rick fehr and comes down the engine gets it to sell it. he gets the goal. the final was 5-0. a full non contact practice at the berto center but here is no word on when he will be back in action. he is nursing a shoulderderrick rose was able to shoot but he is still not running, battling a stubborn groin injury. the bulls have been winning despite the loss of those two keys players and thats a credit to a deep roster and players who, on a game by game basis outhustle their opponents. >> we know what we need to do to win. we feel like if we can play good defense and get back in transition and when the rebound and contests, we usually have a pretty good shot of winning the game. l. marion barber announced his retirement. bears special teamer cory graham signed with the ravens today. dale sveum has named ryan dempster to start opening day against the nationals at wrigley field. matt garza gets game two and jeff samardzja was in line for game three until he was lit up by the rockies today. he gave up 7 runs on 10 hits in 4 innings of work, so we'll see. despite the bad outing by

we're set fehr i think for 2012. is looking for clouds, i think the one cloud is what happens in america after the election. what happens with the deficit and deficit reduction if there's a deadlock between the president and congress or between the republicans and the democrats. so we have to see how that shake outs. i think 2012 will be a similar year to 2011. >> okay. just speaking of the year ahead, also, you've made this great profit figure. what are you going to do with that kind of cash. is it time to pay down debt? is it time to look around? i know you have a strong organic growth figure. what would you do with that money? >> our debt levels, our target is somewhere between 1.5 to two times debt to -- we're at 1.7. we're in that right zone. our free cash flow is about a billion pounds. dividends cost us around 300 million pounds, acquisitions probably about 30 to 40 million pounds. there's surplus funds to look at share buybacks and we've looked to increasing our dividend payout ratio from 32% to 40% over the

trayvon martin was as much a victim of constructed fehrs from the culture of what black boys are likelyd lethal attack that night by george zimmerman. >> this case is bringing up lots of conversations around the country, "the l.a. times" reporting about a college student in pasadena shot by police, they believe that he was armed. but to you think that shining a spotlight specifically on trayvon martin will open up dialogue for the untold amount of trayvon martins that may exist around the country? >> i would hope so. in city of new orleans where i live, we're dealing with at least two very recent murders or killings of unarmed, young black men by new orleans police department officials. and so you know we're beginning to say, not just is that one trayvon martin but all of our trayvon martins. i think part of what makes it so horrendous in the case of martin, though, is that this -- zimmerman is not a police officer. as pauling as it is as those police officers in a position of not protecting and serving but taking the life of young men, the idea that just any person could, that just som
