Disney Baby Lullaby: Favorite Sleepytime Songs for Baby and You $3.60 Lullabies lend themselves to woozy re-creations, a sort of endless repetition that flags under the weight of the concept (putting kids to bed for their much-needed sleep) and the lack of weight accorded to the music. You might expect a Disney lullaby collection to be on a par with the most mediocre collections, but this one is really a fine set. The tunes are standard–from the famous “Brahms Lull… |

A Christmas Gathering Of Leaves For The Little Ones, By Y. S. N. $21.19 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:Jaa’s §i80bdutt and its Chapter I. AM going to pay a visit to a lady who is very ill, Isa, and may perhaps be absent for some hours; be a ‘ good little girl whilst I am away, and do as nurse tells you. And be sure,” added Mrs. Percy, looking back anxiously, ” be sure not to go into the damp churchyard ; play in the garden till Jane can take you for a walk.” ” Tes, mamma,” said Isa readily. She was very thoughtless, but not usually self-willed; generally disposed to comply with her mamma’s wishes, but very frequently forgetful of what those wishes were. The garden in which she was playing was extremely pretty—full of gay flower-beds, and shaded by fine large trees, which had been planted many years before little Isabella had come into the world. And the house, too, looked quite as green and blooming as anything else in thegarden. It was Briston Rectory; not the Brixton near London, but a quiet little village far away from the bustle and noise of the world’s metropolis—a rural spot, where the lowliest cottage looks bright with the evergreen ivy and the snowy-blossomed myrtle. The rectory itself was anything but a cottage; yet not a brick was visible to the passer-by, who could not but notice the various shades of green from myrtle, ivy, Virginia creeper, and other climbing plants, which clothed both side and front of the building, even to the porch, making it look more like a triumphal arch of evergreens, than a substantial, pillared portico. It was as pretty a home as any little girl could wish for, but it was not Isa’s home. That was far away, in a bleak, dreary district in the north of England, where her father, who was a clergyman, held a living; but his little girl had been very ill, and the physicians thought her too delicate to live through the autumn |

Grandfather and Uncle Lancelot, of course, came in with their gratuitous advice, the one suggesting nasturtium beds with geraniums along the bordersâ?”the other slyly whispering that a boat trip from Savannah to Boston was no more than I deserved. Then, reaching home in this frame of mind, I was confronted with two very perplexing and unusual conditions. textit{Mignon was being played with great violence in the front parlorâ?”and all over the house was the scent of burnt yarn. “What’s up?” I demanded of mother, as she met me at the doorâ?”dressed in blue. “Everything seems mysterious and topsyturvy to-day! I believe if I were to go out to the cemetery I’d find the tombstones nodding and whispering to one another.” “Come in here!” she begged in a Santa Claus voice. I went into the parlor, then gave a little shriek. “Mother!” I have neglected to state, earlier in the narrative, that the one desire of my heart which doesn’t begin with H was a player-piano! It was there in the parlor, at that moment, shining, and singing its wordless song about the citron-flower land. “It’s the very one we’ve been textit{watching through the windows up-town,” she said in a delighted whisper. “But did you get it as a prize?” I inquired, walking into the dusky room and shaking hands with my betrothed, who rose from the instrument and made |

Confessions Of A Violinist $15.55 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:Ill AT THE CHATEAU DE MORTEBECK On returning from one of his many visits to England, my father heard that the little Chateau de Mortebeck, near Brussels, was for sale. We all went to see it, and liked it so much that he agreed to take it for a year or two on trial, with the option of purchase. It was in a lovely rustic spot, surrounded by great trees, with a little coppice-wood behind, where the nightingales sang every spring. The house, built in the old French style, was only one storey high, and had a wide, handsomely carved oak staircase, one of the finest I ever saw. There was a pretty lawn, with a small fountain in the centre, and lovely trumpet honeysuckles among the shrubs. This lawn, with its little flower-beds and shrubs, was surrounded on three sides by a large pond full of gold-fish and frogs. The chateau was situated just off the main road to Dilbeck, about three miles from Brussels ; and at night, in summer, travellers along this chausse’e could hear our frogs croakingfor about a mile, when the wind was in the right direction. During summer, also, a small black mosquito and swarms of gnats were very troublesome. We had mosquito-curtains to every bedroom window —without which there would be no hope of sleep at night. The unexpected death, in London, of a gentleman who had recently paid us a visit, was attributed partly to the swellings and discomfiture caused by the bites of these dreadful mosquitoes ! Here, I had to rise every morning before six, in order to walk to town and be at the University by eight o’clock, when the lectures began. Here, also, we had several delightful musical afternoons ; but my dear mother soon suffered from severe illness. She was attended, at first, by the King’s doctor (Dr. Chantrin), but he could not cure her. Finally, our |

But the real, the primary attraction of Moret lies less in its historic monuments and antiquated streets than in its chemins qui marchent, its ever reposeful water-ways.

Three hundred years later the town was taken by Henry V., and re-taken by Charles VII. a decade after.

July th. — There has been no rain since the day before Whitsunday, five weeks ago, which partly, but not entirely, accounts for the disappointment my beds have been. The dejected gardener went mad soon after Whitsuntide, and had to be sent to an asylum. He took to going about with a spade in one hand and a revolver in the other, explaining that he felt safer that way, and we bore it quite patiently, as becomes civilised beings who respect each other’s prejudices, until one day, when I mildly asked him to tie up a fallen creeper — and after he bought the revolver my tones in addressing him were of the mildest, and I quite left off reading to him aloud — he turned round, looked me straight in the face for the first time since he has been here, and said, ” Do I look like Graf X (a great local celebrity), or like a monkey ? ” After which there was nothing for it but to get him into an asylum as expeditiously as possible. There was no gardener to be had in his place, and I have only just succeeded in getting one; so that what with the drought, and theneglect, and the gardener’s madness, and my blunders, the garden is in a sad condition; but even in a sad condition it is the dearest place in the world, and all my mistakes only make me more determined to persevere. The long borders, where the rockets were, are looking dreadful. The rockets have done flowering, and, after the manner of rockets in other walks of life, have degenerated into sticks ; and nothing else in those borders intends to bloom this summer. The giant poppies I had planted out in them in April have either died ofF or remained quite small, and so have the columbines; |

Express [Expanded] $29.99 Rich in sonic detail, the neo-psychedelic Express offers a listening experience like no other album — guitars spiral to dizzying heights from beds of sound, arrangements swirl, songs change and mutate. “Kundalini Express” typifies Love and Rockets’ approach, chugging along for several verses before breaking open and ascending into the heavens; Anglo-fied Eastern religious imagery and philosophy predominate lyrically, and in tandem with the psychedelic music, offer an almost quasi-religious experience. John A. Rivers (who also co-produced Love and Rockets’ first album) outdoes himself with the sound on this disc, offering a huge, unique canvas for the band to paint its sound on: Crystalline acoustic guitars cut through thick, distorted tones, and the bass is an equal player to the guitars and drums. “Yin and Yang (The Flower Pot Man)” is ecstatically upbeat, offering a propulsive rhythm, flailing guitars, and insistent bass — a compulsively danceable and bliss-inducing track. “An American Dream,” meanwhile, is an anthem of sorts, with distinct sections setting apart the moods of hope, disillusionment, and acceptance. ~ Jonathan Ball, Rovi |

Not illustrated. Excerpt: Floral Park, New York – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The area that is now Floral Park once marked the western edge of the great Hempstead Plains, and by some reports was initially known as Plainfield. Farms and tiny villages dominated the area through the 1870s when the development of the Long Island Rail Road and Jericho Turnpike cut through the area. Hinsdale had more than two dozen flower farms after the Civil War. The present-day village of Floral Park was once called East Hinsdale. In 1874 John Lewis Childs arrived in the area to work for C.L. Allen as a seed seller. After building his own seed and bulb business and starting America’s first seed catalog business, Childs bought a great deal of land in the area. To promote his own business and the local horticultural industry, Childs named the local streets after flowers and renamed the area Floral Park. The expansion of the Floral Park Post Office and nearby village businesses are attributed solely to the success of Childs’ business. When the local Post Office took the name Floral Park, the Long Island Rail Road followed suit by changing the name of the East Hinsdale station to Floral Park in 1888. Formerly part of Queens, Floral Park became part of the new county of Nassau in 1899, and it was incorporated as a village in 1908. Childs served as its first president starting that year. In 1903 the village boasted more than 200 acres (0.81 km) of Childs’ flower beds. The massive volume of his mail order business grew the local post office to such an extent that it drew comparisons with the post offices of Chicago, Baltimore, and Boston. The western village boundary is the border of New York City. Floral Park is located at . According to the United States Census Bureau, t… More: |

Fluid Mulch Sprayed On The Field And Overlaid With Pigmented Latex $71.99 To study the effect of reflecting mulches on growth pattern and yield components of eggplant (Solanum melongena L., cv. ‘Millionaire’), beds were treated with synthetic latex film as a mulch base. Colored pigments derived from oil-based paints in black, white, red, blue, yellow and silver were sprayed on the mulch base to provide differential coloration. Each experimental unit included three rows of 7.3 meters with eight plants per row. Each treatment was replicated in four blocks at two separate locations. Plants grown on silver-pigmented beds produced significantly greater fruit numbers and total fruit weight than other treatments. After eight harvests, up to 236% yield increase was observed in silver plots compared to the control. Initial flower and fruit set formations before harvest were significantly higher in silver plots compared to other treatments. Non-significant differences were observed with measurements of plant height and total dry weight of shoot and root within the treatments. It is assumed that altering microenvironment around the plants by mulch surface color is responsible for this variation. |
