It's been great working with you!!

The following additions and modifications to Stack Manager will be effective as of Saturday September 8, 2001.
Stack Manager Modifications Inactivate All Stack - In addition to the individual Activate/Inactive Stack buttons, there is now an Inactivate All Stack button.
Similar to the Suspend All button, this button will inactivate the trader's stack on all active products.
Any existing top of stack limit orders will continue to post to the website and remain transactable.
See screen shot below: Inactivate All Stack button on far right.
Please note that we have switched the positions of the suspend and inactivate buttons in Stack Manager.
Fill Order - If a product is set up as either Restricted Top of Stack or Top of Stack the trader now has the ability to automatically fill any order that is at the top of the stack.
In order to fill a limit order that is at the top of the product's stack, which will appear in pink, the trader should right click anywhere on the stack window and choose "Fill order".
The volume filled on an order will be that which is offered by the trader.
In order to fill the complete volume of the order, the trader will need to adjust the volume in his stack.
Floated Stack windows - If the stack is inactive on a product, the price and volume fields on the my products tab will continue to be blank.
On the depth window and floated stack window of these products the trader's prices will be in gray and italics.
Children of products that have inactive stacks will not be gray and italicised in the floated stack windows and will not see the calculated prices.
No Auto Inactivate Stack - It is now possible to keep a product active even if the trader is not logged into Stack Manager.
If the trader wishes to enable this functionality on the upper right corner of the product properties page the trader should choose "No Auto Inactivate when Stack Manager is down".
Changes regarding Suspension of products Stack Manager will inactivate products rather than suspend them in the following cases: ?
Market Close - If a product is active at the end of its trading hours its stack will automatically become inactive rather than suspending.
In order to keep a product's stack active past the set trading hours, the trader should choose "Keep Awake" next to the trading hours section of the product properties page.
?
Auto Suspend now inactivates stack - On a product with the Auto Suspend function enabled to monitor the price changes on the product, the product's stack will be inactivated if the Suspend at level is reached.
This feature can be used by checking the Enable box on the product properties page under the Auto Suspend section.
?
Logging Out of Stack Manager- When you log out of Stack Manager without inactivating or suspending your products, the system will now inactivate your products rather than suspending them.

Hey, we just got word that all permanent change of station moves have been suspended.
That probably means that we will not be able to leave Korea tomorrow as scheduled.
No word on when that may change, but we will keep you posted.

I thought that this is something to think about as we contemplate war...
I have to admit that I am caught between the feelings of needing to act with violence to defend and needing to act with compassion to understand.
> What can you do TODAY...this very moment?
A central teaching in most spiritual traditions is: What you wish to experience, provide for another.
Look to see, now, what it is you wish to experience-in your own life, and in the world.
Then see if there is another for whom you may be the source of that.
If you wish to experience peace, provide peace for another.
If you wish to know that you are safe, cause another to know that they are safe.
If you wish to better understand seemingly incomprehensible things, help another to better understand.
If you wish to heal your own sadness or anger, seek to heal the sadness or anger of another.
Those others are waiting for you now.
They are looking to you for guidance, for help, for courage, for strength, for understanding, and for assurance at this hour.
Most of all, they are looking to you for love.
| thought that this would be appreciated |
Hey y'all... Just wanted to let you know that I am the reason for the Spam.

Hi Everyone, Some of you might be aware that we are planning a Bridal Shower for Jennifer Bowles on Nov 3rd.
Invitations have not yet been sent out so don't be alarmed if you haven't received one.
The shower will be between the hours of 7-9 (maybe 9:30 p.m.) What we were thinking about doing afterwards is going to the Mucky Duck and catching Jimmy LaFave, who is performing at 10 p.m.
He is one of Jennifer's favorites and we thought it would be a nice surprise.
What I need is to know is who all would be interested in going to the show?
Tickets are $15 and we need to get them ASAP.
It will probably last until midnight.
If everyone could please email me back and let me know if you are interested in going, that would be great.
Please don't mention this to Jennifer, we want to keep it a surprise.
Thank You,
| Jennifer's Shower - RSVP |

This week's theme: Latin terms.
............................................................................
It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations.
They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away."
How much it expresses!
How chastening in the hour of pride!
How consoling in the depths of affliction!
-Abraham Lincoln, 16th

assuage (uh-SWAZ) verb tr.
1.

"As soon as Alliance Theatre Artistic Director Susan V. Booth heard about last week's terrorist assault, she began planning an event that would use drama and literature to assuage the grief."
Speed Reads, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Sep 21, 2001.
Eat, sleep, work, walk, shop, drive ... on a typical day, we do hundreds of mundane things.
But Tuesday, September 11, was far from typical.
We expressed our dismay at the tragic toll of the terrorist attack with verbs like grieve, cry, hurt, etc.
What makes us truly human is what we did in the days that followed.
This week AWAD looks at five verbs which helped express our feelings.

Hey Susan, long time no hear.
I hope things are going well with you.
I'm sure by now you're a star trader on the West desk.
I've been in London for the past 5 months in enron Credit (Nick's group).
I'm scheduled to return to Houston next month.

zugzwang (TSOOK-tsvahng) noun A position where one is forced to make an undesirable move.
[From German Zugzwang, Zug (move) + Zwang (compulsion, obligation).]
"Now the government finds itself in zugzwang, where every move it makes worsens its position against an invisible opponent ...." Pusch Commey, Is the Rand Racially Prejudiced?, African Business (London), Mar 2001.
In his classic story "Shatranj Ke Khiladi" ("Chess Players," later made into a movie directed by Satyajit Ray), Hindi writer Munshi Premchand (1880-1936) narrates the saga of a kingdom engrossed in playing chess, unmindful of the advancing enemy forces.
Such is the charm of this ancient Indian game.
An Italian proberb goes, "After the game, the king and pawn go into the same box."
A world in itself, chess mimics life in more ways than one.
While quite simple on the surface, its complexity is mind-boggling.
There are more than 10120 possible moves (that's number 10 followed by 120 zeros).
That is a?fairly large number once we realize that there are only about 1075 atoms in this universe.
It attests to the popularity of the game that many of the chess words have entered our mainstream vocabulary.
This week we explore five of them.
-Anu
| A.Word.A.Day--zugzwang |
gambit (GAM-bit) noun 1.
An opening in which a minor piece is sacrificed to obtain a strategic advantage.
2.
A maneuver used to secure an advantage.

A remark used to open or redirect a conversation.
[From Spanish gambito, from Italian gambetto (the act of tripping someone), from gamba (leg).]
"North Korea will no doubt try to gain maximum advantage by playing South Korea, America and Japan off against each other.
If it fails to get the result - and the cash - it wants from its new diplomatic gambit, it may simply abandon the enterprise."
The Two Koreas: Mr Kim, Meet Mr Kim, The Economist (London), Apr 15, 2000.

Sin is geographical.

Karen Berger, Going in Circles: When it Comes to a Good Hike, the Best Route May be From Point A to Point A, Backpacker, Jun 1, 1996.

chichi (SHEE-shee) adjective Affectedly elegant.
noun 1.
Showy stylishness 2.
A person with such quality.
[From French.]
"If all that sounds too chichi, get back to basics with the traditional present - socks ..." Bazaar, The Independent (London), Nov 2, 1996.
This week's theme: unusual words.
............................................................................ No man but feels more of a man in the world if he have a bit of ground that he can call his own.
However small it is on the surface, it is four thousand miles deep; and that is a very handsome property.

tantivy (tan-TIV-ee) adverb At full gallop; at full speed.
noun A fast gallop; rush.
adjective Swift.
interjection A hunting cry by a hunter riding a horse at full speed.
[Of obscure origin, perhaps from the sound of a galloping horse's feet.]
"But both the book and the exhibit show clearly that along with these changes in diet, sport and exercise had an early start and a long run among the tangled tantivy of 19th-century cures, cons, leeches, preachers, drugs, zaps, baths, diets, teetotaling, indoor plumbing, ventilation, and `Spanish Nerve Grains' that stampeded Americans into our current obsession with fitness."
Christina Robb, Exercists America's Longtime Pursuit of Fitness, The Boston Globe, Mar 13, 1988.
This week's theme: unusual words.
............................................................................ Man's life does not commence in the womb and never ends in the grave.

blue rinse (BLOO rins) adjective Related to elderly women.
[From the hair-dye used on grey hair that produces a blue shade.]
"If the race comes down to a former officer married to an aristocrat and blessed with four children - or a quiffed Spaniard with a gay past and a soft line on drugs, who do you think the blue rinse brigade will choose?"
Jonathan Freedland, Still Lost in the Wilderness, The Guardian (London), Jul 11, 2001.
Ever wonder how our vocabulary is colored by many hues of a rainbow?
Often we use colors as symbols for ideas, thoughts, and concepts but do it with little logic.
Take the color blue, for example.
A blue chip stock is good to hold in one's portfolio while we're chary of blue-sky stock.
A blue collar worker is a manual laborer yet a bluestocking is one with intellectual inclinations.
A bluenose is a prude but a blue blood is aristocratic.
Even a computer would go crazy trying to make sense of this.
No wonder we made artificial languages to program computers.
In this week's AWAD we take a look at other words and phrases tinged with colors.

Hey Susan, I don't know if you remember me or not, I went to UT and was a good friend of Stephanie Spence.
I know I met you at one of her showers or maybe as late has her wedding.
Anyway, several people have told me that you work here so I thought that I would say hello.
How long have you worked here?
What do you do?
Do you like it?
I'm on the 25th floor with Net Works.
I started in January and so far I like it.
I'm still trying to get used to my job and Houston in general.
Well, I just wanted to let you know I'm here.

In This Edition Banking Essentials Investment Accounts Managing Your Financial Accounts Managing Your Money Back to Basics Taking the first steps toward financial freedom starts with the basics.
Whether you bank online, via ATM, phone, in person, or any combination of these, becoming familiar with the accounts and services your bank offers will make it easier to find the loans, credit cards and even home mortgages that are right for you.
By learning what your bank has to offer, you can take advantage of the financial products and services that best fit your financial needs.
Banking Essentials It's important to learn the features of even the most basic banking products.
Finding the right account is easy when you've done the research.
Checking and Savings Accounts Most people have checking and savings accounts, but may not know that the types of accounts available vary widely.
Everybody's financial needs are different, and that's why it's important to choose the account that fits the way you want to bank and enhances your lifestyle.
?
Checking Accounts.
Do you keep a steady amount of money in your checking account?
Is your checking account your main financial services account?
The right checking account has it all - convenience, flexibility and fast, easy access to your money.
Checking accounts give you the freedom to write checks against your account balance and to have access to your money through an ATM or online banking.
And since everyone's financial needs are different, there are a wide variety of checking accounts available, including interest bearing or non-interest bearing, all of which are FDIC insured.
From accounts that offer you free checking with direct deposit to low-fee student accounts to top-of-the-line financial relationship accounts, there's a checking account that fits your lifestyle.
?
Savings Accounts.
Whether you're saving for a new house or a child's college education, the best way to achieve your financial goals is to put money away each month.
An Automatic Savings Plan makes saving even easier by automatically moving a pre-determined amount of money between your accounts.
Savings accounts are interest- bearing accounts with low minimum balance requirements.
They are a convenient way to save for the future and most savings accounts can be used as overdraft protection for your checking account.
Find out more about the variety of savings accounts available to you.
?
Time Accounts (CDs) If you're planning for a vacation or saving for the future, time accounts , also known as certificates of deposit, are a solid choice for your savings needs.
Time accounts offer guaranteed rates of return for a fixed term, flexibility in length of investment term and are eligible for FDIC insurance.
ATM, Check, and Credit Cards Both ATM cards and check cards provide convenient access to your accounts, allowing you to withdraw cash, make deposits and transfer funds through an ATM.
An ATM card also offers you the ability to make purchases using your Secret Code or Personal Identification Number (PIN) at participating merchants.
With a check card , you have expanded purchasing power at merchants worldwide that accept either Visa (or MasterCard ), depending on which logo is displayed on your card.
Whenever you use a check card or ATM card to make a purchase, the purchase amount is always deducted from your checking account and detailed on your monthly statement for easy record keeping.
Additionally, there are several types of credit cards , which give you the convenience and financial flexibility of paying for your purchases over time, depending on your credit limit.
With all of these choices, there is definitely a card (or cards) that is right for you.
Investment Accounts These days, most people have some sort of an investment account.
However, the type of investment account people choose depends on their comfort level and goals.
Whether you're new to investing, experienced at managing your own investments, or simply want to work with a financial consultant, there are options for you.
?
Full-service brokerage.
New to investing?
Prefer talking to somebody in person?
An experienced financial consultant can help.
It's not always easy making investment choices on your own.
Working with a financial consultant , you get the tailored advice you need to make informed investment decisions.
?
Online brokerage.
If you prefer to manage your investments on your own, online brokerage gives you the dynamic tools to manage your portfolio, research the marketplace, assess your opportunities and make the right decisions.

?
Online account access.

Want to make a quick transfer between accounts but don't have time to stop at the bank or ATM?

Managing Your Money If you're like most people, you work hard and strive to achieve your dreams.
It's important to build a financial foundation to ensure you arrive where you want to be.
Here are a few tips on how you can make smart decisions about your financial future.
Taking Control of Your Finances It's not how much you make, but what you do with your money that matters.
Cutting out a few minor expenses can make a big difference in your savings.
There's no better way to stay out of debt than by tracking your spending and sticking to a budget.
A budget can help you control your finances, decrease your debt, and build a strong credit history.
Where do you spend your money?
Determining your cash flow is the first step in creating a successful budget.
Building Your Credit and Controlling Debt Managing credit can be a challenge.
But a good credit rating is key to many financial decisions.
Learning how to establish and maintain good credit can make a big difference in your savings.
Understanding how to manage your debt can empower you to take charge of your financial future.
The quality of your life is directly linked to how well you manage your credit and debt.

A piece of writing marked by ornate, florid style.
[From Latin pannus purpureus (purple patch), a phrase used by poet Horace in his Ars Poetica (The Art of Poetry) to suggest a patch of royal fabric on an ordinary cloth.]
"Page after page is filled with drunken quarrels with his wife; with lies, infidelities, religious doubts, homosexual yearnings and, above all, with his daily, desperate search for a bottle.
Interspersed among these dreary horrors are purple passages about his love for his children, his dog and his fine house."

pink collar (PINGK KOL-uhr) noun Pertaining to the type of jobs, such as telephone operator or secretary, traditionally held by women.
[From the color pink, traditionally associated with women, on the model of phrases white collar or blue collar.]
"Ever on the alert for social shifts among the power elite, the New York Times pointed out the other day that this is the year in which women entering law school may, for the first time, outnumber men.
The Times drafted a number of learned observers to speculate on the meaning of it all: Perhaps the atmosphere of law schools will become more `teamlike'; ...
But the most interesting comment in the article came from one Deborah Rhode, a Stanford law school professor who worries that the law may become a `pink collar ghetto,' like other professions that have traditionally welcomed women."

Hello!
Just wanted to update you on a couple major changes in my life..... You (hopefully!)
know by now that Brendan and I got engaged last month, about which I'm thrilled.
The other big news in my life is that I willl be leaving QUALCOMM on November 2nd to work for the US State Department.
This means (another!)
cross-country move from San Diego to Washington, D.C.
Please take note of my new mailing address and email below, and PLEASE keep in touch!
I'll especially need to hear from you going through this transition- I'm sad to be leaving QUALCOMM and San Diego, but am looking forward to this next big adventure.
Love,

crabwise (KRAB-wyz) adjective 1.
Sideways.
2.
In a cautious or roundabout manner.
[From the sideways movement of crabs.]
"John Smith is still moving crabwise towards modernity."
John Major's Last Year?, The Economist (London), May 15, 1993.
It's a blessing to have a child at home.
As parent of a four-year old, I strive to answer my daughter Ananya's incessant questions about moon and earthworms and clouds and trees and bears as truthfully as I can.
Our investigations into these seemingly mundane matters often reveal insights that are learning experiences for both of us.
But there are times when my thoughts are elsewhere and I simply answer the question "Why?"
with "Because that's how God made 'em."
I didn't know the joke was on me until the evening I found the corner of our living room wall scribbled with bright shades of crayons.
When questioned why we had that mural on the wall, she simply replied, "Because that's how God made it."
Well, if we were to ask why a crab moves crabwise or sideways, that'd be a pretty good answer: because that's how God (or nature, depending on how your beliefs run) made it.
Because that's how their legs bend.
That's how their muscles flex.
That's how they've adapted.
That's how they survive as a species.
And that's how we got a synonym for the word `sideways' in our dictionary.
If we were to look up the term `humanwise' in a crab's dictionary, chances are it would mean `sideways'.

Dear West, We talked briefly on Monday about our commitment to a full work day at Enron.
If you are in the office, then please be prepared to contribute to the group for a full day.
Our schedule now calls for critical communication in the afternoons.
We need to know that each employee will be here every day to create the consistency needed to outperform the rest of the market.
We want to remain as flexible as possible with all traders when it comes to an emergency, but remember that you have a commitment to Enron to contribute a full work day.
Please organize your vacation on the west desk calendar with Ina and coordinate any early afternoon departures with Ina and myself.
Also, prepare to have your markets covered when you leave the office early.
Sincerely,
| Work Hours |

I just talked to Chris Kennedy, she informed me that Amoco will be taking down their liquids line that feeds the Wattenberg plant for the entire months of August and September.
What that means is that the gas flows into CIG at Watkins/Box Elder will be reduced.
She says by 15% but I don't know if that's entirely correct.
This hurts us on the Thermo deal, delivered to Skyline, due to the fact that these two receipt points are the only points that work on our discounted transportation.
I don't think we will have too much trouble buying DJ supplies during the peak of the summer but keep your eyes open for any Watkins/Box Elder supply.
We also need to start working CIG for a discount on other receipt points.
Paul PS Make sure if you are using the CIG Skyline DISCOUNTED transportation at receipt points other than Watkins and Box Elder we are requesting discounts for these additional points.
Otherwise we will be paying max rate!

Hey guys just thought I would let you know that Valero is going to be at the Job Fair this Friday at Enron Field from 1-4 and I will be one of the people attending it to represent us.
So if you are going to be there make sure you come by and at least say hello.
Plus depending on when my flight back is going to be and how soon I can leave the Fair we plan on going somewhere and getting a couple of drinks.
So come by drop off a resume and maybe we can get some drinks.
Note: If you are interested in Valero there is a very good possibility that the Director of Mid-Office will be attending as well and it would be a good chance for an informal interview.
Hope everybody is doing alright and pass the word on to anybody I may have missed.

bonjour girls- am relishing the balmy london weather- today: 73 degrees and breezy- and no rain to speak of.
sorry- had to rub it in a little.
anyways, got an email from marci's LA friend that i met while he was visiting in london.
he is a producer working for animal planet doing documentaries on dog shows, one of which took him to london.
now he's coming to houston this wednesday for the reliant energy dog show, and emailed me to let me know, since he's "helping" dad find the ultimate female GSP.
so.....i emailed him bk, suggesting he try to meet up w/ y'all, that you could show him the houston ropes, so to speak, and gave him your names and phone #s. kates- you already know jim from LA, and maybe marce has already given him your #.
am not sure.
but anyways, he is really nice, easy to talk to (even for moi, miss antisocial) and could be a fun night out.
just wanted to give you heads up in case some weirdo named jim casey called and you were totally clueless....chat w/ you soon!
merci, little hostesses!

| pimping you out... |
em, very good idea on updating everyone on india.
i will definitely try to stay on top of that.
i keep finding myself so busy.
the school operates on a 6 day class cycle rather than a 5 day cycle so no day of the week is ever the same with regards to the kids or the classes you teach.
and to make it even more confusing after school activities run on a typical 5 day cycle.
so intramurals, study halls, after school meetings, etc are on the same day every week.
so i find myself studying my schedule every night before i go to bed so i know exactly where i am supposed to be the next morning.
so my responsibilities thus far are: * assisting during the day with 8,9,11,12 grade boys vball * 7,8 grade vball intramurals after school *study hall at the girls dorms 2 times a week *and now trying to put together a schedule in which to teach the staff PC applications.
its amazing how little the teachers know with regards to Microsoft Office especially since the school is trying to get international recognition.
so Priya and I will be putting classes together so that the teachers get more proficient and then can use computer applications within there curriculum next semester.
my weekends are pretty busy also.
saturday, i am doing an 8 hour hike to Gunder Falls which is supposed to be absolutely breathtaking.
I did a 5 hour one last weekend and hopefully will get a chance to get some of those pictures up for everyone to look at.
then sunday, ultimate frisbee.
next weekend, i am chaperoning a camping trip with the 9th grade students and chaperoning a school dance.
the days are long and busy but the nights are fairly uneventful.
we typically do dinner at someones place and then in bed by 10 and up by 6:30. its fine, because the sun rises at 6 and by early afternoon the clouds set in and its overcast the rest of the afternoon and evening.
i am hoping that soon changes as well as the temperature.
its absolutely frigid up here.
probably no colder than it gets in houston in january, but theres no escape from it.
there are no heaters and the houses are made of mud with metal roofing.
my first purchase here was a tiny space heater.
well, hope all is well.
i will write more later, lisa

Hi Guys- Just wanted to let you know that my hotmail account will be the best way to reach me for now.
Our company shut down last Thursday- so now I am out of a job.
Great time to be looking.
Anyways- it was a total shock and we were quite upset.
My parent company is trying to find something for me there- but its not looking too good.
If you hear of any leads-please let me know.
Also- anyones addresss that I missed- can you send them this way.
I don't have Amanda's, Lisa's, or Courtney's (work).
Also- I am not sure if I have the right address for Courtnie.
So- let me know.
I'll keep you updated.
Thanks-

hi... heard anything from puget sound energy???
how are things at enron?
hope you have a good weekend... do you get monday off as a holiday?
i wish we did, but we don't... saw a great movie last night- the royal tennenbaums.
it was awesome.
emailed rob (guy that emailed me and asked me out from last saturday) anyway, he emailed me monday afternoon and i finally emailed him back on wednesday afternoon.
IT WAS THE WORLD"S DORKIEST EMAIL EVER... i am so embarassed.
basically i said no that i didn't want to go out with him, and now i feel horrible about it.
oh well, since my email was so dorky he probably doesn't want to go out with me either... take care bonnie
| hi |
hello all, havent been as good about sending mass email updates as i had originally i= ntended, so here we go... well, you have all been asking if i have been sick and i can finally answe= r yes.
it happened this weekend, and of all places and times while i was c= haperoning a 9th grade camping trip.
i am considering myself extremely luc= ky though for a couple of reasons: 1) my stomach actually held out for 3 w= eeks in india, 2) it only lasted about 36 hours and started at the latter = half of the camping trip, and 3) supposedly it should only hit once (we wi= ll see; we all know how much i enjoy being the exception to every rule).= =20 the camp was at a beautiful spot called Poondi.
the school owns several hu= ndred acres of land surrounding a lake about a 2 hr drive and then a 30 mi= nute hike from campus.
KIS is in the process of building bathrooms and sho= wers, a sand volleyball court, and a deck going out onto the water.
so it = was actually great to be there "roughing it" with the 13 students before a= ll the distractions are in place.
we spent the days repelling and doing ar= chery and i was actually leading some of these activities.
SCARY??
so asid= e from the 3 rats in the girls hole in the ground bathroom and the extrem= ely bumpy bus ride it was rather enjoyable.
the kids got a kick out of the= herd of bison (and so did i) on the road on our way back to school.
they = were absolutely enormous and the bus driver had to turn off the engine whi= le we sat patiently and waited 20 minutes for them to finish doing whateve= r it was they were doing so we could proceed on.
priya and i were scheduled to chaperone a school dance that evening but gi= ven my stomach problems i opted out and it ended up being canceled anyway = for a memorial service.
a 5th grade student who became ill the first day o= f class, Jan. 8, died this weekend.
he was transported to madurai for care= on jan. 9 and had been in extremely bad condition ever since.
indian dr.s= have no idea the cause and had called on other dr. around the world to he= lp identify the cause but still nothing has been determined.
the first th= ought was that he contracted something at school but that was quickly rule= d out given the short time frame he was actually here.
the students werent= allowed to arrive before jan. 7 and given his unique case and that no oth= er students have had any of symptoms it was ruled an impossibility.
even m= ore tragic, the parents of another student had gone to visit Asad in the h= ospital shortly after he was admitted and on their way home were involved = in a car accident.
the father died immediately and the mother has been in = a coma.
she is expected to make a full recovery, but nonetheless, extreme= ly traumatic events for young children at the start of the semester.=20 lets move on to a brighter topic.... i am still enjoying myself.
i started= study hall last night.
i will be doing study hall every tuesday night fro= m 7-9 in the girls 7th and 8th grade dorm for math and english.
its unbeli= evable how stupid you can feel trying to do 8th grade math.
i was reading = the textbook to remind myself what the rules were for arithmetic and geome= tric sequences.
intramurals began this week.
mondays and thursdays i am do= ing 7th and 8th grade boys vball intramurals.
so my evenings are pretty bu= sy and my days are getting busier.
i just took on the kindergarten PE cla= ss.
i start next week.
there are 6 of them and when i asked what they are = doing currently the elementary school coordinator told me that yesterday t= hey were marching left, right, left to learn the difference between their = right and left.
he suggested that next i teach them to skip, hop, gallop, = etc.
how cute is that?
i am really looking forward to it especially after = spending everyday 9th and 10th period with the juniors and seniors.
some m= ore good news...I found out monday that all volunteers were given a pay in= crease effective immediately for the month of january.
i was making 700 R= s/mo.
(approx.
$14) and am now making 2,000 Rs/mo.
(approx.
$40).
priya as= sures me that she doesn't spend more than 4,000 Rs/mo.
so obvioulsy expens= ives are of little concern.
so this is an invitation to all of my fellow e= x-enron employees still job-hunting with no attachments or responsibilitie= s (Bryan, Niclas) to come for an extended visit?
dont worry its not a one= time invitation.
you will be asked again.=20 this weekend i am helping to finalize plans and registration for the Terry= Fox 10K Cancer fundraiser on sunday.
Terry Fox was a canadian man who los= t a leg to cancer and started this fundraiser before he died in the early = nineties.
The fundraiser now takes place in 54 countries and India is the = 8th largest contributing country.
A canadian woman that i work very closel= y with here brought the fundraiser to Kodai last year and it was a huge su= ccess.
before all of that i am chaperoning the middle school's weekend ac= tivity saturday night, Night Frisbee.=20 It should be a pretty tame weekend (not that weekends here arent) given th= e recent events in Calcutta.
the state of Tamil Nadu and the rest of India= have put American Institutions on high alert.
So this morning at an all-s= chool assembly the principal met with staff and students to inform us of t= he security measures that are in place for the remainder of the week and t= hrough the weekend and possibly ongoing.
All school campus have been shut = down and locked up with only the main entrances accessible and guarded by = indian commandoes.
the students all laughed at the word "commandoes" inst= ead of "police" or "armed guards" but that was the word used.
students and= staff effective by end of school today are required to wear ID badges, no= visitors other than family members of student and staff are allowed on ca= mpus, and students who live in dorms off campus will be transported to and= from dorm by bus.
I LIVE ON CAMPUS!!
I still feel very safe here given th= e inaccessibility of Kodaikanal.
we are extremely far south of everything = that continues to happen in the north, 7,000 ft up in the mountains, a 3 h= r. ride up the mountain, and remember indians aren't the people committing= these acts.
i havent said any of this to worry anyone.
actually my inten= t was quite the opposite.
i am anticipating emails from a lot of you quest= ioning the schools response to the incident in calcutta and wanted to assu= re all of you that security measures are in place.=20 love you and miss you,

hi just booked a room (a studio actually) for whistler on feb 16, 17, 18, and 19th... we had to book 4 nights although we are staying only 3 nights.
got a pretty good deal considering we get a kitchen, it's ski in and ski out, etc.
will be so fun... i am going with my friend ali that i work with, and her roommate sam.
they are both super cool we have room for one more person.
i know it's a stretch, but since i knew you were interested in heading to whistler at some point and was going to see if you would want to come with us.
we would leave on saturday the 16th for whistler and come back to seattle on tuesday the 19th... (monday is presidents day ).
it is going to be great fun!
presidents day weekend is crazy in whistler, they think of it like christmas time as it is as busy as christmas time or busier.
tons of people.
im so excited.
i know you will be looking for jobs, etc.
maybe you could make a trip back up to seattle coincide with a fun trip to whistler!
let me know what you think bonnie price is: 299 Canadian a night times 4 nights so total is 1200 Canadian divided by 4 (if you came, there would be 4) is 300 canadian each, which is about 212.00 US... NOt bad for 3 night stay
| whistler! |
ok....am wondering if i can get some feedback on attendance for a b-day outing this sat.
night in houston...any takers?
i know some of you expressed interest, some requested sat night b/c of a whirlwind social calendar (alan wins!
), and some....have dropped off the face of the earth.
peace out, mes amis- emily ps....pass along to those i've missed, s'il vous plait
| saturday? |
ok- so, step one in planning event: be sure "guest of honor" is available that date....which, apparently sue isn't!
sigh.
she's got a packed weekend w/ (other people's) wedding obligations....will have to re-group and look at other dates.
however, i may still be interested in a grp get-together, in a non-birthday related event..... emily

Suz, I'm using both addresses since I don't know which one is current.
Guess that you had a good time at Monique's and did a little skiing.

We are flying and having a good time out here.
It's fun to work with the Navy again.
This time it is the carrier Abraham Lincoln and her battle group.
mostly we make attacks on her and fighters like F-14s and F-18's come up and intercept us.
We are carrying electronic pods which jam and deceive their radars and everybody gets some good training.
Yesterday I just got out to the area which is south of San Clemente island off the coast of Southern California and had a generator failure.
I was with another A-4 and he continued the mission.
I went back to Pt.Mugu and jumped into another airplane and got back out for the second and third runs.
The whole thing just about wore me out but it felt good to get the mission accomplished.
Love, Dad

i am sorry to hear about purget, but it sounds like things may work out for the best regardless.
i am so excited for you and very excited to visit you in seattle when i return.
i must say that you did a very bold thing turning down UBS without having another job lined up.
but i agree with you, its definitely best to make a clean break.
are all the employees that agreed to stay with UBS going to relocate or stay in houston?
did lenhart accept?
how long did you have to make your decision?
are you still working at enron for the moment?
if so, how long can you stay on and still receive a paycheck?
what does your mom think about seattle?
i cant believe you could be there by march.
sorry for all the questions... just excited to hear.
yvette and erik have accepted jobs at Huber and are staying in houston, but signed the contract to sell there house before they accepted the job.
so they will be moving into an apartment.
anything else going on?
keep me posted and send me your hotmail email address.
i have it in my address book on hotmail but havent been able to access the internet in a week.
just want to be able to find you if you leave enron soon.

Aon Consulting, Enron's flexible spending account administrator, has experienced some processing delays.
Aon has encountered difficulty in retrieving spending account deduction information, and some deductions are not appearing in Aon's records.
Enron Benefits is working with our IT group to help Aon resolve this issue.
Also, unprecedented activity at the end of 2001 flooded Aon with year-end claims.
Aon has assured us that 2001 reimbursements are now up-to-date, and that they began processing 2002 reimbursements on Monday, February 4.
Questions regarding flexible spending accounts can be directed to georgia.fogo@enron.com.

nbc is supposed to film the lodge i work at tomorrow morning at 830. i won't be there but they will probably go through the bakery as well.
just fyi in case you have a tv handy.
also, i may be going over to the canyons to try to get on the today show....at least as one of those crowd people with the signs.
i'm thinking that putting "enron refugee" on the sign might get me some air time.
i am joking of course.
i will send an email if i end up trying to get on tv.
ciao.

All, Attached is a spreadsheet of Enron's curve names for the West book.
We just need a quick status on the broker quotes you have and the ones still needed/missing.
Please review the curves against the broker data you have (including electronic files), and indicate any gaps.
Based on your reply, the Estate will purchase the missing data.
Please have this prepared by 12:00 tomorrow.

Susan, Hey, just thought I'd check in.
I have done some looking and it seems like $870 is the best price I can find for a round trip, Houston to Korea.
The only catch is that the rate is a "military" rate.
I have NEVER been asked to show a military ID at the airport.
I have asked around and no one that I know if has ever been asked either.
I really do think you'd be safe, I'd just buy the ticket here in your name and send it on to you.
If you don't do it that way, the fares are running around $1000-1100 and up.
The price of $870 is what Chuck and I did home for Christmas and would be on Asiana Airlines.
Let me know if you are still interested in coming and what you think about the fares.
Hope you had a good time in Seattle.

Hello all, I know, I know... the updates have been few and far between.
But here it goes.
Its about 1:30 pm on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon.
I had a safe trip to Ooty and back chaperoning the high school girls field hockey trip.
Ooty is another hill station about an 8 hour bus trip from here.
The students travel there about 3 times a semester to compete in various sporting events.
Its significantly bigger so there are more schools (and more shopping opportunities) there to compete with.
We left Thursday afternoon and arrived Thursday evening.
On Friday, it was the outdoor field hockey competition between 4 schools.
The girls won 2nd place.
On Saturday the girls won first place in indoor hockey.
Hebron, a British missionary school, hosted the tournament.
It was the first time I saw so many people that looked like me.
It was unbelievable how many blond hair, blue-eyed people there were.
Hebron was founded around the same time Kodaikanal International School was (about 100 years ago) and while KIS has transformed itself from a purely American Christian school to an International School, Hebron has remained virtually the same with regards to its Christian beginnings and to the students enrolled.
Its largely British, with Australians and New Zealanders and very few Indian students.
I had a great time getting to know the girls and answering a lot of their questions about the States for the 12th grade girls who have applied to colleges in the US.
The trip was amazing, but also a bit depressing.
Its so sad to travel through.
Some of the living conditions are unbelievably poor especially in the plains.
We are also so fortunate to be able to live the way we do.
Anyways...
I am also extremely busy substituting a 9th grade English honors class.
The teacher is out for 2 weeks for a supposed spider bite and skin graph.
I really wish I had paid more attention in high school.
The students are reading Shakespeare and luckily its Romeo and Juliet.
ITs about the only Shakespeare story that anyone can fumble through.
It was to initially be a supervisory role when we thought he would be out 3 days but its now more a teaching role since hes out for 2 weeks.
Can't wait for him to return.
Gotta run.
Want to try to take a nap before ultimate frisbee.
Didn't make it home until 3 am last night from Ooty.
I will be sending another email mid-March after long weekend.
I am heading to the southern state of Kerala with Priya and her family for a boating backwaters trip through some Indian villages.
Hope all is well!
Take care.
Love,
| India Update |
Susan, I am busy this morning.
Can we do this early this afternoon, say at 1:30?
Also can you please send an email to my supervisor Chris Constantine and our main business user Bjorn Hagelmann to outline what the request is.
Thanks,
| Curve mapping |

hey sue, glad to hear you enjoyed the trip to tennessee.
it sounds extremely relaxing.
you don't sound too certain about the job in seattle.
are you not thrilled about it?
if not but you really want to be in seattle, maybe you could take it on the hope that you may find something better in a couple of months.
have you been thinking about the possibility of tennessee?
have you been looking for jobs outside of the energy industry?
$350 is great.
i told my mom to be expecting you to drop by.
if shes not there you can tape it to the back door.
also, my mom said you dropped off the vacuum cleaner... thanks so much.
gotta run, but i will be in touch.
keep me posted on all your decisions.

We know how interested all of you are in the Retention & Severance Plan, so we want to update you on its status.
As many of you know, we have been working with members of the Creditors' Committee and their consultants since December to formulate a Retention & Severance Plan, and we formally presented the plan to the committee on Friday, February 22.
We had hoped the committee would approve the plan quickly so that we could file it with the bankruptcy court and share the details of the plan with you before the end of the month.
We know that many of you have career options outside of Enron and that the Retention & Severance Plan may impact your decision to stay or to leave.
We sincerely regret to inform you that approval of the plan for debtor companies is delayed.
We're learning that, in bankruptcy, most things don't move as quickly as we are accustomed.
The committee outlined some concerns related to our proposed plan, but we are confident we will be able to reach agreement with the creditors on those concerns.
The Creditors' Committee fully supports the implementation of a Retention & Severance Plan.
Such plans align the company's objectives with the goals of the creditors and are fairly standard in bankruptcy.
These plans are designed as a way to preserve and maximize value for the estate.
The Creditors' Committee also understands that time is of the essence for getting a plan in place and has established a subcommittee to expedite their review and approval process.
To that end, we are meeting regularly with the subcommittee.
We intend to work hand-in-hand with them to reach agreement on an acceptable plan as quickly as possible.
This is currently our top priority, bar none!
When we filed for bankruptcy, we did not fully grasp how tedious the process of developing an acceptable plan would be.
Unfortunately, that lack of understanding led management to set unrealistic expectations about how quickly a plan might be in place.
We now know that it takes significant time, resources and effort to understand, identify and gather the massive volume of required details, to formulate that information into a reasonable program, and to prepare a rationale and compelling presentation.
The process mirrors the most time-intensive business presentation or deal negotiation with which Enron has been involved.
That serves only as an explanation - it is not intended as an excuse.
We remain committed to working with the Creditors' Committee until we can reach agreement on a plan.
We anticipate that negotiation process will take another week or so, and have targeted the week of March 11 to file a motion to adopt a plan with the bankruptcy court.
We will continue to hold retention and severance as our number one priority until a plan is approved by the bankruptcy court.
With respect to non-debtor companies, or those companies not in bankruptcy, new severance plans are being approved and will be rolled out to employees in those companies in the very near future.
In the meantime, we have been working to finalize merit increases and promotions across the entire organization and plan to communicate those to employees next week.
And of course, we will update you on retention and severance as soon as possible.

So i was kind bummed after talkin to ya on IM.
I'm at DV now..about to start work.
You know...we have both made a lot of progress.
I'm glad we have been there for each other thru all of this.
Maybe I'm bummed that when I made the comment you immediately thought the worst...not that you see us going back to where we were..but that it brought things back so quickly and that perhaps you could see you or me reverting back to old ways.
And that part of my life still feels like a fresh wound.
I realize that I am still struggling with things..and while I respect that I have come far...I know I still have to make good choices on a daily basis with my life and live with integrity.
Coming back to H will be very interesting for me...I can only hope for the best and that the experience of being away and having time to think has made a difference for me.
Take care, I know you are sick and out of sorts today.
HOpe you feel better, Mo.

As a reminder, the sheets are located at O:\CurveValidation\Estate Reporting\Gas organized by region (Progress Summary - East, Progress Summary - Texas, etc.).

The following is a web address of a magazine based in Whistler, Canada.
A woman that I work closely with, Janet Love Morrison, is a huge human rights activist and during December's semester break she traveled to Burma.
Her article is the 1st in a series of 4 and is the feature article, titled "Following the Path of Aung San Suu Kye."
i thought it was rather impressive and so is she; I truly admire her courage.
www.piquenewsmagazine.com Take a look as soon as possible... its the feature of the week and may not be up much longer.
I will let you know when her next is published and posted.

Hello Susan - This is Bobby here at Enron.
I work in retail power in EES.
We met ages ago here in Houston.
I started working here at Enron a month ago.
I work on 6 but make it to 31 and 32 from time to time to talk to people there.
Hope things are good on your end.
Bobby ps.
If you see Joel Bennett around, tell him I said hi.
(I can't remember which floor he's on.)

Please roll out the physical index products tomorrow.

Thanks,

Hey Susan, I hope things are going great!
Do you remember Nathan Thomas?
He is getting married on August 11th(I will be one of the groomsmen).
I thought you might be interested.
Have fun, Paul PS - How are things going?

Susan, Haven't bought your tickets yet, but have a feeling I won't be able to do anything about you getting in at 9:00pm Sunday.
I will ask though.
You should be leaving on Tuesday and returning to Houston on Sunday (and leaving Korea on Sunday).
The total air fare should be $962.
Shoot me a quick e mail if this is not ok.
Otherwise, I will plan on purchasing your tickets this afternoon.
Thanks!

Susan, We bought your ticket yesterday.
I will either put it in the mail to you today, or if I do end up making it to the states, I will mail it from there.
Where do you want to go when you get here?
