this episode of the partee recaps the first ever pdga major in Estonia!
Ballot pops up on my screen, and the ballot itself is simple and easy to use, and I go through it, I take my time, no rush. Whenever I'm ready, I hit submit. And when I hit submit, three things happen. First, my ballot is encrypted. Second, it's anonymized. Third, I get a tracking code, like if it were a FedEx package, so I can track the progress of my ballot all the way through the process.选票会在我的屏幕上弹出,整个选票设计得简单易用,我可以慢慢来,不着急。等我准备好,就点击“提交”。当我提交时,会发生三件事:第一,选票被加密;第二,身份被匿名处理;第三,我会收到一个追踪码,就像寄 FedEx 包裹那样,可以在整个流程中追踪我的选票状态。Then it goes back to the New York City Board of Elections, and they air-gap it, which means they take it offline. And once my ballot is no longer connected to the internet, then they decrypt it, a paper copy is printed out that gets mixed in with all of the other ballots.之后,选票会被送回纽约市选举委员会,他们会将其“隔离”,也就是断网处理。一旦选票完全脱离互联网环境,他们就会将其解密,然后打印出纸质副本,与其他所有纸质选票一起混合处理。I know where my ballot stands, because I can see from the tracking code that it was received, tabulated, printed and so on. And the underlying code itself is open source, which means that anyone can audit it. Anyone can verify it. It's totally transparent.我能清楚地知道我的选票走到哪一步了,因为从追踪码上可以看到它是否被接收、统计、打印等。并且,整个系统的底层代码是开源的,意味着任何人都可以审核、验证它,一切都是完全透明的。To me, that's a lot more secure than the way we vote right now. And we've already built it. We've already paid for it, and we're giving it away to anyone who wants to use it for free.对我来说,这种方式比我们现在的投票方式要安全得多。而且这个系统我们已经开发完成了,也已经为它买单了。现在,我们把它免费开放给任何想使用它的政府。And with a little more work, I think we could do even more. We could register people to vote on the app. We could give voters nonpartisan information about candidates or ballot measures so you actually know what you're voting on.再多做一点努力,我认为我们还可以做得更多。我们可以在应用中让人们注册为选民;我们可以向选民提供关于候选人或公投事项的非党派信息,让你真正知道自己在投什么票。And versions of this already do exist. Mobile voting in a way, exists in Estonia. They use it in party elections in the UK. Somemunicipalities here in Canada use it. But not in the US, and not in most democracies.事实上,这种形式的投票已经存在于一些地方。在爱沙尼亚,某种程度上已经实现了移动投票;英国的党内选举中也使用过;加拿大一些市政选举中也采用了。但在美国,还没有,在多数民主国家也还没有。And that's where the hard part really kicks in: getting politicians to let us use our phones to vote in elections, because in my experience, people in power don't like making it easier for other people to gain power. And that's -- Yeah, exactly.而最难的部分正是这里:让政治人物同意我们使用手机进行投票。因为根据我的经验,掌权者通常不喜欢让别人更容易获取权力。对,就是这样。And that's why I'm here. Because they're not just going to do it if I ask nicely. They're not just going to do it if I snarl at libertarians on X or at the liberals on Bluesky. They're only going to do it if you make it happen. If we all make it happen. And we can.这也是我为什么站在这里。因为光靠我礼貌地请求,政治人物不会做这件事;即使我在 X 上对自由意志主义者怒吼、在 Bluesky 上对自由派咆哮,也没用。他们只会在你们推动下才会动起来。如果我们大家一同努力,就能让它发生。我们做得到。Every major right that has ever been won, anywhere: the right to vote, the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, same-sex marriage, anything, has only happened because enough people stood up loud enough and long enough and demanded their rights, and eventually the status quo had to give in历史上每一项重要权利的争取,无论在哪:投票权、《民权法案》、《美国残障人法案》、同性婚姻……所有这些,都是因为有足够多的人站出来,发出足够大的声音,持续足够长的时间,坚持要求自己的权利,最终旧有秩序不得不让步。And we can do that here, too. We can make voting easier and a lot more secure. We can bring regular people back into the process. We can take power away from the extremes. We can end the dysfunction and polarization that plagues our society today.而我们在这里,也完全可以做到。我们可以让投票更容易、更安全。我们可以让普通人重新参与到民主程序中。我们可以削弱极端派的权力。我们可以终结困扰当今社会的混乱与撕裂。We can give our politicians the cover and the courage they need to work together and to finally, finally get things done. We can do all of this in the next ten years. We can do it with mobile voting.我们可以为政治人物提供掩护和勇气,让他们彼此合作,终于——真的可以办成事。我们可以在接下来的十年内做到这一切。我们可以用“移动投票”来实现。
When you hear from God, you need to make sure you manage well what you feel the Lord has told you. How you hear is important for you to be able to obey what God says to you. Humble yourself and submit to God, and He will bless you.
Este vídeo es un extracto del último programa en directo de AutoFM Motorsport. Nuestro colaborador Jose Manuel González nos trae toda la actualidad del WRC tras el Rally de Estonia, donde Oliver Solberg logró una victoria histórica que permitió a Toyota alcanzar las 100 victorias en el Campeonato del Mundo de Rallyes. Un hito que consolida a la marca japonesa entre los grandes fabricantes del campeonato, y que la sitúa a tan solo dos triunfos de igualar a Citroën como el más laureado de la historia. Además, analizamos el papel de Solberg como tercer piloto más joven en ganar un rally del WRC y repasamos las emotivas palabras del presidente Akio Toyoda tras este éxito con sabor a revancha y nostalgia.

Indifference is the fuel of autocracy. What role does literature have in creating a culture of care? During the European Literature Night we examine the political potential of literature.‘Art can serve many purposes and take on many forms. But one of the key characteristics of a work of art is that it stimulates the mind and the heart' – writes Alicja Gescinska in her essay Empathy against Indifference: On Totalitarianism and Art as a Moral and Political Force. During the European Literature Night we examine the political potential of literature. Can we improve ourselves in the act of caring through caring art?About The European Literature NightThe European Literature Night is organized by De Balie and EUNIC Netherlands, the network of European national institutes of culture and national bodies engaged in cultural activities.

Esta semana, en el terreno del repaso a lo que ocurrió el fin de semana pasado, tenemos el cuento de hadas del Rally de Estonia, donde Oliver Solberg, tras estrenarse en esta nueva generación de los Rally 1 con Toyota, se llevó la victoria. De eso, y del “bluff” de Ganassi en Toronto, toca hablar en el segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1. Estonia: para frotarse los ojos. Sin duda, la victoria de Solberg es una de las mejores noticias de las que hablar. En el Podcast hace ya tiempo que se venía comentando el impresionante desempeño del noruego y, a la primera oportunidad, lo ha demostrado de largo. El Rally de Estonia fue el escenario de una auténtica sorpresa. El joven piloto noruego, en su debut, logró un triunfo contundente ganando 9 de los 20 tramos, incluyendo una destacada actuación en el Súper Domingo. Además, el rally estuvo marcado por varios problemas y accidentes que alteraron las clasificaciones, pero el resultado de Solberg supone una de las mejores noticias de la temporada, posicionándolo como una de las promesas más sólidas de la categoría. Toronto: victoria de O’Ward y mala estrategia en Ganassi. En la Indy tuvimos una carrera loca, maravillosa, llena de emoción, adelantamientos, estrategia y… con un inconmensurable Pato O’Ward, que se llevó una gran victoria ante la debacle del Chip Ganassi, que dio a Palou y a Dixon una estrategia infumable, que les hizo acabar muy atrás. Esta vez la estrategia buena se la dieron en Ganassi a Simpson, que acabó tercero en el podio. O’Ward, por su parte, salía desde la décima posición y aprovechó una elección acertada de neumáticos blandos al inicio, beneficiándose de una temprana bandera amarilla en la vuelta 3 tras el accidente de Scott McLaughlin (que no levanta cabeza). Mientras tanto, Álex Palou, líder del campeonato, apostó por neumáticos duros y una estrategia más conservadora, pero esta se vio comprometida por las sucesivas neutralizaciones en pista. A pesar de haber liderado gran parte de la carrera, Palou se quedó fuera del Top 10 por primera vez en 2025, tras verse obligado a parar en momentos poco favorables debido a varios accidentes, como el de Rossi en la vuelta 30 y el múltiple choque en la vuelta 37. Entonces, O’Ward ejecutó una tercera parada estratégica en la vuelta 59 que lo colocó como líder virtual definitivo, consolidando su segunda victoria de la temporada. Rinus VeeKay y Kyffin Simpson completaron el podio, con Colton Herta y Marcus Ericsson en el Top 5. La lucha por el Campeonato. En el campeonato, O’Ward recortó 30 puntos a Palou, quedando a 99 puntos de distancia cuando restan cuatro carreras. Esto mantiene viva la lucha por el título, aunque Palou sigue siendo el gran favorito, especialmente de cara al próximo GP de Monterey en Laguna Seca, un circuito donde siempre ha estado en el podio.

El miedo a la amenaza de Rusia ha provocado que cinco de sus vecinos, Finlandia, Polonia, Estonia, Letonia y Lituania, hayan anunciado su intención de abandonar la Convención de Ottawa, el tratado aprobado en 1997 que prohíbe el uso y la fabricación de minas antipersona. ¿Cuáles son las causas y las consecuencias de esta decisión? ¿Qué impacto puede tener en la lucha contra la prohibición de este tipo de armamento que mata mayoritariamente a civiles? Lo analizamos con Camilo Serna, vicepresidente de la Junta Directiva de la Campaña Internacional para la Prohibición de las Minas Antipersona y director de la Campaña Colombiana contra Minas, y con Teivo Teivainen, profesor de Historia Mundial de la Universidad de Helsinki.Escuchar audio

Aunque vamos a estar dos semanas sin Fórmula 1 (en los circuitos, que las carreras ahora son en los despachos), el fin de semana estuvo bien animado con el WEC en Brasil y, sobre todo, las dos carreras de la Indy en el oval corto de Iowa, con victorias de O’Ward y de Palou. Y el próximo fin de semana tampoco nos quedaremos sin competición: viajamos a Estonia para el Rally de casa de Tänak. La gran atracción del fin de semana. El Rally de Estonia, a falta de Fórmula 1, será la atracción del próximo fin de semana - aunque también tendremos IndyCar, que está trepidante. Esta es una de las pruebas más rápidas y técnicas del calendario. Sus características incluyen tramos de tierra con secciones muy rápidas, saltos espectaculares y una superficie que exige máxima precisión. El recorrido se extiende durante tres días e incluye tramos que superan los 20 kilómetros, lo que obliga a pilotos y equipos a afinar la estrategia y, sobre todo, la gestión de neumáticos. Las gomas más utilizadas serán las blandas, ideales para sacar ventaja en una superficie que puede degradarse rápidamente. En cuanto a los protagonistas, se espera una intensa lucha entre los grandes nombres de la categoría reina y, sobre todo atención a los equipos oficiales, que han preparado evoluciones específicas para este rally. La incógnita estará en la adaptación de los pilotos a las condiciones variables del terreno, donde la experiencia previa puede marcar la diferencia… aunque teniendo en cuenta el cambio de gomas de este año, todo puede pasar. Mientras tanto, en Estados Unidos,… La IndyCar nos dejó un fin de semana espectacular en el óvalo corto de Iowa con dos carreras vibrantes. En la primera, Pato O’Ward logró una victoria memorable en su 100ª participación en la serie, superando al gran favorito, Josef Newgarden, que había liderado 232 de las 250 vueltas. Una parada en boxes perfecta y dos reinicios controlados permitieron al mexicano imponerse por solo 0,235 segundos, logrando el triunfo más ajustado en Iowa desde 2007. Esta victoria cortó la racha de Penske en el circuito y dio a Arrow McLaren y Chevrolet su primer triunfo del año. La anécdota, el hijo de Dixon que quería que ganara O’Ward, posando con el mexicano y su trofeo. En la segunda carrera, Alex Palou volvió a demostrar por qué es el gran dominador de la temporada. Favorecido por una bandera amarilla en el momento justo (pero claro, hay que estar ahí), el piloto español aprovechó la estrategia de Ganassi (que también fue muy buena con Dixon, que terminó segundo y le dio un doblete al equipo) y se llevó su séptima victoria en doce carreras, un registro histórico que no se veía desde 1994. Con este resultado, Palou amplía su ventaja en el campeonato a 129 puntos sobre O’Ward y se consolida como el máximo favorito para revalidar el título. Contrastes. Newgarden, que parecía imbatible en Iowa, terminó frustrado y fuera del top 5 debido a la estrategia y a la mala suerte con las banderas amarillas. Las dos carreras dejaron incidentes notables, como los accidentes de Kirkwood, Herta y McLaughlin, además de problemas mecánicos para Power. Eso sí, como siempre en este óvalo tan pequeño, hubo mucho espectáculo. El campeonato sigue vivo, aunque cada vez más inclinado hacia Palou, que busca entrar en la historia con récord de victorias y títulos consecutivos. La próxima cita será el próximo fin de semana en tierras canadienses, en Toronto, donde el español ya sabe lo que es ganar.

Få svenska poliser har upplevt lika många katastrofer på nära håll som Lars Bröms – Estonia, Stureplansmorden, tsunamin och terrordådet på Drottninggatan. I dag är han insatschef för polisens DVI-enhet: Disaster Victim Identification. Deras uppgift är att identifiera okända dödsoffer efter katastrofer – och att återföra kropparna till sina anhöriga för ett värdigt farväl. Nu senast så ledde han identifieringsarbetet efter skolskjutningen på Risbergska i Örebro. Han beskriver det som den värsta brottsplatsen i sin 37 år långa poliskarriär.

Join "Dance Talk” ® with Joanne Carey and special guest Cristina KrigolsonIn this episode of "Dance Talk” ® with Joanne Carey, host Joanne Carey speaks with Christina Krigolson about her journey from competition dancing to a professional ballet career . Cristina candidly shares her experiences from starting out in the ballet world, dealing with injury, making the transition to a different career and then the challenges of leaving the ballet world, that lead her to the launch of her successful online ballet coaching business, Face the Barre. They discuss the importance of positive teaching methods, mental health awareness in the dance community, and the significance of cherishing moments in the dance journey. Clearly both ladies LOVE ballet and all it offers!Christina Krigolson: graduated from Tallinn Ballet School in 2011 and joined the Estonian National Ballet where she danced until 2023. After retiring early, she tried her hand at something completely different— working in the real estate sector. At the same time, she was teaching company classes for the dancers of the Estonian National Ballet and quickly realized that the world of real estate wasn't for her. Through giving those company classes, Cristina discovered her true calling: teaching.In March 2024, Cristina launched her own online ballet coaching business, Face the Barre, which started growing rapidly about half a year later. Since then, I've taught over 100 dancers and now offer classes both online and in person in Tallinn. She is very active on all social media platforms, helping dancers of all levels and ages achieve their ballet goals. Recently becoming a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach Cristina will be able help students even further. December 2025, Cristina will be opening up her own ballet studio in Tallinn, Estonia.

It's a throwback audio episode with Brendan using his Airpods after finding himself in a travel delay. Nevertheless, Andy is on cloud nine over on Westy Island after Lee Westwood qualified for this month's Open Championship at Royal Portrush. The two reminisce about Westy's t-4 performance and stand-up morals at the 2019 Open before running through the rest of the 2025 qualifiers from overseas. They are particularly chuffed by Richard Teder, a 20-year-old from Estonia who holed out for eagle in a playoff to secure his spot at Portrush. Andy wonders if Dick Teder is the first player in a new generation of golfers - the Rory (Sabbatini) generation. LIV's 2026 schedule was leaked and the league won't make a stop in the United States until mid-May. Brendan and Andy run through the dates and the travel plans needed to play at majors throughout the world, such as going from Spain to Shinnecock Hills for the U.S. Open. From there, it's time for some lock-hammer-fire picks for the John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run. The "Champion House" is back and is sure to be catnip for the entirety of the week. It's the strongest field in tournament history and there's no better example of that than Rickie Fowler returning to the Quad Cities for the first time since 2010. Andy shares a little 2010 time capsule to contextualize how long its been since Rickie played the Deere and gets Brendan to sing along to some Ke$ha on a Tuesday afternoon. In news, Adam Schupak reported that numerous PGA Tour legends are unhappy that they've been cut out of the new equity program coming as part of the PGA Tour Enterprises company. 36 former players will receive money based on a "career points" system that prioritized PGA Tour wins and starts, leaving European stars like Tony Jacklin and Nick Faldo on the outside looking in. They are, predictably, unhappy and voiced their displeasure to Golfweek, leading to a lengthy discussion from Andy and Brendan. Tune in to CBS Sports Network at Noon ET on Wednesday, July 2, for the Team Europe Wheel of Mules on "Eye on Golf with The Shotgun Start."
This Nordic Asia Podcast episode explores how Estonia and Japan, two countries under demographic pressure with different immigration histories, are managing the integration of foreign labour. Despite Estonia's EU membership and Japan's more recent policy shifts, both nations face labour shortages due to rapidly ageing populations. Estonia maintains a controlled but gradually liberalised immigration policy, while Japan has adopted Technical Intern Training Program (TITP). The system that will be replaced in coming years with a new program aiming for better job mobility and stronger language requirements. A key theme throughout is the role of language as a structural barrier. In both countries, immigrants' language proficiency remains low: only 11% achieve fluency in Estonian, while Japan's pre-arrival language training often falls short of workplace demands. This barrier limits not only job mobility, but also social integration and emotional well-being. The dominance of local languages in workplace culture fosters exclusion, even when basic communication in English or Japanese is possible. Support systems also diverge. Estonia offers spouse integration programs and community-based language initiatives, whereas Japan restricts family migration under most visa categories. The discussion emphasises that language barriers are not simply logistical, they are also deeply embedded in social expectations and everyday interaction. In sum, while Estonia and Japan face similar demographic challenges, their tools, legal frameworks, and cultural attitudes toward foreign labour differ sharply. Estonia's EU-aligned policies and family-inclusive approach may offer valuable lessons to Japan. Conversely, Estonia could learn from Japan's structured pre-arrival preparation programs to improve early-stage immigrant adaptation. Ultimately, the episode argues that integration is not just a matter of policy, it is a broader societal test of inclusivity and resilience. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1084: Today we unpack the Senate's plan to fast-track the end of EV tax credits, the global rush to secure rare earth magnet supply, and how small business owners are battling a new wave of AI-powered scams.Show Notes with links:Congress is fast-tracking the elimination of federal EV tax credits, creating waves across the auto retail and manufacturing sectors. A new Senate bill proposes ending both new and used EV credits by September 30, 2025.The Senate plan accelerates the credit phaseout, bypassing both House and prior Senate timelines.Lucid's CEO warns the change “would make it very difficult for new players in the market.”The bill also ends penalties for CAFE standard noncompliance, easing burdens on legacy automakers.Dealers are concerned; roughly 140,000 EVs sit on lots.NADA:“If EV tax credits are going to be repealed, NADA urges Congress to include a reasonable transition period.”China's latest export restrictions have flipped the rare earths market on its head—sending automakers scrambling for alternatives and giving non-China suppliers the spotlight.After Beijing tightened exports of key magnet materials in April, Western buyers are now urgently securing non-Chinese supply chains.Neo Performance Materials in Estonia has seen surging demand at a $10–$30/kg premium for non-China magnets.Korean and European firms are also investing in alternative sources, even paying 15–30% more to ensure supply.Industry insiders warn that premiums too high could kill demand; too low, and new suppliers can't survive.“Customers understand there is a premium… but if that premium gets too big, we're looking at demand destruction,” said Neo CEO Rahim Suleman.Small business owners are facing an alarming new wave of fraud—fueled by generative AI. With tools like ChatGPT and deepfake video tech, scammers can now clone brands, replicate storefronts, and impersonate real people—all with little to no technical skill.One scam targeted knife seller Oishya with a fake giveaway campaign, sending fraudulent offers to 10,000 Instagram followers and duping nearly 100 customers out of shipping fees.A recruiter shared how applicants now use AI avatars to cheat video calls, forcing her to ask for ID and personal questions to confirm they're real.In another case, an engineering firm lost $25 million after an employee was tricked by AI-generated video replicas of his coworkers, including the CFO.“It's like whack-a-mole, but the moles are multiplying,” said one cybersecurity executive.“Doing business online gets more necessary and high risk every year,” said Nima Etemadi of Cake Life Shop. “AI is just part of that.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode, we talk with Mexican filmmaker and animator Andrea Gudiño about her video Anima Natura, featured as part of Projected Ecologies in the exhibition Pulsar at MUCA Campus in Mexico City. We discuss embodied animism, learning from winter, what it means to animate with humility, and how writing, darkness, and disappearing landscapes shape her process. Andrea shares how her time in Estonia transformed her practice, why she considers Anima Natura both a confession and a beginning, and how she hopes to grow the project through workshops and co-creation around the world.Andrea Gudiño is an Independent mexican director, animator and photographer. Her work is based on the experimentation of mixed animation techniques and documentary. She was part of the 14° Berlinale Talents Guadalajara and recently finished a Master degree in Animation at the Estonian Academy of Arts supported by the Scholarship FONCA-CONAHCYT : Creators of the future.https://www.instagram.com/andreaaagu/https://www.instagram.com/anima__natura/https://muca.unam.mx/pulsar.htmlhttps://www.lydianstater.co/projected-ecologieshttps://www.elisagutierrezeriksen.com/
In this episode, I sit down with myself—solo again—checking in from Tallinn, Estonia. I share thoughts on growing up, parenting, and why competition might be one of the best teachers. I start by reflecting on a birthday message from friends and how Little League Baseball shaped the way I think about determination, toughness and the need to prove something—even at age 6.Then I get into heavier stuff—the recent Iran-Israel conflict and what it says about leadership, media narratives, and military strategy. I walk through some of today's headlines, talk about Trump's approach to foreign policy, and share thoughts on the kind of strength that doesn't always show up in headlines, but it matters.
A new era of defence readiness.James Copnall, presenter of the BBC's Newsday speaks to Andrius Kubilius, EU Commissioner for Defence and Space, about the need for Europe to be able to defend itself.In an interview recorded before the Nato summit on 24/25 June 2025, Mr Kubilius, a former Prime Minister of Lithuania, says peace in Europe cannot be taken for granted and that Europe can no longer rely on American military backing. Therefore, defence readiness must be a priority, meaning increased spending commitments from Nato members, and a unified, quick and clear approach across Europe to building defence capabilities. This, he believes, is the only way to deter the threat of further Russian aggression.But some Nato member states may struggle to meet the proposed increased spending target of 3.5% of GDP on defence. A few still haven't met the current goal of 2%, set more than a decade ago. However, other European nations are already boosting spending to 5% including countries living in close proximity to Russia, such as Poland, Estonia and Lithuania. Overall, Europe still only accounts for 30% of Nato's total military spending, a figure that has prompted US President Trump to demand a much greater contribution from European members.Thank you to the Newsday team for their help in making this programme.
