paris gay mayor for presidential race

Paris mayor Bertrand Delanoë takes first steps in journey that could lead him to the presidency: "In the introduction to a book of interviews, outlining a market-oriented and even Blairist future for Socialism in France, M. Delanoë hinted strongly that he would run for the leadership of the Parti Socialiste in November and probably seek the party's presidential nomination in four years' time. He was ready, he said, to "invest my convictions and energy in my country" if 'democracy and the Socialist Party call on me... to act'."

Gay Adoption

Florida is the only state in the country that *specifically* bans adoptions based on sexual orientation. At the capitol Wednesday, child welfare advocates were on hand to support a bill to allow gay couples to adopted.

Democratic Senator Nan Rich of Miami says allowing gay couples to adopt would help offer some relieve to the state’s foster care system.

“We have over 3,000 children that are waiting for loving, stable homes. Permanent homes. So this is another pool exactly of parents of people that we believe should have the same rights as anybody else.”

The Florida Office of Analysis and Accountability says children left in foster care grow up more dependent upon public assistance.

California Counties to Offer Same-Sex Marriages June 14

Same-sex couples in some counties will be able to marry as soon as Saturday, June 14, the president of the California's county clerks association said Monday.

Stephen Weir, who heads the California Association of Clerks and Election Officials, said he was told by the Office of Vital Records that clerks would be authorized to hand out marriage licenses as soon as that date — exactly 30 days after the California Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage should be legal.

The court's decisions typically take effect after 30 days, barring further legal action.
"They are shooting for the 14th," said Weir, adding that the state planned to give California's 58 counties advice early this week for implementing the historic change so local officials can start planning.

An effort, however, is under way to stay the Supreme Court's decision until voters can decide the issue with an initiative planned for the November ballot. The measure would overrule the justices' decision and amend the state constitution to ban gay marriage.

Justices have until the ruling's effective date to weigh the request, but could give themselves longer to consider it, attorneys have said. Another complicating factor is that the Supreme Court also directed a midlevel appeals court that upheld the state's one man-one woman marriage laws a year ago to issue a new order legalizing same-sex marriage, and it's not clear when the appeals court would comply.

Suanne Buggy, a spokeswoman for the California Department of Public Health, which oversees the vital records office, would not confirm Monday that state officials have settled the matter of when counties can or must start extending marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
"We will be getting guidance out to the counties soon," Buggy said.

According to Weir, it would be up to each county clerk to decide whether to open their offices to gay and lesbian couples on June 14 or to wait until the following Monday.

Some clerks have said they would aim to accommodate on the earliest possible date, depending on their staffing and anticipated demand, he said. If the court's decision does take effect on June 14, couples could, in theory, plan to obtain their licenses and take their vows at 12:01 a.m. that day, he said.

As it happens, Weir's office in Martinez already holds open hours on the second Saturday of each month, so serving couples who want to get hitched as soon as possible won't be a problem, he said. He and his partner of 18 years hope to be the first ones to tie the knot.

"Just because we have been so close to it, and so far, I would really like to be first," Weir said.

County clerks spoke with state officials last week about how to amend marriage license and related forms to eliminate references to "bride" and "groom," according to Weir. Because each county must use the same forms, the vital records is expected to notify them this week of which gender-neutral wording to use, he said.

Barack Obama Draws Massive Crowd in Portland, Oregon

Two days before tomorrow's Oregon primary, Barack Obama drew 75,000 people to a rally that the New York Daily News called his "wow" moment.

Although Tuesday's primary could give Obama a majority of pledged delegates, the campaign reportedly won't be declaring a victory in the nomination that night.

The Clinton campaign was also in Oregon over the weekend, the NY Times reports: "Bill and Chelsea Clinton also were in Oregon on Sunday, campaigning on behalf of Hillary Rodham Clinton in Salem. 'Don’t you let anyone tell you she can’t win,' Mr. Clinton said. 'You can still make your voices heard.' ... 'In wrapping up the case for his wife, Bill Clinton did not criticize Obama, who is heavily favored to win in Oregon on Tuesday,. writes The Oregonian. 'Instead, he directed his sharpest comments at the news media, citing what he said were recent studies that concluded that the Democratic primary campaign had been the subject of ‘the most biased, one-sided media coverage in the history of American politics.’'"

Gambia gay death threat condemned

President Jammeh last year claimed to have found a cure for Aids
Gay rights activists have condemned Gambian President Yahya Jammeh's threat to behead homosexuals.

Last week he told a political rally that gay people had 24 hours to leave the country.

He promised "stricter laws than Iran" on homosexuality and said he would "cut off the head" of any gay person found in The Gambia.

Carey Johnson of the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Council said the comments were "disgraceful".

"What president Jammeh fails to realise is that there are a significant population of Gambians who are gay, and he has no right to ask them to leave," Mr Johnson said.

The Gambia is a country of believers... sinful and immoral practices [such] as homosexuality will not be tolerated in this country

Yahya Jammeh
President of The Gambia

The speech was "doubly disgraceful" because The Gambia is the host country for the African Commission on Human and People's Rights, he said.

Mr Johnson said the speech, part of President Jammeh's 13-day tour of the country, was an attempt to scapegoat gay people and blame them for the country's ills.

"He's fighting to maintain his control over the country, he finds the weakest group and lays all the problems at their door," Mr Johnson said.

'History of homophobia'

"The Gambia is a country of believers... sinful and immoral practices [such] as homosexuality will not be tolerated in this country," the president told a crowd at a political rally on May 15.

"Jammeh has a long history of homophobia," said British gay rights activist Peter Tatchell.

"If he tries to carry out these threats, international aid donors are likely to withdraw their support, and foreign tourists will stay away in droves, thereby damaging the Gambian economy," he added.

Correspondents say a number of homosexual men have fled to The Gambia from neighbouring Senegal after a crackdown there following arrests at a "gay wedding" in February.

Both countries are predominantly Muslim and President Jammeh cultivates an image of being a devout Muslim.

In February last year, he was condemned by campaigners when he claimed to have cured people of HIV and Aids.

His "cure" was a mixture of herbs that patients ate and spread on their bodies.

Major Monument to Gay Holocaust Victims Unveiled Today in Berlin

A monument remembering gays persecuted by the Nazi regime was unveiled in preparation for a ceremony today in Berlin which was presided over by Germany's federal commissioner for culture, Bernd Neumann, and openly gay Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit.

Below, Neumann and Wowereit peer into the monument.



The monument consists of a 3.6 meter-high, 1.9 meter-wide pillar containing a small window through which can be seen a one and a half minute film loop of two men kissing, directed by the Danish director Thomas Vinterberg. Vinterberg directed the 1998 film The Celebration.

A still from the film loop is below.



And here's another shot of the monument, which sits half a block from the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin's Tiergarten Park, across from the Jewish Holocaust memorial.

According to Deustche Welle, "Originally it was debated whether homosexuals should be included in the larger memorial before the decision was made to give homosexuals their own monument. But the design corresponds to the Holocaust Memorial's field of steles, a series of concrete blocks of varying sizes. While the Nazi persecution of the Jews is well known, for many years there was little public acknowledgement of Nazi atrocities towards homosexuals. Estimates put the number of homosexuals arrested by Nazis at about 54,000 with 7,000 being killed in concentration camps. 'It is not easy for a gay man to live in this country and this society. It's important to remember that this society punished homosexuality for 20 years after National Socialism ended,' said Günter Dworek of the Federation of Gays and Lesbians in Germany (LSVD), a driving force behind the project."

The monument was designed by Berlin-based Norwegian-Danish artist duo Ingar Dragset and Michael Elmgreen (below).

the largest gay pride in the world is in Sao Polo

The São Paulo Gay Parade is, if not the biggest, one of the biggest events of its kind in the world. In 2005, more than 2,000,000 people attended the Parade (read BBC and News24).
It is also one of the major tourist events in São Paulo; the event has official support from the city government of São Paulo. The Parade happens yearly, usually in June; it is the beggining of Brazilian winter, when temperatures are lower, but rains are rare.

For information in Portuguese, visit the site of the official organizer of the event, the Associação do Orgulho GLBT de São Paulo (Association of the Pride of Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and Transgenders of São Paulo).

What is the Parade?




Terra The Parada do Orgulho GLBT de São Paulo (Parade of Pride of Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and Transgenders of São Paulo) has been organized since 1999, with the aims of bringing visibility to social-sexual categories and fomenting the creation of public policies for homossexuals, bissexuals, transvestites and transsexuals.
The main strategy is to occupy public spaces so as to make possible an effective exchange of experiences, elevate the self-esteem of homossexuals and sensibilise the society towards the tolerance with differences.
Year after year, the conscientization and education towards respect to diversity has generated positive results as far as bias eradication is concerned. During the Parade, the homossexuals, united, help construct and guarantee the plenitude of their rights.

15 Simple Ways to Keep Your Partner Happy

So you're in a relationship and your partner starts nagging. He tells you that you just don't understand him, and that he really wishes that you would just do more "little things."
It's not the big things that make him happy; it's paying attention to the little details and showing you care that is really meaningful. He doesn't necessarily need lavish gifts -- He needs to know you're thinking about him.
Here are some ideas to get you started doing these "little things" he really wants:
1. Rub his feet instead of asking him if he wants you to rub his feet. Make it look like you want to do it.
2. Make him dinner one night. Don't ask him if he wants you to make dinner. Make him dinner before he gets home.
3. Light a candle so that he arrives home to a nice environment instead of coming home to the glaring lights of the television and other things.
4. Send him a text in the middle of the day telling her "I miss your smile from this morning" or "Last night was amazing!" or "The conversation we had last night was great."
5. Send an eCard in the middle of the day... something cute to remind him how much you really care about him.
Send an eCard in the middle of the day... something cute to remind him how much you really care about her.
6. If he's going on a business trip, offer to drive him to the airport or pick him up to make his life that much easier.
7. Let him have control of the remote control. Don't monopolize it for a change. Just give it to him and let him actually sit there and enjoying watching one of his shows. Then you can share one of his interests by watching it with him.
8. Offer to iron one of his shirts or take his clothes to the dry cleaner.
9. Clean up the bathroom without being asked. Don't just sit there and ignore the mess around the toilet. If you know it drives him crazy to see water splashed all around the sink, dry that area after you use it.
10. If you work out together, enjoy it with him instead of rushing through your own workout and then not letting his workout at the same time.
11. Take a shower together, then wash his hair, scrub his back, and give him a spa treatment. Do this and enjoy it!
12. The next time he gives you a massage, give him a massage the next day. Offer it! Don't just say you'll give him a massage...do it!
13. Surprise him by making plans. Tell him, "We're going out tonight honey." You can even just go out for a drink or dinner somewhere. It's taking the initiative that's important.
14. Decide on and set aside one night a week as date night. Have a date like when you first started dating.
15. Call him in the middle of the day and just say hello. Don't wait for him to call you.
It can be simple to keep him satisfied. It's not necessarily about what you give him financially or what gifts you give him. That's a cop out. It's the little things. The guy who makes the biggest mistake is the one who ignores their significant other then all of a sudden give them an expensive gift to make up for it. That doesn't make up for it at all.

a flight for nudists

A German travel company said it has decided to cancel a special nude charter flight that had been scheduled for this summer to a popular Baltic Sea destination despite being fully booked.

The July 5 flight to the popular Baltic Sea resort of Usedom was due to be the first of many and was aimed at East Germans nostalgic for the naturism that was authorised and extremely popular under communist rule.

But OssiUrlaub.de, the firm organising the service to a picturesque Baltic Sea island, said it has had second thoughts after "moral objections" in the media and from visitors to its Internet portal, a spokesman said.

The 50 people with tickets would have boarded the flight in the eastern city of Erfurt fully clothed, but once on the plane would have been free to undress and enjoy the rest of the journey without a stitch on.

They will now receive a full refund as well as a voucher for other products offered by the company, whose core business caters to holidaymakers who keep their clothes on, it stressed.

The travel agency created a stir in the media earlier this year with its plans for the first nudist charter flight to the Baltic Sea.

"In the former East Germany, naturist holidays were a much-loved way of spending the best weeks of the year," the founder of OssiUrlaub.de, Enrico Hess said at the time. "We want to make that freedom possible above the clouds, too."

Did drugs kill the slowdance?

At dinner the other night for a friend’s birthday, a girl asked the question “What happened to the slowdance?” Remember when you were at the school dance at the end of the night there was always a slow dance and everyone would be pashing (snogging) their boyfriends/girlfriends and dancing that awkward teenage side shuffle with their arms around each other. Even in movies from the 80’s they would show slow dances at the end of the night in nightclubs.

Where did the slow dance go? Did drugs kill the slow dance because no one can actually slow down? Are gay men capable of the slow dance? My theory is that yes, drugs mean people can’t physically stop themselves dancing, or there’s no room for two in a K hole. The other theory is that if gay men slowed down on a dance floor and stopped waving their hands in the air like they just don’t care, then the groping would start and the slow dance would end up quite horizontal with 100 participants.

The lawyers don’t like my butt!

A while back I posted about appearing in a music video for Seany B. Basically the video was pretty raunchy with two couples engaging in a bisexual food fight orgy. It appears Sony’s lawyers have decided that it’s a bit too provocative to be released. We are hoping that they might allow it on youtube or something, just not on the commercial TV stations.

I still haven’t seen it, but the guy that directed and filmed it says it looks fantastic. I’m hoping to see it in the next few days, but I won’t be able to post it until all the legal stuff is sorted, if ever.

Portland Elects Openly Gay Mayor Sam Adams

Sam Adams, an openly gay man whose family lived on "food stamps and public housing" as he grew up, has been elected Portland, Oregon's mayor. As such, he'll be the first openly gay mayor of a top-40 U.S. city.

The Oregonian reports: " The city commissioner soundly defeated 12 other candidates Tuesday to assume the top office in the city and one of the tallest bully pulpits in the Pacific Northwest. He captured 58 percent of the vote to avoid a November runoff against travel agency owner Sho Dozono. Adams, 44, won by stressing specifics: He promised to work with school leaders to cut the dropout rate, make Portland a leader in environmentally friendly businesses and use the Portland Streetcar and better planning to spur urban renewal."

You may recall I posted about Adams last September as he was being targeted by Bob Ball, a gay Portland real estate developer who also had an interest in the mayor's office, in an ugly, unsubstantiated smear campaign involving an underage intern. Adams, obviously, survived that attack.

Adams takes over for outgoing mayor Tom Potter in seven months.

Barack Obama talked to Advocate gay magazine

In an exclusive Chicago sit-down with The Advocate's Kerry Eleveld, Democratic front-runner Barack Obama discusses "don't ask, don't tell," Rev. Wright, and what he would do for LGBT Americans if he becomes president. On the fact that he doesn't support Gay Marriage, Obama explains:"I strongly respect the right of same-sex couples to insist that even if we got complete equality in benefits, it still wouldn’t be equal because there’s a stigma associated with not having the same word, marriage, assigned to it. I understand that, but my perspective is also shaped by the broader political and historical context in which I’m operating. And I’ve said this before -- I’m the product of a mixed marriage that would have been illegal in 12 states when I was born. That doesn’t mean that had I been an adviser to Dr. King back then, I would have told him to lead with repealing an antimiscegenation law, because it just might not have been the best strategy in terms of moving broader equality forward. That’s a decision that the LGBT community has to make. That’s not a decision for me to make." Read full interview here...

pop ashamed by sex abuse from priests

Pope Benedict XVI, who turned 81 yesterday, was greeted at Andrews Air Force Base on Tuesday by President Bush, his wife Laura and his daughter Jenna. The pope began his first visit to the United States by addressing an issue that has wounded the Catholic Church in the US, telling reporters on his aircraft that the sexual abuse of children has caused great suffering ”for the church and him "personally.” The scandal has produced thousands of sexual abuse victims and about 5,000 accused priests since it erupted in 2002 and has cost the church more than $2 billion in settlements. “I would not speak at this moment about homosexuality, but pedophilia, which is another thing. And we would absolutely exclude pedophiles from the sacred ministry,” said the pope. Benedict XVI is not new to issues involving abusive priests. As Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, he headed the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and was responsible for deciding whether to discipline priests accused of sexual abuse.

Australia moves toward Equality for Gays

Changes to Australian federal laws which discriminate against same-sex couples are long overdue, Attorney-General Robert McLelland says. McClelland formally announced on wednesday that amendments to about 100 laws, identified as discriminatory in an audit, would be introduced during the winter session of parliament. "The changes will provide for equality of treatment in wide range of area including superannuation, taxation, social security, workers compensation, pharmaceutical benefits... These will make a practical difference to the lives of a group of fellow Australians who, far too long, have suffered discrimination at a commonwealth level" Mr McClelland told reporters in Canberra. "Discrimination on the basis of sexuality has long been removed from state and territory laws and this will compete the picture by introducing long-overdue reforms to remove discrimination from commonwealth laws." He added the legislative changes would not allow for gay marriage. "These reforms won't change the Marriage Act... We made it clear before the election that the government regards marriage as being between a man and a woman and we don't support any measures that seek to mimic that process."

High school Students outed by Principal

ABC News reports that Memphis Hollis F. Price Middle College High School principal, Daphne Beasley (picture), fed up with public displays of affection in the hallways, allegedly displayed a list of couples — including some who are gay — in the school, publicly outing the boys and violating their privacy, according to one of the students involved. "I really feel that my personal privacy was invaded," said Nicholas, one of the young men who claims his sexuality was exposed without his approval by his principal, "I mean, Principal Beasley called my mother and outted me to my mother!" "It was actually frightening," Nicholas said of the incident, which occurred in Fall 2007, "to see a list with my name on it where not just other teachers could see but students as well."
The American Civil Liberties Union has threatened legal action against the school. "I really couldn't believe that a principal would have done something like this," said Christine Sun, the American Civil Liberties Union attorney handling the case after it was brought to her attention by Nicholas' mother.

Cayman Islands: a gay tourist questioned by police for having embraced his friend in public

A toursite gay American was arrested by police after the Cayman Islands have embraced his companion in public at the nightclub of the hotel where the couple resided.
Aaron Chandler, an American 23 years, vacationing with his partner has been warned by police as a first step following a complaint from customers attending the hotel complex where he lived. In case a kiss - chaste - exchanged by the two men in the hotel. Local police Respondent then ordered the man not to publicly embrace his friend.

Considering that his behavior was no different from other hotel guests, the couple has not complied. "Our attitude was little that can be described as obscene; holding hands or exchange a furtive kiss," explain the two men.
In the night following the warning, while a new kiss is exchanged in the disco of the hotel, qu'Aaron Chandler is arrested and taken to protesting the local police under the gaze dismay of many residents. He was released later without charge against him.

The situation seems all the more curious that homosexuality between consenting adults is legal in the Cayman Islands since December 2000. These islands are an overseas territory of the United Kingdom located in the Caribbean Sea. The Gay questioned nevertheless seen indicate that he could behave as he wished in his room, but it was unacceptable that two men kissing in public.

Aaron Chandler, who is a leading member of an organization of gay rights in the USA, sent a letter of protest to the tourist office on the island to protest against the way he was treated.

"I thought that the remark made to me was ridiculous and I did not take seriously that I risquais to be arrested for this," he wrote. "I do not see myself being me hide simply because some people are more homophobic than others," he concludes his letter.

Iraq: Saddam Hussein was afraid of contracting AIDS in prison

Saddam Hussein, the deposed Iraqi president hanged in 2006 for crimes against humanity, was afraid of contracting sexual diseases during his detention by U.S. forces, according to excerpts of writings from prison published Tuesday by an Arabic newspaper.
Saddam Hussein wrote that he had asked his prison guards not to spread their towels near hers, for fear of contracting "disease of young," said the daily Al-Hayat, quoting his diary.
"My main concern was to avoid contracting a sexual disease in a place like this, and AIDS," he wrote. "What can make Americans and other invaders (...) in a country (invading) a share of dangerous diseases?", He added.

Rome mayor said Gay Pride Parade is a sexual exhibition

Rome's newly elected right-wing mayor, former neo-fascist Gianni Alemanno, dismissed the Gay Pride event as a "sexual exhibition" and said the city would make sure the event did not offend anybody, Italian media reported Wednesday. "I respect homosexual people, I know a few and I am not saying this out of discrimination," said Alemanno. "But I fear that Gay Pride is something else, an act of sexual exhibition, and I am opposed to all form of exhibition, homosexual or heterosexual." Last year's Gay Parade in June drew tens of thousands of people and was organised by 50 or so associations and left-wing political parties. Now, as new mayor elected April 28, Alemanno announced Gay Pride would be up for debate at the municipal council so as to "find a formula that doesn't offend anyone." "We knew the Italian right, the worst in Europe, didn't like this demonstration," said left-wing former deputy Franco Grillini. He added: "For the right, a good homosexual is one who hides and does not defend his rights."

abercrombie catalogue will not be sold to guys under 18

Here it comes again, another dumbly predictable, panicky little outcry from terrified parents' groups and petrified dads all aflutter over the recent sexed-up, "racy" Abercrombie & Fitch catalog, just in time to stuff your proverbial stocking.

You know the one, that new A&F Christmas catalog that dared to go so far as to show actual young half-naked models laying around in half-naked splendor doing half-naked nothing much. Same as it ever was.

But wait -- nudity? Group sex? Orgies? Specific directions for gang masturbation techniques, all appearing in a mediocre clothing catalog aimed squarely at ineptly dressed Stanford undergrads who have free access to Dad's Visa? Whatever is the world coming to? And who, pray who, will save the children?

I mean, whatever happened to the innocent and tantalizing catalogs of yore, like the 4-inch-thick Sears tome with its countless pages of busty bra models who looked like your best friend's mom?

Whatever happened to fantasizing all the way through the panty selection in the JCPenney catalog? What happened to innocence and virtue in mail-order advertising?

Yeah, right. Softcore is, of course, where you find it. And one person's "offensive" is another's "barely naughty enough to arouse a Catholic priest." The hypocrisy of these parents is palpable. Bring me lots of photos of frumpy baby boomers happily munching $20 Harry & David pears so that I may rinse my poor singed eyeballs!

Meanwhile, Abercrombie is thrilled. The latest round of reactionary screeching is exactly the outcry they were counting on, as they yank the sexy catalog from the shelves just as the news of its raciness hits the media, thus resulting in an instant wave of interest among their target market: a.k.a., those youths who simply love it when parents get all pissy and fumy about interesting types of sex they no longer have.

Is Ambercrombie softcore porn? Is it really? Is it really all that much more dangerous or damaging to nubile young minds than, say, Pottery Barn Kids? Let us ponder. Let us compare.

Let us now gander at, say, the latest Williams-Sonoma catalog. Here is, quite simply, 160 pages of pure kitchen-fetish smut, raw and glossy and openly explicit, all gleaming $400 KitchenAid blenders and wickedly overpriced stainless steel All-Clad cookware and gorgeously photographed slabs of steaming gourmet meats being perfectly sliced with spotless $200 Wusthof knives. Mmm yeah, baby. Do it to me just like that.

And over here, it's the latest mail-order offering from Pottery Barn. Oh my yes. Page after page of softcore earth-toned lifestyle porn for those who can't afford actual designer furniture but who seem to have an undying fetish for picture frames and votive candles and faux-antique mass-produced hardwood rollaway desks.

And all that's missing from these shots is the girl in the Garnet Hill catalog sweater who will refuse to have sex with you on the Pottery Barn slipcovered sofa lest she wrinkle her J. Jill catalog skirt and knock the Crate & Barrel vanilla pillar candle over.

The Abercrombie catalog is, by the way, not sold to anyone under 18. It has a cover warning of "Mature content." No actual terrified oversheltered children were in any way harmed or exposed or even lightly tickled in the photographing or marketing of its pages.

No matter. Still, Michael Kieschnick, president of Working Assets and chairman of some scary-sounding overbearing thing called Dads and Daughters, thinks Abercrombie is trying to openly molest his young girl, who has, presumably, never even seen the catalog and is probably too young to buy it and if she is, in fact, over 18 and she's into happy yuppie group masturbation, well, it's really none of his damn business. Just a thought.

Still, Maryam Kubasek of the National Coalition for the Protection of Children and Families (hello, red flag of rigid sanctimony) apparently thinks the catalog is literally capable of stripping her young son naked and plying him with massage oil and anal beads and a nice Burntbridge Pond Striped Polo shirt with moose embroidery for $39.99. Oh the horror.

Oh hell, let's just spell it out: All major catalogs are softcore porn. Just because they lack nude postcoital models does not make them any less explicit or depraved.

All are unabashed fetishy lifestyle whores and all attempt to showcase their wares in impossibly perfect situations for impossibly perfect people with impossibly perfect teeth.

Of course sex and orgies and masturbation have nothing to do with selling yuppie clothes. This is what the parents groups pule.

Then again, this is complete B.S. -- sex has absolutely everything to do with selling clothes, because just under the surface of it all, clothes are only silly shallow vanity-based things we adorn ourselves with for no other reason than to appear attractive and interesting to the world and to our lovers and families and friends and really hot waitresses. We want to look cute. And sexy. Or at least presentable. Because we want to get laid.

And if you say this is not the reason you buy clothes, you are either lying your ass off or you are sadly disinterested in physical appearances, or you are past the age or the marriage status where you care about sex or fashion or how those jeans make your ass look, and therefore you are not even on Abercrombie's radar.

Should we now talk of the upscale decorator porn of the Gump's catalog? What about the weird overpriced parenting porn of Hanna Anderssen? The uber-cheesy gay Eurostud porn of International Male?

Or what of the super-rich diamond-encrusted ultra-slick porn of the Neiman Marcus catalog, packed with all those untouchable preening fur-clad mistresses descending the steps of your new Lear jet? Why are uptight parents' groups not horrified at this raunchy display?

It's all the same. It's all manufactured desire and imitation lust and a boatload of tasty crap you don't really need but they make you crave madly, the way a 14-year-old schoolgirl pines for Orlando Bloom in a blond wig.

Note to scrunchy parents: I'd be far, far more worried about what, say, Kraft is selling to your kids in all those millions of boxes of toxic and openly poisonous Kraft Lunchables than about some quasi-sexy yuppie-fashion catalog they never even see. But that's just me.

Oh, but here. Here is the safe, saccharine J. Crew catalog, all bland white former sorority girls and carefully emasculated boys and a smattering of safe black persons, all with incredibly clean teeth and nifty haircuts and big happy smiles playfully tossing snowballs at each other in their new J. Crew scarves, only $29.99. Oh yes, that's much better.

And here we have the L.L. Bean catalog, featuring those exact same J. Crew models about 10 years later, doing the exact same smiley snowbound activities, only with more gray hair and a higher credit limit and less sexual activity and lots more monogrammed luggage. How disturbing. I feel sort of violated just looking at it.

Interracial Gay Kiss on TV

Spring means romance, also for gay characters on TV; First Luke kissed Noah on As The World Turns, then two gay soldiers lip locked on Grey's Anatomy, and soon there will be an interracial gay kiss on ABC Family's college drama Greek.

One of the central cast members Calvin (Paul James) and his new love interest, Michael (Max Greenfield) - who is introduced this coming Monday - will share an on-screen kiss in the May 26th episode, "A Tale of Two Parties"

Here's the episode description, and below, a picture from the episode:

With all of the party restrictions lifted, Kappa Tau and Omega Chi throw competing parties to celebrate. Calvin (Paul James) is nervous about inviting Michael (Max Greenfield) to the party with all of his fraternity brothers around, while Michael feels uncomfortable partying with the students he is the TA at school for. Both are feeling a bit uneasy and a conversation between the two leads to a first kiss.

Gay rights group to train activists in Lauderdale

The Human Rights Campaign gay rights group plans to hold a "Camp Equality" boot camp today and Sunday.

The idea, the organization said, is to train people to work on political campaigns and defeat ballot measures such as the proposed constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage.

The organization, which worked in 2006 to help Ron Klein defeat then-U.S. Rep. Clay Shaw, R-Fort Lauderdale, said it again would target key races.

The camp will end by 3 p.m. Sunday, according to the Web site of the Human Rights Campaign.

Ferrari F149


Meet Ferrari's new baby! But don't call Maranello's latest an "entry-level" Ferrari. Actually, this front-engine rear-drive 2-seater is the Italian automaker's response to increasing concerns about the automobile's impact on the environment. Instead of pursuing more displacement and maximum power, the new philosophy concentrates on delivering a high power-to-weight ratio. As a result, this first front-engine V-8 road car in the company's history will take its place alongside the F430 in the lineup, perhaps priced marginally less.

While it shares some similarities with the larger V-12-powered 612 Scaglietti and 599 GTB, the shorter wheelbase and lighter weight of the car promise outstanding performance. Codenamed F149, the car also boasts a retractable hardtop. Contrary to speculation that the car would be marketed as a Dino, a Ferrari spokesman insists that this new model is a full-fledged member of the company's lineup. "It is a true Ferrari and will perform like one," the executive stressed. Expect the engine to displace 4.3 liters and produce something on the order of 450 bhp.

2012 Maserati Sports Car


It's a clear hint of a more dynamic Maser, competing not only with Aston's V8 Vantage, but also with Porsche's 911.

Maserati has been through some tough times. But after years of loss, the Italian sports-car maker finally returned to profit in 2007. The comeback was possible because of new models like the Quattroporte Automatic and the brand-new GranTurismo luxury coupe. Demand for Maseratis has been growing, pushing production to an all-time high of about 9000 cars. Maserati CEO Roberto Ronchi talks of increasing output "to 20,000 cars after 2012."

Clearly a third model line is essential for this ambitious plan, and a sporty coupe (or spyder) for younger customers looks to be the likely choice. A Geneva study by IED (Istituto Europeo di Design) has been a good test of the public's reaction. Ronchi says the show car "has the right proportions, but still needs some detail work." It's a clear hint of a more dynamic Maser, competing not only with Aston's V8 Vantage, but also with Porsche's 911. The car should be on the road by 2011 or 2012.

Tech-wise, Maserati will benefit from R&D at Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and Fiat. Additionally, there is still the Sigma platform developed in cooperation with GM. Denied in the past, it could still be used in the next Alfa Romeo 169 in 2009 (offering both rear- and all-wheel drive).

2012 Jaguar F-Type


Jaguar could very easily end up with the coolest sports car of the 21st century.

Ratan Tata, the soft-spoken urbane boss of the Indian giant conglomerate that has acquired Jaguar and Land Rover for $2.3 billion, was understandably very coy about his plans for the two iconic British brands at the Geneva show, as the deal still had to be confirmed.

That was finally done in late March — so what does the future hold for one of Britain's premier marques? One new car that seems a betting certainty is a successor to the fabled E-Type, to be dubbed the F-Type.

In 2000 Jaguar unveiled an F-Type concept at that year's Detroit show to much acclaim. Its swoopy curves and retro machine-turned fascia drew a lot of admiration, but it was ditched in favor of more mainstream products.


2011 Mazda RX-7


Mazda's aim is to bring it in under $30,000.

An anonymous source at Mazda revealed to one of our spies in Japan that there will be another rotary-engine car coming from the Hiroshima-based company. It's still early, but a team is being assembled to produce such a car. The basis for the future car — we have yet to confirm if it will be called the RX-7 — is the 16X rotary engine, unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show last year. The 16X is an all-new Wankel — an evolution of the Renesis 13B powerplant in the RX-8 — with a revised eccentric shaft designed to produce more low -end torque. While Mazda hasn't published horsepower figures yet, we hear it's in the neighborhood of 200–250 bhp.

2010 Suzuki Concept Kizashi 3


An accessible alternative to the near-luxury segment.

The Concept Kizashi 3 is the third and last of the Kizashi concepts, the previous two seen at the 2007 Frankfurt and Tokyo shows. Besides the fact that the Concept Kizashi 3 is the best-looking of the trio, it's also the most important because Suzuki says it will produce a sports sedan based on this design to go on sale in North America by 2010. Kizashi, by the way, is Japanese for "preview."

The Concept Kizashi 3's power comes from a 3.6-liter dohc V-6 with 300 bhp. The engine is mated to a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters and the car rides on 21-in. wheels. Its overall length of 183.0 in. means it is just a bit larger than a BMW 3 Series. Suzuki says the goal for the new car will be to "provide an accessible alternative to the near- luxury segment."

2010 Lotus Eagle


Codenamed "Eagle," Lotus' new sports car will be unveiled at the London Motor Show.

Lotus is gearing up for its most important product launch since the Elise bowed 13 years ago at the 1995 Frankfurt show. Codenamed "Eagle," Lotus' new sports car will be unveiled at the London Motor Show in late July. It will feature a unique aluminum chassis with a bonded one-piece carbon-fiber roof — including the "A" posts and cantrails — that has a torsional rigidity of 26,000 Nm per degree. "That's slightly more than a Lamborghini Gallardo," said a Lotus insider.

separate bathrooms for gay students at school?

TREASURE VALLEY — Homosexual and heterosexual students should have separate bathrooms and showers in Idaho schools, a Wilder Republican running for the Idaho House said Friday.

Walt Bayes, who gained notoriety two years ago by going on an anti-abortion hunger strike that lasted 59 days, said he wasn’t sure how the issue could be handled other than providing different facilities for gay and straight students in schools.
Also on agenda

Some of Walt Bayes’ other platforms:

• Make the supplying of pornography to juveniles by any person, official, librarian or institution a criminal offense.

• Require written permission from parents or guardian before supplying any sex education, contraceptive or abortion.

• The state shall pay equal money for equal education to all schools: public, private or home. “Give home and private schools money and they will run the unions out of town,” Bayes said.

• Wolves should be killed wherever they endanger livestock, game, pets or people. Bayes said he shot a wolf that was chasing his deer. “To me it was legal because the (Idaho) Constitutional says I have a right to protect my property,” Bayes said. He said officials decided not to prosecute him.


The topic came up after Bayes mentioned it in his campaign literature, where he wrote, “It is absolutely wrong to force any student to share the same bathrooms and showers with homosexual teachers or students.”

Bayes is a 70-year-old retired blue-collar worker and farmer. None of the three Republicans running in the Tuesday, May 27 primary against him agrees with his position.

“I don’t think it’s worth commenting on,” District 11 House Seat B incumbent Rep. Carlos Bilbao of Emmett said. “I don’t know where he’s coming off on all this.”

Bayes said that when he was 18 it would have been “an absolute catastrophe” for him to have showered with girls. But he said he wasn’t completely sure how the issue of homosexuals and heterosexuals using the same facilities in schools should be addressed.

“I don’t really have an answer for it, but we’re going to have to do something if there’s going to be a considerable number of our people who are going to go that way (homosexual),” Bayes said. “We’re going to (need) some kind of separation.”

Bayes said his main goal as a candidate is to stop abortion by having the fetus defined as a person from the moment of conception.

One of Bayes’ opponents, Steve Coyle of Star, said he did not see the need for separate facilities for gays and straights in schools. Another candidate in the race, Jeff Justus of Meridian, said the proposal was not needed.

“We have a lot more important issues than that,” Justus said.

Paula Fought For Gay Idols Danny and David

In a new interview, Paula Abdul talks about her gay best friends and how she fought for gay American Idol contestants Danny Noriega and David Hernandez.

Abdul tells NewNowNext about Danny Noriega and David Hernandez:

I pushed for them and fought... There's a reason why there was never, ever a debate or argument during the Green Mile show. We were still debating, and I was being yelled at - we were going overtime - because I fought so hard for Danny and David. And I stood my ground. I said, This kid is needed – especially Danny- because he is very open about being gay. He tried out the year before, and I fought...

Because for a lot of people, the two most vulnerable places to be are in front of a mirror or behind a microphone – and both are areas of my life I've had great success. So I've watched people who are afraid of being who they are. Like with Danny Noriega, it was so important for television, for young kids to see: Here's a young guy, who's very smart, very witty and beyond talented, and I wanted so bad for him to go far in this competition. I needed him, I wanted him so bad to make the top 12. It would have changed even more so...

She also says she helped George Michael during his pre-out days:

Do you know how many people I've embraced and fought for them being at peace with themselves? I mean, I worked with George Michael on the most coveted Faith tour. You can't get bigger than that. And I was so understanding and so supportive of the fact that it's really difficult living a ... not living your life truthfully, for fear that people won't accept you.

And it wasn't until years afterwards that he came out - and he had the courage to walk up to me when I was eating dinner with Mike Ovitz at the Ivy - and he came up to me and said, I want to apologize; you're one of the most talented people, and I treated you not so great. And that's because ... I was living a lie of who I was.

And he gave me the biggest hug. And I said, For that my dear, I love you more than ever.

Abdul says her four closest friends are all gay:

My whole life ... [she starts to cry again.] has been surrounded by marvelous, wonderful gay people. My best friend Jimmy right now is living with me, and he's one of the most magnificent singers in the world. I don't think anyone sings better than him.

Let's see, my four closest friends - they're my best friends - are three gay guys and one gay woman ... my whole life, my extended family has been a family of wonderful gay people.

I've grown up in the business, behind-the-scenes, as a dancer choreographer - not so much as a dancer, but as a choreographer. And I've lost so many wonderful, dear, dear people that I trained and that toured with me. It's been a world that I feel very, very close to. I feel that, in many ways, I'm more understood by the gay community than I am anywhere else.

Bears like it so why not humans? This bamboo inspired stereo looks good (ignore the pink) and thru the natural acoustics of cylindrical objects, sounds good too. But it’s not just nature-ry, it also has every accoutrement a technophile would want. Think wifi enabled, wireless speakers, integrated LED screen, MP3 line in, remote desktop syncing, radio, and yes - cd player.



There are 3 parts to the whole system. You have you right/left channel wireless speakers, a base station that houses the subwoofer, and a control ring. Now you could attach everything and use it as a standalone stereo or connect the speakers together with the control ring. A single charge should give you 12 hours. The control ring between them contains the basic music controls. The base station can also wirelessly sync music with your computer, should you be the anti-cd type.

Should Indian actors play gay roles?

The refusal of some of the top actors to play a gay character in Madhur Bhandarkar's forthcoming Fashion raises a strong question - Are our actors too careful about their 'safe' image to take up challenging roles such as these? Is it high time they moved out from their formulaic cocoon to address larger social issues through their art?

Or, are they justified in shying away from setting examples that make a point, because in the end, every artist has a right to 'protect' himself from controversy? But when these very stars are ready to face tough criticism of their performances head on, why is it that choosing an untrodden path as far as roles are concerned scares them?

"What are they scared of? Even Hollywood actors like Richard Gere have played sensitive gay roles. I would tell them to come ahead and take up the challenge to set an example", urges Anjali Gopalan, founder and Executive Director of Naz foundation, an NGO involved in GLBT awareness and rights. "It's stupid to have this kind of a discriminating outlook while deciding what role to play", agrees sociologist Dr Urmi Mala Sarkar.

If Shahrukh can crack a light-hearted joke on a television show when being asked what he would do if he discovered he woke up in the morning to find a certain male director sleeping next to him, why can't he approach the deeper subject in his films with greater seriousness?

Barack Obama: where he is now

Barack Obama is now just 169 delegates away from winning the Democratic nomination. It's within sight.

This is a decisive moment in this race.

Barack has already won more votes, more delegates, and more than twice as many states as Senator Clinton, whose path to the nomination has grown extremely narrow. But these loans show that her campaign will continue to contest the remaining primaries vigorously.

We need to show that the voices of more than 1.5 million ordinary people donating whatever they can afford are more powerful than one person giving more than $11 million to their own campaign.

Thom Browne

Thom Browne loves the old red, white, and blue… in his own deeply twisted way. The designer closed his show with 'The Star-Spangled Banner', but it was Jimi Hendrix's cliché-bombing live version that he opted for. That seemed only appropriate, after a presentation that exploded the masculine certitudes of patrician Americana. Browne's shows have transcended mere menswear manifesto to become pieces of surreal performance art -at least, that's one way to interpret a finale composed of a "bride" demurely toting his train of tricolored rosettes down the catwalk with a retinue of lifeguard "bridesmaids" in attendance. Such flourishes -there was also a 60s surfer-dude thing going on, though more as styling cue than thematic undercurrent- ensured the presentation was reminiscent of some of Rei Kawakubo's more provocative propositions in the past. Just like Kawakubo, Browne has yet to encounter a rule he didn't fancy breaking. Hence, proportions so skewed they were positively bizarre. The key word was "short". Very. Suit jackets had sleeves that ended mid-bicep, and shorts were essentially hot pants (hmm, looks oh-so sexy !).
It's Browne's peculiar achievement that such indulgences don't compromise the "maleness" of his men. Even when they were wrapped Lana Tuner–like in big fluffy towels, they were still butch—weird, but butch. That's why his sensibility has infiltrated the menswear mainstream. As far as Trojan horses go, it was easy to imagine this collection's overload on plaid tickling a few fancies. Like a plaid suit covered by a coat in a lacquered version of the same pattern, or a suit, shirt, and tie all matching. Men who have adjusted to the Browne crop will find it in a more generous, fuller-legged, wider-cuffed version for spring.
But that's commerce. It's inevitably more intriguing to speculate on the implications of shirtsleeves extended and knotted straitjacket-style at the back, or suits bulked up to Sasquatch proportions with rosettes. Browne's men are undoubtedly men, but they're not moving as easily in the modern world.

A message from Barack Obama after winning yesterday

Friend --

We just won a decisive victory in North Carolina thanks to people like you.

Indiana remains too close to call. But what is clear is that we did much better than all the pundits predicted, despite Republicans changing parties to support Senator Clinton, believing she would be easier for Senator McCain to defeat.

Here's where we stand.

As of Tuesday morning, we needed just 273 delegates to clinch the nomination. When the votes are fully counted Wednesday morning, we will have gained more than a third of them in a single day.

We have a clear path to victory. But now is the time for each one of us to step up and do what we can to close out this primary.

The "Met" celebrates the influence of "superhero" comic about fashion

NEW YORK, May 6, 2008 (AFP) - The metamorphosis of the body by the clothing is a constant ambition creators, and an exhibition retraces from Wednesday, May 7 at the Metropolitan Museum in New York the influence of "super-hero" comic books and movies on contemporary fashion.

The 20th century saw the emergence of generations of designers who, to varying degrees, have been inspired by Superman, Spiderman and Captain America, the ideal of justice to the body and eternal youth, who perform feats when they leave their identities are banal and costumes that make them fly, spin, dive and conquer the enemy.

In the lobby of the museum on 5th Avenue, visitors are greeted by Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, three sculptures unpainted stucco, a wink to the "real" marble statues qu'abrîte the establishment .

The showroom, surprising for architecture very austere "Met" is made up of corridors lined with mirrors, a realization of Nathan Crowley, designer of Hollywood who is the particular design of "Batman begins" and "The Dark Knight" which leaves next summer.

On wax mannequins, some sixty models created by the fashion stars like Thierry Mugler and Pierre Cardin in 80 years, John Galliano, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Hussein Chalayan and Alexander McQueen later, show how the Inspiration has come often urban American hero.

Some clothes are well-known as corset-moto by Thierry Mugler for its collection spring-summer 1992, equipped with mirrors and handlebar, or combinations sports hood of Jean-Paul Gaultier's collection for autumn-winter 1995-1996. Others were seen in movies like Superman costume worn by Christopher Reeve in 1978.

"It was much harder to find in my collections of models to explain," exclaimed the Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani, sponsor of the exhibition which will last until 1 September.

Famous for its tailors trousers businesswoman, its fluid forms and shades of beige or gray, the Italian still has two dresses the "Met", a very broad shoulders but who respects the creator's passion for grey silk, and an evening gown in black muslin surpiquée a spider web.

"They had the courage, Gaultier, Mugler, Galliano (John Galliano, designer at Dior)", said Giorgio Armani, at a press conference with the outgoing director of the Metropolitan, Philippe de Montebello. "But that courage is necessary to the culture of fashion, these innovative feed inspiration," he added, paying tribute "to the designers of cartoons of 30 and 40 years."

"Flash Gordon lived in the same homes that are now built in Shanghai in the Bund area, contemporary Japanese cars came out of these comics," he noted.

The exhibition was organized by Andrew Bolton, curator of the Costume Institute, which is a department of the Museum established in 1946 and has mounted in recent years retrospectives Poiret (2007), Chanel (2005) or "AngloMania: tradition and transgression in British fashion "(2006).

"This exhibition is a tribute to the triumph of fantasy over reality, the transformation of the body, the duality," he explained before paying tribute to "DC Comics and Marvel", the two major new - York publishing comics.

Obama wins N.C. primary

INDIANAPOLIS - Barack Obama swept to victory in the North Carolina primary Tuesday night and declared he was closing in on the Democratic presidential nomination. Hillary Rodham Clinton clung to a narrow Indiana lead, struggling to halt her rival's march into history.

"Tonight we stand less than 200 delegates away from securing the Democratic nomination for president of the United States," Obama told a raucous rally in Raleigh, N.C. — and left no doubt he intended to claim the prize.

Clinton and Obama both said the former first lady would win Indiana. Yet thousands of votes were yet to be counted, principally in Lake County, not far from Obama's home city of Chicago.

She told cheering supporters in Indianapolis, "Thanks to you, it's full speed on to the White House," signaling her determination to fight on in a campaign already waged across more than 15 months and nearly all 50 states.

Returns from 99 percent of North Carolina precincts showed Obama winning 56 percent of the vote to 42 percent for Clinton, a triumph that mirrored his earlier wins in Southern states with large black populations.

That made Indiana a virtual must-win Midwestern contest for the former first lady, who was hoping to counter Obama's persistent delegate advantage with a strong run through the late primaries. Returns from 92 percent of the state's precincts showed Clinton with 51 percent of the vote to 49 percent for Obama.

Obama won at least 69 delegates and Clinton at least 63 in the two states combined, with 55 still to be awarded.

Voters in both states fell along racial lines long since established in a marathon race between the nation's strongest-ever black presidential candidate and its most formidable female challenger for the White House.

The economy was the top issue by far in both states, according to interviews with voters as they left their polling places.

Two weeks after a decisive defeat in Pennsylvania, Obama sounded increasingly like he was looking forward to the fall campaign.

"This primary season may not be over, but when it is, we will have to remember who we are as Democrats ... because we all agree that at this defining moment in history — a moment when we're facing two wars, an economy in turmoil, a planet in peril — we can't afford to give John McCain the chance to serve out George Bush's third term."

Clinton was joined at her rally by her husband Bill, his face sunburned after hours spent campaigning in small-town North Carolina, and their daughter, Chelsea.

She stressed the issue that came to dominate the final days of the primaries in both states, her call for a summertime suspension of the federal gasoline tax. "I think it's time to give Americans a break this summer," she said.

She added that no matter who wins the epic race for the nomination, "I will work for the nominee of this party" in the fall campaign against the Republicans. To emphasize her determination, Clinton announced plans to campaign Thursday in West Virginia, South Dakota and Oregon, three of the remaining primary states.

Obama was gaining more than 90 percent of the black vote in Indiana, while Clinton was winning an estimated 61 percent of the white vote there.

In North Carolina, Clinton won 60 percent of the white vote, while Obama claimed support from roughly 90 percent of the blacks who cast ballots.

Obama's delegate haul edged him closer to his prize — 1815.5 to 1,672 for Clinton in The Associated Press count, out of 2,025 needed to win the nomination.

As he told his supporters, Obama was on pace to finish the night within 200 delegates of the total needed. There are 217 delegates at stake in the six primaries yet to come. Another 270 superdelegates remain uncommitted.

He has long led Clinton among delegates won in the primaries and caucuses, and has increasingly narrowed his deficit among superdelegates who will attend the convention by virtue of their status as party leaders. The AP tally showed Clinton with 269.5 superdelegates, and Obama with 255.

The impact of a long-running controversy over Obama's former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, was difficult to measure.

In North Carolina, six in 10 voters who said Wright's incendiary comments affected their votes sided with Clinton. A somewhat larger percentage of voters who said the pastor's remarks did not matter supported Obama.

The questionnaire used to learn about voter motivation did not include any questions about the gasoline tax.

In Indiana, about one in five voters said they were independents, an additional one in 10 said Republican.

Only Democrats and unaffiliated voters were permitted to vote in North Carolina.

Voting in Indiana was carried out under a state law, recently upheld by the Supreme Court, that requires voters to produce a valid photo ID. About a dozen nuns in their 80s and 90s at St. Mary's Convent in South Bend were denied ballots because they lacked the necessary identification.

Obama leads Clinton in delegates won in primaries and caucuses. Despite his defeat two weeks ago, he has steadily whittled away at her advantage in superdelegates in the past two weeks and trails 269.5 to 255.

Clinton saved her candidacy with her win in Pennsylvania, and she campaigned aggressively in Indiana in hopes of denying Obama a victory next door to his home state of Illinois. Indiana is home to large numbers of blue-collar workers who have been attracted to the former first lady, and she sought to use her call for a federal gas tax holiday to draw them and other economically pinched voters closer.

Inevitably, the issue quickly took on larger dimensions.

Obama said it symbolized a candidacy consisting of "phony ideas, calculated to win elections instead of actually solving problems."

Clinton retorted, "Instead of attacking the problem, he's attacking my solutions," and ran an ad in the campaign's final hours that said she "gets it."

The balance of the primary schedule includes West Virginia, with 28 delegates on May 13; Oregon with 52 and Kentucky with 51 a week later; Puerto Rico with 55 delegates on June 1, and Montana with 16 and South Dakota with 15 on June 3.

Sen. McCain of Arizona, the Republican nomination already in hand, campaigned in North Carolina and assailed Obama for his vote against confirmation of Chief Justice John Roberts.

"Senator Obama in particular likes to talk up his background as a lecturer on law, and also as someone who can work across the aisle to get things done," McCain said. "But ... he went right along with the partisan crowd, and was among the 22 senators to vote against this highly qualified nominee."

Clinton also voted against Roberts, but McCain, as is often the case, focused his remarks on Obama.

Obama's campaign responded that the Republican would pick judges who represent a threat to abortion rights and to McCain's own legislation to limit the role of money in political campaigns.

The new batman soon

Batman raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining criminal organizations that plague the city streets. The partnership proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known to the terrified citizens of Gotham as The Joker. Written by Peteagassi

Right after taking out Ra's Al Ghul's plan and the mysterious disappearance of Dr. Jonathan Crane AKA Scarecrow, Batman continues his seemingly-endless effort to bring justice to Gotham's crime and corrupt with the help of Lt.

Ang Lee makes new 'gay movie'

If we were to say that some Hollywood director and writer were teaming up to make yet another movie about the Summer of Love’s most adapted festival, Woodstock, would you turn on your favorite Grateful Dead album in anticipation or shrug with utter indifference?

Okay, well, what if we were to say that Ang Lee and James Schamus —the same team responsible for Brokeback Mountain and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon—would be the ones behind the film? And that while retaining the word "Woodstock" in its title, it would not be about the festival proper, but how it came to be? That’s a dancing bear of a different color, no!?

Lee and Schamus, most recently together on Lust, Caution, will reunite for Taking Woodstock. According to Variety, “the film is assuredly not going to be about the famed concert itself.”

The comedy will be based on a memoir co-written by Elliot Tiber and Tom Monte entitled Taking Woodstock: A True Story of a Riot, Concert, and a Life. It will follow our Everyman, Tiber, who works at his parents’ hotel in the Catskills during the week and spends weekends in Greenwich Village with the likes of Truman Capote and Andy Warhol.

Upon hearing that the original permit for the festival, set in Walkill, N.Y., had been cancelled, Tiber contacts festival organizers to let him know about his neighbor, Max Yasgur’s dairy farm. Since he is the official permit issuer in town, he secures a permit to have Woodstock there instead. Little does he know, he is setting into motion a chain of musical and cultural events of unprecedented impact.

The film will also be another foray into homosexuality for Lee and Schamus, since Tiber was a closeted gay man until his experience at Woodstock allowed him to come out in his parents’ small town. That aspect of the memoir has apparently just as much pull on the plot as the festival itself.

The filmmakers are collaborating with Focus Features, where Schamus is CEO, and will hopefully be in production before the end of the year. Although soundtrack choices are seemingly obvious, no original or period music has yet been confirmed.

Local Parents Upset over Gay Rights Demonstration

Millbrook, Al. (WSFA) --When sixth grader Taylor Wynn found out about the "Day of Silence," a national observance of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered rights, she didn't know what to think.

"I thought it was just being respectful of the person who died," she explained.

The demonstration--held at schools across the country--honored Lawrence King, 15, shot February at a California school by a fellow student.

He later died. Friends say another boy targeted him because he was gay.

Wynn's mother Connie found out students in Millbrook were planning to silently protest during class at the middle school and Stanhope Elmore High.

Participants brought notes for teachers, explaining that they couldn't say a thing.

It's just one step, Wynn says, in a loaded protest.

"There's more to this than meets the eye [. . .] by just saying 'no' you're supporting a homosexual movement," she said.

Not so, according to L.G.B.T. rights group Equality Alabama. Board member Rhonda Thomason says the "Day of Silence" highlights the need for equal treatment and an end to discrimination.

"Whether you agree with gay issues or not, I think we agree that we want all students to be safe," Thomason explained.

Either way, parents say silence in school can cause serious problems.

"The purpose of that student being there is null," said Robert Wynn, Taylor's father.

While school administrators acknowledge parents' concerns, they say the day went off without a hitch.

They tell WSFA 12 News the demonstration didn't disrupt classes in any way.

"No one was disrespectful or did not respond to a teacher. They just had no interaction with other kids," explained Susan Jones, principal at Stanhope Elmore High School.

Still, parents say they're worried about the subject matter.

"I see it as a way to get the children to view this lifestyle as normal," said Connie Wynn.

That's a fact both sides can agree on.

"We want them to understand each other and we want them to be safe," Thomason explained.

a message from our next first Lady: Michelle Obama

Friend --

In every state across the country, there are thousands of qualified voters who are not registered to vote.

Some believe their vote doesn't matter, some have been actively disenfranchised, and some have been overlooked or excluded by a broken system that has lost touch with the concerns of ordinary Americans.

Barack and I entered this race because we believe there's a chance to change that.

From the beginning, our goal has been to reach out to people of all races, ages, and backgrounds and bring them back into the political process. We must use the rare opportunity we have right now to bring people together and make this a better country for all Americans.

That's why I'm excited to announce a 50-state voter registration and mobilization drive we're calling Vote for Change.

Beginning with a nationwide kick-off on Saturday, May 10th, more than 100 Vote for Change events will take place in every state, organized by our dedicated volunteers who are leading this campaign for change in their own communities.

Sign up to get involved now:

http://my.barackobama.com/voteforchange

This campaign is about the change in all of us -- it's about demanding that we live in a different world and being ready to fight for the vision that we have for our children.

And that starts with being engaged and engaging others.

If you're reading this, you're already somewhat engaged in this campaign. But if your experience is anything like mine, you know at least 20 other people who are not engaged, who are not focused on politics, and who may not vote in November.

If we are going to change this country, the change must come from the bottom up. That means reaching out in your community, in your circle of friends, and even in your family.

You can help get new people involved in the process so together we can finally solve the problems that this country faces.

Join Vote for Change today and start registering and mobilizing voters:

http://my.barackobama.com/voteforchange

Throughout this campaign, we've seen millions of Americans get involved who have never been interested in politics, never volunteered on a campaign, and many who have never even registered to vote before.

And some of our greatest successes have been recent.

Voter registration drives organized and conducted by supporters like you have registered more than 200,000 new Democrats in Pennsylvania, more than 165,000 new Democrats in North Carolina, and more than 150,000 new Democrats in Indiana.

Those numbers just scratch the surface of what's possible.

And that's why Barack needs you. He needs regular folks, engaged not just with their dollars, but also with their energy.

If you get involved with Vote for Change now, you can help equip enough people in this country with the tools necessary to bring about the kind of change we so desperately need.

Politics in this country can no longer be the way it's been: divided, isolated and cynical. We know in our hearts it can be so much better.

We've already come this far, and this nation-wide voter registration and mobilization drive is the next step.

Be a part of Vote for Change, bring move voices into the political process, and help America move toward a future filled with hope:

Thank you for getting involved,

Michelle

Israel 'recognises gay adoption'

JERUSALEM (AFP) — Israel has recognised for the first time the adoption by a gay couple of a child who was not born to one of them, the Haaretz daily reported.

The daily said authorities also agreed to grant Israeli citizenship to the eight-year-old Cambodian born boy.

Two men, who hold dual US and Israeli citizenship, adopted the boy in the United States in 2000.

Following his adoption the boy was granted US citizenship and was converted to Judaism, the paper said.

The child has lived in Israel on a temporary residence visa since 2001, as the two men tried unsuccessfully to register the adoption until judicial authorities told them of their decision two weeks ago.

In the past, Israel has allowed a lesbian spouse to officially adopt a child born to her partner.

Breaking the Silence rally brings attention to challenges faced by gay teens

Gay pride teens arrive at the Town Clock downtown for a rally Friday evening. (Bill Lovejoy/Sentinel)SANTA CRUZ - You might be able to talk, but can you really speak?

If you're gay, lesbian, transgendered, intersex or questioning your sexuality - and you're young - maybe not. So, do you stay quiet, instead of talking about it or living in the open out of fear of harm or ridicule?

Several dozen youth and their allies came together Friday at the Santa Cruz Town Clock to rally for ending the silence society has long demanded of people who love differently than others. Many had remained silent all day to honor the struggle of young people like eighth-grader Lawrence King, the 15-year-old Oxnard boy who was shot and killed by a classmate in February after acknowledging in school that he was gay.

"People are people and love is love," said Nick Jacque, coordinator of Breaking the Silence, an event organized by the national Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network. "It's that simple."

The rally is a jump-start for today's 11th annual Queer Youth Leadership Awards, which honor efforts to keep schools safe from sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination. The awards are sponsored by the Santa Cruz County Task Force for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered, Intersex and Questioning Youth.

Considering LGBTQI people often report first acknowledging their sexual orientation during their youth, the coalition of youngsters and straight allies said Santa Cruz must continue to be a place where youth can come out as themselves safely. But advocates say work still needs to be done to educate young people not to intimidate or harass peers based on their sexual orientation, gender identity or even a perception about those qualities.

"There is a huge silence of queer people in schools that needs to be addressed," said Jacob Breslow, a UC Santa Cruz junior who works to build bridges of support between the LGBT community on campus and those in secondary schools.

Sarananda Osheim, a 17-year-old Harbor High senior who will win an award Saturday, wrote with a marker during morning classes instead of talking. When she didn't respond to teachers or friends, they looked at her puzzled until they read her accompanying card that explained why she was staying silent.

Besides fighting to end violence against queer youth, she said students needed to see how disrespectful language is embedded in culture, like when people say, "That's so gay."

"It educated a lot of people," Osheim said. "They kind of learn from it."

Laurel Stern, a 16-year-old Santa Cruz High student and leadership award winner, said she wore tape over her mouth all day with one word written on it: "Queer." The specter of the looks she received was powerful, but only because she knew she was living out "my private self, in one word."

"No one should have to feel that isolated," she said. "Only when we begin to speak out... can we begin to end intolerance."

Vice Mayor Cynthia Mathews joined school board president Cynthia Hawthorne in voicing the city's support for the youth's efforts. "Until it's safe for everyone, no matter who you are, it's not safe for anyone," Hawthorne said.
