Hip-hop, ha-ha and homo electro pop in the "Audiofile";
A frosty gay flavor-fest fascinates the Big Apple;
Marriage equality gives Australian Greens the electoral edge, self-
outings shake up U.S. and U.K. politics, the Pentagon asks military
spouses insulting "Don't Ask Don't Tell" questions, Nepal's gay M.P.
leads an international parade atop a proud pachyderm, and more news
  
- In "NewsWrap": A Greens surge in Australia's national elections bodes well for LGBT people and their allies... Ken Mehlman, one of the architects of the 2004 Bush campaign's anti-gay strategy, comes out [with a brief comment about that by JON STEWART on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show"], while the U.K. coalition government's Prisons Minister Crispin Blunt leaves his wife of 20 years and also comes out... the Pentagon insultingly surveys spouses of military personnel in its year-long "study" of how to best implement repeal of "Don't Ask Don't Tell"... Nepalese activists and their allies celebrate progressive equality at Katmandu's first international LGBT Pride parade... the New York City Council tells marriage-minded same-gender couples where to go... and more LGBT news from around the world (written by GREG GORDON and reported this week by CHRISTOPHER GAAL and RICK WATTS).
  
- Where can you say "I'd like a salty pimp, please" in public? How about adding toppings like olive oil, sea salt, and wasabi pea dust to your soft serve? Where else but at New York City's BIG GAY ICE CREAM TRUCK? "This Way Out's" SHERI LUNN got the scoop from the truck's co-founder DOUG QUINT (with "Big Gay Ice Cream Song" performed by JANE WIEDLIN).
