Polarization in p-p elastic scattering at large four-momentum transfers
New results are presented from the continuation of an experiment designed to study the polarization in elastic p-p scattering at large four- momentum transfers. A high intensity unpolarized proton beam of momentum 12.3 GeV/c was incident on a propanediol polarized porton target and both final-state protons were detected and momentum analyzed in multiwire proportional chamber spectrometers. The measurements spanned the t range 1.5 < absolute t < 6.2 (GeV/ c)$sup 2$. The results are discussed in the framework of optical, exchange, and parton models. (AIP)

Lecture archiving on a larger scale at the University of Michigan and CERN
The ATLAS Collaboratory Project at the University of Michigan has been a leader in the area of collaborative tools since 1999. Its activities include the development of standards, software and hardware tools for lecture archiving, and making recommendations for videoconferencing and remote teaching facilities. Starting in 2006 our group became involved in classroom recordings, and in early 2008 we spawned CARMA, a University-wide recording service. This service uses a new portable recording system that we developed. Capture, archiving and dissemination of rich multimedia content from lectures, tutorials and classes are increasingly widespread activities among universities and research institutes. A growing array of related commercial and open source technologies is becoming available, with several new products introduced in the last couple years. As the result of a new close partnership between U-M and CERN IT, a market survey of these products was conducted and a summary of the results are presented here. It is informing an ambitious effort in 2009 to equip many CERN rooms with automated lecture archiving systems, on a much larger scale than before. This new technology is being integrated with CERN's existing webcast, CDS, and Indico applications.

A Study of Inclusive Proton Polarization
The authors propose to measure the polarization of the outgoing proton in the inclusive reaction p + p {yields} p {up_arrow} + X in the region .98 > x{sub R} > .6. The measurements would include beam momenta from p{sub LAB} = 50 GeV/c to p{sub LAB} = 400 GeV/c at t = -.3 (GeV/c){sup 2}, -.8 (GeV/c){sup 2}, -1.4 (GeV/c){sup 2}, and -3.0 (GeV/c){sup 2} over the range .6 < x{sub F} < .95. The experiment would use the existing E313 polarimeter and internal target spectrometer.

Advances in the Study of Spin Effects in Nucleon-Nucleon Scattering at Small and Intermediate Momentum Transfers
There has been remarkable progress made in the field of high energy physics in the past five years. We have recently witnessed the discovery of new quantum numbers, the spectra of particles associated with these quantum numbers, and a much improved understanding of the role that all quantum numbers play in high energy interactions. With the wide assortment of experiments and studies being conducted in high energy physics at any one time, it is very easy for one to get the impression that, the activity in the field is highly unfocused. On the one hand, it is precisely this apparent unfocused nature that has given rise to much of the excitement and richness of the field. On the other hand, as one examines the situation more closely, one finds that much of the effort in the field is indeed directed toward the solution of a few central problems. One of these problems which I will continually refer to today is that of understanding the details of the structure of the elementary particles. This problem—one of the most fascinating and most difficult problems ever tackled by man-can be approached from several different angles.

RECENT RESULTS ON CP-VIOLATION AT THE BABAR AND BELLE B-FACTORIES
New results on CP violation measurements performed on events collected at the Υ(4S) in upto 432 fb-1 of data at the BABAR experiment and upto 770 fb-1 of data collected at the Belle experiment. The measurements provide new constraints on the unitarity triangle angles γ and β. The measurements presented include: results from BABAR and Belle on CPV using Dalitz plot analyses, measurements of the CKM angle γ using a GLW analysis of B → DK± decays and from using B → D*°K- decays and results on yCP using D° mixing.

SLD results on B physics
Results on B-lifetimes, Bdo and Bso mixing, and B decay charm counting studies from the SLD experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center are presented. These results which exploit the small stable beam spots and high precision detector and the polarized electron beam are among the most precise measurements to date.

Chargino and Neutralino Mass Reconstruction for Small Mass Difference Non-Universal Sugra Points
A collapsible, movable apparatus, for containing health-sports devices and equipment, which includes a telescoping post support having at least two telescoping segments and a ratchet device for moving each of the adjacent telescoping segments in relation to each other. There is a support adopted to fit slideably on the top telescoping segment without overlapping onto the next telescoping segment. A large horizontally-positioned ring is mounted on the support. A platform is pivotally mounted under the ring so as to be able to swing downwardly when unconnected from the ring. Also, a basketball backboard is vertically mounted to the top portion of the top telescoping segment. The bottom end of the telescoping post is adapted to fit into a tube positioned in the ground or other horizontal surface.

Monolithic CMOS pixel detector for international linear collider vertex detection
A monolithic CMS pixel detector is under development for an ILC experiment. This chronopixel array provides a time stamp resolution of one bunch crossing, a critical feature for background suppression. The status of this effort is summarized.
