October 21 Briefs Excerpts:

Tips for Curtailing Spam
Getting a lot of spam in your e-mail inbox? JLab has contracted with  
MXLogic to filter viruses and spam out of incoming e-mail. There are  
several methods you can employ to further curtail the amount of spam  
that reaches your inbox. The simplest method is to forward spam  
messages to spam at mxlogic.com - this trains the filters at MXLogic to  
recognize such messages as spam; it may take a few forwarded e-mails  
to work. Additional, more involved steps can be found on the JLab E- 
mail Filtration Services webpage: http://cc.jlab.org/services/email/spam.html

Performance Appraisals Update
Supervisors have until Tuesday, Oct. 27 to meet with employees to  
discuss FY10 expectations and self-assessments and complete draft  
evaluations. If you are offsite, you can stay on track by using a PIN;  
you can get your PIN from Bruce Ullman at x7170. The appraisal system,  
a timeline for the appraisal process, a tutorial slideshow and a  
frequently asked questions document are available online: http://www.jlab.org/div_dept/admin/HR/appraisal_system.html

Last Chance to Submit Your APS April Meeting Abstract
The deadline for receipt of abstracts is Friday, Oct. 23, at 5 p.m.  
EDT (2 p.m. PDT). The 2010 APS April Meeting will take place at the  
Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, DC. Because the April  
Meeting will be held in conjunction with the annual winter meeting of  
the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT), it has been moved  
to February. More information is available online: http://www.aps.org/meetings/april/info/index.cfm

Hand Sanitizer Still Available
To minimize the spread of flu this season, JLab purchased bottles of  
hand sanitizer and wipes for distribution to staff and users for  
disinfecting hands and common-use workplace surfaces, such as phones  
and keyboards. One 8-ounce bottle of hand sanitizer and 10  
disinfecting wipes are available for each individual. These materials  
are for use in the workplace; they are not meant to be taken home. Use  
only as indicated on the product label. If you didn't pick up your  
personal allotment last week, you can obtain them from the Technical  
Stockroom, Bldg. 90, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday-Friday. If you  
have any questions, contact x7225 or x7233.
