Download or read book Chasing Monarchs written by Robert Michael Pyle and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-29 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVAlthough no one had ever followed North American monarch butterflies on their annual southward journey to Mexico and California, in the 1990s there were well-accepted assumptions about the nature and form of the migration. But to Robert Michael Pyle, a naturalist with long experience in monarch conservation, the received wisdom about the butterflies’ long journey just didn’t make sense. In the autumn of 1996 he set out to uncover the facts, to pursue the tide of “cinnamon sailors” on their long, mysterious flight. Chasing Monarchs chronicles Pyle’s 9,000-mile journey to discover firsthand the secrets of the monarchs’ annual migration. Part road trip, part outdoor adventure, and part natural history study, Pyle’s book overturns old theories and provides insights both large and small regarding monarch butterflies, their biology, and their spectacular migratory travels. Since the book’s first publication, its controversial conclusions have been fully confirmed, and monarchs are better understood than ever before. The Afterword for this volume includes not only updated information on the myriad threats to monarch butterflies, but also various efforts under way to ensure the future of the world’s most amazing butterfly migration./div

Download or read book Benjamin and Chlo written by HORACIO JR and published by Horacio JR. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alright, listen up, folks. Let me spin you a yarn, a love story that will melt your butter and have you cheering for these star-crossed sweethearts like they're at the Olympics. Now, imagine Paris, see? Sun setting like a fiery tango dancer, painting the sky in shades of orange and longing. There's this girl, Chloé, eyes like sapphires and a spirit as sharp as a well-honed blade. In her hand, a crumpled letter, whispering promises turned to dust, signed with the very name that sends shivers down her spine – Benjamin. Distance, they thought, would be a whisper between their hearts. More like a chasm, right? Letters, supposed to be bridges, turned into tombstones of silence. The meadows they shared, filled with laughter and sun, now echoed with an emptiness that gnawed at her soul. But Chloé, she ain't built for wilting. That glint in her eyes, that's not tears, that's defiance. This ain't over, not by a long shot. This is just a tangled knot in their tapestry, waiting to be unraveled. Meanwhile, across the salty ocean, under a sky that's more green than blue, Benjamin wrestles with his own demons. His letters, once lifelines, are swallowed by the void, unanswered, unloved. His heart, a field where their love once bloomed, feels fallow now, haunted by phantoms of betrayal. But just like the stubborn weeds that push through concrete, hope refuses to die. He sees Chloé everywhere, not in the missing letters, but in the sunlight dappling leaves, in the rain singing on his windowpane. Her spirit, a whisper woven into his very being, won't be silenced. So, you see, their story, even though it's stretched thin by miles and deceit, it's still playing out in harmony. Chloé, in the concrete jungle, unravels the threads of lies, her love a compass guiding her in the dark. Benjamin, under the sun, cultivates his dreams, his success a silent serenade to the love that still burns bright within him.

Download or read book Linda Goodman s Sun Signs written by Linda Goodman and published by RosettaBooks. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling author’s classic guide to astrology: “What makes Sun Signs different is that much of the writing is done with humor” (The Boston Globe). Before 1968, astrology as we know it had a very limited following in the United States and around the world. The publication of Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs changed that forever. Newspapers began running astrology columns, and soon, an increasing number of people knew their sign (as well as yours) and began to study astrological tendencies. Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs quickly established itself as the worldwide introductory bible to astrology for beginner and expert alike. The book’s simple organizational technique made it easy for everyone to follow and understand themselves and others, sign-by-sign. This updated edition of the groundbreaking classic is an enjoyable way to discover the world of astrology today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The words of her father echo in a young girl's head: Never want what you can never have. Born on the day of the Mexican Goddess of Grass, Malinalli, she takes that name until 1519 when she begins her new Christian life as Marina, one of twenty slaves given to Conquistador Hernán Cortés after he defeats the natives of Tabasco. Having been sold into slavery by a wicked stepfather, Malinalli has learned Mayan as well as her native tongue Nahuatl. When Cortés discovers she can speak two languages, he makes her his interpreter and keeps her constantly at his side. His soldiers admire her and give her the respectful title of Don?a Marina (Lady Marina). Later, as she learns Spanish and becomes trilingual, she helps Cortés form alliances among Nahuatl speakers who hate Moctezuma II, a tyrant who has waged wars on neighboring tribes to obtain captives for human sacrifice. Cortés and his coalition of Spanish conquistadors and Tlaxcalan warriors lead a fierce attack upon the Aztec empire, conquer Moctezuma II, and thus change the fate of Mexico and Spain forever. Although Cortés comes to love Marina, and she brings out his best qualities, he allows her to marry a hidalgo lover for her future protection. Yet Cortés and Malinalli (also called La Malinche) become a team that rebuilds a devastated nation, shapes its Christian destiny, and leaves a proud legacy for two nations that enriched each other even as they tried to destroy each other.
