The infamous list of 16 FDA-‘banned’ diets

I recently had a pet owner come in and ask me what I knew about the list of FDA-banned diets for dogs. I felt I’d better not be behind the times, so time to do some research. I took a quick trip to the FDA’s website and found the article to which all the hub-bub was linked. What I found was that the FDA did not ban any diets but did list 16 brands of dog food that were linked to 500 cases of a heart condition called dilatory cardiomyopathy, or DCM for short. The study ran from 2014 to 2019. I will not list the 16 diets, but they can be found on the FDA’s official website in the report. I need to start with a disclaimer that there is no current evidence to link grain-free diets and heart disease, but here’s what we know so far: New studies have found that some dogs on grain-free diets are more at risk for canine DCM. DCM is a heart condition where the heart muscle becomes thin and the heart dilates, or the chambers of the heart expand. Unfortunately, as the heart dilates, the heart becomes an inefficient pump and the patient goes into heart failure. The

lung and abdomen then fill with fluid, making it impossible to breathe and, without treatment, is fatal. Even with treatment the patient’s life span is reduced dramatically. Why would grain-free diets cause this? The link seems to be taurine. Taurine is an amino acid, or building block of protein, that is essential for normal heart function. It is found in higher concentrations in muscle of animals including red meats, poultry and seafood. Plants contain very little to no taurine. The lowest concentrations of taurine are found in legumes (peas, chick peas), potatoes and other plants. Some dog foods are supplemented with taurine and some are not. In 2018, A study led by Dr. Joshua Stern (a veterinary cardiologist at the University of California-Davis School of Veterinary Medicine) found a higher number of DCM in golden retrievers. Stern also discovered that many of these patients were on a grain-free diet and had abnormally low taurine levels. In June of 2019 the FDA released a report that found 500 cases of DCM related to 16 diets. Golden retrievers were the most common breed affected. All of the diets listed were labeled “grain free” or contained legumes. An actual link between grain-free diets and DCM has not been definitively established, but research is ongoing and I will update everyone as soon as I have more information. Dr. Kearns practices veterinary medicine from his Port Jefferson office and is pictured with his son Matthew and his dog Jasmine. Have a question for the vet?

Karen Silvestri of Melville snapped this photo of an egret that has been living in Oceanside for many years and is known to the locals as Earl. She writes, “Earl will let people photograph him without flying away. I used a zoom lens to capture this photo but for a bird of this species he was still close to me. Earl was about 20 feet away, which is surprisingly close for an egret, when I took this photo on July 27.”

HELPING YOU NAVIGATE TO OPTIMAL HEALTH

David Dunaief, M.D. Integrative Medicine

• A Whole Body Approach • Reversing, Preventing & Treating Chronic Disease and Managing Weight by Connecting Conventional Medicine with Lifestyle Modifications Our Philosophy is simple. We believe wellness is derived through nutritional medicine and lifestyle interventions that prevent and treat chronic diseases. Medications have their place - and in some cases can be lifesaving. However, there’s no medication without side effects. The goal should be to limit the need for medications - or minimize the number of medications you take on a regular basis. You are not limited by your genes. Fortunately, most diseases are based primarily on epigenetics, which are environmental influences, and not on genetics. Epigenetics literally means above or around the gene. In epigenetics, lifestyle choices impact gene expression. Just because your first degree relatives may have had a disease, you are not predestined to follow suit. We are specialists who will partner with your primary care physician. A standard medical education does not integrate enough nutritional medicine and other lifestyle interventions. We bridge that gap.

We use evidence-based medicine to guide our decision-making. The amount of research related to nutrition and other lifestyle issues continues to grow rapidly, with many studies showing significant beneficial effects on health.

Preventing and Reversing Chronic Conditions and Diseases Including:

Is disease reversal possible? Absolutely! Study evidence has found this to be true, and many of our patients have experienced reversal of diabetes, autoimmune disorders, migraines, and cardiovascular disease, just to mention a few. In many cases, because of their exceptional results, our patients have been able to reduce or eliminate their medications.

Tackling cardiovascular disease

NEWS AROUND TOWN

Lifestyle changes put you in control

Even though cardiovascular disease has been on the decline, it is still the number one killer of Americans, responsible for almost 30 percent of deaths per year (1). Let’s start with a quiz of your cardiovascular disease IQ. The questions below are either true or false. The answers and By David evidence are provided Dunaief, M.D. after.

1. Fish oil supplements help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. 2. Fiber has significant beneficial effects on heart disease prevention. 3. Unlike sugary sodas and drinks, diet soda is most likely not a contributor to this disease. 4. Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to cardiovascular disease. Now that was not so difficult. Or was it? The answers are as follows: 1-F, 2-T, 3-F, 4-T. Regardless of whether you know the answers, the reasons are even more important to know. Let’s look at the evidence.

Fish oil

There is a whole industry built around fish oil and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Yet the data don’t seem to confirm this theory. In the age-related eye disease study 2 (AREDS2), unfortunately, 1 gram of fish oil (long chain omega-3 fatty acids) daily did not demonstrate any benefit in the prevention of cardiovascular disease nor its resultant mortality (2). This study was done over a five-year period in the elderly with macular degeneration. The cardiovascular primary endpoint was a tangential portion of the ophthalmic AREDS2. This does not mean that fish, itself, falls into that same category, but for now there does not seem to be a need to take fish oil supplements for heart disease, except potentially for those with very high triglycerides. Fish oil, at best, is controversial; at worst, it has no benefit with cardiovascular disease.

Fiber

We know that fiber tends to be important for a number of diseases, and cardiovascular disease does not appear to be an exception. In a meta-analysis involving 22 observational studies, the results showed a linear relationship between fiber intake and a decreased risk for developing cardiovascular disease (3). In other words, for every 7 grams of fiber consumed, there was a 9 percent reduced risk of developing the disease. It did not matter

the source of the fiber from plant foods; vegetables, grains and fruit all decreased the risk of cardiovascular disease. This did not involve supplemental fiber, like that found in Fiber One or Metamucil. To give you an idea about how easy it is to get a significant amount of fiber, one cup of lentils has 15.6 grams of fiber, one cup of raspberries or green peas has almost 9 grams and one medium-size apple has 4.4 grams. Americans are sorely deficient in fiber (4).

Diet soda

Analysis of the Northern Manhattan study, a population-based study of 4,400 adults in New York City suggests that daily diet soda intake may increase the risk of heart disease and other cardiovascular events, such as stroke (5). In those drinking diet soda daily, there was an increased likelihood they experienced a cardiovascular event, such as a stroke or heart attack during the study period. These results took into account confounding factors like smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity. Interestingly, the same effect was not found with lower levels of diet soda or sugared soda consumption.

Vitamin D

The results of an observational study in the elderly suggest that vitamin D deficiency may be associated with cardiovascular disease risk.

The study showed that those whose vitamin D levels were low had increased inflammation, demonstrated by elevated biomarkers including C-reactive protein (CRP) (6). This biomarker is related to inflammation of the heart, though it is not as specific as one would hope.

What have we learned?

Study after study has shown benefit with fiber. So if you want to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, consume as much whole food fiber as possible. While the effects of diet soda are still being studied, early results suggest we should limit or eliminate our intake. Also, since we live in the Northeast, consider taking at least 1,000 IUs of vitamin D daily. This is a simple way to help thwart the risk of the number one killer.

free of such oversight. In most cases, people who are not named as beneficiaries in the trust are not even required to be given notice of the grantor’s death. That means that trust assets can be distributed without notice to your family. If you do not want to transfer assets into a trust, you can execute a will that explicitly states that you do not want the family members identified in the will to share in your estate. While some people believe leaving a nominal amount of money to the people they do not want to inherit will convince them not to contest their will, that strategy rarely works. If someone would be entitled to $50,000 if a will was denied probate, it is unlikely that they will accept $10 to simply walk away. It is important to note that only certain family members have the right to contest a will. If you have children, for example, they could contest your will because, if you died without a will, they would be in line to inherit. In that case, your siblings could not contest your will because your children have priority. Your siblings could only contest your will if you die without a spouse, parents or children. When deciding how to proceed with your estate plan, it will be helpful to understand the circumstances under which certain family members can try to recover against your estate. If you are serious about protecting your estate from your family, you should consult with an experienced estate planning attorney. Working with an attorney who regularly deals with the issue of estranged family members is the best way to ensure that your estate plan will meet your needs. Linda M. Toga, Esq. provides legal services in the areas of estate planning, real estate, small business services and litigation from her East Setauket office.

THE FACTS: I have been estranged from my family for many years. I want to be sure that family members are not able to inherit from my estate THE QUESTION: Is that possible? THE ANSWER: While you cannot BY LINDA TOGA, ESQ. disinherit your spouse, you can certainly take steps to prevent your siblings, children, cousins and other blood relatives from getting a share of your estate. However, keep in mind that even if they are not successful in inheriting from your estate, certain relatives can try to recover against your estate if you do not plan properly. Defeating claims against your estate could be time consuming and costly. HOW IT WORKS: You did not mention whether you were married and, if so, whether you were estranged from your spouse as well as from other family members. If you do have a spouse, she will be entitled to a share of your estate upon your death regardless of what you may do with your assets. Spouses have a statutory right of election that entitles the surviving spouse to one-third of most of their deceased spouses’ assets, even if those assets are jointly held or are in a trust. Getting a divorce or getting your spouse to waive her spousal rights are the only options you have for defeating any claim she may make against your estate. As for other family members, you can ensure that they do not get a share of your estate if you transfer all of our assets into a trust. Unlike a will that is subject to court oversight upon your death, a trust is generally

FEATURE STORY

Port Jefferson Documentary Series celebrates 25th season

BY HEIDI SUTTON

his past July, the Port Jefferson Documentary Series held a special screening of Woodstock: Three Days That Defined a Generation at Theatre Three. The community came out in droves to reminisce and celebrate the 50th anniversary of Woodstock. As wonderful as it was, the sold-out event was just a prelude of what was to come. From Sept. 9 to Oct. 28, the series will kick off its 25th season of presenting the latest award-winning documentaries to the community. Sponsored by the Greater Port Jefferson-Northern Brookhaven Arts Council and the Suffolk County Office of Film and Cultural Affairs, the first film will be screened at the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook, the next five at Theatre Three in Port Jefferson and the final film at Stony Brook University’s Charles B. Wang Center. Each screening will be followed by a Q&A session with guest speakers including directors, producers, the movies’ subjects and outside experts. It is a labor of love for film board members Lyn Boland, Barbara Sverd, Wendy Feinberg, Honey Katz, Phyllis Ross, Lorie Rothstein and Lynn Rein, who each choose one film out of hundreds to present to the audience. This fall’s picks were selected after the “film ladies” attended the Tribeca Film Festival, DOC NYC and the Hamptons Film Festival. This season’s exciting lineup includes, in order of appearance, Halston, which examines the life and career of fashion designer Roy Halston Frowick; Clean Hands, the heartbreaking and eye-opening story of a Central American family living in extreme poverty; The Raft, a 1973 scientific experiment on the high seas that went horribly wrong; Cold Case Hammarskjöld, a journalistic inquiry into the 1961 plane-crash death of Dag Hammarskjöld, the secretary-general of the United Nations; Kifaru, the emotional story of Sudan, the world’s only remaining male northern white rhino; Gay Chorus, Deep South, which follows the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus’s bus tour through the deep South to confront a resurgence of faith-based anti-LGBTQ laws; and Mike Wallace Is Here, which examines the 50-year career of “60 Minutes’” fearsome newsman Mike Wallace. In terms of which films will tug at your heart strings the most, Lyn Boland says it’s a tie between Kifaru and Gay Mens Chorus, Deep South, “depending on where your sympathies lie, but they are on opposite sides of the spectrum.” According to Boland, who serves as codirector with Sverd and Feinberg, this season’s program has been drawing rave reviews. “I have had people say ‘this is an amazing

lineup.’ I think one of the reasons is that this season covers a really broad spectrum: we have fashion, we have a diplomatic mystery, the environment, a gay position, journalism (and the importance of journalism), and The Raft which is just so unusual. What’s so remarkable about this lineup is the breadth of subject matter – there is something for everyone.” As always, the ﬁlm ladies invite the community to “come for the ﬁlm, stay for the talk” as the Q&As can get quite lively. The Port Jefferson Documentary Series will be held at 7 p.m. on select Monday nights from Sept. 9 to Oct. 28. Tickets, which are sold at the door, are $8 per person. (No credit cards please.) If you would like to volunteer, please call 631-473-5200. For more information, visit www.portjeffdocumentaryseries.com.

Dragon Boat Race Festival roars into Port Jefferson

Dragons will roar on the North Shore once again as The Greater Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce hosts the 6th annual Port Jefferson Dragon Boat Race Festival on Saturday, Sept. 14 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The free event will take place at Mayor Jeanne Garant Harborfront Park, 101A E. Broadway, Port Jefferson and the village’s inner harbor. The festival is the brainchild of Barbara Ransome, director of operations at the chamber, who attended a dragon boat race festival in Cape May, New Jersey, a few years ago. Opening ceremonies will begin at 8:30 a.m. and include a performance by the Asian Veterans Color Guard, singing of the national anthem by Peggy Yin, a Blessing of the Dragon and the traditional “Eye Dotting” ceremony to awaken the dragon. This year’s event will consist of 27 teams with dragon boats provided by High Five Dragon Boat Co. With the first race scheduled for 9 a.m., boat teams will compete on a 250-meter, three-lane racing course. Each team is made up of 20 “paddlers,” one steersman and one drummer. Heats will run all day, culminating in an awards ceremony at 5 p.m. All race teams will have their own “encampment” along Harborfront Park as they are queuing up for their races. Team contests for the best team T-shirt and best costumed drummer will be judged in the middle of the day. Spectators can easily view the race course from the park’s edge and pier. In addition to the races, there will be a daylong festival featuring numerous performances including the famous Lion Dance, Taiko and Korean Drum performances, martial arts demonstrations and Asian singing and instrumentals. There will be many cultural and educational vendors and retailers as well. New this year the best “drumming performance” sponsored by Taiko Tides and two new dragon statues. Six food trucks will be on hand offering American, Italian, Chinese dishes as well as empanadas, smoothies and barbecue options.

Children’s activities will be in abundance with traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy, origami, kite making, trick yo-yo demonstrations and face painting. Adults can enjoy free chair massages, as well as free health screenings. Free shuttle buses provided by the Port Jeff Jitney will make frequent stops on Oakland Avenue next to the Port Jefferson train station, the CVS parking lot on Barnum Avenue and the northeast corner of Belle Terre Road and Myrtle Avenue to bring eventgoers to the Port Jefferson Village Center from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Special thanks to this year’s sponsors, which include Murphy’s Marine Service-PJ Sea Tow, Incorporated Port Jefferson Village, Port Jefferson Yacht Club, Harbor Ballet Theatre, and the Port Jefferson Ambulance Suffolk County School Crossing Guards, the Confucius Institute of Stony Brook, NY Community Bank-Roslyn Savings Division, News 12, Jet Sanitation, Island Federal Union, TBR News Media, Danfords-Hotel Marina & Spa & The Waterview-Crest Hospitality, The Gitto Group, Peoples United Bank, PSEG and Servpro of Port Jefferson.

COOKING COVE

A chicken in every pot, on every grill, in every oven Oven-Fried Chicken

YIELD: Makes 3 to 4 servings INGREDIENTS: • One 3½-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces • 3 cups buttermilk • 1½ cups unseasoned breadcrumbs • 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley or oregano • 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme • Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste DIRECTIONS:

Oven-Fried Chicken Stock photo

ou’re probably wondering why I hardly ever write about chicken. In fact, several people have asked me that, and I can answer only that there are so many chicken recipes in magazines and cookbooks and on the internet that it’s seemed superfluous. However, a recent menu planning experience has convinced me otherwise. At my wit’s end to accommodate those who didn’t eat red meat or were allergic to fish, I found myself scouring my files for recipes and realized that there’s always such a good old standby whose myriad ways of preparation have rescued many a cook, tantalized many a guest and certainly saved the day for me. There are three recipes here: one for the cook top, one for the grill and one for the oven, so depending on the weather, your mood and what else you have on hand, you can choose your preparation. That’s the great thing about chicken; there are so many ways to prepare it that you can’t go wrong. In fact, I think I’m going to do a column on chicken more often.

Summer Chicken Stew

YIELD: Makes 3 to 4 servings INGREDIENTS: • One 3½-pound chicken cut into 8 pieces • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste • Flour for dredging • ½ cup olive oil • 1 medium onion, diced • 1 small eggplant, diced • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, diced • ¼ cup chopped flat-leaf parsley • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or basil • 2 large fresh tomatoes, diced • 2 garlic cloves, minced • ¾ cup dry white wine

DIRECTIONS:

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge it in flour. In a large skillet, heat ¼ cup oil over medium heat. Fry chicken, turning pieces once, until both sides are golden; remove to large saucepan. Discard oil and add remaining ¼ cup oil to pan; add onion, eggplant, bell pepper and herbs and saute stirring frequently, over medium heat until softened, about 10 minutes. Transfer to saucepan with chicken, add tomatoes, garlic and wine and mix thoroughly. Simmer, covered, stirring occasionally and adding ½ cup water at a time, if needed, until chicken and veggies are done, about 45 minutes. Serve with orzo and a summer lettuce salad.

turning occasionally, until skin is crispy and slightly charred and juices run clear when thigh is pierced with a knife, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with tomatoes and mozzarella cheese and corn on the cob.

BOOK REVIEW

‘Long Island State Hospitals’ By Joseph M. Galante

History Reviewed by Leah Chiappino

Above, common features at all the state hospitals were the ornate stone buildings and neatly manicured grounds. The early 1900s image shows one of the buildings at Kings Park State Hospital in its heyday. Right, the cover of Galante’s book. Images courtesy of Arcadia Publishing

any Long Islanders have come to think of the former state psychiatric hospitals as mere eyesores, or frankly nuisances, as they are often sites for horror seekers and rebellious teenagers to trespass. However, as told by Joseph M. Galante, a former state hospital worker, in his new book “Long Island State Hospitals,” the mental health facilities were once practically their own metropolis. The book is a part of the Images of America series from Arcadia Publishing. In the late 1800s, the city of New York transferred a few dozen patients to what was then called the St. Johnland farm colony, in hopes they would benefit from an outdoor experience. Another facility was opened in Central Islip, and in 1931 Pilgrim State was constructed to house the growing population of the mentally ill on Long Island. The intake grew so large that Pilgrim State holds the record for the world’s largest psychiatric facility, with nearly 15,000 patients by 1955. Galante states the hospital’s principles focused on moral therapy, and they are “remembered for their legacy of humility, beneficence and a devotion to the mentally ill.” He assures readers practices like electrotherapy were only used in extreme cases, contrary to

Ultimately, the book shows a refreshing portrait of three institutions that were such an instrumental part of Long Island’s history. the commonly held belief that the patients were treated inhumanely. This seems to be true from the beginning of its history. The St. Johnland facility had its name changed to Kings Park in 1891 and in 1898 graduated its first class of nurses. By then, each hospital had many independent medical surgical buildings, stores, powerhouses, a full-scale farm and ward buildings. The institutions became so self-sustainable that they produced as much as two-thirds of the food consumed there. The Kings Park facility even had what they called York Hall, where patients would watch movies, play basketball, perform shows and attend functions. The facility also had its own water tower, railroad station, space for masonry work, independent fire and police force and the Veterans Memorial Hospital, which was a group of 17 buildings used to treat veterans that came home from World War I with mental conditions.

The staff at Kings Park provided 24-hour care to patients and worked 12-hour days, 6 days a week prior to the start of the 20th century. Men earned between $20 and $40 a month, while women earned between $14 and $18. They were granted uniforms, rubber coats and boots, food, laundry services, lodging and “chicken and candy every Sunday.” Patients were encouraged to work within the facility, but were not forced. When they were not working, they engaged in social and recreational events, as well as attended medical clinics and occupational and psychiatric therapies. Up until the 1940s, there was an emphasis on dance, music, art and cooperative activities as a form of therapy. Ultimately, the book shows a refreshing portrait of three institutions that were such an instrumental part of Long Island’s history.

Pictures range from the 1925 Kings Park Fireman Squad to a heartwarming photo of nurses at Central Islip celebrating the 105th birthday of a woman with no family who received no visitors for decades. There are also many photos of recreational activities, including a holiday celebration for patients wearing party hats, which masks the ominous bars on the window in the background. Anyone who has ever driven around the Nissequogue River State Park, and has a feeling of curiosity about what was once there should without fail pick up the book, which provides a productive answer to curiosity, without the reader breaking a trespassing ordinance. “Long Island State Hospitals” is available locally where books are sold and online at www. arcadiapublishing.com.

KNOWLEDGE SEEKERS

BNL clears milestone for state-of-the-art telescope

BY DANIEL DUNAIEF

What’s out there? It’s a question that occurs to everyone from parents sleeping at night who hear a noise in the front yard to tourists aboard a whale watching cruise off the coast of Montauk to anyone looking up at the night sky. Scientists at Brookhaven National Laboratory recently took a milestone step in a long journey to understanding objects and forces deep in space when they completed shipment of the last of 21 rafts that will become a part of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, or LSST, in the Cerro Pachón ridge in north central Chile. The rafts will serve as the ﬁlm in a camera that will take images that cover 40 times the area of the moon in a single exposure. The telescope, which will be the world’s largest digital camera for astronomy, will allow researchers and the general public to view asteroids at great distances. It will also provide information about dark energy and dark matter, changes in the night sky over the course of a decade of collecting data, and data that can build on knowledge about the formation and structure of the Milky Way. Paul O’Connor, a senior scientist at BNL’s Instrumentation Division who has worked on the LSST for 17 years, expressed appreciation for the efforts of people ranging from area high schoolers to senior scientists on the project.

‘When the first image was delivered, it was very gratifying to see the system was working.’ — Paul O’Connor

“It was just a joy to see the dedication from everyone to get what needed to be done,” he said in an email. “It takes a team like that to complete a project like this.” The LSST, which is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy, involves researchers from institutions all over the world who have each played a role in moving the unique telescope toward completion.

Harnessing the Technology of our Research Giants

While the rafts that will function as the ﬁlm for the 3.2-gigapixel sensor array are completed, O’Connor will continue to work on commissioning the telescope, which should occur gradually until it begins providing data in October of 2022. O’Connor said the construction of the 21 raft modules containing a total of 200 16-megapixel sensors involved “moments of drama, both good and bad.” The ﬁrst time the team brought the system into its operating temperature range of about 100 degrees below zero Celsius, some of the cool-down behavior “differed from our predictions,” he explained. That required quick thinking to make sure the equipment

wasn’t damaged. This was especially important not only because the operation needed to stay on schedule but also because the rafts are expensive and the team was operating on a budget. “Each of these rafts has an enormous cash value” and involved considerable labor to build, O’Connor added. Bill Wahl, the science raft subsystem manager of the LSST project since 2015, described how one of the challenges involved packing and shipping such sensitive electronic materials. “We came up with a very elegant and somewhat low-cost approach,” he said, which involved shipping these rafts in a pressurized vessel that avoided damage during any shocks in transit.

Behind O’Connor, on the left, is Sean Robinson, a technical associate, who is working on a raft in the clean room, and to the left is mechanical engineer Connor Miraval, whose image is reflected on the focal plane.

The rafts, which each weighs about 25 pounds, had a shipping weight that included protective ﬁxtures of over 100 pounds. Additionally, the BNL team had to deal with cleanliness, as particulates can and did cause problems. Some of the rafts didn’t function the way they should have after shipping. The BNL team went through a complete refurbishing over six months, where they took all the rafts apart and cleaned them. They upgraded the design to limit the amount of particulates, Wahl said. While BNL built the requisite rafts, it has an additional two rafts that can replace any of those in the telescope if necessary.

Horoscopes of the week VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, put your plans in motion and get as many helping hands as you can muster while you’re at it. This will only make the work go that much more quickly. LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Always aim for the gold, Libra. You are in a position right now where you do not have to settle for anything less than the best. Use every tool at your disposal to get what you desire. SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, take a decisive stance on a problem that has been lingering and be confident about the choices you make; otherwise, things will just stall out indefinitely. SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Arguments can turn into bigger battles if someone doesn’t concede their position, Sagittarius. Communication is a key thing for you right now. CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Everything in your life seems to be going in different directions, Capricorn. Seek Pisces’ help as you figure out a way to get everything pointed in the same direction. AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 An idea can grow into something much bigger if you just give it a chance, Aquarius. With a little nurturing, you may see your idea grow into something much bigger. PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 Take a step back from a problem that has been tough to solve, Pisces. There’s nothing you can do right now, so a break makes sense. ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, it is time to take charge. Do not allow obstacles to get in the way of your grand goals. Don’t hold back at all, and attack every project with full force. TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, concentrate on what you already have instead of trying to attain more. When you analyze the things around you, you’ll discover you already have what you need. GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 The more you let your emotions show this week, the more prosperous you can become, Gemini. Try new things, even if they scare you a little. CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, if it seems as though people aren’t taking you as seriously as you’d like, you may have to adjust your tactics a little bit. Perhaps the delivery is just wrong. LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Do not turn down any opportunities that come your way, Leo. Even if they seem like they may not amount to anything, they can get you the kind of exposure that you need right now.

These extra rafts will be stored at the observatory. Along with the challenges and some anxiety from building such sensitive equipment, the instrumentation unit also had several high points. In January of 2017, BNL tested one of the rafts in the clean room. Scientists constructed an image projector and projected that onto the raft with enough detail to show that every pixel was functioning correctly. O’Connor made a printout of that image and taped it to his office door. The day of the successful test was one that the team had been anticipating for “over 10 years. When the first image was delivered, it was very gratifying to see the system was working,” he said. While O’Connor isn’t a cosmologist, he is particularly interested in the search for dark energy. “It has been puzzling the theorists and as experimentalists, we hope to take measurements that will one day lead to a resolution of this fundamental question,” he explained.

Several teams are working on the LSST in different locations. One of them is constructing the telescope in Chile, while another is assembling the camera in California. At this point, technicians have installed about half the rafts into the main camera cryostat. Researchers will conduct a preliminary test before populating the rest of the focal plane with all the rafts later this year, O’Connor explained. As the LSST catalogues four billion galaxies, it will “literally be impossible” to look at these areas item by item. Informatics tools will be necessary to extract all the information, O’Connor said. Wahl suggested that the LSST could become an important educational tool for budding astronomers. “I’m not an astronomer or physicist,” said Wahl, who will become the chief operating officer of an instrumentation group at BNL on Oct. 1, “but from my point of view, what I find absolutely amazing is that everyone relies heavily on Google Earth to look at where they are going. In a similar way, [people] are going to do that in the sky. It’s going to give them the opportunity to be junior astronomers unlike they’ve ever been able to do.” Indeed, the LSST will help people figure out what’s out there.

STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY

Stony Brook’s football team rushed for 247 yards and passed for 196, while the defense held visiting Bryant University Bulldogs to just 38 rushing yards en route to a 35-10 season-opening victory on Aug. 29 at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium. The win marked the 10th in a row at home for the Seawolves (1-0). Senior RB Isaiah White (Gordon Heights) led the ground game with 54 yards and a pair of touchdowns, while junior QB Tyquell Fields (Yonkers) completed 10 passes for 194 yards and a touchdown in his first career start. On the defensive side, senior DB Synceir Malone (Bronx) returned an interception for a touchdown in the first quarter to set the tone. “It was a good team win,” head coach Chuck Priore said. “I thought our kids came out ready to play tonight. We played a ton of kids in the first half and then we came out and took control of the game on the first drive of the second half. Once we got that going I thought we were in good shape and we continued to play a lot of players throughout the second half.” Up next, the Seawolves travel to Utah for the first time in program history to face the Utah State WR Nick Anderson (No. 87) catches a pass during Thursday’s game. Aggies on Sept. 7.

Men’s soccer off to a rough start

The Stony Brook men’s soccer team opened its 2019 campaign with a 1-0 loss to the St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers on Aug. 30 at Brooklyn Bridge Park. On Sept. 2, the team hosted the Penn State Nittany Lions for its home opener but fell 4-1. “I thought our guys responded well in the second half,” head coach Ryan Anatol said. “We made a couple adjustments to deal with their pressure and allow us to have a little more time on the ball.” “I think it’s a good group,” he added. “We know it’s early in the year, we’re still trying to figure out exactly how we want

test how we do with the things that we want to do.” Up next, the Seawolves head to Fairfield University in Connecticut on Sept. 7 to face off with the Fairfield Stags.

The Stony Brook women’s team defeated the Delaware Fightin’ Blue Hens in Newark, 2-1, on Aug. 30. Junior Chase Rome (Mulino, Oregon) started the Seawolves’ scoring in the 19th minute to tie the match at one and classmate Alyssa Francese (Yorktown Heights) made it 2-1 with a point-blank goal in the 48th minute to give Stony Brook all it would need to improve to 3-0-0. Junior Sofia Manner (Helsinki, Finland) made five saves between the posts for the Seawolves. “It is not easy to win away games, especially against a well-coached team like Delaware,” coach Tobias Bischof said. “I’m very proud of the ladies. They played organized and stuck to our game plan and we were able to grind one out against a good CAA opponent.” The team then headed to Philadelphia on Sept. 1 where it was able to generate consistent pressure, but no goals, in a 1-0 loss at the hands of Saint Joseph’s University. “We played against a very well-coached team that doesn’t make a lot of mistakes,” Bischof said. “I appreciate the effort our players gave but we have to give all of the credit to Saint Joseph’s for a professional performance.” Up next, the team hosts the St. John’s University Red Storm on Sept. 5 at 7 p.m.
