YourUpdateTV

In recent years, plant-based milk alternatives like oatmilk have become incredibly popular, progressing from small coffee shops to the shelves of the largest supermarkets in the country. You may be surprised to learn that oatmilk has a variety of uses beyond your morning cup of coffee – including taking the place of traditional dairy in some of your most beloved recipes. Recently, Registered Dietician and Nutrition Expert, Mia Syn teamed up with Oatly to discuss the benefits of oatmilk and how to incorporate it into your favorite recipes during the holiday season. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/HhFWuhFS9CM Whether you’re dairy-free, vegan, or simply looking to switch things up, oatmilk is a versatile and nutritious option with plenty of benefits. Derived from plant-based ingredients, meaning its free from any animal-based byproducts, oatmilk provides a number of nutrients, including fiber and vitamin B12. Oatmilk is a great option for those with dietary restrictions, such as lactose intolerance or nut allergies. In general, oatmilk is also better for the climate when compared to dairy milk. The go-to for Mia is always Oatly. The world’s original and largest oatmilk company, Oatly offers a large array of products, from oatmilks to frozen desserts, that can be enjoyed individually or incorporated into some of your favorite recipes. Mia shared some great recipes you can try at home, created by Chef Amanda Cohen, owner of Dirt Candy, an award-winning, Michelin-starred vegetable restaurant in New York City. To accompany your next holiday dinner? Roasted Carrots with an Oatgurt Dressing. A simple and easy way to brighten up a classic side dish, it starts with a cup of plain Oatly Oatgurt mixed with different herbs, spices and olive oil. And for dessert? A deliciously fun twist on classic pumpkin pie, Pumpkin Pie Oat Bars made with Full Fat Oatly Oatmilk.

Why You Should Get a Digital Vehicle Inspection From Your Auto Repair Shop

AutoTech IQ

A digital vehicle inspection (DVI) is the perfect upgrade to an old process. DVIs hold shops accountable to the motorist through transparency and identify trends in wear and tear. Though not offered by all auto repair shops, DVIs can give you a true bill of health for your vehicle without you having to foot the bill for unnecessary repairs. What Is a Digital Vehicle Inspection and How Does It Work? A DVI is typically done with a tablet that performs a 35-70 point check. This multipoint check includes media and plainly worded information about your car's health. After all of this is recorded, the information is stored digitally and delivered to you and the auto repair shop’s database. DVIs allow technicians to get granular with highly detailed information. During the inspection, each section is broken into a color coding system of green, yellow and red. Green — Good to go Yellow — Needs repair or maintenance soon Red — Needs action now Advantages of Digital Vehicle Inspections A DVI is a superior option to its paper counterpart in many ways. Here are five of those advantages. You See What the Tech Sees One of the strongest cases for getting a DVI is transparency because you see what techs see. DVIs allow you to have an intangible living document that you can store and share without the risk of it getting lost. Where service advisors once had to explain a problem that a motorist may not understand, DVIs allow you to be educated while saving you time and possibly money. In the past, you would have to set aside time to talk to your service advisor and make choices based on a verbal assessment, but a DVI with photo, video and audio aspects will help you make educated choices. Another perk of a DVI is that you can engage with your service provider on your time by leaving comments and questions within the document itself. When you can understand a detailed assessment of your inspection results in an organized format, you can take the guesswork out of what you need to have done. Less Paperwork Less paperwork means less loss. The footprint that a DVI creates is physically minute but won’t be easily lost. Finding your inspection can be as easy as searching for the email. The other benefit of going paperless and getting a DVI is that there is rarely actionable information on traditional inspections. The lack of clarity on a regular inspection sheet isn’t easily read or presented in simple terms like a DVI is. Audio/Visual Insights With the augmented use of media, technicians can easily go through the DVI process and capture the problems at their source. By finding and explaining what problems are happening, you’ll end up spending less time getting clarification and less money because you won’t end up paying for things you don’t need. Ease of Inspections Because DVIs allow a technician to quickly walk through each step, monotonous tasks are removed. Things a tech would have previously had to write out are replaced by typed notes, photos, videos and sometimes audio. Quicker Repairs With all of the benefits combined, a DVI means quicker repairs at the right time for the right things. With this top-down look at your vehicle's health, you'll know your vehicle's problem areas before they become a bigger problem. Get a Bill of Health for Your Vehicle Just like a doctor's visit, the first action is always checking the vital signs, independent of what the actual concern is. The DVI accomplishes exactly that for your vehicle. Creating a bill of health using simple-to-understand terms and augmented with images and videos gives you a complete overview and allows for budgeting and deferred maintenance without risking the vehicle's health being compromised. For that reason, DVIs are often called Digital Vehicle Health Inspections or Digital Auto Checkups. It’s Time to Go Digital Even if you want a hard copy, going paperless with a DVI is harmless — the results can always be printed. Just like a person goes to the doctor for a yearly physical, a DVI will give you the best picture of the health of your vehicle. AutoTechIQ empowers car owners to be confident about the money spent on their vehicles at certified shops.

Recently, my car started sounding strange and I am not sure what to do.

AutoTech IQ

Modern vehicles are highly computerized and completely different from the mechanically controlled automobiles of 30 years ago. Although computerization has made vehicles much more reliable and fuel-efficient, car symptoms like squealing, squeaking, humming, growling, and other noises still occur. Our tips help car and truck owners take the next steps after their vehicle makes odd sounds. Can I repair the car myself to eliminate the noise? Most of the symptoms known to AutoTechIQ, which collects millions of work orders across the country, need a professional inspection. A key element of successful auto repair is the ability to educate the customer about why the repair needs to happen and what safety, cost avoidance, and environmental impact it imposes. Then, with a list of options on the table, the customer can decide the best outcome for their vehicle and their goals. Just go to AutoTechIQ.com and use the shop selector to find the best-suited shop in your area. AutoTechIQ introduced three certification levels for the shops featured on the map, so make sure you select the right one for you. AutoTechIQ.com has made educational content available to you in an easy-to-digest way and with a minimum of the technical lingo experts often say. What are commonly occurring car noises? We'll list common problematic noises cars make below. If you're experiencing any of those, listen to their reference noise in the YouTube link and send it to your trusted auto repair shop for reference. Squealing noise when driving Car sounds like a lawn mower Car won’t start but not making any noise Humming noise while driving What other symptoms should I look for? Noise is often the most dominant symptom your car makes but not the only one. For example, a failed serpentine belt pulley can make a very noticeable noise and create a distinct odor of burnt rubber. Reoccurring problems are especially concerning, and it is important to describe the context of these issues to your trusted auto repair shop professionals. Knowing the characteristics of the problem helps the professional to eliminate up to 90% of the potential root causes and saves you a lot of money for unnecessary diagnostics or repair. How do I find a professional auto repair shop I can trust? There has been a significant change in how former mom-and-pop shops focus on repairing vehicles. Now, they focus on helping you determine your vehicle's best course of action by meeting your goals for longevity and dependability. What should be my budget when taking my car to an auto repair shop? Traditionally, most car owners follow the service interval recommendation provided by their trusted auto repair shop or just go to the shop when problems arise and let the shop fix them. Most of the time, the latter is the most expensive way of taking care of your vehicle if you add up the cost of each visit. Using a preventive maintenance plan offered by your trusted auto repair shop will open up the opportunity to talk about future expenses or what is called deferred services. You can start budgeting future expenses and still save money since preventive maintenance is significantly more cost-effective than paying the repair cost when problems occur. Condition-based inspections take the preventive maintenance concept even further. Your auto repair shop conducts a vehicle inspection every time you drop off your vehicle. The results are compared to previous inspection results to determine wear and tear patterns. Based on those patterns, the best course of action is presented to you. Why is it important to ask for a Digital Auto Checkup? Many auto repair shops listen to your concern and will provide a solution right away by taking care of the problem you are describing. When you go to any doctor with a symptom, does the doctor immediately go to the concern you are expressing? Typically they don’t do that unless you are in the emergency room. Instead, vital signs will be recorded first. The same can be true for your vehicle. You first establish baseline health before addressing the particular symptom. The bill of health of a vehicle is called the Digital Auto Checkup or Digital Vehicle Health Inspection. What is AutoTechIQ’s advantage to me as a car owner? The majority of car owners dread the appointment at an auto repair shop. The shops in the AutoTechIQ network are selected based on criteria putting your education and professional service as their main focus. Three criteria not used in other business directories are: The business has received at least 100 Google reviews with an average score of more than 4.5 out of 5.0. A digital vehicle health inspection is used consistently to examine the health of your vehicle and covers at least 35 topics. The documentation of mint and problem conditions uses well-documented images and videos to give you complete transparency.

As Iger Returns, Disney Must Focus on Vulnerabilities in China

National Legal & Policy Center

As The Walt Disney Company announced on Sunday the return of former executive chairman Robert Iger as interim CEO for two years, following the disastrous leadership of Robert Chapek – which drove share value down by 40% this year – a shareholder activist is calling upon the iconic Hollywood executive to scrutinize the company’s business in communist China. National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), which earlier this year called Disney to account for its “complicity in China genocide” at its annual meeting, again will seek disclosure and transparency over its business activities in the far eastern nation with a shareholder proposal it has introduced for the company’s next meeting in March 2023. “We have our doubts about Bob Iger’s return and his willingness to reexamine the company’s relationship with the communist Chinese,” said Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project. “After all, under his leadership he launched both the Shanghai and Hong Kong theme parks, and then gave majority control of Shanghai to a consortium of Chinese state-controlled companies. Now Shanghai Disney is locked down under the communists’ ‘Zero COVID’ policy and Hong Kong no longer operates with any semblance of freedom.” “Shareholders must get a better understanding of the further risks to stock value with the company’s entanglements with brutal dictators.” The text of NLPC’s proposal for a “Communist China Audit” report for Disney’s 2023 annual meeting follows: RESOLVED: Shareholders request that, beginning in 2023, The Walt Disney Company report annually to shareholders on the nature and extent to which corporate operations depend on, and are vulnerable to, Communist China, which is a serial human rights violator, a geopolitical threat, and an adversary to the United States. The report should exclude confidential business information but provide shareholders with a sense of the Company’s reliance on activities conducted within, and under control of, the Communist Chinese government. Supporting Statement: American companies doing business in Communist China is a controversial public policy issue. See, e.g., “Doing business in China is difficult. A clash over human rights is making it harder,” April 2, 2021, https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/02/business/nike-china-western-business-intl-hnk/index.html. The Walt Disney Company does business in – and relies on raw materials, finished products, broadcasts, entertainment venues, theme parks, labor and/or services from – entities in China. China is an established serial violator of human and political rights. China is also a hostile adversary of the U.S. for many reasons, including: — China intends to displace the U.S. as the lone global superpower by 2049; — The U.S. has committed to defend Taiwan, which China has militaristically asserted is part of its country and may attempt to seize by force; — U.S.-China relations are tense over a number of issues including China’s military expansion; egregious human rights violations; actions related to the COVID pandemic; intellectual property theft; relentless espionage; elimination of freedom in Hong Kong; and environmental pollution. China has also indicated that it would use its industrial capabilities for strategic purposes against adversaries. Many Chinese companies – which are ultimately under the control of the Communist government – are vulnerable to the U.S. Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, do not adhere to basic auditing standards, and are therefore untrustworthy. China – and by extension the companies it controls – is also identified in the U.S. State Department’s 2022 Trafficking in Persons Report as a state sponsor of human trafficking. It is now subject to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, which imposes strict verification of parts and products imported from China, that they are not generated from slave labor. Disney’s extensive ties to China breed reputational risk for the company also. For example, while the company funds groups that promote the interests of homosexual and transgender individuals, the Communist government persistently and vigorously cracks down on those forms of identity within its borders. A July 2022 joint statement from the leaders of the British and American domestic intelligence agencies warned that the Communist Chinese Party is the greatest threat to the international order. “We consistently see that it’s the Chinese government that poses the biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security, and by ‘our,’ I mean both of our nations, along with our allies in Europe and elsewhere,” said FBI Director Christopher Wray. Given the controversial, if not dangerous, nature of doing business in and with China, shareholders have the right to know the extent to which The Walt Disney Company’s business operations depend on Communist China. Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.

Minuteman Press International Inc

Dawn and Dean Seifert, owners of two Minuteman Press franchises in Youngstown and Warren, Ohio, are celebrating 15 years in business for their Youngstown location, which opened in May 2007. Minuteman Press in Youngstown is located at 3200 Belmont Avenue, Youngstown, OH 44505. In January 2020, Dawn and Dean purchased Minuteman Press in Warren located at 2460 Elm Road NE, Unit 500, Warren, OH 44483. Prior to franchising with Minuteman Press, Dean grew up in a family-owned print shop while Dawn worked in banking. They decided to own a business “to set our own destiny,” says Dawn. When asked about their success and longevity over the past 15 years, Dean says, “There are 4 keys to our business: Being able to have two of our four children work with us in the family business. Our customer service – we never tell a client that something can’t be done. We update our equipment when needed to make sure we operate efficiently. Following the Minuteman Press franchise system and marketing to our clients and community.” Dawn adds the following insights on how they have successfully marketed the business. She says, “There are 4 primary ways we have grown our business: Getting involved in the community and sponsoring various local events. Visiting our clients on a regular basis. Providing customers with our branded promotional items. Utilizing email marketing campaigns.” For Dawn and Dean, their high-demand products from clients include “custom printed brochures, branded promotional products, and full-scale direct mail marketing campaigns that include graphic design, printing, and mailing.” Dean says, “People still like to have something to hold onto and printing is the perfect way to put your brand in their hands and make a lasting impression.” Today, the local business community is looking bright. Dean shares, “We are excited to be part of a community along Liberty’s Belmont Avenue Business Corridor, which is the Mahoning Valley’s home base for many family-owned businesses. We are local businesses supporting each other and our customers. One of the biggest rewards of owning this business is building real relationships with our clients and having them become part of our family.” As part of the Minuteman Press franchise system for 15 years, Dawn and Dean share their three key benefits of franchising: “The corporate and local regional offices are always just a phone call away. The training was perfect for us and laid the foundation for how we operate our business. The Minuteman Press FLEX software helps us manage our business – it is easy to learn and operate/maintain.” As for what advice they would give to other businesses owners right now, Dean says, “Don’t try to do everything yourself. Also, treat your employees right and share your growth with them.” For more information about Minuteman Press in Youngstown, Ohio, visit https://minuteman.com/us/locations/oh/youngstown/ For more information about Minuteman Press in Warren, Ohio, visit https://minuteman.com/us/locations/oh/warren/ Learn more about #1 rated Minuteman Press franchise opportunities and to see Minuteman Press franchise reviews, visit https://minutemanpressfranchise.com Contact Details Minuteman Press International Chris Biscuiti +1 631-249-1370 cbiscuiti@mpihq.com Company Website https://minutemanpressfranchise.com
