In this session, we are talking about the way forward in India-Pakistan relations. As far as the left in India is concerned, we think that the future course of direction in our whole South Asia region, the future of peace, of progress, of development for our entire South Asia region, to really go forward, go forward politically in a democratic fashion, economically to go towards a path of development which will lift up the millions and millions of people who are in poverty in this region and also for the overall peace and stability for in Asia. Today as we look around the world, we find that there is a growing trend for regional cooperation and regional groups and blocks to be formed. New alignments are taking shape. We have seen how in Latin America there is great progress being made among the Latin American countries for economic and regional cooperation. Only recently all the Latin American and Caribbean countries got together to form a community of the Latin American and Caribbean countries. We have seen how great progress has been made by ASEAN earlier. We saw just in the last two days in Delhi the BRICS summit where the potential of this alignment of block of countries has been shown. But really we have not seen any real progress in South Asia. And the heart of the problem lies in the relations between India and Pakistan. Now, I think the way forward from what I can gather from what discussions you have had, I see it as threefold in three areas. The first is the political that is the state to state relations India and Pakistan. The dialogue which has been there, the composite dialogue which has had its ups and downs. We on the left in India have consistently maintained that this dialogue should continue, this dialogue should be broadened and deepened. And irrespective of the government in power here in Delhi, we have maintained that there should be no let up, there should be no stalling of the dialogue. In this connection, the areas of discussions that you have had, all those areas are part of this dialogue. Shahid Siddiqui mentioned about the promise or the potential that was there in the first early years of the UPA government. At that time, yes he is right, we had expected, we had thought that the UPA government would be able to take some substantive steps to resolve some of the outstanding issues and notwithstanding our various problems and difficulties with the UPA government. We had consistently been supporting and asking the prime minister at that time to really sincerely try and address these problems and try to resolve some of them. It is unfortunate that even the most, I think in one sense the most ridiculous issue or the confrontation that we have between the two countries on the sea action glacier and the huge amounts of money and resources that we spend and in which a large number of our soldiers die of frostbite not from any other enemy attack or fire. Even that problem which could have been solved according to me in 2004 to 2007 that could not be resolved. But as far as Jammu and Kashmir is concerned, the Kashmir issue is concerned, I am not going into that now because there is not much time for that. We have been telling the government that here is a problem which needs to be discussed with Pakistan, it needs to be discussed with the people of Kashmir, the dialogue with the people of Kashmir all shades of political opinion within Kashmir and simultaneously talking to Pakistan. At the same time, this should not hold the overall progress in relations up, it cannot be hostage, the overall process of advancing our relations. You can keep talking about Kashmir, it should be part of our dialogue with Pakistan. Just as in the case with China, we have this joint working group on the border dispute which has been meeting every year, every six months and at times some efforts are made to try to see if they can take this forward, we have had special efforts made for that. But both countries know that this will not be resolved very soon. And therefore, we have decided, we had decided not now two decades earlier that let us start improving our relations in other spheres and you see the results of that today. The China is the biggest trading partner of India. In this last year, we have had 63 billion dollars of trade with China and I think the rate at which it is going soon be 100 billion dollars in the next three or four years. And therefore, the second area while we carry on the political dialogue and we continue with our efforts at the governmental level to discuss this whole gamut of issues which you have discussed, what is there, what is the serious problem not only with Pakistan, we will have to discuss this with Bangladesh, we have to discuss it with Nepal, we have to discuss with China also about the Brahmaputra waters. This is going to be a much wider problem for all the countries of this region. So, we have to discuss these matters, but the real progress can be made I think in the area of trade and economic relations which will be of enormous benefit to our two countries and the peoples of our two countries. And that is why as the previous speaker mentioned, the favored nation status which has now been agreed upon by both countries should really be the point of take off for us to now develop all round trade and economic ties which will definitely help to create the atmosphere for the setting of relations on a very sound footing. While speaking about this, the political aspect of course is crucial and here I am not talking only about the state to state relations and the formal official dialogue that is taking place or should take place. But we have to recognize that we have to fight various battles in our respective countries. I do not underestimate the political challenges and the difficulties regarding the breakthrough that we have to achieve in our mutual relations. In India it is very much related to directly linked to how far we succeed in the secular and democratic forces in our country, succeed in isolating and weakening the communal and sectarian forces in our country. Those who think that there is no real political obstacle or challenge to improving Indo-Pakistan relations I think are under playing the issue. We have seen from our past experience how the Pakistan threat and the bogey of Pakistan is constantly used in India to heighten communal tensions and communal politics which has its own detrimental effect on our democratic and secular system. And therefore, we in India have to carry on this two front struggle. One is to get the Indian government of the day to carry on with its efforts. Whatever the difficulties to seriously address our mutual problems and issues and to improve relations. And at the same time we have to create the conditions, the atmosphere whereby the political establishment in our country will feel, will get encouraged or will feel emboldened to go towards a path of dialogue and reconciliation. Here our experience has been also and I hope that will be of some value to our Pakistani friends also. That is after the Pokhran blasts here and India declaring itself to be a nuclear weapon state. We had warned that this is a path which will lead, of course you will also make the, go on the same path Pakistan and then you will have a situation in this region where the United States of America will be the arbiter between our two countries, between the relations between our two countries. And what is unfolded after 1998 and after 2001 is that you have this, in both our countries the governments and the political establishment has sought to use the United States as a mediator arbiter in our relations. We in our quest to get legitimacy as a nuclear state, we have entered into talks, we entered into agreements, I do not want to go into that whole history and that is one of the major factors and reasons why we came out totally against the path adopted by the then Indian government which led to a break with the UPA government at that time. But in Pakistan too today, you are already facing that problem about your relationship with the United States of America which is a far deeper and complex relationship that then we have with the United States of America. But some of our rulers thought that is a path we should also take enter finally into a subordinate alliance with the United States of America and you are I think in the process of trying to review and come out of this, get out of this sort of subordinate relationship. I think is very important for the future of Pakistani, the Pakistan's democratic system, this and facing the challenge of extremism and terrorism. But in that I think the third area which I am going to talk about is here, yes everybody knows that we would like this dimension of people to people relations between our two countries to develop, to expand, to grow. But there I think political forces, I am talking about parties, political forces on both sides, there is a need for us to engage more with each other, interact with each other. And I think that is an area where of course we have some exchanges of our parliamentarians and various other forums are there. But I think that in India I think there has been a failure on the part of the weakness, on the part of the left and democratic forces that we have not done sufficient to link up, to relate to the political parties and forces in Pakistan. I was telling one of my party meetings the other day we are preparing for our All India Party Congress that we have better relations with various left progressive democratic forces in Latin America, in Europe, in other parts of Asia and much less within our own region. So this is one of the things which are very important that along with this development of people to people relations what you are talking about civil society I suppose you exclude us because we are political parties, I do not agree with the definition of civil society which is generally pervade. But I think that there should be political forces in India and Pakistan who should get together. We may have different views and different opinions about various things but we should get together and not leave it to the governments of the day to try to tackle and resolve these issues. I hope that the two days discussions that you have had here in Delhi would help in the process of us getting together in the future to see the way forward. Thank you.


My congressional district includes cities and communities that have been economically depressed. A few years ago, as a part of its economic revitalization plan, the city of Stockton, California, set out to build an open access fiber network. The project was put on hold because financing wasn't available. But I'd like to discuss the benefits of a project like this would have for communities like Stockton. Mr. Lewis, how do open access fiber networks impact competition in the marketplace? Open access networks, congressmen, can bring in competition by lowering the barriers to building the core infrastructure of the network, which is the most expensive part of building out a broadband network by getting the partnership of the local government or we're using subsidies to do it. Then when those networks are open, any provider can use that infrastructure to offer service to the folks at the network bridges. This allows multiple providers to compete on price and hopefully see lower prices. Thank you. What is the impact of open access fiber networks on the broadband service for consumers? Well, my hope is that it would start with lower prices, but it can also hopefully lead to competition in other areas of the service. So in responsiveness and customer service, once a provider doesn't have a monopoly on a territory, they really have to compete for the attention and the loyalty of the consumers. Thank you.


What's up everyone welcome into the week 13 waiver wire Q&A brought to you by FanDuel. I'm Simon Grunewald here as always with JJ Zacharias in here to answer your questions. What's up JJ? Not much man not much pretty crazy week 12 excited for week 13. We I mean we're like basically at the playoffs at this point so so high leverage weeks upcoming. These are the big money weeks when it comes to waiver wire the moves you make this week and next week can win or lose you a championship as we start prepping right here. And it's a it's an interesting week on the waiver wire as well. We were running through some of the names earlier this morning JJ and there's just a lot of names in a group right there. You've got the Zay Jones the Paris Campbell's that are still sitting out there and then the guys that blew up and you've got the injury concerns with the running backs the Jalen Warren's the Benny Snell's the Zonovan Knights. There's a lot of interesting names out there so I'm sure we got some questions coming in here everybody watching thank you so much for tuning in. We are here to do nothing but answer your waiver wire questions for the next 30 minutes. So if you got them throw them in the chat and we will get to those for those of you who have not joined us before make sure you head on over to JJ's Twitter at late round QB and give him a follow truly one of the best in the space and you can find everything he's producing over there is late round podcast and everything else. We got a question in here from Victor to kick us off JJ you ready for that. Let's do it. Victor says hey JJ RIP Greg Dulcich. Yeah that that was fun while lasted. He said my question is Zonovan Knight or Jalen Warren the better pickup rest of season Michael Carter being day to day and not knowing Warren's injury status until more practice reports. So what are you thinking here between these two backup running backs with ambiguous injury situations in front of them. Yeah I mean it's tough whenever we have waivers on Tuesday I feel like we need to institute some sort of rule that all fantasy leagues need to move waivers to like Wednesday evening or Wednesday night or something like that. I think Tuesdays are just not the right time for waivers given like what we saw Monday night which was Najee Harris leaving with that abdominal injury. And I just was looking up before we started to stream to see if there's any update on the injury and there's not any update on the injury right now with Najee. You know I did look at Dr. Edwin Polaross over at fantasy points who you know is doctor of physical therapy and he tweets great nuggets all the time about you know how long players have been out historically with these general tags you know this general abdominal injury we don't know exactly what's going on there but it did seem like historically it's like a one to two week at least absence for players historically who have had this general tag of an injury. So I would expect you know I think it's not you know I'm leaning more right now as of Tuesday without any information I'm leaning more towards Najee Harris not being able to go this weekend than him playing this weekend. I mean it's possible that he plays it's just the way that I'm leaning. And obviously we have Jalen Warren who's had this hamstring injury. But Mike Tomlin last week you know Jalen Warren was questionable for a lot of the week and then they ruled him out I think on Friday of last week. But Mike Tomlin said that it's not a significant injury and so if Jalen Warren's active you know he has a chance to see like 80 percent of what Najee Harris was seeing you know without Jalen Warren you know I think that he you know it's a great match against Atlanta. So I think that he has sort of the the most appeal of the running backs basically on the waiver wire this week is in my opinion. I don't mind BAM night my thing with with night is you know I think there's a chance and I don't know if they've said anything about this or not. You know teams are really hush hush about this kind of thing. But I think there's a chance that James Robinson's knee has just been flaring up because he's had like this this issue or whatever. And they had this really bad weather game against Chicago this past week and it's bad turf or lack there you know just bad a bad field situation. And I think that all of that combined may have made them say this isn't really an injury designation. We're just going to make them an active for this game. And then BAM night comes in and looks pretty good in that role in that early down role. But he also you know night also had a 10.7 percent target share in that game. You know Michael Carter's injury seems less significant at this point than Najee Harris's. And I think I would use that as a tiebreaker between Jalen Warren and BAM night understanding that Jalen Warren we don't know the status of him fully right now. So I'm talking in hypotheticals right now. If Warren isn't able to go I think Benny Snell would be the ad again only because they have a good match against Atlanta. If it was a average or below average matchup I probably wouldn't be attacking the Steelers backfield and trying to add them this week. But if Jalen Warren goes I think he's probably an RB 2 territory. If he doesn't go then Benny Snell may be an RB 3 this week. You know maybe a higher end RB 3. So that's kind of how I'm viewing things be Warren and then BAM night just because I think the injury to Najee might be a little bit more significant and they're still you know maybe I mean I'm just speculating with the James Robinson thing but I do think that that's there's at least some logic there.  I mean I think there's more going on to this James Robinson thing. No that makes sense. And something I was keeping an eye on especially when these rookies like get go from no work to heavy work. I like to look at the game script. The Jets were pretty much in control of this game. I know the Bears score 10 points relatively early first and second quarter but the Jets had this game in the bag and Zonovan Knight is a rookie running back that they probably want to see what they got and I haven't gotten much game time opportunity for this player. I got more faith in Jalen Warren securing that role in that offense than Zonovan Knight after what we've seen if the injuries in front of them are sustained. And JJ you kind of answered the next questions from David. David said Jalen Warren or Benny Snell and it sounds like you're preferring Jalen Warren just because you expect him to have the role when he's healthy. Yeah I think when he's healthy he'll definitely have the role. I mean Jalen Warren's been really good this year. I mean every advanced metric he's been better than Najee Harris for the most part and he's been seeing a receiving role at times of season as well. Benny Snell looked good against Indy. There's no doubt. I'd argue the Steelers offensive line played their best game of the season last night. So that certainly helped. But yeah Benny Snell looked good. But Anthony McFarland looked decent too yesterday. So I think that there's a good chance that if Jalen Warren is active even coming off the injury that he would see a really good workload against Atlanta. But it just depends on what that injury is. So I'm still prioritizing Jalen Warren over Benny Snell but if we hear anything between now and when you have to make waiver claims then obviously switch that up. I am so with you on the waiver wire day too. I'm in the guillotine league. I'm in waivers run on Wednesday night and Thursday night and it's just a game changer. I feel so much more on top of what I'm adding on a Wednesday night as opposed to a Tuesday night. David wanted to know who's your top ad of the week at running back. Is that going to be Jalen Warren. I think Warren is probably at this point. You know there's a lot of guys that are just sort of like lower key. You know I not even guys that I didn't mention in my 15 transactions podcast and an article that I do every week. You know like because I've talked about them last week like a Kyron Williams like he's still someone who's somewhat interesting just because he's been playing that pass catching role for them. But I do think that you know Ty Davis Price, Jordan Mason you know the guys in that backfield are kind of intriguing with this Elijah Mitchell injury. You have Bam Knight obviously who we talked about. But I think Jalen Warren is probably the one who I'm most intrigued by. And maybe I'm most intrigued by him just because we don't know the answer to Najee Harris and how long he's going to be out. And if we knew that for sure maybe my tune would change a little bit. But I mean what if this is an injury that's a five week injury. We have no idea at this point. And so I'd rather just sort of you know risk that and roll the dice a little bit and lean towards Jalen Warren and just go for that upside because I think there's more not only that the Steelers have a really good schedule from here on out for running backs. That's the other thing to to point out. The Jets do too. I just don't think the jet I mean even this past week you know Ty Johnson was still seeing a decent amount of work in that backfield with Bam Knight. I'm not sure they're going to see that good of a game script to your point. You know each and every week. So I do think that Jalen Warren is probably the top ad. But there's other guys out there that you can get for a dollar or two or you know not have to even spend a you know one of your waiver priorities on this week because it's just there's a lot of like these like secondary running backs who you know could get a little bit more work maybe be a flex play and then have more upset if there's an injury. Absolutely I'm going to skip ahead a little bit here because it's related to what we were just talking about. Michelle want to know with the Elijah Mitchell injury man. RIP Elijah Mitchell that was probably my second most drafted player this year. But Michelle wants to know which San Francisco running back is now the backup to roster or starter if something happens to Christian McCaffrey in a PPR league. Are you going TDP or are you going Jordan Mason. Yeah so the short answer is no one knows. I don't even know how Shanahan knows. I mean if you go to different beat reporters in San Francisco they're saying different things. They're all you know some are saying Jordan Mason some are saying Ty Davis Price. But I think that the thing to to recognize with this backfield there's a few things Jordan Mason has been active you know throughout the season because he plays a special teams role. So this past week for instance you had Christian McCaffrey Elijah Mitchell Jordan Mason active for that team Eli Mitchell gets hurt. Christian McCaffrey doesn't close out the game because he's had this like knee issue. And so you see Jordan Mason getting a lot of work down you know towards the end of that game against New Orleans. 80% success rate looks really good in that game. But again it's the end of the game. They're closing you know they're grinding clock whatever. I don't think that necessarily means that Jordan Mason is going to be the guy above Ty Davis Price because if you look at what happened earlier this season remember back in week one or earlier this year this same exact injury happened with Elijah Mitchell where he sprains his MCL he's out for the six to eight weeks. And in that week two game Jeff Wilson Jr was still part of that backfield and Jeff Wilson was the lead back. And then number two on that list in terms of workload and usage was Ty Davis Price. But Ty Davis Price in that game had a high ankle sprain. And so it was towards the end of the game I believe. But Ty Davis Price was then out for a large period of time and he just never really got his groove back slash his rollback and then once they traded for Christian McCaffrey there was no reason to make a guy like Ty Davis Price or Tevin Coleman active because they have Christian McCaffrey Elijah Mitchell who's now back or who was back and Jordan Mason. So basically what I'm saying here is earlier in the year when we had this a very very similar situation they used Ty Davis Price over Jordan Mason. Jordan Mason didn't see any touches in that game where they were both active. And so I think using that evidence and using the fact that Davis Price was a better prospect than Mason. Mason might be playing better or played better in the preseason etc etc. But Davis Price was the better prospect wasn't like an amazing prospect in my model. But he's a bigger bodied guy who can run fast and oftentimes that works in the Kyle Shanahan offense. And so I think Davis Price compliments Christian McCaffrey pretty well. I think he would be the guy that I would prioritize just given the evidence of what we saw back in week two. But it can go in a lot of different directions because that's what Kyle Shanahan does right. I mean Kyle Shanahan likes to like to throw that curveball. I mean Tevin Coleman might be the guy this week. You have no idea. But I think Ty Davis Price is at least the logical option and if I'm wrong I at least use logic to get there and you can't beat yourself up whenever you do that. And it's probably a pretty low investment at this point to take that shot anyway. I'm with you. I'm going to lean TDP as well. And I've seen people talk about Jordan Mason being the active player but I love what you brought up. That was because he plays a different role. He was there as a special teams player.  We got JL in here saying hi Simon and JJ. What's up JL. Welcome man. Glad to have you here my friend. And he wanted to know JJ if JL and I were on the waiver wire how much fab are you bidding. I would spend half of my budget on each of you. Wow. Just I thought for sure you were going to have to pick favorites there and you found a way around it. Michelle had another question for us JJ. He said or she said what are your expectations and player comps for Jamison Williams when active. Thanks so much. So Jamison Williams coming back. I'm excited to see him on the field but I'm with Michelle where I'm not quite certain what to expect from him from a fantasy perspective right away. Yeah. I mean look sometimes in fantasy football it's OK to not necessarily know what's going to happen.  I actually said this on my podcast this week where I said you know fantasy football isn't about a singular projection and running with that projection. It's about understanding range of outcomes. And with Jamison Williams you know adding him or having him on your roster not that big of a deal because it's a low investment low cost to get him. But we know that the production or the prospect profiles there he was a 95th percentile prospect in my model amongst a very good wide receiver class. I mean basically you know Traylon Berks and Garrett Wilson and Chris Alava and Drake London were all ranked ahead of him but a 95th percentile in my model. I mean no one knows what that really means but it's good. And so Jamison Williams was a good prospect. And now you know he's someone who can who can stretch the field really really well. The Lions have missed that for a lot of the year. DJ Chark has been in and off the injury report. He did see a little bit more work this past week but DJ Chark probably isn't that dude. They haven't had like a real good field stretcher on that team. I think that's the kind of role that they might be able to get out of Jamison Williams down the stretch here. I just don't know if he's going to be able to be healthy enough to be a consistent fantasy asset. But you know even though I don't know that I'm still adding him if I can if I can afford that on my bench just because you never know what can happen. I mean we saw like think about OBJ his rookie year where he was banged up. He comes in like week four or whatever and everyone's like oh whatever. It's this rookie who hasn't gotten any reps and he just dominates the NFL. You know I don't know if that's going to happen because I'm likely not going to happen because he was somewhat of an outlier but even still you know that's that's someone that you want to at least like you know you want to invest in talented players and Jamison Williams at the very least is a very talented player. 100%. The OBJ Comp is a great one. That was so much fun for fantasy wasn't it? I feel like no one expected it like we knew how talented he was but I feel like from that moment on the way people view rookie wide receivers and what they can do has changed. Like I feel like that season shifted the way we think about fantasy wide receivers in their rookie season. Mo Diesel and you're at a question not a waiver wire question but a start question says it's a must win to make the playoffs wants to know whether they should play Mike Evans against New Orleans with a lot of more match up but one of the two Broncos wide receivers Jerry Judy or Cortland Sutton. Yeah look I know Mike Evans is bad against New Orleans. We don't see him really pop off very often but I mean this this Broncos offense right now is just so trashy. You know Jerry Judy coming off an injury I don't know if you can even consider playing him over most guys definitely not over Mike Evans. Cortland Sutton you know he's seen a 25% target share in three straight games partially because Jerry Judy's been sidelined but they just can't find the end zone. I mean they have the lowest touchdown total in football they have 14 offensive touchdowns this year which is just horrific it's horrendous. I mean if you're going to get one to one and a half touchdowns from the Broncos offense in a given week you can't assume that that one touchdown is going to go to one of those wide receivers. You know he's fine enough in a PPR format this a half PPR. I'm still going with Mike Evans. Yeah I'm rolling Mike Evans as well here. You said the Buccaneers offense is bad against or Mike Evans is bad against the Saints well the Broncos offense is just bad. It doesn't matter who they're playing. You can take the matchup out of it. Have you seen the TikTok series where the guy every week he's tracking if there's if Russell Wilson has thrown more touchdowns or has restrooms in his house and every week there's an update he's still four behind but maybe give him five more weeks and maybe we can finally catch it. I don't know how I don't know how Nathaniel Hackett still has a job. I think Nathaniel Hackett he seems like a really good guy good human being but man week one we sort of saw like we just knew it really like this wasn't the job for him like we saw it right away and it's fine. You know not everyone's just a job but I just don't think that he's he's it. Someone's got to take the fall and with the amount of money going Russ's way it can't be Russell Wilson. They just don't have the option for it to be Russ's fault so it's got to be Hackett's. David here wanted to know would you drop Michael Carter for Zonovan Knights or are you making this move drop in Michael Carter to pick up Zonovan? Probably not. You know it sounds like it's a low ankle for Michael Carter. Low ankles are I mean we've all probably had low ankle injuries before. You know just playing sports growing up and stuff like that. They're easier to bounce back from. Some players don't even miss games so I'm not I'm not going to drop Carter for Knight. You know Carter's not a bell cow. We have to get that out of the way. I mean the Jets aren't going to use him as a bell cow. It's just not the way that that his usage is going to look in that offense but with that being said he's a good pass catcher. He's a good player. I mean but he's a good pass catcher out of the back field. If he's healthy he's going to play the most snaps on that team. You know and like I said earlier with James Robinson who knows what's going on there and I think that James Robinson is more of a redundant piece to BAM Knight than Michael Carter is to those guys. Like Michael Carter is sort of like the Ty Johnson mold where he can play out of or catch pass out of the back field and sort of breaks some big plays but you know I'm not really worried about Ty Johnson the way that I would be with James Robinson to BAM Knight. Yeah I'm with you. I'm holding Michael Carter if I can especially with Mike White under center. That's a player that I want to hold on to. Mo Diesel here wanted to know Trevor Lawrence or Kirk Cousins in a must win. So I'm guessing this is another start question. The Jaguars have the Lions. It's a pretty solid match up and the Vikings going up against the Jets would be rolling out T-Law after his career defining performance against the Ravens. Are you rolling out Kirk Cousins? Yeah this one's a good one. I haven't done my rankings yet for this week for quarterbacks well for any position but I really really like that game environment in Detroit with the Lions and Jags. I mean it has the second highest over under I believe on this slate whereas the Minnesota games at 45 and a half. You know Minnesota has a 24 point implied team total. Jacksonville I believe is higher. Yeah they're at 26 and a half. So you know even just just team totals favor Trevor Lawrence. I think that the matchup definitely favors Trevor Lawrence you know a good environment overall. I think we're going T-Law. He's got the rushing upside a little bit more too than Kirk Cousins does. So I think we're going Trevor Lawrence. I think both are decent enough options but I think Trevor Lawrence in that game and against that opponent makes a lot of sense. It's a good problem to have but I'm rolling T-Law out there as well. Mitchell in here had a question for us said would you play to Sean Watson over Brady this week? The Bucks are always brutal against the Saints but to Sean Watson's first game back after almost two full years of not playing football what are you doing here JJ? Yeah look I mean it's it's one of those situations where you know it just depends on your wrist tolerance. If you believe that or if you if you need a higher upside and more variance in your roster then to Sean Watson makes sense over Brady. Again I haven't done my ranking so I don't know exactly which direction I would go right now but don't dismiss the Houston secondary either or just the Houston defense. I mean so I look at adjusted fantasy points aloud. It's just the way that I calculate. I look at fantasy points. I look at how these teams performed against other teams and then I adjust it for strength of opponent and Houston is a team that's actually been pretty good in adjusted fantasy points allowed. Maybe that has to do with the fact that I mean they have some decent pieces in the secondary but you know maybe it has something to do with the fact that teams are just running on them which is fine you know that's still part of the equation here. You don't think the Browns are going to run the ball against Houston with their rushing attack. I mean that's that's part of the problem here and so you know to Sean Watson coming back after not playing I mean of course there's the narrative of him playing against his old team and you can't tell me that the NFL didn't do that on purpose but you know of course you know there's you know they have a good implied team total all that stuff. I mean things are in their favor but I'm not going to be surprised if Cleveland goes with a run heavy approach and they just dominate on the ground in this game. Would I go Watson over Brady? You know I'm more of a risk taker with the way that I handle my fantasy teams. I like to play those high variance players. I probably would yeah I mean there's just a better game environment there overall better implied team total. I think Tampa Bay yeah Tampa Bay is only at 22 right now according to Fandle Sportsbook when we have over 27 for Cleveland. You know maybe that's just some juice that people are throwing down just because they're excited about DeSean Watson's return but Watson can break fantasy football. We've seen that before so if we get even 80% of that you know in a decent enough match up in a good game environment then you know DeSean Watson can be a QB1 this week so let's roll with DeSean Watson right now but that's subject to change because I have not done all my research for week 13 yet. Yeah and that's a good reminder for everyone. We're going to prioritize waiver wire questions here. If you ask them start sets we will get to them but having had time to fully dive into this week's rankings yet. Mo Diesel had another question for us wanting to know if ETN misses so Travis ETN injured right now would you start Brian Robinson. I'm going to go ahead and take Jerry Judy out of there coming back from injury or Cortland Sutton. So would you start B Rob over Cortland Sutton. Yeah so Washington this week they get the Giants right. I think if it's a half or full PPR league I'm probably still going Sutton. You know the thing with Brian Robinson I talked about this a little bit on my 15 transaction show. You know Robinson he faced Atlanta. Atlanta has been a team that has made a lot of running backs this season appear better than they actually are from a fantasy perspective. Really good example of that is recently Deontay Foreman. I know Foreman had a fine enough game against Denver. It wasn't that great though because he didn't do anything through the air. He's not doing anything as receiver.  So we saw that with Brian Robinson this past week against Atlanta. I still prefer Antonio Gibson to Brian Robinson rest of season. You know Robinson did play more snaps than Gibson last week after Gibson the previous week had seen a season high in Snapshare. So you know it was like oh Antonio Gibson is finally taking over this backfield. Oh wait Brian Robinson is going to see more snaps than him against Atlanta but you know negative game scripts which is possible in this game for Washington. You know they're one and a half point underdogs. You know it's at least possible. It's possible against Atlanta but the negative game script didn't really hit and that favors Brian Robinson more when they have positive game scripts because he's not that much of a passcatcher. He had his highest target share of the season this past week at like 13-14 percent but he that's the first time he's been over 10 percent and he's seen only he's seen zero targets in five of eight games played this year. Brian Robinson has. So it's not like he has a pass catching role if there is a negative game. You know there's it just piles on. There's a lot of things that can go south for Robinson. So I'm going to lean Sutton here. You know he's seeing good work despite the fact that the offense is complete trash but I look I mean Washington would we be that surprised if Washington doesn't score as many points as Denver this week. It's not like we're sitting here in a situation where I can't remember what the last example was of Mike Evans and Tampa Bay but you know it's it's like like we feel better about the Tampa Bay offense than we do the Washington offense. I mean Taylor Heineke has not been very good and so I think that's another way that you can look at this is from like a tiebreaker perspective. Yeah. No Brian Robinson. I feel like I've just been confused every time I'm like OK now he's the guy. Yeah. Come back out and it's an Antonio Gibson game as well. And this is a dude that on the season is averaging under four yards a carry on that three seven market. Lanna made him look real good up there near six yards a carry 5.8 yards a carry. He was going to get Selena. That's not the M.O. for Brian Robinson. It's not what you're going to see more of. I'm with you keep on rolling out Sutton. Michelle in here wanted to know thoughts on Mike White so much. Yeah. So it's hard to know for sure. But they've got Murray on by this week. So looking for a fill in. Do you think Mike White is a serviceable fill in for people with quarterbacks on by this week. Yeah. I think he's a good play. They get Minnesota. They're a top 10 team and adjusted fantasy points allowed. If you look at what Minnesota has done. I have it here actually. But if you look at what Minnesota has done over their last basically since week six over their last six games. They faced Teddy Bridgewater who was QB nine. Kyler Murray who was QB five.  It was QB 15. Josh Allen QB seven. Dak Prescott QB nine. And then Mac Jones last week was QB seven. I mean that's that's some some some pretty strong performances from guys. Some of those guys have not really done much this year at all. Especially like Mac Jones. You know Teddy Bridgewater being a backup all that kind of stuff. So it's a good match up for Mike White. You know there are concerns about the fact that he didn't throw a deep very often but he did connect on all four of his 15 plus air yard throws this past week. Which is a good sign. And the environment for him. I mean that the team has a decent enough offensive line. You know definitely a good one when they're fully healthy. And then you have great weapons and Garrett Wilson Elijah Moore and Corey Davis and Tyler Conklin is not a terrible horrific tight end. Narrative Street for him this week too going up against his old team. So we got the revenge game for Conk Daddy. But you know I think that the team itself around Mike White is strong enough to be able to sustain some of those yards after the catch numbers. I mean it's probably not going to be the same degree that it was this past week. But it's not like Minnesota's secondary and defense is playing that well anyway. So I think Mike White is probably one of the top streamers. I think it's probably White and I mean I like Goff this week too if he's out there. But he's rostered in closer to 50% of leagues. But I think Mike White and Kenny Pickett too is an interesting one against Atlanta. But you know he's right up there as one of the top streamers. Yeah and how wild is it that we're talking about the Jets and saying like you know they're a good enough team around him to support his back. Like the tune has changed on those Jets pretty quickly. We had a question in here from Black Mamba wanted to know is Zonovan Knight worth the number one overall waiver wire. So if this is in a waiver priority league if you've got that number one priority JJ are you spending it on Zonovan Knight in these crucial weeks leading into the playoffs. No I mean if your waiver resets each week then that's one thing. Because obviously you know if you need to spend the first overall waiver and BAM Knights the best player on your waiver wire then whatever. I understand that. But if you can save it for future weeks I would not be this is not the week to use that top waiver priority. Is Benny Snell better. No I mean we talked about it a little bit earlier. I think Jalen Warren is still the ad just because I think there's more upside there even though he is banged up. I think Jalen Warren is still the ad. If we hear anything differently about Jalen Warren's injury or about Najee Harris being fine or something like that. You know my tune will obviously change. We change our opinions with more information. But that's the direction I'm going right now. BAM Knight I think is fine to add but I would not be prioritizing him and then I see could Eno Benjamin be dropped. Yeah Eno Benjamin can be dropped. You can you can drop him. Feel free to drop him. Dustin wanted to know Mike White or Russell Wilson. So Russell Wilson or Mike White this week. The Broncos we previously mentioned going up against the Baltimore Ravens in Baltimore. And then the Jets of course in that match up we previously mentioned against the Vikings. Yeah to me this is easily Mike White. Russ and the Broncos have a 15 point implied team total this week. That is 30th in the NFL which is I believe that is that dead last in the NFL this week because there's two teams on by. I think they have a higher implied team total than the Rams do this week in Seattle or sorry lower one. So yeah so so Russ is not startable. I mean Russ is probably like going to end up being QB 23 or something in rankings this week is my guess. And so you know somewhere around there. Mike White I think is like a probably a high end QB 2 in this match against Minnesota. Decent enough scoring environment I think I'd go in that direction. Me too. And what a what a world we're living in more week 12 we're sitting here saying start Mike White in his second game on the season over what many people consider to be a future Hall of Famer and Russell Wilson. But it's the reality of the situation we're in. Michelle in here saying it's great listening to reason you mind the answers makes it so much easier to make decisions. Michelle thank you so much for coming in today with your questions. We really appreciate it. That's what we love doing. We're here to answer your questions.  So you have questions next week. Come on back to the same spot. JJ will be here either with myself or John Luke Garofalo to answer your questions. I think that's going to be it for us today though.

A snowmobiler from Waterville has died as a result of an incident that took place north of Niswa last month. 69-year-old Vicki Lynn Gleason's obituary says that she died at North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale on Tuesday. According to the Minnesota State Patrol, Gleason was riding a 2012 Yamaha snowmobile on a trail running alongside Highway 371 near the intersection of Highway 29 in Wilderness Road. Gleason's snowmobile struck a snowbank which caused her to flip over. An off-duty state trooper then found Gleason's body laying on the highway. Gleason was wearing a helmet but still suffered serious head injuries. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.


אני thank the organizers for inviting me, it's a great pleasure to speak in this conference in honor of Ilu Zee. I knew Ilu Zee for a long time since I came to the IHES in the early 80's, and before this I knew about his work, when I was a student at Harvard, I wanted to learn about fancy things, and Mumford suggested to me to look at Ilu Zee's thesis. ובסמרתיים בישראל אני רואה, אני רואה את הלקטרנות, ואני יכול לראה את הרגע הרבה, ובסמרתי, אני רואה את הרגע הרבה, זה היה הרבה טקניקל, לעשות פוגרס, ולא anyone else took it from the library. זה היה... אבל בכלל, אז זה היה מאוד ילבד, לצער עבור, בבקשה, בבקשה, ובסמרתי, כשבאה, בגלל, אני עושה על פלטינג' אורנוסנותימטיקס, ובסמרתי, אני עושה את הרגע הרבה, לנסות שוברדים, ובסמרתי, אז, בפרח, קונפרנטים, בנוראו פילוזי, 2005, אני רואה, על... פינטנסטיורי, לנסה, לנסה ביליון, לנסה של קונפרנטים בפינטנסטיורי, לתלכומלוגיה, לסקות כתוביל, So, in fact, he wrote, he wrote in 2006, a manuscript called Vanishing Cycles of a General Basis after Deline, let me see. Anyway, after Deline, or Blumon, or Gogo Zogaber. So, I spoke about a question that he asked in the end of this paper. And so, this is, in fact, a subject I already spoke about in Tokyo in 2007 and 2008 and 2009. And then, in 2018, I gave another lecture in Tokyo about things, other results on Vanishing Cycles on a general basis. And this also led to some results I spoke about in Oberwollfach last year. So now, I will reconstruct the first lectures for the one about the question of Illusi. So, this will be about comparison of oriented products. So, this already appeared in the talk of Abes and Rigid et al. And, in fact, this, so there is, so in the case where I have a sub-scheme of a scheme X, let's say defined locally by a finite type ideal, there is a map, so there is some kind of, well, something that Fujiwara denotes as a tubular neighborhood topos. So, this is a, so you've, you'd take the formal completion kind of minus Y, which doesn't exist, but it exists as some kind of attic space or reno types, rigid space. And then, you take the et al topos of this. So, there is a comparison map, which also occurred more recently, there are some lectures in the seminar of algebraic geometry of Ousei. And this, so the result was that for, in the quasi-excellent case, for a constructible shift, a torsion constructible shift, torsion prime to the residue characteristic, the natural map is an isomorphism. And this is a kind of a version of comparison between algebraic and rigid analytic et alco-homology. So, in any case, so we, So, the oriented product is a solution of two universal problem. So, when you, so, so you want to process this maps, T to TI, T to T1, T to T2, so that the composition, on the composition you have a map like this. And the, the, so the definition of the two categories of maps between, I mean, the definition of the two categories of torsion is like in the ZA4, in particular the points, there is a notion of specialization of points, so that the, the amorphism between, amorphism between points is amorphism of the corresponding fiber factors in the opposite direction. So, and there is a defining site for the oriented product assuming that you have defining sites for the, for the TI where, let us say with, with, I consider only sites with finite projective limits, and the morphisms are compatible with the limits to simplify, at least it is used in some references. And then the, the coverings like in the previous talk you consider, so you consider like, like U, U over F indoors W, V over G. So you have coverings of the form, coverings in U, coverings in V, and then the, like in the previous talk for any morphism for, I mean, the same as in the, so this is the asymmetric part where you, as soon as this is, well, this is the, the, so if you do it on both sides, you get a site that defines the fiber product of toposes, not the oriented product, what? You have the map from above, from U to U. Change notation, you have switches. No, no, so the, the, I don't remember. You need a map, you have the three things, three things, and the map, so one of the three things is both of you as the original, I think, so you need a map from U to D, I think. Hello, here I have sites, so I have sites, there is a site 41, site 43, site 42, and then there are morphisms of sites which are functors preserving finite limits, and then the, the, I have a map from U, well, I write it, I have a map from U to the, to what I call inverse of W from V to, so this is like U over W and V over W. What I mean D, the upper object is U to V and D. So here, here I have a, So this is just type C? Yes, so type C, then you have a, some kind of localization, so it's like a section of a number, so U to V. Anyway, I think you, you, you have, no, in any case, this is a standard, I just recall what was already. Both triple, the first term is U. Yeah, both triple, the first term is U and this changes by a pullback. Okay, so this, in any case, so if both are, so this, this was, yeah, so this was something introduced by Deline to, and then studied by Lomon to define vanishing cycle of a general basis using this canonical map, and then I need some properties of this relative to change, so for example, in the visage arguments, so if Y prime to Y, let us say, so this is exchange in the first, so actually this is an equivalence, if this is let us say integral, so it's like finite, and this is an equivalence for et al. And if instead it is proper, then it is not, but you can, you can still prove that at least for torsion, that it doesn't change the cohomology of sheaves, so now, so those toposes are coherent, but they also have the property, so if I have, let us say, a coherent topos, I can look at the so-called localic reflection, so I want to map it to a topological space, or a topos that comes from a topological space, so I use the sub-object of the final object, and here it becomes a spectral space, which, and then every point of this can be lifted to a point of X, this is a small extension of Delin's theorem, and then I have a special type of toposes, or let's call them type A-quarium toposes, where for every point of the corresponding topological space, the corresponding fiber-product topos is equivalent to representations of some to G-sets, so the topos of G-sets were G-sets of a finite group, so for example, a Taltopoi of schemes, or of attic spaces are like this, and also this is stable under this construction where all morphisms are coherent, and in fact you can do this construction also when one morphism is not coherent, and now, so one important thing is a base change, or in fact a universal base change result, which is like what Abess was speaking about, so in fact I wrote an email to Illusia, I think in 2006 discussing such things, so we have a general situation, so we recall that I have, okay, so in any case, so there is this general construction that Abess called co-vanishing, so in any case, if suppose that I have a fibered site where the fibers are sites with finite limit and finite covering families, and you have a base which is a topology and you consider on the total space the horizontal and vertical covering families and corresponding topos, and in this case, it maps to the topos downstairs, and if s is coherent, that this is coherent, in general it doesn't have to be coherent, but the higher direct images are computed by sheafy-fying on the level of pre-sheafs, the cohomology of the fibers, and moreover it has the property that for any map of toposes, the corresponding fibered product topos can be described in the same way, and actually there is a kind of universal kind of formal type of universal base-change theorem, so we can say that the map of toposes satisfying universal base-change theorem if for any, you can give two toposes over T and you consider the corresponding fibered product and you want that, let's say for a sheaf of a billion groups that you have a corresponding base-change map like in the proper base-change theorem or isomorphism similarly for a sheaf of sets, sheaf of groups, so this kind of situation satisfies a universal base-change theorem and the construction of the oriented product is a special case of this construction. Okay, can you record your horizontal and vertical morphism? So I have a, so suppose I have a pseudo-factor from the category S to Sites, I mean to, and then if I have a covering family here and I pull it back by a Cartesian thing and I have a covering family on the fiber, so at least, okay, so at least I'm, so this can be defined quite generally, I mean you can also relax on my hypothesis like this finite limit, but this I don't, I mean it can come technically, any case you can, the point is once you assume that the covering families are finite, you can control sheafification by just sheafifying, I mean, well it is done in this paper of Abess and also I wrote to you an email and okay, so this, and then the universal bench-change theorem is kind of just looking at this and seeing that you can, you know how to describe, by choosing to define inside, you know how to describe the, It was in your email 15 years ago Yes, yes. Yes, in any case, as a sketch at least, so in any case the, yes, so in any case, so these toposes where I have this, in this situation I have the, one can define the notion of constructability for sheaf of sets and sheaf of groups and I mean the usual conditions are equivalent like there is a stratification which is locally constant or is a finely presented object categorically and so it's a, and so how do I get another, so in any case the, so one can consider also morphisms between, so first of all, there is a notion of constructible sheaf that they say with coefficients in the finite ring and then you can also look at netarianity, so in the case of local netarian schemes the ascending sequence of sub-sheaf of a constructible sheaf is stationary, so something similar is true here, so for example if y is netarian and x1 and x2 let us say a finite type over y, then this is not, is also netarian topos, coherent of type A which means that any, so any quasi-compact object is also netarian and this is reduced to netarianity, local netarianity of the underlying topological space, so here one maps to this, to the corresponding fiber-product space, so there is a local reflection which maps to this and so objectively, and so you have to look at the map and so any point here is actually lift, there are finally many lifting and you need some generic generization property, so there is a criterion giving netarianity of the corresponding space which slightly stronger than the fibers being finite in this space being netarian. Now, so using this, so the basic points are given by geometric points, so x1, x2 and a point such that and a morphism between y, the images in y, excuse me, this is again, so for any such point, the corresponding automorphism group of like Galois group is contained in the Galois groups, the product of the Galois group, so the idea is to reduce statement on sheaves, to statements of sheaves of particular kind, like sheaves of the form tensor product of sheaves on each factor, tensor product of sheaves come let's say z-model sheaves come from each factor and this can be done, so one can prove that if I consider such sheaves and you consider the subcategory which is closed under extensions and direct summands and there's a morphism, the smallest one containing this, and you get all constructible sheaves, the z-model sheaves on the oriented product, so I can reduce for certain comological statements to such things and so yes, I want to speak about the rigid analytic so I will, I have to use does the middle one or the tubular neighborhood so Fujiwara denoted by tf over y but this is also the etal topos of the attic space so I have let's say y in x let's say they are quasi-separated y is defined by a finite type ideal then I have the formal completion so I kind of, I want to view this as a rigid analytic space and take the corresponding etal topos so first let us consider the usual rigid, the usual topology which gives you the Zarisky-Riemann space so you have the so you have the blow-ups of a relative admissible blow-ups to the inverse limit and I have chi let's say this chi and let us have the part over y then I can so of course there is some foundational issue in defining the in non-aterian case but at least one can define an algebraic version of the also it is in Fujiwara's paper but one can define a kind of a zillion version of the rigid etal so let us consider the following site I have x prime to x which is a finite type and etal outside y and the coverings are those families such that the corresponding Zarisky-Riemann space so this chi relative to y you have surjectivity on the corresponding Zarisky-Riemann level so in fact you can so think about it, after you blow up everything you get a situation essentially you have evaluative rings and then you can also consider the topology of the special fiber and then you have to take you have to take some what remains is just a finite etal cover of the general fiber so in fact this can be described like in the previous talk as a kind of feltings to a post so I have the so I have the let us take on the limit space I have the etal topology so I can consider O chi so let us say O chi locally you invert something and so you can consider U going to finite etal O chi O U 1 over phi algebra like in the previous talk but you you restrict it to just to chi bar so you have well this is a kind of a fiber side over chi but you have to pull it back to chi bar so at every point of chi bar you get in the limit you get what like in the previous talk the corresponding thing for the stock so the point is that the co-vanishing or the horizontal vertical topos for this one can see that this is equivalent to the ridgid etal topos and in particular one is some kind of universal bench change property it can be used to give variants of some proofs in but so this is for analytic adic spaces now so just to so in any case so this rigid analytic topos has a map to the etal topos of X minus Y this is a non-coherent map between coherent topos and it tells also a map to Y and then there is an arrow like this so this means that for in etal X minus Y you can define the corresponding shift so this comes by just look evaluating it on this and the shift on such things and so this gives a map from this to the oriented product of etal topoi which is so here I have coherent maps to this is a non-coherent map in general and then I want to prove a comparison theorem for epsilon so for constructible shifts I want to prove that this is an isomorphism so so roughly there are the visage processes where I can restrict the shifts which come from the factors and then using behavior for finite or proper maps and I also need my local uniformization theorem which was used in the asterisk book so at least so you reduce to you reduce the case where the shift on F on this is let us say reduced to F2 to be extension so I have to evaluate this on some object so actually I have let us say I have to to evaluate on an object of this site but I will reduce so essentially the main point is to reduce to reduce to cohomology on sinks of the form this where V is open in X minus Y and using the structure of shift and the visage I reduce to shifts coming from Y so this isomorphism implies the computation of vanishing cycles so we know that if you compute vanishing cycles like this or if you pull back and push forward you get the same thing but your isomorphism there I think it implies this the isomorphism you wrote under a strong condition of quasi excellence quasi excellence and constructibility and what you are speaking about is it's just for torsion you mean that on the diagram above exactly you start from there you can take the vanishing cycles the main vanishing cycles means higher direct image pullback and you can also take the pullback and higher direct image and we know this is isomorphism for torsion okay this comparison is kind of an easy comparison here it is a comparison for kind of open non-quasi compact domain in the rigid space like comparison on aphinoid minus F equals zero what you are saying is comparison on aphinoid so of course the point is that all the previous things would enter into steps in the proofs so I will not but essentially the so I am so maybe my notation was omega before so the idea is that I have omega to X so I have some direct images of as I said Z mod L from just in the schematic sense restricted to I and I want to compare it to the rigid analytic kind of rigid analytic direct images so going to going to Y so I want to of course so this is a non-quasi compact map and when omega is everything you get a previous comparison result so the idea is to reduce the any case using weak local and also I have a twist by some shift on Y so the idea is that using certain universal base so omega will be exhausted by domains in some chronicle using certain blow up by some aphino I mean omega I by quasi-quasi-separated so essentially I will prove it for a large enough index I have comparison in the quasi-excellent case and the twist by a shift on Y will be ended using a universal bench change theorem so and so the so essentially it reduces to calculation in the constant case now the in the constant case I will reduce to things which come from logarithmic geometry so so let us say you have suppose you have log regular and this is let us say X- some union of strata and let us say you have a fine open immersion actually what then one can prove that it is principle so locally it is given by so U is like locally X1-P and then there is a purity absolute comological purity which implies the stability of the regular case and for the inclusion of the strata where the log structure is trivial but you can generalize it to such thing so you have that r j lower star let us say z mod n is wedge I of r1 and r1 comes from the Kummer sequence so you have j OU star over O star with a T twist tends to z mod n so one can check this and then this is classical what? yeah classical but I will reduce so I will reduce the calculation yeah so I have my omega let us say so I have my y X let us say and then maybe bigger one is z so omega is the complement of X-z sorry r i and j lower star I mean I was in immersion yes no no r this one is j for example so omega is an open of what? no no ok so suppose that I have so this is defined by an ideal i and this is defined by an ideal j and then I can construct the blow up of j plus i to the n X and the open where i to the n generates so this so you can think about the case where let us say those are principle ideals let us say f and phi so you want to consider the domain with absolute value of f is at least phi to the n this is obtained by certain blow up so essentially add f for f phi to the n so and then so I have my kind of omega n which has a nice model using this so the idea is to take this so in the I work I reduced to the log regular the normal crossing situation but in any case then I will need to to make some so at least I will have after normalized blow up I will have a log regular situation and I blow up some idea like f phi to two elements so the point is that I will have a locus where when I look at this x prime and normalize 2x and restrict to i so there will be points where at least when n is large the fiber of the blow up at least the full blow up is a p1 and a fine part is a1 or just the origin when I don't like when so I will have a closed locus where the blow up gives a1 in the fibers and this will be independent of n and then when I normalize I just add some possibly some roots or on the reduced the point is on the reduced fiber on the reduced locus there will be still an action of gm at least after some cover so all the shifts that I get from like x-z going to x prime n so all the direct image shifts that I get on the will be calculated using this and so there will be so in fact relative to the gm action there will be monodromic in the sense of dn and then one knows that the homology on the kind of the special fiber that is over y can be computed just by restricting restricting to the zero section so and then when I look at this calculation like one can compare the zero sec I mean see that well this also gives the direct image from x-z to x so one can compare the two commutations and see that you have a comparison for large n so this actually will be so I will prove the statement in the strong form that for large n so omega n ridge to y so for large n r rf low star z mod n n is r i there is a morphic to r i f n well z mod l so at least for a given degree of homology since I use a weak local uniformization I will have this and also tensoring with any shift on y and I think that one can do it also uniformly in i even when the dimension is unbounded using the technique of X for z 13 and that's the risk book and so now so I want to first I use structure of constructible shifts to reduce to a case where I have well I have to also to evaluate it on some object but suppose I already know that the object on which I evaluate comes from an open in the in x-y but of course this requires to make somewhere but then the shift is again a tensor product but you can assume the shift is like an extension by zero something locally constant on some and then by passing to a finite cover I say extension by zero of a constant and then constant so I but then I want to make it a situation nice to use the calculation in the log regular case so I need a covering for the H topology like like I use in the finance theorems to to do this and of course I need all the the psychological descent thing that goes into that and the similar thing for the rigid a a homology but it's a a well there are a so here a since I it looks like formally I need a since I replaced by a it looks like yes yes yes so now when by the way so when the same situation in the non there are failures in the when you are in the non-ateria non quasi excellent case for example it is easy to see that for for valuation ring of rank two this should fail so because you have situation where the rigid simply you have two points somehow when you look rigid analytically or completely along that you don't see the generic part so you can see that this comparison in homology of omega omega could be a generic point for rank two valuation ring and this would be empty so this cannot hold if you work over rank one valuation rings and the same even non-ateria and then one can reduce to let's say those with algebraically closed field of fraction and then there are there one can have an analog of the weak local uniformization in terms of a log smooth saturated morphisms and one can generalize this approach and also over one dimensional so one can have a generic version over an open let's say and then you at finally many point you can compare to the completion of the normalization you have so the the quasi action is not so important for one dimensional DVR because you and when you have a in the case of Nagata's example of normal non-analytically normal thing so one can see that it gives a situation where this fails in the dimension two Nagata type example of non-analytically normal you will have a situation where when you do some completion so before the so simply the when you do completion along why the analytic the algebraic etalcomology will change so it cannot and after completion it will be because of the accident so you will not have comparison in general on the terrain case so I am sorry so I I tried to read some assorted sketchy notes but I was yes so anyway there are more results about the questions of O'gogos but this was the no no ok so there are questions about but this is not related to this I mean like which blowing up you need to make the to make the vanishing cycle nice but what? no when did I start oh no ok I thought that I am ok so in any case the example that I mentioned in the end about the non so when you have let's say I is a DVR and I have something in the completion which is transcendental over I then one can construct in the you can add to I so you can consider things like y minus phi to the n minus some approximation divided by power so the uniformity of the uniformizer so you have some extension of the local ring so the idea is that it will be isomorphism on the completion even the pi added completion and you will have so you will have something which is irreducible you will have a regular local ring and irreducible seeing which in the completion becomes an end's power you can even make it strictly and zillion and so this and then when you take an end's root you get this so I say n prime to p so so this is an example of Nagat also discussed in the hysterisk book and so here I will take omega to be the complement of z so I can also complete a long z without changing the properties and so I will have a situation where so also I strictly visualize so when I complete okay so when I so now over so when you complete along the special fiber the since already this is like completing the local ring so then this will be this will have n components so omega will have n components so in any case I have a situation where just when I do the direct image of the constant shift in the original situation is z mod l and let's say in the completely long special fiber situation is z mod l to the m and after after I do this coalition I mean the quasi excellent case so I have comparisons of the rigid analytics so the rigid analytics space will not change so this shows the comparison phase now let me maybe about this twist by things coming from the base is like this some rigid analytics space some tubular neighborhood maybe to y so I have some quasi compact and quasi separated map and then I claim that the actually this is a general fact so I claim that r i f star for all shifts in the analytics space commutes with tensor products with a shift on y so this must be, this is related to statements of Bateson theorems of Hoover but I didn't find it exactly in his book but it is, so this comes from the universal Bateson phenomenon that I explained because I hope it's let's see so no I no this excuse me so I have, I need to introduce the Zariski Riemann space here though it will be the map the direct image of this Zariski Riemann space can be computed using Galois homologies locally at stock so it then I need I need this monodromic shift argument because I have a situation which is non-proper but I control the non-properness using the monodromic shift so then in all the cases when I compute I get monodromic shifts I can restrict the zero section so this is used also for twists by constant shifts by arbitrary shifts on the base so I think, so this is not okay so you said monodromic shifts are they the story? yes so verdiere at least in a finite type situation over a field but one can generate on a more basis and also here it's not exactly finite type because possibly an inverse well in any blow up yeah I work in yeah so you have a kind of a con situation or a spec of a graded algebra I thought that your business with the phi n or something like reduction with normal cone so monologue with that yeah so in any case I have a situation where I want to understand this rigid analytic so I have some something defined by f equals zero this is defined by phi equals zero I want to understand this by blowing up and after I blow up I can what was the question? oh it's similar to reduction to normal cone somehow that reduction to monodromic shifts but I'm not sure no in verdiere there is this normal I mean he uses it for his specialization of shifts but here what happens is that when I when I do it at least with n large enough the point is that f I want to exclude cases where f like f could be locally phi to the n times a non zero constant I mean times a unit and this I don't I don't want so so there is there are points which are in the closure of f equals zero outside y and the other points so at those points I get just the zero section at least on the reduced local at those points I get the full a1 but after I normalize I get possibly another a1 but up to isogenic GM still act on this one so I can see that of course this requires a commutative algebra at least when I take the reduced local after some isogenic on the reduced local the normalized blow up and since I can calculate the stocks using logarithmic geometry you get something which is constant or essentially on the orbits so you get the monodromic shift and then you use very thin actions of this business well this here I just need the to yeah I just need this kind of hyper cover and commological descent for both the rigid and the oriented flow situation to reduce nice situations so I very time appears in the proofs but not in the so this is an instance where oriented commogical descent really enters because in the book eventually you can get rid of it yeah there was an appendix of shank that you could do it with yeah yeah in fact the appendix of shank is like the argument I had in mind which was when I lecture in Princeton it was something like I mean like to look at the structure of the proof of the structure of the argument commogical descent still it gives what one needs but then it will it turned into oriented commogical descent in the seminar but the original idea was like what Jank did in this and which also works in the complex case without having oriented without having a theory of oriented products in that case so my last question is somehow philosophical what kind of applications of this mean theorem that to the effect that f is our epsilon f is our epsilon f star f so does it simplify and improve in analytic region analytic geometry or does it simply no this includes so the main point here is to prove a comparison between algebraic and analytic commology and this is like a comparison and it is proved in the expected way by kind of the resolution singularity if you have enough resolution singularity you reduce to nice calculation so it it cannot but then I thought about more refined so the thing I talked in in 2018 was also things about like the properties of vanishing like so maybe we put it for 6.20 maybe I I will talk in the next online conference for I will do the I will continue about the other topic so in particular I can prove I think in any case so if on an open you have I can also do a truncated version so if the vanishing cycle of a general but it's up to some degree are well behaved on an open and it's enough to blow up something in the complement so it's a question for you to get okay and also you have also the local situation so in the case where there is a good theory I can prove that the map of balls is a so you know there's another proof for this using another possible modification but I can prove that the goodness already implies a for me no balls and also there is a question of the Japanese on good and very good I mean it's transitivity and and so it yes, I met for my next for Takashi first let's keep this in mind for Takashi okay you're almost okay that's just for the driver for the ball okay
