Rule of law faces serious threats to its viability in many countries. It has become a recurring topic in the media and is affecting our daily lives. To understand better the meaning of rule of law, the stakes, and how governments and citizens can respond to today's challenges, we must return to first principles. In Law's Rule (Oxford U. Press, 2022), eminent philosopher of law Gerald Postema draws on a lifetime of research and thought to articulate and defend a comprehensive, coherent, and compelling conception of the rule of law and defend it against serious challenges to its intelligibility, relevance, and normative force. The rule of law's ambition, Postema argues, is to provide protection and recourse against the arbitrary exercise of power using the distinctive tools of the law. Law provides a bulwark of protection, a bridle on the powerful, and a bond constituting and holding together the polity and giving public expression to an ideal mode of association. Two principles immediately follow from this core: sovereignty of law, demanding that those who exercise ruling power govern with law and that law governs them, and equality in the eyes of the law, demanding that law's protection extend to all bound by it. Animating law's rule, the ethos of fidelity commits all members of the political community, officials and lay members alike, to take responsibility for holding each other accountable under the law. Postema's work is theoretically rigorous while addressing the myriad practical considerations in building and maintaining the rule of law. Gerald Postema is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, University of North Carolina had has widely published in legal and political philosophy and ethics. He earned a BA degree from Calvin College (1970) and PhD (1976) from Cornell University. He began his teaching career at Johns Hopkins University (1975-1980). From 1980 until his retirement in 2019, he taught philosophy and law at UNC-Chapel Hill, since 1996 as Boshamer Distinguished Professor of Philosophy. He is interviewed by Thomas McInerney, an international lawyer, scholar, and strategist, who has worked to advance rule of law internationally for 25 years. He has taught in the Rule of Law for Development Program at Loyola University Chicago School of Law since 2011. He writes the Rights, Regulation and Rule of Law newsletter on Substack.

As the Baltic states switch synchronization from the Russian to the Western European grid, construction will soon begin at an Estonian pumped hydro project with deep underground excavation works. meanwhile Norway has backed off from an offshore wind expansion which would have increased its international transmission connection across the North Sea.Australia's CSP company, Vast, is working towards FiD at its Port Augusta project - concentrated solar power is niche, but by no means dying off.China's north is the most likely site for the world's green hydrogen, but actual project construction remains low in absolute terms, with more price improvement needed to become truly profitable.

Functional Ecology author Ella Plumanns Pouton chats to Amelia Macho about her research article, 'How do intervals between fires influence canopy seed production and viability?' Ella's study sought to understand how the frequency of fire shaped the quantity of available cones and the seeds within those cones. Her findings, in the context of expected increases in wildfire frequency and droughts in Mediterranean ecosystems, suggest that serotinous species' reproduction and recruitment will be differentially impacted depending on a suite of functional traits.

In this episode, Steve Goreham discusses the controversies and outcomes surrounding the recent COP 29 climate conference, and criticizes the effectiveness and practicality of current climate policies and renewable energy initiatives. He argues that global efforts to curb CO2 emissions and switch to renewable energy have largely been ineffective, costly, and sometimes counterproductive, citing examples such as the increase in extreme weather-exposed renewable installations and the significant electrical demands posed by emerging technologies like AI. Goreham also predicts a future pushback against these green policies, driven by their economic and practical shortcomings, leading to a return to more reliable and low-cost energy sources. 00:00 Global Meat Consumption Trends 00:13 Introduction to Steve Goreham and COP 29 00:53 Controversies and Outcomes of COP 29 02:43 The Futility of COP Conferences 03:00 The Reality of Global Energy Consumption 03:46 Wealth Transfer and Climate Aid 05:29 The Impracticality of Net Zero Goals 08:31 Challenges with Renewable Energy 11:41 The Future of Global Energy 16:05 Europe's Energy Crisis 20:02 The Viability of Alternative Fuels 24:38 The High Cost of Sustainable Aviation Fuel 24:51 Mandates and Loss of Freedom 26:28 California's Controversial Policies 28:37 The Reality of Renewable Energy 31:07 Global Energy Crisis and Blackouts 42:30 The Future of Nuclear Energy 44:07 The Proliferation of Climate Laws 46:05 Conclusion and Final Thoughts https://www.stevegoreham.com/ https://x.com/stevegoreham ========= AI summaries of all of my podcasts (plus transcripts of recent podcasts): https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries About Tom Nelson: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1 AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL89cj_OtPeenLkWMmdwcT8Dt0DGMb8RGR X: https://x.com/TomANelson Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about

Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!The AP Top 25 may foreshadow what the College Football Playoff becomes.The Selection Committee will have its work cut out for it when the 13-something individuals have to put together their 12-team playoff field. While Texas A&M looks like the Aggies will very much be a part of it, what about BYU potentially separating from the rest of the pack in the Big 12?The Cougars were a major point of discussion between John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) in forecasting their playoff fields. At 8-0, they have simply been more dominant over 7-0 Iowa State. They would only face each other in the Big 12 Championship Game.To wrap the show up, the boys touched on the mighty fine job Mike Elko is doing at Texas A&M before pouring one out for six seven-loss teams. Cody did his best Fred Durst impression on celebrating a slew of teams getting to six wins.False Start was as off the rails as humanly imaginable. Enjoy the ride, folks!

Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Brad Kittredge, CEO & Co-Founder of Brightside, a virtual mental health care platform that's raised nearly $150 Million in funding. Here are the most interesting points from our conversation: Brightside's Comprehensive Mental Health Platform: Brad explains how Brightside offers a wide range of services, from psychiatry and therapy to suicide prevention, covering over 130 million Americans through partnerships with health insurance companies. Shifting Perceptions of Mental Health: Since Brightside's founding in 2017, cultural attitudes toward mental health have shifted dramatically. The pandemic accelerated the normalization of mental health conversations, reducing stigma and making virtual care more acceptable. Proving the Viability of Telemedicine: Initially, investors and consumers were skeptical about the adoption of remote mental health care, but the pandemic acted as a forcing function. Brightside saw telemedicine claims remain high post-pandemic, especially for mental health services. Navigating Complex Regulatory Challenges: Brad highlights how Brightside has been proactive in navigating healthcare regulations, especially around controlled substances. By choosing not to prescribe them, they mitigated certain regulatory risks, while focusing on influencing policy for the broader benefit of telemedicine. Brightside's Focus on Hard-to-Treat Cases: By launching their Crisis Care Program, which targets suicide prevention, Brightside doubled down on treating the most challenging and high-cost mental health cases, further differentiating themselves from competitors. Rapid Product Development and Go-to-Market Success: Brad and his team launched Brightside's alpha in just five months, achieving their first revenue within a week. Their ability to focus on product-market fit and leverage early consumer interest in telehealth drove fast early success. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co

Earlier this year the company named industry veteran Kent Rogers as its CEO.
