ANDREWS VIOLENCE, TERRORISM AND THE ROLE OF THEOLOGY: REPENTANT AND REBELLIOUS CHRISTIAN IDENTITY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ST MARYS COLLEGE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF A PHD BY DAVID BRANNAN ST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND SEPTEMBER 2006 Acknowledgements and Dedication While I have done the work and accept the mistakes in this dissertation as purely my own—anything good that came from this has been because of many other people who have helped me along the way. Bruce Hoffman is the greatest terrorism specialist in the world, but more than that he has been my friend and mentor along the way. I hope you will allow me to continue following along behind you learning and growing by watching and listening to you. Anders Strindberg is a hard headed Swede without whom I could not have had nearly as many fun arguments about my topic. I sure hope we have many more arguments in the future. Philip Esler guided me in this dissertation through the attacks of 9/11, me going to serve in Iraq and after I was wounded, he encouraged me to return to finish even though I didn’t really want to.

    ISRAEL ROCHA, JR. CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER REPORT TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (Addendum to slide deck) March 26, 2021 Recognition Cook County Health established the ICARE Awards two years ago to recognize employees who demonstrate the characteristics of Integrity, Collaboration, Accountability, Respect and Excellence. CCH announced the 2020 Employees of the Year in January. The Cook County Health Foundation will honor the CCH 2020 ICARE Employees of the Year at today’s board meeting. INTEGRITY: Cook County Health defines integrity as being trustworthy, dependable, and reliable when called upon to deliver a service. This includes fulfilling assigned tasks, communicating openly and honestly, and acting in ways that reflect positively on Cook County Health. Denise Colletti is an Activities Therapist II at Cermak Mental Health Services. She has been with Cook County Health since 1994. In their nominations, Ms. Colletti’s colleagues cited her “relentless dedication to patients and colleagues” and her willingness to “go above and beyond to help”. In addition to performing her duties as Activities Therapist, Ms. Colletti has helped patients create murals with positive messages and used her own funds to sew over 2000 face masks with filters and instructions for cleaning. Her colleagues went on to say, “She has done so not for the recognition, but because she truly cares for the well-being of others.” COLLABORATION: Cook County Health defines collaboration as always interacting with coworkers and other departments in a respectful manner and valuing their contributions. This includes cooperating with coworkers and assisting them when help is needed. Blessing Onuorah is a Clinical Nurse I for Cermak Patient Care Services.
