...golf fans need to find a backup plan. Woods attracted many fans to the sport. Will they be content to totally abandon the game just because he's not on the fairway? Is it beyond the realm of possibility that these same Tiger fans, who have grown to appreciate the sport as well as the superstar, will seek out other players to pull for? A Phil Mickelson? A talented young American like Anthony Kim? Of course, no other player has the charisma or talent of Tiger. But while Woods is away, fans may rehearse a golf life without...
...clear what derailed that original strategy - it was a virtually identical scheme to the one used to transport the weapons used in a December 2005 attack on the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore - but Headley allegedly played a key role in Plan B. "In March 2008, Headley and his co-conspirators discussed potential landing sites for a team of attackers who would arrive by sea," according to a statement by the U.S. Attorney's office.

...just as decentralized. The FBI's investigation of him includes e-mails in which he expresses ongoing frustration with his LeT handlers and complains that they seem insufficiently interested in his goal of attacking a Danish newspaper that had printed cartoons he considered offensive to Islam - a plan that he refers to in code as "the Mickey Mouse project" or "the Northern project." Shortly after the Mumbai attacks, Headley allegedly planned a trip to Denmark. By the time he returned to Chicago in June 2009, he appeared anxious about the lack of progress. "What is the status with the Northern...
