assaulted because
they were perceived as gay. About 13 percent of lesbians said the
same.A separate study of young people in England also found that, in
their teens, gay boys and lesbians were almost twice as likely to
be bullied as their straight peers. By young adulthood, it was about
the same for lesbians and straight girls. But in this study, published
recently in the journal Pediatrics, gay young men were almost four times
more likely than their straight peers to be bullied.At least one historian
says it wasn't always that way for either men or women, whose
"expressions of love" with friends of the same gender were seen as
a norm even idealized in the
19th century."These relationships offered ample opportunity for those who
would have wanted to act on it physically, even if most did
not," says Thomas Foster, associate professor and head of the history department
at DePaul University in Chicago.Today's "code of male gendered behavior,"
he says, often rejects these kinds of expressions between men.We joke about
the "bro-mance" a term used to describe close friendships
between straight men. But in some sense, the humor stems from the
insinuation that those relationships could be romantic, though everyone
assumes they aren't.Call those friends "gay," a word that's still commonly
used as an insult, and that's quite another thing. Consider the furor
over Rutgers University men's basketball coach Mike Rice, who was recently
d others that Russian officials contacted the U.S. government
at least twice in 2011 with concerns about Tsarnaev, the Chechen who
two years later would carry out last week's deadly bombing of the
Boston Marathon, as an example of an instance that merits further investigation."In
a string of apparent intelligence-sharing lapses, Tamerlan Tsarnaev was
able to slip through the cracks and carry out this devastating attack,"
the senators said.Authorities suspect Tsarnaev, 26, and his younger brother,
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, of using improvised explosives to kill and maim runners
and spectators near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Three people
were killed and more than 200 injured in the April 15 attack.Tamerlan
Tsarnaev was killed days later in a shootout with police. His 19-year-old
brother escaped but was captured alive Friday night and now faces a
charge of use of a weapon of mass destruction that could carry
the death penalty.The brothers immigrated to the United States about a decade
ago with their family. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev became a U.S. citizen last year,
but Tamerlan had not yet earned citizenship.Senators, after being briefed
on the case Tuesday, said the U.S. government had "multiple contacts" with
Russia about the older Boston bombing suspect, but those lawmakers wouldn't
offer any more details.Fox News was told the FBI tried to determine
if Tsarnaev had any ties to terrorism, but those efforts apparently proved
inconclusive."W

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">Frustrated at being left out of an immigration overhaul, gay rights groups
are pushing to adjust a bipartisan Senate bill to include gay couples.
But Democrats are treading carefully, wary of adding another divisive issue
that could lose Republican support and jeopardize the entire bill.Both parties
want the bill to succeed. Merely getting to agreement on the basic
framework for the immigration overhaul, which would create a long and costly
path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million people in the U.S.
illegally, was no small feat for senators. And getting it through a
divided Congress is still far from a done deal.Even so, gay rights
groups, their lobbyists and grass-roots supporters are insisting the deal
shouldn't exclude bi-national, same-sex couples -- about 28,500 of them,
according to a 2011 study from the Williams Institute at UCLA Law.
They're ramping up a campaign to change the bill to allow gay
Americans to sponsor their partners for green cards, the same way straight
Americans can. Supporters trekked to the Capitol to make their case at
senators' offices on Wednesday."Opponents will be proposing amendments that,
if passed, could collapse this very fragile coalition that we've been able
to achieve," Sen. John McCain, an Arizona Republican, said last week at
the unveiling of the bill. He said the eight senators from both
parties who crafted the legislation are committed to voting against changes
that could kill it.For Dem
House Republicans will take on the immigration issue in bite-size pieces,
shunning pressure to act quickly and rejecting the comprehensive approach
embraced in the Senate, a key committee chairman said Thursday.House Judiciary
Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., declined to commit to finishing
immigration legislation this year, as President Obama and a bipartisan group
in the Senate want to do. He said bills on an agriculture
worker program and workplace enforcement would come first, and he said there'd
been no decision on how to deal with legalization or a possible
path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million immigrants living here
illegally, a centerpiece of a new bipartisan bill in the Senate."It is
not whether you do it fast or slow, it is that you
get it right that's most important," Goodlatte said at a press conference
to announce the way forward on immigration in the House.He said that
while he hopes to produce a bill this year, "I'm going to
be very cautious about setting any kind of arbitrary limits on when
this has to be done."The approach Goodlatte sketched out was not a
surprise, but it was a sign of the obstacles ahead of congressional
passage of the kind of far-reaching immigration legislation sought by Obama
and introduced last week in the Senate by four Republican and four
Democratic lawmakers. Many in the conservative-led House don't have the
appetite for a single, big bill on immigration, especially not one th
