    So when they have events in places like Singapore, Mexico, France, China, South Korea, and Japan are they going to force all those working there to learn the language too if they do not know it already?

              The LPGA is missing out on a potential sponsorship deal with Rosetta Stone.

                  The article did say they were losing sponsors but if they picked up the Rosetta Stone Tour, then they would be golden.

                    Yeah, but where are the pics?
                    From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.

                    For more than 20 years I have endeavored-indeed, I have struggled-along with a majority of this Court, to develop procedural & substantive rules that would lend more than the mere appearance of fairness to the death penalty endeavor.

                    I feel morally and intellectually obligated simply to concede that the death penalty experiment has failed.

                    The path the Court has chosen lessens us all. I dissent.

                        This was aimed directly at the South Koreans, of course. I went to an LGPA event last summer at Cherry Hills (where Arnold Palmer.. ah, never mind) and 6 of the top 10 finishers were S.K. Birdie Kim won. I think the LPGA peeps feel threatened.

                          No, just the players in the event.
