Feeling at ease. Still sinning. Still telling yourself, Allah is Forgiving. But what if that calm is exactly the danger? In this powerful reminder, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan uncovers why the Quran warns against feeling safe from Allah's plan, and why delay, comfort, and "I'll repent later" have destroyed people before. Why were the Salaf afraid when doors of Dunya opened? When does ease stop being mercy? And why does punishment often come when people feel least threatened? A sobering wake-up for anyone relying on time instead of repentance.

For years, this house felt normal. Safe. Ordinary. Close enough to family to feel familiar. And then—slowly, quietly—it began to change. Not with footsteps or apparitions, but with moments that didn't fit together… until they did.A couch that vibrated like something invisible had settled into it. A television that changed channels on its own, then began shutting itself off every night. A bathroom no one wanted to use, for reasons no one could explain. Phones that rang without being connected to anything. A voice captured on an answering machine that shouldn't have been able to record at all.At first, each incident felt isolated. Easy to dismiss. Easy to rationalize. Then things became physical.Posters were torn down while everyone slept elsewhere. A presence that made a bedroom feel occupied when it clearly wasn't. And finally, a sound so close, so unmistakable, that it sent someone running from the room without looking back.Whatever was happening didn't follow the family when they left—but it left behind questions that never quite settled.#trueghoststories #hauntedhouse #paranormalencounters #realparanormal #unexplainedphenomena #ghoststorytime #hauntingexperiences #paranormalpodcast #creepystories #trueparanormalLove real ghost stories?

Why attachment wounds heal best in safe relational contexts (mentorship, IPF, romantic, community), not in isolation. Today we discuss how this plays out. We explore the Buddhist wisdom of grounding and establishing inner safety in order to walk the insight meditation path, and how this parallels attachment repair. True awareness only blossoms when the body feels safe.✨ Just a few days left to join ✨⁠Meditation x Attachment Level One⁠ (https://www.mettagroup.org/meditation-x-attachment-level-one)

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife estimates 14.5 million wild vertebrate animals are killed on Oregon’s roadways each year. Data shows it’s difficult to control driver behavior with things like road signs and traffic regulations. A more effective way to mitigate animal fatalities is by redirecting the animals themselves. Wildlife crossings — human-made structures that allow animals to safely pass through habitats near roadways — have been a successful tool in preventing animal-motor fatalities. States like Montana, Colorado and California have over 100 wildlife crossings, while Oregon has only six. Rachel Wheat is a spatial ecologist who serves as the wildlife connectivity coordinator for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. She joins us to discuss her work and tactics for improving transportation infrastructure for wildlife in Oregon.

The White House says President Trump and his advisers are discussing options for how to acquire Greenland. The self-governing territory of Denmark, a NATO partner, is located in a prime spot to monitor threats to the U.S. and is rich in rare earth minerals. Danish officials have long rejected the proposal. Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, spoke to CBS Mornings about Congress' role following the U.S. operation in Venezuela. He also addressed the Trump administration's comments on Greenland. When asked about the U.S. possibly using military force, he said, "it won't happen under my watch. I will do everything to stop any kind of military takeover of Greenland." Democrats on Capitol Hill welcomed witnesses of the Jan. 6 attack to testify at a public hearing Tuesday and held a vigil honoring the victims. Meanwhile, the White House posted a new website about Jan. 6, calling the rioters "patriotic" and accusing Capitol police of escalating tensions with the crowd. Scott MacFarlane has more. Nick Reiner, the son of Rob and Michele Reiner, is set to be arraigned Wednesday in the killing of his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. It comes as details emerge about his time in custody and how his mental health history could play a role in his case. Matt Gutman reports. A new study found potential health concerns with the drinking water on some airlines where you might order coffee or tea. The review was of airplane drinking water stored in onboard tanks, not bottled products. Of the 10 major airlines, Delta scored best, while JetBlue and American were the bottom two carriers. "Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner is starring in a new thriller series called "Steal." She plays Zara, who works at a London pension fund investment company when thieves force her to help them steal billions of dollars. She talks to CBS Mornings about the series, how she prepared for the role and rising to fame in "Game of Thrones." The CBS game show "Hollywood Squares" returns Wednesday for its second season with CBS Mornings co-host Nate Burleson as the host. Natalie Morales got an inside look at how the show comes together. On the final installment of "The State of Spirituality with Lisa Ling," CBS Mornings heads to Northern California, where people seeking a break from the loud world go to be in silence for eight days.

Joe and Hollywood dive into the latest twist in the Dolphins' offseason, with reports that Mike McDaniel will be involved in the GM search — a move that raises plenty of eyebrows. They debate whether it's a strange look for a coach on the hot seat to have a say in hiring the next general manager and question how secure McDaniel's job really is. The conversation also touches on comments suggesting the head coach may already be safe and Tua Tagovailoa's openness to a fresh start next season as uncertainty continues to surround the franchise.

Grounding and Bonding Course – 2023 NEC® Mastery for Electricians The Grounding and Bonding Course at FastTraxSystem.com is the most comprehensive and technically accurate online training program available for mastering electrical grounding and bonding systems under the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC®). This course goes far beyond basic grounding theory. It provides real-world application of Article 250, including a deep technical breakdown of:Equipment Grounding Conductors (EGCs)Supply-Side Bonding Jumpers (SSBJs)Main Bonding JumpersSystem Bonding JumpersGrounded Conductor bondingService vs. feeder groundingSeparately Derived Systems (SDS)Effective ground-fault current pathsBonding of enclosures, raceways, and structural metalSizing rules using Tables 250.122 and 250.102(C)(1)Students learn how and why grounding and bonding rules exist, how fault current flows, and how to properly design and install grounding systems that meet 2023 NEC compliance, improve system safety, and eliminate costly inspection failures. This course is ideal for:Journeyman ElectriciansMaster ElectriciansElectrical InspectorsElectrical EngineersElectrical ContractorsApprentices preparing for licensing exams⚡ What Makes This Course Different Unlike generic grounding classes, this program teaches the engineering logic of fault-current return paths, explains the difference between service-side bonding and load-side grounding, and clearly distinguishes when conductors are classified as SSBJs vs EGCs — a topic that causes massive confusion in the field. You will master:Proper bonding on the line side of the service disconnectCorrect sizing of supply-side bonding jumpersWhen Table 250.122 does and does not applyHow NEC grounding rules interact with overcurrent device operationHow improper bonding leads to dangerous voltage on metal enclosuresBy the end of this course, you will understand grounding and bonding at the same technical level as electrical engineers, inspectors, and code panel members.

Getting an investor to fund your business isn't just about your idea, industry, team, or even your business model.  What can help or tank your efforts often comes down to how you show up in the room.  Your mindset, how you handle the power dynamics, and whether you actually see yourself as the one offering value, not asking for it. The truth is that many founders operate from a place of desperation, and investors can sense it immediately. You lose sight of the fact that you and your business are the prize. You treat the investor like a boss, not a peer, or you say your schedule is completely open. You come across as overly eager or grateful for the opportunity.  These are all things that quietly make an investor pull back, even if the idea itself is strong. If you walk into investor conversations acting like you're asking for permission instead of offering an opportunity, getting funding is harder.  This is something founder-turned-angel investor Shefqet Avdullau knows all too well. As a super-connector with deep experience on both sides of the table, he brings a rare perspective shaped by building, exiting, and now backing companies. How should founders actually show up in investor conversations? How do you know when an investor will help you build something, or quietly make things harder? In this episode, we unpack the parts of fundraising no one puts on the pitch deck: why desperation is detectable (and deadly), why treating investors like they're above you destroys leverage, and why confidence is often what really moves a round forward.    Topics Covered; Why fundraising fails before the pitch even begins How to avoid looking desperate to investors  The subtle signals investors read instantly, including desperation and lack of leverage How to engineer FOMO using calendar density and scarcity Why "owning the elephant in the room" builds more trust than perfect metrics ever will The soft-commit strategy founders should use before officially opening a round Why a bad investor is often 10x worse than no investor The SAFE agreement mistake that can cost you your company Why easy yeses are a red flag, not a win The "two-week vacation test" reveals if you've got a company or a stressful job How founders accidentally become bottlenecks About the Guest  Shefqet Avdullau is a founder, active angel investor, board advisor, and "super connector," primarily in the tech ecosystem. He has made 17 investments in the last four years, with two successful exits. Today, he backs advisors and mentors tech startups, using his experience to help new founders navigate the challenges with strategic funding and real-world guidance. Having started his career as a software engineer and later founding, scaling, and exiting his own ventures, he brings an operator-first perspective to early-stage investing.

Grounding and Bonding Course – 2023 NEC® Mastery for Electricians The Grounding and Bonding Course at FastTraxSystem.com is the most comprehensive and technically accurate online training program available for mastering electrical grounding and bonding systems under the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC®). This course goes far beyond basic grounding theory. It provides real-world application of Article 250, including a deep technical breakdown of:Equipment Grounding Conductors (EGCs)Supply-Side Bonding Jumpers (SSBJs)Main Bonding JumpersSystem Bonding JumpersGrounded Conductor bondingService vs. feeder groundingSeparately Derived Systems (SDS)Effective ground-fault current pathsBonding of enclosures, raceways, and structural metalSizing rules using Tables 250.122 and 250.102(C)(1)Students learn how and why grounding and bonding rules exist, how fault current flows, and how to properly design and install grounding systems that meet 2023 NEC compliance, improve system safety, and eliminate costly inspection failures. This course is ideal for:Journeyman ElectriciansMaster ElectriciansElectrical InspectorsElectrical EngineersElectrical ContractorsApprentices preparing for licensing exams⚡ What Makes This Course Different Unlike generic grounding classes, this program teaches the engineering logic of fault-current return paths, explains the difference between service-side bonding and load-side grounding, and clearly distinguishes when conductors are classified as SSBJs vs EGCs — a topic that causes massive confusion in the field. You will master:Proper bonding on the line side of the service disconnectCorrect sizing of supply-side bonding jumpersWhen Table 250.122 does and does not applyHow NEC grounding rules interact with overcurrent device operationHow improper bonding leads to dangerous voltage on metal enclosuresBy the end of this course, you will understand grounding and bonding at the same technical level as electrical engineers, inspectors, and code panel members.

Get ready to challenge the dominant narrative around birth in this deeply inspiring conversation with Australian midwife, researcher, and rebel, Dr. Melanie Jackson — host of The Great Birth Rebellion podcast. Melanie joins Debra Pascali‑Bonaro for a heartfelt and provocative exploration of what happens when we choose to birth outside the system — and within our power. Together, they unpack why more families are stepping away from institutional birth, how true midwifery care transforms outcomes, and how bliss, laughter, and joy can ripple through even the most intense moments of labor. Melanie shares intimate stories from her own births — one long and slow, the other fast, powerful, and joyfully filled with laughter — and offers profound wisdom about matrescence, physiological birth, and how honoring women's autonomy creates safer, more pleasurable births for everyone. In this episode you'll hear: The bliss and laughter that surprised Melanie in her second home birth What matrescence means and why it matters in understanding the transformation to motherhood Why "birth outside the system" can be the safest, most aligned choice for some families The evidence behind continuity of midwifery care — and why it should be the universal standard How pleasure, joy, and oxytocin weave through both sex and birth The global movement of rebellious midwives creating change from within Episode Highlights 2:44 — Melanie shares her journey into midwifery and the concept of "Matrescence." 5:07 — Melanie describes her two very different birth experiences. 13:12 — Discussion of "The Great Birth Rebellion" and its origins as a podcast. 14:25 — The importance of evidence-based maternity care and the role of midwives. 17:03 — Exploring the connection between birth, pleasure, and sexuality. 18:15 — The power of oxytocin and the potential for joy and bonding in birth. 19:00 — Where to find Melanie online and her offerings for midwives and parents. About Melanie Jackson: Dr. Melanie Jackson is a private midwife, researcher, mentor, and host of The Great Birth Rebellion podcast. With a PhD in midwifery on "Birth Outside the System," she is reshaping how midwives and mothers understand evidence, power, and physiology in birth.

In this episode an update, stories of intimate partner violence, and folks you should know about. I wanted to bookend the episode with a story of bravery and power. Please stick around til the end, you will want to know about Chris Bearchell. She rocks.  I'd like to thank Feedspot for alerting us to the amazing fact that Panic: queer True Crime is, for the second year, in the top ten most listened to queer true crime podcasts. Thanks to Feedspot and thanks to you for making it happen. Hugs! Fanny & Stella: A Wild, Wild Victorian Ride Ernest Boulton and Frederick Park were "respectable" Victorian gentlemen who found freedom onstage as Fanny and Stella. Their drag performances thrilled audiences across 1860s–70s England—until they brought their show into the streets. Their arrest and scandalous trial exposed the era's hypocrisy and crushed both love and ambition. Fanny, Stella, and their circle lived boldly in a world that punished authenticity, making them pioneers to be celebrated. 2025 Update: Justice for Jimmie 'Jay' Lee in the Ole Miss Murder Case After an 11–1 mistrial and the later discovery of Jimmie "Jay" Lee's body, Timothy Herrington Jr. took a plea deal for Lee's killing. The judge said Mississippi "got it right this time," yet the state still lacks LGBTQ+ protections or hate crime coverage. Both young men had promising futures ended by homophobia—a reminder that being gay isn't deadly, but hate is. Her Short, Brilliant Life Was Cut Short by Violence When Girlalala (LaLa) and her boyfriend, Shanoyd Whyte Jr., fought on November 14, 2025, tragedy struck. Whyte pulled a gun and killed LaLa, leaving the community in shock. Intimate partner violence is alarmingly high in the trans community—but help is available. If you or someone you know is in danger, please seek support. Timothy Smith Murder Trial Update Timothy Smith and Herbert Swilley seemed the picture of happiness in Ocala, Florida—until coworkers found Smith dead in March 2023. He'd been drugged, strangled, and left in a staged scene. Months later, Swilley was charged with first-degree premeditated murder. Warrior Chris Bearchell: "No More Sht" Christine "Chris" Bearchell was a fearless Canadian lesbian activist who helped reshape LGBTQ+ rights. From challenging sexist dress codes in high school to leading protests after Toronto's 1981 bathhouse raids, she fought back against police harassment and public shaming. A founder of the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives and key voice in securing Ontario's human rights protections, she also championed sex workers' rights and HIV/AIDS outreach. Bearchell died in 2007 at 53—remembered as a visionary warrior who deserves wider recognition. You deserve to live a life free of violence of any kind.

The narrative shifts to the family's trauma, describing a teenage Xi Jinping escaping detention only to be denounced by his starving mother for the family's safety. Torigian discusses Xi Jinping's exile to the "sacred" but impoverished Northwest, which exposed him to peasant realities. Meanwhile, an imprisoned Xi Zhongxun wrote unanswered letters to leadership, pleading for relief and expressing concern over the country's agricultural stability. NUMBER 14

When the last machine winds down and the lights flicker into their nighttime hum, there's a moment every closer knows well—the quiet that settles in once everyone else is gone. It's supposed to be peaceful. Predictable. Safe. But in this factory, silence doesn't mean empty. Night after night, something lingers after the doors are locked. Sounds echo where no one stands. Music bleeds from radios that shut off the instant they're touched. Air tools hiss with no air behind them. And footsteps—measured, deliberate—follow whoever dares to walk the darkened aisles alone. For one veteran closer, every shift became a race against the alarm system, sprinting through shadows while unseen movement tracked his every step. Papers drifted from windows sealed tight. Breath brushed the back of his neck. And the building itself began to feel less like a workplace… and more like something watching, waiting. Because once the lights go out, this place doesn't feel abandoned. It feels awake. #RealGhostStories #HauntedWorkplace #ParanormalEncounter #TrueGhostStory #NightShiftHaunting #HauntedFactory #ParanormalActivity #UnexplainedPhenomena #GhostStories Love real ghost stories?
