The Wine in the Sky Questionnaire by Anonim Pdf

Wine has always been as much about discovering tastes as it is a ritual of sharing. Taste and smell are two of the most powerful senses affected by the atmosphere in which they are experienced. When it comes to tasting wines in the air, these two senses work together, and the differences observed from tasting the same vintages while on the ground are immense. VistaJet Founder and Chairman Thomas Flohr realized that there was no practical guide to selecting the right wines to drink up in the skies. In the spirit of sharing, Flohr invited some of the world's foremost experts to sample wines with him, first at a vineyard on the ground and then in the sky, to specifically understand how flavors change at altitude. The result of the conversations and discoveries made on that trip is collected in this book. The Wine in the Sky Questionnaire seeks to serve as a friendly suggestion for tasting, serving, and transporting wine on global travels. AUTHOR: For eighteen years, Tom "Wine Chap" Harrow has written regularly about wines and winemakers for a variety of luxury titles, put together fine wine portfolios for clients around the world, and organised extraordinary wine and gastronomic experiences with luxury partners that have been described by the Financial Times as, "Sideways on steroids."

When Galaxies Were Born by Richard S. Ellis Pdf

One of today’s leading astronomers takes readers inside the decades-long search for the first galaxies and the origin of starlight Astronomers are like time travelers, scanning the night sky for the outermost galaxies that first came into being when our universe was a mere fraction of its present age. When Galaxies Were Born is Richard Ellis’s firsthand account of how a pioneering generation of scientists harnessed the world’s largest telescopes to decipher the history of the universe and witness cosmic dawn, the time when starlight first bathed the cosmos and galaxies emerged from darkness. In a remarkable career spanning more than forty years, Ellis has made some of the most spectacular discoveries in modern cosmology. He has traveled the world to conduct observations in locales as beautiful and remote as the Australian outback, the Canary Islands, Hawaii, and the Chilean desert. In this book, he brings to life a golden age of astronomy, describing the triumphs and the technical setbacks, the rivalries with competing teams, and the perennial challenge of cloudy nights. Ellis reveals the astonishing progress we have made in building ever larger and more powerful telescopes, and provides a tantalizing glimpse of cosmic dawn. Stunningly illustrated with a wealth of dramatic photos, When Galaxies Were Born is a bold scientific adventure enlivened by personal insights and anecdotes that enable readers to share in the thrill of discovery at the frontiers of astronomy.

The Thunderproof Sky by Loretta Lost Pdf

After being tortured to the brink of death, Sophie’s carefully built life crumbles to cinders... Cole is there to pick up the broken pieces, but her psyche might be fractured into too many pieces. Scarlett, Snow, Serena, Sibyl and more, are all swirling around inside one damaged mind, and Cole becomes uncertain whether the woman he loves will ever be whole again.

Cole and Scarlett believe they have finally found a place they can call home. But with the truth about the death of Cole’s parents out in the open, it turns out that some dangers can follow a person to every corner of the planet, and even the ends of the earth…

Promised Valley Rebellion by Ron Fritsch Pdf

In Ron Fritsch’s four Promised Valley novels, prehistoric farmers inhabit a fertile river valley they believe their gods promised them in return for their good behavior and obedience. Their enemies, hunters roaming the mostly barren hills beyond the mountains enclosing the valley, believe their gods gave it to them. Promised Valley Rebellion, the first book in the Promised Valley series, is a story of forbidden love. The farmers’ king refuses to allow the marriage of the coming-of-age prince to the daughter of the farmer who saved the king’s life in the last war with the hunters. Her brother decides he has to help his sister and the prince, his boyhood friend, correct the flagrant injustice. That decision leads them and their allies into a youthful rebellion against the king and his officials, who rule the kingdom from their bluff-top town. The far more numerous farmers in the villages below, who despise the officials but not the king, and who admire the prince, are in a position to determine whether the rebels will succeed or face execution for treason. Kirkus says “the story encourages the reader to ponder the universal elements of the tale” and calls the prehistoric world of the novel a “strange, primitive world that feels winningly real.” The US Review of Books says the novel “is a good tale that feels real, with a strong promise and a good twist at the end,” and a “good book to read by the fire in wintertime.” Promised Valley Rebellion is the winner of the gold medal in the Literary Fiction category of the 2010 eLit Awards competition. Promised Valley Rebellion is the first-place winner in the Gay, Lesbian and Transgender Fiction category of the 2011 National Indie Excellence Awards competition. Promised Valley Rebellion is the winner of the silver medal in the Historical Fiction category, and a finalist in the General Fiction category, of the 2011 Readers Favorite awards competition.
