Can't Fall Asleep? Try This Trick

By Jorge Cruise / February 11, 2012

I regularly preach the benefits of a good night's sleep for helping your muscles repair themselves. But did you know that a solid night's rest can also sharpen your mind and lift your spirits? Getting enough zzz's helps you concentrate during the day and even improves your ability to learn. This is because the more sleep you get, the more minutes your brain spends in the rapid eye movement (REM) phase. And REM sleep is crucial for cementing new information into long- and short-term memory. According to research, it's during REM sleep that we file away everything we learn.

A good night's sleep is as important to your overall health as regular exercise and a healthy diet. But what if you have trouble falling asleep at night, tossing and turning with worrisome thoughts that keep you awake? Try this little trick: Lie on your back and concentrate on breathing deeply 10 times, slowing each breath you take. Then lie on your right side and breathe deeply 15 times. Finally, move to your left side and breathe deeply 20 times… if you don't fall asleep before then, that is!
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 - Take Action:
    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!"
And Now, Our War of the Fittest!

Supremes should OK gay marriage
February 11, 2012 - Orlando Sentinel

Sooner, rather than later, the issue of gay marriage is going to wind up in the United States Supreme Court. It took another step in that direction this week, when a federal appeals court struck down California's ban on gay marriage.

There is a sense that the appeals court ruling, which essentially threw out the ban known as Proposition 8, was too narrowly drawn to wind up as the ultimate U.S. Supreme Court case. With more appeals expected, gay and lesbian couples aren't expected to be allowed to legally marry in California anytime soon.

But the trend toward acceptance of gay marriage is clear, and eventually the Supreme Court will get the right case to decide on the constitutionality of same-sex marriage bans. And the Supreme Court should give it the final OK.

Proposition 8 (California, 2010) The federal court said California's ban served "no purpose ... other than to lessen the status and human dignity of gays and lesbians in California."

It is a sentiment that has gained considerable strength in recent years. Since Massachusetts became the first state to allow same-sex marriage, five other states -- New York, Connecticut, Iowa, New Hampshire, Vermont and Iowa, as well as the District of Columbia -- have followed suit. California is the only state where gays won the right to marry only to see that right taken away.

We have also seen the military get rid of its discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. And last year a Senate committee voted to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act that defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman. The bill did not get through the full Senate, but it created a dialogue about justice and equal rights for all Americans, and again showed that the times, they are a-changin'.

The change in Florida, unfortunately, has been a lot slower than elsewhere.

Florida was the last state in the country to eliminate a ban on gay adoption, and that didn't happen until 2010. And Florida is still one of about 30 states that have some kind of ban on same-sex marriage. In Florida, it was even written into the state constitution in 2008 with the Marriage Protection Act.

Still, fairness and equal rights for all people, regardless of sexual orientation, seems to be catching on. The California case might not be the right one to bring the issue in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, but in the near future it is headed that way.

And then the Supreme Court should vote for fairness and equal treatment for all people.
