Former Brentford favourite grateful for Bees' help towards Grenfell victims
The Bees' friendly with Southampton saw the profits from the game go to the disaster fund, while the club invited the emergency services down to the game as well
Former Brentford striker Jo Kuffour was back at Griffin Park on Saturday as he looked to help the victims of the Grenfell Tower disaster.
The Bees' friendly with Southampton saw the profits from the game go to the disaster fund, while the club invited the emergency services down to the game as well.
Kuffour, who played for the Bees in the 2006/07 season, volunteered after the disaster and got in touch with the club to see if they could accommodate some of the victims which, naturally, Brentford were happy to do.
He told the club's official website: "It was through a friend of mine who went to the nursery at Grenfell.
"When the disaster happened, I took myself down there to help out with the donations and food as I felt I should do something.
Jo Kuffour
"She contacted me again and asked me if I knew any football teams they could take their kids or families to watch as 90 per cent of them are in hotels with no belongings and no money.
"I called up Brentford through people I still knew here. They were having a game against Southampton geared towards Grenfell and I said I was keen to bring the families over.
"I just want to give massive thanks to Brentford, Nicole in the office. The kids have loved it. With Grenfell nearly six weeks ago, they've been in their hotel most of the time. It's been nice for them to get out."
Kuffour, who started his career at Arsenal and had spells at Torquay, Bournemouth, Bristol Rovers, Gillingham, Wycombe and Sutton, has been keen to focus on helping young people in his local area.
"Even the survivors here today, they've lost family members, friends, teachers. I try not to ask them any questions about it as this day is to take their minds off it and help them get back to normality," he added.
"I would like to get involved more in helping the kids where I am from as well. I want to get involved in something that gets the children out and into the sport and gives children drive."
Kuffour scored 12 goals in 39 League One games and was a rare bright spot in the 2006/07 season as Brentford finished bottom of the table to drop into League Two.
He explained: "I had some good and bad memories. I love the club; they brought me back to London from Torquay many years ago.
"I scored many goals, got player of the season but we went down so there was mixed emotions.
"It was difficult. We had a good team but a few problems off the field, a new manager and new system didn't help. I thought I did well personally. I have fond memories of the place.
"I love the fans here. They're even better now it seems. They're cheering on the team."


Radio 1 - Pete Tong "Red Red Hot, everyone is talking about it" Underground Audio are proud to present brand new remixes of Cristoph's highly acclaimed 'Shelter' track. 'Shelter' is set to be one of Cristoph's most successful acclaimed releases, vinyl copies are currently in production and will be circulating toward the end 2014. Support on the single reads like a who's who in House Music, featuring in leading charts from the likes of Jay Lumen, Dale Howard, Mihalis Safras, Sante, Him_Self_Her & Sidney Charles. Huxley "Shelter is dope"
will be playing all of these"
Him_Self_Her "Shelter for us thanks...will def play out and support!"
Rebel "Feeling this a lot. Good stuff!"
DeMarzo "Always excited to hear what Cristoph is bringing. Cheers!!" In his early years, Cristoph was influenced by the sounds of his fathers Motown vinyl, paired with his older brothers Chicago and Detroit house cassettes, not a bad combination even if we do say so ourselves. This nurtured a passionate love for music from an early age, with him citing Masters at Work and 'MK' as early influences. From North to South and everywhere in between, Cristoph has been causing a storm on the dance music scene. His effervescent, broad ranging style encompasses heavy basslines, uplifting melodies and carefully chosen vocals, spanning the deep house to techno spectrum. Having had two No 1's on Traxsource main chart with "On The Inside" with Noir music, it has been a busy year for Cristoph with bookings in Ibiza and across Europe. Remixes on this hot package courtesy of Sante, Josh Butler and Snilloc with early support from the likes of Hot Since 82 and Richie Hawtin. Snilloc takes things a slightly funkier vibe with a grooving baseline, clever staccato synth stabs and a big brass horn making this a dance floor must have. Next up is Josh Butler with a hypnotic heads down groove. Berlin star Sante emerges with quality a deep, dark mix. Showcasing his excellent production skills and a clever percussive groove. Last but certainly not least ViVa Music's new boys System2 come up with an underground floor shaker to round off this wicked package.

> Thetechnokittens The EP is packed with a selection of dark house anthems; opening track 'Shelter' kicks things off with a driving bass line and some energizing builds. The gritty piano chords of 'Purvy' are what makes this track stand out as our top pick from the EP - it continues the dark house vibe with equal amounts of passion and groove. 'Tell Me' is an atmospheric track that will immerse you and carry you into the night of whatever dance floor it possesses. And closing things off with its funky bass line is 'Move On', a track that builds with a sporadic synth melody and catchy percussion. A top notch EP that marks Cristoph as an up and coming talent to certainly keep an eye out for.

About the WRC
Resources for Energy Savings
Vermont already has a proven track record of saving energy: statewide, Vermont met 2% of its electricity demand in 2009 through energy efficiency, rather than new energy production. Continuing to improve efficiency in buildings can make it easier to keep homes, municipal buildings, and business/commercial spaces affordable and usable well into the future. Below are resources that can help save even more energy and money.
Resources for building improvements
Only 9% of households nationwide use fuel oil for home heating, but the number in Vermont is more than six times that: 59% (source: US Energy Information Administration). In addition, Vermont has many older homes, sometimes with poor or incomplete insulation and air sealing. These factors, along with the rising cost of oil, mean that many homeowners are interested in finding ways to button up their homes to save energy and money.
Incentives, rebates, and financing opportunities: In the short term, the up-front cost of weatherizing your building or replacing more appliances may seem even more daunting than $4.00/gallon heating oil. Fortunately, there are incentives and rebates available to lower the cost and reduce the payback period on your investment.
Efficiency Vermont (www.efficiencyvermont.com) has rebates for weatherization projects, appliances, and more.
The Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (www.dsireusa.org) summarizes state and federal incentives available.
Do it yourself weatherization: (in progress)
Energy audits: An audit can help you target the areas that need the most attention and, just as importantly, give you a sense of what will yield the best return on your investment. (Some rebate programs also require that you have one to qualify.) A walk through audit can identify basic opportunities for improvement (weatherstripping, compact fluorescent light bulbs, etc.). A more detailed audit will evaluate your building as a system with a blower door test and thermal imaging (infrared photography).
Energy retrofits: Retrofits, which are generally based on an energy audits, may lead to basement, attic, and wall insulation, and should always include air sealing, which regulates air and moisture leakage. Materials commonly used for new insulation projects may include soy or petroleum based foam sprays, loose or dense-packed cellulose, foam board (pink/blue board). Urea-formaldehyde foams and vermiculite are generally no longer in use. Fiberglass batts or chopped fiberglass remain available but it should be noted that these do not stop air from moving in and out of a building. A retrofit can be done by a contractor, who may be able to help you obtain incentives, or using your own experience.
Efficiency Vermont has several good resources when it comes to energy retrofits. The Efficiency Vermont website has information on what to look for in an audit (click here) as well as how to proceed with a weatherization retrofit (click here). The website also has a search engine for finding an auditor certified by the Building Performance Institute, and information on Efficiency Vermont Rebates. Finally, for municipal buildings in particular, the following resource has been developed for getting started with a weatherization project: Guide to Improving Energy Efficiency in Vermont Municipal Buildings (link to PDF).
SEVCA (Southeastern Vermont Community Action) offers audits and retrofits at no cost to residents who meet the income guidelines; higher income households can get the same service at a reasonable rate from the Best Energy Saving Technologies (BEST) fee-for-service program (www.sevca.org/weatherization/best-energy-savings-technologies).
Resources for towns
Towns can use the information above to improve their schools, fire stations, town halls and offices, and other town buildings. In addition, certain buildings may qualify for a rebate of up to $7,500 through Efficiency Vermont's Building Performance Program (click here).
For towns interested in pursuing savings more broadly, there are programs (many of them free) that can help benchmark energy use in order to target savings.
Weatherizing historic buildings can present challenges but helps the buildings continue to be used. The Vermont Division for Historic Preservation has a brief that discusses building science in general, and historic buildings more specifically (click here).
Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy, and Historic Preservation is a guide for approaching weatherization in historic buildings (click here).
Small Town Carbon Calculator - this calculator offers a way to measure energy used by a town.
Community Energy Challenge – The Community Energy Challenge (CEC) is a program of EPA Region 1's Energy and Climate unit. This is a free, voluntary, non-binding program where EPA works with municipalities on improving energy efficiency in their town. Towns set their own goals and timelines. Periodically, EPA has interns available who can help the town benchmark its energy use, at no cost.

Crime Stoppers USA member programs reach 100 million dollars in tips paid out.
Bartlesville, Oklahoma – On February 5, 2014 Crime Stoppers USA member programs reached a milestone. Member programs have paid out over 100 million dollars in tips to anonymous informants.
Crime Stoppers USA is the national Crime Stoppers organization that spans the United States to create a network of local programs that work together to prevent and solve crimes in communities and schools across the nation. Local Crime Stoppers programs are non-profit organizations led by citizens against crime. Some Crime Stoppers programs offer cash rewards of up to $1000 to persons providing anonymous information that leads to the felony arrest of criminals and fugitives. Information is received through anonymous Crime Stoppers tips that are received through a secure tips line or through a secure web connection manned by a professional program coordinator. Each caller is assigned a code number for the purpose of ensuring anonymity.
Crime Stoppers began in Albuquerque, NM in 1976. Rewards are paid by Crime Stopper USA member programs in communities across the United States and its Territories. Crime Stoppers programs can take tips from the public by telephone, websites, text message and smartphone application. Also, tips can be turned in on the national website, www.crimestoppersusa.com.
The Kansas Crime Stoppers Midwest Conference is scheduled to be held this year in Hutchinson, Kansas from September 29 to October 1, 2013.
The conference is scheduled to start at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday the 29th and close at 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 1st. It is being held at the Ramada Inn and room rates are secured at $75.00 per night plus tax; this rate will be guaranteed until September 15th after that there is not a guarantee on price or availability of rooms. The conference price this year is $100.00 (if paid by 9/23 after that date the rate increases to $125.00) for the entire conference including the opening mixer on Sunday evening, lunch on Monday, and presidents reception on Monday evening. If you cannot make it to the entire conference but would like to attend the training sessions on Monday there is a one day fee of $60.00.
As usual, we have a scholastic day planned for Tuesday to be held at a separate location in Hutchinson. You are encouraged to arrange for your student boards to attend the one day scholastic conference and learn what other schools are doing. The scholastic conference is free for students and adults to attend (includes lunch and snacks).
Online registration is available at www.kansascrimestoppers.com.


Endovascular therapy is currently considered the primary treatment modality for many patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Although the introduction of novel nitinol stents decreased restenosis rates compared to plain balloon angioplasty, restenosis still remains a significant problem in the peripheral arteries. In- stent restenosis, which occurs in up to 30% of the patients subsequent to bare nitinol stent placement, was reported to be associated with stent fractures and arterial wall damage. Stent failures are clearly related with the bending, torsion, and axial motion forces exerted on the femoropopliteal segment during hip and knee flexion.
To understand the causes of restenosis and improve stent designs, an accurate characterization of this mechanical environment is necessary. Therefore, we quantified the in vivo deformations of the popliteal artery during leg flexion in subjects with clinically relevant peripheral artery disease. Rotational angiography has been used to acquired the three-dimensional arterial anatomy with the leg straight and with a flexion of 70°/20° in the knee/hip joints. Results showed that the popliteal artery of patients with symptomatic PAD is exposed to significant deformations during flexion of the knee joint. The severity of calcification directly affects arterial curvature, but not axial strain or twisting angles. These clinical observations are complemented with finite element simulations to evaluate stenting procedures.

National Savings, Economic Welfare, and the Structure of Taxation
Alan J. Auerbach, Laurence J. Kotlikoff
NBER Working Paper No. 729 (Also Reprint No. r0424)
Issued in August 1981
NBER Program(s):Public Economics Program
This paper develops a perfect foresight general equilibrium simulation model of life cycle savings that may be used to investigate the potential impact of a wide range of government policies on national savings and economic welfare. The model can provide quantitative answers to a number of long-standing questions concerning the government's influence on capital formation. These include the degree of crowding out of private investment by debt financed increases in government expenditure, the differential effect on consumption of temporary versus more permanent tax cuts, the announcement effects of future changes in tax and expenditure policy, and the response to structural changes in the tax system, including both the choice of the tax base and the degree of progressivity. The model tracks the values of all economic variables along the transition path from the initial steady state growth path to the new steady state growth path. Hence, it can be used to compute the exact welfare gains or losses for each age cohort associated with tax reform proposals.

Denver RTD breaks ground on Southeast Light Rail Extension project
(Left to right: Tony Louie, FTA, RTD Director, Gary Lasater, Linda Gehrke, FTA, Roger Partridge, Douglas County Commissioner, Keith Simon, Coventry Development, Dave Genova, RTD General Manager, Roger Wilson, VP of Operations, Balfour Beatty Infrastructure Inc., and Andy Mutz, Project Manager, RTD.)
Federal, state and local officials joined with Denver's Regional Transportation District (RTD) to officially break ground on RTD's Southeast Rail Extension project, which adds 2.3-miles to the existing 19-mile Southeast Rail Line that parallels I-25. The light rail line will be extended from Lincoln Avenue to RidgeGate Parkway in Douglas County.
The $233.1 million construction project is estimated to create more than 300 jobs through 2019. The project will also add three bridges and three new stations. Three bridges will carry light rail trains across the 620-foot-long Lincoln Avenue Bridge; a 1,397-foot-long bridge over I-25; and the 506-foot-long bridge over RidgeGate Parkway.
The three new stations will be located at Sky Ridge Avenue (near the Sky Ridge Medical Center); the future Lone Tree City Center; and an end-of-line station at RidgeGate Parkway with 1,300 parking spaces. All stations will be within walking distance of more than 500 acres of new mixed-used, commercial and residential development.
The $233.1 million construction budget includes a $92 million capital investment grant to RTD from the Federal Transit Administration. The federal funds allowed RTD to give Balfour Beatty Infrastructure Inc., the notice to proceed with construction. Balfour Beatty is the construction contractor selected by RTD to build out the extension transit project. The firm has also been involved in RTD's Eagle P3 commuter rail project and the North Metro commuter rail line.
RTD's investment in the Southeast Rail Extension project is $71 million with remaining costs covered by $7.5 million in federal funds from the Denver Regional Council of Governments and an unprecedented $25 million in cash and an estimated $3 million in land and right-of-way permits from the city of Lone Tree, Douglas County, Coventry Development Corporation and the Southeast Public Improvement District.
RTD GM/CEO Dave Genova explained that when the project is completed in 2019, residents will have the option to travel from the RideGate Station on the E Line to Union Station, the F Line to 18th•California, and the new R Line through Aurora to Peoria Station. At the new Peoria Station riders will be able to connect to the University of Colorado A Line commuter train to Denver International Airport or to Union Station in downtown Denver.

I was surprised I didn't love it.
until one day I returned to what I really like.
and I gave in to it.
This is who I am and what I love.
I ordered the shams and the bed skirt on Ebay.
the blue and white looks beautiful.
its still serene but much more elegant now..
I love what you have done with it. It is beautiful and dreamy! Can't wait to see the 2nd phase!
It's very crisp and clean - very calming. And a bonus that you love it as well!!
I like it...a lot. I just can't seem to come to grips with my room. I am changing out the comforter every 3 months and longing for the one I had 10 years ago that I can't seem to find in the stacks of comforters from the past. Just can't seem to get it right, visually. As far as comfort, they're all good!
I love the blue and white...great job Laura..
Beautiful blues and white:) I love it! Have a blessed day my friend, HUGS!
Sometimes the room wants what the room wants (doncha just hate bossy rooms?)and sometimes some people (me) just can't live in all white. Some people (me) need a little color and a whole lotta sparkle.
Trust me when I say this...both stages are gorgeous. You just have to pick the one you can sing on.
Oh Laura, that blue and white is just so crisp and brilliant looking! I love it! I'm so happy for you, it has to be gratifying to walk in there and go...ahhh, this is it! Way to go gf!
I love how your adding blue and white. That RL fabric is beautiful!
You can't go wrong with blue and white!

This sub-series consists of minutes, reports, correspondence, burial ledgers, monument and burial applications, agreements, and other records relating to the various functions performed by cemeteries operated by the City of Edmonton.
Most early cemeteries in Edmonton were private or created by religious organizations. It was not until 1914 that the City established Beechmount Cemetery as the first municipal graveyard. At this time there were three other private cemeteries operating within Edmonton's city limits, including Edmonton Cemetery, Mount Pleasant Cemetery, and Little Mountain Cemetery.
The Edmonton Cemetery Company was formed in 1886 and received a charter in the same year. It was a limited stock company with no dividends issued to stockholders. The Board of Directors consisted of many of the city's prominent men including Matt McCauley, Alex Taylor, George D. K. Kinnaird. The company acquired land from the Hudson's Bay reserve and established the grave yard south of 107th Avenue between 117th and 119th Streets. Later acquisitions expanded the grounds west and northward. In 1922 a large expansion to the west included a large reserve for a military field of honor around a Cross of Sacrifice, similar to those found in Europe, erected by the Veterans War Graves Commission. In 1932 a neo-classical Mausoleum was built on the north side of 107th Avenue. By the 1960s issues of financial viability and the need for perpetual care prompted the company to initiate negotiations to surrender their charter to the city. The transfer occurred in 1965.
Mount Pleasant Cemetery was a private burial ground in Strathcona. The first burials were in the 1890s, with the earliest marker showing 1893. The Strathcona Cemetery Company formed in 1900 to administer the cemetery. The City of Edmonton took over operation of this cemetery in 1941.
Little Mountain Cemetery was formed in 1895 as a church graveyard. Land was donated to Little Mountain Cemetery Company in 1900 and it became a public burial ground. After decades of financial struggle, the records were transferred to the City in 1981, and the City took the cemetery over in 1985.
As time progressed the City required more land for cemeteries. In 1972 the City purchased land off St. Albert Trail north of 137 Avenue. It was officially named Sturgeon Heights Memorial Park in 1986, then renamed Northern Lights Memorial Park in 1987. The first burial there occurred in 1989. In 1985 a piece of City owned land was chosen for the site of a future cemetery. It was officially named South Haven Cemetery in 1987 and opened the following year.
The most recent cemetery to come under the City's control is Clover Bar Cemetery, which was established in 1901 behind the Clover Bar Church. Homesteader W.H. Wilkinson donated his land for the cemetery and he and nine other local residents formed a cemetery company. The City of Edmonton took over the running of this cemetery in 1995.
The Health Department was responsible for cemetery operations from 1914 until 1929, at which time responsibility was transferred to the Engineering Department. In 1947 the newly created Parks Department took control. The Parks Department evolved to become the Parks and Recreation Department in 1962, and later the Community Services Department in 1997.
The Edmonton Golf Club opened in 1907 with five holes. The City purchased the land (then known as the Golf Links) in 1912 from the Hudson's Bay Company, and began operating the course as a municipal enterprise - the first municipal golf course in Canada. The Golf Links was renamed Victoria Park and dedicated to public use in 1914. The course expanded in the 1920s from 9 holes to 18, and by 1951 the course offered 27 holes, though by 1954 it had reverted to 18 holes when the City needed some of the land for the Groat Bridge. In 1957 the name was officially changed to the Victoria Golf Course. The Victoria Driving Range opened in 1961.
In 1949 work began on a new municipal golf course. Riverside Golf Course opened in 1951 on the south bank of the North Saskatchewan River just north of the Dawson Bridge. Rundle Park Golf Course became the City's third course when it opened in 1976.

The Spirits and the Law
Vodou and Power in Haiti
Kate Ramsey
448 pages | 18 halftones, 2 maps | 6 x 9 | © 2011
E-book $10.00 to $30.00 About E-books ISBN: 9780226703817 Published February 2014
Vodou has often served as a scapegoat for Haiti's problems, from political upheavals to natural disasters. This tradition of scapegoating stretches back to the nation's founding and forms part of a contest over the legitimacy of the religion, both beyond and within Haiti's borders. The Spirits and the Law examines that vexed history, asking why, from 1835 to 1987, Haiti banned many popular ritual practices.
To find out, Kate Ramsey begins with the Haitian Revolution and its aftermath. Fearful of an independent black nation inspiring similar revolts, the United States, France, and the rest of Europe ostracized Haiti. Successive Haitian governments, seeking to counter the image of Haiti as primitive as well as contain popular organization and leadership, outlawed "spells" and, later, "superstitious practices." While not often strictly enforced, these laws were at times the basis for attacks on Vodou by the Haitian state, the Catholic Church, and occupying U.S. forces. Beyond such offensives, Ramsey argues that in prohibiting practices considered essential for maintaining relations with the spirits, anti-Vodou laws reinforced the political marginalization, social stigmatization, and economic exploitation of the Haitian majority. At the same time, she examines the ways communities across Haiti evaded, subverted, redirected, and shaped enforcement of the laws. Analyzing the long genealogy of anti-Vodou rhetoric, Ramsey thoroughly dissects claims that the religion has impeded Haiti's development.

4. Cultural Nationalist Policy and the Pursuit of "Superstition" in Post-Occupation Haiti
Andrew Apter | American Ethnologist
"Kate Ramsey tells a fascinating story of antisuperstition legislation in Haiti….a tour de force in the historical anthropology of Haitian vodou and the paradoxes of modernity that it so vividly manifests."
Colin Dayan | Law, Culture and the Humanities
"Ramsey's rich and multilayered book tells a new history of Haiti that reorients how we think politically. Both hard-hitting and revelatory, it teaches us how to understand the law writ large, its plural histories, its effects on everyday life, its ability to absorb and transform and be transformed, to command the public sphere. . . . The continued deformation of Haitian culture, the maligning of vodou—born out of the legality that might seem to deny it—is always political. In calling our attention to the relationship between dead bodies, haunting spirits, and legal authority, Ramsey guarantees a political history that is rigorous and visible—a necessary wakeup call, it is to be hoped, to a mythologized Haiti of zombies, sorcery, and witchdoctors that screens the ongoing economic greed, political guile, and sheer weight of military force."
Matthew J. Smith | Radical History Review
"A sophisticated investigation of how Vodou has been treated by the ruling powers of the island since the era of French colonization."
Toni Pressley-Sanon | sx salon
"The Spirits and the Law is a nuanced and thorough reading of a religious system that has been historically misunderstood, demonized, and criminalized. Ramsey effectively shows how Vodou's treatment both officially and unofficially is part and parcel of a larger battle for power and self-determination from various agents that is waged locally and internationally. In her quest to reveal truths Ramsey leaves no stone unturned. What she cannot include in the main text she includes in the copious notes that could form another text in themselves. Anyone who seeks to truly "build Haiti [back] better" should make this text part of required reading, because no work will succeed in Haiti if those who go in to help refuse to understand that Haiti's fraught and complex political history is inextricably woven with its spiritual history, a spiritual history that is not a "hindrance to progress," as some would have us believe, but one to be respected and honored as a system that has supported and sustained Haiti against impossible odds."
David Geggus | Journal of Interdisciplinary History
"Anthropological studies of Haitian popular religion are legion, but few of them deal with its history other than to claim for it an important role in the revolution of 1791 to 1804, which ended slavery and made Haiti the Americas' second independent state. This impressive book provides an ethnologically informed history of Vodou with a particular focus on the politics of law. In four chapters of increasing length, Ramsey deals with the colonial and revolutionary periods, the nineteenth century, the U.S. occupation from 1915 to 1934, and the debates of the following decade surrounding an emergent cultural nationalism. Ramsey's central problem is to explain why the state only intermittently enforced the laws that criminalized popular ritual practices from colonial times until the 1987 constitution….This richly detailed and sophisticated study, supported by 150 pages of notes, extends the work of [Laënnec] Hurbon and makes an original argument about the interaction of law, culture, and development."
Katharine H. Cross | Caribbean Studies
"Scholarly interest in the history of Haiti has resurged in recent years, largely focused on the Haitian Revolution. There is, of course, also a plethora of scholarship on Vodou in Haiti. Kate Ramsey's The Spirits and the Law should not be overlooked as a run-of-the-mill addition to either body of work. Ramsey's award-winning first book offers a valuable perspective on both the broader history of Haiti and the sociopolitical role of Vodou as she examines the creation and enforcement of laws that restricted ritual practices between the colonial period and the fall of the Duvalier regime."
Mimi Sheller | Slavery and Abolition
"Kate Ramsey's ground-breaking study of the formative relationship between the popular practices of Vodou in Haiti and its legal repression in various periods re-shapes our understanding of the interplay between state power and cultural resistance, and between spiritual forces (lwa) and legislative codes (loi). In resituating how we might approach the relation of religion to modernity, she teaches us how the socalled 'primitive' beliefs and 'atavistic' practices actually emerge out of the ongoing negotiation of power with modernizing states, and in close relation to the legal codes that govern and regulate everyday life. Based on extensive and thorough research (both archival and interviews) encompassing more than a century and a half, this work has the potential to generate transformative understandings of Haitian history, and more widely of Caribbean critical legal studies, Afro-Caribbean religious history, post-emancipation political history and international relations, the philosophy of law, and the study of power and citizenship. Its lessons are also crucial to provoking more thoughtful discussions about the situation of Haiti today."
Patrick Bellegarde-Smith, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee
"Kate Ramsey is a gifted, sophisticated, passionate, and objective student of Haitian life and history. In The Spirits and the Law she has left no stone unturned. She sees Vodou as a modern invention of the Haitian genius, and the book is a platform for analyzing all the big issues—from imperialism, to slavery, neocolonialism, and US exceptionalism expressed as racial paternalism—that have made Haiti what it has become. This is a very big book."
J. Michael Dash, New York University
"In The Spirits and the Law Kate Ramsey explores the links between the construction of Vodou as malicious magic or a progress-impeding force and the penalizing of superstitious practices by the Haitian state. This brilliantly argued and exhaustively researched study examines questions of prohibition and denial that are omitted by other works on Haitian popular religion. It is as much a formidable feat of scholarship as a much needed argument against seeing Vodou as responsible for Haiti's underdevelopment."
Robin Derby, University of California, Los Angeles
"In this compelling study of anti-superstition legislation in Haiti, Kate Ramsey culls a remarkable set of materials to bring to bear on the topic, ranging from colonial travel accounts, memoirs, State Department records, and U.N. sorcery reports. The richness of her account is a testament to indefatigable research, and she develops fresh insights into the related literature as well. This fascinating book adds much to our knowledge of modern Haiti as well as religion and cultural politics in Latin America and the Caribbean in general."
Vincent Brown, Duke University
"A tour de force of research and interpretation, this book offers a spellbinding history of the relationship between popular spiritual practice and the rule of law in Haiti. With fine-grained detail and theoretical sophistication, Kate Ramsey shows law to be a fickle spirit—a powerful but capricious force, having the capacity to lie dormant for long periods and then form suddenly into a dangerous weapon of church, state, and imperial oppression, while remaining susceptible to popular efforts to harness legal powers for beneficial ends. Can great scholarship work like medicinal magic? If, as Ramsey argues, popular religion is a vital resource sustaining Haiti's people, then perhaps The Spirits and the Law can cure the toxic pathologies afflicting so much of the ill-informed commentary on Vodou's role in Haitian life."

Sarah Connor did not say her last word! After Emilia Clarke returns to her role in 2015, she returns to the big screen to play the badass mother of the savior of humanity, John Connor. Linda Hamilton will be alongside her faithful colleague, Arnold Schwarzenegger for a new episode of the Terminator saga , which could mark the beginning of a complete trilogy, even if nothing is confirmed on that side. In any case, the writers have this time decided to ignore the box office failures that have been the last three and return to the basics by placing the plot of this next movie after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Latest. Remember, we were leaving Sarah and John after they stopped Skynet from destroying the world, even though the apocalypse was still hanging over their noses.
Actress Mackenzie Davis has already unveiled the connection with the first two Terminator , it's Linda Hamilton's turn to explain how the film will return to the sources of the saga: " In terms of bringing closer the characters that really matter for you again, as opposed to just emptying the kitchen sink and having so many different versions of Terminator and so many different characters, without a coherent story that might interest you.I think we made a return to the sources " . Good news for all fans of the early days, who grew up with the idea of John Connor would indeed save the world one day and it was absolutely necessary that Kyle Reese succeed his mission!

US Military After Migrants Storm Southern Border: Our Support to DHS Will Continue
Julio Rosas
@Julio_Rosas11
In response to hundreds of people in the migrant caravan storming the U.S.-Mexico border, near the San Ysidro port of entry, the U.S. military is reaffirming their support to the Department of Homeland Security.
"At the request of U.S. Customs and Border Patrol leaders in the San Diego sector, military engineers moved barricades and military police are part of the additional personnel presence at the San Ysidro Port of Entry today," U.S. Northern Command said in a statement.
"Department of Defense military personnel will not be conducting law enforcement functions, but are authorized to provide force protection for U.S. Customs and Border Protection personnel and help make sure CBP personnel can perform their assigned Federal functions," the statement continued. "U.S. Northern Command is providing military support to the Department of Homeland Security and Border protection to secure the southern border of the United States."
NORTHCOM also released photos of military police practicing non-lethal riot control tactics near the San Ysidro Port of Entry:

After some of the migrants had illegally crossed the border and threw rocks at border patrol, tear gas was deployed to disperse the crowd:
Here's moment right before shot bang. You can see some rocks being thrown. pic.twitter.com/p0M9p7Rx4G
— WendyFry (@WendyFry_) November 25, 2018
Rodney Scott, chief patrol agent for the San Diego Sector Border Patrol, told CNN on Monday how some in the caravan began to act:
Similarly to what we saw the first wave of the caravan that came up a week ago or so, the group immediately started throwing rocks and debris at our agents, taunting the agents. Once our agents were assaulted and the numbers started growing, we had two or three agents at a time initially, facing hundreds of people at a time, they deployed tear gas to protect themselves and to protect the border.

Joe Lonsdale, the co-founder of Palantir Technologies and an investor with the Formation 8 venture firm, says the SEC's proposed changes to startup funding rules are unrealistic.
Lonsdale co-founded Palo Alto-based Palantir and is a general partner at San Francisco-based venture firm Formation 8.
The SEC has proposed requiring far more documentation by startups who solicit funds publicly. This has raised fears among some that even pitching at an accelerator Demo Day without filing a Form D 15 days in advance could run afoul of the law and result in a one-year fundraising ban.
"As a founder of multiple companies which have raised hundreds of millions in private capital, I know first-hand how onerous and distracting the fundraising process can be," Lonsdale wrote in a letter to the SEC.


Nestle Waters is a leading manufacturer of bottled water (it owns brands such as Nałęczowianka and Aquarel). The company continually expands the spectrum of its products, making sure that only springs of the highest quality are used. The highly diverse and original range of the company's brands has been appreciated by both customers and experts – as evidenced by numerous awards, including the SuperBrand title, which Nałęczowianka won several times.
The main objective of Nestle Waters was to streamline and align business processes related to the area of purchasing inside the organization (the Procure-To-Pay area), especially by eliminating paper document workflow and minimizing the work and time required for decision-making processes. The company demanded, in particular, a guarantee that data and documents would be well secured and that controlling costs at each stage of the purchasing process would be possible.
Having analyzed these needs, a decision was made to purchase the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system.
The solution based on SharePoint Server 2007, a corporate standard in the global Nestle Group when it comes to internal systems. Comarch suggested using the SharePoint platform along with dedicated, original ECM components to support content management in the purchasing area. The suggested solution was compatible with the existing technology stack and it fully met the business requirements of Nestle Waters.
Operating based on the SharePoint platform, the original components of Comarch ECM implemented at Nestle Waters can be divided into three functional modules for supporting purchasing processes: the purchase order module, the delivery recording module and the invoice workflow module. The solution provides full, comprehensive management of Procure-To-Pay processes for the entire Nestle Waters across two company branches, eliminating paper document workflow in the purchasing process. Every day it is used by over 100 business users.
Implementation of the system was preceded by a thorough verification of Nestle Waters needs and by analytical meetings with Comarch specialists so that a consistent model of the company's procure-to-pay processes and the final shape of the system could be developed. The implementation included configuring the SharePoint platform as well as installing and adapting original Comarch ECM modules.
The project involved implementing cost control mechanisms using the 3-way matching approach. The system monitors the correctness of purchase order amounts, deliveries and the related invoices and then it reports all the discrepancies.
In the case of purchase document workflow and approval, the approval path is determined dynamically, based on the approval matrix in the company's internal structure. This makes it possible to automatically indicate the people responsible for approving/assessing the specific steps of particular processes in line with the internal rules of Nestle Waters.
The system was installed and launched at Nestle Waters headquarters. Comarch continues to provide assistance and system maintenance services, as well as services involving further development of the system and consulting related to the use of the SharePoint platform and Comarch ECM components.
Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems allow a synergistic approach to processes, data and documents.
"Nestle Waters objective was to support and align its business processes related to the area of purchasing inside the organization (Procure-To-Pay), and to eliminate paper document workflow. The supplier had to provide a solution compatible with the existing IT structure and integrate it with the IFS system. Comarch's products matched the required technology stack and the ECM components mde it possible to achieve the desired business objectives."

When the Pinhoti reaches the Ladiga Trail, go left 100' to the campground entrance.
The Post Offices around the Pinhoti Trail probably aren't too familiar with hikers sending stuff to themselves, but General Delivery is a service that has been provided by the USPS for years and you shouldn't have any problems.
Holding times may vary, but most PO's around the Appalachian Trail will hold a package for 2 weeks. Be sure to include a return (home) address on your package in case you don't make the pick up. They will return it to the address you sent it from, at no extra charge (Return to Sender).
mail them a package to hold.

Q: Contour integral of $\int_{|z|=2}\frac{\sin{z}}{z^3-z^2}dz$ So I have a following contour integral
$$\int_{|z|=2}\frac{\sin{z}}{z^3-z^2}dz$$
I was wondering if this is a correct approach:
$D_f=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:r<|z|<2,|z-1|>r\}$
Since $f(z)$ is analytic on $D\cup\partial D$ Cauchy's theorem says
$$0=\int_{\partial D}f(z)dz=\left(\int_{|z|=2}-\int_{|z|=r}-\int_{|z+1|=r}\right)f(z)dz$$
then
$g(z):=\frac{\sin{z}}{z+1},\qquad h(z):=\frac{\sin{z}}{z^2}$
differentiating $g(z)$ gives us
$$g'(z):=\frac{-(z+1)\cos{z}-\sin{z}}{({z+1})^2}$$
$$\int_{|z|=2}f(z)dz=\int_{|z|=r}\frac{g(z)dz}{z^2}+\int_{|z+1|=r}\frac{h(z)dz}{z+1} \\ =2\pi i\left(g'(0)-h(1)\right)\\ = 2\pi i\left(\sin{1}-1\right)$$
is this method also valid for
$$\int_{|z|=1}\frac{dz}{z^2+2z}$$?

A: I didn't quite understand what your method is. It seems that you are splitting the functions up into bits which are only singular at a single point, and then using the residue theorem to integrate about that point. Assuming this, here is how you compute the second integral.
Your function is $$f(z)=\frac{1}{z(z+2)}$$
The integral of $f(z)$ about a circle of radius larger than $2$ centred on the origin would be $$\int_{|z|=r}f(z)\,dz+\int_{|z+2|=r} f(z)\,dz=2\pi i\left(g(0)+h(-2)\right)$$where $g(z)=\frac1{z+2}$, $h(z)=\frac1z$.
However your question asks for the integral of $f(z)$ around a circle of radius $1$ centred on the origin, so the residue at the point $z=-2$ doesn't contribute to this integral. Hence you get $$\int_{|z|=1}f(z)\,dz=2\pi ig(0)=\pi i$$
Note, you only need to differentiate one of the functions if the pole is of order $2$. In the first example, we had $z^2$ on the denominator, hence differentiation is needed. In the second example, we have just $z$ on the denominator, so we do not need to use $g'(z)$ anywhere.

What is Hunter iF? A collaboration of key organisations and individuals in the Hunter involved with innovation, who are working together to build a more effective way of nurturing world class innovation for the benefit of the regional economy. Those involved include innovators, businesses, educational institutions, investors, governments and service providers. It supports all those engaged in innovation, including startups and established industry. We believe that innovation is important to build a stronger, fairer and more sustainable future. Why Hunter iF? The Hunter innovation ecosystem is large, involving over 100 organisations. This makes it complex and often fragmented. Hunter iF will coordinate our innovation effort across the Hunter, for more effective outcomes. It will support and complement those already working in the space, as an umbrella organisation, under a collaborative model. Hunter iF is about creating a healthier innovation ecosystem, with a key aim to generate quality jobs for the Hunter, with an emphasis on 'quality'. What unique services will Hunter iF offer? We believe Hunter iF is unique in Australia, for adopting a broad based, collaborative and inclusive regional strategy to embrace and nurture innovation. It involves people from key areas of the ecosystem: local innovators; established industry; business services; investors; university; and government. We will provide more efficient methods for those engaged in innovation to connect with the right people quickly, and it will facilitate new world-class ideas. We will do this through a series of events and programs. Our newly appointed Project coordinator, Dan Farthing, will be on the ground to assist with the connection process. We are developing training programs for investors and investees in the innovation space, and we will create a body of mentors to help those requiring assistance. Where is it based? As our aim is to connect and collaborate with the regional innovation space, we do not have a single location. Our Project Co-Ordinator, Dan Farthing, can be found at the co-working spaces of our supporters, ensuring we have feet on the ground where the action and ideas are often found. How is it funded? Hunter iF is run voluntarily by numerous contributors. Last year we received seed funding from City of Newcastle, Lake Macquarie City, University of Newcastle, Hunter Founders Forum, Newcastle Now, CSIRO and Hunter New England Health as well as considerable other support from AusIndustry, Hunter Angels, Eighteen04 and Australian Industry Group. We have now secured funding from Jobs for NSW to deliver our program for 2019, as well as financial support from City of Newcastle to deliver training to potential investors and investees. We welcome funding contributions from others who wish to support our vision and programs. What's on the agenda? In 2019 we will launch a new website that showcases Hunter innovation. It will be a go-to resource to better connect startups, innovators, entrepreneurs, investors and service providers. We will run workshops for investors and investees, to provide a better understanding of the investment process and opportunities. We'll be putting on some events including a hackathon and pitch events. We will also build a program to identify and utilise the skills and experiences of mentors to assist innovators. What is the biggest challenge for Hunter innovators at present? Developing an idea into a successful business is hard work. Innovators need to connect with people who have experience in building successful innovation, because collaborating with others greatly improves growth and success. The innovation sector in the Hunter is large, but it is often fragmented and uncoordinated, which we aim to fix. There is also a shortage of capital investment in the space, which we are also seeking to address. What sectors offer most potential for startups? Great ideas come from any sector and Hunter iF seeks to nurture them. The Hunter has particular opportunity in engineering, energy (including cleantech), infotech, defence, aerospace, biomed and manufacturing. How do you rate the Hunter as a startup region? We can be immensely proud of our achievements in innovation. However, the level of disruption is high throughout the world, and we need to continually innovate to build jobs and wealth for all. The Hunter has an amazing list of features that makes it ideal for nurturing innovation, including a strong sense of community, powerful networking, a great university and TAFE, strong engineering and manufacturing, an enviable lifestyle, well-developed arts scene, relatively low costs and proximity to Sydney. The region is motivated, educated, well connected, well located and passionate, with a 'can-do' attitude. I look forward to us all benefiting from achieving the vision of Hunter iF that by 2025 the Hunter will be internationally acknowledged as a thriving centre of innovation that has successfully transitioned into an entrepreneurial knowledge-based economy.

There's a lot going on here... and I love how Marie was able to capture the emotions so effectively in this back-and-forth. And it conveys their personalities so well!
I don't want to say much more on that right now, but suffice to say, there's more going on here than we're willing to talk about. And I'm not just talking about revealing a bit more of Grey and Gloom's past here--though that is part of it!
But I will tip my hand on one thing: the reborn Grey mentions in his rant. The reborn are humans who (almost) die, and instead of passing on, they end up being consumed by their fear and are ultimately reborn as a horror. That'll be explained later-on in-comic, but it's not a spoiler at all, so I don't mind explaining that reference there.


This book covers all different options available for CRM reporting and provides good grounding in CRM reporting aspects so any users/developers want to learn/understand CRM reporting better this is book for them.
The first chapter explain different types of reports available in CRM and also explains installation procedure for CRM 2011 connects and Reporting authoring extension.
SQL reporting service version sections (page 15) explains different SQL server version compatibility with SQL Server and CRM server and states that SQL Server 2012 is not compatible with Visual studio 2012 for CRM 2011 Reports. I guess this was correct at time of book writing but since then Microsoft released update of SQL Server Data tools and after this update Visual studio 2012 can also be used to develop CRM reports for SQL Server 2012.
This chapter explain basic and advanced commands of SQL Language and also FetchXML Language. All the dynamics CRM views are created with this FetchXML language and users can now write reports in CRM 2011 using this language as well.
This chapter takes you through step by step guide on how to create report in CRM using CRM reporting wizard and then how to modify that report in SQL Reporting Service Project.
This chapter explains step by step guide to create report using SQL Report Builder which comes with SQL Reporting services. SQL Report Builder can be used by intermediate user to develop CRM reports.
This chapter looks at advanced tools (visual studio) to create CRM report and this chapter also reviews CRM report parameters and chart controls.
This chapter looks ate crating embed report on CRM entity form. It creates HTML web resource to achieve this functionally and chapter also explains how to create/update this HTML web resource.
This chapter explains process of integrating report in CRM dashboard and CRM charts (i.e. new feature in CRM 2011) basics.
This chapter looks at how one can troubleshoot different issue arising while working with reports in CRM 2011. Quick rightly these details were need as user will tend to hit these issues while developing CRM 2011 report. This chapter also focuses on performance enhancement and SQL Reporting Service Best practices.
This chapter explores CRM reports on different mobile devise like iPhone, iPod and Microsoft Surface and also explains process of configuring IFD authentication with CRM.
This section explores basic expression and their usage in reports and how can you add external code, variable and assemblies in report.
Provided that we already have Dynamics CRM books but I guess each book generally dedicates chapter or two for CRM reporting only while this book is specifically for CRM reporting which is really good.
And although this does not cover all types of reports (i.e. matrix reports, SQL advanced chart type reports) related to CRM it does cover lots of details related to CRM report So if you are just started work in CRM reports or working in CRM reports but want to know more about it this is definitely book for this.
If you are interested in buying above book, here is link for this.

Well, I nearly always find a ball in the garden because we live at the top of a hill and whenever the children play soccer or basketball and the ball gets away from them (as it often does) and rolls down the hill, they often give up the game and run off the to something else. However, the plants are going strong, though one of the gardens is being taken over by pumpkins and winter squash. I've never had any luck with them in the past. Actually, I've never grown pumpkins because they require so much room. They are amazing, stretching out over everything–over the beans, through the corn, onto the lawn. Tiny pumpkins and squash are there. More squash than pumpkins, which is good because we will eat the squash and Hythe is determined we are going to have lots of jack-o-lanterns which I am not as excited about (I'd rather make pie!).
The zinnias in the cut flower garden are blazing. So vibrant and happy. It is nice to be able to bring them in the house.
We are getting loads of green beans still despite the bean leaf beetles and the pumpkin vines. And, tomatoes are ripening everyday, even though we have late blight. I made a tomato pie last night for William and I (and Anne ate a piece for lunch!). Tomato salads and sandwiches are for lunch and supper (and breakfast sometimes). Soon, I will make sauce and freeze.
We picked nearly all the sweet corn but the popcorn is growing. Sweet corn is usually a disappointment in our home garden. We get just about enough for one meal–so many ears with poor pollination, some picked too early (by little hands eager for the first sweet corn). It takes so much room, for so little result. When I checked the corn a week or so ago, I heard a loud hum and saw bees massed around the corn tassels. I was surprised since corn is usually wind pollinated. I did not know bees would gather the pollen. Any bee keepers out there with answers?
