On the Circuit

For years we’ve been telling lovely cable PR hand Portia Badham she should be in movies. She’s taken our advice and can be seen in print ads for Lipitor and TV ads for Raymour & Flanigan Furniture in the Philly, NY/NJ/CT metro area and upstate NY and western PA. She’ll be handling arrangements for the Namic 25th Thurs night in NYC. — Rainbow yesterday began running Cable Positive’s new ‘Weapons of Mass Instruction’ PSA across all its networks. — A tradition at WICT So CA continues; those attending Fri’s OC Mentoring Tea at The Balboa Club will receive elegant gift bags loaded with gourmet teas, coffee and other goods. — Cable Positive forged a partnership with the Mother’s Programmes, an effort that trains mothers in S Africa living with HIV/AIDS in income-generating skills, offering them hope for a future in which the disease will no longer be a death sentence for S African women. With a tax-deductible holiday contribution to CP, you or your company will receive a hand-made item from the Mothers’ Programmes for every $25 increment of your contribution.
