Adams,Jane The power of one Why was Paul de Freitas, a games designer, shot dead aboard a luxury yacht and what secret was he protecting that so many people are prepared to kill to get hold of?

  • 2007 Dema Reaching out Award Nomination Form
    2013 DEMA REACHING OUT AWARD NOMINATION FORM ABOUT THE AWARD: The Reaching Out Award was first presented in 1989. The original intent was to recognize individuals who have made a significant contribution to the sport of diving by “reaching out” in some special way to improve the sport for everyone. There are many ways to reach out and do something extraordinary for the sport. Most that have been recognized were pioneers who helped develop techniques related to their special areas of expertise. Their contributions have been made in such areas as photography, training, equipment design, publishing, travel, retailing, water safety, exploration and science. Since its inception, the Reaching Out Award has become more than just recognition of these individual achievements; it has become the industry’s HALL OF FAME. These are the leaders and heroes of our sport. They are the ones who have helped make diving what it is today. Some have greater name recognition than others, but each is, in their own way, as important to the development of diving as any other. To become a member of DEMA’s Hall Of Fame is an extraordinary achievement and is available only to those who truly deserve to be recognized for their outstanding efforts and contribution to the sport. There are many individuals whose works go unnoticed and unheralded. The form below is an opportunity for anyone in the industry to make an application either for themselves or for someone whom they believe honestly deserves to be so recognized. CRITERIA: There are only two criteria for an applicant to the DEMA Hall of Fame and recipient of the Reaching Out Award: 1.

I was very disappointed in the plot of this Oregon bookBy tim holbrookI was very disappointed in the plot of this Oregon book. There is way too many sub-plots and details that distract and make it difficult to keep the story line straight. In addition, the sub-plots are constantly jerking you away.On the plus side, there is good suspense, and lots of action--perhaps too much action. And the actual Oregon ship is not really detailed as in the other books. And we find a great many more characters in this book--but most are simple cut-outs, and not much character development. For example we find that now the Oregon has a woman pilot for its amphibian plane, as well as a Tiny and the helicopter guy. Where did the Amphib come from?Anyway, OK book, but disappointed in the over-all writing.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

Baffin Island : Husband-and-wife team Sam and Remi Fargo are on a climate-control expedition in the Arctic, when to their astonishment they discover a Viking ship in the ice, perfectly preserved—and filled with pre—Columbian artifacts from Mexico. Lists with This Book. But hey, everyone has a wordcount, right? I found that the situations were not as soul pou Most people would find that Archeology is a boring subject. The adventure and action are decent. So, there you go. The rubbing is incomplete, however, and the Doctor requires the rongo-rongo to bring them back; but Richards is now obsessed with the thought of Stockwood's death, and when DaBraisse returns to the island, she tries to make a deal with him to kill the Doctor and Stockwood. She feels that she hates oppressively solicitous Harriett but has no idea why. As this is one of the modern Cusslers, another in the Fargo series, we're once again teamed up with the most successful archaeological duo since Andy McDermott's Chase and Wilde. They employ a small staff who work out of their fabulous home in La Jolla, California: Selma Wondrash as their chief researcher with contacts every where while Pete Jeffcoat and Wendy Corden are junior researchers. Please help to establish notability by citing reliable secondary sources that are independent of the topic and provide significant coverage of it beyond a mere trivial mention.
