ST. PATRICK'S DAY MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT McALEESE

Beannachta=ED na F=E9ile P=E1draig oraibh go l=E9ir, sa bhaile agus ar =
fud an
domhain.

I wish to send warm greetings on this St Patrick's Day to Irish people =
at
home and abroad, and to Ireland's friends around the globe.

Today is a day of celebration in Ireland and for our global Irish family
throughout the world. Over many decades the people of Ireland, resolute =
in
their belief in freedom, democracy and human rights and the pursuit of
truth, justice and peace, have worked to create the successful Ireland =
of
today. We can all bear witness to the arduous trials of our =
predecessors.
Yet, through it and perhaps because of it, we have built a new =
confidence
and sense of direction =96 our collective aim to create a better Ireland =
and a
better life for our children and our children's children.

Many years of hard work have gone into our economic development which =
has
blossomed in recent years. We have created a society in which the
traditional welcome for the stranger is extended to people from many
countries whose endeavours have contributed hugely to our economy and to
enriching our cultural diversity. We are building new communities,
transforming inhabitants into neighbours and neighbours into friends. =
Our
national emblem, the shamrock, itself teaches us to honour unity in
diversity even as it celebrates diversity in unity.

Our country today is vibrant, cosmopolitan and filled with energy and, =
with
our own distinctive national character and our international relations =
are
playing an important part in our maturing as a nation and deepening our
understanding of our place in the world. The world is ever-changing and =
we
accept that we need to change with it. Greater understanding of our =
fellow
members of the European Union, and of the wider world, is a central part =
of
meeting the challenges and seizing the opportunities which lie before =
us. I
am confident that the strength of Ireland's culture and values will =
stand to
us in the future.

To my fellow Irish citizens, and to our friends celebrating this day =
with
us, may I say, in the words of St Patrick himself:

A blessing on their peaks,
On their bare flagstones,
A blessing on their glens,
A blessing on their ridges.
Like the sand of the sea under ships,
Be the number in their hearths;
On slopes, on plains,
On mountains, on hills, a blessing.

I wish all of you a very happy and peaceful St Patrick's Day.

Go mbainim=EDs ar fad sult agus aoibhneas as an l=E1 speisialta seo.

From the New York Times=20

March 17, 2006
Two Million to View N.Y. St. Pat's Parade=20
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Filed at 12:09 p.m. ET

NEW YORK (AP) -- The chairman of the St. Patrick's Day Parade marched in =
the
famed New York event Friday and sidestepped questions about his =
incendiary
remarks that compared gay Irish-American activists to neo-Nazis, the Ku =
Klux
Klan and prostitutes.=20

"Today is St. Patrick's Day. We celebrate our faith and heritage, =
everything
else is secondary," said the chairman, John Dunleavy, who was wearing a =
sash
of the Irish colors.=20

A day earlier, Christine Quinn, the City Council's first openly gay =
leader,
blasted Dunleavy for his remarks. Quinn, who is Irish, declined to
participate in the Fifth Avenue parade after organizers barred an Irish =
gay
and lesbian group for a 16th straight year.=20

"I don't even think they dignify a response," Quinn said of Dunleavy's
comments to The Irish Times.=20

Huge crowds lined the streets at the start of the parade, at 44th Street =
and
Fifth Avenue, waving Irish flags and wearing green hats, green =
carnations
and painted green clovers on their faces.=20

The city's parade, with 150,000 marchers, is the nation's oldest and =
largest
St. Patrick Day parade.=20

New York "is the kernel of the whole Irish community in the U.S.," said =
Joe
Sanning, 52, a police officer with the Ireland National Police Service =
in
Tipperary, Ireland. "We don't have parades like this at home.=20

Spectator Mary Sweeney, who moved to New York from Ireland 15 years ago =
with
her two daughters, said, "I want them to grow up knowing their Irish
heritage. Everyone wants to be Irish today."=20

Dunleavy set off a firestorm when he told The Irish Times: "If an =
Israeli
group wants to march in New York, do you allow Neo-Nazis into their =
parade?
If African Americans are marching in Harlem, do they have to let the Ku =
Klux
Klan into their parade?"=20

Referring to the Irish Lesbian and Gay Organization, Dunleavy said, =
"People
have rights. If we let the ILGO in, is it the Irish Prostitute =
Association
next?"=20

The comments drew protests at Friday's parade.=20

One protester held a sign that read, "Police on Parade: Bigots in Blue."
Police threatened another demonstrator with arrest if he didn't stop =
yelling
expletives at the marchers.=20

"The comments bring to the forefront a longstanding bigotry, and the =
bigotry
often translates into violence in our communities," said graduate =
student
Emmaia Gelman, 31.=20

Gelman, who was among a dozen protesters organized by a group called =
Irish
Queers, hoisted a sign that read, "Troops Out, Queers in," a reference =
to
military groups participating in the parade.=20

Police on scooters positioned themselves between the marchers and =
protesters
at 57th Street, who chanted: "We can march in Dublin, we can march in =
Cork,
why can't we march in New York?"=20

Quinn said the city's Irish gays had long hoped to march with their own
banner, like other groups, but were willing to walk with the City =
Council as
a unified group.=20

"There were moments where I was hopeful that we could have come to some
agreement," said Quinn, who was arrested in 1999 for protesting at an
exclusionary parade in the Bronx. But that didn't happen."=20

Dunleavy told The New York Times in Friday's editions that Quinn "is =
more
than welcome to march as the leader of the City Council, but no buttons =
or
decorations in any shape or form."=20

Efforts to let Irish gays march under their own banner date to 1991, =
when
parade organizers first rejected an ILGO application. Instead, 35 ILGO
members were sprayed with beer and insults as they marched with a =
Manhattan
division of the Hibernians and then-Mayor David Dinkins. It was the =
group's
last appearance in the parade, which draws up to 2 million spectators.=20

"You know the song: 'When Irish eyes are smiling, all the world seems =
bright
and gay,"' said Brendan Fay, who has spent 16 years in the thick of the
fight to march. "Well, not on Fifth Avenue."=20

Mayor Michael Bloomberg marched in the parade Friday with his =
predecessor,
Rudolph Giuilani, and refused comment on the dispute.=20

Asked about Dunleavy's comments, Giuliani said, "That should be for =
another
time." The parade should focus on the contributions of the Irish =
community,
he said.=20

Bloomberg had earlier urged the Hibernians to change their stance. "I've
always believed this is a city where all the parades should be open to
everybody, and orientation, gender ... should not be the deciding =
thing," he
said.=20

The mayor marched earlier this month in an inclusive St. Patrick's =
parade in
Queens.=20

Fay said the seemingly endless battle for inclusion gets exasperating. =
"I
sometimes joke there will be a peace brokered on the streets of Belfast
faster than between the Irish on Fifth Avenue."=20

But Quinn said she was optimistic for the 2007 parade. "I've only been
speaker for 10 weeks," she said, "so now we have 12 months to try to =
figure
this out."=20

Studies research library, here in my attic in Bradford.

With the help of some new bibliographic/citation software my books are now
shelved in alphabetical order by AUTHOR.

I can now set this quiz...

1.
The A section of my collection is very small.

Name one book, NOT by Donald Akenson, author and title, from the A section.

2.
The I section of my collection is very small.

Name one book, author and title, from the I section.

3.
Three books have the same title.

Give details, author and title, of these three books.

4.
What fourth book with this title is MISSING from my collection?

5.
Eight books have the word 'question' in their titles. Name two of them,
author and title.

6.
Ten books have the word 'exile' in their titles. Name two of them, author
and title

7.
Ten books have the word 'hunger' in their titles. Name two of them, author
and title

8.
What is the last book in the collection, author and title, on the bottom
shelf, right hand corner, near the window?

Send the answers to me at
Email Patrick O'Sullivan

Three lucky winners can chose from my collection of duplicate copies - these
duplicates having been identified by that same bibliographic/citation
software.

I have been asked, What happened to the Irish Diaspora list traditional St.
Patrick's Day Competition that we used to have, years ago?

Well, I've been in a bad mood...

Also, for the last couple of years, I have found myself travelling in March.
Like an Irish politician...

Anyway...

I have long wanted to use some trusty bibliographic/citation software - it
is such an obvious use of computers. The background to this year's
competition is that in 2005 I at last - after some years of experiment and
debacle - settled on a bibliographic/citation software system that I am
happy with. And - so far - trust not to collapse or crash...

The first thing I did, very easily with this software, was to catalogue the
some 2000 books in my personal Irish Diaspora/Irish Studies collection. It
is an odd collection, built up over the years, often through lucky finds -
my copy of Jackson, for example. I have never been able to buy
systematically. Some books I have bought just to highlight an issue, and
flag up the gaps. Some important books I still have to go to libraries to
consult.

The software has also identified where I have duplicate copies of books. I
don't know about other people - perhaps it is old age - but I find now that
when I have to remember more than one thousand items, somehow the brain does
not seem to be as good as it used to be.

But sometimes I have deliberately bought duplicate copies. For example,
when Paddy Hillyard's Suspect Community appeared in the remaindered
bookshops I bought many copies - it is such a pivotal book. And I have been
able to donate copies to starting-up Irish Studies courses.

So, with the help of my software I have set a little quiz about my book
collection. See separate email. Three lucky winners can each choose a book
from my duplicates.

It might be objected that people who have actually visited Bradford, and sat
among my books, might have some advantage in this competition. I dismiss
such objections...

I am now cataloguing my collection of Irish Diaspora Studies articles - a
more difficult task. So far 1000 items have entered my system. But I find
myself returning to a thought I had some time back - one of the reasons the
Irish Diaspora list does what it does - that there is some sort of citation
problem around Irish material. I have been exchanging emails with some
colleagues about this - and we might return to the issue in the near future.

Good luck with the competition...

Should the competition be limited to Irish Diaspora list members? I don't
know. What do people think?

Paddy

In praise of ... St Patrick's day

Leader
Friday March 17, 2006
The Guardian

Every year, Ireland celebrates its national day more indulgently and more
enthusiastically than the other nations of these islands will ever rival. We
of the more buttoned-up offshore European nations will find ourselves more
than usually aware of that today. This is mainly because of the happy
convergence which allows this year's national festivities to coincide with
Gold Cup day at Cheltenham. But Britain, and even Ireland itself, are only
minor players in the globalised St Patrick's day phenomenon these days.

In North America, March 17 has been turned into a continent-wide festival of
green Hibernian kitsch which has in turn been re-exported around the world,
from Japan to Poland. The loveable-leprechaun Irishness of this Americanised
March 17 is not, to be honest, either a truthful or an attractive
phenomenon. But then neither is the plastic Paddiness of Dublin's own St
Patrick's festival which, according to an Irish Times writer this week, is
permeated by "the stale odour of state and corporate mediocrity".

St Patrick's Day may have failed to measure up to De Valera's dream of
comely Irish maids dancing barefoot at the crossroads in springtime. But at
least the Riverdance and leprechaun dominated events are less dispiriting
than the orgy of public drunkenness and incontinence to which Dubliners will
be subjected today. If ever there was an event in need of rescue from the
politicians and reinvention from the tat-merchants, it is St Patrick's Day.
But that's for another year.

Hello Paddy and fellow list members

Happy St Patrick's Day to all, although to be honest, that's not something,
in my memory, that people in Ireland ever wished one another; we left that
to the 'Yanks'. We had our own preferred and dreary methods of commemorating
the saint, events replete with ill-dressed infantry, sour children sitting
on the back of ill-disguised commercial lorries or dispiritedly going
through the motions of the Walls of Limerick, improbably fresh-faced
American high-school girls with short skirts and goose-pimples in the cold
Irish March air, rain-soaked crowds looking glumly on.

The Guardian leader today only tells part of the story. I don't know what
the level of drunkenness was in Dublin today, although at least the evening
news reports don't contain any headline shocks (so far...). If there is a
good side to the event it lies in the way in which Patrick can be co-opted
into the agenda for a new multiethnic Ireland: we don't have to import the
Brazilians and Poles and Nigerians any more, because they live here. The
sort of exuberance which we used to put down to US excessiveness (after all
our old mood of morosity went better with the national ethos here in
pre-Celtic Tiger days) seems to have take root here. Harrumph.... maybe it's
not such a bad thing.

I have a problem all the same with the commodification of the whole thing -
nowadays it's the St Patrick's Day Experience. When all is said and one it
did mean something to assert one's tribal and national identity in a
seething America of ethnic passions and conflicts, and who are we back here
to judge or begrudge (although I think it's high time the AOH passed the
baton on to the newer and more inclusive Irish of contemporary America and
made room for all persuasions, whether gay and/or Catholic, black or white).
In Dublin it's now in the hands of Ireland Inc. - the Guardian is not wrong
about that. In the process, anything which might even vaguely smack of
religion, or origins, or place, or culture, is either extirpated or
re-packaged. This is not the way forward to a more inclusive Ireland - it's
a marketing exercise in blandness. The past may be another place, but we
don't go forward by forgetting.

I must be getting older and more curmudgeonly with the passing years.

Grits teeth... We have noted before a rather weird use of the notion of
'Celtic' in management and marketing studies. A lot of it I simply do =
not
understand - Irish people and companies do not win contracts by being
insouciant about quality and deadlines.

Now here is the TOC of a Journal of Strategic Marketing Special Issue, =
March
2006, Celtic Marketing Concepts.

Stephen Brown=92s Introduction is a free sample, freely available...

Brown writes cheerfully, AND makes valid points...

Note especially the discussion of =91heritage=92...

Certainly flags up in a helpful way this weird discussion.

Christianity, Gender, and the Working Class in Southern Dunedin, 1880-1940

Abstract:
This article is a study of the southern suburbs of Dunedin, which during the
late nineteenth century became the most industrialized and working class
urban area of New Zealand. Analyzing the social composition of fifteen
southern Dunedin churches, I question the idea, widely held by New Zealand
historians, that the working classes had largely turned their backs on
organized religion. In keeping with recent scholarship in the social history
of British and Irish religion, I show that unskilled workers were better
represented in many southern Dunedin congregations that previous historians
have acknowledged and that skilled workers numerically dominated most
churches. When women are included in the analysis, working class
predominance increases further. Signing the suffrage petition in remarkable
proportions, working class Christian women turned the southern suburbs into
a world-leading first wave feminist community. Moreover, varieties of
popular Christianity flourished beyond the ranks of active churchgoers. I
conclude by suggesting that New Zealand historians need to rethink the old
"lapsed masses" and "secular New Zealand" assumptions and to investigate the
diverse varieties of Christianity shaping the culture, and their sometimes
conflicting this-worldly meanings.

Abstract

Mexico and Ireland, traditionally countries of emigration, experienced
pronounced multinationalization of their economies during the 1990s. In
Ireland net emigration declined, but in Mexico it remained quite high,
suggesting that Ireland advanced in the mobility transition while Mexico did
not. Several reasons are offered to explain this, reflecting Mexico's
relationships with the United States, multinational corporations, and local
income and social conditions in Mexican regions. In Ireland and its
relationship with the United Kingdom, by contrast, these factors generally
took the reverse direction. This article uses the comparison to examine the
relationship between declining emigration and multinational investment and
the question of whether Mexico may be expected eventually to reverse its
present trends.

Mental Health Social Work and the Troubles in Northern Ireland
A Study of Practitioner Experiences

Summary: During the last decade increasing attention has been paid to the
impact of the Troubles1 on social work in Northern Ireland. In this paper,
the authors describe the first survey used to test some of the assumptions
which exist in the literature. An 87-item questionnaire was applied to a
range of social work staff currently working in, or associated with, mental
health settings. One hundred and one questionnaires were returned: it is
estimated that this represented over 70 per cent of mental health social
workers in Northern Ireland.

Findings: The design of the questionnaire elicited both qualitative and
quantitative data. The findings reveal a workforce with complex religious
and national identities and many of the respondents have experienced
relatively high levels of Troubles-related incidents whilst carrying out
their duties in a variety of organizational and geographical settings. High
proportions of respondents received minimal agency support and training to
equip them to deal with Troubles-related problems faced by them during this
period.

Applications: The authors conclude that the profession and employing
agencies should pay greater attention to past and present effects of the
Troubles on social work practice and develop appropriate strategies for
supporting, training and resourcing staff in this neglected area.
