Tiger Woods publicly apologized for his sex scandal Friday, but the star golfer left unclear when he would return to the sport.
In his first public appearance since the November car accident that touched off the scandal, Mr. Woods defiantly denied rumors that his wife might have hit him, and he implored the media to leave his family alone. He also acknowledged that he has been receiving in-patient therapy for his issues.
The end has finally dawned, and GulfRun 5 at the Bahrain International Circuit was over. I think everyone who participated or went to the event enjoyed it, as there was all out safe action and surprises down the way. Last night was the closing ceremony in Lenotre, and GulfRun with their sponsors, handed out the timings of all the drivers and events and their awards.

Yesterday was the third and final day of the GulfRun. The whole day was drag racing only. The disappointing thing is that not all the cars participated in the event, but it was still a lot of un. Took some cool pictures.
All good things must come to an end. Thank you GulfRun you were wonderful.
T.Pain took me for a 5 min drive in the Caterham today here at the Bahrain GP Circuit. The car is amazing in cornering and has great acceleration, I really loved it.
Today was a really good day, the weather was a bit hot but very pleasant in the shade. All drivers participated in the full track, and also we saw some compete in the drifting competition that somehow transformed into a doughnut competition.
I also got to jump in a BMW M5 (above) and a Caterham (below) and be driven around the track.
Tomorrow, Day 3:
The drag race and the conclusion of the GulfRun 5 event. Practice should start by 9:30AM and then the elimination rounds. Should be fun.
Today was the first day in the Gulf Run 5 event, there was a very good turn up. we saw a lot of people that we knew there. we also saw a lot of bloggers.
We saw a lot of beautiful and exotic cars there as expected.
This was just the first day, and I took almost 400+ pictures, will filter and upload them when I get back.
Tomorrow: Day 2
All cars will have a go at the full track tomorrow. We might also see some drag racing too.
“only players that are natural-born United State citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league.”
“Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?”
The above statements are a couple of the ridiculous comments Don “Moose” Lewis, a former wrestling promoter, has been quoting as saying when marketing his new league. He refers to how “color” has made it more of “street ball” and that basketball leagues (NBA) have lost their fundamentals.

Bader Al-Mutawa at Malaga F.C. training session during his trial period.
Thanks Nasser
UPDATE:
It looks like Malaga FC has requested from Al-Qadsiya FC to extend Bader Al-Mutawa’s trial period (from 1 week to 10 days) after doing very well in his first trial session. Best of luck to him.
