Summary

In "Gun Running for Casement in the Easter Rebellion, 1916," Karl Spindler presents a meticulous exploration of the clandestine arms operations that fueled the pivotal uprising. Employing a blend of historical analysis and narrative storytelling, Spindler captures the tension and urgency of 1916, illuminating the interplay between local insurgents and international allies. The work is contextualized within the broader spectrum of Irish nationalism and the socio-political landscape of early 20th-century Europe, drawing on primary sources that lend authenticity and immediacy to his narrative. Karl Spindler, an accomplished historian and scholar, specializes in Irish revolutionary history. His keen interest in the complexities of national identity and the quest for self-determination is evidenced through his extensive research and fieldwork. Through his unique lens, Spindler not only recounts historical events but also echoes the voices of those who were often marginalized in traditional accounts, providing a more nuanced understanding of the motivations behind these revolutionary actions. For those interested in the intricacies of the Easter Rebellion and the broader narrative of Irish resistance, Spindler's work is an essential and enlightening read. It offers not only a detailed account of arms smuggling but also an exploration of the larger ideals that drove men and women to risk everything for their cause.

    "O Lord Jagannatha, the crest jewel of the Niladri hill! O supreme Brahman in a wooden form! O dark-hued Lord Shyam! Please be merciful upon me." 
    Jagannatha, (Sanskrit: “Lord of the World”) is the form under which Krishna is worshipped at Puri, Orissa, India. The 12th-century temple of Jagannatha in Puri towers above the town. In its sanctuary, wooden images represent Jagannatha, his brother Balabhadra (Balarama), and his sister Subhadra. Although Krishna is absolute and transcendental to material nature, to accept the loving service of His devotees, He appears before us as the temple deity in the form of stone, metal, wood, or paint. Jagannatha is a wooden form of Krishna. Jagannatha is no one else but the ecstatic manifestation of Krishna, who appears in His most merciful form to help us go back to Godhead. Therefore, ISKCON founder Srila Prabhupada introduced the Jagannatha Rathayatra in many cities worldwide to uplift the conditioned souls from the spell of Maya (illusion).  
    Since Lord Jagannatha came to the western world in the mid-1960s millions have embraced the yoga of immersion in his divine pastimes. In this singular rare and unique audiobook, here is everything you need to know about the Bhakti yoga, traditions, and meditational practice of not only Jagannatha but also his brother, Baladev, and his younger sister, Suptra. Written and narrated by a fifty-year devotee of Lord Jagannatha (to whom his guru gave the same name, Sripad Jagannatha Dasa) this is the audiobook for anyone interested in the finer points of yogic philosophy, devotional yoga, and the ancient study of deep self-knowledge. A true treasure from this spiritual plane! Jai Jagannatha!

    “This book offers insight and help to motivate and maximize learning for the Internet Generation”—from the coauthor of The Distracted Mind (Eric Milou, Professor of Mathematics, Rowan University).Look around at today's youth and you can see how technology has changed their lives. They lie on their beds and study while texting and chatting online with friends and scrolling through TikTok. How does the new, charged-up, multitasking generation respond to traditional textbooks and lectures? Are we effectively reaching today's technologically advanced youth? Rewired is the first book to help educators and parents teach to this new generation's radically different learning styles and needs. This book will also help parents learn what to expect from their “techie” children concerning school, homework, and even socialization. In short, it is a book that exposes the impact of generational differences on learning while providing strategies for engaging students at school and at home.“Larry's research-based, positive, proactive messages are a welcome relief from the unsupported fear-based messages that are unfortunately also present. Rewired should be considered a ‘must-read' by all professionals who work with youth, especially those in leadership positions.” ―Nancy Willard Director of Center for Safe and Responsible Internet Use
