Detective Clark Philips is upping the ante; his team of police officers and FBI agents embark on an operation to undercut Mafia run blind pigs and unmask Mafia ties with the Catholic Church.
Building upon their successes in SAX CLUB, the real-to-life characters continue their uphill battle in BLIND PIG, the second historical fiction novel in the "Detroit Thorn Birds" series.
It's the early '80s, Detroit is hemorrhaging; a criminal juggernaut has brought the city to its knees -- the Mafia has outwitted and outmaneuvered what is widely known as the nation's most corrupt police force. The city's social fabric is torn beyond repair, neighborhood gangs are rampant -- unethical political officials offer no help -- the situation is hopeless Like the characters in Colleen McCullough's bestseller novel, The Thorn Birds, the Detroit Thorn Birds are unrelenting in their resolve; they refuse to succumb to the evil forces permeating their small neighborhoods -- they're clawing to save their dignity and way of life.

Is thievery the second big scandal of the Catholic Church? Get the facts. Priests were not the only ones engaged in deviant behavior, and sex abuse was not the Church's only form of criminality; thousands more priests and staff members were embezzling and stealing, giving root to the thievery scandal in the Catholic Church.
THIEVERY is a documentary based upon the collection of ninety-seven (non-sex abuse) cases uncovered through a comprehensive investigation of legal cases, newspaper stories, and articles reported from 2002 to 2018. Throughout this period, sex abuse scandals dominated comment about the Catholic Church. And rightfully so. It's estimated that priests imposed their will upon over 100,000 innocent children.
THIEVERY uses actual news stories to illustrate the types of financial mismanagement perpetrated by unethical priests and staff members. It reveals how depraved bishops covered up countless cases of theft. It demonstrates how Church officials failed to hold bishops and priests accountable. It conveys a sense of urgency for action to be taken by the Church hierarchy.
With estimates of thievery in the U.S. Catholic Church now surpassing $1.2B annually, legal costs for sexual abuse cases escalating, operational expenses growing, the number of lapsed Catholics increasing, and the percentage of contributions dwindling, THIEVERY raises the daunting question: Is the Catholic Church too big to fail?

Accompanying the Dying describes the human skill and art of companioning someone through dying. There is a wide gap in this knowing (of how to accompany the dying), which is why this book is timely and needed at this juncture of the "death positive" movement. The book is meant to empower us as a society to understand how to die well in this modern age. Deanna describes the newly emerging role of the "end-of-life doula," which is a nonmedical role that provides practical, emotional, and spiritual support to the dying and their family. This role is a powerful solution to the looming crisis in health care as our baby boomers and their elders age and die in the oncoming years.
The book is overflowing with wisdom that only someone with years of experience can impart, offers historical context and present-day initiatives and describes how end-of-life doulas and health-care advocates can change the face of dying wherever they choose to serve.
No doubt, Accompanying the Dying takes its place among the great works of humanity, bringing us to the next level of awareness in companioning our family, friends and communities with skillful, loving care.

Cochran, of Missouri, in the House of Representatives, Wednesday, March 16, 1898 I call the attention of this House and of the country to the fact that for more than a year, upon this side of the Chamber, the de mand for the recognition of the belligerent rights of the Cuban patriots has been incessantly made, and to the further fact that, in order to evade performance of that plain duty, every subterfuge possible to he invented has been resorted to by the Republican majority in this body.

Автор: Dodge Mary Cochran Название: A List of the Soldiers in the War of the Revolution from Worcester, Mass: With a Record of Their Death and Place of Burial (Classic Reprint) ISBN: 133383246X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781333832469 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 7330.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Excerpt from A List of the Soldiers in the War of the Revolution From Worcester, Mass: With a Record of Their Death and Place of Burial With the organizing of the Colonel Timothy Bigelow Chapter, D. A. R., the work of locating the graves of Worcester's revolutionary soldiers was begun. The list itself was first compiled from the State Archives and a few other authentic sources. No records other than the original ones were used except in one instance, viz. - the roll of fifty-four men enlisted from Worcester under Capt. William Gates, Col. Jonathan Hol man's regiment, who marched July 17, 1776, for service in New York. Capt. Gates' record for this time can be found in the State Archives, but no roll of his men is to be found there. In 1876 Mr. Albert A. Lovell included in his history of Worcester in the War of the Revolution, a copy of this roll, the original of which he found in the possession of the American Antiquarian Society. This roll cannot now be found, and but for the copy made by Mr. Lovell the names of seventeen of these Worcester men whose only enlistment this was, would be unrecorded. After completing the list of men credited to Worcester, came the more arduous task of identifying these men, tracing many of them to other States, obtaining records of death, and locating graves. To accomplish this the sources of information have included town, church, family and county court records, registries, private papers and local newspapers. While realizing that the most exact accuracy must be observed to make such a record of value, the compiler feels that even with the greatest care errors are unavoidable Where so many sources of information have been called upon.
