Presidential election: which path will Brazil take?
Der Standard is concerned for the Brazilian rainforest: “The greatest threat posed by a Bolsonaro presidency is that to the Amazon rainforest, the world's most important CO2 sink. Under his father, deforestation – mostly illegal but tolerated – increased by 75 percent; under Lula it decreased significantly and was set to go down to zero by 2030. Four more years of Bolsonaro rule, however, would likely bring even more aggressive deforestation than before. ...
“Trump Is Not the Architect of Autocracy - He Is a Symptom”
This article has been translated from German and was originally published by Austrian newspaper DER STANDARD. The original article can be accessed here. As the Democratic minority leader in the Georgia House of Representatives (2011-2017), Stacey Abrams succeeded in mobilizing Black voters in particular. She laid the groundwork for Joe Biden’s victory in this traditionally conservative state in the 2020 presidential election and for the subsequent election of two Democratic U.S. senators.
Is the US still a role model after 250 years?
Sweden should look for new role models, recommends the Göteborg-Posten: “Over the past few decades, Sweden has adopted virtually every American cultural trend, be it populism, activism or popular culture. Perhaps we should draw a little more inspiration from our European neighbours: from German high culture, Dutch consumer culture or French conversational culture, for instance.
The Battle for Liberal Democracy
Published date Written by Peace & Justice Opinion Salzburg Global Fellow Eric Frey analyzes how the digital revolution has exposed vulnerabilities to polarization, disinformation, and anti-democratic movements The digital age democratized access to information but also accelerated polarization, eroded trust in institutions, and weakened the foundations of informed public discourse.

What to make of the Iran deal?
The US and Iran have signed a memorandum of understanding to end the war. US President Donald Trump signed the document at the Palace of Versailles, while Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian signed it digitally, according to a statement issued by the Iranian Foreign Ministry in Tehran. The Strait of Hormuz is now to be reopened with immediate effect. Further issues – including what will happen with Iran's nuclear programme – are to be negotiated over the next 60 days.
100 days of the Iran war: a Gordian knot?
The Iranian regime is benefiting from the war, writes La Vanguardia: “Iran is the big winner right now. ... On the domestic front, it has crushed the uprisings under the pretext of defending Islam against an external enemy. ... With the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz it has discovered a strategic tool that gives it power it never realised it had before. ... Under these circumstances, it suits Iran perfectly if the conflict simply drags on.
100 days of the Iran war: Gordian knot in the Mideast?
Trump's influence over Netanyahu is waning, observes La Stampa: “The president, who backed Israel in its offensive against Iran, now finds himself in the opposite position: he is no longer merely a political and military instigator of the escalation but a desperate mediator in a conflict that is taking on the hallmarks of a never-ending war. ... One promises a final agreement with Tehran, the other invokes self-defence. ... 'The Donald' can ring up, get angry, issue warnings.
Sicherheitsexperte Heusgen: "Schmeicheln zahlt sich bei Trump nicht aus"

Mass layoffs at Washington Post: what is Bezos up to?
06 February 2026 Around a third of the journalists at the Washington Post, one of the US's most prestigious newspapers, have been laid off. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos acquired the financially struggling paper from the family that owned it in 2013 and invested heavily in its digital transformation.
Two years after 7 October: where is Israel headed?
Hamas may have been defeated militarily, but ideologically it is stronger than ever, Club Z concludes: “It is now receiving unexpected support from the West. Its ideology has spread surprisingly, and its information war is extremely successful. Two years after the bloody massacre we've even reached the point where the whole world is calling for mass protests to condemn not Hamas, but Israel. Antisemitism is no longer a reason to be ashamed. The consequences of 7 October are yet to unfold in Europe.
Gaza: what does the expanded offensive mean?
Israel should rather focus on an international peace initiative, demands the Financial Times: “The UK, France and Arab states have been formulating a plan that envisages a committee of Palestinian technocrats, backed by the PA, governing Gaza, with security overseen by local police and PA personnel. They have mooted an international 'stabilisation' force in the strip.

Protests in Turkey: what comes next?
The masses are having a hard time of things, Der Standard explains: “Erdoğan knows the recipe for gaining control over the press, the judiciary, the police and the army, and then using all of them to stay in power for ever. ... In the end, it's not the number of demonstrators but the loyalty of the ruler's closest allies and above all of the army that decides whether the dictator or the masses win out. Most rulers have learned this and ensure that their own ranks remain closed.
An International Study of Factors Affecting Variability of Dosimetry Calculations, Part 4: Impact of Fitting Functions in Estimated Absorbed Doses
DISCUSSION Previous publications on factors affecting variability in the dosimetry calculations of the SNMMI 177Lu Dosimetry Challenge (5,13,18) showed combined variabilities from all elements of the dosimetry workflow. Here, we focused on analyzing variability in AD determination from time–activity data using submissions from tasks 4 and 5. In the first step of this analysis, we identified the most used fitting methods for modeling different time–activity curve regions.
US tariffs: a trade war with Europe now?
04 February 2025 Donald Trump imposed high tariffs on goods coming from Mexico and Canada on the weekend, only to suspend the measure for 30 days after talks with the countries' leaders. New tariffs against China came into force, to which Beijing responded with counter-tariffs. Trump has also threatened to impose tariffs on the EU "pretty soon." Commentators discuss how Europe should react to a looming trade war with the US.
US tariffs: now a trade war with Europe?
Trump is testing the limits, Corriere della Sera fears: “Unfortunately, we must also consider another, even more radical hypothesis. It has to do with the brutality of the first days of his government, including the tariffs that were imposed in a way that seems to belie his dealmaker logic. ...
Trump imposes high tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China
03 February 2025 Donald Trump has imposed a 25 percent tariff on goods coming from Mexico and Canada, together with a ten percent tariff on Canadian energy imports and all goods from China. The US President justified the move saying it was aimed at countering the threat of "illegal aliens and deadly drugs" crossing US borders. The three affected countries have announced countermeasures. Europe's press shows little understanding for Trump's move.
Regime change in Syria: migration debate in full swing
11 December 2024 In the wake of Assad's fall from power, several European states have suspended asylum proceedings for Syrians and plan to rethink their policies regarding refugees from the country. Around six million people have fled Syria since the outbreak of civil war in 2011. Commentators question whether the conditions for a safe return are in place - and whether this is the debate Europe should be focusing on right now.
What are the implications of Trump's high tariff threats?
Isolationist policies are a serious mistake, Le Temps explains: “Globalisation has fallen out of favour. It has increased inequalities in the world and is partly responsible for global warming. This is only a tiny part of the bigger picture, but it is precisely what Donald Trump rode on during his campaign, promising, with his favourite phrase, to make America great again by barricading it behind its borders.
What is happening in Lebanon?
The situation in Lebanon has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. Israel's intensified air strikes against Hezbollah have killed hundreds of people and forced thousands more to flee their homes. Recent statements by the Israeli military have been interpreted as indications that a ground offensive is imminent. The Hezbollah militia has continued to fire missiles into northern Israel and, for the first time, at the greater Tel Aviv area. The US and EU have called for an immediate ceasefire.
Israel attacks Hezbollah: hundreds of victims in Lebanon
The pager attacks have left Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in particular in a very difficult position, says Dagens Nyheter: “Hezbollah controls Lebanon. It has turned its weapons on Lebanese opponents when necessary. But it avoids internal violence at all costs and exercises its power through its political alliances, mainly through various Christian and Druze groups.
An International Study of Factors Affecting Variability of Dosimetry Calculations, Part 3: Contribution from Calculating Absorbed Dose from Time-Integrated Activity
DISCUSSION This analysis focused on task 5 of the SNMMI 177Lu dosimetry challenge based on 2 177Lu-DOTATATE patient datasets with the aim of acquiring a better understanding of the variability and the sources of this variability in the last step of the dosimetry workflow, conversion of TIAs to ADs. We evaluated the use of OSVs, VSVs, local deposition method, and MC simulations.
Venezuelan elections: farewell to democracy?
Tygodnik Powszechny comments: “Unfortunately, this situation was to be expected. The opposition, with its icon María Corina Machado, posed a real threat to Maduro's socialist regime. Corina Machado had won the primaries in 2023 and received 92.5 percent of the vote, with a turnout of 64.88 percent. There is no doubt that she would have won the election. However, even before the election campaign began, she was prevented from running by court order without any grounds being given. ...

US election race: Biden quits, Harris set to run?
22 July 2024 US President Joe Biden has withdrawn as a candidate in the US presidential election in November: "While it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down," the 81-year-old explained. Over the past few weeks the doubts about his candidacy had grown ever louder, even within his own ranks. Europe's press looks at who will take up the baton.
Madrid, Dublin and Oslo to recognise Palestinian state
Things are being done in the wrong order, La Libre Belgique criticises: “How can we recognise the Palestinian state, which would be Israel's neighbour, if we don't even know who will govern it? ... The Jewish state cannot legitimately and reasonably accept that a recognised country can be led by a branch of Hamas or other terrorists, with the support of Iran, whose only goal is the extermination of Israel and the Jews.
How to cross validate your panel data in Python Original
An introduction to panel data cross validation using PanelSplit Motivation: As someone who works with panel data, I often need to perform cross validation. This involves training up to a certain point in time, testing on a subset of observations, training up to a further point in time, testing on a different subset of observations, and iteratively continuing this process on a panel data set. Sound familiar? This can be really frustrating to implement manually.

How to protect your fleet from fuel fraud
Fuel theft is an age-old problem for commercial fleets. What started as filling non-approved vehicles with company funds has now taken on various forms: card skimming, fuel siphoning, misuse of company cards, milage creeping, and more. As global tensions escalate across the world, fleets may be holding their breath as gas prices become more volatile. Fuel is a universal currency, so naturally, as gas prices rise, so does the risk for fuel theft.
The Hague: Israel rejects genocide charges
12 January 2024 Israel has defended itself before the International Court of Justice in The Hague against charges brought by South Africa that it is committing genocide against the Palestinians in its war against the radical Islamist Hamas organisation in the Gaza Strip. Israel's defence stated that the military action in the Gaza Strip constitutes self-defence against the terrorist Hamas, and that the suffering of civilians was part of their strategy.
The future of Ukraine: what is realistic?
13 December 2023 During Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's visit to Washington, US President Joe Biden expressed doubts regarding the financial aid blocked by the Republicans. In addition, he said the US would give Ukraine military support "as long as we can" rather than "for as long as necessary", which had been the stance up to now. In view of the deadlocked war situation, more voices in Europe's press are also casting about for new strategies for Kyiv and its partners.
Switch Up Your Tai Chi Training Environment - Here’s Why
I had to spend a couple of days at the beginning of the week taking my wife to a city about an hour away for training for a new job. I found a nearby neighborhood park, and passed the time practicing Tai Chi. The park had a basketball court which made for a perfect training space. As I was practicing it dawned on me that it has been well over a year since I’ve practiced on such a level, flat surface. This awareness got me to thinking about all of the benefits of training in different spaces.
Rethinking the 5 Reiki Precepts
I've made a lot of dramatic changes in my lifestyle over the past few years in an effort to lead a more sustainable and stress free life. I've closed down my gym, retired from personal training, rid myself of many possessions, and lived out of a converted van while travelling across the country to a place with a slower pace of life to buy some land and homestead on. In the ongoing struggle to overcome burnout and improve my health, I've re-ignited my reiki practice.
An International Study of Factors Affecting Variability of Dosimetry Calculations, Part 2: Overall Variabilities in Absorbed Dose
Abstract Dosimetry for personalized radiopharmaceutical therapy has gained considerable attention. Many methods, tools, and workflows have been developed to estimate absorbed dose (AD). However, standardization is still required to reduce variability of AD estimates across centers.
Longitudinal estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) modeling in long‐term renal function to inform clinical trial design in kidney transplantation
Estimated glomerular filtration rate eGFR was measured using the four-variable Modification of Diet in Renal Disease with a 186-serum creatinine coefficient (MDRD4) study equation with race information.24 The MDRD4 equation was chosen due to its accuracy in kidney transplant recipients, especially at the low and mid eGFR ranges typical in transplant recipients.25 The 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation26 was also explored and results were found to be...

Progress Monitoring in Florida: A New Solution to an Old Education Problem
Key Points Two decades after No Child Left Behind, testing and accountability systems have not evolved or adapted to give useful real-time information to teachers and students. There is a large gap between how well parents believe their children are doing (based on grades) and how well their children are actually doing (based on standardized tests).
EU summit: row over subsidy plans?
US protectionism poses a threat to the EU's economic policy, warns Der Standard: “The danger of a widespread exodus of companies from Europe may not be quite as great as German industry, in particular, claims. But behind it lies a deeper change of direction in US policy, one which is undermining the principle of open world markets - one of the pillars on which European prosperity rests. With globalisation in retreat, the world also faces an economic downturn. ...
Suspected spy balloon shot down: what comes next?
The Economist calls for robust communications channels: “That China spies on America, and vice versa, is no secret. The intelligence-gathering value of the balloon was limited, as even the Pentagon concedes. This matters, because when a rivalry grows as intense as that between America and China, small incidents risk relations spiralling out of control. ... With luck the balloon incident will not escalate. But something else like it could. ...
In Ucraina è l’ora di scegliere
Il dibattito sulle forniture di armi occidentali all’Ucraina riguarda anche una domanda fondamentale che dopo quasi un anno di guerra non ha ancora trovato risposta: qual è l’obiettivo della Nato? Impedire una vittoria russa, come la Germania e altri paesi europei hanno cautamente sostenuto? Oppure sconfiggere la Russia e aiutare l’Ucraina a vincere, come dicono la Polonia, i paesi baltici e ora anche gli Stati Uniti?

Italiens Regierung: Zum Glück gibt es die Finanzmärkte
Da Italien auf seine Schulden Zinsen zahlen muss, braucht es einen Primärüberschuss – muss also vor Zinszahlungen deutlich weniger ausgeben, als es einnimmt. Das ist in den vergangenen Jahren immer gelungen. Doch wenn in einer zukünftigen Koalitionsregierung tatsächlich die Steuern gesenkt, wie das die Lega fordert, und die Ausgaben erhöht werden, wie es die Fünf Sterne wollen, dann geht sich diese Rechnung nicht mehr aus. Dann explodiert das Budgetdefizit.
Leitl: "Das ist eine höchstgradige Gefährdung für Europa"
Am vergangenen Freitag hat Christoph Leitl die Führung der Wirtschaftskammer an Harald Mahrer abgegeben. Er bleibt Präsident von Eurochambres, dem Verband der Wirtschaftskammern in Europa – und beschäftigt sich dort mit europäischen Standort- und Handelsfragen. Leitl: Chinas Erfolg ist an sich keine Gefahr. Aber es kommt zu einer neuen Verteilung des Weltwirtschaftskuchens und damit auch des Weltwohlstands.
Nordkoreas Diktator spielt mit Trumps Traum vom Nobelpreis
Denn trotz des beidseitigen Friedenswillens sind die Interessen der USA und Nordkoreas noch unvereinbar. Washington will von Nordkorea die vollständige Aufgabe des Atomprogramms und sieht dies als Vorbedingung für eine Lockerung der Wirtschaftssanktionen. Pjöngjang will sofortige wirtschaftliche Erleichterungen, aber sein Arsenal möglichst lange erhalten – wahrscheinlich für immer.
Trumps Einladung zur atomaren Aufrüstung
Ein Diktator wird gelobt und hofiert, er darf in Kürze den amerikanischen Präsidenten treffen. Die brutale Unterdrückung der eigenen Bevölkerung ist diesem keine Erwähnung wert, ebenso wenig der Terror und die Wortbrüche früherer Jahre. Die andere Diktatur wird verteufelt, als korrupt und grausam angeprangert und mit neuen Sanktionen belegt. Ein Abkommen, an das man sich treu gehalten hat, wird von diesem Präsidenten zerrissen.
Eurovision Song Contest: Ein Sieg für Tel Aviv, nicht für Jerusalem
Natürlich hat auch Jerusalem liberale Seiten, aber das Leben wird immer mehr von der rasch wachsenden Ultraorthodoxie geprägt. Und der Nahost-Konflikt ist anders als in Tel Aviv allgegenwärtig, der Status der offiziell vereinten Stadt ein ständiger Streitpunkt. Die umstrittene Eröffnung der US-Botschaft in der Stadt am Montag ist ein Schlag ins Gesicht für die mehr als 300.000 palästinensischen Einwohner, die Ostjerusalem als Hauptstadt ihres Staates reklamieren.
