Feldman's "Amazon" reborn with new flavors;
Pride midwife Clare Dimyon's MBE;
Marriage equality miscarries in Maryland, Pelosi tells Boehner to  
"show her the money," Sydney's Mardi Gras, Moldova's fears, and more  
global LGBT news

- In "NewsWrap": Maryland's House of Delegates fails to come up with  
the votes to pass the marriage equality bill approved by the state  
Senate, so it goes back to committee and won't be heard of again  
until next year; U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi challenges  
Speaker John Boehner to "show her the money" that will pay private  
attorneys to defend DOMA on behalf of Congress; Sydney's Gay and  
Lesbian Mardi Gras draws hordes of spectators cheering hundreds of  
prospective "brides" and "grooms"; human rights activists in Moldova  
are alarmed by the presence of one of the same U.S. evangelicals who  
fanned the flames of homophobia in Uganda; the courts won't let a  
British couple be foster parents because of their anti-gay views, so  
they think they may have better luck in Parliament; bullying gets the  
spotlight in the Beltway, with a White House Conference on the  
problem and a slew of bills to address it; Target's politics make  
Lada Gaga gag-gag... and more LGBT news from around the world  
(written by LUCIA CHAPPELLE and reported this week by MICHAEL LEBEAU  
and TANYA KANE-PARRY).

- In 1976 the late lesbian folk singer MAXINE FELDMAN wrote a song  
that would become an early anthem for the Women’s Music Movement. Now  
a group of artists have created "Amazon 35," a CD with new versions  
of the song. J.D. DOYLE recalls his 2002 interview with Feldman and  
talks with JUDITH CASSELBERRY about the commemorative project.

- CLARE DIMYON is a British activist who started going to various  
Pride events in eastern Europe in 2007, and helping to initiate  
Prides where there were none. She was recently awarded an MBE for her  
efforts. ROSIE WILBY talked with Dimyon about getting the honor and  
about her adventures on the road.

- The women of the Executive Board of the European region of the  
International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association  
posted a special ILGA-EUROPE message for the 100th International  
Women's Day, March 8th.
