Strange expectations and the Winnie the Pooh problem
Motivated by the study of simultaneous cores, we give three proofs (in varying levels of generality) for the expected norm of a weight in a highest weight representation of a complex simple Lie algebra. First, we argue directly using the polynomial method and the Weyl character formula. Second, we use the combinatorics of semistandard tableaux to obtain the result in type A. Third, and most interestingly, we relate this problem to the "Winnie the Pooh problem" regarding orthogonal decompositions of Lie algebras; although this approach offers the most explanatory power, it applies only to Cartan types other than A and C. We conclude with computations of many combinatorial cumulants.

"The Hardest Part is What to Leave Behind." Trauma, Medicine, and the Common Goals of Winnie the Pooh and The Story of Dr. Dolittle Abstract.
On an initial read, neither A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh Adventures or Hugh Lofting's The Story of Dr. Dolittle come across as literature written about trauma, and yet both stories derived from authors who were at the front lines of World War I and who put their war experiences into their stories. Evoking nostalgia and drawing on simple lore, both of these works continue to touch the human psyche. Both writers reinvented the way we see trauma and pain, whilst advocating for broader access to holistic healthcare. This, in turn, has impacted our relationship with trauma texts and healthcare forever.

The Flip Side of Arcadia: a Consideration of the Influence of A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh (1926) and The House at Pooh Corner (1928)
A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh (1926) and The House at Pooh Corner (1928) published during the early decades of the twentieth century epitomize a highly influential Arcadian model of childhood in English children's literature. When recently teaching a module on children's literature which covers English children's literature from the nineteenth century to contemporary times I reflected on how much the literary depiction of childhood has both been influenced by Milne's work and how much such a model has changed over the last century. This chapter will therefore consider the shifts in such representation from the early twentieth century to the early twenty first century by considering the models of childhood depicted in Winnie the Pooh (1926) and The House at Pooh Corner (1928) by A.A. Milne and Anne Fine's Blood Family (2013) As said, Milne's The House at Pooh Corner epitomizes The Arcadian period which is set against a safe pastoral environment providing an enclosed model of childhood reflecting the ideals of Romanticism, whilst Anne Fine's contemporary Blood Family confronts the vulnerability of childhood in an urban setting. The safe world of Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin and friends completely blanks out a troublesome period of English history. The nineteen twenties were a period of depression and decline in the British economy leading to the General Strike of 1926. As an Assistant Editor and humorous writer for the political magazine Punch, Milne would have been au fait with current events. Furthermore Milne had been a serving soldier in World War One even though his personal view was that of a pacifist. There are no indications in the Hundred Acre Wood of any such turmoil. The stories also end when Christopher Robin is to go to school and thus leaves this gentle protected haven to begin his journey to adulthood. In contrast Anne Fine's novel follows the inner life and experiences of Edward, a severely abused child through to adulthood. Whereas Christopher Robin's community is close, friendly and supportive, an extended family, Edward is subject to the bureaucracy and uncertainty of the public child care services. This chapter will therefore consider the shifts in the gaps between children's and youths' lived experience and the implications of the literary representation of childhood in the UK, raising questions about the literary models of childhood, the influence of Milne's work and what I have termed the flip side of Arcadia.

The Iceberg Theory: A Critical Reading of A.A Milne's Tale Winnie The Pooh (1926)
The paper tackles Earnest Hemingway's theory "The Iceberg Theory" with an emphasis on the omission technique, through which the tip of the Iceberg is seen; omitting what is underneath the surface, the undetected mass. The study examines the possible influence of Edgar Allan Poe, who is known to be conscious of the "Theory of Omission" before Hemingway. Sigmund Freud's psychological perspective, as well, for he studied the different levels of the unconscious entity of his patients. The research concludes with an analysis of the life of A.A Milne and his tale "Winnie the Pooh" its characters' true nature, and a possibility of each one of them having underlying purposes unintentionally set by the author to represent different psychological disorders.

The Untruth Friendship and Starvation in Milne's Winnie the Pooh
This research aims to explore (1) the untruth friendship of Winnie the Pooh and (2) its advice for solving starvation of human being in Milne's Winnie the Pooh. The research is a descriptive qualitative method with the support of semiotic approach. It uses smoke fire concept in Pierce's Index to look after Aristotle's 8 characteristics of friendship. Those are explored through Winnie the Pooh novel as a primary data and Nicomachean Ethics, book of sociology, and dictionaries as a secondary data. The research discover the untruth is over 4 acts of characters. It keeps some friendship characteristics within. Therefore, those 4 acts directs a man to get a help of a friend.
