What if AI could strengthen democracy instead of concentrating power?In this episode of Ethics and Innovation by Oxford+ brought to you by Equinox, host Susannah de Jager speaks with Audrey Tang, Taiwan's Cyber Ambassador and former Digital Minister, about civic AI, digital democracy and the practical alternatives to extractive big tech models. Audrey explains why data should be treated as soil, not oil, and how smaller, community-shaped models can serve families, cities and nations without forcing everyone into a single technological dependency.The conversation moves from Taiwan's pandemic response to deepfake fraud, social media portability, local Kami models and the 6-Pack of Care, offering a hopeful but grounded vision for AI governance. Recent reporting on Taiwan's anti-fraud work shows why this matters now: Audrey has said Taiwan's civic AI approach helped reduce deepfake scams by more than 94%, as reported by MIT Solve.For policymakers, founders and citizens, this episode asks a practical question: how do we design AI systems that increase participation, transparency and trust, rather than deepening dependency, polarisation and surveillance?(00:00) - Welcome to Oxford+ (01:13) - Audrey Tang's Role in Taiwan and Oxford (03:16) - Data as Soil, Not Oil (05:14) - Replacing Rage Algorithms with Consensus (09:10) - Community Notes and Commercial Bridge-Building (13:00) - Singleton Models, Kami and Local AI (17:19) - Sovereign Models and Technology Dependency (22:29) - Building Trust Around Public Data (27:34) - Transparency, Data Altruism and Shared Purpose (31:16) - The 6-Pack of Care (33:45) - Barriers to Civic AI Adoption (36:58) - Rewilding the Web Audrey Tang: Audrey Tang is Taiwan's Cyber Ambassador, Taiwan's first Digital Minister from 2016 to 2024, and a Senior Accelerator Fellow at the Oxford Institute for Ethics in AI.

Siap-siap! Jalan Joglo Raya Ditutup, Arus Dialihkan Hingga 5 Oktober 2026.Pemkot Jakarta Barat mulai membangun saluran air di Jalan Joglo Raya. Arus lalu lintas dialihkan selama proyek hingga 5 Oktober 2026 demi mengatasi banjir.Siap-siap bagi warga Tangerang maupun Jakarta Barat yang setiap hari melintasi Jalan Joglo Raya. Pemerintah Kota Jakarta Barat memberlakukan rekayasa lalu lintas menyusul dimulainya proyek pembangunan saluran drainase di Jalan Joglo Raya. Ruas jalan sepanjang sekitar 800 meter ditutup dan arus kendaraan dialihkan hingga proyek ditargetkan rampung pada 5 Oktober 2026.Jalan Raya Joglo dikenal sebagai salah satu ruas jalan dengan volume kendaraan yang tinggi karena menghubungkan kawasan Tangerang dengan Jakarta Barat, Jakarta Selatan hingga Jakarta Pusat. Arus lalu lintas di jalur ini hampir setiap hari dipadati kendaraan, terutama pada jam berangkat kerja di pagi hari dan jam pulang kerja pada sore hingga malam. Kondisi tersebut membuat rekayasa lalu lintas akibat proyek pembangunan drainase diperkirakan akan berdampak pada mobilitas ribuan pengguna jalan.Pelaksana Lapangan Proyek, Pinto Riantoro, mengatakan pembangunan saluran air dimulai Sabtu (18/7/2026) sebagai tindak lanjut atas aspirasi masyarakat yang disampaikan melalui Musyawarah Perencanaan Pembangunan (Musrenbang). Proyek tersebut bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas drainase guna mengurangi persoalan genangan di kawasan Joglo."Kami membuat pembangunan saluran air yang merupakan aspirasi masyarakat sekitar. Memang dampaknya cukup terasa sehingga kami mohon maaf kepada masyarakat yang melintas maupun warga yang sehari-hari menggunakan Jalan Joglo Raya," kata Pinto Riantoro dalam wawancara di Radio Elshinta, Sabtu (18/7/2026).Menurut Pinto, selama proses pengerjaan, arus kendaraan dari arah Ciledug menuju Joglo dialihkan melalui Jalan Basoka Raya, kemudian berbelok ke Jalan Strategi sebelum kembali ke Jalan Joglo Raya.Sementara kendaraan dari arah sebaliknya juga diarahkan melalui jalur alternatif yang sama sehingga tidak melintasi lokasi pekerjaan."Kami melakukan pengalihan arus melalui Jalan Basoka Raya, kemudian masuk ke Jalan Strategi dan kembali lagi ke Jalan Joglo Raya. Jalur alternatif ini sudah kami siapkan agar masyarakat tetap bisa melanjutkan perjalanan," ujarnya.Pinto menjelaskan, lokasi pembangunan berada di sekitar Jembatan Yadika (SMA Yadika 5), salah satu titik yang selama ini menjadi simpul lalu lintas di kawasan Joglo. Ia mengatakan proyek kali ini bukan sekadar memperbaiki saluran lama, tetapi juga membangun jalur drainase baru karena saluran yang sudah ada tidak lagi memungkinkan untuk diperbesar."Sebagian kami membuat jalur baru karena saluran yang sudah ada tidak memungkinkan lagi untuk digali. Akhirnya drainase dialihkan ke tengah jalan sehingga memang harus dilakukan penggalian di badan jalan," jelasnya.Akibat pekerjaan tersebut, ruas jalan yang menjadi lokasi proyek harus ditutup sepenuhnya demi menjaga keselamatan pengguna jalan."Jalan harus benar-benar steril. Ini demi keselamatan pengguna jalan karena pengerjaan dilakukan di tengah badan jalan," tegas Pinto. (Nak) @DKIJakarta

Di tengah meningkatnya mobilitas masyarakat dan pesatnya perkembangan teknologi digital, BPJS Kesehatan terus menghadirkan inovasi layanan untuk mempermudah akses peserta tanpa harus datang langsung ke kantor. Salah satu layanan yang kini menjadi andalan adalah Pelayanan Administrasi melalui WhatsApp atau Fitur Pandawa. Layanan digital ini memungkinkan peserta mengakses berbagai kebutuhan administrasi, informasi, hingga pengaduan secara praktis selama 24 jam. Bagaimana layanan Pandawa ini dan fitur apa saja di dalamnya? Kami akan membahas selengkapnya bersama Kepala Bagian Pelayanan Peserta // Susilo Budi IswatiTALK 15.05Memasuki masa awal tahun ajaran 2026/2027, sejumlah sekolah negeri di Indonesia minim mendapatkan murid baru. Sebanyak 22 Sekolah Dasar (SD) Negeri di Kota Semarang tercatat belum mampu memenuhi kuota peserta didik baru pada Sistem Penerimaan Murid Baru (SPMB) 2026/2027. Bahkan, beberapa sekolah hanya memperoleh kurang dari 10 siswa baru. Pemerintah Kota Semarang memetakan sejumlah faktor yang menyebabkan minimnya peminat di sekolah negeri. Salah satu penyebab utama adalah kualitas sarana dan prasarana yang dinilai belum mampu bersaing dengan sekolah swasta. Salah satunya di SDN Purwoyoso 01 di Kota Semarang, Jawa Tengah (Jateng). Pada awal tahun ajaran ini, sekolah negeri itu hanya menerima setidaknya tiga murid baru di kelas 1. Faktor yang diduga membuat minimnya murid baru di sekolah tersebut adalah kondisi demografis sekitar yang memengaruhi Sistem Penerimaan Murid Baru (SPMB), termasuk sistem domisili (zonasi). Apakah faktor zonasi memengaruhi atau ada faktor lain seperti ketimpangan fasilitas antara negeri dan swasta?NS: Pengamat pendidikan UPGRIS Semarang, Ngasbun Egar

This episode we are taking a quick break from our overall story of Uno no Sarara (aka Jito Tenno) and we are focusing on Ise Shrine and Amaterasu, the Sun Goddess. There is a lot, for a bit more, check out our podcast blogpost at:  https://sengokudaimyo.com/podcast/episode-153   Rough Transcript Welcome to Sengoku Daimyo's Chronicles of Japan.  My name is Joshua, and this is Episode 153:  Ise and the Sun Goddess.   In the newly built hall of the Fujiwara Palace, the nobles of the court were gathered for a grand banquet.  Snow-white walls were off-set by bright crimson pillars and trim, highlighted by bright green windows.   The nobles themselves were a rainbow of colors, arranged as they were by rank.   At the head of it all, on a dais, sat the Queen herself, Uno no Sarara.  However, the attention was no longer on her.  Instead, it was on another figure, standing in front of the assembled audience.  A quiet spread throughout the hall, the court listening as Hieda no Are began to tell the story of the Sun Goddess in the Plain of High Heaven.  They listened to the story of her and Susano'o, and of the backward flayed horse.  They heard the tale of the Heavenly Rock Cave, and of all that came after, including the sending of the August Grandchild, Ninigi.  They listened to the story—the story of Yamato.   Last episode, we talked in more detail about Uno No Sarara—starting from her early years as the daughter of Naka no Ohoe, granddaughter of Soga no Kurayamada, and child-bride to her uncle, Ohoama.  I'll admit we didn't look too hard at that last bit, and I don't have enough information to confirm what exactly "marriage" entailed in that context, but it is still something that I find tremendously creepy and, unfortunately, anything but unique.  So I'm not going to dive too much further into it right now but… ew. We talked about how she gave birth to her son, Kusakabe, in Kyushu, during the war on the continent, and how she eventually left for Yoshino with her husband when he retired from court, presumably to outsmart his court rivals, who were positioning him to be taken out.  She also is said to have played a part in the planning and execution of the resulting Jinshin no Ran, later helping her husband govern the realm.  And now, she was on the throne, overseeing the completion of many of the projects started in the reign of her husband.  This included the completion of the Kiyomihara code, the Fujiwara palace, and the support given to the institution of Ise Grand Shrine. This episode, I want to dive into that last topic: the emphasis in Uno no Sarara's reign on  Ise Shrine and its focus, the Great God, Amaterasu no Ohokami.  Although the Chronicles talk about Amaterasu as one of the founding deities of the Yamato royal line, there is plenty of evidence that this story was grafted into the tales at a later date, and that worship of Amaterasu, at least as anything more than a minor deity, likely also started relatively late.  Some have even suggested that Ise Shrine itself wasn't even built until the late 7th century.  So, all of this focus on Ise and Amaterasu appears to be part of the larger effort to structure the physical, cultural, and spiritual landscape of the new Yamato state. Last episode we mentioned how, according to the Nihon Shoki,   Ohoama turned to worship towards Ise.  Well, specifically, he worshipped Amaterasu Ohokami.  So let's take a moment and talk about what we know of the history of this Great God of Heavenly Brightness. Unfortunately, most of that history is based on what we know of the kami from works like the Nihon Shoki, the Kojiki, and the Sendai Kuji Hongi, all of which came out in the 8th century or so.  As such, it can be hard to know what things were actually like, earlier on, as opposed to what was added or removed later. Much of what I'm going to be talking about, today, I'm going to be pulling from a book written in 2017 by Mark Teeuvwen [Tayvin?] and John Breen titled "A Social History of the Ise Shrines", as well as Michael Como's work "Weaving and Binding: Immigrant Gods and Female Immortals in Ancient Japan", published in 2009, along with other sources.  In their book, Breen and Teeuwen point out that for those who do not take the events of the Nihon Shoki and Kojiki at face value, there are two primary theories for the origin of the worship of Amaterasu: an early theory and  a late theory.  The early theory places the development of the worship of Amaterasu in the 5th and 6th centuries, during the reigns of such figures as Wakatakeru no Ohokimi, aka Yuuryaku Tennou.  The Late Theory places the development in the 7th century, largely at the feet of such figures as Ohoama and Uno no Sarara herself.  We'll take a look at the evidence and see what it says. I would note that compared to the official history, both of these would be very late theories.  According to Ise Grand Shrine even today, Amaterasu arrived in Ise in the 26th year of Ikume Iribiko, aka Suinin Tennou, as stated in the Nihon Shoki, which corresponds to 4 BCE if you take the dating of the Nihon Shoki to be accurate. Of course, we've already spent plenty of time talking about the problems with the Nihon Shoki prior to the 6th century CE, as well as how the political nature of the text affected what it contained. So to kick things off, let's address the biggest question of all: why don't we believe that Amaterasu no Ohokami was always the primary deity of the pantheon of Yamato, at the very least, if not all of the Wa people of the archipelago?  After all, isn't she a sun goddess, and isn't sun worship fairly well documented among the ancient Japanese?  Just take a look at words like "Hiko" and "Hime", referring to rulers as sun man and sun woman.  Also note that early on, worship seems to have centered around places such as mountaintops, which focused worship towards the sky and the highest point.  In fact, as wet rice paddy agriculture became the dominant economic factor driving the engine of the archipelago in the Yayoi and early kofun period, early shrines were very likely about bringing the spirit of the mountain from the mountaintop and giving them a home amongst the rice fields.. And then we have the stories.  Don't the ancient stories all tell about Amaterasu as the ruler of Takama no Hara, the Heavenly Plain?  And isn't it her grandchild that then descends to the earth to pacify the Land of the Reed Plains—aka the Japanese archipelago? Well let's take a look at those same stories, which we've covered in earlier episodes of the podcast.  The first deities mentioned in the Chronicles are deities like Ama no Minaka Nushi, Lord of the August Middle of Heaven; Takami Musubi, High August Growth; and Kami Musubi, Divine August Growth.  There are other deities, like Kuni Toko Tachi, but they are barely mentioned again. Later we get Izanagi and Izanami, the masculine and feminine, who create the world and give birth to numerous deities from that point on.  Among the children of Izanagi are said to be Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi, and Susano'o.  Amaterasu, Heaven's Brightness, represents the sun while Tsukiyomi represents the dark of the moon.  Susano'o is then the god of the storms and seas, and was sent to the Nether Land, the Ne no Kuni. Right away we see that there are numerous different stories listed in the Nihon Shoki for just about everything.  Only the Kojiki gives everything as a single, coherent narrative, but surely the readers in the 8th century would have known some of these other stories, and thus the Nihon Shoki gives the alternates as well. Now the main narrative of the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki tells us that Ama-terasu no Oho-kami was born to rule over everything.  In the Nihon Shoki, Izanagi and Izanami specifically mention that divine destiny in Amaterasu's creation—although actually, in that part of the text, the deity they are creating is named Oho-hiru-me no Muchi; the Great Sun Female Holder.  And in the next entry they call Amaterasu: Ama-terasu Oho-hiru-me.  Tsukiyomi, the deity of the moon, is made to be her consort, and they are supposedly sent to rule the plain of Heaven, Takama no Hara. The problem is that there are other entries that suggest that Takama no Hara already had a ruler:  Taka-mi-Musubi.  Reading the sections on Taka-mi-Musubi, we see a deity who is said to have produced 1500 children, himself—no mention of Izanagi and Izanami.  Some of his children are mentioned as Omohi-kane:  the Thought-Combining deity, and Sukuna-bikona: the Little-Prince-Named deity. Amatsu Hiko Hiko Ho Ninigi no Mikoto, the August Heavenly Prince, Prince Ho-ninigi, is not just a grandson of Amaterasu no Ohokami, but also a grandchild of Taka-mi Musubi.  In at least one story, Takami Musubi is the one who wants Ninigi no Mikoto to become the ruler of the Central Land of the Reed Plains.  Towards that end, he gathers the various kami and chooses someone to go down and prepare the way—Ama-ho-hi no Mikoto—who was to quote-unquote "expel and subdue" the evil gods of that land.  We covered this story in episode 21 and 22.  When that doesn't work, he gathers them again, sending others to try and do the same.  Eventually he sends Takemikazuchi and Futsunushi down.  All of this sounds like Taka-mi Musubi, whose name appears to refer to being the "high" deity, was the one in charge. In addition, we have the court ritual from sources like the Engi Shiki, which illustrates the deities that were invoked for the protection of the palace and the royal family.  These were:  Kami-musubi, Takami-musubi, Iku-musubi, Taru-musubi, Tamatsume-musubi, Oomiya-no-me, Oomiketsu-no-kami and Kotoshironushi.  One might notice a lot of the "musubi" names among the deities, and a distinct lack of appeal to Amaterasu.  If Amaterasu were the central deity and ancestral deity of the royal family, why is she not invoked in the rituals of the court itself? The thought, here, is that these rituals are likely much older than the worship of Amaterasu, and while Amaterasu would come to prominence in the stories that the court would tell, it was much more difficult for them to rearrange the traditional rituals to put her front and center.  Those rituals were maintained by ritualist families like the Nakatomi, and they weren't likely to change the rituals willy-nilly, even for a sovereign.  That was playing with supernatural fire, after all—if you changed the rituals, would they still even be effective?  Granted, rituals do change, so it isn't a perfect argument; perhaps it was just not considered to be important enough to make the change since it was not something that anyone except the court ritualists needed to worry themselves over.  Either way, it appears that we do have a list of deities that may have been the deities of the ruling elite prior to the rise of Amaterasu and Ise shrine more generally. We have a few other clues of what was going on in the narrative.  For instance, we see the story from the reign of Mimaki Iribiko, aka Sujin Tennou, also called the First Sovereign of Yamato, despite the legendary figures inserted prior to his reign.  It is in this chapter that we see a note that Ama-terasu no Oho-kami and Yamato no Oho-kuni-dama, which is to say the Spirit of the Country of Yamato, were both worshipped together in the hall—that is in the royal palace itself.  And yet apparently Mimaki Iribiko feared these deities residing with him in the palace, and he had their worship moved to locations outside of the palace.  Amaterasu's worship was given to Toyosuki-iri-bime, one of Mimaki Iribiko's daughters, and established in the district of Shiki, in Yamato.  Yamato no Ohokunidama, on the other hand, was given over to Nunaki-iri-bime no Mikoto, another daughter through a different wife. but we are told that she was lean, and her hair was falling out, and so she couldn't perform the rites.  Turning our attention back to Ama-terasu—in the reign of Ikume-Iribiko, aka Suinin Tennou, son and heir of Mimaki Iribiko, the worship of Ama-terasu would pass from Mimaki Iribiko's daughter, Nunaki Iri Bime to Ikume Iribiko's daughter, Yamato Hime.  She would move the worship site from Shiki to Uda, in the shadow of Mt. Miwa, and then proceed over to the upper banks, or Kawakami, of Isuzu, in the district of Watarai.  Here, in one of the alternate stories about this episode, we get the Great God of Yamato—Ohoyamato no Ohokami—speaking through a medium to warn the sovereign that he had better be careful.  Mimaki Iribiko had not been quite thorough enough in his worship, so he had not had a long life, and if Ikume Iribiko didn't do the same, he would suffer a similar fate. And so, in a record eerily similar to what we see in the previous reign, the worship of the "Great God of Yamato", the Oho-Yamato no Oho-kami, is given to Nunaki-waka-hime—as opposed to Nunaki-Iri-bime—who also fails in the task because of her emaciated body.  This also introduces Fukayu nushi, an ancestor of the Nakatomi, who was the one who divined what should be done. There is so much to unpack in these stories.  For one, the kami bring power, but also danger.  One can try to placate the kami, but it isn't like a ritual will always work, and the story is of the sovereign being actively afraid of what they might do, so they were removed from the palace.  Then there is the fact that we see two seemingly similar names—Ohoyamato no Ohokami and Yamato no Kunidama both seem like we are talking about the same spirit of Yamato, though some would point out that one is the spirit of the country and one is the great kami of the country, so, clearly different. Both are also being given to someone named "Nunaki—something-something—Hime", and in both cases Nunaki seems to fail in her task because she is apparently not hot enough for the kami.  She's described as too thin and emaciated or balding.  We aren't given the lineage of Nunaki Waka Hime, but Nunaki Iri Bime is connected with the land of Owari.  Nunaki Iri-bime is said to be the daughter of Mimaki Iribiko and Ohoama Hime, ancestor of the Owari no Muraji.  Owari was the land that supported Ohoama during the Jinshin no Ran. Finally, in both cases, we see the worship of the spirit of Yamato being given over to someone name "Nagochi", later identified as Nagochi no Sukune, ancestor of the Yamato no Atahe. One more note—closely on the heels of moving these two kami out of the palace, we see that the court brings in the worship of Oho-mono-nushi, the god of Mt. Miwa, under Ohotataneko, the ancestor of the Miwa clan. So the stories here account for Ama-terasu being moved to Watarai and why she isn't worshipped in the palace.  It also places Oho-mono-nushi at the center of worship in Yamato.  Oho-mono-nushi and Miwa continue to dominate the narrative from here on out, with a few notable exceptions, such as with Okinaga Tarashi Hime, aka Jingu Tennou and her mythical conquest of the Korean peninsula.  I'm sure that had no political implications at all given everything that had happened with Baekje, Silla, and the Tang dynasty in the latter half of the 7th century.  Other than scenes like that, however, the Miwa clan and worship of the Miwa deity appear frequently in the narrative.  It is clear that Mt. Miwa, and its deity, were important, and when Breen and Teeuwen hypothesize that when Naka no Ohoe, which is to say Tenji Tennou, took the drastic step of moving the capital up to Ohotsu, in the land of Afumi, he also brought the Miwa deity with him.  Those Afumi court rituals were conducted under the auspices of the Nakatomi, and particularly the auspices of Nakatomi no Kane, who would become one of the chief opponents of Ohoama during the Jinshin no Ran in 672.  After that conflict, Ohoama and his wife, Uno no Sarara, were building new traditions using Ise and constructing new legends.  Legends that would be under their control and influence and which would further bolster their rule from the city that they had designed to fit inside of this newly constructed cosmological framework. And yet this also brings up what seems like an obvious question.  If Ise Shrine and the worship of Amaterasu were so central to Ohoama and Uno's plans, then why would they put it so far away?  Proponents of the "early" theory of the development of Amaterasu and Ise Shrine suggest that the answer lies in the text of the Chronicles.  That there is some truth to the idea that there was worship in Yamato and that, for various reasons, it moved out to Watarai district early on and developed into Ise Shrine.  Those who hold to the "late" theory of development see all of those stories as later inserts meant to explain away why Ise Shrine was so far away—and perhaps why Amaterasu was not included in the cool-kami club of court ritual.   Teeuwen and Breen mention a few of the theories, from Naoki Koujiro stressing Ise as a strategic gateway between Yamato and Eastern Japan to Tanaka Takashi proposing that the movement of Amaterasu to Ise is actually a stand-in for one or more military campaigns to that area to bring it under Yamato control. And before we move too much further in the narrative, let's talk about how Ise is physically and geographically situated.  Ise is part of modern Mie prefecture, on the eastern edge of the Ki peninsula.  It is at the southern end of a series of adjoining alluvial plains that follow the coastline north to the modern prefectures of Aichi and Gifu—the ancient provinces of Owari and Mino.  The capital of Ise Province used to be in Suzuka, near the the two Tsubaki shrines which both lay claim to the title of Ise no Ichinomiya, the First shrine of the land of Ise, and the pass that served as one of three major routes from eastern Japan into the Home Provinces and beyond.  This puts Ise about as far away as you can get from the capital of the province without going over the mountains, themselves.  It also puts it a good deal south of most major travel routes.  If you are going to Ise shrine then it is pretty clear you were going to Ise shrine, as there isn't a lot of evidence for anything else in the area. The Shrine itself is actually made up of two primary shrine complexes.  There is the Naiku, the inner shrine, and the Geku, or outer shrine.  The Naiku, or inner shrine, is probably the area most people think about.  It is at the foot of the mountains where the Shimamichi River joins the Isuzu River and both flow out of the mountains.  The Naiku contains the shrine to Amaterasu no Ohokami, and is famous for its layout, where there are actually two shrine enclosures, one next to the other.  The main shrine is then rebuilt in the empty enclosure every 20 years, at which point the worship is moved to the new shrine, the old shrine is torn down, and the cycle is started once again. The Outer Shrine, or Geku, is further north, and probably not as well known to foreigners.  The Geku is said to enshrine the spirit of Toyouke-bime, a kami dedicated to food.  According to the traditions of the Geku itself, Toyouke-bime was enshrined in the Geku at the command of Wakatakiru no Ohokimi, aka Yuuryaku Tennou, based on a dream. Regarding the history of why the Shrines—both Inner and Outer—are located here, archaeological evidence doesn't give us a lot to suggest that these might be the case.  Despite the presence of the Miya River near Ise Shrine, we haven't found evidence of a large harbor or port, like we might expect if it was the jumping off point for crossing Ise Bay—or even the center of another large polity.  Instead, the areas to the north—around Fujikata and Matokata inlets, for instance—show much more evidence of occupation and, presumably, use.  Heck, the modern district of Fujikata is in the town of "Tsu", which literally means "port".  And the capital area of Suzuaka and the Ichinomiya of Tsubaki Grand Shrine is even farther north, still.  So who, if anybody, was living down in the area of Ise Shrine?  If we look at the progression of tomb mounds in the area in previous centuries, we see that they start in the Matokata region in the 5th century and work their way down towards the south, with late 5th century tombs found in the district of Taki, the district bordering on Watarai and modern Ise City to the northwest.  It is also where you can find the Saikuu, the site of the old purification palace for the Shrine Princesses.  Grave goods seem to show close ties with Yamato, in the Nara basin.  While the tombs expanded to the south through the 5th century, they appear to have stopped altogether in the 6th century—or at least we haven't found any.  This may indicate that the political situation had changed and there was no group in the area that could organize the labor for such an undertaking.  Whether that was because Yamato was taking it as corvee labor or just that population had dwindled due to war, famine, or something else, I don't know that we could say. Around the year 600, at the opening of the 7th century, we do see a large grave mound erected in the core area of what would later become Ise Shrine, on the east side of the Miya River, overlooking what would become the Geku, the Outer Shrine of the Ise complex.  For those who aren't aware, Ise Grand Shrine is a large complex of shrines, and it is divided into two main areas.  The "inner shrine", or Naiku, is where most people go, and it is the site of the famous shrine building that is supposed to be rebuilt every 20 years.  The Geku is the "outer shrine" complex, technically dedicated to Toyouke hime, a kami of agriculture.  The kofun overlooking the outer shrine is known as the Takakurayama kofun.  This is a round kofun, about 35 to 40 meters in diameter, with a horizontal stone chamber.  It is the largest in the Ise region.  It has been mentioned in records going back to at least the Kamakura era, and even though most of the grave goods are gone, there is evidence that it was richly appointed.  Given its shape and location, there were even those in later centuries who connected it with the Heavenly Rock Cave in which Amaterasu hid according to the ancient stories. The fact that there was nothing around this area and suddenly we see a giant tomb mound is pretty puzzling.  Why was it built here?  Is it connected to the founding of the Outer Shrine in some way, or is that just coincidental?  Teeuwen and Breen point out that it is pretty rare for a large tomb mound to be build in the precincts of an active shrine, which suggests that whatever was happening there, that area was not part of the shrine grounds.  That said, I have to wonder if the ritual worship at the kofun might not have later been transformed or coopted into something else.  There also is no other indication that the Outer Shrine area was used for ritual purposes any earlier than the kofun would have been built.  In contrast, around the Inner Shrine area, several kilometers away, there are caches of beads dated to the 5th, 6th, and 7th centuries in a small valley where a brook runs down from Mt. Asama, not too far from the current shrine complex.  Teeuwen and Breen suggest that this may relate to the "upper reaches of the Isuzu River", mentioned in the Chronicles, and that it may have had to do with rituals related to water supply—hence being found at the point where the water was coming down from the mountains.  And yet, despite these finds, there really aren't any large scale archaeological remains that have been discovered east of the Miya river, though there are modest signs of dwelling and habitation, and some minor burials mounds. Compare this to Tsubaki shrine, the home of Saruta Hiko no Kami, and the main shrine of Ise, situated in the ancient capital of Ise no Kuni.  Downstream from there are numerous tomb mounds and indications of habitation.  So this was probably the center for early sun worship in the region. Teeuwen and Breen conclude that all of this indicates that the region of Taki and areas east of the Miya river were probably more of an outpost—no major powerful chieftains or large polity had set up in the region.  In the late 6th century, some power had to move in to build Takakurayama kofun, but that was an outlier.  Maybe this area just largely fell under Yamato hegemony.  And perhaps that was the key.  Perhaps initially this wasn't a place to center power and authority, but rather it was more like a prison.  It was a place far away from the court, where a deity that was more of a threat could be kept away from the palace and the sovereign.  Perhaps Amaterasu, or whoever the kami was at the time, was placed out here because of the threat they posed, much as the Chronicle seems to suggest—just not necessarily at the time that is suggested. One of the aspects of the mythmaking that we see in the Chronicles appears to be the stress on the Amatsu kami and Kunitsu Kami—the Heavenly deities and the Earthly deities.  The Heavenly deities are those in Takama no Hara, and they are the progenitors of the royal line.  On the other hand are the earthly kami, the Kunitsu Kami, those dwelling on the earthly plane.  In the stories that were recorded in the Nihon Shoki, before the August Grandchild of Takami Musubi and Ama Terasu descended to take control of the Central Land of the Reed Plain, they sent down heavenly kami as warriors to subdue the earthly kami.  On the one hand, this may have been driven by some kind of deep memory of early conquests of the archipelago by various forces.  However, these legends also served another purpose, in that they set up the royal family's right to rule, and appear to establish a de facto hierarchy between those families descended from the Heavenly Kami and those descended from the earthly Kami. Another thing that Teeuwen and Breen point out and that is that Amaterasu is not necessarily a female deity, to start with.  In fact, Amaterasu was probably easily overlain atop the worship of Oho-mono-nushi of Mt. Miwa, at least early on.  To that point, they note stories where Oho-mono-nushi and other deities were commonly depicted as arrows, snakes, or similarly phallic imagery finding or even penetrating women who were thought to have a connection with them.   This suggests a context of these priestesses being married to the kami, and even fits in with early descriptions of individuals like the famous Queen Himiko being a spiritual leader as well as a political one.  If the original Amaterasu was conceived of as a male deity, then this could also explain the tradition of the Saigu, the consecrated shrine princess.  We only see a few royal princesses designated to the position up to this point in the narrative, and, beyond Tokosuki Iri bime and Yamato hime, we don't necessarily learn much more.  One wonders if there weren't other royal princesses likewise sent elsewhere to serve other deities.  We know about Nunaki Iri Hime, and presumably Nunaki Waka Hime.  There was also Yamato Totohi Momoso Hime, who was married to Oho-mono-nushi.  Presumably there were others who just never ended up in the stories that were passed down. The idea of a kami taking a "wife" and connecting that to the idea of women holding these priestly positions seems to fall in line with much of what we see, though, as I said, we only hear occasionally about the appointment of royal princesses to the position until the reign of Ohoama.  That's when we see specifics about appointments, the purification palace in Hase, and other arrangements.  It makes you wonder more than a little bit if Royal Princess Ohoku was, perhaps, the first royal princess to actually be appointed.  It would have been easy enough to add in previous "shrine princesses" into the lineage, especially far enough back that nobody could really fact check it.  We also see Royal Princess Taki journey to Ise with her companions, Princess Yamashiro no Hime and Lady Ishikawa. It is intriguing that this practice was temporarily interrupted during the reign of Uno no Sarara, as I mentioned last episode.  Could this have something to do with a female ruler on the throne and a corresponding lack of urgency about having a female representative at Ise? And in stories about Amaterasu, she is frequently shown with certain masculine qualities.  When she confronts her younger brother, Susano'wo, she is concerned that he might try to take her authority from her, so she meets him decked out in armor, her hair tied up in a typical male fashion, with a bow, ready for a fight.  It would be just as easy to imagine that Amaterasu and Susano'wo were brothers, contending over rulership.  Add to all of that the idea that kami were often personifications of various natural phenomena or ideas, and Japanese is not a naturally gendered language, and there are those that believe that the stories of Amaterasu were not necessarily about a female deity in the beginning, but a male deity, similar to Ohomono Nushi and others, who then took on a feminine persona.  On the other hand there are passages in the old stories recounted in the Chronicles that clearly make Amaterasu out to be a woman. To start with the activities she is associated with, such as weaving, are often associated with women as something they do in the home.  This is a tradition carried over from the continent, along with silk and the techniques to weave it.  In the lands where silk production started, there are silkworm goddesses and the gendered nature of silk production and weaving appears to have come over to Japan as well.  There is also the fact that Amaterasu is said to have another name:  Oho-hiru-me no muchi.  In this case, it would seem to mean something like Great Noontime Female Possessor.  And in the weaving hall it is sometimes Amaterasu that is weaving and sometimes Waka Hirume.  "Hirume" certainly feels like a feminine name. There is the distinct possibility that the stories of Amaterasu as recorded were actually about two or more different kami, so Amaterasu and Ohohirume could have been separate deities having to do with the sun that were rolled into a single kami.  As mentioned before, it is also possible that Amaterasu ended up with some stolen valor taken from the other Ise deity worshiped at Tsubaki, Saruta-hiko no Kami.   Teeuwen and Breen also note that the name "Amaterasu" is hardly unique, noting at least ten other shrines with a kami called "Amateru" or "Amaterasu", mostly in Yamato, but some as far away as Kyushu and Tsushima.  Nine of those shrines were dedicated to Ame no Hoakari, an ancestor deity of the Owari lineage who was also closely tied to metalworking.  It is worth remembering that it was Owari who helped support Ohoama during the Jinshin no Ran, and who may have even fostered Ohoama for a while when he was just a young prince.  All that to say there may have been several different traditions that were all contributing different elements to the story. And then there is the connection between Amaterasu and Uno no Sarara. Herman Ooms, in his book: "Imperial Politics and Sybmolics in Ancient Japan", notes the similarities between Amaterasu and Uno no Sarara, talking about the differences between the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki, both of which had events that mirrored Uno no Sarara's own life.  According to Ooms, "The Kojiki's Amaterasu is a transparent double of the female tennou Jitou".  He points out that Uno no Sarara, besides her posthumous title of Jitou Tennou, also had a title making reference to Takamanohara:  Takama no Hara Hirono no Hime—the Princess High-Heaven-Plain.  But beyond that, we also see other linkages between the stories.  For instance, it isn't Amaterasu's son, Ame no Oshihomimi who is given the realm, but rather her grandchild, Ninigi.  This parallels the way that Uno no Sarara's son, Kusakabe, didn't ascend to the throne, but instead Uno no Sarara was holding the seat for his son, her grandson.  So one sees how Uno no Sarara could be seen as Amaterasu, and her grandson, Prince Karu, could be seen as Ninigi, the August grandchild.  Teeuwen and Breen also note that during this same time, we see the rise of a new institution: the Jingikan.  Again, we touched on this last episode, so just a quick recap:  The Jingikan was a government organization set up specifically to oversee the shrines, rituals, ceremonies, and other such things pertaining to the kami matters.  It does not appear in the initial stand-up of the new, bureaucratic government, wherein is created the bureaus, ministries, or departments, depending on your chosen vernacular, which make up the Dajokan, the Great Council of State.  Instead, the Jingikan is a separate organization, specifically organized around kami matters. The term "Jingi" is also a shorthand for "Ama-tsu-kami, Kuni-tsu-kami", or the kami of Heaven and the Kami of the earth.  "Ama-tsu-kami", meaning Kami of Heaven, was written with two characters meaning "Heaven" and "Kami", pronounced "Tenjin".  "Kuni-tsu-kami", or the Kami of the Earth, was written as "Earth" and "Earth Spirit", which was then pronounced "Chigi".  By taking the last character of each compound Tenjin-Chigi becomes just Jingi, for short.  Throughout the Chronicles, this term, "Jingi" is thrown around when they want to quickly note all the kami, together, though sometimes it is fully written out as "Tenjin Chigi", as well.  Interestingly, "Tenjin" or "Ama tsu Kami", sometimes appears alone, especially in the chapters on the Age of the Gods.  However, "Chigi" seems to only be used in the whole phrase.  There are a few instances, however, of "Chijin" being used, but they are few. That said, the term "Jingikan", also read as "Kami Tsukasa" or even "Kan Zukasa",  doesn't appear until 690, in the reign of Uno no Sarara.  This probably means that it was part of the reforms encompassed by the Kiyomihara codes.  The head of the Jingikan is known as the Jingihaku or "Kan-zukasa no Kami".  This term actually shows up well in advance of the Jingikan itself, initially referring to an unnamed official or officials in charge of kami worship at the court.  Nakatomi no Kamatari is said to have been offered the position in the first reign of Takara, aka Kougyoku Tennou, though the first confirmed individual appears to be Nakatomi no Ohoshima, during the reign of Uno no Sarara. This appears to be a distinctly Yamato invention in the bureaucratic system.  It leverages the language and structure of the Tang dynasty, but in its own way.  There was a Tang department of shrines, but it was described differently, as befits a different spiritual environment focused on ancestor worship and Confucian and Taoist ideas.  The Jingikan system  seems to have been a deliberate re-organization of the indigenous kami worship, incorporating what was probably traditional roles into the new bureaucratic system.  In so doing, however, it also gave the court greater control, and given that this was happening at the same time as the establishment of various stories and myths around Ise and the foundation more generally, it appears to be part of a concerted and deliberate effort to construct a new narrative. All of this points to them architecting much of what was going on, from the stories to the landscape.  Ohoama likely built the inner shrine as we know it.  If it really was an obscure, out-of-the-way shrine, perhaps that also meant that there weren't any other powerful court factions that were enhanced by it.  And then, over time, the Ise shrine and the deity there could be better incorporated into the overall myths and stories that surrounded the formation of Yamato.  A new Yamato, one that would soon enough be referring to itself as the origin of the Sun:  Nippon, a name often attributed to Ohoama and Uno no Sarara, though not found in the record of their reigns in the Chronicles. Another aspect to all of this, however, is what happened immediately after Uno no Sarara's reign, and into the 8th and early 9th centuries.  In the 8th century—the Nara period—Buddhism started to merge with a lot of the local practices.  This was not uncommon.  Buddhism had been born in a land with myriad deities and styles of worship, and it had the means to incorporate local deities into its cosmological worldview.  Kami were just other beings, stuck in the cycle of rebirth, who, as sentient beings, could equally benefit from the Buddha's teachings.  They became guardians of Buddhist institutions, and the lines between shrines and temples were often blurred.  At the same time, kami worship was also taking on various concepts from continental worship, such that even today we find a lot of what we might consider Taoist practices influencing Shinto worship. Had this continued, worship of the kami may have been completely subsumed into the Buddhist ritual practices, but there were areas where kami worship remained distinct.  One of these was at Ise. Early on, there was an attempt to build a temple at Ise, but it didn't last long.  The temple was eventually moved out of the shrine complex, and then eventually it was removed altogether.  Later writings from the Shrine would include certain Buddhist terms among the things that were taboo within the shrine grounds, considering Buddhism as something of a corrupting or polluting influence.  Shrine Princeses, during their tenure, had to devote themselves to the kami, and though they might retire as nuns, later in life, during their appointment they were to be free of any Buddhist influences.  In many ways this would make Ise a prime example of what would eventually be termed "Shinto", which gave it, and the worship of Amaterasu, a certain pride of place.  Of course, it didn't hurt that it was also intertwined with the State and the founding myths of the nation.  As such, Ise Shrine and its worship would become a template for many others to follow, helping to shape what we know as "Shinto" today. There are still a lot of questions.  We don't exactly know what Uno no Sarara did on her trip to Ise Shrine, and we don't know how things surrounding the worship at Ise and of Amaterasu herself changed in the intervening years between when these events happened and when, about two to three decades later, the Chronicles were finalized and published.  Certainly some of this seems tied to the Fujiwara capital, which was no longer populated at that point, the move to Heijo-kyo, in Nara, occurring between 708 and 710, two years before the Kojiki and a decade before the Nihon Shoki would come out.  And yet, the three sacred mountains that were incorporated into the plan of the Fujiwara Capital, Mt. Kagu, Mt. Miminashi, and Mt. Unebi, seem to continue to be important.  This is especially true of  Mt. Kagu, whose heavenly counterpart, Ame no Kaguyama—literally Heavenly Mt. Kagu— continues to play a major role in the stories surrounding Amaterasu and the Heavenly Rock Cave.  In addition,Mt. Unebi is closely tied to the story of Iware-biko, aka Jimmu, conquering and settling the land—perhaps to draw attention away from the stories about Mimaki and Ikume iribiko, aka Sujin and Suinin, who were both associated more with Mt. Mimoro, aka Mt. Miwa.  So even though the physical presence was moved, by that point we know that foundation of many of these stories were likely laid down around the time that the Fujiwara capital was in operation.  What does seem clear is that, just as there were clear efforts to set up the new State government, including the new capital, the court were also taking control of other levers of power and influence.  We previously talked about how they had created National Temples and included government positions to oversee Buddhist affairs more generally.  With Ise and the creation of the Jingikan, it appears as though that trend continued with the traditional kami worship. Many of the elite families still had connections to their own shrines, with their own kami.  Through the stories collected and written down—with a few editorial additions to help place them in an approved context—they were able to construct a narrative from separate or divergent traditions.  These traditions had already accreted to themselves various stories and culture-ways, some of them with clear links to the continent and others with overlapping portfolios.  The kami, and the ability to intercede with them for their blessings or to avert their wrath, were a form of power that was being structured for the purpose of supporting the new State.  A state now under the control of one Uno no Sarara. And we don't exactly have to wonder about this… the preface of the Kojiki all but says it.  They put the words in the mouth of Ohoama, or, as they call him, the Sovereign of the Kiyomihara Palace.  But the words are pretty clear: "I hear that the Imperial Records and Ancient Writing handed down by the various houses have come to differ from the truth and that many false hoods have been added to them. If these errors are not remedied at this time, their meaning will be lost before many years have passed. This is the framework of the state, the great foundation of the imperial influence. Therefore, recording the Imperial Records and examining the Old Writings, discarding the mistaken and establishing the true, I desire to hand them on to later generations." With that, 28 year old Hieda no Are was given the command to learn all the stories and presumably to recite them for the court.  And several decades later, Oho no Yasumaro was given the task to take Are's stories and write them down.  I imagine that Hieda no Are, or perhaps someone else who had learned the stories well enough, would be called into court or banquets to present some of the stories, or would be asked questions if there was any need for precedence.  Thus creating a single source for truth, according to the administration.  At the same time, the court had a problem.  They couldn't control all of the sources of written material, with all of the various contradictions, so we also would eventually get the more comprehensive—but also less narratively direct—Nihon Shoki as well.  After all, the game of propaganda was being played at many levels, and while the royal household had their motivations—primarily to support the legitimacy of their claim to power and the system within which that claim was validated— other families wanted to ensure that they were properly recorded as having connections to traditional nexuses of power—be that the ancient kami of Heaven or Earth, or their relationship to the royal family.  This is because precedence was important, even as new traditions were being created.  Like the way that the Mononobe and the Nakatomi played important roles in Uno no Sarara's ascension ceremony despite the actual individuals using new or different names, like Isonokami or Fujiwara.  See Episode 151 for the explanation, there.  And new traditions were much easier to justify if you could connect them with older traditions—whether those older traditions were truly ancient or newly made inventions. And all of this suggests that this was not an accident and it wasn't simply being imposed from the top down.  One could be charitable and suggest that those involved felt that this got them closest to what the truth actually was, given that they had now been inculcated in a new worldview and they were trying to view the ancient stories through the interpretive lens of that worldview.  On the other hand, they were ultimately doing it to structure power and authority that favored them and the government they had created.  A government that they hoped would outlast them, and be passed on to their descendants.

What if the life you've always wanted begins with telling yourself the truth? In this episode, Kami Gray, founder of the Psychologie of Home Design School, shares the relationship that transformed every area of her life. What started as a reluctant decision to see a therapist became the beginning of a journey toward vulnerability, authenticity, and freedom from the labels she had carried for decades. Kami opens up about the stories she believed about herself, why humor became her greatest defense, and how learning to tell the truth changed the way she leads, teaches, and builds community. She also shares how that personal transformation continues to impact the women she mentors, creating ripple effects that extend far beyond business.   [00:06:30] Helping Women Believe in Themselves Many of her students are beginning second or third careers later in life. Sees confidence as the biggest obstacle most aspiring entrepreneurs face. Finds the greatest joy in watching women overcome their own limiting beliefs. Believes personal growth is just as important as professional success. [00:10:00] Success Begins Before You Feel Ready Encourages students to stop waiting until they feel qualified. Reminds them that every successful designer started as a beginner. Focuses on consistent action instead of perfection. Teaches that courage grows through experience. [00:12:00] Choosing Authenticity Over Perfection Coaches entrepreneurs to build trust by showing up as themselves. Shares how one student overcame her fear of being visible online. That decision eventually led to a multi-year luxury design project. Says authenticity consistently creates deeper connections than polished marketing. [00:19:00] The Truth That Drew People In Shifted from sharing only beautiful interiors to sharing her real life. Began talking openly about divorce, menopause, family relationships, and personal struggles. Watched genuine conversations replace surface-level engagement. Created a community where people felt safe to be honest with one another. [00:25:00] The Relationship That Changed Everything Credits her therapist, Heather, with helping her confront the stories she believed about herself. Entered therapy expecting simple conversations but was challenged by firm boundaries and uncomfortable honesty. Realized she had spent years hiding behind humor, appearance, and achievement. Began replacing self-criticism with truth, vulnerability, and self-compassion. [00:30:00] Learning to Tell the Truth Practiced recognizing when humor was masking something deeper. Started speaking more honestly with herself and the people closest to her. Discovered that authenticity strengthened some relationships while changing others. Says telling the truth became the foundation for the life she wanted to build. [00:33:00] Creating a Community Built on Vulnerability Built a design school where students formed lasting friendships and business partnerships. Fostered an environment where conversations extended beyond design into fear, purpose, and personal growth. Credits Heather's influence for helping her create a culture rooted in honesty and trust. Believes vulnerability gave others permission to become themselves. [00:35:30] The Ripple Effect of Courage Shares the story of a student whose husband initially questioned her decision to attend the school. That same student went on to build a thriving business and transform her marriage. Encourages people to protect their confidence while they're building something new. Believes one person's courage can impact countless other lives. [00:38:00] Final Thoughts Invites aspiring interior designers to explore the Psychologie of Home Design School. Also works one-on-one with entrepreneurs and young adults searching for direction. Believes entrepreneurship is a lifestyle centered on freedom, creativity, and contribution. Leaves listeners with a simple reminder: the world only gets one version of you.   KEY QUOTES "You've got to surround yourself with good people.

If you've ever lost weight, gained it back, and convinced yourself it must be a willpower problem, this episode is for you. Kamy's whole message is the opposite. Excess weight in a teen is almost never about willpower, the food itself, or how much you move. It's a symptom of something deeper that nobody has helped you name yet. Today's guest is Kamy Moussavi, founder of Step Together, an organization that helps families address the true roots of children's excess weight (which Kamy sees as emotional stress, undiagnosed ADHD patterns, family dynamics, and life overwhelm, not just food). Kami grew up overweight and spent more than two decades cycling through Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, restrictive diets, fasting, binge eating, and bulimia before he finally realized none of it was working because none of it was addressing what was actually happening underneath.   In this episode you'll hear why weight is a symptom and not the root problem, why diet and exercise alone don't break the cycle, the simple pattern recognition tool you can start using tonight, why your developing brain literally cannot do this work on its own (and what to do about that), how to have the kind of conversation with your parents that actually helps, the dopamine rerouting tools that can stand in for food when emotions hit, and why parents have to lead with role modeling instead of lecturing if anything is going to change.   Why excess weight in teens is almost never about willpower or food itself The yo yo cycle and what actually drives it underneath Why parents focusing on the food alone keeps the loop going The pattern recognition tool (catalog what happened before the ice cream, not just the ice cream) Why your frontal lobe is still developing into your mid 20s and what that means for impulse control How to ask a parent for support without making it worse Why "hold the space, don't jump to solutions" is the most powerful thing a parent or friend can do The dopamine rerouting list (touch, play, creativity, movement, social connection) Why connecting how food makes you FEEL is more powerful than counting calories Why a strong "why" matters more than any meal plan How a parent role modeling new habits rewires what their teen absorbs at home   Parents: This is one of the most important episodes for any parent of a teen who is struggling with their weight, with restrictive eating, with binge eating, or with the sense that food has quietly become bigger than it should be. Kamy's central message is one that almost every weight focused program misses: the focus should not be on your child at all, it should be on what the home environment and the emotional ecosystem are teaching them. He shares specific ways to role model the behavior you want to see, hold space when your teen is struggling, and become the parent your teen comes to instead of the parent your teen hides from. Listen with your teen if you can.   Heads up before you dive in: This episode talks openly about excess weight, binge eating, bulimia, restrictive dieting, weight shame, and the emotional roots underneath all of it. If any of this feels heavy for you right now, please take care of yourself and come back when you're ready, or listen with a parent or trusted adult nearby. If you've been struggling with these patterns for months or longer, please reach out to a professional for support.   Step Together website:  steptogether.com   Connect with Leslie: Ready to talk through what your teen is navigating and what kind of support would actually help?

Śledztwo ws dwóch wież Kaczyńskiego umorzone. Prokuratura nie dopatrzyła się znamion czynu zabronionego w łapówkach czy oszustwie na ponad milion euro. Dlaczego. Tego prokuratura nie chce wytłumaczyć. Najpierw chce przetłumaczyć decyzję na język niemiecki. Chociaż nikt o to nie prosił. Po miłym przesłuchaniu Jarosława Kaczyńskiego można się było spodziewać takiego finału. Czy to oznacza, że Tusk i Kaczyński są dogadani? Głosujcie w naszej sondzie A dziś w ogóle umorzeniowy dzień. Umorzono dwa wątki śledztwa w sprawie niby "zamachu stanu" Szymona Hołowni, czyli wygaszenia mandatów Kamińskiego i Wąsika oraz podżegania go do niezaprzysiężenia Karola Nawrockiego. Umorzono też po raz kolejny sprawę policjanta, który złamał rękę 19-letniej aktywistce podczas protestu. Te sprawy coś łączy, nie tylko to, że zostały umorzone. W programie powiemy również o tym czy zobaczymy kardynała Dziwisza w kajdankach, dlaczego kardynał Dziwisz nie podpisał się pod ukraińsko-polskim apelem o przebaczenie i jak Leszek Miller rozkręcił akcję odbierania orderu prezydentowi Ukrainy. ⛵️

An unexpected visit from his sister changed Ed's life forever. She came bearing news of a possible surprise child--a previously unknown genetic relative who showed up as a niece that no one knew. A surprise child, thought Ed? Is it really possible?! Ed's willingness to consider it possible and to send off for a 23andMe test the very next day changed the trajectory of both Ed's and Kami's future...and the shape of their families...forever. Listen in on this special Father's Day edition of DNA Clarity and Support to hear the story as told from Ed's perspective as a late-discovery biological father as well as from that of his newly-discovered biological daughter, Kami. Their story offers a rare opportunity to hear how a DNA discovery unfolds on both sides of the relationship. You'll hear what navigating uncertainty looked like for each of them, how their expectations evolved over time, and how a discovery that began in late 2020 grew into a close and lasting family connection that now includes regular gatherings with an expanded circle of relatives. In this episode, you'll hear: • How Ed's wife's background as a social worker helped shape the family's response • How Kami's understanding of what she needed—and what she hoped for—changed throughout the journey • Why Ed turned to an online support group and the value of writing down his thoughts along the way • How a heartfelt letter sent after their first meeting helped establish trust and connection • What it was like for Kami to attend a large family reunion and meet relatives she never expected to know If this episode resonates with you, be sure to explore other episodes of DNA Clarity and Support featuring people searching for biological relatives, late-discovery biological parents, and families navigating unexpected DNA discoveries. You'll also find additional articles, resources, and personal stories on the Watershed DNA blog, covering topics such as making first contact, managing expectations, navigating reunions, and finding your footing after a life-changing discovery.

If the pace of running your business has felt heavier lately — more noise, more pressure, more competition for attention — this episode is for you. This week I'm joined by Kami Guildner, a business coach for high-vibe women entrepreneurs. Last year, she put her usual work aside and spent months just listening — having real conversations with hundreds of women business owners about what was actually going on for them. What she heard surprised her, and it might surprise you too. We get into what she learned, how it's showing up in the businesses that are actually growing right now, and what to do with the ideas you've been sitting on but haven't quite known how to share with the world. If you've been craving more stillness, more quiet, and a little permission to stop doing everything all the time — pop in those earphones.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN What Kami discovered after a year of real conversations with hundreds of women business owners Why the businesses that grew last year were run by women who paused and listened — even in a strange, uncertain year How to ask better questions that get to what your clients are really desiring, instead of just their pain points What a "one message for the world" is, and how to find yours Why more content isn't the answer when the market feels loud and saturated — and what is   KAMI'S FREE GIFT FOR GAME ON GIRLFRIEND® LISTENERS Kami offers free monthly online training, alternating between live round tables with other speakers and deeper solo training.

Novela zákona o cestnej premávke č. 8/2009 začne platiť už od septembra tohto roka. Pripravili sme pre vás zhrnutie legislatívnych noviniek, ktoré sa týkajú kontroverzných elektrických kolobežiek. Po novom ich zákon definuje ako malé elektrické vozidlá.Schvaľovanie a prijatie novely zákona o cestnej premávke prebehlo tentoraz rýchlo. Zatiaľ čo v predchádzajúcej epizóde podcastu sme sumarizovali legislatívne novinky pre vodičov motorových vozidiel, dnes sa sústreďujeme na používateľov elektrických kolobežiek. Tie sú po novom považované za malé motorové vozidlá a zákonodarcovia pre ne vyhradili aj celkom nový paragraf 55a.Novou epizódou podcastu sprevádza motoristický novinár Erik Stríž, postupne sa venuje nasledujúcim témam: Zákon schválila Národná rada SR aj ho podpísal prezident, platiť začne od septembra Ako rýchlo môžu jazdiť elektrické kolobežky?

When a child needs emergency transport to a children's hospital, families are often facing one of the hardest moments of their lives. Behind every ambulance ride, helicopter flight, or plane transfer is a highly trained team working together to keep children safe, while also supporting parents through the unknown. In this episode of Inside the Children's Hospital, Katie Taylor sits down with Kami Stone, Assistant Clinical Director at Texas Children's Hospital Austin, and Jacob, a transport EMT with the Texas Children's Kangaroo Crew, to talk about what pediatric transport really looks like behind the scenes. Together, they share: What happens when a pediatric transport team arrives The roles of EMTs, nurses, respiratory therapists, and physicians during transport How transport teams prepare for weather, traffic, logistics, and emergencies Why Texas Children's prioritizes family-centered care during transport What parents can expect during ambulance, helicopter, and plane transports How simulation training prepares teams for high-stress situations The emotional realities of caring for critically ill children and supporting families in crisis Why is asking questions during transport always encouraged The small moments of human connection that families never forget Jacob also shares his personal story of being treated at Texas Children's as a child after being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes — and how that experience inspired him to dedicate his career to pediatric transport care. This conversation offers a rare look into the people and systems families depend on during medical emergencies, while reminding parents that they are never alone during the journey. About Our Guests Kami Stone, MSN, RN, NE-BC Kami Stone is the Assistant Clinical Director overseeing the Emergency Center, trauma program, and transport team at Texas Children's Hospital in Austin, Texas. With a background in emergency nursing and healthcare leadership, Kami is passionate about building systems that improve both patient outcomes and family experiences during transport care.

What happens when a clinician decides that traditional residential treatment isn't enough for adolescent girls struggling with trauma? In this episode Will talks with Kami Black, founder of ROOTs Transition in Park City. Founded during the uncertainty of the COVID pandemic, ROOTs Transition was built around a bold idea: combine the healing power of nature, intensive family systems work, and trauma-informed residential care into one integrated model for adolescent girls ages 15–18. Kami shares how her own experiences, years in residential treatment, and deep commitment to trauma work shaped a program focused not just on behaviors like anxiety, eating disorders, substance use, and depression—but on the underlying developmental and relational trauma driving them. Throughout the conversation, Kami offers a thoughtful and nuanced look at how trauma actually develops in young people and why many traditional behavioral approaches can miss the deeper issues. She explains ROOTs' emphasis on family engagement, outdoor integration, emotional regulation, and helping girls reconnect with themselves in a culture increasingly shaped by social media pressure, comparison, and disconnection. This episode is especially valuable for parents, clinicians, educational consultants, and anyone interested in innovative approaches to helping adolescent girls heal from trauma while building resilience, self-worth, and healthier relationships. This podcast is supported by White Mountain Adventure Institute (wmai.org), offering adventure inspired retreats and coaching for men and facilitated by Will White.

Dziś w Raporcie o książkach niezwykła okazja, by porozmawiać o literaturze, teatrze, przekładzie, historii i współczesności. Przez wszystkie te tematy poprowadzi nas William Szekspir, do którego wracamy w szczególny sposób po sześciu latach. Pamiętają państwo naszą realizację „Henryka V” z 2020 roku? To był mroczny czas pandemii, dziś mamy słoneczną wiosnę, ale Szekspir jest dobry na każdy czas.We wtorek, 12 maja, premiera naszej realizacji „Makbeta” w skróconej wersji opracowanej przez tłumacza Piotra Kamińskiego. Ten spektakl jest hołdem złożonym tekstowi dramatu. To on stanowi podstawę inscenizacji i determinuje jej formę. Aktorzy są przekazicielami myśli i poezji Szekspira, a słowa - ich treść, rytm i brzmienie - tworzą fundament spektaklu.O tych słowach właśnie - choć nie tylko o nich - Dariusz Rosiak porozmawia dziś w Raporcie o książkach z autorem przekładu Piotrem Kamińskim, twórcą wielu nowych polskich wersji sztuk Szekspira.Prowadzenie: Dariusz RosiakGość: Piotr Kamiński---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ ⁠https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiak⁠Subskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠➡️ ⁠https://dariuszrosiak.substack.com⁠Koszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ ⁠https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/⁠ [Autopromocja]

This week we're listing off our suggestions and hopes on how the Ōkami sequel can improve on the original! From game pacing to story, game-play to technical improvements, and even the celestial brush itself!

Our Ōkami celebration continues, as this week, we rank all eight dungeons in the Zelda-like title! From the not-quite-intro-but-close dungeons like Tsuta Ruins and Gale Shrine to the mini-dungeon Sunken Ship, to the literal mini-dunegon of the Imperial Palace to heavy hitters like the Moon Cave, Oni Island, and Wawku Shrine that would feel right at home in modern 3D Zelda titles, we go through them all and discuss the highs and lows. Plus, Al gives her thoughts after playing Ōkami for the first time about the game, its vibes, Issun, Orochi, Ninetails, and more!

Over the next few weeks, we are celebrating 20 years of one of - if not THE - greatest Zelda-like games of all time: Ōkami! We start off with our 20 Year Retrospective, as Zelda Dungeon's Nicole Scott and Miranda Feller join the show to discuss what makes Ōkami so endearing, what qualities make it such a Zelda-like, our memories playing the game for the first time, our thoughts on Amatersau as a main character and Issun as a companion, how the Celestial Brush techniques felt in both motion controls and standard mode, how the games story is structured, and how Ōkami might be the ultimate good vibes game. The next few weeks are all about Ōkami as it celebrates this milestone anniversary, so if it's been a while or you've never played it, we hope you do!   Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon!
