...many of the U.S. pros do not. The ever helpful Monty explained, "We all come from more of a teamlike society than the Americans. They are brought up to be individuals, which isn't wrong of course. It's just the way they are." Duval can only counter with, "I don't see it as the be-all, end-all," and Woods has said of his Ryder experience, "I played in only one and didn't enjoy it at all." Small wonder. He won only one of his five matches at Valderrama...

A report that looked at two cities, Boston and Boise, Idaho, shows that the pesky six-legged parasites are increasingly resistant to permethrin, the active ingredient in Nix, a popular over-the-counter remedy. What to do? Doctors suggest that you try commercial preparations; if these fail, ask your physician for a prescription pesticide.

...fierce comb-through were enough to annihilate the bloodsucking pests and their eggs, but now those days of relative ease may be over. According to the results of a Harvard University study of 75 lice-infested children, some lice are no longer susceptible to over-the-counter medicines traditionally recommended by pediatricians. And so kids who come home with a case of head lice and are treated with the popular chemical return to school with their infestation and proceed to reinfect the whole class. And the cycle begins again...
