...mourning (sort of) last weekend after Dartmouth College announced its famed fraternity system would be going coed, I rented "Animal House," the movie inspired by Dartmouth's most rowdy frat, fictionally dubbed Delta Tau Chi.

One of the best scenes involves the bumbling but evil Dean Vernon Wormer calling in the leadership of the less-than-academically inclined Delta House and informing them that because of their poor grades, they have expelled because, unknown to them, they have been on "double-secret probation...
...detection was indirect: what the physicists actually saw was flashes of light caused by fallout from rare but occasional collisions between neutrinos and water molecules. There were fewer flashes than expected from so-called muon neutrinos, suggesting that some of them had changed into another type, called tau neutrinos. Arcane theory dictates that neutrinos can't change form unless they have mass--though scientists can't say precisely what that mass...
...beta amyloid, it is well established, have high rates of Alzheimer's, which lends weight to the beta amyloid theory. But many more people, observes Duke University neurologist Dr. Allen Roses, carry an Alzheimer's-susceptibility gene known as Apo-E4, which produces a protein that appears to affect tau. Individuals who carry two copies of this gene, Roses has shown, have an elevated risk of developing Alzheimer's before age 70. And if they suffer a stroke, warns another report published in last week's J.A.M.A., they are more likely to develop full-blown dementia...
