This information is designed for NAMI leaders interested in learning more about funding to bring the Parents and Teachers as Allies (PTasA) program into their state or community.
If you have not yet been trained in the Parents and Teachers as Allies program and are interested in learning about training and implementing the program, please contact Maura Bulger, program manager for NAMI Education, Training and Peer Support Center, at firstname.lastname@example.com. To learn more about program content, please visit the Parents & Teachers as Allies section of the Child & Adolescent Action Center website.
There are numerous resources available to learn about funding for the PTasA program. NAMI leaders who have implemented the program have helped to identify several strategies that have been effective, including the following:
Once a possible grantor is identified, NAMI leaders recommend taking the following action steps:
Many grant funders require the grantee to maintain lots of data, including tracking staff hours spent on the project, expenses, and outcomes. Therefore, it is critical to ensure that your NAMI organization has the capability and capacity to collect and store any required data. If not, you may need to identify other organizations to partner with in order to successfully meet the terms of the grant. Grantors appreciate programs and activities that connect nonprofit groups together that have similar visions and goals so you may want to emphasize how you will collaborate with school groups and other nonprofit groups in your community.
NAMI partnered with the University of Maryland to evaluate the PTasA program. The program has received extremely high marks and praise from school professionals in all of the schools in which it has been delivered. We recommend that you use the PTasA Evaluation Report for the program to interest schools in the program and with potential funders. If you would like an electronic copy of the PTasA Evaluation Report to share with funders, please email Maura Bulger, program manager for NAMI Education, Training and Peer Support Center, at email@example.com. Grantors want to know that they are funding an effective program so this evaluation report adds great value to your grant application. Other points to consider when making the case for a grantor to fund the PTasA program include:
Whenever possible, you should include specific data about the performance of students with mental illnesses in your state and community.
In order to seek continued funding once the initial grant funds run out, share with the funder that data shows that the initial funds received were used to support and expand an effective program that produced the anticipated positive outcomes. NAMI leaders should use the data from their PTasA Satisfaction Surveys and Pre/Post Assessments that are completed by audience members during the PTasA presentations to prove that the funded program achieved the anticipated objectives and goals (often outlined in the grant proposal) and that it is an effective program that is worth funding.
Below are grant proposals shared with us by NAMI leaders who are active with the PTasA program. They may serve as useful examples as you draft your own grant proposals.
Example Grant Proposal #1
A grant proposal that was presented to a Home and Community Care Foundation; $15,250 was awarded for PTasA with this grant proposal.
Example Grant Proposal #2
A grant proposal that includes information about the objectives, method of implementation, target group, expected benefits and results, budget, and resources regarding the PTasA program.
Example Grant Proposal #3
A proposal to a local community foundation. Funding was received and used to pay for training, presentation equipment, resources, and other materials.
Example Grant Proposal #4
A collaborative proposal between a NAMI Organization and another association seeking funding from a county behavioral health department.

The price of being on top?
January 10, 2013 in Cricket
Jake White had it when he turned the Springboks into the number one team in the World. Over his 4 year stint, there was always this blemish on his record, according to some. Peter de Villiers didn't come off unscathed either. Even though the Springboks dropped in the rankings, the fact that they were in the spotlight since White's era, made it impossible for Divvy to escape the scathing criticism. Meyer has also come under the whip during his short stint sofar for the very same reason. Read the rest of this entry →

I shouldn't be feeling this optimistic after a series loss to Arizona. But I am. Partially, probably, because the Dodgers lost last night to San Diego, which is even worse than losing to Arizona. So that's good. And I maintain that I think the Giants are doing a lot of things right at the moment. Sure, they got no-hit into the seventh last night and the pitching staff is kind of yawning and saying, Is this over yet? but none of that changes the fact that they've held onto a four game lead with the Dodgers coming in tomorrow night. The Dodgers can't take a division lead no matter what happens this weekend, remember?
Vogey is this close to taking a nap right there in the dugout. Man after my own heart.
The Chosen One is facing Tim Lincecum tomorrow, as well, in a funny turn of events. He sadly does not bear a great resemblance (read: no resemblance at all) to the Best Chosen One Ever – Luke Skywalker, of course – but he was supposed to bring balance to The Force and stuff when he came to LA, so it should be interesting to see what he does, facing the opponent in this pennant. I think I promised not to use "interesting" in relation to Tim Lincecum again, so just intuit how I feel about him, okay?
Okay, maybe a teensy resemblance.
Lastly, to people who are saying the NL West is the new AL East… you're probably the same people who say pink is the new black every season. No. Just no. Pink will never replace black and the NL West will be never the AL East. Particularly not with the Giants as the Red Sox. I mean, to add insult to injury. Couldn't we at least be the Yankees? Couldn't a sensible color like blue be the new black?
Diamond Girl
p.s. Since there seems to have been a rash of on-field fights across Major League Baseball, now seems like a good moment to break out the, "Peace out! And check out my ump-themed tote!" photo.

PredPol on Current TV with Santa Cruz Crime Analyst Zach Friend (2013 January) |
"Science fiction has become science fact" as Santa Cruz, California, crime analyst Zach Friend explains to former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm why his city of 60,000 people was the first to deploy the latest in crime deterrence technology --- and saw a 19% drop in burglaries in the first six months of use. Predicting crime is not the same as simply visualizing past crime by putting dots on a map. It's the difference between "rear view mirror" policing and actual forecasts that help police put resources where and when crimes are most likely to occur.

Honda Civic Accessories and Modifications
zoozeek Posts: 32I very much like the new 2008 Civic sedan but for one characteristic: the rear turn lights are red --- as opposed to yellow in the coupe --- and I much prefer yellow turn lights, which I believe are safer (we have two small kids). So I desperately need some help:
If yes, how --- by getting a yellow bulb, by getting a new light cover/lens...?
How expensive (or, hopefully, cheap) is this?
Thanks greatly in advance to anyone who can help. (I'm not much of a technical person, as you can see.) -
kork13 Posts: 90Yes, you can definitely change out those lights. The light itself is just a regular white bulb, so what you're actually out to replace is the cover (though you may be forced to just change the entire light assembly... don't know).
Although a normal auto parts store probably wouldn't have what you need in stock, they might have a catalog of some sort that you could get it from... Otherwise, there are many online aftermarket parts suppliers, they should have something that will work for you better. -
jet10000 Posts: 656I have not been on this forum in several years since I bought my last Honda. At that time, there was an internet site where you could get discounted prices for new honda accessories. Does anyone have the internet address for this site? Thanks.
Try collegehillshonda.com. They have pretty good prices on Honda accessories. -

kork13 Posts: 90I also have the '07 Si, and I'm 21 so I completely understand what you're talking about. However, the honda link is definitely not worth the money, IMHO... I've also heard that they have recently developed problems with it, due to updates Apple have made to the iPod and iTunes software.
What I do (and would recommend to him) is to set his iPod in the little space between the stick and the cupholders. You can place it in there so that it'll stay firmly in place even when you press the buttons, and you can easily see the screen from the driver's seat with just a quick glance.
From there, if he makes a favorite playlist and sets his iPod to play that while he's driving, he can listen to all of his favorite songs, still drive with his attention on the road, and if he doesn't want to listen to a specific song, it's a quick (<.25 second) glance and a button press to skip to the next song. -

shipo Posts: 9,152Uhhh, it depends upon whether you want a factory new engine, a rebuilt engine, have your own engine rebuilt, or are using an operable used engine from say a bone yard, I'm thinking that you can probably do the bone yard engine for well under $2,000 (including the cost of the engine).
Best Regards,

schwindt Posts: 1I just bought a new 2008 Civic LX Coupe and am looking for sheepsking seat covers - the seat material on the bolsters looks like it will wear out pretty quickly. Does anyone have any experience or recommedations on covers that will work with the side air bags? In Google searching, it looks like www.misssideless.com seems to have a good product, but not much in the way of colors. I particularly like that they use straps and buckles to attach the covers - I have had two sets previously with the standard bungee hooks under the seats, and the elastic wears out pretty quickly. If anyone has any recommendations, I would love to hear your opinions. Thanks!
woodchuckchuck Posts: 2I bought my 2008 Civic Hybrid the end of March, and I am still very happy with my choice. The only thing the Prius has over the Civic is the hatchback, which I really wish Honda would consider. I am getting consistently over 47mpg actual (computed when I fill up), while my gauges tell me somewhat less. I commute 40 miles each way, and the guys at work seem very curious about my new ride. Most of them drive macho pickemups like I used to, and seem envious at my cheap gas budget. When I first drove it into my garage the day I bought it, I saw my little homemade sailboat standing in the corner and realized I would have a tough time getting it to the lake 1/2 mile away without my old truck. I asked the dealer about using it to tow a 4x8 light trailer like you would find at Home Depot. He referred me to our local Toys 4 Trucks, who found a hitch for "all" civic models to 2008 for $165 which I could bolt it on myself. I intend to use a trailer infrequently for taking yard waste to the dump, my sailboat to the water, picking up and delivering antique furniture for my refinishing business or dragging my dead motorcycle home if I need to. Nothing more than 1000 lbs including the trailer. There is a plastic pan under the rear which I would have to remove or modify if I were to attach the hitch. I certainly don't want to void any warrantees. Has anyone had any experience towing with a Civic Hybrid?
redflea Posts: 16Itchy fingers, couldn't wait, ordered from Manchester Motorsports.
Four door guards: $55
Trunk cargo net: $32
Trunk cargo tray: $87.50
Looked like good prices -

daddydave Posts: 2I have been looking for door sills for my 2007 Si coupe and have yet to find a supplier. According to College Hills Honda podcasts (pretty good source of information), the Australian company that makes after-market sills for the Civic sedans doesn't make a version for the coupe because the Civic coupe is not available in Australia. The sedan sills are too wide to fit the coupe sills. I have seen aluminum door sills (check www.yospeed.com), but they are currently out of stock. In e-mail exchange, I was told they plan to have more next month. I'll let you know... In the meantime, I'd appreciate hearing from other searchers. It is hard to believe that with all the Civic after-market suppliers, there apparently any after-market suppliers for the coupes.
jimmyriggg Posts: 4Ive had engines replaced many times, honda are cheap engines from a pick an pull yard Around $150 for the block and labor can be any where from around 10 hours to what ever they want, now if you know sombody who works at there own place on vehicles or if you know sombody who will fix it at your house then its going to be cheap. I had one put in an 88 civic hatchback, from a yard, engine and laybor was atotal of $500.or another way is a crate motor from japan,, they have 30,000 miles on them.Useing a crate motor is like buying a brand new motor it can be any where from about $1800 to $3800, depends on motor, then laybor on top. i would say it could Be any ware from $800 to $2500 used motor. and at least $3000 for a crate job

Hello from Janesville, Wisconsin!
Hello from Janesville, Wisconsin!
I know where Janesville is! I did live in WI until about 7 years ago - now I'm in No. California. I was born and raised in Milwaukee and lived the last 14 years before I moved to CA in Watertown. My kids and their families are both still back there. Youngest son is still in Watertown and my oldest is in Stevens Point. I come back there 2-3 times a year to visit and in fact I'll be there in early June this year.
I'm in the Amery area ... other end of I-94 and north a bit ... closer to the Twin Cities
I live closer to the Twin Ports area near the big pond we call Lake Superior. First snowfall this morning for 2009. I miss the summer already.
I'm in Franklin, just outside of Milwaukee
Hiya! I've only been here for 2 years. I've lived in Georgia most of my life so don't be surprised if soon I'm posting from somewhere else like Erica is. :)
Hello! I'm from Cumberland, WI. Are you enjoying are wonderful Wisconsin weather? I saw snow today

Mumbai-Terror Strikes Dominate India's Diplomatic Parleys
December 24, 2008 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Nilofar Suhrawardy, MMNS India Correspondent
NEW DELHI: Diplomatic impact of Mumbai terror strikes has not been confined to the West, particularly the United States. The last week was marked by the issue being discussed between India and visiting dignitaries from countries closer, geographically than the US. The Mumbai-issue dominated the press conference addressed by Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Mohammad Mehdi Akhoundzadeh before concluding his India visit (December 19). During his visit, Akhoundzadeh held discussions with Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon. India and Iran discussed tragic Mumbai incident, deteriorating situation in Afghanistan and Iraq," Akhoundzadeh said at the press conference.
The two sides also discussed Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI) gas pipeline project as Mumbai-attacks have raised India's concern about its security. "We have expressed readiness on part of our country to take forward the project, the sooner the better," Akhoundzadeh said. "We are expecting a response from India and Pakistan," he added. On whether Mumbai-case has had any negative impact on it, Akhoundzadeh said: "This century is a century of Asia, with Asian capacities flourishing. The growing need for Asia is to meet increasing demand for gas." "We feel that there are attempts from foreign powers, who do not welcome this project, to torpedo it. We feel leadership in Asia should be vigilant to look into their future demands," he said. Referring to Mumbai case, he said that terrorism "should not deter the will and determination" of Asian countries to move ahead with project.
On Iran's stand regarding Pakistan-based terrorists being responsible for Mumbai-case, Akhoundzadeh said: "It does not matter from which place they are. They should be dealt with iron hand." "Terrorists have no religion, no patriotic value. India and Pakistan have proved in past few years that they have maturity to deal with terrorist cases. We should be coolheaded. Whoever is behind it (Mumbai-case), the leadership of both countries should not fall victims to designs of terrorists," Akhoundzadeh said. He pointed to leaders in both countries having fallen victims to terrorists, including Mahatma Gandhi, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi and Benazir Bhutto.
"No genuine Islamic individual would dare to endorse terrorism," Akhoundzadeh said when asked on Islamic States' stand on terrorism.
To a question on whether Indo-Pak dispute on Kashmir was root cause of terrorism in the region, Akhoundzadeh said that "growing sense of insecurity" in Afghanistan could be linked with it. With those (United States) who had "promised stability and development" to Afghanistan having failed, the State "could be the breeding ground for more terrorism," he said.
The brief visit of Oman's Foreign Minister Yusuf Bin Alawai Bin Abdullah was the first from a Gulf country since the Mumbai attack. During his meeting with Mukherjee, Abdullah "expressed deep condolences at the loss of life in the Mumbai terror attacks and solidarity with the people of India" (December 16). Abdullah noted: "There can be no excuse for not dismantling the infrastructure of terrorism across the Indian border." Abdullah's visit followed the landmark visit of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Oman last month. Mukherjee expressed appreciation on the telephonic call made by Abdullah soon after the Mumbai attack. He also apprised Abdullah of the results of ongoing investigations, which clearly point to "complicity of elements in Pakistan."
During the two-day meeting of India-Russia Joint Working Group on Combating International terrorism, the Russian side "strongly condemned" the terrorist attacks in Mumbai and "reiterated their solidarity to the government and people of India." "Both sides underlined their shared concerns on the growing threat of cross-border terrorism and reaffirmed their commitment for strengthening bilateral cooperation against terrorism," according to a joint statement released on the two-day meeting (December 17).
Vivek Katju, Special Secretary in External Affairs Ministry led the Indian side, while the Russian delegation was led by Anatoly Safonov, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for International Cooperation in the Fight against Terrorism and Transnational Crime.
During the talks held in "an atmosphere of mutual understanding and trust," India and Russia described their "cooperation in combating terrorism" as an important part of their "strategic partnership." Giving stress to importance of "international efforts to prevent and fight terrorism" including the United Nations' Global Counter Terrorism Strategy and relevant UN Security Council Resolutions, they "underlined the need for expeditious conclusion of negotiations leading to finalization of India sponsored Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism (CCIT) at the UN General Assembly."
India and Russia pointed out to "curbing financing of terrorism" as a "key component of counter terrorism strategy." They also expressed concern at spread of narcotics in the region, which "directly threatens the security of both countries." "They agreed on the need to further consolidate bilateral efforts for sharing information and expanding cooperation against drug-trafficking." They noted the "growing threat of use of cyber-space by terrorists in their activities and the need to cooperate in this field," according to the joint statement. They also agreed to "expand the exchange of information, experience and cooperation in the means of countering terrorism."
The Mumbai-case was also raised during talks between Albania's Foreign Minister Lulzim Basha and his Indian counterpart Mukherjee (December 19). Basha was the first foreign minister from Albania to visit India (December 17-20). Albania, Basha conveyed, fully shared India's sense of outrage at the Mumbai attacks and considered terrorism as a common challenge for the international community.

Exactly what we wanted, matches our set perfectly and much cheaper that anywhere else. Great company to deal with and arrived quickly.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This rug looked much prettier and detailed in the online photo. The pattern looks like it runs together. I am not too familiar with synthetic materials for rugs, and was surprised by the low quality of this for the price. In my honest opinion, 3x5 size should be priced more around $25. You can get a nicer looking rug at Target!
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Our rug arrived damaged from the manufacturer. There is a 11" gash that goes completely through that matches a gash on the inside core. Seems to have been done at manufacturer's. We are waiting to see how this will be handled. I have been assured that 100% satisfaction is the goal. I don't expect to pay additional to get this replaced. The rug appears to be very good quality. It is lovely, but the color is more gold and I expected light brown. (nutshell)
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.love the rug!

New facts continue to surface about the land that houses the city of Cleveland's most historic source of water.
In June, the City Council delayed a vote to sell the site located at 283 1st St. N.W., next to Superior Cleaners. The historical significance of the building is due to a spring that exists underneath the structure.
The spring — nicknamed "Taylor's Spring" — was the deciding factor in where the city of Cleveland was established in 1837 and was originally owned by Cleveland's first settler, Andrew Taylor.
Taylor eventually left Cleveland forever after becoming the subject of a lawsuit with the federal government, but memories of Taylor's Spring continue to surface.
Maxine Gannaway Hyde, a teacher at Bradley Central High School for 30 years until her retirement, said the property that contains the spring was a vacant lot when her grandfather, W.C. Gannaway, and father, Jewel F. Gannaway (W.C.'s son), bought the property around 1930 and built the store that housed Gannaway & Son Hardware.
The Gannaway family moved to Cleveland from Dayton in 1910 after the closing of Coker Steel, a major employer at the time. Also making the move to Cleveland in 1910 was Raleigh Abel, who hoped he could find better opportunities in the city that had been named after war hero Benjamin Cleveland.
Raleigh Abel and W.C. Gannaway had been business partners in Dayton but decided to split up when they arrived in Cleveland for reasons that are unknown.
Abel started what would become a popular hardware and furniture business on the town square.
W.C., a harness maker and tanner who dealt in leather goods, opened his first Cleveland business at an unknown location uptown in 1910.
The business was destroyed by fire in 1916 and Gannaway moved to Inman Street in the location that is now Capital Mark Bank.
A move came around 1930, when the Gannaway family bought the Taylor property on 1st Street, according to Hyde's brother, Bob Gannaway, who graduated from Bradley Central High School in 1963.
"I have no idea why my father and grandfather chose that site," said Bob, now 68 years old. "I think it is fascinating that so much history occurred on a piece of land that my family owned, but I never heard anything about it back then."
Hyde, now 80 years old, recalled that, "My father told stories about the spring once supplying water to the whole city and said that a man named Andrew Taylor was involved, but that was it."
Hyde said that before her family began construction on the site, they installed a culvert around the spring and ran a pipe from it to carry off the water.
"The basement was dry at that time," she said. "We stored tools, lumber, and other things down there."
Gannaway said that in 1952, the family began using the Taylor spring to create air-conditioning in the store. W. C. got the idea after Miller's department store became the first business in Cleveland to offer real air conditioning, which was very expensive at the time.
The family did not have the money for a real air conditioner, so W.C. pumped water up from the spring using a shallow well pump. The water was then pumped through two welded-together car radiators and drained back into the spring to get the radiators cold.
"My grandfather had a 30-inch fan that blew through the two radiators and sent cold air all through the store," said Gannaway. "He thought it lowered the temperature by about 10 degrees."
The air conditioning made the Gannaway store the second business in Cleveland to offer the chilled air, which the family thought would help them compete with other hardware stores like Stamper's and Abel's.
"The air conditioning was a big hit with the customers and it was all because of the Taylor's Spring," said Bob Gannaway. "We also used the coil of copper tubing that was attached to the city water supply in another way. The family put the coil in the spring and then the water was piped up to the store's water fountain. This caused the water in the fountain to be the same temperature of the spring water!"
W.C. Gannaway died in 1961.
When Jewel Gannaway lost his leg in 1971, his son Bob moved from Massachusetts and ran the store for two years. The store also began using real air-conditioning in 1971.
Jewel Gannaway died in 1972.
The family eventually closed the store on Nov. 27, 1973, and sold part of the building to Superior Cleaners. Attorney Jim Webb purchased the other part.
The family has since moved on, but the Gannaway legacy is not forgotten. A special video featuring rare photographs of the Gannaway Hardware store in its heyday has been uploaded to YouTube and can be found by searching "Gannaway Hardware Cleveland Tennessee."
Gannaway also has a 100-pound Champion harness stitcher that his grandfather purchased in 1910 from the Champion Shoe Machine Company in St. Louis.
Hyde said her family has remained close with Jim Webb, although Webb no longer owns the building and has retired from his legal practice.
Webb, who served as county attorney for 25 years, donated the building to the city in December 2011. He hoped the building would serve as a new office for the city attorney but the city never found a use for it.
"I bought the building in 1973 for practical reasons, but also because I had family ties to the property," said Webb, now 81. "My great-great-grandfather Ira Webb lived near the land in 1835."
Webb said that when acquired the building, the copper coils left behind by the Gannaway family were still in the spring.
Now in 2013, the Cleveland City Council must decide whether to sell the property or to use it for historical purposes. Webb said he would like to see the area made into a community park.
"We have a statue of Col. Benjamin Cleveland, the city's namesake," said Webb. "Since Col. Cleveland is important enough for a statue, then surely Andrew Taylor is also worthy of a park, so that people can see where history took place."
Webb said he has not been back to the building since the day he moved out, but would gladly return for a community celebration.
"This is as good as history gets — we could have a great park there," said Webb.

Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious public health problem in the United States. Each year, traumatic brain injuries contribute to a substantial number of deaths and cases of permanent disability. In 2010 2.5 million TBIs occured either as an isolated injury or along with other injuries.1
A TBI is caused by a bump, blow or jolt to the head or a penetrating head injury that disrupts the normal function of the brain. Not all blows or jolts to the head result in a TBI. The severity of a TBI may range from "mild," i.e., a brief change in mental status or consciousness to "severe," i.e., an extended period of unconsciousness or amnesia after the injury.
CDC's research and programs work to prevent TBI and help people better recognize, respond, and recover if a TBI occurs.

Curious where you guys are ticklish and how ticklish you are... Also, do you enjoy getting tickled?
Curious where you guys are ticklish and how ticklish you are... Also, do you enjoy getting tickled?
I especially enjoy it when I am tied down.
Ribs the worst.
i have this weird nervous tick when people tickle me,
i back hand them across the face
I'm ticklish on my torso area (i.e. ribs, arm pits, stomach, sides), but strangely not at all on my feet. I hate to be tickled and can get pretty violent if provoked, but I do get off watching videos of others being tickle tortured. *evil grin*
I am very ticklish. Feet, underarms, tummy, ribs,
Absolutely everywhere, I have yet to find a part of my body that isn't somewhat ticklish. If my boyfriend starts on my most sensitive areas first (Neck, Ears, Nipples, Underarms), especially using his tongue, that just accentuates the ticklishness of the rest of my body and I'm his bitch for the night, ahaha.
I'd rather soft tickling/touching to work me up, then once I'm at maximum sensitivity he can pretty much just touch the tip of my cock with his tongue and I'll blow.
Rough tickling can be fun too, but in smaller doses.
Here are my ticklish spots:
[1] Navel - I love sticking things in it.
[2] Waist - It's a remote connection to my navel.
[3] Neck - I love sitting in a deep tub and the feel of water lapping my neck and shoulders.
Feet for sure

The creatures placed in the upper world called on to praise the Lord. (1-6) Also the creatures of this lower world, especially his own people. (7-14)
Verses 1-6 We, in this dark and sinful world, know little of the heavenly world of light. But we know that there is above us a world of blessed angels. They are always praising God, therefore the psalmist shows his desire that God may be praised in the best manner; also we show that we have communion with spirits above, who are still praising him. The heavens, with all contained in them, declare the glory of God. They call on us, that both by word and deed, we glorify with them the Creator and Redeemer of the universe.
Verses 7-14 Even in this world, dark and bad as it is, God is praised. The powers of nature, be they ever so strong, so stormy, do what God appoints them, and no more. Those that rebel against God's word, show themselves to be more violent than even the stormy winds, yet they fulfil it. View the surface of the earth, mountains and all hills; from the barren tops of some, and the fruitful tops of others, we may fetch matter for praise. And assuredly creatures which have the powers of reason, ought to employ themselves in praising God. Let all manner of persons praise God. Those of every rank, high and low. Let us show that we are his saints by praising his name continually. He is not only our Creator, but our Redeemer; who made us a people near unto him. We may by "the Horn of his people" understand Christ, whom God has exalted to be a Prince and a Saviour, who is indeed the defence and the praise of all his saints, and will be so for ever. In redemption, that unspeakable glory is displayed, which forms the source of all our hopes and joys. May the Lord pardon us, and teach our hearts to love him more and praise him better.
Psalms 148:1-14 . The scope of this Psalm is the same as that of the preceding.
1. heavens [and] heights--are synonymous.
2. hosts--(compare Psalms 103:21 ).
4. heavens of heavens--the very highest.
waters--clouds, resting above the visible heavens (compare Genesis 1:7 ).
5. praise the name--as representing His perfections.
he commanded--"He" is emphatic, ascribing creation to God alone.
6. The perpetuity of the frame of nature is, of course, subject to Him who formed it.
a decree . . . pass--His ordinances respecting them shall not change ( Jeremiah 36:31 ), or perish ( Job 34:20 , Psalms 37:36 ).
7-10. The call on the earth, as opposed to heaven, includes seas or depths, whose inhabitants the dragon, as one of the largest (on most destructive and ungovernable agents of inanimate nature are introduced
8. fulfilling his word--or, law, may be understood of each. Next the most distinguished productions of the vegetable world.
9. fruitful trees--or, "trees of fruit," as opposed to forest trees. Wild and domestic, large and small animals are comprehended.
11, 12. Next all rational beings, from the highest in rank to little children.
princes--or, military leaders.
13. Let them--all mentioned.
excellent--or, exalted ( Isaiah 12:4 ).
his glory--majesty ( Psalms 45:3 ).
above the earth and heaven--Their united splendors fail to match His.
14. exalteth the horn--established power ( Psalms 75:5 Psalms 75:6 ).
praise of--or literally, "for"
his saints--that is, occasions for them to praise Him. They are further described as "His people," and "near unto Him," sustaining by covenanted care a peculiarly intimate relation.

Excessive speed makes driving more dangerous, Harmon said.
He said many people drive 10 mph over the speed limit thinking they will not be stopped or given a ticket.
"You are subject to a citation by the Tennessee Highway Patrol after 3 mph over the speed limit," Harmon said. "You need to abide by the speed limit."
The fast pace of today's society leaves people driving faster and more distracted.
"We are trying to do too much stuff in a short amount of time," Harmon said. "In that, our mind is not on the road; we are focused on the things that we are trying to get done," rather than what's going on around us on the roads.
Cellphones also contribute to distracted driving.
"That phone is worse than a drunk driver," Harmon said.
He said no driver should ever drive while under the influence of alcohol.
Wearing a seat belt is a major safety precaution people need to take. It is the law that everyone under the age of 18 and everyone in the front seat has to wear a seat belt, and young children and infants must be properly restrained. Harmon said seat belts save lives and prevent other injuries.
"Everybody in the car needs to wear a seat belt," so that they are not catapulted forward in the event of an accident, the officer said.
In fatal crashes last year in the 12 counties that make up the Chattanooga district, 60 percent were not wearing a seat belt.
"And out of that 60 percent, 50 percent of them would have survived if they would have been wearing their seat belt," Harmon said of safety experts' assessments.
He said it is important to share safety tips with others.
It is also important to drive defensively because so many people drive "offensively," Harmon said.
Driving in the right lane is safer than the left lane because it puts more space between the vehicle and oncoming traffic. An average of 3 feet is the space between opposing lanes of traffic.
"The left lane is made for passing, not driving," Harmon said.
Driving with one's lights on when driving on the highway, even during the day, is another safety precaution.
Locking one's doors while driving is also important, Harmon said. In a crash, doors that are locked tend to stay closed more often than those that are not.
"If you are in a crash and your doors are unlocked, they will pop open ... if your doors come open, you will have more injuries," Harmon said.
He emphasized drivers need to avoid "taking chances while driving."
"Taking chances" includes, for example, trying to turn onto a road at a stoplight quickly to avoid getting behind a school bus, or trying to turn onto a road without properly checking to see if it is clear. He also reminded drivers that motorcycles are harder to spot on the roads than other vehicles.
"You need to be looking twice for those motorcycles, especially on a pretty day," Harmon said.
He reminded Rotarians to make sure their car registration and insurance are in the car together and that the insurance card is the most recent one.

With all-electronic tolls likely coming to the Golden Gate Bridge later this month, bridge officials are feverishly working to get the word out so cash customers are not left flummoxed at the Toll Plaza when the transition occurs.
Testing for the new system has been under way since late January and could go live as soon as March 27.
Thirty percent of drivers who cross the span now pay a $6 cash toll to cross and the race is on to get them to switch to automated FasTrak or "pay by plate" accounts linking their credit cards to a toll accounting system.
But those who want to pre-pay a toll with green bills still have an option: cash payment sites where "Touch-N-Buy" kiosks handle the task. Bridge officials demonstrated the process Friday at the Chevron station at 1320 Second St. in San Rafael.
"People will have to enter their license plate number, that's the one identifier we need," said Mary Currie, bridge district spokeswoman, as she stood near one of the red kiosks. "In Marin this will be the only way to pay cash for a toll."
After entering a license plate number, the user is taken through a series of prompts. Once completed, cash is given to the clerk who provides a receipt. The toll system then records that the toll has been paid. When the driver moves through the Toll Plaza, a camera will recognize the license plate and that the motorist has paid.
The option is intended for people who rarely cross the span. Users can purchase up to three toll crossings and the system can be used to pay other toll balances.
"If someone is a more frequent user we want to push them toward a license plate account," said Jessica Handcock, a consultant with Traffic Technologies Inc., which is working with the bridge district on the project.
Ten of the already existing kiosks in Marin and San Francisco can now handle toll payments and by the end of the month there should be 150 kiosks available, including one at the Roundhouse building at the bridge. The district has established a website — www.goldengate.org/tolls — to provide information to drivers.
Meanwhile, life for those drivers who have FasTrak will remain unchanged; they will continue to pay a discounted $5 to cross the span.
Cameras at the span will be used for a "pay-by-plate" system that will assess tolls based on license plate numbers to the registered owner of the vehicle on file with the state Department of Motor Vehicles. Those users will pay $6 per crossing.
Bills will be mailed, but bridge officials are urging drivers to sign up for FasTrak or open a "pay by plate" account.
Those who rent cars and cross the span should ask their rental company if a convenience-fee tolling program is offered. The majority of rental vehicle companies offer the program and the tolling program is part of the rental agreement.
If the rental company does not offer a tolling program for the bridge, renters should ask how that company assesses tolls. If the company doesn't offer toll payment information renters should make a one-time payment by telephone, online or at a cash payment location, or by opening a limited duration license plate account.
Those from out of state can open a FasTrak account or make a one-time payment up to 30 days before or up to 48 hours after crossing the bridge.
Golden Gate Bridge officials are eliminating 32 toll-taker positions, among other steps, to help bail the district out of a $66 million budget shortfall over the next five years.

Run Crop Pant - BEBE SPORT
I read the reviews before buying the product, but I try not to let others opinions distract me to much; although, I appreciate them. These pants are one of my favorites!!! Very comfortable. They don't come down as much to me like the others said, and they fit me so well! It shows all my curves, which I love! I wear these pants to Kickboxing and had no problems with them coming down a lot. I really need to buy a second pair, so I don't wear out my current pair so quickly.

Great Crop Pants!
I am very happy with my purchase, these crop pants are flattering! They might not be great for working out, but definetelly looking great, if you wanna take a walk and need to wear something sporty. I love the length, not too short, not too long, I am 5.5 and end just couple inches below my knees. (I purchased size M)
March 24, 2013
Like other customers, I'm really disappointed in the new fabric. These capris don't hug your body and stay put like the older befit. Nothing worse for a runner than having to constantly pull them up! Also, I don't find the fabric breathable at all. I won't buy pants from bebe sport any more.

Letting Go Quotes, Sayings about moving on
One of the most difficult situations is deciding whether you should just move on or hold on a little tighter.
And sometimes you just have to forget about that person you once liked and move on.
Giving up doesn't always mean you are weak, sometimes it means you are strong enough and smart enough to let go.
I don't know why I'm still waiting.
You can't start the next chapter if you keep re-reading the last one.
If you still talk about it, you still care.
if you are brave enough to say goodbye life will reward you with a new hello.
– Paula Coehlo
Life becomes easier when you learn to accept an apology you never go.
– Robert Brault
My to-do list for today:
– Count my blessings
– Practice kindness
– Let go of what I can't control
– Listen to my heart
– Be productive yet calm
– Just breathe
You can't reach for anything new if your hands are still full of yesterday's junk.
– Louise Smith
Sometimes you have to let go and be free.
You know why it's hard to be happy? Because you find it hard to let go of the things that make you sad.
Don't look back with regret, look forward with Hope.
Forget your past, forgive yourself and begin again.
Don't let yesterday use up too much of today.
– Will Rogers
Stop holding on to what hurts and make room for what feels good.
Move on, don't let the little things of life hold you back. Forget, forgive, and move on.
Always be strong enough to let go and be smart enough to wait for what you deserve.
The past is nothing but a weight it will build inside of you like a stone.
Don't bother yourself crying for people who leave you. But start loving people who come in to your life to stay.
To taste the sweetness of life, you must have the power to forget the past.
Sometimes you just need to put the past away and move on with your life.
I never stopped caring, but you did, and that's why I've moved on.
I'm not going to stress over you anymore. It isn't worth it. I tried to work something out but you just ignored it. I'm not trying to say I don't want you, because I definitely do. All I'm saying is I'm done chasing after you.
It's so hard to go back a place that's filled with heart breaking memories and people you never wanted to let go of.

The goal of Community Health Status Indicators (CHSI) is to provide an overview of key health indicators for local communities and to encourage dialogue about actions that can be taken to improve a community's health. The CHSI report was designed not only for public health professionals but also for members of the community who are interested in the health of their community. The CHSI report contains over 200 measures for each of the 3,141 United States counties. Although CHSI presents indicators like deaths due to heart disease and cancer, it is imperative to understand that behavioral factors such as tobacco use, diet, physical activity, alcohol and drug use, sexual behavior and others substantially contribute to these deaths (see chart).
In addition to the web pages, community profiles can be displayed on maps or downloaded in a brochure format. The CHSI mapping capability allows users to visually compare similar counties (termed peer counties) as well as adjacent counties with their own county. This feature will be available when the CHSI 2009 mapping update is ready. The downloaded CHSI report allows broad dissemination of information to audiences that may not have access to the internet.
The CHSI report provides a tool for community advocates to see, react, and act upon creating a healthy community. The report can serve as a starting point for community assessment of needs, quantification of vulnerable populations, and measurement of preventable diseases, disabilities, and deaths. The CHSI report is accompanied by a companion document entitled Data Sources, Definitions, and Notes (PDF - 433KB). This document gives detailed descriptions on data estimations, definitions, caveats, methodology, and sources.
To access a community profile, select a state and county name on the left navigation bar and select display data. The demographic characteristics of the selected county will appear as well as its peer counties (if applicable, counties similar in population size and frontier status). To move to another page, select the health indicator section from the list in the left navigation bar. To print the CHSI brochure, select the print report option at the top right-hand corner of the page; do not use the browser print option. To access the CHSI mapping tool, select the mapping option at the top right-hand corner of the page.
