When you are taking care of an aging parent or another loved one this is a stressful process. Trying to take away a parent’s car keys so they don’t hurt themselves or others is one of the most common needs for a guardian. Placing a loved one in a nursing home is another “challenge” that guardianships are able to address. The need for the guardianship can be caused by diseases such as cancer, HIV, or Alzheimer's syndrome or by injuries such as head trauma from a fall or car accident.

It’s not just the need to take care of a loved one that needs to be solved through a guardianship. Unfortunately, because of the stress, most times there is a battle between family members over who knows best how to take care of their loved one. Guardianships solve the conflict and, most importantly, make sure your loved one is taken care of.

A guardianship is legal process where one person is granted the right to make decisions for another person. In Florida the person given the legal authority over another person is called the guardian. The loved one who needs help is called the ward.

A guardian is appointed to a ward when the ward be-comes incapacitated. The court documents are very specific and your attorney can answer questions that will apply for your situation. As Once the court documents are filed, the court will then appoint two people usually a doctor/psychologist and a third person – a layperson- to make a report to the court as to whether or not the person is incapacitated. The court will also appoint an attorney to represent the person who is allegedly incapacitated. If the committee finds the person is either partially or totally incapacitated then the court will appoint a guardian.

A guardian can either be a person or a bank or charitable organization. However, banks may only act as guardian over a person's property/money but cannot make personal decisions regarding a driver’s license or living in a nursing home. In contrast, a person appointed guardian however may exercise any of the ward’s legal rights i.e. financial and paying bills and deciding where the loved

one lives. Guardians can seek medical care, personal care and provide for a residence for the ward. There are specific requirements as to who can serve as guardians.

Your attorney will help you with different reports and updates for the Judge. This is designed to protect you –and- your loved one.

Every state is different, but in Florida, guardianships are not always permanent. Sometimes the ward recovers from whatever caused them to become incapacitated – sometimes a stroke or an illness that has been resolved. In these situations the court can lift the guardianship over the ward and the ward can resume a normal life.

The above article is general in nature and should not be relied upon for specific legal advice. Every legal situation is different. _______________________ Gordon T.

Equality Florida is the largest civil rights organi-zation dedicated to securing full equality for Florida’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans-gender (LGBT) community. Through lobbying, grassroots organizing, education, and coalition building, we are changing Florida so that no one suffers harassment or discrimination on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Equality Florida formed in 1997 as Governor Jeb Bush took office and Florida’s state gov-ernment made a hard turn to the right. In an era of setbacks for progressive causes, Equal-ity Florida has defeated every piece of anti-LGBT legislation filed in Tallahassee for 14 years in a row. These bills included efforts to: overturn all local anti-discrimination policies, repeal all safe schools policies, expand Florida’s anti-gay adoption ban, and prohibit domestic part-nership benefits and protections. Equality Florida actually consists of two organiza-tions: Equality Florida Inc. and sister organization,

Equality Florida Institute, Inc. The institute is our 501(c-3) charity organization that focuses of edu-cating the public, elected officials, and businesses about issues of importance to the LGBT commu-nity. Donations to Equality Florida Institute, Inc. are tax deductable to the full extent of the law. Equality Florida, Inc. is our 501(c-4) non-profit advocacy organization that focuses on: 1) Advo-cating for and against new laws that impact the lives of LGBT Floridians; and 2) Mobilizing pro-equality voters. Donations to Equality Florida, Inc. are not tax deductable, but they go directly toward supporting our aggressive advocacy and election efforts at the state and local level. June is going to be one of the most important months in the history of the LGBT Civil Rights Movement. And as all of us wait for the Supreme Court decision on Marriage Equality, you can be sure we’ll keep you posted every step of the way with breaking news and expert analysis on what the decision means for Florida. Next month is also important because every June we hold our annual Equal-a-thon fund-raising campaign. This one fundraising effort ensures we can support our grassroots teams all summer long, and it determines what equal rights campaigns we can take on for the rest of the year. Our 5th Annual Equal-a-thon officially kicks off on June 11

th. This year’s Equal-a-thon is espe-

cially important, because we know that whatever the Supreme Court decides, we must use this his-toric moment to accelerate our fight for full equal-ity here in Florida. If you would like to volunteer and/or donate with Equality Florida please visit us at www.eqfl.org

Recently, as I was drying off after my shower, I happened to look in the mirror and see the scars on the outside of each of my thighs and hips, scars from where I’d had hip replacement in 2002. The surgery was necessary to remove both hips that had been destroyed by the disease known as avascular necrosis. The surgery eliminated pain, removed dead bones from my body, and prevented the spread of the disease, leaving those small linear “7-shaped” scars. There are so many types of scars that we can acquire in our lifetime. Some scars are visible to everyone. Others can only be seen by ourselves, or those with whom we share them. Still, others aren’t visible at all, but they’re still there. While some scars can be a badge of honor, others can bring us such feelings of shame. Some of the scar-ring that many experienced is inflicted by our own fami-lies, our acquaintances, or our churches simply be-cause we are who we are or mistakes we have made in life. And, all too often, the wounds that leave these scars can lead to suicide, substance abuse, isolation, and so much needless pain. We don’t always know how strong we can be until we are wounded and receive some scars. And sometimes we don’t really know how wonderful our friends are until they see us “bleeding” and come to our aid.

I can’t tell you how many times in my lifetime my friends have picked me up, dusted me off, put a “Band-Aid” on my scrapes, and have been there with me when things, big and small, have happened in my life. No matter what may come along that can leave a scar, my friendship family make me feel beautiful and strong and invincible. That is what Christ says we are to do in our daily walk with Him – love and support one another unconditionally. Real love is like that—it makes my scars invisible. I hope you, too, find Christ’s love, through your daily walk to be helpful in healing your scars. Real love is like that.

COVER STORY: The Jorge ShowCOVER STORY: The Jorge Show

14 cityXtra

Creative Director,

Host, and Producer Jorge Alvarado hosts The Jorge Show. Having an extensive career in creative direction, event promotions and community activism, Jorge’s universal appeal and branding strategies continue to expand the show’s audience. His bold presentations and collaborative efforts have been recognized by print, broadcast media and other professionals in the entertainment industry. The combination of Alvarado’s creative delivery in addition to the show’s solid format has proven to be successful in reaching a broader and more diverse audience. From hosting events to red carpet reporting, he is a natural. From art direction to media production, Jorge delivers. cityXtra had the opportunity to talk with Jorge recently:

CX: What qualities separate an average talk show host from a great one? JA: For me, it is the way they connect with their audience. Is it sincere, is it honest? Is it really you? A great talk show host will stand behind what they believe in

and they’re not afraid to be a voice of others. I also think that a great talk show host knows how to disseminate information, provoke thought while at the same time entertain the audience. I don’t think that I’m going to be revealing whose baby it is and I don’t want people throwing chairs, shade sure chairs no. CX: Who is the most interesting person you

have interviewed? JA: Everyone has been interesting and unique because everyone’s story is different. However, I am mostly drawn to people who are in the Creative Industries. Whether they are an artist, designer, musician, etc. Those are the people who are powered by their ideas and imagination. CX: Who would be your favorite person to in-terview? JA: Madonna CX: What is the most embarrassing moment you have had while recording? JA: I haven’t had an embarrassing moment yet but I did have a freaking out moment recently. I was traveling with my producer and our schedule was off the chain. I had to do interviews, red carpet reporting and host an award show. We did New York, Boston, Miami and back to Tampa in 3 days. Anyway we were ready to hit it but as we were leaving the airport in NYC we suddenly realized we left the video and camera equipment on the plane. Not CUTE at all! I instantly thought EPIC FAIL. But we were able to recover everything so that brought us back to CUTE. LOL CX: What is the most favorite part of doing The Jorge Show? JA: Being able to connect with the audience as JORGE. I’m not a news reporter per say or a broadcast journalist nor do I want to be and I most definitely do not speak their language. I interact

Page 15: cityXtra News (CXN Magazine) - July 2013

cityXtra 15

with anyone and everyone I encounter in a social setting. We continually reach out to our audience and we encourage them to call us , tweet us because we really want to hear what they have to say. I feel like I'm to spending time with my friends. Talking loud, being serious for a hot

minute and then busting out with a zinger and everyone is laughing. That’s why I like to call it Happy Hour on The JORGE Show. CX: Where do you see the format going in the future with The Jorge Show? JA: It’s hard to say. We can go into so many different directions and that’s the fun part. I

haven’t thought too much about the future though, my mind is always on how we can reach more people and how we can create a positive impact. CX: Can you see yourself doing a Talk Show Daytime? What type of format would you like to do? JA: I can talk all day long if you want me to. I’m open to any and all formats as long as I can do it my way. CX: Do you believe the US Supreme Court will rule on Gay Marriage? If yes, what do you think this means for the LGBT Community? JA: I hope so. It’s only a matter of time. I think it would mean everything to everyone not just the LGBT Community. Is that not what equality is all about? Marriage the noun, marry the verb. Pretty strong word that has so much meaning and sym-bolism and in our lifetime has evolved from being a religious institution granting us permission to love one another . To me it’s the word that’s represents acceptance, compassion, tolerance, understanding, equality and the right to protect my family and hold our government accountable in securing that right. CX: Were you bullied as a child? If yes how did you overcome the bullying? JA: No, but I think that because I was not bullied I have a greater need to speak up and stand up for those who have. CX: What is the mission with The Jorge Show? JA: The mission of The JORGE Show is to en-courage others to use their voice and to create their own opportunities.

CX: How to you plan to use The Jorge Show to gain acceptance for your LGBT Brothers & Sisters? JA: I want my brothers and sisters to understand that our voices are not to be heard just in the GLBT community and that the GLBT Lifestyle shouldn't be so exclusive. If we want acceptance, diversity if we want equality then we should lead by example and treat ourselves within our very own community with dignity, respect and kind-ness. Gay culture tends to be driven so much by trends and local popularity contest and if your opinion or approach is different it almost like be excommunicated from the church. We need reach each other first and then continue to reach outside of the GLBT community. CX: What is your favorite talk show host? And why? JA: Joan Rivers. Hollywood really put her through it. Had it all, tragedy, betrayal , lost it all but she championed through all that adversity and still looks like she 30, ok maybe 40..... CX: Who is your hero? And why? JA: I have my own cast of Super Heroes! I look to my mother for guidance and strength, my sisters compassion inspires me , the brilliant mind of my BFF since kindergarten who is actually a producer on the show, street credit from my 100% Puerto Rican brothers, my lady friends who keep it real with me and most importantly my Husband for believing in me and being so supportive of all of my creative efforts. He never asks questions and doesn’t want to be in the limelight he just wants me to be happy and successful. CX: What is your favorite place to go out on the town? Why? JA: I don’t have a favorite place in any town. I love driving around in the car, listening to music and act-ing out music video dance sequences in my head. For some reason that’s when all the ideas start flooding my brain. Kind of like when my Chihuahua sticks his head out the window and is on sensory overload except I keep my head inside the car and I click it or ticket.

By Dr. Michael Burcham What’s your business idea? If you knew you wouldn’t fail, what business would you launch?

I spend most days with individuals who are thinking about an idea. A common point I hear is “my idea isn’t big enough” or “it’s a pretty ordinary idea.” My answer is always – Good! Most successful businesses are solving ordinary problems for ordinary people. If your idea or concept solves a problem you have – it likely solves someone else’s problem.

But the idea alone won’t become a business. Good ideas fail every day. The difference between a good idea and a successful business is about execution – doing the work to transform the idea into something meaningful that solves problems.

In any entrepreneurial endeavor, there is no right way; there is only the way that works. As an entrepreneur and an investor, I’ve developed a “5M” method to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into an investable business. I’d like to share these 5 key areas of focus with you.

M1: Management – Who is responsible for executing? Entrepreneurship is a TEAM sport. With few exceptions, great companies are built by teams, not individuals. In order to lead a business – you need to attract a team that is passionate about your concept. If no one is following… you’re not a leader. Management teams build the business, create value for investors and are responsible for executing. Who is on your team?

A startup business is going to have several key positions that need to be held within the company to be successful. For example, one of the easiest breakdowns in responsibilities is inside vs. outside (Marketing and Operations). Who is running the business? Who is selling the product?

M2: The Model – How does it make money? “Business Model” is an overcomplicated word used to describe this simple notion: How does your shiny object make money?

Is the business based on a transaction where customers pay once and take the product with them? Is it a subscription model where customers pay a recurring charge? Is it “Razors and Blades” where the business gives away a product to create a market for complimentary products? These are some examples of business models. The differences between them can impact the expense structure of a business and its approach to marketing and growth.

M3: Market – Who buys what you’re selling? Market sums up 5 questions: What is your product? Who are your customers? Why do customers want it? How do you know? How do they get it?

A phrase entrepreneurs often hear at the Center is “Customer Pain.” What problems (pain) do your customers have that they are willing to pay you to solve? A product that solves a pain creates a market.

By targeting your customers very specifically -

entrepreneurs are more likely to get real traction in their market and create a core customer following that becomes the foundation for future growth.

M4: Money – When does it run out? Money is NOT “how much” the business will make. It’s “how long” until the business is profitable or runs out of money. Before things like revenue and profit, a startup will incur expenses. The number one reason startups fail is that they run out of money before the business reaches profitability. Entrepreneurs that know how much money they need, how much they have, and what goals need to be accomplished within their timeframe

are more likely to build a sustainable business.

Money is the lifeblood of business. When it runs out, the entrepreneur can’t pay employees. It can’t buy product. It can’t fulfill customer needs. When that happens, the idea dies.

M5: Momentum – What’s the proof? How are you creating energy? Where’s the traction? Where’s the proof?

Milestones are proof that a management team is executing successfully. How many products are pre-sold? How many strategic partners and core customers? What milestones have been achieved and what are the next steps?

Momentum creates investor confidence in an entrepreneur’s ability to execute. I find that working in quarterly increments of planning, executing and building momentum provide the startup entrepreneur the opportunity to adjust to their market reality and quickly build investor confidence. The ability to show momentum, and turn ideas into action creates strong investor confidence in a startup business.

The Final Word

Entrepreneurship is the great equalizer. When you are able to achieve your own business success – you get the opportunity to transcend most of the issues of equality in the workplace – because it’s YOUR workplace! Entrepreneurship is also about taking control of your life and pursuing your own American

Dream.

XTRA: TransgenderXTRA: Transgender Written By : Brittany Moore "When we think of ourselves as male or female, it's called gender identity. Everyone has a gender identity — the inborn sense of ourselves as being male or female. Most people's gender identity matches their anat-omy. But those who are transgender feel different from their physical appearances. What society expects of men, women, boys, and girls also affects what we feel about ourselves. Every culture has "rules" about what is expected for men and what is expected for women. These expectations can include things like hairstyles, clothing, and jobs — and how people should act or behave. Society doesn't have to state these rules because we see them all over. So most people grow up believing men should act a certain way and women should act a certain way without thinking about it much. Transgender people, though, have a very different sense of themselves. Some transgender people know they feel "different" from the time they're young children. Others start sensing it around puberty or even later. When people who are transgender become aware that they feel mismatched with their bodies, they may feel confused and emotionally conflicted. Some decide to physically change their bodies — through surgery or taking hormones — to match the gender they feel they really are. Physically becoming the opposite gender can be a long, complicated, and expensive process. Not all transgender people decide to get surgery or hormones, though. Some are most comfortable keeping their physical anatomy but dressing as the opposite gender. Some aren't completely sure what they want yet, but may start by asking to be called a new name and use the pronouns that go with that name (such as "Amanda" instead of "Anthony" and "she" instead of "he"). Once transgender people start living their lives as the opposite gender, many issues may come up — like how to fill out forms that require checking "female" or "male," and even which public bathrooms to use. As with any group, not all transgender people want or think the same things. It all depends on what that particular person needs to feel most comfortable in both body and mind. For people who are transgender, the realization that they feel different from others also can be very difficult. They may face rejection, discrimination, and even anger from people who don't understand transgender identity, and it can be a challenge to deal with others' reactions. Not everyone is tolerant or accepting, and transgender

teens can face situations that can feel hostile and be unfair. This may lead to feelings of depression and isolation. Advocacy groups and a growing number of health professionals can help transgender people find accep-tance, support, rights, and care. Many expert medical centers are available to help transgender people —and their families — address the complex physical and emotional issues they might face. Like everyone, transgender people want to feel accepted, understood, and supported.

Tennessee’s third largest city is also one of its most cultural. Visitors to Knoxville are greeted by the city’s iconic Sunsphere. Constructed for the 1982 World’s Fair, the 266-foot structure features an observation deck on the fourth floor giving visitors’ unobstructed 360-degree views of the city. A new highlight of the Sunsphere is Icon Ultra Lounge, a chic bar and restaurant offering live music and cuisine from around the globe. Located a few steps away from the Sunsphere in World’s Fair Park is the Knoxville Museum of Art, a beautiful modern building housing an array of fine art and works related to the history of Tennessee. As impressive as the collection was, the highlight of my trip was my much anticipated visit to the Knoxville Zoo. A short drive from downtown, the Knoxville Zoo is one of the most visited attractions in the state, with over 400,000 guests last year. One of my favorite exhibits on the property is the Red Panda Village. Interestingly enough, since 1979, ninety-three cubs have been born here, more than any other zoo in the Western Hemisphere. Visitors can view the beautiful red panda lounging in the trees up above from any one of three viewing areas. The Grasslands Africa exhibition was a favorite as well. Home to the elephant, ostrich, zebra and giraffe exhibits. Grasslands Africa provides tons of great photo opportunities, including a giraffe feeding experience which recently opened to zoo guests. Perched eye-to-eye with the tallest land mammals in the world is quite an extraordinary experience; however, getting the opportunity to hand-feed them is even more memorable. When in Knoxville, check in at the Oliver Hotel, a boutique property located on Market Square. The hotel features 28 elegantly appointed rooms featuring handcrafted furniture, original artwork, and luxurious room amenities including walk-in showers. Originally built in 1876 as the Peter Kern Bakery, the building has hosted everything from the Kern's candy counter and soda fountain to a drugstore, and dancing hall. The current owners purchased the building in 2011 and developed it into one of the hottest properties in town. Staying at the Oliver Hotel has its perks. Located at the base of the hotel, overlooking Market Square is Tupelo Honey Café, an offshoot of the original Asheville, NC establishment. Diners are greeted by friendly staff serving hot, fluffy homemade biscuits with of course, honey. Unique entrees worth trying include the Roast Beef Po’ Boy served with fried green tomatoes and cherry pepper aioli as well as When Shrimp Met Taco, two soft flour tortillas, filled with flash-fried shrimp, julienned Swiss chard, house-made smoked jalapeno aioli and Sunshot Salsa. The area in and around Market Square has emerged as

the epicenter of Knoxville. This is where locals mingle with tourists and listen to live music, shop at small boutiques and art galleries and dine at a variety of restaurants. The square is also home to numerous festivals throughout the year as well as other family-oriented events and a Regal movie theater. Just outside downtown lies an urban playground for nature buffs and those seeking to explore the outdoors. Ijams Nature Center is a tranquil oasis only minutes from urban hustle and bustle, but it makes visitors feel as if they are miles away. The Wildlife Sanctuary Trail System features almost 4 miles of hiking-only trails and another 7.0 miles of multi-use trails that have been routed to enhance the distinctive features of the preserve which include a sparkling quarry lake, unique rock formations, scenic overlooks and rugged terrain. The 275-acre park also offers bike, paddleboard and canoe rentals and is the perfect way to spend a

beautiful Knoxville morning or afternoon. LGBT Nightlife in Knoxville is enjoyable, however not necessarily convenient. The city’s gay bars and clubs are spread out, making bar hopping a bit difficult and definitely unsafe if you choose to enjoy a few adult beverages. I recommend choosing one or two destinations per night. Favorite hotspots among the locals include Club XYZ, Club eXile, Sassy Ann’s and The Carousel II, a two-story complex boasting a sunken dance floor, huge performance stage and nightly entertainment. Knoxville is a great weekend getaway which offers a variety of experiences. If you have never been, be sure to visit for Knoxville Pride June 23 . For more information, go to www.knoxville.org OUT Destinations is part of OUTreach Public Relations, a company specializing in LGBT marketing. Founded by Joey Amato, OUTreach PR has quickly become one of the most sought after companies for firms looking to target the ever growing and affluent LGBT consumer.
