Speedway Blvd. Bring money for popcorn and snacks.
House of Stairs
: This quartet's effortless-seeming blend of fusion jazz, pop and soul mixes well with J. Dilla-inspired beats, varied electronics and loops. It doesn't hurt that singer Holly Pyle has a graceful, liquid-like voice, sort of like Rickie Lee Jones, or that band member Shea Marshall plays a multitude of instruments, including bass clarinet, saxophone, harmonica, accordion and synth. Their song "Zoloft"—a blend of fusion, horns and unpredictable time signatures—manages to sound like how you feel when you actually "want to feel again," but in the best possible way. With Katie Haverly on Friday, Dec. 2, at the Flycatcher, 340 E. 6th St. 9 p.m. 21+
: One of the worst subgenres of all time, ever, in the history of recorded music, is "math rock." The very classification suggests everything that's not sexual, or swingy, or rooted in flesh and blood. It's the antithesis of anything visceral. Math? That's a study of numbers and equations and calculus and algebra and geometry. What fun! And rock? That's a heavy, shapeless mass of minerals that sits on the ground absolutely motionless. To us here at the
, "math rock" sounds like a category some doughy white Midwestern rock critic came up with back in the late '90s to describe and embrace a style of boring music made by similar-looking white dudes, music that finally related to the very things he loved in college. Yuck! Rock 'n' roll, by its very name, is supposed to be fucking and drugging and everything that pisses people off while giving sweaty goosebumps to those in on the joke. Well, Blessed (not the old New York City band that featured D Generation's Howie Pyro) gets called "math rock" a lot. Really, that just isn't right. Sure, this young Vancouver quartet incorporates brain-twistingly challenging rhythms that sometimes recall the subtle glories of ancient mad progsters like Caravan and Van Der Graaf Generator, and even jazz-guitar greats like John McLaughlin. But that ain't math, far from it. Don't ever call Blessed "math rock." They're too song-driven, and there's too much sexy swing and punk-rock verve. Besides, they kickass live. And boy can they play. With Mikey & the Shame on Sunday, Dec. 4 at the Flycatcher, 340 E. 6th St. 9 p.m. 21+. Free.
The Handsome Family
: Lord knows many folks fell in love with The Handsome Family for the first time in 2014 when the married duo's "Far From Any Road" was the theme song on killer season one of HBO's True Detective. (Boy did that tune's deceptive ghoul-country fit the show's smart, eerie subtexts.) Yes since the mid-'90s, The Handsome Family have been masterfully blending swampy twang, fractured laments, and bent John D. Loudermilk-style country with haunting folk and deadpan deliveries. They've managed to capture the moldy, creepy south too, Flannery O' Connor's south. It's where things are never as they seem, where heavier forces appear to be at work, and subtle truths are revealed through troubled characters with unpredictable tragic flaws. But there's lots of empathy and comedic turns too. Indeed, the Handsome Family's remarkably literate, and the well-crafted, strangely beautiful songs are compulsively listenable. They've been imitated too, but nothing can touch them. Their latest full-length (their 11th),
, is drawn from tangible obscurios, animal or otherwise, in the American west. It's earning mad props in requisite critical circles (NPR, natch) and called an "epic western goth masterpiece." With Drunken Prayer on Tuesday, Dec. 13 at Club Congress, 311 E. Congress. 8 p.m. 21+. $12-$15.
Sara Watkins
: This fiddler, guitarist, ukulele player and singer in Nickel Creek has recorded with everyone from Hank Williams Jr. to Fiona Apple to John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin). But ever since releasing her first solo album in 2009 she's proven herself to be a singing and songwriting force. Her songs and voice swing painlessly between country weepers, honky-tonk stompers, bluegrass-y testifiers and rock 'n' roll rousers, and there's a sense of optimism that streams through everything— even the sadnesses—and in that way she's like Emmylou Harris. She has a way of seeing clear water beyond the mud. Get tickets soon, this show will sell out. With River Whyless on Thursday, Dec. 8. 191 Toole, 191 Toole Ave. 7 p.m. $20-$22. 21+.
The Tucson Rock Lottery 2016 Benefit
: Ok, on the morning of Dec. 10, 25 Tucson music stars from a wide range of musical backgrounds will organize into five groups through a random, lottery-based selection. The groups will then head off to different locations, create a band, name it, pen four tunes, and learn one cover. They have 12 hours to pull this off. These spanking new crack combos will then perform their hastily created tunes that night. Says the press release: "The challenge for these musicians is to try and go beyond their personal and musical differences and work together to create a unified group project …" Let's get it on! This year's winning annual event benefits the super worthy Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona. Cost is five bucks or two food items. (For info on the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona and what food items are needed, visit communityfoodbank.org.) Saturday, Dec. 10 at The Flycatcher, 340 E. 6th St. Tucson. 9 p.m. 21+.
Lil Durk
: This melodic rapper from south Chi-town mellows down easy on smooth soulful flows. When he kicks it up some there's still that chill. It's compelling too because he's offering up monologues from the streets, without all the tired suckerpunch braggadocio. Seems dude's got a super-sensitive side, like a modern day Marvin Gaye, and women swoon at his shows. Durk's only been around since 2011, but since rising out of the OTF collective, and releasing a series of monster mixtapes and signing with Def Jam, he's getting close to a million monthly spins on Spotify, and his latest album (
Lil Durk 2X
) boasts stars like Yo Gotti and Ty Dolla $ign. Friday, Dec. 9 With Club XS, 5851 E. Speedway. $25-$28. 7 p.m. All ages.
Fat Nick
: This 22-year-old rotund wonder rose to fame basically on YouTube (watch the perfectly preposterous and shoestring-budgeted
Nick and Pouya Show
), and cleverly titled group The Buffet Boys. But this dude—who kinda resembles a darker Michelin Man—is hardly here-today-gone-tonight flash. See, he came up a bored teen—skater, high school dropout, dealer etc.—who found his calling (with running bud Pouya) slinging truthful yet filthy phrases, and doing so with unbridled aplomb, as if he was born to do it. So it's little wonder the kids are diggin' ole Fat Nick, a superstar of underground rap whose street sizzle's taking him mainstream. With Lil Peep, Smokepurpp and Dom Krez on Saturday, Dec. 10. 191 Toole, 191 Toole Ave. 9 p.m. All Ages. $15-$40.
Jacob Acosta
: The Tucson local, Jacob Acosta plays a free show at the local brewery only weeks before his new album release. Acosta has called Tucson home for the past eight years and released nine records (yes, nine!) since 2008. His newest,
Desert Sounds,
drops early '17 and will feature music all about Arizona and the Southwest. 8 - 10 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3 Borderlands Brewing Company, 119 E. Toole Ave. Free, bring money for drinks and food.
Seu Jorge
: The Brazilian musician and actor will take to the downtown stage to honor the late David Bowie in his Life Aquatic Bowie-tribute tour. Jorge started out in the favela of Brazil where he was born and raised. He made a name for himself as a songwriter on the streets and he considers American soul singer Stevie Wonder a major musical influence. This event is all ages. doors at 7 p.m., show at 8 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 1. The Rialto Theatre, 318 E. Congress St. $38 - $59.

As most of us know, a lot of knowledge we use to do our jobs come from the people we work side-by-side with.
And as leaders in learning and development, it is important that we understand this and provide the tools and technology to support and enhance this.
I believe that embracing this is part of a shift that is happening today in our industry. We are looking for new ways to extend learning beyond a single event and create communities for sharing knowledge.
One person who can do that well is John Delano of Saltbox. As John discusses in our conversation, salespeople are on the cutting edge of informal learning and social learning. "They learn from their peers, they learn from their customers, and they learn typically by scouring the Internet," John said. "The other thing about salespeople is … they like snippets of information."
I had the opportunity to work with John at T-Mobile. John was a thought leader inside the organization and he was always advocating social and informal learning amongst other things. John and I always have great conversations about learning. One of John's favorite sayings is, "What they want to know, when they want to know it and how they choose to learn it." This is part of John's vision of what learning and development should be, and it has led him to the path of creating a tool to enhance this type of learning.

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Popcorn
Cinnamon Toast Crunch popcorn is pretty much the best combination of snack and breakfast foods we could ever think of. Make it for a party, or because it's Monday.
It's about time I combine two of my favorite things.
Sleeping and eating.
Oh wait, that won't work.
CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH and POPCORN.
Yeahhhh, that's what I'm talking about.
The best cereal on earth (that I never, ever, ever keep in my house!) and the greatest snack in the whole wide world. Match made in heaven, right? The only question is, how and why have I not ventured into this territory before?
Side note: If you couldn't read between the lines, I don't keep it in the house because I can't keep my hands off of it. I have zero self-control. My mother-in-law buys it for me when we spend a week with them in the summers. It's the one time a year I indulge.
As I've done with previous popcorn creations, I made sure the Cinnamon Toast Crunch love was present in every single bite of this addictive snack. I achieved this by crushing up some of the cereal and leaving some of it whole. That way the flavor is spread throughout the entire batch of popcorn (adhered by creamy white chocolate), but you still get to see and taste the whole cereal pieces too.
I probably sound like a broken record but this is important: You must pick out the unpopped kernels before putting on the white chocolate. It only takes a minute or two and it will save you hours of dental work.
Here's how I do it:
- Pop the corn using an air popper. Preheat it for a few minutes to minimize the number of un-popped kernels.
- Give the bowl a little shakey-shake.
- Pull the popped corn out of the bowl and put it on a rimmed baking sheet. The un-popped corn falls to the bottom when you shake it, so this is really quite easy.
- Toss out all the half-popped and un-popped kernels.
- Put the popped corn back into the bowl and proceed with the recipe!

Terry and the Peachers
By Michael Arram
This story is the second of the Peacher saga, and follows on from 'The Decent Inn'. It takes up some of the loose ends and develops some of the marginal characters in the earlier story, particularly Terry O'Brien, who I suppose is the genuine hero in it, as he is in the other stories in which he will appear. It continues also the story of the romance of Matthew White and Andy Peacher, and that of their friend Paul Oscott. The institutions named in it are (almost) all imaginary. Matthew's home university is in an entirely fictional university city in England somewhere between Reading and Swindon and its resemblances to any real university are simply generic. In later stories it is called Cranwell, and there is no allusion intended to Cranfield University. The persons described in the story are also fictitious and bear no resemblance to any living person.
The story originally appeared in the Nifty archive, and many thanks to www.iomfats.org for consenting to host it here. It contains graphic depictions of sex, mostly but not entirely between young males. If the reading or possessing of such material as this is illegal in your place of residence please leave this site immediately and do not proceed further. If you are under the legal age to read this, please do not do so.
Terry O'Brien turned nervously into Finkle Road, pulled his baseball cap low over his eyes and started counting the houses. He got over on to the side with the odd numbers. Finkle Road had been sadly altered by the nearby university. Terry was a native of the city, and he remembered when it had been an ordinary road with families and kids. But the expansion in higher education had its effect. From five thousand students, the university had grown in ten years to fifteen thousand. Spreading from the east, one by one, houses had been rented to students or snapped up by the university accommodation service. Those residents who found themselves surrounded by students soon found reasons to sell up and get out. Terry knew why. Students were as different from each other as anybody else, but most of them did like a drink and a good time, and some of them had no self control. Also they were young and their parents were no longer there to tell them to keep the noise down. People in Finkle Road soon got fed up with dark figures throwing up over their garden wall, their wheelie bins set alight and the unrelenting dull thump of the bass beat of a stereo at maximum volume through the wall at two in the morning. Also, a lot of residents did not like the fact that the university's expansion drew in many new students with yellow or brown skins. A BNP candidate had nearly been elected for the Northside council ward last year.
Terry was nineteen, and he was not a student. He had achieved his mediocre A levels the previous year, but he had not applied for a degree course. He couldn't raise the enthusiasm. He knew he was bright, but he also knew that he didn't get much of a buzz from study for its own sake. He told his parents he wanted to take a year to think about his future. They weren't too happy, but they didn't complain too loudly. Like him, they lived uncomfortably close to Finkle Road and, like him, they had learned to faintly resent what the university was doing to their neighbourhood. 'Student' was a word that was rarely used with approval in the O'Brien household, especially as his father was a police inspector who frequently dealt with the student population in its least attractive moods.
Then there was the other reason for the hiatus. Terry was gay. He had been perfectly open about it to his parents since he was sixteen, and they had reluctantly conceded the point. His mother had even got to the point of getting interested in talking about possible boyfriends - not that he showed any sign of settling down, and his mother would have found it hard to believe some of the things he had got up to since he came out.
He had been open about his orientation in the sixth form of his Catholic comprehensive, and no one had been too surprised when he came out. To begin with, Terry had been a keen dancer since he had been a small boy. This by no means meant that Terry was gay, but dancing was not what his mates did. It made him different. It also left him with a languid grace and quick movements which brought him close to the edge of effeminacy, and with his mobile face, his slightly drawling voice and his air of being always on display, no one was at all surprised when Terry confirmed he was gay.
Coming out had led to one or two difficult moments, but somehow Terry got away with it. For all his affectations, his multiple ear piercings and his drawl, he was a genuine and friendly sort, full of humour, and his avowedly hetero friends had stuck by him loyally. For he was popular despite being so obviously different. A lot of it was because in Year 10 he had been the star of a blinding school production of Peter Pan which had even been reviewed in the national press when the teacher in charge took it to a student drama festival. His supple dancer's body, his preternatural self-possession, his elfin, amused face, his thick blond curls and contrasting black eyebrows had made him into a stunning fifteen-year-old Peter; all he had needed was a pair of pointy ears. So he had become a school hero, a status he had never lost even though he had come out. People just shrugged. Terry had always been different.
There was talk of auditions at the Royal School of Dance. But Terry turned out to be a Lost Boy in more than just the theatrical sense. He could not motivate himself, and would not be motivated. Local YMCA shows, tutoring ladies' disco fitness groups, and support roles at the ballet group were the limit of his modest ambition. His female friends – of whom he had quite a few - and his dance teachers could only throw their hands up; he was worth so much more.
It was because of one particular old school friend that he was walking down Finkle Road that dull February morning. The unrequited love of his schoolboy years had been his oldest friend, Paul Oscott. Paul had then lived a few doors down from his family home, but he had lived a very different life from Terry. Paul's father had died of cancer when he was twelve, after a long and painful illness. It had destroyed Paul's childhood and unhinged his mother. Home for Paul became a battleground and a place of squalor. What was worse was that Paul had many of the gifts Terry had not got: he was intellectually alert, focused and committed. Yet, different though they were they had been friends since Sunday school in their church of St Francis, and, although Paul was a year above Terry in school, they had been inseparable for many years. In Paul's teens, he had frequently had to take refuge in Terry's bedroom from the rage and abuse of his mother.
It was on sleepovers with Paul that Terry had begun fully to realise his difference from other boys. Paul was not a particularly good-looking boy, he was thin and gawky, but he had assurance, a quick wit and a kind, open face and Terry had gradually and tragically fallen in love with him. At last, one night when they were fourteen and fifteen, it had got to the point where mutual dares had got the two of them naked together on Terry's bed. Kneeling between Paul's splayed legs Terry had taken his thin member in his hand and his own had sprung to full erection. With Paul staring at him but not drawing away, and breathing hard, Terry had slowly masturbated his friend, his own cock straining. He still dreamed of those ecstatic moments, his hand cupping Paul's dark and hairless balls, and then stroking up the narrow length of his penis, the foreskin opening and closing on its long purple head, the clear precum glistening as it leaked out of Paul's slit. As he was walking, Terry's cock enlarged and stiffened at the recollection of it. Then came the moment when Paul had moaned and lifted himself off the bed as his ejaculation had spattered his belly and his thin pubic hair with creamy gobbets.
Terry knew from then on what he was. Paul had offered nervously to return Terry's attentions, but Terry wouldn't let him that night. He had cleaned his friend up, and leaned in to kiss his mouth, but Paul couldn't go that far, and turned his head. Still, from time to time, Paul had not resisted Terry's earnest suggestions of sex play. Paul had masturbated him, and on one glorious occasion had sucked his cock, but mostly Terry had serviced Paul. He had become devoted to stimulating Paul's genitals, his mouth had become familiar with every square centimetre of his friend's crotch, and Paul always became very excited if his tongue strayed below his testicles. But as the years passed they both realised that Paul may have had bisexual leanings, but he was definitely not gay.
Slowly their teenage sex play became different for both of them. Paul sadly admitted to Terry that he felt guilty for using him, that when his lips were wrapped around his cock, he often came only because he was fantasising that he was inside a woman. And Terry gloomily came to the conclusion that he was entirely in love with his geeky but so very kind and so very clever friend. It was a love which could not be returned, as they both grew to know. But still there was the sex. Terry needed it, and Paul went along with it for several reasons. Paul may not have loved Terry then, but Terry was at least dear to him, and, to be honest with himself, the release of sex was always welcome.
When Paul had just turned seventeen, after a terrible day for Paul at home, they had spent one last night together and, desperate for love and desperated to be loved, Paul had entered Terry's anus and for once made full love to his friend. Paul had woken in the night to find Terry shaking with tears beside him. He had taken him in his arms, and for the first and only time as a boy, deeply kissed and lovingly embraced him, wiping away his tears and whispering tenderly into his ear. Terry had clung to him, feeling now for the first time what it was really like to be held in a lover's arms. It had never happened since. Not long afterwards, Paul had run away from his home, and made a new life. He had found a refuge, ironically, in a student house, and there he had found purpose and direction, and new horizons.
Terry lost what little connection he had with Paul Oscott when he had gone on to university: something he had done against all the odds. But Terry had decided that from then on there would be no lies in his life. He came out to his parents and friends. Paul had supported him while he was still in school, and his other friends had rallied round. The school chaplain too had been a tower of strength, and it had all gone far better than he had a right to expect. But he had found no new love. If there had been other gay boys in his year, they kept themselves to themselves.
Terry had drifted into what night life his small university city offered. He even got a job clearing tables in the local gay pub in the back streets of the city centre, the King's Cross. He got friendly with a lot of the customers, but he was known there as untouchable. Frank, the manager, would not allow his bar workers to get into relationships on the premises and he had a wicked way with his tongue. He was protective of Terry, for Terry had grown into the unconventionally handsome young man he had always promised to be: thick and curling golden hair, usually gelled-up in spikes, a pointed face lit up by fascinating, laughing hazel eyes. Like his Paul, he was on the slim side, but was not so tall as to become gawky, as Paul had. He still had all his boyish quickness and grace, and now it was combined with a young man's strength.
Terry had not found love, but he had found plenty of partners. A particularly passionate recent affair with a trans-gender boy his own age had been the most extreme example so far of his desire to be outside society's boundaries. He liked to shock. In some of his more exhibitionist moods there was no doubt, even to the most unobservant, that Terry was a young gay and very proud of it. He had really admired his boyfriend Anthony as a free spirit, apart from his tendency to a funny but wearying bitchiness. For Anthony, the world was there to mock; he expected no kindness from it and he gave it no quarter. Terry had listed him in his personal sexual diary (which he liked to call "The Anals of Terry") as 'Anthony the Acid'. It had all ended in a glorious row, in which Terry had been abused in terms of such vituperative power that he had left Anthony admiring rather than hurt. But Terry was not like Anthony; he had too much generosity of spirit, too much love to give.
Today, for the first time in well over a year, that generosity had impelled Terry to go and seek Paul. He had laid aside his tight tee shirts, his multiple earings, bracelets and thick thumb rings. He had dressed down to what his less fashionable contemporaries wore, ball cap, bright white trainers and baggy tracksuit. Apart from his litheness of movement and quickness of eye, you might have thought he was a typical townie, because Terry was quite a gifted actor. He had even suppressed his usual physical grace to adopt the chav's macho swagger.
He was checking the doors down through the thirties and counting down to Paul's number, 25. Finally he found it. No. 25 was a terraced house, noticeably smarter than its neighbours. A professional builder had spent a lot of time replacing windows and cleaning up the stone façade and bay window; new curtains and a freshly tiled path added to the effect. The builder seemed still to be working on the place; at least a skip was outside the house, full of rubbish and uprooted bushes. He rang the bell; two minutes later he rang it again, and then again. He leaned into the patterned and frosted glass to see if he could see anyone moving inside. Finally he glimpsed a dark figure moving and he rang again. This time the door opened and it was Paul. He looked surprised, but recovered and grinned in his familiar and quirky way. He greeted his old friend with the old warmth, 'Hiya, Tel. Wassup? How long you been here? When did you join the townie gangs? You in the BNP now?'
'I bin ringin' the bell for two fuckin' hours, Paulie.'
'Two hours eh? Odd, 'cos I went out an hour ago to get some milk and there was no one here. Sorry, I was out the back working in the garden. Come in and I'll show you the place.' Terry walked into the hall. A lot of money had been spent on tidying the house, with new carpets, fresh paint and plaster work. It all smelled very fresh and clean. There were smart modern prints on the walls and expensive light fittings. Paul led him down the well-lit hall passage into the back kitchen, full of pine, glass and steel. Everything was clean, neat and tidy.
'OK place this, me mate,' Terry said approvingly. 'You fallen on yer feet.'
'Yup,' Paul agreed. 'What's more, it doesn't cost me a bean, I just have to manage it for the owner, and he lives up in Northampton, so he's not on me back much.' Terry noted how Paul's local accent had evaporated away in eighteen months at university. It made him a little uneasy. In fact there were other things about Paul that made him uneasy. He had grown in ways other than physical. He was self-evidently and unselfconsciously cool. He had become a man, and, for all his wild life, Terry felt uncomfortably like a boy next to him. There were other indications of change in Paul's circumstances. It was winter, but Paul was tanned in the face and arms, while his glasses and clothes were foreign-looking and clearly very expensive. Terry wondered where the money had come from.
Paul made them a tea, and found sugar for Terry's cup. He gave him a tour of the garden. Great work was in progress. It had been cleared and turf rolls were stacked ready against a new timber fence. Paul had lately been laying a patio at the end of the garden. Bricks for an ambitious barbecue pit had been stacked up. A border had already been bedded in and planted. Paul surveyed it as proudly as if he were the lord of a manor.
'Come on into me room; the other lads'll be back soon.' They took their mugs upstairs into one of the front rooms, the one with the bay window. Terry sat in the window seat. The room was fitted up as a study bedroom, with a modern desk, on which was a laptop displaying as wallpaper the face of a very good-looking brunette with a wide smile.
Paul laughed as Terry noticed it, 'That's me girl... me Rachel.' There were other pictures of the same dark woman around the room, and on the bedside table, there she was pictured again, this time with two young men, all laughing into the camera in ski gear, their arms round each other's shoulders.
Terry recognised the men, as he could hardly fail to do, for theirs were not obscure faces. One, a boyish-looking blond with faint freckles and an impish, lively grin, was Andrew Peacher, eldest son of one of the richest men in the world, and on the other side of Rachel was the even more famous face of his partner, Matthew White, reckoned by the celeb mags to be high in the top ten of the most beautiful men in the western world. The rumour was that he'd just signed a huge modelling contract with a major international fashion house. But Terry could hardly avoid knowing them, because they had taken Paul into 25 Finkle Road three years before, given him a home and had helped him into the university they were then attending. Then later there had been a tabloid scandal, and Andy had been hounded out of England by a remorseless press persecution. After that Terry had lost track of Andy and Matt, but magazines and supplements that had come his way told him they were now living in the United States. He had seen an article on them before Christmas in a gay mag he bought. It had got up his nose. It made them seem remote, smug and spoilt in their big Californian mansion with its pool and its chandeliers. He had decided to despise them on principle.
Paul followed his gaze, 'You remember Andy and Matt, don't you?'
'As if I could forget all that fuss when you wuz in the upper sixth, Paulie. You couldn't get down Finkle Road 'cos of the reporters. And you wuz in the thick of it and lovin' every second of it too.'
Paul winced a little. 'It wasn't fun. The bastards crucified little Andy, and it broke poor Matt's heart when he ran for it. No it wasn't fun, believe me.'
'No offence, Paulie. I know they wuz good to you and all. So you still see them then?'
'Er yes... yes I do,' he went off into an abstracted moment before refocusing on Terry. 'I'm glad you came round, Tel. But something tells me that you're not just here for a social call, am I right?'
'So no small talk then, eh Paulie? No "how's yer mum and dad?" or "seein' anyone regular nowadays?" OK then, cut to the chase it is, me mate. Iss been quite a while since I seen you, hasn't it? I've not been doin' much to tell the truth. I've had the odd one-nighter; fact is I go lookin' for 'em. But thass why I'm here really, 'cos I had a one-nighter last week thass been sort of preyin' on me mind like.' Paul was frowning, but he didn't interrupt.
'It wen' like this. I met a guy, an older guy, in the Queen's 'bout three months ago. You know .. the King's Cross, what the students call the Queen's Cruise. Well Frank in the Queen's don't allow bar help to pick up followers. Says it annoys him and gives the place a reputation. Can you believe that? Anyway this guy was not a local; sounded like a Londoner to me, not that I'm very good wiv accents like. But we chatted over the bar, and he tried to hit on me, before Frank came up and made some of his cuttin' comments to both of us. He said his name wuz Johnny, which I suppose it might have bin.
I didn't see him again till last week, when he wuz in again wiv another bloke, who he called Laurie. Johnny got very friendly, and I quite liked him. He was sort of rough looking, but wiv a nice smile and very polite too. And when I was in the toilet he came in and suggested we meet up after closing time. So I did, and we went to a club, the Bentinck, you know it? Quite a few gays go there. After that he and his mate Laurie suggested we go back to his hotel, and to cut a long story short, we made out pretty energetically.' Terry looked under his long dark lashes at Paul, 'I always wanted to take two blokes at both ends at the same time, and I let 'em spit-roast me. Johnny was pretty rugged, but it wuz OK, I guess. Then they swopped round.'
Paul shifted in his seat, but looked impassive. Terry had hoped for more of a reaction. He continued, 'I slept wiv Johnny. He wuz quite a stud, and I found him on his way up me arse in the mornin' too when I woke up. Pissed me off a bit, as he hadn't put a condom on, so I made him take it out, which he did. But I let him talk me into a BJ. It was while I had my mouth round his cock and he was playing with me curls that his mobile went off, an' he pissed me off some more by startin' a fuckin' business meetin' while I was working like a good un on his dick; up an' down like a hydraulic pump I wuz. Made me feel quite unappreciated. You know how I take pride in me performance in oral sex, don' you Paulie.'
Paul smiled, but kept silent.
Terry shrugged, 'So there I was blowin' him off like a professional and there he was treatin' me like a street tart. It wasn' as if he was payin' me at all. I'd gone off him by then, believe me Paulie. But he said somethink that took me mind off me grudge. He mentioned the name of Paul Oscott.'
Paul snapped his full attention on Terry, and leaned forward in his chair, 'Me? He mentioned me?'
'Yup. I nearly bit his dick in half. He screeched and smacked me hard round the head, the bastard. So I got off him and grabbed me clothes. He was sort of apologising by the time I was heading for the door. But I went without a word. I don't put up with abuse. I was shaken too. I realised that when I discovered I was stark naked in the corridor wiv me clothes under me arm, with this family lookin' at me in total shock.'
Paul's smile grew a bit broader. He took off his glasses and polished them. 'OK Tel, so there you were in a hotel bedroom sucking off this guy who mentioned me in the course of a phone conversation. Can you remember what else he was talking about?'
'Not a lot me mate, sorry. When it started I was so annoyed I just blocked him out. But I heard him talk about Finkle Road, and that must have pulled me back to what he was saying. Somethink like "I'll get to work. I got the name... Paul Oscott, and it's no. 25." Then I clenched me jaws, he got some of me teeth, and Johnny boy leaped six feet from a sittin' position. Now you tell me somethink. Why would this hard bloke from London be interested in Paul Oscott, eh? 'Cos it seems to me that he was plannin' on surveillance.'
Paul shook his head, 'I really got no idea, Tel.'
Terry raised an eyebrow, 'Well you might not, Paulie, but if you ask me, it's all wrapped up in Andy and Matt innit? This guy's one of those tabloid hacks, I'd bet, after more dirt on yer mates.'
Paul shrugged, 'As an idea it'd be more convincing if Andy and Matt still lived here. But this is their old room. They left Finkle Road for good last October, and they aren't ever coming back.'
'Maybe Johnny's bosses don' know that yet.'
'Maybe. They'll soon find out though.'
The front door opened and the hall filled with male voices. Steps thumped up the stairs, and the noise of clinking and banging came from the kitchen. A voice shouted up to Paul, asking if he was in. Paul replied, but otherwise sat there brooding. Terry looked at him, remembering that same look on Paul's face when they had lain together in his bed when they were teenage lovers. The ache for Paul was still in his heart. He knew he would never lose it. Although he did not know it, his handsome face too was brooding, and Paul could read more of what Terry was feeling than he realised. Abruptly he leaned forward from his desk chair and took Terry's hand.
'You're a good mate, Tel. It can't have been easy coming here after all this time, but I really am glad that you did. I've missed you. I really have.'
Terry gave a pale smile. 'Yeah Paul, but we both know that I've missed you more, and for different reasons. Don' have to spell it out do I?'
Paul gripped his hand tighter. 'Which makes what you've done by coming here all the more generous. I'm sorry you've not been able to move on.'
'Yeah well don' say much for me do it? I'm a sad bastard, one fuck and I'm yours for ever.'
'It was a good fuck, though.'
'Yeah it was, wasn' it. Never had a better. Tell me Paulie, what did you feel when we wuz doin' it together, I think I gotta right to ask you that.'
Paul looked at his old friend thoughtfully, 'It was good, Tel, better than good. You're an artist with your tongue and you're also a delight to look at naked. But it was sex... good sex, but only sex. I was using you, and Tel, you deserve so much more than that.'
Terry looked at him for a while, 'Thass not quite true, is it?' It was a statement. Paul looked momentarily disconcerted.
'Why did you say that?'
'Cos that last night there wuz more than just sweat and semen involved. I know, I felt it. You din' have to screw me or kiss me the way you did that last time, but you did. So why?'
Paul took his hand from Terry's and took his time about replying. 'Is it love when I feel so sorry for someone's unhappiness that I'm willing to do anything for him?'
Terry snapped back, 'I'd say it wuz, Paulie.' But he softened immediately, 'Well, a sort of love anyway. Certainly more than anyone else has ever giv'n me.'
Paul said, 'Then let's leave it at that. You know I care for you a lot, Tel. You're my best and oldest, you were also my first. I won't say that our sleeping together was nothing, because you meant... mean a lot to me. For a long time you kept me sane and gave me a lot of affection and support, and I really owe you for that. But I've shared my bed with other people since. And one of them at least is very special to me. Your prince will come, Tel. I got some experience on this. You're a lovely bloke when people get past the big act. There is someone out there for you, and you'll meet him. I could tell you 'bout some friends of mine called Alex and Ben...'
'Save it, Paulie. I'm glad we had this talk. Iss cleared up a lot of things. Can we go on seein' each other?'
'There's nothing I'd like better. I owe you so much, Tel. A lot more maybe than you owe me. You're about the closest thing I have to family.' He paused, 'But in any case, there's more reasons now that we have to see each other, a lot more. This thing you walked into isn't going to go away, and I'm going to need your help, if you're willing. But it'll be anything but safe.'

Crispy Orange Stuffed French Toast Sticks
Kenya's school offers a wide array of amazing after school classes that I would have flipped for as a kid. For the first six months of Kindergarten the one that Kenya was desperate to be a part of was cooking, not only because it's taught by his beloved teacher, Maureen, but on account of the smells that waft out of her room in the late afternoon which captivate anyone at school in smelling range. Sadly, the cooking class was only available to 1st through 6th graders and each Wednesday he would watch longingly as the older kids filed out carrying their multi-course meals fit for a king, and ask me when he would be old enough to take the class.
Then something happened. The school made the bold decision to open cooking up to Kindergardeners for the last part of this year. I bet you can guess who was first in line to sign up. I've stood on my tip toes outside the classroom the past few weeks, peeking in at the 20 or so kids cooking their hearts out and must admit I've been pretty darn envious. These triumphant little ones leave every time with such pride, carefully holding their culinary masterpieces. Each week of class takes on a different theme, but the recipe that really caught my eye (and which Kenya inhaled before we made it to the car) was from the breakfast series which featured crispy French toast stuffed with orange zest and cream cheese. It's so rich and decadent, it could almost pass for dessert.
Kenya's so excited to re-create this recipe when he gets his class cookbook, but I couldn't wait that long and already re-created my version of it at home.
I'm really hoping that come summertime I can get a few extra minutes to myself in the morning while you-know-who prepares my breakfast!
Crispy Orange Stuffed French Toast Sticks (serves 2)
nut free
- 1/4 cup whipped cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
- 4 slices sandwich, french or challah bread, crusts on or off
- 2 large egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup heritage flakes cereal, crushed (corn flakes or your favorite flake cereal work great too)
- butter or oil, for greasing pan
1. In a bowl use a fork to whip the marmalade and cream cheese until throughly combined,
2. Spread the mixture evenly on two slices of bread and top with remaining bread creating 2 sandwiches.
3. Slice the sandwiches into 1 inch sticks.
4. In a bowl whisk the eggs and stir in the milk.
5. Place the cereal in a zipper bag and using a rolling pin or mallet crush into tiny pieces and pour in a flat shaped bowl.
6. Dip the sandwich sticks first in the egg mixture on each side and then into crushed cereal coating completely.
7. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or oil in a large sauté pan and cook the sticks over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side or until golden.
8. Serve with honey, maple syrup or on their own.

How fun that they offer a cooking class--and that they cook such creative dishes. These look great!
Do you think it could be baked so you could do a whole bunch at once?
I haven't tried that, but I'm sure it would work!
Jodi Veldheer
Trying these tomorrow morning! Might just smash up some strawberries and sugar instead of the orange marmalade. Thanks so much!
Oh this is so great! I'll have to make this with my five year old daughter.
Have you ever prepped this the night before and made it in the morning. Wondering if this recipe would hold?
I don't recommend that for this recipe because the bread will get too soggy!
We are on a breakfast kick around here! This was another big hit, though I did use a different kind of jam. They were delicious and relatively easy.

These were amazing! I did substitute apricot jam instead and added a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg to the egg batter! My kids have an even pickier pallet so I put peanut butter in the middle of theirs! Delish!
I made these this morning and they were delicious! They have a nice crunchy/buttery texture outside with a softer sweet inside, Thanks for the recipe!

Leafy Green Recipes For St. Patrick's Day
Eat Your Greens: Healthy St. Patty's Day Dishes
While a huge plate of corned beef, cabbage, and Irish soda bread washed down with a pint of Guinness is a St. Patty's Day staple, it's not exactly the healthiest way to celebrate this holiday. Mix it up and go green with these healthy recipes featuring low-calorie, high-fiber leafy greens.
Better Than Trader Joe's Kale Salad
Made with raw kale, edamame, garbanzos, and cranberries, this protein-packed salad is flavored with basil and mint. Your body is sure to appreciate that kale is rich in bone-strengthening calcium, as well as immune-boosting vitamins A and C.
Spinach, Apple, and Feta Salad

Don't have a ton of time? This salad made with fresh spinach, sliced apples, and feta cheese, and tossed with red wine vinegar and only takes minutes to prep. Spinach helps you get your fill of folate (great for pregnant and nursing mommas), iron, and potassium.
Rainbow Chard, Avocado, Asparagus Quinoa With Orange Champagne Vinaigrette
Keep reading for this delicious chard and quinoa recipe as well as a crostini appetizer featuring arugula.
Made with protein-rich quinoa, this dish features brilliantly colored rainbow chard, asparagus, and ripe avocado full of sweet flavor and fiber. Chard is rich in vitamins A, K, and C, and if you've never cooked with it, it acts similarly to kale, but loses a little more volume.

For a little predinner nibble, this crostini topping is made with baby arugula and fresh fava beans, and flavored with zesty mint and lemon, with a hint of parmigiano-reggiano. Arugula not only offers a uniquely spicy bite, but it's an excellent source of vitamin A, folate, calcium, and potassium.

If you have ADHD, you sense time differently … and very likely, not too well. It's in your brain wiring. You may find your pace is way too fast one day and inertia the next day. You may have already figured out that constantly using adrenalin and the rush of a deadline will wear you out physically and mentally. You may think 10 minutes have passed and it's actually been … an hour or more. You lift your head to check the time and it's 4:00 already; where did the time go, you ask yourself.
If you practice this one main approach I'll outline below, you'll get a better sense of time passing.
And importantly, this helps your your personal productivity in key ways:
- Getting started.
- Completing projects on time.
- Spending "enough" time on something, but not "too much," because you got addicted to whatever you were working on, with the feeling of being inspired in the flow or zone.
- Keeping track of days. Losing track when you got pulled into something, or pulled away by too many people.
Sense Time Better with "Time Markers"
Time markers anchor you in time. They come in all forms: visual, auditory, a sense or instinct of your body and mind, or they can come from other people [or in my case, my dog. Seriously, and I've heard this from others. You can tell time by my dog, Malik. Meals and breaks are at roughly the same day each day, give or take about 10 minutes.]
You may not ever "feel" time passing, but you will get more practiced at this and it will work.
Here are some examples of time markers to experiment with.
Beginning your day
- Wake time: Get up at the same time every day. This stabilizes [in your body and mind] a wakeup time, so you know where you're starting for the day. It gives you a relative sense of where you are in the day as time passes.
- Work time: Start your work day at pretty much the same time every day, within a 15 minute window. Same reason as above. The more you change the basics, the harder it is to manage the day.
- Each morning, write out a post it note with your morning routine, those small steps. If you can sail smoothly through the wake/shower/quiet time, calm routines: you're more likely to feel calm moving into the rest of your day.
- Work out of your home? Get dressed at [roughly] the same time every day. That's a marker to say your day has officially begun. If you vary the time, but your mind thinks of "getting dressed" as the official start of your day, then you'll be racing to catch up the rest of the day.
- Exercise, read, etc. in the morning: It doesn't need to be the same activity each day. You'll know you've focused on you first and your body will sense which part of the day it is.
Throughout your day, use routines to sense time and mark its passing
- Email: Read and respond 2-3 times daily. Those are time markers, when done consistently. The opposite is keeping email open all day, which gives you no time marker. Plus, it keeps you at a higher state of frazzle, reacting to others' needs instead of working on at least some of your own priorities.
- Close out your day around the same time: Review today and your plan for tomorrow.
- School: If one or more of your kids get home from school or activities at roughly the same time; that's a marker for you.
- Lunch: Eat it around the same time each day as a time marker. Especially important, as this means your day is half over.
- Breaks: Building in breaks during the day gives you a way to pause and reset your internal clock. Notice how you're doing and where you're at with your day's plan.
- Dinner/relaxation routines: Start these around the same time, so your body starts to wind down for a good night's, consistent sleep.
Other support: sounds, clocks, and other people
- Use sound: If you work out of a home office, grandfather clock chimes work well because you can hear them anywhere in the house. Use a phone timer. Apple/Samsung alarms work, but be stingy in how many you set or you'll probably ignore them.
- Lots of clocks: Put clocks all over the place. It's difficult not to notice the time passing. Cell phones don't work because you have to take them out or turn them on. Some people put clocks in the bathroom because it helps them keep track of time as they move through their morning routine.
- Other people: You may have a certain time of day you tend to phone or email your spouse, or a time when he/she might email you (a "good morning" email from work at a regular time.) Time marker.
- Accountability partner: One of my colleagues mentioned that she speaks with her accountability partner every morning at a certain time to discuss goals.
Last, organizing your day
- Task breakdown: Look at 10-15 minute steps, parts of larger tasks you need to get done. Write the steps right into your 'to do' list/app. Smaller steps help you watch time more carefully so you'll know time is ticking. And you'll have a greater sense of accomplishment, too, with more to check off !
- Observe yourself: Use a task and a time log. It's revealing to occasionally keep track of how long things take versus your estimates.
- Block your day: Organize your day so that – as one example – in the afternoons you take clients for organizing or coaching or whatever your business is. And in the morning, you work on running and managing your business (marketing, financial, business development). That gives you a midday time marker. Great if you are working at one company as well as building your own business.
- Print out a calendar with time slots and use it to organize and record your tasks. Again, it's visible and encodes it all in your mind better than typing or seeing it on a device/pc. With this in front of you, you'll readily see time passing during your days. But RIGHT in front of you; don't cover it up or put it aside.
On your mark, get set, go !

The melding of Republican conservative ideas with an anti-government Libertarian or Tea Party philosophy has led to a weird and inconsistent hybrid approach to politics. There are several Republican politicians who have railed against the Democrats and the Obama Administration for exhibiting too much government control and thereby being socialists. But now, those same politicians are criticizing Obama on how he has handled the BP oil spill clean up. Via Think Progress.
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), a darling of the tea party movement and a loyal ally to House Republican leadership, is known for decrying almost every form of government action as socialism. Bachmann has denounced emergency loans to banks, student lending programs, health reform, and regulations as examples of "gangster" government and onerous government takeovers. "People don't want the federal government to either own or control the private economy," she said.But despite her opposition to government, Bachmann took to the floor of the House of Representatives on Friday afternoon to slam President Obama for lacking "competence" because he did not use the government to seize ships to deal with BP's oil spill. "Where were the boats that could have been commandeered to be sent into this region to deal with the oil plume," Bachmann thundered with characteristic disgust:
BACHMANN: The administration, they were hands off. They didn't do anything. Where were the boats that could have been commandeered by the government to be sent into this region to deal with that oil plume as it was coming up in the water and destroying marine life? Nowhere to be found. Why? The administration was hands off on this policy.
And there there's Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA).
He spent much of the summer of 2009 mocking "Washington, D.C. and other officials" for seeking to "spend more money" during an economic downturn.Or how about Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA)?
But now, Jindal is furiously begging federal officials to spend more money assisting with the oil spill control and clean up.
Scalise denounced clean energy efficiency standards as "setting up a global warming Gestapo."He is now pleading for the federal government to takeover the oil clean up response.
Do these politicians want the government to be hands off or hands on? They can't have it both ways.
The Wonk Room's Brad Johnson put forth the progressive case for federal action here.

Let's get real.
For your business to succeed, you need a team of happy & productive employees.
Which means you need to keep your best people. Otherwise, you'll always be scrambling to get new ones onto your leaky ship.
But how can you keep your best people when we're at 3.7% unemployment? And when 90,000 headhunters like me are calling them every day?
Here's the irony:
To keep them, you need to help them advance their career. That's right… You have to do everything in your power to prepare them to leave you.
You need to help them advance their career. Develop new skills. Build their confidence. Master new skills.
But yikes. If you do that, they might leave you.
Or they may be so grateful …and learning so much… that they can't afford to leave you. Even when the phone rings.
These 2 goals conflict - growing them & keeping them. So, I found an expert Marti Konstant of Konstant Change, to help us make sense of it all. For 10 years, she's been developing the concept of 'Agile Careers.' She knows more about it than anyone I've met.
In this 20-minute conversation, she reveals what's most important to your best people. And how to ensure they never leave you.
In 1991, Mark Kaufman started as a physical therapist. 28 years later, he's built Athletico into the dominant force in physical therapy.
Based in Chicago, Athletico now has 400 Midwestern locations with 4,500 employees.
And importantly, Mark had the forethought in 2011 to have a third-party start measuring outcomes… something not often done in the field.
Recently, BDT Capital Partners made a significant long-term growth equity investment in the company.
In this 20-minute conversation, Mark reveals how he built the industry-leading company, one foam roller at a time.
Rachel Ohlsson is a Rockstar who recruits Rockstars.
Easier said than done.
As Manager of Talent for Chicago-based Oak Street Health, the fast-growing group of primary care centers for adults on Medicare in medically-underserved communities, Rachel's learned one of the keys:
The 'WOW!' interview.
Rockstar candidates who aren't impressed by the way you interview them aren't likely to say Yes.
In this 20-minute conversation, Rachel reveals everything she knows about the WOW! interview and how to incorporate it into your hiring process.

I really can't come to your party Mrs. Parker, I can't bear fools.' That's strange; your mother could.Dorothy Parker
"Dorothy Parker" was an American poet, short story writer, critic and satire/satirist, best known for her wit, wisecracks, and eye for 20th-century urban foibles.
From a conflicted and unhappy childhood, Parker rose to acclaim, both for her literary output in such venues as The New Yorker and as a founding member of the Algonquin Round Table. Following the breakup of the circle, Parker traveled to Hollywood to pursue screenwriting. Her successes there, including two Academy Award nominations, were curtailed as her involvement in left-wing politics led to a place on the Hollywood blacklist.
Dismissive of her own talents, she deplored her reputation as a "wisecracker". Nevertheless, her literary output and reputation for her sharp wit have endured.More Dorothy Parker on Wikipedia.

Anti-Mormon Liberal party wins municipal election and takes control of Salt Lake City's government on Feb. 18. Apostle John Henry Smith writes: "The Liberals carried the election by fraud, having 795 more votes than the people [People's Party]." Heber J. Grant writes in his journal, " It makes me sick at heart to think of Salt Lake being in the hands of the Liberals."
President Woodruff writes:
"Our Enemies Called liberals were resolved to Steal the Election and they did. They struck off hundreds of Names from the list of the peoples Party and brought into the City By Rail road hundreds of men who voted illegally so they got the majority in the Election. But the day past without any Blood shed."
The Apostles decide that "if the majority was small say 600, the fraud should be denounced vigorously, but if the majority was very large, not fight the result beyond making a showing of the frauds perpetrated."

Selecting Healthy Daphne
A couple of years ago I planted a Daphne facing east. However, it did not do well so I put it in a pot in April this year with potting mix and acid fertiliser. Unfortunately, it is giving up. What am I doing wrong?
In general terms, Daphne are not the easiest of shrubs to cultivate. They are incredibly rewarding with their perfume during winter months, but quite often a difficult plant to establish in the garden.
Part of the problem lies in the method of production before they reach the garden centre. They are often field grown in nurseries and then dug up and potted for sale. Daphne do not like root disturbance and often can be seen in some garden centers with yellow leaves, leaves falling or the leaves in a drooping position.
Selection of a very healthy specimen at the time of purchase is critical. In the garden, they have a preference for well-drained soil, rich in compost and in a position receiving good light, but not baking in hot summer sun.
Once established, Daphne will thrive requiring only a moderate amount of attention. Daphne Odora Rubra is by far the most successful home garden species. While they can be grown in containers, ensure the container is large enough for full root development and has sufficient drainage holes to avoid the potting mix becoming sodden.

The field of employment law is rapidly changing; federal and state laws governing the screening and hiring of employees, employer provisions of benefits to employees, grounds for layoffs and termination, and post-employment competition are in constant evolution. A critical part of any business for both employers and executives is employment relations. As with any aspect of business, addressing employment issues requires planning, negotiation, and sometimes litigation. Our firm expertly counsels employers and executives on navigating these matters.
Our firm focuses on efficiently protecting your interests in handling important and sensitive employment matters. Specifically, our firm can advise business leadership regarding many facets of business, from negotiating and drafting agreements with and on the behalf of key employees (including issues of equity compensation, non-competition, and trade secrets) to providing advice on executive and employee separation (including advising on the rights and obligations of former executives and employees). If these issues cannot be resolved through initial negotiations, our firm is equally adept at litigating cases involving alleged employment discrimination, the enforceability of non-compete agreements, and other disputes concerning the rights and obligations arising under employment agreements.
In either instance, our lawyers use their judgment and skills to avert and/or resolve employment issues expeditiously while protecting your interests and minimizing the disruptions to your core business and functions.
