The Murderer and the Taoiseach: Death, Politics and GUBU – Revisiting the Notorious Malcolm Macarthur Case
A Murderer. A Leader. The Scandal of an Era.
‘Reads like a thriller but is sadly all too true … a brilliant account of shocking crimes and the dramatic political crisis they caused’ David McCullagh
The summer of 1982 was long-seared into the Irish public imagination for more than just its record high temperatures. That July, an aristocrat named Malcolm Macarthur went on a brutal killing spree, taking the lives of two innocent young people – Bridie Gargan and Dónal Dunne – in a doomed plan to remedy his financial woes.
A massive manhunt was launched and, in a sensational turn of events, Macarthur was captured in the home of the State’s top law officer, Attorney General Patrick Connolly.
The scandal attracted worldwide headlines and resulted in untold damage to Taoiseach Charles Haughey. The words he used to describe the dark events – grotesque, unbelievable, bizarre and unprecedented – coined the era-defining phrase GUBU.
Here, award-winning political journalist and GUBU podcast-maker Harry McGee retraces the happenings of that long hot summer and beyond. From the cat-and-mouse game to track down an unpredictable killer to Macarthur’s extraordinary capture, he considers both the life and psyche of a murderer, and that of the leading political figure of the time – a man similarly driven by greed, status and a sense of himself as existing above the law.
Including previously unknown aspects of the trial and interaction with Malcolm Macarthur himself, The Murderer and the Taoiseach is a compulsive journey through tragedy and scandal.

The Neuroscience and Neuropsychology of Gambling
Gambling disorder is a behavioural addiction that represents the clinical extreme of a spectrum of gambling-related harm. What insights can neuroscientific and neuropsychological methods provide to help understand this condition and improve existing programs for treatment and prevention?
This volume describes recent research using an array of contemporary tools including structural and functional brain imaging, and neurocognitive assessment. These analyses consider brain activity and psychological functioning in people with gambling disorder under resting conditions, due to tasks of reward processing and inhibitory control, and as a function of important sources of individual differences including depression and impulsivity. This volume also synthesizes contemporary research using animal models to examine decision-making under uncertainty from a behavioural neuroscience perspective, as well as synthesizing evidence from pharmacological treatments for gambling disorders. These findings complement research to understand substance use disorders and other emerging forms of behavioural addiction. This volume contains contributions from many of the leading research groups in this exciting field.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of International Gambling Studies.

The Popular History of Graffiti: From the Ancient World to the Present
What is graffiti? And why have we, as a culture, had the urge to do it since 30,000 BCE? Artist Fiona McDonald explores the ways in which graffiti works to forever compel and simultaneously repel us as a society. When did graffiti turn into graffiti art, and why do we now pay thousands of dollars for a Banksy print when just twenty years ago, seminal graffiti artists from the Bronx were thrown into jail for having the same idea? Graffiti has not always been imbued with a sense of aesthetic, but when and why did we suddenly “decide” that it is worthy of consideration and criticism, just within the past few years?Throughout history, graffiti has served as an innately individualistic expression (such as Viking graffiti on the walls of eighth-century churches), but it has also evolved into a visual and narrative expression of a collective group. Graffiti brings to mind not only hip-hop culture and urban landscapes, but petroglyphs, tree trunks strewn with carved hearts symbolizing love, and million-dollar works of art. Learn about more graffiti artists and rebels such as: the band Black Flag, Lee Quinones and Fab 5 Freddy, Dandi, Zephyr, Blek le Rat, Nunca, Keith Haring, and more! Illustrated with stunning full-color photos of graffiti throughout time, The Popular History of Graffiti promises to be an important and dynamic addition to graffiti literature.

The Power of SEO: A beginner’s guide to increasing traffic
One of the biggest concerns for any webmaster (website owner) is the traffic, more so how the traffic to the website can be increased. As a beginner in the online space, this may also be your biggest concern.Many sites fail because the site owners have never found a way to generate consistent traffic. One truth you must accept is that traffic is the key to success. More traffic can mean more business exposure and thus more sales.
There are many ways you can bring visitors to your website. You could use:
1. Paid Ads
Many platforms, including Google and Facebook, allow users to pay to show their content to other users on their sites. It is an effective method to generate traffic quickly, but it can also be expensive. It also requires some ad optimization knowledge that many beginners miss.
2. Social media
Social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest are great methods for bringing visitors to your website. These platforms can be a great source of consistent traffic in the long run. The problem with this method is that the traffic you can get depends on how many fans you have.
It may take time to generate enough followers to provide you with consistent traffic. This is also not to say that a change in the platform (s) policy / algorithm (s) could kill traffic to your site.
A good example is Facebook which changed the algorithm a few years ago. This change has effectively killed page usage as fewer followers can now see posts from pages they follow.
3. SEO
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization and that’s what we’re going to talk about today.
SEO is one of the most consistent ways to get visitors to your website when done right.
This technique can be easily defined as using certain methods to rank higher on Google’s search results page. Depending on your industry, it may take time to get there, but it’s worth it in the long run.
All of the methods listed above can help increase traffic, but the one we always recommend beginners use is SEO. This is because it provides consistent results and is inexpensive to do.
SEO is your key to getting more traffic to your website. It is like that because Google’s search engine attracts a fair number of visitors every day. If you play your cards right, you can get a lot of these visitors as traffic to your website. In order to get great results with this method, there are some principles you should follow, which we will discuss later.
You have to understand that Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a long game. Don’t expect immediate results, you will be disappointed!
Now that we’ve gotten to the basics, dive deeper into this guide to get a better understanding of SEO and how to use Google to get more traffic.
