Those in the know offer SAGE advice on elder issues;
Margaret Cho adds music to her comedy repertoire;
A record-breaking crowd turns out for Taipei Pride, religious Russians
protest the EuroCourt Moscow Pride ruling, a Kampala court quashes a
tabloid's outing spree, the U.S. military ban is in "Don't Stay Don't
Go" mode, an Israeli lesbian limbers up for TV dancing, and more news
  
- In "NewsWrap": At least 30,000 celebrants make this year's Pride march in Taipei, Taiwan the largest such event ever held in Asia, but about a thousand religious fundamentalists in Moscow protest the EuroCourt ruling that Russian cities must allow Pride events and other peaceful public demonstrations by LGBT people... a court in Kampala reportedly shuts down the tabloid that had twice published the names, photos and home addresses of "Uganda's Top Homos" with the banner headline "Hang Them!", while four human rights groups report that sexual minorities in Cameroon are increasingly being targeted by state-sanctioned abuse and violence... the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals extends its stay of an injunction that had ordered the end of Don't Ask Don't Tell enforcement... a massively-funded campaign by the homophobic National Organization for Marriage convinces Iowa voters to fire three state Supreme Court justices who were part of last year's unanimous ruling legalizing same-gender weddings... "out" lesbian sportscaster Gili Shem-Tov makes her own history by pairing with a heterosexual female partner on Israel's version of the popular TV competition "Dancing With The Stars"... and more LGBT news from around the world (written by GREG GORDON, and reported this week by MICHAEL LEBEAU and TANYA KANE-PARRY).
  
- Are you "Cho Dependent"? If you've been hungering for news from the raunchy, relevant, and now on-the-road comedian MARGARET CHO, she took a few minutes to catch up with "This Way Out" correspondent DIXIE TREICHEL [from "Fresh Fruit" on KFAI-FM in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota] (includes an excerpt from "Lice", featuring BEN LEE, one of the few okay-for-broadcast tracks on her new album) [www.margaretcho.com].
  
- Older LGBT adults from around the U.S. will be proclaiming, "The Future of Aging is in Our Hands" when they gather in New York City this week. The historic conference is being hosted by SAGE - Services and Advocacy for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgender Elders. One of SAGE's conference goals is to show people how to take an active role in planning public policy initiatives and tackling ageism within and outside the LGBT community. They'll also get personal, addressing the mental and physical challenges of aging. As our STEVE PRIDE discovered in conversation with the organization's Executive Director MICHAEL ADAMS, it's just the kind of work SAGE was born to do [www.sageusa.org].
