Binsar Petition 100220 October 1, 2020 Dear Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf and Senior Official Tony Pham, On September 10th, six ICE agents knowingly violated the agency's Sensitive Locations policy and lied to Binsar Siahaan, an Indonesian asylum-seeker and six-year member of the Glenmont United Methodist Church in Silver Spring, MD in order to arrest him and begin deportation proceedings. In a clear violation of the agency's own policy, ICE entered church property to arrest and detain Mr. Binsar Siahaan, who serves as the congregation's caretaker and lives on the property with his family. As members and faith leaders in the United Methodist Church, we believe church grounds are sacred spaces that should never be deemed unsafe. ICE crossing church property to arrest Mr. Siahaan under false pretenses is a violation of human rights, a breach of ICE's own Sensitive Locations policy, and defies God. These reckless actions pose a huge risk for immigrants throughout the country who are in sensitive locations--whether attending schools, receiving care in hospitals and health facilities, or seeking refuge in faith communities. Originally from Indonesia, and in the United States for 29 years, Binsar and his wife have a pending motion to reopen their strong case for asylum on religious grounds. Posing no threat to their community, Binsar and his wife cooperated with all ICE check-ins and requirements, but have tragically fallen victim to ICE's horrific unjust practices and the Trump administrations' unconscionable method of terrorizing families and faith communities who stand with them. The undersigned United Methodists call on ICE to: • Immediately release Mr. Binsar Siahaan back to his family and church community, AND • Release a public statement committing to follow ICE's own Sensitive Locations policy and not enter houses of worship or other sensitive locations such as hospitals, schools, or public religious ceremonies or demonstrations. The United Methodist Church believes that, “Raids of workplaces, homes, and other social places have violated the civil liberties of migrants. Migrants should be given due process and access to adequate legal representation. Due to these raids and the ensuing detentions and deportations that follow them, families have been ripped apart and the migrant community has been forced to live in a constant state of fear.” (Book of Resolutions, ¶ 3281 “Welcoming the Migrant to the United States.) Mr. Siahaan has two minor children who are U.S. citizens. He is a devoted father, and an active, beloved member of Glenmont United Methodist Church. Our scriptures call us to live out the Christian message of loving and welcoming our neighbors. Right now, the best way to love and welcome our neighbors, to bring wholeness and healing in our community, and to respect the values of our nation and human dignity, is to release him and bring him home. We urge ICE to release Mr. Binsar Siahaan now, and release a public statement to follow ICE's own Sensitive Locations policy and practice. Sincerely, Abel Vega San Antonio TX 78248 Pattie Porter Graham NC 27253 Joshua Larson Chicago IL 60615 Sallie Johnson Lynchburg VA 24502 Rev.

  • The Power of Alphabets Special Issue ALGEBRA Algebra Is an Important and a Very Old Branch of Mathematics Which Deals with Solving Algebraic Equations
    Volume No.8 March - April 2017 Issue No. 2 From the desk of the Editor Dear colleagues, The Alpha story is a fascinating one. Most people would designate as “English” the writing that is used to express the English language. This writing might also be termed “Latin,” or “Roman,” for even in its modern form English writing differs little from the Latin writing of more than 2,000 years ago. The Latin alphabet is a development from the Greek alphabet. The Greek alphabet, in turn, is an adaptation of a writing that was developed among the Semites of Syria about 1500 BC. Outwardly, this first Semitic writing seems to be an original and individual creation. Its principles, however, are certainly based on the Egyptian word-syllabic writing, which, together with the Sumerian, Hittite, Chinese, and other writings, belongs to a great family of ancient systems of writing. The history of the oldest of these writings, Sumerian, can be followed from about 3100 BC. Examples of written numbers exist from even earlier — as early as the late 3rd millennium BC — in other parts of the Middle East. This issue … We have attempted to give each of the 26 alphabets equal weightage. We identified individual contributors and allotted them an alphabet and asked them to put in their creative best in presenting thoughts around the Alphabet. I am confident you will find this issue informative, colourful, fascinating, …. (can I get an adjective starting with each alphabet!). My thanks and congrats to each contributor and thanks to the creative team for making this issue very special.

  • Historical Development and Ethical Considerations of Vivisectionist and Antivivisectionist Movement*
    JAHR Vol. 3 No. 6 2012 UDK 179.4 Invited review Bruno Atalić* Historical development and ethical considerations of vivisectionist and antivivisectionist movement* Abstract This review presents historical development and ethical considerations of vivisectionist and antivivisectionist movement. In this respect it shows that both movements were not just characteristic for the past one hundred years, but that they were present since the beginning of medical development. It, thus, re-evaluates the accepted notions of the earlier authors. On this track it suggests that neither movement was victorious in the end, as it could be seen from the current regulations of animal experiments. Finally, it puts both movements into a wider context by examining the connection between antivivisectionism and utilitarianism on the one hand, and vivisectionism and experimentalism on the other hand. Key words: vivisectionism; antivivisectionism; bioethics; utilitarianism; experimentalism Introduction This review will try to present historical development and ethical considerations of vivisectionist and antivivisectionist movement in order to re-evaluate the accepted notions of the earlier authors. Firstly, it evaluates the Lansbury's notion that anti- vivisectionism was characteristic for the North European Protestant countries like England and Sweden, while vivisectionism was characteristic for the South Europe- an Catholic countries like France and Italy.1 Then, it proceeds to the Mason's over- 1 Lansbury C.
