Authors Robert Nelson and Ronald Nelson’s New Audiobook We’re Not Soldiers

Eugene, OR, July 03, 2024 –Robert Nelson and Ronald Nelson, two brothers who were born and raised in Oregon, have completed their new audiobook, “We’re Not Soldiers”: a gripping saga that follows one man’s journey to guide his family towards safety amidst a horrific plague that has destroyed society and a dangerous cult-like group intent on destroying them.

In a truly unique collaboration, brothers Robert and Ronald Nelson combine their imagination and insight to create a powerful story of hope and survival. Robert, a lover of action films, brings his life experience as a husband and father of twelve children to his writing, and Ronald brings unique insight into the human condition through his vocation as a Catholic priest. Both are men of faith whose lives have taken drastically different directions. Robert thrives in the lively atmosphere of family life, and Ronald, in between his many duties in ministry, enjoys dabbling in musical composition, writing, or just spending some quiet time alone.

Robert and Ronald writes, “Imagine a world where the COVID-19 virus turned out to be something much worse, a modern plague of biblical proportions. In a little farming town in Oregon, John Fide and his family find themselves in just such a scenario. One terrible day, John finds himself surrounded by death, and the entire world is devastated by the modern-day plague. The majority of the population throughout the world has been taken by the plague. Inexplicably, John and his family seem immune to the plague.

“Suddenly, all the things that John and his family had relied on are useless: money, credit cards, cell phones, and computers. The whole infrastructure of society is gone. Soon there is no electricity, and water no longer flows through the faucets. There is no longer a government; there are no police or emergency personnel that can be called upon for help. Now, John and his family can only rely on themselves, their faith, and their own ingenuity to survive.

“However, as if the struggle to survive after the plague is not enough, there is a growing evil on the horizon that is threatening to take away all that they have built, threatening even to take their lives. Through triumph and tragedy, and a little help from above, John must find a way to protect those he loves while holding on to his faith, his humor, his integrity, and his sanity in a dog-eat-dog world.”

New Principled Technologies Study Shows Advantages of Dell Latitude Rugged Extreme Tablets for Skilled Workers

Durham, NC, July 03, 2024 –Tablets that have glove-capable and outdoor-readable touchscreens, act more like computers and less like smartphones, provide more consistent performance in extreme temperatures, and retain usability after hard drops and water exposure could be a boon for skilled workers in all types of environments. In hands-on testing, PT showed that when it comes to manufacturing, logistics, and field services use cases, Dell Latitude 7030 and 7230 Rugged Extreme Tablets offered significant advantages against comparably sized Apple iPad Pro and Samsung Galaxy Tab S-series tablets with top-rated rugged cases.

According to the report, “Sedans are great for daily commutes and running errands – but you wouldn’t add iron cladding to one and send it into a battle zone unless you had no other choice. So why slap a rugged case on a consumer-grade tablet for your manufacturing, logistics, or field service needs when there’s an armored Humvee equivalent? In this report, we explore the productivity gains you could experience by investing in Dell Latitude 7030 and 7230 Rugged Extreme Tablets instead of equipping consumer-grade tablets with rugged cases.”

NACCE/SkillPointe Create School Counselor Advisory Council to Encourage More Students to Pursue Skilled Trades

NACCE/SkillPointe Create School Counselor Advisory Council to Encourage More Students to Pursue Skilled Trades

Cary, NC, July 03, 2024 — NACCE, through its SkillPointe tech platform, is dedicated to raising awareness of skilled trade opportunities across the United States. The SkillPointe School Counselor Advisory Council seeks to transform how and at what age students are introduced to these well-paying, in-demand and often overlooked careers.

The Council will build on SkillPointe’s mission to increase awareness of 80 skilled trade careers that require focused training but not necessarily a bachelor’s degree. SkillPointe makes it easy to explore these in-demand careers, find training and get the financial support needed to avoid debt. Many of these careers can become paths to self-employment, in alignment with NACCE’s mission.

The Council’s goal is to create a dynamic curriculum that increases awareness of skilled careers at every age level, from elementary school students to adult learners. SkillPointe is the flagship workforce development tech tool of NACCE, the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship.

The Council is led by Rebecca Johnson, a school counselor at Daphne Elementary School who was named Alabama’s 2023 School Counselor of the Year by the Alabama School Counselor Association. Johnson is joined by a growing number of elementary, middle and high school counselors from across the nation.

“The average tradesman is a 55-year-old, and it’s long past time to replenish the ranks of these skilled tradesmen and make sure their expertise is passed on to a new generation,” says Johnson. “SkillPointe already points the way to lesser-known lucrative career opportunities while reducing student loan debt.” The group will also provide guidance about how specific skilled careers lend themselves to starting a business. SkillPointe’s research has found that entrepreneurial skills matter in any career.

“We have found that many educators are already utilizing SkillPointe’s 2-minute career quiz to introduce students to a variety of skilled jobs that will require a relatively low investment in training and have tremendous earnings potential,” says Rebecca Corbin, president & CEO of NACCE and an inaugural member of the advisory group.

“We believe the School Counselor Advisory Council will be able to bring awareness to skilled trades earlier and more effectively in the primary education process, as well as to our adult learners, to create a pathway for programs not necessarily requiring a four-year degree.”

Counselors Play an Important Role in Closing the Skills Gap
This partnership highlights the importance of closing the skills gap and the crucial role counselors play in broadening students’ perspectives about work.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts there will be more than 3.3 million job openings each year for skilled careers. SkillPointe’s career pages help students of all ages and backgrounds understand what the career entails, what skills are needed, how many job openings there are, what kind of training is required, scholarship opportunities, and salary information.

As U.S. schools face a critical shortage of counselors, SkillPointe provides an opportunity to reach young, diverse students who can capitalize on these career opportunities. “SkillPointe provides that crucial first step to a skills-based future,” says Victoria Castro-Corral, college advisor at East Valley Institute of Technology and an inaugural SkillPointe council member. “Education has opened so many doors for me in my life. A quality education creates opportunities, and it’s exciting to see different educational paths beyond bachelor’s degrees gain more traction.”

Birthmom Buddies Launches Petition to Raise Awareness and Support for Birth Moms

Birthmom Buddies Launches Petition to Raise Awareness and Support for Birth Moms

Los Angeles, CA, July 03, 2024 — Birthmom Buddies is proud to announce the launch of the Hope and Support Campaign and Petition, addressing a critical gap in support for birth mothers. This pioneering initiative is dedicated to offering comprehensive assistance, including emotional, financial, and advocacy services. Through this petition, Birthmom Buddies aims to drive systemic change. Megan Pater, founder of Birthmom Buddies, asserts, “We question why birth mothers are often left in the same challenging circumstances they sought to escape for their child’s sake by choosing adoption.”

The decision to seek adoption services is one that comes with considerable responsibility and emotional weight. Birth mothers often carry significant emotional burdens such as shame, stigma, and grief. These feelings are compounded by societal attitudes and the long-term nature of their loss. Recognizing this, Birthmom Buddies offers hope and support. “Our vision is clear,” states the founder of Birthmom Buddies, Megan Pater, “a world where every birth mother, regardless of her background, is enveloped with the care and support she deserves. A world where her sacrifice is not just acknowledged, but honored through real, tangible measures. We are not just creating a support system; we are building a movement to redefine how birth mothers are treated post-adoption. As the founder of Birthmom Buddies, I am committed to this cause. It’s not just a mission; it’s a reflection of my own journey and a path to help others in similar situations. We stand for empowerment, for recognition, and for the right of every birth mother to have a fair change in life post-adoption. It’s a testament to the strength, love and resilience of every birth mother who has walked this path.” Understanding relinquishment trauma is essential for adoptees, birth parents, adoptive families, and mental health professionals. Acknowledging and addressing this trauma can help their journey and improve adoption practices to reduce the risk of trauma.

Compelling evidence:
1. Research in The Journal of Family Issues (2009) indicates that birth mothers who engage in post-adoption counseling report greater satisfaction with their decision, as opposed to those who lack such support.
2. The American Psychological Association (APA) underscores the significance of mental health care for birth mothers, highlighting its role in aiding them to navigate grief, cope with loss, and rebuild a healthy identity post-adoption.
3. Marie Dolfi, a clinical social worker, has written an article about the impact of relinquishment trauma: Relinquishment Trauma: The Forgotten Trauma

The petition features topics such as:

Mental Health Services and Support
Post-Birth Medical Care
Social Support Services
Education and Awareness

Additionally, Birthmom Buddies offers a community where women can share their experiences, offer support, and learn from one another. This interactive component provides a unique opportunity for users to connect with others who are navigating similar paths. Megan understands that every mother’s situation is unique. That’s why she created the Hope and Support Campaign and petition, www.change.org/birthmom_support, to be able to create the resources that are both comprehensive and adaptable to individual needs. “By endorsing this petition, you champion the rights and welfare of birth mothers nationwide. Together, we can guarantee that all women making the altruistic decision for adoption gain access to the necessary mental health and financial support, independent of their economic status. Join us in backing these valiant women who have chosen a brighter future for their children.”

Goat Milk Powder
In addition to Organic Pumpkin Powder, Pure Paws is also launching Goat Milk Powder. This product provides a comprehensive nutritional profile, including essential fats, proteins, and vitamins that are vital for a pet’s overall vitality.

“Our Goat Milk Powder is a game-changer for pet nutrition. It’s not only highly nutritious but also incredibly digestible, which is important for many pets,” added Khandker.
