SIX STABBED AT THE BELFRY 

NIGHTCLUB ON NEW YEAR'S EVE

FROM GOLF CHANNEL DIGITAL
Six people were stabbed during a New Year’s Eve celebration at The Belfry in Warwickshire, according to a report by the BBC.
The story states that police arrived at the Bel Air nightclub on resort grounds and found a man with a stab wound in his chest.
"While police were at the scene, further incidents took place, both inside and outside of the nightclub," a spokesperson said. "These resulted in a further five people sustaining injuries, believed to be stab wounds.
"Four were taken to hospital and one, a 28 year-old man, is in a critical condition."
Three men were arrested in relation to the stabbings.
The Belfry hosted the Ryder Cup in 1983, 1985, 1993 and 2002.

NIKE PATENT RECYCLABLE GOLF BALL

FROM GOLF DIGEST.COM
By Alex Myers

Nike has received a patent on a recyclable golf ball, Bloomberg reported. According to the patent filed, many golf balls are thrown out once they get scuffed, despite their cores remaining in good shape. The new technology would create a ball that would contain an extra layer between the cover and the core, which would allow users to remove the initial cover and reuse the rest of the ball.
But the actual recycling isn't so simple. The patent also includes a process by which the ball would be prepared through the use of a chemical reaction that creates a gas that allows for the separation. In other words, don't try this at home.
Nike applied for the patent nearly two years ago. It's unclear as to when (if ever) production on these recyclable balls will begin.
