Daily Voting News For June 29, 2006

On the subject of audits in Utah - The lieutenant governor's office will seek expert advice on the matter this summer and add the requirement administratively, said spokesman Joe Demma. "We could just randomly take 10 or 15 machines and audit the paper trail, but what we want are professional guidelines," Demma said. "We're going to look for professionals to set some guidelines for what would qualify as an accurate statistical model." How about Hawaii or New Mexico as examples of good audit laws?...

Eugene Doyle: Has WWIII Started?
Many of those who drank the US Kool Aid and shackled their national projects to the US geopolitical juggernaut eventually got crushed and left in the dust of their own countries as the Americans moved on to their next project. We all need to evolve our psychology and think more like statesmen and stateswomen – and less like nutters.
Binoy Kampmark: Fencing The Ocean - Australia’s Social Media Safety Bill
These laws constitute yet another effort to concentrate power and responsibilities best held by the citizenry in the hands of a bureaucratic-political class governed by paranoia and procedure.
Binoy Kampmark: Trump, AUKUS And Australia’s Dim Servitors
Australia’s government has abandoned all pretence of resistance, measure or judgment, outrageously willing to underwrite the US imperium in any of its needs in countering China, raiding the treasury of taxpayer funds to the tune of a figure that will, eventually, exceed A$368 billion.

Peter Dunne: Dunne's Weekly - The Wrong Answer To A Question That Does Not Exist
The Treaty is therefore our modus operandi for common nationhood. It is not about the dominance of one signatory over the other, but as Norman Kirk said, about how we all live together in these islands. In that regard, the Treaty Principles Bill is simply the wrong answer to a question that does not properly exist.
Martin LeFevre - Meditations: Perception, Conception And Beauty
As we get older the perception of beauty becomes more difficult because memories & experiences fill the mind, leaving less & less space for seeing with innocence, as a child sees. It requires diligence to retain a purity of perception, though the very notion of purity is ridiculed by ruling elites.
Alastair Thompson: On The Publication Of The First NCQG Text 'New Collective Quantified Goal On Climate Finance'
COP29 is officially due to end on November 22nd but almost certainly will not do so, as there is not yet even a total number for climate finance on the table - which is one of the the things that Developing Nations are pushing for.
