Livermore
Name Change
Would Honor Teller
by

Teller

If
Rep. Duncan Hunter has his way, Edward Teller's name
may live on in more than just history books. The powerful
San Diego-area Republican wants to rename Lawrence Livermore
Laboratory after the physicist and lab co-founder, who
died last month at age 95. The proposal is bound to
be controversial because of Teller's history as an inventor
of the hydrogen bomb, a constant nuclear advocate and
a proponent of the Reagan-era missile defense system.

Lab
Partners in Carbon
Sequestration Oil Project
The Department
of Energy has announced that its "Teapot Dome"
oil field in Wyoming will anchor a pioneering scientific
venture that ultimately could prove to be one option
of large-scale, region-wide carbon sequestration —
a critical step in support of emissions-free energy
and the goals of President Bush's Climate Initiative.
Berkeley Lab is among the partners
in the effort. Full

Drivers Lauded
For Safe Driving
At
a special ceremony held yesterday in Perseverance
Hall, four bus drivers and one truck driver
received Spot awards for driving safely. They
were honored for reaching five-year milestones
without a preventable accident. This year’s
honorees included Gwen Holland
(5 years) and (pictured left to right) Ralph
Sallee (5 years), Penny Casteel
(5 years), Frank Wright (10
years), and Scott Holbein (5
years). The five received a certificate and
small cash gift. The award was established to
“recognize and promote safe vehicle operation
for the drivers who spend their days providing
a valuable service to the Lab community.”

Ghosts Invade the Lab
Today
is Halloween, and Lab employees have embraced
this holiday with unbridled enthusiasm, decorating
their offices, handing out candy, dressing up,
and — most importantly — having
fun. Go here to
see a photo album featuring various festivities
around the Lab.
