The Preservation Society of Newport County has trademarked 'Newport Mansions' and so prohibited any of the others that are not under their umbrella from using that description....

It's already withstood one court challenge...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Monster.com should sue Monster golf and be done with it.
They did sue Monster and settled out of court.
