What Did the Earth Look Like Before Dinosaurs?
Millions of years ago, the Earth looked very different. All the continents merged into one, full of life, both beautiful and terrible. When you think of prehistoric times, you might imagine a T-Rex rampaging through the jungle with its razor-sharp teeth, but even before the dinosaurs, other giant creatures ruled the land. Yes, welcome to Perm. This epic began 300 million years ago. At that time, our planet had one supercontinent, Pangea, which was surrounded by a world ocean called Panthalassa. The Permian began at the end of the Ice Age, when temperatures were much colder than today. In the early days of the Permian period, the earth warmed into a lush environment where plants were diverse and insect and animal life developed rapidly. Constantly shifting on our blue marble, the Earth continued to warm and dry over the next 50 million years, and eventually the deadliest event in our planet's history wiped out almost everything that had ever lived here. Scientists call this event the Great Dying, and it was the most catastrophic mass extinction the Earth has ever seen, and the Earth has seen five of them. But before we get into all that doom and gloom, let me take you on an epic journey. Back in time, here in the Permian, some of the most incredible species to ever roam our young planet are emerging. If you could time travel nearly 300 million years into the past, you would land in the middle of the supercontinent Pangea. The smaller continents of the Earth would have simply collided with each other to form this huge land mass, which occupies a third of the surface of the planet. There was probably less oxygen in the air than now, but it could still breathe. And bring a jacket because it will probably be cold, and in some places the average temperature is four degrees. But don't worry; things are heating up. By the end of the Early Permian, the Ice Age had ended, and Pangea had become an abundant world. Plants and animals flourished. Violent global eruptions changed the climate, shaped the landscape, and paved the way for development. When the giant swamp forests began to dry out, plants had to adapt, and so 290 million years ago, the Earth saw the first seed-bearing plants called gymnosperms. These plants carried seeds in their cones, and they spread like wildfire across the continent.

10 fastest animals on this planet
Introduction. How fast can a human being run? Research shows that human beings can run as fast as forty miles an hour, but the sprint speed is approximately 13 miles an hour. However, a 13-mile-per-hour sprint is not sufficient to win a race with some of the fastest animals in the world in the wild, where speed is essential for survival. A predator must run faster than its prey or it dies of hunger, and the prey must run faster than the predator or it becomes a meal. The slowest animals have to be smart enough to outwit their predators. Here are ten of the fastest animals on this planet.

Creamy Caramel Custard
It's time for a caramel dessert that every pastry chef needs to know about. Crème caramel is different from crème brûlée; it has a lighter consistency and a silkier texture, but it's about the caramel before I get to the caramel. I need to make a cream base, so I break two whole eggs into a bowl and then separate the two eggs. Now I add six spoons of sugar to it, beat it a little, and now I grab my milk. Milk is the main difference between crème caramel and crème brûlée. or measure two cups, and I think 2% milk works best when most other custards are made with warm milk. The creamy caramel custard is made with cold milk, which ensures gradual baking and a silky texture. With a teaspoon of vanilla and then just a pinch of salt, mix it, and the best way for a pastry chef is to drain the cream before baking. So that each bite is silky smooth and that it sets.

The Best Lasagna Bologna Recipe
Lasagna alla Bolognese is the ultimate in Italian comfort food. Here's my take on what could be considered the holy grail of lasagna: Okay, there are a few things to do before building and baking the lasagna, and it all starts with the ragu ala Bolognese. Place a large sauce pot over medium-high heat and add a few tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Once it's hot, add 227 grammes of chopped pancetta and cook it down until all that fat is rendered out and the little pieces of meat are a rich mahogany color. Now add 680 grammes of ground pork to the pot and give it a good stir so it's all mixed up with that pancetta, then let it cook. The goal here is to render out all that fat and let the moisture evaporate, so the meat can brown nicely. We're also looking for a crust to develop on the bottom of the pan, and that's called the fond. It's one of the keys to irresistible flavor. Add 680 grammes of ground beef.
