  • Mr. Jeffery Morehouse Executive Director, Bring Abducted Children Home and Father of a Child Kidnapped to Japan
    Mr. Jeffery Morehouse Executive Director, Bring Abducted Children Home and Father of a Child Kidnapped to Japan House Foreign Affairs Committee Monday, December 10, 2018 Reviewing International Child Abduction Thank you to Chairman Smith and the committee for inviting me here to share my expertise and my personal experience on the ongoing crisis and crime of international parental child abduction in Japan. Japan is internationally known as a black hole for child abduction. There have been more than 400 U.S. children kidnapped to Japan since 1994. To date, the Government of Japan has not returned a single American child to an American parent. Bring Abducted Children Home is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the immediate return of internationally abducted children being wrongfully detained in Japan and strives to end Japan's human rights violation of denying children unfettered access to both parents. We also work with other organizations on the larger goal of resolving international parental child abduction worldwide. We are founding partners in The Coalition to End International Parental Child Abduction uniting organizations to work passionately to end international parental kidnapping of children through advocacy and public policy reform. At the beginning of this year The G7 Kidnapped to Japan Reunification Project formed as an international alliance of partners who are parents and organizations from several countries including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The objective is to bring about a rapid resolution to this crisis affecting the human rights of thousands of children abducted to or within Japan. Many Japanese citizens and officials have shared with me that they are deeply ashamed of these abductions and need help from the U.S.

School was out, and every class had found the thing that was demonstrably the best, most impressive thing to do. For the tenth grades about to take their aptitudes, it was cycling down the path from the wind farm head fi rst, until they either lost their courage or their bikes fl ipped and they cartwheeled with bloody knees and grazed elbows. For the seventh, it was preparing their kites for the fi ghting season; the ninth were learning how to kiss in the hidden grove behind the compression batteries, and to survive the fi rst heartbreak of a sixty- second romance betrayed. Yue should have been sitting on grassy roofs with her class, making important pronouncements about grown- up things, now that she was twelve and thus basically a philosopher- queen.

  • Introduction to Black Hole Entropy and Supersymmetry
    Introduction to black hole entropy and supersymmetry Bernard de Wit∗ Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kyoto University, Japan Institute for Theoretical Physics & Spinoza Institute, Utrecht University, The Netherlands Abstract In these lectures we introduce some of the principles and techniques that are relevant for the determination of the entropy of extremal black holes by either string theory or supergravity. We consider such black holes with N =2andN =4 supersymmetry, explaining how agreement is obtained for both the terms that are leading and those that are subleading in the limit of large charges. We discuss the relevance of these results in the context of the more recent developments. 1. Introduction The aim of these lectures is to present a pedagogical introduction to re- cent developments in string theory and supergravity with regard to black hole entropy. In the last decade there have been many advances which have thoroughly changed our thinking about black hole entropy. Supersymmetry has been an indispensable ingredient in all of this, not just because it is an integral part of the theories we consider, but also because it serves as a tool to keep the calculations tractable. Comparisons between the macroscopic and the microscopic entropy, where the latter is defined as the logarithm of the degeneracy of microstates of a certain brane or string configuration, were first carried out in the limit of large charges, assuming the Bekenstein- Hawking area law on the macroscopic (supergravity) side. Later on also subleading corrections could be evaluated on both sides and were shown to be in agreement, although the area law ceases to hold.
