Obrigada pela confiança depositada em cada projeto, é sempre uma honra poder fazer parte das suas pesquisas e dos seus cronogramas que na hora parecem impossíveis de serem cumprimos, mas que no final sempre dão certo.

  • It Really Brightens up Hearty Vegetables, Like Broccolini, and Something Magical Happens When It’S Combined with All That Sauteed Garlic
    And thank you for the support! A zine is about the here and now. As I am typing this we are seven months into the pandemic. The restaurant has been open for a bit, mostly for delivery. We have a little outdoor seating, in the form of a few hijacked parking spots out front. There are tables up and down the block and people don’t mind much. That’s how things are now. The city is allowing some indoor dining, but we won’t be doing that any time soon. But let’s go back a few decades for the back back story... Since the 80s, I’ve been cooking vegan food in Brooklyn as a way to bring people together. In the form of feminist potlucks or hosting brunches at any of the two dozen apartments I’ve lived in all over the borough. Feeding people in the park through volunteer organizations, or at fur-free Friday in the 90s. Even just cooking some latkes for my family at Hannukah. Really, any opportunity to serve people vegan food and I’m in. So having a vegan restaurant in Brooklyn, just a few blocks from where my grandfather grew up actually, was a natural culmination of passion, community and a sense of duty. A few years ago, when I was well into my forties, I was lucky enough to partner with Sara and Erica, whose family also has had ties to the neighborhood for decades and who also just want everyone to eat vegan. Well, great! A meal is born..

  • Interview with Emily Deschanel by OUR HEN HOUSE Published August 24, 2013
    Interview with Emily Deschanel By OUR HEN HOUSE Published August 24, 2013 Following is a transcript of an interview with EMILY DESCHANEL conducted by JASMIN SINGER and MARIANN SULLIVAN of Our Hen House, for the Our Hen House podcast. The interview was conducted by telephone on August 13, 2013. JASMIN: Emily Deschanel stars on Fox’s hit show Bones, a drama noted for its light comedic undertone, which will soon be filming its ninth, yes, ninth, season. The darkly amusing series features Emily as Dr. Temperance Brennan, a brilliant but emotionally stunted forensic anthropologist who writes novels as a sideline and has an uncanny ability to read clues left behind in a victim’s bones. Emily’s performance has garnered her three Teen Choice Award nominations for Choice TV Actress-Drama, and two People’s Choice Award nominations for Favorite TV Drama Actress, as well as a nomination for Favorite TV Crime Fighter. Emily was recently seen in Anne Renton’s independent comedy The Perfect Family, where she played a successful lawyer who struggles with telling her religious mother she is pregnant and in a loving, committed relationship with another woman. She also starred in Nick Cassavetes’ My Sister’s Keeper and can be seen in Jerry Bruckheimer’s Glory Road. A passionate animal rights activist and long-time vegan, Emily has worked with Farm Sanctuary, the Humane Society, and Mercy for Animals. She has also been involved with Women for Women International and Five Acres. Welcome to Our Hen House, Emily! EMILY: Thank you so much! I’m very glad to be here.

Purpose of the Study Noam Chomsky (2003) has led an ongoing discussion about how a few multinational corporations have “manufactured the consent” of the American public for undemocratic public policies, environmentally damaging lifestyles, and oppressive cultural norms—despite the fact that such ideologically-laden actions are in sharp conflict with the interests of the majority of the population, the health of the culture, and the sustainability of the planet.

  • December 2015 Client Alert: Bones Complaints: Did Fox Properly Account for Hulu Monies? by Ezra Doner* Twentieth Century Fox
    December 2015 Client Alert: Bones Complaints: Did Fox Properly Account for Hulu monies? By Ezra Doner* Twentieth Century Fox produces the hit TV series Bones for its broadcast network and also makes the series available on Hulu of which it is a one-third owner. Did Fox properly report and share monies it received from its license of Bones to Hulu? Two complaints recently filed by revenue participants claim it did not.1 The Big Picture As new media technologies and services continue to develop, revenue participants want the opportunity to shape corresponding licensing practices. This is especially true when a distributor, such as Fox, licenses to a new media company, such as Hulu, which Fox co-owns. These new Bones cases raise issues I previously explored in posts about The Walking Dead and Harlequin Books. Bones, the Series Bones, a one-hour crime procedural, debuted on the Fox broadcast network in September 2005 and is now in its 11thseason, making it Fox’s longest running one-hour drama ever. As of the date of this writing, a remarkable 220 episodes have aired. The TV series is based on the “Temperance Brennan” book franchise by Kathy Reichs, a forensic anthropologist. The stars of the series are Emily Deschanel as Brennan and David Boreanaz as Agent Booth. Barry Josephson, an originator of the series, has been an executive producer since inception. The Plaintiffs Reichs, Deschanel and Boreanaz are plaintiffs in one of the recent complaints, and Josephson is the plaintiff in the other. Per the complaints, the plaintiffs’ profits participations are: Reichs, 5%; Deschanel and Boreanaz, 3% each; and Josephson, a “significant” but unspecified percentage.
