I.  Agenda:

               1) News: (1) Run status: Bill; (2) two more week shifts: Renee and Jerome
               2) HFT installation: Flemming
               3) Run13 issues: Nu
               4) RP II* proposal: All
               5) AOB

             II. Brief Summary and action Items:

              1) Attandance: Xin, Bedanga, Jerome, Jamie, Gene, Flemming, Carl, Renee, Huan, Nu
              2) Run status: Bill things are going well. MTD trigger is not ready. 
              3) Run13 two more week shifts: Renee and Jerome: non-US institutes not need to full fill the additional shifts this year, but they
                  should do it in next run.
              4) Run14: perhaps we will request the 15GeV AuAu at the beginning even it is a 15-cryo-week run. MTD program need tobe discussed.
              5) RP II* proposal: Nu send the proposal to Berndt and request Bernd to call a meeting including BNL management, C-AD, STAR to discuss 
                  about the details of the proposal and the funding issues.
              6) PAC talks: STAR should request a talk on 'medium term physics program'. Speakers will be decided later.
              7) FGT: need clear evidences for the success of FGT, we will decide if we need to reinstall the FGT in the near future.
