After the passing of the 1877 Prisons (Scotland) Act, the responsibility for the running and financing prisons taken away from local authorities, small local prisons were successively closed in favour of large prisons, such as Glasgow's 1882-built Barlinnie Prison and though Inveraray's jail, the last of the small prisons, was closed on August 31, 1889, courts continued to sit in Inveraray's courthouse until around 1954.4. After an extensive programme of restoration was undertaken by The Scottish Office in the 1980's, the building then lying empty for some years, Inveraray Jail was opened to the public as a 'visitor attraction' in May 1989 and the records of more than 4,000 of its Victorian prisoners put online for the interest of family history researchers.

  • Clergy Sexual Abuse: Annotated Bibliography of Conceptual and Practical Resources
    Clergy Sexual Abuse: Annotated Bibliography of Conceptual and Practical Resources. Preface The phenomenon of sexual abuse as committed by persons in fiduciary relationships is widespread among helping professions and is international in scope. This bibliography is oriented to several specific contexts in which that phenomenon occurs. The first context is the religious community, specifically Christian churches, and particularly in the U.S. This is the context of occurrence that I best know and understand. The second context for the phenomenon is the professional role of clergy, a religious vocation and culture of which I am a part. While the preponderance of sources cited in this bibliography reflect those two settings, the intent is to be as comprehensive as possible about sexual boundary violations within the religious community. Many of the books included in this bibliography were obtained through interlibrary loan services that are available at both U.S. public and academic libraries. Many of the articles that are listed were obtained through academic libraries. Daily newspaper media sources are generally excluded from this bibliography for practical reasons due to the large quantity, lack of access, and concerns about accuracy and completeness. In most instances, author descriptions and affiliations refer to status at time of publication. In the absence of a subject or name index for this bibliography, the Internet user may trace key words in this PDF format through the standard find or search feature that is available as a pull-down menu option on the user’s computer. The availability of this document on the Internet is provided by AdvocateWeb, a nonprofit corporation that serves an international community and performs an exceptional service for those who care about this topic.

  • Dunoon War Memorial Names
    Dunoon War Memorial Private Donald Roderick Ainsworth, 2nd Battalion Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, born at Morvern, Argyllshire, was the second son of William Ainsworth, a Gamekeeper, and Margaret Ainsworth, of 17 Gilbert Street, New Plymouth, New Zealand, formerly Post Office, Ardgour, Argyll. His siblings were John, Isabella, Janet and Henry. When he enlisted at Glasgow, he gave his residence as Hastings, New Zealand, so it would appear that he returned to Scotland in order to enlist in a Scottish regiment. This was not unusual and we have found many people who made similarly long journeys. He died on 24 September 1918, age 23, and is commemorated on the Vis-En-Artois Memorial, and the Hastings, New Zealand Cenotaph (left). Private Charles Aitken, 1st/5th Battalion Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, born in 1889 at Langbank, Renfrewshire, was the second son of Charles Aitken, a Gamekeeper, (died in 1922), and Margaret Aitken, (nee McNiven, born at Tobermory), of Sunny Bank, Ardentinny, Greenock, previously Gamekeeper's House, Langhouse, Inverkip. His siblings were John, Eva Catherine, James, Winifred, Alexander and Agnes. He died on 28 September 1918, and is buried in Voormezeele Enclosure No. 3. Private James Aitken, 1st/4th Battalion King's Own Scottish Borderers, born in 1890 at Moffat, was the third son of Charles Aitken, a Gamekeeper, (died in 1922), and Margaret Aitken, (nee McNiven, born at Tobermory), of Sunny Bank, Ardentinny, Greenock, previously Gamekeeper's House, Langhouse, Inverkip.

An Introduction to Applied Linguistics An Introduction to From Practice to Theory Second Edition Applied Linguistics ALAN DAVIES Second Edition This Second Edition of the foundational textbook An Introduction to Applied Linguistics provides a state-of-the-art account of contemporary applied linguistics. The kinds of language problems of interest to applied linguists are discussed and a distinction drawn between the different research approach taken by theoretical linguists and by applied linguists to what seem to be the same problems. Professor Davies describes a variety of projects which illustrate the interests of the field and highlight the marriage it offers between practical experience and theoretical understanding. The increasing emphasis of applied linguistics on ethicality is linked to the growth of professionalism and to the concern for accountability, manifested in the widening emphasis on critical stances. This, Davies argues, is at its most acute in the tension From Practice to Theory between giving advice as the outcome of research and taking political action in order to change a situation which,
