ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) ? Stacy Lewis had another big week at St. Andrews and left with an even bigger prize ? a major championship at the home of golf.
Lewis finished a marathon Sunday with exquisite birdies on the last two holes of the Old Course to close with an even-par 72 and win the Women's British Open by two shots. It was her second major on the LPGA Tour, ending a record streak of 10 straight majors won by Asian players.
The last time the 28-year-old Lewis was at St. Andrews was in 2008 for the Curtis Cup, and she went 5-0 to lead the Americans to victory.
This was even sweeter, and it required no less than her best golf in conditions so blustery that Lewis was the only player at par or better in the last 21 groups. Three shots behind on the back nine, Na Yeon Choi gave her a chance with consecutive bogeys, and Lewis took it from there.
"It's unbelievable," Lewis said. "It all happened so fast at the end. You're afraid for every shot, and all of a sudden you make a couple of birdies and it's over."
On the par-4 17th, the famous Road Hole, Lewis drilled a 5-iron that tumbled onto the green and settled 3 feet below the cup for a birdie to reach 7-under and give her a share of the lead when Choi three-putted the 14th hole from about 80 feet.
Walking off the green, Lewis said she told her caddie, "One more."
A driver left her some 40 yards short of the green, and the Texan used a putter to whack the next shot through the Valley of Sin about 25 feet past the hole. She made that for another birdie to post a score at 8-under 280 and see if anyone could catch her.
Choi, who won the U.S. Women's Open last year, was trying to salvage pars to give her a reasonable shot at birdie on the final hole. It all came undone on the 17th. Choi's hybrid from the fairway was too strong and settled in a clump of rough, just inches from going down the slope onto the road. She chipped to 6 feet, but pulled the par putt. When she failed to holed out from the fairway, Lewis had the title.
Inbee Park's bid to become the first pro golfer to win four straight majors in one season ended early ? very early.
Park returned to the Old Course first thing in the morning to resume the third round, which was suspended Saturday because of 40 mph gusts. In calm conditions, Park couldn't cut into a large deficit and shot 74 to fall nine shots behind. Then, she began the final round by four-putting for double bogey. Park closed with rounds of 74-78 and finished 14 shots behind.
"I've done something amazing this season," Park said. "I won three straight majors. I don't know if I can do that again."
Choi, who had a three-shot lead with six holes to play, had back-to-back bogeys from about 80 feet, and her bogey on the 17th led to a 73. He tied for second with Hee Young Park, one of four players who had a share of the lead at one point in the final round. Park also had a 73.
Morgan Pressel, who had a one-shot lead going into the final round, was tied one shot behind Choi until getting into trouble off the tee at the 12th and taking double bogey. Her last hope was a birdie-birdie finish, just like Lewis, only her shot into the 17th went over the green and onto the gravel path separating the putting surface from the road.
Pressel, a major champion at 18 in 2007 at the Kraft Nabisco, closed with a 76 and had to settle for her consolation prize. She tied for fourth with Suzann Pettersen (74), enough to boost her world ranking and grab one of the last two spots on the Solheim Cup team. The other spot available through the ranking went to Lizette Salas, who finished alone in sixth place.
It was the second time the Women's British Open was played at St. Andrews, and Lewis provided another quality winner. Lorena Ochoa won in 2007.
Lewis last year became the first American since Beth Daniel in 1994 to win LPGA player of the year, which is based on a points system. Then, she won twice early this season to reach No. 1 in the world. That lasted only until Park won the first major and kept right on going.
Sunday was another stage for Lewis to show her grit.
She was diagnosed with scoliosis when she was 11, so severe that she wore a back brace for 18 hours every day from age 11 until she got out of high school, and then had to have surgery when that didn't correct the curvature in her spine.
She went on to win an NCAA title at Arkansas, star at St. Andrews for the Solheim Cup and then take the 54-hole lead in her first U.S. Women's Open as a pro. Lewis won the Kraft Nabisco in 2011, the last American major champion in women's golf until her remarkable performance Sunday.
Nothing was more impressive than her 5-iron on the 17th, one of the toughest par 4s in golf that starts with a blind tee shot over the corner of the Old Course Hotel. Lewis drilled it in the middle of the fairway, and couldn't remember how far she had for her second shot. With the wind, it didn't matter. This is the kind of shot that must be felt, and her 5-iron was hit with the right trajectory and line to catch the slopes perfectly and feed toward the hole.
"That might be one of the best of my career," Lewis said. "I was trying to hit it 160 yards in the air. It worked out perfectly."

Human Cells Make Mice Smarter
Astrocyte nerve cell
In spring a band of brainy rodents made headlines for zipping through mazes and mastering memory tricks. Scientists credited the impressive intellectual feats to human cells transplanted into their brains shortly after birth. But the increased mental muster did not come from neurons, the lanky nerve cells that swap electrical signals and stimulate muscles. The mice benefited from human stem cells called glial progenitors, immature cells poised to become astrocytes and other glia cells, the supposed support cells of the brain.
Astrocytes are known for mopping up excess neuro-transmitters and maintaining balance in brain systems. During the past couple of decades, however, researchers started suspecting astrocytes of making more complex cognitive contributions. In the 1990s the cells got caught using calcium to accomplish a form of nonelectrical signaling. Studies since then have revealed how extensively astrocytes interact with neurons, even coordinating their activity in some cases.
Perhaps even more intriguing, our astrocytes are enormous compared with the astrocytes of other animals?20 times larger than rodent astrocytes?and they make contact with millions of neurons apiece. Neurons, on the other hand, are nearly identical in all mammals, from rodents to great apes like us. Such clues suggest astrocytes could be evolutionary contributors to our outsized intellect.
The new study, published in March in Cell Stem Cell, tested this hypothesis. A subset of the implanted human stem cells matured into rotund, humanlike astrocytes in the animals' brains, taking over operations from the native mouse astrocytes. When tested under a microscope, these human astrocytes accomplished calcium signaling at least three times faster than the mouse astrocytes did. The enhanced mice masterfully memorized new objects, swiftly learned to link certain sounds or situations to an unpleasant foot shock, and displayed un-usually savvy maze navigation?signs of mental acuity that surpassed skills exhibited by either typical mice or mice transplanted with glial progenitor cells from their own species.
Alexei Verkhratsky, a glia researcher at the University of Manchester in England who was not involved in the mouse study, calls the work ?truly remarkable,? both conceptually and technically. He notes that the new results do not necessarily conflict with astrocytes' support role. Rather, Verkhratsky argues, the apparent advantages afforded by human astrocytes may be a consequence of their housekeeping abilities, underscoring the interdependence between glia and neurons.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ? Apple Inc may continue to import and sell certain older iPads and iPhones made to use on AT&T's network, U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman said on Saturday in overturning a ban issued by a trade panel. Froman overturned a June decision by the International Trade Commission, which ruled that some Apple products infringed a patent owned by Samsung Electronics and ordered Apple to stop selling the popular devices. "This decision is based on my review of the various policy considerations ? as they relate to the effect on competitive conditions in the U.S. ?

Mysterious hum: The hunt for a source
Mysterious hum: Since the 1950s, people from various towns around the world have heard a mysterious, annoying, low-frequency humming. Research is underway to find the cause (or causes) of "the Hum."
It creeps in slowly in the dark of night, and once inside, it almost never goes away.

It's known as the Hum, a steady, droning sound that's heard in places as disparate as Taos, N.M.; Bristol, England; and Largs, Scotland.
But what causes the Hum, and why it only affects a small percentage of the population in certain areas, remain a mystery, despite a number of scientific investigations. [The Top 10 Unexplained Phenomena]
Reports started trickling in during the 1950s from people who had never heard anything unusual before; suddenly, they were bedeviled by an annoying, low-frequency humming, throbbing or rumbling sound.
The cases seem to have several factors in common: Generally, the Hum is only heard indoors, and it's louder at night than during the day. It's also more common in rural or suburban environments; reports of a hum are rare in urban areas, probably because of the steady background noise in crowded cities.
Who hears the Hum?
Only about 2 percent of the people living in any given Hum-prone area can hear the sound, and most of them are ages 55 to 70, according to a 2003 study by acoustical consultant Geoff Leventhall of Surrey, England.
Most of the people who hear the Hum (sometimes referred to as "hearers" or "hummers") describe the sound as similar to a diesel engine idling nearby. And the Hum has driven virtually every one of them to the point of despair. [Video: Listen to 6 Spooky Sounds]
"It's a kind of torture; sometimes, you just want to scream," retiree Katie Jacques of Leeds, England, told the BBC. Leeds is one of several places in Great Britain where the Hum has recently appeared.
"It's worst at night," Jacques said. "It's hard to get off to sleep because I hear this throbbing sound in the background ? You're tossing and turning, and you get more and more agitated about it."
Being dismissed as crackpots or whiners only exacerbates the distress for these complainants, most of whom have perfectly normal hearing. Sufferers complain of headaches, nausea, dizziness, nosebleeds and sleep disturbances. At least one suicide in the United Kingdom has been blamed on the Hum, the BBC reports. [The Top 10 Spooky Sleep Disorders]
The Hum zones
Bristol, England, was one of the first places on Earth where the Hum was reported. In the 1970s, about 800 people in the coastal city reported hearing a steady thrumming sound, which was eventually blamed on vehicular traffic and local factories working 24-hour shifts.
Another famous hum occurs near Taos, N.M. Starting in spring 1991, residents of the area complained of a low-level rumbling noise. A team of researchers from Los Alamos National Laboratory, the University of New Mexico, Sandia National Laboratories and other regional experts were unable to identify the source of the sound.
Windsor, Ontario, is another Hum hotspot. Researchers from the University of Windsor and Western University in London, Ontario, were recently given a grant to analyze the Windsor Hum and determine its cause.

Autopsy: University of Michigan med student shot to death
Paul DeWolf was found dead in his off-campus home Wednesday morning when a coworker went to check on him after he did not show up to perform a scheduled procedure at Veteran's Hospital.
Ann Arbor police have been investigating DeWolf's death as a homicide. No firearm was found near his body.

DeWolf also was a second lieutenant in the Air Force. He was living with other medical students at the Phi Rho Sigma fraternity house in the 200 block of North Ingalls.
Anyone with information on his death is asked to call the Ann Arbor police tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 800-SPEAK-UP.
At GVSU, DeWolf made a lot of close friends, especially his brothers at the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity.
"I don't see how anyone could ever want to hurt Paul," said friend Jason Halterman.
"What would drive someone to hurt someone like him in this way? It just blows my mind," said friend Mike Patterson.
DeWolf was continuing his medical studies at the University of Michigan. Friends say he was an athlete with a big personality. He often dressed up in crazy costumes while running races or playing sports such as volleyball.
He was a talented student with big dreams and a bright future.
"Everyone's life he made a positive impact on," said Patterson.
DeWolf wanted to become an orthopedic surgeon after graduation. His Air Force training was one of the main reasons he worked at the Veteran's Hospital.
