The Pierre Auger Project and Enhancements
The current status of the scientific results of the Auger Observatory will be
discussed which include spectrum, anisotropy in arrival directions, chemical
composition analyses, and limits on neutrino and photon fluxes. A review of the
Observatory detection systems will be presented. Auger has started the
construction of its second phase which encompasses antennae for radio detection
of cosmic rays, high-elevation telescopes, and surface plus muon detectors.
Details will be presented on the latter, AMIGA (Auger Muons and Infill for the
Ground Array), an Auger project consisting of 85 detector pairs each one
composed of a surface water-Cherenkov detector and a buried muon counter. The
detector pairs are arranged in an array with spacings of 433 and 750 m in order
to perform a detailed study of the 10^17 eV to 10^19 eV spectrum region.
Preliminary results on the performance of the 750 m array of surface detectors
and the first muon counter prototype will be presented.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, VIII Latin American Symposium on Nuclear Physics

The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups (Book Review)
In the book The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups, Daniel Coyle discusses how people work together as part of a group that achieves excellent results. As opposed to this being a book on how individuals lead, the author focuses on how people interact successfully and productively with each other; thereby, giving leaders three skills that can help hone successful teams. His research identified three skills that propel effective teamwork: Build Safety, Share Vulnerability, and Establish Purpose. This book review will briefly describe these skills and how the book provides a solid base for leaders seeking to lead teams
Using Published Arbitration Decisions to Develop Teaching Examples, Cases and Exercises
A sample of arbitration decisions are published every year on a wide variety of topics including workplace fighting, theft, insubordination, attendance problems, alcohol or drug abuse, and sexual harassment. These published cases provide interesting, timely, and complex examples of actual events. Using this material as a basis, unique, realistic cases and exercises can be developed to focus on many different workplace topics
