At the turn of the twentieth century women played a key role in debates about the nature of the Irish nation. Examining women's participation in nationalist and rural reform groups, this book is an important contribution to our understanding of Irish identity in the prelude to revolution and how it was shaped by women.

This book examines the political structure, economic, security and U.S. relations with the countries of Bahrain and Jordan. Protests that erupted in Bahrain following the uprising that overthrew Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on February 11, 2011, demonstrate that Shiite grievances over the distribution of power and economic opportunities were not satisfied by relatively limited efforts to include the Shiite majority in governance. Consequently, several issues in U.S.-Jordanian relations are likely to figure in decisions by Congress and the Administration on future aid to and co-operation with Jordan. These include the stability of the Jordanian regime, the role of Jordan in the Arab-Israeli peace process, the possibility of U.S.-Jordanian nuclear energy co-operation, and U.S.-Jordanian military and intelligence co-operation.
This book of poetry is somewhat special. I can only tell you how it came to be, and that I am only the messenger. There is much more poetry waiting to be written. I have no idea what that is at the moment, and words will only return when this project is underway. The first poem in this book, "A Child Is Born," should make everyone think of their own role in this life. "I Am" will hopefully help you understand exactly what you are and how little respect and understanding you hold for your own heart. "The People Watcher" came from an entity, not physical, and haunted me in a very puzzling way, for days as I recognized various things about myself and others. There is something to learn, or more correctly to remember, in every poem. There is one knocking on my door at this moment that needs me to explain the balance of this world of ours, but that is for another day. I hope you enjoy the words printed here and that they light a few lights of understanding; that they may help to show you another way to make your life full of love and joy. I try to live with as few rules as possible and keep those rules clean. Firstly, the very old and trusted "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Also "to be kind." Remember that "today is all you have." And finally "love is all there is." I wish everyone love in your hearts, peace in your minds and true joy in your lives."
Over the past six decades, the active duty Air Force has significantly changed the way it utilizes Air National Guard (ANG) and Reserve manpower. The continually increasing military operations tempo (OPSTEMPO), combined with a constrained federal budget, has contributed greatly to these changes. The original design for the reserves was a crisis response force for use primarily in times of war or national emergency. The primary concept for the reserve forces was to train and maintain an effective military force of citizen-soldiers with sufficient capabilities for activation to full combat-ready status when needed with little last minute training.1 These citizen-soldiers would gather periodically to conduct military training in order to maintain their combat ready skills. Since the mid-nineties, however, the use of the ANG and Reserve by the active duty Air Force has evolved from primarily crisis-response to utilizing them for steady-state operations. The increased usage of the reserve forces for steady-state operations has had both a positive and negative impact on both the active Air Force and the reserve forces.

Due primarily to a lack of accurate data, little has been written regarding the life histories of individual American Indians. Biographical Indian sketches that have been published are about a few outstanding individuals, mainly leaders in warfare, such as Tecumseh, Weyapiersenwah or Blue Jacket, and Meshekinnoquah or Little Turtle. The authors of this volume have compiled a broad range of biographical data and have woven them into rewarding personal stories about Indian leaders of the lower Midwest (1700-1850) that will engage the reader's attention. In this book, the reader will discover what life was like for thirty-one notable American Indians of the Miami, Potawatomi Shawnee and Delaware tribes. Many of these notables include renowned warriors and patriots of the Indian cause during the 18th and 19th centuries however, several individuals are peace chiefs and religious leaders, women and white captives. For many of these subjects, their lives were interwoven with each other. In the gathering of this book, the authors have pored over letters, diaries, reports, books and internet and have traveled around the Midwest researching historical society archives, libraries and historic sites. Accompanying the biographies are individual pen and ink drawings that add visual interest to the pages. The authors write with a concerned passion about the historic Indian subjects they selected from the history pages of an earlier time. The reader of American Indian history will profoundly benefit from this biographical compilation that is highly readable and informative.

A detailed description and a drawing are given for each plant or plant family, along with its preferred habitats, its distribution within the state, and information on the edible parts.

The pleasure of spring include wild asparagus soup, evening primrose roots in sweet and sour sauce, poke salad, wild onion broth with cornmeal dumplings, and spring beauty fondue. Early summer brings rose butter sandwiches, wild strawberry roly-poly, and steamed cattail spikes (which taste like corn on the cob).

Among the riches of fall are creamy hickory nut soup, hazelnut bread, and pawpaw ice cream.
