https://amzn.to/4o51rLCJabali Smith was a 6-yr-old in Berkeley, California when he was trafficked along with his sister over the border into Mexico and held captive by a messianic doomsday sex cult. SLAVE courageously and boldly chronicles his journey as a child slave; the escape and the eventual rise from the ashes of tragedy. A story of unimaginable suffering followed by the discovery of success, love, compassion and forgiveness.Jabali spent years being beaten, tortured, starved, sexualized, brainwashed, and confined to a dark closet in both Mexico and the United States. His disappearance and re-emergence years later with no alarms set off within our societal system represents the current fracture of communication allowing human trafficking to flourish into the fastest growing business & commodity in the World.Instead of remaining bitter, Jabali became a devoted, loving father and founder of The Well Child Foundation, serving children and their need for empowerment in a way that he never experienced as a child. SLAVE exposes not only the suffering of human trafficking victims but the indomitable spirit of survivors and all that is possible when faith survives the ultimate challenge.https://amzn.to/4o51rLCBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

But how can so many different cultures spanning so many years have almost the exact same representation of him?

Apparently, the experience can prove to be lethal.

Some are so spooked by the waters surrounding these islands that they refuse to go there. (Vanishings Around the Azores) *** Is it true that Bigfoot has abducted humans and run off with them?

Cyberthreats are everywhere, and while they may be inevitable, their impact can be manageable. Institutions who are prepared for cybersecurity disruptions are proactive and collaborative about their response. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton, Lisa Parrinello, FCCS VP of Risk Management & Insurance Services and Naomi Baumann, FCCS VP of Claims & Insurance Services. Together they discuss how Farm Credit's Captive Insurance Company is helping institutions strengthen their cyberdefenses and what boards of directors need to know to stay ahead of the cybersecurity game.    Episode Insights Include:   The bigger picture of cyberthreats Cyberthreats used to be considered an IT-only problem, but that isn't the case anymore.  These enterprise-wide issues demand board-level attention.  Ransomware, extortion, targeted financial systems and AI deep-fake impersonations are some of today's biggest cyberthreats.  The goal today isn't just protection, it's resilience. A prepared institution can respond and recover from cyberthreats no matter where they hit.    The role of Farm Credit's Captive Insurance Company As the captive, they provide institutions cyber insurance and management services that go beyond what commercial insurance markets can offer.  They offer tailored protection designed specifically for the unique cooperative structure of Farm Credit.  Collaborative claims management proactively responds to any incident or threat of incident.  Their strategic access to commercial markets allows them to purchase insurance as well.  Over the years, Captive has saved an average of $50 million in insurance coverage.  Consistent system-wide learning whenever instances occur.    Resilience tools and strategies  Resilience requires a multi-layered approach based on assents and security needs.  Threat detection and response pinpoint vulnerability, endpoint detection, and tabletop exercises.  Human-centric risk management and ongoing employee training are critical for cyber risk management.  Employees and people are always going to be the weakest link in cybersecurity.  Data protection and resilience in communications in sensitive information need to be encrypted and backup tested.  Cybersecurity is not an impenetrable armor, it is an anatomy with multiple systems working together to respond and continue operating in a culture of proactive risk management.    The pivotal role of the board  Directors need to prioritize an approved annual cyber risk manual.  Ongoing development and maintenance of a robust program is essential.  Boards should receive quarterly reports on threats, vulnerabilities and mitigation actions.  Cyber oversight needs to be integrated into business technology planning.  FCA should be notified within 36 hours of any cyber incident.    The culture of cybersecurity Institutions build resilience when everyone is involved.  Third party oversight and engagement with cyber-focused legal counsel is crucial.  Most breeches don't happen in bad systems, they happen when good people let down their guard.  Muscle memory kicks in when crisis hits, but only when preparation has occurred.  Ultimately, cybersecurity is everyone's business.    This podcast is powered by FCCS.   Resources   Connect with Lisa Parrinello — Lisa Parrinello   Connect with Naomi Baumann — Naomi Baumann   Get in touch   info@fccsconsulting.com   "The goal isn't just protection – it's resilience." — Naomi Baumann   "The Captive provides consistent system-wide learning whenever instances occur." —  Lisa Parrinello    "Human-centric risk management and ongoing employee training are critical for cyber risk management." — Naomi Baumann   "Employees and people are always going to be the weakest link in cybersecurity." — Naomi Baumann   "Even without a deep technical knowledge, boards can strengthen resilience by asking the right questions and staying engaged." —  Lisa Parrinello    "Institutions build resilience when everyone is involved." — Naomi Baumann   Resilience is just as much about people as it is about systems." — Naomi Baumann

The California Supreme Court's long-awaited "Taking Offense" decision on gender pronouns in elder care facilities introduces a new “captive audience” exception to the First Amendment. Tim worries this new judicial carve out may creep to other forums; Jeff is unperturbed. Tim also shares insights from the Federalist Society National Conference, before examining a significant appellate-fee ruling.Taking Offense v. State (Cal., Nov. 6, 2025, No. S270535) **holds that advocacy groups lack taxpayer standing under CCP §526a to challenge state laws, but still issued 100+ pages addressing the merits through a "captive audience" framework.Captive audience concerns: Tim highlights potential "mission creep" with a “captive audience” rationale, potentially extending beyond elder care facilities to courthouses, government offices, and other venues where First Amendment protections could be weakened.“Bloodthirsty originalism”: From the Federalist Society conference, Judge Bumatay advocated less deference to stare decisis in favor of constitutional fidelity, while Justices Barrett and Kavanaugh addressed courage and civility in legal practice.Discovery fee windfall: In Baer v. Tedder, the court authorized recovery of $113,000 in appellate attorney fees for successfully defending a $10,000 discovery sanction, creating economics similar to anti-SLAPP appeals.AI arbitration arrives: The American Arbitration Association announced a pilot program offering AI resolution of construction disputes with human oversight, signaling that AI's impact on legal practice may be just "a couple of years away" rather than decades.Oral argument mastery: Federal Circuit judges advised narrowing issues to increase credibility, welcoming judicial interruptions as opportunities, and viewing argument time as the court's time for conversation rather than presentation.Tune in for practical insights on appellate strategy, the evolving legal landscape, and how to prepare for significant changes in legal practice in the coming years.

Taking Thoughts CaptiveThe Story of Martin Luther's Stand #RTTBROS #Nightlight"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds)." — 2 Corinthians 10:3-4Last night we talked about those automatic negative thoughts, those ANTs that swarm through our minds. Tonight, I want to tell you about a man who understood this battle better than most: Martin Luther.Now, Luther was a monk who struggled terribly with his thoughts. He would spend hours in confession, sometimes confessing the same sins over and over because his mind kept telling him he wasn't truly forgiven, that he wasn't good enough, that God couldn't possibly love someone like him. His superior finally told him to stop coming to confession unless he had committed murder or blasphemy, something real to confess.But here's where Luther's story gets interesting. When he finally discovered the truth of justification by faith, when he understood that we're made right with God through faith in Christ alone, not by our works, everything changed. He realized that those thoughts that kept condemning him were lies. They were real thoughts, yes, but they weren't true thoughts.Luther used to say that you can't keep the birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair. Sound familiar? He understood what Paul was teaching in 2 Corinthians 10, that we have weapons mighty through God for pulling down strongholds, for taking thoughts captive.Here's the thing about taking thoughts captive: you can't do it by just trying harder to think positive. That's not what Paul is talking about. He's talking about confronting those automatic negative thoughts with the truth of God's Word. It's not about pretending the thoughts aren't there or trying to force yourself to feel differently. It's about recognizing a lie when you hear one and standing your ground with truth.When that thought shows up telling you you're worthless, you don't have to argue with it or try to convince yourself otherwise. You just need to know what God says: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people" (1 Peter 2:9). That's not positive thinking, that's truth thinking.When that automatic thought tells you you're all alone and nobody cares, you don't have to try to talk yourself out of feeling lonely. You just need to remember what Jesus said: "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee" (Hebrews 13:5). Again, not positive thinking, truth thinking.Luther learned to fight his ANTs with Scripture. When those condemning thoughts would swarm, he would literally speak truth out loud. He'd say, "I am baptized. I am God's child. Christ died for me." Simple truths that cut through the lies like a sword.You see, you can't control the first thought that pops into your head, but you can control what you do with it. You can take it captive. You can hold it up against God's Word and say, "Does this match what God says about me? Does this match what God says about my situation?" If it doesn't, then it's a lie dressed up as a thought, and it needs to be taken prisoner.Tomorrow night, we'll talk about what to do for the long haul, because this isn't a one-time battle. But tonight, practice taking one thought captive. Just one. When that ANT shows up, grab hold of it with a truth from God's Word and don't let it run wild.Let's pray: Father, give us courage to confront the lies in our minds with Your truth. Help us to be quick to recognize when our thoughts are not lining up with Your Word. Teach us to fight with the weapon of truth. In Jesus' name, Amen

The Outer Realm welcomes Reinhard Denke and E. B. David Date: November 5th, 2025 EP: 637 TOPIC: Our Guests will be discussing their book " The Orb Incident - A True Account by E.B. David The Book: In the summer of 1982, something extraordinary happened in a silent forest of upstate New York—something that would alter one man's life forever. More than four decades later, screenwriter Reinhard Denke unexpectedly uncovered a long-hidden truth when a casual acquaintance, E. B. David, shared the harrowing details of that night for the very first time. What began as a simple recollection of a strangely glowing object soon unraveled into a chilling and deeply personal account of alien contact. Through an in-depth interview filled with probing questions and startling revelations, E. B. David describes not only the encounter itself, but also the profound psychological and physical effects that have haunted—and in some cases, enlightened—him ever since. Part confessional, part investigation, this gripping narrative offers a rare, intimate glimpse into one man's extraordinary experience with the unknown—and the lasting impact it has had on his life. This is the untold story of E. B. David. And it all began with a light in the sky.

In this episode, Vermont Captive Insurance Association (VCIA) President Ian Davis joins The Edge of Risk podcast by IRMI to unpack how captive insurance legislation evolves in one of the world's most established domiciles. Mr. Davis explains the core pillars of "captive-friendly legislation," emphasizing clarity, flexibility, and responsiveness as foundational to Vermont's regulatory philosophy. He also reflects on the state's long-standing commitment to aligning oversight with real-world risk, ensuring both innovation and integrity remain central to the captive framework. The conversation explores how Vermont's legislative process is rooted in collaboration among regulators, lawmakers, and industry participants, supported by continuous dialogue, trust, and transparency. Mr. Davis also highlights recent developments, including growth in cell structures and adaptive regulation for emerging risks such as artificial intelligence; environmental, social, and governance; and evolving tax considerations. Finally, he shares how captive owners and service providers can engage with VCIA's advocacy committee to help shape future priorities.

In this episode of The Edge of Risk podcast by IRMI, host Joel Appelbaum speaks with Jim DeVoe-Talluto, assistant director of captive insurance at the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation, about what organizations need to know when applying to form a captive insurance company. Drawing on more than 2 decades of regulatory experience, Mr. DeVoe-Talluto outlines the steps applicants should expect, the most common barriers to approval, and the importance of a strong feasibility study and experienced advisers. Mr. DeVoe-Talluto also discusses Vermont's regulatory philosophy and why early planning, clarity of purpose, and strong executive buy-in significantly improve the chance of success. Whether you're exploring a first-time captive or seeking insight into regulator expectations in one of the world's largest captive domiciles, this conversation delivers timely, practical guidance directly from the source.

Nova Scotia Whale Sanctuary has officially received provincial approval, marking a monumental step toward creating Canada's first ocean refuge for retired whales. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin explains how this decision moves the Whale Sanctuary Project closer to reality, what challenges remain before the sanctuary opens, and why this could change the way the world cares for marine mammals. Andrew also dives into how the Whale Sanctuary Project built the foundation for this historic milestone through years of environmental assessment, scientific planning, and local engagement. He reflects on his own experiences as a marine biologist and communicator, sharing why the sanctuary represents more than just a safe haven for whales—it's a sign that humanity is learning to live in balance with the ocean once again.

"The biggest shift was the consolidation that happened with the insurance carriers themselves. From 25 or more carriers to just four national carriers." - John RutledgeHow did health insurance get so broken? My guest this week, 40-year industry veteran John Rutledge of Marsh McLennan Agency, joins the show to walk us through the last 40 years of decisions that led us to the consolidated, expensive, and frustrating market we have today.John explains how the market went from over 25 competing carriers to just four national players. We discuss how the rise of carrier-owned PPOs squeezed out competition, and how the ACA later standardized coverage, locking employers into the "Buca box" with painfully limited options.But this isn't just a history lesson. We also discuss the solution that has emerged from the ashes of the old system: the explosion of self-funding and alternative risk models like captives that empower employers to finally break free.Tune in for a masterclass on how health insurance was broken, and more importantly, how we can start to fix it.Chapters:(00:00:00) How Health Insurance Was Broken Over The Last 40 Years (00:05:01) Why Self-Funding Has Exploded Since the ACA (00:09:58) How We Went From 25+ Carriers to Just 4 (00:12:56) The "Buca Box": Trapped with No Options (00:31:04) The Rise of Captives as an Alternative (00:40:31) Why Engaged Employers Win in a Captive (01:00:56) A Call to Action for Employers & AdvisorsKey Links for Social:@SelfFunded on YouTube for video versions of the podcast and much more - https://www.youtube.com/@SelfFundedListen/watch on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1TjmrMrkIj0qSmlwAIevKA?si=068a389925474f02Listen on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/self-funded-with-spencer/id1566182286Follow Spencer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencer-smith-self-funded/Follow Spencer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/selffundedwithspencer/

Marineland beluga whales remain at the center of a heated national debate after Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans denied the park's request to export 30 whales to a marine theme park in China. In this episode, Andrew Lewin explores the unfolding crisis, from the park's claims of financial hardship to the legal, ethical, and political questions surrounding the whales' future. Marineland beluga whales could face an uncertain fate as the park warns it may not be able to care for them, raising the specter of euthanasia. Andrew breaks down government responses, animal welfare group actions, and emerging relocation proposals including the Nova Scotia Whale Sanctuary Project and Inuit-led plans. This episode unpacks the clash between law, profit, and responsibility while asking the essential question: who should ensure the whales' welfare?

Marineland Beluga exports have been denied by Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans, igniting national debate over animal welfare, legality, and ethics. In this episode, Andrew Lewin breaks down what the 2019 law banning cetacean captivity means, why DFO refused Marineland's permit to sell 30 belugas to China, and what options exist for the facility and the animals now caught in limbo. Marineland Beluga care has become an urgent issue as the park claims it cannot afford to maintain the whales, warning of potential euthanasia without government help. Andrew explores whether Marineland should be required to care for the animals it profited from, or whether public intervention is necessary to ensure the whales' welfare. This episode blends law, compassion, and marine science to uncover what ethical responsibility looks like when conservation meets crisis.

23-year-old college student Mackenzie Lueck texted her mom after landing safely in Salt Lake City — but she never made it home. Hours later, she vanished after meeting a man she'd been talking to online. When Mackenzie's burned remains were discovered in a shallow grave, the truth about her killer sent shockwaves across the country. From a fake online persona to a secret t0rture room and a horrifying cover-up, this case is one of the most disturbing we've ever covered.
