The Assembly took a big step toward getting gay marriage legalized in New York Tuesday by passing the watershed Marriage Equality bill.

The bill passed the Assembly floor by a solid margin with a vote of 85 to 61.

The vote came after advocates for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender causes in Brooklyn as well as around the state bandied together to get their local Assembly members to approve the measure, which was initiated by Governor Eliot Spitzer.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) A big flap over a yearbook photo at Newark’s East Side High School. Staff used markers to black out a picture of a male student kissing his boyfriend from all copies of the school’s yearbook before they were distributed to students this week.

Marion Bolden, Newark’s superintendent of schools, says the photograph of 18-year-old Andre Jackson kissing David Escobales in the yearbook was “illicit” and looked provocative.

    Sacked Grey’s Anatomy star Isaiah Washington has found an unlikely supporter – a gay activist has launched a petition to have him return to the hit show.
The actor was being fired from the medical drama earlier this month (Jun07), following public outrage after calling castmate T.R. Knight “a faggot” last October (06) – a comment he then repeated at the Golden Globe Awards earlier this year (07).

But gay activist Jasmyne Cannick, who worked with Washington at the Pan African Arts Festival, has spearheaded the campaign to clear the star’s name and have him reinstated on the show – and now has 1,233 signatures of support.

The petition believes Washington’s sacking “further adds to a disturbing new trend at Abc wherein minority actors have been dismissed at an alarming rate over the past two years.

In November 1978, arriving back in Katmandu after a long Himalayan trek, an envelope full of news clips from home caused me to utter an exclamation not printable in this family newspaper.

A headline across the top of the Seattle P-I front page carried big news: Seattle had just become the first town in America to vote AGAINST a bid to repeal its city ordinance prohibiting discrimination against gays and lesbians.

Anita Bryant and her ilk were turned back by a civic campaign, chaired by Mayor Charley Royer’s then-wife Rosanne, arguing the right to privacy.

CHICAGO – Nevermind that Chicago hosted the 2006 International Gay Games. Or that it has the country’s first government-recognized gay neighborhood. Or that up to 400,000 people attend the city’s Gay Pride Parade each year.

When most people think of gay-friendly cities, Chicago – hog butcher to the world, home of the Blues Brothers, legendary playground of Al Capone – isn’t even on the map. While New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles long ago established themselves as America’s gay meccas, Chicago’s reach has seldom extended beyond the Midwest.

But city officials, including Mayor Richard M. Daley, and members of the gay community are hoping a new community center – the largest in the region – establishes Chicago as a national destination for gays, with resources geared toward both residents and tourists.

>Australian Prime Minister John Howard Thursday ruled out legalizing same-sex marriages despite a new survey showing that most Australians support giving homosexuals the right to tie the knot. “There’s no possibility of our attitude in relation to gay marriage changing,” the conservative leader told a radio interviewer.

Howard’s remarks came as national opinion poll found that 57 percent of Australians support same-sex marriage.

The Galaxy survey of 1,100 Australians also found that 71 percent believe same-sex de facto couples should be entitled to the same legal rights as their heterosexual counterparts. The leader of the Australian Greens party, who is gay, said the poll illustrated that the government and the main opposition Labor Party lagged behind voters in their attitudes.

SAN FRANCISCO — The airman’s dress blues are faded, the footlocker he carried through three tours in Vietnam has gone to rust. Yet the epitaph he chose to mark his grave is still as fresh as today’s headlines: “When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.”

Leonard Matlovich’s medals, uniform and other personal effects make up the centerpiece of “Out Ranks,” a new exhibit that documents the tortured relationship between gay troops and the U.S. military from World War II to the present.

Matlovich, who died in 1988, was a decorated Air Force sergeant who came out to his commanding officer a month before the fall of Saigon, hoping to challenge the government’s ban on gay service members. In 1975, the idea of an openly gay combat veteran was incongruous enough to land him on the cover of Time magazine.
