The Red Tie Affair is a silent auction event to help raise needed funds benefiting the Teddy Bear Touchdowns of Dab the AIDS Bear Project. The Teddy Bear Touchdowns provide children affected by HIV/AIDS with holiday gifts during the Christmas season. Learn more about Dab the AIDS Bear Project at www.dabtheaidsbearproject.com
"Our Teddy Bear Touchdowns are holiday events for children with HIV and AIDS in several cities throughout the United States.
The holiday season is a special time for all children. But our wonderful kids come from financially challenged families dealing with the additional financial strains of high medical costs. Without your help many of these children would not have a gift this holiday season
We are looking for businesses, organizations, churches, groups and our fellow Americans to donate new teddy bears and other gifts to be given during the upcoming holiday season to children affected and effected with HIV and AIDS." Dab Garner, Daddy Dab

Lament, True Believers...
For the Mighty Marvel House of Ideas has been consumed by a planet devourer that Galactus would be hard-pressed to keep up with: Disney.
It remains to be seen how this change will effect Marvel's output, but one worries that the merger might hinder the comic giant's creativity, leaving us with dumbed-down two dimensional children's stories.
We can only hope that, as both companies have stated, Disney will actually keep their fingers out of Marvel's day to day operations and let them keeping creating the great stories we've been reading for the past few years.
And as far as the movie side of things go... well, so long as Miley Cyrus and Whatever-Their-Names-Are Jonas aren't going to start taking on leading roles as our favorite spandex-clad heroes, then this could actually be a good thing. Sure, Disney fails from time to time, but no one can deny that they hit it out of the park just as often, (the first years of Miramax, anyone?) and if Marvel really will get to maintain creative control and make movies the way they've been making them these past few years, then yippee for a huge new weapon in their arsenal.
So, we'll keep an eye out and hope that the House of Mouse doesn't bring down the House of Ideas like a ...house of cards?
Excelsior, indeed.

National Freedom to Marry Day
On National Freedom to Marry Day, Thursday, February 12, 2009, at local marriage counters in cities all over the country, same-sex couples will request marriage licenses at their local County Clerk’s Offices to raise awareness of the harms and impact the inability to marry causes on their families.
Since 2001, Marriage Equality USA® chapters have engaged in these annual marriage counter actions to render visible the discrimination that is enforced every day. It is an affront to our basic dignity as fellow human beings when same-sex couples are turned away from the marriage counter, but it gives us the opportunity to tell our stories and show that we live in every community and want to honor and protect our families like everyone else. Everyone who supports marriage equality is welcomed to attend and support this event. Get Engaged for Marriage Equality!
Same-sex couples who wish to marry and all who support them are invited to attend!

Duval County Courthouse - Downtown

Please pass this on to every marriage equality supporter you know and ask them to pass it along. We have power in numbers and your support in this way will help get the message out and the attendance we need.
