Unsafe sex now safe says health officials?
2008-02-02 14:51:00
Most doctors will tell you to practice safe sex if you don't want to get HIV. You never know if the person your sleeping with is infected or not. But some now disagree and claim that it can be safe to have unprotected sex with HIV Positive people under certain conditions. Say What? Swiss AIDS experts said Thursday that some people with HIV who meet strict conditions and are under treatment can safely have unprotected sex with non-infected partners. The proposal astonished AIDS researchers in Europe and North America who have long argued that safe sex with a condom is the single most effective way of preventing the spread of the disease - apart from abstinence. The Swiss National AIDS Commission said patients who can satisfy strict conditions, including successful antiretroviral treatment to suppress the virus and who do not have any other sexually transmitted diseases, do not pose a danger to others. The proposal was published this week in the Bulletin of Swiss Medicine. The Swis...

Vermont Town votes to put Bush in jail
2008-01-30 18:51:00
The small town of Brattleboro in Vermont , population 8,720 passed around a petition to make President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney subject to arrest for crimes against the Constitution. With more than 436 signatures, or at least the 5 percent of voters necessary to be considered, it was submitted Thursday and the town Select Board voted 3-2 Friday to put it on the ballot. It goes to a town-wide vote March 4. It reads: "Shall the Selectboard instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution, and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities and shall it be the law of the Town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro Police, pursuant to the above-mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro if they are not duly impeached, and prosecute or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them?"

Girl on leash gets kicked off bus
2008-01-26 15:38:00
I truly believe that everyone has just little freak inside of them. Now I don't see anything at all wrong with this, to each his or her own as I always say. This next story comes out of London and made me laugh. A British bus driver threw a girl off a bus after her boyfriend led her on wearing a leash. She was dressed in black Gothic-style clothing with silver buckles on a silver chain which the driver of a bus took exception to. She told the Daily Mail newspaper Wednesday she was thrown off and told they don't let freaks and dogs like her on. Tasha Maltby, 19, told British newspapers she was the "pet" of her 25-year-old fiance Dani Graves. The bus company would not comment on specifics but said it apologized if the couple felt they had been discriminated against. It added, however, that the driver was worried about safety and the company told the girl to take the leash off in the future. Maltby -- who lives on state benefits and got engaged in November -- said her choice of life...

God killed Heath Ledger says Church Group
2008-01-24 21:57:00
While New York Police are still looking into what caused the death of actor Heath Ledger , a small church in Topeka, Kansas already knows the answer. They say God killed him and they plan to picket his funeral. While they don't know the exact location and date, they have already made signs that read "God Hates Fags and Fag Enablers," "Heath in Hell" and "Mourn for Your Sins." Though Ledger was not gay, the church believes he misused the giant megaphone given to him by God Almighty to speak the truth about fags, and instead used his position of prominence to say God is a liar and that homosexuality is not an abomination. This comes as no surprise to many since this is the same fundamentalist church whose members demonstrate at the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq and believe God hates gays. It's none other than Pastor Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kan. The time and location of the Ledger's funeral remain unknown, but it is widely believed it will take pl...

Super Tuesday can't pick the winner
2008-01-24 21:14:00
In recent weeks so many in the media have been talking about Super Tuesday and how on this day will decide the nominations and declare a front runner. With more than 20 states going to the polls, it will be the biggest day of the primary campaign, and thousands of delegates will be at stake. But don't look to crown any presidential nominees on Super Tuesday. The race for delegates is so close in both parties that it is mathematically impossible for any candidate to lock up the nomination on Feb. 5. According to an Associated Press: Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton leads the race for delegates to the Democratic National Convention this summer. She has 236, including separately chosen party and elected officials known as superdelegates, giving her a 100-delegate lead over Sen. Barack Obama. There will be nearly 1,700 Democratic delegates at stake on Feb. 5, enough to put a candidate well on his or her way to the 2,025 needed to secure the nomination. But even if somehow either Clinton o...

Heath Ledger found dead at 28
2008-01-23 04:07:00
As we reported earlier this year Heath Ledger was rumored to be signing a deal to star in a sequel to the hit gay cowboy flick Brokeback Mountain. Looks like that project will never see the light of day as the Australian-born actor was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan apartment. Police reports claim he was naked in bed with sleeping pills nearby. It wasn't immediately clear if Ledger had committed suicide. He had an appointment for a massage at a residence in the tony neighborhood of SoHo. A housekeeper who went to let him know the massage therapist had arrived found him dead at 3:26 p.m. Other news reports said the actors death could be a suicide. He had been married to another Brokeback actor, Michelle Williams, who played his wife in the film. The two had a daughter, Matilda, and lived together in Brooklyn until they split up last year. A large crowd of paparazzi and gawkers gathered outside the building on an upscale block. Ledger's body was still inside, and sev...

Teen Superstar to play Gay
2008-01-21 19:18:00
Any young teenage girl or gay youth knows exactly who Lucas Grabeel is. For the rest of us however, he is is an American actor and singer songwriter. He is perhaps best known for his role as Ryan Evans in the Disney Channel Original Movie High School Musical and its sequel High School Musical 2. He also starred as Ethan Dalloway in the third and fourth installments of Halloweentown and Return to Halloweentown. Now we learn that High School Musical cutie Lucas Grabeel has just been cast in the new Harvey Milk biopic. The film will tell the tale of the slain San Franciso gay activist and politician. Milk is being directed by Gus Van Sant and stars Sean Penn as Milk and James Franco as his gay lover. Lucas will play Danny Nicoletta, a friend and supporter of Harvey Milk's.

After Milk was gunned down, Nicoletta and other...

Clinton bitch slaps Obama again
2008-01-20 12:06:00
Lets start off by saying that I like both Clinton and Obama and would be fine with either one taking up residence in the White House. With that said, if Clinton and Obama were cell mates, Obama would clearly be Clinton's prison bitch. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton won the Nevada caucuses Saturday, powering past Barack Obama in a hard-fought race marred by last-minute charges of dirty politics. The the question I have is simple, dose Obama have what it takes to win in a general election against the well oiled republican machine? While Obama has great stage presents and can make people feel good about them selfs and the future of the country, Clinton is a cold and calculating bitch. And lets face it, politics is a very dirty contact sport. Lets take a look back over the last few weeks at some major missteps as I see them. First Obama goes after Clinton by using Dr. Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech. Really stupid move in my opinion and heres why I think that. First off the...

Rent on Broadway to end run..
2008-01-18 00:28:00
One of the gayest shows on Broadway is about to have it's final curtain call. The pop-rock musical "Rent " will close June 1 after a 12-year run, 5,012 performances and an assortment of prizes and awards, including the Tony and Pulitzer - not to mentions grosses of over $280 million. Inspired by the Puccini opera "La Boheme," Jonathan Larson's look at the counterculture residents of New York's East Village in the early 1990s was one of those shows you might have thought would always be around. It spoke to a generation, much like "Hair" did in the late 1960s and perhaps "Spring Awakening" does to the current crop of young theatergoers. "Rent" was born in tragedy, with the 35-year-old Larson dying just before the show began performances at off-Broadway's New York Theatre Workshop. The musical received rave reviews and in April 1996 quickly moved to Broadway's Nederlander Theatre, where it became the theater's longest-running tenant. "Rent" will end its engagement in seventh plac...

When it comes to news, it's still very much the silly season. Which means that many stories are getting more coverage than they really deserve. And there's no better example of that than the hilarious tale of Corey Delaney, the kid whose party was publicised on MySpace, and got over 500 gatecrashers, including dozens of police and a helicopter. His parents were out of town while the party swelled to hundreds of drunk naked kids smashing in car windows and terrorizing neighbors. Television crews showed up at the sense during the party and started filming, the video below is from a live interview of the now famous Corey Delaney.

Dildo Causes Bomb Scare
2008-01-16 23:27:00
In this day and age many people still fear that a terrorist attack could come at any moment. A Swedish bomb squad was called out to disarm a suspicious package on Wednesday but did not find a ticking bomb. A janitor alerted police after he found the package in a garage of an apartment building in Goteborg, the country's second-largest city. The package was humming and vibrating suspiciously, so police took no chances and sent out a team of explosives experts. After having evacuated and cordoned off the area, they opened the package with bomb disposal equipment, only to find the battery-operated vibrating sex toy. No lesbians immediately came forward to claim the device.

Romney and Clinton Sweep..
2008-01-16 05:04:00
Michigan's Primary was held on Tuesday for both Democrats and Republicans. Mitt Romney capitalized on his Michigan ties Tuesday - especially among voters who made up their minds in the past week - while John McCain found far fewer Republican primary votes among the Democrats and independents who keyed his victory here eight years ago. On the Democratic side Hillary Clinton swept the state with little effort. But this win means very little as Barack Obama and John Edwards withdrew from the ballot because of questions about whether the state's delegates would be seated at the Democratic convention. Clinton, who would become the nation's first female president, won particularly strong support among women and older voters. So what do these results mean if anything? Both parties are punishing Michigan for setting their primary before February 5th. While republicans are taking half of the states delegates away, The Demacratic party is taking all of them away. This means Hillary has ...

Dennis Kucinich wants a recount
2008-01-12 20:30:00
Crazy, Party of one, your table is ready! Democrat Dennis Kucinich , who won less than 2 percent of the vote in the New Hampshire primary, said Thursday he wants a recount to ensure that all ballots in his party's contest were counted. The Ohio congressman cited "serious and credible reports, allegations and rumors" about the integrity of Tuesday results. Kucinich alluded to online reports alleging disparities around the state between hand-counted ballots, which tended to favor Sen. Barack Obama, and machine-counted ones that tended to favor Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. He also noted the difference between pre-election polls, which indicated Obama would win, and Clinton's triumph by a 39 percent to 37 percent margin. What a complete waste of tax payer money. First of all, New Hampshire's voting machines are not linked in any way, so likelihood of tampering with results on a statewide level is crazy. Also, the results can be checked against paper ballots. Hillary Clinton would hav...

New York gets it's first toilet
2008-01-12 20:05:00
Anyone who has has ever visited or lives in New York City knows a toilet is a very hard thing to find. Shops don't have them and restaurants and bars won't let you use them unless you buy things. There are a few of them in the Public parks but they are a rare find and if you do find one it's normally covered in piss, puke, and other things we can't mention. New Yorkers attended the opening of the city's first public pay-potty in Manhattan on Thursday. The potty is one of an eventual 20 toilets to be installed around the tightly packed streets of Manhattan. Best of all these babies clean them selfs after each and every use. New Yorkers have tried using similar facilities in the past but had little success keeping them in order. Bums would move into them and set up home and they would become very dirty, very fast. The toilet, which costs 25 cents only allow a 15-minute visit, after 12 minutes a warning countdown will begin and the door will magically swing open when your 15 minu...

Eminem is Fat and Depressed
2008-01-12 03:32:00
Eminem was hospitalized over the Christmas holiday for possible heart problems as well as pneumonia and seems to be going down hill fast according to friends and his Mother. The rapper has been living in a constant state of depression, cut off from human contact while he eats massive amounts of food. Reportedly well on his way to obesity at the rate he's going, the 5 foot 7 rapper currently weighs in at approximately 203 pounds. Suffering from insomnia, Eminem has taken to ordering in--mostly Mexican food and filet mignon--often paying for himself and his entire entourage. His mother has expressed concern at his current physical state, likening him to the late Elvis Presley. "He's let his blond hair grow out, so everything but the ends are dark, his face has broken out in pimples and he's put on so much weight that he's causing all sorts of other health problems for himself."

Man finds wife at a brothel, Duh..
2008-01-12 00:15:00
A lot of people in relationships have been know to cheat on one another, it's pretty common. But most people never get caught doing it. Well imagine for a second that both parities are cheating and both catch each other doing it at the exact same moment in time. A Polish man got the shock of his life when he visited a brothel and spotted his wife among the establishment's employees. Polish tabloid Super Express said the woman had been making some extra money on the side while telling her husband she worked at a store in a nearby town. The couple, married for 14 years, are now divorcing, the newspaper reported. Now my question is why get a divorce? I mean both of them were cheating right? So clearly they are perfect for each other. The Husband later told the paper that he was dumfounded and thought he was dreaming. Well what the hell were you doing in the brothel in the first place? This story just made me chuckle.

Thank you for smoking
2008-01-11 21:46:00
Here in the US, smokers tend to get picked on all the time. Over in Germany a new law was introduced in January banning smoking in pubs and restaurants, but but Germans working in small offices are still allowed to smoke. The owner of a small German computer company has fired three non-smoking workers because they were threatening to disturb the peace after they requested a smoke-free environment. The manager of the 10-person IT company in Buesum, named Thomas J., told the Hamburger Morgenpost newspaper he had fired the trio because their non-smoking was causing disruptions. "I can't be bothered with trouble-makers," Thomas was quoted saying. "We're on the phone all the time and it's just easier to work while smoking. Everyone picks on smokers these days. It's time for revenge. I'm only going to hire smokers from now on." I will have to say this news made me smile. Yes smoking is a dirty habit, but some of these laws just go way overboard if you ask me.

How to be Gay 101
2008-01-11 10:50:00
Ever wonder to yourself what it means to be gay? Is there a certain way your have to act? Some of you may be interested to know that the University of Michigan now offers a course so you to can learn how to be gay. Nope, I'm not kidding, read it for yourself. ENGLISH 317. Literature and Culture. Section 002 — How to be Gay: Male Homosexuality and Initiation. Course Description: Just because you happen to be a gay man doesn't mean that you don't have to learn how to become one. Gay men do some of that learning on their own, but often we learn how to be gay from others, either because we look to them for instruction or because they simply tell us what they think we need to know, whether we ask for their advice or not. This course will examine the general topic of the role that initiation plays in the formation of gay male identity. We will approach it from three angles: (1) as a sub-cultural practice — subtle, complex, and difficult to theorize — which a small but significant ...

Bush lies to start another war?
2008-01-10 19:49:00
The Pentagon released a video and audio tape on Tuesday that it said confirmed US charges that Iranian speedboats swarmed around US warships in the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday and radioed a threat to blow them up. Bush later appeared on US television threating Iran and calling them a threat to the United States. The confrontation has further inflamed tensions between Iran and the United States which are locked in a standoff over Tehran's controversial nuclear drive. This claim was proven "fictional" however after Iranian state television released their own tape of the confrontation, if you can call it that. The four-minute video broadcast by English-language channel Press-TV showed an Iranian commander in a speedboat contacting an American sailor via radio, asking him to identify the US vessels and state their purpose.

Say goodbye to Netscape
2008-01-10 09:44:00
AOL is to cease support for the Netscape web browser from 1 February 2008 and is advising customers to move to Firefox. Netscape director Tom Drapeau says that the browser is not making any inroads against Internet Explorer and that the company will concentrate on other areas. Netscape was set up in 1994 by internet pioneers Marc Andreessen and Jim Clark as 'Mosaic' and was initially the most popular browser in the world. However, after Microsoft targeted the company by releasing Internet Explorer for free the company went into decline and was bought by AOL in 1998 for $4.2bn. Wow, AOL spent billions on a browser just to kill it 10 years later. What a waste of money. I use to use Netscape a lot until FireFox came out. But in case you didn't know, the people who built FireFox are the same people who built Netscape, so the browser really isn't going away, just the name and AOL's control over it. Which is a good thing really because as we all know, everything AOL touches turns to...
