In the early morning hours of July 14, 1966, Chicago police responded to a call about a woman screaming for help at a townhouse in Chicago's Jeffery Manor neighborhood. When they arrived, they found student nurse Cora Amurao outside the home she shared with eight other student nurses, all of whom had been strangled or stabbed that night by an unknown intruder, while Cora hid underneath her bed. Considered at the time to be a “crime of the century,” the student nurse murders shocked and terrified Chicago residents all across the city. Not only had one man managed to brutally murder eight people, but he had also managed to escape and was loose somewhere in the city. At the time, racially motivated riots had broken out across the city, making the already-burdened Chicago Police Department even more strained when it came to investigating the case.After an intense manhunt that lasted several days, investigators arrested Richard Speck, a twenty-four-year-old unemployed drifter with a criminal history. There was a strong amount of evidence that linked Speck directly to the murders, including his own confession, so when he went to trial, his lawyer tried unsuccessfully to argue Speck was not legally sane at the time of the murders. Unfortunately, the truth was something far worse: Speck killed eight women for no reason whatsoever.ReferencesAltman, Jack, and Marvin Ziporyn. 1967.

⬥GUEST⬥Andrew Morgan, Chief Information Security Officer | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmorgancism/⬥HOST⬥Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥The cybersecurity community has long recognized an uncomfortable truth: the gap between well-resourced enterprises and underfunded organizations keeps widening. This divide isn't just about money; it's about survivability. When a small business, school, or healthcare provider is hit with a major breach, the likelihood of permanent closure is exponentially higher than for a large enterprise.As host of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, I've seen this imbalance repeatedly — and the conversation with Andrew Morgan underscores why it persists and what can be done about it.The Problem: Structural ImbalanceLarge enterprises operate with defined budgets, mature governance, and integrated security operations centers. They can afford redundancy, talent, and tooling. Meanwhile, small and mid-sized organizations are often left with fragmented controls, minimal staff, and reliance on external vendors or managed providers.The result is a “have and have not” world. The “haves” can detect, contain, and recover. The “have nots” often cannot. When they are compromised, the impact isn't just reputational — it can mean financial collapse or service disruption that directly affects communities.The Hidden Costs of ComplexityEven when smaller organizations invest in technology, they often fall into the trap of overtooling without strategy. Multiple, overlapping systems create noise, false confidence, and operational fatigue. Morgan describes this as a symptom of viewing cybersecurity as a subset of IT rather than as a business enabler.Simplification is key. A rationalized platform approach — even if not best-of-breed — can deliver better visibility and sustainability than a patchwork of disconnected tools. The goal should not be perfection; it should be proportionate protection aligned with business risk.The Solution: Culture, Collaboration, and ContinuityCyber resilience starts with people and culture. As Morgan puts it, programs must be driven by culture, informed by risk, and delivered through people, process, and technology. Security can't succeed in isolation from the organization's purpose or its people.The Australian CISO Tribe provides a real-world model for collaboration. Its members share threat intelligence, peer validation, and practical experiences — a living example of collective defense in action. Whether formalized or ad-hoc, these networks give security leaders context, community, and shared strength.Getting Back to BasicsPractical resilience isn't glamorous. It's about getting the basics right — consistent patching, logging, phishing-resistant authentication, verified backups, and tested recovery plans. It's about ensuring that, if everything fails, you can still get back up.When security becomes a business-as-usual practice rather than a project, organizations begin to move from reactive defense to proactive resilience.The TakeawayBridging the cybersecurity divide doesn't require endless budgets. It requires prioritization, simplification, and partnership. The “have nots” may never mirror enterprise scale, but they can adopt enterprise discipline — and that can make all the difference between temporary disruption and permanent failure.⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/andrewmorgancism_last-night-i-was-fortunate-enough-to-spend-activity-7383972144507994112-V3Zr/⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

Leah and Dr. Shelly, both occupational therapists who have either earned or are working toward dual certification as BCBAs, join me to talk about the power and challenges of blending these two worlds. Believe it or not, there aren't even statistics on how many dual-certified professionals are out there—but the impact of this crossover is clear. Their work centers on collaboration with families and other professionals, finding common ground between OT and ABA.We talk about the funding and system barriers that can make integration tough, and how learning to understand each other's “jargon” helps break those walls down. As Dr. Shelly says, OTs and BCBAs are often working toward the same goals—they just use different words. Sometimes, you have to “massage the message” so everyone can connect and understand.Dr. Shelly also shares insight into the business and insurance side of implementation, while Leah highlights the importance of spreading the word about the tools ABA offers. Their message is simple: put the egos aside, keep listening, and stay open to learning from each other.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:The growing overlap between OT and ABAWhy collaboration starts with learning each other's “language”Navigating funding and system barriers that limit integrationPutting egos aside to focus on shared goals and learning from one anotherMentioned In This Episode:Is This My Child?: Sensory Integration SimplifiedCircle Care ServicesThe Autism Roundtable Podcast - Circle Care ServicesMy BCBA Life Podcast - Circle Care Services Join the ABA Speech Connection  ABA Speech: HomeRecoverycast: Mental Health & Addiction Recovery StoriesReal talk, real recovery, actually entertaining.

When Phil and Clara Dandy first saw the house on McMahon Road in Hinsdale, NY, in the spring of 1970, they thought they'd found the home they could spend the rest of their lives in. Since the mid-1960s, the Phil, Clara, and their four children had been vacationing in rural western New York, and the house represented everything they loved about the tranquil region of the state. Within the span of a few months, they'd bought the house and that summer, they began their new life in the country.Unfortunately for the Dandys, their new slower pace of life didn't last long. Within a few months of moving into what would become known as The Hinsdale House, the family was besieged by disembodied voices, inexplicable sounds, and the presence of ghostly apparitions. In time, what began as bizarre occurrences and disturbing encounters became a daily battle for the health and safety of Phil, Clara, and their children.Want to visit???

Ever found yourself at the vet swiping your card with one eye closed—just hoping the total isn't another $3,000 surprise? You're not alone.In this episode, Brittany and Christina pull back the curtain on the real cost of pet ownership — the emotional love story that often comes with a hefty price tag. From emergency surgeries to “Can I just pull them out myself?” moments, they dig into how far we go (and how much we spend) for the animals we adore.They chat about the emotional side of spending on pets, how the industry has exploded into a multi-billion-dollar machine, and why it's so hard to draw the line between love and financial logic when it comes to our fur-babies.If you've ever questioned whether that vet visit, dental cleaning, or MRI was “worth it,” this episode will have you nodding, laughing—and maybe rethinking your next pet insurance policy. About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

Turning Chaos Into Clarity Daryl shares how his volunteer search and rescue work during a devastating tornado in Alberta shaped his philosophy on leadership. What he witnessed in those chaotic moments pushed him to create systems for handling emergencies—not just in public safety, but also inside corporate boardrooms. Michael recalls his own experience with Hurricane Andrew in Florida, highlighting how disasters force us to rethink routines, resilience, and the way we lead through disruption. Productivity Meets Humanity Too often, workplaces focus on efficiency while stripping away connection. Michael and Daryl unpack why this doesn't work. Daryl draws from his coaching experience to show how empathy and vulnerability make leaders more effective, while Michael connects it back to employee well-being, stress management, and retention. Together, they stress that leadership is most powerful when it balances results with human connection. Transforming Toxicity Into Trust Michael shares his story of stepping into a healthcare organization with an 86% turnover rate. Within a year, by listening, implementing overdue changes, and fostering collaboration, turnover dropped to 6%. The lesson? Empathy and support aren't “soft skills”—they're leadership essentials. Just like a great coach who believes in their team, leaders can rebuild broken cultures by showing they care. Fundamentals Don't Change, Scale Does Daryl reminds us that whether you're leading 10 people or 10,000, the core challenges stay the same. Leadership is about people—and people are complex. His “order to chaos” framework emphasizes self-mastery, productivity, and intentional leadership. He explains how influence works like concentric circles: the larger the organization, the more intentional leaders must be with communication and culture. Adaptability Creates Team Success Great leaders flex. Daryl underscores the importance of listening and adjusting when introducing new systems. Michael reinforces this point with his healthcare experience—leaders who adapt to different personalities and communication styles build trust and reduce turnover. The message is clear: adaptability and intentionality are non-negotiable in leadership today. Collaboration for Better Decisions Michael highlights why leaders must include frontline voices when rolling out new tools or strategies, or risk creating disconnects. Daryl introduces his practical “1-3-1” tactic: identify the problem, offer three options, and present one recommendation. This simple structure accelerates decision-making and keeps teams aligned. The 1-3-1 Framework in Action Daryl breaks down how the 1-3-1 framework reduces cognitive overload for leaders while strengthening accountability. Though it feels clunky at first, it quickly becomes second nature. He even shares his Executive Assistant playbook and resources for leaders ready to try it—just DM him the word "TeamMichael” on LinkedIn or Instagram to get started. Resources and Balance The episode closes with resource-sharing and gratitude.

great in my studio," declared Lorenzo confidently, despite his inner doubts.It: Giulia lo guardò seria, ma con un lampo di curiosità nei suoi occhi.En: Giulia looked at him seriously, but with a flash of curiosity in her eyes.It: "E io penso che completerebbe alla perfezione la mia collezione personale," rispose, sfidandolo.En: "And I think it would perfectly complete my personal collection," she replied, challenging him.It: Così iniziò una competizione amichevole tra di loro, un gioco di parole, sorrisi e scherzi che attirò l'attenzione del venditore e dei passanti.En: So began a friendly

I have to admit, I was nervous to do this interview. I met Ruchika Malhotra by chance years ago, and have been in awe of her work ever since. She is the visionary author behind the new book, Uncompete. Building on her viral conversation about imposter syndrome, Ruchika delves into the core thesis of her latest work: the necessity of rejecting a destructive culture of competition to unlock true, sustainable success. She challenges the ingrained notion that scarcity and cutthroat individualism are the only paths to achievement, arguing instead that collaboration, abundance, radical generosity, inclusion, and solidarity are the keys to professional and personal fulfillment. Ruchika shares powerful insights on how modern, profit-driven systems push us toward fear-based competition—a behavior that fundamentally runs counter to our human need for community and connection. The conversation explores how this cultural "default" impacts everything from the workplace to personal health and even major life decisions like starting a family. Here are my favorite takeaways: Competition is a Short-Term Fix, Collaboration is the Long-Term Strategy: The current societal and corporate default toward competition often stems from a fear-based, scarcity mindset, but this approach only yields short-term gains. True, sustained success comes from moving away from a "winner-take-all" mentality and intentionally fostering environments built on collaboration, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Micro-validations matter: Genuine allyship is not a passive title but an active, conscious effort to uplift others, especially those who have been historically overlooked. Ruchika emphasizes that simple "micro-validations" of support, such as personally advocating for someone or giving credit where it's due, can significantly change the trajectory of a person's life and foster meaningful connections. Redefine Success: It's About Connection, Not Capital: When asked to look back on their lives, people's measures of success overwhelmingly center on the time they spent with people they love and the strength of their community, not their financial accumulation. The practice of Uncompete challenges listeners to redefine what success means to them, prioritizing community and well-being over the pressure to constantly compete for money or status.

This week, Pastor Josh Brecht reminds us that Jesus never works alone. In the feeding of the five thousand, Jesus invites his followers to bring what they have even when it seems small and then multiplies it into abundance. Collaboration is how Gods miracles take shape: people offering what they have, trusting God to do more than they imagined.We see scarcity; God brings abundance. We see the impossible; God sees the potential. In community, generosity grows, hope multiplies, and the Church becomes a living sign of Gods better story. https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/46163/note-244775.html
