Mr. X ist uns dicht auf den Fersen. Während sein schwerer Schritt durch die Flure hallt, müssen wir die Polizeistation ein letztes Mal durchkämmen, um das fehlende Elektronikteil zu finden. Nur so lässt sich die Arrestzelle öffnen – und damit der Weg zur Parkkarte freimachen. Endlich draußen. Für einen kurzen Moment atmen wir die kalte Luft der Straßen von Raccoon City. Doch die Erleichterung währt nicht lange: Im ikonischen Waffenladen von Robert Kendo werden wir Zeugen einer herzzerreißenden Szene, die deutlich macht, was dieser Ausbruch wirklich gekostet hat.Zusammen mit Ada geht es weiter in die dunkle Kanalisation der Stadt. Zwischen Moder, Schatten und einem gigantischen mutierten Alligator treffen wir auf die unnachgiebige Annette Birkin. Die Lage eskaliert, Schüsse fallen – Leon wird schwer verletzt.Jetzt liegt alles bei Ada Wong. Kann sie übernehmen, wenn jede Kugel zählt und der Abgrund näher rückt?Viel Spaß beim Hören wünscht euer DttD - Team

Hello to you listening in Samish, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Imagine this: a storyteller in a room full of litigators. No! Not alligators - litigators. Trial attorneys who are curious about learning the tools to engage with their own narrative so that they could connect to the stories of their plaintiff clients - not as lawyers but as people. Once they know how to access their own stories they can engage the experiences of the jury, find common ground with the plaintiff's story and, be well on their way to winning the trial.Over 30 years my clients have learned that before you tell someone else's story be very clear about your own. Do the hard work of an archeological dig on your narrative. Once we understand how our narrative shapes and re-shapes our life, our purpose, the relationships we have with others we are well on our way to knowing what we stand for, what we won't stand for, and how we can be of service. Our story can become one of advocacy, leadership, and healing. Our story can shift attitudes, behaviors, even cultures.CURIOUS TO LEARN MORE?

Vous avez dit "bizarre" ? C'est bien normal. Voici la première série de Baleine sous Gravillon consacrée à des espèces animales extraordinairement étranges.Dans cette première série, Marc et Marie-Juliette se penchent sur 5 animaux à l'anatomie hors du commun.Voici le dernier épisode de cette première série dédiée aux bizarres. L'occasion de finir sur un festival d'étrangetés avec le Moloch, un lézard australien (ça y est, on quitte l'Amérique du Sud !) dont le nom vient d'une divinité moyen-orientale maléfique mangeuse... d'enfants.Quel rapport entre les deux ? Probablement les origines désertiques de ces deux créatures, et puis l'aspect peu accueillant de notre reptile, qui aurait pu rappeler à son baptiseur, le zoologiste britannique John E. Gray, le côté repoussant du démon.Dans les illustrations, Moloch est en effet souvent représenté avec une tête de vache. Or, notre petit lézard est intégralement recouvert... de piquants. Ceci lui permet de se défendre contre les prédateurs.Autre fait d'arme, le Moloch possède au niveau de la nuque une petite boule de peau lui faisant office de deuxième tête. Ce masque fait croire aux prédateurs habitués à attaquer leurs proies par derrière qu'ils sont observés. Enfin, il marche dans le désert en alternant les pas rapides et les stops pour être le discret possible (probablement au cas-où un Ver des sables traînerait dans le coin...).Au-delà de ses capacités de défense, le Moloch est parfaitement adapté à la vie dans les milieux arides. En effet, il possède un système au niveau de ses pattes qui absorbe le peu d'eau disponible, et qui l'apporte par capillarité à sa bouche !Attention, le Moloch n'est pas à confondre avec le Crapaud cornu, un autre lézard (comme son nom ne l'indique pas), qui, pour faire fuir les prédateurs, a une technique bien à lui : il crache du sang toxique... par les yeux.___

Ralf is terug uit Orlando en deelt met ons zijn avonturen. Michael Eisner, oud CEO van The Walt Disney Company, stond deze week uitgebreid in de aandacht met een uitgebreid interview.

In this lively episode of Reading With Your Kids, we're celebrating the power of picture books and biographies to turn kids into lifelong readers. First, Jed welcomes author Brooke Hartman and illustrator Michael Slack to talk about their exuberant new picture book Exca Gator—a swampy, construction-site romp starring an alligator who drives an excavator. Brooke shares how the idea sprang from her daughter's adorable mispronunciation of "excavator," and how her own childhood around construction equipment inspired all the rumbling, clanking onomatopoeia in the text. The story follows a super‑excited alligator who wants to do everything himself, only to learn an important lesson about teamwork: "we build it best when we're a crew." Michael takes us behind the scenes of the art, explaining how he did more than 100 sketches before finally "finding" the main character—thanks to a photo of a baby alligator with a huge smile. He and Brooke discuss the unusual author–illustrator relationship in traditional publishing, why a little creative distance can be helpful, and how picture books are really a three‑way collaboration between author, illustrator, and reader. In the second half, Jed talks with author–illustrator Selina Alko about her picture book biography Otherwise Known as Judy the Great, celebrating the childhood of beloved writer Judy Blume. Selena describes discovering Judy's early life in New Jersey, her family's experience during World War II, and how Judy's honest, emotionally rich stories helped generations of kids feel seen. They explore how biographies can comfort young readers, show them that heroes also face hardship, and inspire kids to follow their own dreams.

À l'instar du Chevrotain, sa drôle de mine n'est pas son seul fait d'armes : il possède également des moyens de défense des plus... marquants. D'abord, des immenses ocelles de papillon sur ses ailes ; ensuite une odeur nauséabonde qu'il dégage quand il ses sent menacé. Eh oui, le Fulgore est un insecte péteur ! Enfin, il se distingue également sur le plan des amours : Monsieur se fait percussionniste professionnel lors de la saison de reproduction, et dans les années 70, un journaliste colombien a répandu une rumeur selon laquelle la morsure du Fulgore était mortelle pour les humains si l'on ne se soigne pas avec un rapport sexuel effectué dans les 24 heures... ___

In Week 2 of our World Builders series, CJ Ward teaches from Ephesians 4:29 and challenges us to examine the condition of our speech. The Bible warns against “unwholesome” talk—language that is corrupt, decaying, or rotten. Our words are never neutral. They either build up or slowly break down. If words build worlds, what kind of world are your words creating? Big Idea: Corrupt words don't just damage conversations—they slowly rot relationships, communities, and our own hearts.

It's the official day of romance (at least according to Hallmark Cards). Valentine's Day bring up feelings of love and adoration, moments of affection, gifts to show one's heartfelt emotions for another. But February 14th doesn't always bring the warm and fuzzies. Sometimes the day brings tragedy, heartbreak, or just something of the bizarre and strange.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:10.731 = A Freak Love Story00:11:12.851 = Ghost Love Stories ***00:27:41.588 = Bloody Story Behind Valentine's Day ***00:32:00.771 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakHELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“A Freak Love Story” by Rachel Souerbry for Ranker.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4kr4ep45“Ghost Love Stories” posted at NotebookOfGhosts.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/345vwf54, and BurroughsOfTheDead.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4hcjbps8“The Bloody Story Behind Valentine's Day” by Avani Raj for ED Times: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/c759fnnyWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Chinese conservationists have worked hard to protect the critically endangered Chinese alligator, creating new habitats for them after significant alterations made most of their Yangtze River home unsuitable. Thanks to the power of GPS technology, we now have some fascinating insights into how they are using the wetlands they are being reintroduced to, and it's mixed news. We follow that chat up with two new species of sand swimming skinks from Madagascar, and some big news from Tom about a brand new mammal.

Show NotesAt NAMM 2026, Sean Martin sits down with Chuck Tennin, the President and CEO of Big Fish Music and Big Fish Music Publishing Group, for a candid conversation about the role of AI in the music industry and why the human element remains irreplaceable. Known as "The Big Fish" and "The Alligator," Chuck has spent more than five decades working as an engineer, record producer, music publisher, and consultant, and he pulls no punches when it comes to the limits of technology in creative work.Chuck draws a sharp line between AI as a tool and AI as a replacement for human creativity. He points to organizations like ASCAP, BMI, and the Recording Academy as allies in the fight to protect the creative process, arguing that AI cannot replicate the feel, the instinct, and the emotional investment that go into producing a record. For Chuck, the difference between producing music and producing a record is everything: a record has to connect with an audience on a level that no algorithm can manufacture.The conversation takes listeners through Chuck's journey from two-track analog recording to the digital era of Pro Tools, exploring how each technological leap brought efficiency but never fully captured the warmth and authenticity of tape. He reflects on the critical distinction between an MP3 and a WAV file, between convenience and quality, and between what sounds good enough and what sounds like a record.Chuck also shares hard-earned wisdom about the business side of music: the perseverance required, the reality that 90% of aspiring artists fail, and the belief in oneself that separates survivors from those who walk away. Drawing on stories from legendary artists he has worked with over the decades, he reminds listeners that every big name started in the same place and climbed out of the same struggle.This is a conversation about what technology can assist with and what it can never touch: the soul of music and the humans who create it.HostSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine, Studio C60, and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/GuestChuck Tennin, President and CEO of Big Fish Music and Big Fish Music Publishing Group | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuck-tennin-3468b6105/ResourcesThe NAMM Show 2026 is taking place from January 20-24, 2026 | Anaheim Convention Center, Southern California — Follow our coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/the-namm-show-2026-namm-music-conference-music-technology-event-coverage-anaheim-californiaMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/Keywordschuck tennin, big fish music, sean martin, AI in music, analog vs digital recording, record producer, music publishing, Pro Tools, ASCAP, BMI, Recording Academy, NAMM 2026, music industry, human creativity, songwriting, music, creativity, art, artist, musician, music evolves, music podcast, music and technology podcastMore From Sean MartinMore from Music Evolves: https://www.seanmartin.com/music-evolves-podcastMusic Evolves on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTRJ5du7hFDXjiugu-uNPtWMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/On Location with Sean and Marco: https://www.itspmagazine.com/on-locationITSPmagazine YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!

In this podventure, we discuss the episode “A Day in the Life,” in which Whit recounts a tale of when a tale he wrote about Odyssey was turned into a film. Along the way, we learn how anything can happen in the world of make-believe. Also, Hollywood stereotypes, sabotage, and the Odyssey that lives within us all.Note: This episode was recorded before Focus on the Family announced they were making an Adventures in Odyssey film! You can check out details about this theatrical animated film on Youtube.

La semana pasada hubo una audiencia en un tribunal en Florida sobre una demanda sobre las violaciones a los derechos de inmigrantes en la prisión de inmigrantes Alligator Alcatraz, en Florida, la cual es administrada por las autoridades locales. Amnistía Internacional reporta que la situación no ha cambiado desde su más reciente reporte, publicado a mediados de diciembre pasado, el cual documenta hacinamiento, atención médica inapropiada, ligares para aislamiento y complicaciones para que inmigrantes puedan coordinarse con sus abogados. Mary Kapron, investigadora de Amnistía Internacional, aborda detalles de los hallazgos y explica la importancia de la demanda liderada por la Unión Estadounidense por las Libertades Civiles (ACLU).

Rebekah reflects on her takeaways from Claude the Alligator's recent funeral, and Nicole shares her excitement about a potential step into publishing. Together, they round out the episode by exploring local “On This Day” articles from 25, 50, 75, and 100 years ago.

It's gator time, folks! It seems like we should've already covered this topic, but, nope, this is our first ever episode on the American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis), and we've got two ringers to help: Daniel returns (our Field Guide host who moved to Florida last year) and he's joined by his mentor in all things swamp-related, Chip Campbell. Chip spent twenty years running Okefenokee Adventures, leading interpretive tours in the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, and his knowledge of alligator natural history and ecology runs deep.Thanks to our Patrons, this episode is also an on-the-road joint. The guys are deep in the Florida Everglades on a multi-day paddling trip, and they take a break at camp to talk with Chip about all things alligator — with a special focus on separating gator myths from reality.And, unfortunately for those of you crushing on Steve, this one's 100% Steve-free.This episode was recorded on Dec. 31, 2025 at Watson's Place campsite in Everglades National Park.Episode Notes and LinksAlligators, metabolism, and the “dog comparison”During the episode, Chip mentioned a study suggesting that several alligators could be maintained on roughly the same caloric intake as a single dog. We were not able to locate a study that makes that specific numerical comparison. However, the underlying idea is strongly supported by research on alligator physiology: American alligators have extremely low metabolic rates compared to warm-blooded mammals because they are ectothermic and do not spend energy maintaining body temperature. Classic physiological work shows that adult alligators can have daily energy expenditures that are only a small fraction of those of similarly sized mammals, making informal comparisons like this directionally accurate even if the exact ratio is anecdotal rather than experimental. Source: Coulson, R. A. (1989). Biochemistry and physiology of alligator metabolism in vivo. Integrative and Comparative Biology, 29(3), 921–934. https://doi.org/10.1093/icb/29.3.921Freshwater “sipping” — the study behind the observation The behavior Chip describes is documented in a study by Nifong and Lowers, which examined how coastal alligators use estuarine habitats. The authors note that after heavy rainfall, a thin layer of freshwater can temporarily sit on top of saltier water, and alligators will take advantage of this by drinking from the surface. This helps them manage hydration and salt balance in brackish environments, despite lacking the salt-excreting glands found in crocodiles. Source: Nifong, J. C., & Lowers, R. H. (2017). Reciprocal intraguild predation between Alligator mississippiensis and elasmobranchs in the southeastern United States. Southeastern Naturalist, 16(3), 383–396.Alligator growth vs. ageChip addressed the myth that alligators continue to grow throughout their life. Echoing what he reported, research on American alligators shows that although hatchlings and juveniles grow rapidly, their rate of growth slows substantially as they get older, and studies indicate they reach near-maximum body size well before the end of their lives. Long-term data suggest many alligators stop adding significant length by roughly 25–35 years of age, and more recent work has revised the classic idea of indefinite growth toward a pattern of determinate growth with a growth plateau in adulthood. Human harvest of alligators in LouisianaAs Chip said, Louisiana supports the largest wild harvest program for the American alligator in the United States, with more than 2,000 licensed hunters routinely harvesting an estimated 30,000–35,000 wild alligators annually under a regulated tagging system. In contrast, other states such as Florida have had regulated harvest programs with substantially lower annual take.” Sources: Joanen et al. (2021), Evaluation of Effects of Harvest on Alligator Populations in Louisiana, Journal of Wildlife Management; Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Alligator Annual Report (2019–2020); Hines (SEAFWA) status report on Florida alligators.Fatal Alligator AttacksIn this episode, Chip discusses the history of fatal alligator-human conflicts, highlighting the 1973 Sharon Holmes incident as the first "fully confirmed" fatal attack in modern records. While the Holmes incident is often cited as the definitive first case, there was an earlier death that some consider to be the first modern fatality. Historical records show why Chip's reference to the Holmes case being the first “fully confirmed” case is accurate:Sharon Holmes (1973): On August 16, 1973, 16-year-old Sharon Holmes was killed while swimming at Oscar Scherer State Park. This is widely cited as the first fully confirmed fatality because of the absolute nature of the evidence: the attack was witnessed by bystanders, and a subsequent necropsy of the 11-foot 3-inch alligator found conclusive physical remains. This event marked a turning point in how state agencies, like the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), tracked and verified alligator-related deaths.Allen Rice (1957): While most official FWC lists of fatal attacks begin in 1973, the 1957 death of 9-year-old Allen Rice in Eau Gallie is often mentioned as an earlier case. However, it is technically categorized as presumed. Rice went missing while fishing, and though his body was recovered with injuries consistent with an alligator and a large gator was seen nearby, there were no direct witnesses to the strike.

Morgan McDonald (aka “Chicken Boy”) joins Elise to talk through a change in coaching, his return to racing at the World Cross Country Championships, and how he's approaching training and competition in 2026. Morgan unpacks representing Australia in Tallahassee, the chaos of a feature-filled cross-country course (yes, including the alligator logs!), and what it meant to wear the green and gold again. He also opens up about the tough decision to step away from the On Athletics Club to take a more individualised approach to his training. Now reunited with college coach Mick Byrne, he shares why trust, patience and a more collaborative training model are central to this new phase, guided by the mantra “start early, progress slow.” We also dive into NCAA glory days in Wisconsin, injury setbacks, why he's gone a little anti-Strava in 2026, as well as and some big goals ahead, including the Commonwealth Games and the road to the LA Olympics in 2028. Plus: coffee orders, book club scheduling sagas, adventures with partner Sinta, double threshold chat, and an elite lunch recommendation. A fun-filled chat to kick off the year! -- Morgan McDonald is an Australian distance runner originally from Sydney, and now based in Boulder, Colorado. A former NCAA champion at the University of Wisconsin, Morgan won the NCAA cross-country title in 2018 and completed the rare indoor 3000m/5000m double in 2019. He has represented Australia at the Olympic Games, Commonwealth Games and World Championships, and is a regular member of national teams across track, road and cross-country.

In November 1998, Shandelle Maycock trusted a man she knew from church, Harrel Braddy. What began as an uncomfortable acquaintance quickly turned into a violent kidnapping. Braddy attacked Shandelle inside her apartment, choking her unconscious multiple times before forcing both her and her five year old daughter, Quantisha “Candy” Maycock, into his car.When the pair tried to escape, Braddy forced Shandelle into the trunk and drove her to a remote area where he left her for dead. She survived and was able to get help. Her daughter did not.For nearly two days, Braddy refused to tell police where Candy was, sending search teams in the wrong direction. When he finally spoke, he led detectives to Alligator Alley in South Florida, an area lined with canals known to contain alligators. He admitted he left the child alive near the water. Candy's body was later found floating in a canal. The medical examiner confirmed she suffered blunt force injuries and alligator bites while still alive.In 2007, Braddy was convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to death by an eleven to one jury vote. That sentence was later overturned after Florida changed its death penalty laws to require unanimous jury decisions. Now, more than twenty five years after Candy's death, Braddy is back in court under new sentencing rules that again allow non unanimous verdicts.At seventy six years old, he faces the possibility of the death penalty once more, raising painful questions about justice, accountability, and whether any sentence can ever match the cruelty of this crime.

Tonight we bring you six terrifying Sasquatch encounters from across America, spanning six decades and six different states. These are the stories that witnesses carried in silence for years, sometimes decades, before finally sharing what they experienced in the wilderness.We begin in the redwood forests of Northern California in nineteen sixty-three, where a young logger named Harold Vance comes face to face with something that will haunt him for the rest of his life. From there we travel to the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State in nineteen seventy-seven, where a family vacation turns into a nightmare that three children will never forget.The hills of eastern Kentucky provide the backdrop for our third encounter in nineteen eighty-four, when a veteran hunter with forty years of woods experience meets something that proves just how little he actually knew.We then head south to the swamps of central Florida in nineteen ninety-two, where a commercial fisherman discovers that alligators aren't the apex predators he thought they were.Our fifth story takes us to the farmland of southern Ohio in two thousand and five, where a third-generation farmer learns the truth behind his grandfather's warnings about the woodland at the edge of his property.And finally, we venture into the San Juan Mountains of Colorado in two thousand and sixteen, where a group of experienced hikers encounters not only a massive creature circling their camp in the darkness, but mysterious lights in the sky that seem somehow connected to what stalks them below.Six witnesses. Six encounters. Six lives changed forever. The wilderness keeps secrets, and tonight we're sharing some of them with you.

Long before Disney, Universal and SeaWorld were attracting millions of visitors, the St. Augustine Alligator Farm was THE place for adventure.

In this episode of The LEO Podcast, We start with the U.S. government's decision to indefinitely pause the Diversity Visa Lottery, unpacking why the program is being targeted and what the freeze means for thousands of people who rely on one of the few remaining legal pathways to permanent residency. Next, we head to the Florida Everglades to talk about Alligator Alcatraz, the immigration detention center many believe is closed, but isn't. Kevin shares the story of the small group of protesters who stayed behind after the media left, becoming an unexpected support system for families searching for answers. Finally, we zoom out to the Caribbean, where the U.S. Coast Guard is pursuing and seizing oil tankers linked to Venezuela, escalating sanctions enforcement into a tense geopolitical standoff with major implications for Latin America, global energy, and regional stability.  BONUS EPISODES Patreon: ✨www.patreon.com/latinamericaneo✨ 

Nate Williams talks with Anina Swan about her book "Alligator in the Ocean." She tells the inspirational true crime story exposing the dark double life of a seemingly respectable citizen who preyed upon defenseless children for nearly four decades. From the early 1950s to the late 1980s, he hid his life of crime behind a facade of trustworthiness, leaving a trail of trauma on vulnerable lives as his landmark.Anina's website: https://www.alligatorintheocean.com/

Crocodiles and alligators are large reptiles that have lived on Earth since the time of the dinosaurs. They both have tough, scaly skin, sharp teeth, and strong jaws for catching food like fish, birds, and mammals. Crocodiles and alligators are excellent swimmers and can hide in the water with only their eyes and nostrils showing. Even though they look alike, they are not the same animal. Alligators usually live in freshwater, while many crocodiles can live in saltwater. This video explores where they live, what they eat, and how they survive as top predators in their environments.

In this episode, I'm taking you with me on a peaceful Florida river… right up to the moment my kayak bumped over what I thought was a floating log. Except it wasn't a log. It was a massive mama alligator. But the most surprising part of the story isn't the alligator. It's what my brain did in the exact moment of danger. Instead of panicking, screaming, or flipping into the water, my mind calmly told me, “Huh. I didn't know alligators shed their skin like that.” This wasn't denial. It wasn't shock. It was dissociation — the brain's built-in survival mechanism that protects you from overwhelming reality when you're not safe enough to process it. This is exactly the same process that happens when you are dealing with covert narcissistic abuse. In this episode, I break down: Why your brain lies to you in life-threatening or emotionally threatening moments How dissociation works inside the nervous system during fight-or-flight Why my body reacted instantly but my mind couldn't accept what I was seeing How this exact same process happens in covert narcissistic abuse Why survivors don't “see the truth” until after they're safe How the brain comes back online once danger is over What completing the stress cycle looks like in real healing The alligator story is funny now — but what it reveals about trauma responses is powerful.If you've ever wondered why you stayed, why you froze, or why you couldn't see the abuse clearly until later, this episode will finally make sense of it. Your brain wasn't failing you. It was saving you.
