In religion, praise is an impassioned exaltation of God (ie. a Supreme Being, or Creation), typically as an expression of gratitude for one's life or being. In other cases, praise may be tied to more situational aspects .such as health and prosperity. In its common usage praise is the act of making positive statements about a person, object or idea, either in public or privately. Praise is often contrasted with criticism, where the latter is held to mean exclusively negative statements made about something, although this is not technically correct. Most people are responsive to praise and will increase in self-esteem or confidence if a suitable amount of praise is received -- in fact some psychological theories hold that a person's life is comprised largely of attempts to win praise for their actions. Other people are less affected by or even averse to praise, for example people with autism[1] or schizoid personality disorder.[citation needed] using praise with children reward the attainment of speicifed goals not just participation of the child. Do NOT praise uninvolved students for not disrupting the class. Ensure praise being given to the child is deserved. Prasie progress is in relation to individuals past progress NOT compared with others. Praise is an integral part of many religions, for example Christianity and Islam, which hold that God is a supreme being who is worthy of praise. The Biblical book of Psalms is a collection of hymns and poems, many of which praise Yahweh. In Christianity, the word takes on a new meaning, and is understood as a command to either describe God or give a testimony of what God has done. Praise is the fuel of creation.

2. In praise of California
November 14, 2008
In November, 1988, the electorate in California approved Proposition 103 to prevent the massive increases in premiums that were affecting all consumers looking for insurance. After major litigation to decide whether the Proposition was constitutional, it was finally implemented in May 1989 and rapidly revolutionized the rates of insurance across the state which fell by an average of 45% between 1989 and 2001. It is estimated that up to 2006, Californian drivers alone saved $62 billion on their auto insurance rates. Then the Consumer Watchdog combined with other socially active groups to force ...

3. The Popularity of Sherry Sack
November 10, 2008
By the seventeenth century, sack was quite at home in England and was popular with everyone. Moreover, of the many types of sack, Sherris-Sack was thought the best. Thomas Randolph was jovial in his praise, even if he showed little regard to historic truth; but perhaps a hedonist was entitled to disregard it:
"Sacke is the life, soul and spirit of a man, the fire which Prometheus stole, not from Jove's kitchen, but his wine-cellar, to encrease the native heat and radicall moisture, without which we are but drousie dust or dead clay. This is nectar, the very Nepenthe the Gods were drunk wi... (read more)

5. The Content of Received Prayer , and the Bible
November 04, 2008
Personal sin must be removed if God is to “hear” our prayers. “Your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God ... so that He does not hear” (Isa 59:2). The only way our sin problem can be resolved - is by the blood of Christ (See, “The Foundation for Received Prayer and the Bible” for this discussion). Once sin is removed, one would do well to imitate the disciples request; “Lord, teach us to pray ...” (Lk 11:1). That request - if answered - provides hope for being able to place content before God that results in positive activity.
The First Prayer - “Metanoia”

20. Hinduism - Why God Is Praised?
September 19, 2008
Hinduism has a different concept of God than other religions. In Hinduism God is not something different than the world. According to Hinduism all of us are Gods. The whole world is God. the whole world resides in God. It is surprising to say that we are all Gods, but that is the truth in Hinduism. The difference between God and all of us is that we do not realize our true nature because of maya. The emotions and our karmas make a screen that hides our nature. That is why Hinduism lays emphasis on Guru. Guru removes this veil and shows us our true nature.
Most of the Hindu texts praise t... (read more)

21. Is microwave the future of WiFi?
September 19, 2008
WiMax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) isn’t new technology (the WiMax forum was created in 2001 to promote the standard), but it’s only recently that it has made people sit up and pay greater attention. According to Robert Morrow, a retired Air Force Academy electrical engineering professor, WiFi and cellular data are on the way out because the future belongs to WiMax. There are others, however, who are not quite as glowing in their praise of the emerging WiMax technology, and who believe that it will prove too expensive to have any real practical value.

23. Night Time Toilet Training - Tips to Stop Night Time Bed Wetting
September 17, 2008
Some children stay dry at night easily; other take a while to master the habit. If your child still wets the bed, make sure they wear nighttime nappies. Praise is good for dry nights, but never scold your child for a wet bed or talk about his bed-wetting in front of others.
