20th Annual Procrastinators' Christmas Party
by Hovland, Paul 15 Jan '19

15 Jan '19

Finally getting this announcement out. Sorry for the delay… Laurie, Emma, and I invite you to join us for this year's Procrastinators' Christmas Party, to be held Sunday, January 27th at 2:00pm. We'll have the usual assortment of snacks and holiday sweets, along with nonalcoholic beverages (juice, soda, etc.), wine, and (seasonal and non-seasonal) beer. Children and spouses/friends are welcome. We'll have the usual grab bag (w/ stealing) gift exchange, so please bring one wrapped gift (approx. $15) per person participating in the exchange. If possible, let us know that you're coming, so we know how much food to prepare (not to worry if you don't—I always make too much anyway). We'll also have a small gift exchange for the kids not participating in the "adult” exchange. Guidelines are below. We're at 733 Metropolitan Ave, Bolingbrook. Directions are below. Google Maps and Apple Maps also know the way. Hope to see you there... Paul --- Guidelines on the kids exchange: please bring a (wrapped) gift (<$10) that would be appropriate for your own child(ren) and label it with the suitable age range and gender, e.g., Boy 10-16yrs or Boy/Girl 1-3 yrs. We'll do our best to shuffle the gifts around so your kids leave with something other than what you bring, but we'd hate to have the lone infant end up with a box of legos or a teenager end up with a baby toy. ---- Directions: From I-55: I-55 to the Weber Road exit (1st exit south of 53) North on Weber Road to Rodeo/119th St Left (west) on Rodeo to Madison (about 1 mile) [Madison is not well marked as such; there is, however, a big sign for Southgate Park; it's just past a church; if you get to the golf course, you've gone too far.] Right (north) on Madison to Park Place (road tees) Left (west) on Park to Metropolitan (1st right) Right (north) on Metropolitan to 733 733 is a grey house with burgundy shutters on the left with a 3 car garage [you might see our neighbor's mailbox, #734; ours is behind it]

Hello Everyone: Below, please find the details about the lab-level process for the DOE ECRP. As noted in the FOA, submission of a pre-proposal is mandatory. To ensure that all submitted ANL pre-proposals are responsive to the Office of Science research topics and are of the highest quality, the Lab will conduct an internal screening process to determine which pre-proposals will be submitted. The ANL deadline is January 25 at 5pm. If you plan to submit an ECRP pre-proposal to ASCR, please notify as soon as possible the appropriate POC based upon the target area: * Applied Math [areas (a) through (c)]: Stefan Wild * Computer Science [areas (d) through (g)]: Paul Hovland * Quantum Computing [area (h)]: Valerie Taylor The POCs can help with communication with the appropriate PM as well as identifying appropriate mentorship/review. Thanks, Valerie From: "Sullivan, Vivian S." <vivian.sullivan(a)anl.gov> Date: Thursday, January 10, 2019 at 11:56 AM To: "Guha, Supratik" <sguha(a)anl.gov>, "Noirot, Philippe H." <pnoirot(a)anl.gov>, "Messina, Paul C." <messina(a)anl.gov>, Ian Foster <foster(a)anl.gov>, "Negri, Cristina" <negri(a)anl.gov>, "Papka, Michael E." <papka(a)anl.gov>, "Taylor, Valerie E." <vtaylor(a)anl.gov>, "Krumdick, Gregory K." <gkrumdick(a)anl.gov>, "Williamson, Mark A." <williamson(a)anl.gov>, "Brannegan, David K." <dbrannegan(a)anl.gov>, "Hillebrand, Donald Gerard" <hillebrand(a)anl.gov>, "Roglans-Ribas, Jordi" <roglans(a)anl.gov>, "Laurin-Kovitz, Kirsten" <klk(a)anl.gov>, "Byrd, John" <jbyrd(a)anl.gov>, "Connolly, John P, IV" <connolly(a)anl.gov>, "Lang, Jonathan C." <lang(a)anl.gov>, "Jenks, Cynthia J." <cjenks(a)anl.gov>, "Mitchell, John" <mitchell(a)anl.gov>, "Hafidi, Kawtar" <kawtar(a)anl.gov>, "Arrington, John R." <johna(a)anl.gov> Cc: "Habib, Salman" <habib(a)anl.gov>, "Streiffer, Stephen K." <streiffer(a)anl.gov>, "Sunderrajan, Suresh" <ssunderrajan(a)anl.gov>, Rick Stevens <stevens(a)anl.gov>, "Graham, Robin L." <grahamrl(a)anl.gov>, "Rajh, Tijana" <rajh(a)anl.gov>, "Clifford, Megan" <mclifford(a)anl.gov> Subject: Office of Science Early Career Research Program Division Directors, Please distribute this information to the Early Career staff in your Division.

Full information pertaining to the call can be found at http://science.energy.gov/early-career/ . The national laboratory announcement is LAB 19-2019 https://science.energy.gov/~/media/grants/pdf/lab-announcements/2019/LAB_19… . Please read the solicitation carefully and be aware of all aspects of the process that are required. Note that the research areas allowed under the call are quite specific for each program and sub-program and details are provided for each program in the solicitation. This information should be carefully scrutinized to ensure responsiveness to the FOA. First, please note that to participate in the Office of Science Early Career Research Program, submission of a pre-proposal is mandatory as part of the DOE process. To ensure that all submitted ANL pre-proposals are responsive to the Office of Science research topics and are of the highest quality, the Lab will conduct an internal screening process to determine which pre-proposals will be submitted, as follows: 1. Each PI interested in being considered for the program should identify and work with a mentor or set of mentors as they develop their pre-proposal. 1. Pre-proposals will be screened by the cognizant program point of contact (POC) in consultation with their respective ALD. Each interested PI is required to submit by e-mail a full pre-proposal, as specified in the solicitation to the area POC listed below, and Vivian Sullivan at vivian.sullivan(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>. In the e-mail submission of the pre-proposal, PIs should include the name of their mentor(s), the program area for the subject of the pre-proposal, and all other required information as listed in the solicitation. If a PI has previously submitted an unsuccessful ECRP proposal, they should also attach their previous reviews to the e-mail. Preproposals must be submitted by 5 pm Friday January 25, 2019. ASCR Silvia Mulligan for Mike Papka (smulligan(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) BER Silvia Mulligan for Robin Graham (smulligan(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) BES-MSE John Mitchell (mitchell(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) BES sections a though j BES-CSGB Cynthia Jenks (cjenks(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) BES sections k through u BES-SUF Supratik Guha (sguha(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) BES section v BES-SUF Stephen Streiffer (aps-director(a)aps.anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]> ) BES sections w, x, y HEP Salman Habib (habib(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>) NP John Arrington (johna(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]> ) 1. A committee consisting of the Senior Science Advisor, ALD representatives and the program points of contact will review these pre-proposals, and select those that will go forward. PIs will be notified of decisions by COB Friday February 1. 1. PIs who are notified of positive decisions will have an opportunity to make final improvements, and then must e-mail their final pre-proposals and all required information to Vivian Sullivan at vivian.sullivan(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]> by COB Monday February 4. Final submission in PAMS will be done by OCF by the February 6th deadline. Information on PAMS will be provided separately.
