Amadou Bamba

Amadou Bamba (Wolof: Aamadu Bamba Mbàkke, Arabic: أحمد بن محمد بن حبيب الله Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Ḥabīb Allāh, 1853–1927) also known as Khādimu 'r-Rasūl (خادِم الرسول) or "The Servant of the Messenger" and Sëriñ Tuubaa or "Sheikh of Tuubaa", was a Sufi religious leader in Senegal and the founder of the large Mouride Brotherhood (the Muridiyya).
Amadou Bamba was a religious leader who produced a prodigious quantity of poems and tracts on meditation, rituals, work, and Quranic study. He led a pacifist struggle against the French colonial empire while not waging outright war on the French like several prominent Tijani marabouts had done.
Early life[edit]
Amadou Bamba was born in the village of Mbacké (Mbàkke Bawol in Wolof) in Baol, the son of a marabout from the Qadiriyya, the oldest tariqa (Sufi order) in Senegal. He was a disciple of the Qadiri sheikh Saad Bah.
Foundation of Mouridiyya and Touba[edit]
Amadou Bamba founded the Mouride brotherhood in 1883.
Amadou Bamba's teachings emphasized the virtues of pacifism, hard work and good manners. As an ascetic marabout who wrote tracts on meditation, rituals, work, and Quranic study, he is perhaps best known for his emphasis on work and industriousness.
Bamba's followers call him a mujaddid ("renewer of Islam"), citing a hadith that implies that God will send renewers of the faith every 100 years (the members of all the Senegalese brotherhoods claim that their founders were such renewers).
Abdoul Ahad Mbacke, the third Caliph (Mouride leader) and son of Amadou Bamba, declared that Amadou Bamba had met the prophet Muhammad in his dreams, a tale that has become an article of faith for Mouride believers. During the month of Ramadan 1895, Muhammed and his companions appeared to him in a dream in Bamba in Touba to confer upon him the rank of mujaddid of his age,[1] and to test his faith.[2] From this, Bamba is said to also have been conferred the rank of "Servant of the Prophet."[3]
He founded the city of Touba in 1887. In one of his numerous writings, Matlabul Fawzeyni (the quest for happiness in both worlds), Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba describes the purpose of the city, which was intended to reconcile the spiritual and the temporal.
Facing colonial rule and exile[edit]
As Bamba's fame and influence spread, the French colonial government worried about his growing power and potential to wage war against them. He had converted a number of traditional kings and their followers and no doubt could have raised a huge military force, as Muslim leaders like Umar Tall and Samory Touré had before him.
The phobia of the colonial administration at the place of any Islamic movement made the judgements given to the Private Council often constitute lawsuits of intention to religious leaders. Stopped in Diéwol, Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba was transferred to the office of the Governor of the colonial administration in Saint-Louis (Senegal). On Thursday September 5, 1895, he appeared before the Private Council of Saint-Louis to rule on his case. Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba prayed two rakkats in the Governor's office before addressing the Council, declaring his firm intention to be subjected to God alone. With this symbolic prayer and bold stance in the sanctuary of the deniers of Islam, Bamba came to embody a new form of nonviolent resistance against the aims of colonial evangelists.[4] As a result, the Private Council decided to deport him to "a place where its fanatic preachings would not have any effect".[4] and exiled him to the equatorial forest of Gabon, where he remained for seven years and nine months.
From the beginning of the 19th century, the imperialist policy of France ended with the defeat of all the resistances armed to Senegal and the installation with a policy of Christianization and assimilation of the new colony to the cultural values of the metropolis. This led to a policy of distance or systematic elimination of the Muslim spiritual guides who dared to mark their distrust. Thus, Cheikh Amadou Bamba, whose only wrong was to have dared to persist openly in the sermon for his religion (Islam) was, for 32 years, subjected to all manner of deprivations and tests. In exile for seven years in Gabon and five years in Mauritania and placed under house arrest in Diourbel, Senegal for fifteen years, Amadou Bamba nevertheless did not cease to defend the message of Islam until his death in 1927.[4]
In the political sphere, Ahmadou Bamba led a pacifist struggle against French colonialism while trying to restore a purer practice of Islam insulated from French colonial influence. In a period when successful armed resistance was impossible, Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba led a spiritual struggle against colonial culture and politics. Although he did not wage outright war on them as several prominent Tijaan marabouts had done, he taught what he called the jihād al-'akbar or "greater struggle," which fought not through weapons but through learning and fear of God.
As Bamba gathered followers, he taught that salvation comes through complete submission to God and hard work. The Mouride order has built, following this teaching, a large economic organisation, involved in many aspects of the Senegalese economy. Groundnut cultivation, the primary cash crop of the colonial period, was an early example of this. Young followers were recruited to settle marginal lands in eastern Senegal, found communities and create groundnut plantations. With the organisation and supplies provided by the Brotherhood, a portion of the proceeds were returned to Touba, while the workers, after a period of years, earned ownership over the plantations and towns.
Fearing his influence, the French sentenced him to exile in Gabon (1895–1902) and later in Mauritania (1903–1907). However, these exiles fired stories and folk tales of Bamba's miraculous survival of torture, deprivation, and attempted executions, and thousands more flocked to his organization. On the ship to Gabon, forbidden from praying, Bamba is said[weasel words] to have broken his leg-irons, leapt overboard into the ocean and prayed on a prayer rug that appeared on the surface of the water, so devout was he. Or, when the French put him in a furnace, he simply sat down in it and drank tea with Muhammad. In a den of hungry lions, the lions slept beside him.
By 1910, the French realized that Bamba was not interested in waging violent war against them, and was in fact quite cooperative, eventually releasing him to return to his expanded community. In 1918, he won the French Legion of Honor for enlisting his followers in the First World War and the French allowed him to establish his community in Touba, believing in part that his doctrine of hard work could be made to work with French economic interests.
His movement continued to grow, and in 1926 he began work for the great mosque at Touba.
After his death in 1927, he was buried at the Mosque in Touba. He was succeeded by his descendants as hereditary leaders of the brotherhood with absolute authority over the followers.
As the founder of Mouridism, Cheikh Amadou Bamba is considered one of the greatest spiritual leaders in Senegalese history and of the biggest influences on contemporary Senegalese life and culture. Mouridism is today one of Senegal's four Sufi movements, with four million devotees in Senegal alone and thousands more abroad, the majority of whom are emigrants from Senegal. Followers of the Mouride movement, an offshoot of traditional Sufi philosophy, aspire to live closer to God, in emulation of the Prophet Muhammad's example. Today, Amadou Bamba has an estimated following of more than 3 million people and parades occur around the world in his honor, including in various cities in the USA.[5]
Every year, millions of Muslims from all over the world make a pilgrimage to Touba (known as the Magal), worshipping at the mosque and honoring the memory of Cheikh Amadou Bamba.[6][7] On one occasion during the pilgrimage, Mouride believers honor Amadou Bamba by facing the Atlantic ocean, to commemorate Bamba's legendary prayer on the water.
Amadou Bamba has only one surviving photograph, in which he wears a flowing white robe and his face is mostly covered by a scarf. This picture is venerated and reproduced in paintings on walls, buses, taxis, etc. all over Senegal.
Modern Mourides contribute earnings to the brotherhood, which provides social services, loans, and business opportunities in return.
Amadou Bamba is also known to have invented Café Touba. Bamba traditionally mixed coffee and spices together for medicinal purposes, and served it to his followers.[8]

The new markup language will boost the m-commerce site experience.
I was talking today with a forward-thinking e-retailing executive: Carol Steinberg, senior vice president of e-commerce, marketing and business development at ShopNBC.com. She and I have kept in touch for some time on the subject of mobile commerce. Today she echoed words from her presentation at last week's Internet Retailer Mobile Commerce Forum. Here is what she had to say:
"We're really keen on ROI and making sure what we're investing in the mobile platform is a worthwhile and good investment. I am just starting to feel that HTML5 will be able to give us the functions we need on our m-commerce site versus app development for the iPhone and Android, which means three platforms we have to maintain and upgrade. And with apps you have to incentivize and encourage your customers to download and use the app. Shoppers know our brand and, significantly, our URL. Their first instinct is to go to the web site based on our URL rather than downloading an app. And if I can get the functionality I need through HTML5 and only have to manage one mobile platform, the site, I think that's better for our business and better for our customers. We're going to look closely at HTML5 and then decide where we're going to go."
HTML5 is a relatively new Internet markup language that holds great promise for mobile commerce, and the mobile web in general. Why? Because it can enable mobile sites to do things that until now only mobile apps could do. For example, it can reach into a smartphone and employ some of the device's more advanced features and functions, such as the GPS system. Another example: HTML5 enables sites to cache data. So, the site can cache page elements in the browser on the device, reducing the amount of future web server calls required to render pages, which means greatly enhanced site performance that rivals that of an app.
HTML5 holds great promise. It will only be after we see a number of sites using HTML5 that we can judge whether apps have something to worry about. But if you're in m-commerce today, or preparing to jump in but can't decide between a site or an app, or both, you should bone up on HTML5 quick. It has the potential to change your mobile strategy. Just ask Carol at ShopNBC, who soon has some big decisions to make.

Supplementary Information
Title III, Part A (1) of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA or the Act), Public Law 94-163, (42 U.S.C. 6291-6309, as codified) sets forth a variety of provisions designed to improve energy efficiency and established the Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products Other Than Automobiles, a program covering major household appliances (collectively referred to as "covered products"). (2) EPCA authorizes DOE to establish technologically feasible, economically justified energy conservation standards for covered products or equipment that would be likely to result in significant national energy savings. (42 U.S.C. 6295(o)(2)(B)(i)(I)-(VII)) In addition to specifying a list of covered residential and commercial products, EPCA contains provisions that enable the Secretary of Energy (Secretary) to classify additional types of consumer products as covered products. (42 U.S.C. 6292(a)(20)) For a given product to be classified as a covered product, the Secretary must determine that classifying the product as a covered product is necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes of EPCA, and that the average annual per-household energy use by products of such type is likely to exceed 100 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. (42 U.S.C. 6292(b)(1))
Under this authority, DOE published a notice of proposed determination which tentatively determined that computer systems meet the criteria for a covered product. 79 FR 11345 (Feb. 28, 2014). DOE received severalstakeholder comments in response to the proposed determination, many of which are addressed in this framework document. DOE will address any remaining stakeholder comments when it issues a final determination of coverage at a later stage in the rulemaking process.
If DOE issues a final determination that computer systems are a covered product, it may establish a test procedure and energy conservation standard for computer systems. DOE may prescribe test procedures to assess the energy consumption of covered products. (42 U.S.C. 6293(b)) For the Secretary to prescribe an energy conservation standard pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 6295(o) and (p) for covered products added pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 6292(b)(1), he must determine that:
(a) The average energy use of the products has exceeded 150 kWh per household for a 12-month period;
(b) The aggregate 12-month energy use of the products has exceeded 4.2 billion kilowatt-hours;
(c) Substantial improvement in energy efficiency is technologically feasible; and
(d) The application of a labeling rule under 42 U.S.C. 6294 is unlikely to be sufficient to induce manufacturers to produce, and consumers and other persons to purchase, covered products of such type (or class) which achieve the maximum energy efficiency which is technologically feasible and economically justified. (42 U.S.C. 6295(l)(1))
Today's framework document is the first step toward initiating this rulemaking process. DOE has prepared the framework document to explain the relevant issues, analyses, and processes it anticipates using when considering a new test procedure and energy conservation standard for computer systems. The focus of the public meeting noted above will be to discuss the information presented and issues identified in the framework document. At the public meeting, DOE will make presentations and invite discussion on the rulemaking process as it applies to computer systems. DOE will also solicit comments, data, and information from participants and other interested parties.
DOE is planning to conduct in-depth technical analyses in the following areas: (1) Engineering; (2) energy use; (3) product price; (4) life-cycle cost and payback period; (5) national impacts; (6) manufacturer impacts; (7) emission impacts; (8) utility impacts; (9) employment impacts; and (10) regulatory impacts. DOE will also conduct several other analyses that support those previously listed, including the market and technology assessment, the screening analysis (which contributes to the engineering analysis), and the shipments analysis (which contributes to the national impact analysis).
DOE encourages those who wish to participate in the public meeting to obtain the framework document and to be prepared to discuss its contents. A copy of the framework document is available at: www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/81.
Public meeting participants need not limit their comments to the issues identified in the framework document. DOE is also interested in comments on other relevant issues that participants believe would affect energy conservation standards for these products, applicable test procedures, or the preliminary determination on the scope of coverage. DOE invites all interested parties, whether or not they participate in the public meeting, to submit in writing by September 2, 2014, comments and information on matters addressed in the framework document and on other matters relevant to DOE's consideration of coverage of and standards for computer systems.
The public meeting will be conducted in an informal, facilitated, conference style. There shall be no discussion of proprietary information, costs or prices, market shares, or other commercial matters regulated by U.S. antitrust laws. A court reporter will record the proceedings of the public meeting, after which a transcript will be available for purchase from the court reporter and placed on the DOE Web site at: http://www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/appliance_standards/product.aspx/productid/81.
After the public meeting and the close of the comment period on the framework document, DOE will collect data, conduct the analyses as discussed in the framework document and at the public meeting, and review the public comments it receives.
DOE considers public participation to be a very important part of the process for determining whether to establish energy conservation standards and, if so, in setting those new standards. DOE actively encourages the participation and interaction of the public during the omment period at each stage of the rulemaking process. Beginning with the framework document, and during each subsequent public meeting and comment period, interactions with and among members of the public provide a balanced discussion of the issues to assist DOE in the standards rulemaking process. Accordingly, anyone who wishes to participate in the public meeting, receive meeting materials, or be added to the DOE mailing list to receive future notices and information about this rulemaking should contact Ms. Brenda Edwards at (202) 586-2945, or via email at email@example.com.
Issued in Washington, DC, on July 9, 2014.

Earnings for LNG will be released a week from Monday 02/18. Some of the chatter on this board, of a "significant technical pull back" is ludacris. Looks to me like the shorts are looking for cheaper shares. I expect earnings to beat significantly, and they know it. Including Cramer.
Sentiment: Buy
Earnings report doesnt really matter what does is anticipation of monster profits late in 2015 that is going to be the golden goose.
Agree with gary9148.

I personally would not trust any other doc. Dr Rimar took care of my grandfather and he was amazing,so when I had something happen myself,there was No question about who I wanted to see..He is genuine,caring,and honest,what else could you ask for..Thank You Doctor Rimar
Excellent on all countd
I could not have asked for better care, or a better surgeon to take care of me.
Highly astute, caring and knowledgeable, I would recommend Dr. Rimar to my family and friends. If you want a doctor who requires excellence of himself and those around him this is the doctor to see. He is painstaking in making sure the diagnosis is accurate, which promotes appropriate treatment and does not waste time.
Six years ago I was sent to Dr. Rimardiagnosised with a 3.0 aneurysm, I was scared to death when I got there, I was introduced to Dr. Rimar, and from then on he has takin care of me, he answeres all my questions without hesitation, he is compasionate, and caring, if I am worried about anything I call his office and he never neglects to return my calls the same day, and answers my question until my mind is releifed, He is my Dr. and more than that he is my freind after almost 6 years, I trust Dr. Rimar, He is a wonderful Man and a great Dr.
Dr. Rimar goes above and beyond. His knowledge, sacrifices, sensitivity, professionalism and optimism is apparent the first time you meet him. He has the ability to single handedly improve your life. The extra time spent in the waiting room is well worth it! God bless him and his staff. I'm confident he will continue to amaze both his patients and his colleagues!
I honestly cannot review this docter because he spent 5 minutes with me and just repeated what was in the written report given to him. Seems like a good prostrate though.
Dr.Rimar did a magnifficent job!A challenging,difficult,risky operation went perfectly.The follow-up care was excellent.The doctor went out of the way to be with the patient(me)when needed or to answer questions from family(my wife).I trust him completely and I would recommend him without hesitation.Beaumont Hospital can be proud to have a doctor like Dr.Rimar on its staff!

The Panthers, who as you probably know by now are undefeated, have a lot of folks to credit for their success. Luke Kuechly has had a great season, Josh Norman locks up top receivers week in and week out and Greg Olsen has been the team's best pass catcher and one of the better blockers.
But if there's an MVP to be found on the team, it has to be Cam Newton. Every week it seems Newton is making the big play to either keep the Panthers in the lead or get them a lead back. Newton has accounted for 28 touchdowns through Week 14, is an improved passer and is the quarterback no defender wants to bring down.
MORE: Infamous NFL fights | Watch Marcus Mariota catch a TD... Yeah you read that right
That was no different Sunday as Newton and his offense seemed locked in from the kickoff. He threw three first-half TDs to catalyze a big win over the rival Falcons.
Here's a look at some of the potiential MVP's biggest plays of the season.
