==== Other notes ====
  * Temperature is somewhat between 20 to 30 degree
  * Local people go to beach already and you can too, please prepare the swim suit or the like
===== 3.Safety and equipment handling=====
  * Use slipper in the lab, no bare foot (avoiding the electronic shock)
  * There are two kinds of AC in the lab (220V and 110V/100V), very careful when plug in the equipment


==== Handling the equipments ====
  * No bare foot inside of the lab 
  * Use gloves for handling the scintillator and wavelength shifting fiber
  * Use safety glasses when soldering; the temperature is set around 350 degree. No bare hand touch.  

===== 4. Reading materials =====
**Most of the books are available at ICISE**
