Community Leaders Band together to improve Oxford St
On Monday night, a bunch of community leaders met to discuss the future of Sydney's Oxford Steet and ways how it could be restamped as a gay and lesbian village.
Around the table were representatives from Same Same, ACON, the Gay and Lesbian Rights Lobby, Arq, Fag Tag, the Imperial Hotel, Dykes on Bikes, Sydney Star Observer, SX and Timeout magazine. For almost three hours the group, now known as Out On The Strip, discussed a myriad of strategies on how we can all make a huge difference by banding together.
Out On The Strip is now seeking expressions of interest from community groups who want to get involved by hosting an event on the strip in 2008.
This is exactly what our community neads in Sydney, I would love to see more colour and more events in the heart. The strip has suffered with shops closing and alcoholics sleeping on the footpath. Lets clean it up and make it ours... ps make the whole outside area a dry area close the st8 clubs.
Out On The Strip are also after some ideas so If you have any ideas please don't be shy and I'll pass them on.

First Five Star Gay Hotel Opens
The capital of Argentina, home to cowboy culture and the brutally macho tango dance, has just thrown open the doors to Latin America's glossy first five-star hotel for gays.
With more than 12 million people, cosmopolitan Buenos Aires has gradually become more and more gay-friendly, with bars, restaurants, guest houses and now a five-star hotel meant for us.
Experts estimate that a hefty 20 percent of tourists who visit Buenos Aires are gay. That means 300,000 gay visitors a year who spend 600 million dollars in the city, according to industry figures.
The Axel is looking to cash in on the potentially big and lucrative market niche.

Diversity Conference for Emergency Services
I have just returned from a conference on Diversity in Emergency Services held in Melbourne, Australia, with guest speakers coming from the United States and the United Kingdom.
I must say the most enjoyable speech was by the Chief Commissioner of the Victorian Police Force -Christine Nixon, her life experiences within the service were both tragic and yet inspiring.
Most of the topics were based around the the importance of increasing the number of females in the fire services around the world.
Disappointingly the importance of glbt community was hardly discussed during the 3 day conference.
Sadly many of the glbt remain in the closet so they "fit in" the male dominated macho environment that the fire service is.
Don't we all have the right in the workplace to be ourselves..I ask you?
The best decision I made when I arrived to Sydney for my exchange was to be out and honest from day one.

2nd Pride Parade in Osaka
Over 1300 people participated in the 2nd annual Kansai Rainbow Parade in Osaka on Sunday.
Osaka mayor Junichi Seki declared Osaka the human rights capital of Japan in a speech read for him by transgender organising committee member Mie.
Organising committee member Asami Ota said onlookers were bemused by the spectacle of the parade going down Midosuji-dori to announcements of ‘we are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, straight; we are ourselves.’
This was the first year an after party had been held, the party, at Explosion nightclub in Doyama, featured local and international DJs and drag queens from the parade.

The world's largest passenger jumbo jet - the Airbus A380 - has landed in Sydney after its first commercial flight from Singapore.
The massive aircraft touched down at Sydney Airport at 5.24pm (AEST) after leaving Singapore at 10.16am.
More than 100 members of domestic and international media were taken by bus to the 4km-long runway to record the historical event.
Sydney Airport personnel in utilities, equipped with loudspeakers, broadcast audio from the airport control tower, where traffic controllers referred to the plane as "the big fella''.
Passengers aboard tdoay's flight include 38-year-old Sydney resident Julian Hayward who paid $US100,000 ($111,000) for a first class seat and American Thomas Lee, who was also aboard the inaugural Boeing 747 flight in 1970.
A regular A380 service between Singapore and Sydney will begin on Sunday.
