Council Honors Lab
For Waste Reduction
Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates and City Council Member Gordon Wozniak presented Berkeley Lab's Chief Operations Officer, David McGraw, with a proclamation commending the Lab "for its demonstrated leadership in waste reduction, setting an example that other nearby research laboratories and businesses might emulate to contribute to environmental sustainability in our communities, and for the aggressive and successful programs that contributed to meeting the U.S. and DOE waste reduction goals." The tribute took place at last Tuesday's Council meeting. See the complete proclamation here, and read McGraw's acceptance remarks here.

Nuclear Chemist Performs Crucial Data Evaluation
Janis Dairiki readily admits her field is not a very sexy one. But, she adds, nuclear data evaluation is fundamental to both basic and applied research, and even more crucial as homeland security needs and interest in nuclear energy have increased. Dairiki has spent her entire career, starting in 1970, working at the Lab, focusing on the compilation, evaluation and dissemination of experimental nuclear data. She was one of three principal authors of the 7th Edition of the Table of Isotopes (originally published by Glenn Seaborg in 1940). Working with the LBNL Isotopes Project and the other U.S. data centers, she introduced new methods of evaluation and electronic data dissemination. Dairiki served as the assistant, then deputy director of the Nuclear Science Division from 1980-1997.

Adding or Changing
Your Beneficiaries
When was the last time you updated your beneficiary designations? After the conversion to an online system, some beneficiaries named on the old paper forms are no longer valid and must be re-entered.

EUV Scientist Will Stay
The Times Union newspaper in Albany, N.Y., reported on Tuesday (and included in yesterday's Today at Berkeley Lab) that Lab materials scientist Patrick Nealleau was recruited to lead a new integrated circuits nanoscience center at the University of Albany.
