PUT YOUR CAR KEYS BESIDE YOUR BED AT NIGHT
Tell your spouse, your children, your neighbors, your parents your Dr office, the check-out girl at the market, everyone you meet.
Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.
This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this:
It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are the burglar/rapist won't stick around... <>
After a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there ....
This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime.

Meaningful Article 001
I came across some very meaningful article few days ago when i am organizing my newspaper cutting... Well, good thing is to share... So here it goes:
Title:人生的积极面与消极面
一个人一生的成败,人生观要决定一大半. 人生观有两种,一种是积极的人生观,另一种是消极的人生观.
有一则到非洲卖鞋的故事.
甲乙两家鞋子的调查员同时到非洲调查市场,他们看到非洲男女老幼都不穿鞋子,两人各打了一份电报回总公司.
甲公司调查员的电报内容是:"毫无希望,这里没人穿鞋."
乙公司调查员的内容是:"这里每个人都需要鞋子,大有可为."
同样是一双没穿鞋的脚,从消极面去看毫无希望;从积极面去看则大有可为.
美国知名的教育家巴士卡力告诉我们一则真实的故事.
有一个垂死的妇人写信给出巴士卡力,说她身患重病,正等待死神降临.巴士卡力回信劝她,与其等死,不如去儿童医院看看那些得了绝症的孩子们.
妇人接受他劝告,立刻到医院去.
孩子问她:"你也即将死亡吗?"
妇人点点头.
孩子又问:"你恐惧死亡吗?"
妇人又点点头.
孩子笑着说:"你就要上天堂,马上可以见到上帝了,有什么好怕的."
妇人恍然大悟,从此不再恐惧死亡将至.
如果您像那位妇人一样,正陷于困境或绝处,请问您看到的,是天堂?还是地狱呢?
