pork butt, slow-cooked in a crock pot with V8 Juice. Some roasted
potatoes and broccoli. A well balanced yet unexpected tasting meal
for your table.

2
lbs thick sliced pork butt (known in St. Louis as Pork Steaks)
1
46 oz can of V-8 juice (low sodium)
1
yellow onion
1

cloves garlic
2
lbs red potatoes

vegetable

slices in bottom of cooker.
Once
nicely brown, place the meat into the cooker in a single layer, if
possible.
Pour

After

side of the knife, then cut off the ends. The paper-like covering
will slide right off.

Little Black Book of Indiscreet Recipes by Dan White
====================
Peter Tatchell
Peter Tatchell has been campaigning for human rights, democracy, LGBT freedom and global justice since 1967.He was a member of the queer human rights group OutRage!
Through the Peter Tatchell Foundation, he campaigns for human rights in Britain and internationally.
In
1969,
on realizing that he was gay, the struggle for queer freedom became a
focus of his activism.
After moving to London in
1971,
Peter became a leading activist in the Gay Liberation Front (GLF);
organizing sit-ins at pubs that refused to serve “poofs”, and
protests against police harassment and the medical classification of
homosexuality as an illness.He famously disrupted Prof Hans Eysenck’s 1972 lecture which advocated electric shock aversion therapy to “cure” homosexuality.
The following year, in East Berlin, he was arrested and interrogated by the secret police – the Stasi – after staging the first ever gay rights protest in a communist country.
His
ground-breaking book, AIDS:
A guide to survival,
published in 1986,
was the world’s first self-help guide for people with HIV. It
confounded the then consensus that AIDS equals death.
In
early 1987,
Tatchell launched the world’s first organization dedicated to
defending the human rights of people with HIV, the UK
AIDS Vigil Organization,
drafting the world’s first human rights charter for HIV-positive
people.
In
1988, the UKAVO persuaded the World Health Minister’s Summit
on AIDS to issue a declaration opposing government repression and
discrimination against people with HIV.
Most notoriously, in 1994 Peter Tatchell and OutRage! outed 10 Church of England Bishops and called on them to “tell the truth” about their sexuality – accusing them of hypocrisy and homophobia for publicly colluding with anti-gay policies, despite their own homosexuality. This led to him being denounced in parliament and the press as a “homosexual terrorist” and “public enemy number one”.
Also in 1994, Peter authored Safer Sexy, the world’s first comprehensive guide to gay sex safely. This book paved the way for a wider liberalization of sexual imagery law and enforcement.
Two years later, in 1996, together with OutRage!, he suggested that the best way to protect young people is earlier, more frank sex and relationship education, to empower them with the knowledge, skills and confidence to make wise, responsible choices and to report unwanted sexual advances and abusers.
From 1994-2000, Peter helped expose the by then deceased Nazi war criminal, SS Dr Carl Vaernet, who experimented on gay prisoners in Buchenwald concentration camp; revealing how he escaped justice at the end of the Second World War with apparent Allied connivance.
Peter and his OutRage! comrades briefly and peacefully interrupted the Archbishop of Canterbury’s 1998 Easter Sermon in Canterbury Cathedral; condemning Dr Carey’s advocacy of legal discrimination against LGBT people. He was arrested and convicted under the Ecclesiastical Courts Jurisdiction Act 1860 (formerly part of the Brawling Act 1551).
This is Peter’s only conviction in over 50 years of nearly 3,000 direct action and civil disobedience protests.
He
participated in the attempted Moscow Gay Pride marches in 2007,
in solidarity with Russian LGBT campaigners. Together with others, he
was beaten up by neo-Nazis, ultra-nationalists and fundamentalist
Christians; suffering brain and eye damage. The police arrested him,
while his attackers were allowed to go free.
In
2011,
behind-the-scenes, Peter successfully lobbied the Conservative
government to agree the legalization of same-sex marriage.
He is also supporting LGBT activists in many of the more than 70 countries that still totally outlaw lesbian and gay relationships, and which punish same-sexers with maximum penalties including flogging, life imprisonment and execution. This solidarity work has included support for queer activists in South Africa, Nepal, Iraq, Nigeria, Iran, Uganda, Malawi, Russia and Zimbabwe.
More than 40 years after first beginning his human rights campaigns, Peter Tatchell continues to campaign for democracy and human rights in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Burma, Columbia, Somaliland, Pakistan, Zimbabwe and elsewhere.
