Summing Infinite Series Using Residue

if we want to sum an infinite series like  
sum{k=1 to inf} 1/k^2  using residues we can use the residues of H(z)=cot(z)/z^2 , at the poles k*pi , k=1,2,3,..., and Residue of H at z=0 is -1/3, so the sum will be pi^2/6.
 
How can I sum the doubling series :
sum{k= - inf to inf} (1/k^3 +2)  
 
using residue method, I tried to follow the same technique as above but it is not working !?
 
could anyone help me...
 
Thanks
