Mike Clark – författare

Although most children''s books contain a main character, My Writing Spot does not. By not creating a title character, author Mike Clark intentionally forces the reader of this magical book to insert him/herself into the adventure. Young writers (our future authors) will love the notion of traveling the world over to find the perfect place to write a book - in hopes of ending a case of writer''s block. The rhyming verses that Mike Clark has constructed read with ease, and flow with a rhythmic beauty.

Adopting Web Services will affect many processes within any organization. To throw light on the most important issues, we have commissioned Experts in the Industry to share their insights. The resultant papers cover a broad spectrum from architecture to business strategies without diverting into deep technological fashions. Each study in the collection will answer specific business challenges thrown up by Web Service architectures. Before changing, commissioning, or evaluating a Web Service initiative, all IT Managers, System Architects, Lead Developers, and Business Visionaries should study and reference this book.

Situated on the south side of the Firth of Forth, the port of Leith, Edinburgh, is a major harbour for warships and cruise liners. Over hundreds of years it has been a trading port and a military dockyard. With Rosyth Dockyard situated further west, this busy waterway has two historically-important destinations for vessels and over time, many vessels were sunk during storms, failed to avoid collisions or were wartime victims of U-boats or aircraft.From Leith Docks the river widens forming a huge estuary filled with volcanic islands and submerged pinnacles that are blasted by fierce tidal streams, providing an opportunity for some fantastic scenic diving. This is also the final resting place of hundreds of shipwrecks, many of which are of especial historical importance. For the diver there is so much to explore in these new and exciting deeper wrecks that have the added attraction of being little known. These wrecks include an aircraft carrier, a German light cruiser that saw action at the Battle of Jutland, aircraft and even steam-powered submarines are all there waiting to be dived.Unlike the well-documented and dived River Clyde wrecks on the west coast, or those in the English Channel, these in the Firth of Forth are rarely mentioned - although many lie within a 20-mile radius of Edinburgh. The author has dived all the 100 sites and wrecks in the book and as a professional underwater photographer has provided truly atmospheric images that capture the special identity of these East coast wrecks and reefs. As well as his detailed knowledge of the sites, the author has also given his recommendations for dive sites, including their GPS positions, safety, and skill level required. Practical information such as dive centres, dive boats, accommodation and onshore activities is also included. This guide will help divers select the best dives to suit local weather conditions and to find the best scenic sites. It includes all the new and exciting dive sites recently found in areas such as Burntisland, North Berwick, Dunbar, St. Abbs and Eyemouth and information on how best to dive them - an absolute must for divers visiting this area!
