Sport View for October
For those of you keeping score at home, my preseason picks for the World Series were in fact Anaheim over Houston. Up until a week ago it wasn’t looking the least bit likely, now it’s at least possible (I will admit maybe not probable). But I do...
The Value of Observation
The beginner must learn to look with eyes that see. Occurrences of apparently little importance at the moment may, after consideration, assume proportions of great value. The taking of an insect, for instance, may mean nothing more than a rising...

Never go diving without a magnetic compass
A magnetic compass is an indispensable device which divers should always carry and be able to consult while they dive. The compass might make the difference for a lost diver allowing him to find the shore, which he couldn't do without it. Having a magnetic compass is crucial at the moment of wishing to know where we are while being at the water.
Whenever a diver is checking on his equipment and making sure he has everything he needs, one of the first things he should check is for his compass. A diver should never go into the sea without having this device with him. It doesn't matter if it is an experienced diver or not, any one could get lost if they didn't have a magnetic compass with them.
Using a magnetic compass is not as easy as it might seem and it might take some practice before the diver is able to use it and read it properly. Actually, many divers tend to feel like they don't need to learn or practice with their compass, and they don't find out their mistake until they are into the water and need
the help of this device.
Any sea related sport requires a compass as an important piece of equipment. It is fundamental for navigators to use compasses and consult them, and actually they could not practice their activity without the information which these devices provide. Actually, a compass turns into a safety device due to the importance of the help it gives for those who consult it while being at the sea, whether they are navigating, diving, or practicing any other related activity.
It is very easy to get lost while being at the sea, and having a compass might be the only way to learn where we are and in which direction we should move. When all we have around us is sea and it looks all alike, there might be no way for us to know where we should go. Therefore, having a magnetic compass and learning how to properly follow its indications is vital for all divers.
