Consider joining:

Take Action:

  • Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck on Fox News as well as all of FOX NEWS!  Glenn has lied about Health-care, called our President a racist, and is anti-gay rights.
  • We demand immediate end of DADT. It is out-right discrimination.
  • Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers.  Bill discussed a French commerical by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to get be Al-Qaida friendly as well?  Further, Bill said that McDonalds would never show a gay friendly commercial in the USA.   Imagine,  Bill is comparing Gays to Al-Qaida.
  • Boycott Arizona because of their uncivilized anti-Immigration Law that encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities.  A remedy: Demand Republicans to  support Immigration Reform.   

Diet & Fitness:

  • Did you complete your Diet Journal today?  Get it done!
  • Did you do any physical activity?  If not, make a point of it by tomorrow! 
  • It is our hope that these photos shall inspire you!

Today's Health/Excercise Tip:
Healthy Meals 'Revolve' Around Good Planning
 
The trick to eating healthy is to plan ahead, plain and simple. One of my tricks is to have a rotating menu system that you use either weekly or monthly. For example, you would sit down and plan out 30 days worth of meals, snacks and treats at one time and then just reuse the same plan each month. This is also a great way to ensure you're eating a balanced diet.

Start by planning out one week of dinners, and be sure to include a variety of healthful foods. On Sunday you might have barbecued chicken, on Monday a veggie casserole, on Tuesday grilled fish, on Wednesday lean pork or beef, etc.

If you have more than seven meal ideas, keep planning out the weeks until you run out of ideas. If you have enough recipes for a full month, rotate your plan monthly. For example, you'll eat the same meals on August 15 as you did on July 15. Post your menu calendar on your fridge, and refer to it before you go grocery shopping. And don't forget to make sure your pantry is packed with the basics. You'll save hours trying to brainstorm new meal combinations.
And Now, Hair Wars!

BUENOS AIRES --- Argentina's Senate narrowly approved a law early on Thursday authorizing same-sex marriage, making Argentina the first country in Latin America to allow gay couples to wed.

After 15 hours of debate, the Senate voted 33 to 27 in favor of the measure, which was sponsored by the government of President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.  For weeks, she waged a bitter war of words with the Roman Catholic Church over the measure, saying that it would be a "terrible distortion of democracy" to deny gay rights and that religious leaders needed to recognize how socially liberal the nation had become.

In its race to derail the change, the church had organized large protests throughout the country involving tens of thousands of opponents of the law, with Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio, the archbishop of Buenos Aires, declaring it a "destructive attack on God's plan."

Portugal and Iceland also legalized gay marriage this year, adding to the small but steadily expanding list of nations, most of them in Europe, to do so.

But in a region where the separation of church and state is not always so clear, the law demonstrated a rare but increasing willingness by some Latin American nations to confront the church on fundamental issues, like Chile's legalization of divorce and Brazil's public distribution of contraceptives in recent years.

"There is no question that the law is unusual for a country that is non-secular," or a least not secular "in the way that Western European democracies are," Javier Corrales, a political science professor at Amherst College, said of Argentina's same-sex marriage measure. "There's a clear conflict with the church. Very seldom do we see presidents willing to fight the church so strongly on this particular issue."

Argentina's new law will give gay people the same marital rights as heterosexuals, including adoption and inheritance rights, and reflects the broadening legal recognition of same-sex relationships across Latin American.

Mexico City became the first jurisdiction in the region to legalize gay marriages last year. At least two other countries Latin America, Uruguay and Colombia, allow civil unions for same-sex couples.

But the trend is not universal. Honduras banned same-sex couples from marrying or adopting children in 2005, and refused to recognize same-sex marriages from other countries. The anti-gay atmosphere in Honduras is so intense, according to human rights groups, that more than 20 gay and transgender people have been killed there in the last five years.

"How wonderful for them," Oscar Amador, a spokesman for Violet Collective, a gay rights group in Tegucigalpa, the Honduran capital, said of Argentina's gay and lesbian couples. "This inspires us to fight even more. Maybe one day we'll have the same."

"Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."
