Today's Health/Exercise Tip:The Benefits of Strength TrainingBy Jorge Cruise, Chief Diet and Fitness Expert; Oct 10, 2010Strength training may sound like an intense, hard-to-perform activity, but it's not. When using dumbbells, barbells and other load-bearing equipment, strength-training exercises will stress your muscles beyond what you may have done before – but they will do so safely and more effectively than any other workout.
After your first workout, your muscles may be more fatigued than they were after other exercise programs - and that's a good thing because it means you're creating new fat-burning lean muscle.
Besides its muscle-building benefits, strength training also boosts your body's health. A small study showed that whole-body resistance training can help reduce chronic lower back pain. Published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, the study found that men and women who engaged in resistance training for 16 weeks experienced a 60% improvement in pain and functioning. Meanwhile, those who engaged in aerobics training for 16 weeks experienced only a 12% improvement in lower back pain. Besides pain reduction, the people who strength trained also improved in muscle strength, endurance and flexibility, and lost 15% of their body fat.
It's a no-brainer: Strength training is the key to fitness and overall health!

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.
- NEW: Boycott Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations.

NYC Gay Pride; June 27, 2010
NBC NEW YORK / Oct 18, 2010A bartender at the city's oldest gay bar was attacked by a thug screaming hate speech -- the second bias attack this month inside a Manhattan gay bar and the latest in what is shaping up as troubling spate of anti-gay crimes in the region, police said today.
Police said a bartender at the Julius Bar, the city's oldest gay establishment, on West 10th Street was attacked by a man who screamed "What are you going to do, you f---ing n-----?" before punching him in the face.
The attack occurred on the evening of October 11, but Frederick Giunta, 45, wasn't arrested until Friday and he was charged in the assault on Saturday, according to authorities.
Moments before the shocking attack inside a West Village gay bar, Giunta punched another man in the face on Christopher Street and tried to take his wallet, according to court papers.
Giunta is charged with attempted robbery and third-degree assault as a hate crime, according to the Hate Crimes Unit in the office of Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance. This crime is the latest in a series of attacks against gay people in the region; Vance's office asked for anyone with information on this and other alleged hate crimes to come forward.
Giunta has history of targeting gay establishments for robberies, said Council Speaker Christine Quinn, who said "this vile attack will not be tolerated" and said she would meet with bar-owner to hear what kind of help the city can offer them.
"In an effort to address the number of attacks that have taken place at gay nightlife establishments, my office will be organizing a meeting tomorrow with bar owners, advocates and the NYPD," Quinn said in a statement. " We will seek to give information to bar owners about the best practices in responding to this kind of violence and ways to try and prevent attacks on our community.
Earlier this month, two Staten Island men were charged with attacking a patron at the Stonewall Inn, a powerful symbol of the gay rights movement. The attacks happened amid Carl Paladino's rants against gay people and the tragic suicide of Tyler Clementi, who threw himself off the George Washington Bridge after his Rutgers University roommate recorded him and another man having sex.
Also earlier this month, 11 teens were charged for anti-gay bias attack against two teens and one adult whom the attackers, wannabe gangsters, suspected of being gay, authorities said.
Mmbers of the gang, which calls itself the Latin King Goonies, targeted a 30-year-old gay man after he apparently had a sexual encounter with one of their recruits, authorities said.
The 17-year-old was beaten and sodomized until he confessed to his involvement with the older man, authorities said. The mob later went after the 30-year-old, luring him to an abandoned apartment they used for partying, where they tied him to a chair and assaulted him, police said.
Another 17-year-old was also attacked because it was believed he, too, had an encounter with the man. The older man's brother was also attacked after gang members went to their shared apartment and stole cash and a TV, police said.
"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."
Remember: Boycott Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations and to Proposition 8 (California) to prevent gay marriage. The Formal Boycott began this past weekend. I stopped shopping these stores - even though I want a new washer/dryer and new clothes for the Fall. I would not purchase "Blood Diamonds," nor should a person / organization be contributing funds to both Hitler / Nazi's and the Jews at the same time! Obviously giving money to the Jews and not Hitler/Nazi's is the right thing to do. Hence, these companies violated my trust and well-being. They gave money to my enemy who would terminate me from my job, deny me housing and send me to a Internment camp. Therefore, goodbye Target and Best Buy! The CEO's of these companies have been insensitive to our reaction and do not even comprehend their actions! What takes so long to "fire" these Neanderthals?
