Continuing almost thirty years of successful prairie reconstruction,
Fermilab invites neighbors and friends to help harvest prairie flower seeds.
The harvesting will take place on Saturday, October 4, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
A second harvesting will take place on Saturday, November 1, again from 10 a.m.
to 2 p.m.
Participants are asked to wear field clothing and gloves, and -
if possible - to bring pruning shears and paper bags. Fermilab
staffers will teach volunteers to recognize specific prairie plants
and how to clip their ripe flower heads for seeds.

CERN Press Release, September 29, 2003 LHC Computing Grid Goes Online | ||
| ||
|
The world's particle physics community today announced the launch of the
first phase of the LHC Computing Grid (LCG). The LCG is designed to handle the unprecedented quantities of data that will be produced by experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) from 2007 onwards.
"The LCG will provide a vital test-bed for the new Grid computing technologies that are set to revolutionise the way scientists use the world's computing resources in areas ranging from fundamental research to medical diagnosis," said Les Robertson, CERN's LCG project manager.

The usual Tuesday Director's Corner will appear on Wednesday this week. I will talk about the report of P5, the Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel, made public in Washington on Monday at a meeting of the High Energy Physics Advisory Panel. By tomorrow, HEPAP will post the P5 report to a public Web site so that everyone in the Fermilab community can read its recommendations. |
