A TECHNOLOGY UPDATE FROM IT'S MARK PICKERING. . .

Sametime, a new communication tool, is coming to screens across Europe and, 
in the future, throughout Enron's offices worldwide.   What is Sametime? It's 
a simple tool that integrates with Lotus Notes to allow you to send and 
receive text messages to/from Enron colleagues. Sametimeis not a replacement 
for email or the phone, but rather it should complement both exiting 
communication tools. This is a tool that will be of most value to people who 
spend a lot of time at their PC, but who want to ask a question of someone, 
conduct a simple conversation or send a message in real time, without having 
to pick up the phone or compose an email message.
Sametimegives users instant messaging capabilities. The green square tells 
you who is online and able to receive a message, while the red dot gives a 
simple indication of people who may be away from their desk (see screen 
sample below).
I use the system everyday and find it invaluable in communicating with my 
team. It also comes into its own when communicating with people in other 
offices, especially Houston (you can even use it on the road!). A nice 
feature is that you can fire off a message to someone and know it will sit on 
their screen until they read it.  Sametime'susefulness falls under the 
+Network, effect, i.e. the more people online, the greater the benefit.
Sametime will be available on your desktop in the not too distant future, so 
watch out for further details.  Looking forward to sametiming with you soon!

ENRON NIGHT AT THE RACES MAKES AN IMPACT IN THE COMMUNITY

Last month the Enron Social Committee hosted an evening at the Greyhound 
Races in Wimbledon.  The proceeds of the evening, combined with a 'matching' 
donation from Enron, raised o1,600 for The Battersea Dogs' Home.  With the 
charity spending an average o530 per dog that comes into the home, the money 
was gratefully received by BDH.  Thanks to all who helped make a difference!

ENRON SECURITY

In the last couple of weeks items of property have been stolen from staff 
members' desks. All
staff are reminded that it is their responsibility to secure all valuables at 
the end of each working day

During the last 48 hours security officers have removed 8 mobile phones, 6 
Palm Pilots and two laptops
for safekeeping. All of these items were left unattended on desks.

40 minutes and an added charge of o8 for a French pedicure.  If you schedule 
a manicure and pedicure together you will receive at 10% discount.  Payment

QUIZ OF THE WEEK

A man asks his friend to guess the ages of his three nieces. The uncle gives 
his friend a clue: the product of the nieces' ages is 2450. 

Being a smart guy the friend concludes after some math work that he needs 
some additional information. 
He is told that the sum of the nieces' ages equals his house number. 

After a while he once again asks for an additional clue. The uncle tells him 
that all the nieces are younger than himself (the friend).

How old is the friend?
And in what house number does he live?

(with thanks to Gunvor Bay from the Oslo office for providing the Quiz of the 
Week)


AND THE WINNER OF LAST WEEK'S QUIZ IS. . .
