Hi all, I just happen to have a VR shift during the VR Forum on December 10 and would like to go to the forum, if possible. If anyone is definitely NOT going to this forum , would you be willing to cover/trade a shift? Thanks, Lorna

Hi all, FYI a note from Evelyn re: IEEE difficulties. Betty From: Evelyn Bruneau [mailto:Evelyn.Bruneau@ad.umanitoba.ca] Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 8:42 AM To: Shaun Mulvey; betty_braaksma(a)umanitoba.ca; Norma Godavari (ngodava2(a)gmail.com) Cc: Kristen Kruse Subject: IEEE Xplore I was able to finally get connected to their site, there I found a note stating: "IEEE is experiencing significant power disruptions to their U.S. facilities in New Jersey and New York. As a result, you may experience disruptions in service from IEEE. We apologizes for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience." I tried again and it appears to be working-for now. However, I've added a note to the A-Z list and will send out a notice through the Electronic Resources Blog. Evelyn Evelyn Bruneau B.H.
