Thank you, Sven! Being scared about giving away the trophy due to the absence of Jed, Sven, and Todd, we had some additional training sessions and a shaman-like dance with the Argonne geese in order to get rainy weather on that day. This apparently worked out, as some of our competitors feared the water and decided not to compete. I recommend you try the same next year, we are happy to help in finding a nice costume for the dance with the geese. :-) Best regards, Karli On 08/27/2013 12:00 PM, Sven Leyffer wrote: > Please join me in congratulating our MCS running team (Karl > Rupp, Patrick Sanan, Krishna Narayanan, Boyana Norris, Tom Peterka, > and Jesse Lopez) who won Argonne's prestigious divisional running trophy > for a third year in a row: > >> MCS won with a score of 18 >> NBL came in second with 51 >> ES came in third with 69. >> >> Scoring was as follows: >> First place gets 1 point, second place gets 2 points, etc. >> Walkers and runners are scored separately. >> Per division, the runner's score is multiplied by the number of >> walkers and the walker's score is multiplied by the number of runners. >> These two are added and the lowest score is the winner. > > ï¿½ our team finished first, second, third, 6th, 7th, and 11th.

Upcoming Webinar: Data Management for Science, by ESnet & Globus Online
by Ian Foster 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

Dear colleagues, I’m writing to let you know of an upcoming webinar that is likely of interest to you. Big Data Management for Science, presented by Globus Online and ESnet Target audience: Research scientists who deal with data of any size Date: Thursday, August 22, 1 p.m CST Length: one hour This is the first in a series of webinars presented by ESnet and Globus Online. We invite scientists in all disciplines, as well as any IT staff supporting researchers, to join us for this strategic session on cutting-edge data transfer, sharing and mobility tools as well as best practices for managing data. Presenters include: Steve Tuecke, Deputy Director of the Computation Institute and Globus Project Co-Lead Eli Dart, Network Engineer, ESnet Yasmin Carter, Anatomy and Cell Biology researcher at University of Saskatchewan Andrew J. McElrone, Research Scientist/Adjunct Assistant Professor, USDA-Agricultural Research Service, Department of Viticulture & Enology, University of California-Davis We will describe how researchers can deal with data management challenges in a simple and robust manner using Globus Online and ESnet. Globus Online makes it easy to move, sync, and share big data using just a web browser, underpinned by ESnet’s reliable, high-speed network infrastructure, as well its tools for vastly improving network performance for scientists. Join us to learn how your peers use these advanced services to enhance their science within labs and with collaborators around the world. Register here: https://www.globusonline.org/events/big-data-management-for-science-joint-e… Hope to see you there! Best, Ian
