    Independent Fails To Hail Any Gay or Bisexual Men As Important For Landmark Year

    The Independent Newspaper has failed to acknowledge any gay or bisexual men in its round up list of people who made 2015 a landmark year for LGBT rights.

    The Independent, home to the annual Rainbow List has failed to acknowledge any gay or bisexual men in its round up of the people who made 2015 a landmark year for LGBT rights.

    The list included Caitlyn Jenner, who many in the LGBT community have blasted as not being a good representative after claiming “If You Look Like a Man in a Dress, It Makes People Uncomfortable”

    The list, created by reporter Caroline Mortimer, hails, reality star Caitlyn Jenner, actresses Ruby Rose and Ellen Page, artist iO Tillett Wright and model Cara Delevigne as people who made “massive strides for equality and tolerance for LGBT people across the world.”

    Cara Delevigne is a former model who came out as bisexual in an interview with Vogue in July. She is in a relationship with singer St. Vincent and has now quit the modelling industry.

    iO Tillett Wright is an artist who photographs anyone who doesn’t indentify as “100% straight”.

    Earlier this year Johnny Depp’s daughter Lily Rose came out as not 100% straight.

    The list failed to mention the extraordinary efforts made by some gay and bisexual men in 2015 for LGBT rights across the globe.

    The only man mentioned on the list of just six people is Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, who along with other judges who legalised same-sex marriage in the US.

    We reached out for comment from the list’s creator Caroline Mortimer.

  • TECH REVIEW: Majority Newham DAB Radio

    TECH REVIEW: Majority Newham DAB Radio

    Ok, I admit it, not everyone knows this but I’m a DAB virgin!

    Newham Radio

    Yes, I know what it is – that’s Digital Audio Broadcasting folks but I’ve fallen out of love with radio over the years.

    This item is an ideal introduction to the genre of tech – it’s easy to set up, it’s easy to use and it’s easy on your pocket.

    It took 5 minutes to set up the radio and that included setting up the clock and alarm.

    This UK lifestyle brand, based in Cambridge, has 2 models on offer – the Newham and Chesterton (named after areas of their home town). I got my grubby little mitts on a Newham for this review and from the moment of first opening the box, it was true love.

    I’m a sucker for well designed tech, and this model fits that bill.

    The Newham is sleek and black and takes me back to the 80s with this tactile finish, its minimalist controls and blue display. It’s slick and not in a bad way. Quite ironic that the first channel that appeared was Absolute 80’s and I love the way that the unobtrusive display lets you know what song is playing – who needs Shazam?

    It’s controls in a chrome colour are simple and straightforward with easy to use scan and prev/next buttons to help you find and tune in to your favourite stations. Believe me, with this little beauty, you’ll be discovering more favourite stations.

    The unit weighs practically nothing and once charged will let you have 4-6 hours of playback so it’s ideal for carrying around as you Dyson or, you know, whatever you do.

    As mentioned before, the set-up is minimal, and sourcing decent stations is done for you – to some extent. You do have to store the ones you love as favourites but hey, you got to do some of the work, right?

    At a manageable 210mm x 180mm x 65mm, this unit isn’t huge – but doesn’t need to be. Following the trend for fitting lots into small units, this item has everything you need, from the headphone jack to a 2 line display, rotary volume control and clock/alarm – this is all you need to get your toes a-tapping and butt a-shaking to whatever tunes you prefer.

    Ok, let’s be frank, this isn’t a Roberts radio, it might not have that build quality but the price reflects this. It has a manageable £39.95 price tag, and more than delivers for that. It has everything you’d need to listening to DAB radio and still allows you to tune into FM too – if that’s your thing!

    As I’m writing this, I am singing my head off to Fame – coz I am gonna live forever ok, too much? Ahem, I love this little unit. I’m a convert to DAB. As someone who works from home, I listen to a lot of music and sometimes, just sometimes, prefer someone to choose the music for me? Apple Music gives you too much choice and I can see me getting more and more into radio, thanks to this item!

  • Justin Bieber Denies Erect Penis Pics Are His

    Now clearly as a publication, we’re not about to publish the pictures here – but we can tell you where they are…

    According to the hosting website, Queerclick the Justin Bieber erections are actually of his erect penis, however, the star himself told TMZ that it’s not his “junk”. They’ve kinda gone all Ms Marple on the photos – showing how his tattoos all match and how they all sync up from other topless photos. Both pictures posted are headless.

    From what we can gather, the pictures are from personal messages sent out, to whom we don’t know- with one of the pictures even asking whether the sender could “cum inside”.

    There are two pictures one of a side view and the other is a bird’s eye view.

    Last month Bieber’s peen broke the internet when a pap caught the singer in the all together whilst on holiday in Bora Bora.

    Many people have taken to the comments section of the hosting website – some claiming that the (rather large) appendage is as real as his talent, while some are positively enchanted by his bell end!

    Anyway, fake or otherwise you can see for yourself. Enjoy.

  • RECIPE | Green Eggs And Ham, Christmas Morning Surprise

    Makes 6 |  Prep 20 mins |  Cook 20 mins

    Whip the batter up for these make-ahead muffins on Christmas Eve and then place in the fridge in their baking tray until you’re ready to cook them in the oven on Christmas morning. Now that’s a wake and bake!

    They smell amazing as they’re cooking and come out festively green, packing an energy & antioxidant punch from Matcha green tea. You can of course leave the Matcha out if you want to (although it’s undetectable on the palette), and vegetarians can swap the pancetta for wild mushrooms or cherry tomatoes.
    INGREDIENTS.

    6 large organic eggs

    100-150g cubed pancetta

    25g grated parmesan (or cheese of choice)

    1 tsp dried oregano

    1/2 tsp garlic powder (or 1 finely chopped garlic clove)

    1 tsp baking powder

    1 tbsp matcha green tea powder (optional)

    small handful pumpkin seeds

    METHOD.

    • Grease a 6” mould muffin baking tray with butter or oil.
    • Dry fry the pancetta in a pan until golden and crisp (about 5 mins on high). Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen towel, placing another piece of towel on top, pressing down to soak up excess oil.
    • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 6 eggs.
      Sieve in the baking powder and matcha green tea. Add the garlic powder, oregano, and parmesan, continuing to whisk well together for a few minutes.
    • Transfer the egg mix to a jug so you can now easily pour the mixture into the muffin moulds. Distribute the pancetta pieces (reserve some for scattering at the end) between the moulds at this point too. Cover and put in the fridge until morning, or if cooking straight away, continue with below steps…
    • Have your oven heat to 200c / 180c (fan) / Gas Mark 6.
    • Use a teaspoon to give each muffin a little stir and top with a scattering of pumpkin seeds.
      Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they have risen slightly, and are firm to the touch.
    • Remove from the oven and leave to cool in their tin for about 5 minutes before serving, scatter over any reserved pancetta. Epic either hot, warm or cold.

  • Recipe | Butternut Stew, Perfect for A Christmas Eve Get Together

    Butternut Stew | Serves 2 (or 4 with salad / steamed vegetables) |  Prep 15 mins | Cook 45-60 mins

    This is totally comforting and satisfying (not to mention nutritious). Mouthfuls go from moments of mellow tomatoes, squash, leeks and carrot (I like purple carrots in this recipe), to spikes of chilli, smoky chorizo and fresh, green coriander. Non meat eaters feel free to omit the chorizo.

    A one pot winner perfect for Christmas Eve or anytime that you require minimal; effort, expense, and washing up.

    Ingredients:

    1 onion, chopped roughly

    1 leek, chopped roughly

    2 carrots, chopped into 2-3cm chunks

    1 small butternut squash (250g of large chunks)

    4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

    1 large red chilli, deseeded and thinly sliced

    100g cooking chorizo, sliced

    50g pearl barley

    300g jarred herby passata (or use a 400g tin)

    2 bay leaves

    2 sprigs rosemary, finely chopped (or 1 tbsp dried)

    1 tbsp dried marjoram

    1 tsp ground ginger

    400ml hot water, with 2 tsp bouillon (or use a stock cube)

    1 tbsp coconut oil, or other cooking oil

     

    to serve

    handful pumpkin seeds

    fresh coriander

     

    Method

    1) Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick saucepan and over a medium heat begin to fry the chorizo, onions and leeks.

    2) After 5 minutes add the rosemary, chilli, marjoram, ginger and garlic. Stirring around the pan for a few minutes.

    3) Add the passata and bay leaves, and allow to bubble out for a couple of minutes.

    4) Add your pearl barley, butternut squash, and carrots and cover with the stock water.

    5) Once the sauce has reached boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and leave for 25 minutes, shaking the pan every now and then.

    6) Remove the cover from the pan and continue to simmer until your butternut squash and carrots are cooked through. Shake the pan every now and then.

    7) Remove from the heat, season with black pepper and scatter over pumpkin seeds and coriander when serving.
