How do optical gun sights work

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

Optical sights are devices designed to assist accurate aiming with firearms. The general principle of operation of optical aiming devices is based on aligning a reticle or a sight with the intended target to ensure accurate hit. However, constructions and exact principles of each sight type vary.

It´s festival time again!

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

After a break of almost two years due to the pandemic, the big summer festivals are taking place again. Long overdue! This also applies to the twin festivals Southside and Hurricane, which took place for the 23rd time last weekend (17.06.-19.06.) in idyllic Neuhausen ob Eck in Baden-Württemberg. For three days, the contemplative airfield on the outskirts of the town once again became the epicentre of the pop world, where around 65,000 exuberant festivalgoers were able to temporarily leave...

A play on perspectives rejuvenates the harp

A play on perspectives rejuvenates the harp

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

There can be few instruments as universally identifable as the harp, either by sight or more pertinently, sound. Indeed, it has a special place in my country's history, where since the 13th century, it has been considered the heraldic symbol of Ireland. It, perhaps more than most other extant instruments, symbolises a bygone era, one of bards and royalty, fairytales and fantasy. In many respects, the harp delicately sanitises and romantises our imagination of what was essentially a past whose...

Germany online dating just got a facelift

Germany online dating just got a facelift

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

The Germany online dating scene is woefully lacking in two main areas - price and flexibility. German professionals, as well as the large number of foreign professionals moving to Germany, find they are being stung by the country's inadequate consumer protection laws, when related to online dating portals. Many are finding themselves locked into contracts they did not realise they had to cancel during a tight window of opportunity - a very ruthless strategy employed by many companies here. This...

BR Volleys shorten final series

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

The contrast between Cédric Énard and Mark Lebedev could not have been greater on Saturday evening. At the third final match in the Max-Schmeling-Halle, Énard, coach of the BR Volleys, already looked tense before the start of the match and repeatedly consulted his co-trainer during the duel. Lebedev from VfB Friedrichshafen, on the other hand, looked relaxed, grinned from time to time and didn't seem to let anything upset him. No wonder: After two defeats in the "best-of-five" series, Énard...

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

The German basketball players have fulfilled their dream of the Olympics with an impressive energetic performance.

German U21 wins European Football Championship

February 7, 2025 • 12:00 AM

The German U-21 national team fulfilled a dream in Ljubljana on Sunday evening that not even its notoriously optimistic coach Stefan Kuntz believed in a few months ago. But when it came down to it at the European Championship finals in Hungary and Slovenia, the best junior selection of the German Football Association (DFB), which has improved from game to game, as it always has since Stefan Kuntz has been its head coach, captured the hearts of German soccer fans who have not been spoiled by the...
