Conquer the Night

Many dieters say  that the most difficult time for them to conquer emotional eating comes at 7 p.m. - after dinner and when there are few distractions. We're likely to be stewing over something that happened earlier in the day, and the fridge may seem to call out for us. Does this sound familiar? The key to conquering this time of day is simple: You must turn to your support system, comprised of a group of close friends or weight-loss buddies.

Chatting with your buddies every night can help keep you on track and fend off nighttime bingeing. You can discuss your diet hurdles on the phone, online or in person – whichever works best for you. Better yet, take a walk around the neighborhood with your support team; you'll be able to unload heavy feelings and burn calories at the same time!

On the computer or TV?  Make that place - a no food area! 
Take Action:
  • 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! Further, Boycott Fox's Owner "Rupert Murcoch" and get him thrown in jail for illegal - political donations, corruption, greed, bribery, hacking!
  • 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 a LGBT friendly 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 money to anti-gay 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 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.
  • "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 Georgia for Execution of Troy Davis @ 11:08 EST, Sep 21, 2011:
    Former US President and Former GA Gov. Jimmy Carter felt that TROY DAVIS should not be executed and deserved a re-trial. The Former Director of the FBI felt that TROY DAVIS Was Not Guilty! Do not drive through Goergia as it is dangerous. Do not fly via Atlanta. For your safety -Do not travel to GA. TELL YOUR COMPANY NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CONVENTION IN GA! "Georgia Executes Innocent People!"

Political victories for gays and lesbians across the nation
Nov. 9, 2011 -  by Andrew Davis, Windy City Times

Various elections took place nationally Nov. 8--and the results were generally positive for the LGBT community.

Lesbian Houston Mayor Annise Parker was re-elected despite a low approval rating and an opponent's anti-gay statements, according to Advocate.com. Parker prevailed with 51 percent of the vote; Dave Wilson, who criticized the incumbent over the issue of sexual orientation, had 12 percent.

Also in Houston, Mike Laster became the first openly gay man elected to the city council. Laster is an attorney specializing in real estate, and has practiced for the past 13 years.

In a race that had implications regarding Iowa's marriage-equality law, Democrat Liz Mathis defeated Republican Cindy Golding 56 percent to 44 percent, the Des Moines Register reported. Democrats will keep a 26-24 edge through the 2012 legislative session; Republicans--especially those hoping for Iowa's same-sex-marriage statute to be overturned--had hoped for a 25-25 tie. "The marriage issue is settled, voters clearly care about issues directly affecting their everyday lives," said Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese in a statement. "Today's election serves as a message that it's time to get on with the people's business."

In a Virginia state Senate race, openly gay GOP candidate Patrick Forrest lost, 60 percent to 40 percent, to Democratic incumbent Sen. Janet Howell, the McLean Patch reported. Recently, the Forrest campaign accused Howell and her staff members of telling people Forrest would push "the homosexual agenda," something Howell denied.

However, Virginia Democratic state Rep. Adam Ebbin will become the state's first openly gay state senator after winning the 30th Senate District race, according to the Washington Blade. Running in a solidly Democratic district that includes sections of Alexandria, Arlington and Fairfax counties, Ebbin defeated Republican challenger Timothy McGhee 64 percent to 35 percent.

Caitlin Copple, an out lesbian, won her race for the city council in Missoula, Mont.--becoming the city's first out gay councilmember, the Montana Kaimin reported. In doing so, she defeated Ward 4 incumbent Lyn Hellegaard, who voted against an LGBT nondiscrimination ordinance.

Cincinnati, Ohio, also made history, as Chris Seelbach became that city's first openly gay councilmember, according to LGBTQ Nation. Seelbach, 31, is vice president and CFO of The Seidewitz Group, a marketing and consulting firm.

In Indianapolis, Zach Adamson became the first openly LGBT city councilmember, GayPolitics.com reported. "This is a milestone for Indianapolis and a remarkable victory for Zach. We couldn't be happier for him and for the LGBT community in Indianapolis," said Chuck Wolfe, president and CEO of the Victory Fund. The top four vote-getters for the council seats were all Democrats.

Also, openly gay Chapel Hill, N.C., Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt won his re-election bid with 78 percent of the vote; he ran against four-time candidate Kevin Wolff, who took about 18 percent of the vote. In addition, openly gay 22-year-old and recent University of North Carolina graduate Lee Storrow won his race for a seat on the Chapel Hill Town Council, becoming the youngest member on the council in two decades.

Robin Kniech became Denver, Colo.'s, first out gay city councilmember, according to a Victory Fund press release. Currently employed at a local non-profit focused on Denver and the Metro Region, Kniech and her partner of a decade have a 1-year-old son.

Holyoke, Mass., elected the country's youngest gay mayor--22-year-old Alex Morse, according to LGBTQ Nation. He edged longtime political figure Elaine Pluta 53 percent to 47 percent, MassLive reported. "This is an incredible moment, not just for this campaign, but for the city of Holyoke. This has never been about me. This has never been about Alex Morse. This has been about the future of Holyoke," Morse said.

Daniel Hernandez, Jr.--the openly gay intern who helped save the life of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz.--was elected to fill a vacancy on the Sunnyside Unified School District governing board, with 61.8 percent of the vote to Sherrie Burdic's 36 percent, Arizona Public Media reported.

LaWana Mayfield prevailed in her race for the Charlotte, N.C., city council, becoming the first openly LGBT elected official there, according to LGBTQ Nation. "It's historic, the first time anyone LGBT out on the city council," said Scott Bishop, a volunteer with Equality North Carolina and the Human Rights Campaign. "At least now we have someone [ on council ] all the time who can give a counterbalance to whatever is said in a meeting where we might not always be present."

Also, Mary Doran won one of four seats on the seven-member St. Paul, Minn., Board of Education, TwinCities.com reported. Doran and Louise Seeba, with approximately 15 percent each, will replace two incumbents who did not seek re-election. Doran is a mother of two who works in architectual drafting and design.

Pedro Segarra was re-elected mayor of Hartford, Conn. He took over as mayor in June 2010 after former Mayor Eddie Perez was convicted on charges of corruption, according to TheRepublic.com. Segarra easily defeated three petitioning candidates to win his first full term.

Bruce Harris is probably the country's first openly gay, African-American Republican mayor after winning in Chatham Borough, N.J. He served on the Chatham Borough Council for the past eight years, and is currently its senior member, according to the Victory Fund.

In Maine, voters overturned a new GOP law that restricted voters' rights by ending same-day registration in the state, according to a National Gay and Lesbian Task Force press release. For nearly four decades, eligible Maine residents have been able to register and vote on Election Day, but in June the GOP-controlled state Legislature voted to overturn the law. Then, a coalition of progressive organizations--including the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force's local partner, EqualityMaine--launched a campaign to restore same-day voter registration.

Traverse City, Mich., voters overwhelmingly decided to maintain a nondiscrimination ordinance that protects on the bases of sexual orientation and gender identity, Advocate.com reported. Residents voted by an almost-two-to-one margin to keep protections in housing for LGBT individuals. "The people of Traverse City have sent a clear message that they value their LGBT friends, neighbors, co-workers and family members and don't want to see them left vulnerable to discrimination," Rea Carey, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force executive director, said in a press release.

Also, in Mississippi, voters rejected the so-called "personhood amendment," which would have defined life as starting at conception, CNN reported. Critics contend the amendment was an attempt to outlaw abortion--even for women who are the victims of rape and incest. Gov. Haley Barbour initially questioned the amendment, but eventually supported it.

In a setback for gay and lesbian couples, Rose Belforti--the Ledyard, N.Y., town clerk who refused to sign same-sex marriage licenses--defeated write-in challenger Ed Easter to retain her seat, according to AuburnPub.com. "On that level, I'm glad I have job. I feel great that people were able to support me even though I wanted to do something different and challenge Governor ( Andrew ) Cuomo's law," she said.

Also, it looked unlikely that Bevan Dufty would become San Francisco's first openly gay mayor. At last report, Mayor Ed Lee held a commanding lead in the mayor's race against a diverse slate of 15 candidates, Fox News reported. Dufty served on the board of supervisors in the same seat once held by the late gay-rights leader Harvey Milk.
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."
