But first, he will receive more medical attention and is due to see his family face-to-face for the first time since his capture. The timing of the reunion remained unclear, and officials said the ini- tial meeting might be brief, depending on the advice of psychol- ogists.

  • The Cultural Formation of Mass Incarceration
    The Biography of an Institution: The Cultural Formation of Mass Incarceration Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nicole Barnaby, B. A. Graduate Program in African American and African Studies The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Devin Fergus, Advisor Denise Noble Lynn Itagaki Copyright by Nicole Barnaby 2016 Abstract It may be hard for some to justify how the United States imprisons over two million people when it is hailed ‘the land of the free,’ but this thesis argues that there are very real social, economic and political drivers behind this growing trend having nothing to do with crime. While mass incarceration has its roots in other older forms of racialized social control, it exists in its current form due to an array of cultural conditions which foster its existence. Utilizing the cultural studies tool known as the circuit of culture, this thesis aims to provide a holistic understanding of the articulation of social factors contributing to the existence of mass incarceration. In order to do this, mass incarceration is assessed with the use of the 5 processes of the circuit of culture (production, regulation, representation, consumption and identity) and a specific look at its relation to the Black community over time is considered. ii Vita 2012…………………………B.

However, there has been no official comment on the rumours about the resignation, which if true would mean scrapping the grilling filed two weeks ago by three MPs over alleged violations, especially the payment of the $2.2 billion penalty to US’ Dow Chemical. Hussein submitted his resignation to the prime minister along with all Cabinet members two weeks ago after MPs surprised everyone by filing two requests to grill the ministers. In the meantime, Hussein carried out one of the biggest reshuffle in the oil sector, replacing the chief exec- utive officers of all the eight companies under Kuwait Petroleum Corp. The shakeup also included replacing the chief execu- tive officer of KPC Farouq Al-Zanki, who was replaced by Nezar Al- Adasani. A number of MPs swiftly welcomed the reported resignation but no one confirmed the report. MP Abdullah Al- Tameemi said the accept- Hani Hussein ance of the resignation of the oil minister was “long over- due” but called for following the issue on the payment of Dow penalty in court.

  • May 6, 2020 TO: ASMI Board of Directors FROM: Hannah Lindoff, Senior Director of Global Marketing & Strategy RE: International Program Report
    DATE: May 6, 2020 TO: ASMI Board of Directors FROM: Hannah Lindoff, Senior Director of Global Marketing & Strategy RE: International Program Report The international program received a Market Access Program (MAP) funding award of $4,453,652 for FY21. The FY 2021 international program spend plan also includes $1,540,000 in Agricultural Trade Promotion Program (ATP) funds and $2,495,000 in matching funds, for a total budget of $8,488,652 to conduct marketing programs in nine regional programs across the globe. Included in this budget are ATP funds specifically set aside to fund activities managed by the technical program, communications program, and sustainability program. This budget reflects the broad diversification strategy that ASMI international embarked upon with the advent of ATP funding in 2019. The budget also reflects a five year spend plan for ATP. Although official confirmation is pending, we have received un-official confirmation that our proposal to extend ATP across five years rather than three has been approved. With the outbreak of a novel coronavirus first detected in China in December 2019, the ASMI international program began to deal with the effects of COVID-19 at the beginning of 2020. Shipments to China had already slowed substantially due to the ongoing tariff situation, but the extension of the Lunar New Year and extended shutdowns in processing facilities and ports sent ripple effects throughout the global supply chain and as early as late January, ASMI saw its first cancelled events. In February, ASMI welcomed the first ever millennial in-bound mission to Alaska, bringing buyers from the “next generation” to Seattle and Kodiak.
