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!!!!!

Health - Wellness - Exercise - Reflections:
Play Active Video Games - For Weight-Loss

Until recently, video games and weight loss weren't typically mentioned in the same sentence. But Nintendo Wii, Kinect for Xbox 360 and Playstation Move have brought "exergaming" to the masses. With titles like Wii Fit and EA Sports Active, games makers are saying that a gaming experience could actually be good for you.
 
When the energy expenditure related to actively playing video games is calculated, it seems that it's similar in intensity to light-to-moderate traditional physical exercise, like walking or even light jogging. In fact, one study found that playing video games was associated with burning about 350 calories per hour – that's more than walking at three miles per hour. And unlike walking, it can be done at night or when it is twenty below zero outside. As might be expected, more active games that incorporate dancing or higher-energy sports burn more calories.
 
One criticism of video gaming as exercise is that it needs to be done frequently and consistently in order to have any beneficial effect. This is true, but I would guess that many people's Wii or Xbox gets more time than the treadmill gathering dust in their basement. Video gaming also has some advantages of being social (if you like), and it's a nice option for seniors, who can use it in conjunction with physical therapy and to augment rehabilitation.
Take Action:
  • 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  • Update: DADT has been repealed.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 its 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?

Md. Gov. Martin O'Malley expresses support for new gay marriage bill
By Associated Press - Washington Post - July 15, 2011

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Gov. Martin O'Malley said Friday he will push harder for a same-sex marriage measure in Maryland next year if it mirrors legislation that passed in New York after changes were made to protect religious freedom.

"I think we can learn from what they did," O'Malley, a Democrat, said while attending the National Governors Association meeting in Salt Lake City. "One of the things we're looking at in the drafting is how their clauses with regard to religious freedom were different from ours. That might improve our efforts. And I certainly plan to be very active in support of it, and we'll have other announcements in upcoming months."

O'Malley said he is talking with a broad coalition that has formed around the issue.

Gay marriage legislation passed the Maryland Senate this year, but stalled in the House of Delegates. The House sent the bill back to committee after it was determined it was a few votes short.

While O'Malley said he would have signed the bill this year if it had passed, he did not include it in his list of legislative priorities. Now he said he believes he can help make more of a difference in another try.

"There are times in Annapolis when a governor's support can move an issue over the goal line.... This is one of those issues that can be resolved, as New York showed, with proper protections in place for religious freedoms," O'Malley said.

Religious exemptions were critical to the New York measure's passage. That bill was changed so that state and local governments could not penalize or withhold benefits from a religious institution or a nonprofit under its control for barring access to same-sex ceremonies.

Lawmakers in Maryland considered stronger protections for religious institutions in the state's House of Delegates. An amendment was offered that would have gone farther to protect religious institutions from being forced to participate in gay weddings. But the amendment was rejected. House leadership had indicated that any changes to the Senate's bill would have kept it from being approved there and sent to O'Malley for his signature.

In Maryland, same-sex marriage supporters rekindled debate on the issue this week by announcing the new coalition to push for passage next year. Their announcement brought a swift response from opponents, who vowed to return to Annapolis to keep Maryland's marriage laws unchanged.

Opponents underscored the state's mechanism for voters to petition legislation to the ballot, a petition process currently being used by opponents of separate legislation that would allow in-state tuition for illegal immigrants under certain circumstances.

State Sen. Richard Madaleno, a Montgomery County Democrat, said he met with the governor to discuss same-sex marriage legislation.

"The governor is interested in understanding the differences in the bill that passed the Maryland Senate, the new law enacted in New York and what religious exemptions are elsewhere in the country," Madaleno, an openly gay lawmaker, said.

Madaleno also said the legislation is still very much under discussion.

"I think there are many people who are hopeful that the governor will decide to introduce this bill next year," Madaleno said.

Joe Bryce, O'Malley's chief legislative officer, said the administration is having internal discussions about legislation and meeting with lawmakers.
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."
