Callaway Golf Company Announces 2008 Third Quarter and Nine Month …
MarketWatch 
“Despite the unprecedented global economic
conditions and a strong 2007, we have delivered earnings growth of 5%
through the first nine months of 2008,”
commented George Fellows, President and CEO. “This
growth is due in part to our expanding accessories business and
increased sales of golf balls, as well as by sales in Japan, which
increased 37% for the first nine months of 2008 compared to 2007. In
addition, three years ago we started several initiatives focused on
improving the fundamentals of our Company, and those initiatives are
paying off. Our balance sheet is strong with no long-term debt and a
positive net cash balance, which is an enviable position in today’s
market. Working capital and operating expenses have been and will
continue to be tightly managed going forward. Our gross margin
improvement initiatives continue to deliver to our expectations of $50
to $60 million in savings over the past two years and are mitigating the
negative shift in product mix we are seeing due to the current economic
conditions.

Provo man suspected of beating sons with golf club
Salt Lake Tribune, United States 
The abuse was discovered when the man’s 9-year-old son complained of pain to his arm in class at Edgemont Elementary School, said Provo police Capt. Staff members noticed deep bruising on the boys’ arm, and the boy said his father had hit him 12 to 15 times with the staff of a golf club. The boy’s older brother, who is 11, had also been beaten with the club, though not as severely.
