<p>Last week we were talking about Don&#8217;t Ask Don&#8217;t Tell and were surprised that we hadn&#8217;t heard anything from Ricky Martin on the topic.  It seems that Ricky is speaking for the Give A Damn Campaign, which is a project of Cyndi Lauper’s True Colors Fund.  Watch their latest public service announcement featuring Ricky Martin, Elton John, Idina Menzel, Wanda Sykes, and Rachael Harris, as they ask for your help to bring about the end of hate crimes.</p>

<p>One can only hope.  <a href="http://www.salon.com/news/walmart/index.html?story=/news/feature/2010/09/20/wal_mart_urban_expansion">Salon.com</a> reports that Wal-Mart Inc. is planning to push into urban markets like New York City and San Francisco, but in a smaller format.  The purposed new stores will be approximately 20,000 square feet as opposed to their typical 150,000 to 195,000 square foot Supercenters that are all over the United States.  The new stores, will be a hybrid between their smaller stores (15,000 sq. ft) called Marketside and their Supercenters.  In New York City, Wal-Mart is looking in Queens and lower Manhattan.      </p>
<p>We can only imagine the eccentric New York City people that will be frequenting the purposed Wal-Mart.  If it&#8217;s anything like the site <a href="http://peopleofwalmart.com">peopleofwalmart.com</a> features, we are in for quite the treat.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We know many of you are as upset as we are over today’s loss in the Senate.  Even those not politically inclined, are asking what they can do to bring about change.  </p>
<p>Don’t Ask Don’t Tell is a law that requires gay soldiers to hide their sexuality in order to serve.  Roughly 13,000 men and women have been discharged from the military under the law since it was put in place in 1993.</p>
<p>This afternoon, Democrats failed to meet the 60 votes necessary to get the Senate to repeal the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell law.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.getequal.org">GetEQUAL,</a> a national, direct action lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender civil rights organization, are asking you to <a href="http://org2.democracyinaction.org/o/6535/t/11098/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=666">sign this petition</a> urging President Obama to stop discharging lesbian and gay service members immediately.  </p>
<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/getequal">Also be sure to join GetEQUAL’s fan page on Facebook.</a>  This is very important.  Time is not on our side.</p>

<p>According to CNN, terminally ill cancer patients struggling with anxiety might be able to get some relief by tripping on shrooms.  A recent study was conducted with 12 patients who took a small dose of psilocybin, the active ingredient in shrooms, while under the supervision of therapists.  Another group took a placebo pill, which had little effect on their symptoms.  </p>
<p>The patients who took the psilocybin, after one to three months, felt less anxious and their overall mood improved.  After six months, the group&#8217;s measure of depression decreased by 30 percent.  </p>
<p>See, shrooms bring good afterall and make you laugh, a lot like this fool.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An ancient dildo was excavated last week in Sweden.  Archaeologist Gsran Gruber of the National Heritage Board in Sweden said:</p>
<p>&#8220;Your mind and my mind wanders away to make this interpretation about what it looks like &#8212; for you and me, it signals this erected-penis-like shape. But if that&#8217;s the way the Stone Age people thought about it, I can&#8217;t say.&#8221; </p>
<p>You can’t say Gsran Gruber?  Come on now.  What else did the Stone Age people have to do besides make fire, hunt, and fuck themselves with decrepit dildos.     </p>
<p>By the way, the ancient dildo isn’t very impressive at about 4 inches long and 0.8 inches in diameter.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let’s be honest, most people use the internet for social networking, shopping, and porn so it would only be fitting that the adult industry may be finally getting their own domain .xxx.  ICANN, the not-for-profit corporation that coordinates the internet&#8217;s naming system, voted to allow the application of the controversial &#8220;.xxx&#8221; top-level domain name for sites that display adult content.  The domain might be mandatory for adult-only sites and the ICM registry already has 110,000 pre-reservations for the domain which could be available sooner than 2011.  </p>
<p>The .xxx is pretty hot.  It automatically makes you think of sex. Maybe we should change our name to thescenestirz.xxx.  </p>
