Rangers began the 2015/16 season in perfect style with a resounding 6-2 win over rivals Hibernian in the Petrofac Cup at Easter Road.
There were debut goals for James Tavernier, Martyn Waghorn and Andy Halliday as the Glasgow side ran out comfortable winners despite falling behind in the opening half an hour.
Whilst the Petrofac Cup is relatively low down the list of priorities for both clubs this season as they are set to battle it out for the Scottish Championship title and promotion, it was important to set down a marker for the season and gain a potential psychological advantage ahead of the league campaign.
Hibs were a thorn in Rangers side for much of last season, winning the first three league matches with an aggregate scoreline of 9-2, but it was Rangers who won the final league meeting of the season before coming out on...

One of the clichés of gay works of theater is that they often have to be considered “edgy” in order to be significant. Even though we’re at last past the point where gay plays must end tragically, the idea that gay works must still be in some way provocative or boundary-pushing persists. That’s one of the reasons why Nothing But Trash, now playing at Theater for the New City until March 23th, is such a pleasure to behold: it goes in the other direction, and does so exquisitely.
In a move from the Charles Busch playbook, Trash lovingly eviscerates the gee-whiz films of the 1950’s by mimicking the very specific cadence of the dialogue (and musical cues) while casting gay boys and drag queens as its main players. Even the straight boys are pretty much gay.
