The theme of the 2010 Physics Field Day is Lasers! In celebration of the 50th Anniversery of the Laser. The rulebook can be found here.

On Friday September 18: Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle will hold an interactive session with students to talk about his tenure as engineer and switch to politics.

Follow this link for his biography: http://www.co.douglas.ne.us/omaha/mayor/about-the-mayor. I would encourage you to attend as this would be an excellent opportunity to get to know the personal story of a leader in the Omaha community. Please plan on attending and bring at least someone else to attend this seminar.
