    Angry Tiger lashes out at porn link to wife - Yahoo! News

    Talk about bad journalism. This article is absolute rubbish. I was totally siding with Tiger until I got to the bottom of this article and they FINALLY mention that the article he is complaining about was supposed to clearly be sattire. I'm not mad at Tiger for taking them to task but I think Reuters should be a little bit less salacious and put the salient point near the top of their article, not bury the facts that actually help you understand until the very end.

    Quoted: A disgruntled Tiger Woods has lashed out at an Irish magazine for falsely linking his Swedish wife Elin, a former model, to pornographic websites.

    The Seattle Times: Sports: Woods takes playoff after Cink misses 8-foot putt to win

    I watched the end of the Bridgestone Invitational yesterday and got to see Tiger Woods come from behind, go into a playoff, and then win - again. He's playing the best golf I've ever seen him play. Even when his full swing is off a bit, as it was yesterday, he finds ways to win. Amazing!

    Quoted: Woods ran his total to 52 victories on the PGA Tour. He boosted his tour playoff record to 10-1, including 2-0 at Firestone. But Woods knew he was lucky just to get to extra holes.

    Quoted: This allowed [Tiger] Woods to get a head start on his current competitors, but what really made him great is how he practices. For starters, his routine is merciless. Rain or shine, Woods sets out. More importantly, he always makes sure his practice sessions revolve around learning by doing. He analyzes sequential snapshots of himself playing, relentlessly scrutinizes the elements of his swing, then drills these subtle alterations into his nervous system through thousands of repetitions. Of course, more practice leads to more new ideas, which leads to more practice. "Other golfers may outplay me from time to time," Woods wrote in his book, "but they'll never outwork me."

    Bamboo, I'm so in love with yoooo.

    The best of TH bamboo are Adapt Design, Bambu, Bamboosa and Henrybuilt.

    I've used Bambu's stuff, really nice, and really expensive. Bamboo dishes are also higher maintenance. James and I wanted to have all bamboo kitchenware (and furniture), and then we looked at the (outrageous) price tag, like $36.00 per bowl. So we thought we would get one thing per month, though that makes a really odd kitchenware set. We would have to hold a lottery for the nice bamboo dishes for dinner guests.
