In Patricia Lockwood's latest novel, the protagonist is an author named Patricia.

From the very beginning, confusion wasn't a byproduct of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal—it was the blueprint. The overlapping jurisdictions, sealed filings, contradictory statements, and conveniently “lost” evidence weren't mistakes; they were smoke screens. Every agency, from the DOJ to the FBI, played its part in creating a legal labyrinth so dense that the public would lose track of who was responsible for what. The result? A tangled web of “ongoing investigations” and “confidential agreements” that made it nearly impossible to follow the truth to its source. Epstein's sweetheart plea deal, the destruction of surveillance footage, and the endless redactions were all gears in the same machine: controlled chaos that guaranteed plausible deniability at every level.And it worked. The public got dizzy trying to track timelines, jurisdictions, and shifting narratives, while those who pulled the strings quietly slipped out of view. Every layer of confusion—who prosecuted, who didn't, who was “technically” covered by a deal—bought more time for the system to protect itself. Epstein's death only deepened the fog, allowing the media, courts, and power players to endlessly recycle distraction while the core question—who else was involved—got buried under noise. The cover-up was never about clarity or closure; it was about exhaustion. Make it confusing enough, make people doubt their own understanding, and eventually, most stop asking. That's not incompetence—that's strategy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In Part 1 of Lisa's story, she looks back on her youth and the awkward search for answers about sex and sexuality as a now 59-year-old woman. Her parents spoke in vague, confusing terms and never provided real context, which she found bizarre. The explanations she did receive made her body's natural changes sound painful and frightening. While there was plenty of playground gossip, there was no real guidance from anyone who actually knew what they were talking about. Magazines like Cosmopolitan painted sex as a kind of theatrical performance, leaving Lisa with a jumble of misinformation that led to years of confusion, fear, and dishonesty.Tune in next week to hear Part 2 and how Lisa finally found truthful guidance to erase this old and tired narrative.

In episode 112 of Going Forward, Eric Elliott is joined by Michael Scarpati, co-founder and CEO of RetireUS, to expose the hard truths behind financial planning today. From the myth of “set it and forget it” retirement accounts to the hidden toll of financial stress, he explains why doing nothing may be the most dangerous decision of all.Together, they unpack why 85% of financial professionals aren't required to act in your best interest, how trust in big-name institutions can leave families vulnerable, and why financial wellness is really a form of mental wellness. As Michael shares, financial stress doesn't stay in your bank account, it bleeds into your health, relationships, and leadership.Eric and Michael dive into how fintech is opening access for the 98%, how independent fiduciaries are reshaping trust, and why clarity with money is the key to leading with confidence in uncertain times. Whether you're early in your career, preparing for retirement, or leading a business through chaos, this conversation will give you the clarity to stop "crockpotting" your future and start planning it with intention.Connect w/ Eric Elliott:Website: https://ericelliott.com/⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-elliott-45704745/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericmelliott/Twitter: https://x.com/ericmelliottLinktree: https://linktr.ee/ericmelliottEmail: Eric@EricElliott.comText: 843-279-5843Connect w/ Michael Scarpati:Website: https://retire.us/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-a-scarpati/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/retire.usSupercharge your online advertising campaigns with Optmyzr!Streamline management, optimize performance, and boost your ROI.

PREVIEW: European Allies Consider 'Drone Wall' Amid Russian Harassment and Political Confusion Guest:Mary Kissel The discussion between John Batchelor and Mary Kissel centers on an extraordinary emergency meeting held in Copenhagen by the EU and NATO—not including the US—to address repeated harassment by drones presumed to be launched by Russia. The allies are discussing creating a "drone wall." Mary Kissel emphasizes that the purpose of Russia's actions is to exploit vulnerabilities and create "uncertainty, confusion, deterrence." When President Putin observes Europe from Moscow, he sees nations with "weaker defense capabilities, weaker ties to Washington, and weaker political systems." Specifically, many governments, such as those in Germany, Belgium, and France, are weak, noting that the French government recently collapsed after less than a month. Mary Kissel quotes her colleague, Tom Tugendhat, outlining Russia's aggressive actions in the UK alone, which include using chemical weapons, nuclear poisons, committing sabotage, attempting espionage, and threatening nuclear attack. Ultimately, the goal of Russia's "poking and prodding" is to gauge the reaction of these nations and see if they will implement the drone wall or respond with "just words."

Stop the Chaos: How God Breaks Confusion (120-Year Window & Digital ID Warning) | KIB 500 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description Episode 500!

Struggle with a lack of confidence in prayer or constant spinning about whether you're “in God's will”?

I teach out of 1 John to dive into the struggle of confidence when it comes to our prayer […]

We are living in a world of identity confusion. Our culture is wrestling with questions about sexuality, biology, and definitions of “male” and “female.” Would you be surprised to learn that this is nothing new? Ancient cultures wrestled with the same issues, particularly in the city of Ephesus. When Paul stepped into Ephesus to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he encountered the same chaos that our culture is experiencing today. In response, he wrote Ephesians 1 to remind us Christians of our identity in Christ, so that we can know who we are and whose we are! Only then will we be able to deliver the Gospel to this identity-confused world.

Today, the world is flooded with information but lacks wisdom. Confusion and deception are everywhere. The line between right and wrong has blurred, truth is challenged, and many believers struggle to discern the voice of God amid the noise.In "Wisdom – Discerning Good & Evil", Duane Sheriff teaches that wisdom is more than knowledge—it's the ability to discern between good and evil, a skill desperately needed in our complex world. The story of Solomon asking God for wisdom reminds us how to approach our spiritual journey. Just as Solomon didn't ask for riches or long life but for understanding to lead God's people, we too must prioritize godly wisdom above worldly pursuits.As God restores discernment in His Church, believers are called to rise with clarity, conviction, and compassion. Pursue godly wisdom like hidden treasure—it's time to awaken, walk in truth, and shine as lights pushing back the darkness in this generation.

We're nearly a quarter of the way through the NFL season, and some teams are giving us a clear picture of who they are, while others are just confusing. The Patriots and Falcons seemed to find another gear with dominant wins, but the Packers and Ravens are shaky. Could the Saints and Giants not be as awful as we thought? We are trying to make sense of it all this week while keeping our fantasy teams afloat after injuries to Tyreek Hill, Malik Nabers, Jaylen Warren, and others.

Photojournalist Jeremy Lee Quinn has spent years documenting protests, rallies, and moments of public unrest that often look very different on the ground than they do on the evening news. In this conversation, he talks with Meghan about what really happens when a “mostly peaceful protest” turns chaotic, how viral clips can erase context, and why the incentives of freelance journalism can skew coverage. They also discuss what it takes to build trust with sources across ideological divides, the ethics of filming in volatile environments, and how ordinary viewers can tell when the narrative doesn't match reality. Topics include: • The gap between local experience and national headlines • “Mostly peaceful” framing vs. street-level truth • Freelance journalism, safety, and incentives • Crossing lines without becoming the story • Why viral video is a poor substitute for context • What citizens should know about media literacy About the guest Jeremy Lee Quinn is a photojournalist and reporter who has covered protests and political unrest since 2020. His forthcoming book is Culture of Confusion. He posts most actively as @JeremyReporter (Instagram, Facebook) and also writes on Substack and X/Twitter.

In March 1996, the town of Denny in Stirlingshire was left reeling by the shocking death of 15-year-old Lawrence Haggart, a promising young footballer with dreams of pulling on the green and white hoops of Celtic. He was a devoted son and brother, a teenager whose future seemed bright, and his talent was clear to everyone who knew him.When a night out with friends ended in tragedy at his own home, the investigation that followed would raise more questions than answers. Confusion, suspicion, and bitter accusations tore through the family, while the community searched for justice.As the inquiry unfolded, disturbing histories and mishandled leads threatened to overshadow the truth. What emerged was not only the story of one boy's life cut short, but also a reflection of the failures and dark undercurrents that surrounded his case.Join my Patreon community at patreon.com/britishmurders for exclusive perks, including early access to ad-free episodes, exclusive episodes and content, exciting giveaways, and welcome goodies!

How did the prophecies of a Sept 23 rapture get it wrong? The prophets were sure this time around would brig Christians up and out. Though every year the same prediction occurs on this same date.What about the Charlie Kirk incident. Do we know what really happened? Many video narratives have appeared showing you their take of that content creator's video that must be considered. However dozens of contrasting stories of proof presented at the same time all boast to be true. How can opposite facts all be true? But every YouTube or Bitchute creator is sure his scenario must be correct. More than that the viewers stand behind of the many presentations choosing the best one - in their best guess. Yes we are scrabmling and speculating until we run out of angles to examine. Could this be part of Operation Chaos where the truthers are caught up in frantic speculations chewing at one another for the title? The saturation of ideas totally confuse people that they don't know what to believe, just as the Official like it.

In this episode of the Innovation Storytellers Show, I sit down with John Rossman, the former Amazon executive who helped launch the Amazon Marketplace and is a co-author of Big Bet Leadership: Your Transformation Playbook for Winning in the Hyper-Digital Era. Our title says it all: How to Continue, Kill, or Pivot Your Pilots with Clarity and Confidence.  John and I get practical about the moments that make or break innovation programs, from shaping the problem statement to running the high-stakes meetings where leaders must choose a path. If you have ever wondered why competent pilots stall, or how to defend a tough call in the room, this one is for you. John takes me inside the “working backwards” mindset and the rewired playbook he built with T-Mobile's new business incubation team in Bellevue. We also dig into how decisions actually get made.  John lays out the discipline behind those pivotal Continue, Kill, Pivot, or Confusion meetings, including clear criteria, facilitation, and communications so decisions stick rather than drift into ghost projects. We discuss strategic communication and the role of the Chief Repeating Officer, drawing lessons from successes at Amazon and hard-won insights, such as the Gates Foundation's inBloom post-mortem, where great technology and funding still failed without a proactive narrative that addressed resistance. You will hear how I approach innovation culture as an anthropologist, treating every company like its own country, with its own history, norms, and incentives that shape what is possible. We explore tools that invite people into the future rather than dictate it, such as “imagine if” framing and pre-mortems, which surface risks without killing momentum.  John also shares a few provocative ideas he believes the world needs now, from real-time freedom to shift cloud workloads to snap-switching your mobile carrier, all designed to put choice and competition back in the hands of users. If you are juggling pilots and pressure, this conversation gives you a plain-English playbook for moving from noise to momentum. You will leave with concrete steps to sharpen your problem statements, wire your experiments to the P&L, structure decisive meetings, and communicate like a leader who can carry a big bet across the line. Listen in, take notes, and get ready to make your next decision with clarity and confidence.

We shift from rookie-year labeling debates to the modern marketplace: the “Hot Potato Era,” flipping vs curating, and whether today's changes help sellers more than collectors. We also unpack Tiffany vs Star distribution, value obsession in hobby content, and the longevity vs greatness debate across eras. Highlights Tiffany vs Star cleared up: factory-set Tiffany vs team-bag Star, and why distribution rules complicate “rookie” status The Hot Potato Era: cards resold within days, instant “resell” buttons, and PSA-to-market liquidity without touching the card Flipper vs curator: moving inventory for profit vs actively upgrading a personal collection The content effect: “I spent $50,000” thumbnails, sensationalism, and how it shapes newcomers' expectations Value vs appreciation: the watch-collector analogy and Iowa Dave's prompt to rank your top cards by meaning, not money Private whales exist: the low-visibility collector with a T206 Wagner and why many serious collectors stay off-camera Are flippers good for the ecosystem? Card finders who surface hard-to-find PC targets across shows and regions Do hobby leaders want growth or guardrails? Protecting new entrants vs chasing headlines Longevity vs greatness: Kareem's MJ vs LeBron framing, Sandy Koufax's peak, Pujols first 10 vs second 10, and why era normalization matters Era traps in stats: dead-ball realities, ballpark dimensions, lowered mound, pitch-speed measurement changes, and why all-time lists are tricky “Everything helps sellers” debate: box prices, eBay authentication and resell tools, buyer's premiums vs collector benefits Counterpoints: liquidity is higher than ever, more leverage with auction houses, easier buying and selling for everyday collectors Open challenge: what could manufacturers, graders, and marketplaces do that truly benefits collectors without reducing profits?

First Corinthians Week 34 | 1 Corinthians 14:26-40

In this deeply grounded episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Chaya Garcia—an educator in love, dating, and self-healing—to explore how love, relationships, and self-worth intersect. Chaya opens up about her own transformative moment of accountability and shares why self-love is the foundation for emotional clarity and lasting relationships. From spotting red flags to breaking free from codependent cycles, this episode challenges societal norms and invites you to rewrite your love story—starting with yourself. About the Guest:Chaya Garcia is a radical truth-teller and relationship mentor known as the Epic Love Expert. She helps people stop seeking external validation and instead cultivate deep self-trust, emotional boundaries, and spiritual alignment. With a focus on building long-lasting, soul-aligned partnerships, Chaya teaches how to walk away with power, say yes with clarity, and design a life rooted in truth. Her free resources, coaching, and signature frameworks support individuals through dating, heartbreak, and legacy-level healing.   Key Takeaways: Healing begins when you stop blaming others and take responsibility without shame. Confusion is often a sign of misalignment—clarity comes from inner work, not more effort. Emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and sobriety are essential dating prerequisites. Reconnecting with your inner child builds self-love, which in turn attracts healthier relationships. Love is not attention. True love brings calm—not chaos.

Host: Cindy Allen Published: September 26, 2025 Length: ~15 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center 22: Confusion, Change, and Community in Trade This week, Cindy Allen — the Taylor Swift of Trade — channels 22 from the Red album to reflect on a trade environment that feels happy, free, confused, and lonely all at the same time. From new Section 232 tariffs announced by the Trump administration to the ripple effects on pharmaceuticals, trucks, furniture, and cabinetry, Cindy breaks down what these measures mean for importers, customs brokers, and compliance teams. She also highlights the EU deal implementation, the role of trade associations, and the looming Supreme Court case over IEEPA tariffs. At the same time, Cindy reminds trade professionals of the importance of staying connected and leaning on the trade community as we navigate rapid changes together. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Details of the Trump administration's latest Section 232 tariffs: • 100% on branded drugs (with exceptions for U.S. manufacturing) • 25% on heavy trucks • 50% on kitchen cabinets and bath vanities • 30% on upholstered furniture Why generics from India and China were not included in the new duties The pharmaceutical trade role of Ireland and Switzerland The EU trade deal rollout and CBP's reliance on Chapter 99 numbers How limited government communication impacts brokers and importers Why joining NCBFAA, AAEI, or ICPA helps importers and brokers stay informed Updates on the IEEPA Supreme Court case and its potential impact on tariff policy Key Takeaways: Importers must prepare for higher duties on pharmaceuticals, trucks, furniture, and cabinetry. CBP's use of Chapter 99 numbers provides technical implementation but leaves policy questions unresolved. Switzerland and Ireland remain critical players in pharmaceutical imports — and targets for tariff discussions. Trade associations are vital for getting timely answers and shaping FAQs. The IEEPA Supreme Court case could reshape tariff authority and compliance strategies.

In this episode, we take on four of the “scariest” Human Design gates – the ones whose names can make you cringe when you first hear them in a reading. Far from being something to fear, these gates hold some of the richest medicine in the chart. Through the lens of the Gene Keys, we reveal how their shadows are actually portals into deep wisdom, healing, and even divine states of being. Together we explore Gate 36 (Crisis), Gate 51 (Shock), Gate 63 (Doubt), and Gate 64 (Confusion). These energies may bring turbulence, shocking events, spirals of self-doubt, or periods of overwhelm but they also carry the potential for profound compassion, awakening, truth, and illumination. When we reframe these “scary” gates, we see how they shape us into resilient, wise, and inspiring beings. Whether you carry these energies yourself or witness them in loved ones, they offer a powerful reminder that what feels “scary” in our design can also be our greatest medicine. Key Takeaways: How to work with life's crises and emotional turbulence as fuel for wisdom. The surprising role of disruption and shock in sparking spiritual awakening. Why questioning everything can lead you closer to trust and truth. How confusion and overwhelm can open the door to inspiration and illumination. Reframing shadow energies as portals to compassion, resilience, and empowerment. What these “scary” human experiences teach us about our collective growth.   DayLuna:   64 Gates & Gene Keys Mastery Course Doors open September 29th!   FREE Transits & The Harmonic Gate Mini-Course   FREE Human Design Readings 101 Masterclass   Join Your Human Design Besties Book a Reading With Us Here!

The post What Really Scares People Away from Church appeared first on Church Answers.

Ever since a vaccine advisory panel to the CDC last week changed recommendations about COVID-19 vaccines for everyone, and certain immunizations for children, there's been a lot of confusion here in Minnesota over who should get what shot and when. Joining Minnesota Now to clear up some of this confusion and answer questions about vaccines are three MPR reporters. Krya Miles covers early childhood issues for MPR News. Erica Zurek and Molly Castle Work cover health.

The New Yorker contributing writer Dhruv Khullar joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss how Donald Trump is transforming the nation's approach to vaccines and immunization during his second term. They talk about the repopulating of federal agencies and advisory panels with skeptics, the politicization of once technical debates under the “Make America Healthy Again” agenda, and what happens when people distrustful of the medical establishment end up running American public-health policy. They also examine how states are stepping in to fill the vacuum left by Washington, creating a patchwork of approaches to vaccines across the country.This week's reading: “A New Era of Vaccine Federalism,” by Dhruv Khullar “Can Progressive Mayors Redeem the Democratic Party?,” by Bill McKibben “Donald Trump's Firing of a Federal Prosecutor Crosses the Reddest of Lines,” by Ruth Marcus “What Trump Wants from a TikTok Deal with China,” by Clare Malone “Can Liberalism Be Saved?,” by Isaac Chotiner Tune in to The Political Scene wherever you get your podcasts.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
