CEC
Commits $3.28 Million for Research on High-Tech Building
Efficiency
The
California Energy Commission has approved $3.28 million
in funding for scientists and engineers in the Environmental
Energy Technologies Division to conduct energy efficiency
research for a project entitled "High-Performance
High-Tech Buildings/Laboratories, Cleanrooms, and Data
Centers." The research will develop efficiency
benchmarks, design enhancements, and technologies for
high-tech industries. Researchers who will participate
include William Tschudi, Dale Sartor, Geoffrey Bell,
David Faulkner, Bruce Nordman, Evan Mills, and Tim
Xu. Funding comes from the CEC's Public Interest
Energy Research Program. Read more about the research
team here.

A
Voice of Support For
DOE Science, Security
By
Norman R. Augustine
(This opinion piece was written for the Washington
Post by Augustine, retired chairman and CEO of Lockheed
Martin Corp.)
The
end of the Cold War and the "balance of terror"
was supposed to make the world safe, but it seems
merely to have made it safe for a number of wars
of lesser scale to occur. A newly sober America
now finds itself living in a time of multiple threats,
even within its own borders. In this less-than-perfect
world we have once again witnessed the essential
role that science and technology play in improving
our national security and underpinning much of our
economy and standard of living. Full

Bill
Line Would
Force Bid for Labs
By
Andrea Widener
A
provision buried deep within a Congressional funding
bill may do what years of pressure and numerous
scandals could not -- force the University of California
to compete to run Lawrence Livermore Laboratory.
The move in a House funding bill would require the
lab's federal overseer, the Department of Energy,
to put the lab's contract out to bid for the first
time when it expires in September 2005. While this
provision wouldn't apply only to the Livermore lab,
few other sites fit the bill's main requirement
of 50 years without competition. (Berkeley Lab is
exempted from this requirement this time around
because contract negotiations are already under
way). Full

Windows
Users Urged to Get Patch
The
Lab’s Computer Protection Program urges users of Windows
systems (Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP) to install
a security patch to protect against intrusion vulnerabilities.
The patch is available here at the Lab’s "download"
site. Go to the Security/Service Packs section and install
the appropriate post service pack hotfixes for your particular
operating system -- Windows NT 4.0 post SP6a Hot Fixes for
Workstations, Windows NT 4.0 post SP6a Hot Fixes for Server,
Windows 2000 Post SP3 Hot Fixes, or Windows XP Pro post SP1
Hot Fixes).
