SEGMENT #1 - "NewsWrap": A Latvian court rules that Riga's ban on LGBT Pride
marches is illegal, but the Moldovan capital of Chisinau bans a planned march
there, and a Moscow official warns that organizers planning to defy that
city's ban are "playing with fire"; the British city of Brighton will hoist the
rainbow flag as part of its observance of the International Day Against
Homophobia; there's been yet another violent attack against gay men in Jamaica, a
Honduran gay activist is beaten by police who allow him to be repeatedly raped
by fellow detainees, and two young lesbians escape from a month of captivity
and beatings by Maoist rebels in southern Nepal; the U.S. state of Washington
legislates a limited form of domestic partnerships for its queer couples; and
lesbigay families roll Easter eggs at the White House (written by GREG
GORDON, with thanks to GRAHAM UNDERHILL and REX WOCKNER with BILL KELLEY, and
reported this week by DON LUPO and CHARLS HALL) [10:17] + Billboard for V. Gene
Robinson interview (over instrumental intro to Segment #2) [:14] . . . . . . . .

SEGMENT #2 - Openly gay CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLYMEMBER MARK LENO is again the
driving force behind a new state marriage equality measure. Leno's bill was
approved by the Assembly Judiciary Committee this week, but can it overcome the
continuing veto threat by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger? CHRISTOPHER MARTINEZ
of KPFA Radio News reports from the state capital in Sacramento (with intro
music from "With This Ring" by THE PLATTERS). . 4:44
SEGMENT #3 - A "RAINBOW MINUTE" remembers Emilio Menendez and Carlos German,

LUPOLETTI). . . . 1:00
SEGMENT #4 - "TWO" Email Lists promo . . . . . . . . . . . . . :56
SEGMENT #5 - The threat of schism still looms over the worldwide Anglican
Communion, largely because of the U.S. Episcopal Church's consecration of V.
GENE ROBINSON of New Hampshire as the denomination's first openly gay bishop.
Robinson's extraordinary journey began when he was just a child. This Way Out
correspondent VIVIAN MARIE got Robinson to talk about his miraculous birth and
other events during his formative years that paved the way for his
controversial ecclesiastical career (with outro music from "Come Out And Go Forth" by
MARSHA STEVENS). . . . . . . . . . . 9:08
