News: Hubble, Ian Thorpe, South Park, Sean Hayes, Poland

March 20, 2008 by Andy Towle

road.jpg The NYT talks to gay New Yorker Brendan Fay about the Polish President’s use of his wedding video: “[Krzysztof W. Kasprzyk, Poland’s consul general in New York] said he did not know why President Kaczynski’s staff members used Mr. Fay’s image. ‘Probably they were just looking for a useful picture,’ Mr. Karkowski said, ‘a visible sign of what he and his followers are against and what, supposedly, his political opponents are for.'”

road.jpg Huffington Post’s Barbara Ehrenreich on Hillary’s nasty pastorate: “You can find all about it in a widely under-read article in the September 2007 issue of Mother Jones, in which Kathryn Joyce and Jeff Sharlet reported that ‘through all of her years in Washington, Clinton has been an active participant in conservative Bible study and prayer circles that are part of a secretive Capitol Hill group known as the ‘Fellowship,’ aka The Family.’ Sean Hannity has called Obama’s church a ‘cult,’ but that term applies far more aptly to Clinton’s ‘Family,’ which is organized into ‘cells’ — their term — and operates sex-segregated group homes for young people in northern Virginia. In 2002, writer Jeff Sharlet joined the Family’s home for young men, foreswearing sex, drugs, and alcohol, and participating in endless discussions of Jesus and power.

road.jpg The gay divide in doctor’s advice: ” Gay men are much more likely than straights to consult a medical specialist, while lesbians are more reluctant than heterosexual women to go to a family doctor — if they even have one. The study for Statistics Canada found 29% of gay men consulted a medical specialist in a one-year period compared with 19% of heterosexual men.”

road.jpg Ted Haggard escort Mike Jones told to keep his pants on in Naked B4 God: “In sharing his story, Jones drops tidbits about not just Haggard, but Paula Woodward, the TV reporter he first talked to (and who was in the audience at the premiere) and Peter Boyles, on whose radio show he went public. And on opening night, he also dropped his shorts around his sneakers — showing his jones as he demonstrated how he would massage Art. But that was before someone suggested to director Michael Dempsey that the full-frontal nudity that had been part of the play when it debuted in California might violate Denver ordinances.”

Hbroad.jpg Hubble telescope detects first-ever organic molecule on a planet orbiting another star: “Hubble found the tell-tale signature of methane in the atmosphere of the Jupiter-sized extrasolar planet HD 189733b. Under the right circumstances, methane can play a key role in prebiotic chemistry – the chemical reactions considered necessary to form life as we know it. Although methane has been detected on most of the planets in our Solar System, this is the first time any organic molecule has been detected on a world orbiting another star.”

road.jpg The Daily Mail looks back on Sir John Gielgud’s men’s room arrest: “And so, despite his brand-new knighthood, one of the most celebrated men of the times found himself that October in a Chelsea lavatory well-known as one of London’s favourite pick-up joints, looking for his usual evening’s entertainment. But this time, his eye lighted not on a fellow member of the underground homosexual community, but on a plain-clothes policeman.”
