Top 10 Favorite Gay-Themed Books
When I move, the worst part of it is packing up and moving all the books. I am buried under books. I have read more books than I can count. I am a true book slut, moving restlessly from one to the other, finding satisfaction here, disappointment there…and sometimes magic. I wanted to just give you the very first books that came to mind when I thought of my very favorite "gay" books. I'm a great believer in going with one's gut. So here they are (in no particular order):
1. Strangers on a Train by Patricia Highsmith. Highsmith has long been one of my literary icons. When it comes to probing the darkest sides of human nature, no one does it better than she. Strangers on a Train is a much better novel than the Hitchcock movie of the same name (although that was not without its charm, among them the very lovely Farley Granger) and has a much darker resolution. Its homoeroticism, too, is much more explicit than in the sanitized Hollywood film that bears the same name.
2. The Front Runner by Patricia Nell Warren. How many other gay men have had the same experience as I did? I discovered this book on a trip to the mall when I was in high school, surreptitiously bought it when my friend wasn't looking, and took it to home, hid it between my mattress, and box springs…and absolutely treasured it. It opened my eyes to so much (yes, two men can really love each other—it's not a sickness or an abnormality) and made me realize I was not alone.
3. No Night is Too Long by Ruth Rendell (writing as Barbara Vine). No contemporary mystery/psychological thriller writer does it better than Ruth Rendell. She plays with gay themes in several of her novels, but in this tale of psychological suspense, she most successfully blends homosexual themes and characters with heart-pounding suspense and shines a light into our darkest fears and compulsions.
4. Mysterious Skin by Scott Heim. This was Heim's debut novel and it's weird, wonderful, and disturbing, combining alien abduction, memory loss, and child sexual abuse in a compelling, lyrical, and thought-provoking narrative. I'm sad to say that none of his subsequent work had the sheer power of this one.
5. In a Shallow Grave by James Purdy. Purdy is one of the most underrated American writers. I believe he is one of the masters of 20th century literature and this gem, about a disaffected and disfigured war veteran and his love for a hired male caretaker and the fugitive who comes into both their lives is spiritual, carnal, and profound. And Purdy's command of the language and his use of American colloquial speech is nothing short of poetry.
6. The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollinghurst. A perfectly rendered portrait of England in the 1980s and the rise of the new right, this story about young gay Nick Guest and his social and sexual awakening is harrowing stuff, since we know that tragedy lurks just around the corner for not only our naïve young—and often selfish—protagonist, but for a whole segment of society.
7. Was by Geoff Ryman. This revisionist take on my favorite movie of all time, The Wizard of Oz, is simply brilliant literature. In its parallel stories of a "real" Dorothy Gale, a "scarecrow" dying of AIDS, and the plight of a child star named Frances Gumm combine to form a narrative that is nothing short of literary brilliance.
8. Michael Tolliver Lives by Armistead Maupin. The Tales of the City books, like The Front Runner, were eye-openers and touchstones for me as a young gay man coming to grips with his own identity. Reading this last entry in the series really resonated with me and touched me, since I am not far behind Michael himself and have experienced many, if not most, of his same joys and sorrows.
9. The Lost Language of Cranes by David Leavitt. This was Leavitt's first novel and, while I wouldn't say it's his best, I would say it's his sweetest and most satisfying. So much of the story resonates with me personally (the closeted father with a gay son) that it simply touches my heart more than his other work.
10. IM by Rick R. Reed. You didn't think I'd compile this list without putting myself on it? But people always ask which of my books is my favorite and this one is clamoring for a mention. I love it because it combines a little romance, with a lot of suspense, some horror, and commentary on gay life and culture.

M/M GAY ROMANCE CONTEMPORARY
Edited by: Tina Adamski
Cover Art by: Jay Aheer
Life isn't always fair, and that's something that Llewellyn Gardner knows about first hand. His life was on the fast track until one night of extreme passion changed everything.
Now eight years later, he's still living with the aftershocks of that night. Everywhere he turns or runs, there's another reminder. What the hell do you do when you try to drown your demons only to find out Shane Smith, Jr. owner of Smith Construction, could see the emotional turmoil within his new employee — it's why he hired him. There was something about the gorgeous, misunderstood man with the overly expressive eyes that came to their small town with a past no one was willing to overlook. Shane could see the good in Llewellyn, and those eyes of his were a clear window to his soul. Shane wasn't going to let the man live a future of solitude because his past had been plagued with deceit.
Llewellyn wasn't sure what to think about Shane. After years of protecting himself from being tricked twice, he was now faced with worry again. What would happen to him if Shane didn't believe his truth, and walked away? Llewellyn wasn't sure he'd be able to survive being left alone. Again.
"Thinking of going in? Or are you just gonna block the entrance?"
Llew turned at the sound of the sure voice behind him. Since he seemed to tower over everyone he looked down at the pretty brunette with dark brown eyes to match. "Um. Sorry." Llew mumbled quickly, "Well don't be sorry shuga', just escort a lady inside." Llew didn't blink as he watched the lady stalk towards him. Her full chest sat above an extremely narrow waist. It almost looked unnatural. She dressed and wore the amount of makeup that a grown woman would, but her smooth face and approach screamed her real age. She was jailbait if he'd ever seen one. Llew gave her a slight head nod and turned to leave when his elbow was hooked.
"I saw you in the general store applying for a job. You musta' jus' got into town, because if not I'd have known, honey. So you got kin here?"
The laugh was an all-out immature giggle and it graded on his nerves. "Cat got your tongue,
darlin'". She moved in even closer and dragged a long red nail down Llew's arm, tilting her head back to look up at him. "You want me to beg, huh? Come on now, handsome. Escort a lady to a movie… then, "Maybe when he sees' a lady… he'll escort one."
Llew diverted his attention away from the overzealous minx that was practically humping his leg
and focused on the beautiful man approaching with another guy in tow. His voice wasn't overly deep like his own, it was a smooth and melodic southern drawl. Like he could be a singer or a poet. He walked with an unhurried gait that was a mixture of 'I'm in charge' and 'you're on my time, not the other way around', and Llew found it sexy as fuck. His tall friend chuckled behind him, moving away to purchase their tickets.
Is he on a date? No, their demeanor definitely said 'friends.'
"Mind ya' own business Smith, Jr. I saw him first."
The man hooked one thumb in his pocket not the slightest bit fazed at the remark. But Llew was
thrown. Was this guy actually gay or was she being a smart aleck? The man gave him nothing to go on. He moved closer towards them and Llew got a nice whiff of his spicy, bold cologne when a cool breeze blew his way. It was an interesting contradiction, because the man's entire persona said 'cool and "Mosey along, Sallie Ann. Don't make me ring ya' daddy. He told me keep an eye on you while
he's gone and I agreed. He'd be rather put out if I didn't follow through on my promise."
She reluctantly let go of his arm, letting loose a long drawn out huff of annoyance. Llew didn't bother watching her walk away. She was irrelevant. With his hands tucked deep in his pockets he eyed the man in front of him with a mixture of curiosity and wistfulness.
"Sometimes a person has gotta' run interference with that girl. She's usually not that bad but her
daddy's outta' town, so ya' know how young girls can be."
"Hi. I'm Shane Smith, Jr." he stuck out a large, calloused hand and it took Llew a couple seconds to process that he was going to touch him. Llew shook his hand, his mouth still closed tight as he watched the man's eyes. They were light brown and full of humor and amusement. He immediately thought that this was obviously a guy who had little worries if any in life. Wait a minute…Smith….Jr. Is he the owner of? He let go of the strong grip on his hand and wished he'd been able to hold it a little longer.
Llew swallowed before answering. "Llew."
Those eyes twinkled again and dark brown brows rose up in question. "Llew…just Llew."
It was a humiliation when a man hated to tell someone his name. But by doing so it meant that they would soon know who he really was. Know who he was classified as. He didn't want this man to know that, god help him he didn't. But lying wasn't an option. Fuck it. "Llewellyn Gardner."
So many broke eye contact with him and Llew was more than intrigued that Mr. Shane Smith, Jr. was staring at him just as hard as he was staring back. He didn't know why he was looking at him that
"Now that's a name." Smith smiled beautifully.
Llew wasn't sure if this guy was flirting with him or not, he'd been in a place where flirting didn't exist for so long, he'd forgotten what it looked like…what it sounded like. The way Shane Smith, Jr. was smiling at him it sure seemed like it. Llew could imagine himself with a strong man like this. A man who was gorgeous but didn't know it. Not overly done up in fancy digs, he was dressed like a working man but he wore that look well. He appeared simple but confident, like a man that followed his own counsel and was not easily persuaded. But Llew wouldn't dare get his hopes up. As soon as word got out that there was a newly registered sex offender in their quaint little town, Smith, Jr. might be leading the lynch mob to run him out of there.

THIRD EYE: Beyond the Thriller
Third Eye means a lot to me not only because it's the kind of book that's scary, suspenseful, and hard-to-put-down (I don't write otherwise...boring is one of the worst sins a book can commit), but also because at its heart, it's a book about the unique bond parents have with their children. It's dedicated to the memory of my own mom and I like to think my main, character, Cayce, has the same parental qualities and capacity for love that my mother did.
Who knew that a summer thunderstorm and his lost little boy would conspire to change single dad Cayce D'Amico's life in an instant? With Luke missing, Cayce ventures into the woods near their house to find his son, only to have lightning strike a tree near him, sending a branch down on his head. When he awakens the next day in the hospital, he discovers he has been blessed or cursed—he isn't sure which—with psychic ability. Along with unfathomable glimpses into the lives of those around him, he's getting visions of a missing teenage girl.
When a second girl disappears soon after the first, Cayce realizes his visions are leading him to their grisly fates. Cayce wants to help, but no one believes him. The police are suspicious. The press wants to exploit him. And the girls' parents have mixed feelings about the young man with the "third eye."
Cayce turns to local reporter Dave Newton and, while searching for clues to the string of disappearances and possible murders, a spark ignites between the two. Little do they know that nearby, another couple—dark and murderous—are plotting more crimes and wondering how to silence the man who knows too much about them.
"A riveting, nail-biting, thought-provoking, frightening thriller, this story is much more than an M/M romance--it's a brilliant tale worthy of recognition on the New York Times Bestsellers List...Don't miss the chance to read this book."

Hooking Up Online. Who's On the Other End?
Why I Wrote IM
If you get an instant message from me, would you wonder why? Probably not, unless you knew that my latest thriller was called IM, and that IM in the title stands for instant message, but that it could also stand for instant murder. And maybe you'd pause if you knew that IM is a book about a serial killer who uses the Internet to lure his victims.
But then again, maybe you wouldn't. After all, what are the odds that someone who writes a book about a murderer who uses instant messages to charm his way into the homes of his victims, where he will ruthlessly stab them and perpetrate all sorts of horrors on their bodies would actually do something so heinous?
IM comes from that comfort zone we probably all have: that place that tells us, "It couldn't happen to me." People, in general, don't expect to be murdered. That's why scores of young men on gay internet hook up sites often brazenly invite strangers into their homes. They believe it "couldn't happen to them."
This belief is the impetus for IM. The internet has made it so easy for us to meet other people, especially for sex. Who needs a bar, a social club, or even a bathhouse to meet a sex partner? Today, we can order up a roll in the hay almost as easily as we can order a pizza. And have it delivered fast, hot, and fresh… The temptation is so great that many of us cast caution to the wind and never do the things common sense might tell us when contemplating an online hook-up, things like meeting in public first, getting the details on your potential suitor like name, address, phone number and conveying those details to a good friend, just in case.
Instead, many men, every day, open their homes up to complete strangers. Strangers who have no connection to them. Who, if they're careful, would leave no pesky traces like motivation or other associations investigators might look for. The internet has made it easy to perpetrate the perfect crime.
Enter my killer, Timothy Bright, who looks mild mannered but who's twisted and broken on the inside. He knows how easy it is to chat someone up online and gain admittance to their homes. It almost never fails.
And that's just how it works in real life. I thought that was scary…and so I began writing.
The Internet is the new meat market for gay men. Now a killer is turning the meat market into a meat wagon.
One by one, he's killing them. Lurking in the digital underworld of Men4HookUpNow.com, he lures, seduces, and charms, reaching out through instant messages to the unwary. When the first body surfaces, openly gay Chicago Police Department detective Ed Comparetto is called in to investigate. At the scene, the young man who discovered the body tells him the story of how he found his friend. But did this witness play a bigger role in the murder than he's letting on?
For Comparetto, this encounter is the beginning of a nightmare—because this witness did more than just show up at the scene of the crime; he set the scene. Comparetto is on a journey to discover the truth—before he loses his career, his boyfriend, his sanity… his life. Because in this killer's world, IM doesn't stand for instant message… it stands for instant murder.

Guest Post & New Release from Sue Brown!
From Sue:
They say write what you know and the one thing I can remember is suffering through the work team building exercises of the eighties and nineties. That was the last time I worked in a big office. Do they still have them now?
These wretched events were the bane of my working life. It was like being forced to do PE at school. How could I get out of them? I spent all week at work. The last thing I wanted was to spend the weekend with my work colleagues, as much as I liked them, throwing eggs out of windows and building constructions with plastic cups and straws. The worst for me was the Winning Ways (yes, I did it) programme. Weeks of meetings where everyone mixed from the top director to the newest junior – and wasn't that comfortable – not! If you turned the logo upside down it looked like the logo for a popular brand of condoms at the time (no longer in production). It caused much amusement among the younger members of the work-force.
If someone had offered to send me on an all-expenses paid weekend in the sunshine with cabana boys serving cocktails I'd have been first in the queue. Sadly that was never on the agenda. I imagine Frankie would have loved a weekend with hot cabana boys. Instead he got Womb Weekend. He also got Al. Lucky, lucky boy.
Frankie & Al Excerpt
ONE OF the joys of working in a large insurance company was that Frankie had a Monday-to-
Friday job processing new insurance policies. He waved good-bye at five o'clock Friday evening
and didn't have to think about work or his colleagues until eight thirty Monday morning.
Until the day Frankie opened the e-mail from Human Resources. "You've got to be fucking kidding
Charlotte looked over from her desk. "What?"
"They're sending me on a team-building exercise." He didn't appreciate Charlotte's chuckle.
"Winning Ways? What the fuck is that?"
"You've been caught. They get us all in the end. You get to spend the weekend in a swanky hotel,
building egg wombs and sucking up to managers. Don't sweat it. You'll enjoy it."
"Don't bank on it," he muttered. "Wait, egg what?"
"Egg wombs. You know." At Frankie's frown, she said, "You have to drop the egg out of a window
without it cracking, using only a plastic bag and a cup."
"Is that what they really call it?"
She shrugged. "Who knows? That's what you've got to do. And the sucking up to the managers.
They give you the 'We're all equal here. Call me Jeff' speech but you know they're just spying on
everything you do."
It was Frankie's recurring nightmare—to be stuck in a small room with his colleagues and not be
able to get away. He got that five days a week but at the weekend as well? "Karma's a bitch."
"Do you want the list?"
"You've been that bad?"
"Probably worse," he admitted.
She smirked at him. "Frankie's been a bad, bad boy, and now he is going to get his bottom
spanked?"
"I wouldn't mind if it was that sort of weekend." Frankie grinned as Charlotte's cheeks crimsoned.
"You're wicked," she said. "My mother warned me about boys like you."
"My mother warned me about boys like me too. They sounded much more fun than the good,
church-going boys she wanted me to meet."
She gave him an odd look. "She knew you were gay back then?"
He rolled his eyes. "Girl, look at me. Could anyone not realize I'm gay?"
"You have a point."
Frankie's mum said it was obvious he was gay from the moment he came out of the womb. According to her description, Frankie flounced out to the song on the radio. Frankie thought that
being born to Kylie must have been prophetic. It could have been worse—he might have been
born to Meat Loaf.

12 Americans who tried to ruin the British monarchy
BY Otto English
From Thomas Jefferson to Meghan Markle, the US is waging a war to drag Britons down to their republican level.
Trump on China's Xi: 'We love each other'
'The president is trying to get us out of every armed conflict we're in. I can't imagine him escalating into a new one,' said Senator Shelley Moore Capito (Republican-West Virginia) | Alex Wong/Getty Images
Republicans: Trump doesn't want war with Iran
Senate Republicans say the president — and many in their caucus — wants to avoid a conflict.
By	Burgess Everett
Senate Republicans say that for all his bellicose rhetoric, President Donald Trump doesn't want a war — and neither do they.
Some Republican hawks are pushing for an aggressive approach with Iran, arguing that military conflict may be unavoidable. Yet their vocal warnings are obscuring the fact that many in the Republican Party don't want to fight and that Trump himself is deeply reluctant to entangle the United States in foreign interventions.
Entering a critical day of briefings on Capitol Hill, Trump has broad support in the Republican Party for a show of strength in the Middle East. They're standing behind his multiple threats that any provocation by Iran would essentially be the end of the country.
"They've been very hostile," Trump told reporters on Monday evening. "We have no indication that anything has happened or will happen, but if it does, it will be met obviously with great force. We'll have no choice."
But there are limits to how much support Trump could count on from his own party should military action be seriously considered.
Some libertarian-minded Republicans like Senators Rand Paul (Republican-Kentucky) and Mike Lee (Republican-Utah) would require a congressional authorization to support any strike on Iran, something that Republican leaders have typically ignored. But more mainstream members of the Republican Party like Senator Mitt Romney of Utah have also expressed skepticism with action against Tehran.
Many in the party are therefore putting considerable faith in Trump's past remarks distancing himself from the Iraq War and his moves to wind down the U.S. presence in both Syria and Afghanistan. Indeed, Republicans said on Monday that Trump's provocative language and military movements likely mask a reluctance to strike Iran.
"You're always concerned about it if it escalates. But I really don't see that. The president is trying to get us out of every armed conflict we're in. I can't imagine him escalating into a new one," said Senator Shelley Moore Capito (Republican-West Virginia).
Trump: 'If Iran wants to fight, that will be the official end of Iran'

US pressure on Iran strains Bolton-Pompeo relationship
Congress is filled with Iran hawks, mostly Republican but some in the Democratic Party. The partisan divide on national security has accelerated in recent years: Every Senate Democrat, other than Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and three of his colleagues, supported President Barack Obama's nuclear deal with Iran. The Republican Party uniformly opposed it, and most in the party have supported the Trump administration's crushing sanctions regime against the Islamic Republic.
The president has fashioned himself far more in the mold of Paul than the hawkish Senator Lindsey Graham (Republican-South Carolina), who was shocked by Trump's plans to pull out of Syria and only was able to convince Trump to leave a small force in the country.
Trump's hiring of John Bolton as national security adviser may have changed the approach inside the White House, but Trump's dovish core hasn't changed, senators said. Perhaps that can't prevent conflict with Iran if it strikes first, but they said they were confident that Trump's aggressive posture is far more about a Trumpian brand of diplomacy than it is about marching to war.
"Every president in their right mind tries to avoid a military conflict," said Senator John Cornyn (Republican-Texas). "Iran doesn't to go to war with the United States. We don't want to go to war with Iran. But we're simply not going to let them rule the roost."
Yet Democrats are warning that the Trump administration's rhetoric and military positioning has emboldened the party's hawkish wing and sparked a series of escalations. After speaking with Bolton, Graham warned of an "overwhelming military response" if Iran follows through on threats to the United States.
"We're dangerously close to this place where each of us think the other is the aggressor. And that's how really dumb wars start," said Senator Chris Murphy (Democrat-Connecticut). "It's typical that the hawks in the Republican Party are always the dominant voices here. And hopefully they're masking some quieter disagreement."
A small slice of the party, including senators like Lee and Paul, as well as Todd Young (Republican-Indiana), the party's campaign chairman, are warning that they will demand Congress take a vote to underpin any military strike. Romney has warned that Trump's previous reluctance to military conflicts should be viewed as instructive as to how he's viewing Iran, deeming it "close to inconceivable" that Trump would enter into a new armed conflict.
Party leaders are taking a deliberative stance heading into the briefings, saying the administration can and should present a menu of options to potential responses. The Senate and House will each hold separate briefings on Tuesday afternoon with General Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan and representatives of the intelligence community. Bolton is not expected to attend.
"First and foremost, this is not anything we're initiating. This is simply a response to anything that Iran might attempt to do. The question then is, what's the proportional response and how much," said Senate Majority Whip John Thune (Republican-South Dakota). "We want to hear about what the options are."
Yet to hear more hawkish Republicans tell it, the intelligence of Iran's movements and actions will be far more revealing. Senator Marco Rubio (Republican-Florida) said he hopes he emerges from the briefing flanked by members of both parties who agreed with him that there's a "potentially imminent threat" in Tehran.
Still, he was also eager to downplay all the comparisons to the disastrous Iraq War that have been made in recent days.
"This is very different. No one is proposing a unilateral U.S. offensive against Iran," Rubio said. "If Iran attacks, there's going to be a response. If they don't attack, there will be no more war. It's not like people are making a case of an invasion."

Steve Earle and the Dukes: "J.T."
Any humane listener would wish that "J.T." did not have reason to exist. The gripping new Steve Earle album (made with his band, the Dukes) finds the hardscrabble singer covering the work of his son Justin Townes Earle after his death last year. The talented younger Earle began his...
The most enthralling period piece onscreen right now isn't streaming on Netflix (sorry, "Bridgerton")—it's the six-minute marvel "Salacia," by the artist, filmmaker, and activist Tourmaline, making her solo gallery début at Chapter NY (through Jan. 24), which has opened a pop-up location, at 126 Madison Street,...
Pretend It's a City
Your appetite for the new seven-part Netflix documentary series "Pretend It's a City" will depend on particular factors: your interest in the oeuvre of Martin Scorsese, your tolerance for discursive monologuing, and your baseline affinity for New York City. The show follows Fran Lebowitz, the gruff, opinionated cultural critic...
In "Mandabi," from 1968, the Senegalese director Ousmane Sembène ranged widely through private and public settings in the capital city of Dakar to satirize corruption born of misrule. The film (streaming on Film Forum's virtual cinema starting Jan. 15) is centered on the sixtysomething Ibrahima, the long-unemployed husband of...
Chili Crisp and Exquisite Fast Food at Milu
Where were you during the Great Chili-Crisp Craze of 2020? It ranks as barely a blip in that extraordinary year yet still is useful in defining it. Chili crisp—commonly associated with Lao Gan Ma, a brand started some thirty years ago by a noodle-shop owner in China's...
New Year's Eve Goes Virtual
Since 1907, the Times Square Ball (pictured) has dropped in New York City for all but two New Year's Eves. (The exceptions were the wartime dimouts of 1942 and 1943.) On Dec. 31, the ball descends at midnight, as usual, but the party is virtual: the public isn't...
Kid Cudi: "Man on the Moon III: The Chosen"
In the decade since Kid Cudi released "Man on the Moon," the first in the three-album series that's marked his career, the question of how, exactly, he planned to end his trilogy has trailed him through side recordings, acting gigs, and mental-health struggles. His diehard fans finally get an...
The Public's Under the Radar festival is known for testing the bounds of theatrical convention, making it well positioned for a year in which stage artists have no choice but to experiment. The 2021 edition, running Jan. 6-17 (at publictheater.org), once again draws on the international avant-garde, including...
In 2019, the mighty American sculptor Martin Puryear represented the U.S. at the Venice Biennale—and about time, too. In a career spanning nearly fifty years, the artist, who was born in Washington, D.C., in 1941, has mined the great narrative of American life and history for...
Though Francis Ford Coppola won fame with his movies of the nineteen-seventies, his artistry grew more daring in the eighties, as seen in "Rumble Fish," from 1983, a myth-infused coming-of-age story that's directed with a grandly imaginative visual repertoire to match. (It's streaming on Amazon, Peacock, and other...
Barbecued Ribs from a Michelin-Starred Chef
If you've ever wondered what it's like to live with a Michelin-starred chef, you might try ordering from the delivery pop-up Ribs n Reds, available most weekends in Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn. During the first few months of the pandemic, the chef Bryce Shuman, whose midtown restaurant,...
Ice Skating at the Rink at Rockefeller Center
When the Rink at Rockefeller Center (above) opened, on Christmas Day in 1936, it was meant to be a temporary attraction. But the "skating pond," as it was then known, has long since become a winter fixture of New York City. Holden Caulfield went on a date there in "The...
The American artist Benny Andrews, who died in 2006, at the age of seventy-five, painted with deep feeling for working people. He arrived at the extraordinary composite technique he called "rough collage"—incorporating fragments of clothing and other elements into his figurative images—while completing a portrait of...
Ologies
The episode that got me hooked on "Ologies," a weekly talk show hosted by the boisterous, flame-haired comedian Alie Ward, was "Scorpiology." Ward interviews an intrepid entomologist named Lauren Esposito, who has spent her career studying scorpions. As a person with an extreme aversion to creepy-crawlies, I tuned in with...
Taylor Swift: "evermore"
Following her folk-rock revelation, "folklore," a sublime album of fables and flashbacks written and released earlier in the pandemic, Taylor Swift found herself swept up in its many stories. She kept writing them, and now "evermore," which she describes as a sister album to "folklore," exhaustively plumbs those pathways. Again...
A Letter to Three Wives
Though the screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz is in the headlines as the protagonist of "Mank," it's worth noting the more comprehensive artistry of his younger brother, Joseph (a supporting character in "Mank"), who won Oscars for writing and directing the acerbic 1949 melodrama "A Letter to Three Wives." (It'...
The State of the Bagel
The other day, hours after I'd hung up the phone with the chef Mark Strausman, he accidentally called me back. "Oops!" he said. "That's what happens when your fingers are covered in olive oil." Strausman was at his new restaurant, Mark's Off Madison (41 Madison Avenue), which...
The High-Wattage Holiday Lights of Dyker Heights
The tree at Rockefeller Center may have its own prime-time special, but for seasonal spectacle it's hard to compete with the lights of Dyker Heights (pictured). Since the mid-nineteen-eighties, the residents of this Brooklyn neighborhood have been turning their homes into high-wattage displays between Thanksgiving and the New Year....
Sigur Rós: "Odin's Raven Magic"
Though some of Sigur Rós's most popular songs pack plenty of whimsy, the Icelandic band often indulges its darker, more brooding tendencies. "Odin's Raven Magic," a collaboration with the musicians Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, Steindór Andersen, and Maria Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir that originally premièred in a live orchestral setting...
Visit Bureau, on the Lower East Side, before Jan. 9, and you'll be met at the door by two dogs—a pair of spare, exquisitely detailed graphite drawings by the American artist Caleb Considine. The sketches, of statues flanking a mausoleum in Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetery, are virtuosically...
This spring, the actor and rapper Riz Ahmed released "The Long Goodbye," which he described as a breakup album. But the breakup wasn't with a girlfriend; it was with Britain, where he was born to Pakistani immigrants. Inspired by Sufi devotional poetry, Ahmed interrogates his sense of belonging in...
A Family Tour
Despite being acclaimed at the 2018 New York Film Festival, "A Family Tour," by the Hong Kong-based Chinese director Ying Liang—a passionate and analytical drama based on his persecution and exile following his 2012 film, "When Night Falls"—has had no U.S. theatrical release and is...
Obsession-Worthy Tacos at Yellow Rose
"Texas is a state of mind. Texas is an obsession," John Steinbeck wrote in "Travels with Charley: In Search of America," his 1962 book. Then he doubled down: "But I think it is more than that. It is a mystique closely approximating a religion." Consider me, at least, a worshipper...
A Taylor Mac Holiday Show, Tweaked for the Pandemic
The playwright, performance artist, and sprite Taylor Mac (above) does holiday cheer with a twist of subversion. In 2017, Mac, who uses the gender-neutral pronoun "judy," débuted "Holiday Sauce," a vaudevillian romp emphasizing alternative family over Christmas capitalism, at Town Hall. This year, it goes virtual. On Dec. 12, Mac...
On March 31, 1995, the Texas-born singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, at twenty-three years old, was murdered by the president of her fan club. When she died, already a Grammy winner, she was on the precipice of a new kind of global fame, with plans for a "crossover" album with songs in...
Philosophy may not seem like child's play—until you consider that Ludwig Wittgenstein took a six-year hiatus from his career to teach grade school in rural Austria. In fact, the great Austrian thinker published only two books during his lifetime: "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus," in 1921, and a children's...
"An Evening with Audra McDonald"
Audra McDonald's talents have at times taken her far from the musicals of the Great White Way: in addition to starring in "The Good Fight," she's slated to appear in the pandemic-themed series "The Second Wave" and Julian Fellowes's period drama "The Gilded Age," and she recently...
Mae West displays free-spirited delight and cunning power in the comedic melodrama "She Done Him Wrong," from 1933, set on the rowdy Bowery in the Gay Nineties, the decade of her birth. (It's in a batch of her films released on the Criterion Channel, and it's streaming on...
A New Kind of Hot Chicken, from Pecking House
These days, moments of joy seem to arrive mostly by surprise, offering brief relief from the dull feeling that weeks and months are blurring together. The other night, one came via cheap beer. It was Tsingtao, a pale lager, produced by China's second-largest brewery, with an easy-drinking flavor profile...
A Prisoners' Chorus in "Breathing Free"
The most memorable moment in Heartbeat Opera's "Fidelio," from 2018, was a video of several prison choruses—dozens of men and women, including Michael Powell (pictured)—singing. Heartbeat's new streaming show, "Breathing Free" (Dec. 4-12), pairs excerpts from the Beethoven opera with spirituals and works by...
MOMA's Fall Reveal
"What looks good today may not look good tomorrow," reads an ebullient twelve-foot-high canvas by the Luxembourgish painter Michel Majerus, from 2000, now hanging at MOMA. On the other hand, what was overlooked yesterday may dazzle today. That's one takeaway from "Fall Reveal," an inspired reinstallation of roughly a...
Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre
Every December, the dancers of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre fill the City Center stage, night after night, with their joy, verve, and technical prowess. Traditionally, most of those performances end with "Revelations," Ailey's signature work from 1960. Inspired by the Baptist services that Ailey attended as a child...
The twenty-six-year-old Ghanaian-American musician Amaarae sounds like the future of Afro-pop. On her début album, "The Angel You Don't Know," a striking introduction to her effortless genre-bending, her unique style makes her flexing seem wayward and whimsical. Born of the alté scene, where iconoclastic West Africans are experimenting with...
Every biography involves two stories—the subject's life, and the biographer's legwork that brings it to light. The new documentary "Billie" (streaming and in theatres on Dec. 4) uncovers both. It's a fascinatingly detailed portrait of Billie Holiday, the greatest of all jazz singers (who died...
In Greenpoint, Edy's Grocer Offers Lebanese Food with a Nod to the Polish Past
During the first few years of his career, the chef Edouard (Edy) Massih, who started a Brooklyn-based catering company when he was twenty-two, got into the habit of lying about his age. If anyone asked, he was thirty. "New York has a really bad problem with ageism," he told me...

In contrast, the Florida Powerboat Club poker run from Miami to Key West was both safe and fun! Stu Jones' event attracted over 175 entrants with more than 160 boats making the trek in four waves; one each day, Tuesday through Friday. I had the opportunity to meet many new friends and catch up with some I haven't seen for a while.
My former "Miami Office" is still appointed with 1350 engines.
I hitched a ride on Thursday with John Rosatti and guests aboard his 50 Cigarette Marauder. This boat was "Fred's Office" at the 2011 Miami Boat Show: showplace for Mercury Racing's 1350 and M8 drives. At Phil Lipschultz' request, I discussed the benefits of the 1350 and M8 to John. Then Philly sold my office right out from under me! With this reunion, I admit I like what John has done with the place: his beaming smile lights up the boat and reflects his understandable pride and joy in its performance.
Not all the poker runners were MerCruiser powered: This Deep Impact was 350 powered.
Feeling big? Pull up next to this!
We chose the inside route for the first leg, with Cap'n Henry navigating. The fastest MTIs and Skaters stopped at Gilbert's. We motored on to our designated lunch/card stop at Holiday Isles. Even with a chopper overhead (the only one we saw after the start), we suspected we stopped in the wrong place. We arrived alone. Not surprising, since most the time we were running over 110 mph, slowing only for safe passage through the mangroves or speed zones. Half way through my blackened Mahi Mahi, others began arriving.
50 Cigarette as viewed from Remember When's top deck.
Breezes were light and skies were clear, with occasional high clouds. This day was perfect! So, we headed outside for the lower keys and Key West. Most times, we were cruising 85 to 90 mph – at about 4,700 rpm. With a grin and a thumbs-up, John would hammer the Mercury Racing digital throttles and pop me into the Cigarette's back seat. I know our 1350 torque curves from the lab, but it's different at sea, in a boat this size, surrounded by my new best friends – getting torque-smacked into the back seat. What a spectacular ride!
Cap'n Henry shows the MTU engine room of "Remember When" to Cigarette's Skip Braver and Z48 owner, Derek Wachob.
We rounded the southern-most point of the USA, passed a cruise ship and pulled into our place along side "Remember When" which happens to be Mr. Rosatti's Christensen yacht. (Interesting – he was John on the Cigarette, but became Mr. Rosatti when I saw "our" tiny 50 foot, 2,700 hp Merc powered, tender beside "his" 162 foot, 3,600 hp MTU powered mothership!) Power to weight, speed and fuel economy? Advantage Cigarette. Everything else? Advantage Christensen.
John Rosatti made this a very special trip for me. He is a most gracious host. Thank you for the sore facial muscles. I haven't smiled so much in a long time.
Skater Nation had a twin 1350 powered Skater on display. These look great!
Oh, there was a Poker Run Village with exhibits by Mercury, Cigarette, Shogren and Skater Nation among others. And boat racing, too. Even Bob Bull's spectacular racing performance with 1350s (winning the 2011 SBI World Championship) was muted by the tragic human losses. I haven't frowned so much in a long time. What a roller coaster of emotions – my week in the Keys.
Video link to our trip.
Fred, I couldn't have recapped the week any better. It was a roller coaster of emotions. My thoughts and prayers go out to families of Bob, Jeff & Joey – RIP.
It was good to see you in Key West, Vicki.

Supreme Court Decisions by Topic > CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT: OPINIONS >
ON APPLICATION TO VACATE STAY
No. A-767 Argued: --- Decided: April 21, 1992
PER CURIAM.
Harris claims that his execution by lethal gas is cruel and unusual in violation of the Eighth Amendment. This case is an obvious attempt to avoid the application of McCleskey v. Zant, 499 U.S. 467 (1991), to bar this successive claim for relief. Harris has now filed four prior federal habeas petitions. He has made no convincing showing of cause for his failure to raise this claim in his prior petitions.
Even if we were to assume, however, that Harris could avoid the application of McCleskey to bar his claim, we would not consider it on the merits. Whether his claim is [p654] framed as a habeas petition or § 1983 action, Harris seeks an equitable remedy. Equity must take into consideration the State's strong interest in proceeding with its judgment and Harris' obvious attempt at manipulation. See In re Blodgett, 503 U.S. 236 (1992); Delo v. Stokes, 495 U.S. 320 (1990) (KENNEDY, J., concurring). This claim could have been brought more than a decade ago. There is no good reason for this abusive delay, which has been compounded by last-minute attempts to manipulate the judicial process. A court may consider the last-minute nature of an application to stay execution in deciding whether to grant equitable relief.
The application to vacate the stay of execution of death is granted, and it is ordered that the orders staying the execution of Robert Alton Harris entered by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in No. 92-70237 on April 20, 1992 are vacated.

LANGUAGE MATTERS
Huntington Beach, CA92648
Re: Language
As one of my friends was saying recently, language matters. Words matter. Your president's recent comments on the spousal abuse affair speak loudly as to his concern for the victimizer over the victim, the male over the female. They speak loudly as to his lack of concern for matters of national security, when it comes to his own team. So many in the White House, even key staff members—even his own son-in-law!—lack the proper security clearance. He was loud enough in his choice of words on this subject for his Democratic rival in 2016. But now?
But I started out to write about his budget announcement yesterday. Admittedly, I was unable to pay undivided attention—I happened to be on the elliptical walker at the gym—but I was frankly appalled by both the content of his comments and by the language he deployed to communicate it. The truth is, language and content are inseparable. You cannot convey complex, subtle ideas in impoverished language. You cannot even conceive of such an idea without the words and syntax in which to formulate them.
Trump lacks both words and syntax. His language is basic, primitive, ego-based. He spoke of his "great"—and to my mind quite unnecessary—restoration of the military; of the "great" infrastructure that would result from his paltry $200 billion in federal money (to be supplemented, magically, to the tune of $1.5 trillion by state and private contributions). The whole presentation was, to my mind, simplistic, predictable and calculated mainly to boost the ego of the deliverer—not to mention his financial interests. He is, after all, as he once more repeatedly affirmed in yesterday's announcement, a "great" builder.
Honestly, Congressman, I despair of any significant progress for this country while that man occupies the Oval Office. His language confirms what his general behavior suggests: he remains, emotionally and intellectually, a child. Does it not feel somehow shameful to keep supporting him as you do?
Libby Frolichman February 13, 2018 at 8:29 AM
Beautifully written and certainly with a more extensive vocabulary than our president possesses.

Sandals Planning to Reopen Most of Its Caribbean Resorts in June
Sandals Resorts is planning to open the vast majority of its Caribbean resorts in June, a company spokesperson confirmed to Caribbean Journal.
"We are pleased to announce that all of our resorts (with the exception of our Bahamas resorts) are scheduled to reopen on June 4, 2020," a spokesperson told Caribbean Journal.
That includes Sandals and Beaches resorts in Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, Saint Lucia and Turks and Caicos.
Of course, the reopening will depend on those destinations' choosing to reopen their borders by those dates.
"There have been several ongoing travel restrictions, airport closures, and increased government protocols, which have caused border closure extensions. These dates are, therefore, subject to change, as they are dependent on those factors," the company said.
In effect, that means the company will be prepared to reopen if borders are open by that date.
As for Sandals' pair of branded resorts in The Bahamas (in Nassau and Exuma), the plan is for a scheduled opening date of July 1, 2020. (The Bahamas, too, currently has closed borders).
It's a major step for the all-inclusive brand — though much will also depend on how quickly key source markets like the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom begin to send travelers.
The announcement comes after Sandals released a broad list of changes to its operational and hygiene procedures in a nod to the new realities of travel.

Do you love DIYing / Painting? Then this "DIY Painting By Numbers - Universe Consciousness" is a MUST have. Great way to decorate your room and to release stress. Also makes a wonderful gift!
So much fun. Every day the urge to paint became very strong.


When we read something we always read it with a purpose. For instance, we read the front page of a newspaper to find out what the latest news is; we read a train or airplane time-table to find out when they leave and arrive, we read a telephone directory to find out someone's telephone number.
What about books? We read books for different purpose. We need a novel for enjoyment; we read a travel book either for enjoyment or to find out about a city or a country we want to visit; we read a textbook to learn about the subject we are studying and so on, so forth.

SKUDGE-PT001 | STEPHEN BROWN | OUT NOW!
Screen print on Earth Positive, Organic Cotton.
Our album is out now in selected stores.
Full length double LP from Stockholm's biggest sound, Skudge..TIP!
Although the duo was only formed in summer 2009, they have already moved out of near anonymity to become precious favourites of deep, warehouse-styled house and techno fans. Their output to date has moulded together classic ideas and modern aesthetics with a keen sense of minimalism: their looped soundscapes are often bare, but never lacking, and the intersection between house and techno seems to be the point at which the duo most often find themselves. As a result, that's the area most explored on their debut album, Phantom, which conjures up exactly the sort of adjectives you should imagine given its title.
It kicks off with eerie chambers of grainy sound, synth melancholy and frosty mists that hang in a beatless air for just over three minutes. From there the thumping beats swing until the end of the album – sometimes accompanied by a little trippy sonic colour, sometimes devoid of anything but filters, echo and decay, and sometimes paired with cavernous claps, but always with a solid, ground shaking resonance and, more importantly, a noticeable analogue vitality.
Although the bold forms Skudge produce are optimised for maximum dancefloor impact, there's also a deftness to their designs: sounds and vocal snippets are subtly, selectively employed to imbue each loop with an extra infectious sense of swing; or to underline a groove or accentuate an emotion. Once you enter into Phantom, then, you'll be in no hurry to get out the other side.

See James Cameron in 3D and Zero-G
By Aubrey Cohen on August 30, 2010 at 2:30 PM
"Avatar" director James Cameron will help raise money for the X PRIZE Foundation by taking part in a ZERO-G Experience flight Oct. 9 from Van Nuys Airport, Calif., the foundation announced Monday. The fund-raising part comes in that Cameron is a sweetener for the three seats on the flight up for auction on eBay.
G-FORCE ONE, a modified Boeing 727-200 aircraft, flies parabolas to create the limited-gravity and weightless experience.
"Martha Stewart, Ozzy Osbourne and Stephen Hawking are just a few notable passengers who have flown with ZERO-G and proclaimed it to be one of the most thrilling experiences of their lives," the auction news release proclaimed.
Cameron, serves on the Exploration Advisory Committee for the X PRIZE Foundation, an educational nonprofit that offers prizes for radical breakthroughs they see as benefiting humanity. Other celebrities booked for the flight include Fox Films Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jim Gianopulos and Tim Ferriss, author of "The 4-Hour Workweek."
The starting price for a regular ZERO-G Experience is $4,950. How much more would you pay to bounce off the walls with Cameron, Gianopulos and Ferriss? I'm guessing Stewart, Osbourne and Hawking would be a better draw.
The action is set to run from Tuesday through Friday.

We have finally come to a point where we get another break in the semester. I'm not sure about you, but for me, these breaks come at the point where I'm ready to collapse and forget about reading and writing for a week and concentrate on having some semblance of a life once again.
However, I also have a problem: the horrible habit of leaving my work until the last minute and just praying that somehow I will actually be able to get work done when I'm at home while I try to convince myself I have all the time in the world. In all honesty I never do. Reading week is a waste on me for getting work and readings done, but my beauty sleep is spot on.
So this reading week I am presenting myself a challenge, to actually get work done. I am now in my second semester of my fourth year and getting ready to graduate, and I still haven't really figured out the trick to this, but I am up for the challenge.
I just think about how nice it will be to have a bunch of work done over the break and avoid pulling my hair out on the night before classes start up again, completely freaked out about pulling an all-nighter.
Now I'm not saying you should use your entire week for nothing but work. It is a break after all, and you deserve some much-needed relaxation.
My action plan is to reserve 2 or 3 days to get all my work done. It is daunting, but here's the catch, I put aside theses work days at the beginning of the break and if I don't finish all my in that time period, I still have a little more time to do so. I can work for most of the day, and socialize in the afternoons and evenings, or the other way around.
It's not a perfect solution or plan, but just keep reminding yourself that you can still get your sleep and socialization in without losing all your hair.

I have played a lot of Clash of Clans, and love that it mirrors it perfectly. I prefer this theme, over their beat-like-a-dead-horse medieval fantasy theme. I'll get to the point. I wanted to make everyone aware of an action i have taken. I noticed that there are a lot of "hack" games out there, mostly single player, that are on the twitch directory. So i took it upon myself to submit a request to add Hackers, with an S, artwork, and game description; to the Twitch Game Directory. Now effectively making it possible to stream Hackers, with it being your "playing: ???" game notification. You're welcome ! I hope the community grows, after this. See you on the Darknet..

What is Electroneum (ETN)? This is a mobile cryptocurrency. The project is rather non-standard. In order to assess the prospects of the ETN token, we need to understand the features of this mobile platform.
Electroneum is a system for making instant payments between customers and sellers of goods and services. The mobile platform is on the stage of improvement but already has a good functionality. It is a conventional mobile application.
At the time of writing, Electroneum is available for Android. The app version for iOS is under development (test version has been approved by Apple).
Anyone who installs an application on his / her smartphone will be able to make payments in ETN cryptocurrency. The developers promise that soon you can also easily send Bitcoin from your smartphone. In fact, the Electroneum application is also a crypto wallet. It is very convenient. But we cannot say anything definitively about of the wallet's safety.
In the nearest plans of the company is the creation of an e-commerce system, which, if desired, can be integrated with payment terminals.
The cryptocurrency is a means for instant payments, as well as an e-commerce system. The developers believe that their token will soon become a popular means of payments.
Mining of the crypto is quite unusual. If you download Electroneum app, you will get a mining farm in your pocket. We cannot say that this is a very profitable thing. But constant earning small ETN quantities is nice at least.
As you can see, the cryptocurrency is not available on the most popular exchanges (like Binance, for instance). This means that ETN has a way to go.
Users of the mobile cryptocurrency are waiting for its listing on top exchanges. Many forumers rumoured about a high probability that ETN would be listed on Coinbase by the end of 2018, but something went wrong. Nonetheless, the last quarter of 2018 was fruitful for the project, since in November last year the ETN token hit the Liquid platform.
We are especially interested in another thing. On 5 October 2018, company representatives announced the introduction of KYC (know your customer) procedure. This should help the project to move forward and offer ETN as a form of payment for goods, services and products. Hence the crypto will probably gain mass adoption.
Against the background of quite good news for the project, we want to draw your attention to the fact that the Electroneum website does not indulge users with information about events. The last news about the mentioned KYC-compliance was published on 5 October (last year). News once a 3-month period? Our website publishes the necessary information much more often.
The first atomic swap with SimpleSwap.
Providing the ability to purchase ETN with PayPal on CryTrex.
Electroneum token is one of those altcoins, which significantly decreased in price during the summer of 2018. The crypto dropped by 30 times. We believe that this is due to the fact that the project platform hadn't had full functionality. Some Reddit users think that this crypto is the future, in particular, due to a mobile miner and instant payment technology. In addition, ETN is a very searchable cryptographic currency in Google and has over 2.5 million registered users.
From the beginning of 2019, according to the plans of the Electroneum team, the platform should operate in full. This should help the cryptocurrency become more stable.
Top exchanges have not yet listed the mobile-based coin. We expect this to happen within 6 months with the crypto's growth caused by listings.
Of course, not everything is so simple. In our opinion, the project does not have a sufficient information base. Its website is unlikely to attract serious investors. The developers' plans to engage 100 million users look too optimistic. However, the launch of the iOS app is expected soon, this is a promising sign.
Well, will Electroneum rise? You can see our 2019-2020 forecast in the table below.
The token rate in 2020 can show pretty good dynamics. This product is dependent on the mass adoption but very convenient for ordinary users.
Disclaimer: We have expressed our opinion regarding the prospects of this cryptocurrency. Your opinion may differ from ours. You should not make serious investments based on one point of view.
