On
Thursday, Feb. 19, EETD scientist Tom Wenzel
will explore the question “Are SUV’s Safer
Than Cars?” during a talk for the Lab’s
“Friends of Science” lecture series. During
his talk — which begins at 5:30 p.m. in Perseverance
Hall — Wenzel will discuss the common perception
that heavier vehicles provide greater protection to
their drivers than lighter vehicles. He has found, however,
that many heavier pickups and SUVs are not safer than
cars, and that these heavier vehicles inflict greater
damage on drivers in other vehicles. Full
story.
Science
Bowl Coming;
Lab Volunteers Needed
A
regional Science Bowl for 17 competing high schools
in the area will be held at Berkeley Lab on Saturday,
Feb. 28. Moderators, timers and scorekeepers are needed
to help with the round-robin tournament of math and
science knowledge. Volunteer training will be conducted
on Feb. 25 during the lunch hour. Go here
for more information, or call Joe Crippen (x5816)
or Doug Owen (x7682).

New
Outdoors Club Forming At the Lab A
new employee activities association "outdoors"
club is being organized at the Lab with the
goal of enjoying the Bay Area environment and connecting
with fellow employees. A number of possible activities
are being considered, including hiking, backpacking,
camping, and jogging/running. A preliminary meeting
to determine interest and to decide future events will
take place during a hike/picnic lunch on Sunday, Feb.
22, at 11a.m., at Inspiration Point in Berkeley’s
Tilden Park. Those who are interested should contact
Dinah Levy.
Today
is Last Chance
To Donate Blood
The
Lab’s winter blood drive ends today at 1:30 p.m.
Employees interested in donating blood can stop by Bldg.
70A-3377 or call Charlotte Bochra (x4268) or Ariel
Mercado (773-2402) to make appointments.
Course
on Security
Basics To Be Offered
Computer
security is becoming increasingly important; according
to some statistics, an Internet-connected system is now
attacked, on average, three-to-five times a day. What
are the major threats, and what kinds of solutions work
best? These issues will be addressed in a free course,
“Security Basics,” offered by the Computer
Protection Program, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Feb. 26 in
Perseverance Hall. Go here
to read a course description, and here
to enroll.
