IN: Per my conversation with Peter earlier today, below is a list of classes that Mark may want to coordinate his Houston secondment with so he can attend some. Internal Classes: Basics of Risk Management: 4/26 - 4/27 filling up-act quickly Derivatives 1: 4/17 - 4/18 filling up-act quickly 5/8 - 5/9 - lots of room still here The internal classes book up quickly. Everything between now and April is already full with large waiting lists. If he is really interested he should try and sign up for classes immediately. He can do that by going to the "Development Center" Icon (aka "Ernie"). Then he can sign up on the computer. External NYMEX Class: I checked with the local NYMEX office, and their next classes are as follows: June 7 - Introduction to NYMEX Products June 14 - Intermediate Hedging (intro class a prerequisite) June 17 - Intermediate Options (intro class a prerequisite) Like the internal classes, the NYMEX classes also fill quickly. Their February classes are already full. As I also mentioned, the first weekend in April is when the Roundtop Antiques Festival is. It is a great way to see the countryside outside of Houston, all the local towns around Roundtop also have antique festivals at that time. The wildflowers should be in bloom, and that is alway impressive. With the cold weather and rain, we might have a really good year for wildflowers this year. Anyway, the above may help Mark get the most out of his time in Houston.

IN: Hi girls! Just wanted everyone to check their calendars for some upcoming events. Madeline's baptism is going to be Saturday, April 6th during the 5:30pm mass. We plan on having a little celebration at our house afterwards. If you can't make it, we understand, but we'd love to have you come. We talked about doing Stacey's baby shower the next weekend, April 13 at Kathy's house. Does that date still work for everyone? Let us know soon so we can start making plans. Talk to you soon. Angela P.S. for Chris - If you think you can come for one of the weekends, you should choose Stacey's shower - it won't hurt my feelings! :) ===== Angela & Brad McDonald ABMcDon@yahoo.com

IN: Don, I have been working with Jeanie Slone on trying to resolve the holiday and overtime payment issues that we have been having with regard to your staff not being properly paid for their overtime and holiday work from Thanksgiving forward. Unfortunately, I was just told that we can no longer pay any "incentive pay" to previous or current employees as per our bankruptcy lawyers, and at there may be problems because they are "exempt" employees who are typically not paid overtime. However, I assure you that we are working to try and resolve this matter as soon as possible, and I will follow-up with you as soon as I have further clarification from the attorney's. If you have any other questions, please call me on Amy Fitzpatrick's number (I am sitting at her desk today) at X52729. Thanks,
