On the recommendation of a friend the book Legacy by James Kerr was among the books I bought myself for Christmas. I finally got around to reading it and discovered it was as "unputdownable" as Bloomberg reviewed it to be. I think one reason I put off reading it was because I am a soccer coach and this is a book about the All Blacks rugby team. Only, it's not about rugby at all. It's about culture and leadership. It's about life.
A personal strength of mine lies in building soccer programs. Not just a team, but the program. And not a rebuild either. I truly enjoy taking a program that maybe has not had on-the-field success and helping them find that elusive success. Another way to frame this is to say I have a knack for taking a program and team to the next level. This invariably entails improving the programs / teams culture by infusing it with positivity and giving it my confidence. THIS is what Legacy is all about.
The book is not in a bullet pointed step by step format on how to do things the right way, but it is in a coherent format that touches on the basics, or the core, concepts, ideas and philosophies that lead to success. The All Blacks are the vehicle used to relate the values that drive success. And, along this journey I discovered I've been doing a lot of things right in accordance with the book. There are also things, many things, I have learned through reading this book. These I will be sharing with the programs and teams I work with going forward. Thank you Mr. James Kerr. Much appreciated.
Combining the Keys to Pace of Play, Sequence of Touches and the Four Elements of the Game of Soccer are essential to playing fast soccer. This is a THINKING man's game.
Keep your hips open to as much of the field as possible.
There's more, of course. We build activities around these ideas.
you never advance and improve.
The culture precedes positive results.
Would your team be better or worse?
1) Teams rise and fall on culture, leadership, relationships, attitude and effort.
Great teams have a culture driven by great leadership. Relationships are meaningful and teammates are connected. The collective attitude is very positive and everyone on the team works hard to accomplish their mission.
2) It's all about teamwork.
Sometimes you are the star. Sometimes a teammate is the star. Share the spotlight.
3) If you want to be truly great, you must work as hard at being a great teammate as you do at being a great player.
When you work hard at being a great teammate, you make everyone around you better.
4) Your teammates do not care if you are a superstar.
They care if you are a super teammate.
5) You control your ATTITUDE, your EFFORTS and your ACTIONS toward being a great teammate.
Regardless of what is happening around you, everyday you can focus on being positive, working hard and making others around you better. If you do this, great things will happen.
6) One person cannot make a team, but one person can break a team.
Stay positive, always. Do not allow Energy Vampires to sabotage YOUR teams efforts.
7) Great teammates hold one another accountable to the highest standards of excellence their culture demands and expects.
Without enforcement of standards all talk about culture is just that ... Talk.
8) Team beats talent when talent isn't a team.
Culture can win you or lose you games AND it's YOUR CHOICE which it will do.
9) Great teams care more.
Great teams care about each other, their appearance, the quality of their work, their efforts ... everything positive.
10) Firm Belief and Understanding that WE > me.
What is best for the team supersedes what is best for the individual. A willingness to sacrifice for a common goal and the greater good.
11) Quality TEAM Decision Making.
Each and every day your team faces a decision.
Take the road less traveled and chase GREATNESS.
I spend several hours of every week involved in soccer at various ability and age levels - club soccer, high school soccer, youth soccer, camps and clinics, As would be expected, even amongst players of similar ages, the technical level of individual players varies quite a bit. I had long been of the opinion that individuals and teams with very good technical ability play attractive soccer. Over time I came to reconsider my thoughts on this.
There can be no doubt individual technical ability is an important prerequisite to playing attractive soccer. However, it became apparent to me many individuals and teams with good technical foundations tend to play at the game of soccer instead of actually playing soccer.
Playing soccer occurs when technical ability is used in the context of helping make sense of the game.There are conscious decisions made by individuals and coordinated with teammates concerning where and how the ball is to be played and also about how players are to move and where players are to move on the pitch.
Players consciously think about what to do with the ball and make plans to execute their ideas about this. Passes are played with some degree of thought, with intent and not just aimlessly struck forward. The ball is played backwards, diagonally or square with a fair degree of frequency as players and teams seek the path of least resistance to goal. Possession is maintained through a combination of technical abilities - receiving the ball, dribbling, running with the ball, passing. Movement of players on the pitch is done with forethought and done with purpose. Although many times these skills are not executed perfectly by young players the important thing is players demonstrating they possess ideas about how to intentionally influence the game through their own decision making.
Playing at soccer occurs when individuals play the ball mainly with the intention of gaining better field positions. The game is often marked by great hustle and energy, but rarely are these executed in a well coordinated manner. The flow of the game is random and rarely influenced by intentional positive actions. Possessions are truncated and what rhythm there is to the game more closely resembles that of a ping pong match than a proper soccer match.
Possession soccer is not defined by any specific number of successful passes having been completed. A team might successfully maintain possession for 20 passes while never advancing the ball into scoring position. Similarly, a forward might win possession in his attacking third and immediately score the ball without ever attempting a pass. Which of these was a successful possession?
Possession with a Purpose does not even adequately grasp the concept. For example, a player races to a 50 / 50 ball and upon arriving first to the ball whacks it mightily up the pitch towards the opponents goal. This player had a purpose behind his play. In fact, he might have had multiple purposes behind his play: Win the ball, Gain field position, "Passing" to a teammate. This, in a snapshot, is how much of the United States views "direct" soccer.
Intelligent Play is combining technical ability with tactical forethought in teamwork to possess and advance the ball at pace into scoring position resulting in an increase in the likelihood of a successful strike on goal. This seeks to eliminate or at least minimize the randomness that permeates the basic concept of direct soccer.
Many years ago while taking the National High School Diploma Course through the NSCAA now known as United Soccer Coaches I had the good fortune of learning from a gentleman by the name of Jeff Vennell who had penned a wonderful document titled The Cues for Combination Passing and shared with us various exercises to introduce these to players. When introducing the concept of Intelligent Attacking Play his thoughts on combination passing remain high on the priority list of topics to teach. The Cues for Combination Passing are but one example of a collective philosophy I loosely refer to as Intentionally Manipulating the Opponent and the Game itself through Intelligent Possession. Playing with a well defined and intelligent Purpose.
or inattention to the basics.
Who was the worst player you have ever coached?
I was recently asked to describe the worst player I have ever coached.
Context told me this had absolutely nothing to do with skill set or ability to play the game, per se. The questioner did not wish for me to divulge a name. This was more a quest for anecdotal identification of what makes a poor teammate. Two players immediately came to mind. One of each gender. I will be using initials to describe these individuals in this writing. They are not the individuals true initials and were indeed selected totally at random. In fact, I might even obfuscate gender or mix and max a bit to protect identies.
GM was an average talent on the pitch who had an alpha personality. Not being"the" star was a problem resolved by attaching himself to the star player. The star player was not a leader, but as is often the case with a star player was looked upon as a leader. So GM led through the star player. It was a selfish, self-promoting style of leadership that ultimately cost the team a chance to play for a championship. GM didn't care about that or much of anything else that did not benefit or promote himself directly. Not only was GM selfish, he was also a bully and capable of being quite mean to any who dared challenge his self-perceived authority or place on the team.
GD was the most narcissistic person, let alone player, I have ever encountered. No sense of team except in the sense of what the team could provide him. Did not care about winning as long as she got her stats. GD's damage was not limited to a season or even seasons. No, GD almost completely destroyed an entire program. There was real question as to whether the program would survive to field future teams. Her selfishness rose to a level of running off potential players who could have served the team well, but conflicted with her personnel mission. I've never had a player more disliked by he own teammates than GD was. And GD was completely and totally oblivious to this ... or just didn't care.
I tried to cut both GM and GD from their respect teams and programs, but was not allowed to do so for different reasons. One cost their team a chance to compete for a championship and the other almost destroyed a program. Both of these individuals were leaders on their teams. NEGATIVE leaders who proved destructive to their teams missions and goals.
That's part of the reason I am sharing his with you. Rarely does a team rise above the level of its leaders. If, on a scale of 1 to 10, ten being the best leader possible and one being the worst leader imaginable, your leader is a 6, then your team will never be anything more than slightly above average. If your leader is below average, say, a four, then that is also the ceiling, the cap, the lid for your team.
Another reason I am sharing this with you is my observations regarding GM and GD's teammates. Most curiously from my perspective is how so many good players and potentially solid leaders on both teams allowed GM and GD to assume control of their teams culture and programs destiny. Good, truly good, people allowed something really awful to happen to themselves without putting up a strong enough fight to win the day. I shouldn't be surprised since history is littered with examples of good people led astray by dubious leadership. I suppose I am more disappointed than surprised.
Both teams underachieved for the simple reason their culture was dominated by negative leadership.
them from the team and program. I have also learned to be far more aware and selective of the environment I coach in: if I cannot rid a team and or program of poor leaders and poor teammates, then I now fully realize the limits this places on the team being competitive to the full measure of potential ... and the frustration that will inevitably be present in such an environment.
but to make better people.
This is one of the quotes I keep close to heart at all times. As coaches of youth teams we are entrusted with young men and women in their formative years. We are part of the community it takes to raise a child. In nearly 40 years of coaching I believe the majority of time spent with young people has been spent reinforcing solid values set in place in their homes. I've been blessed in that regard.
There have been times when I have taken a more active role in the development of a young person. This usually, but not always, occurs in cooperation with the young person's parent(s). Sometimes a child lacks a good home situation. Sometimes they have not even had a home situation. Thankfully those scenarios have been rare, but alas have been occurring with greater frequency in recent years. But for the most part I work as an enforcer for parents seeking help in teaching life lessons to their children. Sometimes That parent has even been myself.
For example, the most common thing I have done is have a player report to the game in uniform and then inform him or her they will be watching that days match from the sidelines. The reason? Either poor grades or discipline issues. It's an attention getter. I did this with my own child when he began to think video games and soccer were more important than school and homework. I believe he was a 5th grader at the time. In that instance I did not tell his teammates why he wasn't playing that day. His teammates kept asking him why he wasn't playing. He eventually had to tell them himself. Not only did this correct his behavior but it sent a powerful message to his teammates about the prioritizing.
I share that brief story to help illustrate my decision-making philosophy. I prioritize PROGRAM first followed by TEAM second and the INDIVIDUAL third. I have had a parent or two question me about this when I have forced a player to miss games for grade issues. This has usually occurred in the case of a club player and has often not been the parent of the player himself, but a teammates parent. The conversation goes something like this, "How can sitting 'Jonathon' be the best thing for the team? We need Jonathon if we are going to win the game." My response is invariably that we need Jonathon to win life before we can worry about Jonathon helping us to win a game. We do not want to be a program known for "winning at all costs" especially if that cost is sacrificing what is good for an individual to promote the program.
"But what about the team? It's not fair to the other players!"
EXACTLY! Why should Jonathon be granted special privileges? Just because he is a good soccer or basketball player? Does athletic talent earn him a free pass in other areas of life?
We know in some cultures athletic talent will gain you a free pass in many areas of life. It's not right, but it happens. All glory is found in the win ... until that player can no longer contribute to winning. Attrition of one kind or another takes place. What then? That player is discarded in favor of a newer version. IF that former player is lucky and was a truly exceptional athlete (s)he might be remembered 20 years later for accomplishments on the court or field,. But for most, in less than a generations time they are all but forgotten. They become real life Al Bundy's spending their adult life reliving their past glory as a youth athlete.
When a player I work with is being recruited the single most important piece of advice I provide is for them to make a 40-year decision. As a coach, I do my best to do the same. It's easy to choose a school based on what you get from the recruiting process and promises of wins. That is also fools gold. Short term gain. Live in this moment decision making. I counsel to select a school based on what an education from that school can do for you 40 years into the future.
Deciding to not play a young person in a club or high school game is much the same thing. In the grand scheme of things that game sat out will soon be forgotten by almost everyone involved. With the exception of the individual who had to sit out, hopefully. When I take this approach I literally pray that sitting out an in-the-moment significant but in the long-term inconsequential youth sporting contest will be a positive life altering event for that individual with a lasting impact of 40+ years.
My goal as a coach is to help the young people entrusted to me in developing life skills and character that will serve then well for a lifetime. The techniques, tactics, physical condition of the sport ... all that is a means to an end and that end is not necessarily winning games. In fact, if truth be known, wins are a by-product of life skills, character and the type of decision making that when present bring out he best in individuals, teams and life.
A different take on warm ups.
This fall finds me once again coaching high school soccer. The team I am working with is young, inexperienced and coed playing against boys teams. The odds are definitely stacked against us. I m having a blast!
I have pretty much a blank canvas to work with.
If focused on results, this could definitely be considered a negative. If we take an approach of this being an opportunity, then the challenges we face are a blessing. I choose to see this season as a blessing of amazing proportions.
My assistant and I have no choice but to teach. What we teach is every single aspect of game and team. Why we teach it is not solely based in pursuit of better on-the-field results. No, both what we teach and why we teach are grounded in helping the young men and women we work with to learn the value of confronting adversity, learning from mistakes and working cooperatively together to solve problems encountered in the process of becoming a better team and through the experience, better people.
A favorite saying of mine is "Failing to prepare properly is preparing to fail." This quote is often attributed to Benjamin Franklin who was by all accounts a pretty accomplished man. When applying this quote to soccer most will think of practicing well and warming up properly in front of playing a game. This, especially the warming up part, is usually equated to physical preparation. In practice players perform repetitions of technique and tactics to develop muscle memory that allows them to play instinctively. Warm ups are often about perfection or striving to be as perfect as possible in preparing for the game. This is where I find fault with standard warm ups that involve stretching followed by performing well rehearsed routines. It reduces warming up to finding a rhythm and getting comfortable before playing the game. The problem here is not in what you do, but is found in what you do not do.
A soccer match is a exercise in problem solving ability - that of individual players and the collective team. If we accept this to be true, then should we not include adversity and problem solving in our preparation to play the game?
A wise old coach once told me he could spot an American soccer player in the first few seconds of watching them step on the field. American players step on the field and immediately begin whacking the ball at the goal. Players from other countries step on the pitch and immediately have a ball at their feet working on individual ball handling skills.
I love watching professional athletes warm up, especially the stars. Invariably they begin small and work their way up to the act required to put points on the scoreboard. Watch Tom Brady warm up. He gets his body warmed up and then begins with simple ball handling tasks like taking snaps from his center. He progresses to handing the ball off to running backs and moves on to throwing the football to receivers. Kyrie Irving comes out early and does ball handling exercises. These include the now famous two ball drill, dribbling and passing with either hand. The last thing he does is practice his shooting. He takes care of all the things that will get him to taking a shot before actually working on taking the shot.
I firmly believe failing to warm up properly is one reason the United States has yet to produce a world class striker. We warm up to get comfortable instead of warming up to problem solve in the game. We need to address our problem solving skills as much or more than establishing our comfort. Game environments are rarely comfortable so I'm a bit mystified by the emphasis on establishing comfort in our warm ups. We need challenges in warm ups to prepare our problem solving skills.
Light intensity and conserving energy for the actual game is another aspect of traditional warm ups that leave me scratching my head. When one is about to play a contest should one not prepare for the intensity of the contest? Rest and restoring energy can take place in the moments before kickoff - during the captains meeting, last minute instructions, playing of the national anthem and player introductions. Pre-creating game-like intensity cannot. This must be done as a gradual build up from the first step onto the pitch until active warm ups conclude prior to the pre-game festivities outlined above. Ramping up intensity should be a designed component of warm ups.
Warm ups, especially the individual components of warming up should be fraught with challenges. Working on simple ball handling to attempting more complex combinations and moves. Failures in warm ups are okay for the simple reason that failures are part of every game. A critical component of every game is learning from in-game failure and overcoming in-game adversity. Should not preparing to do this be a part of our warm up?
By now a new vision of warming up should be emerging. At least it should be if I have written well. Warm ups are an opportunity not just to prepare for playing, but to learn and improve. It's not just about "perfecting" things worked on in practices leading up to the match. No, warm ups should be a continued exploration of your capability's and evolution of your abilities.
High school soccer presents a vast array of problem solving opportunities for coaches. In the best of programs there will exist multiple teams on a developmental scale - Varsity, JV A, JV B, Freshman and Middle School teams. I've been there. At the other end of the spectrum are high school teams with varsity only. Sometimes these varsity only teams are even co-ed. I've been there too.
As a new parent-coach back in the mid 1990's I inquired of the local high school coach what he believed most freshmen were lacking when they came out for the high school teams. His reply was"the ability to execute a push pass". As this man would become a mentor to me, I took him at his word. The youth players I worked with could all successfully execute the push pass when they entered 9th grade. When my son was being recruited to play in college I often asked coaches what they believed was the biggest weakness in most recruits games. The answer was a near unanimous - "spatial awareness". If you have ever worked with a team of wide ranging abilities, you will surely appreciate this response.
My most recent club team and most recent high school team both suffered from a lack of cohesive and uniform understanding of spatial awareness. It's often said a team is only as strong as its weakest player on the field. There is a measure of truth to this especially as it concerns spatial awareness.
I often inform my teams the game is a living breathing thing and they must work on developing a relationship with it through listening and observing how it changes in response to ball and player movement. The boundaries and various lines affect this as well as the distances required on restarts. Even the referee crew impacts responses to spatial awareness. So too do the technical ability, tactical understanding and physical ability of individual players.
In essence, spatial awareness is about the relationship between Space and Pace. In this context spatial awareness becomes about learning to manipulate the game to your and your teams benefit. Using spatial awareness in conjunction with the principles of play is what formations and tactics are all about. When a player is able to consciously recognize how to create space for a teammate and use space created for himself by a teammate, intentionally manipulating the game becomes a real possibility.
These relationships are simple and yet very complex all at once. Bringing someone new to the game up to speed with a player who has several years experience can be a daunting task. The difference in understanding of spatial awareness between a seasoned player of club soccer and a recreational player can also be significant. When players of widely varying abilities are all on a single team it can prove difficult to find common ground. This where ideas about a team only being as strong as its weakest player take root.
This is the problem I am seeking to solve going forward. Spatial awareness in soccer is something that begins developing at the youngest of ages. Simple ideas like boundaries and which half of the field is to be defended and which half has the goal to be scored in are spatial awareness. When a player comes to the game later in their youth the theory of these simply spatial awareness concepts might be known yet the practicality of them never experienced. Extend that train of thought to the differences in understanding of spatial awareness between a recreational player and a club player or even an entry level club player and an elite level club player. This s a recipe for frustration all around for both players and coaches alike.
In past seasons I have relied on older more experienced players to mentor younger or inexperienced players in practical settings. I've come to question this approach as results have been found to be wanting. I have also used a classroom and written homework approach using soccer journals. The two approaches in combination have been effective. The issue has been in players being steadfast in their commitment to recording what they are learning in their journals. I must assume responsibility for this as in the interest of players being able to write down their thoughts honestly about any and all things soccer I have deemed a measure of privacy to be important to the process. I am being forced to make daily writing assignments mandatory and checked by the coaches.
I am also going to include more handouts and more opportunities for visual learning experiences. This will include instructional videos and analysis of videos of practice and games. A multi pronged approach to the situation. This is not an ideal scenario, of course. It is however a necessary one. I would rather spend time on the field than in the classroom but must also face the reality of the situation and adapt what I do accordingly to be as effective as possible in coaching my teams.


EventLog = "Application", "Security", "System"
If I execute this to create the MOF in WMF 4, it works fine (provided I have the modules in a location PowerShell can locate). However, If I switch over to a machine with WMF 5 it tells me that the xWinEventLog could not be loaded (I've made sure the module is in the Documents modules folder, Program Files, and even in the System32 modules directory). If I do an Import-DSCResource in the EventLogConfig configuration block, the DEVWebFarmIIS configuration block has no idea what methods are in the other config block. It tells me only DependsOn is available.
Did the syntax for doing nested configurations change? I've been trying to look it up with no luck.
This is more a "composite config," and I'm not sure I realized that this worked in v4 the way you have it here. I've always created the "nested" configuration as a separate entity and set it up like a DSC Resource, and then called it from the "parent" configuration.
I actually got the idea from the video Jeffery Snover did for the MVA (Getting Started with Desired State Configuration #6 starting at 24 minutes). He did it with Services, however. I've found it works fine with the "built-ins" in DSC...like the File resource or WindowsFeature resource. But, once I try it with one of the newer resources (like xWinEventLog or xWebsite) it works on v4, but not in v5 when generating the MOF.
I get the term xWinEventLog is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet error.
I tried doing the Import-DSCResource -Name "xWinEventLog" right above the param section in EventLogConfig configuration, but if I run the code above it tells me a LogNames parameter could not be found.
I'm going to try it from a fresh machine tomorrow and see. My system I'm running from it now is a brand new Surface Book with the module in Program Files and my Documents folder (as well as the modules directory under System32).

Our Partners Have Really Nice SaaS!
By Doriane Mouret / Jun 28, 2012
The AppDirect adventure began in July 2009 with just a few lines of code. Fast forward to November 2010, and we had built the premier platform for independent developers to sell their business applications around the world. When we launched in January 2011, 20 of these apps were available in our catalog. Today, hundreds of applications are offered through our global network of marketplaces.
From the beginning, our mission has been to create an easy integration experience for developers, giving them the power to reach millions of potential customers on different platforms worldwide. With a quick integration to our API , developers get unprecedented visibility along with robust tools to market their apps. That way, developers can focus on their core competencies and do what they do best—create awesome applications.
We're inspired by the number of SaaS companies that share our vision and join us in our mission to help businesses make the move to the cloud. It takes some really Nice Apps to convince business owners to start using cloud-based applications, and it's become very clear that our developers have Nice SaaS—actually, make that the best SaaS around.

How did Huawei Ark compiler revolutionize? Will it be used on the Hongmeng Ark OS?
By Daniel Camilo 2019-06-05 2291 0
At the Huawei new product launch conference in Shanghai, in addition to the Huawei P30 series that can shoot the moon, Yu also threw out two "bombshells" at the level of software, namely ark compiler and EROFS super file system. Among them, Huawei ark compiler can achieve "architecture-level optimization and significantly improve performance", and can solve the problem of android program "executing while explaining", which is called "android performance revolution" by Yu Chengdong.
After the launch, Huawei's Ark compiler caused a heated debate in the outside world.
So, what exactly is the Ark compiler? In the face of these problems, Huawei finally held a media salon two weeks later, a more detailed interpretation of the Ark compiler.
How compilers work in the Android ecosystem
Before we get to know the Ark compiler, we have to first understand how the compiler works in the Android operating system.
From VirtualXposed\/, it is understood that most applications of the current Android platform are written in the Java language, the CPU can only understand the assembly instructions, can not directly identify the Java language of the virtual machine instructions, in order to allow the CPU to run programs written in the Java language, there are generally two ways:
At the Huawei new product launch conference in Shanghai, in addition to the Huawei P30 series that can shoot the moon, yu also threw out two "bombshells" at the level of software, namely ark compiler and EROFS super file system. Introduce a middle layer, which is responsible for executing Java code, and then compile the middle layer itself into assembly instructions that the CPU can understand, namely the cpu-> middle layer -> Java code. If this middle layer takes the Java language as input directly, understanding a Java statement translates the Java language to let the CPU execute a section, we generally call this pattern "interpreted execution. "There is no doubt that this approach is quite inefficient. Translate the Java language directly into a machine language that CPU can understand. There are two ways to do this: first, compile Java code directly into the machine language before the program runs. This pattern is called AOT(Ahead of time) compilation; Second, once the program is up and running, the Java language is compiled into machine language in real time and executed. This pattern is called JIT(Just in time) compilation. Specifically, on the Android platform, code compilation goes through several stages. Among them, Huawei ark compiler can achieve "architecture-level optimization and significantly improve performance", and can solve the problem of android program "executing while explaining", which is called "android performance revolution" by yu chengdong.
Before Android 5.0 officially adopted ART
, Android USES the interpreted execution + JIT method to execute Java code.At this stage it was the real "explain and execute" mode, the code was quite inefficient, and with GC(garbage collection), which was also bad, Android was very difficult to use.
In Android 5.0 to Android 6.0 stage
, Google launched ART (Android Runtime) to address previous Java code execution efficiency issues. The complete AOT model is used at this stage; When the Android app is installed, all Java code is compiled into machine code in advance. This pattern has two drawbacks:
Installation speed is very slow. Even Qualcomm Dragons 855 it may take a minute to compile a larger application (such as Alipay) in the AOT mode.
And at that time the CPU was not as good as it is now, and it takes a long time to install an app. What's more, the system OTA opens up the opportunity to perform AOT operations on all applications, which can take a long time to boot.
When disk space is consumed, the volume expands dramatically after the Java code is compiled into a machine code. Great improvements have been made to Android 7.0, Google; This improvement is based on the fact that when we use an app, basically everyone uses only a fraction of its functionality, so why compile all the code? So only compile the part of the code that the user often uses OK, In this way, the installation is faster, and when the user starts, the system can know which part of the code is often executed, this part of the code compiled into machine code, the speed of operation is also fast.
So Google introduced JIT, when the execution mode is AOT JIT interpretation execution. In specific terms:
Apps are installed quickly without AOT compilation. The first time an application is used there is no machine code, so only execution can be interpreted. Once an application is running, the system collects information about code that is often run and does two things: 1) compile Java code directly into machine code (JIT) at run time when necessary, and then use machine code execution to improve performance.2) save this "frequently run code information". When the device is idle, the system compiles the "hot code information" saved by the application runtime directly into machine code (AOT).Android 8.0 has improved the interpreter, greatly improving the execution efficiency of the interpretation mode; Android 10.0 provides a way to pre-install hot code so that applications can know that common code will be pre-compiled at the time of installation. As you can see, the current execution mode of the Android platform has reached a good balance between space usage + installation speed + running speed.
In summary, the current Android uses a comprehensive model that explains the JIT AOT that can be executed, but it does not get rid of the premise that the app uses Java code when it is packaged as an APK. In other words, as the APK becomes a user-configurable process, it goes through a compilation process within the Android system, which is a hurdle.
According to Huawei's interpretation in the media salon, this hurdle in the existing Android, known as the virtual Machine, referred to as the VM, it contains translators and compilers, the purpose of which is to convert the Java advanced language into a machine can understand the language- This conversion process results in carton, and the unified collection of memory garbage from the VM will also bring carton.
What exactly has Huawei's Ark compiler changed
First, the Ark compiler is a compilation tool built with Huawei's EMUI 9.1 operating system.
According to Huawei, although the Ark compiler was released on April 11, 2019, Huawei began to lay out 5 years ago, and in 2013 launched the self-research compiler HCC,2014-year programming great God Fred Chow joined as chief scientist of Huawei Compiler technology, and in 2016 Huawei became The compiler and programming language Lab, which invested hundreds of of the team of experts, went through a number of attempts to translate the machine code on EMUI 9.1.
According to the code running logic of the Android operating system described above, the biggest advantage of the Huawei compiler is that it bypasses the VM.
Simply put, with a team of hundred experts, the Huawei Ark compiler can turn advanced language (Java) directly into machine code without having to go through the VM compiler built into the Android operating system. According to Huawei, the application compiled by the Ark compiler was completed during the development phase, that is, as long as it is a compiler compiled application, after the application market on the shelves, the user downloads the APK is compiled.
In other words, through the Ark compiler, the developer's app has been converted into machine-recognizable code before downloading, so it can be quickly installed, started, and run on the phone without having to compile through the VM--to some extent, the Ark compiler is bringing the compilation process forward to the application development phase, This significantly reduces the operational burden on smartphones and operating systems.
According to Huawei, after adopting the Huawei compiler, the lifting effect is as follows:
EMUI 9.1 After the Ark compiler was applied to system components only, the system's smooth speed increased by 24% and the system's response speed increased by 44%, while the operational fluency of third-party applications (currently using Sina Weibo Speed edition) increased by 60%. What can not be ignored is that, in fact, in order to achieve the results that Huawei says, it is first necessary for third-party app developers to use the Ark compiler to retrofit their apps ahead of schedule to be able to launch the Huawei App Store, which is why by bringing called on developers to participate actively on April 11.
In addition to code compilation, the Ark compiler also provides a more efficient memory mechanism, which differs from Android memory recycling in that:
Memory management is a key part of program development and operation, and is closely related to system fluency. Android uses a centralized recycling mechanism for memory collection, and it is more important to pause the app when the sound is recycled globally, which is one of the root cause of random carton. The Ark compiler provides a more efficient memory recovery mechanism that eliminates the need to pause applications and recycle them at any time, greatly increasing speed of operation.
In addition, in the compilation Environment of the Ark compiler, the code can also be optimized. Currently, because Android ART's AoT and JIT Dynamic compilation is limited by resources because it is running on the phone, only simple optimization algorithms can be used. The Ark compiler, because it is compiled during the application development phase, allows different applications to be flexible with different compilation optimizations, and because compilation in the development environment is not limited by the performance of the phone, more advanced optimization algorithms can be used to optimize the performance of each application.

The Gothic Revival
St. Patrick's Pro-Cathedral, built in 1850, at the height of the American Gothic Revival, is an excellent example of the simpler versions of the style. This simplicity is reflected in the choice of exterior material, brick rather than stone, and the lack of spatial complexity in the interior plan. A straightforward nave and aisle scheme, the church has side aisles terminating in delicately detailed apses. The nave, the central space of the building, resolves its arcaded progress in a columned multifaceted full-height apse.
The architectural details are typical of the period and style, in not being exact copies but highly stylized and freely interpreted renditions. The vaulting of the ceiling, highlighted by the recent repainting, is a fine example of German Gothic with its cats- cradle of ribbing and heavily foliated, newly gilded, bosses. Bosses began as a decorative trick to cover up the inelegant intersections of multiple ribs and ultimately developed, as here, into important architectural details.
The other important element in the architectural program for the pro-cathedral is the Gothic tracery of the windows. Unlike most examples of Gothic Revival, the designer of the church did not select one simple form for the lacey stone work at the tops of the windows, rather he chose to use multiple examples from the pattern books he referenced, making for an interesting catalogue of Gothic forms.
Note should also be made of the original altar furniture still in place. The High Altar, a greatly diminished remnant of its original glory, is deeply carved with high style Gothic details, emphasized by the new color scheme that picks out these details. The credence table, to the right of the altar, echoes the details and finish of the pro-cathedral masterpiece, the John Jelliff Cathedra, the Episcopal Throne. This black walnut architectural fantasy, by the prominent Newark furniture-maker, is one of the finest extant examples of the nineteenth century carver's art.
The latest renovation of this venerable seat of the Church in Newark has highlighted and enhanced the architecture of the pro-cathedral.
The structural bones of the building, the ribs of the vaulting, the arches of the nave, the tracery of the windows, all have been emphasized by the dark stone color contrasting with the light stone color of the vaulting and walls. The marbleizing of the semi-attached columns of the aisles and the clustered columns of the nave enhance the vertical thrust of the interior.
The focal point of the new interior program is the chancel apse, the sanctuary of the church. Here the decoration, both old and new, is more elaborate; the moldings are gilded and patterned.
There also are murals, depicting the escutcheons of the first five bishops of the Church in Newark. These have been cleaned and brightened. The columns of the upper register have been marbleized in verde antiqua, a green marble, while the clustered columns of the blind arcade below have been marbleized in red brown marble. These are bracketed by columns marbleized to match those of the nave, thus visually integrating the two spaces. The walls between these column clusters have been given a stone patterning that replicates the original wall treatment of the 1850's, as revealed by the restoration. The vaulting of the sanctuary has been painted midnight blue with gold stars, representing the vault of heaven.
This color scheme employs the colors of the liturgical year — green, red, blue, gold and white, which is found in the marble of the new altar and reredos.
The new altar in white and green marble with red and gold accents is the focus of the revived sanctuary. Behind the new altar, atop the antique Gothic altar, is a new marble reredos, a stylized reinterpretation of the original, with its Gothic arches and green columnettes capped with carved antique capitals. The new reredos serves as a backdrop for the church's new tabernacle and the beautiful bronze crucifix mounted above.
John M. Pierce, Interior Design Consultant.
In 2017, portraits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary were placed on either side of the old altar in the sanctuary. They remind the parishioners that the parish has been consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The bronze tabernacle, about 100 years old, formerly was in another church. It was refurbished as a gift of Father Joseph Doyle, a former parochial vicar of the parish. Father Doyle also contributed the magnificent refurbished Art Deco crucifix from the same era. These splendid fixtures enhance the renovated sanctuary.

Q: cannot telnet on external IP I am a newbie to networking, so need some help to understand if what I am doing is right:
I have a VM which hosts a Ubuntu guest OS with an internal IP: 192.168.15.6 I have setup an ssh server on port 8002 (in case the ISP blocks 22). I also have a web server (Apache 2) setup on port 8012 (in case the ISP blocks 80).
My external IP is: xx.yy.aa.bb. I have configured my router to port forward port 8002, and now I am able to acces my web server from an external box. But going by the same pattern, I port forwarded my ssh port as:
source ip: xx.yy.aa.bb
source netmask: 255.255.255.0

destination ip: 192.168.15.6
destination netmask: 255.255.255.255 (I cannot change this)

destination port start: 8002
destination port end: 8002
destination port map: 8002

Why am I not able to telnet into my machine?

A: Its difficult to understand the question and config properly, but why have you specified a source IP and netmask - it would seem to me this should not be specified, or be 0.0.0.0 in each case.
My guess is that it is only forwarding requests coming from xx.yy.aa.X (where X is 1-254), when what you want is to forward anything it sees.

Getting a little reinforcement from a friend, a trainer, or even a positive quote may be all you need to keep pushing you.
Winter is now behind us (even though the mornings are a bit cool) so it's time to kick your fitness into high gear to get ready for summer.
Especially if you aren't sticking to that fitness routine you started at the first of the year. Maybe you're disappointed because you don't think you are getting the results you want as fast as you'd like. Or perhaps you aren't as motivated to get to the gym. Is that cupcake calling your name?
Well, everyone feels that way from time to time. It's natural and that's why so many people quit a gym or slip back into their old eating habits. Before you give up, think of why you started and find a way to get motivated and inspired to continue on that road to better health. Getting a little reinforcement from a friend, a trainer, or even a positive quote may be all you need to keep pushing you.
If you haven't worked out in a while you may feel like everyone around you is in much better shape that you are. They are lifting weights, flipping tires, doing pull ups with ease and you're struggling to just catch your breath.
First of all, we all started somewhere. And that's at the beginning!! You have to stop thinking about what others are doing and focus on what you are doing. You may struggle to catch your breath. That's okay. Soon, you will be the one the new person is looking at!
Your body can stand almost anything. It's your mind that you have to convince.
While your mind knows you should stick to a workout and eat healthy, many times it also convinces us that skipping one more day won't hurt anything. Eating that fried chicken is okay today! We all feel that way from time to time.
It's not necessarily an issue of laziness or lack of motivation. It may just be the way our brain has been wired. You can actually rewire those circuits that convince you to skip workouts or slack off. To eat that lovely salad rather than that juicy cheeseburger and fries!! You may have to work at it.
You can't expect to cheat at fitness and it work! You'll soon realize that by doing things that put your positive lifestyle in jeopardy (like cheating on your diet or skipping workouts), you only hurt yourself.
Rome wasn't built in a day, but they worked on it every single day.
Work hard towards your goals but be smart about it. A very restrictive diet and over-exercising to get rapid weight loss often backfires. Most times you gain the weight back (and more) and you could injure yourself working out. Work in a way that makes you feel healthy and soon you will feel good about yourself. And….others will quickly notice a change not only in your body, but also your attitude.
Remember, if you don't take control over the direction your life is heading, you could end up somewhere you really don't want to be! When you get up and change…your body has no choice but to follow. Lose your excuses…find results…and let's kick your fitness into high gear.

Q: Getting error 'TypeError: Cannot read property 'id' of undefined' on browser refresh In my portfolio project, when clicked on project image it redirects to a new page giving details of that particular project which works without any flaw, but, when browser is refreshed, it gives error as mentioned above in title. What may be the cause?
Project.js (Here Project Card is created)
{
        data2.map((data, index) => {
          return <MDBCol key={index}>
          <MDBCard style={{ width: "20rem"}}>
          <Link to={{ pathname: `/details/${data.id}`, data:data }}>
          <MDBCardImage className="img-fluid" src={data.img}/>
          </Link>
          </MDBCard>

          </MDBCol>
        })
      }

Details.js (When clicked on project image redirects to this page)
export default class Details extends Component {
    render() {
        const { data } = this.props.location;
        return (
            <Layout fixedHeader>

{data.title}

            </Layout>
        )
    }
}

The error it gives is as below. What possible changes could be made?

A: Here is the solution to keep maintaining your data on refreshing page.
Details.js
 export default class Details extends Component {
  state = {
    data: this.props.location.data ? this.props.location.data:JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('object'))
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    if(this.props.location.data!==undefined)
    localStorage.setItem("object", JSON.stringify(this.props.location.data));
  }
  render() {
    const {data} =this.state;
    let title = data ? data.title : "";
    let img = data ? data.img : "";
    let id = data ? data.id :0;
    return (
      <Layout fixedHeader>

{title}

    </Layout>
    );
  }
}

A: Thats because you are sending a data object using Link but when the browser is refreshed that data object is not there anymore since Link is not responsible for providing it with one.
either put all your required data in the url or store it inside localStorage

A: In your details page add this code
     Export default class Details extends Component {
     render() {
         const { data } = this.props.location;
         return (
            {data &&
             <Layout fixedHeader>

{data.title}

             </Layout>
                   }
               )
              }
            }

A: When you refresh the pushed data wont be there.
First Way
So either you can add all the required details in the url, like how search in redbus works you will be able to see since the params is in the url it will be easy to refresh.
Second Way
So either you can put details in the url if data is more, putting in url is not good, else you can check whether data is there in the component, if its not there with the id you can fetch the data.
Third Way
Since you are using react router,  you can do this.props.history.push and add the state .
this.props.history.push({
          pathname : '/Taskactive',
          state :{
          role_id : responseJson.userFormat,
          userName : this.userName,
          userid: this.refs.usrname.value
          }
          }
        );

and in the component you can fetch like this

Air Force denies request for F-35 demonstration at Truax Field
Published on: October 4, 2019 February 12, 2020 by safeskiescleanwaterwi_z1pqdc Category:News
Wisconsin State Journal, October 4, 2019 – MITCHELL SCHMIDT
[OUR COMMENT: Many of us have been concerned that a one-time demonstration might not be an accurate representation of what people would be hearing most of the time. But note that the measure of the sound impact is clearly an average over 24 hours – not a single flight.]
The U.S. Air Force has denied requests for a demonstration of the noise difference between the F-16 jets already present at Truax Field and proposed, louder F-35 jets.
In a letter to U.S. Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Black Earth, acting Air Force Secretary Matthew Donovan said an F-35 take-off and landing demonstration at the Madison-based airfield would "only present a momentary experience of that aircraft's noise, which would serve no evaluative purpose" and would "inject subjectivity that would undermine the deliberative environmental analysis."
Donovan said the sound impact of a jet is measured as an average of all airplane noise in the area over 24 hours — not with a single flight, which he said can be influenced by wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity and the plane's take-off weight.

Dodsal working on $404m Gulf projects
India's Dodsal Group is executing several projects in power, energy, oil and gas sectors in the Gulf, worth $404 million, including four projects worth $130 million in the UAE.
The organisation, whose international operations are based in Dubai, is also eyeing major engineering, construction, plant and infrastructure projects in the region.
"We are going to complete a $23 million project for Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) at the second phase of its 800MW K Station in Jebel Ali. We have got a $18 million contract for the 1,500MW Shuweihat Power Plant in April this year, to be completed in July 2003," said Clarence Nunes, director of Dodsal. "We have been awarded a $33-million contract to build a 20 kilometre, 42" gas pipeline from Ruwais to Shuweihat in Abu Dhabi in March this year, to be completed in next January.
"Last month, we have began constructing a 180 kilometre and 24″ gas pipeline from Al Ain to Fujairah for Dolphin Energy at the cost of $56 million which is scheduled to end in August 2003."
Vivek Prakash, director of the company said, Dodsal has witnessed a 100 per cent growth in business in 2002, over its performance last year.
"We have doubled our growth this year over 2001 and expect to grow by another 50 per cent in 2003 over the current year," he said.

Itching to Text while Behind the Wheel? Pull into One of New York's New 'Texting Zones'
via Governor Andrew Cuomo
Are you one to text and drive? If you live in New York State, there's good (and bad) news coming your way. First the good: this week Governor Andrew Cuomo unveiled special "Texting Zones" along the New York State Thruway and other state highways. Now when your phone starts to blow up and your thumbs itch to text, you can pull over into the nearest Texting Zone to get your fix without worrying about getting fined. Now the bad: New York just raised the fine for texting while driving 365%. Ouch.
Existing Park-n-Ride facilities, rest stops, and parking areas along the state's highways and Thruway will now double as texting havens. New York State will place 298 signs along major highways pointing drivers to the 91 Texting Zones. "With this new effort," Governor Cuomo said, "we are sending a clear message to drivers that there is no excuse to take your hands off the wheel and eyes off the road because your text can wait until the next Texting Zone."
Over the summer, New York State police cracked down on distracted drivers, big time. Between July 4 and September 2, the state issued a whopping 21,580 tickets to distracted drivers, 5,553 of which were related to texting. Compare that to 2012, when New York issued just 5,208 tickets. For you lucky texters, distracted driving will now get you five points on your driver's license in addition to a $50-$150 fine for a first offense, up to $200 for a second offense within 18 months, and up to $400 for a third offense, according to Mashable. New York has also increased license suspension and revocation periods for distracted driving among young and new drivers.
Despite the steep ticket prices and the fancy new zones for texting, something tells me drivers won't change their habits much. We're simply addicted to our phones.
Do you think New York's new "texting while driving" policies will help curb distracted driving? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section.

March 18, 2013 at the Memorial Museum of Cosmonautics presented a new line of robots created by the Russian company "RBOT" (CJSC). CEO Alexei Knyazev presented new media leading Russian media demonstrated their capabilities and answered questions. New robots developed by the innovative concept of "robot with interchangeable intelligence". Robot with interchangeable intelligence is a device that "brain" which is a smartphone or tablet that is placed on the site of the "head" robot. "Neck" is a robot manipulator, folding into a compact design, the top of which is available for mounting the connector "head" of the robot.
Alexey Knyazev introduced two models of the new line: desktop and mobile. Elder, a mobile robot model, Alexey Knyazev named Swan (Swan), and a new line of robots called R.BOT Synergy, reflecting its essence – the connection benefits of its parts in a single product with qualitatively new capabilities.
At the climax of the presentation robot Swan backlit left center stage to the music of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" and danced for the guests into a beautiful "swan." Robot finished his speech of thanks and bows to the audience to journalists and guests.
The shape of Swan folded hemisphere is 40 cm in diameter, and its appearance can vary depending on the posture. When the robot slightly raises his head and pulls the neck, then it is possible to guess the silhouette of a beautiful swan, and if the neck arching back – texture scorpion.
New robots can be controlled by a remote operator, serving as telepresence, or work offline, using the possibilities of intelligent software to be installed on your smartphone or tablet. The presentation showcased managed mode and some independent functions. For example, the robot to sleep and fell down, saying, "robot rest", but on the approach of man, rose, and got to know him, welcoming voice. Robot to recognize employees, and journalists, who have decided to test this function, passing a simple registration procedure.
Now your smartphone or tablet running Android, can easily turn into a multi-functional personal robot, he had only to be installed on one of the robots with interchangeable intelligent ruler R.BOT Synergy. He will also charge the battery robot. When working on the device's screen to appear pretty "face", and to output the sound are two speakers located in the building robot.
The new product can be used in all areas of human life, and especially where the owner must know the preferences, interests and habits. R.BOT Synergy can be your personal secretary and assistant at work, a nurse and a guard house, to become a tour guide and tour guide at the museum, hostess and concierge at the hotel, a waiter in a restaurant, etc. Now robots R.BOT Synergy will take care of you and your family: reading stories to children, to help communicate with parents and friends, stream content from the Internet, at your request, the robot itself is gone, folded into a compact structure. R.BOT Synergy also changes the usual means of communication people, making them inaccessible earlier vitality, brilliance and emotion.
Alexey Knyazev said that in the near future the company will release for general use software API interface to any software developer for Android could develop programs for new robots. Everyone can download for free from the website API. The company's plans and adaptation of new robots for use with smartphones and tablet operating systems, iOS and Windows Phone.
Alexey Knyazev also spoke about market trends of consumer robotics perspective changes in the interests of software developers for mobile devices, and the dominant search of the perfect robot models of the future.
The declared cost of robots with interchangeable intelligence be 299 $US. for the desktop version, and from 999 $US for mobile model SWAN.

Michael John « Johnny » Giles, né le  à Cabra, un quartier du nord de Dublin en Irlande, est un footballeur et entraîneur irlandais. Il est considéré, à l'instar de joueurs comme Liam Brady ou Roy Keane, comme l'un des meilleurs footballeurs irlandais de tous les temps. Il a fait la majeure partie de sa carrière professionnelle dans le club anglais de Leeds United dont il a porté les couleurs entre 1963 et 1975. Il connait là sa période la plus faste avec deux titres de champions en 1969 et 1974 et cinq places de vice-champion en 1965, 1966, 1970, 1971 et 1972.

Sa carrière de joueur

Ses débuts
Johnny Giles s'initie au football dans un club de quartier très connu pour son école de football, le Stella Maris Football Club, avant de rejoindre les équipes de jeune du Home Farm FC. Rapidement remarqué, il signe dans le club anglais de Manchester United en 1956 en football. Après trois années passées dans les différentes équipes réserves du club, il se voit donner sa première chance en équipe première en 1959 dans un club alors en pleine reconstruction après le désastre de Munich dans lequel huit joueurs périrent. Il est de plus sélectionné pour la première fois en équipe de la République d'Irlande de football alors qu'il n'a pas encore 19 ans.

Au cours des quatre années suivantes Giles est régulièrement titularisé en équipe première. Il partage le milieu de terrain avec Bobby Charlton et Denis Law. Il fait partie de l'équipe qui remporte la Coupe d'Angleterre en 1963. C'est lui qui initie l'action qui aboutit au but marqué par David Herd et qui donne la victoire à son équipe. Peu après la victoire, il demande à être transféré vers Leeds United. Ce transfert se conclut pour la somme de £33,000.

Leeds United
Dès la première saison, il participe à la levée du titre de deuxième division et ainsi à la montée dans l'élite anglaise. Pour sa première saison en première division Leeds échoue de peu dans le gain d'un formidable doublé Coupe/Championnat, battu de peu par respectivement Liverpool FC et Manchester United.

Sous la direction de Don Revie, Giles forme un duo de milieu de terrain étincelant avec Billy Bremner. L'équipe se forme peu à peu autour de ces deux joueurs. Giles et Bremner ont des styles de jeu très comparables et très complémentaires. Giles est considéré comme la force créative du duo et Bremner comme le ratisseur de ballon. Mais les deux joueurs sont parfaitement capables de jouer sur les deux registres. Petit à petit néanmoins, Giles se retrouve affublé d'une réputation de joueur dur et parfois violent.

En 1967-1968, Leeds United remporte à la fois le championnat et la Coupe des villes de foires. C'est la première saison où Giles est sérieusement blessé. L'année 1970 est de nouveau une très belle saison pour le milieu de terrain même si aucun trophée n'est remporté. Leeds perd son titre de champion en terminant derrière Everton FC, puis perd la finale de la Coupe d'Angleterre contre Chelsea FC et enfin s'incline en demi-finale de la Coupe d'Europe des clubs champions contre le Celtic Glasgow.

La saison 1970-1971 commence mal avec une inexplicable défaite au quatrième tour de la Coupe d'Angleterre contre Colchester United. Leeds se rattrape ensuite en faisant un excellent parcours en championnat, ne perdant le titre que lors de la dernière journée au profit d'Arsenal FC. Leeds remporte sa première Coupe d'Angleterre, et Giles sa seconde, en battant en 1972 Arsenal au stade de Wembley.

Le départ à la retraite de Jack Charlton en 1973, fait de Johnny Giles le plus ancien membre de l'équipe. Il combine alors son rôle de joueur dans son club et celui de sélectionneur pour son équipe nationale. En 1974, une série de 29 matchs sans défaite donne un nouveau titre de champion à Leeds United. Mais l'atmosphère au sein du club se détériore. Revie quitte le club pour prendre en main l'équipe nationale anglaise. Giles est alors pointé du doigt pour expliquer ce départ. Pourtant Revie propose à la direction du club de nommer Giles à sa place. Il est alors âgé de 34 ans et approche de la fin de sa carrière. Le conseil d'administration du club lui préfère Brian Clough, le manager de Derby County. Ce choix crée une grande polémique à Leeds car Clough avait auparavant critiqué publiquement le club de Leeds et le travail de Revie.

Clough n'a jamais réussi à Leeds. En conflit avec le vestiaire qui souhaitait majoritairement que Giles prenne la succession de Devie, il est remercié par la direction du club après seulement 44 jours. Johnny Giles n'est une fois de plus pas choisi pour devenir le manager de Leeds. Le poste va à Jimmy Armfield. Giles recentre son attention sur son jeu et après une saison exceptionnelle participe à sa première finale de Coupe d'Europe des clubs champions. Leeds United perd le match 2-0 contre le Bayern Munich. À la fin de la saison, Giles accepte une offre de West Bromwich Albion qui lui propose le rôle d'entraîneur-joueur, tout en lui permettant de rester l'entraîneur de l'équipe nationale irlandaise. Johnny Giles quitte Leeds United après 12 ans de présence, 521 matchs et 114 buts marqués.

Sa carrière d'entraîneur

A West Bromwich Albion
Sous la direction de Johnny Giles West Bromwich Albion est promu en deuxième division en avril 1976 puis termine à la  en deuxième division en 1977. Giles démissionne de son poste le  et rentre en Irlande pour prendre la direction des Shamrock Rovers.

Giles revient à Birmingham pour reprendre la direction de West Bromwich lors de la saison 1983-1984. Il y reste jusqu'en 1985.

En équipe nationale d'Irlande
Johnny Giles est le sélectionneur de l'équipe de la République d'Irlande de football pendant quasiment la totalité des années 1970. Il prend en main l'équipe en 1973 alors qu'il est encore joueur à Leeds United. Il inverse la tendance par rapport à la décennie précédente qu'il avait connu en tant que joueur en remettant l'équipe d'Irlande dans le sens de la marche. En 1974, il sélectionne pour la première fois Liam Brady alors âgé de 18 ans. Son équipe échoue de peu dans la qualification à la Coupe du monde de football 1978, ne perdant que contre la France.

Pendant cette période il reste longtemps joueur et entraineur de l'équipe nationale. Il est neuf fois capitaine de l'équipe et marque un but.

En Irlande et aux États-Unis
Johnny Giles passe en tout cinq ans et demi à la tête du Shamrock Rovers Football Club, le club le plus titré d'Irlande. Pendant cette période, il ne remporte qu'un seul trophée : la Coupe d'Irlande de football 1978. De nouveau il agit comme entraîneur-joueur. Il marque même deux fois en Coupe d'Europe des vainqueurs de coupe.  Il démissionne le  pour traverser l'Atlantique. Il intègre brièvement l'encadrement de l'équipe nationale canadienne puis celle des États-Unis avant d'être nommé à la tête des Vancouver Whitecaps en 1981. Il y reste trois saisons. En 1982 il est élu meilleur entraîneur de la NASL.

Après le football
Après sa carrière de footballeur puis d'entraîneur terminée, Johnny Giles retourne en Irlande et entame une longue carrière de journaliste sportif et de consultant en football à la télévision nationale RTÉ. Il commente notamment les soirées de championnat anglais diffusées le samedi soir, les compétitions européennes et les matchs internationaux de l'équipe d'Irlande. Giles est aussi le consultant principal pour le football de la radio irlandaise Newstalk 106. Il jouit en Irlande d'une aura certaine et ses commentaires sont très suivis.

I'm thinking about getting into the trades, but I'm not sure how to do that? How do I find a job as an apprentice?
The trades are an excellent career option for many reasons.
First, as an apprentice, you spend about 80 per cent of your time earning a wage while you learn on the job from a qualified tradesperson. First-year apprentices earn about half of a journeyman's wage.
As you take more training and get more experience, your pay increases. You spend the remainder of your time taking technical training at a college or technical institution. Apprenticeship programs can last anywhere from one to four years, depending on the trade.
Second, the trades are rewarding. Tradespeople tend to earn good wages plus they have the opportunity to move up into management roles. Many tradespeople also go on to teach apprentices or open their own businesses.
Third, tradespeople are eligible for grants of $1,000 per year for completing their first and second years. They are also eligible for a $2,000 Apprenticeship Completion Grant plus a $500 per year tools deduction on their tax return.
Fourth, there are so many career options within the trades that you are bound to find something you really like. The trades are not limited to Plumbers and Electricians. In Alberta, there are 50 different trades you can apprentice in from Appliance Service Technician to Chef to Well-testing Services Supervisor.

1. Pick your trade. Get as much information as you can about your choices from the Internet, school career counselors, tradespeople you know, or your nearest Apprenticeship and Industry Training Office.
2. Find an employer who will hire you as an apprentice. Getting a job as an apprentice is no different than finding any other job. You can also contact the local union hall for your chosen trade and they might be able to hire you.
3. Apply. Once you have a job, you and your employer need to complete an Apprenticeship Training Application / Contract and return it to the nearest office of the Apprenticeship and Industry Training Branch.
