FILE - In this Oct. 9, 2005 file photo, Tiger Woods tips his hat to the crowd before teeing off on the first hole during the final round of the American Express World Golf Championships at Harding Park in San Francisco. Rampant allegations of marital infidelity are turning Woods into more laughingstock than role model, and he must find a way to wrest his sinking reputation from the muck of tabloid headlines if he hopes to salvage his business empire and protect the corporate partners who invested in him.

Playing it where it lies: Following Tiger Woods' announcement that he was taking an indefinite break from professional golf after his admissions of infidelity, technology giant Accenture said it was breaking its sponsorship ties with Woods.

Already, several companies have expressed interest in signing Woods to new advertising deals, most notably GM's OnStar automatic accident response service.



  • Beware of Italians bearing gifts: President Barack Obama said he was “seriously angry” about a breach of security that allowed wannabe-socialites to crash a White House state dinner. Meanwhile, Italy's premier was bloodied in an attack when a man hurled a statuette at him.

    Our advice to the president: Cancel that exchange program with the Italian secret service.



  • We are amused: Buckingham Palace is denying speculative reports that Prince William, second in line to the throne, is being groomed as a “shadow king,” following reports that the queen is passing on more of her duties to her grandson.

    The British press may be exaggerating. Among the prince's new duties: programming Her Majesty's DVR, cleaning the palace gutters and taking the royal corgies for walkies.
