Applause for the Plausible
Why has the word “plausible” come to define federal civil litigation? In recent years, the U.S. Supreme Court supplemented longstanding pleading standards under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which require a “short and plain statement of the claim,”1 to additionally require that all civil pleadings state a claim that is “plausible.”2 In Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, the Court rejected ...
متن کاملMultichannel Coding of Applause Signals
We develop a parametric multichannel audio codec dedicated to coding signals consisting of a dense series of transient-type events. These signals of which applause is a typical example are known to be problematic for such audio codecs. The codec design is based on preservation of both timbre and transient-type event density. It combines a very low complexity and a low parameter bit rate (0.2 kb...
متن کاملThe dynamics of audience applause
The study of social identity and crowd psychology looks at how and why individual people change their behaviour in response to others. Within a group, a new behaviour can emerge first in a few individuals before it spreads rapidly to all other members. A number of mathematical models have been hypothesized to describe these social contagion phenomena, but these models remain largely untested ag...
متن کاملPhysics of the rhythmic applause.
We report on a series of measurements aimed to characterize the development and the dynamics of the rhythmic applause in concert halls. Our results demonstrate that while this process shares many characteristics of other systems that are known to synchronize, it also has features that are unexpected and unaccounted for in many other systems. In particular, we find that the mechanism lying at th...
متن کاملSilence, Murmurs and Applause: Reflections on Expressions of Collections
The area of commonality has to do with the issue of subtle expressivity. I am interested in means—particularly as manifested in visual and auditory portrayals—of conveying complex and subtle expressions. And much of my work draws upon studies—principally from sociology—of the ways in which people notice and interpret large arrays of subtle cues expressed by ‘natural systems.’ The area of differ...
