You don't really know how alone you are after a wreck until the insurance company starts talking. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Darrell Burrow, a Bankruptcy and Personal Injury Attorney at Burrow & Associates, who shares what he's learned over nearly 30 years representing injured people in Georgia. Darrell explains why insurance companies aren't there to “do the right thing,” why most people leave money on the table, and what to do in the critical moments after a wreck. He also discusses building a values-driven law firm, fostering a culture of client empathy, and preparing the next generation of attorneys to carry the torch. Key Takeaways:→ The first call you should make after a car crash or personal injury is 911.→ Photos at the scene can become critical evidence.→ Documenting injuries immediately can make or break a claim.→ If the police don't file a report, Burrow & Associates can help by using a self-report form to create an official record.→ Making sure each client has an excellent experience is intentional, as most clients are often scared and overwhelmed. Darrell Burrow is an accomplished attorney with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate personal injury and bankruptcy cases. Born in Alabama and raised in Virginia, he earned his J.D. from the University of Alabama in 1992 and began his career clerking for Judge John Bush. In 1996, with the support of his wife, Darrell opened his own practice in Atlanta, which has since expanded to multiple offices across Georgia. Over the course of his career, he has successfully handled more than 30,000 cases, earning a reputation as a trusted advocate and advisor. Beyond the courtroom, Darrell is a devoted family man who values faith, fitness, and the outdoors. Whether boating, golfing, or camping under the stars with his children, he embraces life with a spirit of adventure while remaining deeply committed to his clients and community.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Eight months after Christine Banfield was allegedly stabbed to death in her own bedroom, detectives returned to the home. What they found tells a story all by itself. The blood-soaked carpet? Gone. Fresh wood flooring in its place. New furniture throughout. And on the nightstand where wedding photos once sat? Pictures of Brendan Banfield with Juliana Peres Magalhães—the au pair who prosecutors say helped plan Christine's murder.Crime scene photographer Kenner Fortner showed the jury these before-and-after images during day three of testimony. Detective Terry Leach presented graphic photographs of Joseph Ryan's body—blood on his face, hands, chest, and arms. The murder knife wasn't in Ryan's hand as the defense claims it should have been. It was hidden under blankets on the floor. Christine's blood was found on Banfield's jeans. Prosecutors revealed he'd bought a gun weeks before the killings, took Juliana to a shooting range twice, and allegedly installed $30,000 worth of soundproof windows in the home.McDonald's surveillance captured the prosecution's timeline: Banfield in the parking lot at 7:37 AM, exiting the bathroom with his phone to his ear at the exact moment Juliana called. Her testimony says that call was the signal.But the central question remains: who manipulated whom? Robin Dreeke spent 32 years at the FBI, including leading the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program where he recruited spies and analyzed human behavior at the highest levels. He examines what Juliana's jailhouse letter reveals about her psychology—writing to her mother that she was "heartbroken" for what she was doing to Brendan, that she still loved him, but wanted to come home. Dreeke identifies the behavioral markers that distinguish genuine coercion from willing participation. The jury will watch Juliana testify against the man she allegedly loved.

The prosecution showed its hand on day three, and the evidence keeps stacking. Fairfax County detectives revealed what they found when they returned to the Banfield home eight months after Christine's death: the blood-soaked bedroom carpet replaced with fresh wood flooring, new furniture throughout, and photos of Brendan with Juliana Peres Magalhães now occupying the nightstand where his wedding pictures once sat. The visual tells a story no testimony needs to explain.Crime scene photographer Kenner Fortner documented the before-and-after transformation. Detective Terry Leach walked jurors through graphic photographs of Joseph Ryan's body in the bathroom—blood on his face, hands, chest, and arms. The murder knife was hidden under blankets on the floor, not in Ryan's hand as the defense theory requires. Christine's blood appeared on Banfield's jeans. Prosecutors revealed he'd purchased a gun weeks before the killings, took Juliana to a shooting range twice, and allegedly installed $30,000 worth of soundproof windows in the home.McDonald's surveillance footage locked in the timeline: Banfield at 7:37 AM, exiting the bathroom with his phone to his ear at the precise moment records show Juliana called. That call, according to her testimony, was the signal.But who was controlling whom in this alleged partnership? Robin Dreeke spent 32 years at the FBI, including leading the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program where he recruited spies and studied manipulation at the highest levels. Prosecutors say Banfield told Juliana it was "too late to back out" and handed her a gun that morning. But Juliana isn't a bystander—she allegedly helped plan and execute a double murder, then spent a year backing Brendan's story before flipping. From jail, she wrote her mother she was "heartbroken" for betraying him, that she still loved him. Dreeke breaks down what genuine coercion looks like, what her letter reveals about her psychology, and what behavioral markers to watch when she testifies against the man she claims manipulated her.#BrendanBanfield #ChristineBanfield #JulianaMagalhaes #RobinDreeke #FBI #BanfieldTrial #AuPairMurder #CrimeScenePhotos #Manipulation #DoubleHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week on The Bend Show from the “house burping” home trend to dumb outdoor criminal stories and how winter weather can trigger migraines. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Home Trends, Outdoor Headlines & Health Impacts of Winter Weather House Burping: Why Some Homeowners Are Opening Windows in Winter Even as winter temperatures plunge, a growing number of homeowners are opening their windows on purpose — a trend known as “house burping.” The idea comes from a long-standing German practice called lüften, which simply means airing out your home to improve indoor air quality. Air quality experts say it can actually be healthy. Letting in fresh air helps reduce moisture, mold, carbon dioxide, and indoor pollutants — especially important since Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors. In Germany, lüften is so common that some rental agreements even require tenants to open windows regularly. The practice has gone viral in the U.S., with social media users sharing routines like airing out the house first thing in the morning, after cooking or showering, or after guests leave. There are downsides, though. Critics say opening windows in winter can hurt energy efficiency and drive up heating costs. Experts recommend keeping it short — about ten minutes is all it takes. So while it may feel counterintuitive, a quick blast of cold air could help keep your home healthier — just don't leave those windows open too long. Reference: https://www.today.com/life/what-is-house-burping-benefits-rcna255170 Outdoors Hunting & Fishing Dumb Crimes According to Outdoor Life, A former Alaskan guide with a long history of wildlife violations has once again been found guilty—this time for crimes tied to his commercial fishing business. Fifty-one-year-old Michael Patrick Duby of Juneau was convicted by a jury on January 15 of multiple charges, including falsifying commercial fishing records, selling fish taken for personal use, fishing out of season, and harvesting clams without a permit. Duby's record of fish and game violations stretches back more than 20 years. In 2012, he received one of Alaska's harshest sentences for wildlife crimes after a federal investigation found he illegally killed and sold protected birds. That case, along with other state offenses, cost him his hunting and sport fishing privileges, landed him in prison, and resulted in tens of thousands of dollars in fines. After losing those privileges, Duby shifted into commercial fishing, saying it was still his passion. But prosecutors say the pattern continued. His most recent convictions stem from actions in 2019 and 2020 while operating Genesis Seafoods, including felony charges for falsifying harvest records and reckless endangerment for selling untested clams. State prosecutors have described Duby as someone unable to stop breaking fish and game laws. His wife, who was charged as an accomplice and is a state fish and game operations manager, was acquitted. Patrick Duby represented himself at trial and is scheduled to be sentenced in May.

In the early morning hours of December 31, surveillance video shows the suspects sawing a life-sized bronze bighorn sheep statue off its concrete base using a battery-powered saw. After tipping the heavy statue over, the pair struggled to load it into the backseat of what appears to be a Chrysler 300. When that didn't work, they left the scene, returned about 15 minutes later with a luggage cart, and wheeled the statue away. Police believe the bronze ram was later cut into smaller pieces so it could be transported and likely sold for scrap. The statue, nicknamed “Rocky,” had been installed outside Kuiu's headquarters just months earlier, in June of 2024. Bronze scrap currently sells for only a few dollars per pound, but thefts of bronze artwork are reportedly on the rise. Kuiu has released the surveillance footage and is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. The case is being handled by the Dixon Police Department, and the company says the response online has been immediate and overwhelming. Reference: https://www.outdoorlife.com/conservation/thieves-steal-kuiu-sheep-statute/ Missouri Offers $15,000 Reward in Bull Elk Poaching Case Missouri conservation officials are asking for the public's help after a bull elk was illegally shot and killed at Peck Ranch Conservation Area in southern Missouri. The Missouri Department of Conservation is offering a fifteen-thousand-dollar reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. The adult bull elk was discovered the morning of November 26, 2025, lying dead in an open field with a gunshot wound to the left shoulder. Investigators say evidence at the scene shows the shooter drove a vehicle directly into the field toward the elk, then circled back onto a gravel trail and left the area at a high rate of speed. Tire tracks entering and exiting the field were clearly visible. Photos submitted by members of the public helped narrow down the timeline. One photo shows the elk alive and grazing around 5:15 the evening before. Another photo taken just after 8:00 the next morning shows the animal dead in the same field. The case is being handled through Missouri's Operation Game Thief program, which emphasizes that poaching hurts wildlife conservation efforts and the hunters who follow the law. Anyone with information is urged to call 800-392-1111. Tips can be made anonymously, and conservation officials say even small details could help bring the person responsible to justice.

According to a Cleveland Clinic headache specialist, sudden shifts in barometric pressure can create pressure changes in the sinuses, which may set off migraines in people who are already prone to them. Extreme cold can also be a factor. For those sensitive to winter temperatures, simply being out in frigid air can increase the chances of a migraine starting. There are steps you can take to help prevent winter-related migraines. On very cold days, staying indoors when possible can help. If you do head outside, bundle up — especially covering your head and neck to limit cold exposure. Doctors also recommend keeping migraine medications with you, so you can treat symptoms early. Beyond the weather, lifestyle habits matter. Getting enough sleep, staying active, managing stress, and addressing anxiety or depression can all play a role in reducing migraine frequency. And if migraines start interfering with daily life, Cleveland Clinic experts say it's time to talk with your doctor, who can help find the right treatment plan to better manage symptoms through the winter months.

Anthropic's disclosure of model drift within its Claude AI system highlights growing risks surrounding governance and ongoing alignment of artificial intelligence. The company has revised its guidelines using a “Constitutional AI” approach, aiming to instill reason-based behavior and ethical boundaries, and has openly acknowledged that an AI's internal controls may shift unpredictably over time—a concern when models are deeply embedded in business workflows. This admission places attention on governance and accountability rather than just model safety, making clear that the AI a company tests may become materially different after extended deployment, especially as personalization increases.Supporting these concerns, Anthropic's research demonstrated that large language models—including those from Google and Meta—can experience personality drift, with unintended shifts in behavior due to instability of internal control mechanisms. Google's updated AI offerings, tying personal data from Gmail and Photos to generative model responses, intensify challenges around data governance and organizational control. As vendors expand AI personalization and memory features, oversight gaps can emerge, raising questions about who retains authority over information, inference, and decision-making within automated systems.Adjacent findings indicate that the anticipated productivity gains from AI have yet to reach most enterprises. According to surveys cited by Dave Sobel, over half of CEOs report failing to realize ROI from AI investments, while frontline employees describe AI integrations as sources of friction and additional workload rather than relief. In the MSP sector, widespread adoption of “agentic” AI and digital labor is delivering financial upside for some providers, but it is also shifting operational liabilities—especially as contracts and security architectures lag behind new workflow realities.The core takeaway for MSPs and IT service providers is the necessity of reexamining control, authority, and contractual obligations in AI-enabled environments. Delegating tasks to automated agents increases exposure to unpriced and unmitigated risks if governance, liability, and monitoring mechanisms do not adapt accordingly. Effective harm reduction in this landscape requires treating workflows—not just models—as security perimeters, clarifying accountability for AI-driven actions, and ensuring that contractual and operational frameworks reflect these new sources of risk.00:00 AI Governance Moves Center Stage as Models Drift and Personalization Deepen05:08 AI Boosts Executive Productivity While Frontline ROI and Employee Experience Lag07:51 AI Exposes the Real Divide: Governance Failures vs. Effective Oversight in Government Systems10:39 MSPs Chase AI-Driven Margins, but Workflow Security and Liability Define the Real Risk This is the Business of Tech.
On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Apple's plan to turn Siri into an chatbot with iOS 27, alongside plans for new hardware such as an AI pin.Apple reportedly plans to turn Siri into a chatbot that will rival Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini, and OpenAI's ChatGPT later this year. Apple's chatbot will apparently be able to search the web, generate content like images, help with coding, summarize information, and analyze uploaded files.It will be able to leverage personal data on a user's device to complete tasks, and it will result in a much improved search feature. Apple is also said to be designing a feature that will let the Siri chatbot view open windows and on-screen content, as well as adjust device features and settings.Siri will integrate directly into all Apple apps, including Photos, Mail, Messages, Music, and TV, and it will be able to access and analyze content in the apps to respond to queries and requests. There will be voice and typed interface options.Apple plans to power the chatbot with a custom model based on Google Gemini. It may even run on Google's servers. The Siri chatbot will purportedly be the key new feature in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27.In related news, Apple is said to be working on a small, wearable AI pin equipped with standard and wide-angle cameras to capture photos and videos, a speaker, microphones, and a physical control button. The pin is said to be similar in size to an AirTag, with a thin, flat, circular disc shape and an aluminum and glass design.This week also saw rumors that Apple's smart home hub device will tout a robotic swiveling base, with a heavy emphasis on AI features. It is expected to finally be released in the spring, following a heavily delayed launch. Start your business with Shopify and get everything you need to sell online and in person.

So tap in to your students creativity, your students passions and interests as a way to support them in reaching and achieving those challenges that you also hold for them. -Karen Costa That’s a heavy thing for folks with ADHD to carry, that we are a burden on the other students in the classroom, that we are a burden on our teachers. And that is simply not true. -Karen Costa What we know now is that many times those are what are called stims in neurodivergent and ADHD and autistic communities. And those are actually a way that a lot of folks help themselves to stay present and regulated in their bodies so that they can direct their attention to the teacher or to the task at hand. -Karen Costa The best thing we can do to make the course real is as an instructor to be present in that online course. -Karen Costa Resources An Educator’s Guide to ADHD: Designing and Teaching for Student Success, by Karen Costa 99 Tips for Creating Simple and Sustainable Educational Videos: A Guide for Online Teachers and Flipped Classes, by Karen Costa Episode 577: Teaching and Learning When Things Go Wrong in the Classroom with Jessamyn Neuhaus Snafu Edu: Teaching and Learning When Things Go Wrong in the College Classroom, by Jessamyn Neuhaus Episode 578: Learning to Teach, Design, and Rest from Nature with Karen Costa Community of Inquiry Checklist, from Karen Costa Belmont University The Canary Code, by Ludmila Praslova Blackbird – The Harvard Opportunes AP 100 Photos of 2025 The Defined the Year Hard Core Literature
This week, Cultivating Place welcomes Terry Richardson in conversation with Abra Lee. Terry is known to many as The Black Thumb: Orchid Care Made Simple, an intrepid, enthusiastic, and encouraging orchid rescuer, educator, and storyteller. Terry has helped thousands of people rethink what it means to care for plants, specifically orchids! Terry's journey began not with expertise, but with curiosity and failure. He is a self-proclaimed “black thumb,” as opposed to the more well-known "green thumb". He began rescuing discarded orchids, specifically Phalaenopsis, and gradually learned how patience and consistency could revive even the most neglected plants. It's a good winter's tale. Enjoy! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you for listening over the years, and we hope you'll continue to support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow and engage in even more conversations like these. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

It's January. Social media's either screaming “new year, new you” or quietly rotting under beige motivation quotes. So this week's Dare is simple, powerful, and wildly underused:Tell your story. And actually share it.In this short Dare Day episode, Michelle challenges you to stop assuming you're “boring” and start recognising that your life has a plot — twists, turns, chaos, survival, growth.

Are AI images fooling you? They're everywhere. Perhaps you saw all those cute "candy cane" body suit photos and thought, "That looks fun." Or, maybe you posted one yourself! In this thought-provoking episode, Heather Creekmore unpacks the rise of AI-generated photos and their profound impact on how we see ourselves—and each other. What started years ago as a debate over Photoshop has now exploded into a world where anyone can create altered, “flawless” images of themselves in a matter of seconds. But the effects go far beyond just looking different in pictures. These doctored images are changing our brains, our body image, and even our spiritual health. Heather shares what happened when she created a bunch of AI photos of herself, including her hilarious results. What You’ll Hear The Evolution from Photoshop to AI:Heather Creekmore reminisces about early discussions on Photoshop and magazine covers—and how AI has made “perfect” images accessible to everyone, not just celebrities and models. Personal Experiment with AI Headshots:Hear about Heather’s own journey using an AI headshot generator, the surprising (and sometimes hilarious) results, and the unsettling emotional triggers that come with seeing an altered version of yourself. The Science Behind How Images Affect Us:Learn how the brain processes images, why filtered photos are so convincing (even when we know they're fake), and how repeated exposure to “perfect” bodies rewires our brains to set unrealistic standards. Real Dangers: Snapchat Dysmorphia and Beyond:Explore the rise in people seeking cosmetic procedures to look like their filtered selfies, and understand why AI-generated “ideal images” up the stakes for comparison, perfectionism, and dissatisfaction. Spiritual Implications:Heather dives deep into the spiritual cost of chasing AI perfection, discussing body image idolatry, why you were purposefully designed by a loving Creator, and the difference between being designed vs. manufactured. Practical Tips to Beat Comparison:Walk away with actionable advice, from mindful scrolling to curating your social media feed, setting screen time limits, and turning to prayer when you're tempted by those idealized images. Memorable Quotes “Now you can actually have an image of yourself to worship.” “Our brains know these images are fake, but our hearts still hurt as if they’re real.” “You’re not a red Solo cup. You’re not manufactured. You’re uniquely designed.” "Are you worshipping a perfect image, or are you worshipping a perfect God?"

Albert Einstein once said, “Organised people are just too lazy to go looking for what they want.” And I think he makes a very good point.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. Last week's episode on what to keep in your notes sparked a lot of follow-up questions around the concept of how to organise notes and digital files. In many ways, this has been one of the disadvantages of the digital explosion. Back in the day, important documents were kept inside filing cabinets and were organised alphabetically. Photos were mostly kept in photo books, which were then thrown into boxes and hidden under beds or in the attic. The best ones were put in frames and displayed on tables and mantelpieces—something we rarely do today. And notebooks, if kept, were put at the bottom of bookshelves or in boxes. The limiting factor was physical space. This meant we regularly curated our files and threw out expired documents. The trouble today is that digital documents don't take up visible physical space, so as long as you have enough digital storage either on your computer's hard drive or in the cloud, you can keep thousands of documents there without the need to curate and keep them updated. Eventually, it becomes practically impossible to know what we have, where it is, or even how to start finding it if we do know what we want to find. So, before I continue, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Julia. Julia asks, “ Hi Carl, I listened to your recent podcast episode on what to keep in your notes, and it got me thinking. How would someone go about organising years of digital stuff that has accumulated all over the place? Hi Julia, thank you for your question. A couple of years ago, I became fascinated with how the National Archives in Kew, London, handles archiving millions of government documents each year. Compared to us individuals, this would be extreme, but they have hundreds of years of experience in this matter, and my thinking was that if anyone knew how to manage documents, they would know. What surprised me was that they maintained a relatively simple system. That system was based on years and the department from which the documents originated. So, for example, anything that came from the Prime Minister's office last year would be bundled together under 2025. It would then be given the prefix PREM. (They do use a code for the years to help with cataloguing, as the National Archives will be keeping documents from different centuries) Upon further investigation, the reason they do it this way is that older documents are most likely searched for by year. Let's say I was writing a book on British disasters in the 20th century, and I wanted to learn more about the Aberfan Disaster, where a coal slag heap collapsed, crushing the village of Aberfan in Wales. All I would need to know would be the year, and a simple Google search would give me that. From there, I could search the National Archives for HOME 1966. That search would indicate the Home Office files for 1966. (The year the disaster happened) I would also know that the disaster happened in October, so I could refine my search to October dates. If we were to use a system similar to the one the National Archives uses to organise its documents, we would create parent folders by year. You can then go through your documents wherever they are and, using your computer's ability to detect when a document was created, have it show your list of files by when they were created. That way, all you need to do is select all files from a given year and move them into their appropriate year folder. Now, when I do this, I notice that I have files going back to 2015. The next step would be to allocate time each week to review your year folders and organise the documents into topic folders. For example, anything related to insurance can be placed in an insurance folder. How deep you go after that will depend on you. I don't go any further than that. I have three insurance documents. Car, health and home insurance. And given that these are now organised by year, if, in the unlikely event, I need to retrieve my 2019 health insurance documents, it would be very easy to find them. I would suggest starting at the current year and working backwards. The chances of you needing to find a document from ten years ago are slim. The need to find a 2025 document would be much higher. So start with your 2025 folder and work backwards. Don't be tempted to pre-set up your year folders with subfolders by topic. No one year will be the same. In 2016, I was teaching English to executives in Korea—something I no longer do. I have a lot of teaching materials; I don't want to throw away those, and they go up to 2020, so I have folders for those years related to my English teaching activities. After 2020, those folders are no longer in my files. Once you have the year folders set up, it's relatively quick and easy to get things organised. The important thing is not overthink this or to develop an overly complex folder structure. My advice is two levels and no more. The year folder and the subject material. For example, 2024 > Electric bills. Now, there is a category of documents that you need access to across multiple years. For example, my car's manual is something I will need to keep for as long as I have my current car. For these types of documents, you can create a folder called “current” or “active” (you decide the best name for it) and keep these in there. So, in my current folder, I have my company registration documents, my car's manual and registration documents, current insurance certificates, and other miscellaneous files I need access to regularly. This folder is pinned to the top of my file folders (you can do this by adding a 00 before the word Current, then setting the list to organise by name). Now for your work documents. This one is more challenging, as you're likely to be collaborating with others. There may also be legal requirements regarding document storage and archiving. When I worked in a law office, there were strict rules about how files were organised and stored, and for how long they were kept. However, that was not my concern. There were procedures that my colleagues and I followed for each file, and they were then sent to the archivist, who made sure that everything was stored in the correct way. My advice here would be to follow your company's procedures; if there are none, use the system I described above for your personal files. Another challenge we face today is that Microsoft, Google, and Apple are encouraging us to keep files within their app containers. For instance, if you create a Word document, Microsoft wants you to save that file within your OneDrive's Word folder. That makes sense, and for the current documents I am creating, I use that system. However, once I've sent feedback to my coaching clients, I save the original Pages file in that client's folder (I work in the Apple ecosystem). These folders are not year-specific. Many of my clients have been with me for years, and many of them come back from time to time. That is why, with work-related files, using years to organise your documents doesn't always work—particularly with ongoing projects, campaigns and clients. Given that most work related files and documents are shared with others and are kept within the company's own file storage system, the best solution is to ensure that the title you give to these files is something you would naturally search for. Think how you would find this document in twelve or twenty-four months time. For example, each year I write a workbook for my Ultimate Productivity Workshop. The title of that document is “2026 Ultimate Productivity Workbook”. I put the year first because if I were to search for “workbook”, within the results, I would find that the Productivity workshop's workbooks would all be grouped together by year, making it easy for me to select the right one. And that neatly leads me to another facet of working with digital files. Your computer is built for search. It's the biggest advantage computers have over your own brain. If it's within your computer's search scope it will find it within a split second. Really the only thing you need to do is ensure that you have given the document a title you will be able to search for. One of my favourite features of this computerised search is to use the “recents” smart list. This shows you all the documents you have worked on recently. The chances are something you are looking for at work will be something you have worked on recently. You might be writing a report or a proposal in Word, then in the Word app those documents will be at the top of the list. You may need to change the search setting in the list to last modified, not date created to see this, but it's a phenomenal way to find a document you need quickly. What about your notes? Last weekend, I watched a documentary on the beloved British comedian Sir Ken Dodd. A brilliant comedian and a man who left millions of people in laughter and happiness. Doddy, for that is what we called him, was in the habit of writing notes after each performance into a notebook. He would write how he felt the performance went, what jokes worked and didn't work, and what he could do to improve his performance next time. After his death in 2018, his wife set about saving his immense archive of props, costumes and puppets for the nation. When it came to his notebooks, there were thousands of them, dating from the 1950s to his death. His wife asked an archivist to come in to help organise these notebooks into something that could be searched by future comedians. The archivist decided to most logical way would be to organise them by year, and then add a tag for each theatre and city he performed in. This meant that if someone wanted to search for a specific note, they could type in the year and the name of the city or theatre, and a list of notes for that search would pop up. Simple, logical and minimised the amount of work required to get them in order. When it comes to your notes, keeping the structure simple makes sense. With your digital notes, you are organising them for quick search and retrieval. You don't need to worry about the date; all decent note-taking apps will date-stamp the creation of a note for you automatically. All you need to do is focus on creating a title for the note that makes sense to you so you can retrieve it years later. The key to getting your digital files organised is to keep things simple and let your computer do the hard work. The year folders you create can be reviewed over time. It's the kind of thing you can do while sitting on the sofa in the evening. Pick a year and categorise the documents you have collected for that year. If you do this over a couple of weeks, you will have all your digital files organised and searchable. I can assure you it's a wonderful feeling. Receipts can be organised into a Receipts folder, and within that folder, you can organise them by month. If you need to separate your personal and professional receipts, create a work and personal folder within that month's receipt folder. I know that adds a lot of levels, but you are only setting this up once a month, and it won't take you much more than a minute. Yet, that minute will save you hours later when you need to submit your expenses. I hope that has helped, Julia. Thank you for your question. I have a course called Mastering Digital Notes Organisation that shows you a simple yet effective way to get your notes organised so they are searchable and easy to find. I'll leave a link to that in the show notes. Thank you for listening, and it just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.

Day three of the Brendan Banfield trial focused heavily on crime scene evidence, surveillance footage, and extensive DNA analysis. Jurors heard from multiple Fairfax County detectives, forensic specialists, and lab experts who walked through graphic crime scene photos, bloodstain patterns, and physical evidence recovered from the home.Testimony detailed the discovery of weapons, blood-soaked items, and a backpack containing items linked to the crime scene. Surveillance footage from McDonald's was introduced, establishing a timeline of Brendan Banfield's movements and phone calls in the minutes leading up to the 911 calls.The court also heard from firearms experts, fingerprint analysts, and forensic scientists who explained DNA testing on the knife, clothing, shoes, bedding, and other surfaces.Several samples showed mixtures of DNA from Christine and Joe Ryan, while other samples were inconclusive due to lab limitations. Y-chromosome testing was also discussed to explain how male DNA was evaluated when mixed samples were present.The state is nearing the end of its case, with only two witnesses remaining before it is expected to rest. Court will resume Tuesday following the holiday break.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pretty-lies-and-alibis--4447192/support.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

The au pair at the center of the Brendan Banfield aggravated murder trial finished a grueling day of cross examination late Wednesday, and at times she grew visibly frustrated with the line of questioning. 25-year-old Juliana Peres Magalhães repeatedly told Banfield’s defense attorney that she could not remember key moments in the planning and lead up to the murders. Thursday’s testimony began with detectives describing the bloody aftermath of the master bedroom, as jurors took in photos and descriptions of the murder weapons, bloodied clothing and crime scene.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kenner Fortner, Sgt. with the Fairfax County Police Department, testified today in the Brendan Banfield murder trial. Banfield, a former IRS agent, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home.Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted the killings with the family's Brazilian au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, with whom he was having an affair. Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield. The defense maintains digital evidence does not support the state's catfishing theory.#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #Testimony #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #HiddenKillers #BreakingJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Apple has introduced Creator Studio, a subscription-based suite that embeds AI-assisted features directly into familiar productivity and creative tools while maintaining strict control over interfaces and user experience. Alongside this launch, Apple confirmed a multiyear partnership with Google to use Gemini and Google Cloud as foundational AI infrastructure, reportedly involving annual payments of around $1 billion. The approach reinforces Apple's strategy of treating AI models as interchangeable components while retaining authority at the application layer, shifting responsibility for governance and oversight away from the platform and toward downstream users and advisors.Google, meanwhile, expanded Gemini through a new Personal Intelligence feature that can reason across Gmail, Photos, Search, and YouTube data for consumer accounts. Available initially to paid subscribers and requiring explicit consent, the capability highlights Google's advantage in contextual data rather than model novelty. By keeping the feature out of Workspace for now, Google appears to be setting user expectations in consumer environments before enterprise deployment, a move that may influence how business users evaluate AI-enabled decision support in the future.Pax8 disclosed a data leak affecting approximately 1,800 MSP partners after an internal spreadsheet was mistakenly shared with a limited number of recipients. While no personally identifiable information was exposed, the data included licensing and commercial details that could be used for competitive intelligence or targeted attacks. The incident coincides with Pax8's rapid international expansion, new regional offices, and growing reliance by MSPs on its marketplace for procurement and security tooling, including the recent addition of Cork Cyber's risk intelligence platform.Taken together with renewed attention on AI governance, the Secure by Design initiative, and guidance on when to apply GenAI versus traditional code, the episode underscores a widening gap between automation and authority. Surveys show a majority of IT leaders now prioritize AI governance, reflecting concern over accountability, data flows, and failure handling. For MSPs and IT service providers, these developments reinforce the need to clearly define who has the power to approve, pause, or override AI-driven systems and platform dependencies, as clients increasingly expect service providers to explain and manage outcomes they may not fully control. Four things to know today Apple's Creator Studio and Google Partnership Show a Strategy Built on Control, Not AI OwnershipAs Gemini Reasons Across Gmail, Search, and YouTube, Google Redefines AI Advantage Around Context Pax8 Data Leak, Rapid Expansion, and Marketplace Growth Expose Risk Shift to MSPsAI Governance, Secure by Design, and GenAI Adoption Reveal a Growing Authority Gap for MSPs This is the Business of Tech.

Welcome to Paranormal Spectrum, where we illuminate the enigmatic corners of the supernatural world. I'm your host, Barnaby Jones, and today we have a very special guest joining us:Katie Paige is a researcher and investigator specializing in UFOs, anomalous phenomena, cryptids, and high strangeness, with a primary focus on the Rocky Mountain region. She joined the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in 2012 and has served in multiple investigative and leadership roles, including STAR Team Investigator, Special Assignment Team (SAT) member, Assistant State Director for Colorado, and Colorado MUFON State Director (2020–2023).Paige has also contributed to the preservation of MUFON's historical archives through her work with the MUFON Anomaly Research and Reporting System (MARRS), part of Project Aquarius. The archive originated in 2006 under then-MUFON International Director James Carrion and incorporates early MUFON and Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) records, along with private collections donated by Walt Andrus and John Schuessler. Between 2014 and 2015, Clifford Clift and Debbie Ziegelmeyer organized and categorized the archive, and in 2016, Ken St. John developed the MARRS redaction system to support ethical access. In 2017, Paige was appointed MARRS Administrator and Team Lead. MARRS now operates as one of six active Project Aquarius research rooms under the direction of Robert Spearing and his team.Paige is the director of Rocky Mountain Ranch Research, which she founded to investigate the Colorado property historically known as Clearview Ranch in the APRO case files, a site recognized for long-term anomalous activity that predates the Skinwalker Ranch case by more than a decade.

Buckle up for a wild ride on The Other Side of Midnight. It begins with a fiery "Warrior Wednesday" as Lionel and Lynn Shaw declare war on Big Tech, exposing the "digital harms" creating an anxious generation and calling for bans on social media for minors. The conversation then takes a sharp turn into the Hudson Valley woods to hunt for Bigfoot, where Lionel asks why skeptics demand HD photos of Sasquatch but not of the Almighty. Finally, dive into the legend of the Jersey Devil, debate the logic of Noah's Ark versus the Cambrian explosion, and strip away the "hippie dippy" nonsense of existence—because Lionel would rather "lick a belt sander" than talk about boring news.

Should you rename your Airbnb listing photos with SEO keywords before uploading them? In this Hosting Hotline episode, Sarah and Annette break down when photo naming actually matters and when it doesn't.They explain how Airbnb and other OTAs interpret image data, why guest search behavior matters more than marketing adjectives, and how intentional photo naming can support long-term visibility and accessibility across platforms. This isn't a shortcut or hack—but it is a smart, low-effort optimization that compounds over time.If you're serious about aligning your listing with how guests search, and helping platforms better understand what you truly offer, this episode is for you.Resources mentioned: Subscribe to the Thanks for Visiting Youtube Channel!Thanks for Visiting Bootcamp: Join the waitlist!Mentioned in this episode:Working hard but not making the money you should?
