Die Themen im heutigen Versicherungsfunk Update sind: BVK begrüßt Stärkung der betrieblichen Altersvorsorge Der Bundesverband Deutscher Versicherungskaufleute (BVK) unterstützt die Pläne der Bundesregierung. Das Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales hat einen Referentenentwurf zur Reform der betrieblichen Altersvorsorge vorgelegt. Ziel ist es, die bAV attraktiver zu gestalten und ihre Verbreitung zu erhöhen. Kritisch sieht der Verband dagegen, dass das Sozialpartnermodell gestärkt werden soll – mit dem die bAV allein zwischen den Sozialpartnern ausgehandelt wird.

Insbesondere Jüngere unzufrieden mit privater Absicherung Bei der privaten Absicherung gegen Unfälle, Krankheiten oder Berufsunfähigkeit ist die Zufriedenheit unter den Befragten der Generation X, der Millennials und der Generation Z insgesamt geringer als bei den älteren Befragten. Jeweils rund ein Viertel der jüngeren Generationen ist sogar ausdrücklich unzufrieden mit der eigenen Absicherung. Unter den Babyboomern äußert sich nur jeder Fünfte unzufrieden.

Podcast host Scott Crockatt sits down with BCA's economists Mike Holden and Alicia Planincic to discuss the good, the bad, and the uncertain of BCA's recently-released Spring Economic Snapshot. In an episode filled with anecdotes, analogies and silver linings, the group chats about what it takes to build an Alberta economic outlook at a time when uncertainty seems to be the only certainty in global markets.  This edition of the bi-annual Alberta Economic Snapshot comes at a time of both strength and strain. Alberta continues to lead Canada in population growth, but even with that, most indicators—from jobs to investment, point to a cooling economy, and some warning lights are flashing. Mike and Alicia run through the various signals and what they could mean for Alberta's economy, both now and into the future. --------------------- About The Business Council of Alberta The Business Council of Alberta was founded on a simple idea: to make life better for all Albertans.

Minnesota-based Cargill will lay off about 8,000 employees worldwide this winter, including 475 positions from its Minnetonka headquarters. And Minnesota state investigators say they have retrieved video from the phone of a man killed in a federal operation in 2021. It would be the only video that captures the confrontation between Winston Smith and members of a U.S. Marshals Service task force. Reports that people had seen the video prompted the BCA to do more to crack into the encrypted phone. This is the MPR News afternoon update, hosted by Emily Reese. Theme music by Gary Meister.

Jason welcomes local attorney Joe Tamburino in-studio to talk about the BCA finding evidence which supported the police's version of a controversial shooting in Uptown. Pluss he comments on several other cases in the news.

State investigators say they have a crucial piece of evidence from a police shooting in 2021. Winston Smith was shot and killed at the top of a parking garage in the Uptown neighborhood of Minneapolis while sitting in his car. The BCA believed the only video of the incident was from Winston Smith himself recording on his phone. But it wasn't until now, that officials say they were able to unlock the phone and watch the video. MPR News senior reporter Sarah Thamer joins Minnesota Now to talk about what this video means for the case.

improvising at the BCA! 11/20/24

Improvising with Luke, Sammy and Peter on Nov. 13th, 2024 at the BCA.

Omar Issa, ResiQuant (Co-Founder)/Stanford University A study by FEMA suggests that 20-40% modern code-conforming buildings would be unfit for re-occupancy following a major earthquake (taking months or years to repair) and 15-20% would be rendered irreparable. The increasing human and economic exposure in seismically active regions emphasize the urgent need to bridge the gap between national seismic design provisions (which do not consider time to recovery) and community resilience goals. Recovery-based design has emerged as a new paradigm to address this gap by explicitly designing buildings to regain their basic intended functions within an acceptable time following an earthquake. This shift is driven by the recognition that minimizing downtime is critical for supporting community resilience and reducing the socioeconomic impacts of earthquakes. This seminar presents engineering modeling frameworks and methods to support scalable assessment and optimization of recovery-based design, including: 1. Procedures for selection and evaluation of recovery-based performance objectives and study the efficacy of user-defined checking procedures. 2. A framework to rapidly optimize recovery-based design strategies based on user-defined performance objectives. 3. Building technology to support utilization of these approaches across geographies and industrial verticals. Together, these contributions provide the technical underpinnings and industry-facing data requirements to perform broad, national-scale benefit-cost analysis (BCA) studies that can accelerate decision-making and engineering intuition as resilient design progresses in the coming years.

The summer of 1998 was coming to a close when two young women disappeared from the St. Cloud area of Minnesota. April Geyer was 21 years old, and Roseanna Forcum was just 15. April and Rose had only recently become acquainted. Although they ran in the same social circle, it wasn't immediately clear that the girls had vanished together. At that time, we were approaching the end of an era when most people didn't own cell phones. You had to wait until you reached your destination or found a pay phone to call home and inform your parents about your plans and when you would return. As April and Rose's families independently searched for them, they eventually realized they weren't alone. Two years later, an informant came forward with information indicating that April and Rose were together when they disappeared, even identifying a suspect believed to be their killer. Despite extensive searches, April and Rose were never found. Now, twenty-six years later, their families are determined to bring their stories back into the light, hoping to finally uncover the truth.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of April Geyer and Roseanna Forcum, please contact the BCA tip line at 877-996-6222.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramTwitterPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
