  Miracle Cures: Saints, Pilgrimage, and the Healing Powers of Belief , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 444min

  Iconic images of medieval pilgrims, such as Chaucer's making their laborious way to Canterbury, conjure a distant time when faith was the only refuge of the ill and infirm and thousands traveled great distances to pray for healing. Why, then, in an age of advanced biotechnology and medicine, do millions still go on pilgrimages? Why do journeys to important religious shrines - such as Lourdes, Compostela, Fátima, and Medjugorje - constitute a major industry? In Miracle Cures, Robert A. Scott explores these provocative questions and finds that pilgrimage continues to offer answers for many. Its benefits can range from a demonstrable improvement in health to complete recovery. Using research in biomedical and behavioral science, Scott examines accounts of miracle cures at medieval, early modern, and contemporary shrines. He inquires into the power of relics, apparitions, and the transformative nature of sacred journeying and shines new light on the roles belief, hope, and emotion can play in healing. ungekürzt.

  Remote Sensing Application in Agriculture

  Soil salinity is one of the fastest growing threatsthat affects agriculture and food production.Detecting and evaluating the impact of soil salinitywith traditional methods has been a laborious and time consuming job, recently methods for detectingsoil salinity have improved greatly thanks to newtechnology. This book describes methods to detectsoil salinity levels in agricultural lands based oncrop conditions and Evapotranspiration (ET) usingsatellite imagery. Quantifying ET accurately has always been consideredone of the most challenging and expensive tasks, mostof the methods currently used to achieve this taskdepend on point measurements that do not reflect thespatial variability of ETin agriculture fields. This book describes thedevelopment of a surface energy balance-based model(Remove Sensing of ET - ReSET) that handles thespatial variability in ET, the model estimates ETbased on remotely sensed data using satelliteimagery. ET is estimated for each pixel in the imagetherefore displaying the spatial variability of ETeven within fields. Relationships between ET and soilsalinity levels in agriculture fields were developedfor several crops.

The nobles have the power, and crossing them is always risky. And although love is a wonderful thing, sometimes the best decision is to walk away. Because no matter how untouchable or deadly you may be, the stretchers have other plans. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Pacey.

  Unknown Waters: A First-Hand Account of the Historic Under-Ice Survey of the Siberian Continental Shelf by USS Queenfish , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 476min

  This audiobook tells the story of the brave officers and men of the nuclear attack submarine USS Queenfish (SSN-651), who made the first survey of an extremely important and remote region of the Arctic Ocean. The unpredictability of deep-draft sea ice, shallow water, and possible Soviet discovery all played a dramatic part in this fascinating 1970 voyage. Covering 3,100 miles over a period of some 20 days at a laborious average speed of 6.5 knots or less, the attack submarine carefully threaded its way through innumerable underwater canyons of ice and over irregular seafloors, at one point becoming entrapped in an "ice garage". Only cool thinking and skillful maneuvering of the nearly 5,000-ton vessel enabled a successful exit. The most hazardous phase of the journey began 240 nautical miles south of the North Pole with a detailed hydrographic survey of an almost totally uncharted Siberian shelf, from the northwestern corner of the heavily glaciated Severnaya Zemlya Archipelago to the Bering Strait via the shallow, thickly ice-covered Laptev, East Siberian, and Chukchi seas. The skipper of the Queenfish had been trained and selected by Admiral Hyman Rickover and, inspired by this polar experience, McLaren became one of the world's foremost Arctic scientists, studying first at Cambridge University and then obtaining his doctorate in physical geography of the Polar Regions from the University of Colorado at Boulder. ungekürzt.
