Experimental Philosophy of Connexivity
philpapers.org/archive/PFEEPO.pdf (PDF, 9035 words)
While Classical Logic (CL) used to be the gold standard for evaluating the rationality of human reasoning, certain non-theorems of CL—like Aristotle's (∼(? → ∼?)) and Boethius' theses ((? → ?) → ∼(? → ∼?))—appear intuitively rational and plausible. Connexive logics have been developed to capture the underlying intuition that conditionals whose antecedents contradict their consequents, should be false. We present results of two experiments (total ? = 72), the first to investigate connexive principles and related formulae systematically. Our data suggest that connexive logics provide more plausible rationality frameworks for human reasoning compared to CL. Moreover, we experimentally investigate two approaches for validating connexive principles within the framework of coherence-based probability logic [29]. Overall, we observed good agreement between our predictions and the data, but especially for Approach 2.

On fatal competition and the nature of distributive inferences
lingphil.scripts.mit.edu/papers/fox/bar-levEtAl_23_On-fatal-c.pdf (PDF, 14481 words)
Denić (2021) observes that the availability of distributive inferences — for sentences with disjunction embedded in the scope of a universal quantifier — depends on the size of the domain quantified over as it relates to the number of disjuncts. Based on her observations, she argues that probabilistic considerations play a role in the computation of implicatures. In this paper we explore a different possibility. We argue for a modification of Denić's generalization, and provide an explanation that is based on intricate logical computations but is blind to probabilities. The explanation is based on the observation that when the domain size is no larger than the number of disjuncts, universal and existential alternatives are equivalent if distributive inferences are obtained. We argue that under such conditions a general ban on 'fatal competition' (Magri 2009a,b; Spector 2014) is activated thereby predicting distributive inferences to be unavailable.

There are two things called contexts that play important but distinct roles in standard accounts of language and communication. The first—call these compositional contexts—feature in a semantic theory. Compositional contexts are sequences of parameters that play a role in characterizing compositional semantic values for a given language, and in characterizing how such compositional semantic values determine a proposition expressed by a given sentence. The second—call these context sets—feature in a pragmatic theory. Context sets are abstract representations of the conversational states that serve to determine the compositional contexts relevant for interpreting a speech-act and that such speech-acts act upon. In this paper, I'll consider how, given mutual knowledge of the information codified in a compositional semantic theory, an assertion of a sentence serves to update the context set. There is a standard account of how such conversational updating occurs. However, while this account has much to recommend it, I'll argue that it needs to be revised in light of certain natural discourses.

Consequence and Signification in Fourteenth-Century Logic
www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~slr/Consequence-signification.pdf (PDF, 11434 words)
Forty years ago, Niels Green-Pedersen listed five different accounts of valid consequence, variously promoted by logicians in the early fourteenth century and discussed by Niels Drukken of Denmark in his commentary on Aristotle's Prior Analytics, written in Paris in the late 1330s. Two of these arguably fail to give defining conditions: truth preservation was shown by Buridan and others to be neither necessary nor sufficient; incompatibility of the opposite of the conclusion with the premises is merely circular if incompatibility is analysed in terms of consequence. Buridan was perhaps the first to define consequence in terms of preservation of what we might dub verification, that is, signifying as things are. John Mair pinpointed a sophism which threatens to undermine this proposal. Bradwardine turned it around: he suggested that a necessary condition on consequence was that the premises signify everything the conclusion signifies. Dumbleton gave counterexamples to Bradwardine's postulates in which the conclusion arguably signifies more than, or even completely differently from the premises. Yet a long-standing tradition held that some species of validity depend on the conclusion being in some way contained in the premises. We explore the connection between signification and consequence and its role in solving the insolubles.

Recursive numeral systems optimize the trade-off between lexicon size and average morphosyntactic complexity
ucb316b4c3ab8d90554925f6ca2f.dl.dropbo...gJPDyllgItzNN1aDVe1Jt3wKWKgyo/file?dl=1 (PDF, 4836 words)
Human languages vary in terms of which meanings they lexicalize, but there are important constraints on this variation. It has been argued that languages are under the pressure to be simple (e.g., to have a small lexicon size) and to allow for an informative (i.e., precise) communication with their lexical items, and that which meanings get lexicalized may be explained by languages finding a good way to trade off between these two pressures ([ ] and much subsequent work). However, in certain semantic domains, it is possible to reach very high levels of informativeness even if very few meanings from that domain are lexicalized. This is due to productive morphosyntax, which may allow for construction of meanings which are not lexicalized. Consider the semantic domain of natural numbers: many languages lexicalize few natural number meanings as monomorphemic expressions, but can precisely convey any natural number meaning using morphosyntactically complex numerals. In such semantic domains, lexicon size is not in direct competition with informativeness. What explains which meanings are lexicalized in such semantic domains? We will propose that in such cases, languages are (near-)optimal solutions to a different kind of trade-off problem: the trade-off between the pressure to lexicalize as few meanings as possible (i.e, to minimize lexicon size) and the pressure to produce as morphosyntactically simple utterances as possible (i.e, to minimize average morphosyntactic complexity of utterances).

Modal-Logical Reconstructions of Thought Experiments
philsci-archive.pitt.edu/21663/1/LogicTEsPittsburghVersion.pdf (PDF, 5671 words)
In his well-known book Thought Experiments (1992), R.A. Sorensen provides two modal-logical schemata for two different types of 'destructive' thought experiments, baptised the Necessity Refuter and the Possibility Refuter. Regarding his schemata, Sorensen (1992, p. 132) advances the following caveat: Don't worry about whether this is the uniquely correct scheme. The adequacy of a classification system is more a question of efficiency and suggestiveness. A good scheme consolidates knowledge in a way that minimizes the demand on your memory and expedites the acquisition of new knowledge by raising helpful leading questions. Both the Necessity Refuter and the Possibility Refuter consist of five premises, which are claimed to be inconsistent (ibid,, p. 135, 153). Besides clarity about the logical structure of thought experiments, another virtue of the modal-logical schemata is, Sorensen submits, the following (ibid, p. 136): Since the above five premises are jointly inconsistent, one cannot hold all five. This means that there are at most five consistent responses to the set. Sorensen then discusses the five possible responses, each of which rejects one premise. We concur with Sorensen that systematisations of the arguments accompanying thought experiments should be judged by their usefulness, such as classifying different responses. If the premises are inconsistent, then at least one premise must be given up; but if they are consistent, they can all be held. Indeed, we claim that sticto sensu both these modal-logical schemata are consistent, undermining the usefulness of the systematisation.

Dynamic Semantics versus Dynamic Propositionalism
www.maltewiller.net/DS_vs_DP.pdf (PDF, 6945 words)
Assertions, so Stalnaker's (1978) familiar narrative goes, express propositions and are made in context; in fact, context and what is said frequently affect each other. Since language has context-sensitive expressions, which proposition some given assertion expresses may depend on the context in which it is made. Assertions, in turn, affect the context, and they do so by adding the proposition expressed by that assertion to the context.

How should your opinion change in response to the opinion of an epistemic peer? We show that the pooling rule known as "upco" is the unique answer satisfying some natural desiderata. If your revised opinion will influence your opinions on other matters by Jeffrey conditionalization, then upco is the only standard pooling rule that ensures the order in which peers are consulted makes no difference. Popular proposals like linear pooling, geometric pooling, and harmonic pooling cannot boast the same. In fact, no alternative to upco can if it possesses four minimal properties which these proposals share.

'Unless' is 'Or', Unless '¬A Unless A' is Invalid
dialectica.philosophie.ch/dialectica/article/download/18/18 (PDF, 13519 words)
The proper translation of "unless" into intuitionistic formalisms is examined. After a brief examination of intuitionistic writings on "unless", and on translation in general, and a close examination of Dummett's use of "unless" in Elements of Intuitionism (1975b), I argue that the correct intuitionistic translation of "A unless B" is no stronger than "¬? → ?". In particular, "unless" is demonstrably weaker than disjunction. I conclude with some observations regarding how this shows that one's choice of logic is methodologically prior to translation from informal natural language to formal systems.

Islamic Contradictory Theology
etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/12186/3/Ahsan2022PhD.pdf (PDF, 111508 words)
There are two overarching aims of the five collated papers that make up my thesis. The first is to demonstrate that making sense of an ineffable Islamic God in virtue of classical logic and various truth theories (under the purview of analytic philosophy) motivates a theological contradiction. The second is to offer a solution to this problem. I spend a substantial part of my thesis establishing the first of these aims. The reason for this is twofold. Firstly, it is to illustrate the incompatibility between an ineffable God of Islam and various modes of logical and metaphysical inquiry that fall under the purview of analytic philosophy. Although, it becomes increasingly evident that we cannot philosophically make sense of an absolute ineffable God, my inquiry still bears relevance. It offers a comprehensive insight into the logical and metaphysical perspectives that are responsible for motivating the theological contradiction in question. Secondly, fleshing out the various logical and metaphysical perspectives helps lay the theoretical groundwork for the solution.

That Does Not Compute: David Lewis on Credence and Chance
philsci-archive.pitt.edu/21631/1/ViceMini.pdf (PDF, 5293 words)
Like Lewis, many philosophers hold reductionist accounts of chance (on which claims about chance are to be understood as claims that certain patterns of events are instantiated) and maintain that rationality requires that credence should defer to chance (in the sense that under certain circumstances one's credence in an event must coincide with the chance of that event). It is a shortcoming of an account of chance if it implies that this norm of rationality is unsatisfiable by computable agents. This shortcoming is more common than one might have hoped.

Grounding identity in existence facts: A reply to Wilhelm
www.profneilmehta.com/uploads/2/6/6/7/...ounding_identity_in_existence_facts.pdf (PDF, 2116 words)
Isaac Wilhelm (2020) compares two answers to this question: (i) the fact that the mug is self-identical (for example) is grounded in the fact that the mug exists; (ii) the fact that the mug is self-identical is grounded in the mug itself. Wilhelm argues that (i) results in a troubling disunity in our account of what grounds identity facts, and concludes that (ii) is the better answer (§2-§3). He takes this conclusion to have a broader significance. For (ii) is not available to fact-grounders, who hold that grounding obtains only between facts; (ii) is only available to entity-grounders, who think that grounding can also obtain between entities of various other kinds: objects, properties, events, and so on. Wilhelm concludes that this gives us a reason to be entity-grounders. Here I rebut Wilhelm's argument. I show that (i) is not the only answer that commits us to a disunity; (ii) brings with it a disunity of the very same kind. The advocate of (ii) has a natural way of restoring unity – but this maneuver is equally available to the advocate of (i), leaving neither theorist with any particular advantage (§4).

Expected utility theory on mixture spaces without the completeness axiom
davidmccarthy.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/mccarthy-mikkola-thomas2021.pdf (PDF, 20564 words)
A mixture preorder is a preorder on a mixture space (such as a convex set) that is compatible with the mixing operation. In decision theoretic terms, it satisfies the central expected utility axiom of strong independence. We consider when a mixture preorder has a multi-representation that consists of real-valued, mixture-preserving functions. If it does, it must satisfy the mixture continuity axiom of Herstein and Milnor (1953). Mixture continuity is sufficient for a mixture-preserving multi-representation when the dimension of the mixture space is countable, but not when it is uncountable. Our strongest positive result is that mixture continuity is sufficient in conjunction with a novel axiom we call countable domination, which constrains the order complexity of the mixture preorder in terms of its Archimedean structure. We also consider what happens when the mixture space is given its natural weak topology. Continuity (having closed upper and lower sets) and closedness (having a closed graph) are stronger than mixture continuity. We show that continuity is necessary but not sufficient for a mixture preorder to have a mixture-preserving multi-representation. Closedness is also necessary; we leave it as an open question whether it is sufficient. We end with results concerning the existence of mixture-preserving multi-representations that consist entirely of strictly increasing functions, and a

True Contradictions in Theology
consequently.org/papers/tcit.pdf (PDF, 8066 words)
In The Contradictory Christ, Jc Beall argues that paraconsistent logic provides a way to show how the central claims of Christology can all be true, despite their paradoxical appearances. For Beall, claims such as "Christ is peccable" and "Christ is impeccable" are both true, with no change of subject matter or ambiguity of meaning of any term involved in each claim. Since to say that Christ is impeccable is to say that Christ is not peccable, these two claims are contradictory, and so, for Beall the conjunction "Christ is peccable and Christ is not peccable" is a true contradiction. This is a radical and original view of the incarnation, and a revisionary view of what is permissible for theological reasoning.

Internalism and the Determinacy of Mathematics
www.danielwaxman.com/files/internalism.pdf (PDF, 9806 words)
A major challenge in the philosophy of mathematics is to explain how mathematical language can pick out unique structures and acquire determinate content. In recent work, Button and Walsh have introduced a view they call 'internalism', according to which mathematical content is explained by internal categoricity results formulated and proven in second-order logic. In this paper, we critically examine the internalist response to the challenge and discuss the philosophical significance of internal categoricity results. Surprisingly, as we argue, while internalism arguably explains how we pick out unique mathematical structures, this does not suffice to account for the determinacy of mathematical discourse.

Mathematical Modality An investigation of set-theoretic contingency
andrew-bacon.github.io/papers/Mathematical%20Modality.pdf (PDF, 23526 words)
A increasing amount of contemporary philosophy of mathematics posits, and theorizes in terms of special kinds of mathematical modality. The goal of this paper is to bring recent work on higher-order metaphysics to bear on the investigation of these modalities. The main focus of the paper will be views that posit mathematical contingency or indeterminacy about statements that concern the 'width' of the set theoretic universe, such as Cantor's continuum hypothesis. In the higher-order framework I show that contingency about the width of the set-theoretic universe refutes two orthodoxies concerning the structure of modal reality: the view that the broadest necessity has a logic of S5, and the 'Leibniz biconditionals' stating that what is possible, in the broadest sense of possible, is what is true in some possible world. Nonetheless, I argue that the underlying picture of modal set-theory is coherent and has natural models.

Many-Sorted Logic
plato.stanford.edu/entries/logic-many-sorted/ (HTML, 16494 words)
Classical logic is the appropriate formal language for describing mathematical structures containing a single universe or domain of discourse. By contrast, many-sorted logic (MSL) allows quantification over a variety of domains (called sorts). For this reason, it is a suitable vehicle for dealing with statements concerning different types of objects, which are ubiquitous in mathematics, philosophy, computer science, and formal semantics. Each sort groups a unique category of objects (for example, points and straight lines are different types of objects in a 2-sorted structure). Despite the addition of this expressive resource, many-sorted logic "stays inside" first-order logic, so the main metatheorems (completeness, interpolation, and so on) can be proved.

SAT-based model checking is currently one of the most successful approaches to checking very large systems. In its early days, SAT-based (bounded) model checking was mainly used for bug hunting. The introduction of interpolation and IC3\PDR enable efficient complete algorithms that can provide full verification as well. In this paper, we survey several approaches to enhancing SAT-based model checking. They are all based on iteratively computing an over-approximation of the set of reachable system states. They use different mechanisms to achieve scalability and faster convergence.

Wilhelm (2021) has recently defended a criterion for comparing structure of mathematical objects, which he calls Subgroup. He argues that Subgroup is better than SYM , another widely adopted criterion. We argue that this is mistaken; Subgroup is strictly worse than SYM . We then formulate a new criterion that improves on both SYM and Subgroup, answering Wilhelm's criticisms of SYM along the way. We conclude by arguing that no criterion that looks only to the automorphisms of mathematical objects to compare their structure can be fully satisfactory.

A dialogical frame for fictions as hypothetical objects
shs.hal.science/halshs-01216227/document (PDF, 5517 words)
Recent work on the development of a dialogical approach to the logic of fiction stresses the notion of existence as choice. Moreover, this approach to existence has been combined with the notion of ontological dependence as deployed by A. Thomasson's artifactual theory of fiction. In order to implement such a combination within the dialogical frame several predicates of ontological dependence have been defined. However, the definition of such predicates seems to lean on a model-theoretic semantics for modal logic after all. The main aim of the present paper is to set a dialogical frame for the study of fictions in the context of the dialogical approach of CTT recently developed by S. Rahman and N. Clerbout where a fully-interpreted language is unfolded. We will herewith develop the idea that in such a setting fictional entities are understood as hypothetical objects, that is, objects (functions) the existence of which is dependent upon one or more hypotheses that restrict the scope of choices available. We will finish the paper by suggesting that this provides both a natural and genuinely dialogical way to understand R. Frigg's take on scientific models as fictions and a new perspective on Thomasson's notion of generic ontological dependence.

A brief examination of the most recent literature in logic shows that a host of research in this area studies the interface between games, logic and epistemology. These studies provide the basis for ongoing enquiries in the history and philosophy of logic, going from the Indian, the Greek, the Arabic, the Obligationes of the Middle Ages to the most contemporary developments in the fields of theoretical computer science, computational linguistics, artificial intelligence, social sciences and legal reasoning. In fact, a dynamic turn, as Johan van Benthem puts it, is taking place where the epistemic aspects of inference are linked with game theoretical approaches to meaning.

Creation Rate of Dirac Particles at a Point Source
arxiv.org/pdf/2211.16606.pdf (PDF, 8063 words)
Only recently has it been possible to construct a self-adjoint Hamiltonian that involves the creation of Dirac particles at a point source in 3d space. Its definition makes use of an interior-boundary condition. Here, we develop for this Hamiltonian a corresponding theory of the Bohmian configuration. That is, we construct a Markov jump process (Qt)t∈R in the configuration space of a variable number of particles that is |ψt| -distributed at every time t and follows Bohmian trajectories between the jumps. The jumps correspond to particle creation or annihilation events and occur either to or from a configuration with a particle located at the source. The process is the natural analog of Bell's jump process, and a central piece in its construction is the determination of the rate of particle creation. The construction requires an analysis of the asymptotic behavior of the Bohmian trajectories near the source. We find that the particle reaches the source with radial speed 0, but orbits around the source infinitely many times in finite time before absorption (or after emission).

Master of None's Ravi Patel on Doing the Infamous Indian Accent and the Second Coming of Aziz Ansari
By Mallika Rao
Photo: Vincent Sandoval/Getty Images
Ravi Patel's first role as a call-center operator in Michael Bay's Transformers had him working the notorious "Apu" accent. Eight years on and the actor is in the midst of his own transformation, from token Indian to charming disruptor. Patel's splashy 2015 documentary (and soon, feature film) Meet the Patels features his actual family weighing in as he tries to find a wife the vintage, arranged way. He parlayed that naturalism into TV ubiquity of a kind typically elusive to brown men in Hollywood: as an unaccented sous chef on the ABC comedy Grandfathered, and a struggling, lovable — and very real — Indian-American actor on Aziz Ansari's bingeable new comedy, Master of None.
Vulture recently talked to Patel about working with Ansari, marriage, and his conflicted relationship with the infamous accent.
Ravi Patel: From your name, I'm guessing you're Indian.
It's true. Meet the Patels is real for me.
Do you have any thoughts on arranged marriages?
I actually wrote about my parents when the first episode of The Mindy Project's fourth season premiered. I argued that arranged marriages are more romantic than traditional American courtships because they're about fate.
That's interesting. I think about them less so now than when I was researching for Meet the Patels. Four or five years ago, I read everything I could get my hands on and spoke to every major relationship expert in the country.
Any surprising findings?
One of the things some expert told me was that there are these three pillars of a successful relationship, and you put emphasis on different pillars depending on how you're raised. If you're raised like us, with Indian parents, you put emphasis on compatibility and commitment. You also have a higher probability of success. In America, we're conditioned to believe that the main thing that matters is love. We're raised with these concepts of romance, like you see in the movies. Love as a kind of passive experience that you don't really work for. We're raised to believe that you're going to one day be walking into a Starbucks, have coffee spilled on you by some cute girl, and the next thing you know, you're having kids. But love, like anything that's good, requires a work ethic. Learning that actually changed how I looked for love. Previously the No. 1 thing I looked for was spontaneity and the ability to have fun. These three pillars reframed how I looked at people in general. All of a sudden, the No. 1 quality becomes kindness. You look for good people.
Speaking of good people, Aziz Ansari. Have you two known each other long?
When you're an Indian in entertainment, eventually we all meet each other. I'm really close friends with most of the guys from "my class." All the Indian actor dudes, we're all buddies. We know each other. Aziz is not necessarily in that group. He kind of came in from the top. He was immediately successful on Parks and Recreation.
How did you meet?
Through a mutual friend, a comedian. He was like, "I want you to meet my buddy. He just moved to L.A." The next thing I know I'm standing in front of this Indian guy. It was obvious that's why we were meeting. But he was like, "I think you guys should both meet because you're both funny." It was so awkward! I was like, "You're Indian too. Great." I had no idea what to talk to this kid about.
Oh, the stealth Indian setup.
I know. I was like, "Okay, cool. You're a stand-up comedian. Do you do Indian stuff?" He was like, "No. I don't really consider Indianness to be any part of my experience. I don't really talk about it." Now he talks about Indian stuff, which I'm really glad that he does.
You and Aziz are so fun to watch on Master of None, I assumed you were great friends.
We are now, and we have friends in common, but we've never been best buddies. [Master of None co-creator] Alan Yang is a buddy of mine. We play basketball together, we're friends in the comedy scene. They called me up and wanted me to do the role.
Initially I was concerned that the way it was written was really condescending to blue-collar Indian actors. The whole like … basically you shouldn't do an accent or anything that's stereotypical. So [Ansari] and I debated about it. I wrote this really harsh email. I was like, "Hey, man, congrats on the show. I'm flattered, but I can't really do the role based on the way I'm seeing it right now. I understand why you don't want to do an accent and think it's wrong, but from my perspective, I'm one of those guys who's done a lot of stereotypical roles and I'm friends with a lot of guys who continue to do it. I have a lot of sympathy for the grind, working your way up as a blue-collar actor."
That's such an intriguing point. I never thought about the flip side of the accent.
I think it's amazing that Aziz has taken the stance he has. That's exactly the kind I would hope that anyone in his position feels and takes on. But whether you're Indian or not, when you start off, you're only given access to the most stereotypical roles. The same rules apply to a blonde with big boobs — she's only going to get these bimbo roles. If you prove yourself and people can see you have range beyond what you might play based on your looks, you might break out. Everyone has to work out of that. When you do get to a place where you can do broader roles you take advantage of them. You see that as an opportunity. You have to have some degree of respect for these opportunities to have a voice and empower the people who can benefit.
I got Transformers before I was an actor. I didn't have a head shot. I didn't know who Michael Bay was. The whole thing happened because I got asked to replace Aasif Mandvi as an m.c. at this big arts festival. My sister [Geeta Patel, who co-directed Meet the Patels] was one of the producers. I did like 30 to 40 minutes of improv, and they thought I was funny and needed someone onstage. I got like 15 calls the next week. People wanted to cast me in things, but not being an actor, the only impression I could do was this Indian call-center guy. That role was serendipitous because it really catapulted me. Before I had a career, I would have never been in a place to do a film that creates an important dialogue like Meet the Patels.
So you initially turned down the Master of None role?
I did turn it down. He called me up, he's like, "Dude, I don't want to insult people. That's why I want your point of view." I think that was his purpose.
You seem to have broken out of the accent's grip.
My role in Grandfathered has no accent. They wanted a guy who was 50 years old, not Indian. I was auditioning for a different show and [the casting agent] was like, "We're just looking for someone funny. Do you mind coming in? You're not right for it at all, but maybe they'll change role for you."
I don't know if you caught this recent Twitter debate on the critic Emily Nussbaum's account, about how Aziz has made an about-face in talking about these things.
It's really easy as a fan or someone in the media to look at someone like Aziz and be really critical of what their stances are or any lack of action that might be taken in terms of race. I'm all for it. I think that's what creates change. Celebrities deserve some degree of pressure and accountability.
It seems like Aziz is responding in part to the specific challenges he faced landing good roles after Parks and Recreation.
All of us have different complexes when it comes to how we deal with our identity. He's a young Muslim kid who looks very Indian from South Carolina. I guarantee you being Indian has had a massive influence on his life. We all evolve and become increasingly introspective. I have to imagine that Aziz is getting older, and he's in a relationship. He's acknowledging that he doesn't have to ignore being Indian to be recognized as a guy who is talented in America.
Pigeonholing works both ways, right, where self-identification can limit success. Mindy Kaling has talked about not wanting to be the sole representative for an ethnicity because it detracts from the mainstream spirit of what she does.
I think Mindy takes an extreme stance. What you see a lot of is a very extreme point of view between Indians who only hang out with Indians, and conversely Indians who don't really don't want to be around any Indians. For whatever reason, I see this play out more in South Asian females with dating — I can't tell you how many Indian women say, "I don't date Indian men. I don't like Indian men."
In a perfect world, would you prefer there not be these roles with accents, so Indians don't have to make these calculations?
Here's the thing. I love being Indian. I have no issue with being Indian. I aspire to do a random redneck role — I would love to do my version of an Eastbound and Down guy. At the same time, these people with Indian accents, there's creativity infused in all these things. It's not like they're based on real people, but they're based on realities. Those are going to continue to evolve as South Asian Americans continue to become ubiquitous. We're crushing it right now. The roles aren't ideal, but we're headed in the right direction.
Meet the Patels was just picked up by Fox Searchlight to become a feature film. How is that going to work? Will you be casting Indian actors and actresses?
It's not going to be a direct remake, it's just going to be a story based on the documentary. At this point, it might be entirely different. I'm beyond excited to work with Fox Searchlight. It's such an artist-friendly studio, and we want to do what we did with the documentary, which is just be super loose in how we shoot it, do all these experimental things. All we know for sure is we're going to cast mom and dad.
One unique aspect of yours and Aziz's rise is how you're bringing your parents along with you by casting them in these prestige productions. From what I understand, the Patels are as popular as the Ansaris.
It's exhausting. It's insane. I get calls every day from people wanting to cast them in all kinds of things. I'm excited to talk to Aziz about that. I think his experience is similar to mine. What an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do this, and make your family closer.
It strikes me as a very good Indian boy thing to do!
Totally. That's one of the things I love about being a Patel. Family is number one.

Last year I had the privilege of hearing Elizabeth Kostova, author of The Historian and The Swan Thieves, speak at the National Book Festival in D.C. about her personal writing process. She said that unlike some writers, she never plots too far ahead. Instead, she lets the story tell itself and trusts that all ends will fall into place eventually. While crouching on the grass in the heat, and trying not to worry about the camel cricket just inches away from me, I remember admiring her faith.
Just as this picture demonstrates, the trick for me is balancing my knowledge of the present moment with the trail I've got to leave behind me. It's not easy to remember to plant nuance and clues for the reader. For the fiction writer can leave very little to chance. If you drag a toe in the sand, there needs to be a reverse action that makes sense for the reader.
Now at work on my second novel, and thoroughly enjoying the new characters and complications introduced into the familiar town of Yatesville, I still work from a rough outline. It's at the top of my file and serves as a guidepost of where I hope to end up. Not sure that's the best way but it works for me. It's like my little yellow bucket of shells. It's a catch-all for the tidbits I can't bear to leave behind.

'What Men Want' Trailer: Taraji P. Henson Stars In Mel Gibson Comedy Remake
Hollywood loves their remakes, as Taraji P. Henson will star in What Men Want. From the name, you might be thinking Mel Gibson and his What Women Want comedy classic. Well, this new movie starring Henson is a remake of that movie, but from the woman's perspective now.
What Men Want is directed by Adam Shankman (Hairspray) and producers Will Packer and James Lopez (Girls Trip), so I am thinking good thoughts with them on board for this movie. Also starring in the movie are Tracy Morgan, Richard Roundtree, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Josh Brener, Tamala Jones, Phoebe Robinson, Max Greenfield, Jason Jones, Brian Bosworth, Chris Witaske and Erykah Badu.
From the trailer below, you definitely want to see Badu's character! Here is the official synopsis for What Men Want:
Ali Davis (Taraji P. Henson) is a successful sports agent who's constantly boxed out by her male colleagues. When Ali is passed up for a well-deserved promotion, she questions what else she needs to do to succeed in a man's world... until she gains the ability to hear men's thoughts! With her newfound power, Ali looks to outsmart her colleagues as she races to sign the next basketball superstar, but the lengths she has to go to will put her relationship with her best friends and a potential new love interest (Aldis Hodge) to the test.
Check out the What Men Want trailer right here:

By David Nield published 23 December 21
If you're shopping for the best 15-inch laptop you can get, then the Acer Chromebook 515 is likely to appear on your radar sooner rather than later. It's one of the best Chromebooks around at this particular sweet spot of a display size – not too small and not too large.
Here we'll help you decide whether or not the Acer Chromebook 515 makes sense as your next laptop purchase. We'll go through all of the specs and the features of the computer, and cover everything else you need to know to decide if it's worth your hard-earned cash.
If this isn't exactly what you're after in terms of your next laptop, we've got lots of other options for you, from the best laptops for students to the best lightweight laptops. We've also got a definitive list of the best laptops of any description for you to check out.
Your first thought, when deciding whether or not you should buy the Acer Chromebook 515, needs to be this: do you want a Chromebook? Chrome OS is basically a web browser and nothing else, so you need to make sure you can do all your computing inside browser tabs, from emailing to social media. Chromebooks can run Android apps as well, so that gives you lots of options in terms of music, movies and shows.
A lot of people like the lightweight nature of Chrome OS. There's no need to install antivirus software, you don't need to worry about backing up your work (because everything is instantly saved online), and all your software is always right up to date. At the same time, it can be a little limiting – you can't run Adobe Photoshop or Microsoft Office in your web browser, for example.
If you do decide that a Chromebook is for you, then this is one of the best out there. The 15.6-inch screen, the choice of internal processors, the excellent build quality, and more besides. The price can get relatively high, depending on the configuration you go for, but we think that the Acer Chromebook 515 offers value for money at every level.
What are the specs of the Acer Chromebook 515?
You can pick up the Acer Chromebook 515 with a variety of spec configurations, though where you live in the world might influence the options available to you. The internal Intel processors can range all the way from a Pentium Gold 7505 at the lower end of the scale, right up to an Intel Core i7 – which is probably more than you're going to need just to run Chrome OS, even if it is guaranteed to make your laptop fly along.
The processor is matched with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 512GB of super-speedy SSD storage, so this is a very capable laptop indeed at the higher end of the spectrum, if you want to dig deep into your pockets for the best spec. It's likely that most users are going to settle for something a bit more affordable in the middle of the available configurations.
Then there's the screen of course, a 15.6-inch display running at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, which should be plenty for day-to-day computing tasks. There's an integrated fingerprint reader built into the keyboard to make it easier to log in, and you also get a webcam up at the top of the display (with a physical privacy shutter, if you need it). Ports-wise, there's one HDMI port, two USB-C ports, one USB-A port, a headphone/mic jack, and a microSDXC card reader.
What are the best features of the Acer Chromebook 515?
We've already mentioned two of the best features of the Acer Chromebook 515: namely Chrome OS and the 15.6-inch display. Chrome OS continues to be regularly upgraded by Google, and the ability to run Android apps is a welcome bonus that we appreciate. Chromebooks are genuine alternatives to laptops running Windows and macOS now, assuming you can do everything you need to do with web apps.
And then there's that 15.6-inch screen. It's not the brightest you're ever going to come across, but there's plenty of room for your movies and shows – this is a great choice for streaming video content, although you lose a bit of portability if you go for this rather than a 13-inch or 14-inch Chromebook (of which there are many to choose from).
It's really the all-round appeal of the Acer Chromebook 515 that makes it worthy of a place on your shortlist. Acer knows what it's doing when it comes to Chromebooks, and with this particular model you can get the combination of a spacious 15.6-inch screen, some top-end specs, and a full-sized keyboard. Throw in an asking price that's reasonably affordable to, and it's not difficult to see the appeal of this Chromebook.
What else do I need to know about the Acer Chromebook 515?
There isn't too much left to tell you about the Acer Chromebook 515. We should probably mention the battery life, which Acer estimates is going to be around the 10 hour mark – you're going to be able to get a good day's work out of this away from a power supply, but there are other laptops out there that can beat it on battery life. Again, it's all a question of what you're prioritising.
If you want to check out the dimensions of the Chromebook against your backpack, it measures 357.9 mm x 240.5 mm x 24.86 mm (that's 14.1 inches x 9.5 inches 0.98 inches). The laptop tips the scales at 1.7 kilograms, which is 3.7 pounds. Obviously the dimensions of the screen dictate how compact or otherwise the laptop can be to some extent – if you want a 15.6-inch screen, you need to accept certain trade-offs.
Going all the way back to Chrome OS, generally speaking it manages to keep up with the Chrome browser in terms of updates and features. If you sign in with your Google account then you'll get all your stuff synced over from everywhere else you have Chrome installed – bookmarks, browsing history, passwords and usernames, and so on.
What are the alternatives to the Acer Chromebook 515?
(Image credit: Razer)
There are all kinds of alternatives to the Acer Chromebook 515: you can pick a different size laptop, or a laptop that runs a different operating system, or a laptop that has gaming capabilities. If you're not certain that the Acer Chromebook 515 is the right laptop for you, then you can start with our guides to the best Chromebooks and the best MacBook for students to see some other options.
If it's the 15.6-inch display that you're most interested in, then the Razer Blade 15 (pictured above) offers an interesting alternative, because it's so different (aside from the size of the screen). It runs Windows and comes packed with enough power to run the best games on the market comfortably – and gaming is something that Chromebooks really can't do (at least until cloud gaming properly takes off, anyway).
On the other hand, if you absolutely want a Chromebook, then Google's own Pixelbook Go is a sensible choice. It's a little smaller than the Acer Chromebook 515, but it's more stylishly designed, and easier to carry around. The Pixelbook Go isn't the newest Chromebook around, but that does mean that you might be able to pick it up online for a more affordable price.

Friends of murdered Germantown woman recall 'very devout mother'
Posted on April 25, 2013.
By Matt Saxton
As the friends of Heather Palumbo-Jones gathered Wednesday afternoon outside the Germantown council chambers, they remembered a friend and mother who lived in fear of her soon-to-be ex-husband.
"She was a very devout Christian, very devout mother," said longtime friend Melissa Smith. "She talked about getting her tattoos – if that had ever happened – she wanted to get the mother bear tattoo, because she didn't want anyone messing with her kids."
Smith spoke following a press conference held the Germantown municipal building. There, police gave few details about the investigation and the second-degree murder charges they filed Tuesday against Chris Jones, Heather Palumbo-Jones' estranged husband. What they did reveal is what friends said they had feared since she filed for divorce.
"You would never know what she was going through at home," said Smith, tears rolling down her cheek. "Those of us who knew her knew. But she was just radiant and happy with joy."
Police said Chris Smith confessed to killing Heather Palumbo-Jones after turning himself in to them Tuesday. He was in the jail on $1 million bond awaiting an arraignment, which had been scheduled for late Wednesday.
Investigators found the body of Heather Palumbo Jones, 33, Tuesday night with the help of a cadaver dog in the area of Collierville-Arlington Road and Highway 64 in Memphis. She lived in the 7000 block of Poplar Avenue and was a teacher at Frayser Achievement Elementary school.
"I think we all really appreciate what you have done," Smith said during the conference. "We thank you and praise you and have lifted you up in our prayers."
Chris Jones allegedly confessed to killing his wife Tuesday evening, police said. He and his wife had separated in January and were engaged in child custody hearings over their two children, who are now staying with their godmother.
Heather Palumbo-Jones went missing after she did not show up for work on April 16. She had been at school on April 15, police said.
Smith and other friends said that they had been worried that Chris Jones might try to harm them after they started searching for Heather Palumbo-Jones.
"I've been worried. I looked over my shoulders," she said. "I'm so thankful that I won't be that way anymore."
Friend Blair Jones said she also had been worried for some time about Chris Jones. She said that anyone who met him instantly had a "creepy feeling."
"I wish, I wish, I wish I had paid more attention to that creepy feeling," she said.

Son sent emotional message on Irfan Khan's Birth Anniversary, even after wishing this birthday, he could not forget …
Post category:celebrity gossip
Today is the first birth anniversary of actor Irrfan Khan, who gave films like 'Paan Singh Tomar', 'Hindi Medium' to Hindi cinema. Fans often remember him since his death on April 29, 2020 last year. Irrfan Khan, who became popular because of his different acting, is known for playing a new type of role. Irfan Khan, who is famous for his brilliant style of acting, is also being missed by his family today. His son Babil has also written a very emotional message on the father's birth anniversary and shared an old video.
In the caption, sharing the video, Babil wrote, 'You never used to give much importance to celebrations of things like birthday or marriage. That is why I never remember anyone's birthday because you never remember my birthday or encourage me to remember your birthday. For us, birthdays were just like every other day. We used to celebrate every day. Mother used to remind both of us on this occasion, but today I am unable to forget you even after trying my birthday. Today is your birthday Baba.
In the video that Babil shared with this message, Irrfan is seen with his wife Sutapa Sikdar and younger son Ayan. Irrfan Khan is seen recording a video in it and Sutapa also joins it. She understands that perhaps Irrfan Khan is talking to Babil on a video call. At the same time, Ayan is nervous giving some message to his brother and tries to break up. After fighting cancer continuously for two years, Irfan Khan said goodbye to the world in the Corona Lockdown last year.
Irfan Khan's son Babil often keeps posting on social media remembering his father. On the occasion of New Year also, he shared some pictures of Irrfan Khan and wished fans. Even with these pictures, Babil wrote in a sentimental message, 'A new year without you, you are still together. Happy New Year to all. '

I first learned about the accreditation process during my first semester of Bible College. My alma mater was hosting an accreditation review that semester. As an 18-year-old, I did not understand the whole "accreditation" context. I knew that colleges should be accredited because that would guarantee a program's credibility.
I remember entering that room with apprehension and even fear. I did not want to say something wrong. But the gentleman that met me assured that he was only trying to learn how the school was fulfilling its mission and helping the students learn. It turned out that the accreditation experience for my alma mater was a delight.
And it was a delight…and a detailed process for Crossroads Bible College to receive our 10-year Reaffirmation of Accreditation. Celebrate with us as I share about Crossroads' accreditation process and some personal lessons that I learned along the way.
So…What Is Accreditation All About?
Accreditation is granted to federally recognized Commissions on Accreditation. They extend permission to institutions like Crossroads to grant certificates and degrees. Each Commission has Standards or Criterion that govern the process for accreditation. In addition, there are 22 areas of Conditions of Eligibility which the Department of Education required degree granting institutions like Crossroads to perform. Like all institutions, Crossroads worked through a comprehensive process from being an applicant, to being a candidate, to accredited status.
And…What Are the Benefits of Accreditation for Crossroads?
Crossroads received several benefits through entering into an accreditation relationship.
Transparency: Accreditation provided Crossroads the opportunity to disclose our practices to our constituents. Through the process, we provided evidence of financials, scores, our institutional history, and educational outcomes. Through this transparency process we made known records to our constituents—you—with written reports through our website, publications, and annual reports.
Evaluative Process: Accreditation gave Crossroads time to evaluate our systems and practices making sure they are efficient and that we are following best practices for higher education. Our evaluative process led to improvements in teaching and learning at Crossroads.
Assessment & Strategic Planning: Accreditation ensures that Crossroads is carefully planning and has annual cycles where certain practices of assessment are conducted to improve Institutional life. Data gathered at the assessment level provided us with outcomes or measurements to prove that our plan is working.
Non-Negotiables: Accreditation assured that Crossroads has a "due north." Through the process, we established boundaries which we will not violate. Our non-negotiables are mission, vision, and educational objectives.
Spiritual Growth: Accreditation is a spiritual process especially for Christian Colleges like Crossroads Bible College. We are stewards of God's resources (1 Corinthians 4:12). In the evaluation process, we collected data, not as an end in itself, but so that we can see spiritual growth in our students, faculty, staff, and administrators.
What Was the Accreditation Process Like for Crossroads?
Self-Study: Crossroads was required to write a self-study that explained our commitment to the Standards and Essential Elements. In addition, we were required to validate the 22 Conditions of Eligibility that are sanctioned by the Department of Education. The writing process took about 2 years from start to finish.
Evaluation Team: We received a visit from an evaluation team made up of certified evaluators from our member institutions. The evaluation was a peer-review process and no member receives a stipend. Each team volunteered 3 to 4 days to visit a sister school like Crossroads. The team wrote a summary report comprising of Commendations, Suggestions, and Recommendations. Prior to leaving Crossroads, a report was drafted and submitted to the Commission on Accreditation.
The Response Report: The Response Report is our response to the Commission's Action. Like other institutions, we explained how we intended to address any recommendations. We explained the process and scope that we would take to resolve any issues in question.
Reaffirmation Process: The Reaffirmation process we just completed is for accredited institutions who have already received 10 years of accreditation. There is no difference between accredited status and reaffirmation process. Like all institutions, we had to submit a self-study and the supporting documents to the Commission on Accreditation in order to receive another 10-year validation.
I was honored when President Ware asked me to lead Crossroads through the self-study process. God has been faithful to preserve CBC's contribution to Christian higher education for the last 30 years. We were praying for another 30 years of faithfulness.
The accreditation process taught me four lessons that have shaped me personally.
Wisdom: Critical decisions must be made by wise counselors (Proverbs 11:14; Philippians 4:6-7).
Humility: Humility and grace must occupy our conversation (James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:6).
Dependency: We must continually depend upon on God's Spirit and wisdom when we don't know what do (Psalms 86; James 1:5).
Perseverance: Persevere in the hard work so that we might reap a harvest (Galatians 6:9).
I learned early in pastoral ministry that God sustains His work. Sustainment for the Christian, or for that matter in Christian organizations, only comes by God's blessing and enablement. We could not have endured without God's kindness in this work.
In April 2014, the Institution received a team visit as part of our accreditation process. The team reviewed our documents and they were impressed by our Mission, Values, and Educational Philosophy in training Christian leaders to reach a multiethnic urban world for Christ. At the same time, they identified areas for us to further address.
After receiving the Recommendations, Crossroads worked diligently and expeditiously to make needed changes and institutional improvements. Comprehensive plans were reevaluated and further strengthened. By October 2015, Crossroads received a consultation visit to review our progress up to that point. The review was favorable, but still the final decision was in the hands of the Commission…and our sustaining God.
On February 8, 2016, I traveled to Orlando, Florida, with President Ware and our Academic Dean, Marcus Schrader. On this day we would hear the final decision regarding our accreditation status.
I was nervous, a little fearful of the future, but hopeful in the Lord. We had all worked very hard. We had made certain to cover all the areas of recommendations.
As we entered the room, Dr. Ware reminded us of the great work that the entire Crossroads team had done. We appeared before a panel of fellow peers representing the Commission on Accreditation. The panel was a little intimidating, but I soon realized I was among peers again. They wanted God's best for our Institution.
President Ware was able to share a few words prior to a series of Commission questions. After satisfying and clarifying the Commission's questions, we were asked to leave the room for their decision. About five minutes later, we were invited back.
We were commended for our careful attention and expedient diligence to address all areas of recommendations. The Commission unanimously voted to reaffirm Crossroads Bible College for another 10-year accreditation!
This affirmation is by far one of my greatest ministry experiences. Good diligence receives God's blessing. His blessing allows us to fan the Glory of God. It is a joy to know that God empowers us to be part of an educational community with a mission to glorify God by training Christian leaders to reach a multiethnic urban world for Christ.

From Germany's highest hotel to a modern research station
The Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus is located at 2650 m just below the summit of Germany's highest peak the Zugspitze, and is hence Germany's highest reserach station.
Started as hotel
The Schneefernerhaus was built in the thirties as hotel and terminus of the newly built rackrailway, and was frequently visited by tourists and skiers. After the openning in 1986 of 'Sonnalpin' in a more convenient location, the numer of visitors at Schneefernerhaus continuiesly decreased. Hence in the eraly ninties the hotel had to close. In the following years the State of Bavaria modified the hotel into a environmental research station, that was reopened in 1999.
Organization of the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus as GmbH
Recently there are nine well-known research institutions permanently conducting scientific studies at the Schneefernerhaus and are forming together with the State of Bavaria the 'Members of the Consortium' of the station. There are using building with its 12 floors and terraces for the measurement of different parameters in order to solve recent and innovative research questions. They are interdisciplinary working on topics such as atmosphere, biosphere, hydrology, cryospher and medizine. But the Schneefernerhaus is not only open for the Members of the Consortium. Every scientific institution has the possibilty to submit its research idea (see research partners) and to conduct its study at the station. Hence, since 2007 there were over 50 additional teams carrying out their projects here.
Since 2007 the operational company of the UFS GmbH (BG UFS GmbH) is responsible for the station. There are around ten employees with educational background in science, engineering, event management and public relations who are at the station during daytime. The team is acting as service partner of the scientists and are taking care of high-alpine buidling's infrastructure. The main focus thereby is the support of the research teams and visitors, the organization of overnight guests as well as the maintenance of sientific instruments and devices.
The office of the UFS GmbH is at the bifa environmental institute in Augsburg. Since 2007 all belongings concerning the administration of the Schneefernerhaus are carried out by the three employees at this institute. They are also available for all questions concerning the operational management.
Shareholder of the UFS GmbH are the State of Bavaria (represented by the Bavarian Ministry of the Environment and Consumer Protection as well as the Bavarian State of Finance), the community of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the distrcit of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and the community Grainau.
During the last years the UFS GmbH also started to conduct, in cooperation with its scientific partners, its own scientific projects in order to enhance the research possibilities for the scientists.

A short sharp meditation on how we know what we know and how we decide what we decide by the director of the Center of Adaptive Behavior and Cognition at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin.
When I became director of the Max Planck institute of Human Development, I wanted to create an interdisciplinary research group whose members actually talked worked and published together–a rare thing. Unless one actively creates an environment that supports this goal, collaboration tends to fall apart within a few years or may never get off the ground in the first place. The major obstacle is a mental one.
Researchers like most ordinary people tend to identify with their in group and ignore or even look down on neighboring disciplines. Yet most relevant topics we study today do not respect the historically grown disciplinary borders and to make progress, one must look beyond one's own narrow point of view so I came up with a set of rules, not verbalized but acted upon that would create the kind of culture I desired.
Those rules included: EVERYONE ON THE SAME PLANE.
In my experience, employees who work on different floors interact 50% less than those who work on the same floor. And the loss is greater for those working in different buildings. People often behave as if they still lived in the savannah, where they look for others horizontally but not above or below ground. So when my growing group needed an additional 2000 square feet in which to operate, I vetoed the architect's proposal that we construct a new building, and extended our existing offices horizontally so that everyone remained on the same plane…..
This pancake theory of organizational vitality is just one demonstration of the non-logical rules that govern human environments.
Intelligence is at work in what we call gut feelings, hunches and intuitions — despite the fact that we cannot account for them. Intelligence is also at work in the non-logical rules of thumb we use to navigate and predict the behavior of others.
Consider a woman waiting for a black suitcase at Kennedy Airport, and a cop who is looking only for a woman who is looking out for him. How does he zero in on the woman?
Consider a baseball player who wants to catch a ball: how does he calculate where the ball will be so he can catch it?
How does Harry decide on which of his two girlfriends he should marry?
Different heuristics and rules of thumb underlie intuitions, enabling fast action, utilizing 'recognition memory' and the ability to track moving objects… But these rules are not logical. Gerd Gigerenzer navigates the place that gut feelings hold within human knowing, inviting us to re-evaluate both knowing and feeling.

La Radiolina
2LP+CD
BEC 5161609 BEC 5161609
Originally released in 2007. "Manu Chao makes music that cuts across cultural lines. As though singing in seven languages (French, Spanish, Galician, Arabic, English, Portuguese, and Wolof) wasn't enough, he brings aspects of music from across Western Europe, North Africa, and the Americas into his sound. You could say he was destined to live a life between cultures from the start. He was born in Paris to Spanish parents who had fled Franco's regime. His mother was from Bilbao, in Basque country, while his father was a journalist from Galicia, a region in far northwestern Spain that, like Basque country, has its own unique language... The most immediately noticeable thing about La Radiolina is how relatively rocked-up it is relative to its two predecessors. It's as though his old affiliation with the Latin Alternative movement and punk decided to reassert themselves. Mind you, it's not the kind of rock that's going to smack you around with its riffs and stomping drums -- this is more measured than that, and cut with so many global influences that it can't help sounding unique... Manu Chao is living proof that you don't have to be big in the U.S. to be one of the world's most important and influential musicians, and La Radiolina provides a healthy reminder it's a big world out there beyond our borders." --Pitchfork. Gatefold sleeve; comes with a CD copy of the album.

Real name mandatory, otherwise you will get black flag in open practice before the race.
Driver has to change nickname after 1st warning when admins notice he is not using real name, otherwise he will be excluded from SRCA league before the first race.
Review the rules before joining the server for the race.
3951 - Timotej Andonovski doesn't slow down in an area where an accident occurs and hits the rear of Agnus Tong - This is clearly Timotej's fault but no further action necessary as this DNF has cost Timotej his license.
2470 - Devin Braune attempts to lap Valerio Nicolella at the beginning of the straight. Valerio almost causes contact by driving towards the left side of the straight. - Warning to Valerio, you always have to keep your line and be predictable at the corner exit. That means stay where you are and DO NOT move towards the inside!
3506 - Devin Braune attempts to lap Mario Peixoto at the beginning of a short straight. Mario almost causes contact by driving towards the left side of the track - Warning to Mario, you always have to keep your line and be predictable at the corner exit. That means stay where you are and DO NOT move towards the inside!
You really want to practice the pit entry and not cross the pit entry line.
Since last season you have not figured out how to use the proper name on the server. Next race you will use your proper name, capital letters at the beginning of first and last name and that's it.
No underlines, no special characters.
This track is a weird one for the anticut rules as many corners simply have no white lines. Are cuts exclusively handled by the game here? People can already be seen using the full track width in a few corners regardless of kerbs because the game allows it. Just asking to clarify if I can do that or what exactly counts as track here.
Additionally, in many corners it actually costs a bit of time to leave the track at the outside. Do the slowdown rules still apply if that happens? Due to it being slower the game doesn't award a cut warning.
We never penalise cuts during the race, it always does the game itself, so feel free to discover driving limits of this track, but as Flo has already mentioned, there will be no mercy for pitenter line cuts.
[...] there will be no mercy for pitenter line cuts.
This is only valid for the blend line on-track, right? We are allowed to touch the grass on the left side, aren't we?
Can we have a live broadcast with just the pit entry?
Yes Michael, I have never penalised driving on the grass at NOLA pitenter area so far, but if it will cause an accident, it will be penalised even without IRR, because in replay I check pit enters for all 90 minutes.
That's totally reasonable. Thanks for clarifying!
I'll be absent at this race, signing out. Please give my seat to the next driver on the reserved list.
Are we going with real weather for this race btw?
Obviously there has been time when service was not calling and such, but the weather has always been turned on.
Glad we are not racing in Portugal. Max temperature for the upcoming weekend is 34º Celsius. Now image how hot the asphalt gets on these days.
I'll have two bottles of water next to me during the race, that's for sure. And a towel. And a fan.
In livetiming we can see times from Indianapolis, can you do something with this?
