Sharia in the City Negotiation and Construction of Moral Space
SHARIA IN THE CITY NEGOTIATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF MORAL SPACE BY SHARIF ISLAM DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi, Chair Associate Professor Zsuzsa Gille Associate Professor Junaid Rana Associate Professor Assata Zerai ABSTRACT This dissertation is primarily concerned with how sharia is practiced by Muslims from a variety of backgrounds in Chicago’s Devon Avenue and how they co-construct physical and moral spaces. More specifically, I am interested in how sharia as a divine, non- contingent moral and legal code is understood and analyzed in various contingent situations and everyday settings such as producing, distributing, marketing and consuming halal food products. Drawing on conversations with residents, employees, and customers who visit stores in Devon Avenue, as well as archival research, my aim is to demonstrate the various multifaceted understandings and implications of sharia for Muslims in the United States. I argue that the multifaceted interpretations and practices of sharia in the United States are connected with the rhythms and everyday practices of Chicago and beyond. These connections, rhythms, and practices are reflected and interpreted in the actions and comments of Muslims and non-Muslims alike. The goal here is not just to show that the religious (for instance, sharia) and the non- religious/secular (grocery stores, restaurants, farms) are intertwined but to what extent these seemingly separate and disparate domains and spaces may be concurrently called upon within the framework of Islam, sharia, and halal food. -
Standard Operating Procedures
A-PDF Merger DEMO : Purchase from www.A-PDF.com to remove the watermark STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR STERILIZATION OF STRAY DOGS UNDER THE ANIMAL BIRTH CONTROL PROGRAMME Compiled by Animal Welfare Board of India Animal Birth Control (ABC) & Anti-Rabies Programme is being implemented in almost all major metros of India Over 1 lakh stray dogs are sterilized & vaccinated against rabies every year under the Animal Birth Control (2001) Dog Rules The Animal Birth Control Programme is currently being implemented in over 60 cities all over India, including major metros like Delhi, Jaipur, Chennai, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Jodhpur and Kalimpoong. In Tamil Nadu & Goa, since 2007, the Animal Birth Control and Anti-Rabies Vaccination Programme has been successfully implemented for the entire state. This has led to Tamil Nadu state pioneering a new concept of a Participatory Model of the ABC Programme in 50 Municipalities and 5 Municipal Corporations, with 50% cost sharing by local bodies on participatory basis. Similarly, the Union Territory of Delhi too has adopted the Participatory Model of the ABC Programme since 2008. Tamil Nadu has also been at the forefront of rabies control initiatives, having constituted the country’s first State level Coordination Committee on Rabies Control and Prevention in January, 2009, with the first meeting held on April 20th, 2009. The Animal Welfare Board of India is promoting such initiatives throughout the country. In all Metros, where the ABC Programme has been successfully implemented in India, a significant reduction in the number of human rabies cases has been noted. The Animal Birth Control Programme is the only scientifically proven method to reduce the stray dog population in a city or town. -
On the Reticular Tissue and Lattice=Fibers Occurring in the Milk=Spots of Omentum
On the Reticular Tissue and Lattice=fibers occurring in the Milk=spots of Omentum. By Dr. Yukio Hamazaki. From the Pathological Department of Okayama Medical College (Director: Prof. Oto Tam ura). 2 Figures (Plate III) and 3 Text Figures. Ranvier and Weide n reic h regarded the omentum as a flattened- out lymph gland and the abdominal cavity as its lymph sinus. The latter, furthermore, theoretically emphasized that the omentum is nothing but a sheet of reticular tissue, the "taches laiteuses" correspond- ing to the secondary nodules. Lately, Kiy ono agreed with the above view, though lie pointed out that the histiocytic cells in the milk-spots do not form reticular tissue, unlike those in the lymph glands. At the Fifteenth Pathological Congress of Japan (1925) I reported that the milk-spots in the rat, cattle, and pig are provided with a certain kind of reticular tissue. The purpose of the present paper is to settle this problem using specific stainings for the reticular fibers and for the lattice-fibers ("Gitterfasern" of v. Kupffer), which may be in an intiniate relation with them. Material and methods. The material was obtained from the cattle, pig , dog, cat, rabbit, guinea-pig, rat, mouse, chicken and human subject. As the control the organs containing reticular tissue, i. e., lymph glands , spleen and thymus gland were also examined. The material fixed with 10% solution of lormalin was studied as stretched specimens and as sections . For reticulum-staining the eosin-methyl blue method modified by the author was used: 1. Sections are stained for 30 minutes in 1% solution of eosin (a few drops of glacial acetic acid is added to 100 cc of the solution) . -

ANIMAL PROTECTION WORK Animals, being the most vulnerable of our society, are regularly at the receiving end of endless cruelty and neglect in the hands of humans.

We identify, investigate, counsel and prosecute the offenders wherever necessary. Listed below are the highlights of some of the noteworthy cruelty prevention work by PFA Hyderabad this quarter: OPERATION KARUNA On the 4th of June, 87 camels that were being taken for slaughter were spotted by a PFA volunteer.

Avian Blood. the Transformed Cells Occurred in Incubated Blood
THE FORMATION OF MACROPHAGES, EPITHEIID CELLS AND GIANT CELLS FROM LEUCOCYTES IN INCUBATED BLOOD * MAGARET REED LEWIS (From th Carxge Laboratory of Embryology, Johns Hopkixs edical Scho) While tissue cultures would seem to afford an appropriate technic for the study of the part taken by the white blood-cells in various conditions, this method has seldom been employed. In 1914 Awro- row and Tlmofejewskij studied the white blood-cells of leukemic blood in plasma cultures, Loeb (i92o) followed the amebocytes of the king crab in dotted blood, and Carrel (192I) observed the growth of the buffy coat of the centrifuged blood of the adult chicken in plasma cultures. The method by which the observations incor- porated in this paper were made is simpler than that of any of the above investigators, consisting merely of the incubation of hanging drops of blood taken, by means of a paraffined pipette, either from the heart or from the peripheral circulation. The transformation and growth of the leucocytes into macro- phages, epithelioid cells, and giant cells were observed in the blood of the chick embryo, young chicken, adult hen, mouse, guinea-pig and dog, and i human blood. In every kind of blood emined there developed first a large wandering cell, several times larger than any of the normal leucocytes, which was phagocytic for red blood- cells, melanin granules, carbon partides, dead granulocytes, and tuberde bacili Somewhat later there appeared a cell more like a prmitive mesenchyme cell, and still later the epithelioid cell was formed. This cell was sometimes binudeate and in some instances a :ypical multinudeated giant cell (Lahans giant cell) was formed. -
