Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1: Appearance Chapter 2: Behavior Chapter 3: Environment Conclusion Author Bio Bonus Dinosaur Content Introduction to Dinosaurs Facts about Dinosaurs Dinosaur Extinction Dinosaur Fossils Dinosaur Eggs Dinosaur Names Dinosaur Diet Feathered Dinosaurs Plant Eating Dinosaurs The Weirdest Dinosaurs The Deadliest Dinosaurs Flying Dinosaurs Kinds of Dinosaurs The Biggest Dinosaurs The Smallest Dinosaurs Author Bio Publisher Introduction Greetings young reader! Today we are going to take a step back in time and enter a long-gone age. 1.5 million years ago there lived thousands of animals that are now extinct. "Extinct" means that they no longer exist. These extinct animals are some of the most intriguing and awe-inspiring animals that have existed on our planet. Their colossal size, strange characteristics, and mysterious disappearance make them inherently worthy of study and interest. Even more than these reasons, the study of these ancient animals itself is an incredible adventure which requires intense thought and a vivid imagination. The study of ancient animals helps you to appreciate just how mysterious and amazing our planet really is. Our planet supports not only us and the animals that live today, but it even supported creatures as gigantic and strange as the dinosaurs- just think how cool that is! I hope that you bring a spirit of openness and wonder to your study of ancient animals, and that you come to appreciate the mystery and value of the natural world. The animal we are going to talk about is a species of giant shark called Megalodon that lived during a period which coincided with the Age of the Mammals. We are going to discuss all this and more in the chapters that follow. The Megalodon was the largest predator to ever exist on the planet earth. It is a popular animal because of its immense size, power, and because it is a shark! We know what we know about ancient animals from a variety of sources including fossils, biology, and other scientific disciplines. Fossils are the ancient remains of the dinosaurs, the most familiar being their bones. Biological science is the study of life in general, but many scientists compare the ancient animals to modern day animals to support their theories. The fossils of the Megalodon are mostly relegated to its teeth. We have very few other Megalodon fossils and we will talk about this later. Before a talk about extinct animals can take place it is important that we discuss the theory of evolution. Evolutionary theory supposes that all the animals we know and see today are the direct descendants of animals that existed millions of years ago. The dinosaurs and other creatures that existed millions of years ago either died out or gradually changed into different animals. For instance, birds are considered to be surviving dinosaurs because their dinosaur ancestors survived the dinosaur extinction event (we will discuss this later). The sharks we know today are descended from the Megalodon and other related mega-sharks.

Table of Contents Introduction The Right Soil for Your Plants A Bit of Sand Wanted Right Now! Should I or Should I Not Buy Garden Potted Soil? No Heating/Sterilizing Pots, Pans, and Saucers... Proper Drainage Re-potting and Potting your Plants Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction This book is for all the people who have always wished to have a garden of their own. But perhaps, due to lack of space outdoors, or maybe a lack of chance to get an opportunity to start gardening, they have not managed to start up on this soul satisfying activity, until now. Somewhere in the 1850s up to the 1900s, children were encouraged in schools to grow gardens under the close supervision of their teachers. That is because it was taken for granted that there was plenty of land outside, where gardening could be taught to the tiny tots, and thus, they could learn all about the delights of gardening outbuildings, at a very young age. For many of these children, gardening became a pleasant activity when they grew up, because they were so used to doing things in the garden, since childhood. But as time went by, and school curriculums changed, teachers began to concentrate more on teaching children ABC's and 123's, rather than encouraging them in outdoor activities. Outdoor activities began to be restricted only to physical training classes and exercises and gardening took a backseat. At home, these children probably did not learn anything about gardening, because their own family members did not have any interest in grubbing in the soil. In fact, even today, if a city child who has never been exposed to gardening is taken into a garden, given a trowel or three-pronged fork and told to dig in the mud, he might consider it to be a very messy business!

Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1The Gentle Giant Chapter 2 An Amazing Horse Chapter 3 A Few Suffolk Punch Facts Conclusion Nature's Great Wonders Author Bio Introduction "Majestic. Calm temperament. Hard worker. Beautiful. Energetic. Willing to serve." *** The Suffolk Punch is an amazing horse with kind eyes and a willing spirit. However, unlike other horses, it is not well known. Have you ever heard of the Suffolk Punch before? Maybe not! This beautiful horse goes by many names like Suffolk Horse and Suffolk Sorrel. As a draft horse, they are tall, strong, and have a beautiful Chestnut coat. But the spelling of the color is different than you might think. Instead of Chestnut, it is spelled CHESNUT with a missing letter T. So, the color is Chesnut and not chestnut! As mentioned, the Suffolk Punch is a draft horse. This is a horse that "draws" or "hauls" something. It is also called a work horse or heavy horse, because it works hard and pulls heavy loads. However, these types of horses are strong, docile, easy to work with and very patient. The more recent history of the Suffolk Punch goes back many years to World War I. During those years, this horse became a work horse on big farms. One reason why farmers liked this horse so much was because of its personality. Their calm and patient nature was exactly what farmers needed to help them work better. Farmers also loved this horse because they are hard workers!

Table of Contents Introduction Benefits of Green Walls Different Paneling Structures Loose Medium Coir Mat/Felt Mat Medium Polyurethane Sheet Medium Structural Mediums Hanging Containers Shoe Holder Racks How to Make a Trellis Using Moss and Coco fiber Best Plant Choices Self Watering Planters How to Make a Self Watering Planter - Subirrigation Planter Water Circulation in Green Walls Final Tips for Green Wall Planting Hydroponics Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction How many times have you gone into a neighbor's garden and admired one of his walls, completely or even partially covered with lots and lots of greenery? Or you may have gone to a place to see some old buildings and their harsh, bleak and stony exterior may have been softened with lots of ivy. This book is going to tell you all about vertical gardening, where you are going to be using a wall as a support. A green wall is always going to need a way in which you can water the plants so that you have living green walls. These vertical gardens are going to be the focus of everybody's envy. The next time they come visiting your home, just point them out to that green growth covering the sides of your stone or brick pride and joy. So what is the difference between a green wall and a green façade? A green façade is going to be many plants planted at the base of the wall, and covering the wall up with the help of a trellis or any other sort of support, like ropes. The plants are going to be rooted in this soil, which may be on the ground, or maybe in containers. Metal and wire supports, especially for climbing plants can provide creepers with a firm hold. But a complete green wall is going to have a number of necessary growing mediums like soil, which are placed on the wall's face. So you can have these containers either hanging at intervals off the green wall, or have your plants growing from niches and cracks in the wall, - this is how plants grow naturally in the wilderness, especially when they are looking for any sort of space from which to grow, especially on stone walls. You can have a green wall inside your house or outside it, depending on the weather. You can either attach it to a solid wall, or you can have it, freestanding all alone on its own. In ancient times, it is said that one of the seven greater ancient wonders of the World, the Hanging Gardens of Nineveh - absolutely not Babylon, such a site never existed at all - were made of a number of plants hanging down walls in different stages on a pyramid like ziggurat structure. As this was totally plain and desert area, one would wonder where the water came from to water all those plants? According to historians, water systems brought water down from the mountains and channels were cut into rows, so the water could go straight into the plant beds. I would not be surprised if a number of these plants were grown in water, as in modern-day hydroponics. Because what goes around comes around, and I am certain that the gardeners would have looked at other mediums in which they could plant plants, apart from soil. We are so used to seeing flowerbeds, spreading all over the land, horizontally, that we have not bothered much about vertical gardening. That is because instinctively our minds are set to just one way of gardening, since childhood. Make a hole in the ground, place the plant in it, stamp the soil down until the plant is firm, moisturize the soil, and then keep caring for your plant until you get an excellent harvest.

Dachshund - Dog Books for Kids Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1 Early History Chapter 2 Fascinating Features & Care Chapter 3 Amazing Dachshund facts Conclusion A little-big Companion! Author Bio Introduction "A dog is man's best friend, and vice versa." -Anonymous Dachshunds are beautiful little dogs with a big personality! They have a long body, short little legs and belong to the hound family group. Dogtime.com refers to them as "short on leg but long on personality." Aren't they cute? At the start of their history, Dachshunds were busy chasing and flushing out badgers. This skill applied to burrow dwellers, which are animals that dig holes or tunnels. Normal size Dachshunds were bred for this singular purpose, but the shorter size breed was another story. They were better at chasing rabbits, so they were bred for this purpose. Some even hunted in packs to track bigger animals. Today, Dachshunds have other abilities apart from game hunting. They are found in many conformation shows and living at home as family pets. Their unique personality and versatile nature is very appealing and they make great family companions! Their coat can be a unique blend of colors. Some are single colored or dappled, which is single colored with spots. The primary color is red. Black and tan is the most common color. There is even solid black and solid chocolate. For a long time, Dachshunds were considered favorites, but especially since the 1950s! Can you believe this little dog has kept its fame for such a long time? No doubt the Dachshunds high intelligence and loving affection has been a great part of their fame. But don't let their large eyes and soulful glances fool you. A Dachshund is not the easiest dog to train! And if you leave them to their own devices you may be surprised at their stubborn nature. Despite this, these little dogs are big on heart. And because of their variety, colors, and skills, there is a Dachshund for almost everyone! For these reasons and many more, Dachshunds are highly recommended as a faithful companion.

Today, we live in a world that makes us believe that outer accomplishments and attainments can give us what we want. Yet, every now and then our experiences illustrate that nothing external can entirely satisfy the unfathomable yearning within, for more. Regardless of the time, nevertheless, we discover ourselves endeavoring toward that which always seems to lie just outside our reach. We are always focusing on doing rather than being, in action rather than sentience and awareness. It is difficult for us to imagine a state of far-reaching serenity and tranquility in which thoughts and feelings cease to dance in eternal motion. There is no blinking the fact, that through such a state of peacefulness, we can trace a level of happiness and understanding difficult to attain otherwise. Yoga is a simple course of reversing the usual outward flow of energy and realization. This is so the mind develops a vibrant center of direct insight, which is no longer reliant on the imperfect senses, but proficient enough to actually experience the Truth. The next sections discuss yoga, its goals, benefits, and plans in detail.

Well, everybody knows that throughout the dawn of man's existence, as well as throughout history, bread has been the symbol of an old-time kitchen and hearth which has formed the warm and be the center of a human home. Ancient tomb carvings depict planting, harvesting the grain, grinding, mixing of the bread and baking it. This head of wheat was considered to be so sacred that it was a decoration on the weapons and shields of great warriors and kings. Even Gods and goddesses, especially the Greek goddess Demeter whose Egyptian equivalent was the goddess Isis was the goddess of harvesting with wheat as her symbol. According to the Arabs, wheat and other grains like corn, rye, barley, oats, millet and maize came down from heaven in 7 handkerchiefs and it has always to be respected since Allah himself took so much care to keep these precious cereals, clean and pure, while handing them to man. That is why they call bread, God's special gift. So it was only when human beings found out that wheat was one of the grasses which could be kept for a long time without spoiling in dry conditions, they started harvesting, storing and grinding it so that finely bread could be made from it.

Table of Contents Introduction Citrus for Good Health And Beauty Dental Problems Lemon Juice for Toothaches Liver Cleanser/Gallstones Remover Fever Remedy Healthy Tangerine Tea Natural Wrinkle Remover Natural Lemon Skin Balm Grapefruit Heartburn Cure Curing Diverticulitis and Diarrhea Lemons for Headaches And Migraines Traditional Lemon Garlic Honey Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction I was just looking through some ancient medical treatises, translated into English and I was astonished at the number of times references were made to lemons, citrus fruits, oranges, tangerines, and kumquats to help heal and cure a number of diseases. These treatises were Asian in origin, Thai, Corian, Japanese, and Indian. Then I went to the Middle East and found that those ancients used lemon juice, in copious quantities in order to make up the basic foundation of a number of medicines, while their beauties used lemon juice in order to beautify themselves and keep themselves lovely. So this book is going to tell you all about the power of citrus fruits, in helping to keep you lovely, youthful looking, healthy, and best of all, with a product readily visible and available at hand. Many of the citrus fruits are basically sun loving and that is the reason why when they began to be grown in Spain and Italy as well as sunny France, they were used just to keep the skin white. This was in the medieval times when health uses of lemons were not well known. However, in the late 17 century European sailors found out that after a long voyage, all they had to do was reach a sunny and tropical island, where there was plenty of lemongrass growing - this does not belong to the citrus family - or citrus fruit.

That is the reason why you may have skin tones, a shade or two lighter than the rest of your body because you have been bleaching it or slathering sunscreen lotion on it. Just go into the shower and do a careful survey of the rest of your body. You are going to be surprised to see parts of it which have been neglected for ages. In fact, let me admit it. I find rubbing and scrubbing the lower extremities below the knee, a big bore, because I have to bend over so much, to get to my knees, ankles and feet. Even sitting down and lifting them up in order to scrub them is a major headache. You may think this reason so absurd. According to me, I think it perfectly reasonable! Believe it or not, most of us have some silly excuse or reason to justify why we neglect major portions of our body, so much. That is why we have rough elbows and rough knees and perhaps neglected feet, especially the dead cells around the soles and so on. So this book is going to tell you many natural skin and body care tips and techniques, which you can use easily on your body. Remember your face may be your fortune, but the rest of your body is equally important. So remember to cherish it.

Sunlight Hibernation for Cactus Protecting Your Cactus in the Winter Planting Your Cactus Offsets How to grow Cacti from Cuttings Cactus as Food Diseases and pests Appendix Cactus clubs Author Bio Introduction For all those people who have confronted a prickly pear, at least once in their lives, cacti are boring spiny plants. Also, cactus plants have long been the subject of a superstition that any house, which has cactus growing in it is going to be filled up with strife and trouble and arguments. That is because of the spines of the cactus which are known as spikes promote ill feeling. There is something so odd about a cactus plant that it is often difficult until you grow them yourself to believe that these really belong to the plant kingdom. Historically, how many pioneer explorers of the desert areas in America saw them in the twilight and thought stories of monsters with their arms outstretched, and no heads, who turned into plants in the desert in the morning. No wonder, these giants which can grow up to 63 feet have always been the subject for legends. Even today, most of us are told tales about the cactus, which many of us half believe. Some of us have heard that cacti are poisonous. Other people are going to tell us that cacti flower only once in 100 years, and only when the area is subjected to rain. The first tale is totally and true. The second tale is also untrue because certain species of cacti will flower, almost every year, if given proper cultivation and care. Cactuses, also known as cacti belong to the family Opuntiaceae. Many of these plant varieties have lost true leaves, but they still have fluted and ribbed stems. The stems store water, and many of the desert varieties have very short growing time periods. Their periods of dormancy may be long, because many times, they have to go without water and rainfall for years, especially when they are growing in the Atacama Desert. Cactus originally are natives of the Americas, except for some species, which grow in Africa.

Oh, this is a fad of rich people, who want to show off." "Serious" gardeners did not bother much about expensive greenhouses at that time. Possibly they had reason because we were living in a climate where one did not need a greenhouse in order to grow everything we wished growing in our garden. We had plenty of sunshine, air, and rich organic soil. We did not have harsh winds and snowy winters. We did not need to pamper our plans so much, praying that they would survive in inclement weather. When I grew up and began to look at the gardens in other climates and in different corners of the earth, I began to understand and estimate the quality and value of a good greenhouse. So for all those people who are still under the impression that greenhouses are expensive to make and maintain, well, the answer is no! You just need to have some space in your garden. This is not only going to increase the interest of your garden, but is also going to add in its utility. Also, it is going to extend the range of plants, which you can cultivate to a very large extent, and if some of the glass is heated then your cultivation range is almost limitless.
