STC MANAGEMENT 於2009年正式成為AMO(國際認證資產管理機構) 是全美第一家華人企業榮獲此肯定

IREM Regional Vice President J. Benjamin McGrew, announces STC Management as the newly recognized AMO company. John Hsu representing the company, swears to upheld the ethics and requirements as an AMO member

Designations What is an AMO?

國際認證資產管理機構在房地產業的發展中，國際資產管理協會IREM®認知到業主在選擇信譽良好房地產管理的重要。出於這個原因，該協會在1946決定核定嚴格的合格標準，認可優良的管理公司，並頒發正統的認證標制（國際認證資產管理機構AMO®）來分歧一般與優良及信譽良好的房地產管理公司。一個被認可的房地產管理公司不只必須符合在一開始檢驗的能力和標準，國際資產管理協會IREM®還會持續觀查，檢驗，並要求被認可的房地產管理公司繼續堅持或超越該標準，以確認認可標制的確實性。國際資產管理協會IREM®只頒發給公司企業此認證。 Awarded by the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM), the Accredited Management Organization (AMO) distinction comprises an elite group of real estate management firms exhibiting the highest level of ethical standard, performance, experience, and long-term financial stability. As the only form of formal recognition attainable by real estate management firms, AMO accreditation sets a firm apart from its competition and presents greater opportunities on the road to financial and professional success. Such accreditation is vital in promoting the long term success and recognition of any real estate management organization. AMO accreditation requires that a firm have a CPM in an executive position, therefore allowing clients and investors to place their trust in a demonstrated leader. Other criteria include a minimum of three years’ experience in real estate management, six comprehensive letters of recommendation, strong overall financial health, and a pledge to abide by the Minimum Standards and Code of Ethics of the Accredited Management. A truly prestigious distinction, AMO accreditation is held by only 525 real estate management firms worldwide who together manage over $123 billion in assets, over 1 million residential units, and nearly 550 million square feet of commercial space. Nearly half of AMO firms have been in business for over 20 years, and more than 80% have been established for at least a decade.

AMO firms constitute a network of high-level business professionals who benefit from the exchange of invaluable information through powerful resources and work together to promote education and ethical behavior in business. AMO membership allows a firm to provide its staff with professional development opportunities – all AMO firm employees can purchase publications and attend IREM courses, conferences, seminars, and webinars at a premier member rate. Furthermore, firms attract business through their inclusion in the AMO Directory for Investors, which is distributed to over 4,000 investors nationwide, as well as through the association’s extensive marketing program and advertising tools. Together, these resources help strengthen an elite group of firms unified through dedication, experience, integrity, and professionalism.

Designations education. Following the course work, candidates must submit a resume of closed transactions and/or consultations showing a depth of experience in the commercial investment field. After fulfilling these requirements, candidates must successfully complete a comprehensive examination to earn the CCIM designation. This designation process ensures that CCIMs are proficient not only in theory, but also in practice. With such a wide range of subjects to be mastered and in a dynamic business such as real estate, the educational process doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t end once the designation is earned; there is a strong commitment among CCIMs to continuing education. Only 6 percent of the estimated 125,000 commercial real estate practitioners nationwide hold the CCIM designation, which reflects not only the caliber of the program, but also why it is one of the most coveted and respected designations in the industry. The CCIM membership network mirrors the increasingly changing nature of the industry and includes brokers, leasing professionals, investment counselors, asset managers, appraisers, corporate real estate executives, property managers, developers, institutional investors, commercial lenders, attorneys, bankers and other allied professionals. Through this business network and through enhanced communication with the CCIM electronic network, CCIMs successfully complete approximately 156,000 transactions annually, representing more than $400 billion. Certified Commercial Investment Members are in more marketplaces in North America -- 12 CCIM regions representing 1,000 cities -- than all major real estate companies combined. Regions and chapters provide designees and candidates the opportunities to promote business and educational goals through local and regional forums and meetings. Conferred by the CCIM Institute, the CCIM designation was established in 1969. Courses leading to the designation are now offered throughout the world.

The Making of a CCIM The CCIM designation is conferred by the CCIM Institute, an affiliate of the National Association of Realtors. The designation process ensures that CCIMs are proficient not only in theory, but also in practice. Every professional working toward the designation must successfully complete a graduate-level curriculum totaling 200 classroom hours. Taught by experienced CCIMs, courses are continually refined to keep current with the fluctuating nature of the industry. Candidates also are required to document professional transactions and pass a day-long comprehensive examination. Certified Commercial Investment Members demonstrate an exceptional level of knowledge and experience. In fact, only 6 percent of all commercial real estate practitioners hold the elite CCIM designation, reflecting not only the caliber of the program, but why it is the most coveted and respected designation in commercial investment real estate.

Preventative Maintenance

By Susan Lu

“A

n ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Minor damage can worsen rapidly over time. By fixing as well as rectifying small fixes before they transform into huge headaches leads to a reduction in maintenance expense and this is what Preventive Maintenance is all about. Small fixes are big issues: one may be bound to play down the issue of small fixes, thinking that it is but a small crack. But even a small crack can be an indication of something bigger yet to come. Preventative maintenance ensures the safety of the building, the quality of the structure and a reduced mainte3nance expense. Fixing a few things every quarter is much easier and cost effective than doing major repairs and a dozen changes every couple of years. The benefits of preventative maintenance include:

• Repairing minor maintenance item before large costs are incurred

• Identifying major items in need of maintenance/repairs

• Consolidation of smaller jobs that can be3 done on the4 same time will lower costs charged to owners

Followings are some areas requiring close attention when comes to preventative maintenance: 1. Caulking cracks: routine inspections allow to easily spot such repair items as caulking damage on properties. If not fixed, this allows insects an easy access point into the buildings, as well as water seepage that can lead to mold. 2. Damaged roof and gutter: Older shingles begin to curl or missing tiles leading to interior unit damages due to water leaks. Any bent or missing gutter will most likely accumulate water in the damaged area. Broken downspouts can also mean serious damage to roofing and gutters, causing water accumulation. Improper drainage caused by damaged downspouts can lead to water buildup near foundation walls resulting in seepage and interior property damage. 3. Erosion: improper drainage can cause erosion. Serious injury can occur due to the steep drop-off at the edge of the sidewalk. The aesthetic value of the landscaping is also compromised, ultimately losing much of the property’s “curb appeal” for potential tenants. If not maintained, erosion can become the perfect shelter and breeding ground for a variety of rodents or other unwanted pests. 4. Tuck-pointing: as a building ages, maintenance needs increase. Proper tuck pointing ensures that water can not penetrate bricks and the top edges of the foundation. Ignoring these repairs will inevitably shorten the life span ofth materials in the building structure. All the founded problems should be repaired as soon as possible no later, right then and there. By doing so, the value of the property is bound to increase and the maintenance expenses should come down. Adopting proper preventive maintenance are an important part of property management strategy and as a owner, you are improving the health of your property as a whole.

人生不可錯過的故事 15

誤會

早年在美國阿拉斯加地方，有一對年輕人結婚，婚後生育，他的太太因難產而死，遺下一孩子。他忙生活，又忙於看家，因沒有人幫忙看孩子，就訓練一隻狗，那狗聰明聽話，能照顧小孩，咬著奶瓶餵奶給孩子喝，撫養孩子。有一天，主人出門去了，叫牠照顧孩子。他到了別的鄉村，因遇大雪，當日不能回來。第二天才趕回家，狗立即聞聲出來迎接主人。他把房門開一看，到處是血，抬頭一望，床上也是血，孩子不見了，狗在身邊，滿口也是血，主人發現這種情形，以為狗性發作，把孩子吃掉了，大怒之下，拿起刀來向著狗頭一劈，把狗殺死了。之後，忽然聽到孩子的聲音，又見他從床下爬了出來，於是抱起孩子；雖然身上有血，但並未受傷。他很奇怪，不知究竟是怎麼一回事，再看看狗身，腿上的肉沒有了，旁邊有一隻狼，口裡還咬著狗的肉；狗救了小主人，卻被主人誤殺了，這真是天下最令人驚奇的誤會。註：誤會的事，是人往往在不瞭解、無理智、無耐心、缺少思考、未能多方體諒對方，反省自己，感情極為衝動的情況之下所發生。誤會一開始，即一直只想到對方的千錯萬錯；因此，會使誤會越陷越深，弄到不可收拾的地步，人對無知的動物小狗發生誤會，尚且會有如此可怕嚴重的後果，這樣人與人之間的誤會，則其後果更是難以想像。

釘子

有一個男孩有著很壞的脾氣，於是他的父親就給了他一袋釘子；並且告訴他，每當他發脾氣的時候就釘一根釘子在後院的圍籬上。第一天，這個男孩釘下了37根釘子。慢慢地每天釘下的數量減少了。他發現控制自己的脾氣要比釘下那些釘子來得容易些。終於有一天這個男孩再也不會失去耐性亂發脾氣，他告訴他的父親這件事，父親告訴他，現在開始每當他能控制自己的脾氣的時候，就拔出一根釘子。一天天地過去了，最後男孩告訴他的父親，他終於把所有釘子都拔出來了。父親握著他的手來到後院說：你做得很好，我的好孩子。但是看看那些圍籬上的洞，這些圍籬將永遠不能回復成從前。你生氣的時候說的話將像這些釘子一樣留下疤痕。如果你拿刀子捅別人一刀，不管你說了多少次對不起，那個傷口將永遠存在。話語的傷痛就像真實的傷痛一樣令人無法承受。註：人與人之間常常因為一些彼此無法釋懷的堅持，而造成永遠的傷害。如果我們都能從自己做起，開始寬容地看待他人，相信你/妳一定能收到許多意想不到的結果....幫別人開啟一扇窗，也就是讓自己看到更完整的天空....

且慢下手

大多數的同仁都很興奮，因為單位裡調來一位新主管，據說是個能人，專門被派來整頓業務；可是日子一天天過去，新主管卻毫無作為，每天彬彬有禮進辦公室，便躲在裡面難得出門，那些本來緊張得要死的壞份子，現在反而更猖獗了。「他那裡是個能人嘛！根本是個老好人，比以前的主管更容易唬！」四個月過去，就在真正努力為新主管感到失望時，新主管卻發威了－－壞份子一律開革，能人則獲得晉昇。下手之快，斷事之準，與四月表現保守的他，簡直像是全然換個人。年終聚餐時，新主管在酒過三巡之後致詞：「相信大家對我新到任期間的表現，和後來的大刀闊斧，一定感到不解，現在聽我說個故事，各位就明白了：「我有位朋友，買了棟帶著大院的房子，他一搬進去，就將那院子全面整頓，雜草樹一律清除，改種自己新買的花卉，某日原先的屋主往訪，進門大吃一驚的問：『那最名貴的牡丹哪裡去了？』我這位朋友才發現，他竟然把牡丹當草給剷了。後來他又買了一棟房子，雖然院子更是雜亂，他卻是按兵不動，果然冬天以為是雜樹的植物，春天裡開了繁花；春天以為是野草的，夏天裡成了錦蔟；半年都沒有動靜的小樹，秋天居然紅了葉。直到暮秋，它才真正認清哪些是無用的植物，而大力剷除，並使所有珍貴的草木得以保存。」說到這兒，主管舉起杯來：「讓我敬在座的每一位，因為如果這辦公室是個花園，你們就都是其間的珍木，珍木不可能一年到頭開花結果，只有經過長期的觀察才認得出啊！

The Changing Retail Landscape

By Jeri Ni

Once upon a time, Mervyn’s was down the street next to Linen’s n Things. Need a TV? No problem, Circuit City is around the corner. If

you want a new Lazy Boy to go with that new TV, stop by Wickes Furniture. After the shopping spree, finish the day off with a nice steak dinner at Black Angus. Once upon a time… One year later, Fall 2009, all the stores mentioned above have filed bankruptcy and are no longer in the retail shopping center community. Drained by the worst consumer-spending slump in decades and burdened by debt, U.S. retailers are expected to begin a wave of post-holiday bankruptcy filings, altering the landscape of malls and on main streets across the country beyond recognition. Expect more changes. So what does this mean for the owner? How do you protect yourself in the face of tenant’s filing for bankruptcy? As a landlord, the best thing to do, as a general rule, is to terminate the lease and regain possession of the leased premises as soon as there is a suspicion that the tenant may file for bankruptcy. Once the tenant files for bankruptcy, the lease becomes property of the bankrupt’s estate and is counted as an asset for the benefit of all creditors. Therefore, terminating the lease prior to filing is extremely important. The tenant that files a chapter 11 bankruptcy essentially has two (2) choices. The tenant must either assume the lease (and potentially assign the lease to a third party) or the tenant must reject the lease. Pursuant to §365(c)(3) a debtor may not assume or assign any unexpired lease if the lease has been terminated under applicable non-bankruptcy law prior to the petition date. The tenant will have 120 days after the date of the bankruptcy filing (plus a 90 day extension for cause) to decide whether they will assume or reject the lease. Keep in mind, the automatic stay period is enforced and it prohibits almost every type of action against the debtor or the debtor’s property – thus preventing a landlord from proceeding with an eviction or attempting to re-let the space. A space may potentially go dark for 6 months or more, affecting the shopping center environment and indirectly affecting other tenants. Should the tenant elect to assume the lease – they are required to cure any and all defaults and provide adequate assurance of future performance of the lease. However, should the lease be rejected, the debtor/tenant is required to immediately vacate the premises. In this situation, the Landlord will typically file the following claims: “Pre-Petition Claim” (for the amounts due and owing to the Landlord on the day the bankruptcy petition was filed. Pre-petition claims are unsecured claims paid pro-rata with the other unsecured claims following the administration of the estate); “Administrative Claim” (amounts due to the landlord post-petition and pre-rejection. So long as the estate is not administratively insolvent, administrative claims are usually paid in full and given priority over unsecured claims); “Rejection Damage Claim” (these damages are subject to the Rejection Damage Cap which is identified as the greater of either (1) one year worth of rent and charges; or (2) 15% of the balance of the lease term not to exceed three years worth of rent. Rejection Damage Claim is unsecured and paid pro-rata following the administration of the estate.). Landlord will assess which claims they have and submit a Proof of Claim outlining the amount and basis of such claim. It is vital for Landlords to remember to be proactive in order to offer themselves the best chance of success in securing and controlling the leased premises. It is also important to note any concessions made prior to bankruptcy filing by the tenant should be limited should the Landlord not be able to terminate the lease and regain possession. Any concessions made prior to the bankruptcy filing may be subject to even further compromise following filing. As unpleasant and long-winded the bankruptcy process can be, it is unfortunately becoming a familiar part of our commercial property landscape. Each situation will differ. Be flexible. Once the situation presents itself, be adaptable and explore different alternatives and options – especially before filing. Be alert. Keep in constant contact with asset and property manager as well as leasing agent. It is vital for Landlords to communicate with their team to assess the different options available – whether it is preventative measures or exit strategies.

少林寺的永春拳 17

得名於少林寺的永春殿，因當年少林寺所具備的拳法,套路甚多，師父及助教不少，而僧俗各弟子所習之拳套每每不同，且當年少林寺內所教授的武藝並不相同，故形成了今天流派眾多的少林拳，其中授武地點有羅漢堂、般若室、永春殿、達摩院等多處,，有傳少林方世玉師弟胡惠乾亦是在永春殿學習花拳。少林至善禪師於清廷火燒少林寺後，為逃避清兵追捕而隱於廣東佛山、清遠一帶，後匿藏於佛山瓊花會館，並隨戲班坐紅船（註一）落鄉,作息，期間至善禪師先後將少林拳藝傳授給田能及竇華寶，後弟子們稱為田竇二師，當年生活於紅船上，船中地方空間不多，不適宜長橋大馬之拳套練習，故此將昔日少林寺拳法改進，注重短橋，貼身手法，集其精華，編製成一「樁拳」及「樁法」三套–分為天、地、人等及一套「六點半」棍法，以適應地理環境. 佛山是當年武術界各名師集中地，本門宗師董植、鄧算、朱頌民、鄧奕、等都曾於佛山居住，習武授藝，至近代經澳門再將永春拳傳到香港遠及國外、北美、歐洲各地。雖則本門各宗師大多擇徒至嚴，亦鮮有公開設館授徒，至普羅大眾或未聞本派名稱，幸近年朱頌民宗師弟子及徒孫等除在香港授藝外，在歐美各地都有將本門拳藝繼續傳授，如朱頌民大弟子陳永如師父所授門人繼趙大成師父Apolo Chiu 早於廿多年前已在歐洲傳授永春拳，加拿大有許衛天師父 Terry Hui 於十多年前移民後授徒; 而近年大師兄蕭卓洲在美國加卅落地生根亦利用很多時間，發揚傳授永春拳，香港朱師眾徒子徒孫已於今年集合一起籌組了永春拳會，結集力量，希望繼續保存少林派永春拳的傳統技藝及少林精粹。蕭卓洲師父有公開授徒傳授永春拳,Self Defense, TaiChi(Yang) and ChiKung 在 Suzanne Park in City of Walnut on every Sunday between 9:30am to 12:30pm. For more information please contact Benjamin Chen at 909-991-9296 or email to Benjamin@stcmanagement.com or visit www.shaolin-wengchun.com for more information. 蕭卓洲師傅是少林永春拳第七代弟子，傳授武藝包括自衛散手，大點半棍法，楊氏太極和養生氣功。少林永春拳以內外兼修，功法並重，陰陽互補，剛柔並濟為基礎。外功拳套有“永春11式”，“三拜佛”，108式平拳（花拳），椿拳和念頭，武器以六點半棍法為主。內功有六段錦，形神椿，達摩易根經，捧氣灌頂法。學習少林永春拳對防身養生都有相當好的用處，希望有意者可踴躍報名。

話說會計

By Amy Fan

人生不可錯過的故事

想贏，要先認輸，再求突破在好萊塢有影星們意欲爭奪的奧斯卡金像獎，但搶在奧斯卡獎頒獎前一天公布的「金酸莓獎」，選出的卻是最爛女主角，也可說是眾星們最想遠離的獎項。二○○二年，荷莉貝瑞打敗眾女星，得到奧斯卡金像獎影后，不久後，她卻因為在電影「貓女」中，被認為「只會賣弄身材，毫無演技」，成為「金酸莓獎」的最爛女主角入圍人選之一。舉辦了二十多年的「金酸莓獎」，每年都由評審們選出他們認為演技最爛的男女主角，卻很少有人願意出席領獎，因此大家都認為，荷莉貝瑞八成也不會出席。沒想到，荷莉貝瑞不但盛裝出席，當主持人宣布她的名字的時候，還假裝一副不可思議地驚訝，雙手抱頭，然後興奮地說：「天啊！真想不到是我得獎！」隨後，帶著她所得到的奧斯卡最佳女主角獎盃上台，她的舉動讓現場的來賓與媒體幾乎都笑翻了。接過金酸莓獎之後，大家都很想知道她會說哪些話，只見荷莉貝瑞說「各位評審委員們，辛苦了。既然我得到了這個獎，我也要跟我的經紀人分享。」當她的經紀人上台之後，荷莉貝瑞告訴經紀人：「下次接片子的時候，記得幫我挑一部好一點的片子，不要選這麼爛的劇本。」全場又是哄堂大笑。接著，荷莉換上了正經的表情說：「從小，我的媽媽就告訴我，想贏，要先認輸，輸了就輸了，一個不敢接受失敗的人，也沒有權利接受成功的機會。」荷莉的一番話，激勵了在場的來賓，也廣受媒體的喝采，隔天，幾乎各大報的頭版都是她的版面，荷莉因此搶盡鋒頭。不管你是非志願離職、被公司遣散、失業、被倒錢，或是創業失敗，傷心難過是一定的，但是就接受吧。有句話說「哪怕明天是世界末日，今天也還是要種蘋果樹。」遇到不如意的時候，光抱怨並不會讓事情更好，但接受事實之後，往往可以找出另一道出口

About Going Green

By Gene Wang

n today’s harsh business environment, firms have been struggling to maintain their profitability through aggressive cost-cutting. In the process, many have turned to a new frontier, the green movement, as a method to improve their bottom lines and at the same time help preserve the environment. Tremendous strides have been made in the alternative energy industry, most notably in solar power, and government rebates and a new desire to maintain corporate image have made such options feasible and profitable in the long-term. At the same time, firms have also been reevaluating methods that have long been overlooked, such as improving recycling and reducing waste-hauling expenses. Today, the new priority is corporate sustainability. California currently leads the nation in green jobs, green patents, supply from renewables, and savings from efficiency. In it’s effort to prepare for a more sustainable state in the future, our state has begun to revamp its policies and establish new standards. These new developments, which include LEED certification and numerous rebates in green technology, have provided companies with a perfect window of opportunity to satisfy the need to improve profitability and efficiency. Hopefully, these new policies will help encourage more efficient design, construction, and maintenance practices, satisfying both tenants as well as owners and at the same time reducing negative impacts on the environment.

時間和生命是公平的

人一生當中所遇到的事情也許是命中注定的,你想避免也難,就順其自然吧！該放手的時候，就要懂得如何重新尋找自我,有可能從中認識到更多，也不完全是負面影響，吃一塹長一智嘛。該擁有的時候必然會得到,也許這就是緣吧！人與人之間的關係就是那麼的微妙,本想著不該發生的事情往往正好讓你給碰到了，想擁有它的時候卻不一定會得到。這些都是需要很長時間來領悟的，算來這時間上的浪費也同樣是值得的。在失去這些的同時,你也同樣得到了很多,那只是看你怎麼去理解了。換位思考一下問題，結果又是另一種答案。我們所想的，不一定都能夠做到，那就放棄一些不值得的吧！也許所用的時間更值得我們為自己前面的道路展開光環。人一但有了動力，就有了寄托，心就會為它而奔波，就會更有精力有目標性的追逐它。時間所給我們帶來的一切都是那麼的美好，一切的一切都需要我們用心去享受。可同樣的事情，給我們所帶來的卻是不同的感受，那是因為我們存在著視覺和思想上的差異。當你受過傷害，也許覺得上天對你不公。快樂和憂傷不是別人能給的,而是自己所能體會到的。在你開心的時候別人怎麼給你打擊也沒有用，你同樣還是快樂的。而在你郁悶的時候，在任何人身上也得不到快樂,得到的也許只是一份安慰。積極的對待自己所遇到的一切，失去的東西不再回來，那我們就爭取尋找更好的，會有雙倍的回報等待著我們！生命中的每時每刻，都需要我們好好的去珍惜，最公平的也就是時間和我們各自的生命了。相信自己，就會有實現的可能。永遠不要被挫折而嚇退，勇敢的面對自己所遇到的事情，清醒對待自己，不要盲目的追逐自己混亂的心態。知道如何看開,公平的對待我們周圍的一切，那麼公平就會永遠存在! 僅以此文章獻給因罹患肺癌在十一月去逝的Helen Ma, 永遠的STC人………….

Creating Real Estate Wealth through Leasing 21

magine, after years of hard work and frugal living, you have finally amassed enough money to invest. And being the smart and educated person that you are, you know that real estate is one of THE best investment vehicles that provide steady income, tax shelter, inflation protection, and most importantly, wealth creation. Out of 33 industries engaged in by Forbe’s top 400 richest Americans, the real estate industry ranked number 2 (after Finance) in generating massive wealth. Granted, the real estate industry has been under hot water recently and we will most likely continue to experience stomach-wrenching, heart-aching stress in the next year. However, relative to its investment counterparts, say, the stock market, real property value will rarely, if ever, reach zero. So, how do you extract the most value out of your commercial real estate property? Very simply, you need three things – good management and good leasing. Let’s focus on the leasing part for now. We will illustrate how leasing has a significant influence on your property value. Property value is often determined by the concept of Cap Rate, which is basically the annual NOI (Net Operating Income) of the property divided by the sales price of the property. The NOI is basically your rental income minus the operating expenses. Let’s plug in some numbers. Assume you have a medical building with a few vacancies, and you are planning to sell it one year from now. Let’s also assume that your monthly NOI is $67,000. By using a Cap Rate of 8%, which is the national average for the medical office according to Marcus & Millichap, the value of your medical building is $10,050,000. Now let’s assume you have a strong leasing team like STC Management. Our goal is to decrease your vacancy rate by putting in top tier quality tenants. Suppose that by utilizing our extensive industry network, technology, and expertise, we are able to increase your monthly NOI by just $13,400, to $80,400. Can you guess how much the value of your property would go up to? Using the same Cap Rate of 8%, your property’s value is now $12,060,000. So a modest $13,400 increase in NOI per month resulted in a property value increase of over $2,000,000 in just one year. So, unless you are the lucky few who had just won an eight-figure lottery, or, well, even you ARE that lucky few, having a solid and experienced leasing team behind you is of tremendous importance to ensure your healthy income stream, and ultimately, your comfortable life after retirement. And STC Management is here to pave the way.
