Race Car Reality for a Brotha
A request for your assistance in promoting Robert L. Jones (IUL Fall 95) as he makes his way on the Nascar circuit. He's one of the top 50 for being selected for a reality TV show, Racing For a Living. He's asking for brothers to go to the website, and cast a vote for him. The Link is www.racinforalivin.com

SO VOTE FOR ROB JONES. Thanks for your help and help spread the word.

This young brother is originally from Texas, attended Delaware State U, and also an accomplished airline and a fighter pilot in the Air National Guard. He is also the only BROTHER (black dude) in the competition.

Alumni Data Compromised
Attention alumni of Ohio University -- Ohio University has recently experienced two separate and apparently unrelated incidents of data theft. The FBI is investigating both incidents. Alumni information has been stolen including social security numbers. The university has established a Web page at www.ohio.edu/datatheft to provide detailed information for people potentially affected by the theft of information and has established a toll-free hotline at 800-901-2303 or (740) 566-7448 (local calls) for those who were affected or who are uncertain if their information was illegally accessed.
