Windows Users: Don't
Install XP SP 2 Just Yet
The Lab's Information and Technology Services Division (ITSD) is recommending that employees not install Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 until testing of a customized version for the Lab has been completed. Service Pack 2 installs a firewall that can break services and application availability by default. ITSD has disabled the automatic installation of Service Pack 2 via Microsoft automatic update for all systems logging into the Novell or Microsoft Active Directory environments at the Lab. If you have already installed Service Pack 2, go here (to Security/Service Packs section) to disable the firewall.

Make Your Shuttle
Bus Ride A Safe One
The Lab's Shuttle Bus service is a wonderful convenience for employees. To make it as safe and comfortable as possible, passengers are asked to follow a few simple rules. This and future articles will share some tips on the do's and don'ts for bus riders. For example, employees shouldn't run to try and catch a bus. Doing so can cause trips, falls and injury. Also, when waiting at a bus stop, stand back, away from the curb so the bus has room to pull up to its stop.
In An Emergency:
1-800-445-5830
The number above is printed on the back of all employee badges. It is the emergency status number. That is, if something happens in or near the laboratory that might affect access or work conditions, Berkeley Lab's Emergency Services Office will activate an audio message at that number to inform employees about what they should do.
