LOIS AND BEVERLY’S. The truck, which visits seven sites in Southern Maryland each month, provides many in the community who live on a limited income the ability to enjoy a delicious, nutritious, and warm meal at no cost. Lois, who is a teacher’s aide at a local school knows her salary doesn’t leave much wiggle room in her budget so knowing Catholic Charities is there has eased her mind. The program also allows her to help feed her elderly aunt and uncle. Beverly relies on the Meals & Hope Food Truck to feed six members of her family. Each week, those in line are greeted with a warm welcome as well as a warm meal. Through the Meals & Hope Food Truck, Catholic Charities is able to grow its roots in Southern Maryland and inspire friendships like Lois and Beverly’s. 8 9 EMERGENCY SHELTERS LOW-BARRIER SHELTERS 1,500+ 15,157 ANNUAL REPORT PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE HOUSING PROGRAMS 2017-2018 SINGLE ROOM OCCUPANCY SITES MORE THAN 1,500 BEDS WERE PROVIDED LAST YEAR, FROM SINGLE INDIVIDUALS TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS TO HOMELESS MEN, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN TO FAMILIES, CATHOLIC CHARITIES’ HOMELESS YOUTH TRANSITIONAL PROGRAM EACH NIGHT.

TORTURE AND COERCIVE INTERROGATION: A CRITICAL DISCUSSION DOMINIC J WATKINS-SMITH A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Sheffield Hallam University for the degree of Master of Laws by Research. September 2017 Acknowledgements I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sam Burton and James Marson for all of the advice and support they have provided. Further, I would like to express my gratitude towards them for their continual dedication to the Sheffield Hallam Law department. Abstract This thesis aims to explore why torture, deemed illegitimate by the Western world for more than a century, has resurfaced as a topic of debate, and persists despite its formal prohibition. It also endeavours to shed light on the main issues involved in the ‘torture debate’. To do so, it begins by exploring the history of torture; examining how it has developed over time, and how its uses have changed.

  • The Horan Family Diaspora Since Leaving Ireland 191 Years Ago
    A Genealogical Report on the Descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock by A.L. McDevitt Introduction The purpose of this report is to identify the descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock While few Horans live in the original settlement locations, there are still many people from the surrounding areas of Caledon, and Simcoe County, Ontario who have Horan blood. Though heavily weigh toward information on the Albion Township Horans, (the descendants of William Horan and Honorah Shore), I'm including more on the other branches as information comes in. That is the descendants of the Horans that moved to Grey County, Ontario and from there to Michigan and Wisconsin and Montana. I also have some information on the Horans that moved to Western Canada. This report was done using Family Tree Maker 2012. The Genealogical sites I used the most were Ancestry.ca, Family Search.com and Automatic Genealogy. While gathering information for this report I became aware of the importance of getting this family's story written down while there were still people around who had a connection with the past. In the course of researching, I became aware of some differences in the original settlement stories. I am including these alternate versions of events in this report, though I may be personally skeptical of the validity of some of the facts presented. All families have myths. I feel the dates presented in the Land Petitions of Mary Minnock and the baptisms in the County Offaly, Ireland, Rahan Parish registers speak for themselves. Though not a professional Genealogist, I have the obligation to not mislead other researchers.
