NORTH TUSTIN, CA, June 17, 2011 (Press-News.org) STX Golf, world-renowned as an industry pioneer in putter innovation, and for its patented Soft Face Insert Technology, announced today that their 2011 Club Championship Promotion officially begins the same week as the 111th US Open.
As the best golfers from around the world tee it up at Congressional to try and capture the coveted US Open Championship, golfers everywhere will be competing to win their own club championship. According to STX Director of Golf Steve Henneman, "To win a club championship is a real honor. It takes time, practice, and skill to be the best at any club. STX wants to reward these avid golfers by giving them the latest in putter technology, so we are offering them their choice of any STX Putter. We are confident that our putters will help these Champions take home more trophies."
STX Golf will be awarding one putter to every club champion at each STX account. The promotion will begin on the first day of the US Open - June 16th and will continue throughout the summer to allow time for each club championship to be decided. To enter into the 2011 STX Club Championship Promotion, simply fill out the Club Champion information sheet and fax it to 1-855-STX-PUTT. The Club Championship Promotion is available to every STX account. If a golf course is not a current STX account, they can still qualify by setting up an account with STX during the promotion period.
Testing shows STX Putters have almost twice the dwell time of putters with harder inserts and nearly three times the dwell time of metal faced putters. The difference is due to the high coefficient of friction (COF) that is chemically engineered into each STX insert. The high COF results in unequaled precision on the greens. STX inserts also provide the signature STX "Feel", which holds the ball on the face longer to impart topspin and improve the feel of the putter.
For a variety of responses and feel, STX Putters are available with black, red and green insert options. The black insert is the softest in the STX line. It delivers the highest friction and resilience rate, plus increased dwell time. Those characteristics are chemically formulated to get the ball rolling sooner and keep your putts on line. For a medium resiliency rate, the red insert offers an intermediate amount of dwell time for golfers that prefer a harder feel. And, for golfers who prefer the feel of a steel putter, the green insert provides a harder feel with less resilience
About STX:
STX is acknowledged as being the golf industry's foremost authority on insert face technology. Over a quarter century ago, the company introduced the first patented soft face insert, creating the "softest legal face in golf." Following this advancement, the company introduced the first USGA approved interchangeable face insert and removable weight system. Both these and other innovations have helped create the standards for putter design today.

Where have all the flowers gone?
2011-06-17
It's summer wildflower season in the Rocky Mountains, a time when high-peaks meadows are dotted with riotous color.
But for how long?
Once, wildflower season in montane meadow ecosystems extended throughout the summer months. But now scientists have found a fall-off in wildflowers at mid-season.
They published their results, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), in the current issue of the Journal of Ecology.
"Shifts in flowering in mountain meadows could in turn affect the resources available to pollinators like bees," says David Inouye of the University ...

New sealant gel is effective in closing spinal wounds following surgery, study finds
2011-06-17
A gel that creates a watertight seal to close surgical wounds provides a significant advance in the treatment of patients following spinal procedures, effectively sealing spinal wounds 100 percent of the time, a national multicenter randomized study led by researchers at UC Davis has found.
The substance, a polyethylene glycol (PEG) hydrogel sealant, plugs miniscule leaks in the thin sheath inside the spinal column that encloses the spinal cord, called the dura. The spinal cord and nerves float in cerebrospinal fluid inside the sheath.
The gel is an important step forward ...

Gatekeepers: Penn study discovers how microbes make it past tight spaces between cells
2011-06-17
PHILADELPHIA - There are ten microbial cells for every one human cell in the body, and microbiology dogma holds that there is a tight barrier protecting the inside of the body from outside invaders, in this case bacteria. Bacterial pathogens can break this barrier to cause infection and senior author Jeffrey Weiser, MD, professor of Microbiology and Pediatrics from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, and first author Thomas Clarke, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow in the Weiser lab, wondered how microbes get inside the host and circulate in the ...

Imagination can influence perception
2011-06-17
Imagining something with our mind's eye is a task we engage in frequently, whether we're daydreaming, conjuring up the face of a childhood friend, or trying to figure out exactly where we might have parked the car. But how can we tell whether our own mental images are accurate or vivid when we have no direct comparison? That is, how do we come to know and judge the contents of our own minds?
Mental imagery is typically thought to be a private phenomenon, which makes it difficult to test people's metacognition of – or knowledge about –their own mental imagery. But a novel ...
Lyme disease bacteria take cover in lymph nodes
2011-06-17
The bacteria that cause Lyme disease, one of the most important emerging diseases in the United States, appear to hide out in the lymph nodes, triggering a significant immune response, but one that is not strong enough to rout the infection, report researchers at the University of California, Davis.
Results from this groundbreaking study involving mice may explain why some people experience repeated infections of Lyme disease. The study appears online in the journal Public Library of Science Biology at: http://tinyurl.com/3vs8pm9.

Wireless 'breadcrumbs' that won’t become toast when baked...or soggy when hosed
2011-06-17
When Hansel and Gretel ventured into the forest, they left a trail of breadcrumbs to find their way home. In today's world, cellular phones, Global Positioning System (GPS), WiFi, and Bluetooth are the digital signals that connect us to friends, family, and colleagues while helping us find our location and map our routes.
Yet, despite the ubiquity of such devices, with few exceptions, today's firefighters still rely on 20th-century radios, whose outdated analog signals have trouble penetrating debris and concrete. When a firefighter heroically plunges into a smoke-filled ...
