The Supreme Court's recent controversial ruling about presidential immunity appears to rely on a shadowy notion of executive branch power called the unitary executive theory.  After gaining currency in conservative circles for decades, the unitary executive may now be poised to go from theory into reality, thanks to the right-wing SCOTUS supermajority.  Mark and Joe trace the theory's lineage, whether evidence for it exists in our founding documents, and the implications of its newfound legitimacy. (Recorded July 26, 2024.)

Bryn Sedlacek, Vice President and Product Manager at Aravo, joins us on the podcast to discuss third-party risk management focusing on holistic risks and unified visibility. In a wide-ranging discussion, Mike Volkov and Bryn Sedlacek discuss the challenges in implementing a third-party risk management program that captures holistic risks and maintains a consistent, unified line of sight across the organization's risk profile. They focus on sanctions, capturing the source and ultimate destination of products/services and including those in screening, leveraging how to handle conflict minerals as a model, and how data intelligence providers can help. Additionally, Bryn discusses unified visibility, which provides comprehensive visibility to executives and decision-makers across risk domains and performance. Finally, they discuss InfoSec risk with third parties, where to start, and the future of risk - technology and alternative risk strategies. Join Michael and Bryn as they navigate the complexities of compliance in today's corporate landscape.Bryn discusses how crucial it is to start with a realistic approach to building a compliance program and continually improve compliance programs to mitigate risks effectively.Having a platform like Arvao's is valuable for companies as it is highly configurable and tailored to meet the unique needs of each client's business structure and risk management requirements.The partnership between IT and cyber security in a compliance program is vital for addressing cybersecurity risks effectively within organizations. It is a growing trend for IT and cyber security to focus on collaboration and meeting the unique needs of each department.Unified visibility across different risk domains and third-party activities is essential for making informed decisions and managing risks effectively. Continuous monitoring and auditing are crucial in compliance programs, with a risk-based approach to optimize resources and ensure proactive risk management.Sanctions compliance is a growing area of focus, requiring proactive monitoring, risk-based approaches, and continuous updates to mitigate risks effectively.ResourcesBryn Sedlaceck on the WebEmail: bsedlacek@arvavo.comMichael Volkov on LinkedIn | TwitterThe Volkov Law Group

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Back to Basics: Truth is Unitary, published by lsusr on March 30, 2024 on LessWrong. It was a dark and stormy night. The prospect held the front of his cloak tight to his chest. He stumbled, fell over into the mud, and picked himself back up. Shivering, he slammed his body against the front doors of the Temple and collapsed under its awning. He picked himself up and slammed his fists against the double ironwood doors. He couldn't hear his own knocks above the gale. He banged harder, then with all his strength. "Hello! Is anyone in there? Does anyone still tend the Fire?" he implored. There was no answer. The Temple's stone walls were built to last, but rotting plywood covered the apertures that once framed stained glass. The prospect slumped down again, leaning his back against the ironwood. He listened to the pitter-patter of rain on overgrowth. It wasn't a bad place to think. The trouble was, he didn't want to think. Not right now. Thinking creates depression. Action cures it. The prospect put his stiff hands in his pockets. His fingers traced the delicate forms of a disposable lighter bought on the darkweb and a short cheap aluminum-wrapped wax candle. He considered lighting the candle under the Temple's awning. But that felt pathetic. If the Temple was abandoned then he should at least do it at the altar. The acolyte eyed the plywood. Surely he could punch through it and climb in that way. He left the shelter of the awning and tapped on the former window. His taps left fingerprints in the myceliation. The ironwood doors opened. A young girl poked her head out. The prospect shouted in surprised and fell into the mud. "What are you doing out there in the mud?" the girl asked. "Choosing to dunk myself in the mud wasn't exactly an explicit rational choice," said the prospect while shaking himself off. "Well come inside. Hypothermia impairs one's ability to make rational decisions," said the girl. She poked her head back inside the Temple and closed the door behind herself to keep out the rain. The prospect looked at the door. He noticed it wasn't locked. It had never been locked. The prospect opened the door and stepped inside. The Temple wasn't warm, but it was mostly dry. The large circular domed chamber was ringed with statues. Rain fell through the oculus in the eye of the dome. The statues' paint had partially worn away. The girl had hung her own hagoromo on the statue of Mukami-sama, the God of Atheism. The prospect's cloak was so soaked it was keeping him colder than warming him up. There were no chairs or coat rack. It would be mala suerte to just set it on the floor. It felt sacrilegious. But…when in Rome…. The prospect almost hung his cloak on the statue closest to himself. Then he realized that the true sacrilege would be to pick a statue without considering Who he was acknowledging. Mukami-sama was already taken. He paced around the circumference of the chamber, taking care with each step as if the floor could collapse under him. Half the gods he didn't even recognize. Of those he did… Math-sama's too-perfect curves? No. Moloch? Azathoth? Multivac? Three times no. Morpheus? So many gods' names started with the letter "M". Science-sama was almost right… Then he saw the dragon wings and octopus face. The prospect wasn't choosing which kami to worship. He was choosing which kami to ignore. The prospect arranged his cloak to maximize surface area. That was definitely the reason. Not to block out the thoughts it induced in his mind. It wasn't until he committed to his choice that the girl spoke again. "Do you have an offering?" she asked, gently. There was no money in his pockets. It had taken all he had just to get here. But he had not come empty-handed. He placed his smokeless candle on the floor of the Temple, among the dirt and rubble, and lit it. "Your of...

Park surfacing is a key feature of a safe playground. We've come a long way from the sand and gravel playgrounds of future generations.  In the last episode, we discussed the various loose-fill materials used for playground surfaces. For some playgrounds, loose-fill materials make a suitable playground surface solution. However, this type of playground surfacing has some drawbacks, which may make you wonder what else is available. Parks and recreation agencies looking for more accessible, consistent surfacing may use unitary materials for their playgrounds.  In this episode of the Productive Parks 5-Minute Podcast, we discuss some options for unitary surfacing, how well they perform, and the maintenance needed to keep them in the best condition.  ___________________________________________________________________________ The Productive Parks 5-Minute Podcast is for busy professionals working to change the game in the Parks and Recreation field.

We all know that teenagers need their friends, and spending time with others protects against anxiety and all sorts of other mental health problems. At the same time, groups of teens are far more likely to take risks and behave in a delinquent manner, which is what one of our listeners has discovered. Aged 13, her son has already started doing things with his friends that have got him into trouble with the police, so she's come to us for help.In this episode we talk about long-term trends in teenage delinquency, what we know about the teenage brain, and the one key thing she can do to keep him from messing up badly whilst he's at this vulnerable age.BEHAVIOUR CONTRACT:https://www.theyarethefuture.co.uk/teenage-behaviour-contracts/RESEARCH STUDIES:The great decline in adolescent risk behaviours: Unitary trend, separate trends, or cascade https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277953622009224#bib80  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2396566/#:~:text=Changes%20in%20Neural%20Oxytocin%20at,takes%20place%20early%20in%20adolescence. https://www.theyarethefuture.co.uk/troubled-teen-boy/ https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyt.2022.744794/full https://www.understandingboys.com.au/how-to-handle-your-sons-unhealthy-risk-taking/ https://www.psychologytoday.com/gb/blog/talking-apes/202003/why-do-young-men-engage-in-risky-behaviors#:~:text=Risk%2Dtaking%20in%20males%20is,genes%20into%20the%20next%20generation. https://www.empoweringparents.com/article/is-your-child-engaging-in-delinquent-behavior-4-ways-to-ma [Accessed 30 May 2023]. Thanks for listening.

So I come to you fresh from 12 days holiday in Japan. For those of you who are keen but the language difficulties keep you from going, I've got 2 words for you. Google Translate. The free app that translates anything written in most languages. It's the key to unlocking a different culture. Japan is the home of high performing public transport. The government decided to put all its effort into trains and subways, letting private enterprise build the motorways.  As a result the roads are tolled and expensive.  While the trains are plentiful and cheap and so on time. No one is ever late for work. Meanwhile bicycles and cycle lanes are everywhere because the costs associated with cars are prohibitive. Watching mums cycling around with 2 kids on their mama chariot bikes was eye-opening. It was my first big trip overseas since 2015 and Japan had only just lifted Covid vaccination controls the week beforehand. I was bracing myself for all the people calling New Zealand a laughing stock because of our overreaction to Covid because that's what so many people had told me they were saying on my talkback sessions. I met a lot of French and Americans.  We weren't a laughing stock. They called New Zealand mature and wise unlike their own childish and tribal politicians. Which made me laugh as I read about Megan Woods advising New Zealanders to take shorter showers in wake of the cost of living crisis. The return of nanny state politics which ran Helen Clark out of office back in the day. You would have thought that the first thing Labour politicians learn is not to talk about New Zealander's showers. Then little Simeon Brown who believes that New Zealanders are so dumb we can't handle 2 languages on a road sign. For your information Simeon, Japanese road signs are written in both English and Japanese. And no one is confused. Be proud of your casual racism if that's what you are. Meanwhile people are saying that Labour has nothing new after their Labour Congress apprentice policy announcement. That's true. At the moment they're just extending existing policy or postponing unpopular policy, there sure ain't anything new. And National just u-turned on their housing policy, the one Nicola Willis, Judith Collins, and Megan Woods spent months working on. That's got to be a slap on the face for Nicola. But frankly it was a blunt and stupid law change. Auckland in particular had already thrashed the issue out with their Unitary plan. If National really wants to speed up housing provision perhaps they should get stuck into Resource Management Act reform. Something they've been promising for decades now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The European Union's new Unified Patent Court is an international body set up by participating EU Member States to deal with the infringement and validity of both Unitary Patents and European patents. The court's objective is “putting an end to costly parallel litigation and enhancing legal certainty.” Unitary patents are intended to make it possible to get patent protection in up to 25 EU Member States by submitting a single request to the European Patent Office, making the procedure simpler and more cost effective for applicants. The new system goes live on June 1, 2023. What must U.S. and multi-national U.S.-based companies understand about the court? Why should inventors and their organizations factor it in to any existing or new patent strategy they may be developing?For answers to these questions and more listen to my interview with attorneys Marianne Schaffner and Thierry Lautier who practice out of the Paris office of Reed Smith. Marianne heads the intellectual Property team in Paris and the patent practice in Europe. She manages complex national and transnational patent, trade secrets and trademark disputes in the healthcare, chemistry, technology and telecommunications sectors. Thierry is part of the firm's global Intellectual Property Group. With a dual legal and engineering/scientific background, Thierry uses his understanding, knowledge, and experience to provide clients with creative, technically robust, and business-oriented patent strategies.

Philip Kirkpatrick, deputy managing partner of Bates Wells London LLP offers hope to strengthen governance and balance in expectations of trustees. He feels that an assured unitary governance model offers assurance for boards and organisations they governance. “We all love change as long as it's happening to someone else. No one is very keen to change themselves.” There's not one only one way of doing this, you know. There is a broad structure, and there will be different ways in which people will implement it. Just like there are different ways in which people implement the existing normal charities structures. “When things go wrong, despite the role of the trustee simply being really oversight, and trying to do their best to make sure things are working effectively, and they've got reasonable oversight. When things go wrong, trustees are holed up, trustees are criticised.” Philip likes to find the paths through apparent blockages. With this in mind Philip offers an alternative hope of assurance for boards and the organisations they govern.

What caused the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine? Ukraine was one of the administrative units of the Soviet Union from it's foundation in 1922 until it was dissolved in 1991. After this, Ukraine became an independent state, a country in it's own right, which is now controlled by a Unitary semi-presidential republic, with Volodymyr Zelenskyy as President since 2019. Since its independence in 1991, Ukraine has experienced its fair share of problems, such as the Orange Revolution from November 2004 to January 2005 and the Euromaidan protests which lasted from November 2013 to mid-2014, and resulted in the Revolution of Dignity, in which the pro-Russian President, Viktor Yanukovych, was ousted, due to widespread opposition of his policy of moving away from working with the European Union, in favour of establishing a much closer relationship with the Russian Federation. After Yanukovych was ousted, President Putin of Russia began planning for the annexation of Crimea— and this is where the Russo-Ukrainian war begins.

In this video Dr. Kirkland explains his theory of aging and discusses the Unitary Theory of Fundamental Aging, which posits that there are underlying pillars of aging which cause the diseases of aging and that are interlinked. Dr. Kirkland offers some examples of these linkages Dr. James Kirkland is Director of the Robert and Arlene Kogod Center on Aging at Mayo Clinic and Noaber Foundation Professor of Aging Research. Dr. Kirkland's research focuses on cellular senescence, age-related adipose tissue and metabolic dysfunction, and development of agents and strategies for targeting fundamental aging mechanisms to treat age-related chronic diseases and disabilities and to extend healthspan. He published the first article about drugs that clear senescent cells, senolytic agents. A novel, mechanism-based, hypothesis-driven drug development paradigm was used to discover senolytic drugs. Based on the observation that senescent cells release factors that cause apoptosis of the cells around them, yet are themselves resistant to apoptosis, Dr. Kirkland hypothesized that senescent cells utilize senescent cell anti-apoptotic pathways (SCAPs) for protection from their own senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Using bioinformatics analyses of senescent vs. non-senescent cells and RNA interference, Dr. Kirkland identified these SCAPs and verified their importance for senescent cell survival. Dr. Kirkland used bioinformatics approaches to identify agents that target key nodes across the SCAP network and demonstrated these drugs are senolytic in rodent and human cultured cells and mice in vivo. These senolytic drugs include Dasatinib (D), Quercetin (Q), Fisetin, Navitoclax, and related compounds. Dr. Kirkland showed these agents delay, prevent, or alleviate multiple disorders in mouse models of human chronic diseases and aging phenotypes. Conditions alleviated in mouse models include frailty, diabetes, hepatic steatosis, cirrhosis, renal dysfunction, neuropsychiatric disorders, dementias, pulmonary fibrosis, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, retinal degeneration, diastolic dysfunction, cardiac ischemia, vascular hyporeactivity, infertility, and skin disorders, among others. He demonstrated that intermittent, orally administered senolytics reduce senescent cell abundance in adipose tissue and blood markers of senescent cell burden in blood of patients with diabetic kidney disease. He and collaborators found that a brief course of senolytics enhances physical function and reduces frailty in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a fatal, cellular-senescence-driven disease for which available treatments have been unsatisfactory. Multiple clinical trials are currently underway of the senolytics that Dr. Kirkland discovered. He is a scientific advisory board member for several companies and academic organizations. In addition to being President-Elect of AFAR, he has been a member of the National Advisory Council on Aging of the National Institutes of Health, and past chair of the Biological Sciences Section of the Gerontological Society of America. He holds honorary appointments at Boston University and the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. He is a board-certified specialist in internal medicine, geriatrics, and endocrinology and metabolism.

Phantoms of a Beleaguered Republic: The Deep State and the Unitary Executive (Oxford University Press, 2021) powerfully dissects one of the fundamental problems in American governance today: the clash between presidents determined to redirect the nation through ever-tighter control of administration and an executive branch still organized to promote shared interests in steady hands, due deliberation, and expertise. As the nation's chief executive, Donald Trump pitted himself repeatedly against the institutions and personnel of the executive branch. In the process, two once-obscure concepts came center stage in an eerie faceoff. On one side was the specter of a Deep State conspiracy-administrators threatening to thwart the will of the people and undercut the constitutional authority of the president they elected to lead them. On the other side was a raw personalization of presidential power, one that a theory of the unitary executive gussied up and allowed to run roughshod over reason and the rule of law. The Deep State and the unitary executive framed every major contest of the Trump presidency. Like phantom twins, they drew each other out and wrestled to light basic issues of governance long suppressed. Though this conflict reached a fever pitch during the Trump presidency, it is not new. Stephen Skowronek, John A. Dearborn, and Desmond King trace the tensions between presidential power and the depth of the American state back through the decades and forward through the various settlements arrived at in previous eras. Phantoms of a Beleaguered Republic is about the breakdown of settlements and the abiding vulnerabilities of a Constitution that gave scant attention to administrative power. Rather than simply dump on Trump, the authors provide a richly historical perspective on the conflicts that rocked his presidency, and they explain why, if left untamed, the phantom twins will continue to pull the American government apart. Stephen Skowronek is the Pelatiah Perit Professor of Political and Social Science at Yale University.  John A. Dearborn is an Assistant Professor of Political Science and Carolyn T. and Robert M. Rogers Dean's Faculty Fellow at Vanderbilt University. Desmond King is the Andrew W Mellon Professor of Government at the University of Oxford. Kirk Meighoo is Public Relations Officer for the United National Congress, the Official Opposition in Trinidad and Tobago. His career has spanned media, academia, and politics for three decades.
