Add You - Preparing for Your Baby's Baptism or Christening
As a former CEO of a publicly-traded company, I have watched the emerging revelations of corporate wrongdoing with more than a passing interest. While filled with the same revulsion shared by many to the immoral, illegal and greedy actions of some companies and their leaders, I am also concerned that we not overreact and undercut an economic system that is clearly the best in the world. The fault, my dear readers, is not with the system, but with an abuse of the system. We should also be careful to differentiate between the greedy abuse of the system and the criminal act of looting a company.As I read attacks on stock options and other forms of incentive c
The food doesn’t need to be extravagant, it can be as simple as sandwiches, vegetable and fruit trays, and drinks, or you can choose to have a hot meal catered. If you’re going to do the food yourself, prepare as much as you can the night before and store it at your chosen venue and then talk to family members about helping you set everything up. If money is an issue, consider holding a potluck. You’re family and friends will be more then happy to bring their favorite dish and you can be sure that there will be plenty of food, without the added financial stress.
Whether opting for a reception or not, it is a good idea to pick up a small favor for your guests. These can be any small gift that your guests will appreciate, and can be given at either the ceremony, the reception, or both. Your guests will appreciate your etiquette and your thoughtfulness. In some communities, it is a
L.N. Mittal has an abundant appetite for acquiring steel firms. From Kazakhstan to Romania, from Indonesia to the US, the Indian-born takeover tycoon’s Mittal Steel has gobbled up steel plants and added them to his expanding empire. But not even his most ardent admirers bet on the success of his bid for Europe’s biggest steel maker Arcelor S.A.Except perhaps Mittal himself. Luxembourg-based Arcelor had tried everything to fend off the metal maven. At first there was shock and confusion in the European ranks as the French, who hold stake in the company, told Mittal that his bid had no chance. Luxembourg politicians said they would pass legislation to make h
The first thing you must do to prepare for your baby’s Baptism/Christening is to decide if you will have a religious or secular (non-religious) ceremony. Once you have chosen which type of ceremony you would like to do, you will then need to select a date and contact your church.
You will need to meet with your minister, priest, or clergyman to discuss the details of the event. Will you it be held at the church, your home, garden, or another location? Find out about the guidelines for the ceremony, will it be something that is performed during a regular Sunday service or is it something that is done on a separate day and time that you need to schedule. If your church requires it, you may have to take special classes before the Baptism/Christening takes place.
Don’t forget to ask questions about the procedures you need to follow during the actual service, as well as the use of things like video and photography during the event. Finding out about these things ahead of time can be helpful when sending out invitations to your guests because you are able to make them aware of the rules they must follow during the ceremony, for example: no video cameras or flash allowed inside the church.
Once you have set your date and determined the information you will need to communicate it to your guests, it is time to send out invitations. It is best to begin looking for invitations about 1 month before the ceremony. You will need time to get them made up and to get them out to your guests. Guests should receive them at least two weeks prior to the big day. For many people, this will mean that you need to choose your invitations before the baby is born.
The most important part of the entire event will be selecting your baby’s Godparents, should you choose to have them. The Godparents will be the people who will take care of your child if something were to happen to you and your spouse, so making a hasty decision is not a good idea. Religiously speaking, they’re also responsible for directing your child in the customs of your religion.
Traditionally, in many religions, baby girls are given two Godmothers and one Godfather, and baby boys should have two Godfathers and one Godmother, but it’s really up to the parents to decide how many they want. You will also want to take into consideration how the chosen Godparents may handle the responsibility of becoming your child’s full-time guardian should the need arise. Once you have made the all important decision of choosing the Godparents, the rest of the event will be a breeze.
Traditionally, the Baptism/Christening gown that your baby will wear during the service would be a long white or cream gown, worn by both girls and boys. Many families will have a gown that has been passed to them from other generations, but if you do not have a gown you can choose to buy a vintage gown from an antique store, or purchase a new one. If you are not sure about having your baby boy wear a gown, do not be concerned, in recent years it has become quite common for baby boys to wear formal short suits or a formal white shirt and pants. If you are planning to buy a new outfit, you may want to find out how to preserve it for use by future generations.
The actual service will only last for about 20 or 30 minutes, and then you may elect to hold a small reception afterwards. If you do plan to have a reception, you will need to decide where you’re going to have it because you may need to book the venue in advance if you want to use a restaurant or hall.
The food doesn’t need to be extravagant, it can be as simple as sandwiches, vegetable and fruit trays, and drinks, or you can choose to have a hot meal catered. If you’re going to do the food yourself, prepare as much as you can the night before and store it at your chosen venue and then talk to family members about helping you set everything up.

Twice a year, Bill Gates goes to a remote island hide-a-way for a week at a time. No, he’s not going for a fishing vacation; instead of rods, reels, and lures he takes market analyses, position reports, engineering reports, and opportunity papers. In solitude he reads and thinks and reads some more, writing notes in the margins then composing questions, thoughts, and his own positions that will impact the future of Microsoft and the entire technology industry for years to come.Getting away from the daily pressures for an extended period of careful thought and consideration in his “Think Weeks” are the way Bill Gates works on the vision of the company, de

Very few people truly understand the hardships of the American trucker. Hollywood portrays them as wild rebels blazing down the highway enjoying their “freedom” as they disappear into the sunset. They are running the loud and mean road machines tearing through the night, fighting to get to their destination. The truth of the matter is that over the road trucking is hard, dangerous work. As the population grows in this country, it has become more difficult just to find a parking space. Tired and weary, a driver looks for a place to stop and take a much needed break. Signs everywhere read : “No Semi’s Allowed,” and “No Truck Parking.” The trucking

When I first started my online business, I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. With the help of a friend, we mapped out the initial business plan I would follow to success. The funny thing is that neither one of us had any clue how the internet worked, but armed with professional certifications in accounting and auditing and with a ton of high quality work experience we figured that we had this nailed. We did not.The one good thing about starting the business was that I could not invest any real capital into the business to get it off and running, as many businesses are required to do when first starting out. I had a meager startup budget of $100.

Once your baby’s special day is complete, don’t forget to send thank-you cards or letters to all your guests to show your appreciation for coming to your child’s Baptism/Christening. For those family members and friends who were unable to attend the event, whether due to distance or other obligations, you may want to consider sending them a Baptism/Christening announcement as a way to share your day and provide them with a keepsake.
