[German] - Liebe, Leben, Gottes Segen: Tagebuch Oktober 2023: Vṛndāvana & Māyāpur

In diesem Tagebuch erzählt der Autor seine Reise von den Heiligen Städten Vṛndāvana, dem Spielort Kṛṣṇas, nach Māyāpur, dem Geburtsort Śrī Caitanya Mahaprabhus. Es ist Indien. Der Zug ist spät dran. Es waren gut 1400 von West nach Ost. Der Alltag ist kunterbunt, die Geschmäcker exotisch und das Gefühl warmherzig, wie eben das Wetter. Indien ist meine zweite Heimat, hier studiere ich das zeitlose Wissen von Yoga, und ja, die Zeit steht wirklich still. Obwohl die materielle Welt im Äußeren modern scheint, tickt in der Heiligen Stadt eine andere Zeit; Ewigkeit. In mir kommt Ruhe auf. Es ist eine lange Reise gewesen und ich bin froh auf dem Weg nach Māyāpur zu sein. Hier werde ich studieren und als vedischer Priester ausgebildet. Neben mir sitzt Viṣṇu Das aus Äthiopien. Er kommt nach Māyāpur, um die Grabstätte seines spirituellen Meisters zu besuchen. Die Rikscha rattert durch die Nacht und in der Heimat vom Goldenen Avatar geht eine besondere Brise, Jasmin erblüht.

Joan Crawford and Bette Davis: The Lives and Careers of the Actresses Who Became Hollywood’s Most Fa

The life of Joan Crawford is one of the most famous Hollywood rags-to-riches tales. While it is common to think of Hollywood as a land offering great opportunity to hard-working actresses, the Horatio Alger myth rarely applies in reality, but it applied almost perfectly to Joan Crawford. Crawford grew up in relative poverty, with both of her childhood father figures abandoning the family before she became a teenager, and she relied on undying ambition in order to progress through the ranks of the show business circuit and then the Hollywood studio system. This drive to succeed continued throughout her entire career, and Crawford’s public battles with both studios (MGM in particular) and other stars (first Norma Shearer and later Bette Davis) were borne out of an unmatched competitive streak. Joan Crawford’s life and career also shed light on the treatment of women in pop culture and in cinema during the early 20th century. Bette Davis presided over Hollywood at a time in which the film industry was at its most influential. Every actress from Katharine Hepburn to Ingrid Bergman and Ginger Rodgers, themselves now considered among Hollywood’s greatest icons, lived in the shadow of Bette Davis. Not only was Davis a box office sensation and commercial success - she became the highest paid actress in 1938 - but she garnered more critical acclaim than any other actress during the time period, as evidenced by the fact that she was the first actress to be nominated for 10 Academy Awards. Recently, her place in history was cemented when she was named as the second greatest actress of the 20th century by the American Film Institute behind only Katharine Hepburn (AFI 100 Years…100 Stars).

First Bull Run: The History of the Civil War’s First Major Battle

After Fort Sumter, the Lincoln Administration pushed for a quick invasion of Virginia, with the intent of defeating Confederate forces and marching toward the Confederate capitol of Richmond. Lincoln pressed General Irvin McDowell to push forward. Despite the fact that McDowell knew his troops were inexperienced and unready, pressure from Washington politicians forced him to launch a premature offensive against Confederate forces in Northern Virginia. McDowell’s strategy during the First Battle of Bull Run was grand, and in many ways it was the forerunner of a tactic Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and James Longstreet executed brilliantly on nearly the same field during the Second Battle of Bull Run in August 1862. McDowell’s plan called for parts of his army to pin down General P.G.T. Beauregard’s Confederate soldiers in front while marching another wing of his army around the flank and into the enemy’s rear, rolling up the line. McDowell assumed the Confederates would be forced to abandon Manassas Junction and fall back to the next defensible line, the Rappahannock River. In July 1861, however, this proved far too difficult for his inexperienced troops to carry out effectively. As the first major land battle of the Civil War, the First Battle of Bull Run made history in several ways. The two sides fought near the railroad junction at Manassas on July 21, 1861, just 25 miles away from Washington, which was close enough for many civilians from the nation’s capital to come and watch what they expected to be a rout of Confederate forces, and for awhile it appeared as though that might be the case. McDowell’s strategy ultimately fell apart though, mostly thanks to the use of the railroad. Confederate reinforcements under General Joseph E. Johnston, including a brigade led by Thomas Jonathan Jackson, arrived by train in the middle of the day, a first in the history of American warfare.

The Lavender Scare: The History of the Federal Government’s Persecution of the Gay Community in the

While the fight over gay marriage has been bitterly contested and debated for much of the 21st century, it’s still somewhat difficult to believe that just 50 years ago, homosexual activity was illegal in nearly every state in America. Homosexuals faced discrimination that surpassed that of even African-Americans or suspected Communists, and their lifestyles were so taboo that they were typically considered to be a security risk because it would be so easy for someone who wished to harm the country to blackmail them. In 1950, a Senate Subcommittee on Investigations reported, “In further considering the general suitability of perverts as Government employees, it is generally believed that those who engage in overt acts of perversion lack the emotional stability of normal persons. In addition there is an abundance of evidence to sustain the conclusion that indulgence in acts of sex perversion weakens the moral fiber of an individual to a degree that he is not suitable for a position of responsibility. Most of the authorities agree and our investigation has shown that the presence of a sex pervert in a Government agency tends to have a corrosive influence upon his fellow employees. These perverts will frequently attempt to entice normal individuals to engage in perverted practices. This is particularly true in the case of young and impressionable people who might come under the influence of a pervert. Government officials have the responsibility of keeping this type of corrosive influence out of the agencies under their control. It is particularly important that the thousands of young men and women who are brought into Federal jobs not be subjected to that type of influence while in the service of the Government. One homosexual can pollute a Government office.” Indeed, in the decades that followed, the FBI kept lists of known homosexuals, and law enforcement agencies regularly raided known gay bars and other similar establishments.

Frank Sinatra: His Life, His Music Career and His Acting Career

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A luminary on both the silver screen and the melodious stage, Francis Albert Sinatra left an indelible mark as an actor and singer in the annals of American entertainment. Hailing from the vibrant city of Hoboken, New Jersey, Sinatra emerged as an iconic figure, embodying the heart and soul of Italian immigrants. Steeped in the melodic nuances inspired by Bing Crosby's velvety, easy-listening vocal style, Sinatra embarked on his musical journey, initially finding resonance with bandleaders Harry James and Tommy Dorsey during the dynamic swing era. The pivotal moment came in 1943 when he inked a deal with Columbia Records, propelling him into solo stardom and capturing the hearts of adoring 'bobby soxers.' The musical maestro unveiled his inaugural album, 'The Voice of Frank Sinatra,' in 1946, marking the genesis of a solo career that would shape the musical landscape. In the early 1950s, as his film career reached a plateau, Sinatra sought new horizons and found himself amidst the vibrant lights of Las Vegas. Here, he forged bonds with the illustrious Rat Pack, etching his name as one of the city's most celebrated resident entertainers. A cinematic resurgence graced Sinatra in 1953 with the success of 'From Here to Eternity,' a turning point that not only earned him an Academy Award but also a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. Buoyed by this triumph, he orchestrated a musical symphony of critically acclaimed albums, including the hauntingly introspective 'In the Wee Small Hours' (1955), the vivacious 'Songs for Swingin' Lovers!' (1956), the airborne melody of 'Come Fly with Me' (1958), the melancholic masterpiece 'Only the Lonely' (1958), the poignant 'No One Cares' (1959), and the effortlessly elegant 'Nice 'n' Easy' (1959). This musical opus, often regarded as among the pioneering 'concept albums,' attested to Sinatra's artistry and timeless appeal.

Niels Bohr and J. Robert Oppenheimer: The Lives and Careers of the Physicists Who Pioneered Atomic E

The Danes have incorporated a system that prizes a balance between work and play, the concept of “hygge,” solid investments made towards the treatment of mental illness, and a stellar welfare model. That has helped ensure that an endless stream of intellectuals, inventors, creative legends, and pioneers have hailed from Denmark over many centuries, from classical scholar Ada Adler to fabled 16th century astronomer Tycho Brahe. One of the most famous, and important, is Niels Bohr, a world-famous physicist and one of the patriarchs of quantum theory. Given the vibrant, peaceful haven that is Denmark today, it’s somewhat ironic that Bohr played an instrumental role in the development of the atomic bomb. Even so, the truth and depth of the matter, much like the self-professed pacifist himself, is far more complex. The Manhattan Project would ultimately yield the “Little Boy” and “Fat Man” bombs that released more than 100 Terajoules of energy at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but as it turned out, the Axis were not far behind with their own nuclear weapons program. When the Nazis’ quest for a nuclear weapon began in earnest in 1939, no one really had a handle on how important nuclear weapons would prove to war and geopolitics. The attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, along with the Cold War-era tests and their accompanying mushroom clouds, would demonstrate the true power and terror of nuclear weapons, but in the late 1930s these bombs were only vaguely being thought through, particularly after the successful first experiment to split the atom by a German scientist. The nuclear age itself was in its infancy, barely 35 years old, but within a few short years the advent of nuclear war loomed over the world and the prospect of the enemy winning the nuclear race kept Allied leaders awake at night.
