    Today's Health/Excercise Tip:
    Eat Fat to Lose Weight
     
    Fat has been given a bad rap over the years, but not all fat is bad for you. In fact, some fats are essential for weight loss! My all-time favorite source of healthy fat is flaxseed oil. It's the richest source of omega-3 fats, which are often deficient in the typical American diet. Your body uses omega-3s to maintain the integrity and function of your body's 75 trillion cell membranes, which in turn support healthy joints, shiny hair and strong nails, radiant skin, and your muscles' membranes. And because it's so widely used throughout your body, it almost never gets stored as body fat!

    And that's not all the good news: Flaxseed oil activates leptin, a hormone that helps suppress appetite and leaves you feeling full longer. If that weren't enough, flaxseed oil also activates a type of fat, called brown fat, that lies deep within your body and surrounds your vital organs. Leftover from the days when we needed to brave the elements with little clothing, brown fat burns calories for heat. When you activate your brown fat, you burn extra calories and boost your overall metabolism.

    Fresh flaxseed oil tastes great, so don't be afraid to sip a spoonful daily. Or, make homemade vinaigrette out of it and drizzle liberally on your salads. Yum!

    Tennessee Remedies Censorship of Gay Student
     
    Sunday, 25 April 2010 / SFGN

    The American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee and Lambda Legal has announced that they have received assurances from officials at Greenbrier High School that the school will stop censoring a student from wearing shirts expressing pro-gay messages.

    As part of a settlement, the school will also have to provide training on its anti-bullying policy to ensure that it is clear that harassment of any student, regardless of sexual orientation, is not acceptable, by either other students or faculty members.

    "Students not only have a First Amendment right to be out at school, but the right to an education free from discrimination and harassment," said Tricia Herzfeld, ACLU of Tennessee staff attorney. "We applaud the school for recognizing this and taking steps to ensure that they are providing a safe and equal learning environment for all students."

    The school's move was prompted by negotiations with the ACLU of Tennessee and Lambda Legal on behalf of Cole Goforth, a Greenbrier High School freshman, and his mother, Julie Gordon. The young man even got the support of Lady GaGa, who tweeted about the incident, defending Goforth on her Twitter page. Then the Advocate and gay press picked up the story as well.

    Goforth first contacted the ACLU of Tennessee and Lambda Legal after he was sent home from school on April 5 for wearing a T-shirt that said, "I [Love] Lady Gay Gay" and told by school officials that he could not even wear a T-shirt in support of marriage equality because doing so and, apparently, wearing any shirt with a pro-gay message on it, was inherently "disruptive. "

    Furthermore, Goforth had long been subjected to daily anti-gay harassment at school, including threats of physical violence. Goforth was not only unable to get relief from the school, he was told by school employees that he had "brought [harassment] on himself by coming out [as gay]."

    "Sending Cole home for wearing a shirt with the word `gay' on it not only trampled this student's right to freedom of expression, but also sent a destructive message to all students that there is something wrong with being gay or even saying the word `gay,'" said Lambda Legal attorney Beth Littrell.

    Lambda Legal and the ACLU of Tennessee claimed that attempting to use the harassment the student experienced at the hands of his peers as a justification for censoring his speech was illegal.
