He  refused to discuss Woods' private life but said in Saturday's New Zealand Herald that Woods had confided in him and that he should cancel the villas he had booked next season.

He  says "that's what friends are for" and "you support them through good and bad. It's like marriage, really."  Well perhaps that was a bad analogy.

He  returned home this week after Woods withdrew from the Chevron World Challenge in California, the invitation tournament he annually hosts.  This was obviously a bust.

Williams, who has caddied for Woods for 10 years, says he expects to carry the player's bag in February at the Buick International tournament in Torrey Pines, San Diego once the swelling has gone down.

San Diego police are still trying to find the suspect in what they’re calling the “This Ain’t No Joke” robbery series: A Cold Stone Creamery, one Pinkberry and one TF Yogurt robbed within 90 minutes Sunday.

Scientists who have devoted their research (and sadly, their lives) to these burning questions are converging on Harvard University for the 2009 Ig Nobel Prizes, an annual tongue-in-cheek tribute to studies that “cannot or should not be reproduced”.

Past winners of the illustrious award, include:

--Dr. Francis Fesmire, for a paper he wrote called “Termination of Intractable Hiccups with Digital Rectal Massage”.

--Ellen Kleist and Harold Moi, for the cautionary medical report “Transmission of Gonorrhea Through an Inflatable Doll”.

--Three doctors at a Navy hospital in San Diego, for research into “Acute Management of the Zipper-Entrapped Penis”.

By all accounts, the 2009 Ig Nobels are shaping up to be a fierce competition, with numerous projects worthy of taking home the top prize.

Among the favorites to win:

--Jon Gosselin, for a paper he wrote called “Marrying a Bitch Results in Birth of 8 Kids”. 

--Kanye West, for his research into “The Boundless Limits of the Celebrity Ego”.

--Thirty-seven doctors, for their study entitled “How in the Hell is Amy Winehouse Still Alive?”
