of cash…as I said at the beginning, those with long term vision could start preparing their N.G.O's now to access future donor funds……be optimistic.…plan for a pandemic!.
Well I had fun with that piece, but back to doom laden news to depress us. A man I like very much, Controller and Auditor General Ludovick Utouh has the job of delivering much of it, as he did recently when revealing at least 96 per cent of forest harvesting here is conducted illegally.
"There are no effective controls in the forestry sector…..and legal tree cutting accounts for only 4 % ", he warned. A chilling statistic if you care about such important issues, but does the government, or the governed…….apart from another way of accessing donor money for environmental N.G.O's.
From December 2003, the government cancelled licences to harvest timber in Rufiji. But the following year, all the way from Kibiti to Rufiji, I saw huge trees piled by the road side, and large lorries transporting vast cargos of logs. Many were stuck in the sand as the loads were so heavy.
It later came out, that corrupt forest officers in Coast Region had colluded with businessmen to fell endangered tree species. The scale of which later led to a ban on their exports.
There's a difference between logging, and tree cutting, but both are carelessly abused here. I doubt if the number of trees being felled for charcoal making corresponds with those being planted, but even if they did, chances are they mightn't survive, as weather conditions become harsher, and rain fall decreases due to levels of de-forestation. A perpetuating destructive cycle.
Over the decades, the benefits to the nation of promoting an alternative energy source for cooking would have been immense, had those in a position to effect the change done so. But perhaps there was little scope for brokering 'sweeteners', and no honey pot to generate their interest!.
The Prime Ministers office initiated National Tree Planting Day in 2001. And in 2004, whilst officiating, the then Minister Zakia Meghi, reminded people of the importance of restoring vegetation, but admitted that only 60,000 hectares of forest were replacing the 91,000 lost yearly, and that the country was slowly turning into a desert. And eight years later in 20l2……?!.
Cutting down any tree, has an immediate effect. The less shade, the hotter everywhere b ecomes, and you don't need much brain to realise it.
In February l998, I tried to stop the last old tree near the central post office being felled, because as the zonal Posts Corporation manageress told me, the area was going to be a car park, and the contractors requested it. I've never forgiven them their stupidity, as the car park could have greatly benefited from the shade provided, as well as from its beauty.
It seems that some people can cut down a tree that's taken decades to mature, with as little regret as squashing a fly. And some builders and contractors are so environmentally uncouth, they'll blitz anything that grows for no reason.
Civil servant 'watch dogs' do little to retard this, and no doubt when there's a photo opportunity attend tree planting celebrations. C.C.M. did this in places like Kariakoo at one time, but without follow up watering, the seedlings died. Perhaps the exercise itself was sufficient for propaganda purposes.
With attitudes like this, we can hardly be surprised therefore, if a large majority of the populace, view a tree only as a means to cooking a meal!

- Title
- I, journalist: coping with and crafting media information in the 21st century
- Author(s)
- Duffield, Lee; Cokley, John
- Abstract
- I, Journalist invites journalists, and people wanting to enter the journalistic field, to take a hard look at the place occupied by their line of work in the 21st century. It views journalism as a kind of knowledge and skill which is very central to surviving and prospering in the new economy - an economy built increasingly on communication and creativity. It is even suggested that everybody could do well to become a journalist, at least to some extent. Not that the path will be easy and practitioners have to make some big adjustments as they face the new demands of emerging communication technology and expectations in society. This book moves away from the tradition of journalism texts focused on writing, ethics and media production, to look at mass media and society, strictly as observed from journalists' own informed perspective.

Seeking a lab
I'm working on a startup to develop a new pharmaceutical drug, and I need a lab to help with some of the development and testing. I figure the Thinkgene community might be able to help me out. I'm going to be a little sparse on details in the post, but I can give more information to those who ask.
I'm essentially looking for a lab that can perform an assay to screen a range of compounds for their effectiveness at activating a g-protein coupled receptor, preferably a cell based assay that uses cultured cells.
I have a lab that will generate the compounds that I'm interested in testing, but I need a lab to measure their ability to activate various receptors in neurons. Simple assays that just measure the Kd for the compounds and these particular receptors tend to underestimate the actual effectiveness in the studies I've read, so I would prefer an assay that measures something downstream of the receptor; hence why I think a cell based assay would be best. I have a few ideas of different approaches to do this, but it would be complicated by the fact that not much seems to be known about the downstream pathway of these receptors.
If a cell based assay is infeasible or unpractical, simply measuring the Kd would probably be sufficient (I have a protocol for this).
Eventually I would need a lab that can do animal studies with mice to test the compounds after the initial screening. So it would be great if the lab has experience with animal testing.
If anyone has lab or knows someone with a lab that would be capable and willing to help with these tests, please either post a comment with your contact information or email me at [email protected]

- "We have recieved intel that they're keeping Mr. K at the local Agency station. The Agency is stepping up their questioning because of your moronic antics down at the coroner's office. We need to get him out of there before he blabs."
- ― Steve Haines
Three's Company[1] is a mission in Grand Theft Auto V, given by FIB agent Steve Haines to protagonists Michael De Santa, Trevor Philips and Franklin Clinton.
The mission begins with Michael De Santa, Trevor Philips and Franklin Clinton being summoned by the corrupt FIB agent, Steve Haines. Haines forces Michael and his crew to perform an abduction against the IAA, another government force, in order to boost the funding for the FIB. Michael refuses, until Haines gives him the guarantee that their work together will come to a close (Which, eventually, is false.)
Michael De Santa is the abductor, who raids the IAA Headquarters via grappel.
Trevor Philips is tasked with flying the Frogger helicopter, considering his Flying experience.
Franklin Clinton is the designated sniper, who will provide to be sniper support for Michael when he is inside the IAA Headquarters.
When the 3 protagonists arrive at the IAA HQ (in-game rendition of the CIA), Franklin is already perched with a Sniper Rifle on top of a nearby building, in case things get violent. As Trevor hovers overhead, Michael rappels down the building to the 36th floor to extract the target. On his way the player can observe offices full of people, giving a real-life feeling. Michael identifies the target, breaks the glass and catches the man, while the bodyguards are pointing guns at him. The player then switches to Franklin, who covers Michael from across the street by sniping some of the bodyguards, and then has the choice to switch back to play as Michael as he shoots the remaining guards. Trevor then brings Michael and the captured man back up to the helicopter, as many more helicopters show up. Franklin kills the pilot in the chopper going after him while Michael shoots down the other helicopters with an assault rifle, as Trevor flies around them. They all arrive at the FIB helipad and the mission concludes.
Gold Medal Requirements
- Mission time: Complete within 07:30.
- Accuracy: Finish with a shooting accuracy of at least 60%.
- Headshots: Kill 10 enemies with headshots.
- In GameInformer's demo review, it was mentioned that the target would be injured due to one of the agents smashing a torch on his finger, causing his finger to bleed; However in the Actual game, his hands are unharmed when Michael picks the target up. This is partially true, however; the IAA interrogator does hit the target's hands with a torch (a flashlight), but it seems to have no serious or lasting effect on his hands.
- Originally, this mission was going to be called "The Extraction".
- The IGN's demo review mentions that this would be the first mission in which all 3 protagonists would be available to play as.
- Karen appears in this mission as the lead interrogator who tortures the target. She cannot be killed, however, since she escapes the room before the player could regain control as Michael or Franklin.
- This also confirms the the Uniter Liberty Paper is a front for the IAA, and both Karen and the ULP contact are working for them.
- The title could be a reference to a TV show, which has the same exact name as the mission.
- The title could also be a reference to Three's a Crowd, the mission that Michelle/Karen (the lead interrogator in this mission) is introduced in GTA IV.
- The building's rooftop that Franklin covers Michael can be seen. The roof's actually a small helipad.

Noel Murray from AV Club has spoken at length to Johnny Marr. The interview is online - http://www.avclub.com/articles/johnn...the-smi,73276/
...AVC: Theres a documentary about The Clash, made when Joe Strummer was alive, in which he talks about all the little things that led to the breakup of The Clash, and how he wishes he could go back to that person he was in his 20s and say, None of this matters. The addictions dont matter. The personality conflicts dont matter. You are in one of the greatest bands of all time. Dont fuck it up. Do have a similar feeling about the end of The Smiths? Whats your take on how and why everything fell apart?
JM: Well, I dont think anything was fucked up. I dont have that kind of perspective at all. I think its sad that four guys who were so tight went through such bitterness, that was encouraged by the behavior of some members of the band. Obviously, it was very emotional. The band was incredibly dramatic, and Im philosophical about that because I think without that dramatic element, some of the music wouldnt sound the way it does. Not all, but some. I think the only regrettable thing is that as adults, only Andy and myself get together and give each other a hug and make fun of each other and like seeing each other. To be honest, its unfortunate that The Smiths dont have the relationship where they can sit around and even get complaints out, or philosophize. Thats unfortunate for four adults who are always going to have a tie to each other. And unfortunately lots of waters gone under the bridge, you know? But I can only speak for myself, and say that I dont have any negative thoughts about the times back then or the times now, or the people in it. I just personally feel a sense of pride, and an incredible degree of luck. All I want to say about that, on behalf of the other three members of the group, is that we worked very, very hard and we really, really cared...

Rugly League Sponsorship Announcements
Posted 08 January 2013 - 07:58 AM
I would have thought that 3 were pretty obvious (world cup, Super League and Challenge Cup). Any ideas what the other 2 may be? Is the Championship sponsorship up for renewal??? Or will it be 3 different World Cup sponsors or, knowing the RFL, will it be 5 different companies sponsoring those lorry trailers you see in farmers fields up and down the motorways.
Hopefully some good news on the horizon.

Surely that belongs on the cross code page?

Overall though it will be good to hear a few sponsors announced, especially for the World Cup. It will definitely help build some more confidence in the tournament.

I suspect that with the season drawing close there will be a steady stream of announcements, what's the point of generating a bit of interest in close season and then having a gap of two months before anything happens, a steady stream of announcements leading up to the start of the season makes far more sense.
What would you consider to be good deals?
Posted 09 January 2013 - 03:11 AM
The RFL already have some decent names in Valvoline, Gillette and Heinz in their portfolio who you hope can be convinced to step up and be World Cup sponsors.

Have you recently walked 500 miles ? Were you advised to walk 500 more ? Did you fall down at someone's door ?

Sky obviously don't know what they're doing. Murdoch should be sacked for this!
Seems that Sky haven't managed to secure a sponsor for their SL coverage yet.....

Interesting stats: Sponsor branding reaching an estimated 4.8m Individuals, 1.7m of which are Abc1 Men.
Sky obviously don't know what they're doing. Murdoch should be sacked for this!
Predictions for the future -
Crusaders RL to get a franchise for 2012 onwards -WRONG
Widnes Vikings also to get a franchise - RIGHT
Crusaders RL to do the double over Widnes and finish five places ahead of them -WRONG
Widnes Vikings NOT to dominate rugby league in years to come! STILL TO COME
I promise to pay �10 to the charity of Bomb Jacks choice if Widnes Millionaires finish above the battling underdogs Crusaders RL. I OWE A TENNER!

I think the SL sponsorship is an important one that needs sorting quickly. The CC has a bit of time before the comp properly starts (ie being shown on BBC). The RLWC doesn't need a title sponsor, personally I'd prefer a panel of sponsors, but I also wouldn't turn down a hefty sum of money from a major sponsor!
Only 3 weeks to the start of SL and still no news! Probably will be an announcement just before season starts. Also CC and RLWC have to get title sponsors. Let's hope there will shortly be some good news!

Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973) was an artistic virtuoso who co-founded Cubism, and produced an astounding 20,000 paintings, prints, drawings and sculptures during his brilliant 70-year career. Picasso's unparalleled body of work was so vast, and its phases so unique, that art historians have divided it into specific periods. A child prodigy, Picasso took advanced classes at the Royal Academy of Art in Barcelona when he was only 15. His revolutionary Cubist works, with their distorted shapes and fragmented forms, established art as a genre that does not need to literally represent reality. Zealously embracing every medium from primitive art to sketches to Surrealism, Picasso had an unrivaled influence upon 20th century art.
