Key Decisions The ExCom voted to move $100k of operating funds to an endowment for a new award. The ExCom voted that a new name (not Otto Laporte) should be chosen for this award. In the coming year, the Award committee (currently the Fluid Dynamics Prize committee) should establish the award criteria, making sure to distinguish the criteria from those associated with the Batchelor prize. The committee should suggest appropriate wording for the award application and make a recommendation on the naming of the award. The ExCom voted to move Newsletter publication to the first weeks of June and December each year. The ExCom voted to continue the Ad Hoc Committee on Media and Public Relations for two more years (through 2010). The ExCom voted that $15,000 per year in 2009 and 2010 be allocated for Media and Public Relations activities. Most of these funds would be applied toward continuing to use AIP media services in support of news releases and Virtual Pressroom activities related to the annual DFD meeting. Meeting Discussion 1.

However, while the government almost appeared to slow to a halt during the transition, news of exciting physics research results continued unabated. During the APS March Meeting in Seattle, a marathon session was held on the new superconductor, magnesium diboride, while at the April Meeting in Washington, DC, excitement was high as the first reports of new precision measurements of the cosmic microwave background strongly supported the idea of an early inflationary universe. Other lead stories included the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) results confirming solar neutrino oscillations, the establishment of CP violation in B-meson decay, and the demonstration of bringing pulses of light to a standstill in such a way that all of the information that they contain is stored in atomic excitations and later recoverable. Heroic efforts by the APS Editorial Office staff throughout the year allowed the completion of the Physical Review On-line Archive, PROLA, so that every paper that APS has ever published is now on-line and readily accessible. Within PROLA, each paper is linked to previous papers to which it refers and also to subsequent papers that cite it.
