I got a lot done

I got a lot done today and even managed to get to the gym! I guess I'm turning into a real "gym bunny" (is that what they call it?). My goal is to get there 4-5 times a week. I'm already starting to feel better, so I guess exercise does make a difference after all.

N.J. Teen's Death Probed as Hate Crime. A Newark, N.J., teenager was fatally stabbed Sunday morning after telling two men who were making sexual advances toward her that she was a lesbian, say authorities in New Jersey. The Essex County prosecutor's office on Monday determined that Shakia Gunn, 15, was the victim of a bias crime, which would increase the penalties if the attackers are convicted. Under New Jersey law, a murder committed because of the victim's sexual orientation carries stiffer penalties. Lt. Derek Glenn, a spokesman for the Newark Police Department, said charges would include felony murder.

Gunn and a group of friends had taken a train from New York City's Greenwich Village to Newark Penn Station and were waiting for a bus when two men drove up around 3:30 a.m. Sunday and tried to strike up a conversation with the girls. Glenn said the girls, ages 15-17, rebuffed the men and said they were lesbians, Glenn told the Newark Star-Ledger. "At some point during their interaction, they made their sexual orientation known." Gunn was stabbed in the scuffle that ensued.
