Moderator: I wrote what I think in the "Take action" section. Further, as you probably read by now from member postings and my posting of article today, Apple removed the app in the USA. It is unclear about removal of the app in other countries. If the app is not removed world-wide, than Apple is still pupporting Hate. What do I think? I think Apple has destroyed its reputation. The customers that buy Apple are the educated -progressive - elite and they are not Tea Party idiots (bigots). ....Jake

7 Tasty Low-Salt Recipes
Cutting back on salt? You don't have to give up flavor too. It's World Salt Awareness Week, a perfect time to try these 7 delicious dishes that have less than 400 mg of sodium per serving...
Pan-Roasted Chicken & Gravy
A cast-iron skillet is the perfect vessel for a simple roast chicken. Almost every side dish – vegetables, legumes, pasta or rice – goes well with it.
Serves: 6
Preparation time: 1-1/4 hours
Ingredients
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1-1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
3-1/2-pound chicken, giblets removed
1 teaspoon peanut or canola oil
2 teaspoons butter, softened, divided
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Mash garlic and salt into a paste in a small bowl, using the back of a spoon. Stir in pepper and thyme.
3. With a sharp knife, remove any excess fat from chicken. Dry the inside with a paper towel. With your fingers, loosen the skin over the breasts and thighs to make pockets, being careful not to tear the skin. Rub garlic mixture over breast and thigh meat.
4. Heat oil and 1 teaspoon butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook, turning often, until nicely browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.
5. Transfer pan to oven and roast chicken until the internal temperature in the thickest part of thigh reaches 165°F, 50 minutes-1 hour. Transfer chicken to a clean cutting board; tent with foil.
6. Meanwhile, mash remaining 1 teaspoon butter and flour in a small bowl until a paste forms. Place pan (use caution, the handle will be hot) over medium-high heat. Add broth and bring to a simmer, stirring to scrape up any browned bits. Gradually whisk in butter-flour paste a few bits at a time until gravy thickens, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes, allowing any fat to rise to the top. Skim off the fat with a spoon.
7. Carve chicken and serve with gravy. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
Enjoy!

Ham & Swiss Rösti
Rösti is a traditional Swiss potato pancake typically served as a side dish. Here, we add ham and cheese to transform it into an easy weeknight supper.
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
1 large egg
1 cup diced ham (about 5 ounces)
1 cup shredded part-skim Jarlsberg or Swiss cheese, divided
1 shallot, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Preparation
1. Beat egg in a large bowl. Stir in ham, 1/2 cup cheese, shallot, rosemary, pepper and salt. Add frozen potatoes and stir to combine.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pat potato mixture into an even round in pan. Cover and cook until browned and crispy on the bottom, 4-6 minutes.
3. Remove pan from the heat. Place a rimless baking sheet on top. Wearing oven mitts, grasp pan and baking sheet together and carefully invert, unmolding the rösti onto the baking sheet. Wipe out any browned bits from pan.
4. Return it to heat and add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Slide the rösti back into the pan. Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheese, cover and cook the second side until crispy and browned, 4-6 minutes. Slide onto a platter, cut into wedges and serve.

The flavors of asparagus and pesto combine beautifully with fettuccine and shrimp in a light, simple pasta dish that works for family or casual entertaining.
Serves: 6
Preparation time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
8 ounces whole-wheat fettuccine
1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)

1/4 cup prepared pesto
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound raw shrimp (21-25 per pound), peeled and deveined
1 cup dry white wine
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Preparation
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook for 3 minutes less than the package directions. Add asparagus and continue cooking until pasta and asparagus are just tender, about 3 minutes more. Reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water, drain fettuccine and asparagus and return to pot. Stir in peppers and pesto. Cover to keep warm.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 3 minutes. Add wine, increase heat to high and continue cooking until shrimp are curled and wine is reduced, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp to pasta, toss to coat, and add reserved cooking water. Season with pepper and serve immediately.

Quinoa & Smoked Tofu Salad
We took the tangy fresh flavors of tabbouleh and paired them with smoky tofu and quinoa to create a main course salad. Quinoa is a delicately flavored, protein-rich grain. You can find it in natural-foods stores and natural-foods sections of many supermarkets. Rinsing removes any residue of saponin, quinoa's natural, bitter protective covering.
Serves: 6
Preparation time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
2 cups water
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 cup quinoa, rinsed well
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 small cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 6- or 8-ounce package baked smoked tofu, diced
1 small yellow bell pepper, diced
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup diced cucumber
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint
Preparation
1. Bring water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add rinsed quinoa and return to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until water has been absorbed, 15-20 minutes. Spread quinoa on a baking sheet to cool for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, oil, garlic, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add cooled quinoa, tofu, bell pepper, tomatoes, cucumber, parsley and mint; toss well to combine.

Take Action:
Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck - Fox News. Glenn Beck is anti-gay rights.
Update: DADT has been repealed. President Obama has kept his promise!
Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers. Bill discussed a French commercial by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to be Al-Qaida friendly as well? Imagine - Bill O'Reilly compares Gays to Al-Qaida!
Boycott Arizona the home of "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform!
Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians.
End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.
Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act). ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of LGBT workforce.
Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."
BOYCOTT "Chick-fil-a" for donating to anti-gay marriage groups.
BOYCOTT KOCH INDUSTRIES PRODUCTS- to include their products: Angel Soft toilet paper / Brawny paper towels / Dixie plates, bowls, napkins & cups / Mardi Gras napkins and towels / Quilted Northern toilet paper / Soft 'n Gentle toilet paper / Sparkle napkins / Vanity fair napkins / Zee napkins / Georgia-Pacific paper products & envelopes / All Georgia-Pacific lumber & building products (INVISTA Products) / Lycra / Stainmaster Carpet. The billionaire - Koch brothers are ultra republican - tea bag founders/supporters that do not support causes of the LGBT community.
Boycott WALMART - The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, force criticized Wal-Mart for denying employee benefits to same-s-x partners and for failing to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. By comparison, the group said two other chain stores with a strong presence in New York, Costco and Walgreens, did much better.
Remember David Kato, Gay activist - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay!
NEW: Boycott Donald Trump, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and his other business's. Don't shop at any bulklding with Donald Trump's name! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred. Remember how poorly he treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is hater. Unforgiveable! Ready to dump NBC because they air Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"? Start Watching CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.
NEW: Boycott "APPLE." For the current owners and the aspiring owners of the I-phone, Apple allows an application, "The Gay App", which is supposed to help gay individuals turn straight. This is a step in the wrong direction.
Apple needs to know that the decision to allow this App on their products is a fallacious idea! Update: March 23, 2011: It is rumored that Apple removed this app from USA stores; but, not from foreign stores. This is offensive not just towards the LGBT community in the USA; but, offensive to the entire LGBT community around the world. How does anyone approve such a hateful, despicable app towards th LGBT community? Especially when Gay Teens are killing themselves after being harrassed by their church, parents, as well as bully's and teachers at school. The idea that this app was used, solicited is disgusting.
Remember David Kato, Gay activist - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay!
NEW: Boycott Donald Trump, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and his other business's. Don't shop at any bulklding with Donald Trump's name! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred. Remember how poorly he treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is hater. Unforgiveable! Ready to dump NBC because they air Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"? Start Watching CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.
NEW: Boycott "APPLE." For the current owners and the aspiring owners of the I-phone, Apple allows an application, "The Gay App", which is supposed to help gay individuals turn straight. This is a step in the wrong direction.
Apple needs to know that the decision to allow this App on their products is a fallacious idea! Update: March 23, 2011: It is rumored that Apple removed this app from USA stores; but, not from foreign stores. This is offensive not just towards the LGBT community in the USA; but, offensive to the entire LGBT community around the world. How does anyone approve such a hateful, despicable app towards th LGBT community? Especially when Gay Teens are killing themselves after being harrassed by their church, parents, as well as bully's and teachers at school. The idea that this app was used, solicited is disgusting.
And Now, Our War of the Fittest!

Apple Boots 'Gay Cure' App. A Pyrrhic Victory for Gay Rights?
Mar. 23 2011 / Forbes / Jeff Bercovici
Supporters of gay rights are celebrating a successful effort to pressure Apple into removing from its store a controversial app created by a group that works to "free" gay people of their sexual orientation. After more than 140,000 people signed a petition at Change. org calling for the app, created by Exodus International, to be removed, Apple bowed to the wisdom of the crowd. A spokesman told the New York Daily News the petition proved the app was "offensive to large groups of people," something its developer guidelines prohibit.
In other words, something is objectionable if enough people object to it. If that's going to be the standard, Apple is going to be seeing a lot more petitions. You can be sure the religious conservatives who found themselves on the losing end of this culture-war skirmish have been taking notes, and are already at work drawing up a list of all the gay-themed apps in the app store that are offensive to their beliefs. What will Apple say the day it gets a petition with 140,001 signatures calling for banning Grindr, an app popular with gay men looking for a quick hit of romance?
It wasn't long ago at all that Apple was drawing raspberries from the gay rights crowd for denying approval to a graphic novel because it contained images of men kissing each other in a state of undress. You'd think that episode might have left them with a lasting distaste for censorship. Their support for it now is bafflingly short-sighted.

Important Notice: Our ObamaBiden2008 Group works hand - in - hand with Peckers PICS (Both groups were co-created to work with each-other). To prevent duplication of articles and questions, all members of this group are expected to join ObamaBiden2008. It is unfair for members that belong to both groups to hear members of just Peckers PICS (only) to make statements when the ObamaBiden2008 has covered such topics in detail. Therefore, members need to join ObamaBiden2008 immediately. This shall clear up communications and confusion. The LGBT cause is too important and beyond 1 person's need to just look at pictures. Therefore, please join ObamaBiden2008 now. No you don't have to read every article! But, it covers the LGBT community and includes updates on Health insurance; LGBT boycott list; Westboro Church; and the end of DADT, etc...Also, updates with the multi state gov't's war against unions and people with disabilities. The group is created for you! There are gay teen suicides going on. There are Hate crimes against gay people. There are gays who are fired over their sexual identity. There are gay people who died for our cause! You always reserve the right to remove yourself from all my groups if you do not appreciate this request. I have done everything I can and now it is time for you to step up! My Groups are for Yahoo members who sincerely care about LGBT rights and Gay Mens Health! Please Join Now!
Boycott Arizona the home of "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform!
Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians.
End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.
Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act). ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of LGBT workforce.
Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."
BOYCOTT "Chick-fil-a" for donating to anti-gay marriage groups.
BOYCOTT KOCH INDUSTRIES PRODUCTS- to include their products: Angel Soft toilet paper / Brawny paper towels / Dixie plates, bowls, napkins & cups / Mardi Gras napkins and towels / Quilted Northern toilet paper / Soft 'n Gentle toilet paper / Sparkle napkins / Vanity fair napkins / Zee napkins / Georgia-Pacific paper products & envelopes / All Georgia-Pacific lumber & building products (INVISTA Products) / Lycra / Stainmaster Carpet. The billionaire - Koch brothers are ultra republican - tea bag founders/supporters that do not support causes of the LGBT community.
Boycott WALMART - The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, force criticized Wal-Mart for denying employee benefits to same-s-x partners and for failing to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. By comparison, the group said two other chain stores with a strong presence in New York, Costco and Walgreens, did much better.
Remember David Kato, Gay activist - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay!
NEW: Boycott Donald Trump, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and his other business's. Don't shop at any bulklding with Donald Trump's name! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred. Remember how poorly he treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is hater. Unforgiveable! Ready to dump NBC because they air Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"? Start Watching CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.
NEW: Boycott "APPLE." For the current owners and the aspiring owners of the I-phone, Apple allows an application, "The Gay App", which is supposed to help gay individuals turn straight. This is a step in the wrong direction.
Apple needs to know that the decision to allow this App on their products is a fallacious idea! Update: March 23, 2011: It is rumored that Apple removed this app from USA stores; but, not from foreign stores. This is offensive not just towards the LGBT community in the USA; but, offensive to the entire LGBT community around the world. How does anyone approve such a hateful, despicable app towards th LGBT community? Especially when Gay Teens are killing themselves after being harrassed by their church, parents, as well as bully's and teachers at school. The idea that this app was used, solicited is disgusting.

Important Notice: Our ObamaBiden2008 Group works hand - in - hand with Peckers PICS (Both groups were co-created to work with each-other). To prevent duplication of articles and questions, all members of this group are expected to join ObamaBiden2008. It is unfair for members that belong to both groups to hear members of just Peckers PICS (only) to make statements when the ObamaBiden2008 has covered such topics in detail. Therefore, members need to join ObamaBiden2008 immediately. This shall clear up communications and confusion. The LGBT cause is too important and beyond 1 person's need to just look at pictures. Therefore, please join ObamaBiden2008 now. No you don't have to read every article! But, it covers the LGBT community and includes updates on Health insurance; LGBT boycott list; Westboro Church; and the end of DADT, etc...Also, updates with the multi state gov't's war against unions and people with disabilities. The group is created for you! There are gay teen suicides going on. There are Hate crimes against gay people. There are gays who are fired over their sexual identity. There are gay people who died for our cause! You always reserve the right to remove yourself from all my groups if you do not appreciate this request. I have done everything I can and now it is time for you to step up! My Groups are for Yahoo members who sincerely care about LGBT rights and Gay Mens Health! Please Join Now!
------------------------------------
All members of "Peckers PICS" are requested to join our "Obama Biden 2008" group as it runs in conjunction to this group. Both groups shall not repeat articles from one group to another. However, to gain full knowledge of Gay rights, members must belong to the Obama group as well as this group. Therefore, please accept your invitation to join.
