PSU set a record for enrollment this past spring with a total of 6,752 students – a 2.4 percent increase over the spring 2009 semester. The university reported the numbers to the Kansas Board of Regents for the annual spring 20th day count of the six state universities.
"We are extremely pleased to see this number. Even with the budget challenges we face, which have resulted in a cut of $4.7 million in state funding, Kansas students and parents continue to see Pittsburg State as offering a great value when they consider postsecondary education options," said President Steve Scott. "Clearly that is the result of the efforts of the entire campus community. I'm very proud of and grateful to our faculty and staff. They have put the budget challenges aside and have focused on ensuring a quality experience for our students."
PSU experienced increases in several areas, including new freshmen, transfer students, new graduate students, and Gorilla Advantage students. The university also saw an increase (66 students) in the number of Kansas residents.
In addition, PSU has become the choice of more domestic minority students. This spring, minority enrollment was up 7.5 percent, with Hispanic students constituting the largest increase (13 percent). There was also a 9 percent increase in American Indian students and an 8 percent increase in African American students.
"We feel very good about this, and we give a lot of credit to our people who do so much in the way of recruitment and retention," said Dr. William Ivy, dean of Enrollment Management and Student Success. "People are returning to school to increase their skills and marketability in the workplace, and they are seeing PSU as the place to do that."

Scheduling classes for the semester to come is really frustrating. For example, registering for upcoming fall semesters is difficult because incoming freshman get to schedule their classes before and during when current students register, which would be during the current spring semester. This causes classes to fill up really quickly, and it's hard to attain the classes that you need to stay on track to graduate. Registering takes a lot of planning to figure out what courses you can take and when. It gets even more stressful when the classes needed are full or not offered for that semester.
The most frustrating thing about WKU is the time it takes for me to get to the majority of my classes. My dorm is located at the very bottom of the hill that WKU is spread across and almost all of my classes are located at the very top of the hill. This aspect of being a student at WKU is represented proudly by claiming the students as Hilltoppers, but I do not understand why almost all of the general education classes are located at the least technologically advanced, oldest, and most inconveniently placed building on campus.
The most frustrating thing at my school would have to be the same as the best. You know that beautiful campus that I brag a lot about? Well yes iit is beautiful but I also get frustrated because it?s also all entirely on a large hill, hence the name Hill toppers. This makes those 8 o' clock in the morning classes at the top of the hill so much fun. I am just guessing now, but I would say that each student who attends WKU probably walks about 5 miles a day when going to classes. Wow huh?
Western Kentucky University is unwilling to offer help to it's students that want to live off campus. Any sophomore or Junior who chooses not to live on campus must pay $1000 to do so. Also, their housing agreement covers the full year; there is no in between. It seems almost like they are succeeding at trapping their students with fees. If I were to break my lease after next fall when I am officially a Junior, I would lose $900 and the room itself costs $1750 for a single semester.
Probably the most frustrating thing for me about WKU are the science facilities. The labs are very old and the equiptment out-dated. I am a biology major so I am always in the science buildings. And the professors do what they can but sometimes our experiments are limited because of the lack of good, functioning equiptment. Plans are underway for a new science facility, but by the time it is finished my class will be graduated.
The lack of healthier food choices on campus. I think it's very important to maintain a healthy and balanced diet, especially with a rigorous college schedule, and the food on-campus doesn't really cater to healthy eating habits. It also frustrates me that not a whole lot of the budget is distributed to the Theatre & Dance Department. The building and its facilities aren't what they could be.
While the students and most faculty are easy toget along with, a lot of Western's own facilities such as dining or some of the organizations that "stand up" for students can be quite... agravating. Though they try their best to listen to students' needs, they always seem to fall short of what we actually wanted. It's kind of like asking your parents for a laptop and getting a typewritter.
This is hard for me to answer because I am transferring to WKU this year after obtaining two Associate Degrees from the Communiy College System. Right now I do not have any frustrations with the school. The application process and class scheduling has gone very smoothly. So far, the most frustrating thing is that it is in a different time zone from my home (I live in Eastern Kentucky)!
The most frustrating thing is finding locations that you need on campus. Though the campus is beautiful and truly a great enviroment, when looking at a map, you will have a little trouble. This campus is definitely large, but fortunately, most buildings you go into to ask direction questions do not have a problem assisting you on finding your way.
The most frustrating thing about the school is they always run low on scholarships. You have to end up taking out a loan in order to make it through the school and most of the time they award you with loans instead of more scholarships. The school can also tend to be racist and not open to diversity or people who are apart of the community.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman (Yisrael Beytenu) met with Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoygu in Jerusalem on Tuesday, days after President Donald Trump refused to recertify Iranian compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal, and a day after Israeli fighter jets hit a surface-to-air missile battery in Syria, a client state of the Kremlin.
According to a statement by the Prime Minister's Office, the meeting focused primarily on Iran's military buildup in Syria.
Netanyahu reportedly told Shoygu that an Iranian presence near Israel's northern border would not be tolerated.
"Iran must understand that Israel will not permit this," the Prime Minister said.
The leaders also discussed Iran's nuclear program, and the future of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, better known as the Iran nuclear deal.
The future of the JCPOA was thrown into doubt last Friday when President Trump announced he would not recertify Iranian compliance with the deal. Under US law, the president must certify Iran's compliance every 90 days. Failure to do so forces Congress to either reimpose sanctions lifted under the JCPOA, or vote to alter the sanctions regime.
The deadline for recertification passed on Sunday, with the President declining to certify Iranian compliance.
While congressional Democrats have backed the JCPOA and earlier called on Trump to recertify, many Republicans in both the House and Senate have argued the agreement must be radically altered – or scrapped. The president echoed this sentiment, calling to "fix it – or nix it".
On Tuesday, Netanyahu warned the Russian Defense Minister that without serious alterations to the deal, Iran will be able to manufacture its own nuclear arsenal within 8 to 10 years.
A day earlier, Israeli security officials contacted their Russian counterparts to notify them of an impending Israeli airstrike on a surface-to-air missile battery in Syria. Syria, a client state of Russia, had opened fire on the Israeli aircraft as they conducted routine reconnaissance operations over southern Lebanon, forcing the planes to return fire.

'Hanging A Potato' And Other Favorite Belarusian Phrases
February 21 is International Mother Language Day, a UN-sponsored event meant to promote linguistic and cultural diversity. In Belarus, one's mother language can sometimes be a thorny question. Both Belarusian and Russian are official languages, but Belarusian has gradually been marginalized in schools and government offices in recent years. In a 2009 census, 53 percent of respondents named Belarusian as their native language, down 20 percent in 10 years. Less than a quarter said they always speak Belarusian at home. When RFE/RL's Belarusian Service asked people in Minsk to name a favorite Belarusian word or phrase, some were inspired to quote poetry or bits of slang -- but many others struggled to find words.

This month AMG concluded its 40th year in existence. But before I start with something "angas", let me drill down with the few "what ifs" scenarios 20 years before 1967.
1947, Germany and its allies turned out victorious in the Second World War. United States ceded Philippines to Japan whose dwindling resources at that time eventually turned over its protectorate role to Germany. Despite semitic fear, uncertainty and deceit that we usually see in movies, books and TV today. Germany is no indifferent to the Filipinos and in the Philippines in the ways they are to the Jews in general for the reason that Dr. Jose Rizal is one of its treasured storyteller and excellent educator to the Arian race during his fruitful stay there in the 19th century.
Hitler continued work on his dream city called Germania with a tall order of raw materials needed to complete it, Germany has to look somewhere to continue building its other postwar interests. Daimler-Benz, having contributed substantially to the creation of The New World Order by Germany's definitions has to find its own resources that will not hinder to the completion of Germania. Despite all this Germanization, English is still the globally spoken language. And Philippines is just right smack on this opportunity, with the only English-speaking citizens around the region. To cut it short, The Aktiengesellschaft has its headquarters in Stuttgart but has all its dozers, drillers and cutters slicing through mines, forests and rivers of the Philippines building the finest Mercedes-Benzes in factories and plants nearby.
Fast forward to 1967, We'll probably have Castro, Reyes, Asuncion Pasig (CRAP) GesselSchaft or Santos, Hipolito, Ignacio, Taguig(SHIT) GesselSchaft or Francisco, Urdaneta, Coronel, Kalookan (F*CK) Gesselschaft as performance tuning companies working with Mercedes-Benz. Imagine your great exotic Benz today sporting such emblems from engine bay to the boot.
Fortunately, the Allies won. And in 1965, Mercedes-Benz employees Hans Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher supped up the engine of Manfred Schiek's 300 SE as a personal, non-work-related backroom project. The project was so successful that they created a cult following that lead them to decide to leave Mercedes and in 1967 Aufrecht, Melcher Grossaspach (AMG) Gesselschaft is operational.
One of AMG's legendary creation is the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 V8 that conquered the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps 37 years ago by Hans Heyer and Clemens Schickentanz. This fire-red beauty still put marvels in to the eyes of AMG fans because aside from engine mods, stabilizers and rollbars very little was done in the interior which means the innards still resembles a normal car.
Among my personal favorites from the early AMG-modded Mercedes-Benz is the C126 560SEC. Honestly, I don't want to spent time on keystrokes saying what the readers already know and what they can Google easily. But in the Philippines, there are only 2 known units of this C126 that is factory-original from bumper-to-bumper while others who claim originality still needs to prove their authenticity.
40 years passed, AMG engineers in its Performance Studio at Affalterbach still hand-made their engines and autograph them as a sign of fulfillment of their customers' dreams. As Aufrecht has said and quoted many times; "You must never say why something can't be done. You must ask yourself how it can be done."

That Thing Which We Must Never Speak Of
I'm not a superstitious person. I will walk under ladders, open umbrellas inside, put new shoes on the table and say 'Macbeth' out loud in the theatre all without fear of bringing bad luck upon myself or my nearest and dearest. Even so, my journey into the world of parenthood so far has left me fairly convinced that there is one area in life that should always be treated with the utmost caution. I have become superstitious about just one thing. Continue reading

The Highs and Lows of Maternity Leave
For many women maternity leave is that wonderful time we get to put our working lives on hold for a bit and stay at home, learning the ins and outs of our brand new job- motherhood. There are some wonderful perks to maternity leave. There are also some less than wonderful aspects to time at home with little more than a baby for company. These are some of the highs and lows from my experience.
Sleep Envy
Sleep envy. It's a real thing, and I'm slightly ashamed to say I've got it. I try not to show it but every time a mother at a baby group mentions how their little one has 'slept through since he was 10 weeks old' I feel myself rapidly going a Shrek shade of green with jealousy. What I wouldn't give for a good nights sleep. Continue reading

I seem to find myself on the losing end of the Poo Lottery far more often than I'd like. Unlike the normal lottery though I can't just choose not to buy a ticket. When that baby goes he goes, and somebody has to clean up the mess! (Not to mention the smell…) Continue reading

Writer Bio
Celeste Rita Baker is a Virgin Islander who currently resides in Harlem New York City. She has published short stories in The Caribbean Writer, Calabash, Margin's Magical Realism, Scarab and most recently Moko Magazine as well as Abyss & Apex Magazine.
Baker's genres include Speculative Fiction, Magical Realism and Reality Based Fiction in which she writes in Standard English and in Caribbean dialect.
I write because the urge to write won't go away. It's always on my mind, not something I always want to do, but I always feel better when I've done it.
The first time I saw myself – A Black Caribbean Woman – in print was in Merle Collin's novel Angel. I stood in the store holding the book to me chest, panting, tears burning me eyes. I was.
I am grateful for and love the work of Octavia Butler. Ms. Butler brought me to a world of science fiction where I was.
The Virgin Islands
My family is from The Virgin Islands, St. Thomas and St. John. I was born in New York City but 'came to know meself' on St. Thomas, learned to talk there and enjoyed my childhood. I returned to New York when I was twelve years old and that affected me in that I realized that I used to be and now I wasn't.
Harlem NYC
I moved back and forth from St. Thomas to The States numerous times but settled in Harlem in 1993. Now I love it. I can't keep up with all the things to see, do and learn. I especially like that whatever you're into you can find other people doing it too and doing it in that trend setting way that Harlem is known for. I found the incredible Sheree Renee Thomas, my writing teacher and mentor, at Fred Hudson's Frederick Douglass Creative Arts Center. Harlem is.

You won't know your exact requirements until you start building and getting more players on. Don't worry you can quickly upgrade your memory as your server grows. Follow this guide if you need to upgrade.
- Recommended Max Players is our best guess on how many slots gives good performance per GigaByte of memory. It relates to how many players can join before running into lag or out-of-memory errors. Newer servers with lots of mods/plugins will have less players per GB, you won't know exactly how many players until your server gets busy. You have Unlimited Slots, set this in the control panel, use your slots wisely. It's a guideline not set in bedrock!

Research Breakdown on Lactobacillus casei
Click on any below to expand the corresponding section. Click on to collapse it.
Click here to fully expand all sections or here to fully collapse them.
Lactobacillus casei is a bacterial species and probiotic supplement in the Lactobacillus family, and a popular strain of this bacteria is referred to as Shirota (Lactobacillus casei Shirota)[2] and as its family name suggests, it is a lactic acid producing bacteria via fermentation and normally occurs in the human intestinal tract.[3]
Obesity appears to be associated with increase lipopolysaccharide (LPS) appearance in serum, which is thought to be from a combination of increased intestinal permeability and a heightened ratio of gram negative:positive bacteria.[4] LPS, via signalling through the TLR4 receptor (on immune cells), can promote symptoms of metabolic syndrome and usually is seen to promote obesity and insulin resistance.[5][6][7][8] Excessive chronic elevations of LPS are thought to play a contributing role in metabolic syndrome.
Lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) is a 60kDa protein that facilitates signalling by transporting LPS to the CD14 receptor, a coreceptor that responds to LPS as well as TLR4 (and MD2); concentrations of LBP correlate with LPS and it is sometimes used as a biomarker[9][10] and LBP has been further shown in humans to positively correlate with both obesity and insulin resistance.[9][10][11]
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and its binding protein (LPS binding protein or LBP) are increased in the blood of obese persons relative to lean controls, and as they are produced by gram negative bacteria in the gut it is thought that this increase is due to increased gut permeability. LPS has proinflammatory mechanisms to promote obesity and insulin resistance
Endurance athletes supplemented with L. casei Shirota (6.5x109 CFU delivered via fermented milk) daily for 16 weeks while training during the winter months experienced no change in white blood cell count or subfraction when compared to placebo.[12] Another study using L. casei strain DN-114 001 (dose not specified) for close to 4 weeks in military cadets undergoing extreme training also found no significant effects on immune parameters, but noted a trend to blunt the increase in white blood cells at the end of training in the probiotics group compared to placebo.[13]
Supplementation with L. casei Shirota (6.5x109 CFU delivered via fermented milk) for 16 weeks in endurance athletes significantly increased salivary IgA compared to those supplemented with placebo. This effect was seen 8 weeks after supplementation started, and not before. However, neither plasma IgA nor salivary or plasma IgA or IgM was affected.[12] Another study in military cadets supplemented with an unspecified dose of L. casei strain DN-114 001 while undergoing intense training saw a trend toward abolishing training-induced declines in salivary IgA.[13]
L. casei Shirota has been noted to, when tested in vitro, induce release of GM-CSF, IL-12 and IFN-γ to a relatively higher degree than other tested strains.[14]
When assessing IL-17, l. casei shirota (9.2-10.1x109 CFU) over 63 days in rats was noted to not exacerbate symptoms of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis although it was also without benefit,[15][16] this suspicion arising from thoughts that IL-17 plays a pathological role[17] and l. casei shirota has been noted to cause a transient increase in serum IL-17 after a week of 0.6-1.2x109 CFU, which was no longer present after 12 days.[16]
L. casei shirota has also been noted to preserve IL-10 concentrations in serum during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (desipte not altering synthesis rates in splenic cells[16]) at an oral intake of 0.6-1.2x109 CFU daily, where a decrease may occur with no probiotic treatment.[16]
Supplementation with L. casei Shirota (6.5x109 CFU delivered via fermented milk) for 16 weeks in endurance athletes did not affect levels of interleukins 1β, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 in comparison with placebo.[12]
Supplemental Lactobacillus casei Shirota (65mL of 108/mL CFU) to people with metabolic syndrome does not appear to significantly alter receptors expresses on neutrophils (TLR2,4, and 9) although it appeared that this study had significant differences in soluble CD14 expression (higher in control at baseline) which were abolished with treatment.[2] Another study involving an unreported dose of L. casei strain DN-114 001 for close to 4 weeks during intense training by military cadets noted a statistically insignificant trend in the supplemented group in blunting a rise in neutrophils induced by the training.[13]
L. casei Shirota has been noted to, when tested in vitro, cause activation of NK cells with similar potency to some other probiotics (including two bifidobacterium strains).[14]
In mice under experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, oral intake of l. casei shirota has been noted to increase CD4+CD25+ Treg cell populations (as a ratio) with a mild decrease in CD8+ T cells after 12 days of 0.6-1.2x109 CFU.[16]
Endurance athletes supplemented with L. casei Shirota (6.5x109 CFU delivered via fermented milk) daily for 16 weeks while training during the winter months experienced a lower prevalence (36% lower) of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) symptoms lasting one week or more compared to similar athletes given placebo. The number of average URTI bouts was also halved in the supplemented group. However, the duration and severity of URTI symptoms was not affected by L. casei Shirota supplementation. The authors of the study believe that elevated salivary IgA may have played a role in the reduced prevalence. [12]
Another study using L. casei strain DN-114 001 (dose not specified) for close to 4 weeks in military cadets undergoing extreme training found no significant effects on rate or severity of respiratory infections overall. A statistically insignificant higher incidence of nasal symptoms occurred in the supplemented group and lower incidence of symptoms occurred throughout the rest of respiratory tract (again statistically insignificant). The authors argue that this may indicate that the probiotics helped confine respiratory infections to the nasal area.[13]
One study has found that L. casei supplementation may lessen the chance of upper respiratory tract infection symptoms while training during the winter months. Length and severity of symptoms was not affected, however. Another study in military cadets found no overall effect, though.
Male bodybuilders supplemented with a multi-strain probiotic capsule that included Lactobacillus casei along with L. acidophilus, L. bulgaricus, B. breve, B. longum, and S. thermophilus for 30 days saw significantly higher T4 levels of 3.4 μg/dL over placebo and lower thyroid stimulating hormone. T3 levels were not different between groups. It is unclear if this effect can be traced back to L. casei specifically, however, due to the inclusion of multiple strains of bacteria in the supplement.[1]
Metabolic syndrome and its comorbidity of insulin resistance are associated with increased permeability of the intestinal wall to bacteria[18] and increased serum lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and its binding protein, two biomarkers of endotoxemia[5] which have been confirmed to be elevated in obese humans (with metabolic syndrome) relative to healthy lean controls.[2]
Although it is unknown what causes the increase in gut permeability, the increased ratio of gram negative:positive bacteria in the gut is thought to cause an increase in LPS (only exists in gram negative bacteria) which reaches serum;[5] this ratio appears to be increased in rodents fed a high fat diet with subsequent obesity.[6]
Supplemental Lactobacillus casei to rats is known to reduce (improve) intestinal permeability[19][20] and mice that are fed Lactobacillus casei Shirota at 0.05% of the diet for 4 weeks are able to reverse a high-fat diet induced insulin resistance without affecting body weight.[21] When tested in humans, 65mL of a solution with 108 colonies per mL has failed to improve intestinal permeability over 3 months (thought to be due to too short a time frame or underdosing).[2]
The lactobacillus species of bacteria appears to frequently colonize vaginal mucosa (mostly the species gasseri, jensenii, iners, and crispatus[22][23]), of which casei is present in some samples.[24] A vaginal state characterized by a deficiency of lactobacillus bacteri (in general rather than a specific strain) appears to be associated with increased risk for bacterial vaginosis[25] and may promote the transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) relative to a sufficient state.[26][27][24]
Lactobacillus casei is one of the many species present in vaginal mucosa, but the relevance of this information to oral supplementation of the bacteria is not known

|Phase 1 Study to Determine the Efficacy of Using Far Infrared Radiation for Multiple Sclerosis.
|Brief Summary
|Multiple sclerosis (abbreviated MS) is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system (CNS), leading to demyelination. This study will investigate the use of far infrared radiation for MS control, management and treatment.
|Detailed Description
MS a demyelinating disease, is any disease of the nervous system in which the myelin sheath of neurons is damaged. This impairs the conduction of signals in the affected nerves, causing impairment in sensation, movement, cognition, or other functions depending on which nerves are involved.
MS affects the areas of the brain and spinal cord known as the white matter. White matter cells carry signals between the grey matter areas, where the processing is done, and the rest of the body. More specifically, MS destroys oligodendrocytes which are the cells responsible for creating and maintaining a fatty layer, known as the myelin sheath, which helps the neurons carry electrical signals.
Observations from our research studies indicate that, far infrared rays provide energy to the body, improve the autonomic functions of the nervous system, restore the functions of the endocrine system, strengthen the immune system, improve blood circulation and increase the level of oxygen in the cells and promote the regeneration of muscle cells, nerves and brain cells.
It is hereby postulated that irradiation using far infrared, with wavelength between 5 to 20 microns, of the central nervous system, the endocrine system and the whole body could prevent, control, manage or possibly lead to complete rehabilitation of people who have MS.

How Medical Insurance Claims Are Processed
Because the cost of medical expenses is getting more and more expensive each year, people are depending on health insurance to help them pay partially the cost of the medical expenses, which are helpful in their financial and health conditions, and which prompts them to subscribe in health insurance because of the affordable terms, which is paying the premiums in either monthly or annually.
When a health insurance subscriber wants to make use of her insurance benefits for medical treatment, hereby are the procedures which she will have to observe: the subscriber hands over her insurance card and fills out a demographic form at the healthcare provider's office or clinic, and the demographic form requires the following data: patient's name, date of birth, address, Social Security number or driver's license number, the name of the policyholder, and any additional information about the policyholder, if the policyholder is someone other than the subscriber/patient; also, the subscriber or patient presents a government-issued photo ID.
Once the paperwork is completed, the patient proceeds for consultation and treatment to a designated physician, such that whatever else are serviced to the patient will all be reflected as chargeable costs which will be recorded by a medical biller and coder of the healthcare service provider, to which this recorded document will serve as the bill or medical insurance claim.
A Simple Plan For Investigating Claims
The medical biller enters the information into the appropriate claim form through a billing software, in which the claim is sent to the payer, which is the health insurance company, and to a clearinghouse, which is a third-party company whose function is to check any errors documented in the claim.
What Do You Know About Resources
Without a clearinghouse, the health insurance company of the patient may possibly act on these possibilities, as soon as it receives the medical claim: accept all expenditures and pay the bill or deny the claim on account of a billing error, to which the bill is returned to the healthcare provider to be corrected or reject the claim on account that the services rendered are not covered within the health plan of the patient. This is where the clearinghouse is of valuable use to help correct errors and check the health plan coverage of the patient, such that when the clearinghouse sends over their validation on the medical claim to the healthcare provider, the medical biller and coder will use the validation as basis to reformat a new medical claim, which will be sent again to the health insurance company and, in this manner, there's a likely chance that the health insurance company will eliminate its previous options, which are denying the claim due to an error and rejection of the claim on account that the services are not covered by the health plan.

UNIMAT Commercial Inc. is a privately operated multifacited real estate investment company based in Los Angeles, California with a reach across selected regions of the United States in its holdings. Its investments under management and integrated joint venture properties make for a diversified real estate portfolio including, office, retail, multifamily, and industrial assets.
The portfolio projects an assembly of bold assets with a sense of pride in ownership. Properties vary across the investment spectrum, and include core-stabilized to distressed assets acquired for revitalization or full scale development. The organization focuses on creating value for itself, its investors and affiliated partners by utilizing its team's experience. This translates best in its calculated approach when analyzing and understanding the project's long-term and short-term investment horizon.
Structured asset management is a cornerstone in the operation of each property. Executing aggressive lease programs with quality tenants and physically maintaining a property in an efficient manner is necessary to sustain a property's integrity and competitiveness. The synchronization of these advanced tactics at the precise state in the economic cycle produces an edge in the company's acquisition, disposition and management processes. Through these strategic processes, greater demand and inherent property value is created, while benefiting its surrounding communities and environments.
Presently, with a foothold in leading markets within key states, an aim to further the company's growth in existing and new markets persists. In these future endeavors, opportunities for new business along side strategic partners are often explored.
Acting primarily as the Acquisitions, Development and Redevelopment arm to UNIMAT Commercial, UNIMAT Real Estate Services (UNIMAT-RES) stands as a full service hands on real estate firm which handles all facets of the Real Estate process. This branch of the UNIMAT platform provides Real Estate investors and principals an opportunity to maximize the potential of their investment by means beyond basic asset placement.
UNIMAT-RES was founded under the premise of "strategic foresight" which targets specific areas within gentrifying regions, and forecasts future shifts in underutilized landscapes within the designated zones. Upon identification, assets will be acquired with an aim to achieve maximum value creation and returns. Markets experiencing radical change or a surge in growth are opportunistic settings where underutilized assets exist. Repositioning a property in an underperforming state can dramatically increase the desirability of the asset, producing higher property value and net returns.
While short term and long-term holding periods vary from deal to deal, UNIMAT's edge in a competitive real estate climate involves the disposition of assets which have reached their maximum threshold within peak market values. The shift in investment to immerging areas with long-term potential creates value purely based on demand and growth, hedging the onset of a depressed future economic cycle. Depending on timing within the economic cycle assets are periodically evaluated and either turned for an opportune exit or held for the long term in an appreciating market. UNIMAT-RES aims to acquire and reposition well-located assets, with a goal to revitalize their surroundings and the local community.
UNIMAT-RES extends beyond servicing the UNIMAT platform and offers its comprehensive Real Estate resources and solutions to those outside of its own business framework.
UNIMAT-RES provides a broad range of commercial real estate brokerage services and implements the finest real estate tactics to capture opportunities with a competitive advantage. Sustained by implementing a variety of market research tools, analysis and market forecast capabilities. UNIMAT's proficiencies cover Purchases and Sales as well as Landlord and Tenant representation, which can fulfill requirements on a company-wide measure.

As I waited in the Narthex to greet parishioners after the 12 o'clock Ash Wednesday service, the hearse pulled into the parking lot, and the fire trucks began to arrive. The Church was to commend Sarah Truitt Chase, 23, to our Lord at 3 o'clock. Sarah was a volunteer fire fighter, receiving the far and wide support and prayers of that community. I grabbed a cup of cold water and exchanged my purple stole for a white one.
I only met Sarah one time: over the course of two days, here in this same, holy space. The occasion was her grandfather's funeral not quite five months ago. In that brief time, I experienced Sarah as a young woman of conviction, compassion, and uncommon grace. Her life was a life lived on purpose.
The loss of such a life - the loss of Sarah - is a great trouble. A great and unexpected sadness. I remember Vicki's remark to me on Monday, that a mother is not supposed to be prepared to attend her daughter's funeral. It's not supposed to be like this. And Brian, who lost his bride two days before the resolution of custody issues which was to allow Sarah and Brian and Anya to live as one family under one roof. Devastating and unexpected loss. Profoundly felt loss. Trouble.
So the Scriptures speak to us, remind us: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. In the gospel, Jesus tells his friends, "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me." And he gives them these words not as a happy platitude on a sunny day, but as he prepares them for great loss and trouble: his departure from them, Jesus's own agonizing death. "Do not let your hearts be
troubled." "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
On what grounds does Scripture say these things, even in the face of death?
The Church teaches that because Jesus Christ was raised from the dead, we too shall be raised. This is our hope in times of trouble: that nothing, not life,death, heights, powers, nor anything else can separate us from the love we know in Christ Jesus. Even in death, God is our very present help.
That's what the reading from Revelation is about. It's a picture of the heavenly realm. Every nation gathered, all things made well, but if you look carefully, the picture of the heavenly realm is not without its trouble. A chaplain who worked in a psychiatric ward and knew therefore something about trouble asked me once: "Have you ever noticed that it doesn't say that there aren't any tears - no more trouble - only that God himself is present to each tear, to each face on which they're born, with the promise to wipe every tear away?" She said to me: That feels honest.
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. This is at the heart of what Christians believe it means that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.
May you remember this strength through your tears - the good and holy tears of love and loss and grief. May you know the presence of our God who is present in trouble. Sarah herself receives this promise in its fullness today: not that there are no more tears for her - only that the present trouble, her loss - has been met by the tenderness, the parent-like lovingkindness of God. The God who even now wipes Sarah's face, too.

Annnnd we are in Hong Kong! It is Thursday at 4:30pm. And it is barely morning for those of you in the States, weird. I am really excited about everything here. Yesterday we got a welcome class and then we went around downtown Hong Kong after riding the MTR (it's a metro/transportation system). We walked around a mall. Went through a market and also a wet market. Really interesting to see. And sooo excited about the food here. I bought a green tea roll filled with cream and red bean paste at one of the bakeries last night, which I had for breakfast this morning. YUM!
We had our first Chinese class this morning. And this afternoon was a lot of getting to know each other better. We are "done for the day". As of right now, most of us are sitting outside of the cafeteria on the wifi typing away. I got to teach two people in the group a little bit about Tumblr email posting. After this, we're going to take the MTR to Tsim Sha Tsui, watch the laser show that takes place from the harbor and go to the night market. It's Janelle's birthday today. She just turned 21, and so tonight is going to be a birthday celebration!
We have a few more days of introductory classes for Chinese and Intercultural Communication here at the YMCA camp here in Hong Kong. Fun fact: in Hong Kong and China, the YMCA is associated with and is used by Christians.
I am loving it here so far. It's really busy and fast paced. It really feels like camp at this point. Or even like freshman orientation, which felt like camp. It is a lot to take in and I am looking forward to everything that we are going to learn and see. I'll try to keep you all updated as often as I can! 🙂

(Deutsch) Schleiden: "Hurra mit Kriegsgebrüll"
Eifel (D): Sound Installation "Sagenhaft" @ 1. Nicholas marktet Schleiden
Update: Unfortunately, the sound installation had to be canceled due to illness.
The sound installation "Sagenhaft" of the composer Dorothée Hahne is heard on 6th and 7th December as part of the first Schleidener Nicholas market. "Sagenhaft" consists primarily of a computer script that reproduces everything said after 3.33 seconds and thus stimulates reflections on transience and valency of words. In 2010 the sound installation have had its premiere in Bad Münstereifel. Recently it was realized at the Internationalen Tanzmesse NRW 2014 in Dusseldorf.

Why do you need a business plan?
There are many reasons we could list for developing a business plan, but here are just a few...
1) To grow your existing business: Even if you already have a business, you will benefit from developing a solid business plan. It will help you figure out how to scale your business and help you discover where you need to allocate your resources.
2) To create a new business: It will help you clarify what you really need to be doing in your business, where you need to place your focus, what resources you need, and how to allocate those resources.
3) Developing a business plan will help you clarify every aspect of your business. It will also help you share that vision with others. Even if you are not planning on borrowing money for your venture, you still need a plan. And if you are borrowing money, you must have a plan.
Developing a business plan is not rocket science, so don't be intimidated by the process. We are here to help simplify the process and start you on the road to success in your business endeavor.
We believe, "If you can't plan it, you can't do it!" Business planning can be intimidating, but less so after you have attended this key workshop. It enhances the understanding and skills you will need in developing this vital tool.

6 Fast And Inexpensive Ways To Give Your Boise Idaho House The Perfect Spring Makeover
It is spring once again, and just like every other year when you trade your dull, heavy winter clothes for lighter and carefree attire as the days start to grow longer and warmer, you should do the exact same thing for your home.
The good news is, getting your home prepared for spring really doesn't have to take lots of time or money. The work can all be done in one weekend, and you will only have a few inexpensive items to buy for the project. Here are six fast and inexpensive ways to give your house that perfect spring makeover without spending a fortune:
1) Sheer Beauty Is Back In Style
Take those heavy winter drapes down and put up sheer curtains, panels or valences instead to provide a light and airy look. For your design, consider lively items such as stripes, butterflies, swirling ivy vines or even polka dots. These window treatments are very simple and can most likely work with your existing curtain rods. For a nice change you could try using a wrought iron rod. The ivory, cream or white tone from the sheer will provide the room with a brightening and airy effect that was once ensconced in heavy, warm winter fabrics.
2. Add A Nice Zest To The House
All-natural ingredients can be used to infuse your house with an organic and fresh feel and smell to it. Whenever you are looking to add a touch of spring to the room, add elements such as stones, pebbles, wood and fruit. Add river stones to a glass vase for a textured and natural look. Another idea is to fill a vase or bowl with bright yellow lemons or green shiny limes. This natural and fresh decoration can be added to a dining table, coffee table or the mantel.
3. Make A Bold Statement With New Hardware
One very quick yet inexpensive and effective upgrade is to add new hardware. Just simply changing drawer pulls and knobs in the kitchen or in the bathroom can make a dramatic and eye-popping difference. If your kitchen has traditional cherry cabinetry with brass hardware, you can always replace it by using a trendy brushed aluminum instead and knobs with interesting designs and shapes. For a very fresh and light look you could select lightly tinted or clear multi-faceted knobs in the shape of squares or flowers.
4. Wash Your Windows
To really get a fresh, new outlook, wash your windows from both the inside and the outside. Not only will you wash away the winter grit, it will also allow you to look out on the blooming flowers and all the other wonders of spring. The bright sunshine will enter the room and provide a nice warm glow to the walls, artwork and carpets. Use newspapers or packing paper to wipe your windows down with. The qualities and textures of the newsprint provides a streak-free finish to the glass. This simple spring cleaning task will make a wonderful different to your home.
5. The Power Of Flowers
It just won't feel like spring unless you have tons of pots filled up with beautiful, blooming flowers such as paper whites, tulips and hydrangeas. You could just use the standby terra cotta pots. However, you may want to look form something a little different. Add daffodils to old fashioned country bowls and set them on the kitchen windowsill. For a very elegant look, plant ivy topiaries inside a tall urn.
6. Introduce Color And Texture With Wallpaper
Add a new color scheme or pattern to your room by adding wallpaper to the walls, or freestanding shelf or even an open-faced hutch. You may want to choose a busy floral, lively stripe or something a little less dramatic. To add the wallpaper to a piece of furniture, all your need is scissors and some glue to complete the project.

If you've been operating under the assumption that a will and final testament is superfluous and largely unwarranted, perhaps these facts and figures will help enlighten your train of thought:
- Over 50% of Britons do not have a viable will and final testament in place.
- When these individuals inevitably pass away, their dependents will have to rely on antiquated laws, some of which were established as far back as 1925, to distribute the estates.
- Estate taxes will be much higher if the deceased individual failed to create a living will.
- Without a living will and testament in place, the government will essentially become your chief executor upon your death.
- Establishing a legally binding will is the only way to concretely determine who gets what after you pass away, regardless of your relationships with the individuals in question.
As you can see by now, it's in your best interests to address this all-important concept long before a life-threatening situation comes about, especially if you have specific wishes with regard to the equitable distribution of your assets and belongings.

It is the year 2016! Cars are becoming autonomous; factories are becoming automatic, modestly priced smart phones today pack in more features than a full
blown desktop ten years ago. In a time when science and technology is constantly challenging preconceived notions about everything around us, there are a
few powerful survivors, ones which have not only which have found practical application in human life but also have been validated by science. Once lost
due to lifestyle changes in the 80s and 90s, the ancient yogic science and practices has revived as a celebration today. We celebrate it in our daily
lives, special events and marked days.
The science of Yoga is 5000 years old and yet it continues to be a focal point of millions of people around the globe. So what's it about Yoga that one - ups other fitness activities? Yoga not only enhances your physical attributes like strength, flexibility and balance but
also nurtures your mind and soul.
We all know that yoga is good for health and how the practice of Yoga manifests in the beautiful physical form. But it's known to only a
few that Yoga is more than just beautifying your physical form. There are three layers of our existence that transcend through a practice of Yoga. When practiced in the right way, after gracing your body, it enlightens your mind. Yogic science points out that the breath exercises in Pranayama are the only way to control your mind. Once a person attains the adornment of mind, yogic practice resonates with the soul. It
transforms us from within to experience dhyana.
Medical science is just 200 years old, and yet we trust the wisdom of it. The 5000 year old yogic practice has a stronger foundation with scientific wisdom
of many great practitioners and rishi-munis. The healing ways of Yoga is based on the belief that our body functions as one unit. A pain
in leg might have a root in the chest, or a pathology in the gut may manifest as pain in shoulder. With a holistic and comprehensive approach, Yoga heals the body from within as a single unit. This approach was brought forth by our rishis, long before the medical science was born.
Here are some quick asanas you can practice on the go for a healthier living:
Laghu Shankhprakshalan
(cleaning of our digestive system)
Procedure : This Yoga is supposed to be done the first thing after waking up. Drink two glasses of lukewarm water followed by these five asanas ten times

Background :
