It's not terrible for us, but Michael Backfish discovered an issue with 
the shielding in the MTEST line when operated in low energy pion mode 
above 30 GeV.  I think you may be able to see the elog entry:

which says that they will restrict the energy to -30 to +30 GeV.  He 
says they may be able to ease this restriction with further review by 
next week, but as of yesterday afternoon, we're only going up to 30 GeV 
in low energy pion mode.  At the moment, we're restricted to 0 GeV by an 
accelerator problem described here:
