From C2date2grave
This document discusses how car dealerships need to change their sales model from a reactive "cradle to grave" approach to a proactive approach it calls "cradle to date to grave". It proposes dealerships establish business development centers to nurture potential customers from initial research to setting up an appointment with a salesperson. The BDC would continue following up with customers after the sale to strengthen loyalty. Making this change from waiting for customers to actively seeking new prospects is difficult for dealerships but necessary for their survival in today's more informed buyer environment.
12/05: ARTBA DBE “Listening Session” Statement
Rich Juliano of the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) testified at a US Department of Transportation listening session on proposed changes to the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program. He expressed concern that the proposed changes would undermine successful state DBE programs and exacerbate existing problems in others. ARTBA conducted a survey of nearly 300 contractor members and found that 91% anticipated increased bid costs from DBE documentation requirements, 97% anticipated added costs for good faith effort waivers, and 98% expected extra costs from replacing non-performing DBE subcontractors. The survey also found that 42% of contractors expected to bid less on federal-aid work as a result of the proposed changes, including 56

Helen Oakwater: Does lack of truth telling destabilise a child's life journey?Lastensuojelun Keskusliitto
The mismatch between a child’s sensory memory of their maltreatment in infancy and the story they are subsequently told about their early life creates long term confusion and feelings of shame which frequently derails them.
We know ”the body keeps the score” (Bessel Van Der Kolk) yet adults often tell children a sanitised and saccharine version of their past, in the mistaken belief that this will protect the child. It doesn’t. The child has experienced life from inside their own bodies while looking though their own eyes. This is the data they will use to make meaning of themselves and the world. What they need from adults is confirmation of the harsh truth, fresh perspectives and ongoing support to comprehend and integrate the knowledge.
Helen Oakwater, Coach, Trainer and WriterEducated for Motherhood: natural instincts versus expert advice
Although motherhood is something that all women are ‘expected’ to do it is only considered ‘natural’ and ‘normal’ when achieved within the so-called ‘right’ sexual, social and economic circumstances. Similarly, mothering is often thought to be based on instinct but at the same time mothers-to-be and mothers are expected to listen to and follow expert opinion and advice. In this paper Gayle Letherby explores the pressures and tensions surrounding the, at times contradictory, expectations of women who mother.
CFOCMay-Jun09
This document provides a summary of an interview with Melissa Meyer, a Tsimshian healer and wellness coach, about healing from residential school trauma and Indigenous child development. Some key points:
- Residential schools had massive impacts on Melissa's and her husband's families in terms of parenting and bonding. This intergenerational trauma still affects families today.
- The Prime Minister's apology was an important first step in lifting the "blanket of silence" and allowing survivors to start healing.
- As a healer, Melissa's work focuses on helping people change their perspective to view traumatic experiences as opportunities for growth and lessons.
- Melissa and her husband are consciously raising their children with both their
Stolen AngelsExcerpts
This story describes a mother's experience giving birth to her baby boy, Alexzander, only to have him pass away from SIDS shortly after. Though excited to finally meet her baby after a long pregnancy, her joy was short-lived as Alexzander died in his sleep that night. The mother is devastated by the loss of her son and finds herself weeping inconsolably like Rachel in the Bible, who lost her children. Losing a baby to SIDS is a tragedy no parent expects or is prepared for.
Motherhood And Motherhood
- Michele Song was put up for adoption by her birth mother, Judie Randall, in hopes of giving her a better life.
- After 13 years of petitioning, Song was able to get some non-identifying information about her birth parents from a social worker.
- Song then wrote an impulsive letter to Randall without including a salutation, as she was nervous about Randall's reaction and didn't want to scare her away from meeting.

The Nuclear Family as Self Fulfilling Prophesy: Representations of Kin in TV ...
The Nuclear Family as Self Fulfilling Prophesy: Representations of Kin in TV ...ParentingCultureStudies
In this seminar I will be exploring representations of grandmothers and other kin in TV parenting programmes. Grandmothers exist just one step outside the nuclear family. They could therefore more accurately be described as kin, or existing within kinship networks, that existing in ‘The Family’. As such, the presence of a Grandmother in a family home can, theoretically, act as a disrupter and threat to strict interpretations and definitions of the family based on modern nuclear family ideals. In this paper I will be arguing that within Reality Television Parenting Programmes this is exactly what happens, and results in a presentation of grandmothers in passive and negative terms only, the most dominant two being Grandmother as interfering but incompetent and Grandmother as helpless victim.
In contrast, discussions with focus groups show audiences with a complex interpretation of these messages, underplayed by a very different concept of family roles with clearly acknowledged space for grandmothers.More Related Content

ELEVATION: The Divine Power Of The Human Being Kelly Marie Kerr
This book decodes the metaphors and symbols used in the King James version of Revelation with the aid of mystical insights and the corroboration of the latest scientific discoveries and theories. The interpretations given within this book focus on the chemistry and anatomy of the miraculous human body, and the bodies powerful electromagnetic energy which fluctuates according to one's psychological and emotional health.
"For nothing in secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither anything hid, that shall not become broad." Luke 8:17 (KJV) - meaning, nothing is concealed that will not be made known! And NOTHING IS HIDDEN THAT WILL NOT BE EXPOSED!
Everyone knows that the most famous literary masterpieces are metaphorical, and The King James Book of Revelation is no exception. King James created a cinematic masterpiece with an all-star cast, that would cloud the minds of its readers for centuries to come. With the help of many notorious experts, the mysteries in Revelation have been intricately dissected, inspected and translated to give the clearest, most enriching physical and metaphysical explanations possible. The "coincidences" revealed cannot be denied and these elucidations are not for the faint-hearted.

It notes that there are over 10,500 children in Oklahoma's child welfare system, with 1,600 being infants and toddlers, and on average these babies will live in 5 places before their first birthday due to a shortage of regular foster homes. The Foundation exists to improve lives of babies in foster care by addressing this problem.

This document provides an introduction and overview of the book "The First Forty Days" which discusses the importance of the postpartum period and provides guidance and recipes for new mothers.

It includes favorite recipes for healing soups, meals and teas to support physical recovery and mental well-being.
