    Today's Health/Excercise Tip:
    Food Prep Made Simple
     
    Not everyone wants to be the next celebrity chef. But if you want to take control of your calorie intake, nothing beats a home-cooked meal. When you cook at home, you know exactly what goes into the food you make. Eating out or picking up take-out leaves you vulnerable to hundreds of hidden calories â€" not to mention the strain on your wallet. So make eating at home a priority.

    If you're worried about the amount of time it takes to prepare meals, streamline your food prep. Preparing and packing meals ahead of time requires a lot of slicing, dicing and chopping. Think about investing in some appliances that will save you time, such as a food processor, blender, garlic press, apple slicer, and so on. These kitchen tools will earn their keep once you discover the health benefits of preparing your own meals â€" and perhaps even the joy of cooking!

    Pawlenty Paving Road to White House at the Expense of the Gay Community
    Alvin McEwen / Huffington Post /  May 15, 2010

    Arguably the one who will probably try to make a good shot at President Obama in the 2012 elections is Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty.

    And if this the case, lgbts better start thinking about our next move. For good reason, we have been giving Obama hell for not moving as swiftly as he should on our issues. But if Pawlenty gets in office, we are going to be moving in the other direction big time as evidenced by his recent veto threat of a pro-lgbt end-of-life bill :

    Gov. Tim Pawlenty said Wednesday that he would veto a bill aimed at giving same-sex partners the same end-of-life rights as married couples, saying the bill was unnecessary and would "stoke up a political controversy on a hot-button issue."

    Supporters balked at the governor's rationale, saying his suggestion that same-sex couples could achieve the same rights through a will still leaves gays on unequal footing with their heterosexual counterparts -- married couples have those rights without a will.

    . . . The new bill gives same-sex partners the right to make decisions about how to dispose of a deceased partner's body -- something gay couples say is needed because some gays and lesbians are estranged from their immediate families. The bill passed the House and Senate this week and also gives surviving partners the right to sue those responsible should their partner be killed.

    Now come on, Pawlenty. Are you saying that lgbt couples should have to jump through extra hoops for end-of-life dignity instead of you just signing the bill that the Minnesota legislature passed?  There is nothing to be gained from such a nasty gesture.

    Then again, I take that back. Pawlenty's veto threat is in line with his comments last year when he backtracked from pro-lgbt legislation he earlier signed. His explanation then was even more insulting than his about-face. Pawlenty claimed that the legislation could lead to cross-dressing third grade teachers:

    That statute is not worded the way it should be. I said I regretted the vote later because it included things like cross-dressing, and a variety of other people involved in behaviors that weren't based on sexual orientation, just a preference for the way they dressed and behaved. So it was overly broad. So if you are a third-grade teacher and you are a man and you show up on Monday as Mr. Johnson and you show up on Tuesday as Mrs. Johnson, that is a little confusing to the kids. So I don't like that.

    That ridiculous comment last year and the veto threat this year makes it all clear. Pawlenty is trying to build a road to the White House by proving to the conservative base of the Republican Party that he doesn't support gay rights.

    I cringe to think of what he is going to do next. Perhaps a public statement about how he isn't "pro-sodomy? "

    Sorry Pawlenty, but  Mike Huckabee has you beat on that one.
