Transcript: Gary Kubiak Addressed the Media on Tuesday
Vikings Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Advisor
Gary Kubiak
Good morning. I don't do this anymore, so y'all go ahead.
Q: Would you like to do this again?
A: No, I'm enjoying what I'm doing right now, so I'm just fine. I'll do a drive by about every eight weeks. How about that?
Q: With the offense putting up the type of numbers it has, is this how you guys envisioned it when you got here?
A: I think we're what we want to be. That's where we're starting to work in that direction. We've done that. The one thing about the NFL season is it's so long. People always talk about the 2019 season, but it is so long you kind of have to take it in months and see where you're at and how you're doing, how do you get better. I think the thing that's been really encouraging for us is when you look at the real young players, some of the young players we're playing with—starting rookie center, got a rookie tight end who's basically playing as a starter along with Rudy (Kyle Rudolph), a young running back who's a big contributor and then we have a rookie receiver who's started what now, four or five football games. I think that's the thing that's really been encouraging for us moving forward and makes it exciting here going into the home stretch.
Q: Kirk Cousins is giving you some credit for helping him play faster. How would you evaluate his progress?
A: I think how you call plays can help a quarterback play faster, so you have to go to Kevin (Stefanski) with that. I think we have a lot of eyes on Kirk (Cousins). You have Klint (Kubiak) in there, you have me in there, you have Kevin who's coached quarterbacks, and Rick Dennison who's coached quarterbacks. I think as coaches, you're always trying to find out what your guy does best, how you help him play at his best. Making quick decisions, getting rid of the football initially, you can't talk about that enough because it's a game where if you hold the ball, bad things happen. We just try to put a big point of emphasis on that and the way Kevin has called games, I think, has been the most important thing with how Kirk has been able to translate that to Sundays.
Q: Has that mentor-mentee relationship gone how you hoped or planned with Kevin Stefanski?
A: Yeah, it's really been special. I know it's a unique, I guess title or job in this league but Zim (Mike Zimmer) and Rick (Spielman) give me a chance to do that. It's been fun for me. I'm able to sit there with Kevin each day as we game plan and get ready to go do things. I'm able to be with him, in his ear on a play-to-play basis as he calls the game on Sundays. I think it's been really exceptional. We have a really good blend of experience on our coaching staff, I'm talking offensively, and some bright young minds. Those things go together and Kevin is the one that really pulled everyone in the same direction and done a great job with it.
Q: Do you think he's moving toward that head coaching path?
A: I think Kevin's got a brilliant future. The key to getting in position to do those type of things is calling games, calling defenses, calling offenses, making decisions, handling a meeting room of a bunch of players, being able to get the most out of not only players, but coaches as well. Kevin's been exceptional and this is a great opportunity for him this year to do it in a full-time basis. He's doing a great job with it.
Q: How soon could that be do you think?
A: I don't know. I'm sure they don't want to lose him around here. Kevin's got a bright future. He's very young, very smart. There's a couple qualities, I was thinking about this the other day, is being able to be demanding but being very composed. Those are two things that I looked for in young coaches when, I know for me as a head coach, when I was looking for guys to come work for me, and those are two things that Kevin does extremely well.
Q: What do you think is allowing Kirk Cousins to play faster and put up career numbers?
A: Well, I think Kirk's always put up some good numbers. You go back and look at his career, he's done that. I think he's really bought in to what we're trying to be as a football team and as a group. I think Kirk knows he's on a really good football team. We can win a lot of ways when we show up on Sunday. This past weekend was a great example of that. We didn't play the way we wanted to play or had the game go the way we'd like to play it, but yet we turned him loose in the second half. He put it on his back and led us to a big win. I just think that he continues to understand himself better, his relationship with Kevin as we prepare to get ready for games when we sit in those meetings and talk about how Kevin's is going to call the game and Kirk gives him feedback and the job that Klint's doing with him on our day to day basis. I just think all those things are coming together and he's feeling more and more comfortable each week that he goes out there.
Q: The type of season that Stefon Diggs is having, is it all that more significant that he's doing it on a team that is by and large had a run first emphasis?
A: Not only that, obviously we ran the ball a lot early in the season, I think that's been well documented. I think the fact that Adam's (Thielen) been out and the way that Diggsy (Stefon Diggs) has played is even more credit to him. He has gotten doubled, you name it. People are trying to take him out of the football game. What we're having to ask him to do, and I've told him this, when you have a receiver on the field who you're trying to get the ball to and people are taking him away, you really have to challenge the receiver. You have to move. You have to motion and you have to do things maybe you're not comfortable with so we can get you open. He's bought in to that and a great example of that in the second half this past week.
Q: With Kevin specifically these last few weeks, what kind of growth does that give a coordinator when an offensive weapon like Adam Thielen is out?
A: That is a tremendous challenge. That's what you have to learn to do. People are so good in this business. Obviously Vic (Fangio), tremendous defensive football coach, but when you show up on Sunday and whether you're playing (Bill) Belichick or somebody who says this guy won't beat me, but yet it's your job as a coach to say, "Well, that's one of my best players, I've got to give him a chance to beat you." It's a chess match and it's one that takes a lot of work between player and coach to get him loose and give him a chance.
Q: Why do you think the heavier personnel with the fullback and the multiple tight ends is working for you this year?
A: I don't know. We're kind of built that way. Some teams you don't have that personnel. We've got three really good tight ends and they've been healthy, so we've had them up every week. We have the ability with the fullback to play the game that, maybe a third of the teams in this league carry fullbacks, so we're just kind of built to play that way a little bit. Sometimes it does calm the game down a little bit for you offensively, depending on how much defense, you're getting to a certain personnel. It's just the give and take and what gives you the best chance to make some big plays to still be consistent running the ball. It's just something that's worked for us and our health has probably ben a big part of that.
Q: What's it been like to watch Bisi Johnson continue to grow when you sort of helped find him?
A: That's been a big piece. When you lose a player like Adam (Thielen), I don't know how many games Adam's missed now, four or five, something like that, starts. This kid's been put on the spot and some teams are saying, "Hey, this is where you have to go with the ball," and we've been able to go to him. He's made some big plays for us in the game. I think the thing most encouraging is the volume of offense that we ask or guys to handle. As a young player, he's been able to handle it. He wouldn't be on the field if he wasn't getting it in the meeting room. He's done great job.
Q: You've been around some great running backs in your career. Is there anyone you can compare Dalvin Cook to or is he kind of unique?
A: I think they're all different. The one characteristic I would say that when I look at TD (Terrell Davis) and I look at some of these backs that I've had, Arian Foster and (Clinton) Portis, they have a toughness edge to them. Dalvin's (Cook) not the biggest guy in the world, but when he runs, he runs angry, pass protects. He'll stick his face in there, do those type of things. Those guys have an edge and Dalvin has it. The thing that Dalvin's done a great job for us, he's a three down player. He's on the field protecting Kirk (Cousins), catching the football, so we're able to get him other ways to help us win than just handing it to him.
Q: What was it like to see your former team on Sunday? Did you get a chance to reconnect with some of the guys there?
A: Yeah, if you stick around long enough in this league, you're probably playing somebody you know every week. Yeah, that was different. Obviously, I'm very grateful to my career there, spent a lot of time there. So yeah, I was able to see a lot of people that I was a part of some great things with. It was good to see them.
Q: What do you think has allowed Irv Smith Jr. to have the progression he has?
A: I'll tell you, I'll go back to the draft with George (Paton) and Rick (Spielman), I give them a lot of credit here. I think they saw a young player who was going to continue to grow and develop. That's what I saw too. He's very young coming out. I think Irv's getting even bigger. I think he's going to be an even bigger player as he moves forward. I think they knew it was coming, how quick it would come and the fact that we've got Rudy (Kyle Rudolph), we've got Conk (Tyler Conklin) here, we were able to bring Irv along a little slowly and now we're asking a great deal of him. I think it was the foresight of what could happen with this kid along the way. Hopefully, his best is yet to come.
Q: What do you know about Kirk Cousins now that you didn't know at the start of the season?
A: I continue to learn more about him every day—personally, how he prepares, how he thinks going into games, how we make him confident going into games. I think it's a process, just we continue to go. I think it's been really good. I think the best thing is we have a lot of eyes on him from the standpoint of guys that have coached quarterbacks. It's been a good working relationship. You have to give Sean Mannion and Jake (Browning) a lot of credit in that room. It's a great room. They're all working towards the same goal. Those two guys really help him prepare, so they deserve some credit, too.
Q: Was Kirk Cousins holding the ball early in the season, particularly at Chicago?
A: I don't know. I think it's a combination maybe of us and what some of the things we were doing. We have can make sure with Kevin (Stefanski) and I and how we're approaching things, we try to keep him out of those situations. I think it's a combination of all of us being on the same page, staying out of that situations. Sometimes in this league, it's third down and 14. You have to hand the ball off and go punt and play defense. Yet, you get in a game like we did last week where we were having to be aggressive in some tough situations. It's just handling situational football and maybe trying to limit some of those bad situations.
Q: Did he change at all after that Chicago game?
A: Yeah, I don't know how much he changed. I just think he stayed on the grind. He and I have had some great conversations. I know early in the season, I made a comment to him after one of the disappointing games, whether it was Green Bay or Chicago, I said, "You know Kirk, we just have to keep going right back to those situations and we'll get over the hump. We'll improve those situations." I think it's his commitment to do that that, his confidence in what we're doing, his confidence in his team to help him get over the hump on some of those situations, I think, has been really important.
Q: What's been the key to him improving so much in the red zone over the course of the season?
A: I'm probably going to be repetitive, but I think it's us finding some things he does really well. I think some of our ability using Dalvin's (Cook) screen game, some of those things has really helped us be a good red zone football team. As we put a plan together and Kevin (Stefanski) puts a plan together, we sit there and we walk in with this much stuff, Kirk (Cousins) does a great job of sitting down with us and getting it narrowed to let's go do this amount of things really well. I think it's just been the relationship and preparation how we're doing things. I think that continues to grow.
Q: What role do you find yourself in making in-game adjustments and how are you influencing the game from the coaching box?
A: Kevin (Stefanski) would probably have to answer that. What I try to do is I help Kevin with situational football, what's going on. I'm listening to him call the game. I may make a suggestion, "Hey, Kevin, come back with this. You're getting played this way, so think about this." It's just a great conversation back and forth. I can't tell you how many times I may say something and Kevin will say, "Say that again." We're just constantly conversing on what's happening and a lot of eyes on what's going on on the football field. He's doing a great job pulling the trigger. He's really an excellent play caller and I think he's getting better each and every week because his feel for our players and what our team does best continues to grow.
Q: Are you surprised more people don't go with your zone blocking schemes?
A: I don't know, there's a lot of people that do it, but obviously it's not something you can do all the time. We've actually had some success doing some other things this year. Rick (Dennison) and Andrew (Janocko) have done a really good job putting our game plan together each and every week. I think our guys have been receptive to change, and the fact that we have a young center who's become a really good player I think leading the group, it's been special.
Q: Have you enjoyed coming back like this?
A: You know what, I really have. I really have. It's different, I will say that. I go home a little earlier than I used to, but I really have enjoyed myself. It's keeping me young as a coach. Coach-speak, I should say, it's keeping me young. I go on the field, I love working with young players. I'm actually running the scout team for the offense, I do that. I love working with those young guys. Going on to the defensive end, I'm making sure how we get Kirk (Cousins) prepared to play. I think all those things have really given me a lot of juice back, and I'm really enjoying what I'm doing.
Q: Is it what you expected it would be?
A: Yeah, you know it was my vision, but I think like anything else, I walked in here with a great group. It's a very experienced coaching staff, especially from the defensive standpoint. Obviously with Zim, a tremendous amount of experience. But I think they told me what they wanted me to do, they kind of explained my role to me, and it's truly been exactly that. Looking forward here to the stretch run.
Q: What has it meant to you to be able to see your scheme through and see its legacy take shape and what it's doing for Minnesota?
A: Well I think we all have a background. We come from something, so my label is with the zone and the movement and those type of things, but I think you always have to grow as coaches. I think that's why we're having some success here, because there is some growth. There's a lot of things Kevin (Stefanski) has done in the past, Rick (Dennison) has done in the past, and we have some bright young minds in there that come in there with some great ideas. I think we're expanding on what we do, but we know what our base is and where we started.
Q: Has this year given you the itch to do more at all?
A: The itch, no. It has not given me the itch. I'm doing just fine. I'm enjoying what I'm doing. I had my chance to be the head coach, I really enjoyed it, but I'm enjoying what I'm doing now.
Q: How has your relationship evolved with Mike Zimmer?
A: It's been great. I try to stay out of Zim's way. I know the job he has to do, and I know the job that I have to do for him. But we have some great conversations. When you've been a head coach before and you come off of a game, a lot of time assistant coaches don't know what the head coach is dealing with that day. I know when Zim is dealing with when other things are going on, so we have a lot of conversations. When I see him coming down the hall, I can see him from a distance because my office is in the corner up there, I know he's usually coming down to sit and just talk for a little bit. But I've really enjoyed it, very impressed with Zim and his work and the job he's doing with this team.
Q: Would you turn down any offer that came?
A: I said that's not for me anymore. I'm enjoying what I'm doing.
Q: As you guys continue to have success, do you think guys will be able to differentiate between you and Kevin Stefanski?
A: Absolutely. All you got to do is sit down with Kevin for about five minutes and you realize the type of individual you're dealing with as far as his football knowledge, the way he interacts with people, the way he handles himself. So that's a big, big job in this business as you work towards being a head coach, but obviously he's doing a great job, and like I said, he's got a bright future.
Q: With the relationship that you have with your son Klint and that Mike Zimmer has with Adam Zimmer, how special is it? Do you see it progressing to Klint or Adam being head coaches someday?
A: Well, I don't know. You don't look that far ahead. Being a coach and being in the same building with your son, I'll tell you the truth, it's special. I get a chance to see him, but I think the thing that you're most proud of is when you're watching your son become a good coach, watching him work, watching him put in time to become a good football coach. Klint is lucky from the standpoint of he's got a lot of people looking over his shoulder as he coaches that quarterback every day. I'm one of them, Kevin (Stefanski) is one of them, Rick (Dennison) is one of them, and that's what makes you a good coach. When I was raised as a young football coach, I was an offensive coordinator and running meetings, and Mike (Shanahan) is sitting there and sitting in the back of the room every day, critiquing me. "Hey, come here, you said this, you said that." That's what gives you really a good chance in your career, so we've got some guys that have got that opportunity.
Q: Do you go to the farm for the bye week?
A: I don't know what I'm going to do. I don't ever get away from football, but we're trying to self-evaluate right now and see what's going on. But we've got some big games coming up here, so a lot of work to do.

"Mothers Unite! takes us beyond the mommy wars to paint a picture of hope: the prospect of diverse mothers' groups coming together to work for a better future. Jocelyn Elise Crowley intelligently unpacks abstract ideas about flexibility and mothers' solidarity (or lack thereof) to provide a clear road map for moving forward. Her book will open endless avenues for activism on behalf of families. She has made a truly meaningful contribution."
"Kudos to Jocelyn Elise Crowley for addressing a question that few have dared ask: How can we bridge the real and illusory divides that separate employed and nonemployed women? While others focus on the putative mommy wars, Crowley shows clearly and convincingly that mothers from diverse backgrounds share common interests and possess the potential to become a powerful political force. This book is a must for anyone who cares about creating a more flexible, humane, and family-supportive workplace."
"Mothers Unite! helps us understand an issue that completely puzzles citizens from other countries: why the over 70 percent of American women who work outside the home do not mobilize politically around issues of daycare, maternity leave, and flexible work practices. Better still, it offers a blueprint for change. A very interesting read!"
"Mothers Unite! addresses a timely and important topic. The potential for mothers' mobilization takes on special urgency today. Contested images of motherhood play a prominent role in current culture wars, and mothers' vulnerability is heightened in the prevailing economic and political climate. Jocelyn Elise Crowley's research on mothers groups' stances toward workplace flexibility addresses a long-standing conundrum: why are policies that appear to offer benefits to employers and employees alike so infrequently implemented? Crowley's answer to that question is new and original."
"Analyzing five national mothers' organizations, Rutgers public policy professor Crowley (The Politics of Child Support in America) makes her case for workplace flexibility as the issue most likely to unite American mothers into a coherent, politically effective "Mother's Movement." The groups profiled include Christian-based Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS); Mothers & More, a support group for mothers moving in and out of the workplace; Mocha Moms, a support organization for mothers of color; the National Association of Mothers' Centers (NAMC), which offers childcare and activities for mothers and children; and MomsRising, an online group that discusses topics of national interest to mothers. Crowley shows that the participants in these groups are mostly looking for community and peer support, and are much less embroiled in the "Mommy Wars" than the media suggest. Both stay-at-home and working mothers see the value in having flexible career options. These groups' members are mostly middle-class, leaving out some lower-income women who might be most affected by broad policy changes, and aside from Mocha Moms, they are overwhelmingly white. Nevertheless, Crowley's data shows that these mothers are indeed interested in family-friendly workplace reform, and she optimistically posits that if the groups coordinated their efforts, they could become a force for change."

El Presidente del Partido del Trabajo de Corea, Kim Jong-un, se reunió secretamente con el Secretario General del Partido Comunista de China Xi Jinping, del 25 al 28 de marzo de 2018. Fue su primer viaje diplomático conocido fuera del país desde que tomó el poder. Kim y Xi tuvieron una segunda reunión sorpresa los días 7 y 8 de mayo de 2018 en la ciudad de Dalián. Se realizó otra reunión entre los días 19 y 20 de junio en Pekín para valorar los avances realizados durante la cumbre de Singapur.Kim Jong-un se reunió con Xi Jinping en Beijing el 7, 8, 9 y 10 de enero de 2019.  de antesala a la Cumbre de Hanói.El presidente de China, Xi Jinping, se ha convertido este en el primer dirigente extranjero en visitar Corea del Norte en catorce años. Es una visita para fortalecer la relaciones entre ambas naciones.

Primera reunión

La primera reunión China-Corea del Norte en 2018 fue organizada por invitación de Xi Jinping, secretario general del Partido Comunista de China y presidente de la República Popular China, quien hizo una invitación secreta al líder norcoreano Kim Jong-un para visitar China. El líder de Corea del Norte, Kim Jong-un, visitó Pekín utilizando su tren a prueba de balas para viajar a la reunión de tres días.

Durante la reunión entre ambos líderes, ambos de Estados socialistas de partido único, Kim Jong-un invitó oficialmente a Xi Jinping a Pionyang en el momento que le fuera conveniente, y Xi aceptó la invitación.

Durante el programa confidencial de la cumbre, Xi Jinping presentó y explicó la lista de los regalos al líder norcoreana. Kim también preparó varios regalos para su contraparte china, a quien describió sus detalles. Xi Jinping instó a fortalecer su asociación estratégica y diplomática en el futuro entre China y Corea del Norte. Kim Jong-un enfatizó que Corea del Norte y China son países socialistas de larga data y que existen muchas formas de cooperar en varios aspectos en el futuro.

La reunión fue vista como un inicio para que ambas naciones pudieran iniciar los canales diplomáticos para solucionar tanto el problema de la crisis de las armas nucleares y el problema del gobierno de Pekín con la guerra comercial iniciada por los Estados Unidos.

Segunda reunión

El líder supremo de Corea del Norte, Kim Jong-un, se reunió por segunda vez en dos meses con el líder chino Xi Jinping en la ciudad china de Dalián, Liaoning, entre el 7 y el 8 de mayo de 2018.

Ambos líderes discutieron cómo cooperar a nivel comunista en la desnuclearización y la paz en la península de Corea, además de abordar el tema de las relaciones entre China y la RPDC y otros asuntos importantes de interés común, según lo informado por la agencia Xinhua. En la ocasión Xi Jinping reafirmó su intención de realizar una visita de estado a Pionyang a fines de 2018.

El presidente estadounidense Donald Trump enfatizó que China debe cooperar con la continua implementación de sanciones económicas a Corea del Norte, hasta que desmantele permanentemente la energía nuclear. y sus programas de misiles ICBM.

Tercera reunión
El 19 y 20 de junio está planificada la tercera reunión entre los líderes chino y norcoreano, esta vez en Pekín, donde Kim informará a Xi Jinping sobre los resultados de sus conversaciones con el presidente de Estados Unidos Donald Trump en la cumbre de Singapur, realizada el 12 de junio.

Cuarta reunión
Kim Jong-un se reunió con Xi Jinping en Beijing el 7, 8, 9 y 10 de enero de 2019. El fin de  China y Corea del Norte es de tratar de fortalecer su relación bilateral. El viaje comenzó en el 35 cumpleaños de Kim. Muchos sospechan que Kim Jong-un estaba informando a Xi Jinping sobre la próxima Cumbre de Hanói entre Corea del Norte y Estados Unidos  solicitando asesoramiento. Kim viajó a Vietnam en tren previamente pasando por China.

Quinta Reunión
El presidente de China, Xi Jinping, se ha convertido este en el primer dirigente extranjero en visitar Corea del Norte en catorce años. Esta reunión se ha hecho para fortalecer la relaciones bilaterales de ambos países asiáticos

Finite-size effects and switching times for Moran process with mutation
Lee DeVille, Meghan Galiardi
We consider the Moran process with two populations competing under an iterated Prisoner's Dilemma in the presence of mutation, and concentrate on the case where there are multiple evolutionarily stable strategies. We perform a complete bifurcation analysis of the deterministic system which arises in the infinite population size. We also study the Master equation and obtain asymptotics for the invariant distribution and metastable switching times for the stochastic process in the case of large but finite population. We also show that the stochastic system has asymmetries in the form of a skew for parameter values where the deterministic limit is symmetric.

Stockton, CA Becomes Most Populous U.S. City To File For Bankruptcy, Setting Up Pension Fight
July 12, 2018 in News by RBN Staff
Source: Hot Air | MARY KATHARINE HAM
So, here's the deal. Stockton, CA ain't got no money, and has filed for bankruptcy, like San Bernardino before it. Stockton has 300,000 residents and was recently named one of America's most dangerous cities because it turns out that being mismanaged into blowing all its money and more on promises it can't keep isn't all that great for the one thing the city's supposed to be doing—protecting its citizens.
SEE ALSO: Did Trump just sink Theresa May and Brexit — or inadvertently help them out?
As with all the rest of California, Stockton is in debt to the California retirement system fund (CalPERS), and has been for some time.
Socialist winner in NY-14: Why is the establishment Democrat I beat in the primary still running against me in the general election?
Stockton owes CalPERS as much as $900 million to cover its pension obligation, which is the city's single-biggest liability. Stockton officials argued before Klein that, due to protections for pensions in the state constitution, it has to pay CalPERS the full amount.
That's been the typical reasoning in such cases. Promised pension benefits are protected under both state and federal law.
During pre-bankruptcy mediation, Stockton's creditors understandably bristled at the notion that they might get back 17 cents on the dollar while CalPERS got everything it was owed. Those creditors, after all, put up $165 million for Stockton to pay to CalPERS several years ago.
"Naturally, the bondholders and others who will be taking a big haircut in the debt adjustment process are saying that's not fair — there's a big class of creditors who are being given a free pass here," says Flanders, a former associate justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court.
"The issue is a very important one, not just in Stockton and not just in California, but across the country," he says.
And, here's where we run into an issue that will reverberate around the country. What wins out? Federal bankruptcy law, which ostensibly allows for the tearing up of contracts (even pension promises) or state and local laws, which protect pension promises? Get ready to hear a bunch of liberals read the 10th Amendment for the first time ever. It's pensions that are sinking states and cities. A bunch of politicians took public employee union dues, funded their campaigns by promising new and better things to public employee unions, won those campaigns, and knew damn well there was no way to actually deliver on ever more extravagant promises, but went ahead and did it because it'd likely be someone else's problem some day. ABC reports:
Attorneys for creditors argued that it was unfair for their clients to accept reduced payments while the pensions negotiated in flush times went untouched. They argued that employees who shared the wealth during good times should bow have to endure some of the pain with cuts to their pensions.
Legal observers expect the creditors to aggressively challenge the repayment plan presented by Stockton in the next phase of the process.
"That's where it will be precedent-setting," said Karol Denniston, a municipal restructuring expert who monitored the trial. "Does bankruptcy code apply to CalPERS or not? If bankruptcy code trumps state law, then that's huge and it has huge implications in terms of what happens next for other municipalities across California."
The state pension plan manages $255 billion in assets but was underfunded by $87 billion in 2011, the last time calculations were made.
I don't pretend to understand what the correct answer is for Stockton and for the rest of the country. I sympathize with those promised certain benefits who may lose them, even if they are above and beyond what most of us will see. But elected officials have to learn they can't always make promises they know they can't keep with other people's money and get away with it. If creditors come out on the short end, and are in danger of losing big in such settlements around the nation, maybe word will finally go out that cities with giant unfunded pensions and politicians willing to promise the sun and the moon are not good investments. If elected officials are substance abusers, creditors are often enabling them.
At any rate, get strapped in for a long recovery. The Stockton case will give us an idea of which method of therapy we're in for. California comeback, baby!

Stubenring 1, 1010 Vienna
E-mail: post@sozialministerium.at
Mr. Florian Reininger, Stubenring 1 , 1010 Vienna, florian.reininger@sozialministerium.at has been appointed as the data protection officer.
We process data which you have given us or which we have received from third parties on a legal basis (EU law or a national provision), or when we have legally obtained your consent to do so. Personal data is all information which relates to a specific person. For special categories of personal data (so-called sensitive data), there is an increased level of protection.
The legal basis for the processing and storage of your data
The legal basis for the storage of your data can be found in Art. 6 para. 1 of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), depending on whether:
you have consented to the processing your data (Art. 6 para. 1(a) GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2(a) GDPR; for example when subscribing to the newsletter);
the processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract or of pre-contract obligations (Art. 6 para.1(b) GDPR, for example when concluding a service contract);
when the processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation (Art. 6 para.1(c) GDPR);
or when the processing is necessary in order to carry out a task which is in the public interest or forms part of the exercise of official authority which has been entrusted to us (Art. 6 para.1(e) GDPR).
You can revoke your consent at any time.
Special categories of personal data (so-called sensitive data) and data about convictions under criminal law are only processed in accordance with the provisions laid down in Art. 9f of the GDPR.
In accordance with Art. 6 paras. 3 and 4 of the GDPR, the relevant national laws can contain more specific provisions with regard to processing, which then takes place according to Art. 6 para. 1(c and e), in order to make the requirements for processing or other measures more precise in order to guarantee processing which is lawful and in good faith.
Your data is only stored for as long as is necessary in order to fulfil the purpose for which it is required. Subsequently it is deleted, or at least the reference to you is eliminated (anonymisation), unless any legal retention, documentation or limitation periods need to be observed.
It may be legally or contractually specified that you have to provide your details (for example, certain data such as names and addresses are usually required to fulfil a contract).
Who receives your data (recipient)?
Within the ministry, those departments and/or staff receive your data who need it to fulfil contractual, legal or other obligations. Furthermore, your data is sent to processors whom we have commissioned and who are obliged to maintain confidentiality, and only pass this data on to others within the scope of the contractually defined service.

Consent which you have already granted can be revoked at any time.
Individual rights can be limited in accordance with Art. 23 of the GDPR. The assertion of these rights by those affected is partially opposed by legal provisions, such as retention, documentation or limitation periods (there is not always a right to the deletion of data, namely when statutory retention periods have priority over the right to deletion).
According to Section 24 of the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG) you have the right to complain to the Austrian data protection authority (dsb@dsb.gv.at; Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Vienna), if you are of the opinion that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR or Section 1 or Sections 7-13 of the DSG.
Guaranteeing a high degree of data security is one of our declared objectives, which we achieve by implementing technical and organisational measures.
Confidentiality is the main benchmark in order to ensure the long-term integrity, availability and stress-resistance of the systems and services related to the processing of data.
Encryption systems, access checks and other measures in the field of IT infrastructure help us to achieve a high level of protection.

Since the first decades of the 19th century, many British citizens have bought properties or built houses in France. Approximately 150,000 UK citizens currently live in France, second only to Spain. With Brexit on the horizon, many are uneasy, for the draw of life in France remains strong, and its roots are deep.
The villa Bric-à-Brac of the English family Faber, in Dinard, now aquarium, then today luxury hotel.
Initially, those who acquired estates in France belonged to the privileged classes. They were seeking a milder climate as well as a lower cost of living. Starting in the 1800s, prominent British citizens began buying or building luxurious residences in the Channel ports of Boulogne and Calais. In Dieppe, on the Emerald Coast, the Villa Bric à Brac, was built in 1856 by the members of the Faber family. (It has recently been transformed into a luxurious hotel). Close by, another superb English villa is Solidor, owned by Williers Forbes, who in 1879 launched the first tennis club in France. In 2005 it was purchased by French billionaire François Pinault and renovated. Many distinguished guests, including French president Jacques Chirac, have been hosted there.
In the south of France, other British visitors started exploring what was to become the Côte d'Azur. In 1834, Lord Brougham discovered a small village named Cannes.
Enchanted by the place, the politician and staunch abolitionist built a beautiful villa, which he named Eleonore-Louise, after his daughter. He stayed there every winter until his death in 1868, and his statue stands in the nearby Allées de la Liberté.
During the inter-war period, British and Irish artists and intellectuals were attracted to France. Playwright George Bernard Shaw came every year to stay in the mythical Eden Roc Hotel in Cap d'Antibes; H.G. Wells, the father of modern science fiction, preferred the town of Grasse. In 1927, Wells had the Lou Pidou built, a house in which he lived with his companion Odette Keun, a Dutch journalist.
Nancy Cunard, the "scandalous" writer and rich heiress of the eponymous transatlantic shipping company, bought a farm house in Normandy, at the La Chapelle Réanville. She restored the house, known as Le Puits carré ("the square well"), with writer and poet Louis Aragon. There she launched the Hours Press, her publishing house, and there produced twenty or so books, including texts by Samuel Beckett. Badly damaged during World War II, the house is now completely abandoned. But the memory of the couple remains; Aragon's name was given to a nearby secondary school.
With the war's end, former residents such as Graham Green (Travels with my Aunt, 1969) and Somerset Maugham (The Razor's Edge, 1944) began to return. They and other "old timers" were soon outnumbered by new arrivals. In the mid-1980s, the writer William Boyd (A Good man in Africa, 1981) bought an estate in Sadillac, near Bergerac in the Dordogne, where he produces his own wine. During the same time, in Provence, Peter Mayle lived and wrote his ode to the French lifestyle, A Year in Provence (1989). By the end of the 1990s, more and more Britons were crossing the Channel with the intention of settling somewhere deep in the French countryside, be it in Normandy, the interior of Brittany, or in Limousin, where rural houses are inexpensive by UK standards.
Unable to buy the cottage of their dreams in the UK, retirees and others from the less monied classes are now contributing to the revitalisation of rural France. Whether they are optimistic or pessimistic, whether or not their pensions are paid in sterling, most of those who live in France or who wish to do so have been considering Brexit with some apprehension. Has this prospect discouraged those who planned to purchase a property in France?
The majority of British (65%) who were intending to buy a house in France prior to Brexit do not seem to have changed their minds. According to the 9th edition of the Investing & Living Abroad report from BNP Paribas, 23% of the potential buyers are considering accelerating their efforts – the fear is that their plans could be hindered when the divorce between the UK and the EU is formalised.
UK citizens remain the first buyers of real estate in France, while in Paris itself, Americans and Italians come first. Indeed, there the resources needed by would-be property owners are necessarily greater than those available to the average Briton who hopes to settle in some remote farmhouse.
Thus in two centuries, the profile of the British in France has completely changed. In the beginning of the 19th century it was the lovers of French culture and the admirers of the Revolution of 1789, enlightened amateurs, hedonists, and cosmopolitans. They were gradually joined and progressively replaced by the first "tourists" travelling in groups, chaperoned by Thomas Cook and Co, and later by writers and artists who came to seek inspiration in the Latin Quarter or around Montparnasse.
While these earlier residents would sometimes buy an apartment, their enthusiasm for owning property in France was nothing compared to that of the British citizens, who at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st are now helping revitalise rural France. And so even as it changes form, the longstanding passion of the British for real estate in France endures.


Barrientos Design was contracted to design a pedestrian bridge over Watertown Plank Road to connect the future parking garage at the Ronald McDonald House (RMH) and the Children's Hospital parking garage. This key connection will allow visitor sot the RMH to safely pass over the road and directly access the skywalk to the hospital. Although the passage will not be fully enclosed, it will be covered overhead to screen and protect users from winter weather. The bridge will also connect the sidewalks along Watertown Plank Road to allow for a gentle sloping ramp over the street.
Two options for the bridge were developed during the design process. This option utilizes semi-custom truss members that span across the street. A key feature of the design are two flanking stair towers that are clad in an illuminated channel glass system which creates a lantern-like effect when viewed from a distance.

Eight brilliant young actors and actresses recreate a moving renaissance theatre in the atmosphere of the roaring and golden 20s. Hermia loves Lysander and Helena loves Demetrius but Hermia is being forced into marriage with Demetrius.
The two lovers flee to the forest and take part in a fantastical adventure among fairies and crazed amateur actors and Puck, who mixes everything up with his love potion.
Lots of music and plenty of slapstick in Shakespeare's most famous comedy.

This is an essential ingredient in DIY bath bombs and bath truffles. The reaction between citric acid and baking soda creates the delightful fizz.
Citric acid can also be used to reduce the pH of your cold process soap, learn how in the Sudsy Shampoo Bars tutorial.
Usage Instructions: For bath bombs, use at a rate of 2 to 1 baking soda to citric acid.


While the Bihar BJP was rejoicing over Narendra Modi's successful 'chai pe charcha' (discussion over tea) last week, the CPM general secretary Prakash Karat felt that the event was no storm in a teacup. The Left leader opined that it was purely a marketing gimmick to con people.
And so was Modi's meeting with US Ambassador to India Nancy Powell. "The meeting which Modi held with Powell was a pre-poll tea party. Now he will hold a post-poll tea-party with Ambanis and Adanis," Karat said.
Karat was addressing a Vikalp rally (option meet) in the State Capital where he predicted that Third Front will become a real force once the polls are over. "The leaders of 11 non-Congress and non-BJP parties are meeting in Delhi on February 22 to give the formation a formal shape. This front will prove pollsters, who are creating a Modi wave, wrong," said Karat, who is toying with the idea of tying up with the ruling JD (U) in Bihar.
Earlier, it used to be the Congress wherein some names were too sacred to be forgotten for even a moment.
Now, other parties are showing the same syndrome. Lalu, Mulayam, Jayalalitha, Mamata, and Mayawati - all of them have attained the status of semi-gods among their party workers and sympathisers as has been the case with Sonia Gandhi. Now the disease has spread to BJP MPs as well. They have been mentioning names of Atal Bihari Vajpayee and LK Advani but in a spontaneous manner. They seem to be feeling the same pressure as their counterparts do.
The proportion that this newly acquired infection of BJP has acquired could be seen in the just concluded session of Parliament when Venkaih Naidu had to add the name of Narendra Modi in a great hurry. Naidu dropped his name during the debate on Telangana Bill in Rajya Sabha just to inform that Modi has said "Jai Telangana" and "Jai Seemndhra" at a meeting in Hyderabad. Shahnawaj Hussain did the same in Lok Sabha.
As the Lok Sabha took up the Telangana Bill for consideration, parliament security had a tough time in hand. Some members, who were suspended from the Lok Sabha by Speaker Meira Kumar after the pepper spray incident, were seen in Parliament as well.
Two policemen in plainclothes and one watch and ward staff each were tasked with the onerous responsibility of ensuring that the suspended members do not enter the Lok Sabha chamber.
At least two members were stopped in the entrance lobby of the Lok Sabha by the six security personnel tailing them. "These members from Andhra Pradesh are well built that it is difficult for one security person to tackle them," quipped a member of the security. The Speaker had suspended 13 members from Seemandhra and three from Telangana for creating unruly scenes in the Lok Sabha on February 13. While L Rajagopal, who used pepper spray in the House resigned from his membership soon after, several other members who had been suspended were seen in the Lower House on Friday.Sagar Kulkarni, New Delhi.
When the ship seems to be sinking, rats and people both start deserting the vessel even if it is cruising and trying to reach the banks. Shiv Sena, the party which once had people queuing up at its door is now grappling with the problem of exodus.
In a matter of one month, three key MPs from hinterlands have defected to the Congress and the NCP. The party which hardly has a base outside Mumbai precincts, the defection has come as a bolt from the blue.
On Saturday, Parbhani MP Ganesh Dudhgaonkar even though not being assured of a ticket met NCP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and formally joined the party. Last week another influential political leader and MP from Shirdi Bhausaheb Wakchaure sneaked off to meet Congress leaders.
Shiv Sena leadership sheepish over the flock leaving its fold admits in private that more desertions are likely to take place in the coming days.

Q: What have to be done to transform a program into a robust OpenMP-aware version? The program in question operates on a single input data file and single output data file: it takes a data unit from input, computes several statistical characteristics of the data, puts the characteristics into output.
It was discovered that the program is CPU-bound: CPU usage is 99% al the time, computations take more time than reading and writing. It was decided to convert the program into parallell-processing version by using OpenMP, since the hardware has 32 CPUs available. However, it is clear that it could lead to writing race conditions, since multiple parallell threads may wish to write into single output.
What are necessary steps to prepare such kind of programs to be OpenMP-aware and OpenMp-safe? Could it be easily achived only by OpenMP pragmas without code changes or there must be some locking mechanisms implemented before?

A: The difficulty to parallelise your code really depends on the complexity of the routine(s) that use up most time.
The first thing you should do before you to any parallel computing is to profile your code and to identify which function exactly causes most of the CPU time.
Once you have that you need to ask yourself the questions:

*

*Does it have data dependencies?

*If yes, can I get rid of them by making copies of certain affordable data structures?

*If not are they read/write or read only?

*If they are read/write, how often are they accessed - choose the right locking mechanism depending on that.

*Do I have read/write global variables? If yes - can they be made thread-local? If not - get rid of them.

*Once you have all that sorted decide what the best way is to split your input onto threads (see OpenMP scheduling for details)

*Start writing pragmas, rearranging code, making functions thread-safe/reentrant.

*Last bust not least: Debug, Debug, Debug. Try to design small examples of input/output that are reproducible in a multithreaded application.

To answer your last question: stdio library calls are all thread safe. They use internal locking.
One hint for your first #pragma omp parallel: by default all variables are shared, define them as unavailable and specify sharing/private for each variable individually. This is otherwise a common pitfall for bugs:
#pragma omp parallel default(none)

If for some reason you are not the biological father of your wife's child, you can rebut the presumption of paternity by filing a Denial of Paternity form. Both you and your wife must sign the form in order for it to be valid. However, you may still be legally obligated to support the child if the court cannot determine who the biological father is. The easiest way to establish paternity would be for the biological father to sign a VAP form. If he will not, the mother will need to file a paternity suit to prove that he is the father and require him to pay child support.
Determining the biological father of your presumed child is important for everyone involved. You should not be obligated to financially support the child if you can prove who the biological father is. The mother and child should know who the biological father is to hold him responsible for the child and understand the child's family medical history. A Kane County family law attorney at Goostree Law Group can help you prove or deny paternity of a child. To schedule a free consultation, call 630-584-4800.

The Virginia Bar Association Signs Agreement for March 2019 launch of Identillect's Delivery Trust(R)
Published: Mar 14, 2019 11:16 a.m. ET
The Virginia Bar Association is partnering with Identillect Technologies as the official email security provider for its members
IRVINE, Mar 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Identillect Technologies Corp. (the "Company" or "Identillect") (ID), a trusted leading provider of compliant email security, announces The Virginia Bar Association (the VBA) has selected Delivery Trustas the preferred solution for bar members to meet and exceed the regulatory requirements to protect sensitive communications. Identillect recently has partnered with numerous bars and legal associations to provide the legal community with the simplest and most secure way to communicate with clients and associates.
The Virginia Bar Association has more than 4,700 members and is the first and largest statewide voluntary bar group in Virginia. The VBA provides valuable professional and supported services for its members and takes pride in providing security education and digital communication tools that bar members have direct access to use.
R. Yvonne Cockram, executive director of the VBA, commented, "The Virginia Bar Association is committed to advancing cybersecurity protection for our bar members and is eager about the Identillect partnership. This partnership provides a strong security platform for our members along with advanced education to better understand and protect against cyber-threats and regulatory compliance. We believe Delivery Trust will provide significant benefit."
Identillect CEO Todd Sexton states, "Identillect serves bar associations across the United States and is a trusted name in secure legal communication. We are committed to the security and integrity of secure attorney communication. Identillect looks forward to serving The Virginia Bar Association members' cybersecurity needs."
In a recent American Bar Association article, David Ries, a well-known lawyer and author on cybersecurity topics, stated, "Confidential data in computers and information systems, including those used by attorneys and law firms, faces greater security threats today than ever before--and they continue to grow! Security breaches are becoming so prevalent that there is a new mantra in cybersecurity today: 'It's when, not if' a law firm or other entity will suffer a breach." An ABA Tech Report 2017 article highlighted that lawyers are being specifically targeted.
Cybersecurity threats are increasing, with 43% of cyberattacks aimed at small businesses because of a lack of security infrastructure. The damages that cybercrimes create for businesses have no end in sight. It is estimated that businesses will incur more than $6 trillion annually by 2021. The best way a business can combat being another statistic is through employee education and security protocols.

How does one judge what is a beautiful medieval manuscript? In our case we turn to an expert: Giovanni Scorcioni, co-founder of Facsimile Finder, the leading provider of facsimile editions of medieval manuscripts and books.
Based out of Italy, Giovanni has spent almost a decade looking through hundreds of medieval works in facsimile, and here is the list of his favourite manuscripts chosen from the most beautiful that were made in the Middle Ages.
The lavish miniatures and painted initials form such an expressive and lively colored decoration that one can imagine them moving to the rhythm of music: a fantastic picture gallery from the heyday of English book illumination.
Our thanks to Giovanni for sharing his list of the most beautiful medieval manuscripts made in facsimile with us.
It's worth mentioning that Giovanni has just disclosed to us that FacsimileFinder.com has recently undergone a complete renovation and the new website will be published next week, just in time for the Frankfurt Book Fair!
We were able to get a little scoop and show you the revamped logo in advance: the little owl is named Athena, cute, isn't she?
You can subscribe to his "Bookplate" newsletter, where he talks more about these books and offers fascinating insights into the Middle Ages.
Stay updated on beautiful manuscripts, insight on the history of illumination, and captivating photo galleries of majestic work of art! It's free!

Q: What is the good strategy to maintain Maven transitive dependency satisfied I recently encountered a difficulty to find back a transitively dependent Maven artifact when building our product, which triggered me to think what is the correct strategy to deal with the situation.
In my product building CI, I need to use a plugin called Maven-Unix-Plugin, which is visible to us. This plugin transitively depends on function-java, which is not visible to us.
We have a Nexus repo, which proxy to the Maven repo. So, in the ideal situation, we don't need to store either maven-unix-plugin or functional-java.
However, I found the expected version of maven-unix-plugin still exists in Maven repository, but its dependent version of functional-java disappeared! More ironically, for all versions of maven-unix-plugin, whose dependent version of functional-java disappeared! In short, the maven-unix-plugin is not usable anymore!
In simple, this sounds an integrity problem of Maven repository. However, my major thinking is how we can avoid this on our side? Now, I managed to find back the old versioned functional-java and put it in our Nexus. However, first of first, it is impossible for us to figure out all of the transitive dependents and put all of them in our Nexus. The ideal picture of Maven is we should NOT be required to do that!
Of course, if we continuously build and maintain our system (and keep updating the dependency version ideally), we should have not faced this problem. However, we are a very small team to maintain a long list of huge legacy systems. The last build for this product is actually 2 years ago!
Any brilliant insights what is good strategies for this kind of headaches to happen in the future?

A: First of all, MavenCentral very rarely removes artifacts, and only if absolutely necessary. So this problem is likely not to hit you again.
If you want to make sure that this problem will not come again, make sure that you backup the storage of your Nexus repo. All artifacts that are drawn from MavenCentral through your Nexus will be stored in your Nexus storage. So even if MavenCentral is completely wiped out tomorrow, they will still exist in your Nexus.

Q: Cloud VPN's removal of restriction on peer's IKE identity I am using a VPN tunnel with IKE version ikev2. I received an email from GCP team regarding "Cloud VPN's removal of restriction on peer's IKE identity may require you to take action"
In the What do I need to do? section it recommends to use ikev1.

*

*Please review the following options to see which one applies to your
specific case: If you are using Yamaha RTX800-series or Yamaha
RTX1200-series routers, please upgrade to the latest firmware from
Yamaha or recreate your tunnels using IKEv1 before June 15, 2022.

Should I have to change the ike version from v2 to v1 .? Can someone guide me through this?

A: Instructions in this email are applicable only if your tunnels have been unestablished due to the peer identity restriction:

Once we apply this change, some tunnels which previously failed to be
established, might become established. Successfully established tunnels
will be unaffected by this change.

If you tunnels are established, this change will have no impact.
There is no need to downgrade the IKE version since both v1 and v2 are supported - documentation.

Paulo Dybala to leave Juventus on a free transfer… Where is Dybala's potential destination
Victor Ernest / March 22, 2022 / Hot Football/Soccer News, News, Transfer News
Argentine football star Paulo Dybala will not renew his contract with Juventus after talks between him and the Italian club failed recently. This means that the 28-year-old Argentine forward is free to join another club on a free transfer this summer.
Before the 2021 summer, reports about talks between Paulo Dybala and Juventus have been going on but the two parties were unable to agree on personal terms.
After the January 2022 transfer window, Juventus continued to push for a new deal with Dybala who is one of the captains at the club. Despite Dybala's purported interest in signing a new deal with the Italian giants, negotiations between him and the club failed again.
Unfortunately for the 28-year-old Argentine forward, his contract with Juventus will expire on June 30, 2022, which means that he has just three months left to become a free agent.
Reports claimed that Dybala's representatives spent over two hours negotiating with Juventus on Monday, March 21, 2022. Yet, nothing good came out of the meeting.
Juventus director Arrivabene confirms: "We won't extend Paulo Dybala's contract. We're not gonna do any other proposal – the decision has been made". 🇦🇷 #Dybala
Dybala's agent will now open talk with other clubs. He's free to join any club as his contract runs out in June.
— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) March 21, 2022
Why did Paulo Dybala's talks with Juventus failed?
Before now, reports claimed that Paulo Dybala earns £222,000 per week, £11,544,000 per year at the Italian Serie A club.

But a report by Tuttosport published on Monday claimed that Juventus attempted to offer Dybala a lower salary. The report also claimed that in 2021, Dybala and Juventus have agreed on a pre-contract which suppose to earn him €11m-a-year, including add-ons. But Juve are not ready to pay that much again.
According to the same report, Juventus were willing to pay Dybala as low as €6-7m-a-year which is said to be too low for the forward who is more or less the club's talisman.
Hence, Dybala who is currently dating Oriana Sabatini is set to leave the club this summer as a free agent.

What is Paulo Dybala's stats at Juventus?
Since Paulo Dybala joined Juventus from Palermo on July 1, 2015, for a transfer fee worth €41 million, he has played 283 games in which he scored 113 goals and provided 48 assists in all competitions.
So far this season, the Argentina international has scored 13 goals and provided 6 assists in 29 games in all competitions.

Dybala has helped Juventus to win five Italian Serie A titles, three Italian Cups, and three Italian Super Cups.
Where next for Paulo Dybala?
Over the years, Paulo Dybala has always been a lover of the Premier League. He reportedly dreams of playing in the English league. Hence, this could be his opportunity to do.
Last summer, Manchester United reportedly tried to sign him from Juventus but the deal failed. Hence, United could be a great option for him especially now that his former teammate at Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo is at the Premier League side.
Tottenham also tried to sign him in 2019 but the deal failed and there are reports that the London side are still interested in signing him. Also, Chelsea are reportedly interested in the Argentine forward but that might not work if the club does not have a new owner before the coming summer transfer window.
At the same time, Dybala reportedly wishes to play for the reigning Premier League champions, Manchester City. Hence, it is now left to see which of the Premier League club will cash in first.
