June 6, 2011: The U.S. Army recently received its first two production model THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) anti-missile missiles. Last year, the army conducted another successful test firing of THAAD, demonstrating the system's ability to hit targets closer to the ground, and to share data with Patriot anti-missile systems. This was the seventh (out of seven) successful test since 2005. There have been 20 tests since 1995, 14 of them successful. THAAD entered service in 2008, with pre-production missiles for use in further testing.
Two years ago, the army formed its second THAAD anti-ballistic missile (ABM) battery. The army will form two more THAAD batteries over the next year. Five years ago, there was a successful test of THAAD (a SCUD type target was destroyed in flight) using a crew of soldiers, and not manufacturer technicians, to operate the system.
Each THAAD battery has 24 missiles, three launchers and a fire control communications system. This includes an X-Band radar. The gear for each battery costs $310 million. The six meter (18 foot) long THAAD missiles weigh 837 kg (1,400 pounds). This is about the same size as the Patriot anti-aircraft missile, but twice the weight of the anti-missile version of the Patriot.
The range of THAAD is 200 kilometers, max altitude is 150 kilometers, and it is intended for short (like SCUD) or medium range (up to 2,000 kilometer) range ballistic missiles. THAAD has been in development for two decades. Ultimately, the army would like to buy at least 18 launchers, 1,400 missiles, and 18 radars. THAAD is a step up from the Patriot PAC-3 anti-missile (which is an anti-aircraft missile adapted to take out incoming missiles). The PAC-3 works, but it has limited (20 kilometers) range.
The navy has also modified its Standard anti-aircraft missile system to operate like the PAC-3. This system, the RIM-161A, also known as the Standard Missile 3 (or SM-3), has a longer range than THAAD (over 500 kilometers) and max altitude of 160 kilometers. The Standard 3 is based on the failed anti-missile version of the Standard 2, and costs over three million dollars each. The Standard 3 has four stages. The first two stages boost the interceptor out of the atmosphere. The third stage fires twice to boost the interceptor farther beyond the earth's atmosphere. Prior to each motor firing it takes a GPS reading to correct course for approaching the target. The fourth stage is the 20 pound LEAP kill vehicle, which uses infrared sensors to close on the target and ram it.
Thus the U.S. has three anti-missile systems, although one of them currently only operates from warships (cruisers and destroyers that have been equipped with the special software that enables the AEGIS radar system to detect and track incoming ballistic missiles.) AEGIS can also be operated from land bases, and the manufacturer is offering such a system to export customers.

"A Pogrom Wave in Germany"
Naye prese, Paris, November 11, 1938
View this Newspaper Article
tags: group violence Kristallnacht pogroms
The state-orchestrated violence against Jews in Germany in early November 1938, better known as Kristallnacht, shocked Jewish communities around the world. It had the most profound impact, however, on German Jews. Apart from the most immediate consequences—more than a hundred Jews murdered, thousands arrested and sent to concentration camps, synagogues and Jewish property damaged and destroyed—the pogrom also posed larger questions about the viability of Jewish life in Nazi Germany.1 In retrospect, Kristallnacht is clearly a landmark event in the history of the Holocaust. Even to Jews at the time, it appeared as a frightening and unprecedented development, despite the casual anti-Jewish violence that had already been normalized in Germany since 1933.
The pogrom was widely reported in Jewish press around the world. Jewish newspapers across the political spectrum dedicated much coverage to this murderous rampage with unknowable implications. The Naye prese, the newspaper featured here, was a communist Yiddish-language daily published in Paris.2 The readers of the newspaper were mostly Yiddish-speaking immigrants and political exiles from Central and Eastern Europe. The newspaper's editorial policy was coordinated with the mainstream Communist Party of France; several of the editors of the Naye prese were card-carrying members. The Naye prese's main Yiddish-language competitor was the Parizer haynt, a Zionist-leaning subsidiary of the Haynt, the famous Yiddish newspaper based in Warsaw.
Barely more than a day after the broken glass was beginning to be cleared off the streets across Germany, the Naye prese informed its readership about the state pogrom. Apart from the leading article, "A Pogrom Wave in Germany," other reports on the cover page of the paper spoke of Nazi barbarity, of torched Berlin synagogues, and the khurbn3 in cities across Hitler's Germany, but also about the unease of non-Jewish Germans at the sight of destruction.
For more on Kristallnacht, see Alan Steinweis, Kristallnacht 1938 (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2009). For mass arrests of Jews, see Kim Wünschmann, Before Auschwitz: Jewish Prisoners in the Prewar Concentration Camps (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2015), 196-210.
Naye prese had been established as a daily in 1934, and was a successor to a string of far-left Jewish weeklies and dailies that were plagued by ideological differences, censorship, and small readerships. According to Bernard Wasserstein, at the high point around the 1936 election of the leftist National Front government in France under Léon Blum, the readership of the Naye prese might have reached 8,000, but then began to decline.Bernard Wasserstein, On the Eve: The Jews of Europe Before the Second World War (New York: Simon and Schuster, 2012), 258-9.
Meaning "destruction" in Yiddish, khurbn also came to be the Yiddish term for the Holocaust.
German, "Jew, die!" The verb "verrecken" is usually used for animals; a more literal translation would be "Jew, croak!"
Ernst vom Rath (1909–1938) was a German diplomat stationed in Paris who was assassinated by Herschel Grynszpan on November 7, 1938. Grynszpan was a Jewish refugee from Germany, whose parents, originally immigrants from Poland, had been expelled from the Reich in October 1938, along with other Jews of Polish citizenship.
One of Berlin's main shopping avenues, in the central commercial district. Comparable to Fifth Avenue in New York or Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles.
One of the central and more majestic avenues of Berlin, running east from the Brandenburg Gate.
Kantstrasse is a commercial and residential avenue running parallel to Kurfürstendamm. Kantstrasse was also home to Jewish institutional and organizational life in Berlin and Germany as a whole and continued to serve as such following the Nazi takeover in 1933. The irony invoked refers to the fact that the street is named after Immanuel Kant (1724-1804), the most important philosopher of the German Enlightenment.

A pogrom wave in Germany
24 hours of destruction and arson
By the light of burning synagogues, and to shouts of "Jude verrecke!,"1 Jewish businesses are destroyed
Horrible, barbaric scenes throughout the country
Streicher creates a committee for persecution of Jews
The German population displays dissatisfaction with the acts of vandalism
Berlin, November 10 — The death of vom Rath2 has been exploited by the Nazi press to intensify the agitation against Jews and to call for revenge. The [writing] style has been so red-hot and wild that it had an effect upon many Nazis and the results quickly became evident.
A night of pogroms
Pogroms took place against Jews across the entire Reich last night. Synagogues that had not yet been demolished were burned. Jewish businesses were destroyed in the most savage of fashions.
The German press, which had not yet written about these events in the morning, came out with reports in the afternoon regarding "public outrage." Here is how the latter was depicted by a French correspondent of "Ce soir":
"Yesterday night the people of Berlin peacefully went home and went to sleep. This morning they stand in mass numbers, astounded and silent, before the synagogues that have been burned and the shop windows that have been knocked out while they were sleeping.
"Today the columns of avengers first set out at daybreak. I walked through Kurfürstendamm,3 Unter den Linden,4 the trade districts of Westend. Everywhere the same picture: cafes, restaurants, luxury stores, grocer's shops—everything is destroyed.
"The clothing stores whose owners, I think, were American Jews, were not violated. On Kurfürstendamm, a Citroen division, whose director is German, was hacked open. All sections of the well-known 'Etom' firm were destroyed. All silk [illegible] goods disappeared.
On Kant Street (what irony!),5 the books from a Jewish antiquarian bookseller were burned on the sidewalk.
On a little side street I saw an old woman in tears before a grocery shop. She was gathering scattered milk cans from amongst the heaps of glass."
The description in "Ton"
Here is how the "Ton" correspondent describes the image of "Berlin this morning":
"One gets the impression of a systematic operation that was conducted simultaneously throughout the whole city. You don't see one single Jewish business that has remained untouched anywhere you walk—even those that are several stories high.
"The 'spectacle' extends through Leipziger Strasse; Friedrichstrasse—less so. In the direction of Alexanderplatz the ruins are even greater. Jewish landlords are more numerous here.
Smoke still rises from the roofs of the residences that were burned. Several firemen hang around on the street in no hurry."
The population condemns
Curious people gather everywhere. The correspondent from "Ton" relates further: "Everyone is taken aback and even embarrassed. The fact cannot be repeated enough that the majority of Berlin residents are against this specific form of politics, many often display openly that they condemn it. For the most part, they respect the merchandise that lies behind the broken windows. Yet at a large leather goods store on Unter den Linden I saw the passersby dig through the things, and everyone took something, one person took a briefcase, another a purse."
In the afternoon—more unrest
It is reported that in the afternoon, Jewish stores on Friedrichstrasse that had remained untouched were also destroyed. There are numerous Jewish stores on this street. Everything was destroyed in a barbaric fashion. The impoverished Münzstrasse is full with broken furniture, trampled wax figures, watches broken into pieces.
The Ford company6 on Unter den Linden was also hacked to pieces.
Masses of Jews were arrested. The "German News Bureau" announces that this is to "protect their safety" [...]
The Hitler Youth marches through the streets, shouting "Jude verrecke."
"Havas"7 remarks: "One has to remember that an official note recently informed the population that the initiative for an antisemitic campaign had to be left to the authorities."
Berlin, Nov. 10 — The new measures that Goebbels announced will consist of the confiscation of all Jewish possessions that amount to over three thousand marks.
Foreign Jews will be expelled from Germany.
In Berlin a government committee will be created "in defense (!) against Jews."
Representatives of the ministries will be included in the committee. It will be led by Julius Streicher.

Global Internet 'Early Warning System' on the Way
About three weeks from now, Matrix NetSystems and a still unnamed partner will launch a global Internet 'early warning system' aimed at alerting customers to cyberattacks in plenty of time to fend off damage. Meanwhile, Jacqueline Emigh reports the new Internet management service provider has just inked a deal with netVmg, developer of a solution for routing traffic across ISP links according to specified enterprise policies.
About three weeks from now, Matrix NetSystems and a still unnamed partner will launch a global Internet "early warning system" aimed at alerting customers to cyberattacks in plenty of time to fend off damage. Meanwhile, the new Internet management service provider has just inked a deal with netVmg, developer of a solution for routing traffic across ISP links according to specified enterprise policies.
"Big companies have abandoned solutions like leased lines in favor of the Internet, which is ubiquitous and far less expensive. The Internet does a good job of connecting people, for the most part," acknowledges Tom Ohlsson, Matrix's VP of business development and marketing.
Unlike previous transport mechanisms like frame relay and ATM, though, the Internet lacks user-definable surveillance thresholds, notes Ohlsson. Matrix's emerging Internet-based management infrastructure also assists with worm invasions, equipment failures outside the firewall, and other issues that crop up when organizations treat the Internet as their enterprise network.
So far, industry analysts generally like what they see at Matrix. "Matrix has an expertise in Internet security that goes back about 12 years," maintains Frank Barbetta, an analyst at Probe Research. Originally known as MIDS, Matrix began as a consulting firm, only branching into services over the past year. With its new service offerings, however, Matrix is aiming big; target customers include the Fortune 50, federal government agencies, global ISPs, and "top five" systems integrators.
"Enterprises and ISPs do need better information about the Internet," affirms Barbetta. "The Internet is a random entity, but people are trying to rely on it for business applications. The Internet has some characteristics that are 'normal' for a network, and others that are unique unto itself. It's very prone to malicious code, for example."
Matrix will pinpoint the partner for its new "early warning system" in conjunction with a third-round funding announcement later this month. Ohlsson likes to compare the new notification system to the "DEW Line," a radar system set up by the US government during the Cold War to alert the nation to impending nuclear attacks.
Page 2: Matrix's Warning System Inspired by GEWIS
Matrix's Warning System Inspired by GEWIS
The idea for Matrix's warning system was inspired by the federal government's current initiative for a Global Early Warning Internet Service, also known by the acronym GEWIS (pronounced like "gee whiz").
Matrix's yet to be announced partner will provide threat assessment, whereas Matrix will concentrate on Internet monitoring and measurement. "[The partner] said to us, 'Hey, you've got the chocolate for our peanut butter,'" Ohlsson recalls.
For monitoring purposes, Matrix has already deployed beacons at its own network operations centers (NOCs) as well as at other hosting and carrier sites throughout the Internet. "We ping hundreds of thousands of services and construct models of what we find."
Matrix presents these findings in chart format at a Web portal. Customers can view packet loss statistics at critical Internet nodes in North America, for instance, or reachability results for various carriers and ISP gateways. Companies can also monitor remote client PCs or specific Web sites. In addition, human experts are available at Matrix to help analyze problems.
During the "Slammer worm" crisis in late January, reachability for one large ISP varied dramatically from one section of the US to another, according to Matrix's charts. Reachability stayed at 99.9 percent or better in the West and Northeast; but dipped to 99 percent in the MidWest, while plummeting to just over 90 percent in the Plains states.
In the upcoming early warning system, Matrix's beacons will act as honeypots. "Actually, the term 'decoy servers' is more politically correct. The idea is that, if somebody launches an attack, they'll leave behind their digital signatures. This will give an indication of where in the world the attack is coming from," clarifies Ohlsson.
Details are still being ironed out, but Ohlsson compares Matrix's deal with the "threat assessment" partner to an OEM agreement. "They'll use our product, and they'll pay us a royalty fee."
"The early warning system is a 'nice to have.' Matrix can do it, because its NOCs are 24/7. Matrix has also been talking about things like automatically closing down ports to prevent denial of service attacks," observes Zeus Kerravala, VP at the Yankee Group for Applications Infrastructure and E-Networks & Broadband Access Planning Services.

The Future Looks Bright for Matrix...for the Most Part
Meanwhile, Matrix is at work on a variety of other future Internet management services as well. The new deal with netVmg, just inked in February, is quite different from the joint venture for the warning system. According to Ohlsson, "At this point, the relationship with netVmg is still more like a reciprocal agency agreement. We're sharing our leads with netVmg, and they're sharing their leads with us."
More pacts are in the planning stages, too. "I'm happily surprised by what Matrix has got going for the near term with the joint-venture partnerships they're pursuing," states Dan Keldsen, an analyst at DelphiGroup. "Some very interesting potential is cooking."
Moreover, Matrix has already nailed down 16 paying customers, with 12 more now in the pipeline, according to Ohlsson. The early adopters include NASA, SAP, Verisign, and several New York financial brokers.
For the most part, Matrix's services will not come cheap. Customers will pay anywhere from $20,000 to $250,000 per year, with most falling into the $50,000 to $70,000 bracket.
A few offerings, however, are available from Matrix free of charge. These include an ISP rating service -- which provides some but not all of the results given to paying customers -- and an e-mail report on major Internet security events.
Matrix could face some obstacles ahead. "Company budgets and the will to address potential security problems -- these are still ponderables," says Yankee's Kerravala.
Analysts also cite a number of other vendors hovering around the same market space, ranging from KeyNote Systems to Quantiva. "Matrix seems to be coming at measurement from more of an operations/troubleshooting point of view -- as compared to the 'ensuring customer satisfaction' or 'quality user experience' perspective that a Keynote Systems might have," advises Delphi's Keldsen. "Is one better than the other? It depends on who the buyers/users of the information are, what they want to do with it, etc."
Keldsen is impressed, too, with Matrix's comprehensive approach to Internet security management. "There are still a lot of point solutions out there. I've been trying, anyway, to get vendors to look at rolling together disparate pieces of information."
By and large, though, analysts anticipate success for Matrix. "If anybody can do this, it's Matrix. The company's competitors are smaller than Matrix. Matrix has expended a lot of resources on building up an infrastructure -- and they're already 'there' with the necessary knowledge," states Kerravala.

I'm back from a great camping trip. I had lots of fun with family, it wasn't too hot and there was only a little rain. It was nice to be "unplugged" for a few days. But that did mean I came home to a pile of email and a long list of things to catch up on in the blog world. So after I did all that I wasted no time getting back to my stamps and creating a fun camping card based on my favorite camping activity... roasting marshmallows on the fire. Yum!
The sentiment inside reads "...is where I want to be." I used three Lawn Fawn set for this card, Cozy Christmas, Plus One & My Silly Valentine. The tents on the hills in the background were stamped with the "to: Santa" card from Cozy Christmas. Makes me want a roasted marshmallow right now. But on to other business. It's time to pick the winner for my Blog Candy Giveaway! Yay!
And the winner is.... (thanks to Random.org)... number 14... which is... Laurel!
Oh my gosh, Chari! I think this is your cutest card EVER! So darling. I mean, OH MY WORD! Love the card "tents" and the little bow on the marshmallow. Did you hand-write that sentiment or is it a stamp?
@ChristianaI had to hand write the sentiment, all my alphabet stamps would have taken up too much room.
So creative how you made those tents! And those stars are shining!
What a cute blend of stamp sets! Such a CUTE card!
This is AMAZING! Did you use ANY distress inks? If so, you must enter it into the current LS challenge! OH MY WORD! Are those hills made with the HA Envelope Pattern background stamp? That is awesome too! And LOVE you used the santa notes as tent. SO CLEVER. You NEVER cease to amaze me with your brilliance!
And I am so glad random.org picked me!!! AHH! Happy Dance over here!
This card is so clever and OH MY CUTE! :) Seriously, Chari - this is SOOOOO ADORABLE! LOVE.
This is adorable!! What a magical little scene you made. This must have taken hours to put together.
Oh this is brilliant Chari, I love the night time scene and how you made the tents. The stars really look like they're shining too. This will definitely be on both LF blogs!
Amazing card, so creative and adorable! Your work really inspires me. I always look forward to seeing another card from you :) Thanks for sharing!
ACK! I love this so much!!! It's so SO cute!!!!
Oh crap, where did my socks go? Oh right- they were blown off.
Seriously awesome card! I love how you changed the purpose of so many stamps. It's awesome. Thanks so much for sharing!
This is an absolutely adorable and clever card! Your scene building is spot on and I especially love the added touch of the hanging stars and moon. I was wondering what is the star paper you used?
You've been spotted by the Lawnscaping Patrol!

Первый из семи балкеров, заказанных у корейской судостроительной компании Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering для перевозки руды из Бразилии в Азию.

Проект
Длина судна составляет 362 метра и Ore Brasil является одним из самых длинных судов в мире. Суммарный объём семи грузовых трюмов составляет 219 980 кубических метров. Из-за своих размеров Ore Brasil имеет возможность захода всего в несколько глубоководных портов в Бразилии, Европе и Китае.

Судно приводится в движение двигателем MAN B&W 7S80ME-C8 мощностью 29 260 кВт (39 240 л. с.). Расход топлива составляет 96,7 т мазута в день, но из-за размеров Ore Brasil является одним из самых эффективных судов в мире. В 2011 году на выставке Nor-Shipping судно получило премию Clean Ship.

Эксплуатация
24 мая 2011 года Ore Brasil принял свой первый груз из 391 000 тонн железной руды в морском терминале Понта ди Мадейра недалеко от Сан-Луиса. Первоначально планировалось что судно отправится в Далянь, но в июне маршрут был изменён и Ore Brasil отправился в Таранто. В порт судно пришло 14 июля.

Q: What are React controlled components and uncontrolled components? What are controlled components and uncontrolled components in ReactJS? How do they differ from each other?

A: Controlled component is component that get the changed value from the callback function
and
uncontrolled component is component that have the one from the DOM.
For example,
When input value is changed,we can use onChange function in Controlled Component and
also we can get the value using DOM like ref.

A: They both render form elements
Uncontrolled component and Controlled component are terms used to describe React components that render HTML form elements. Every time you create a React component that renders an HTML form element, you are creating one of those two.
Uncontrolled components and Controlled components differ in the way they access the data from the form elements (<input>, <textarea>, <select>).
Uncontrolled Components
An uncontrolled component is a component that renders form elements, where the form element's data is handled by the DOM (default DOM behavior). To access the input's DOM node and extract its value you can use a ref.
Example - Uncontrolled component:
const { useRef } from 'react';

function Example () {
  const inputRef = useRef(null);
  return <input type="text" defaultValue="bar" ref={inputRef} />
}

Controlled Components
A controlled component is a component that renders form elements and controls them by keeping the form data in the component's state.
In a controlled component, the form element's data is handled by the React component (not DOM) and kept in the component's state. A controlled component basically overrides the default behavior of the HTML form elements.
We create a controlled component by connecting the form element (<input>, <textarea> or <select>) to the state by setting its attribute value and the event onChange.
Example - Controlled Component:
const { useState } from 'react';

function Controlled () {
  const [email, setEmail] = useState();

  const handleInput = (e) => setEmail(e.target.value);

  return <input type="text" value={email} onChange={handleInput} />;
}

A: Controlled component: Form data are handled by a React component.

Uncontrolled components: form data are handled by the DOM itself.

A: This relates to stateful DOM components (form elements) and the React docs explain the difference:

*

*A Controlled Component is one that takes its current value through props and notifies changes through callbacks like onChange. A parent component "controls" it by handling the callback and managing its own state and passing the new values as props to the controlled component. You could also call this a "dumb component".

*A Uncontrolled Component is one that stores its own state internally, and you query the DOM using a ref to find its current value when you need it. This is a bit more like traditional HTML.

Most native React form components support both controlled and uncontrolled usage:
// Controlled:
<input type="text" value={value} onChange={handleChange} />

// Uncontrolled:
<input type="text" defaultValue="foo" ref={inputRef} />
// Use `inputRef.current.value` to read the current value of <input>

In most (or all) cases you should use controlled components.

A: Controlled components are mainly those where any prop value of the component is either from the parent component or from the store (as in case of redux). Example:
<ControlledComp value={this.props.fromParent}/>

In case of an uncontrolled component, the component value can be taken from the state of the component depending on the event handling. Example:
<UncontrolledComp value={this.state.independentValue}/>

A: Controlled components do not hold their state.
Data they need is passed down to them from a parent component.
They interact with this data by callback functions, which are also passed from the parent to the child.

A: TLDR;

You can check that page out he explains it finely.......
Controlled Components
Without complex words, Controlled components are components rendering form elements such as <input/> whose value is controlled by react and react alone, For example copy the code below and try to change the input field within the DOM...
export default function Component() {

  return (

            <input type="text" value="somevalue" />

)
}

No matter how much you try to update the value of the input above, react won't let you. Because Reacts wants to be the one in control of the updated value using states hence the title controlled...
It's value can be updated by connecting the attributes onChange and value to a state as shown below, Try it out.
function Component() {

  const [text,setText] = React.useState("")

  return (

            <input type="text" onChange={(e)=>setText(e.target.value)} value={text} />

{text}

  )
}

Now our input can be updated and its value, used either to render something or perform instant validation....
Uncontrolled Components
Uncontrolled components are components that render form elements such as <input/> whose value can be handled by the Dom element and one major difference between controlled and uncontrolled is the value attribute definition. for uncontrolled, we have a defaultValue  instead or no value at all sometimes..
function Component() {

  return (

            <input type="email" id="message" defaultValue="example@mail.com" />

  )
}

The value of the input above can be changed and is controlled by the DOM without React...
Its advice to use the Controlled Components more in react as you can perform instant validation and enforce dynamic inputs.

A: A controlled component is a preferred way to do things in React.
It allows us to keep all component states in the React state, instead of relying on the DOM to retrieve the element's value through its internal state.
A controlled component is a component that derives its input values from the state.

A: According to docs:
In a controlled component, form data is handled by a React component.
The alternative is uncontrolled components, where form data is handled by the DOM itself.

The vines are grown on clay-limestone and brown loam soils at 280 metres elevation, with a south-west exposure. The grapes were hand- picked between September 29 and October 4.
After manual cluster and berry selection, the grapes cool-macerated for five days, then fermented for a further twenty-five days in stainless steel tanks at 24-28oC with indigenous yeasts. The wine was then aged for nineteen months in sixty-two percent new French oak.
A spectacular example of pure Cabernet Franc, ripened to (but not beyond) perfection in southern Hungary. Complex, nuanced aromas of raspberry, cassis, fresh leaves and cedar lead to a beautifully balanced palate that is full yet graceful.


This Call for Proposals seeks papers linking affect theory with theories of speculative realism, new materialisms, object-oriented ontology, or thing theory. Speculative realism has taught us to view objects and collections of objects as having an existence and potential intentionality beyond human comprehension. As we watch the plastic bottles gathering on Plastic Island or the life preservers of Lifejacket Mountain form patterns of object movement outside of the realm of human action, we ascertain a "thingness" or a vitality to object ontology and can speculate about an object reality that differs from, and is incomprehensible to, our own.
Affect theory explores attachments and emotions as forces beyond conscious knowing. Some affect theorists rethink the body as a relation within an event, as an assemblage of matter and technology, or as a virtual and material realm of non-conscious incipient tendencies and potential intensity, as Brian Massumi argues in Parables for the Virtual (2002). Others link the human with a "thing sensed" in a structural relation, where the flow of sensations encompasses the non-human or the object. These affect theorists bring emotion within the realm of the object, whether affect is conceptualized as "what sticks, or what sustains or preserves the connection between ideas, values, and objects" as Sara Ahmed argues in The Promise of Happiness (2010); or whether affect produces a psychoanalytic halo of promise around the object, as Lauren Berlant theorizes in Cruel Optimism (2011); or whether affect gives a "vibrancy" to the materiality of objects, as Jane Bennett has put forward in Vibrant Matter.
But how far can we take affect theory toward the object and what are the consequences to new materialisms when we bring ideas of affect into conversation with the object? Can we discuss objects as producing or experiencing forms of affect? Can we imagine the rhythmic undulations on Plastic Island or the life preservers in their saturated solidity as expressions of affect at the level of the object? Or do ideas of "object affect" – the joy, thanksgiving, or sexual pleasure of undulating plastic bottles – reproduce the projection of human categories onto things in a way that rearticulates aspects of human subjectivity and moves us away from the object?
This call for proposals invites papers in the fields of cultural and literary theory that develop, articulate, engage with, or critique a concept of "Object Affect," or "Speculative Affect." How might we imagine affect closer to, or within, the realm of the "thing"? Under what circumstances can affect be an object condition? How might theories of affect allow us to re-articulate object ontology? What kind of insights might new materialisms provide for our understanding of concepts of affect? What risks do we take when we orient the object toward ideas of affect?
Potential contributors should email a 250-word proposal or abstract, along with a brief (150-word) biography. The deadline for submission of proposals is June 1, 2016. Papers selected for inclusion in the volume should be completed by December 1, 2016. Please send submissions by email to Charmaine Eddy (ceddy@trentu.ca).
