Hot Inked Long Beach Thug…
…glares, poses, flips us off two-fisted, grabs his crotch off-frame. Point. And. Shoot! Ah, the perils and pleasures of surveillance. Now, Papi?

Jewish Moscow: Chabad sanctuary, a queer man’s view from the women’s balcony
In Orthodox Judaism, the men are separated from the women during prayer. They sit behind a mechitza (partition) or, in this case, in a balcony…which may actually be the best seat in the house. This custom is, at least in part, because of the idea that the sight of a woman would arouse a man and take his mind away from prayers.
So where does that leave a frum faygeleh (religious gay man)? I’m not quite sure…many possibilities. I snuck up into the balcony during a non-service time, and snapped this shot of what would normally be the women’s view.

Jewish Moscow: staircase at Chabad shul
Staircase, spiraling across the 4-floor complex that serves as a community center for ultra-orthodox Jews in Moscow. Lots of men with great beards here, though it would be rude to snap a picture…

Authentic Caucasian Food
Authentic Caucasian food, served at the Chabad in downtown Moscow by handsome, dark-eyed waiters from the Caucuses.
What do Caucasians eat, exactly? Chopped salads. Spicy chicken. Fresh herbs. Ground lamb. Flaky pastries for dessert.
Tasty.

Report from Jewish Russia
I recently visited Eastern Europe – Warsaw and Poland – to learn more about what Jewish life is like there. I will post photos from my trip here, so stay tuned.
This is the first one: a map from the Jewish Community Center in Moscow. Each light represents a Jewish community somewhere in Russia.

The Wild Cocks of San Juan Bautista
Cockadoodledoo! San Juan Bautista is known for its mission. It is less well known for its feral chicken population. Cocks everywhere. Some hens and chicks, too. They congregate in people’s yards, cross roads in flocks and the roosters of course crow regularly. Local opinions on the feral fowl are mixed. Some celebrate them, others consider them a nuisance. Here’ a splendid specimen of California wild cock.
