I Replaced My Morning Coffee With a Ginger Shot Years Ago, and It Seriously Changed My Life
To say I was a kid who loved coffee would be an understatement. I was obsessed with it. During the summers I ordered Frappuccinos with loads of whipped cream on top. In the wintertime, it was Dunkaccinos from Dunkin Donuts, the hot chocolate-coffee hybrid that tasted like it was straight out of a dream. When other tweens were drinking soda and chocolate milk during lunchtime, I somehow managed to get my hands on the chilled "to-go" beverages from Starbucks — you know the ones that came in the glass bottle? Yes, I was hooked.
However, all of this changed during college. It was just around the time that I graduated from Mocha Frappuccino to Caramel Macchiato with soy milk that I started feeling coffee's negative effects. The caffeine made me jittery, anxious, and unfocused — symptoms that only intensified if I drank it on an empty stomach. I knew I needed to make a change and quick.
One day while walking around Whole Foods in a cranky, caffeinated haze, I came across a glass case full of ginger shots. I decided on a whim that this is what I would replace my coffee with, and I've never looked back. Here are all the ways it improved my health and my life.


In the event that you’ve seen The Price Is Right, odds are you’ve gotten a look at Plinko, a diversion in which competitors remain over a board and drop a chip through one of five openings.
The spaces prompt a system of pegs that arbitrarily modify the course of the chip, making its arrangement at the base of the board relatively difficult to anticipate.
On the off chance that you’ve at any point attempted natural promoting on Facebook, it can feel a ton like dropping a chip into a Plinko board.
You can settle on sensible choices about where, when, and how to showcase your substance, however so much is going ahead out of sight – among ones, zeroes, and calculations – that can totally divert from your objectives.
You can examine the arrangement of “pegs,” be consider on the space you think will prompt the ultimate objective, and expectation your substance achieves the proposed target, yet the sheer number of pegs makes it unfathomably hard to foresee how well it will be gotten.
Regarding Plinko and Facebook, the Butterfly Effect is the possibility that little changes can cause fantastic impacts in complex frameworks. At the end of the day, including an additional peg can totally change the whole session of Plinko.
I prefer not to be the unwanted messenger, yet Facebook just added another peg to its positioning calculation.
To stay aware of Facebook’s speed, and also the other interpersonal organizations, promoting masters should acknowledge some hard facts. As an advertiser, you currently need to kick your promoting abilities into overdrive; you’ve been lingering for a really long time.
The ongoing Facebook news channel changes could totally crush your advertising methodology, however just if your showcasing system was misinformed in any case.
We should investigate a couple of the reasons why the new positioning technique is really a positive development for organizations hoping to enhance the nature of natural activity.
Facebook news channel refresh
Screen capture civility of Facebook
Who loses and who wins?
To stay away from any perplexity, most natural advertisers are likely going to lose activity. Except if you are an extraordinarily skilled advertiser, your pages don’t see countless discussions.
The declaration originated from Facebook’s Head of News Feed, Adam Mosseri:
“Throughout the following couple of months, we’ll be influencing updates to positioning so individuals to have more chances to communicate with the general population they think about.”
“There will be less substance straightforwardly from (proficient) Pages.”
“There will be less video. Video is an imperative piece of the biological community… But it’s more latent in nature. There’s less discussion on recordings, especially open recordings.”
A few specialists trust that the change will totally discourage a few brands from giving an exertion for natural movement on Facebook.
As per Burton Hohman, Paid Search Manager, best case scenario Company, the progressions “will push marks considerably promote far from Facebook on the off chance that they weren’t at that point burning through cash on the stage.”
Since the positioning change doesn’t have anything to do with paid pursuit, most organizations utilizing Facebook promotions won’t see a lot of a distinction.
Hohman proceeds to ponder whether Facebook will inevitably “move into the advertisement domain to begin rolling out improvements.” He proceeds, “Yet I don’t see that occurrence for some time in light of the fact that Facebook is as yet a business and the main thing they think about is profiting.”
The news channel changes come when steadfast Instagrammers are starting to gripe of over-publicizing and the absence of individual substance on Instagram.
mass migration to Vero
Screen capture graciousness of Vero
Close to the finish of February, Instagrammers started a mass migration to Vero, a social sharing application discharged in 2015 that is totally free from advertisements. Vero saw such a high flood of clients that its servers immediately smashed. In any case, that didn’t prevent it from ascending to the highest point of the free applications list on the App Store.
The fact of the matter is individuals are losing tolerance for conventional promotions; they nearly pine for the social side, the associate survey, and the alluded item. Advertisers need to comprehend that companionship is rapidly turning into an essential nature of the best advertisers.
Then again, need and higher rankings will be given to open posts that see earnest commitment as important remarks and offers.
So if most organizations will lose natural movement, why roll out this improvement by any stretch of the imagination? Facebook has really turned out and recognized “that latently expending articles or recordings that don’t start commitment or association is terrible for a man’s temperament.”
Robert Kraut, Professor at Carnegie Mellon University, depicts the early long periods of the web when clients were just collaborating with outsiders on the web. This absence of significant association prompted forlornness.
Research today recommends that when web clients communicate and have important discussions online with loved ones, their prosperity increments. In this way, advertisers should put forth some intense inquiries ideal about at this point:
It is safe to say that we are outsiders to our group of onlookers?
How would we take advantage of the hover of trust of our intended interest group?
How might we guarantee we don’t double-cross that trust?
These inquiries are extremely simply extraordinary variants of the deep rooted inquiry for advertisers: How would we fabricate genuine client faithfulness? The progressions to Facebook’s channel are only the following sign of our need to utilize dependable showcasing strategies.
What to do and what to keep away from
As a social publicist, you don’t simply need drives, you need quality leads. You need drives that as of now have the seed of trust planted inside them. Quality leads are elusive, yet Facebook’s News Feed changes may really confine them.
As indicated by Social Media Examiner, the kinds of substance that will currently observe more appropriation on Facebook are general posts from loved ones, companion posts looking for suggestions or counsel, and those uncommon news articles and recordings that start genuine discussion.
The calculation change implies you should center around posting friendly exchanges:
Live recordings (six fold the number of communications as general recordings)
Big name posts (influencer advertising)
Neighborhood occasions/business posts
News/hotly debated issues
As such, most prompts your business will probably come as a suggestion from a dear companion or relative. This implies those greatly few organizations that do figure out how to break into the select club of natural activity on Facebook will probably observe an expansion in quality leads.
In the event that you have not as of now been doing as such, you ought to consider Facebook a companion of the client. Its activity, at first glance, isn’t to pander to your necessities. Rather, the primary objective is to discover and encourage profound associations between clients.
Screen capture cordiality of Sprout Social
As an advertiser, you definitely realize that informal referrals are an incredible method to increase faithful clients; this is your in. Spotlight on natural substance that provides food 100 percent to the client and maintains a strategic distance from any trace of self-advancement.
You should realize that “commitment goading” is a wily strategy and that Facebook will punish and downgrade any substance that contains it. Such posts center around picking up remarks, likes, and offers, not out of a need to interface individuals, but rather from a longing to seize Facebook’s positioning calculation.
Photograph obligingness of Facebook
Advertisers should know better and Facebook has turned out to be sufficiently shrewd to get these strategies. Commitment bedeviling is showed through the accompanying honor subtitles:
LIKE this on the off chance that you LOVE pizza!
Vote in favor of your most loved sustenance underneath!
Offer with 10 companions keeping in mind the end goal to qualify!

June is well underway (note to Mother Nature: could you please warm it up a little more, and keep it that way?), and summer training and racing are full speed ahead for many of us. I am back in the studio after a short break — anyone else find the month of May incredibly busy?! — and I was excited to welcome Kelly Yauk back as a guest on the show. Kelly, whom guests will remember is a hilarious northern Michigan runner, mother of two girls, and former badass collegiate rower for Michigan State University, is the race director of Stars, Stripes & Splatter Color Run 5K held each summer at the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa near Traverse City.

We caught up on latest running races and adventures, including how Kelly overdressed for this year’s Bayshore 10K but made the most of it anyway (and has some fun stories to boot), and some exciting things coming up for her (she has big running plans for this fall, with her former rowing teammates). Kelly also shares all the details of this month’s Stars, Stripes & Splatter, which is set for Saturday, June 29 at the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa near Traverse City. The 9 a.m. 5K is untimed, super family-friendly and features, you guessed it, lots of Fourth of July-themed color and festivities. A race discount code for this event also is shared during the show.
I also give an honest update on my training so far for this summer’s IRONMAN 70.3 Traverse City, set for Aug. 25. Finding the time to fit in so many workouts — running, biking, swimming — is proving to be challenging, but I’m determined to get on track and keep going.

Four hours in the slow cooker makes these hot wings beautifully tender; a further 30 minutes in a hot oven gets them crisp and brown. Serve these wings before the main event as a substantial game-day snack, or as the centerpiece of a meal, alongside a big crunchy salad to keep things cool.
We recommend serving with a strong cocktail, such as our Long Island Iced Tea.
- Yield: 8 servings as an hors d’oeuvre, 4 as a main dish
- Difficulty: Easy
- Total: 4 hrs 30 mins
- Active: 15 mins
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 1 (5-ounce) bottle hot sauce
- 3 pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- Melt the butter and add it to the crock of your slow cooker along with the oregano, onion and garlic powders, soy sauce, tomato paste, liquid smoke, and hot sauce. Whisk everything together to form a sauce.
- Add the wings to the crock and stir to coat them with the sauce. Cover the crock and set the slow cooker to high. Cook for 4 hours.
- Just before the wings are done, heat the oven to 400°F and get out 2 baking sheets. With tongs, remove the wings from the slow cooker and arrange in a single layer on the baking sheets.
- Place the wings in the hot oven and bake until they’re browned and the top surface is crisp, about 30 minutes.
- While the wings are baking, transfer the cooking liquid from the slow cooker to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the wings from the oven and transfer to a large bowl. Add the sauce and gently toss until the wings are evenly coated. Serve while hot.

Future of King/Drew Medical Center Considered
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is considering two options for Martin Luther King/Drew University Medical Center in south Los Angeles after it stops receiving federal funds, the Los Angeles Times reports (Rosenblatt/Ornstein, Los Angeles Times, 9/27).
CMS on Friday notified King/Drew administrators that the facility failed an unannounced inspection and would lose eligibility to participate in Medicare and Medi-Cal. The hospital will lose about $200 million -- half of its budget -- in federal funding annually (California Healthline, 9/25).
King/Drew will not be certified as a Medicare provider after Nov. 30, but the facility will receive some federal funding for an additional 30 days (Ornstein et al., Los Angeles Times, 9/26).
After a second day of meetings to discuss the future of King/Drew, supervisors are focusing on the possibility of transferring administration of the county-owned hospital to a private entity or another county hospital.
A statement from the department indicated that any plan to maintain services at the hospital would require it "to be radically restructured."
A statement by Bruce Chernof, director of the county Department of Health Services, said, "The department is committed to finding a model that keeps critical inpatient services on the site."
Supervisor Gloria Molina said Chernof is scheduled next week to present to the board a report on options for the facility (Los Angeles Times, 9/27).
The Department of Health Services on Monday began evaluating the capacity of other hospitals in the area to accommodate patients who would no longer be able to receive treatment at King/Drew.
The University of California-Los Angeles David Geffen School of Medicine also on Monday announced plans for an "orderly transition" of about 50 physician residents from clinical rotations at King/Drew to hospitals administered by UCLA (Los Angeles Times, 9/26).
The Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education on Tuesday asked Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science, which is affiliated with King/Drew, to submit short- and long-term plans on medical residents' ongoing training, according to ACGME spokesperson Julie Jacob.
Drew University President Susan Kelly said the university is considering several options, including arranging for Drew medical residents to work at other hospitals (Los Angeles Times, 9/27).
Summaries of a recent editorial and two opinion pieces addressing King/Drew are provided below.
Los Angeles Times: "The best way the county can help the community now is to admit its failure at King/Drew and allow a more competent party to take it over," a Times editorial states. Contracting with a private firm to operate the facility "is by far the best choice," according to the editorial (Los Angeles Times, 9/26).
- Erin Aubry Kaplan, Los Angeles Times: "Problems amassed over 30 years" at King/Drew "cannot be redressed in two," but the county "should be able to get it together enough to keep afloat a single 252-bed hospital," Kim writes in a Times opinion piece. "King/Drew is now closer to the grave than it has ever been" (Kaplan, Los Angeles Times, 9/27).
- Steve Lopez, Los Angeles Times: "Although there have no doubt always been good and dedicated employees fulfilling a noble mission" at King/Drew, it "has long had a rotten culture of sloth because of civil service protection and weak-kneed politicians who feared that cracking down would bring cries of racism," Lopez writes in his "Points West" column in the Times. According to Lopez, King/Drew "is a sinkhole for [county residents'] money" (Lopez, Los Angeles Times, 9/27).
Several broadcast programs included discussions on the future of King/Drew:
- KCET's "Life & Times": The program on Wednesday is scheduled to include an interview with Charles Ornstein, health policy reporter for the Los Angeles Times (Zavala, "Life & Times," KCET, 9/27). The complete transcript and audio of the program in RealPlayer will be available online after the broadcast.
- KCRW's "Which Way, L.A.?": The segment includes comments from Ornstein (Olney, "Which Way, L.A.?," KCRW, 9/25). The complete segment is available online in RealPlayer.
- KPCC's "AirTalk": The segment includes comments from Jim Lott, executive vice president of the Hospital Association of Southern California; Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald (D-Calif.); Ornstein; and Zev Yaroslavsky, a Los Angeles County supervisor (Mantle, "AirTalk," KPCC, 9/25). The complete segment is available online in RealPlayer.
- KPCC's "KPCC News": The segment includes comments from Millender-McDonald (Julian, "KPCC News," KPCC, 9/25). The complete segment is available online in RealPlayer.
- KPCC's "KPCC News": The segment includes comments from Lott; Millender-McDonald; Antionette Smith Epps, CEO of King/Drew; Princess Sikes, president emeritus of the Greater Watts-Willowbrook Chamber of Commerce; and Earnest Smith, a pediatric cardiologist in the area (Myrow, "KPCC News," KPCC, 9/26). The complete segment is available online in RealPlayer.
- KQED's "The California Report": The segment includes comments from Lott, Millender-McDonald and Sikes (Myrow, "The California Report," KQED, 9/26). The complete segment is available online in RealPlayer.

We just bid adieu to the year 2015 and it is time for our very own form of Apeksita. Indian astrologists have scientifically developed tools and techniques to predict the future. In essence, they used astronomy to predict the affairs of men, whether in personal or professional matters. This prospective glance in Sanskrit is known as Apeksita. It is human nature to be obsessed about the future. As a lifelong student of the stock market, I think it is important to reflect on the Apeksita of the markets in 2016, though not trying to portray myself in the shoes of a market astrologist.
The bumpy ride which closed off 2015 is expected to continue in 2016 for investors. Emerging markets, once the key engine of global economic growth, has come to an abrupt halt. The youthful years of China economic development has decelerated. Russia is expected to be entering into a major economic chaos, driven by a combination of factors, including low energy prices, collapse of its currency, central government economy mismanagement and a number of economic sanctions. Brazil is facing similar economic fate like Russia. Outside the emerging countries spaces, things are looking murky as well. European countries are yet to come out of the death spiral. Tepid growth in US is yet to show further traction. Further rate hike may cause financial tremors across the globe. The global economic situation, at this point in time, is akin to a barrel full of gunpowder, which can go off any time. The financial market meltdown since the start of 2016 is a testimony that the blast did occur (S& P 500 -7.5%, Nikkei -7.4%, Hang Seng -9.9%, BSE Sensex -6.6% in dollar term). This toing and froing of global stock markets is expected to continue in the short to medium term.
Last November terrorists attack in Paris, social and economic mess in Syria, diplomatic tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran are poignant reminder that a tiny spark may cause a huge fire in the peace and harmony of the world economy. A classic example to justify the economic consequences of rivalry between any OPEC members cannot be underestimated. Any tensions between these countries may cause oil price either to shoot up or go down. It may inch higher due to subdued supply or go down due to scaling up of massive oil reserves. On both counts, financial markets may be on tenterhooks. Oil price is already battered by the twin pressure of excess supply and subdued global economic growth. Geopolitical and terrorist threat are dangerous watershed having dire economic and financial woes. Policymakers must face up to the reality and take responsibility for both their actions and inactions, though success are not guaranteed either way.
‘No country is an island entire of itself’ – (John Donne). Mauritius has recognised this and has become fully integrated into the world economy by way of trade in goods and services. For the past few years the Mauritian economy has stagnated, hovering around the 4% GDP growth. Youth unemployment is a source of worry due to a mismatch between the industry demand and education supply. The investment rate is hovering below the 20% mark. For job creation, increase in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is a must. Recent roadshows by the current governments in Malaysia, Middle East and India are expected to boost the inflows of capital. Presently, the emphasis should not only be geared towards public investment in infrastructure viz ports, dams and roads. The development strategies must also include a good dose of private markets development, human capital development (skills and training) and sustainable reforms in institutions and governance.
Nearly $ 3.2 trillion has been wiped off global stocks since the start of 2016 and yet nobody expected (apeksita) this bloodbath. A sense of 2008 ‘Deja Vu’ economic and financial crisis is not expected. Financial and economic forecasting is turning to be a difficult science these days; even witchcraft business is bearing the brunt of forecasting. As investors, we need to get accustomed to low economic growth and one should enter the financial market at good prices, in companies displaying excellent economic moat.

CECCO is disappointed with the decision of the Department of Foreign Affairs to expel the Eritrean Consul to Canada, Mr. Semere Ghebremariam O’Micael. This unnecessary escalation in the relationship between Canada and Eritrea is unfortunate. If indeed such acts of extortion are alleged to have occurred we would expect the RCMP to investigate and release their findings to the public.
How nice to see Canada taking a very hard line with the government or Eritrea and its attempts to impose a diaspora tax on Eritrean citizens now living in Canada. This country really does have a backbone when it comes to standing up to oppression and injustice.

The practice of rock’n’roll is replete with style. Leather jackets, stovepipe denim jeans, gym boots and a pirate’s hat worth of garish tattoos. A sneering anti-establishment attitude and the abrasive discourse of rebellion. Nobody ever conquered rock’n’roll with complicity and acquiescence. Profanities and substance abuse, behavioural excess and public offence. Buy the manual, learn the script, take the classes.

Loud Mag, Brian Giffin, 1st November, 2012
Years ago, Sebastian Chase made a promise to his lifelong friend Ian Rilen that he would release three of his albums. Now that the time is right, six years after Rilen’s death, for the last of those to appear, Chase has resurrected the famous Phantom Records to honour that commitment. Rilen didn’t stand for fame or fortune, which is why you probably know his bands – Rose Tattoo, X, Hell to Pay – but not him. Ian Rilen stood for rock n roll, and rock n roll is all over this album, lovingly packaged inside a hardback cover with an 80-page book of photos, art and dedications from those who knew and loved him best.

Ian Rilen & the Love Addicts
FORGET the star rating when it comes to the final album from one of this country’s most passionate, rebellious and loved musicians – Ian Rilen was quite simply a star.
The original Bad Boy for Love – he wrote and played on Rose Tattoo’s most well-known song – Rilen was a brilliant, cheeky and eternally romantic star to the many fans he made over nearly four decades, to his family and his many, many friends. He died, aged 59, in 2006 after battling cancer, but not before making one more helluva rockin’ album…

Too many agencies; no action taken

Remember the old but true saying "Too many chiefs, not enough Indians?"
This appears to be all too representative of our officials who are supposed to be in charge of the latest Hurricane Katrina evacuation, cleanup, etc.
Everyone in Louisiana knew the New Orleans situation -- below sea level, bowl shaped -- and what could happen one day under the high circumstance of a Category 4 or 5 hurricane, what was done -- nothing. Now with the all-too-many deaths and the destruction of the Big Easy, the cost of renewing and all is unthinkable.
Someone left the barn door open, no need closing it now -- the horse is gone.
If the money that is being broken loose now was used some years ago, even as late as last year July 15, 2004, when William Clifford Smith, a Houma civil engineer and land surveyor since 1958, a presidential appointee to the Mississippi River Commission, reported his findings to Congress, he explained in detail what was needed, also what would happen if a Category 4 or 5 hurricane would hit; as we now know Smith was absolutely correct in every bit of his findings and report.
Another old-but-true saying: "Too many cooks spoils the soup." We have too many departments in government, instead of blending the talents. The overlapping of authority gets all mixed up, homeland security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Report: Walt Anderson will work as referee for Dolphins-Patriots
|10.25.13 at 8:15 am ET|
Walt Anderson will work as the referee for Sunday’s Dolphins-Patriots game, according to our friends at FootballZebras.com.
Anderson, a retired dentist and current Big 12 coordinator of officials, has worked two Super Bowls over the course of his career, Super Bowl XXXV (where he worked as a line judge) and XLV (where he was the lead official).
When it comes to New England, this is his second Patriots game of the 2013 season — he worked as the referee for the regular-season opener against the Bills in Buffalo. (In that one, New England was flagged for four penalties for a total of 36 yards, while the Bills were hit with 10 penalties for 75 yards.) Prior to that, his last game involving New England was the second contest of the 2011 season when the Patriots met the Chargers at Gillette Stadium. He also worked the 2004 AFC title game in Pittsburgh between the Patriots and Steelers, a game that had just three penalties (one on New England, two on Pittsburgh) all afternoon.

Eating healthy is essential to daily life no matter your age or weight. Many thin people think they can eat whatever they want. You will value a nutritionally sound diet more once you have read this advice.
Another helpful approach is to eat healthier versions of the favorite foods that you like. It is key to understand the nutritional value of the foods you eat, understand the right alternatives and choose wisely when you swap. The job of doing this has become easier these days, since many restaurants are offering nutritional information about their menus.
Cut down on portions when eating out by sharing all or some of your food with your dining partner. Even a small dish such as an entree can be rich in calories and fat. By splitting the meal you will save calories and also save money. That way, it is possible to enjoy dining out but not sink your dietary goals.
Use artificial sweeteners in lieu of sugar. Excessive sugar can result in many adverse health problems, like heart disease. Try using artificial sweeteners like Stevia or Splenda. You won’t miss the sugar at all.
Smoothies are fun and healthy. Here is a tip that will improve the already delicious smoothie to being more nutritious. You can add some flax-seed oil to your smoothie if you need some omega 3 or some cocoa powder for an antioxidant-rich element. These ingredients will both give your flavor a boost and add some extra nutritional punch to the smoothie.
Whether or not you are a vegetarian, it’s beneficial to eat two to three vegetarian meals weekly. This will help you reduce the amount of fat you eat and you will find that vegetarian food tastes good.
Have you tried a healthy puree of peaches, pears or berries? This sweet spread can be used to dip pretzels or pita chips. Try incorporating different kinds of fruits in your diet so it does not become mundane.
Get them to try different foods by describing the look and feel, not the taste. You may interest them by describing the texture.
Foods with vitamin B6 can help combat depression. Science shows that B6 helps regulate the body’s levels of serotonin. An imbalance of serotonin is a major cause of depression. Chicken breast, asparagus and wheat germ are all foods that contain high levels of vitamin B6. In the winter months, serotonin levels are even more important.
Try eating baked foods over fried foods. Baked foods are usually better for you and they have lower carbs, calories, and oils than fried foods. You will also be more energetic in the daytime if you eat baked foods daily.
Saute your vegetables in a small amount of water instead of artery blocking oil. You will find that steamed or boiled vegetables are just as good as friend vegetables. However, if you decide that a little oil must be used, then use a small amount of vegetable oil rather than butter or margarine.
Obviously, the foods we eat have a bearing on the quality of life we experience. After having read the suggestions given here, there are no excuses to have an unhealthy life due to poor nutrition or lack of nutritional knowledge. It is possible to eat well while still having control of the foods you eat.


Valves serve as the gatekeepers of airflow, ensuring that everything flows smoothly. Among the many types of valves, 2-way and 3-way valves are two common options and we'll explore the differences between these valves to help you decide which one suits your needs.
Understanding Pneumatic Valves
Choosing the right valve is essential for the smooth operation of your pneumatic system. Selecting the appropriate valve can make all the difference in terms of efficiency and functionality. The decision between a 2-way and a 3-way valve depends on the specific requirements of your system.
Before we delve into the comparison between 2-way and 3-way valves, let's take a moment to recognize that there are four primary types of pneumatic valves available, each serving a specific purpose.
- 2-Way Valves: These are the simplest and most common type. With two ports—one for inlet and one for outlet—they control the flow of air by either allowing it to pass or blocking it completely. 2-way valves are ideal for basic on/off control applications.
- 3-Way Valves: These valves have three ports: one inlet and two outlets. They are used when you need to divert airflow in different directions, making them suitable for applications where you must choose between two outlets or switch between two different processes.
- 4-Way Valves: Also known as directional control valves, 4-way valves feature four ports and are used in more complex pneumatic systems to control the airflow to and from two different actuators or devices.
- 5-Way Valves: These valves are an extension of 4-way valves and have five ports. They are employed in systems requiring even more advanced control, such as those controlling double-acting cylinders.
Now that you know about the most common 4 types of pneumatic valves, it’s time to compare the 2-way and 3-way valves.
Let's dive into the advantages of 2-way valves:
- Simplicity: One of the standout features of 2-way valves is their straightforward nature. These valves are incredibly easy to understand and operate. Their design, with just two ports, makes it clear how they function. You either have airflow or no airflow – it's as simple as that. This simplicity not only makes them user-friendly but also reduces the chances of operational errors, making them an excellent choice for those who value ease of use.
- On/Off Control: 2-way valves are primarily designed for basic on/off control applications. Think of them as the light switch for your pneumatic system. When you need to start or stop the flow of air, a 2-way valve is the perfect tool for the job. They excel in scenarios where you need a clear and precise control mechanism, such as turning a device or process on or off with minimal fuss.
- Cost-Effective: Budget considerations are often a significant factor when choosing components for your pneumatic system. Here's where 2-way valves have another advantage. They are generally more budget-friendly compared to their 3-way counterparts. So, if you're working with limited resources and your application aligns with the simple on/off control they offer, 2-way valves can be a cost-effective solution.
However, it's crucial to note that while 2-way valves have their merits, they may not be suitable for all situations. If your application demands the ability to divert or switch airflow in different directions, a 3-way valve might be the better fit. These valves provide more advanced control options and versatility, allowing you to channel air to different outlets or processes. So, the choice ultimately boils down to the specific needs and complexity of your pneumatic system.
Let's explore the advantages of 3-way valves:
- Versatility: One of the standout features of 3-way valves is their flexibility. These valves are designed to divert airflow between two outlets or processes, making them ideal for applications that require versatile control over the direction of airflow.
- Precise Control: 3-way valves excel in providing precise control over pneumatic systems. They allow you to choose which outlet or process to activate, adding an extra layer of control and adaptability to your system.
- Complex Systems: In scenarios where your pneumatic system is more intricate, 3-way valves are often the preferred choice. They provide the advanced control needed to manage multiple components and processes effectively.
In conclusion, the choice between 2-way and 3-way valves depends on the specific requirements of your pneumatic system. If you need simple on/off control, a 2-way valve is a cost-effective choice. However, if you require airflow diversion or more complex control, a 3-way valve offers the versatility you need.

After 10 years at sea, Old Navy is returning to Council Bluffs.
The popular clothing retailer will open at Metro Crossing in early 2020, according to the area’s developer, Pine Tree.
Three other new tenants are expected at the development, Pine Tree said, though they were unable to name them at this time.
Old Navy will located in the former Bed, Bath and Beyond building, according to Justine Jordan with Old Navy's public relations team.
"We’re thrilled to come back to Council Bluffs," Jordan said.
Old Navy closed its location at the Mall of the Bluffs in early 2010 after more than a decade in the mall. At the time, it was only the second location in the metropolitan area, with the first being at Westroads Mall in Omaha.
In the Omaha area, the Westroads mall location remains, along with a location at Village Pointe, an outlet location off L Street and a location at Shadow Lake Towne Center in Papillion, Nebraska.


Is RAS ready to shine?
A new report analysing the ever-increasing investment in recirculating aquaculture systems points to these technologies disrupting the salmon sector within the next decade, writes Jason Holland.
Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) have been a part of the seafood landscape for several years, with a relatively low success rate to date. But now the latest wave of land-based production innovations are being primed to change the face of fish farming – starting with the salmon sector, claims a new report from Dutch multinational finance group Rabobank.
Compiled by RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness analyst Beyhan de Jong, the Aquaculture 2.0: RAS Is Driving Change report finds that the number of proposed projects to farm seafood species using RAS is increasing on almost a daily basis, with the majority of enterprises focusing on salmon farming. This trend, it identifies, is being driven by the increasing global demand for salmon, the species’ high prices, and also the perception that there can be only limited growth in the conventional production of these fish in sea pens and cages due to licensing constraints and biological challenges.
More than 50 projects aiming to farm salmon in land-based systems have been recorded, with a total estimated production of 700,000 tonnes by 2030, or 25% of the current total salmon production. While Rabobank feels this volume is unlikely to be reached within the 10-year timescale for a variety of reasons, it does believe that RAS systems have the potential to produce 250,000 tonnes by this date.
Not surprisingly, due to its salmon farming know-how and existing cold chain and logistics infrastructure, Norway will be home to the majority of these planned land-based salmon farms. Yet this research finds that total proposed production volumes are highest in the United States, followed by China, and this is attributed to the high demand growth rates in these major seafood markets.
One-third of the proposed RAS projects mapped by Rabobank target a production volume up to 5,000 tonnes by 2026 or later, while the majority of the projects aim for a production volume between 5,000 to 35,000 tonnes.
So far, the largest harvest volume targeted by a single RAS facility is by the Miami-based aquaculture producer Atlantic Sapphire, which wants the facility it’s currently building to harvest 220,000 tonnes. At the same time, the Singapore-based firm Pure Salmon is aiming for a global salmon volume of 260,000 tonnes, of which 100,000 tonnes will be produced China.
Only a few projects are actually harvesting salmon today. Others are at the financing stage, or getting permits, and some are constructing their facilities. Indeed, the report states that despite the large planned production, the current salmon volumes coming from RAS are only around 3,000 tonnes, with no company currently producing more than 1,000 tonnes. Nevertheless, with the number of announced projects increasing from 30 to over 50 from 2018 to 2019, more than doubling the planned production volumes, the report reckons this pace of growth means it’s reasonable to expect more proposals to be added to the pipeline, and this might increase planned volumes up to 1 million tonnes next year.
It also offers that RAS could be a disruptive aquaculture technology in the next 10 years – not only in terms of adding volumes to salmon production, but also by potentially disrupting trade flows, supply chains, and the marketing of salmon. There’s also the further assertion that land-based salmon could almost be a mainstream product in the next decade if the proposed RAS salmon projects can more or less achieve their harvest levels and successfully deliver a volume of around 500,000 tonnes.
Obstacles to success
While RAS can bring sustainability and biosecurity benefits due to the technology being based on closed farming, Rabobank’s analysis suggests four sets of risks that such operations need to manage effectively.
First, on the financial side, RAS is more capital-intensive than other, more conventional aquaculture systems, and one of the biggest challenges is the upfront capital expenditure (capex) required. Also, there are still many unknowns in RAS farming, including the future cost of production and, therefore, the profitability of such projects. Furthermore, the period between the investment in and the revenue generated from the RAS farm is relatively long, necessitating financial flexibility to deal with unexpected production and technological challenges. Extra financing could also be needed while ramping up the production volumes.
Secondly, from an operational perspective, while there have been a lot of developments that have lowered the cost and enhanced the efficiency of RAS, there’s still the possibility of production setbacks. Indeed, the report declares the RAS history has seen more failures than successes due to technological failures, biological challenges such as diseases and mortalities, and product quality risks from the taste, texture and colour of the fish.
Next, permits are necessary to set up land-based fish and shellfish farms, and licenses are required for the intake and discharge of water. Rabobank advises that in some cases, getting the support of the local community where the RAS facility is planned might not be straightforward, and that in such cases, open and transparent communication between industry and local authorities and communities is necessary.
Last but not least, when it comes to marketing risks, because salmon production with RAS is not yet available on a commercial scale, Rabobank insists that it’s difficult to anticipate the consumer acceptance of land-farmed fish. “While RAS farmers argue their products would be local, more sustainable and environmentally friendly, sea-based salmon farmers could argue that their fish come from pristine, open waters – the natural habitat of salmon.”
Additionally, it offers that RAS stocking densities and intensification of systems could also raise questions of fish welfare.
“In the end, consumer acceptance will determine who will win this marketing game and get the price premium,” suggests the report.
Rabobank points to species and location as key factors that can mitigate the four risk areas. While in theory it’s possible to farm any aquatic species in any part of the world using RAS, by raising fish with greater growth rates and higher economic values, it maintains that it’s possible to overcome the production costs. This is why RAS is presently focused on high-value, premium and niche products, such as salmon and, to a limited extent, kingfish, sole, sturgeon, turbot, barramundi and steelhead.
At the same time, one of the main advantages of RAS is the ability to establish farms in end markets – essentially where there’s demand but no local production. According to the analysis, if all of the projects to farm salmon on land in the United States that have been publicly announced actually come to fruition, this would equate to a production volume of 300,000 tonnes within the next 10 years – equal to the current imports from Norway and Chile into the US market.
Similarly, the four large salmon projects currently planned in China could potentially result in land-based production of 140,000 tonnes, which is more than the country’s imports in 2018.
Rabobank’s report concludes that there is a high chance that some RAS projects will succeed if they fulfil at least half of the key success factors regarding the species and location selection. It states, “The companies who achieve this will be the frontrunners in land-based aquaculture. RAS technology is here. The big questions are where and when mainstream land-based salmon production [will] start – and who will start it.”

Healthy boundaries are an essential part of any relationship. They provide a framework for how we interact with others and allow us to maintain our individuality while also connecting with them. But what exactly are healthy boundaries in a relationship?
Healthy boundaries are the limits and rules that we set for ourselves to protect our emotional, physical, and mental well-being. When both parties in a relationship understand each other’s boundaries, it can help create healthier dynamics and foster mutual respect.
There are several types of boundaries that can be set in relationships, such as physical (respecting personal space), emotional (setting limits on how much time is spent talking about certain topics), mental (not allowing yourself to be manipulated or taken advantage of) and sexual (setting guidelines around sexual intimacy). Examples of healthy boundary setting include asking for what you need from your partner, expressing your feelings openly and honestly, saying no when something doesn’t feel right, making sure that both parties are comfortable with decisions made, taking responsibility for your own actions, respecting each other’s opinions even if they differ from yours, speaking up when something is not okay, and listening without judgment.
Establishing healthy boundaries in relationships has many benefits including being clear about our needs and expectations, communicating more effectively, managing conflict better, building trust and respect, creating healthier dynamics in the relationship, and gaining a greater sense of self-awareness.
It can be difficult to set healthy boundaries at first because it requires vulnerability on both sides. But once you start doing it regularly it becomes easier and more natural over time. It’s important to remember that setting healthy boundaries is not about controlling or manipulating the other person – it’s about taking care of yourself.
What Are the Benefits of Setting Personal Boundaries?
When it comes to relationships, healthy boundaries are essential. They help us communicate more effectively, manage conflict better, and build trust and respect. But what exactly are healthy boundaries in a relationship?
Healthy boundaries are the limits and rules that we set for ourselves to protect our emotional, physical, and mental wellbeing. Here’s what you need to know about the benefits of setting personal boundaries:
• Respect Yourself: Setting personal boundaries allows individuals to create healthy relationships and maintain a sense of self-respect.
• Protect Your Wellbeing: Boundaries can help protect your physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. Establishing boundaries can also reduce stress and anxiety by providing a sense of safety and control in situations.
• Communicate Expectations: Setting boundaries can provide clarity on expectations between people, allowing for better communication. It can also define the roles that each person plays in a relationship or situation.
• Foster Respect & Understanding: Having clear boundaries can lead to increased feelings of respect and understanding between people as they are aware of what is expected from each other.
• Boost Self-Confidence: Personal boundaries can help foster self-confidence as individuals take ownership of their decisions and actions.
Knowing how to set healthy boundaries is an important part of any relationship – whether it’s with friends, family members or romantic partners – so it’s worth taking the time to understand what they mean for you!
Strategies for Establishing and Maintaining Healthy Boundaries
Establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries in any relationship is essential for both parties to feel safe and respected. Here are some strategies for doing so:
-Communicate Clearly: It’s important to communicate your needs and expectations clearly and respectfully. This will help ensure that both parties understand each other’s limits and can work together to create a safe environment.
-Set Limits: Recognize your own limits and respect those of others. This means understanding when you need to take a break or set limits on certain behaviors.
-Practice Self-Care: Self-care is an important part of maintaining healthy boundaries, so make sure you get enough rest, eat well, engage in activities that bring joy, and take time for yourself.
-Be Aware of Triggers: Knowing what sets off difficult emotions or reactions can help you manage them more effectively, so be aware of your triggers and how they may affect your ability to maintain healthy boundaries.
Exploring the 5 Types of Relationship Boundaries
Healthy boundaries are essential for any relationship to thrive. They create a sense of safety and respect, allowing both parties to express themselves without fear of judgement or criticism. Establishing and maintaining these boundaries can be done by communicating needs and expectations clearly, setting limits, practicing self-care, and being aware of triggers.
When it comes to exploring the five types of relationship boundaries, there’s a lot to consider. Here’s a breakdown:
• Physical Boundaries: These involve physical contact, distance, and privacy. Examples include not engaging in physical contact without consent, respecting each other’s personal space, and keeping conversations private.
• Emotional Boundaries: These are mental or emotional limits between two people in a relationship. Examples include setting healthy expectations for communication, understanding when someone needs space to process their emotions, and feeling comfortable expressing oneself without fear of judgement or criticism.
• Intellectual Boundaries: This type of boundary relates to the exchange of ideas between two people in a relationship. Examples include respecting each other’s opinions even when they differ from your own, being open to learning new things from one another, and having meaningful conversations about topics that interest both parties.
• Spiritual Boundaries: Spiritual boundaries refer to the spiritual beliefs held by each person in a relationship and how they interact with one another. Examples include respecting each other’s religious views, allowing space for individual spiritual exploration without judgement or criticism, and honoring any spiritual traditions that are important to either partner.
• Financial Boundaries: Financial boundaries refer to the financial limits set within a relationship regarding money management and spending. Examples include creating a budget together that works for both partners, discussing financial goals as a couple (e.g, saving for retirement), and setting ground rules around how money is spent (e.g, no impulse purchases).
By understanding these different types of boundaries in relationships – physical, emotional intellectual, spiritual & financial – we can create an environment that allows us to feel safe enough to express ourselves authentically while also respecting our partner’s needs & feelings too!
The Importance of Setting Healthy Boundaries in Relationships
• Communicate your needs and expectations clearly – Communication is essential for setting healthy boundaries. Make sure you discuss your needs and expectations with your partner so that everyone involved knows what’s expected.
• Set limits – Setting limits helps to ensure that everyone involved in the relationship respects each other’s wishes and feelings. This can be done by setting physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual boundaries.
• Practice self-care – Self-care is important for setting healthy boundaries as it helps you to be aware of your own triggers and needs. This will help you to communicate better with your partner as well as understand their needs too.
• Be aware of triggers – Being aware of what triggers certain emotions or behaviours can help you set better boundaries in the relationship. Understanding what sets off certain reactions can help you avoid them in the future.
By following these tips, you can create a safe and respectful environment where both parties feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear or judgement.
Examples of Healthy Boundaries in Relationships
• Respect each other’s privacy and space: It’s important to have a private life outside of your relationship, so it’s important to respect each other’s need for privacy.
• Communicate honestly and openly: Open communication is the foundation of any strong relationship, so it’s important to be honest with each other about your feelings, thoughts, and needs.
• Respect each other’s opinions and decisions: It’s important to be able to express your opinion without fear of judgement or criticism from your partner.
• Set clear expectations for behavior: Establishing clear expectations for how you want to be treated in the relationship can help prevent misunderstandings or hurt feelings.
• Have a mutual understanding of the relationship: Both partners should have an understanding of what the relationship means to them, as well as what they expect from one another.
• Give each other space to express emotions without fear of judgement or criticism: Everyone expresses emotions differently, so it’s important to give each other space when needed without judgement or criticism.
• Establish trust and respect for one another: Trust is essential in any healthy relationship, so it’s important to build trust by being honest with one another and respecting each other’s decisions.
• Respect each other’s time and commitments: Respecting each others’ time is an important part of having a successful relationship, so it’s important that both partners make an effort to honor their commitments.
Conclusions: How to Build Stronger Connections with Healthy Boundaries
Healthy boundaries are essential for any successful and meaningful relationship. They provide structure and clarity, allowing both parties to understand what is acceptable and what is not. But how can we build stronger connections with healthy boundaries? Here are some tips to help you create and maintain strong relationships:
Trust and respect are the foundation of any successful relationship. Respect each other’s privacy, space, time, commitments, and feelings. Communicate openly and honestly about your needs and expectations so that you both can work together towards mutual understanding. Be willing to compromise when necessary while also respecting each other’s boundaries.
Take time for yourself when needed in order to maintain balance in the relationship. This will give you the opportunity to reflect on your own needs as well as those of your partner. Be mindful of how your words and actions affect the other person, striving for honesty, kindness, compassion, and understanding at all times.
Creating healthy boundaries in a relationship takes effort from both sides but it is worth it in the end. When done right, these boundaries will help foster strong connections between two people who care deeply about each other. So why not take the time today to start building stronger connections with healthy boundaries?
Healthy boundaries are essential for any successful and meaningful relationship. They provide structure and clarity, allowing both parties to understand what is acceptable and what is not. Having healthy boundaries in place can help build trust, respect, and communication within the relationship.
Establishing healthy boundaries involves setting limits, communicating needs and expectations clearly, practicing self-care, and being aware of triggers. Respecting each other’s privacy and space, communicating openly and honestly, and respecting each other’s time and commitments are all important aspects of having healthy boundaries in a relationship.
Healthy boundaries can help create healthier dynamics in the relationship by allowing both parties to express themselves without fear of judgement or criticism. They also allow us to communicate more effectively, manage conflict better, build trust and respect, create healthier dynamics in the relationship, and gain a greater sense of self-awareness.
By understanding how to set healthy boundaries in relationships we can ensure that our relationships are successful and fulfilling. Healthy boundaries provide us with the security we need to feel safe while still allowing us to be ourselves. The key is to recognize when it’s time to set limits or take a step back from certain situations that may cause distress or harm our emotional wellbeing.

History of the Teche Theatre
The Teche Theatre was always meant to be a source of pride for Franklin. The utmost care and planning went into the vision of what it would be and what it would mean to the community from the very beginning. Fred Nehrbass of Favrot & Reed was the architect who planned it all, and it's he that we have to thank for the design of the theater. His plans were carried out by W. J. Quick & Hudson East, contractors from Lake Charles, Louisiana. Their execution of Nehrbass' vision produced a beautiful theater that, as you know, still stands today. The Teche was built, quite literally, with a little bit of Franklin, as the steel used was sourced from the St. Mary Iron Works of Franklin. When all was said and done, the Teche was not only a place for the arts, but also a showcase of modern design at the time. The front of the theater features glass blocks in black, tan, and red to match the dazzling marquee outside. The floor was done in stylish terrazzo. Walking into the theater just after completion would have been a stunning sight to see! At the time, the Teche, with a seating capacity of 800, was very spacious.
Construction began in 1939, and was finished shortly after, in the spring of 1940. The owner at the time, the Lauve-Bodin Amusement Company, made sure that the furnishings placed inside the theater were of the same quality as the building itself. The air conditioning system was state of the art at the time, running on gas. The equipment was top-of-the-line as well; the well-known R.C.A. High Fidelity sound system and Simplex (a trusted name in motion picture equipment) film projectors. No expense was spared. At its opening, the Teche was the most luxurious theater in South Louisiana.
The theater was opened on Easter Weekend, March 29th, 1940. The first show, "Charlie Chan in Panama" debuted on the next day, Easter Sunday. Times were good, and the theater prospered.
However, the success of the Teche came and went. With the invention of the television, attendance rates plummeted as patrons now could stay in their own homes for entertainment. As the years wore on, the theater grew in need of repair. The Lauve-Bodin company decided to lease out the theater to someone who would give it the updates that it desperately needed. In 1968, Mr. Aubrey Lasseigne accepted the challenge. He signed a 20-year lease and overhauled the Teche. Updates included soundproofing, replacing the seating with more comfortable rocking chairs, a new sound system, and automating the projection room. The Teche gained new life and prospered once more. Sadly, this resurgence of interest was not to last either. Neighboring towns started to build multiplex cinemas, drawing movie-goers elsewhere. Attendance dropped until the mid-1980s, when the doors of the Teche Theater were finally drawn closed.
The closure was short lived, luckily, and in the mid-1990s, the theater was purchased from Lauve-Bodin by the city of Franklin for $40,000. The building was immediately leased to the "Teche Theatre for the Performing Arts", an organization devoted to restoring the Teche to its former glory. The doors of the theater were reopened on Friday, August 2nd, 2002. A special black tie Gala dinner theater event was held. It was a huge success. The next day, August 3rd, was the day of the Grand Opening event. Both nights sold out. The first touring company to perform at the revitalized Teche was John McConnell. His one man show, "Earl Long in Purgatory", was a hit and all three performances sold out.
One more obstacle arose in the story of the Teche. In October of 2002, Hurricane Lily hit St. Mary Parish and Franklin directly. The theater was not spared from the storm, and it received major damage to the roof as well as the interior. Once again, the doors had to be closed for major repairs. After a very diligent effort for many months, the theater was eventually reopened. On the weekend of August 8th, 2003, the Teche celebrated the reopening with another Gala. Performances were held over that entire weekend, with the Teche debuting its first "Dessert Matinee".
In September of 2003, the theater began its series "Classics of the Silver Screen". One weekend a month, an important movie to the history of Hollywood was shown on the large screen at the Teche. Some of the films shown were "The Philadelphia Story", "To Kill a Mockingbird", and "Fancy Pants". The series was finished that year with Irving Berlin's "White Christmas". September was also when rehearsals for the first in house production, Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", began. The show was performed on December 5th, 6th, and 7th, starring John Braud, Edward Verdin, and Diane Wiltz. Two nights of dinner theater, one dessert matinee, and one night of general seating all sold out.
Since then, the Teche has enjoyed success without any major setbacks. All of the hard work of everyone who made the theater such a hit was recognized in 2004 when Mr. Jeff Minor (president), and Mr. John Braud (vice-president) of the Teche Theatre Board of Directors, both received the "Virginia Tyler Guillotte Award," presented by the St. Mary Parish Chamber of Commerce, for their outstanding achievement in restoring the Teche Theatre to its former glory. At the beginning, the Teche Board had envisioned a two-year renovation plan that eventually turned into a decade long project. The Teche Theatre that you see today has been a long time coming, but we at the Teche Theatre for the Performing Arts feel that it was most definitely worth the wait.


Pep Guardiola won't take penalty duties from Sergio Aguero despite striker missing twice in Champions League
- Sergio Aguero missed two penalties vs Steaua Bucharest on Tuesday
- Striker has failed with four of his last five efforts from spot in Europe
- But manager Pep Guardiola is happy for Aguero to retain responsibility
- Guardiola will let his players decide but has confidence in Argentine
Sergio Aguero will be allowed to remain on Manchester City's penalties despite failing from the spot twice in Tuesday's emphatic Champions League win over Steaua Bucharest.
Aguero saw one effort saved and fired another over the bar, but recovered to score a hat-trick as City recorded their biggest Champions League win.
Afterwards, Pep Guardiola stood by the Argentina striker and insisted that he will be allowed to keep the penalty duties.
Sergio Aguero sends his second penalty in Bucharest against goalkeeper Florin Nita's bar
Pep Guardiola is confident in Aguero's ability from the spot despite twice watching him miss
The Argentine striker released his frustrations by hitting a treble against the Romanians
'I am confident if Aguero is confident and as far as I am concerned he is still taking the penalties,' said Guardiola.
'Yes, he missed two penalties but after the first he wanted to take the second and I like a player who stands up to that responsibility.
'I like that he believes he has that power.
'I will leave it up to the players but I am happy to let him carry on.
Aguero and his team-mates will be allowed by their manager to decide who's on penalties
'The fact he missed the penalties is part of the game, but it was important that Sergio stayed focused and didn't get down.
'He focused on his game and after he scored three goals.
'A penalty is a penalty. He has the personality to hit it but he was not a let-down and he scored three goals.'
City's new manager was pleased with his side' s display but sees scope for improvement
Guardiola was delighted with City's performance but less happy with defender Nicolas Otamendi for lunging into a tackle in City's penalty box before half-time. He even gave the Argentine a dig in the ribs to reinforce his point.
'I don't like it when central defenders go down on the pitch,' said Guardiola. 'But we are here to get him better.
'After the two penalties for us, a little situation is going to give away a penalty against us and we have to avoid that. It's a normal situation, it's no problem.
Nicolas Otamendi gave his manager cause for concern by lunging into a penalty box tackle
'Players make mistakes when they play. When this happens we are there to tell them in a good way.
'They are intelligent, they are professionals. They know everything we say is for the best for the team.
'We are very pleased about the way we played. Of course, the result we are almost in the Champions League.
The benched Joe Hart is linked with Everton but Guardiola wouldn't comment on the keeper
'The result is a consequence of our performance. When you win 0-5 in the Champions League against the best team in Romania, it's because you do very good things.'
Joe Hart was once again left on the bench amid speculation the England goalkeeper will leave City before the end of the transfer window.
Everton and Sevilla have been strongly linked with Hart, but Guardiola said; 'It's the same situation. I decide today the best players for the game today.'

One of our guides on our recent trip to Yellowstone National Park told us that the geothermal features can shift and move over time. She said that when they became problematic to a road, the original response was to pave over them. Eventually, they began to re-route the road or change planned construction, instead of attempting to “tame” the hot spring or geyser. As she put it, “Geology is boss.”
I wonder how long it took them to come to that conclusion. How often do we attempt to “solve” problems by administering the same “solutions” without the desired outcome? As Albert Schweitzer is often quoted as saying, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”
Mindless repetition whether paving over Mother Nature’s marvelous works to “maintain” the road or repeating the same behavior in our own lives that has proven itself unworkable, is like the hamster running on a wheel, expending lots of energy but getting nowhere.
This topic is especially relevant to me and to all those in churches and other organizations that thrived in the 50s and 60s. One problem lies in that these attempted solutions were formerly standard operating procedure which worked well in previous years. So we turn to what we know, what has felt comfortable and are puzzled when it doesn’t work.
How does one stay vital in a culture that over time has shifted so dramatically? “Work smarter, not harder” comes to mind. Pay attention to what excites you, gets your blood pumping, a vision of your desired goal. Then figure out the steps to reach it and evaluate as you go.
I was once part of a visioning process in a church that was seeking to revitalize itself, to develop new ways to relate in a meaningful way to the community. We did a visualization exercise with the goal to imagine our church in the future. One person said he saw the church dark and shuttered. I was aghast. I had seen in my image a group of children playing in the yard adjacent to fellowship hall being called in to supper where they joined their families, which seemed a bit farfetched in a church with no children. Six or eight months later, however, we began to work with what was then called Interfaith Hospitality Network, where churches rotate opening their spaces to homeless families a week at a time. The first night we served the network I was awestruck as I watched the children come in from playing outside to join their parents for the evening meal, just as I had envisioned it.
There may always be naysayers to a vision and perhaps they have valid points to consider. But it serves any organization to have enthusiastic people and leaders who can help focus that energy to pursue and carry out a vision.
May we be bearers of hope, the “wait staff” of Hope’s Café for each other and all those we encounter. Shalom, Kate
Hope’s Café Bonus: Do One Thing Different by Bill O’Hanlon, describes a process of change making one small alteration at a time, another suggestion. One change builds on another.

I recently reached out to a cousin for some advice about the guest list. She said, “I feel your angst. Wedding etiquette has changed.” So I’m trying to appease the bride but I feel so uncomfortable doing it. Change is sometimes not my friend.

Change is tough for most. But I got a big surprise when I had a visioning meeting with church council. They are largely in their 80s and are very active. They wanted to see change in worship and were open to other changes as well. Hope to see this play out in a constructive way! (Curious what you are encountering with guest list)
