Residential drug rehab centers are places that offer specialized treatment on site. This type of facility is good for someone who suffers a severe addiction and cannot trust their own will to resist falling into the habit again. Drug rehabilitation is a professional field that requires proper training and education to ensure that those people needing help will have qualified treatment providers.
Drug Treatment encompasses several modalities of therapy both clinical and pyschological. Centers that specialize in drug addiction rehabilitation staff these facilities with counselors, psychologists, detox specialists, and medical personnel who are trained to deal with the withdrawal.
California Drug Rehab centers have very specialized treatment that includes group counseling. This is a very effective form of therapy and shows the greatest progress in recovery. Group therapy is a trademark in most California drug rehab centers because these facilities recognize the effectiveness. Incorporated with the other support techniques, centers like Michael's House offer comprehensive treatment to treat the whole individual. Addiction is a learned behavior pattern so the objective is to teach alternative behavior patterns and responses to stress or the triggers that put someone in this state of dependency. Rehab institutions gear their programs to teach people how to change this addiction pattern.
If you or someone that you love suffers from any kind of drug or alcohol addiction, there is hope. Advancements in medicine, nutrition, counseling and communications offers modern treatment centers dynamic therapy regimens to really help the addicted person quit. Don't try to go it alone and suffer because you fail to overcome. Instead, find help at a reputable Drug Treatment Center. There are many locations in California that offer multiple types of treatment including residential care, outpatient, group therapies, and alternative programs. Find one that suits your needs and let Michael's House help you access the information that will put you on the road to recovery.

Mr Gibbs was picked up by the Police along the highway. Police thought the dog was a hit and run victim so they took him to the vet. The veterarinarian does not think he was hit, rather, a stray for awhile, probably broke his chain. She feels he was probably tied outside most of his life. He has a bad foot, so he limps on his right side. His estimated age is between 6 and 8 years old. He is thought to be a collie, lab and possibly shepard mix. He is very gentle, and loving, and starved for attention.
Call now at 814-943-3180 if you want to adopt Mr. Gibbs. Angels for Gabriel is screening the calls so the veterinarian doesn't get bombarded with phone calls. We will connect you with the Vet if you pass our screening. Everyone who has been touched by this beautiful canine soul wants the very best for our new friend. You can call us between 9:30 am and 9:00 pm. If no one answers, please leave a message, name and phone number where we can return your call.

Houston is a Vast City to Newcomers
Posted by TheMidnightWriter at Tuesday, November 03, 2009Relocating is a bit intimidating for the first timer. I remember very well so I want to share some helpful information to any one facing this event in their lives.
About twenty - four years ago, I packed my bags and left my hometown for the first time for Houston, Texas. It was my dream city even though I knew very little about it except what I saw on the tv shows and movies. Of course, that was romanticized. Nothing prepared me for the challenges I would face finding an apartment or house in the city. Houston apartments were so vast and huge compared to the complexes and small units in Pennsylvania. It was a total culture shock to me when I saw the giant skyscraper buildings and tenement apartments in the city that seemed to stretch the entire city block.
Houston luxury apartments fill this huge city and add beauty to the fantastic Houston skyline. I wondered how in the world I would find an apartment in such a vast place. Even more, how would I afford one? The apartment locator rental service steered me in the right direction to places that fit into my price range. The staff made calls to landlords and apartment managers for me to set appointments and to handle rental applications. I even had the opportunity to receive guided tours of several places before I chose one. If I had it to do again, I would use this service.
I had no idea how to find a place so I turned to an apartment locator for help. They had me settled into an apartment that fit all my needs within a couple days. The city was so large and I didn't know my way around. Without help, I would have given up. Don't put yourself in that daunting position. Call upon the professionals who specialize in relocation and locating apartments.
Business.com is a great directory to find just about any type of service available to business professionals and people who travel for business. Try using this resource when you need to find a unique service.

Settling in for a Long Winter's Nap
Posted by TheMidnightWriter at Monday, November 02, 2009Coupons will save Money on Holiday Shopping
Posted by TheMidnightWriter at Monday, November 02, 2009The holidays are upon us and the Christmas shopping season is set to begin. If you're like me, saving money is a plus for your budget especially during the Christmas holiday. All those gifts that you want to buy for your friends and loved ones can really add up and put a big strain on your cash flow. Smart shoppers use coupons all the time but how many people know about using online coupons from the internet? I'm so excited about it that I wanted to share my great find to get me started on Christmas shopping and saving money at the same time.
Visit one website that I found recently called savings.com and watch the video to learn how it all works. Coupons are easy to download right from the website. The Coupons are good for products and services of all kinds. Save money on purchases made on all major brands, products, services and just about anything you can imagine. Get those Santa letters out and start making your shopping wish lists for all the good boys and girls on your list this year. The key here is to save money and buy more for your money this Christmas and all year long.
The holidays present a special opportunity to give unique gifts like a day on the golf course for your Dad with one of his golfing buddies. Now this is an elite sport so use golf coupons to lower the cost. Are you getting excited yet? My brother in law plays golf every Sunday so I have him in mind for this savings.
When you shop for yourself or the ladies in your life, you want to buy something special for Christmas or a birthday or anniversary. Some fashions are a little too steep unless you can save a large enough percentage of the total cost. For example, I love some of the name brand fashion lines for women so I look for Lane Bryant Coupons. The savings are great and there are plenty of store outlets where the coupons can be redeemed. As for the golf day gift, check the listing for a golf course near you and be sure to tell your loved one if they need to drive very far!
The internet is a great place to find all sorts of Business Information. The resources are vast and impressive. As for this online coupon site, you really need to see it for yourself to believe it. Hundreds of brands and thousands of products span its pages along with stores most commonly located at shopping malls and plazas. Included in the vast listings are travel discounts on airfare and kids toys or clothing, books, videos, clothing, electronics and more. Bookmark this site and tell your friends about it. Swap information about great coupon savings and let me know if you find some great irresistible deals on Christmas items for children and angels.
Have a wonderful Christmas and please come back to let us know how much you saved with coupons this year!

Ministry Relocated to Pennsylvania for One Year
Posted by TheMidnightWriter at Thursday, September 10, 2009This may come as a surprise to a lot of people who know Cephas and me because we have continually traveled for fourteen years together. The longest stop we had was a six month stay in Mount Shasta, California in 2003. While it was great fun living in such a spectacular place, the road called us to embrace yet another mission.We're not sure why the Holy Spirit brought us "home" to the place of my birth, but we are positive it is connected to working with family and meeting new people in my hometown. Cephas and I are anxious to strengthen our roots with our family so we'll be focusing that effort from a stationery home in Altoona for one year. Beyond one year, we don't know what will happen.
If you are unfamiliar with our ministry work aside from the angels for Gabriel campaign, visit our website at Angels of The Light. Keep in mind that the website has not been updated in awhile, so bear with us as we play catch up. We've been in town less than two weeks and just rented a house two days ago, so we're still moving in, cleaning and unpacking and grounding ourselves.
We'll be posting updates on the stories about Gabriel and on the new foundation in his name Angels for Gabriel. Watch for a lot of work being done through Jesus Christ in honor of this little soul who has returned to be with Him.
Our dear sister Jan is very ill and needs some intensive surgery, so we'll be writing about this experience and asking for your prayers. We want to launch an angels campaign in her honor. Please mail cards to her now at Angels of The Light Interfaith Ministry, 360 South 4th Avenue PMB 234 Pocatello, Idaho 83201. Mark on the back of the envelope "Angels for Janis" and we'll make sure she receives them. If you want a confirmation or reply, please supply a return address or send your email to angelsforgabriel@gmail.com.
Our foundation will be launched before Christmas so please return here often to watch for updates.
God bless and keep you.

Still Fund Raising for Name Plaque for Gabriel's Grave
Posted by angels for gabriel at Sunday, June 14, 2009Hello to all friends, family and supporters of little Gabriel. It's been a week since I posted on here and that is partly because I am catching my breath and my second wind. The event caught up to me and I felt my own grief over the tragic loss we all suffered when Gabriel drowned.
The other reason that I hesitated to post is that I wanted ample time for the funeral and river photos to be top feature out of respect. I hope you really appreciated the beautiful flowers that some of Gabriel's loved ones took to the site where he crossed over. It was a labor of love indeed.
Here is the update on what's happening. We are still gathering floating donations that are coming by mail and routing them to the cemetery. Some folks are sending money orders directly to the cemetery and I know at least one person sent one directly to Woodstock at his home by my request. We don't know how much has been raised total for the name plaque yet, but I'll call the cemetery tomorrow to find out from Charles. My cell phone does not work on Highway 101 so if you need to reach me, Summer Breeze, or Raven, email us at angelsforgabriel@gmail.com.
I intend to launch a full scale fundraiser again in hopes of raising the total needed to pay off whatever costs remain for the grave plaque. If you want to help in any way, you can send money to the cemetery or donate to paypal at angelsforgabriel@gmail.com. Be sure to write a memo that it is for Gabriel Jaden Coates Memorial Fund. If you want to sponsor an angel fundraiser under our foundation, contact me for instructions.
I'll post any new updates tomorrow.
Thank you all for your love, compassion and support during this heartbreaking time. May the peace of Jesus Christ give us comfort.
