We're excited to welcome Linda Stone, DNP, CRNA, peer advisor Jack Stem, and Bridget Petrillo, MS, APRN, CRNA to reflect on 10 years of progress since the founding of the Parkdale Center. They share powerful personal stories of struggle and recovery, the evolution of peer assistance in nurse anesthesia, and how initiatives like the AANA helpline and Parkdale's 24/7 peer-driven support have become literal lifelines.

What happens when the very experts meant to protect our children can't identify the abuse that's harming them? Australian research from the University of Queensland delivers a shocking revelation: children exposed to coercive control have more than double the odds of developing PTSD compared to their peers. The trauma isn't theoretical - it manifests as anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicidality, and substance abuse disorders that can shadow them throughout their lives. Yet every day, family court professionals across Australia fail to recognise these harmful patterns. Instead, they mislabel abuse as "conflict" or "communication difficulties," creating recommendations that significantly expose children to ongoing coercive control.The system's failures create a particularly cruel form of class discrimination. Wealthy families can challenge problematic reports in the court system, albeit at enormous financial cost, while those relying on legal aid often face pressure to accept harmful arrangements when told they have "no legal basis" to fight. Your child's protection from abuse patterns shouldn't depend on your bank account, but it often does.Ready to better protect your children?

Inside The Cecil Hotel: Dark Truths Behind Elisa Lam's Elevator Video On a February morning in 2013, guests at the infamous Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles complained of brown, foul-tasting water. What the maintenance team discovered on the rooftop would spark a global internet frenzy - the body of 21-year-old Elisa Lam inside the hotel's water tank. In the days leading up to her disappearance, Elisa was captured on the hotel’s elevator CCTV behaving erratically. The now-viral footage has since fuelled endless theories, speculation, and conspiracy. But for those who worked inside the walls of the Cecil, Elisa’s case wasn’t unusual. The hotel had a long, dark history of death, violence, murder and tragedy. This week on True Crime Conversations, host Claire Murphy speaks with the Cecil Hotel's former manager, Amy Price who lived through the sheer horror and chaos. From eerie theories to the realities of running a place with such a dark history, Amy shares what it was like inside the hotel when one of the internet's most enduring mysteries unfolded. If any of the contents in this episode has caused distress, there is help available via Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: Mozilla's Lifeline is Safe After Judge's Google Antitrust Ruling A judge lets Google keep paying Mozilla to make Google the default search engine but only if those deals aren't exclusive. More than 85% of Mozilla's revenue comes from Google search payments. The ruling forbids Google from making exclusive contracts for Search, Chrome, Google Assistant, or Gemini, and forces data sharing and search syndication so rivals get a fighting chance. Brian #2: troml - suggests or fills in trove classifiers for your projects Adam Hill This is super cool and so welcome. Trove Classifiers are things like Programming Language :: Python :: 3.14 that allow for some fun stuff to show up in PyPI, like the versions you support, etc. Note that just saying you require 3.9+ doesn't tell the user that you've actually tested stuff on 3.14. I like to keep Trove Classifiers around for this reason. Also, License classifier is deprecated, and if you include it, it shows up in two places, in Meta, and in the Classifiers section. Probably good to only have one place. So I'm going to be removing it from classifiers for my projects. One problem, classifier text has to be an exact match to something in the classifier list, so we usually recommend copy/pasting from that list. But no longer! Just use troml! It just fills it in for you (if you run troml suggest --fix). How totally awesome is that! I tried it on pytest-check, and it was mostly right. It suggested me adding 3.15, which I haven't tested yet, so I'm not ready to add that just yet. :) BTW, I talked with Brett Cannon about classifiers back in ‘23 if you want some more in depth info on trove classifiers. Michael #3: pqrs: Command line tool for inspecting Parquet files pqrs is a command line tool for inspecting Parquet files This is a replacement for the parquet-tools utility written in Rust Built using the Rust implementation of Parquet and Arrow pqrs roughly means "parquet-tools in rust" Why Parquet? Size A 200 MB CSV will usually shrink to somewhere between about 20-100 MB as Parquet depending on the data and compression. Loading a Parquet file is typically several times faster than parsing CSV, often 2x-10x faster for a full-file load and much faster when you only read some columns. Speed Full-file load into pandas: Parquet with pyarrow/fastparquet is usually 2x–10x faster than reading CSV with pandas because CSV parsing is CPU intensive (text tokenizing, dtype inference). Example: if read_csv is 10 seconds, read_parquet might be ~1–5 seconds depending on CPU and codec. Column subset: Parquet is much faster if you only need some columns — often 5x–50x faster because it reads only those column chunks. Predicate pushdown & row groups: When using dataset APIs (pyarrow.dataset) you can push filters to skip row groups, reducing I/O dramatically for selective queries. Memory usage: Parquet avoids temporary string buffers and repeated parsing, so peak memory and temporary allocations are often lower. Brian #4: Testing for Python 3.14 Python 3.14 is just around the corner, with a final release scheduled for October. What's new in Python 3.14 Python 3.14 release schedule Adding 3.14 to your CI tests in GitHub Actions Add “3.14” and optionally “3.14t” for freethreaded Add the line allow-prereleases: true I got stuck on this, and asked folks on Mastdon and Bluesky A couple folks suggested the allow-prereleases: true step.

Episode Summary:When life hits harder than you ever imagined, how do you keep moving forward?In this powerful conversation, Coach Alex Van Houten sits down with martial artist, author, and fellow believer DK Kang — a man who has walked through job loss, financial strain, and his wife's battle with cancer, yet discovered how mindset became his lifeline.Drawing from his book Mindset Metamorphosis, DK unpacks what it means to shift from a fixed mindset (“I'll never be good enough”) to a growth mindset rooted in God's truth and daily choices. Together, Alex and DK explore:-How reframing negative self-talk can transform despair into hope.-Why saying no creates space for stewardship, health, and family.-The biblical foundation of mindset renewal in Romans 12 and Philippians-Martial arts lessons, Spartan race grit, and even Dragon Ball Z wisdom.By the end, you'll see why mindset isn't just psychology or motivation — it's spiritual stewardship. Whether you're fighting battles in your health, relationships, or faith, DK's story will inspire you to keep showing up, keep growing, and keep trusting God with your next step.Key Themes & Timestamps:[0:00] Mindset as martial arts training for the soul[6:30] Dragon Ball Z, Jackie Chan, and the fight scenes that shaped DK[10:50] Why mindset became DK's lifeline through cancer and job loss[15:00] Fixed vs. growth mindset — the biblical perspective[20:00] Reframing negative self-talk through journaling and faith[33:00] How “die trying” became a breakthrough moment[39:00] Spartan races, grit, and the power of repetition[43:00] Lessons from Job and encountering God in suffering[51:00] Why saying no is essential to stewardship[58:00] Why Vegeta (not Goku) is DK's favorite character — and what that reveals about redemption [1:05:00] Final encouragement: start small, pray harder, and keep growingShow Resources: Visit https//:Faithfulfitnessdevo.com to explore the Faithful Fitness Devotional Subscribe and share the Faithful Fitness Podcast with someone walking through suffering or looking to serve through their fitness Take a look at Mindset-Metamorphosis here: https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Metamorphosis-practical-transformative-mastering-ebook/dp/B0DJC1W8H3Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/faithful-fitness-by-better-daily--5150768/support.

When police raided the home of 48-year-old Gary Francis Newman in March 2007, they found him sitting in his lounge room, chatting online with a 14-year-old girl. She thought she was speaking to “Brandon,” a teenage American boy. In reality, Brandon was a persona—a carefully crafted fake identity Newman had used to lure girls online. Police would later uncover nearly 200 such identities. One of those girls was Carly Ryan. Newman lured Carly to a secluded beach, pretending to be Brandon, and brutally murdered her. What followed was every parent’s nightmare—and one mother’s mission to stop it ever happening again. Donate to the work at The Carly Ryan Foundation through their website here.

Suicide numbers are lower in places with higher incomes, better access to broadband internet, and good health insurance coverage. Unfortunately, those are all factors that are statistically lacking for many Native Americans and Alaska Natives. Development of the nationwide 988 Suicide and Lifeline has improved the persistently high Native suicide rate, and efforts to introduce culturally sensitive prevention and intervention methods are showing promise. As the federal government dissolves much of its support for mental health services and suicide prevention efforts, we'll highlight some of the work that is making a difference for Native populations. GUESTS Rachael Bogacz (Ponca and Omaha), director of Integrated Care for the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska LuAnn Even, chief behavioral health officer for the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska Stephanie Pasternak, director of State Affairs for National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Kim Farris, director of Behavioral Health for the Oklahoma City Indian Clinic

Through her work at Griffin Cares Foundation, she and her husband and children have built a community for individuals and families living through the same pain, proving that even in the darkest moments, connection and compassion can help navigate even the most difficult journeys.This episode is about the strength it takes to keep moving forward, the courage to speak openly about grief, and the legacy created when one person's story becomes a source of hope for many.We could not be prouder to know her.Find more information at:griffincaresfoundation.organd on Instagram:@griffincaresfoundationTheir first in-person Remembrance Day event is October 11, 2025.
