Today's Health - Wellness/ Exercise / Reflections:Flaxseeds for Better HealthFlaxseeds are not new; people have eaten flax seeds since ancient times. It's a blue flowering crop that is grown for its oil-rich seeds. The seeds are tiny, flat and smooth, and range in color from light to reddish brown.
Flaxseeds have a mild nutty flavor and they're often sprinkled over salads, hot dishes like cooked cereal, and even stir-fry. The seed can also be sprouted and used in salads and sandwiches. One tablespoon of ground flaxseed has 36 calories, 1.8 grams of omega-3 fats and 2.2 grams of fiber. In contrast, half a teaspoon of flaxseed oil has 40 calories and no fiber.
The tiny seeds contain several essential nutrients including calcium, iron, niacin, phosphorous and vitamin E. It's also a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseeds can be found in some supermarkets and health food stores. Store the seeds in the refrigerator or freezer for up to 6 months.
Everyone needs fat in their diet, but the suggested amounts depend on what you read. Both the quantity and the quality of dietary fat intake determine the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and some cancers. Fats also provide flavor, make you feel full and most importantly help in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.
There are plenty of ways to add ground flaxseed into your diet: Sprinkle them on salads, soups and hot cereals, or try mixing ground flaxseeds into dough and batters like pancakes, muffins, and even cookies. (When baking, observe the baking time since foods made with flax may brown more quickly.)
As with all fiber, increase the amounts gradually to avoid any stomach discomfort.

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 Gold's Gym, Target and Best Buy for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations.

London Gay Pride; July 3, 2010
Sam Stein; Huffington Post; 11/24, 2010WASHINGTON -- The stage has been formally set for the final, theatrical hearing over whether or not Congress will repeal the military's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy this year or even next year.
On Wednesday, Senator Carl Levin (D-Mich), chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, announced that he will hold two days of hearings on the policy that restricts gays from serving openly in the armed forces. The hearings will come just days after a year-long report, commissioned by the Pentagon, will be released reportedly showing that DADT repeal would have a minimal impact on the temperament or readiness of fellow soldiers.
On Thursday, December 2, supporters of DADT repeal will be granted the first shot to make their case. Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates; Admiral Michael G. Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; Jeh C. Johnson, the Department of Defense's General Counsel and co-chair of the Pentagon's DADT Comprehensive Review Working Group; and General Carter F. Ham, commander of the United States Army in Europe and the second co-chair of the Comprehensive Review Working Group will all deliver testimony.
They will be followed on Friday by a day of testimony from those generally skeptical of appeal, including General James E. Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; General George W. Casey, Jr., chief of staff of the Army; Admiral Gary Roughead, chief of Naval Operations; General James F. Amos, commandant of the Marine Corps; and General Norton A. Schwartz, chief of staff of the Air Force.
All told, it should be a dramatic two days of hearings and questioning, with particular attention being paid to those members of the Senate Armed Services Committee whose position on the policy is either vague (Sen. Susan Collins chief among them) or who've twisted themselves into pretzels attempting to hold up repeal (Sen. John McCain).
The betting money is that people will remain entrenched or even emboldened in their positions even after the hearings conclude. But what comes out of the Pentagon study and the subsequent testimony could give Democratic leadership the type of breathing room they need to keep DADT repeal inside the Defense Authorization Bill and, in turn, structure the debate so that Republicans no longer feel they can vote against it on procedural grounds.
"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?
