|The Exercise & Cholesterol Controversy
By Len Kravitz, Ph.D and Vivian Heyward, Ph.D.
The association between high serum cholesterol levels and the incidence and severity of coronary heart disease (CHD) is so pronounced in epidemiological studies that the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute recognizes this association as causal (Expert Panel, 1993) . Recent overviews have indicated that a 1% reduction in a person's total serum cholesterol level yields a 2 to 3% reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease (Manson et al., 1992) . Aerobic fitness and exercise programs such as walking, jogging, and aerobics have been encouraged as a means to reduce total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglycerides while elevating the "good" high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Several long-term, or longitudinal, studies have been conducted with healthy individuals to measure the effect of increased physical activity on serum lipoprotein concentrations. The results of these studies have been mixed. This paper will attempt to clarify the association between physical activity and blood lipoproteins.
What are lipoproteins?
Lipoproteins are transport vehicles in the circulation plasma that are composed of various lipids such as cholesterol, phospholipids, triglycerides and proteins known as apoproteins. The major classes of lipoproteins are chylomicrons, very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), LDL-C, and HDL-C. Chylomicrons are the largest lipoproteins, consisting of approximately 85% triglycerides. Triglycerides are the main type of lipids found in adipose tissue and in the diet. Once the triglycerides are removed from the chylomicron at receptor sites in the body, the chylomicron remnant is returned to the liver for further metabolism. The principal lipid of VLDL-C is also triglycerides (60 - 70%).
LDL-C is the primary transport carrier of cholesterol in the circulation. About 50-60% of cholesterol is delivered to the cells by LDL-C. Evidence suggests that LDL-C may directly contribute to the cellular alterations of the inner walls of arteries which may ultimately lead to the development of atherosclerotic plaque (Scann, 1978) . Thus, LDL-C is proposed to be more highly associated with CHD than total cholesterol (Manson et al., 1992) .
On the other hand, HDL-C has an inverse relationship with coronary heart disease, offering a protecting mechanism against the development of CHD (Kannel, Castelli, & Gordon, 1971) . HDL-C is considered to be the most powerful lipid parameter for predicting CHD in people of all ages (Gordon et al., 1977) . The primary function of HDL-C is to transport cholesterol from the tissues and blood to the liver for excretion from the body or synthesis into bile acids. HDL-C also prevents the uptake of LDL-C at receptor sites in the body and participates in the metabolism of other lipoproteins.
HDL-C is predominantly composed of phospholipids and is separated into several subclasses, based on size and particle density. The major subclasses are referred to as HDL2 and HDL3. It is known that females have a higher content of HDL2 than males, which helps to protect women from developing CHD (Wood & Haskell, 1979) .
The Role of Physical Activity on Lipid and Lipoprotein Levels
Although total cholesterol levels are lower in persons with high aerobic fitness compared to low aerobic fitness, it has not been conclusively demonstrated that exercise training lowers total cholesterol. Measurements made before and after exercise training have produced variable results with no clear consensus as to whether or not moderate or vigorous exercise can lower total cholesterol. In studies where total cholesterol has been significantly reduced, it appears that the activities were more dynamic and vigorous in nature, such as running programs. In contrast to the variable effects of exercise on total cholesterol, endurance exercise consistently lowers triglycerides (Martin, Haskell, & Wood, 1977) . A physically active lifestyle may help to prevent the age-related rise in triglycerides normally observed in men. It also appears that endurance exercise lowers triglyceride levels more so in individuals having elevated initial baseline levels. Lower triglyceride concentrations in the blood have been attributed to increases in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase activity resulting from aerobic training. Lipoprotein lipase is the key enzyme for the breakdown of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. On a long-term basis, the decrease of body fat that often accompanies endurance training may be a contributing factor for this lowering effect of triglycerides due to exercise.
Like total cholesterol, the impact of habitual aerobic exercise on LDL-C appears to be quite variable. However, the majority of studies comparing endurance athletes to sedentary controls or the general population reported that athletes have lower LDL-C levels, with leaner athletes frequently having the lowest values. Although it appears that endurance training may decrease LDL-C, there is little information about the biochemical mechanism producing this change.
Endurance-trained athletes have much higher HDL-C values compared to sedentary populations (Haskell, 1984) . Although it is not yet definitive, moderate and high intensity aerobic exercise training appears to be associated with elevated HDL-C values. The primary reason for the elevation in HDL-C is an increase in lipoprotein lipase activity in response to exercise. Lipoprotein lipase accelerates the breakdown of triglycerides, resulting in a transfer of cholesterol and other substances to the HDL-C. It is interesting to note that healthy patients whose physical activity was restricted to bed rest for three to six weeks because of some type of traumatic fracture, showed a significant decrease in HDL-C levels (Nikkila, Kuusi, & Myllynen, 1980) .
In addition to aerobic training, there are a few studies suggesting that resistance training may also improve lipid and lipoprotein profiles (Goldberg & Elliot, 1985) . Decreases in total cholesterol and LDL-C have been reported for both men and women, with women also showing a significant decrease in triglycerides, from resistance training (Goldberg et al., 1984). However, the alteration of personal lifestyle habits in conjunction with a decrease in body fat and increase in fat-free mass may contribute to these favorable changes.
Women, Lipoproteins and Exercise
Cross-sectional studies confirm that active women have higher HDL-C levels than their sedentary counterparts. Apparently, the duration and frequency of aerobic exercise may be more important in altering HDL-C than the intensity of the exercise. However, because of the confounding effects of diet, body composition, exogenous hormone use, contraceptive use, alcohol consumption, and age, the specific exercise recommendations for increasing HDL-C have yet to be determined (Taylor & Ward, 1993) .
Although resistance training has become more popular with women the last several years, the effects of this type of training on blood lipid levels needs more research. Nevertheless, one recently published and well-designed study indicated that five months of sustained resistance training significantly decreased total cholesterol and LDL-C in women (Boyden et al., 1993) .

Kurt Bills, won the Republican nomination
Last Friday, the YAL PAC-endorsed U.S. Senate Candidate, Kurt Bills, won the Republican nomination at the Minnesota State Convention. He will now take on the statist Democrat, Amy Klobuchar.
Thanks to your support, the YAL PAC bundled $18,315 for his victorious primary campaign.
Also, Kurt's Deputy Field Director, Matt Pagano, is a YAL member and YAL-trained activist. And, just this week, YAL MN State Chair, Tim Bertram, left his position with YAL to join Kurt's campaign as Youth Coordinator.
Take a look at this picture with Matt and Kurt at the state convention:
Our message is growing, and YAL's mission of "winning on principle" continues to advance!
Kurt won the nomination with more than 60% of the convention vote -- more votes than his two well-funded establishment opponents COMIBINED. But to win the general election, Kurt will need to raise enough money to fight Klobuchar's established fundraising machine.
That's where you and I must come in. Your past support played a significant role in securing his primary victory. But, now he needs your support again for the general election.
Will you help take on the establishment's money machine and send Kurt to the Senate?
He is exactly the candidate we need to assist Rand Paul and Mike Lee in their fight for liberty on Capitol Hill!
Remember, Kurt Bills:
- Is an economics teacher who supports free markets
- Opposes all government spending that adds to our national debt
- Supports a full audit of the Federal Reserve
- Opposes the PATRIOT Act, TSA, SOPA, and NDAA
- Supports a non-interventionist foreign policy and ending the wars overseas
Then, please consider donating to him at this key time. Your contribution of $25, $50, $250 or $2,500 ($5,000 for couples) through the YAL PAC will signal to Kurt that you support his strict constitutional positions and stand alongside him as he prepares to take on the big-government Democrat.
As you can see, YAL is doing everything we can to elect another "Champion of the Constitution." I hope you will join in too.
For liberty,
Jeff Frazee
Executive Director, YAL

The Consequences of Our Political Choices

The Significance of the Obamacare Ruling
by Robert Tracinski
Editor's Note: My local Tea Party group, the Jefferson Area Tea Party, is meeting tonight. We were supposed to be gathering for a talk by Oleg Atbashian of The People's Cube, but Oleg got trapped in Florida because of a hurricane. So instead, among other things, I'm giving a short presentation tonight on the Obamacare ruling and its implications. Here is what I plan to say.—RWTWe're back to square one.
I know today's Supreme Court opinion on Obamacare is a disappointment, but let's remember why it is a disappointment. No one had any great expectations that the Supreme Court would throw out the whole health care law—we though it might, but we didn't expect it—before late March. It was only after the oral hearings on Obamacare that we began to hope that a majority of justices would accept the constitutional arguments against it. So our expectations were disappointed only because they were raised.
Now those expectations were not entirely dashed. A number of people have pointed out that there is a silver lining in Chief Justice Roberts' ruling. The whole case for the constitutionality of Obamacare, as presented by the Obama administration and Democrats in Congress, was that the regulatory power given to Congress under the Commerce Clause is unlimited. But Roberts specifically rejected that argument and wrote into his opinion anexplicit limitation on the scope of the Commerce Clause. Here is what he wrote:
"Construing the Commerce Clause to permit Congress to regulate individuals precisely because they are doing nothing would open a new and potentially vast domain to congressional authority. Congress already possesses expansive power to regulate what people do. Upholding the Affordable Care Act under the Commerce Clause would give Congress the same license to regulate what people do not do. The Framers knew the difference between doing something and doing nothing. They gave Congress the power to regulate commerce, not to compel it. Ignoring that distinction would undermine the principle that the Federal Government is a government of limited and enumerated powers. The individual mandate thus cannot be sustained under Congress's power to 'regulate Commerce.'"Now that is the kind of thing we haven't heard in a long time. And he got four liberal justices to sign off on it.
But that's kind of a pyrrhic victory, because he did sustain the individual mandate under the government's power to tax, which apparently is unlimited. The whole point of limiting the power of Congress under the Commerce Clause is to stop legislation like Obamacare. So if it doesn't stop Obamacare, the limitation is a bit theoretical and airy-fairy.
The big lesson here is this. If you limit one of government's broad, sweeping, unlimited powers, you'll find that they get you with another of the government's broad, sweeping, unlimited powers. Remember the story of the little Dutch boy and the dike? He sticks his finger in a chink in the dike to stop the kingdom from being flooded. Well, we stuck our finger in the Commerce Clause chink over here, and then a new leak sprung up in the Taxation Power chink over there.
So it's a reminder of how vast and out of control government power has gotten, and how big a task we still have ahead of us.
As for the immediate implication, Chief Justice Roberts told us exactly what to do.
"Members of this Court are vested with the authority to interpret the law; we possess neither the expertise nor the prerogative to make policy judgments. Those decisions are entrusted to our Nation's elected leaders, who can be thrown out of office if the people disagree with them. It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices."Repeat: "It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices."
The American people made bad political choices in 2006 and 2008, and it's going to take three elections to undo them. It will take three votes to cycle through all of the seats in the Senate and reverse the huge Senate majority the Democrats had in 2008.
This is the second of those elections. And as Mitt Romney reminded us, the only way to get rid of Obamacare now is to vote Barack Obama out of office. And not just to remove the president, but to get a strong Republican majority in the Senate. I don't think I need to remind people here in Virginia what that means for us.
So it's up to us now to fight for the repeal of Obamacare by making our wishes known at the polls in November. This is the most important fight of our lives, and not just because Obamacare is destructive and a power grab. It is important because of how Obamacare was passed.
Here's one of the things I noticed about the ruling. When Obamacare was passed, President Obama swore blind that the individual mandate was not a tax. And when Democrats in Congress were asked for the constitutional justification for the law, they cited their unlimited power under the Commerce Clause. So this ruling basically holds that Obamacare is constitutional—if we assume that Obama was lying and that Congress was dead wrong about the Constitution.
But we know that this won't really faze the left, because we know, from history, the kind of calculation they make. They don't mind lying and twisting the arguments to get a bill passed, and they don't even mind losing an election or two, if they have to. Because they know that once the law is passed—again, based on historical experience—once it is passed, it's there forever. Government grows, more people are made depending on government benefits, and they get to act as the benefactors who are handing out all of these free goodies, and as the people protecting these benefits against those mean-spirited Republicans who keep telling us that we can't afford it.
So you can see the strategic calculation. Lose an election today, but expand the state and win elections tomorrow.
This calculation works for them, so long as nothing ever gets repealed. It's a sort of Brezhnev Doctrine for statism. Back during the Cold War, Brezhnev was the Soviet dictator who said that once a country went Communist, it was never allowed to go back. So if someone decided to allow a little bit of freedom in Hungary or in Czechoslovakia, in rolled the tanks. People don't remember it much these days, but there were two competing theories about how to deal with this. The first was "containment," which is what we did for a long time. The idea was just to keep the Soviets from expanding, but we still accepted the advances the Soviets had already made.
The other strategy was called "rollback," which was the idea that we should try to dislodge the Communists from Latin America, from Eastern Europe, from places like Afghanistan. And the moment we did that—well, you know how it turned out.
What we need is a strategy of rollback for big government, for the welfare state. We need to show the Democrats that they can lose Congress and lose the presidency for the sake of Obamacare—and we'll still repeal the damned thing. That ought to reduce the incentive to shove through a piece of legislation that the American people hate.
We need to seek the same outcome that Ronald Reagan announced as his goal for how the Cold War would end: "We win, they lose." We started doing that in November of 2010, and we have to keep on doing it this year.
Postscript: The above is all I'll have time for tonight. Helen has given me a strict time limit, and she's not a woman to be trifled with.
For my readers, I'll add one more point. The Obamacare ruling doesn't just create an issue for the battle between left and right. It also sets up an important crusade within the right. As I have written before, the oral hearings on Obamacare, the seriousness with which the arguments were taken—and now the fact that those arguments were fully accepted by four of the conservative justices—all of that gives us a sense that it may be possible to revive constitutional protections for economic liberty. If Romney wins, this sets one of our top priorities for after the election. We need to make sure that the next Supreme Court appointee is not just someone who is vaguely "conservative," but someone who will accept the kinds of arguments that the four dissenters in this case accepted.
That fight is not over. It is just beginning.

Rand Paul on SCOTUS
Today the Supreme Court wrongly concluded that Obamacare can stand.
Make no mistake. It is not constitutional. One Justice using tortured logic defying the intent of the framers and the will of the people will claim it is so. But it is not.
The key part of their decision, in my opinion was a call to action.
The decision stated:
Members of this Court are vested with the authority to interpret the law; we possess neither the expertise nor the prerogative to make policy judgments. Those decisions are entrusted to our Nation's elected leaders, who can be thrown out of office if the people disagree with them. It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices."
The Supreme Court has told us the answer even while helping trample our rights.
Throw them out. Every single one of them.
Every Democrat who voted for Obamacare, up to and including President Obama must be defeated this fall if we are to have our last chance to stop Obamacare from taking over our healthcare system.
That means something very simple -- we are at war. It starts today.
RANDPAC will take the fight to every incumbent Democrat in a competitive race who voted for Obamacare. We will help lead the charge to do what the Supreme Court just told us is our only option -- throw them out.
Throw them out for violating their oath to uphold the constitution.
Throw them out for a massive government scheme to destroy private healthcare.
Throw them out for massive new taxes and a tightening of their socialist stranglehold on our economy.
I can't do it without you.
That's why it's crucial you sign RANDPAC's "Repeal Obamacare Now!" petition.
After you sign the petition, please make your most generous contribution of $100, $50, $25, $10 –or whatever you can afford – right away so RANDPAC has all the resources necessary to mobilize outraged Americans across the country through email, mail, online advertising – and if we have the funds – hard-hitting TV and radio ads to fire any Democrat who voted for Obamacare.
I am mad as hell this morning reading this decision and watching the statist glee from the White House, the Democrats and the liberal media.
You and I have to wipe that smile off their face this fall. And our battle begins today.
Help send them a message that YOU are willing to fight back by joining RANDPAC's FULL REPEAL campaign.
Every district, every state. Anywhere we can make a difference, RANDPAC will go.
So please sign the "Repeal Obamacare Now!" petition today.
In order to succeed in this fight, I must rally hundreds of thousands of Americans, and financially support dozens of candidates in the coming weeks and months.
That means I must raise at least $100,000 immediately, and $500,000 by August 1.
Can you help reach those goals with a contribution today?
President Obama and the Democrats will pretend the Supreme Court authored the final words on Obamacare, but there is a little thing called an election this November where you and I will have the final say.
For Liberty,
Rand Paul
United States Senator
P.S. Today the Supreme Court wrongly concluded that Obamacare can stand.
Every Democrat who voted for Obamacare, up to and including President Obama must be defeated this fall if we are to have our last chance to stop Obamacare from taking over our healthcare system.
So please sign the repeal Obamacare petition right away.
After you sign the petition, please make your most generous contribution of $100, $50, $25, $10 – or whatever you can afford today – so RANDPAC can take the fight to every incumbent Democrat in a competitive race who voted for Obamacare. We will help lead the charge to do what the Supreme Court just told us is our only option -- throw them out.

This morning, the Supreme Court upheld ObamaCare's individual mandate...
This morning, the Supreme Court upheld ObamaCare's individual mandate on health insurance. Despite the fact that Obama insisted that his health care law was not a tax, the Supreme Court disagreed. Obama's signature accomplishment as President is now one of the largest tax increases that the middle class has ever seen.
We must repeal ObamaCare. This begins by electing politicians who oppose higher taxes. In November, we must replace everyone in Washington who voted for a $500 billion tax increase but we need your help.
With your support, we can let voters know the truth about the ObamaCare tax hikes. It's your voice that will help make the difference in electing fiscal conservatives who stand with taxpayers.
Can we count on your contribution of $10, $15, $20, or $25 today?
On September 12, 2008, Obama promised that "no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase." Barack Obama lied his way into office. ObamaCare includes 20 new or higher taxes that amount to a $500 billion tax over the next decade. In order to help educate Obama sympathizers on his broken promises, we will send you the "Obama Tax Hike Exemption Card" seen below with a contribution of $10 or more today.
Your voice will make the difference in helping us get rid of everyone who supported this horribly disastrous law.
Can we count on your contribution of $10, $15, $20, or $25 today?

Atlas Shrugged and Future of Individualism
Atlas Summit
Either-Or: Atlas Shrugged and Future of Individualism
Renaissance Downtown Hotel, Washington DC
June 28-July 1, 2012
Preparation Guide
The Atlas Summit will begin on Thursday, June 28, with registration from 5 p.m.-10 p.m. and ouropening reception at 7 p.m. The conference will end with a closing reception and dance on Sunday evening, July 1. If possible, you should plan to arrive in Washington between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on June 28.
Conference Registration
At conference registration, you will receive a name tag that will be your primary participant identification, as well as a 3-ring binder containing abstracts and outlines of the Atlas Summit sessions, a program schedule, and other useful information.
Registration for the conference will take place from 5 p.m.-7 p.m. and from 9 p.m.-10 p.m. on Thursday, June 28: look for us in the lobby, and if we aren't there, look for us near Office C on the Ballroom Level by the Renaissance Ballroom.
If you cannot make it to registration at those times, track down the TAS conference staff at one of the TAS offices, by phone, or at the lecture halls and Common Room in Penn Quarter, and we will register you for the conference.
Opening Reception
To open the Atlas Summit, TAS will host an opening reception 7:00 p.m.-8:30 p.m. in the Renaissance Ballroom Foyer. It will feature food stations that should satisfy the not-too-hungry eater (but if you're very hungry or have a restricted diet, you may want to dine separately). There will be free soft drinks and a cash bar for alcohol. Come meet everyone, get to know the speakers and staff, and get into the swing of things. After the reception, drift up to the Common Room in Penn Quarter to keep the conviviality going.
Meeting for Students
The Atlas Society staff invites students attending the Atlas Summit to a special meeting at 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 28, in Meeting Room 3, after the opening reception. Students on scholarship are required to attend (and complete an assignment that will be explained at the meeting). For all students, and especially for those attending their first TAS event, this will be a valuable opportunity to consider the distinctive value of Objectivism and to meet other students as well as some of the Atlas Summit faculty.
Friday Dinner Event "Atlas Shrugged and Struggle for Liberty"
The Friday dinner is a full, seated banquet with salad, entree, dessert, and a selection of table wines. It will be held from 7:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m. in the Renaissance Ballroom West.
If you are attending the Friday dinner, you must choose an entree from among:
- Smoked tea salt marinated N.Y. strip steak with porcini demi-glace & au gratin potatoes
- Double breast of chicken with forest mushroom duxelle, with sundried tomato-marsala demi-glace & reggiano polenta
- Oven-roasted salmon with lobster-tarragon sauce & ginger risotto cake
- Roasted vegetable paella (vegan), composed of saffron scented shortgrain rice, piquillo peppers, zucchini, squash, sweet peas, grilled eggplant, oven roasted tomatoes, & grilled asparagus
We are sending each participant an online survey link that you can use to let us know whether you are attending the opening reception, the Friday dinner, and/or the closing reception, and to let us know what your entree preference is for the dinner (if you will be there). You can also just email your preferences to the conference director. Either way, let us know your meal preferences by Sunday, June 24.
Closing Reception and Dance Party
The Atlas Summit goes out with a bang. TAS will host a catered reception Sunday, July 1, 7:00 p.m.-8:30 p.m. in the Renaissance Ballroom West. The food stations should satisfy the not-too-hungry eater (but if you're very hungry or have a restricted diet, you may want dine separately). There will be free soft drinks and a cash bar for alcohol. After the reception, you may hit the dance floor or drift out to the Foyer for conversation with friends old and newfound.
What to Bring
We suggest a "dress casual" clothing style: not stuffy, not sloppy. Be prepared for heat and humidity outside and for cold air-conditioning inside.
For the Friday dinner and for the final reception and dance on Sunday night, or if you plan to attend our Sponsors Dinner Saturday night, you should plan to wear something more dressy (a jacket and tie for men or an evening or cocktail dress for women would suit the occasions fine).
If you want to take notes on the Atlas Summit sessions, a pen or pencil and some loose-leaf notebook paper might serve you well, though your conference binder has a page at least for the outline of each session.
Website and Online Program
The Atlas Summit website is www.atlassociety.org/as. Go there or to http://either-or.sched.org to see the conference schedule, see who else is attending, and create your personalized program. (Social networking via Sched.org replaces our traditional print Participant Directory.) You can download the program onto your mobile device, too. We will post other resources on the Atlas Summit website, including a link to live streaming, and after the conference it will be your source for speakers' notes and slide shows and for recordings.
Seminar Policies
The Atlas Summit exemplifies The Atlas Society's two-decade tradition of open, rational, benevolent conversation about philosophy, politics, the arts, and the art of living. We encourage you to take every opportunity to engage with the people and ideas we have gathered. We trust and expect that you will do so in a civil, courteous, and even friendly manner, so that you and your fellow participants can have an enjoyable, educational experience.

Salmon and trout are healthy, if expensive, meals for humans. However, they can kill dogs. It is called salmon poisoning, but can happen with any fish that spends its' time swimming against the river current. You may think that would not be an issue here, but it is. Texas Parks and Wildlife stocks certain ponds and lakes with trout each winter for fisherman to catch. Most grocery stores carry salmon and trout.
While you may never intentionally feed your dog raw fish, he may get into the garbage and help himself if you are not careful. There has been a report of a fisherman feeding the guts of his trout catch to his dog, and the dog getting sick. What exactly is it in these fish that makes the dogs so sick?
Salmon and trout have a parasite, called Nanophyetus salmincola. The parasite has another parasite, called Neorickettsia helminthoeca. It is this second parasite that is the killer. N. helminthoeca is a rickettsial organism, much like some of the water parasites that have infected our water here in recent years. Dogs are, for some reason, the only species that suffer from salmon poisoning.
Within six days of eating salmon or trout, the dog will start vomiting, show a lack of appetite, fever, diarrhea, weakness, swollen lymph nodes, and dehydration. If your dog starts showing these symptoms it is important to take the dog to a veterinarian promptly. Ninety percent of untreated dogs die.
Fortunately, if the dog is treated promptly, he usually recovers. If you know the dog has been in the trash and gotten raw fish, call your vet then. If the dog is showing symptoms and you know he has had raw fish, or might have gotten some, tell your veterinarian. Otherwise, they will waste precious time on diagnostic tests. These tests are both expensive and will not address the problem.
Once the dog is diagnosed with salmon poisoning, he is given antibiotics and a wormer. The antibiotics kill the N. helminthoeca that is the cause of the symptoms and the wormer gets rid of the N. salmincola that harbors him. If the dog is very dehydrated from vomiting and diarrhea, supportive care such as an IV may also be given.
The best thing you can do for your dog is to make sure he has no access to raw fish. Freeze scraps and put them in the trash the day of collection. Refuse to give your dog any part of the raw fish. Make sure he does not have access to the neighbor's trash, where he might find such scraps.

Emily: "Of all the weapons we take into battle, there's none more powerful than the mind. It holds our instincts and our training. It allows us to distinguish friend from foe, love from hate. If that weapon is unsound, it is by no means disarmed. The mind is all the more dangerous when damaged."
"Payback" is tonight's episode of "Revenge." If you haven't seen tonight's episode, then beware of spoilers. To review what happened last time, click here. Be sure to check out the slideshow for more quotes from tonight's episode. "Revenge" airs Sunday nights at 9 on ABC (KTRK).
Emily is still suffering through blackouts during this episode. There are clues given at the end of the episode, but they come a tad bit too late. One nice thing during her storyline is that Nolan records Emily right after her vision blurs, so that viewers (and Emily) get a sense of what she is like right after she blacks out. Personally, I was thinking these blackouts would be Amanda Clarke tired of being Emily Thorne, and attempting to live her life without the lies. What it might be, is a mental illness that Emily's mother had. It is great to mention Emily's mother, but right now, we need to see the writers flesh out this idea a little more. What are your thoughts on Emily's blackouts?
Patrick and Victoria's storyline is not entertaining or exciting in the least. It does not do anything exciting really. The writers never really make it clear as to whether or not Jimmy is the bad guy that Victoria makes him out to be. While it is hard to imagine her lying about what happened to her with him, she is still Victoria Grayson. The writers should have done more to show either that he is not the man Victoria says he is, or that Jimmy is not someone you want to run into. It is almost as if the writers expect that Victoria's words and those weird two second flashbacks would be enough for the viewers. If you are going to go through and make viewers sit through an episode that is mostly about him, then paint a clear picture of him. Personally, he comes off as slightly suspicious or creepy, but I did not have strong feelings about him other than boredom of the storyline. Did you enjoy this storyline? What do you think about Jimmy?
Here are quick thoughts on elsewhere in the episode. Oh right, Charlotte doesn't know that Daniel shot Emily. This will be interesting when it comes out. Charlotte and Daniel teaming up definitely has potential, and hopefully it will give Charlotte an interesting storyline. It is hard not to immediately like Stevie Grayson. She is entertaining. However, the twist that she is Jack's mom is strange and comes out of nowhere. The writers are definitely going to have to do some convincing about this. Right now, there doesn't seem to be a point in having Stevie be Jack's mother. Are you a fan of the twist that Stevie is Jack's mom?

A jury today, Aug. 20, convicted a 38-year old Texas man for his role in prostituting two minor females last year, according to the Office of Attorney General Greg Abbott and also United States Attorney Robert Pitman. Abbott, who is a native of Wichita Falls, continues working hard as the top law enforcement official in Texas, while at the same time running for governor.
The Texas governor's election will be determined in November of 2014 with Abbott leading in the polls. But he has not taken his eye off the ball as Attorney General as he continues to fight sex trafficking. In this case his office combined with the U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI in the investigation and prosecution of Wright.
The San Antonio jury convicted Marcus Deshawn Wright of two counts of sex trafficking of minors and one count of production of child pornography. Jurors heard evidence that Wright along with co-defendants 20-year old Amber Doak and 22-year old Malcolm Deandre Copeland were involved in a plan to entice and encourage minors into engaging in sexual acts for payment.
Wright, who is now in federal custody, is looking at between ten years and life in federal prison for sex trafficking of minors and between 15 and 30 years for production of child pornography. Although he now realizes his address will be in a federal facility somewhere, he will not find out for how long until he is sentenced on January 16, 2015.
Copeland and Doak had previously been convicted. It was on July 23, 2014 that Copeland got the bad news that a jury convicted her of two counts of sex trafficking with minors. Doak waived her right to a trial and pleaded guilty in March 2014 to one count of sex trafficking of minors. Copeland will be sentenced on Dec. 4, 2014. Doak's sentencing date will be September 12, 2014.
Another co-defendant Raymond Valas has a jury trial set for Nov. 17, 2014 in front of U.S. Chief District Judge Fred Biery.
The case was investigated by an array of law enforcement agencies including the Texas Attorney General's Office, the FBI and the San Antonio Police Department. Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Geoff Barr from the Texas Attorney General's Office is also involved in the prosecution along with Assistant U.S. Attorney Bettina Richardson.
Abbott has made the fight against sex trafficking an issue in the governor's race as he's campaigned hard on his strong law enforcement record. The jury's verdict today was only the latest in a long line of successful prosecutions obtained by Abbott's office frequently in conjunction with the feds and other governmental agencies.
If elected governor, Abbott will become the first native of Wichita Falls to ever hold that post.

Targeted Genetics is to delist from NASDAQ and deregister its common stock. The company believes that the expense and management attention required for compliance with NASDAQ Capital Market and the Securities and Exchange Commission outweigh their benefits.
Instead, it plans to use its limited resources to support continued efforts to turn certain assets into cash and to back product-development programs currently under way with commercial and academic partners. The firm also hopes to realize value through milestone fees and royalties from licensing relationships.
In September 2009, Targeted Genetics sold a number of assets to Genzyme, including manufacturing technologies and other adeno-associated viral vector technologies for $7 million in cash. The company estimates that it closed last year with cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.5 million. The firm currently has six full-time equivalent employees but plans to shift its CEO and CFO to part-time status.
"During 2009, we generated significant cash resources and eliminated significant liabilities through a number of transactions while at the same time significantly reducing our expenses," notes B.G. Susan Robinson, president and CEO. "We will continue these aggressive efforts to conserve resources and embrace opportunity with the goal of capturing the most value for our shareholders".
Targeted Genetics has informed NASDAQ of its decision not to pursue a reverse stock split as a means to regain compliance with the NASDAQ's $1.00 per share minimum bid-price requirement. Delisting of the company's common stock is expected to become effective in 10 days by around February 1. Following the delisting Targeted Genetics anticipates that its common stock will be quoted on the Pink Sheets. The company also intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to voluntarily deregister its common stock.

This is probably an unnecessary question, but how would I know given a problem when it's appropriate to use a chi-square test vs. binomial or normal distribution in a problem? Let's say that the example is dice and which numbers it lands on.
Mathematics Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for people studying math at any level and professionals in related fields. It's 100% free, no registration required.

Here's how it works:
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The chi-square test is used to test how well a certain number of outcomes are following a given distribution.
The binomial and normal distributions are two specific distributions. Once you decide that your problem is modelled by one of them you can use them to calculate theorical statistics such as average or percentile values.
If you need to model the outcomes of a die, then you would use a discrete uniform distribution, where all the outcomes are equally probable and with probability of 1/6.

VCU FAQs (If the information you are looking for is not here, check out askIT.)
Lotus Notes Transition to Google Apps
What can I expect to happen during my transition and migration to Google Apps?
Check out the Switch from Lotus Notes page for instructions on how to get ready and clean up your Lotus Notes account. To prepare your account Collaboration Services will archive all mail older than 5/31/2011 and save it to your Lotus Notes archive. Faculty can request that this data be migrated to their Google account after the migration project has completed.
Check out the Timeline Rollout to see when your school/department's data is scheduled to migrate. When your school or department is scheduled to migrate, prior to the migration, your Google account will be created. You will still have access to your Lotus Notes accounts for viewing while your data is migrating. Until your VCU Google account has been created you should continue to use your Lotus Notes email.
How much email will migrate from Lotus Notes to Google Gmail?
How do I access my old Lotus Notes archived email that did not migrate?
Your older (archived) emails will still be available in your archive database, from either the Lotus Notes client or VCU Mail Anywhere. You will not be able to access your old archived email through an IMAP Client (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) Use your VCU eID and password to login through VCU Mail Anywhere. Lotus Notes Client users will access archive email as they accessed Lotus Notes email, entering their Lotus Notes password. We will not delete data on the Lotus Notes Servers without approval from the VCU General Counsel's office following state records retention guidelines. We will notify the VCU community well in advance when the decision is made to delete achieved email. Please note the FAQ "How much email will migrate from Lotus Notes to Google Gmail?".
Will Lotus Notes Reminders migrate over to the Google Calendar?
Lotus Notes Reminders will migrate over as a Google calendar event, but will loose the "reminder" distinction. The suggested work-around, prior to the migration of your Lotus Notes account, go into the Reminders in Notes and edit the title to append [Reminder] or what ever makes sense to you. Therefore, when the event migrates from Notes to Google calendar it will have [Remnder] in the title. Once they are migrated to Google you can color-code them to set apart from rest of your Google calendar.
If I have a Lotus Notes Calendar item marked as Private will it still be marked as Private when it migrates to the Google Calendar?
Can I post to a List Serve?
If posting to a List Serve is a problem after your email has moved from Lotus Notes to Google Gmail please send an email to email@example.com describing the issue. An additional feature of Google Apps is Google Reader - which is perfect for subscribing to list serves using an RSS feed! You may find this from your new Google account by selecting More - Even More at the top left.
What is the future of Blackberry Enterprise Server support at VCU given the move to Google Apps? (UPDATED - 9/11/2012)
A Blackberry Enterprise Server with Google Connector for Blackberry has been installed. This will provide email, calendar and contact synching for Google Apps users for those migrated to Google. If you have migrated to Google and are currently using Google Sync with your Blackberry, please contact Dr. Gee for assistance with migrating to Google Connector for Blackberry. This service is provided it will only be for the Blackberry Operating System Version 9 or prior. We will not provide for OS10 devices. You may still connect to your email via an internet email connection with Blackberry Internet Service (BIS) service.
Will the VCU Leave Request System in Notes be available in Google Apps?
VCU Leave Request System will not be available in Google Apps but the VCU Leave Request System is currently available from the web (http://ts.vcu.edu/askit/email/vcu-leave-request-system/) to create and approve leave request. Timekeepers will continue to use Lotus Notes to access their views. Plans are to upgrade the design to a web-access only app later this year.
How will generic accounts from Lotus Notes be migrated to VCU Google Apps? (UPDATED)
Lotus Notes generic accounts will not be migrated until the faculty/staff migration has been completed, as this is the first priority. The migration team understands that many generic accounts work with applications, like ImageNow, and will be mindful of those situations when the generic accounts are migrated. Each generic account will be reviewed to determine if a generic account, Google Group, or Google calendar is most appropriate in terms of how the account is set up in the Google Apps domain.
Will I be able to manage multiple generic accounts from my Gmail account after the generic accounts migrate?
Yes. The account manager must provide permission to allow Gmail delegation to the account. After permission is granted, you may set up Gmail Delegation to access the account. This video demonstrates the delegation process, http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/enterprisetraining/gapps/aa/gmaildel/delgating_gmail_021110.mov . Please note the FAQ: "How will generic accounts from Lotus Notes be migrated to VCU Google Apps?".
What's the @gapps.vcu.edu or @apps.vcu.edu address I sometimes see in email lists?
The email address email@example.com or email@example.com is the address used internally to route mail to your Google Apps account. You should always choose the @vcu.edu address when picking a user from the Google contact list.
Will Affiliate Accounts be created automatically?
Affiliate accounts will no longer be created automatically as was the case with Lotus Notes. Affiliate account creates can be created either by submitting an email to Doctor Gee or with a Remedy Ticket.
Accessing Google Apps at VCU after your account has been created
What is appsforVCU powered by Google?
How do I log in to my apps.vcu.edu Google Apps account?
Why is the Google domain for VCU students different then the domain for VCU faculty and staff?
There are different Commonwealth of Virginia record retention requirements for faculty and staff related to the requirements for students.
Can I use VCU Google Apps if I already have a personal Gmail account?
Yes. A VCU Google Apps for Education account (firstname.lastname@example.com) will be created for you through Google Apps at VCU. This article describes conflicting accounts and how they will behave during the move to Google. Please read this page and unlink references from your personal gmail account to your VCU email address (https://sites.google.com/a/vcu.edu/gonegoogle/your-first-days-0).
I do not seem to be receiving all of my emails after the migration has completed?
Please read the information about Google Message Security to see if the email(s) are being quarantined and how to request it to be released.
MCV Hospital Lotus Notes
What email address do I use to email a VCU employee with a VCU Google Gmail account?
The VCU email will not change with the migration from Lotus Notes to Google Apps. If your email is email@example.com, it will still be after the transition. There will be no change regarding how redirection is done for those hospital employees who have @mcvh-vcu.edu as their primary accounts. Mail delivery to firstname.lastname@example.com will still be in place.
Can calendar invites be sent and received between the MCV Hospital Lotus Notes system and VCU Google Apps system?
Will an administrative assistant be able to view both calendars used by their faculty/chairs as they did with Lotus Notes?
Will the VCU Google apps users be able to look up VCUHS accounts in the Gmail contacts?
No. The VCU address book will contain only VCU employees at this time.
How will 'dual role' employees (VCU and Hospital employee) email accounts work that have VCU Lotus Notes accounts that forward to the hospital?
This process is being evaluated with the new Google Apps system. No definite answer at this time.

I consider my naturally curly hair both a gift and a curse. When my hair decides to behave in its natural state, it is a huge mane of defined, bouncy curls that I positively revel in, but when my hair decides to act up, it become a pouf of frizz or a saddened state of lifeless curls that I cannot wait to get rid of.
Usually whenever my hair does act up, it is mostly due to the styling (products) I chose to use. Either the product was too heavy and weighed my hair down or not hydrating enough and caused my curls to transform into a ball of frizz. Rarely do I ever use just one product to style my curly hair. A couple to a few products are usually required to get those bouncy, shiny, hydrated curls that I always desire. Read more

New Orleans Saints tight end Jimmy Graham is now a pitchman for Degree men's deodorant.
Graham tweeted out a link to a 30-second commercial that was posted to Youtube on Monday. Graham is also featured prominently in visual advertising on Degree Men social media profiles.
In the ad, Graham says, "Everything can be improved. Every block can be stronger, every catch harder to defend. We all do things we love, and when we improve the way we do them, it feels amazing."
Degree, in case you missed the connection, is improving its deodorant. The narrator takes a swipe at Old Spice just as Graham is dabbing his underarms with Degree.
Graham is part of the brand's "DO:MORE" campaign, and he was featured for his "relentless drive to always improve and do more."
Graham signed a four-year contract with the Saints last month that included a $12.5 million signing bonus. His hobby of flying was featured on the cover of Men's Journal.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – "Beyonce Embarazada" exclaimed Latin American news with fotos headlining newspapers Monday. Many news publications across Latin America thought Beyonce's pregnancy stole the MTV 2011 VMAs show, one exclaiming this morning "embarazo de Beyoncé se robó el show". But unlike U.S. press that simply reported her pregnancy, Beyonce's stunning performance, and the bro-embrace between Kanye West and Jay-Z, international news exclaimed celebrations today with front page cover stories.
After her performance last night, Beyonce took off her oversized jacket. She turned profile and rubbed her stomach. Without saying a word, Beyonce showed America that she is pregnant. For many who had not seen the black carpet arrivals, the pregnancy news came as a surprise during the main telecast. Latin American news reported how "Beyonce se tocaba el abdomen" after the performance and the pride that Jay-Z showed when the cameras cut him alongside Kanye West.
Beyonce Pregnant Pictures
Beyonce Pregnant Photo 1
Beyonce Pregnant Photo 2
Well taken pictures from Latin American news showed handlers on the white carpet fixing Beyonce's large and stunning dress, from the bottom. The handlers attempted to insure that the picture would depict the pregnancy clearly for the camera.
Beyonce recently told CNN that she wanted to be pregnant by age 30. She and Jay-Z married secretly in April 2008. The couple went weeks without ever admitting that they were married. This time around, they have been very open about the pregnancy. This is the couple's first child. Recently, Kanye West and Jay-Z sold 436,000 albums their first week with Watch The Throne.

Largest corporate grant in organization's 18-year history will support educational program at Gateway Mercy orphanage
Richardson, TX – Promise International announced that it has received a $200,000 grant over three years from the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Alcatel-Lucent, to provide support for the educational program at Promise International's Gateway Mercy orphanage in Kampala, Uganda. This is the largest grant awarded to Promise International since its inception in 1992.
"Alcatel-Lucent and Promise International share a strong dedication to empowering our youth, both locally and globally, based on a strong educational foundation. This focus is one of the pillars of our program at Gateway Mercy orphanage. We are working to go beyond providing the basics of food, clothing, and shelter for the children because we know long-term success and sustainment is rooted in a quality education and the acquisition of certain life-skills. And it is this understanding that makes the Alcatel-Lucent grant so remarkably perfect for Promise International. We will use this grant to lay the foundation for our educational goals," said Lisa Irwin, Promise International's Board of Directors Chairman.
"A focus area for the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation is education and training for young people, and Promise International's program focused on educational and life-skills development is one that we enthusiastically support," said Beatrice Tassot, Executive Director of the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation. "Giving students a solid education — starting in their primary school years — will serve them well in their adult life by establishing the necessary foundation upon which they can grow and compete in the job market."
Gateway Mercy was founded by Jovia Nakabuye, an Ugandan woman who came to America to earn money to educate her children. Upon returning to Uganda in 2002, she began to take in neighborhood children, many of whom had no homes or relatives to care for them, creating a small orphanage and school. Mrs. Nakabuye passed away in 2006, but her family has carried on her work and is involved in running the orphanage, which now cares for more than 80 children. The partnership between Promise International and Alcatel-Lucent, which employees approximately 50-people in Kampala, spans a three-year period. In addition to the funding, Alcatel-Lucent personnel are already volunteering their time to teach at the orphanage.
"Under the leadership of Raphael Trommer (Alcatel-Lucent Branch Manager in Kampala), Alcatel-Lucent personnel have displayed remarkable compassion and a willingness to assist the orphanage's children," Ms. Irwin noted. "From French classes to computer training, their work at Gateway Mercy not only provides valuable educational skills, but also critical role-modeling behavior and encouragement for the children."
"The work with Promise International is a perfect fit for us," adds Tassot. "Our mission to target underserved communities with access to education and life skills programs is clearly consistent with what Promise International is doing in Uganda. We look forward to the progress we can make there over the next three years."

About Promise International
Promise International is a unique charitable organization that is successfully cultivating Uganda's future. Driven by faith, passion, and a personal connection to Uganda, we provide for the country's most vulnerable citizens–impoverished, abandoned orphans and other needy children in both rural and urban areas. While our primary focus is providing a safe/loving environment, and a quality education to these children, we strive to do more for more than supply the basics of food, shelter, and clothing. We seek to develop the next generation of Ugandan leadership by equipping these disadvantaged young people with a solid education, vocational skills, and the tools to become self-supporting, contributing members of their society. http://promiseinternational.org/

Alison Sweeney, who played Sami Brady on NBC's Days of our Lives and left the show back in May will ow be directing a GH episode. Being a motherhood, hosting the Biggest Loser, and being an author will not stop her from putting on another hat.
Frank Valentini GH's EP told Soap Opera Digest that after Sweeney had observed his directing team he asked her to join them! "She's sort of paid her dues and spent some time learning the show," so when an opening presented itself, "I asked her if she was available and she said yes." Sweeney will direct her first episode this month!
Alison had previously directed some episodes at Days of our Lives and so will be directing episodes for GH in the future. She tweeted her response , when asked if she was going to direct for GH, Ali tweeted: "Super psyched. Working on the scripts right no
Could Sweeney be tempted to step in front of the camera at GH? How would Ali fit in, in Port Charles? Can you imagine a cast of super women like Laura Wright (Carly), Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis), Jane Elliot (Tracy)and Michelle Stafford (Nina), Maura West (Ava), Alison Sweeney. Who would take the prime spot do you think. What a catfight that could produce.

[This is a guest post by Margaret Brill, Librarian for Britain/Ireland, Canada, Australasia, World History and Medieval/Renaissance Studies]
The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29th has provoked widespread interest in the British Monarchy here in the USA, and even in the Duke community. A frequent question is "Why doesn't The Queen step down so Prince Charles can be King?" Some people even wonder why they don't pass over Prince Charles altogether in favor of Prince William, presumably because Prince William is younger and hunkier. Then there is the question of Prince Charles' wife Camilla. Can she be Queen? Will he be King if she can't? In this blog entry I will attempt to answer these questions and suggest some resources for people who would like to learn more about the monarchy.
The British monarchy is known as a constitutional monarchy. This means that, while The Sovereign is Head of State, the ability to make and pass legislation resides with an elected Parliament. So Britain (or The United Kingdom as it is officially called) is also a democracy. The constitutional foundation for the monarchy today is based on the Act of Settlement of 1701, which was designed to secure the Protestant succession to the throne, and to strengthen the guarantees for ensuring a parliamentary system of government. The Act addressed the dynastic and religious aspects of succession, and it also further restricted the powers and prerogatives of the Crown. It reinforced the Bill of Rights of 1689 which made monarchy clearly conditional on the will of Parliament and provided a freedom from arbitrary government. The Act also provided that judges were to hold office on good conduct and not at Royal pleasure – thus establishing judicial independence.
Therefore the succession is not a question of choice on the part of the Monarch but is laid down in the British Constitution and as the oldest son of the reigning Monarch Prince Charles will succeed his mother and become King on her death. There is no precedent or reason why she would abdicate unless she was unable to perform the duties of Head of State. One of these duties is to be the titular Head of the Church of England, which is an established church. Since the Church of England still doesn't recognize the remarriage of divorced persons Camilla cannot be Queen unless Parliament changes the canon law of the Church of England but she could still be the King's wife with a suitable title. After all, Prince Philip, the Queen's husband, is not King. I do not believe Prince Charles would step down if Camilla were not given the title of Queen. Whether he is popular or not does not affect the succession. Unless he does something unconstitutional (such as interfere in politics) there would be no reason for Parliament to remove him. Anyone in line of succession to the throne has to get permission to marry or lose their place in line. Prince Charles was given permission by the government to marry Camilla Parker-Bowles, whereas King Edward VIII was not allowed to marry Wallis Simpson in 1936, which led to his abdication. In some ways the Royals have less personal freedom than their subjects.
How relevant is the monarchy today? As you can see from the above the British constitution depends on the Monarch to be Head of State, as do the countries in the Commonwealth Realm, including Canada and Australia, so it would be very complicated to abolish the monarchy. Moreover, much of the tradition and ceremonial tourists enjoy so much in Britain is associated with the Monarchy so many feel that the cost is justified.
For more information about the British Monarchy see the official website.

To the Campus Community:
It is with great sorrow that I write to inform the campus community that beloved head coach of the Stony Brook Seawolves Men's and Women's Swimming and Diving Team, David Alexander, passed away early yesterday morning after a long battle with cancer.
Dave's 32 years of coaching at Stony Brook firmly establishes him as the longest serving coach in our Athletics Department. He arrived at Stony Brook in 1979, and became omnipresent at University Pool ever
since. Dave started the women's swimming and diving program in 1979 and was appointed head coach of the men's team in 1995. He saw the team through the transition from a Division III athletic program to a Division I athletic program, and with his teams, experienced many years of success including when the team won its 300th overall meet under his leadership during 2007-2008 season.
Throughout his tenure, more than 100 women swimmers earned All-Metropolitan Conference accolades, four have been named All-Americans and more than 20 qualified to compete in the NCAA Championships. He coached seven seasons in which the women's team recorded ten or more victories. It took Dave only three seasons to lead the men's team to its first Division I/II MET Conference title. His best overall season with the men's program was in 1998-99, when he guided the Seawolves to a 10-6 mark.
Dave received many accolades for his dedicated work with the swimming and diving teams. He was named the Metropolitan Conference's Division I/II Men's Coach of the Year three times (1991, 1996 and 1998); the MET Women's Swimming and Diving Coach of the Year by his peers in 1991; and, his staff was named the America East Coaching Staff of the year in 2005-06. He was also twice named Female Athletics Coach of the Year at Stony Brook.
Most recently Dave was honored by the Department of Athletics at its annual Awards Ceremony on May 7 where he received the Courage Award, given to a member of Stony Brook Athletics who has overcome personal tragedy or serious injury and has demonstrated uncommon bravery in the face of adversity. At the event, a video montage was shown with personal messages from current and former students that truly captures the tremendous impact Dave had on his student athletes during his many years of coaching. (Access video at http://youtu.be/8oHTfkmOYFA)
On behalf of the entire university community, I extend deep condolences to the Alexander Family. Dave will be truly missed. We share a solemn grief with his wife, children, friends, and his current and former students as we all are terribly saddened at the news of this tremendous loss.
Honoring the wishes of his family, in lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Stony Brook Seawolves Men's and Women's Swimming and Diving Teams.

The All-Star Game between the national team SMART-Gilas Pilipinas and the PBA All-Star Selection ended with a draw game 124-all.
The result was not that shocking as the game was very tight all throughout the night. The PBA Selection would score a run at some point and Gilas would come back to tie or take the advantage. There were ten deadlocks in the game and 18 lead changes, something everyone would expect for an all-star game.
Arwind Santos performed all-out that night, scoring 17 points in the first half, and notching game-highs 27 points and 13 rebounds, along with 2 steals. Those numbers earned the PBA All-Star a co-Most Valuable Player award with Gilas' Jeff Chan who collected 9 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists and a dagger three-pointer to tie the game with 0.6 seconds left on game clock.
Larry Fornacier, Gary David, LA Tenorio, Sonny Thoss, and Marc Pingris also played well for the national team, all scoring in double-digits. Ranidel de Ocampo scored 14 points for the Gilas but was most remembered with his shot that made the ball stuck on the rim.
KG Canaleta, Beau Belga, Alex Cabagnot, Calvin Abueva, Chris Ellis, Jayvee Casio and Cyrus Baguio backed up Santos by putting up huge numbers for the PBA All-Star.
PBA All-Stars 124 — Santos 27, Canaleta 20, Belga 15, Cabagnot 15, Ellis 9, Baguio 9, Abueva 9, Casio 7, Lassiter 6, Caguioa 3, Yap 2,
