and in the news...

I've decided to copy Towleroad.com's style in reporting. I'll just give bulleted reports in my blog and if you guys are interested, just click on the links to get the meat. I've been a fan of Towleroad's blog for a while now and just wanted to make sure people read the news that was on there. It's really socially relevant. I do take the time to read all posts myself and read all the linked news articles just to make sure I'm educated before I type anything.

• One person injured during Gay Pride in Jerusalem when a bomb exploded. the bomb was planted as a show of protest.Ultra-Orthodox Jews might be behind said explosion.
• Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's founding leader, said the country should rethink it's view of homosexuality in the advent of genetic research showing it's not a preference but a genetic trait. Currently, Gay Sex in Singapore is considered improper and is punishable by up to two years prison sentence.
• John Mangan, professor of economics at the University of Queensland and Professor Vani Borooah of the University of Ulster are co-authors of a paper, entitled "Love Thy Neighbour: How Much Bigotry Is There In Western Countries?" Paper proves bigotry is not an "Australian" thing, but more of a "Western" thing in general.
• Eliot Spitzer, the State of New York's governor, will hold true to his word (pre-election) and introduce a bill to legalize Gay Marriage in New York.

I hope the writers at Towleroad don't object to my posting.
