Survivors and victims allege that 301 East 66th Street, a New York City condominium building tied to Jeffrey Epstein, was used as a hub in his trafficking network. Various witnesses say that people involved in coordinating, recruiting, or facilitating abuse—like Sarah Kellen, Nadia Marcinkova, Adriana Ross, and others—had access to or worked out of units in that building. They've also claimed that underage girls were housed in multiple apartments there, sometimes several girls to a unit, and that the building served not merely as living quarters but as a location for parts of the abuse to take place.Victims also say the building was part of a broader system of control and deception. It's alleged the ownership structure was opaque, providing a way to obscure who precisely was responsible for what went on inside. Some have claimed they were brought there under false pretenses (job offers or modeling opportunities), groomed, and then coerced into sexual activity. The claims include that Epstein—or people in his orbit—used the building to conceal the scale of the abuse and maintain oversight (staff, security, transport) so that the trafficking could continue with fewer questions.Teresa Helm gave an exclusive interview the Mirror recently and in the interview she talks about the time she stayed at Jeffrey Epstein's building at 301 E. 66th street. This building has long been rumored to be a place where Jeffrey Epstein and Jean Luc Brunel house trafficked girls, but very little has been disclosed about the inner workings.to contact me:In our second article...Thersa Helm is one of the women who was abused by Jeffrey Epstein.

The film follows Mima, a former J-Pop idol who has recently left the music group Cham! that made her famous and beloved in order to pursue a career as an actress. As Mima struggles to adapt to the demands of her new profession, she becomes the victim of an obsessive stalker and steadily begins to lose her grip on reality. Visceral, confounding, and richly layered with considerations about celebrity, artifice, and the toll of creating a public persona, Perfect Blue represents the very best animated cinema has to offer and showcases what the medium is capable of in the hands of a brilliant artist.We begin by unpacking the film's contemplations of public image and the fledgling internet; how Kon anticipates the production of digital avatars and how these versions of ourselves skew people's perceptions of our interiority. Then, we discuss Perfect Blue's perspective on patriarchal, predatory systems within entertainment and art, as well as how the film conveys the top-down proprietary relationships that we build around celebrity. Finally, we examine the film's core tragedy - the loss of agency and sense of self that necessary follows any participation within a larger system of public visibility and the subsequent collapse of solidarity these losses breed.Follow Lex Briscuso on Twitter.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish.

Hey everyone! Crime Con wiped us out and kept me from getting an episode out this week. Please enjoy this revisiting of Surprise Justice. New episode next week! Who's ready for a petty surprise? This week on Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast, the crew is back with more dumb criminal stories, bizarre dilemmas, and a round of Would You Rather that gets hilariously out of control. Trevin kicks things off with a dilemma inspired by too much Succession. After binge-watching the hit HBO series, every casual conversation suddenly feels like a high-stakes corporate power play. Is everyone plotting to betray him, or is this just a side effect of prestige TV obsession? Meanwhile, Amanda faces a dilemma of her own: she receives a sweet and thoughtful text from her husband… only to later discover he sent it because he thought he might actually die at work. Romantic or terrifying? You decide. For Would You Rather, Amanda pulls from Mirror.co.uk's “10 Absolutely Diabolical Would You Rathers That Will Haunt You For Days.” Would you rather get caught watching porn in the office or accidentally send a rude email about your boss… to your boss? Trevin, on the other hand, dives deep into Reddit with a question guaranteed to ruin your mental images of the human body: would you rather have a horizontal buttcrack or a vertical mouth? Get ready for absurd logistics about stairs, redesigned toilets, and how a vertical jaw would even function. Then it's on to storytime, where petty crimes and surprise justice take center stage: The Danger in Our Surroundings – Amanda tells the story of 21-year-old Stephen Daniel of Snellville, Georgia, who was hanging around a QuikTrip gas station looking for a ride. Unfortunately for him, Officer B.W. Brown might be the only one to “offer” any kind of transportation. Haters on the Road to Glory – Trevin covers Jessica Curs, a 4th-grade girls' basketball coach in Burleson, Texas. Her undefeated season was threatened when heckler Gary Melson disrupted her championship game. But when police show up, nobody is a winner. From gas station arrests to police-backed game-day surprises, this episode is full of petty criminals, strange justice, and plenty of laughs.

Did you know hidden infections may start from your mouth to your gut? What's happening in your mouth could be the missing link behind your fatigue, hormone changes, or stubborn gut issues.   My Guest: Dr. Michelle Jorgensen is a former traditional dentist turned holistic health pioneer, who helps exhausted, health-conscious people finally feel like themselves again—by starting where health actually begins: your cells. She's the founder of Living Well with Dr. Michelle and author of the upcoming book by the same name, which reveals how to decode your symptoms and give your body exactly what it needs to heal, thrive, and stay energized—without the fads, overwhelm, or guesswork. If you're tired of chasing health trends and still not feeling better, this conversation is for you.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:14:12] Why gut health won't improve unless we address imbalances in the oral microbiome? [00:20:28] What are the differences between a traditional dentist and a biological dentist? Why consider making a change? [00:24:13] What might oral symptoms (cavities or jaw pain) reveal about digestion, hormones, or immune system? [00:28:56] What do you recommend to those who don't have access to insurance? [00:29:50] How do biological dentists decide whether to save or pull a tooth? Why could that decision affect your whole-body health? [00:30:57] In Living Well with Dr. Michelle, you introduce the Cell Well Model—how does oral health fit into that model? What happens at the cellular level when we ignore our mouths? [00:33:41] In your book, can you explain how someone's season might influence the way they care for their mouth? How do oral symptoms help reveal someone's season?   The Hidden Link From Your Mouth To Your Gut   Traditional Dentist vs. Biological Dentist Traditional dentistry focuses on fixing teeth mechanically: drilling, filling, and crowns. Biological dentistry looks at the whole body connection — teeth, gums, microbiome, and systemic health. Oral Health as a Mirror of Overall Health Root canals leave dead tissue that fosters bacteria and chronic low-grade infection, linking to autoimmune issues, heart disease, cancer, and stroke. Mercury fillings release toxins that affect the brain, hormones, and gut. Mouth–Gut Connection The mouth is the start of the digestive system. Hidden infections in gums, root canals, or extraction sites can disrupt the gut microbiome and overall digestion.   Connect with Dr. Michelle: Website - Living Well with Dr. Michelle Instagram - @livingwellwithdrmichelle Facebook - Living Well with Dr. Michelle TikTok - @livingwellwithdrmichelle Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - 3 Steps to Improve Cardio Fitness and Longevity (at any age) Next Episode - Riding Tandem: One Couple, One Mission, One Bike From Mexico to Alaska More Like This - Oral Health Changes with Hormones: Watch Your Mouth!

Message me with comments or questionsWhat does real self-care look like? For years, I silently judged people who focused on their appearance—thinking it was shallow or vain. But a recent experience completely shifted my perspective.In this episode, I share how I went from dismissing appearance-based self-care to realizing that true confidence comes from honoring both the internal and external parts of who we are. From my journey with hormone replacement therapy to a Halo laser treatment that sparked the comment, “You're 57, by now you should just be okay with it”—I'll unpack the moment that changed everything for me.Self-care isn't just bubble baths or meditation, and it isn't just skincare or workouts. It's about choosing practices—inside and out—that make you feel strong, confident, and aligned with your values. When we stop labeling certain types of care as “shallow” and others as “worthy,” we free ourselves to create resilience and self-trust that radiates through every area of life.If you've ever wondered whether it's “okay” to care about how you look—or questioned whether you're doing self-care the “right” way—this episode will give you the permission you've been waiting for.Connect with me online:1.

What happens when your most devastating heartbreak becomes the doorway to your greatest awakening? Nicolas Canon reveals how losing the relationship he thought he wanted became the catalyst that cracked open his heart to divine love, transforming him from a successful but empty tattoo artist into a spiritual guide helping others navigate their own profound transformations. After years as one of Canada’s highest-paid tattoo artists, earning thousands per session with bags of cash beside his desk, Canon found himself at a crossroads when his girlfriend delivered words that would change his life forever. Instead of dismissing her brutal assessment of his character, he made a decision that would launch him into what he calls his “spiritual birthday.” The Artist’s Awakening: From Financial Success to Spiritual Emptiness Canon’s journey began in Colombia, where childhood violence from his mother planted seeds of unworthiness that would drive his adult pursuits. By his twenties, he had achieved everything society told him to chase as a man: financial success, dating freedom, a prestigious career in tattooing where clients would tip him up to $1,000 in cash. “I remember one evening, my client left, and I grab a glass of wine. I look at the bag full of cash, wine in hand, a date and a party lined up. And I realised I feel miserable,” Canon recalls. “I’ve followed everything that society told me to follow as a man, the financial success, the plenty of dates, the cool career, all these things. And I just felt empty.” The breaking point came when his girlfriend, in the heat of an argument, called him “the biggest piece of shit” she’d ever met. Rather than defending himself, something cracked open in Canon for the first time. The Divine Orchestration: How Pain Becomes Medicine Canon’s revolutionary insight centres on reframing our relationship with adversity. What most people see as random suffering, he now recognises as perfectly orchestrated opportunities for growth. “I saw that breakup with my girlfriend was so beautifully orchestrated,” he explains. “It was this divine plan that pushed the right spots, created the right amount of pain so that I will drop the mask.” This perspective shift came through an intense ayahuasca experience that Canon describes as his spiritual rebirth. Initially an atheist who dismissed anything he couldn’t physically perceive, four cups of the sacred plant medicine forced him to confront every emotion he had avoided and every painful memory he had suppressed. “At the other side of that, there was this big light where I felt the creator. For me, it was the most real experience I’ve ever had,” Canon shares. “I felt there is this thing that created me. It’s also part of me, like it’s bigger than me, but also I’m an extension of it.” Pain vs. Suffering: The Crucial Distinction One of Canon’s most powerful teachings distinguishes between pain and suffering. Pain, he explains, is mandatory in human experience, like cutting yourself while cooking. Suffering is the story we add, the emotional charge we attach. Using his childhood as an example, Canon explains that while his mother’s physical discipline caused temporary pain, the real damage came from the stories he created: “I’m not worthy of safety. There’s something wrong with me. I’m not good enough.” While he experienced perhaps five incidents of physical punishment, he tortured himself thousands of times with these narratives well into his twenties. “Pain is what life hands us, situations that are difficult. Suffering is living with that story,” Canon clarifies. “Pain happens. Suffering is a choice that we make, and very often a recurring choice.” The Mirror of Relationships: Why We Attract Our Triggers Canon challenges the popular notion of finding “the right person,” calling it “total bullshit and a cop-out from taking full responsibility for the relationships we decide to engage in.” Instead, he reveals how relationships serve as vehicles for healing, with each partner triggering the other’s unresolved traumas as opportunities for growth. He describes the common dynamic between emotionally stoic men and highly emotional women as a perfect match where each possesses what the other needs to develop. “This one absorbs, and this one just keeps pouring. But they’re both driven by the same thing,” he explains. The key insight: we don’t attract people despite our wounds, but because of them. Every relationship offers a chance to heal what’s unresolved within us, if we have the courage to stay and grow rather than run to the next person. The Commitment Revolution: Creating Love vs. Finding It Canon’s approach to relationships centres on a radical concept: your relationship becomes beautiful as a result of your commitment, not the other way around. He spent years waiting for his now-wife to prove she was “the one” before fully committing, only to realise he had it backwards. “I realised, you know what? If I commit, something beautiful is going to come out of this,” he shares. “What is it like for my girlfriend to be dating a man who is half in, half out? Probably not very exciting. How much of herself does she want to give? How much love does she want to pour into that? Probably not.” His marriage transformed when he stopped waiting for her to earn his commitment and instead poured himself fully into creating something beautiful together. Three Essential Practices for Transformation Canon offers three powerful tools for applying its philosophy: 1. The Grace Question: When facing difficult situations, ask, “How can I appreciate even more God’s grace and guidance in this moment?” This reframes challenges as character development rather than cosmic unfairness. 2. The Reset Breath: Take a deep inhalation, squeeze in a bit more air, hold comfortably, then exhale. This instantly resets the nervous system and creates space for conscious response rather than reactive behaviour. 3. The Hidden Benefits Inquiry: When experiencing consistent breakdowns, ask, “How is this serving me? What benefits am I getting from this situation?” This reveals the unconscious secondary gains that keep us stuck in destructive patterns. Canon illustrates this final principle with his own story of financial anxiety in marriage. By honestly examining what benefits he was getting from the struggle, he discovered the stress gave him permission to say no to his wife’s spending, provided a distraction from uncomfortable self-reflection, and offered an excuse to avoid intimacy issues. Once he faced these patterns, his financial situation transformed within weeks. The Deeper Truth: Everything Serves Your Awakening Canon’s philosophy extends beyond individual healing to a cosmic perspective on human experience. He suggests that life sends us subtle messages through intuition and red flags, but when we ignore these whispers, pain becomes life’s last resort to grab our attention. “Pain is the one thing we cannot normalise,” he explains. “We can normalise pleasure, but pain, no matter how many times you’ve cut yourself chopping food, if tomorrow you cut yourself, it still hurts. It’s going to hurt the same, because pain is one of the only human experiences that we cannot normalise.” This design serves our evolution. Pain forces us to stop, pay attention, and examine what needs to change. It’s not punishment but invitation, not cruelty but compassion from a universe invested in our growth. Why This Matters Now In an era of increasing mental health challenges and spiritual disconnection, Canon’s message offers a radically different approach to adversity. Rather than seeing ourselves as victims of circumstances, he invites us to recognise the intelligence behind life’s unfolding. His journey from successful but empty artist to fulfilled spiritual guide demonstrates that our perceived failures can become our greatest breakthroughs when we have the courage to extract their wisdom rather than resist their teachings. Canon’s approach doesn’t minimise genuine trauma or suggest spiritual bypassing. Instead, it offers a framework for finding meaning and growth opportunities within even the most challenging circumstances, transforming our relationship with difficulty from resistance to curious investigation.

Arcana Coelestia 7643(3) The Lord is continually bringing the heavens into order, and is constantly receiving new residents of heaven, to whom He gives dwelling places and inheritances; and when He does this, heaven approaches, that is, flows in more strongly, causing the infernal spirits to rush more strongly into evils and falsities, and into the penalties of these; and in consequence of this rushing into evils and falsities, they as before said vastate themselves; and this does not cease with them until they have completely devastated themselves, and cast themselves deeply into the hells. From all this it can be seen that nothing else than good proceeds from the Lord, and that the evil is from those themselves who are in evil. On the mirror True Christian Religion 6(2)...For everyone who has acquired his state of mind from God, the Sacred Scripture is like a mirror, in which he sees God, everyone in his own fashion. This mirror is composed of the truths which he learns from the Word and absorbs by living his life in accordance with them.  AC 5286...A person's natural - that is, his natural mind which is beneath his rational mind - cannot by itself see to any provision whatever that has to be made. It seems to do so by itself, but any provision it does make is seen to by what is interior. This sees within the exterior what provision needs to be made, almost as a person sees himself in a mirror in which his image seems to exist.  Divine Love and Wisdom 59...For the created universe is not God, but from God. And because it is from God, it has in it His image, like the image of a person in a mirror, in which the person indeed appears, but which nevertheless has nothing of the person in it.

We are quickly approaching the Autumn Equinox, when we'll transition into the dark half of the year. I used to hate the darkness - literally and metaphorically. I especially dreaded Daylight Savings Time. I equated the darkness with depression, and from a spiritual perspective, I used to associate it with evil. On my rewilding journey, I've now come to see it much differently - as a blessing!

Author and longtime collaborator with Dr. Joe Dispenza, Tim Shields, explores consciousness, creativity, and the healing power of surrender on episode 216 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.For years, Shields worked closely with Dr. Joe Dispenza, serving as author, writing coach, and literary collaborator on projects including the bestseller Becoming Supernatural. Today, he continues to bring his passion for consciousness and storytelling into new arenas, currently collaborating with Dr. Zach Bush while developing his own books and teachings. His work connects the worlds of healing, creativity, and personal transformation, always returning to the core principles of surrender, trust, and human potential.In this expansive conversation, Faust and Tim dig into surrender, trust, and the transformation chamber of pain and healing. They explore generational trauma, subconscious programming, and how rituals and flow states unlock creativity. From the lessons of Dr. Joe's retreats to visions of collective consciousness and even the mysteries of extraterrestrial life, this episode is a journey into both the personal and the cosmic.In this episode:

In this powerful spiritual talk, The Mirror Never Lies, Rev Lee Wolak reveals how life constantly reflects back the truth of who we are. Every relationship, challenge, and joy acts as a mirror, showing us the beliefs, emotions, and energy we carry within. When we blame the reflection, we stay stuck. But when we take responsibility and shift the source—our inner consciousness—the outer world naturally transforms.

Dearest gentle listeners,Join your Ladies Bridgerton with a cheeky beverage as we delve back into the spicy scenes from the book and anaylze how they differentiate from the scenes from the TV series.In today's episode, much blushing occurs as we tackle Colin and Penelope's first time in the book. Thankfully Daisy required some potty breaks to give us a reprieve from 'those' scenes!As this episode is in large the book reading and analysis, I did not include time stamps to skip.Yours Truly,The Ladies Bridgerton

In one of the most chilling written stories ever shared on Real Ghost Stories Online Live, an anonymous writer reveals the haunting experience of a family who unknowingly brought home a relic tied to one of America's most infamous haunted neighborhoods — Amityville. It began innocently enough: a mirror tile, cracked and ordinary, salvaged by the father. But once hung in their hallway, the mirror began to reflect things it shouldn't. Watches showed wrong times. Faces appeared in the fogged glass. Black fingerprints reappeared after cleaning. Even the family dog refused to cross its threshold. When the father tried to dispose of the mirror at the dump, it returned the next day, neatly wrapped under their hallway table. As events escalated, scratching noises emerged from within the wrapped package, and water rose in the house only to stop at the height where the mirror once hung. Finally, desperate, the family pushed the wrapped mirror into the canal — watching as it floated, turned, and briefly revealed something dark before sinking into the water. Tony and Todd unpack the terrifying details, connecting it to Amityville's legacy of cursed objects and debating whether haunted items hold energy from the tragedies they've witnessed. This is a haunted mirror story that rivals the darkest Amityville legends. #Amityville #HauntedMirror #HauntedObjects #GhostStories #Paranormal #RealGhostStories #HauntedHouse #ParanormalActivity #AmityvilleHorror #CreepyStories Love real ghost stories?

Nick once again coming to you from Burghley Horse Trials and joined this morning by the Mirror's David Yates. First up Richard Hannon joins the show, who is hoping that Rosallion will finally land a Group One in 2025 in Sunday's Prix du Moulin at Longchamp although he faces some stiff competition. Nick and Dave touch on the latest in the Hillsin case which is scheduled for a hearing next week before Wilf Walsh of the RCA explains why David Armstrong is stepping down as Chief Exec. Breeder John little shares his delight in the success he has seen Lady of Spain go onto with Roger Varian, the latest a Group 3 success, and he discussed his why he thought the mare was perfect for sire Phoenix of Spain. Then with the Malton open day taking place this weekend we hear from Beck Edmunds and finally Kevin Walsh offers a rebuttal to Charlie Brooks's piece in the Telegraph earlier in the week, regarding the future of summer jumps racing.

Filmmaker Christopher Jason Bell (Miss Me Yet, Attention Shoppers) joins us to discuss Last Action Hero, a meta action comedy featuring too many ideas, a healthy serving of great jokes, and a fascinating reckoning for its star Arnold Schwarzenegger as he was aging into the second act of his movie star career. We begin with a conversation about the action hero vehicle, its dominance in the 1980s, and its turn to self-reference and parody in the early 1990s. Then, we explore Last Action Hero's bizarre combination of action movie tropes and lighter cartoon comedy logic that makes its satirical targets more difficult to identify. After, we address the ways the film incidentally exonerates itself from some of the more ideologically thorny tendencies of police films by embracing fantasy and drawing attention to its artifice. Finally, we spend some time discussing Chris's latest brilliant and beautiful film Failed State, how its component parts all came together, and what it means to be a filmmaker in our moment of constant crises and social alienation.Follow Christopher Jason Bell on TwitterWatch Chris's films on Means.tv Watch the trailer for Failed StateGet access to all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish

How does a 19th-century painting of dying Roman gladiators become the most powerful artistic symbol of the Philippines? This episode uncovers the dramatic life of Juan Luna's Spoliarium: a masterpiece that was sliced into three pieces, survived wars and botched restorations, and inspired everything from revolutionary novels to a famous rock song. Join us as we unravel the story of the painting that refused to die and became the unlikely mirror of a nation's soul.

Sponsored by Pepperstone Imagine trading with your future self watching over your shoulder. Every click, every stop move, every hesitation — exposed. Would they nod in approval, or wince in frustration? In this episode, I break down the Trader's Mirror Test and how this quirky mental exercise can change the way you see your trading forever.

Using alchemy and electricity, a man builds a doorway that's meant to isolate the mind of anyone who passes through it. Genre: Horror, Mystery, Science Fiction   Excerpt: “A whole twisted into a new shape that does not remember the old. A whole slowly sliced into pieces that do not know how to come back together. And so they move farther and farther apart. That is what your doorway has done to me.”   What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode? Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. This story is inspired by another one I've written where someone uses “arcane practices” to build a device intended for good, only to later realize that the device has unexpected and dangerous effects: The Mirror of Displacement.   MY FIRST BOOK (yay)Ever wonder how I've gotten all these hundreds of stories written?  I have a method. And I talk all about it in my book called Fictioneer's Field Guide: A Game Plan for Writing Short Stories. It's now available from Amazon as an eBook, paperback, and hardcover. You can also get there from my Store page: STORYFEATHER STORE  The Store page also has sign-up forms for my two email newsletters: Storyfeather Gazette (if you'd like to keep up with the fiction I create) Fictioneer's Field Guide (if you'd like writing tips and guidance from me) Choose what you want.

Slightly left of center, a man in a suit seen from the back steps toward a detached doorway into a hazy light. Sitting up at his left is a dog with tongue lolling out, gazing up at the man. To the right is a portable generator.  Wires lead from the generator and wrap around the doorframe. The dog, man, and generator cast shadows. Right foreground, another dog seen in profile from head to top of chest, with red eyes, notches in the ears, and red spittle dripping from the mouth, stares at the man. Faint outlines of shelving are seen in the background. Watermark of “Storyfeather” along left side of doorway.
