The Ties That Bind
Migration is among the central domestic and global political issues of today. Yet the causes and consequences - and the relationship between migration and global markets – are poorly understood. Migration is both costly and risky, so why do people decide to migrate? What are the political, social, economic, and environmental factors that cause people to leave their homes and seek a better life elsewhere? Leblang and Helms argue that political factors - the ability to participate in the political life of a destination - are as important as economic and social factors. Most migrants don't cut ties with their homeland but continue to be engaged, both economically and politically. Migrants continue to serve as a conduit for information, helping drive investment to their homelands. The authors combine theory with a wealth of micro and macro evidence to demonstrate that migration isn't static, after all, but continuously fluid.
The Ties That Bind
Immigration integral to globalization, creating connections and mobilizing investments in human and financial capital across countries.
Computational Methods in Systems Biology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Computational Methods in Systems Biology, CMSB 2015, held in Nantes, France, in September 2015. The 20 full papers and 2 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 full and 4 short paper submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the analysis of biological systems, networks and data such as model checking, stochastic analysis, hybrid systems, circadian clock, time series data, logic programming, and constraints solving ranging from intercellular to multiscale.
Helms Descendants, 1720-1991
The brothers George, Tilman and Jonathan Helms and other relatives are believed to have migrated from Bethlehem, Bucks Co., Pa. to Anson County, North Carolina about 1747.

Descendants live in North Carolina, Texas, Kentucky, Virginia, India- na, Tennessee, Alabama, Illinois, Michigan and elsewhere.
Mapes Family Source Material
Thomas Mapes was born in England in 1628 and came to America about 1649. He settled in Long Island, New York. He is credited by most writers as being the progenitor of the family in America. Descendents lived in New York, Michigan, and elsewhere.
The History of Wingate Baptist Church 1810-2009
The first part of this study, published in 1984, recounts congregational growth from a brush arbor meeting to a thriving church adjacent to a bustling college campus. Carolyn Gaddy reconstructs the congregation¿s evolution as it confronted missionary and education controversies, the Civil War, industrialization and depression, and modern times. Jerry Surratt deals with the 25 years preceding the church¿s bicentennial in 2010. It is a deeper probing into challenges of ministry, growth, building renovations, denominational change, and gender issues. The congregation expands its ministry to local needs, regional disaster relief, and the plight of abandoned street children in Ukraine.
