SEN, s. m. (Mesure de longueur.) mesure de distance dont on se sert dans le royaume de Siam. Quatre sen font le jod, & vingt-cinq jods la roe-neug, c’est-à-dire la lieue siamoise, qui contient un peu moins que deux mille de nos toises. (D. SENA, (Géog. anc.) 1°. île de la mer Britannique près de la côte des Osismiens. 2°. Et Clanis, & Rubico, & Senonum de nomine Sena. C’est ainsi qu’il faut lire ; car il est question dans cet endroit de fleuves & non de villes ; encore moins cela regarde-t-il la ville de Senna en Toscane. Et junctus Sapis Isauro Sennaque, & Hadriacas qui verberat aufidus undas. Cluvier dit que c’est aujourd’hui le Césano, qui coule quatre milles au-dessus de Sinigaglia ; car le fleuve qui arrose Sena, Gallica ou Senogallia est appellé Misus dans la table de Peutinger, & à-présent Misa par quelques-uns, quoiqu’on le nomme assez communément Nigola. 3°. 4°.

Maui Street: Annette Sykes, Maori Elite and Neo Liberalism
I have an enormous amount of respect for Annette Sykes and I like to think I have more than a few things in common with her. She was born and bred in Kawerau and witnessed “a thriving mill town reduced to a community that is dependant on the diminishing generosity of the welfare state”. This experience shaped her perspective. I was also born in Kawerau (in 1991) and I grew up witnessing the horrifying consequences of Ruth Richardson’s neo liberal fantasies and this experience shaped my perspective. Whenever I came back from boarding school and now university I always take time to reflect on the damage two decades of neo liberal policies have had on the town. But anyway Annette recently delivered the annual Bruce Jesson lecture and spoke about ‘The Politics of the Brown Table’. Much of her address is a harsh critique of the so called ‘iwi elite’ and their neo liberal agenda. Neo liberalism makes our people sick. Annette also discussed iwi authorities.

Critical Race Theory Resource Guide
Critical Race Theory Resource Guide Critical Race Theory has its roots in the more established fields of anthropology, sociology, history, philosophy, and politics. The notions of social construction and reality of race and discrimination are ever-present in the writings of known contemporary critical race theorists, such as Derrick Bell, Mari Matsuda, Richard Delgado, Kimberlie Crenshaw, and William Tate, as well as pioneers in the field, including W.E.B. DuBois and Max Weber. This guide was designed to assist upper-level undergraduate level students using the resources usually found in a research university library. This field has its roots firmly planted in American soils, mainly due to the racial makeup of our country.
