Today's Health - Wellness / Exercise / Reflections:Which Soda Is Healthiest?Sometimes the craving for a sweet, bubbly drink can't be ignored. Here's the problem: Soda is loaded with sugar. Many popular sodas contain 39 grams of sugar per can that's about 10 teaspoons! Instead of drinking this energy-crashing, belly-fat promoting soda, try one of my favorite discoveries: Zevia.
It has zero sugar because it's sweetened with stevia, a herb that originated in South America. Stevia contains no calories and will not cause blood-sugar spikes. It is much sweeter than sugar, which means you only need to use a little to get the right amount of sweetness. Research has shown that stevia may reduce hypertension and blood pressure. It can even reduce blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. So give it a try!

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 the home of senile - Sen. John McCain: because of their Hateful anti-Immigration Law that encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform. Further, Their Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and blocked Immigration reform! We shall hold the voters of Arizona responsible!
- NEW: Boycott Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations.
- NEW: Boycott Gold's Gym for donating loads of money to anti-gay candidates.

NYC Gay Pride; June 27, 2010
NPR; Oct 22, 2010; by Claire O'NeillFederal law restricts openly gay men and women from serving in the Army; in effect, that means that gay men and women who join the military are required to hide their sexuality. And yet photographer Jeff Sheng has had no problem getting them to talk. In fact, his latest photo project, Don't Ask, Don't Tell, came about somewhat organically, after several gay military personnel had contacted him.
"I first began the series," he writes in an e-mail, "when service members who were closeted saw my earlier series, Fearless, on 'out' LGBT high school and college athletes that I started in 2003." He began receiving unsolicited stories through e-mail, and it wasn't long before Don't Ask, Don't Tell was in the making. Although Sheng does not reveal his subjects' identities, his portraits still reveal their struggle.
He has taken about 60 portraits in 25 states, and the project has garnered a fair bit of attention. It was recently on display at Kaycee Olsen Gallery in Los Angeles and at the Human Rights Campaign during FotoWeek DC in Washington. Sheng elaborates in an exhibition news release that the theme of invisibility is a broader one that applies to the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan:
"While it certainly applied to their sexuality," the news release reads, "I discovered more levels of significance as almost all of these service members had fought in the two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last decade. The invisibility of these wars, as well as our lack of recognition toward everyone in the military and their efforts, became a powerful inspiration for the work and an added metaphor within the title, Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
"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."
URGENT: Boycott Gold's Gym, Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations and to Proposition 8 (California) to prevent gay marriage. 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 was 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 Gold's Gym, 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?
