The soul - what a great word! Ever since Karl had seen the cult film "Local Hero" with the elegiac music of Mark Knopfler in the 80s, a longing for the grandiose landscape of Scotland had lain dormant in him. For decades, his approach was limited to developing a taste for single malt whiskies. When he finally travelled to Scotland, he naturally had to go on their trail. But where? Single malts are the crown of Scotch whiskies. Speyside on the eastern slope of the Highlands as the "single malt country" par excellence was logically the first place he headed. Whether by bicycle between Glenlivet and Glenfiddich, by roadster to the local hero film location Pennan or by ferry to the home of peat-...
Never before has a country left such a strong mark on my memory. I simply had to write down my Irish impressions. The hustle and bustle of Galway, the Girl of Connemara, the mummies of Saint Michan, the Black Rose and the Crane, the Ring of Kerry - everything still seems like yesterday. Only a few days, and yet it seems like a small eternity. So much to tell ...

Wer möchte als Taucher nicht neutral tariert sein und schwerelos unter Wasser dahingleiten können? Welches Wissen aus dem Bereich der Physik hilft dem Taucher und dem Tauchprofi beim Verständnis des Themas Auftrieb und Tarierung? Da es sich bei diesem eBook nicht um ein Kompendium des Tauchens oder der Physik handelt, gibt es keine Ausbreitung und Wiederholung fundamentaler Grundkenntnisse. Also keine langatmigen Darlegungen zu Fragen wie: Was ist Druck? Sagt man Atmosphäre, Kilogramm pro Quadratzentimeter oder Bar? Oder ist etwa Pascal richtig? All dies und auch was es mit den in den SI-Einheiten auf sich hat, lässt sich mit ein par Klicks fundiert, ausführlich und kostenlos im Intern...
Schon aus der Zeit der Tauchtabellen kennen wir die vollmundige Aussage: Unsere xyz-Tabelle ist konservativer als andere. Auch Tauchcomputer und Simulationsprogramme für PC und/oder Tablet machen diesen Anspruch geltend. Was wird damit suggeriert bzw. dem Taucher versprochen? Solchen Aussagen entgegen stehen nicht nur sog. "Produktrückrufe", die wir als Konsumenten fürchten und von denen auch Tauchcomputer nicht verschont sind. Deutliche Kritik gibt es auch an den Rechenmodellen diverser Tauchcomputer, was deren Validierung anbetrifft; soll heißen: Wurden diese bei echten Tauchgängen getestet – und falls ja, wie? In diesem eBook werden Tauchcomputer in Praxistests auf Schwachstellen u...

Spanning from the islands of Sicily to the neighborhoods of New York, a tale of mothers, daughters, love, sacrifice—and choices—resounding through generations. Julia Parlatone doesn’t have much to remember her Italian mother by. A grapevine that Sarina planted still flourishes in the backyard of Julia’s childhood home in Astoria, Queens. And there’s a song, “Stella Mia,” she recalls her mother singing—my star, my star, you are the most beautiful star—until the day she left three-year-old Julia behind and returned to Italy for good. Now a happily married schoolteacher, Julia tries not to dwell on a past she can’t change or on a mother who chose to leave. But in an old trun...
