Norman
to Speak at
Chabot Science Center
Berkeley
Lab astrophysicist Rick Norman
will give a talk at the Chabot Space and Science
Center at 7:30 p.m. this Thursday. In his talk,
"Gamma Ray and Neutrino Astronomy: New Window
on the Universe," Norman will explore how
the birth of the cosmos has recently been revealed
in more detail than ever before and how astronomy
has changed in the past decade with the new ability
of astronomers to view into the "micro"
universe presented by gamma rays and neutrinos.

Forget Tomorrow’s

served and the Lab's band will provide music.
Runaround
T-Shirts
Go on Sale Today
A
Runaround t-shirt would make the perfect stocking
stuffer this year. Runaround classics, as well
as this year's very popular long sleeve tee, will
be on sale in the cafeteria today through Thursday,
from noon to 1 p.m. Shirts from 1998, 1999 and
2000 are going for $2 and under, while this year’s
edition is $5.
Still
Waiting for Your
Runaround T-Shirt?
Many
employees who participated in this year’s
Runaround did not receive commemorative t-shirts,
due to short supply. Staff who didn’t receive
t-shirts were asked to turn in a card with their
name on it right after the October event. Well,
more t-shirts have finally arrived and are available
for pick-up today through Thursday, between noon
and 1 p.m., in the cafeteria. Those unable to
make it during those times should e-mail the Employee
Activities Association to make other arrangements.
