This is Dr. MaryAnn Diorio, Novelist and Life Coach, welcoming you to another episode of Winning with the Word. Today is Monday, February 16, 2026, and this is episode #3 in Series 2026. This episode is titled, “The Demon Invasion.” Talk about demons elicits various types of responses, from “You’re crazy” to “You’re right.” In this week’s message, we’re going to explore briefly the topic of the current demon invasion and how the Christ-Follower should deal with it. We are going to focus only on what the Bible says because the Bible is Truth. But first, I want to tell you that my featured book for this week, THE ITALIAN CHRONICLES Trilogy, is on sale for only $21.00. This offer includes all three novels of the trilogy—The Madonna of Pisano, A Sicilian Farewell, and Return to Bella Terra. That’s a 42% discount off the regular price. This sale will last only until the end of February. So, get your copy now and follow the page-turning saga of Maria Landro as she faces losing her fortune, her family, and her faith. Click on the link below or in the show notes to get your copy. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HFJC4RM And now, on to this week’s message. For centuries in the Western world, the topic of demons was considered not only taboo but ridiculous and off limits. After all, we were far enough advanced on the civilization scale that we no longer needed the foolishness of believing in demons. Science had taken over the western mind, and science was king. Moreover, science, being observable and concrete, saw no indication of demons in the natural, material realm. And, if we couldn’t prove something scientifically, then it did not exist. If we could not see it, it wasn’t there. Anyone who still believed in demons, therefore, was considered backward, uneducated, and downright silly. But things have changed here in the West. Over the past half century, with the rising interest in Eastern mysticism and a renewed interest in paganism, the spiritual realm has become a topic of major focus and exploration. Why? Because science has failed to address the inner part of us that is intangible. In other words, the human heart. When God created you, He breathed into you a soul and you became a living being. Scripture says this in Genesis 2: 7: “The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.” In other words, God breathed into you His own breath, and this is what distinguishes you from every other creature. Your soul is what gives you life, what enables you to breathe and walk around and act. Your soul is what enables you to think and choose, to love and experience emotions. Your soul embodies your personality and is what makes you uniquely YOU. God also gave you a spirit. Your spirit is the core of who you truly are. It is the real you, your essence, and the only part of you that can connect to God because God is Spirit (John 4: 24). Now, what does all of this have to do with demons? Plenty. WHAT ARE DEMONS? Demons also are spirits, but they are the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim. The Nephilim were the offspring in human form of the union between fallen angels and human women. The purpose of this unholy union was to corrupt human DNA in order to prevent the Messiah from being born. These hybrid creatures called Nephilim were eventually destroyed in the great Flood of Noah. But their spirits still exist and are called demons. Moreover, there is much evidence today that the Nephilim have reappeared because fallen angels have re-entered the earthly sphere. You may be thinking, “Dr. MaryAnn, you’ve really lost it this time! Fallen angels impregnating women? Come on! You expect me to believe that?” If this is what you’re thinking, then I refer you to Genesis 6: 4: “Back then, and later, there were giants on the earth, who were born as a result of the unholy union of heavenly beings with the human daughters.” These “heavenly beings” were the fallen angels who had rebelled, together with Satan, against God and were evicted from Heaven. Now stay with me because it gets even more interesting. THE CONNECTION BETWEEN DEMONS AND MENTAL ILLNESS The LORD God became so angry at sin and at this unholy union between fallen angels and earthly women that He destroyed the earth in Noah’s flood. In that flood, every single person on earth died except Noah and his family. Only Noah and his family still had pure DNA from which the future Messiah could be born. After the Nephilim died, along with the rest of sinful humanity, their spirits continued to exist, and these spirits are what we now call demons. Since demons are disembodied spirits—in other words spirits without a body—they are continually looking for a body to inhabit, whether a human body or an animal body. When a person, through sin, allows a demon access to his life, that demon will encroach upon that person to the degree that the person allows it, even to the point of total possession of the person. Today, because of blatant, brazen sin, we are witnessing an increasing invasion of demonic spirits into people’s lives. The results of this invasion are catastrophic, first to the person who has allowed the demons entrance, and second to society in general. One such very serious result of demon invasion is the increase in mental illness. While there are cases of mental illness rooted in physical causes such as brain chemistry issues or brain trauma, a good deal of mental illness is rooted in demonic oppression. Sadly, this fact is rarely, if ever, considered by mental health professionals. Patients are given all kinds of medication that may alleviate the symptoms but never cure the root cause of the problem because the root cause is spiritual, not physical. The incidence of mental illness in our culture has increased exponentially and continues to increase. Suicide is on the rise, especially among young teens. Nervous breakdowns, panic attacks, anxiety, and depression have become commonplace. Incidents of random shootings are growing at alarming rates. Has anyone asked why? I posit that much of mental illness today is the result of demonic invasion of the human soul. Statistics gathered in 2022 from the National Institute of Mental Health show that approximately 23.1% of the United States population suffers from mental health issues. This calculates to almost 60 million people in the United States with a mental illness of any type. Why such a high number? THE NEFARIOUS EFFECTS OF SIN A chief reason is that the incidence of sin has increased. Sin, my friend, opens the door to Satan. I’m going to say that again. Sin opens the door to Satan. Our culture today openly condones sin and even celebrates it. Evil is promoted as good and good as evil. In choosing evil, people have actually invited disembodied, demonic spirits to use their bodies as dwelling places. And when a demon attaches to your body or, worse yet, lives inside your body through demonic possession, it wreaks havoc to your entire life, especially your mental life. If you yourself have been suffering from mental illness and are having great difficulty getting better despite counseling and medication, consider the possibility that demons may be involved and that you need to deal with your problem spiritually and not just physically or mentally. If you don’t know where to turn, seek the counsel of a pastor who is experienced in dealing with demons. If you still need help, email me at drmaryann@maryanndiorio.com and I will direct you to a deliverance ministry that can help you. You see, my friend, the goal of Satan and his demons is to steal, kill, and destroy you. Always. His goal never changes, nor do his tactics. Most of the world is oblivious to what is really happening out there. Hordes of demons have invaded our earth through what are called portals, or openings, between the natural realm of earth and the spirit realm above the earth where fallen angels reside. The Bible calls this area “the Second Heaven.” It is the headquarters from which Satan plans and strategizes his attacks on humanity. Above the Second Heaven is the Third Heaven where God dwells with the good angels and the saints of God, those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord and lived for him while on the earth. Directly above the earth is the First Heaven, the heaven we know as current residents of this earth. This First Heaven is now witnessing the invasion of demonic spirits from the Second Heaven. They are coming in the form of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena or UAPs, formerly called UFOs. The media is telling us that these sightings are aliens from other planets. In a way, the media is right. But what they are not telling you because they do not know is that these sightings are not aliens from other planets but fallen angels from the Second Heaven invading the earth to prepare the world for the rise of the AntiChrist, the personification of Satan himself. I have much more to say on the topic, but I will end here for this week. Please subscribe to this podcast for upcoming messages on the truth about what is happening in our world today. It is all prophesied and explained in the Holy Bible. We are living in a time of great deception. (Listen to my podcast for February 9th titled The Great Deception for more information.) The world needs truth. Truth is a person, and His name is Jesus Christ. If you have not yet met Jesus Christ, I invite you to meet Him now. Pray this simple prayer with me: Lord Jesus, I want to know You because I want to know Truth. I've been living a lie, and it has gotten me to places where I don't want to be. So I choose now to turn away from the lie and to embrace You Who are Truth. I invite You into my life and receive You as my Savior and Lord. Thank You for saving me. Thank You for revealing to me that You are Truth. In Your Name I pray. Amen. If you sincerely prayed this prayer from your heart, you are now a born-again child of God. Welcome to the Family of God! Write to me at drmaryann@maryanndiorio.com, and I will send you a free PDF e-booklet titled After You're Born Again.

Piše Veronika Šoster, bereta Maja Mool in Aleksander Golja. V romanu Črepinja nas Mirt Komel vabi v poletno razgreto, turistično oblegano in zgodovine polno Grčijo. Spremljamo skupino študentov arheologije, ki se ob zaključku zadnjega letnika študija odpravijo na zaključno prakso na Peloponez. Pisano druščino sestavljajo protagonist Hugo, njegova simpatija Medeja, njegov prijatelj Robi, študentski parček Sandi in Julija, še dva sošolca Arne in Rebeka ter nadobudni asistent Domen in spoštovani profesor Avgust Godeša. Njihova naloga je, da se lotijo izkopavanja manjšega naselja, ki ga je pokazalo sondiranje. Ves mesec skupaj živijo, se zabavajo, obedujejo, se pogovarjajo, berejo ali si kako drugače krajšajo čas med napornim delom, dokler ne pride do navdušujoče najdbe naslovne črepinje, ki vse obrne na glavo. Roman je razdeljen na tri dele, v prvem v večini spremljamo potovanje do Grčije in začetne dni na lokaciji, v drugem delu se odvije odkopavanje in zaplet s črepinjo, v zadnjem pa se situacija razplete in vračajo se domov. Čeprav je razdelitev romana razumljiva, sploh če potegnemo vzporednico s pravili grške tragedije, je prvi del praktično odveč, njihova pot je razvlečena, dolgočasna, generična, na ladji se ne dogaja nič zares izvirnega, tudi nič takega, kar bi postalo ključno kasneje v romanu, ampak se samo počasi spoznavamo z liki, pa še to bolj površno. Predvsem se je treba za kaj približno pravega dogajanja prebiti skozi mnoge citate, razpredanja o zapravljanju časa in čakanju likov, da se vse skupaj že začne, kar je res nelogična odločitev. Še posebej zato, ker si avtor nikoli ne vzame časa, da bi nam like zares plastično predstavil, ampak ostajajo kot neki obrisi. Najjasnejši je seveda pripovedovalec Hugo, ki pa se skriva za množico pretencioznih misli in citatov, ki jih sicer kar vsi študentje in oba profesorja po malem vpletajo v pogovore. Hugo je nezadovoljen s študijem oziroma ljudmi, ki ga obkrožajo na fakulteti, saj niso dovolj predani, hitro dobimo občutek večvrednosti, vendar pa bolj kot ne ostaja pri tihem zmrdovanju in modrovanju. Vseeno mu še najbolj pridemo blizu, česar ne moremo reči za ostale. So precej nerealistični, seveda se po malem prerekajo, malo zažurajo in so ljubosumni, utrujeni ali razigrani, a ostajajo pretirani, kot spisani za roman: berejo le knjige, povezane s študijem, pogovarjajo se večinoma o antični zgodovini ipd. Razumljivo, z njimi je tudi avtoriteta, ki se ji očitno želijo dokazati, a vse skupaj izpade bolj kot neka predstava ali scena kot pa dejansko sobivanje živahnih in zagnanih študentov. Ostajajo nerazločljiva skupina, čeprav ima avtor več kot dovolj prostora, da bi jim dal prepoznavne značaje in značilnosti. Problem je tudi v tem, da jih je preveč in da jih Hugo nenehno ločuje od sebe oziroma prepogosto o njih razmišlja v množini, zato se specifike likov izgubijo. Medeja ostaja le na ravni ljubezenskega interesa, pri čemer si ves roman s Hugom delita zelo malo trenutkov, med njima nikoli ne začutimo iskrice. Tudi Hugo ne gre dlje od tega, da razloži, da so vanjo vsi po malem zatreskani, saj ima nekakšen nedoločljiv odnos, kar je izredno plehko in površno. Ljubezenska zgodba, ki jo napoveduje zavihek romana, se tako ne razvije dlje od zagledanosti, vmes je za precej časa tudi pozabljena, dokler avtorju zaradi razpleta spet ne pride prav. Če se še malo vrnem k sami skupnosti, je opazno, da je navdih za roman Podobnost Tane French, kjer imamo prav tako tesno povezano skupnost, v katero je vnesen razdor. Hugo jih na neki točki celo imenuje »velika disfunkcionalna družina«. A ker v Črepinji ni dovolj razdelanih psiholoških profilov, značajev in kompleksnejših odnosov, se intriga in napetost hitro izgubita. Komel si sicer prizadeva, da bi intrigo vpisal že v uvodni del romana, saj večkrat omeni, da se na odpravi zgodi nekaj pretresljivega. Kar naj bi delovalo kot srhljiva napoved, pa kmalu razvodeni, saj podobno misel poudari prevečkrat, to deluje kot podcenjevanje bralca. Poleg tega z vsem poudarjenim napeljevanjem res obljublja nekaj nepredstavljivega, in tega pričakovanja seveda ni tako lahko izpolniti. Veliko bolj se roman razživi v osrednjem delu, ki je najbolj tesno povezano s samim arheološkim delom. Njihovo delo jih veseli in izčrpava, ves dan so na žgoči vročini, držijo se stroge rutine in postopkov, poleg dela na terenu jih zvečer čaka še pisanje dnevnikov: »Hoteli smo biti Schliemanni ali pa vsaj Evansi, postali pa smo sodobni Sizifi, ki kotalijo svoje kamenje in si nas obenem morate zamišljati kot srečne – ker srečni smo bili, čeprav po več dni ni bilo ničesar na spregled, razen zavajajoče oblikovanih kamenčkov in enoznačno nepomembnih glist –, potem pa so se nekaj metrov kasneje začeli pojavljati prvi drobni glineni ostanki, ki so nas tako razveselili, kot da bi naenkrat našli nič manj kot Trojo.« Tu roman dobi svoj zagon, se odlepi od skrbno postavljene kulise in končno ustvari pravo vzdušje, sploh s Hugovo najdbo črepinje, za katero profesor oceni, da gre za del posode ali vaze. Pomen črepinje buri duhove in razplamti se zanimiva teoretična debata, kako se je znašla prav tam in kako si jo razlagajo, utrne se kar nekaj res dobrih idej. Škoda le, da ta del romana kar zleti mimo, potem pa nas čaka še zadnji del, kjer se vse skupaj spet razvleče in ustavi, sploh zato, ker glede na zastavljeno situacijo nikoli ni večjega dvoma, kaj se je zares zgodilo. Vzdušje motita tudi slogovna in jezikovna neenotnost, vse skupaj je precej velika zmešnjava. Številne variante naj bi sicer razgibale besedilo in govor, a včasih so razlike prevelike in moteče. Najprej je tu vztrajno uporabljanje grščine, citatov, napisov in primerjav z antičnimi junaki, kar naj bi nas res prestavilo v Grčijo, a deluje preobloženo, pretirano (namesto 'puške v koruzo' bodo na primer vrgli 'loke v ajdova polja'). Hugo uporablja nekatere narečne besede, na primer stolice za stole, a včasih so vseeno kar stoli. Pri nekaterih besedah je uporabljen kar fonetični zapis, vendar ni jasno, zakaj samo pri nekaterih (na primer sprajt in ojro), potem imamo še nekaj, kar naj bi bilo klasičen študentski sleng, a spet ni jasno, kateri generaciji naj bi pripadal, saj ne posnema sodobnejše govorice, sicer pa je tudi veliko visokega knjižnega jezika, ki ga na trenutke spremlja celo predpreteklik. Poleg tega je roman poln podrobnega opisovanja v slogu Tadeja Goloba, od premikanja do posameznih obrokov, oblačil in predmetov. Ves čas je v zraku občutek zavlačevanja, saj se prebijamo skozi mnoge zastranitve, vrinjene stavke in nepomembne informacije. Ob tem sploh ni dvoma, da avtor Mirt Komel premore široko znanje o področju, saj kot za šalo stresa primere iz antične književnosti, zgodovine in družbe. Drugo pa je, kako to znanje prenesti v roman, da mu pusti dihati. Težko je verjeti, da bi bili študentje po nekaj letih študija tako vešči in razgledani, da bi nonšalantno uporabljali citate iz del ali pa da bi se v njihov jezik že tako organsko vpletle vse mogoče grške simbolike in metafore. Zato se bolj kot v zgodbi o skupini študentov, ki se zaplete v nepričakovano situacijo, počutimo kot na ekskurziji po antični Grčiji. Glede na številne omembe žanrskih del, kot je Peščeni planet, bi bilo veliko bolj izvirno ali sočno, če bi se avtor odločil zaiti v bolj konkretne žanrske vode, da bi se vse te omembe bogov res izkazale za bistvene, ali pa da bi vsaj v like bolj strastno zakopal. Res je, da gre konec koncev za Hugovo zgodbo, saj je on tisti, ki najde črepinjo, prav tako je on tisti, na kogar vse najbolj vpliva, a vse, kar ga obkroža, bi lahko postalo kaj več kot kulisa, ali pa se preprosto odrinilo na stran, da bi lahko imel vso našo pozornost.

I ragazzi e le ragazze esplorano il tema del futuro e dell'intelligenza artificiale con la freschezza e la curiosità di chi lo sta già vivendo, tra domande, sogni e riflessioni che ci obbligano a guardare avanti con occhi nuovi. Cosa significa crescere in un mondo dove le macchine imparano, parlano e forse pensano? Quale spazio rimane all'immaginazione, alla scuola, all'essere umano? In pochi minuti, le voci della 3C compongono un racconto collettivo fatto di intuizioni, paure e speranze, che restituisce il punto di vista delle nuove generazioni sul cambiamento tecnologico. Questo primo episodio è un invito a pensare il futuro non come un mistero da temere, ma come un terreno di dialogo, dove la conoscenza, la curiosità e la responsabilità possono incontrarsi per costruire insieme un domani più consapevole.

You've got to do what I finally did this episode, and get off the highways that bypass the town of Duncannon, sitting just downstream of the confluence of the Juniata and the Susquehanna. Why? As a local bartender told me, "I call it FunCannon!" This episode came together in about a day and a half, thanks to Michael Lindgren at Lindgren Craft Brewery in Duncannon. I've been drinking their beer at Pisano's Winery here in Millheim, and when circumstances put me on the road to Duncannon, I thought I'd see if he could give us an interview. He did, and my traveling companion Dave Dreese and I went there, and to the Doyle Hotel across the way, and an Appalachian Trail hostel called Kind Of Outdoorsy, and the iconic Red Rabbit Drive In, and then on up the river to Williams French Fries in Millersburg. That put us on the far side of the Susquehanna, 20 miles either way from a bridge to our side of the river. No worries: we got a ride on the only remaining paddlewheel ferry in the US, the Millersburg Ferry. Come along, it's like riding with Hank and Tom and Becky on the river. What else? Well, What I'm Drinking Today was a delicious dram of Michter's 10 Year Old Rye, the 2025 release, and it is exceptional. The Smack Dab In The Centre segment is about the upcoming Another World Music Festival, three days of 30 bands on two stages, right here in beautiful Penns Valley, the smack-dab center itself! Of course there's more American Whiskey Master Class news as we get closer to the September 23 launch date! Events in Washington, PA and Baltimore, and if you just can't wait, you can pre-order it here! Next episode will be about the great local grocery stores in central PA, everything from four aisle markets to ten-store chains with full-service butcher shops and fresh seafood. They aren't Whole Foods or Wegmans, but they're not 7-11s either, and they're out here where central PA actually lives. Let's go shopping! See you in two weeks! Until then?

They unpack what it really takes to turn data into decisions—from identity resolution to clean room collaboration.Josh explains why first-party data, while valuable, often misses key signals and population segments. He shares how clean room technology and smarter data integration can close those gaps and improve decision-making across planning, activation, and measurement.

The beloved Blues Brothers universe will come roaring back to life over the next few years with forays into television, film, live events, music and much more with the first IP offering being a brand new original Graphic Novel: THE BLUES BROTHERS: THE ESCAPE OF JOLIET JAKE. Written by Stella Aykroyd, Luke Pisano and James Werner with artist Felipe Sobriero, The Blues Brothers: The Escape of Joliet Jake is both a love letter and sequel to the original Blues Brothers film. With editorial oversight by Dan Aykroyd, the utmost care has been taken to ensure this new chapter is true to the classic skits, legendary film, and iconic albums. The result is a wild and entertaining ride for both the longtime fans, and those new to the world of Jake and Elwood Blues. This project was originally conceived with the architect of The Blues Brothers, Judy Belushi Pisano, who sadly passed away during this book's production.Luke Pisano shares "The Blues Brothers weren't just a SNL act or movie, they were real musicians, in awe of the legends who came before them. This book is a continuation of that labor of love. This book is dedicated to my mother, Judy Belushi Pisano - the widow of John Belushi and the fierce, loving steward of the Blues Brothers legacy for over 40 years. After John's passing, she didn't just preserve the story-she expanded it. With the team at Z2, and with the talents of Stella and James, we finally found the right partners to make that dream turn reality. I am proud-and humbled-to continue her work in expanding this world of fun, music, and mischievousness.""It makes complete sense to me that the new generation of Blues Brothers will begin in comic book form, where the possibilities for destroying police cars is infinite, physics have no bounds, and the potential for jam partners is off the charts." James Werner points out. "The Blues Brothers universe is full of music and absurdity. Jake and Elwood are FINALLY reuniting , and I am forever grateful that Luke and Stella have asked me to join the band."Stella Aykroyd adds "Elwood and Jake are precious to me, in fact, one of them is actually my Dad. I've helped him sharpie ELWOOD onto his knuckles before Blues Brothers shows with 'Brother Zee', I've walked behind him as he's made his way through a sea of fans dressed as Elwood and Jake all over the world and I've been his co-pilot on the road, where he's explained to me the proper way to T-bone a car. Now, with Elwood, and the one and only 'Sister Zee', Judy Belushi's blessing, Luke, James, and I take the wheel and swerve into the endless possibilities that Z2, Felipe Sobreiro, and the comic book world provide for Jake and Elwood. In many ways the antics we've seen from the Blues Brothers have always been perfectly suited for the comic strip; flying cars, supernatural nuns, dusting an entire apartment building worth of bricks off your shoulders, and now Felipe Sobreiro's illustrations bring them to life once again. Our development process was guided and inspired by the stories and real life occurrences from the lives of Judy, John, and Dan and their process of conception of the Blues Brothers and using it not only for easter eggs but for plot points. I am so excited to share this whole new story with all our music loving anarchists."Lastly, Z2 President, Josh Bernstein adds "The Blues Brothers are comedy, pop-culture and musical royalty. Z2 is proud to expand the creative universe built by Dan Akyroyd, John and Judy Belushi-Pisano and welcome new band members: Luke, Stella and James. When you mix their story with the art of Brazilian Blues Brother, Felipe Sobreiro, fans of all ages will be delighted with the epic return of Jake & Elwood Blues. (We apologize in advance to the fine men and women of the Chicago Police Department.)"THE BLUES BROTHERS: THE SCAPE OF JOLIET JAKE will be available for pre-order via Amazon, Barnes and Noble, as well as many other fine independent book, comic, and record stores.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Anthony "Little Augie" Carfano was a powerful figure in New York's mafia, rising through the ranks during Prohibition and establishing himself as a key player in the Luciano crime family, running lucrative gambling operations in New York and Miami. His loyalty to Frank Costello and refusal to align with Vito Genovese during a power struggle in the late 1950s marked him as a threat. On September 25, 1959, Carfano and socialite Janet Palermo were executed in a mafia hit likely orchestrated by Genovese. Carfano's murder symbolized the end of the old guard in the mafia and the rise of a more ruthless generation of mobsters. Despite being a significant mafia hit, the case remains unsolved, and Carfano's death is remembered as a turning point in the violent evolution of organized crime.(commercial at 9:38)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
