| Pakistan offers reward for Benazir Bhutto killing
People are requested to extend help in the arrest of the perpetrators of this terrible incident," Punjab province's interior ministry said in the newspaper notice. Rawalpindi is in Punjab. It offered a reward of 10 million rupees ($A188,000) for information leading to their identification. The government has not said how many attackers it believes were involved but has blamed an al-Qaeda-linked militant based on the Afghan border, Baitullah Mehsud. But many Pakistanis believe others from among Ms Bhutto's old enemies, perhaps from within the powerful security agencies, were involved. A spokesman for Mehsud denied involvement. Apart from the question of who was behind the attack, controversy has been raging over the exact cause of Ms Bhutto's death.
And now, another priceless pep talk for Peyton Manning:
"Throw another tipped pass that was intercepted in the red zone? Too bad. Here's what you need to do: Work on your accuracy. Maybe watch a game tape of Tom Brady for some tips. That guy went 26-for-28. He's awesome. Plus, watching him is easy on the eyes. Total dreamboat." And now, another priceless pep talk for Peyton Manning: "So I hear you're upset about losing at home in the divisional playoffs. Worried people are going to call you a choker again? Don't be. You played well. You just had a few bad breaks. And you were up against a buzz saw. That Billy Volek has never lost in the playoffs. He's a dynamo." And now, another priceless pep talk for Peyton Manning: "Worried that your coach might be retiring? Understandable. You've had success together.
McGinn takes 67's loss sitting down
Whether Brian Kilrea benched Jamie McGinn yesterday to get a rise out of the 67's captain or his teammates, it still couldn't prevent Ottawa from falling to the lowly Kingston Frontenacs. If the move did make one thing obvious that wasn't before the game, it's that things are definitely not rosy around the Ontario Hockey League team these days. "Killer decided to sit me down. We didn't see eye to eye, so he just gave me a rest for the rest of the game," a downcast McGinn said after he watched much of the third period from the bench as the 67's (22-22-2-2) slumped to their fifth straight Ontario Hockey League defeat, a 5-3 loss before 7,906 at the Civic Centre. .
Surgeon at loss after West's death

Army captures key area from Tamil Tigers
Security forces smashed five bunkers of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) during heavy rains in the confrontation in which six troops were wounded, the nation's defence ministry said. There was no immediate comment from the Tigers. The claim of more rebel casualties brings the number of Tamil fighters killed since December 1 to at least 371, according to the defence ministry. This compares to a tiny handful of government troops reported dead. Both sides are known for making sharply differing claims about casualties suffered by the other, and the independent verification of casualty claims is rarely possible with the press barred from front line and rebel-held areas. Tens of thousands of people have died on both sides since the LTTE launched its armed struggle for a Tamil homeland in the majority Sinhalese nation in 1972.
Divisional round Rundown
Thanks to his pulverizing tackle on Chris Henry in Week 17, friends who didn't notice his contributions to such poorly publicized events as Super Bowl XLI could download Reid and watch him loosen Henry's fillings again and again.
