  • Dream Lover: I'm dying over this face-to-face photo of me with my college dream hubby John Bolger my friend sent me taken at the "Parting Glances" restoration party the other night. Twenty years in the making, it looks like I'm finally about to make my move on him (if I had one). Don't just trust me that it was the most wonderful night ever. Go visit Matt's site for lots more new photos and video footage from the fascinating Q&A that followed the screening. (BoyCulture)

  • Manhattan Murder Mystery: The city is abuzz about the brutal murder of former Ramones manager turned real estate broker to the stars, Linda Stein. The ex-wife of Seymour Stein, who famously signed Madonna to Sire Records all those years ago, it was finding a place for Madonna that put Linda on the real estate map in the mid-'80s and she never looked back. "I had a great visit with Linda and Seymour backstage after my show last year at Madison Square Garden, and we of course reminisced about the good old days," Madonna said. "I deeply admired her courage in her battle with breast cancer, as well as her career success." Stein's daughter found her body Tuesday night face down in the living room of the Upper East Side apartment, where she lived alone. There were no signs of a break-in or robbery, and police said they had no motive or suspects. An autopsy found that Stein, 62, died from blows to the head and neck, a medical examiner spokeswoman said Wednesday. (AP)

  • So Trans-parent: A Scottsdale bar owner under investigation by the Arizona Attorney General's Office for barring transsexuals says he has lifted the ban, but will not permit the trans woman who filed the complaint into the establishment. (Who's being a diva now?) (365Gay)

  • 'Make Every Shot, a Crotch Shot': The head of a leading Japanese ad agency secretly snapped crotch shots of tennis star Maria Sharapova as she posed for a popular Canon camera ad in 2005 -- then passed the photo around to colleagues, a federal lawsuit claims. Toyo Shigeta, chief executive officer of Dentsu Holdings, used a telephoto lens to satisfy a perverse obsession with photographing women's private parts, according to a suit filed by the firm's fired former creative director, Steve Biegel. I bet he wouldn't have done it if he'd known what a dismal season she'd have just two years later. (NYDN)

  • Writers' Strike: Oh, no! What will we do without any new episodes of "According to Jim"? (NYT)

  • Just (Bi) Curious: Why would Neal Boulton, a straight, married-with-kids man be writing something like this (above), even if he is the new editor of Genre magazine?

  • How Progressive: The Los Angeles City Council agreed Wednesday to reinstate policies banning discrimination in the hiring and promoting of gays and lesbians in the Los Angeles Police Department. Next up? Reinstating a policy against endlessly bludgeoning unarmed black men for fun. (Advocate)

  • The Gay Ceiling: A survey of gay and lesbian employees across the U.S. has found that "fears about disclosing a gay identity at work had an overwhelmingly negative relationship with their career and workplace experiences and with their psychological well-being." (365Gay)

  • The 'R' Word: No one ever accused Dog the Bounty Hunter of not being an idiot, but this has to be the most retarded thing anyone has ever done. Nothing says "I'm not a racist" like screaming "" over and over again as you explain how much you're not a racist. I can hardly wait for Don Imus to interview him on his new show. (AP)

  • Two Out of Three Ain't Bad: Don't you hate it when you murder your parents to "spare them grief" when you commit suicide but somehow you're unable to do yourself in? (365Gay)

  • It's His Party and He'll Stay if He Wants To: Sen. Larry Craig won't go away and suddenly the GOP isn't telling him to. (The Hill)

  • The Principal Is Your Pal: Just because you're the principal of a Catholic school doesn't mean you can't loiter in a high drug trafficking and prostitution area wearing leather and fishnets. (SmokingGun)
