This year I've been going through a lot. Everything I attempt encounters an obstacle. This is almost the fifth month into the year and I'm just not where I want to be. Building my brand is a struggle. Businesswise, it is a struggle because I don't have access to the finances to utilize certain resources that I need to take myself to where I need and want to be. Yes, I have been blessed to meet and associate with a few influential people, however, they don't offer their assistance to facilitate my career growth. Their major concern is themselves, and rightfully so. After all, everyone isn't capable of supporting other people's careers. Plus, some people believe that I can be successful without them – positive thinking ["That girl's going to be somebody one day"].
Often my struggle is internal between my wants and needs, my successes and my failures. Being Super Woman is not easy – I just make it look like it is. Everything associated with my brand is strategically planned, but not necessarily by me. Some aspects of this plan are in Divine Order and they happen when they should and how they should. Sometimes I don't like it, but I deal with it regardless. I've learned that when we pray for something, God isn't just going to give us exactly what was prayed for. Instead, He will often give us the opportunity to obtain what we've prayed for. It's just like giving your child a toy they want. Sometimes we have to tell our children they need to earn that toy by getting good grades or cleaning their room. The work makes the reward more valuable.
When I pray for wealth, God doesn't give me the winning lottery numbers. Instead He gives me the opportunity to do certain things that will put me on the path to becoming wealthy. When I pray to be a blessing to others, God gives me a project instead of a halo, so that I have the opportunity to be a blessing to someone else. When I pray for strength or courage, God gives me the opportunity to be strong in the face of adversity or show courage in times when I feel fear. When I pray for patience, God sends a man into my life who is just like I am – stubborn, headstrong, determined and ambitious – so that I have the opportunity to exhibit patience. I never said God didn't have a sense of humor in His approach to our prayers.
Although this struggle is both external and internal for me, I believe there will be a time when I look back on everything and feel a sense of accomplishment because I was given the opportunity to achieve my goals. I am trusting in God's plan; it's better than anything I can design, stronger than anything I can shape and bigger than anything I can imagine. Where it will take me is where I'm meant to be.

감성은 복잡하고 다양한 요인들에 의해 영향을 받기 때문에 다각적인 측면에서 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 심리 평가 척도의 하나인 각성(arousal) 지표와 다중 생체신호에서 추출된 생체지표 반응을 이용하여 중립 및 부정감성(슬픔, 공포, 놀람)의 분류하였다. 이를 위하여 감성에 따른 생체지표 반응의 차이를 확인하였고, 다중 신경망 알고리즘 기반의 감성 인식기를 적용하여 이들 감성이 얼마나 정확하게 분류되는가를 확인하였다. 총 146명의 실험 참가자(평균 연령 20.1±4.0, 남성 41%)를 대상으로 감성 유발 자극을 제시하고 동시에 생체신호(심전도, 혈류맥파, 피부전기활동)를 측정하였다. 또한 감성 유발 자극에 대한 심리 반응을 감성 평가 척도로 평가하였다. 측정된 생체신호에서 심박률(HR), NN 간격의 표준편차(SDNN), 혈류량(BVP), 맥파전달시간(PTT), 피부전도수준(SCL), 피부전도반응 (SCR)을 추출하였다. 결과 분석을 위하여 감성 자극에 대한 각성도와 안정 상태와 감성 상태의 생체지표 반응을 활용하였다. 또한 감성 분류를 위하여 다중 신경망 기반의 감성 인식기를 활용하였다. 그 결과, 감성에 따른 생체지표 반응의 차이를 확인하였고, 이들 감성의 분류 성능은 각성도와 모든 생체지표 특징들을 조합하였을 때 정확도가 가장 높음(86.9%)을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 심리 및 생체지표 추출과 기계학습 기술의 적용을 통하여 부정 감성을 분류할 수 있음을 제안하며, 이는 인간의 감성을 탐지하는 감성 인식 기술을 확립하는데 기여할 것으로 예상한다.
The mechanism of emotion is complex and influenced by a variety of factors, so that it is crucial to analyze emotion in broad and diversified perspectives. In this study, we classified neutral and negative emotions(sadness, fear, surprise) using arousal evaluation, which is one of the psychological evaluation scales, as well as physiological signals. We have not only revealed the difference between physiological signals coupled to the emotions, but also assessed how accurate these emotions can be classified by our emotional recognizer based on neural network algorithm. A total of 146 participants(mean age 20.1 ± 4.0, male 41%) were emotionally stimulated while their physiological signals of the electrocardiogram, blood flow, and dermal activity were recorded. In addition, the participants evaluated their psychological states on the emotional rating scale in response to the emotional stimuli. Heart rate(HR), standard deviation(SDNN), blood flow(BVP), pulse wave transmission time(PTT), skin conduction level(SCL) and skin conduction response(SCR) were calculated before and after the emotional stimulation. As a result, the difference between physiological responses was verified corresponding to the emotions, and the highest emotion classification performance of 86.9% was obtained using the combined analysis of arousal and physiological features. This study suggests that negative emotion can be categorized by psychological and physiological evaluation along with the application of machine learning algorithm, which can contribute to the science and technology of detecting human emotion.

1929: Mayfair Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, PA
Philadelphia Presbytery 300, Philadelphia
Mayfair Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, PA, undated.
The UPNA Presbytery of Philadelphia purchased a lot in the newly developing area of Mayfair in Northeast Philadelphia and began a mission there in March, 1929. Seven months later, on October 24, 1929, the Presbytery organized the Mayfair United Presbyterian Church at Tudor, Bleigh and Crispin Streets.
As Mayfair developed, this church grew in membership to a high of 603 by 1960. The Sunday school reached its peak of 502 in 1940. After 1960 the church felt the pressure of the surrounding heavily Roman Catholic community, and nearby Jewish neighborhoods. The 1970 membership of 450 was still reassuring, but the Sunday school enrollment of 109 suggested further decline ahead. That's exactly what happened. Membership went down to 248 in 1980 and to 152 in 1990. There were only 30 pupils in the Sunday school that year. For the most part as Presbyterians moved from Mayfair to other places, their replacements were either Roman Catholic, Jewish or members of other Protestant groups. In 1990 the Mayfair United and Holmesburg churches, a mile apart, began several joint programs, using their leadership and facilities to extend their outreach in both neighborhoods.
In 2009, after several years of joint programming and sharing of staff, the First Presbyterian Church of Holmesburg closed and several of their members joined the Mayfair Presbyterian congregation. In 2009 Mayfair agreed to have a daycare use our facilities which greatly helped with the expenses of the church. Soon there were 45-60 children from infancy to eighth grade attending the daycare. After six years, the existing daycare closed due to difficulties with inspections. After much prayer and hard work, a new daycare has opened in 2017 under new leadership which we hope will be of service to the families of the community for years to come. For the past two years, a small Lutheran congregation named St. Anthony's has used our sanctuary for Sunday services. Like Mayfair, theirs is a small faithful gathering of 15-20 members. Although we do not have Sunday school, we have been blessed to have the same pastor for six years who has also enriched us with a Bible study of the Holy Land. We have a small choir of six devoted women led by our choir director/organist. The Martha circle is a group of faithful women who meet monthly for Bible study, prayer, mission work, and fellowship. The session is planning to lead the congregation in some local outreach projects this year.
This brief history was recently updated as a part of the Presbytery of Philadelphia's 300th Anniversary Year of Celebration and Witness. The story of the congregations throughout the Presbytery were revised to remind us of our past even as we live into the present and move towards God's promised future.

Home News Editorial Is Loiusiana kick-the-can state as legislator says?
Is Loiusiana kick-the-can state as legislator says?
Rep. Barry Ivey of Baton Rouge said during the ill-fated special legislative session earlier this month that "Louisiana is shaped like a boot, because we're a kick-the-can state every time." That sums up this state's failure to embrace desperately-needed fiscal reform. In this year's regular session and two special sessions, it was clear that many legislators were content to keep the state limping along with patched up, slipshod budgets that do not address deep fiscal problems which keep Louisiana from progressing. State government finances that crashed in Louisiana after Bobby Jindal started his two terms as governor with a billion dollar surplus and left the state with a $2 billion deficit have created tenacious storms of division and discontent that continue to batter the state.
With little support in the legislature for a plan to offset a $700 million shortfall for the new fiscal year that starts in July, the new budget that finally emerges from lawmakers will not provide the resources Louisiana needs to climb out of its gloom and despair. Inadequate state funding for higher education, health care and economic development is a major factor in Louisiana's listing at the very bottom of the Best States in America report from U.S. News and World Report for the second straight year.
Louisiana's Gross Domestic Product growth rate of 0.2 percent last year was last in the 50 states, reflecting a stagnant, diminishing economy that offers too little promise for young people trying to find places in the workforce today or for future generations. Colleges and universities are struggling to remain vibrant and continue to pass increased costs on to students after being cut by more than 60 percent in the past decade. Public schools rank in the bottom five in the nation in student achievement.
The state's poverty rate is one of the highest in the nation, and its personal income ranks near the bottom. Crime is rampant, and jails are overcrowded. Roads and bridges across the state are crumbling as the $13 billion backlog for construction and repairs keeps growing. There is also a multi-billion dollar accumulation of delayed projects to repair facilities at universities and other state-operated entities. The nation's top three credit rating agencies have all lowered Louisiana's credit rating over the past two years because of concerns about budget shortfalls and fiscal stability.
That will make it more expensive for the state to obtain funding for future projects. But legislators refuse to enact permanent or at least long-lasting solutions to the state's glaring and ongoing financial problems, and its citizens and their children and grandchildren will suffer the consequences for decades to come.

It hovers in the air!
The Lamp is the first enemy encountered in Earthbound Beginnings, and the first enemy introduced in the Mother series. It is encountered when Ninten tries to leave his room, which prompts his lamp to come to life and attack him. The battle is very straightforward, as Ninten and the Lamp only know basic attacks.
After Ninten defeats the Lamp, he can proceed to rescue his sisters Mimmie and Minnie from their attackers. A second, optional Lamp can be found in Minnie's room; it cannot be found after winning the required battle against the Doll in Mimmie's room, however.
The Lamp is one of the few enemies in Earthbound Beginnings that has an overworld sprite, along with the Doll, Starman Jr., Stray Dog, and Starman.
The two Lamps and one Doll in Ninten's house give just enough EXP to get Ninten to level two.

Rumsfeld Told The Truth
Remember The Victims of Terrorism
John Kerry's War Crimes
by Cliff Kincaid on May 24, 2004
http://www.aim.org/mp3/2004/05/24.mp3
The Washington Post has run two articles over three days highlighting how John Kerry has criticized the Bush administration's handling of the Iraqi prisoner abuse story. Kerry thinks Donald Rumsfeld should go and that Bush should take responsibility. In both of these stories, however, the Post failed to mention that Kerry himself admitted committing war crimes in Vietnam.
To his credit, Tim Russert confronted Kerry with his own words from 1971 on Meet the Press. Kerry had said, during an April 18, 1971, appearance on Meet the Press: "There are all kinds of atrocities and I would have to say that, yes, yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed in that I took part in shootings in free-fire zones. I conducted harassment and interdiction fire. I used 50-caliber machine guns which we were granted and ordered to use, which were our only weapon against people. I took part in search-and-destroy missions, in the burning of villages. All of this is contrary to the laws of warfare. All of this is contrary to the Geneva Conventions and all of this ordered as a matter of written established policy by the government of the United States from the top down." Kerry said those who condoned or engaged in such activities were war criminals.
After running that clip, Russert said to Kerry: "You committed atrocities." Kerry said that the word "atrocities" is "a bad word" and "inappropriate." Asked about using the phrase, "war criminals," Kerry replied that the words "were honest but on the other hand, they were a little bit over the top." He said he regretted them.
Russert came back to this topic, saying, "But, Senator, when you testified before the Senate, you talked about some of the hearings you had observed at the winter soldiers meeting and you said that people had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and on and on. A lot of those stories have been discredited?" Kerry shot back, "Actually, a lot of them have been documented." Russert said, "So you stand by that?" Kerry replied, "A lot of those stories have been documented."
Typically, Kerry is flip-flopping. He doesn't want to use the word "atrocities" but still insists that stories of atrocities have been documented. This is confusing to many. But a fair reading of his comments demonstrates that he stands guilty, by his own admission, of committing and witnessing atrocities. The question is, why the Post and other media continue to fail to mention this information when they highlight Kerry's criticism of Bush's handling of the Iraqi prisoner story. After all, there's no accusation that Bush or Rumsfeld committed any atrocities against these prisoners.
The media are letting Kerry set a standard for the administration that he failed to uphold for himself. Kerry is using the media to divert attention away from his own record of war crimes and atrocities. The Post is willingly acting as a house organ of the Kerry campaign, setting the stage for the possible election of a monumental hypocrite?and admitted war criminal?as U.S. President.

Yesterday, while in the car, Isabelle asked, "Where is Heaven?" It came out of nowhere since we hadn't been talking about anything around the subject any time recently. Whenever one of these big life questions comes up, I feel like I always have no idea what to say. So I answered by saying that it's up in the sky above the clouds. She then followed it by asking "How do you get to Heaven?" I really had a tough time coming up with an answer to this one on the spot. So I said when you are sick or there's an accident, God decides it's time for you to join him and you go up to Heaven. Apparently, I shouldn't have stressed about this answer because her follow up question of "Do you climb a ladder to get there?" made it clear that she literally meant how do you get there. I should have remembered that I was dealing with a four year old who was thinking of how to physically get above the clouds and not someone looking for a big meaningful talk about God! She went for totally gut wrenching with the next question of, "What do you think your Mom is doing in Heaven?" Isabelle was only one when my mother died so she doesn't remember her, but we talk about her often and we bring flowers to the cemetery. So I told her that Grammy is doing all the things she loves, eating her favorite foods, watching over us, and loving us from Heaven. She seemed pleased with this answer and all in all I think the talk went well (I also struggled when she asked if there were kids in Heaven). I love that she is curious and that she wants to know more about life, death, and all that comes in between. Sometimes I just wish that I had more time to think up the answers!
How do you handle the rough questions?
Turn left at the second cloud and Heaven will be on your right.
As many of you know, Daniel is large and in charge but has been pretty quiet up until now. He has only said "uh oh," "ho ho ho (as in Santa)," and "ball." For being (almost) twenty months old and only having these few words, the doctor has been encouraging me to have him evaluated for speech therapy I haven't done it though because I'm not a worry wart and feel that he will talk when he's ready. Well I'm happy to report that it appears that he is ready! Just within the last week, he has been popping out all kinds of new words. He's now added Dadda, bus, peekaboo, backpack, more, car, hi, and bye. Pretty much each day a new word is coming out and he is using them often and frequently. I also have to say that he looks so ridiculously cute frantically waiving out the window and yelling "hi" at anyone that walks by that it was totally worth the wait!
Since we moved to our house, each Spring we have had a problem with ants. It's one of those things where one day we will see one in our kitchen and then within a couple of days, there are tons chillin' in our house like we are a resort destination. We were having a professional exterminator come out to spray inside the house and the outside perimeter. Clearly, this was costing us a pretty penny but if it meant the ants were gone then I was okay with it. I do not like bugs and I particularly do not like bugs in my house. Last year, I saw the first scout the Friday of Easter weekend and thought for sure that the Easter Bunny would be scared away by the army of ants that was sure to invade before we would be able to have the exterminator out. So I decided to try out a homemade ant trap to hold off our tiny little "friends" until we would be able to get someone out. It turns out that my homemade concoction did the trick and killed off ALL the ants and we never even had to have the professionals out at all to spray! I put it out that Friday night and within a few days all the ants were gone – GONE! I've shared this info with a few friends who have also had success with it so I figured I'd share here.
Combine all ingredients until it's a soupy consistency. Leave mixture out in small, shallow containers where you have seen the ants. Keep in mind that the ants need to be able to easily get to it. I used the lids to baby food since that was what I had available. It's best to leave the bait as undisturbed as possible - don't touch it, move it, or even refill it (unless the ants no longer have enough to eat).
The ants then enjoy the "food" and also carry it back to the nests to kill off the whole colony. Sha-bam! When you first put out the bait you will notice an increase in ants. This is okay. The scout ant has simply let his friends know about the food and you want as many of them to eat it as possible. Resist the urge to kill them when you see them because you want them to bring it back to the colony.
Each ant that eats the bait will die withing 12-48 hours. Some people will notice a decrease in ants within a day and for some it will take a week or more. It all just depends on the size of the ant colony that you are working on killing.
If you notice that the ants are ignoring the bait then there is probably too much Borax in it and you should add more sugar. You want to make sure that you have enough Borax in it to kill them but not too much that they can smell/taste it and don't consume it. The recipe above worked for me but you can tweak it if your ants have a finer taste palate than mine! You can also adjust the quantity that you make by cutting the recipe in half, doubling it, etc.
For all of you out there fighting the ant battle, best of luck!
This was our ant trap a few hours after I put it out. Gross, yet oh so effective!
Today, I was helping out and doing some babysitting for a small group of kids with another woman. Of course, I also had my three kids with me. Yes, I recognize that it is kind of odd for the babysitter to show up with three kids of her own in tow! Anyway, the other woman I was babysitting was an older woman who we had never met before. Henry was standing by her and then said (loudly), ""Her teeth are scary!! Why are her teeth so scary?! Mamma, did you see her scary teeth??" Gotta love the filter-less system of a toddler!
What's the most embarrassing thing your kid has said to someone in public?
Last week marked the five year anniversary of Tim and I purchasing our house (our first house at that). We closed on Friday March 1, 2007 and did not have the picture perfect move in experience that one hopes for. The closing went off without a hitch and we excitedly headed to our new house. The big move would be the next day with our friends and family but we were taking over a few things on our own and also had the cable guy coming to install everything. It was a cold, rainy, icy, miserable day which would only end up getting worse. We decided to run the dishwasher mainly to make sure it worked and figured it hadn't been run in a while so we might as well, right? After it had been going for a while, the cable man shouted up from the basement that we should turn off the water because water was coming in the basement. In actuality, water was GUSHING into the basement from a pipe. We spent the rest of the day using buckets, mops, and a wet vac to get the water out. The house had been empty for a while before we bought it so we figured that there must have been some part of the pipe that was frozen. We were able to open up and empty out the pipes in the basement (which only added more water to the basement/bucket project). Oh, and of course while all this was going on, we couldn't use any water in the house which normally wouldn't have been a problem. However, I had just found out a few days before that I was pregnant with baby number one (Isabelle) and would have given anything to be able to use the bathroom! We ended up doing all we could, we found some ice in the pipe as it left the house to head to the septic and got rid of it but it didn't solve the problem. Water still couldn't flow out of the house to the septic and just kept coming back in the basement. So we had to call it a night and bright and early our friends and family arrived at our apartment to help us move. After slipping on some black ice (which is a pretty awesome thing to do when you just find out your pregnant) I headed to the house to wait for the septic guy to come since we had run out of "do it yourself" fixes. He arrived and said that the septic itself must be full and perhaps frozen and he would need to pump it. Great, however, the ground is covered in snow/ice so he needs to jackhammer the front yard to get to it. "Oh hey, new neighbors don't mind us with our jackhammer and moving truck!" After all the hammering it turned out the septic was completely empty and not the problem at all. He put our lawn back together as much as possible and told us to just run hot water on low indefinitely until any "hidden" ice in the pipes melted. Sure enough, this simple fix was exactly what we needed and we were finally able to use the water again.
Our front yard on move in day!
Apparently, when the contractor installed the new toilet before we moved in, he must have accidentally knocked his tape measure down the pipe and it had been living there ever since. So alas alas, it turned out the tape measure was indeed what was making it difficult for things to get down the pipe. Never a dull moment when you are a new home owner, right?!
Three years ago today, my mom passed away. I've been spending the last hour writing and then rewriting this post. I would start down one path and then end up somewhere totally different. I would start with talking about how funny and strong she was and then end up talking about how I remember Beverly Hills 90210 was playing on the tv when she took her last breath. (For the record, we both loved that show!). I would start talking about how she drove me crazy all the time and then end up talking about how completely horrible it was to see her deteriorate right in front of my eyes. I would start by saying how I have so many unanswered questions for her and end with the amount of pizza and donuts that I consumed while sitting vigil during her last few days. I would start talking about how I never wanted her to leave and end with how I eventually begged God to take her. I guess I'm just not ready to write an eloquent post about it yet. What I do know is that in my last words to her, I told her to let go because we were all going to be okay. We were going to take care of each other. And you know what? It was the truth. We are okay and we will continue to be okay because she has given us the strength to do it.
My mom and new baby Henry just a couple of weeks before she passed away. I'm so glad she was able to meet him.

\section{Introduction}

There has been enormous interest in investigating the switching of the magnetization of a nanomagnet by the spin-polarized electric current or by the electric field as possible routes to increasing computer speed. Spin transfer torque random access memory (STT-RAM) devices have been successfully engineered as cache memory and have entered the market. Large effort has been developed to achieve fast switching of the magnetic moment by the electric field in magnets interfaced with piezoelectric materials and in multiferroic systems \cite{bibbar08natmat,chumarhol08natmat,wanliuren09advphy,hertraash11prl,ferzahost12prl,luxia14prb}. This latter task is difficult to achieve due the linear relation, ${\bf M} \propto {\bf E}$, between the magnetic moment ${\bf M}$ and the electric field ${\bf E}$ is prohibited by symmetry. It prompted researchers to look for, e.g., $90$-degree rotation of the magnetization through the effect of the electric field on the magnetic anisotropy, or consider combined effects of the electric field and the exchange bias in layered systems.

In this paper we propose a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) for switching of the magnetic moment by the electric field that is based upon a different principle. It follows from the observation that symmetry permits linear relation between ${\bf M}$ and the angular velocity ${\bm \Omega}$ of the rotation. The latter can be generated by a pulse of the electric field applied to a multiferroic particle attached to a torsional cantilever, or by the electric field pulse applied to a ferroelectric cantilever containing a magnetic particle. According to the Larmor theorem, in the coordinate frame of a nanomagnet, torsional vibrations are equivalent to the ac magnetic field \cite{chu04prl,chugarsch05prb}. The latter is known to be capable of switching the magnetic moment, see, e.g., Ref.  \onlinecite{CGC-PRB2013} and references therein. The advantage of mechanical vibrations over the ac magnetic field is that they can be localized at the nanoscale. This permits miniaturization down to molecular dimensions as has been demonstrated by recent measurements of a single molecular spin in a NEMS obtained by grafting of a single-molecule magnet on a carbon nanotube \cite{ganklyrub13NatNano,ganklyrub13acsNano}.

A particle with a magnetic moment ${\bf M}$ and electric polarization ${\bf P}$  is a part of a torsional oscillator rotating about the $X$ axis. The system is placed inside a pair of capacitors. The reversal of the magnetic moment is generated by pulse voltages, $V_x$ and $V_y$, on the capacitors.}
\label{geometry}
\end{figure}
Coupling of mechanical vibrations to the magnetization of a thin film deposited on a small cantilever has been studied before \cite{Kovalev-APL2003}. In a multidomain magnetic film it is related to the motion of domain walls \cite{Wallis-APL2006,jaachugar09prb,limimtwal14epl}.  In a single-domain system the magnetomechanical magnetization reversal was shown to have strong sensitivity to the parameters \cite{Kovalev-PRL2005}. The concept of spin-rotation coupling  sheds new light on the origin of the observed stochasticity.  Circularly polarized ac field switches the magnetic moment in a predictable manner via the consecutive absorption of photons of one helicity (i.e., one spin projection) while a linearly polarized field consists of photons of different helicity that are absorbed intermittently, raising or decreasing the corresponding projection of the magnetic moment. Although torsional vibrations cannot be reduced to either linear or circular polarized ac field, understanding of how the ac field reverses the magnetic moment \cite{CGC-PRB2013} allows one to design the optimal geometry in which rotations induced by the electric field can do the job.

The equivalence of mechanical rotations to the ac magnetic field in the rotating frame makes the problem of the electromechanical magnetization reversal uniquely defined and free of any unknown coupling constants. Interaction of the magnetic moment with torsional oscillations is completely determined by the Larmor theorem and by the dynamics of the total angular momentum \cite{chu14springer}, spin plus mechanical, in the presence of the mechanical torque generated by the electric field. The paper is organized as follows. The system under consideration and the model are described in Section \ref{model} where dynamical equations for the magnetic moment and mechanical rotations caused by the time-dependent electric field are derived. Numerical solution of the equations and switching phase diagrams are presented in Section \ref{numerical}. Estimates for real systems and possible applications of our results are discussed in Section \ref{discussion}.

\section{The model and dynamics of the system}\label{model}
\subsection{Model}
We consider the system schematically represented in Fig. \ref{geometry}. Magnetic energy of the uniaxial ferromagnetic particle in its own coordinate frame is given by
\begin{equation}
E_M = -KVm_z^2 - V{\bf m} \cdot {\bf H},
\end{equation}
where $K$ is the magnetic anisotropy constant, $V$ is the volume of the particle, ${\bf H}$ is the magnetic field in the frame of the particle, and ${\bf m} = {\bf M}/V$ is its constant-length magnetization. The body-frame $Z$-axis in this formula coincides with the easy magnetization direction. The particle is allowed to rotate mechanically around the $X$-axis, with $\rho$ being the angle that the easy axis makes in the $YZ$-plane with the stationary $Z$ direction in the laboratory frame.

We shall assume that, in addition to the magnetic moment, the system also possesses the electric polarization characterized by the vector ${\bf P}$ directed along the anisotropy axis of the particle. This can be achieved by either using a composite multiferroic material or by interfacing the magnet with the ferroelectric. Interaction of the electric polarization with the crystal lattice, being of Coulomb origin, is strong, providing that the orientation of the particle in space follows the orientation of ${\bf P}$. On the contrary, interaction of ${\bf M}$ with the mechanical rotation of the particle is of the relativistic spin-orbit origin. Consequently, the magnetization vector  does not necessarily follow the rotations of the anisotropy axis if the latter are sufficiently fast.

Mechanical rotation of the particle in our model is achieved due to the interaction of ${\bf P}$ with the electric field ${\bf E}$,
\begin{equation}
E_{P} = - {\bf P} \cdot {\bf E}.
\end{equation}
No interaction of ${\bf M}$ with ${\bf P}$ in addition to the magnetic anisotropy is assumed. The effective coupling between ${\bf M}$ and ${\bf E}$ is provided by the rotation of the magnetic anisotropy axis that follows the direction of ${\bf P}$. The easiest way to take this effect into account is by noticing that according to the Larmor theorem the rotation with the angular velocity ${\bm \Omega} = (d\rho/dt)\hat{\bf x}$ generates the effective magnetic field
\begin{equation}
{\bf H}_R  = \frac{1}{\gamma}\frac{d\rho}{dt}\hat{\bf x}
\end{equation}
in the coordinate frame of the rotating particle. In what follows we shall assume that no external magnetic field is applied. Correspondingly, ${\bf H}_R$ is the only field felt by the particle in its own coordinate frame.

While the easy magnetization axis in our model follows the direction of the electric polarization ${\bf P}$, the latter does not necessarily follow the direction of the electric field ${\bf E}$ because of the finite moment of inertia of the rotator.  We shall now proceed to the derivation of coupled equations for the magnetic moment and mechanical rotation caused by the application of the time-dependent electric field.

\subsection{Dynamical equation for the magnetic moment in the rotating frame}
The equation of motion for ${\bf s}={\bf m}/|{\bf m}|$ in the coordinate frame rigidly coupled to the particle is \cite{Lectures}
\begin{equation}\label{LL}
\frac{d\mathbf{{s}}}{dt}  = \gamma\left[\mathbf{s}\times {\bf H}_{\rm eff}\right]
 - \alpha\gamma\left[\mathbf{s}\times\left[\mathbf{s}\times{\bf H}_{\rm eff}\right]\right],
\end{equation}
where  $\gamma$ is the gyromagnetic ratio, $\alpha$ is the dimensionless damping coefficient, and $ {\bf H}_{\rm eff}$ is the effective magnetic field given by
\begin{equation}
{\bf H}_{\rm eff} = -\frac{1}{V}\frac{\partial E_M}{\partial {\bf m}} = {\bf H}_A + {\bf H}_R,
\end{equation}
with ${\bf H}_A = 2Km_z\hat{\bf z}$ being the effective field due to the magnetic anisotropy.

Introducing the frequency of the ferromagnetic resonance, $\omega_{\rm FMR} = 2\gamma Km$, and the dimensionless time $t' = \omega_{\rm FMR}t$, Eq. (\ref{LL}) can be written as
\begin{eqnarray}\label{eq:LLE-Rotating_frame}
\frac{d\mathbf{{s}}}{dt'} & = &\left[\mathbf{s}\times\left(s_z\hat{\bf z}+\frac{d{\rho}(t')}{dt'}\hat{\bf x}\right)\right] \nonumber \\
& -& \alpha\left[\mathbf{s}\times\left[\mathbf{s}\times\left(s_z\hat{\bf z}+\frac{d{\rho}(t')}{dt'}\hat{\bf x}\right)\right]\right].
\end{eqnarray}
At small damping, $\alpha \ll 1$, the last term in Eq. (\ref{eq:LLE-Rotating_frame}) can be replaced with $-\alpha[{\bf s} \times d{\bf s}/dt']$.

Writing ${\bf s}$ in spherical coordinates in the body frame of the rotator, ${\bf s} = (sin\theta\cos\phi, \sin\theta\sin\phi,\cos\theta)$, one obtains the following equations for the angles describing the direction of the magnetization with respect to the fixed axes inside the rotating particle
\begin{align}
\frac{d\theta}{dt'} = \frac{d\rho}{dt'}\sin\phi -\alpha \sin\theta \cos\theta +\alpha \frac{d\rho}{dt'} \cos\theta \cos\phi
\label{theta-eq-rot-alpha}.
\end{align}
\begin{align}
\frac{d\phi}{dt'} = -\cos\theta + \frac{d\rho}{dt'} \cos\phi \cot\theta - \alpha \frac{d\rho}{dt'} \frac{\sin\phi}{\sin\theta}
\label{phi-eq-rot-alpha}.
\end{align}

Before studying rotations generated by the electric field, one can ask what $\rho(t)$ would provide the optimum magnetization reversal. In the case of the ac field such optimum reversal occured in one plane, $\phi = {\rm const}$ \cite{CGC-PRB2013}. Setting $\phi = \varphi_0$ in Eqs. (\ref{theta-eq-rot-alpha}) and (\ref{phi-eq-rot-alpha}) one obtains at $\alpha = 0$
\begin{equation}\label{const phi}
 \frac{d{\rho}}{dt'} = \frac{1}{\sin \varphi_0}\frac{d{\theta}}{dt'} = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \varphi_0}.
\end{equation}
Integration gives
\begin{equation}
\tan \frac{\theta}{2} = e^{t' \tan \varphi_0}
\end{equation}
which corresponds to the switching of the magnetization from $\theta = 0$ at $t' = -\infty$ to $\theta = \pi$ at $t' = +\infty$. According to Eq.\ (\ref{const phi}) the function $\rho(t')$ that generates such  behavior is given by
\begin{equation}
\rho =\frac{2\arctan [\exp (t' \tan \varphi_0)]}{\sin \varphi_0}.
\end{equation}
It describes the rotation that exponentially turns on at $\rho = 0$ and dies out at $\rho = \pi/ \sin \varphi_0$, thus, effectively a characteristic time interval $\Delta t \sim 1/(\omega_{FMR}\tan \varphi_0)$. This kind of switching requires the rotation of the magnet by a significant angle. Curiously, if $\varphi_0 = 30^o$, the $360^o$ rotation does the job. It provides a good hint into the speed and amplitude of the rotations that should be implemented with the help of the electric field pulse to achieve magnetization reversal.

\subsection{Dynamical equation for the torsional oscillator}
Modeling of the effect of the field requires knowledge of the equation of motion of the torsional oscillator that must be solved together with the dynamical equations for the magnetization, Eqs. (\ref{theta-eq-rot-alpha}) and (\ref{phi-eq-rot-alpha}). For rotations about the $X$-axis it follows from the equation
\begin{equation}\label{torsional}
\frac{dJ_{x}}{dt}={\tau}_{x},
\end{equation}
 where ${\bf J}$ is the total angular momentum and ${\bm \tau}$ is the mechanical torque. The total angular momentum consists of the spin angular momentum, $\hbar{\bf S} = {\bf M}/\gamma$ and the mechanical angular momentum, $I_r{d\rho}/{dt}$,
\begin{equation}\label{momentum}
{J}_{x}=\hbar S_x+I_r\frac{d\rho}{dt},
\end{equation}
where $I_r$ is the moment of inertia of the rotator.

When the rotation is generated by the electric field ${\bf E}$ acting on the electric polarization ${\bf P}$, the potential energy of the rotator consists of the elastic part and the part generated by the interaction with the field,
\begin{equation}\label{U}
 U = E_E + E_P = \frac{1}{2}I_r\omega_r^2 \rho^2- {\bf P} \cdot {\bf  E}.
\end{equation}
Here $\omega_r$ is the resonance frequency of the torsional oscillator. Note the proportionality of the elastic energy to $\rho^2$. In nanowires it is justified even for large rotation angles \cite{Weinberger-2010}. The torque is given by
\begin{equation}\label{torque}
{\tau}_{x}=-\frac{\partial U}{\partial \rho}=-I_r\omega_r^2\rho + \frac{d({\bf P}\cdot{\bf E})}{d\rho},
\end{equation}
where ${\bf P} = P(0,-\sin\rho, \cos\rho)$.

For, e.g., the electric field directed along the $Y$-axis, ${\bf E} = (0,E,0)$, one obtains from Eq.\ (\ref{torsional}) the following dimensionless torque equation
\begin{equation}\label{rho-eq-1}
\frac{d^2\rho}{dt'^2} +\omega_r'\eta \frac{d\rho}{dt'}+\omega_r'^2[\rho + p(t')\cos\rho]= -\frac{1}{I_r'}\frac{d}{dt'}(\sin\theta \cos \phi),
\end{equation}
where
\begin{equation}
\omega_r'=\frac{\omega_r}{\omega_{FMR}}, \quad I_r'=\frac{I_r\omega_{FMR}}{\hbar S}, \quad p(t') = \frac{PE(t')}{I_r\omega_r^2}.
\end{equation}
This case corresponds to the utilization of only the $Y$-capacitor shown in Fig.\ \ref{geometry}. Notice that we have introduced the mechanical damping term in Eq.\ (\ref{rho-eq-1}), proportional to the damping parameter $\eta$.

For torsional oscillations about a fixed axis, induced by a pulse of the linearly polarized electric field, as in Eq.\ (\ref{rho-eq-1}), the problem resembles the problem with a linearly polarized ac magnetic field for which the chaotic behavior of ${\bf s}$ should be expected. It makes sense, therefore, to consider a two component electric field, ${\bf E} = (0,E_y,E_z)$, generated by two pairs of capacitors shown in Fig. \ref{geometry}. One has to find the optimal ${\bf E}(t)$ that reverses the magnetization with the initial conditions $E = 0$, $\theta = \rho = 0$, at $t =0$. The most promising case turns out to be the case of a rotating field: ${\bf E} = E(t)(0,-\sin \omega' t', \cos \omega' t')$ of varying amplitude $E(t)$. Then ${\bf P} \cdot {\bf E} = PE(t)\cos(\rho - \omega' t')$ and the torque on the magnetic particle is
\begin{equation}
\tau_x  = -I_r\omega_r^2\rho -PE(t)\sin(\rho -\omega' t')
\end{equation}
Instead of Eq.\ (\ref{rho-eq-1}) one obtains
\begin{eqnarray}\label{eq-rho-2}
&&\frac{d^2\rho}{dt'^2} +\omega_r'\eta \frac{d\rho}{dt'}+\omega_r'^2\left[\rho + p(t')\sin(\rho-\omega' t')\right] \nonumber  \\
&& = -\frac{1}{I_r'}\frac{d}{dt'}(\sin\theta \cos \phi)
\end{eqnarray}
The right-hand-side of this equation represents the Einstein - de Haas effect, that is, the back effect of the change in the magnetization on the mechanical motion of the oscillator. It is small when parameter $I'_r$, representing the ratio of the mechanical angular momentum and the spin angular momentum, is large. Notice that a stationary electric field directed along the stationary $Z$-axis in the laboratory frame corresponds to $\omega' = 0$. In this case $\rho = 0$, ${\bf s} = {\rm const}$ is the solution of the equations in accordance with the expectation that such a field does not generate mechanical rotation.

\label{dynamics2}
\end{figure}
In this Section we present results of the numerical study of the magnetization reversal governed by equations (\ref{theta-eq-rot-alpha}), (\ref{phi-eq-rot-alpha}), and (\ref{eq-rho-2}). In the numerical work we choose $\alpha = 0.01$ for the Landau-Lifshits-Gilbert damping parameter, which is in the right ballpark for single-domain magnetic particles \cite{Kalmykov-PRB2010}. As long as $\alpha$ is small, our results are not very sensitive to its exact value. They exhibit much greater sensitivity to the damping of the oscillations of the torsional resonator $\eta$. Strong mechanical damping provides deterministic ranges of parameters for which the switching occurs, while weak damping gives more stochastic dependence on parameters. For that reason we present numerical results for two cases: Weak mechanical damping, $\eta = 0.01$, and strong mechanical damping, $\eta = 0.5$.

We apply a pulse of the rotating electric field, ${\bf E} = E_0(0,-\sin \omega' t', \cos \omega' t')$, of constant amplitude $E_0$ to the resonator shown in Fig. \ref{geometry}. The field is initially aligned with the electric polarization and then is rotated by $360^o$, which corresponds to a non-zero value of $\omega'$ within the time interval satisfying, $0 < \omega't' < 2\pi$ and zero $\omega'$ outside that time interval. This generates mechanical oscillations of the resonator and the ac magnetic field in the coordinate frame of the magnet. From practical point of view one only needs to switch the magnetization, preserving the orientation of the magnetization carrier in space. Static solutions of Eq.\ (\ref{eq-rho-2}) satisfy
\begin{equation}\label{static}
\rho + p_0\sin\rho = 0
\end{equation}
The return of the oscillator to its initial, $\rho = 0$, orientation in space at the end of the field rotation is guaranteed if $\rho = 0$ is the only solution of Eq.\ (\ref{static}). It is easy to see that this occurs when the amplitude of the electric field satisfies $p_0 < p_c = 4.60334$. At high fields the oscillator stays twisted (that is, with $\rho \neq 0$) at the end of the field rotation if the field is not switched off or reduced below $p_0 = p_c$.

\end{figure}

Typical dynamics of the magnetization and the rotational dynamics of the oscillator are illustrated by Fig.\ \ref{dynamics1} and Fig.\ \ref{dynamics2}. The dynamics is sensitive to the ratio, $\omega'_r$, of the resonant frequency of the oscillator and the FMR frequency, and to the ratio, $\omega'$, of the frequency of the field rotation and the FMR frequency. It is also sensitive to the electromechanical factor $p_0$ that is proportional to the amplitude of the electric field $E_0$, and to the mechanical damping of the oscillator $\eta$. Switching vs non-switching is less sensetive to the parameter $\alpha$ when it is small, and has little sensitivity to the normalized moment of inertia of the oscillator $I'_r$ as long as it is large, meaning that under these conditions the damping term in Eq.\ (\ref{LL}) and the right-hand-side of Eq.\ (\ref{eq-rho-2}) contribute weakly to the dynamics of the system. In the numerical work we choose $I'_r = 100$. Magnetization reversal for strong and weak damping of the oscillator is illustrated in Fig.\ \ref{dynamics1}. For a different set of parameters chosen in Fig.\ \ref{dynamics2}a no reversal takes place at the end of the field-rotation cycle. When $p_0 > p_c$ the oscillator, in accordance with expectation, ends up in a twisted state with a non-zero asymptotic value of $\rho$, see Fig.\ \ref{dynamics2}b.

Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-frequencies} shows the switching phase diagram in the $(\omega', \omega'_r)$ plane. Weak mechanical damping, $\eta = 0.01$, results in a stochastic dependence on parameters, Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-frequencies}a, which is a consequence of the high non-linearity of the dynamical equations. Strong damping, $\eta = 0.5$, gives more deterministic behavior characterized by a compact area of the magnetization reversal, Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-frequencies}b. Both types of behavior exhibit thresholds on $\omega'$ and $\omega'_r$ required for the reversal.

Switching phase diagram in terms of the parameters representing the rotating electric field, $(p_0,\omega')$, is shown in Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-field}. Here again the weak mechanical damping of the oscillator results in a stochastic dependence of the switching on the parameters, which is illustrated by
Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-field}a, while strong damping gives more deterministic behavior, Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-field}b. It shows islands in the $(p_0,\omega')$ plane that provide the required strength of the electric field and the speed of the field rotation.

\section{Discussion} \label{discussion}
We have shown that a magnetic moment of a single-domain magnet that is allowed to perform torsional oscillations with respect to a fixed axis can be switched by the mechanical oscillations alone. This effect arises from the fact that in the reference frame of the magnet the rotation is equivalent to the magnetic field, thus making torsional oscillations equivalent to the ac magnetic field. It is well known \cite{CGC-PRB2013} that the ac magnetic field, even of small amplitude, is capable of  reversing the magnetic moment. The physics of the effect is related to the consecuitive absorption of photons that, having a non-zero angular momentum, change the projection of the spin angular momentum of the magnet. In that sense the mechanical rotations are equivalent to photons, with the spin angular momentum of the magnet absorbing the mechanical angular momentum associated with torsional oscillations.

In this paper we propose to ignite the required mechanical oscillations by the time dependent electric field (voltage) applied to a multiferroic system or to a ferroelectric firmly coupled with a magnet. According to Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-frequencies}, the switching of the magnetic moment occurs when the frequency characterizing the rate of change of the field, and the resonant frequency of the oscillator, are not very small compared to the frequency of the ferromagnetic resonance due to magnetic anisotropy (no external magnetic field is required). The latter is typically in the ballpark of a few GHz.  Nanomechanical oscillators of such frequencies are common nowadays. (Oscillation frequencies, $f = \omega/(2\pi)$, of hundreds of GHz have been reported in NEMS based upon carbon nanotubes \cite{Island}.) The effective magnetic field due to torsional oscillations of amplitude $\rho_0$ at a frequency $\omega = 2\pi f$  is of order  $h \sim \omega \rho_0/\gamma$. For $f$ of a few GHz and $\rho_0 \sim 0.1$ it is in the balpark of $10$mT, which is more than sufficient for magnetization reversal by the ac magnetic field \cite{CGC-PRB2013}, thus allowing for even weaker torsional oscillations than $\rho_0 \sim 0.1$ used in the estimate.

The effect of the electric field on the oscillator is described by the electromechanical ratio $p_0 = PE_0/(I_r\omega_r^2)$. Fig.\ \ref{phasediagram-field} shows that the field pulse results in the magnetization reversal when $p_0$ is not too small compared to one. Estimating the electric polarization $P$ as $P_0V$ and the moment of inertia of the oscillator as $I_r \sim m r^2$, with $P_0, V, m$ and $r$ being the polarization density, the volume, the mass, and the size of the oscillator, respectively, one obtains that the voltage, $V_E \sim E_0 r$ required to operate the device must be of order $V_E \sim m\omega_r^2/P_0$. For $m \sim 10^{-20}kg$, $\omega \sim 10^{10}$s$^{-1}$, and $P_0 \sim 0.1 C/m^2$, this gives voltages in the ballpark of a few volt. Making such a device, while challenging, must be a doable task in the light of the recent progress in manufacturing NEMS. Notice that high quality factor of the nanooscillator that is required for their applications as sensors is not needed for the purpose of magnetization switching. In fact, as our study shows, strong mechanical damping of the oscillator produces more reliable results.

In the event that you are in the planning phases of your following vacation plus they have a rental car, you may choose to consult with your insurance agent concerning the rental car insurance options which you could possibly have.
When it comes to traveling and more especially rental car insurance, industry is incredibly competitive for your dollar. It is because not only do the insurance companies compete for your dollar, but so too do the rental car services, as well as your bank card companies also. And while all this competition may seem as though it works to your advantage as a customer, every one of the marketing hoopla may alter when you yourself really have a collision.
Begin by contacting your insurance agent and find out in case your coverage contains rental car insurance. Most auto insurance policies do include insuring you in a rental car too. Obviously, check this together with your broker. Be sure it contains collision and liability insurance (damage to your car and also to another vehicle). Ensure your present coverage does not fall short of the kind of car you may be planning on renting. For example, should you drive an older car with nominal coverage, perhaps you are placing yourself at risk in the event that you are likely to lease a top level newer car. So, check on any restrictions that the coverage could have. Discover what the conditionals are ahead of time so that you do not get caught short.
If you're looking at getting your rental car insurance through one of your credits cards, you then must shop carefully. Call your company and inquire further to fax or email the details to you. Either way gets their coverage in writing. Again, inquire particularly about collision and liability coverage and when there are any restrictions or stipulations or whole exclusions. Do not presume that simply because they offer you 'insurance' that you'll have the coverage fully shields you.
Contemplating getting the coverage straight from your rental car company? You have got some more investigating to do. Insurance coverage's from rental car companies are around the spot and usually might be filled with a myriad of stipulations and exceptions and definitely not all rental car companies will not be on equal ground.

An Intellectual Love Affair: Guy Davenport and Hugh Kenner
By Dustin Illingworth
Hugh Kenner (left) and Guy Davenport (right)
When we read the collected letters of artists we admire, it tends to erode the marble busts we have chiseled of them like strange and abrasive weather. These are, in some ways, revealing documents—Elizabeth Hardwick suggested that in reading letters "we expect to find the charmer at his nap, slumped, open-mouthed, profoundly himself without thought for appearances." But their disclosures are often merely aspirations in disguise. As a form, the letter encourages gentle self-mythology. Life submits to editing, and if days or weeks produce but one golden aperçu, the letter writer has grown used to treating time with voluptuous contempt. The jittery spontaneity of conversation is slowed down, encased within amber. A glacial, anticipatory pleasure reigns. Letters suggest a dream self, a living fiction, whether bustling and crowded with incident, or possessed of an indolent charm. These emanations that come to resemble their authors' fears and fantasies make for incomplete but fascinating biography.
Though the form itself is vanishing, the pleasures afforded by reading literary correspondence have, if anything, intensified. Given the brittleness of the text message and the anxious sterility of email, there is a luxury to the epistolary rhythm: write—and wait. The fecundity of such a record has obvious appeal for scholars, who set out like lepidopterists, netting scandals, idées fixes, house guests, marital strife, disease, inspiration, signs of madness. The publication of a collection of letters pays the writer the compliment of such scrutiny. Questioning Minds, a gem of the form, was published this October by Counterpoint Press. It collects the voluminous correspondence—more than one thousand letters—between Hugh Kenner, modernist advocate and critic-savant, and Guy Davenport, literary collagist, essayist, and uncanny illustrator. It amounts to something like an intellectual love affair, replete with moments of courtship, seduction, devotion, and, eventually, betrayal. Given the polymathic depth of the correspondents, their associative flair and plasticity, and the sheer duration of their passionate exchange—nearly five decades, all told—we are unlikely to find a document of its like again.
"What is in the author's mind so seldom gets on the page," Kenner wrote to Davenport in 1958, early on in their letters—a shocking sentiment for a man about to embark on one of the lengthiest and most digressive correspondences of the twentieth century. (The collection is wonderfully, exhaustively annotated throughout by editor Edward Burns.) Kenner, then on the faculty at University of California, Santa Barbara, and Davenport, a nontenured lecturer at Haverford College, share ideas in a kind of ecstatic volley. Their friendship is at home in the dialectic; ideas are mere starting points, containers of iterative potential. From the great figures of literary modernism—James Joyce, T. S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, Samuel Beckett, Marianne Moore—to archival curiosa, Sapphic fragments, studies of motion, geodesic math, Walt Disney, Hellenic aesthetics, and the history of cinema ("I think Ulysses owes much to silent film," Kenner wagers), Questioning Minds often reads like the almanac of a brilliant and eccentric family. Beneath the heat of their native curiosity, even the most arcane subjects achieve a sudden, flaring warmth.
Ezra Pound, whom both men idolized, exerts a pull over the correspondents like a collapsed star. Kenner and Davenport met in 1953 while presenting papers on the mercurial poet at Columbia University. That shared obsession animates their exchanges with a kinetic and gossipy energy. Sightings, rumors, and health scares abound. Pound, referred to as "Ez" or "EP", haunts the letters without ever quite fully manifesting. The glimpses we're offered are of a man in his dotage, puttering, cranky, made nearly transparent by time: "The news from Merano is that Ezra has quit writing, hope gone, Cantos unfinished, and is aging about 5 years a month," Kenner laments. Later, while visiting the poet in Italy, Davenport provides this dispatch from a Rapallo beach: "Ez in long black drawers, something Tennyson might have worn in swimming … EP swam a while, floated a while. Bumped into one of the floating platforms gently." The tone is protective, indulgent, lightly mocking though rarely less than affectionate. More than any other scholar, Kenner is responsible for the rehabilitation of Pound—without excusing his frankly terrible politics, he restored his standing as the central figure of literary modernism, il miglior fabbro of Eliot's The Waste Land, the editor of Hemingway's adjectives, the impresario of the literary avant-garde. Kenner's masterpiece, The Pound Era (1971), is a gorgeous, knotty, unthinkably erudite reckoning with the poet's work, "an X-ray moving picture of how our epoch was extricated from the fin de siècle." For a Kenner fan, seeing the first intimations of the book's "patterned integrities" come to life in the letters is pure, voyeuristic pleasure.
There is a similar satisfaction in following the collaborative efforts of the two writers, the fruit of which resulted in a pair of books, The Stoic Comedians: Flaubert, Joyce, and Beckett (1962), and The Counterfeiters: An Historical Comedy (1968). Both featured words by Kenner, and illustrations by Davenport, with drafts and sketches making their way from California to Pennsylvania and back, often accompanied with daring syntheses, marginalia, corrections, affirmations, and words of warm encouragement. Of his images, Davenport writes: "Nor wd I have slaved over 'em—and slave still—for anybody except you, all effort being to approach (hopelessly) the plastic goodness of your prose." Kenner's praise is usually briefer, though no less ardent: "You bury more good work than most of the best have published." As in the greatest collaborative projects, the resulting work has a crackling, synchronous power. It is lucid and passionate criticism that avoids the abstruse literary theory of the sixties and seventies, gorgeously written at a line level—Kenner is a king of phrase making—and webbed with the filaments of ideas first broached in the letters.
The collection, though, is not merely a rich modernist inventory (even if, for some readers, this will happily be its main appeal). There are also instances of unlikely literary adventure and intrigue, what Burns in his introduction calls "Holmesian moments." For example, there was the multiyear search for T. S. Eliot's manuscript of The Waste Land, the coveted version marked with Pound's influential edits. Tipped off by Pound's estranged wife, Dorothy, Kenner and Davenport believed the secretary of the famous collector John Quinn, a woman named Jeanne Robert Foster, might have information. "J. Foster, by the way, has 'deposited' her Quinn papers in Houghton, so that to find out what 'the Eliot MS' might be, without letting [librarian William Jackson] know that I was snooping, I had to send a spy." Though they never discover the elusive manuscript, the passion with which they pursue it is worthy of a crime novel.
More terrestrial difficulties are stitched through their intellectual banter like black thread: the death of Kenner's first wife, Mary; the death of Davenport's father; professional anxieties and health concerns; flaccid book sales. As is often the case with friendships, there is no final break-up. Instead, there is a slow fraying of ties. "We, you and I, are beginning to drift out of synchronicity," Davenport wrote to Kenner in 1977. While neither ever offers a reason for this cooling, Burns suggests that it may have been due to Kenner's disapproval of Davenport's sexual relationships with men. We watch their correspondence dwindle to a handful of missives in the nineties, mainly holiday greetings written by Kenner's second wife, Mary-Anne. There is only one letter in 2000, and an additional short letter—it was to be the last—in 2002, roughly a year before Kenner's death. "We've been separated too long," Kenner writes. And then: "Are you still nontech, or have you by any chance an email address by now?"
A Kenner and Davenport email thread? After one thousand letters, it is difficult to imagine. Still, perhaps the form is finally inconsequential, given the caliber of the minds. Like any intellectual exchange, the letters of gifted writers become an atlas of their intricate subjectivity. "Thought is a labyrinth," Davenport wrote to Kenner in 1963, a phrase he was much struck by. Eight years later, Kenner would end The Pound Era with those very same words. It was the greatest compliment he could have bestowed upon his friend: that his wisdom should leap from the surface of these treasured letters and their thoughts be permanently conjoined.

This article contains spoilers through the final episode of the sixth season of Game of Thrones. For more theories and speculation, head to our Game of Thrones page.
The wait for Game of Thrones Season 7 will be a long one. While the series typically returns in the April of every year, beginning each spring with the smell of freshly decapitated corpses, the show's abbreviated seventh season will not kick off until summer 2017 at the earliest, giving us extra time to speculate wildly about what revelations the final batches of episodes will hold.
Ever since the death of Ramsay Bolton at the hands of his hungry, hungry hounds, there's been discussion about the the villain vacuum on Game of Thrones. With Ramsay, Joffrey, and the High Sparrow all gone, who will torment us every Sunday night? One idea is that the Night King, who typically drops by once a season to commit some horrible act of violence, will step up to fill the void. But according to Benioff and Weiss, the frosty undead leader is not the villain you're looking for.
"We don't think of the Night King as a villain as much as Death," the pair write in the interview. "He is not someone who's like Joffrey or Ramsay. He's not really human anymore. Evil comes when you have a choice between that and good, and you choose the wrong way. The Night King doesn't have a choice; he was created in that way, and that's what he is. In some ways, he's just Death, coming for everyone in the story, and for all of us."
What does that mean going forward? It's hard to say, especially because "he's just Death" is a metaphoric way writers often talk about textbook "villains" like the Joker or Anton Chigurh. In the interview the pair say it's appropriate that the Night King doesn't speak, so don't expect a series of scenery-chewing monologues to come from his blue, icy mouth anytime soon. He probably won't join forces with Daenerys and ride a dragon around.
Instead, it seems more likely that the show's newer antagonists, like the Joshua Jackson-looking bad dude Euron Greyjoy, will take on a larger role in Season 7. And, as the map becomes smaller, it's likely some of our heroes could become a bit more villainous -- maybe it's time for Sansa to break bad? Of course, there's the newly crowned Queen Cersei to contend with, and judging from the fireworks display she put on in last season's finale, she's probably got a few more tricks up her long black sleeves.
Speaking of Cersei, while Benioff and Weiss kept tight lips when it comes to spoilers throughout the interview, they did speculate about the Queen's incoming reign. After noting that she bears some responsibility for the death of her son -- we still miss you Tommen, you ineffective little boy-king -- the creators explained that the next season will likely take us deep inside Cersei's psyche. Scary, right?
"That's what so much of next season is going to be about," they write. "Finding out what Cersei's mindset is, and who is she? Cersei has certainly done a lot of horrible things in her life and she could be a very cruel person, but the one thing that was redemptive about her was she genuinely loved her children. Now they're all gone, and I think that is very interesting for us. Who is she, without her children? The answer is something you'll find out about next season."
Even though Benioff and Weiss don't consider the Night King to be the show's primary villain, the plot's momentum suggests he'll eventually have to get past that damn Wall and unleash icy hell. After all, winter is coming, as the saying goes. Fans have long speculated that an object mentioned in the books, the Horn of Joramun, will ultimately be used to bring down The Wall, but by now show-watchers know that Benioff and Weiss have been known to zig when George R.R. Martin zags.
"We don't want to give away too much," the pair writes. "There are the books, and the show, and it would be a disservice to both if we went into too much detail of, we're going to use this or that. We're not using that. What's laid out in this season is, very clearly, The Wall isn't just a physical structure that is keeping the army of the dead out. If it were, and if the wildlings managed to make it over, at least in theory someone like the Night King has so much more in the way of both power and troops who'll do literally anything he says."
Let's take a closer look at the quote: when Benioff and Weiss say, "We're not using that," they may not be talking specifically about the Horn of Joramun. Instead, it seems like they were speaking more generally about their collaborative process with George R.R. Martin, particularly which elements they choose to use and which they don't. So, the Horn of Joramun is still in play as a possible way for The Wall to fall -- or the pair of writers could totally swerve from what's expected, Lady Stoneheart-style, and surprise us with something totally different.
There's only one way to find out: get a time machine that takes us to summer 2017 when the show returns. Or, just keep theorizing.

Court Quashes Youth Climate Change Case Against Government
Source: By John Schwartz, New York Times • Posted: Tuesday, January 21, 2020

A federal appeals court has thrown out the landmark climate change lawsuit brought on behalf of young people against the federal government.
While the young plaintiffs "have made a compelling case that action is needed," wrote Judge Andrew D. Hurwitz in a 32-page opinion, climate change is not an issue for the courts. "Reluctantly, we conclude that such relief is beyond our constitutional power. Rather, the plaintiffs' impressive case for redress must be presented to the political branches of government."
The two members in the majority of the three-judge panel thus agreed with the Trump administration that the issues brought up in the case, Juliana v. United States did not belong before the courts.
The appeals court decision reverses an earlier ruling by a district court judge, Ann Aiken, that would have let the case go forward. Instead, the appeals court gave instructions to the lower court to dismiss the case.
In a lengthy and impassioned dissent, Judge Josephine L. Staton wrote that "the government accepts as fact that the United States has reached a tipping point crying out for a concerted response — yet presses ahead toward calamity. It is as if an asteroid were barreling toward Earth and the government decided to shut down our only defenses."
The third judge on the panel was Mary H. Murguia. All three were appointed to their current positions by President Barack Obama.
In a statement, Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Bossert Clark of the Justice Department's environment and natural resources division said the government was "pleased with the outcome." Citing the portion of the Constitution that defines the role of the federal courts, he said, "this suit fell squarely outside the parameters of Article 3."

In an interview, the lead lawyer for the plaintiffs, Julia Olson, said she would appeal the ruling. The next step sends the case to the full Ninth Circuit for reconsideration and what is known as an en banc hearing. The case, she said, is "far from over."
Ms. Olson, an environmental lawyer with the group Our Children's Trust, originally filed the federal suit in 2015against the Obama administration, demanding both that the government drop policies that encouraged fossil fuel use and take faster action to curb climate change from a president already seen as friendly to environmental interests.
Working under a legal principle known as the public trust doctrine, which can be used to compel the government to preserve natural resources for public use, the initial complaint stated that government officials had "willfully ignored" the dangers of burning fossil fuels.
The five years since the case was first filed have been the five hottest years in the age of accurate records.
The 21 young plaintiffs, now between the ages of 12 and 23, claim that the government's actions, and inaction, in the face of global warming violate their "fundamental constitutional rights to freedom from deprivation of life, liberty, and property." Their personal stories include damage from rising sea levels and wildfire smoke, but they argued that they will be dealing with even more disastrous effects of climate change within their lifetimes.
The youngest of the plaintiffs, Levi Draheim, will be just 33 in 2040, the year by which a United Nations scientific panel now expects some of the biggest crises to unfold.
During the hearing in June that led to the new opinion, Judge Hurwitz pressed Ms. Olson with a question that signaled his skepticism about the courts taking the leading role in combating as big a problem as climate change: "You're asking us to do a lot of new stuff, aren't you?"
Ann Carlson, an expert in climate change law at the University of California Los Angeles School of Law, said what surprised her and many other experts was how far the lawsuit had proceeded.
"I've always thought this case was creative and interesting but a long shot," she said, "and after listening to the oral argument I thought that the court would find some way to dismiss the case that reflected its concerns about just how big the remedy was that the plaintiff were seeking in the case" — that is, she said, to "get the United States to stop emitting carbon into the atmosphere."
She noted that even the majority opinion was very sympathetic to the arguments of the young people and accepted the need for action on climate change. "There really is a giant dilemma here about the lack of political will to address the problem, the lack of judicial comfort in stepping in to solve the problem," she said.
The urgency of the climate crisis and the limitations of the law made the Juliana case a difficult one, said David M. Uhlmann, a law professor at the University of Michigan and former head of the environmental crimes section of the Justice Department. "If ever there were a case where your heart says yes but your mind says no," he said, "Juliana unfortunately is that case."
Ms. Olson, the lawyer for the young people, said the case did not require the kind of sweeping remedy the court described in the decision: "It doesn't have to be the whole shebang."
For her plaintiffs, she said, "the idea that their only recourse is to go to the very branches of government that are violating their rights when half of them can't even vote is a preposterous notion."
Michael B. Gerrard, the director of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at Columbia University, called the decision "a disappointment but not a surprise." He said that "Many U.S. judges have vigorously enforced the environmental laws written by Congress but won't go beyond that."
"They want to leave the key decisions to the ballot box," he said. "So for now, all three branches of the federal government are sitting on their hands as the planet burns."
