Daniel: Hello, I'm Daniel Zomparelli, and I'm afraid of everything and I want to know what scares you, so I've invited people to tell me what they're afraid of. Then I talked with experts to dig a little deeper and get tips on how to deal. This is I'm Afraid That. Daniel: Cockroaches are disgusting. The worst incident I had with the cockroach was while on a family vacation at what I think was Sesame Street Themed Resort. My siblings and I got wasted at their fake nightclub that had an occupancy of about eight people, after too many vodka sodas I passed out. My sister told me later that I forced them at 2:00 AM to get me a grilled cheese. When it finally arrived, I refused to eat it. The next morning I woke up trying to piece together the night before when I was about to walk to the bathroom to shower a giant cockroach fell out of the air conditioner right on top of my head, into my hair. This is all to say that I am very afraid of family vacations now. Someone who is deeply afraid of cockroaches is Nailed It! Nicole Byer. We you talk with her about her deep fear of the bug and then we also talk with cockroach expert, Dr. Phillip G Koehler to learn more about the notorious pest. So we've got a special guest co-host today. Gabe: That's right.

Percebi claramente, contudo, que a fronteira entre esses dois grupos não é, absolutamente, impermeável, de modo que o que se tem é um constante exercício extrajurisdicional da competência (primária) de cada uma dessas pessoas. Em primeiro lugar, teoricamente no primeiro grupo, mas provando que no fundo o que se tem é uma grande cross-fertilization de contribuições, meus pais, acadêmicos sem cujo apoio e amor eu não teria chegado até aqui, e sem cuja influência eu certamente não teria desenvolvido o pensamento crítico que tento esboçar nas linhas deste trabalho. Pela amizade incondicional, fundamental nessa jornada, agradeço às minhas queridas Diana, Helena, Isabela, Naiana, Nicole e Priscila, que redefiniram meu conceito de amizade e cuja companhia me faz falta todo dia.

Perhaps setting the tone was an executive session over the weekend with new HBO pres, programming Casey Bloys, whose first TCA since taking over for departing Michael Lombardo involved tough questions about HBO’s new series “Westworld” (premieres Oct 2) in which a woman is dragged off presumably to be raped in the 1st ep’s opening sequence. Despite the conceit that she is actually a robot who looks human, it spurred questions similar to those raised last year over a rape scene in the net’s “Game of Thrones.” Bloys said violence on those shows is “pretty extreme on all fronts” and “spread equally” across both genders. Critics also pointed out that the net’s “The Night Of” also centers on a brutalized female victim. After critics persisted, Bloys did say that HBO isn’t tone deaf on the issue. “To your larger point of is it something we think about, yeah. I think the criticism is valid,” he said. “So I think it’s something that people take into account.” The racial issue has also permeated TCA, with critics pointing out that HBO’s new comedy “Vice Principals” pits two white men against a black woman whose job they covet.

  • RML Spring 2021 Rights Guide
    NON-FICTION TO STAND AND STARE: How To Garden While Doing Next to Nothing Andrew Timothy O’Brien There’s a lot of advice out there that would tell you how to do numerous things in your garden. But not so much that invites you to think about how to be while you’re out there. With increasingly busy lives, yet another list of chores seems like the very last thing any of us needs when it comes to our own practice of self-care, relaxation and renewal. After all, aren’t these the things we wanted to escape to the garden for in the first place? Put aside the ‘Jobs to do this week’ section in the Sunday papers. What if there were a more low-intervention way to On submission Spring 2021 garden, some reciprocal arrangement through which both you and your soil get fed, with the minimum degree of fuss, effort and guilt on your part, and the maximum measure of healthy, organic growth on that of your garden? In To Stand and Stare, Andrew Timothy O’Brien weaves together strands of botany, philosophy and mindfulness to form an ecological narrative suffused with practical gardening know-how. Informed by a deep understanding and appreciation of natural processes, O’Brien encourages the reader to think from the ground up, as we follow the pattern of a plant’s growth through the season – roots, shoots, and fruits – while advocating an increased awareness of our surroundings. ANDREW TIMOTHY O’BRIEN is an online gardening coach, blogger and host of the critically acclaimed Gardens, Weeds & Words podcast.
