A look that's bullet proof -- fashion's use of military styles takes a turn I could not have fathomed. Meanwhile, fall 2010 menswear collections, I have very mixed feelings about you.

Children in focus in NJ same-sex marriage case.

Gay rights to be part of Nepal's charter.

Bet this story will be ugly and all about bigotry when the whole thing comes out: plane "forced down" because of some sort of "disruptive passenger" and "prayer beads."

For those of you wishing to see Dogboy & Justine, my one-act about dominatrixes and head-injuries, tickets are now available from The Secret Theater website.



Dogboy & Justine is part of Act Five: One Acts and has made it past the first round of judging. Now it runs with five other plays through Saturday night. At the end of the performances each night you will have a chance to vote for your favorite plays! After Saturday's performance a winner will be declared and hey, for $15 you get five plays!

So:

Go here: https://www.ovationtix.com/trs/cal/1681/1262377800000/prm/ to buy tickets for this week and please vote for Dogboy & Justine.

The theater is located in Queens, one stop from Manhattan on multiple train lines. It's part of a larger arts center with galleries and studios and stuff, so it could be a fun outing!

The Children in New Jersey article broke my heart. Most especially this phrase: While opponents of same-sex marriage worry that schools will teach that gay and straight relationships are equal

OF COURSE THEY'RE EQUAL, YOU ASSHOLES. IT'S A RELATIONSHIP. SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE'S.

Sigh.

ETA: More rage. The redirected flight? It was because a guy was wearing tfillin.

ETA2: Even moar raeg. The Supreme Court threw out a 63-year-old law designed to restrain the influence of big business and unions on elections Thursday, ruling that corporations may spend as freely as they like to support or oppose candidates for president and Congress.

I was wondering about this line...

"Children do best when raised by their own biological mother and father who are committed to one another in a lifelong marriage."

Are they implying that adopted children don't do as best? Or am I just reading too much into that?
