On the 100th anniversary of Titanic's sinking, National Geographic revisits the romance, glory, and tragedy of this tremendous ship and presents an insider’s look at the new findings about the passengers and scientific study of the wreck site. For 100 years the great ship Titanic has rested in its final grave on the ocean floor, lost to deep ocean darkness until its 1985 discovery by National Geographic’s Bob Ballard. Relive the spell-binding tragic final hours of the ship in a detailed retelling of the famous story and learn the personal stories of lesser-known passengers, including the “guarantees.” For the first time since its discovery, Ballard travels to Belfast to interview descendants of the ship builders and the “guarantee group”—the ill-fated men who traveled on the ship’s first voyage to assure its seaworthiness. Understand underwater mapping techniques that have brought Titanic’s debris field into high resolution, and get a glimpse of current deep ocean scientific research on the wreckage and the future of underwater exploration.

In THE DOG WHO KNEW TOO MUCH, Chet and Bernie attend a P.I. convention to try and make some new (and hopefully lucrative) connections. It's the sort of thing Bernie hates, but he's got to do something to get his business back on track. The head of a big international security company seems impressed with The Little Detective Agency and hires them for what appears to be an easy and well-paid assignment. Things take an unexpected turn and all sorts of trouble ensues. Tensions are further strained when a stray puppy who looks an awful lot like Chet turns up. So does Dylan McKnight, Suzie Sanchez's former boyfriend. With Chet and Bernie both dealing with affairs of the heart at the same time they are facing an unexpectedly tricky case, it's a good thing that our two intrepid investigators are looking out for each other-as they always do.

What exactly is a Bernedoodle? It's cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle, and according to fans of this newcomer to the hybrid world, it's downright adorable. Sherry Rupke of SwissRidge Kennels was the first breeder to deliberately cross Bernese Mountain Dogs and Poodles. Rupke loved everything about the gorgeous and sweet-natured Bernese, except for the short-lived breed's genetic propensity for cancer. Plus it sheds. And it can be a little stubborn. Rupke knew from experience that adding Poodle to the hybrid equation could create a intelligent, lively, healthy and low- to non-shedding dog that fits the average person's lifestyle. At least, that's what happens when a breeder takes her work as seriously as Rupke does. Over the past decade, she's built her Bernedoodle program carefully to ensure that each scrupulously health-checked breeding dog has an impeccable pedigree, a calm temperament, and great conformation. In "Bernedoodles: A Head to Tail Guide," Rupke takes readers on a journey from her early days of breeding purebred dogs to establishing her highly successful hybrid program. This comprehensive, easy-to-read and entertaining book covers everything you need to know about this amazing hybrid. Since Bernedoodles can vary significantly in size, build, coloring, and even personality, prospective owners need advice from someone who knows the breed inside out. Who better than the breeder who created them?* Learn how to find a responsible, reputable breeder who can help you choose the Bernedoodle pup that best suits your family and lifestyle. * Educate yourself about the basics, from housebreaking to care and feeding, health and wellness, and grooming. * Discover the best techniques for training Bernedoodles (and any dog) with the help of Rupke's partner, Lucas Mucha. * Enjoy anecdotes and testimonials from owners of SwissRidge Bernedoodles, along with stunning photos. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate, trainable, and allergy-friendly dog that will happily join you for any activity, the Bernedoodle is the hybrid for you-and this book will help you find and raise your new canine best friend.
