Springtime Maintenance Tips for LGBT Homeowners 

By GayRealEstate.com

 

   

Whether someone already owns a home or plans to purchase one this spring during the busiest season for real estate sales, it is helpful to know some timely home maintenance tips. Doing routine home maintenance this time of year not only helps to preserve a valuable investment and improve home equity, but it can also contribute in both tangible and intangible ways to an enhanced quality of life. Living in a home that is well taken care of gives one invaluable peace of mind, and it also offers a special boost of esteem that comes from pride of ownership.

  

 

  

House & Senate Bills Aim to End Federal Marriage Discrimination

   

DOMA repeal bills filed in wake of new polling showing strong opposition to law

 

In the wake of new polling showing that Americans oppose the discriminatory Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), bills were filed in the House and Senate today to repeal DOMA and end federal discrimination against legally married same-sex couples.  The Respect for Marriage Act (RMA) was introduced in the House by Reps. Jerry Nadler, John Conyers, Barney Frank, Tammy Baldwin, Jared Polis and David Cicilline and for the first time in the Senate by Sens. Dianne Feinstein, Patrick Leahy and Kirstin Gillibrand.  Additionally Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer are sponsors of the House bill along with over 100 co-sponsors.

The nationwide poll, conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research and sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign, shows 51 percent of voters oppose DOMA while only 34 percent favor it.  Independent voters, who were instrumental in the Republican House takeover, oppose this law by a 52 percent to 34 percent margin.  More information is at www.hrc.org/DOMApoll2011.

Craig Van Den Brulle breaks the mold with his Delaunay

Collection

     

 

The Delaunay table sits glistening in the window of Craig Van Den Brulle's showroom, tempting the crowd walking by on Elizabeth Street. The custom made $75,000 table is part of a collection comprised of lamps, mirrors, and chairs, made using an extensive laser sintering process completed on a rapid prototyping machine. Making eye contact with the masterpiece can definitely be dangerous, luring in a customer with a hefty appetite for the finer things in life. The wall-to-wall masterfully curated pieces transform one into a kid in a very expensive candy store.
