It's always down to the wire. Come on, men, give us your collective energies to help pass gay marriage here in New York!
On a lighter note, as I was ogling all these hot guys, I was thinking how we hadn't had a picture of Ben Godfre in a while, when lo and behold, he appears in all his beauty. Thanks, Jake, for helping me start the week off right!

Boycott TARGET-Trump-NBC-FOX NEWS/Safe PICS For All Ages/We Support Keith Olbermann. Keith begins his show "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" on Current TV, "MONDAY," June 20, 2011; 8PM EST. Personally, I will watch every one his shows that I can! Keith is the best in the news business. He does not BS! This is non-censured - Progressive Media that we need!
Alert: Target + Minnesota Forward + Tom Emmer = Support for a rather dangerous and radical political philosophy that diminishes LGBT people to pests that should be murdered. And "Target" is cool with this? in San Diego we peacefully canvassed customers near their stores. In return, TARGET is suing the LGBT community for voicing our right of FREE SPEECH! Now, Target lost in court! David beat Goliath! AWWW! Return everything you bought to TARGET and tell them why! ....Boycott TARGET!!!!!
Consider joining:

Reminder: Did you complete your Diet Journal today? Did you do any physical activity? If not, make a point of it by tomorrow! Perhaps our male fitness photos shall inspire you to get Fit!Take Action:Health - Wellness - Exercise - Reflections:5 Minutes Outside Can Boost Your Mood
By Leah Zerbe, Rodale - Jun 02, 2011
The next time you're looking for a natural mood elevator, turn to nature itself. Research published last year in the journal Environmental Science & Technology confirms what anyone who's experienced a sunny-day high already knows: Nature is almost foolproof at boosting your mood and self-esteem. And, amazingly, it only takes five minutes.
The details: Professor Jules Pretty and colleagues at the University of Essex in the UK analyzed findings from 10 separate studies that measured self-esteem and mood after people engaged in "green exercise": cycling, walking, running, gardening, farming, and water-based activities like fishing or sailing. In each of the studies, participants' self-esteem and mood were measured before and after the activities using a standard psychological test. The Essex researchers also assessed study variables such as exposure time outdoors, exercise intensity, type of green space (urban parks, rural setting, forest, and so forth), as well as subjects' age and mental-health status.
Regardless of what they were doing or where they were doing it, all subjects saw improvements in self-esteem and mood after exercising outdoors. People saw the greatest self-esteem changes while doing light-intensity exercise and after being outside for just five minutes. The biggest mood changes occurred after light- and vigorous-intensity workouts-also after just five minutes. (Note: Self-esteem and mood continued to improve with longer workouts, but the changes were greatest after five minutes.) Around water seemed the most uplifting places to exercise, and while all age groups saw mood and self-esteem boosts, people between the ages of 30 and 50 experienced the greatest lift.
Does being outdoors make you a better person? Studies say it can.What it means: "For 300,000 generations, humans were hunter-gatherers and farmers," says Pretty. "Yet for the last six to eight generations, we have been living in an increasingly industrialized world. The disconnection from nature is deeply felt." Which is why a mere five minutes of nature can have such a profound impact, he says. "That small amount of time makes more sense when you see it in the context of where people are coming from-stepping outside from a stressful day, for example," he says. In many cases, the effect can be almost immediate; your mood lifts as if by magic.
Importantly, studies like this help scientists and health professionals persuade policy makers to provide more funding for green spaces. This way, nature can be used as health care, Pretty says. But don't wait for the slow wheels of bureaucracy to provide outdoor escape. It's there already.Feeling sad or stressed? Turn off the TV and do this for an instant mood boost.Here are a few ways to sneak more nature into your life:Organize regular "moving meetings."
Every cubicle-dwelling office worker yearns for a few minutes outside on a beautiful day. No problem. Replacing conventional sit-down meetings with outdoor walk-and-talks provides workers with light-intensity exercise (the most beneficial type in this study), and a change of scenery. Inevitable result: less stress, more creativity. (Watch our moving meeting video for tips on organizing them.)
Grab your walking shoes-not a cup of coffee.
As this study showed, it doesn't take much time to boost your mood. When the day starts to wear on you and you need a break-or even before this happens!-head outside and walk around your office building for five minutes rather than trudging to the cafeteria for a coffee or snack.
Get a laptop.
Ask your boss for one, then try to schedule some work outside each day. Many cities are now installing free Wi-Fi in parks (contact your local parks department to check if it's offered on your area), making them natural escapes from cubicles and offices. If you don't need an Internet connection, it's easier still to find a sunny spot for some outside work time.
Try adding these to your home for a happiness boost.Take up kayaking.
Since water activities may lead to the biggest boost in mood and self-esteem, experiment this summer with an activity you've never tried, whether it's kayaking, sailing, canoeing, fishing, or even sculling.
Volunteer.
National, state, and local parks, as well as nonprofits, are always looking for volunteers to help clean up forests, trails, and rivers. Contact your local chapter of the Waterkeeper Alliance or Sierra Club, or find another local group that gets volunteers outdoors to help out.
- Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck's radio show and his quest spots on Fox News. Glenn Beck is anti-gay rights. Update: Boycott Successful: Update 4/7/2011: Beck has been fired by FOX NEWS! Radio stations dropping Beck as well in several locations. Now, tell FOX to stop having Beck as a Guest.
- 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. Update 03/08/11 - Lady Gaga Ends Target Partnership, Reportedly Over Target's Poor LGBT Stance. Update 3/25/2010 - Target displays their hypocrisy and Sues California Gay Rights Group for Lobbying Outside Stores. Target is attempting to block the LGBT right of free speech! STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 4/8/2011: Target lost it's case to stop the LGBT from canvassing in front of their stores. A huge PR Disaster for TARGET! Perhaps Target should go out of business as they betrayed their investers and customer base. Target contributed massive funds to a politician who would like to exterminate gays. Now, Target can not stop us from Boycotting them, nor picketing, nor talking to customers near their stores; although, Target allows a anti-gay company such as the Salvation Army to stand outside their door and speak with customers and raise money. Isn't this a double standard?
- 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!
- "Tune Out Trump", Boycott all Trump Hotel, casinos, holdings, 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? After making racist remarks about Obama and recv'g public backlash, Trump decided not to run for president after NBC renewed his awful TV Show. How can NBC re-new the clown's show after he pulled such hateful shenanigans? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and Trump's other business's. Don't shop at any bullding with Donald Trump's name to include Trump Hotels, Casinos, Condo's, Offices, Shops! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred towards gays and blacks with his birther remarks and anti-gay rhetoric. Remember how poorly Trump treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is biget. Unforgiveable! Again, Dump NBC because they air/re-newed Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"! Now the Donald Claims the Long Form Birth certificate is a fraud. And NBC keeps this guy?
And Now, Our War of the Fittest!

Therefore, we peck at items such as Gay Men's Health, Male Fitness, Gay (LGBT) Politics & Issues. In this section you may peck at each photo in order to decide the winner of the "war of the fittest!"

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.
