SEGMENT #1 –  NewsWrap:  Chris Carter, New Zealand's first openly-gay Member 
of Parliament, will become his nation's first openly gay Cabinet minister, 
but the coalition government is faced with serious challenges;  financial 
struggles apparently lead to the permanent demise of New Zealand's largest 
gay & lesbian parade and festival, Auckland's HERO, and in Britain, police 
concerns curtail Manchester's big queer Mardi Gras festival, and London's 
event lost 400,000 pounds this year, but annual pride events are successfully 
celebrated in Brighton, and for the second time in Singapore;  a South Korean 
court has reportedly upheld the government's censorship of gay Web site 
Exzone.com;  Britain's Office for National Statistics will for the first time 
begin to ask about sexual orientation in its regular surveys, and there are 
notable gains in legal recognition of same-gender couples in the British 
Parliament and New York City;  Australia will soon have its first Asian woman 
and apparently first lesbian Senator, South Australia's Penny Wong;  and 9/11 
hero Mark Bingham and Grammy-winning Melissa Etheridge each get hometown 
honors [written by CINDY FRIEDMAN, with thanks to GRAHAM UNDERHILL, BRIAN 
NUNES, JASON LIN, CHRIS AMBIDGE, REX WOCKNER, LUCIA CHAPPELLE & GREG GORDON, 
and anchored by CINDY FRIEDMAN & CHRISTOPHER GAAL] [10:00]  +  Billboard for 
Kate Clinton and Anita Cornwell features (over "NewsWrap" outro music) [:10] 
. . .  10:10

SEGMENT #2 -  There's more than one thing that sets the GAY GAMES apart from 
the Olympics and other supposedly "straight" world-class sporting events.  
Unlike even the Paralympics, which are treated more like poor relatives in 
the world of international athletic competition, participation of people with 
special needs and disabilities is fully integrated into the Gay Games.  The 
SPECIAL NEEDS AND DISABILITIES (S.N.D.) OUTREACH group of the 2002 Games, 
being held this November in Sydney, Australia, has been committed to 
maximizing inclusion of the differently-abled.  Our correspondent UMA KALI 
SHAKTI [from "Gaywaves" on 2SER/Sydney] chats with Gay Games S.N.D. Outreach 
group member BILL RIGNEY to learn more. .   5:45

SEGMENT #3 -  Lesbian-feminist humorist KATE CLINTON has some funny things to 
say about the Gay Games, her high school basketball career, and dyke-avoiding 
television coverage of WNBA games (from her hilarious 1999 audio book "Don't 
Get Me Started") + her "TWO" I.D. . . . . . . . . . . .   2:50

SEGMENT #4 -  ANITA CORNWELL was one of the first writers to identify as a 
black lesbian in print.  Her "BLACK LESBIAN IN WHITE AMERICA", published by 
Naiad Press in 1983, launched a heated debate that has never really been 
resolved.  This Way Out's JANET MASON [with thanks for production assistance 
to DEBRA D'ALLESANDRO/WXPN-Philadelphia] reflects on her friendship with the 
pioneering writer and discusses why Cornwell's vibrant message still 
resonates today (with intro music from "Give Your Hands To Struggle" by SWEET 
HONEY IN THE ROCK) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   7:25
