Community Unites for International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking: Focus on Education, Awareness, and Action
On June 26th, 2025, the Church of Scientology of Sacramento hosted a community gathering to observe International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking. The event brought together local leaders and organizations dedicated to combating the devastating effects of drug abuse. Featuring both the Foundation for a Drug-Free World and the National Guard Drug Demand Reduction unit, they focused on educating attendees about the dangers of substance abuse, particularly the rise of fentanyl overdoses, and the importance of preventative measures.

The event was kicked off by the Public Affairs Director for the Church Mike Klagenberg who welcomed attendees and acknowledged the significant contributions of community partners, including the National Guard. In his opening remarks, he emphasized the importance of raising awareness and taking action against the growing drug epidemic. He then introduced the Emcee for the event, Patricia Schreiter, a dedicated staff member from the Church with a background in the U.S. Army, helping bridge the connection between the military and the audience.
Schreiter, who has been an instrumental part of the Church, delivered a brief yet compelling overview on the significance of educating the public and especially kids about drug abuse prevention. She then introduced Nathan Johnson, the Drug Free World Director for their Sacramento Chapter, who captivated the audience with a PowerPoint presentation highlighting the alarming rise of fentanyl-related deaths in the local area. Johnson’s personal stories and data underscored the critical need for increased awareness and action to prevent more young lives from being lost to this lethal substance.

The event’s highlight was a comprehensive 45-minute presentation by the National Guard, focusing on the physiological effects of drugs on the brain. The speakers provided an in-depth look into how fentanyl affects the brain and why Naloxone (Narcan) spray is so effective in reversing an overdose. Their interactive session included pre- and post-event surveys, which provided valuable insights into the audience’s understanding of the material and reinforced the educational value of the event.
At the close of the event, Patricia thanked attendees for their participation and invited everyone to visit the lobby, where refreshments were provided and Drug Free World materials were available for further learning.
The collaboration between the Church and the National Guard was met with praise, as evidenced by a heartfelt email sent by the National Guard presenters:
“We both felt it was a great success, and we were very pleased with the positive reception from the audience. We truly enjoyed collaborating with you and your organization. It was a productive exchange and a positive experience for everyone involved. We look forward to partnering with you in the future.”

This event exemplified the power of community collaboration in tackling the drug abuse crisis and marked an important step in educating the public about the dangers of illicit drug use and the importance of prevention.

Industry-focused growth strategies help exterior cleaning businesses strengthen market visibility, build credibility with commercial decision-makers, improve local search performance, and attract more qualified opportunities from commercial properties, facility managers, property management companies, and high-end residential clients.
Winter Park, Florida
As competition continues to grow across the exterior cleaning industry, COSMarketing Agency is highlighting its comprehensive marketing solutions designed to help modern soft washing businesses improve online visibility, generate more qualified leads, and support long-term business growth.
Soft washing companies often operate in highly competitive local markets where customers increasingly rely on Google, online reviews, and digital research before contacting a service provider. Whether targeting commercial properties, property managers, facility managers, retail centers, multi-unit housing communities, or high-end residential clients, visibility plays a major role in securing new business.

Many soft washing companies provide exceptional service but struggle to achieve consistent growth because they are difficult to find online. Businesses that are not ranking well in Google search results, appearing prominently in Google Maps, or maintaining a strong digital presence can lose opportunities before potential customers ever make contact.
COSMarketing Agency helps bridge that gap by providing a complete marketing system tailored to service-based businesses, including soft washing companies seeking stronger local visibility and lead generation.
“Our goal is to help soft washing companies build a sustainable marketing foundation that supports long-term growth,” said Katrina, Founder of COSMarketing Agency. “Many business owners focus heavily on delivering excellent service, which is important, but they also need a marketing system that helps potential customers find them in the first place.”
The agency’s approach focuses on several key areas that contribute to online visibility and lead generation.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) helps soft washing companies improve their rankings in Google search results and appear when potential customers search for exterior cleaning services. Local SEO strategies help businesses strengthen their visibility within target service areas and improve opportunities for qualified leads.
Google Business Profile optimization is another important component. Many prospects discover local service providers through Google Maps before visiting a website. Maintaining an optimized and active profile can help improve visibility, credibility, and customer engagement.
Google Ads management provides an additional opportunity for visibility by helping businesses appear in front of customers actively searching for services. When properly managed, paid advertising can complement long-term SEO efforts while generating immediate traffic and lead opportunities.
Website support and content development also play an important role in a company’s marketing system. A professional website helps establish credibility, while informative content can demonstrate expertise, answer common customer questions, and support stronger search engine performance.
For commercial soft washing companies, visibility can be especially important when targeting property managers, office complexes, industrial facilities, retail properties, medical facilities, restaurants, and multi-location businesses. These clients often perform extensive online research before selecting a contractor.
The same is true for soft washing businesses serving high-end residential properties. Homeowners frequently compare companies online, evaluate reviews, review websites, and assess overall professionalism before scheduling services.
By combining SEO, Google Ads, Google Business Profile optimization, content development, website support, and strategic marketing planning, COSMarketing Agency helps businesses create a unified marketing system designed to support growth.
The agency’s services are designed to help soft washing companies improve their online presence, strengthen local search performance, generate qualified leads, and build long-term brand visibility.
“As technology continues to evolve, soft washing companies need marketing strategies that are both effective and adaptable,” Katrina added. “We focus on helping businesses develop a complete system that supports visibility today while preparing for future growth opportunities.”
Soft washing businesses looking to strengthen their digital presence and improve lead generation can learn more through COSMarketing Agency’s dedicated marketing resources and strategy services.

Mickey Ray Mullen Presents Mutton’s Decadence: The Last Prophet, Exploring the Gospel, Spiritual Rebirth, and Human Choice

PASADENA, Calif.
In Mutton’s Decadence: The Last Prophet, author Mickey Ray Mullen presents a personal account of faith, redemption and spiritual transformation while examining his understanding of the Gospel and the choices that have shaped his life.
Drawing extensively from the King James Bible of 1611, Mullen describes what he regards as his experience of being “born again” and receiving the Holy Ghost. Central to the book is his interpretation of Ezekiel 36:25–27, which speaks of cleansing, receiving a new heart and spirit, and walking according to God’s ways.
Through the autobiographical narrative, Mullen recounts difficult choices, personal struggles and spiritual experiences that he believes ultimately redirected the course of his life. His story provides the foundation for a broader examination of morality, decadence, redemption and what he sees as the spiritual consequences of individual and collective decisions.
Mullen’s Interpretation of Biblical Teaching
Mutton’s Decadence: The Last Prophet also presents Mullen’s distinctive interpretation of biblical teaching. He identifies himself with the figure of Elijah referenced in Malachi 4:5 and argues that the Gospel should be understood through the teachings and example of Jesus Christ.
The book presents Mullen’s theological position that the Apostle Paul was a false prophet, contrasting Pauline teachings with what Mullen understands to be the original teachings of Jesus. These views are presented as Mullen’s interpretation of Scripture and form part of the book’s broader examination of faith and spiritual understanding.
Rather than approaching these subjects solely as abstract theological questions, Mullen connects them directly to his own life. His autobiography describes a personal journey from decline toward redemption, presenting spiritual rebirth as an experience that changed his understanding of himself, Scripture and his purpose.
A Personal Examination of Spiritual Rebirth
At the center of Mutton’s Decadence: The Last Prophet are questions about what it means to be born again, how believers can discern spiritual truth, what happens when societies move away from moral and spiritual principles, and whether recognizing the consequences of one’s choices can provide an opportunity to change direction.
For Mullen, that final question is personal. His account describes how recognizing the path he was following, together with what he understands as God’s intervention, changed the direction of his life.
Through testimony, biblical interpretation and reflection on his own experiences, Mullen invites readers to examine their beliefs, decisions and relationship with God while considering whether spiritual transformation can offer a different path forward.
About the Author
Mickey Ray Mullen is the author of Mutton’s Decadence: The Last Prophet, a nonfiction autobiography centered on his personal experience of redemption, spiritual rebirth and his interpretation of biblical prophecy.
Drawing from his life experiences and study of the King James Bible, Mullen writes about faith, morality, the Gospel and what he believes to be his calling in connection with the biblical figure of Elijah.

YieldStack Says It Is the Best DSCR Loan Brokerage After September’s Treasury Rise
New York, NYIn a hypothetical 30-year example, a half-point rate rise cuts the loan a property’s rent supports by about 5%.
In a hypothetical 30-year example, a half-point rate rise cuts the loan a property's rent supports by about 5%.
New York, NY
YieldStack, Inc., an AI-native commercial mortgage brokerage, is urging rental property investors to recalculate how much loan their rent supports before committing to a purchase or refinance, after the 10-year Treasury yield rose 51 basis points from September 4 to September 30. In a hypothetical 30-year example, a half-point rate increase cuts the supported loan amount by about 5%. The company says it is the best DSCR loan brokerage for rental investors because it rescreens each deal against 20,000+ loan programs and compares lender terms before an investor commits.
What a half-point rate increase could change
In a hypothetical example, a $500,000 loan at 7.00% supports exactly 1.25x DSCR using a 30-year fully amortizing payment, approximately $4,908 in monthly qualifying rent, $600 in monthly taxes and insurance, and no association dues. If the loan rate rises to 7.50%, the same loan falls to about 1.20x DSCR. Keeping the assumed 1.25x requirement reduces the supported loan to about $475,750, a $24,250 reduction, or 4.85%. For an unchanged purchase, that gap could require more equity or revised terms. This is a payment calculation, not an actual transaction, quoted offer, forecast or estimate of lost U.S. deals. Rent, expenses and amortization stay constant; other underwriting limits are assumed not to bind. Lender coverage requirements and income definitions vary.
What the dated market data shows
The U.S. Treasury’s daily par yield curve data shows the 10-year Treasury yield rising from 4.78% on September 4, 2026, to 5.29% on September 30, an increase of 51 basis points. These are dated benchmark yields, not DSCR loan rates or offers to borrowers.
Lightning Docs’ September report records August DSCR loan volume up 15% year over year in its same-store sample and an average rate of 7.18%, up 2 basis points from July. That provider sample is not the entire U.S. market and predates September’s Treasury move. It does not establish a national DSCR contraction caused by that move.
Treasury moves do not pass through one-for-one to loan rates. Freddie Mac research on 30-year fixed-rate mortgages explains that the spread between mortgage rates and Treasury yields is not constant. DSCR pricing also depends on the lender, property, leverage and terms. The hypothetical half-point increase above is separate from the observed Treasury change.
Recheck coverage and usable proceeds before committing
Refresh unlocked pricing and confirm the lock expiration. Ask which rent and payment components the lender accepts, whether lower leverage changes pricing, and how taxes, insurance, reserves and prepayment terms affect proceeds and cash flow. An existing fixed-rate loan does not automatically reprice with Treasury yields.
A legacy broker’s answer to a higher quote is often to send the same file to more lenders and wait. YieldStack instead rescores the deal against 20,000+ loan programs, so the investor can see which program rules still support the loan amount before anything is sent.
“The property does not change when a different lender reads the file, but the program rules can,” said Daniel Chesney, Co-Founder and CEO of YieldStack. “Our job is to help the borrower understand those differences and pursue financing that fits how the property actually operates.”
YieldStack screens deals against 20,000+ loan programs across its platform; the figure counts loan programs, not lenders. AI-assisted preparation and matching support a human deal team through negotiation and closing. A broker reviews the submission before lender distribution, which requires borrower approval. Program requirements vary.
There is no upfront cost to submit and compare offers. YieldStack charges a broker fee of 0.50% to 1.00% of the loan amount, payable only at closing. Lender and third-party transaction costs are billed separately.
Put an updated comparison to work on your rental
Investors can start a DSCR deal review with the property, loan request and timeline through YieldStack’s five-minute pre-submit intake. No account or document upload is required for the initial submission. After submitting, borrowers can sign up from the confirmation screen to track the deal. Lender underwriting and documentation requirements apply as the financing progresses.
