  • Irish Research Council Service User Perspectives of Irish Drug Policy
    Irish Research Council Service User Perspectives of Irish Drug Policy: Toward the Development of a Human Rights Based Approach. Richard Healy BA MA Irish Research Scholar. John & Pat Hume Scholar. A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Department of Sociology. Maynooth University. October 2019. Head Of Department: Professor Sean O’Riain. Research Supervisor: Professor Mary Corcoran. Acknowledgements. It is a strange feeling thanking people for work that has yet to be evaluated, however I am proud of this research and there are many people, groups and institutions without whom this project would have remained in my head and never made it to the page. I will first thank the ‘faceless’ institutions who enabled me to complete this work. The research commenced with the aid of Maynooth University’s John and Pat Hume Scholarship fund, an award that allowed a chancer to get his foot in the door. What followed, with the assistance of Maynooth University’s Sociology Department was an Irish Research Council Award. Both scholarships allowed me to complete my studies without the financial difficulties that inhibit many. Staying in Academia, I owe a debt of gratitude to my Supervisor, Professor Mary P. Corcoran. Straightforward and to the point, her guidance helped me navigate the nonsense and get on with research. In the latter days, her calming influence was invaluable as I fretted over drafts and re-drafts. I must thank the entire Sociology Department; many nuggets were elicited from chance conversations at photocopiers and kettles. My thanks to Professor Jane Gray. The advice to re-order chapters was a relatively simple task but it enhanced my work greatly, insight only an expert can offer.

  • The Mostly Celtic Songbook
    The Mostly Celtic Songbook Mostly Celtic Songbook 2 Introduction After sitting in on some of the Tuesday evening open jam sessions at C.B. Hannegan’s in Los Gatos, and trying to sing along but not remembering the lyrics, it seemed like a good idea to compile a songbook that we could all share. After one or two pints and a few encouraging words from Tony Becker, the idea became a project. So, here it is. It’s not by any stretch of the imagination complete, but it does contain many of the Celtic traditional songs1) that are played, along with some popular country and folk songs. The songs included here are the ones played most frequently, and some I added on my own. In some cases, I took the liberty of editing some of the traditional lyrics for readability, especially the lyrics I got from the Web, and adding or changing a few chords, since many of the songs exist in several different versions anyway. Some of the song titles are listed without the leading “The” and “A” in the index, to make it easier to find them. The chords are written in Nashville notation (well, sort of), so transposing is a piece of cake. For example, the root chord is represented as a 1, and the other chords are numbered according to their relationship to the root chord. So, in the key of C, a C chord is 1, an Am chord is 6m, an F chord is 4, a G7 is 57, and so on. Chord numbering in relative minor keys is arbitrarily based on the root of the corresponding major key, so a Dm is 6m, where F is 1.
