The Story Book of Science Jean-Henri Fabre The famed French naturalist Fabre covers a large variety of subjects in these 70 short but fascinating essays about insects, animals and nature in general. The translator explains in her foreword, "The young in heart and the pure in heart of whatever age will find themselves drawn to this incomparable story-teller, this reverent reveler of the awe-inspiring secrets of nature. The identity of the "Uncle Paul," who in this book and others of the series plays the story-teller's part, is not hard to guess; and the young people who gather about him to listen to his true stories from wood and field, from brook and hilltop, from distant ocean and adjacent millpond, are, without doubt, the author's own children, in whose companionship he delighted and whose education he conducted with wise solicitude." (Summary by Phil Chenevert) Ralph the Heir by Anthony Trollope Loyal Books As usual, Trollope creates a nice variety of characters of different English classes, sentiments and positions. The primary themes are the inheritance of property, extravagance or reason in the spending of assets, the mating of young people, and the electoral practices of the time. The election chapters are based on Trollope's own experiences when he ran for Parliament.There are, of course, many subplots which allow Trollope to express, through dialog, his opinions about greed, snobbery, work ethics and dandyism. Trollope probably regretted the duplicative naming of his characters after a while; we have two Gregory Newtons, uncle (and present Squire of Newton) and one of his nephews. Then there are several Ralphs: the (deceased) father, Ralph his son (the heir), and Ralph (not the heir) the son of the uncle Gregory! As they appear, Trollope has to interject "not the heir", or "the other Ralph". Ralph the heir is an extravagant, easy living young man who has spent himself into deb Those Who Aunt The BabyMakers Auntie Mags (Dana Quercioli) and Aunt Pat (Colleen Doyle) see the world through aunt-colored glasses. And if you don’t know what that means, Mags and Pat will talk at you until you get it. From dismantling the “fun uncle” narrative, to current events and how they pertain to aunts, to debating whether Marshall’s or Kohl’s is the superior place to buy decent luggage, you’ll gain deeper insight and appreciation for the aunts in your life. Probably. Content Lacking. Peter DePaulo, Evan Crockett, and Maclen Zilber Three working stiffs, Peter DePaulo, Evan Crockett, and Maclen Zilber, search for creative meaning and expression in day-to-day life. This podcast tackles the hard questions such as "Which is smarter: a cat or a bear?" and "Who is the good uncle?" Join the three guys as they goof and gaff their way through the good times and the bad (and maybe you'll learn something along the way). Improvisational, free-form comedy (or lack thereof) pointed the things that should be important but aren't and those are important but shouldn't be. Find out more at https://www.contentlacking.com.
