On this unplugged episode of Catholic Women Now, hosts Julie Nelson and Chris Magruder set aside their usual guest format for a coffee-chat-style conversation about the prayers and novenas that have carried them through hard seasons, and the miracles they've witnessed along the way. The Rosary Group That Keeps Growing Julie shares how her parish rosary group at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in West Des Moines, Iowa has met for nearly eight years, including a recent answered prayer when her three-month-old grandson's high fever dropped within minutes of the group's prayers. She and Chris also recall a moment when a stranger they had prayed for turned out to later become a guest on their own show. Learn more at St. Francis of Assisi Parish. Two Everyday Miracles Chris tells the story of an unexpected answered prayer while house-hunting in Kansas City, and Julie recalls how a "coincidental" TV turning on, followed by a confirming line in her daily devotional, let her know Jesus was near right when she'd asked to know Him better. The Seven Sorrows Rosary Chris explains how she first learned about the Seven Sorrows Rosary from Catholic author and speaker Immaculée Ilibagiza at the Christ Our Life conference in Des Moines, and shares how praying it for her son before a major exam led to an unexpected, life-changing outcome. Learn more at Christ Our Life Iowa, which returns to Casey's Center in Des Moines September 26–27, 2026. A Novena for Financial Miracles: Infant Jesus of Prague Julie shares how an emergency nine-hour novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague, prayed in front of a statue she encountered during a silent retreat, led to a surprising financial breakthrough ahead of a fundraising concert — and how she still leans on this devotion for her family's finances today. Undoer of Knots, Saint Therese, and a Thirty-Day Novena to Saint Joseph The two also cover the long-form Undoer of Knots novena that helped untangle a difficult family decision, the Saint Therese novena and its "sign of the rose," and Julie's thirty-day novena to Saint Joseph that led to a life-changing decision about where to raise her family. The Emergency Novena The hosts close with the nine-hour emergency novena attributed to Saint Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa), which Julie has turned to for more than one last-minute travel miracle.

* This episode was recorded in May 2026, before the BIP110 activationLuke de Wolf, industrial cybersecurity expert and author of “Defending Bitcoin”, applies critical infrastructure security frameworks to Bitcoin itself. We dig into the network's real risks and vulnerabilities: arbitrary data, Bitcoin Core's governance structure, and the Core vs. Knots split. Luke's argument: Bitcoin has weathered this so far, but complacency is the one risk it can't afford.→ Please like, comment, share & subscribe, to help me beat the suppressing algo's.

The sermon addresses the epistle of First John, focusing on refuting Gnostic false teachings that denied the humanity of Jesus Christ. The speaker emphasizes the necessity of walking in the light and maintaining fellowship with God through obedience and separation from the world. Key theological points include the reality of sin in believers' lives and the assurance of eternal life for those who believe in the Son. The message clarifies that while the new nature cannot sin, the old flesh remains, requiring a continual walk in the Spirit. Ultimately, the text provides clear evidence for salvation, assuring believers they can know they have eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 087: Simon Dixon breaks down the Coldcard hack, BIP-110 chain split fallout, node vs miner power, and Bitcoin self-custody security in 2026.PART 1: Simon Dixon & Doomberg - https://youtu.be/Q0P0X7j_kcA Over $100 million in Bitcoin vanished in the Coldcard entropy bug — and days later a chain split ended with the nodes defeated and Bitcoin more centralized than before. Simon Dixon joins Nathan to trace what really happened.This is the deep-dive follow-up to the Doomberg conversation. You'll learn why Simon now treats every incident as an attack "guilty until proven innocent," how the BIP-110 resistance became the most successful node mobilization since the block size war yet still failed to move the mining pools, and why he refuses to die on a hill that ends in an altcoin. You'll see how the Coldcard low-entropy vulnerability, Zeus, Boltz and BTCPay attacks fit one pattern, and hear a clear framework for rebuilding your self-custody with dice-rolled entropy, multisig, and active participation. Simon and Nathan also unpack developer centralization, the loss of Knots as a competing implementation, and why sovereignty is proof of work you can't outsource.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro0:24 - Resuming After Doomberg Discussion0:55 - Infrastructure Attacks on Coldcard and Others1:32 - BIP-110 and Resulting Chain Split1:50 - UASF and Block Size War History2:50 - Tether Fees and Scaling Debates4:02 - Barry Silbert and SegWit2x Deal4:51 - Nodes Defeating Miners in Past Wars6:02 - Role Reversal With Core Changes7:35 - Running Knots to Support Resistance8:20 - Developer Centralization Concerns Rise10:14 - BIP-110 Failure and Altcoin Stance11:39 - Knots Node Adoption Surge to 20%12:08 - Infiltration Risks and Verification12:54 - Can Node Minority Influence Miners14:19 - Consensus Changes Remain Extremely Difficult17:16 - More Centralized Yet Wiser After Events18:13 - Social Fallout Losing Ocean and Knots22:15 - Check Ego and Welcome Others Back25:21 - Stay Suspicious While Shaking Hands27:34 - Abundant Mines Mining Hosting28:29 - Coldcard Low Entropy Bug Details30:16 - Hack Impact on Bitcoin Purists31:36 - Difficulty Spending Stolen Bitcoin32:37 - Fed Recruitment via Stolen Coins33:23 - Learn Entropy and Generate Secure Keys36:03 - Assume Attack and Identify Beneficiaries37:44 - Self Custody Sovereignty Comes at Cost39:55 - Bitcoin Requires Active Participation43:37 - Coordinated Message in All Attacks45:14 - Final Advice Skepticism and Focus

I just got back into the Land of the Free, and I have to tell you: it's a prison with a flag on it. Flock cameras on every corner. AI streetlights fitted with tech that can aim at your vehicle and listen to the conversation inside it. I went to the World Cup (no robot dogs yet, thankfully) but the cameras were everywhere, and nobody around me seemed to care. That's the part that should terrify you. Not the technology. The mindset. You just celebrated 250 years of “freedom” inside a surveillance grid your own culture built, because you dislike your neighbor more than you love your liberty. And understand what this machinery is for. The surveillance state is the ultimate weapon against competition, the lockdown mechanism of a rigged game. Politics is rigged. Finance is rigged. And the people who were going to protest it already did; with AI tracking, the rest are too scared to ever try again. They're building machines to follow the orders no human being would. So why don't I just despair? Because we already built the way out. That's why Crypto Vigilante exists… Watch on: Odysee | YouTube | X | Rumble | Bitchute | Vigilante.tv Blockchain is fairness as technology. We stopped trusting corruptible humans and started trusting mathematics. And that is exactly why Bitcoin was hijacked. The powers that be couldn't kill it, so they did something smarter: they convinced you it's a lottery ticket. A number-go-up token you buy on their exchanges and never use. The entire propaganda project has one goal: to keep you dumb, because Satoshi didn't give us a casino chip. He gave us a new internet: digital cash, a world computer, a place where you own your data and AI grows by market demand instead of by central planning. The antithesis of Palantir. And here's the black pill the maxis can't swallow: Bitcoin already scales on chain. Love him or hate him, Craig Wright's camp proved the thesis. BSV is pushing a million transactions per second and computing script on both sides of the UTXO model. They're training AI on chain. Meanwhile the Lightning Network, the thing you were told would save BTC, is dead. Its own whitepaper admitted it needed bigger blocks, and its senior devs keep walking out the door. Which brings us to August, when BTC's stalemate finally cracks in two: In early August, the Knots crew forks off with BIP 110: filter everything, change nothing, ten transactions per second forever. It's the end of the small-blocker experiment, going out with a whimper. August 21st brings the fork I'm actually cheering for: eCash (ECX), from Paul Sztorc and Layer 2 Labs. It uses Drivechains — BIP 300 and 301 — the sidechain technology Blockstream pitched to investors a decade ago and never delivered. Same 21 million coins, but now every philosophy gets its own room in the house. Want a big-blocker chain? Spin it up. Want optional privacy, with Zcash tech on ZSide? Move your coins there. Want scarcity harder than BTC? That exists too. Nobody forces one way of doing things, and no new shitcoins get minted along the way. It's the shitcoin killer, and it's the only lifeboat the BTC Titanic has. And while the forks race to scale Satoshi's vision, there's already a fair game running today: Monero. Private by default, immune to the surveillance grid, no permission needed. Most of our team became privacy enthusiasts the day the Bitcoin civil war started, and they've done just fine. Here's the real point, though. These networks are nothing without you. You are the most important node. The smarter you get, the smarter the network gets. So if I'm wrong, prove it, upgrade the software in your mind, and bring real arguments when you do. Because the psychologists are right: people under surveillance stop being themselves. The first act of resistance is to say it out loud. You live in the land of the surveilled. The second is to stop transacting like a prisoner. Peace, love, anarchy. Stay vigilant.

"21 million isn't a promise. It's a rule — and rules only hold if your node enforces them." Bitcoin Mechanic — of mining pool OCEAN — says Bitcoin is in a civil war, and most holders don't even know it's happening. The fight isn't over price. It's over who's actually in charge: Core or Knots, miners or developers — or the nodes that quietly outvote them all. We get into the Eye of Sauron turning toward Bitcoin, why 21 million is a rule and not a law of nature, what running Knots actually does, and the battle for the soul of Bitcoin.

Tim Tweet went down on a motorcycle at 120 miles an hour and slipped into a coma for three months. Inside that coma, he did not see darkness. He lived an entire life. Thirty-eight years as a man named Jason Scarborough. He grew up in Montana, married a woman named Nancy, raised kids, and flew helicopters in the Korean War. He even shared a beer with a young pilot who turned out to be his own grandfather. Then he woke up, unable to walk or talk, and had to decide which life was the real one.Here is the part that will keep you up at night. Tim came back knowing things he had never learned. Woodworking. Engine repair. Knots he cannot explain. A helicopter instructor swore he had flown before. Tim is a skeptic, and he still cannot account for it. The crew pulls the story into everything from the Matrix to near-death experiences to the future of memory itself. This is one of the strangest and unique accounts we have ever heard on the show.

Welcome to Story River Fables (previously Waffle-Free Storytelling)This story was inspired by a month where I seem to keep on repeating the same mistakes!! I needed a story to help me look beyond my own life and look more closely at family patterns. Whether we know it or not, we're the sum, to some degree, of all that came before us.Not always a comfortable thought...Anyway... Fill a mug, put your feet up, and join me for a mellow moment.When the story's done, feel free to enjoy the rest of the site (https://tinakonstant.com/) for more stories and other stuff and nonsense.TinaP.S...Written and told by Tina Konstant (Copyright)Music created with the help of Suno.ai

What if the key to helping children learn to write, count, and grow wasn't more pressure but more play? In this episode of Adventures in Learning, Dr. Diane Jackson Schnoor welcomes developmental therapist and early childhood advocate Sola Zaccheus for a rich conversation about fine motor development, developmentally appropriate practice, and the power of purposeful play.Sola shares her path from aspiring lawyer to educator and therapist, and how that journey led her to create Knots and Knuckles, a framework focused on strengthening the whole body before expecting children to master small motor tasks like writing, tracing, or holding a pencil correctly. Together, Diane and Sola unpack why play is not a break from learning; it is learning; and how teachers can embed literacy, math, language, and problem solving into meaningful hands on experiences.This conversation is especially powerful for early childhood educators, instructional coaches, therapists, and families who want practical strategies for supporting children in ways that are joyful, developmentally sound, and responsive to the child in front of them. From modeling in the classroom to building independence through everyday routines, this episode offers both encouragement and concrete ideas you can use right away.Chapters01:16 From aspiring lawyer to early childhood educator06:12 Why play belongs at the center of learning10:59 Modeling, engagement, and what children need from adults12:20 Behavior, support needs, and classroom environments18:08 Fine motor development and Knots and Knuckles23:13 Montessori, independence, and everyday routines25:08 Language, narration, and the power of conversation29:08 Why adults need play too31:00 How to connect with Sola32:02 What brings hopeKey momentsChildren need time, repetition, and practice before mastering complex skills.Play supports critical thinking, peer interaction, creativity, and regulation.Teachers do not have to abandon curriculum; they can weave it into play.Simple shifts in language and environment can make a big difference.Growth happens when we meet children where they are and build from there.About the guestSola Zaccheus is a developmental therapist, early childhood specialist, and founder of The Golden Nugget LLC and Knots and Knuckles.

On today's reflection Fr. Kubicki shares a prayer written by Pope Francis to Our Lady Untier of Knots.

Send me a text! I'd LOVE to hear your feedback on this episode!If you've ever looked at your life and thought, “I don't recognize myself anymore,” this episode explains exactly why — and how you find your way back.  Women don't lose themselves because they're weak. They lose themselves because their brains adapt to decades of emotional labour, caregiving, survival patterns, and the pressure to be everything for everyone.In this deep, neuroscience‑anchored episode, I break down the four stages of the Unalome at a metaphor for a woman's life — the spiral, the knots, the straight line, and the point — the psychological and biological map of a woman who forgets herself… and then remembers.You'll learn:• why women “disappear” inside roles, responsibility & emotional overload• the brain changes that drive identity loss in your 30s, 40s & 50s• why you repeat the same patterns (overgiving, overfunctioning, self‑silencing)• the midlife awakening — the moment you finally say “I'm done”• the four stages of the Unalome and how to know which one you're in• the practical steps that move you from overwhelm → clarity → returnThis episode is for the woman who whispers, “I miss me.”You're not lost. You're in a stage — and stages have exits.Join here:  Sandy K Inner Circle Join me here:  Sandy K Inner CircleSupport the showJoin The Sandy K Inner Circle -- my private women-only subscription community where we go deeper than the podcast ever could.Every month you get:A live Q&A with Sandy on ZoomAn exclusive podcast episode nobody else hearsA practical curated downloadAccess to our private women-only Facebook community for wide open discussions on all topicsNo agendas.
