On the relation between Bell inequalities and nonlocal games
We investigate the relation between Bell inequalities and nonlocal games by
presenting a systematic method for their bilateral conversion. In particular,
we show that while to any nonlocal game there naturally corresponds a unique
Bell inequality, the converse is not true. As an illustration of the method we
present a number of nonlocal games that admit better odds when played using
quantum resourcesComment: v3 changes: Updates to reflect PLA version. 1 examples changed.

The Wooster Voice (Wooster, Ohio), 1911-02-08
This issue of the Wooster Voice features a piece by an alumni recalling the way in which Wooster in the 1880s differed from the Wooster of the early 1910s, and a fiction piece. Page features club updates, updates on other schools, and music reports. Page 3 contains a report on college debate and continues the comparison piece. Page 4 is letters to the editor and features a piece advertising a future series in which the women of Wooster will critique the men anonymously. Page 5 is the Alumni page. Page 6 contains campus updates on various social events. Page 7 contains club updates. Page 8 continues the fiction piece.https://openworks.wooster.edu/voice1911-1920/1003/thumbnail.jp

Local Observables in a Landscape of Infrared Gauge Modes
Cosmological local observables are at best statistically determined by the
fundamental theory describing inflation. When the scalar inflaton is coupled
uniformly to a collection of subdominant massless gauge vectors, rotational
invariance is obeyed locally. However, the statistical isotropy of fluctuations
is spontaneously broken by gauge modes whose wavelength exceed our causal
horizon. This leads to a landscape picture where primordial correlators depend
on the position of the observer. We compute the stochastic corrections to the
curvature power spectrum, show the existence of a new local observable (the
shape of the quadrupole), and constrain the theory using Planck limits.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, v2: minor updates, matches version published in

MS – 211: Earman Family Letters from WWII
The collection contains 389 letters, 15 V-mail , and 166 additional items addressed to members of the Earman family home. The majority of the correspondence is sent from Ernest and Randolph to their mother, Mrs. Earman. Because the Earman brothers did not see much direct combat, the bulk of their letters are updates on health and daily activities, or candid observations on the war, the Army, the weather, and women. The rest of the collection includes letters addressed to the Earman family from distant or extended family, close friends, and Ernest’s foreign and domestic girlfriends. Many of the letters are (legibly) handwritten, though some were typed. While the majority of the items are well–preserved inside their original envelopes, eleven letters are without envelopes and seven envelopes are without accompanying letters; these items are marked as “envelope only” or “letter only.” Many envelopes contain a variety of printed ephemera or artifacts like clippings, programs, advertisements, and photographs. There were 31 photographs/ephemera which were not enclosed in any specific letter or envelope; these loose items have been grouped together in Series VIII (see description). There are brief gaps in correspondence which can be attributed to Army furloughs or overseas travel. Because some of the correspondence from Ernest, Randolph, and Granville (particularly the V–mail) was written under censorship, details about military location or movements have been omitted or physically removed from the letters. Historians researching WWII communication and censorship may be interested in the Vmail, telegrams, or letters from the soldiers immediately after they arrived overseas. The collection’s female writers offer a helpful gendered perspective of the war, both on the home–front and abroad. Jo Bush’s letters detail the life and training of a Cadet Nurse. Mrs. (Dorothy) Randolph Earman’s letters express the concerns of a wife and mother trying to manage a household while worrying about the absence of her husband. The letters from Ernest’s foreign (often romantic) acquaintances reveal how French and German women saw America, Americans, and WWII. Arguably the collection’s greatest strength is its view into the personal lives and relationships of U.S. soldiers while overseas. While he entertained multiple romantic interests during his time as a soldier, Ernest struck up a serious relationship in France with Catherine Seux, whom he hoped to marry one day after returning home. As time passed and marriage proved increasingly unlikely, Catherine’s progressively dejected letters—which end quite abruptly in Aug. 1946—give voice to foreign women who, charmed by American soldiers, hoped to marry and come to the United States but were met instead with cultural and economic setbacks.

Directed Percolation Universality in Asynchronous Evolution of Spatio-Temporal Intermittency
We present strong evidence that a coupled-map-lattice model for
spatio-temporal intermittency belongs to the universality class of directed
percolation when the updating rules are asynchronous, i.e. when only one
randomly chosen site is evolved at each time step. In contrast, when the system
is subjected to parallel updating, available numerical evidence suggests that
it does not belong to this universality class and that it is not even
universal. We argue that in the absence of periodic external forcing, the
asynchronous rule is the more physical.Comment: 12 pages, RevTeX, includes 6 figures, submitted to Physical Review

Newsletter, “On the Beam” Volume 24, A Private Newsletter by Howard Coleman to His Friends and Family, November 20, 1944
The newsletter, On the Beam volume 24, written by Howard Coleman, is a private newsletter written to update Coleman\u27s friends and family. Dated November 20, 1944, this issue of the newsletter updates the activities and whereabouts for officers stationed in France, Germany, England, and on various Navy ships. The newsletter goes on to list men reported missing, wounded, or killed in action. Other items shared are sports updates, updates from the local paper, and what he\u27s seen around town. The news he shares is taken from letters he\u27s received, news broadcasts, newspapers, and his interactions with people he speaks to around town.https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/mss-bogan-newsletters/1000/thumbnail.jp
