4th Annual Encephalitis Conference

The FACES (Friends And Caregivers Encephalitis Survivors) Encephalitis Conference is proud to welcome friends old and new to attend and learn more about encephalitis, from the people it has touched.Encephalitis Global Inc. President Wendy Station is an encephalitis survivor.
She says, "It's our annual time of the year to raise awareness, and let the world know that we have a voice.
So often, problems such as encephalitis are swept under the carpet, as folks just don't understand? and don't wish to take the time to understand.
We would all like to change that.Judith Ashton of Encephalitis Global Inc.

and also an encephalitis survivor adds, "Those who survive encephalitis often face a range of serious cognitive and physical impairments.
For example, some survivors, particularly those who have suffered encephalitis due to the same virus that causes cold sores, the herpes simplex virus, may be left with a variety of memory problems, including amnesia.
Other survivors may be left with attention and organization problems and far-ranging difficulties in processing information. Many have speech and language difficulties. Some experience profound fatigue and sleep disorders.

Survivors also may have a range of physical disabilities, from paralysis to partial paralysis to significant balance and gait problems.
They may also have seizure disorders.
Encephalitis may touch anyone from young infants to elderly persons and those who survive are likely to require extensive rehabilitation services and may or may not regain former functional abilities to work or to live independently."This illness is so frustrating for some survivors and their families because many of the disabilities we have as a result of contracting encephalitis are not readily apparent.
Thus, those who don't know us well may not understand how difficult it may be for us even to perform basic daily activities.
A noisy environment may trigger a seizure.

We may not be able to process information quickly enough to drive a car or perform a job.
We may not be able to concentrate long enough to do basic housekeeping activities.
We may be overwhelmed by the complications of simply writing out checks.
Our balance may be so poor that we cannot use the public transportation system."
A guest speaker at FACES will be Elaine Dowell from The Encephalitis Society in the United Kingdom. Ms.

Dowell is a founding member of that Society and parent of a son affected by encephalitis."Some forms of encephalitis are transmitted by insects, including the West Nile virus," says Wendy Station.
"So often, West Nile's most serious impact is measured by the basic fatality count.
We hope for people to learn about the encephalitis survivors, and the struggles they are facing.
Our message is simple.
We have survived.

We are here.
And we are fighting back."For more information, visit Encephalitis Global at www.encephalitisglobal.com and click on FACES 2005..

How to Automate Your Collections

Having been a landlord since the early part of 1994, I feel fairly safe in stating I've tried almost every imaginable way of collecting monthly payments from my residents. I want to run through some of these methods and let you in on the pros and cons of each technique. I'll wrap it up by telling you what I do now.Personal CollectionsScheduling appointments to pick up payments was never even a consideration for me as a standard way of doing business. I'm too lazy and I consider it the resident's responsibility to pay me if they want to stay. The advantage is that you know right away who's paid and who hasn't.

You still don't know if the check will clear with good funds, assuming you weren't paid in cash or certified funds.Of course, I've met with residents to pick up payments on special occasions when the resident was late or trying to avoid late fees. Again, this is a waste of time in my opinion.I now have a designated place for the residents to drop off payments if they want...

Lawsuit Funding

Lawsuit Funding is essential to victims of personal injury who are without sufficient income and are awaiting a legal settlement.
All too often a person is injured by the wrongful acts of another but must wait years to receive his or her fair compensation.Finally there are companies like Global Financial (http://www.glofin.com) that offer plaintiffs cash advances against their pending legal claims.
They do not do credit checks or income varifications, they simply evaluate the legal claim and then advance a portion of the potential award and wait for payment from the proceeds of the settlement or judgment.
It is a very risky business, which is why banks are not involved and specialty finance companies like Global Financial take the risk.Lawsuit Funding is like "Lawsuit Insurance".
A plaintiff can assure or guarantee a financial recovery from his or her legal claim by taking a cash advance from Global Financial...
