...eventually find evidence that Woods hasn't been as up-front as he should have been - that he might have been under the influence of painkillers after last year's knee surgery, or that he and his Swedish model wife (who told police she smashed the SUV's rear window with a golf club to help extract her injured husband) were having a domestic argument heated enough to contribute to the accident - Woods' reticence, or lying, will come crashing down on his credibility much harder than it would on Joe Schmo.

But among Ardipithecus, says Lovejoy, males may have abandoned such competition, opting instead to pair-bond with females and stay together in order to rear their offspring (though not necessarily monogamously or for life).
