Perhaps it is just me, but wouldn't it be easier to make individual 
mysql queries for each different act type? That would make the sorting 
-much- easier. I'm not sure if that's an option, but if it is, I'd 
consider exploring it. 
 
select * from activities where act_date >= NOW() && act_type_id = 1 
 
or something of that nature.
