Q: Has the exponentiation of ordinals a nice geometric model? It is well known that the sum $\alpha+\beta$ of two ordinals $\alpha,\beta$ can be defined "geometrically" as the order type of the sum $(\{0\}\times \alpha)\cup(\{1\}\times\beta)$ endowed with the lexicographic order.
Also the product $\alpha\cdot\beta$ of ordinals $\alpha,\beta$ is the order type of the Cartesian product $\beta\times\alpha$ endowed with the lexicographic order.

What about the exponentiation of ordinals?
Does $\alpha^\beta$ have some nice "geometric'' or combinatorial model?
Maybe as some set of (partial) functions endowed with a suitable well-order?

A: Ordinal exponentiation is a special case of linear order exponentiation. For any linear order $L$, element $a\in L$, and ordinal $\beta$ we can define the $\beta$th power of $L$ at $a$, which I'll call "$L_a^\beta$," as the set of functions $f:\beta\rightarrow L$ such that all but finitely many $\alpha\in\beta$ have $f(\alpha)=a$. The ordering on this set is given by looking at the last point of difference: $$f\trianglelefteq g\iff f=g\mbox{ or } f(\max\{x:f(x)\not=g(x)\})<g(\max\{x:f(x)\not=g(x)\}).$$
For ordinals $\alpha,\beta$ we have $\alpha^\beta=\alpha_0^\beta$. Rosenstein's book treats this in some detail (and is generally an awesome book all-around - it's a huge tragedy that it's so hard to find).
What I like about this definition is that it very nicely complements the definition of cardinal exponentiation: they start with the same basic idea of counting functions between sets, but ordinal exponentiation is the "finite support" version.

Pentagon Won't Probe KBR Rape Charges
DoD IG Says the Justice Dept. Is Still Investigating the Alleged Gang-Rape
By JUSTIN ROOD
The Defense Department's top watchdog has declined to investigate allegations that an American woman working under an Army contract in Iraq was raped by her co-workers.
The case of former Halliburton/KBR employee Jamie Leigh Jones gained national attention last month. An ABC News investigation revealed how an earlier investigation into Jones' alleged gang-rape in 2005 had not resulted in any prosecution, and that neither Jones nor Democratic and Republican lawmakers have been able to get answers from the Bush administration on the state of her case.
In letters to lawmakers, DoD Inspector General Claude Kicklighter said that because the Justice Department still considers the investigation into Jones' case open, there is no need for him to look into the matter.
"[T]he U.S. Justice Department has issued a statement that they are investigating the allegations," wrote Kicklighter's office to Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., who had requested he look into the matter. "No further investigation by this agency into the allegations made by [Jones] is warranted."
"We're not satisfied with that," a Nelson spokesman said.
Jones' lawyers also professed disappointment. "How could the Department of Defense refuse to help [Jones]?'" asked attorney Stephanie Morris, who noted that the criminal investigation into Jones' allegations has been going on for more than two and a half years, without apparent results.
Despite deferring to the Justice Department, Kicklighter's office told Nelson it was willing to pursue other questions Nelson raised about Jones' case. Kicklighter agreed to explore "whether and why" a U.S. Army doctor handed to KBR security officials the results of Jones' medical examination, a so-called "rape kit," which would have contained evidence of the crime if it had occurred.
In a separate letter, Kicklighter's office said that the State Department had said its security officials had Jones' rape kit in their possession at one point.
The State Department's Bureau of Diplomatic Security told Kicklighter "evidence in the rape kit was collected by a U.S. Army doctor and was later provided to [the Bureau of Diplomatic Security]," the IG's office wrote to Sen. Daniel Akaka, D-Alaska, who had asked about Jones' case.
An Army spokesman referred questions about the rape kit to the State Department, which declined to provide new information on the case.
Halliburton/KBR, a Houston, Texas-based government contractor once led by Vice President Dick Cheney, employed Jones until shortly after her alleged assault. Halliburton spun off KBR last year. Jones has since filed suit against KBR and Halliburton. Halliburton says they have been wrongly named in the suit; KBR has maintained that "the safety and security of all employees remains KBR's top priority," it said in a statement. "Our commitment in this regard is unwavering."
Nelson and other lawmakers have also requested information on rape allegations by Jones and others from the Department of State, which initially investigated Jones' allegations, and the Department of Justice. To date, none have reported receiving information.

1. Facebook trials new Wi-Fi service in India
Facebook is running trials in India of [link URL="https://info.internet.org/en/story/expresswifi/"]Express Wifi[/link] a new service that allows mobile phone users to buy bandwidth on local Wi-Fi hotspots from internet providers in their region (The Verge). The company appears undaunted by widespread condemnation of its Free Basics mobile internet service, targetted at poorer mobile phone users, which was ultimately banned in India as it entirely ignored the principles of Net Neutrality by giving users a walled garden that only provided access to Facebook-approved websites and online services. Express Wifi, which has already been trialled using 125 rural hotspots, isn't free and has so far managed to avoid similar controversy.
2. Qualcomm driver flaw introduces security hole to a potential 900 million Android devices
Israeli security firm Checkpoint has revealed major security vulnerabilities affecting chipsets made by Qualcomm and found in hundreds of millions of Android phones, including the Google Nexus 6, Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG L5 (WIRED). Dubbing the vulnerability QuadRooter, Checkpoint says that the firmware that controls the chips includes four vulnerable drivers that, if exploited, would allow an attacker to gain root access to the device. As the security issues are at firmware level, they can only be fixed by installing patched firmware – already available for three of the vulnerabilities – but whether and when users get the security update is at the discretion of their device manufacturer. Google has already rolled out patches for its devices and Checkpoint has released a vulnerability scanner so users can see if their phone if affected.

3. Bifinex exchange to distribute hacking losses among all customers
Hong Kong-based bitcoin exchange Bitfinex has announced that it will reduce all its users' balances by 35 per cent to evenly distribute losses resulting from a hack that took $70 million in bitcoin from the exchange last week (TechCrunch). The price of bitcoin has dropped 20 per cent in response, to $590. Bitfinex's customers will be issued a token to compensate them for their losses, which the company says can be traded, redeemed for full payment or exchanged for Bitfinex shares. Bitfinex also says that it's in the process of raising funds to compensate customers.
4. No evidence of sterile neutrinos found at Antarctic observatory
A year-long project to find evidence of sterile neutrinos, a hypothetical hidden particle that could help explain dark matter, has come up blank (MIT News). Antartica's IceCube Neutrino Observatory produced data on 20,000 neutrinos as they passed through deep ice, which causes electrically charged secondary particles to emit light. However, all the detected neutrinos corresponded with the behaviour predicted for standard neutrinos, with no evidence of the hidden sterile variety, the project team's study reports.
5. Huge Airlander airship prepares for its first flight
British aeronautics firm Hybrid Air Vehicles has released a video of its vast Airlander 10 airship leaving its hangar for the first time (Popular Science). The 92 metre vessel, which uses technology built on that of blimps and zeppelins, is the longest aircraft in the world and is built to carry up to 10,000kg of cargo for crewed journeys lasting as much as five days. The aircraft has begun a series of tethered checks to be carried out before its first free flight.
6. Study: students who play online games are more academically gifted
A new Australian study has compared the exam results and lifestyle habits of 12,000 high school students and has found that those who report playing both single- and multiplayer online games regularly got scores well above average in maths, science and literacy (WIRED). However, the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology's Alberto Posso and his colleagues found that, while online gaming correlated positively with academic performance, students who spent a lot of time on social networks such as Facebook and Twitter saw their test scores drop in proportion to the amount of time they spent using the services. Posso observes that "online games foster a range of skills that promote higher order thinking, which could potentially lead to improvements in math and literacy" and that "people who are good at math and reading also enjoy games that allow them to employ, or even sharpen these skills."
7. Video: black hole simulator makes mesmerising viewing
Scientists at the University of Nottingham's Black Hole Laboratory have created a sophisticated physical simulator that models the behaviour of a black hole using a specially designed water tank and fluorescent dye (Motherboard). The simulator takes advantage of angular momentum caused by feeding in water at the correct angle and familiar bathtub vortex effect, along with interchangeable centre holes, to mimic the way matter interacts with black holes under various conditions.

8. Pokémon Go update trials new Nearby Pokémon tracker
Niantic has rolled out a new update to Pokémon Go for Android and iOS, designed to fix and a number of bugs and – for a limited subset of users – trial a new version of the Nearby Pokémon feature (GameSpot). The company writes that "We're currently testing a variation of the "Nearby Pokémon" feature with a subset of users. During this period you may see some variation in the nearby Pokémon UI." The update also gives users a one-time option to change their trainer's name, prompts users not to game and drive, and fixes Poké Ball throw accuracy and XP rewards.
9. Nintendo takes down Metroid 2 fan remake
Nintendo has issued a Cease and Desist notice against AM2R – Another Metroid 2 Remake – an impressive fan project to create an updated PC version of 1991's Metroid II: The Return of Samus for the Game Boy (IGN). The fan game, released this week in time for the Metroid franchise's 30th anniversary, had received considerable acclaim and attention (IGN). Nintendo is known for being highly protective of its intellectual property, and the game files both on AM2R's official site and elsewhere are no longer available.
10. Man of Steel is getting a sequel
TheWrap reports that a sequel to Warner Bros' Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavil as Superman, has gone into active production. The film will follow on from the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice according to the publication's anonymous source, although Warner itself declined to comment. No release date has been confirmed, although two as-yet-unnamed DC films are currently scheduled for release in October 2018 and November 2019.

Science on the brain: How your mind's hidden 'physics engine' can predict the future
The parts of our brain we use to make plans have also been found to possess an innate ability to understand physics. This so-called "physics engine" helps us understand how the world works, helps us predict what will happen next, and is likely an important part of our evolutionary development of survival skills. Professor Jason Fischer, a cognitive scientist at Johns Hopkins University, found the source of our apparently-intuitive understanding by running a series of video-based experiments. Computer models of towers built with Jenga-like blocks were shown to subjects, who were asked to predict which way the blocks would fall and also to guess how many blocks were yellow or blue. Other experiments had subjects watching a video of dots bouncing around a screen, and asked them to predict their direction. In both cases the researchers noticed that brain regions in the premotor cortex and the supplementary motor area were most responsive.

The most original film to come out of this year's award season, Bong Joon-ho's Korean masterpiece Parasite which can only be described as brilliantly bizarre. Since its premiere at Cannes Film Festival, the film world has been abuzz for this film. It subsequently took home the prestigious Palme d'Or beating out Quentin Tarantino's mainstream favourite Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (you can read my review here) and has become a huge favourite this awards season, breaking the mold by being the first Korean film nominated for major awards. Particularly for non-English language films, Parasite has managed to achieve the impossible but it has done so for a reason. Joon-ho's flawless mix of genres means that you cannot really place Parasite within a particular set. It is a perfect mix of drama, comedy, horror and thriller while also discussing a variety of topics including classism and gender. Parasite refuses to conform and because of this, it stands out as one of the most original pieces of the 21st century.
The film follows the Kim family made up of father Kim Ki-taek (Song Kang-ho), mother Chung-sook (Chang Hyae-jin), son Kim Ki-woo (Choi Woo-shik) and daughter Kim Ki-jeong (Park So-dam) as they struggle to make ends meet by working temporary jobs that pay little and are living in a semi-basement that is constantly subject to flooding, public urination and fumigation. When Ki-woo is given the opportunity to work as an English tutor to a daughter of the affluent Park family, the Kim family concoct a plan to create jobs for themselves in the stylish household thus earning a decent wage and living the high life themselves as the Park family's household grows evermore unstable. On the other side, there is the Park family consisting of father Park Dong-ik (Lee Sun-kyun), mother Yeon-gyo (Cho Yeo-jeong), daughter Park Da-hye (Jeong Ji-so) and son Park Da-song (Jung Hyeon-jun) and their housekeeper Gook Moon-gwang (Lee Jung-eun). It is a film that presents the extreme balance of classism from either side with the housekeeper acting as the literal and figurative gatekeeper in the middle.
Joon-ho's direction feels unique and innovative as he manipulates setting and space to create an alternative universe within a very grounded and real place. The physical placement of the Kim family's house being below the ground and the Park's mansion placed high up on a hill creates a physical hierarchy. The airy, spacious setting and architectural minimalism of the Park home screams luxury and relaxation which is a stark contrast to the crammed and narrow corridors of the Kim basement where the toilet sits on a higher level to the rest of the bathroom. Joon-ho's decision to only show the two homes as primary location only exemplifies the issues of class and belonging even more. It is no surprise that it is the smell of the basement that lingers with the Kim family and creates a separation between the two families. Despite being treated as such, they can never truly be equals. Joon-ho's script, co-written with Han Jin-won is sharp and natural. They know when the film benefits from minimal dialogue and when to create chaos as the two families clash. As mentioned before, the film is a mix of many genres and doesn't really have a place within one category. This isn't a bad thing at all because in a way, it has shown Joon-ho's skill as a filmmaker.
The main cast capture the film perfectly. One particular highlight is Song Kang-ho who brings a phenomenal performance as the Kim patriarch Kim Ki-taek who finds work as the Park family driver, mainly working for the family patriarch Park Dong-ik. He doesn't hesitate to manipulate the Park family and take advantage of the luxury lifestyle but becomes deeply affected and paranoid when the comments of the Kim family smell arise. It is these moments that ground Ki-taek and make him realise that the lifestyle they think they are living is only an illusion. Despite their hardest efforts, they cannot rid the stench of the basement. Aside from being a film that explores the differences in class, it also does a great job at showing acceptance and place of belonging. Ki-taek doesn't wish to change anything really and eventually begins to despise Dong-ik. Choi Woo-shik also brings his A game as Ki-woo, a young man who aspires to get out of his current situation. Working as Da-Hye's English tutor gives him an insight into the life that he wants but not all is as it seems. Ki-woo starts a web of lies as he manages to coerce his employers to hire members of his family without them realising.
Parasite is a fantastically bonkers film bursting to the seams with originality and I hope it triumphs at the Oscars and wins the major awards. As much as I did enjoy Sam Mendes' frontrunner 1917 (you can read my review here), Parasite is a film that brought more to the table and something different. Not only would it be an incredible moment for film history to see a Korean film sweep some major awards that are often excluded to English-language films only (insert Roma snub here). The hype that Parasite has generated is truly deserving and it's great to see that it is connecting with a global audience.

Stanušina crna, stanusina crna, stanušina (macedoński: Станушина) – szczep winorośli właściwej o ciemnej skórce, uprawiany jedynie w Macedonii Północnej, przede wszystkim w kotlinie Tikveš. Znaczna część winnic padła ofiarą filoksery na przełomie XIX i XX w. i nie została odtworzona.

Charakterystyka
Odmiana daje wysoki plon: średnie i duże gron o stosunkowo dużych jagodach. Dobrze znosi suszę i ubogie gleby. Cechuje się dużą zmiennością genetyczną, lecz powstałe tak krzewy są w tym przypadku gorsze.

Wina ze stanušiny są często niewyróżniające się i dlatego odmiana jest mieszana np. z prokupacem lub primitivo, znanym w regionie jako kratošija. Pojedynczy producenci są skłonni do selekcji krzewów, by poprawić jakość i oferują stanušinę jako wino odmianowe.

Jean-Marc Bustamante, the outgoing director of the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts (ENSBA), France's national arts academy in Paris, is criticizing the French culture minister for a lack of support after being lambasted by ENSBA students for failing to adequately grapple with a spate of sexual harassment allegations toward professors at the school, according to the Art Newspaper.
A change.org petition demanding ENSBA confront the allegations currently has over one thousand signatures, and a pamphlet against the artist—whose three-year contract as director ends this summer and has not been renewed—was also circulated. Bustamante, a professor at ENSBA since 1998, was appointed director of the academy in 2015, following the controversial firing of Nicolas Bourriaud from the post by the minister of culture.
According to Le Monde, a student threw flour on Bustamante during the school's June 28 awards ceremony, and another read from a letter detailing his "total absence of consideration for the repeated reports of teachers' harassment towards students and the disdain and caustic humor that characterize your attitude towards these problems." Later, the sixty-six-year-old artist was summoned to the Ministry of Culture, where he learned from a cabinet member that his contract would end in September and not be renewed like he had requested. "I am very shocked by this event and by the lack of responsibility by the minister, who did not receive me [after the attack]," said Bustamante, who is now on sick leave.


Saturday in San Jose, California I caught up with veteran Champ Car driver Paul Tracy with the Forsythe Championship Racing team. As the most senior and most experienced driver in Champ Car, Tracy has a wealth of experience having driven with many great Champ Car drivers. We talk about the new Champ Car, the future of his career, his NASCAR foray, and what he sees for Champ Car's future.
Find out why he thinks new teammate AJ Allmendinger has been faster than him.
MARK CIPOLLONI: Paul, thanks for being with us today.
Last night was the big announcement and unveiling of the new car. What was your impression of it?
PAUL TRACY: I think it was -- I think the presentation, the effort put out in it was one of the best that I've seen in a long time in terms of the unveiling, the hype behind the unveiling, the anticipation behind the unveiling.
It used to be that we would get new cars every year, so now -- it's like it wasn't a big deal in my time to get a new car every year. You'd get excited about driving the new car. But now with having run the same car for six, seven years, you know, there was a lot of excitement behind the new car. So that was exciting for everybody.
Q. As far as what you saw of the new car, anything you liked or didn't like?
PAUL TRACY: I think it looks good. I think, you know, a lot of people had question marks whether it would look like a classic Champ Car, how the lines would be, whether they were going to put an air box on it like an IRL car or Formula One car. I know a lot of the fans don't like the look and the styling of the air box.
I think they've done everything to maintain the classic lines and the sleekness of a Champ Car, the low lines, and I think that they've updated the car with more modern aerodynamics with a raised nose, more aerodynamic, the under wing tunnel is going to be more effective for downforce than what we currently have, and allow us to run closer to each other.
Q. How do you feel about the paddle shifters and the thought of maybe doing standing starts next year?
PAUL TRACY: I think it's good. I think standing starts, you know, it all depends on the track, but I think having an onboard starter is good. The problem in the past was packaging, the onboard starter with a battery and a starter, where you would put it. There's not a lot of room in a Lola for that. But they've designed this new car around having that option.
I think the paddle shifting, it was good. It was something that I was for when they came and asked me about it. You know, some of the tracks that we have to run at currently, just as an example, Houston is so bumpy, you almost don't want to take your hands off the steering wheel because the bumps are so violent that you can barely hang on to the steering wheel hard enough as it is on the bumps. I think that's going to add some safety factor.
And the other big issue was, you know, some of the tracks we go to, you get a lot of overrevs on downshifts because some of the corners are medium speed, your one gear is too long, the other is too short. You go for the shorter gear and you have a lot of overrevs that the rear wheels drive the engine overrevving.
That will save a lot of, you know, pulled engines in terms of early rebuilds for the teams. You can't overrev the motor. The engine will downshift when it's ready to downshift.
Q. Have you had much experience with standing starts in your career?
PAUL TRACY: Not really. I mean, I've done some in Formula Fords and Formula 2000, Formula Atlantic. But we're talking 20 years ago now. So not a lot of experience with it.
Q. Does it give you any apprehension at all?
PAUL TRACY: No, no. I mean, you know, it will be the same for everybody. So I don't have a problem with it.
Q. Besides the new car, there's talk of some new races next year. Las Vegas has been announced. Phoenix is apparently close to being announced. China, as well, as I understand it. Believe it or not, I learned today of some other ones. How do you feel about where the series is positioned right now? The rumors about a merger seem to have died down. What I'm hearing, it doesn't sound like it's that close. So do you feel that Champ Car is on the right path?
PAUL TRACY: I think they've got to continue. I think that what they're doing now and what they've got to continue to do is keep continuing on their own path. And if unification happens, that would be great. I think it would be great for both series. But you can't stand still and wait on unification. You've got to keep developing the series. You've got to keep cultivating new markets to go to.
Going to Las Vegas, people have been trying to go to Las Vegas, whether it be Formula One or, you know, Champ Cars, IndyCars, for the last 10 years. People have been trying to put together a street race in Las Vegas, unsuccessfully. For Kevin and Gerry to be able to pull that off I think is a big shot in the arm for the series, that they were able to put that all together with the city, get a unanimous vote and funding from the city, whereas everyone else in the past has failed to be able to do that, to run a race in Las Vegas. So I think that's a big shot in the arm for the series and it underscores the capabilities of them as businessmen to be able to achieve that.
So, you know, we've got Phoenix that looks like that's going to happen as a season-ender, another great market that we haven't been in in a long time. It will be a street race. You know, and then going to the east and China I think is good, too.
Q. We also are hearing new team owners coming in. Things seem to be turning around. Bob Gelles announced last night, he was a little more specific, he's going to run a 12-car team next year, six Formula BMWs, four Champ Car Atlantic cars and two Champ Car World Series cars next year. Quite a big operation. He's one. There's rumors of Paul Stoddard coming in.
PAUL TRACY: Well, I think that will put another four cars on the grid. We're currently at, depending on how things go from week to week, 17, 18. So that would put us over the 20 mark to 22. I think that's -- as a series, you know, I think what we really need is between 22 and 24 cars. Anything over that, when you get up towards 26, 28, it kind of becomes a little bit of a chaos in terms of traffic and, people getting in other's way, especially on some of the temporary tracks like here and Denver. It just becomes too many cars for the size of the venue. So I think that 22 to 23, 24 cars is a good number.
Q. You've been in the series quite a long time now. You just recently renewed for, what, five years?
Q. Five years. You've made another commitment to stay here. You must be relatively happy with what you see. How about your NASCAR aspirations? Are you still going to do any NASCAR at all?
PAUL TRACY: Well, I'd like to. But obviously I have the option to really pick and choose what I want to do. And, you know, my first opportunity to really go -- you know, there's been some interest in me doing it for five or six years from Childress. We went and did a test. But the deal was kind of contingent on putting together some sponsorship packages for me to run. Obviously, it takes money to run those things. It's vastly expensive to run those cars. Talking about 300,000 to 400,000 dollars a weekend for budget for a Cup car.
PAUL TRACY: You're talking budgets of $20 million for a 38-race schedule. You break that down, it's a half a million dollars a weekend. So, I mean, you know, Childress had some things happen, potential sponsors in Canada. I went and tested. But ultimately everything didn't come together. The money didn't come through. So the plans kind of got squashed.
I talked to Gerry about I was interested in doing it. I was intrigued by it. And he said, Well, you know, I think you can stay in this series a lot longer and still do a lot of things for this series. He said, I would caution you to go and try NASCAR and go do however many races you want to do, see if you enjoy it. And if you like it, 'cause there's -- the list goes on and on of guys that have gone down there and been unsuccessful and it's ended their career.
So, I mean, that was really what I decided to do. I went down there and started talking, couldn't really get a lot of interest, the answer to my question was, How much money do you have? Do you have any sponsorship to run a car? I had to put together a sponsorship package. I was able to do that with Sport Clips, a shampoo company, American Crew, for a five-race package. But really when I went back with my money in my hand, nobody was really prepared to give me a top-flight in-the-points car for a five-race deal. They were looking at, We need a full-season deal if we're going to free up a championship-level car. It doesn't really make sense to do it for five races.
So by the time we had our money together to go do it, to get into the race at Daytona, in a guaranteed spot, you needed a car that was inside the top 30. The only car that was available at that time was Frank Cici's car. I was kind of stuck doing that program. Frankly, you know, it's a back-of-the-pack car. So it's been a little bit frustrating. I had a good run at Daytona. I enjoyed doing Daytona. I've enjoyed doing the restrictor plate races. But there hasn't been any door open for me to get into a good car. And it just didn't make a lot of sense for me to spend two or three years running around in mediocre equipment hoping that I'm going to get an opportunity.
Q. So will you do any more part-time NASCAR stuff or is that it?
PAUL TRACY: The sponsors that I have now, they're really happy with me, American Crew and Sport Clips. They want to do a bigger better deal next year, more races. But I really haven't decided if that's really what I want to do yet. I made a commitment to Gerry. He knows that I like to go race other cars and I like to stay busy in the off-season. I don't really know how busy we're going to be this off-season. I don't know what our testing schedule is. Last winter I wasn't going to test from November until the beginning of April was my first test. So I had five months off. And I just felt that it was a good idea for me to be out driving Grand-Am cars, driving something to stay busy all winter and keep the rust off.
So I haven't really decided what I'm going to do in terms of stock cars. I have sponsorship put together, but I haven't really decided whether it's what I want to do or not. It all depends on what the schedule is for the new car, the '07 car.
The only thing I know for sure right now is that I'll continue to do some Grand-Am races. I want to do the 24 Hours. I'll do the 9 Hours of Utah with Mike Shank and Mike Borkowski. Continue to do that stuff because it's road racing. It's good.
Q. You're originally from Canada.
Q. Will you try to make the Busch race in Montréal next year? Is that a goal?
PAUL TRACY: It all depends on the schedule. We don't know what's schedule is yet. It's not announced yet. We'll see.
Q. You're still living in Las Vegas, is that correct?
Q. What is your sense for that race doing well in the old downtown area of Las Vegas? I don't know Las Vegas very well.
PAUL TRACY: Well, I live there. Over the last five years there's been a big revival, push down there. They're in the process right now of building minimum-priced condos, townhomes, around the area where the track is going to be. Right now where the track is going to be, they just built two giant furniture-type showrooms -- it's like a world center for furniture. Buyers come in from all over the world. All the manufacturers of furniture worldwide display their product in these two buildings they built.
It's like a big giant -- it's a year-round convention place for furniture. It's only open to dealers. So the race is going to be based around this -- there's an outdoor shopping mall there, and there's this furniture convention center, and then you have these kind of big empty lots and streets that have already been done for this new development of condos that are going in down there.
So, you know, that whole area is going to be completely redeveloped. Now that our race is going to be part of that area for the next five years, I think it's going to be great because it's going to be the new downtown of Las Vegas.
Q. Might be a good time for Champ Car to be getting in there.
Q. Yeah, sounds like it. Let's talk a little bit about your new teammate, A.J. He seems to have been a spark for the team, it really seems to have come alive.
Q. How is your relationship with A.J. because both of you have moved forward since he came onboard?
PAUL TRACY: The biggest factor really is obviously he's very fast. Probably wasn't comfortable in the team that he was at. He didn't feel like he could get what he wanted there. When he came to this team, he started from a clean sheet of paper. The team was welcomed to have him. They wanted him on the team. He came in and obviously wanted to impress his first race. He did that in a big way the first three races by winning all three.
You know, in terms of our team, the level of our team stepping up, I think for myself, it's benefited me in the last couple races because when he came in, the last two to three years, I haven't really had a teammate that has been able to push me as I've always had the measure of my teammates by 3 to 4/10ths of a second a lap.
So he has come in and obviously he's been very, very quick. So I've had to raise my game. I've had to look at the telemetry, figure out where is he making up all his time on me. So it's helped me a lot, you know, because basically I've had it easy for the last four years.
Patrick [Carpentier] was slower than me 80, 90% of the time. The same with Mario [Dominguez]. I really haven't had to push myself as far as you need to push yourself.
Q. You guys share similar setups?
PAUL TRACY: Yeah, our cars are virtually the same other than brake pads are a little bit different, you know, small things. So we drive a very similar car. Our driving styles are a lot different. He's a left-foot braker and I'm a right-foot braker. That's the kind of a thing where, in terms of lap time right now, the only real difference between myself and him is that he's able to -- he's braking with the left foot while he's still a hundred percent on throttle. Kind of there's a transition where he's still on the throttle and on the brake at the same time, whereas I go from the full throttle and there's a gap between from when I get to the brake. So he's beating me in the brake zones a little bit because he's doing it -- he's getting on the brake as he's at full throttle, then he lifts off the throttle and is slowing down, whereas I'm having to transition from one to the other.
So, you know, it's making me think now that I probably should start trying to make the transition to being a left-foot braker.
Q. It would be interesting. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
PAUL TRACY: I've always kind of shied away. I mean, most of my teammates have been left-foot brakers. Rick [Mears] was a left-foot braker. Al, Jr. was a left-foot braker. Emerson Fittipaldi was a right-foot braker. Michael Andretti was a left-foot braker. Dario Franchitti was the same as me, a right-foot braker. Patrick Carpentier and Mario Dominguez were left-foot brakers. I was always quicker than them. I was able to brake as deep as them, but they never carried full throttle and braked at the same time. They would brake and get off the throttle right away.
This is -- I guess this is the new generation of go-karting kids, that this is how they do it now. And, you know, times have changed and I've got to learn new tricks.
Q. There's been some ongoing controversy I guess between you and Sébastien Bourdais. Have you guys kind of worked out those differences?
PAUL TRACY: I don't really talk to him. You know, he's just a guy who likes to give his opinion on everything, and I'm kind of the same personality. But, you know, when we see each other face to face, it's always very cordial. But it seems like every time that I turn around, especially when we're in Canada, whether it's in Edmonton or Toronto, he's got to try to stick a knife in my back, he has some comment to say about me.
That's just -- it's his prerogative. I don't take much weight in what he has to say because, frankly, I don't think a lot of people really care what he has to say.
Q. How do you feel about him as a driver?
PAUL TRACY: I think he's a great driver. I think obviously he's proven that he's a great driver. It's just his personality doesn't lend himself to, you know, people adoring him.
Q. All right. Thank you very much for your time. Wish you a lot of luck this weekend. Hope to see you back in the winner's circle soon.

Q: Using Pycharm with QGIS 3 I've installed QGIS 3.4 using the network installer (64 bit) and tried to use qgis with pycharm as described here:
http://spatialgalaxy.net/2018/02/13/quick-guide-to-getting-started-with-pyqgis3-on-windows/
However, I can´t get the processing package to work properly in pycharm. For example, when I use a simple code like:
from qgis.core import *
import processing

processing.run("qgis:createpointslayerfromtable",
               {'INPUT':r'C:\Users\input.xlsx',
                'XFIELD':'GEO_X',
                'YFIELD':'GEO_Y',
                'ZFIELD':None,
                'MFIELD':None,
                'TARGET_CRS':QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem('EPSG:4326'),
'OUTPUT':r'C:\Users\output.geojson'})

I get the error: Algorithm qgis:createpointslayerfromtable not found
The same code works when executed directly in the python window in QGIS so there must be a problem with my setup of pycharm.
As pyqgis.cmd I´m using:
@echo off
SET OSGEO4W_ROOT=C:\OSGeo4W64
call "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%"\bin\o4w_env.bat
call "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%"\apps\grass\grass-6.4.3\etc\env.bat
@echo off
path %PATH%;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\qgis\bin
path %PATH%;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\grass\grass-6.4.3\lib
path %PATH%;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Qt5\bin
path %PATH%;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37\Scripts

set PYTHONPATH=%PYTHONPATH%;%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\qgis\python
set PYTHONHOME=%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\Python37

start "PyCharm aware of Quantum GIS" /B "C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PyCharm Community Edition 2018.1.4\bin\pycharm.exe" %*

cmd.exe

I´ve tried different variants like adding
CALL "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%"\etc\ini\python-core.bat
but nothing seems to work. Please help.

A: I also had issues with this. Too many thing might go wrong, my current workflow is to code in IDE and then import the script in qgis to finish things.
The standalone processor shoulg be available (see https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/34617)
To that effect you could use system/os.call to invoke it from your pycharm and use the processing tools this way. I haven't tried it yet but it should be simpler than fighting with paths and environment variables.
