$25 Billion Made On Housing Market Rescue
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The U.S. Treasury said Monday it made a $25 billion profit on $225 billion invested in mortgage-backed securities during the financial crisis.
The government began selling securities last year that were backed by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp., known as Freddie Mac, and the Federal National Mortgage Association, known as Fannie Mae.
"These [mortgage-backed securities] purchases helped preserve access to mortgage credit during a period of unprecedented market stress," Treasury said in a statement released Monday.
Banks bundle mortgages and sell them as securities, thereby reaping a profit sooner — compared with a typical mortgage length of 30 years.
Banks also use their earnings to make other loans. Therefore, when the securities don't sell, lending dries up.
When the financial crisis hit, banks were suddenly holding on to billions of dollars worth of assets they could not sell — assets referred to as "frozen assets" or "toxic assets."
From Treasury's point of view, unloading these assets as quickly as it did validates the value of the program. The profit is a bonus.
"The successful sale of these securities marks another important milestone in the wind down of the government's emergency financial crisis response efforts," Assistant Secretary for Financial Markets Mary Miller said in a statement.
"This program helped support the housing market during a critical moment for our nation's economy and delivered a substantial profit for taxpayers," he said.

Joe Arsenault is no ordinary Joe.
He�ll turn 80 in January, and just take a look at some of his recent 18-hole golf scores at Monoosnock Country Club: 79, 78, 75, 77. And how about that 72 back in June?
In fact, among Mr. Arsenault�s last 20 scores on his USGA handicap card, 11 have been equal or under his age.
Anyone who plays golf knows how difficult it is to match one�s age in a round. And when accomplished, it�s time for celebration.
In Mr. Arsenault�s case, however, the low scores keep coming so often, it�s become, well, almost expected.
He estimates that he�s equaled or carded a score lower than his age at least 50 times in his golfing career.
And it all began with that remarkable 72, seven years ago. Amazingly, he followed that 72 with another one the next round.
�Joe has the heart of a lion,� said Monoosnock head professional John Novak. �He�s just so dedicated and he enjoys golf, life and his friends so much.�
Mr. Arsenault, who lives in Leominster, said, �I owe a lot to John. Any time I have any problems with my swing, he�s right there for me.�
That swing, with an interesting look-back takeaway, has certainly been on line this summer and fall.
About his game, Mr. Arsenault said, �I chip and putt pretty good, and someone told me I�m hitting the ball as long or longer than I ever have.�
Retired as a tool-and-die mold maker 14 years ago, he golfs just about any day that Monoosnock is open.
Mr. Arsenault began golfing years ago in the mid-1950s, playing at an old nine-hole golf course near Lincoln Street in Worcester.
�It was nine holes after work once a week,� recalled Mr. Arsenault, who has kept in excellent physical shape for decades.
�No major aches and pains, I guess,� he said. �I�ve been lucky.�
He said, �When I was 15 years old, I got a job in a Leominster restaurant washing dishes for 20 cents an hour. I saved my money and bought a bike for $30. The first Sunday I had off, I went for a ride all the way to Worcester, then on to Auburn and out to Oxford. I turned around and came home. I wore that bike out in about three years.�
When he decided to join the military in 1948, he was ready.
In the paratrooper physical fitness test for the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Benning, Ga., recruits needed 250 points to pass. Among 160 candidates, Mr. Arsenault finished among an elite group of four who scored over 400 points.
He served four years in the military, came back to Leominster, settled down for family life and many rounds of golf. This year alone he�s posted 133 scores on his card on the online Golf Handicap and Information Network.
Mr. Arsenault and his wife of 51 years, Anna, have three children, six grandchildren and thousands of treasured memories.
Back in 1977 at Monoosnock, he aced the ninth hole (now the fifth). Another wonderful memory. �That happened on 7-7-77,� Mr. Arsenault said with a smile.
And Mr. Novak smiled too when he said of his star golfer, �It�s just a pleasure having Joe here. He�s a wonderful guy, a good American.�

daftar uber , cara daftar uber.uber Anyone who wants to write better articles for their article marketing campaigns would do well to read articles from other marketers on this subject. Below are some great ideas that will assist you in getting more from your efforts.
Focus on the ads that your readers will be more inclined to read. Adding new content and ads periodically will keep things interesting. Don't be reluctant to show your creativity with different fonts, colors and graphics to focus attention where you want it. It will take time to see what works best, but it'll be worth it in the end.
A great way to attract business is by blogging. Blogging is typically free, and a great way to engage customers. It is simple to start a blog that will be able to attract more customers and visitors to your website and business.
The more time you devote to readin, the better your writing skills will be. Through reading, your comprehension level will increase and your writing will have better flow. Your writing skills are integral, as this will help to find tune them. Read anything you want; just make sure to keep up with reading.
Make sure you post new articles on a regular basis. Search engines base how often they check your site on how often you post new content. The more often you provide new content, the more often your site will be indexed, and the more quickly you will reach new customers.
Don't put too much faith into advice you receive from "experts" of article marketing. Consider that these people earn money by teaching others about article marketing, not through article marketing themselves. This does not mean they have nothing to offer. Just make sure you weigh their opinions carefully.
Always write articles in your native language. A lot can be lost in translation. You might make grammar mistakes with your writing that you normally wouldn't have in your native language. Besides, each culture reacts differently to marketing techniques and what works with an English-speaking audience might not convey a positive image of your business to another audience.
Overuse of keywords is not a good idea. If you pack your content with too many keywords, both search engines and readers will reject you. By staying under the recommended number of keywords, your article will be recognized by search engines more often and the readers shall be much happier.
A compelling title that grabs the reader's attention is almost more important than the content of the article. Weak or uninteresting titles will not grab visitor attention. Titles should be about your topic and should use easy-to-understand language. Let readers know what to expect when they read the full article.
Be sure to stay on topic with your content. Make sure you actually write about something interesting. A sales pitch will drive people away in droves. Search engine algorithms also take this kind of behavior into account when indexing.
Learn all that you can about your target audience. If you're posting on casual blogs, make the content short and sweet. If you want to reach professional readers, the content you use should be lengthier, content-rich and full of strong research.
There are both well-known, obvious ideas and new techniques that most people haven't considered when it comes to article marketing. Hopefully, if you implement the suggestions given here, you can begin doing article marketing or enhance what you already have done.

My Japan trip started on March 8 and because it is an early morning flight and my family is away, I had to camp (yet again) at the airport. Seriously though, I can count the times that I didn't camp at the airport because of the flight schedule. I'm used to sleeping on the airport floors though.
I was on CEB, Flight 5J5054. Check-in and boarding went exactly as promised. Actually, before this flight, I stalked its flight history and saw that it is early or on-time most of the time. Indeed, we left a little behind the schedule but arrived a little earlier at NRT. I didn't have proper sleep this time not to mention that I didn't avail an in-flight meal so to avoid the hunger, I slept during the whole flight. #streetwisetips
SO… I woke up and we are only an hour away to Narita!
After a fast lining up at the immigration and claiming my baggage, I'm off to my journey… TO FIND LUNCH! I was in Terminal 2 and I got lost in NRT finding the '4F Food Court' because apparently its floor is like a mezzanine. It is not connected to the escalators and elevators that you used going up from the arrivals area to the departures area. You have to pass by the check-in counters to go up. So before finding a place to eat, I searched for the post office to get my pocket WiFi. The post office is at the 3rd floor and if you are facing the check-in counters from the departures entrance, it is at your left side. It has this sign- 〒
I had this lunch set at UCC for JPY1200. I discovered that this is expensive.
If you go deeper in this floor by going near the viewing deck, there is a 7-11 konbini (convenience store) where you can buy bento meals that are definitely cheaper than that. Konbinis were my best friends in Japan. I have read that there is a cheaper option for bento meals at bento shops though, but unfortunately I cannot find my way to one.
Afterwards, I went down the floors to get to the train tracks and have my JR Pass exchange order exchanged for an actual JR Pass at the ticketing office which is at the left side coming from the entrance of the train station from the airport.
The staff at the ticketing office is very helpful and she get me reserved tickets from NRT to Atami.
This reserved ticket has an English translation but for the rest of my Japan trip I wasn't able to get an English one again. I missed the Narita Express train to Shinagawa for only about, 2 mins so I have to wait 50mins for the next one. :/ I practically stayed for 2 hours in the airport.
I arrived at Atami station at 15:14 (as you may know, public transpo in Japan is always on the dot) and was wondering how to exit the station when my host father tapped my back. The first thing that I saw when I went out the station is a foot bath. Atami is an onsen town indeed.
So I met with my host family and we went around Atami first before heading to their home. We went to Heiwa-dori, just in front of the station to check out Atami's specialties.
Afterwards we get in the car to search for sakura. We passed by this kanketsusen (geyser) which is just along the road! When you take off the lid you will see a strainer, that my host family said can be used to put egg on for steaming. There are even kitchen tongs in water on the side. So it is like a public egg steaming place lol. There are 7 kanketsusen in Atami and there is a map and sign on each of it telling its history.
We also passed by the Atami plum garden with ume (plum) trees that are still blooming I think.
We then parked at a supermarket to go out and continue our search for sakura. We went to the Itokawa Promenade, where the river is lined with sakura trees. Unfortunately, the flowers have already fallen. Talk about early blooming sakura!
We went back to the supermarket sad and proceeded to our grocery shopping. First things first— Japanese supermarkets are my kind of heaven! My host mother asked me what I would like for dinner and I got ecstatic instantly— I said NABEMONO! Trying out legit nabemono with a Japanese family is one of the things on my bucketlist. I was so happy she cheerfully obliged! She asked me if I know shabu-shabu.
So here are my finds in the supermarket:
The famous Japanese beef that is of super high quality. Just look at that marbling! You can never find something like that in typical supermarkets in the PH.
Ginger? Nope! There are potatoes. HOW COME?!
Brussels sprouts! First time to see it.
PORTABLE BIDET! I have no words. This is very useful.
The appliance section has an opening day sale, too bad this was my first day so I was hesitant to spend money. If only I would have known I had more than enough money, I would have bought this toilet seat. LOLJK
We were on the way to their house when we passed by this line of sakura trees along the beach!
We arrived at their house and was loving the legit Japanese home feel. Their house was pretty big and I love the Japanese minimalism at their house! Didn't take pics to protect the privacy of my host family. There was of course, a genkan where you leave your shoes. This custom is not alien to me as an Asian but in the Philippines, we do not really have a dedicated place like this to leave our shoes/ slippers. We just leave them by the door and let it get scattered. If I get a huge place I will make it a must to have this in my house.
The room that they gave me is a TRADITIONAL TATAMI ROOM and I was so ecstatic when they showed it to me. I made a mistake of using slippers on the tatami room though, oops! The room has a futon with its own heater, a chabudai table and a zabuton pillow. They even provided me with cup noodles, bottled water and an airpot. Am I in a ryokan? Such hospitality!
So apparently my host father already has a plan for dinner tonight and that is to go to a kaitenzushi (conveyor belt sushi)! To be honest, I had a little traumatic experience from eating sushi here in the Philippines so I was a bit hesitant to go, but well, off to a new experience!
This was my first time to try a kaitenzushi and I was excited and nervous at the same time. What if I didn't like the food? How am I going to pretend that I liked it? We went to Hamazushi in nearby Ito-shi. Ito is a very popular fishing town, so I am hoping for the best. The place was packed and we had to line up for a few minutes before we got seated.
So here's what the table looked like. Each table has a small touch screen for ordering and on your side is the conveyor belt where you can grab anything you want, except those plates on a black thing that looks like a bowl, which is for orders made using the screen. Unless it is your order of course. On the table are hashi (chopsticks), togarashi (red spice), pickled ginger, green tea powder and a lot of soy sauce.
I was really surprised that I REALLY LOVED THE FOOD. The picture above shows all the plates we had and for sure, I had one of the two sushi from 90% of those plates. My host family made me try a lot of sushi, whether the seafood is boiled or raw. But it might be the basic ones though because I asked to give me the basics. I didn't try the natto one! It will take time for me to appreciate the taste of natto.
The sushi was so good that I actually tried this scary looking raw squid:
And I liked it! It was salty but it is crunchy and doesn't really taste like you are drinking seawater. The leaf that is wrapped around it is very tasty too! I was so glad I tried legit sushi from a fisherman town which erased all my bad memories of trying out bad sushi in the Philippines.
We ate a lot and I was soooo full! ONAKA IPPAI! I really thought that I'm gonna lose weight in Japan because of all the walking and the food. (I lost weight in the UK within 4 days because of all the walking and healthy food. I always had sandwich with a lot of veggies for lunch!) But I was wrong! Indeed, I gained a few pounds because apparently, Japanese are also fond of eating a lot and the serving is usually huge compared to Filipino eateries, which I didn't expect from an Asian country.
Upon returning to their house, they made me try on a yukata!
I can't stop fangirling over the kotatsu upon seeing it the first time so I can't help but do this.
This is a casual kimono and not used for formal ocassions.
Next Japanese house 'cultural exploration' is the… OFURO! I think this is my favorite part of the house. So, Japanese houses usually have their toilet and bathroom on separate rooms. The toilet is just a small stall where the bathroom is a pretty huge one with first, a 'dressing room' with a sink and another room inside it which has the shower and the ofuro (bathtub).
Their shower is pretty low compared to what we are used to because you do not stand while showering, you have to sit on a little chair in the bathroom. I really think that is nice and uses water for efficiently. We usually do that in our house when we feel like it. My host family was very kind to give me this bath salt from different famous onsen places in Japan! My host father called it 'onsen powder'. :p
The Japanese bathtub is deeper compared to western bathtubs, and I LOVE IT! It is not as long the western ones so you cannot really bend our backs, so you have to be in sitting position too. I am short though so I can tried to bend and wow, the water can reach my nose! When sitting, it can reach my chin. The bath has an 'onsen feature' too which when you turn on, the bath will be smoking! I realized that the trick is that they make the edges of the bath cold so when made to be in contact with hot water, it smokes. Such detail! So fun that in my host family's bathroom, they have written instructions written both in Japanese and English. Not sure if it's just for their guest bathroom though because they also have another bathroom upstairs.
And that was my first day in Japan! I was so happy that my host family was very eager to show-off the Japanese culture to me and I experienced a lot in just a day!

As ever when there's a budget in the offing we've people making suggestions about what should be in said budget. Some of these suggestions are even sensible, as is this one arguing that we should abolish stamp duty on shares:
"Abolishing the tax would lead to an immediate 7.7pc, or £133bn, increase in the value of listed companies on the LSE's main market on the day of abolition," he wrote. "It would incentivise saving for the future, removing a £402m a year burden from UK pension schemes and reduce the tax liability by up to £18,000 from the average UK family's savings."
A previous academic look into the subject is here.
The important thing to understand is the incidence of this tax. Certainly, it's the people buying and selling shares that appear to pay the tax itself. But after everything has flowed through the economy who is it that actually bears the economic cost of its existence? One answer is as above, pension funds. The end result is that pensions are lower than they would be in the absence of this tax. And, given that we tax privilege pensions in the first place it seems most odd to have another tax which then reduces them.
The other group who lose out is the workers in the country in general. As is noted above share prices would rise in the absence of the tax. This is equal and equivalent to making capital cheaper for companies. Cheaper capital will mean more capital being employed. And it's the addition of capital to labour that increases productivity, the average productivity of labour being what determines the average wages in the economy. Thus more expensive capital lowers average wages.
A tax which both lowers pensions and also wages in general doesn't seem to have a lot going for it. So, yes, we agree, abolish stamp duty on shares.

Root Canal Therapy
If you have been told that you need root canal therapy, you could be forgiven for feeling a knot of fear in your stomach. Root canal treatments have a reputation for being one of the most unpleasant and painful dental treatments, but thanks to evolutions in dental technologies along with advancements in pain local anesthetics, that reputation is now
At Eric Spellman, DMD, we use the Wave One System, so patients can have their root canal treatment effectively completed in one day. Unlike traditional root canal treatments, studies show that the Wave One system destroys 99.7% of bacteria in the root canal compared to 58% in traditional techniques.
What is root canal treatment?
Teeth have several layers. The enamel, which is the outermost layer, is the hardest layer and protects the softer inner parts from damage and decay. The middle layer is known as dentin, and it is often when dentin is exposed that we suffer from tooth sensitivity. Root canal treatment is designed to treat infections within the deepest part of the tooth, an area
The pulp contains channels that run from the crown of the tooth down to the bottom of the root. These channels are known as root canals. Smaller teeth may have just one root canal, but larger teeth like molars have several. The root's canal delivers blood vessels, nutrients, and nerves that your tooth needs to remain healthy. When the pulp of a tooth becomes infected, it compromises this delivery, causing your tooth to become diseased. When left untreated, a root canal infection will cause the tooth to die and fall out.
While root canal infections can result in tooth loss, if you seek treatment early, it is entirely possible to remove all traces of the infection and save your affected tooth. Some patients enquire whether they can have antibiotics as an alternative to
Symptoms of a root canal infection
A warm, moist mouth is a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and dental infections are renowned for spreading quickly. Often, an infection will have taken hold before the first symptoms are noticeable. However, there are signs that could indicate that you have a root canal infection. These include:
- Sensitivity to hot/cold or sweet food or drink
- Swelling in your jaw and face
- Swelling of the gum, particularly around the affected tooth
- Pus around the affected tooth
The tooth may darken in color as it loses the nutrients and blood it needs to remain healthy
Root Canal Procedures
Traditional root canal treatments usually
Around a week later, traditional root canals require patients to come for a second appointment to uncover the root canal again and check for signs of infection. Root canal treatments are performed using anesthetic, so you will not be in any discomfort during your appointment.

2016 has been a very exciting time for us as a company. This is our first full year promoting and bringing the ENGAGE™ product to the UK market and the response has been phenomenal. I have had the pleasure of sponsoring, attending and speaking at many transformation events across the country. I really enjoyed my first LocalGov Camp and found it really useful for learning from colleagues working with GDS and central government about implementing agile in practice. The unconference format I am seeing at more and more events is an excellent way of ensuring the sessions meet the attendees needs.
I would love to see more attendees pitching sessions and less suppliers so guys step out of your comfort zone and pitch a session about something you need in your workplace.
As both a Director but also a consultant in the Public Sector I understand that it is difficult in the current climate to find the time or get permission to attend. I find these events invaluable and the insight I gain from them helps me shape and deliver projects based on learning from others avoiding pitfalls and improving success. So please next year try to attend these events and if you do make sure you share the knowledge you gained back with your organisation to ensure others can also take the time out to attend. I find a single nugget of information picked up at these can more than pay for the cost of me attending, also not all of the events out there cost to attend so seek out those networks and get out there learning.
2016 has been a time of massive change for both the public and private sector with digital transformation continuing to move at pace. As I have said numerous times this year, I am continuously amazed at the transformation achieved in the public sector to just keep the lights on and maintain services but how long can this continue? The private sector has also seen massive changes in the way companies deliver digital services and the way companies are now structured. Have a look here for a short video by Erik Qualman(@equalman) showing just how different the world looks (also listen with the sound up for a great tune).
I find it fascinating to go back to his older videos on YouTube highlighting just how much it has progressed and changed.
2016 has seen a number of early adopters of the ENGAGE™ tools such as Portsmouth City Council, Perth and Kinross Council, North Ayrshire and Rochdale Boroughwide Housing to name a few, as well as maintaining a number of consultants using the tool to help numerous organisations. These clients are using the tools to support digital transformation, agile working and Lean initiatives in their organisations. We have a number of new clients in advanced stages of procurement so watch this space for more new clients. 2016 has also seen us as an ENGAGE™ partner become an Accredited Training Partner (one of only 3) in the UK.
As a cloud hosted piece of software ENGAGE™ provides an excellent tool that can not only save your analysts 30-40% of their time but also help them achieve better outcomes and business cases. The software is a mature product developed for over 8 years in Holland by our partners ENGAGE™ and offers a wealth of features designed specifically to help you (a gold suite licence will cost less than a quarter of your average business analyst salary or 5 days consultancy from one of the big firms). I am so confident in the product we offer free trials and also a free 1 hour webinar to help get you going contact us for more information or to arrange a demo. If it's good enough for clients like Schiphol Airport in Holland with 58 million passengers, then maybe it is useful to you. Ok sales pitch over!
I am a true process geek and whether you call it Lean thinking, Six Sigma, Kaizan, VSM or any of the other methodologies I am completely sure that the way to survive and thrive in challenging times continues to be to empower your teams to work on the work. Eliminating waste in our processes and delivering customer value will help us deliver in both the public and private sector.
A personal hope of mine for 2017 is that we spend less time procuring a system and fitting our processes into it and more time understanding our processes first then buying something that helps us deliver customer value and eliminate waste.
The important element in all of these methodologies is thinking. It is not a set of steps you follow or copying best practice processes from elsewhere, it is understanding your processes and identifying how you can improve them to deliver customer value and meet your organisations needs. When improving processes it is important the process actors participate in the workshops and not just management. Process actors who do the day to day work and understand the challenges and waste in the system are vital to achieving business improvement and also add additional value by owning the changes identified, communicating with other stakeholders and ensuring a smooth transition happens. In my experience a team can achieve 10-20% quick wins just by undertaking an As Is and To Be process workshop by this I mean changes that can be made to existing software or process to deliver improvements at little or no cost/time.
If you require some more information I have created a business case using ENGAGE™ to compare time saved using ENGAGE™ vs the traditional Post Its and Visio approach. Just use contact us to request it and we are happy to share.
This can be a really challenging process for middle management in the public sector. These workshops turn up waste in the system that sometimes with hindsight it can seem really obvious and potentially damaging to a manager for this to be highlighted in their service. In truth it is only obvious given the right conditions which is an empowered team of process actors with knowledge of the end to end business process, given the time to look at the processes and provide improvement ideas. The best managers I have worked with embrace the culture and the improvements this approach brings after all they are part of delivery of improvements.
This is where I believe the culture of the organisation needs to change. Underpinning Lean thinking is the culture of continuous improvement where everyone is encouraged to participate in continuous improvement. This needs to be led and championed by the top tier of management and regularly discussed to ensure widespread engagement. There are many great examples out there of where this has been used to great effect such as with Dave Brailsford and Team Sky, the Red Arrows debriefs or FedEx days. With newer companies now having much flatter structures with more empowered teams and staff they have effectively taken a degree of the middle management challenge out of the equation.
So for me 2017 is time to empower our teams to improve what they do. Let's trust them and our approach to deliver business improvements necessary for all our organisations to survive, improve and thrive. Let's give them the tools to help them do this (ok last pitch!).
Many thanks to the team at ENGAGE™ for the great software, for my training accreditation and for the many process geek discussions. I look forward to seeing you all at many events, demos and workshops in 2017 and discussing all things transformation and business process.
Do not miss this opportunity to save money and work more efficiently with Lean effective processes.

|Ruwanwelisaya Stupa, Anuradhapura
We spent our first sunset in Sri Lanka visiting the ancient ruins of Anuradhapura, the first capital in Sri Lanka dating from the 4th century B.C. The two most important sites are Ruwanwelisaya Stupa and the Sri Maha Bodhi tree.
The Sri Maha Bodhi tree was grown from a branch of the original tree that the Buddha sat beneath in Northern India. The cutting was brought to Sri Lanka about 2,300 years ago; it is the oldest documented tree in the world. There is constant supervision of the tree by local monks.
This is one of the most important pilgrimage sites for Sri Lankan Buddhists, so we were some of the only non Sri Lankans to be visiting the site. We realized that many locals were taking pictures of us at both sites. David assured me that this is just because they see few Westerners. While I think this is partly true, when I was returning the sarong that I had rented (because my bag didn't make it to Sri Lanka on our flight) I was told that it was a men's sarong. I think that might have explained some of the snickering, too!

A naming, a child blessing, adoption welcome, mentor, god parent or guide parent appointment ceremonies can all be combined in or around a name ceremony.
The times we live in are changing and your naming ceremony can reflect these changes. Your unique circumstances can be included in your ceremony making for a unique and very personalized celebration for you and your family.
Consider the following ……..IVF or surrogate births for both heterosexual and gay couples; adoption of children from other cultures; blending of children into a new family situation resulting from second marriages or a commitment; the appointment of mentors/guide parents/god parents.
These are all examples of modern day circumstances that demand and deserve special acknowledgment and participation within a ceremony.
The naming ceremony is an ancient ritual celebrating the arrival of a new life and although it remains as a core ceremony in its own right we have now fashioned into it and around it all the special circumstances we as people and especially as parents, find ourselves in.
Traditional baptisms or christenings do not cater for the varying ways our children are given to us. Indeed, not so long ago a teenager (whose father had been diagnosed with a terminal disease ) whose mother wanted to appoint godparents for him in a ceremony, was refused by the church because the child was conceived through IVF. We fashioned a truly touching ceremony around a naming ritual incorporating the appointment of his two godparents, beautiful readings and vows that reflected the values and beliefs of the family.
Don't give up in despair thinking a ceremony does not exist that embraces your needs or unique situation. Take a peek at my naming ceremony information. I am sure you'll be inspired to go ahead and plan a celebration of welcome for your child.
