Lab Volunteers Help 'Rebuild' Local Homes
Several
volunteers from Berkeley Lab, along with other helpers
spent most of Saturday installing energy efficiency measures
as part of the Energy Teams of the Albany-Berkeley-Emeryville
chapter of Rebuilding Together. The volunteers formed
three teams and visited the houses of low-income elderly
and disabled homeowners, installing hot water heater blankets,
weather striping, compact fluorescent lamps, low-flow
showerheads, and other energy-and water-saving measures.
Their work was part of the larger activity of rehabilitating
homes throughout the country every April -- this year,
about 3,500 houses nationwide.

Managers Toolkit
For HR Unveiled
The Lab's
Human Resources Department is launching the "Manager's
HR Toolkit," an online resource for those who manage,
supervise, or provide leadership. The site provides
easy access to information, tools, resources, and links.
It features several categories, including: "How
do I..." questions, an A-Z index, a glossary of terms,
and "What's New." The toolkit is being developed in stages,
so the entire content is not currently available. Feedback
from Lab supervisors was solicited in a review of the
toolkit's design and content. Comments and suggestions
from all Lab users are welcome. The Manager's HR Toolkit
is listed on the A-Z Index. Go here
to check it out.

'Cyberwar' Screened at Computer Brown Bag
The Computer Protection Brown Bag this Thursday will feature a screening of the Frontline Documentary "Cyberwar." It begins at noon in Building 70A- 3377. The program investigates a number of cyber attacks that have already occurred in recent years, including "Slammer," which last January took down the Internet in South Korea and affected 911 systems and the banking system in the United States, and the "Nimda" virus that quietly attacked Wall Street in 2001.

GAO Audits This Week
One year ago, auditors from the General Accounting Office came to Berkeley Lab to "determine the effectiveness of internal controls over procurement methods and property management systems." At that time, the auditors conducted a process evaluation, looking at the information sharing systems used by Procurement, Human Resources, and Property Management in an effort to assess the accuracy of linked resources. They return today to spend the week conducting the second half of their evaluation, using a list of pre-selected assets to validate "in situ." Property Management is working with Division personnel to ensure that all goes smoothly. If you have any audit related questions, call Carol Earls at x6960.
High Voltage Switching Procedures Begin Today
A series of high voltage electrical switching operations on both the 115kV and 12kV systems will begin today, with completion scheduled for Tuesday, May 4. The switching will allow maintenance and repair work at Grizzly Peak Substation and the ALS Switching Station. The switching procedures will be transparent to the laboratory community, and it is highly unlikely that an interruption of power will occur. However, the possibility of an electrical power interruption always exists. Take all necessary precautions. For more information contact Jim Murphy at x4175 or Mahesh Gupta at x5220.
