He thought he was just stopping by his girlfriend's house to make amends—but something in the basement had other plans. While waiting alone in the living room, he heard heavy footsteps rising from below… then retreating. Once? He could explain that away. But when it happened again—louder, angrier, and followed by a door slamming with violent force—he knew he wasn't alone. The kicker? No one else was home. In this chilling firsthand account, he recounts the night he came face-to-face with something unseen… and deeply pissed off. Was it trying to send a message—or simply warn him away?

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm absolutely honored to be joined on the show today by: MK ULTRA survivors, overcomers, and whistleblowers, published writers and authors, warrioresses, and 2 of my - and many of your - personal inspirations and heroes: Dr. Juliette Engel and Cathy O'BrienJuliette and Cathy are two extraordinary women whose lives, marked by unimaginable hardship, have become powerful testaments to resilience, healing, and the human spirit's capacity to overcome. Both survivors of the CIA's covert MK ULTRA program, their stories of breaking free from trauma and dedicating their lives to helping others are profoundly inspiring. Through their courage, advocacy, and unwavering commitment to truth, they have transformed personal pain into a beacon of hope for countless others.Though their paths differ, Juliette and Cathy share a profound connection as survivors of MK ULTRA who transformed their pain into purpose. Both women faced systemic abuse within powerful institutions, yet they refused to remain silent. Juliette's work in rescuing trafficking victims and Cathy's advocacy for mind control survivors complement each other, highlighting the interconnectedness of personal healing and societal reform. Their stories underscore the power of resilience, faith, and action in overcoming even the darkest of circumstances.Their lives are a call to action, encouraging others to recognize the signs of exploitation, seek healing, and stand against injustice. Juliette's and Cathy's unwavering commitment to truth and compassion serves as a reminder that no matter how deep the trauma, the human spirit can rise, heal, and inspire others to do the same. Through their voices, they light the way for a world where knowledge and love triumph over control and fear.Today, we are honored to join Juliette and Cathy on this powerful episode as they courageously unveil a critical yet unseen crisis: the sinister mind control programming that drives survivors toward self-harm, self-destruction, and silent elimination. Each day, countless precious lives are stolen by this insidious mechanism, their truths of non-consent buried beneath a false narrative of choice. Unseen by society and often unknown to survivors themselves, this default programming ensures silence, perpetuating a cycle of harm that robs victims of their right to heal. Beyond the horrors of ritual abuse and mind control, this silent holocaust stands as one of humanity's greatest atrocities, claiming lives in vain while their stories remain untold.We are deeply grateful to Juliette and Cathy for stepping forward to shine a light on this invisible danger, a threat that endangers the very souls who endured unimaginable horrors as children. With a gentle trigger warning for survivors of mind control or ritual abuse, we invite you to approach this episode with care. Set aside distractions and lend your full heart and attention to these remarkable heroes. Together, we'll explore the reality of self-harm programming, hear powerful personal testimonies of triumph, and discover how survivors and society can unite to protect innocent lives from being lost. Let their voices inspire us to act, to heal, and to honor the truth.CONNECT WITH JULIETTE: Website: https://julietteengel.com/CONNECT WITH CATHY:Website: https://trance-formation.com/Purchase her books: https://trance-formation.com/buy-cathy-obrien-books-official/Twitter: @RealCathyObrien - Support the show

The Unseen History of International Law (Oxford University Press, 2025) locates and describes almost one thousand surviving copies of the first nine editions of Hugo Grotius' De iure belli ac pacis (IBP) published between 1625 and 1650. Meticulously reconstructing the publishing history of these first nine editions and cataloguing copies across hundreds of collections, The Unseen History provides fundamental data for reconstructing the impact of IBP across time and space. The authors, Dr. Mark Somos, Dr. Matthew Cleary, Dr. Pablo Dufour, Dr. Edward Jones Corredera, and Dr. Emanuele Salerno, also examined annotations that thousands of owners and readers have left in IBP copies over four centuries, offering original insights into the development of international law.Grotius' De iure belli ac pacis has been commonly regarded as the foundation of modern international law since its first appearance in 1625. Most major international law scholars have engaged with IBP, often owning and richly annotating their own copies. At key moments - including the demise of the Holy Roman Empire, the fall of Napoleon, and the end of both world wars - IBP was reissued with new commentaries by multinational projects devoted to restarting the international order. Despite the enormous literature on IBP's reception and influence, we cannot fully understand its impact without uncovering the history of IBP as a physical object, with hundreds of thousands of unpublished annotations arguing or agreeing with the text, updating and adapting its contents.Approaching Grotius' seminal work as a physical vehicle of the author's, the publishers', owners', and readers' engagement, The Unseen History radically expands and revises our understanding not only of IBP, but also of the academic discipline and lived practice of modern international law over the last four centuries. In addition to delving into the first nine editions' printing history, descriptive bibliography, and both Grotius' and the publishers' marketing and donation strategies, the book explores Grotius' subsequent impact on pro-slavery and abolitionist litigation as a case study of how the census' original findings can be applied to specific areas of reception. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

“Do what I say or I'll kill you and be gone in the dark”It's just before 6:30 AM on October 5th, 1976 when young mother Jane Carson is blindfolded and attacked with her 3YO son in the house. She is victim #5.2 months later, 15 YO Kris Pedretti stops playing piano, thinking she heard something in the other room, despite being alone in her house.

The shield of faith serves as a crucial instrument in our spiritual armamentarium, offering protection against the adversities and temptations we encounter in life. In this discourse, we delve into the significance of faith as a means to extinguish the flaming darts of disbelief, doubt, and despair that the enemy seeks to launch at us. Our exploration is anchored in the biblical tenet found in Ephesians 6:16, which emphasizes the necessity of faith in all circumstances to fortify our resilience against such assaults. We reflect on how faith not only safeguards our spiritual well-being but also cultivates endurance and strength over time, thereby enabling us to navigate life's challenges with greater assurance. As we consider practical applications, we invite our listeners to contemplate one promise or truth about God that can serve as a shield for them in the coming week, reinforcing the idea that our faith is both a defensive and empowering force in our spiritual journey.Takeaways: The shield of faith serves as a crucial defense mechanism against various spiritual attacks that one may encounter in life. Faith is not merely an abstract concept; it embodies a profound confidence in God's unwavering promises and character. Regularly rehearsing God's past faithfulness strengthens our current resolve and enhances our spiritual resilience against doubt. Community and accountability among believers are essential for maintaining a robust shield of faith in the face of life's challenges.

When a family moves into a new home, they quickly realize they aren't alone. It starts with the sound of footsteps upstairs when no one else is home, the laughter of a child echoing through the empty halls. But when they check, there's no one there. At first, they try to brush it off as the creaking of an old house, but soon the activity becomes impossible to ignore. The ghostly child doesn't just want to play; it wants something more. This episode dives into the eerie and unsettling experiences of a family haunted by a child spirit that refuses to stay unseen. Doors slam, toys move on their own, and the presence grows stronger every day. Is it a playful spirit, or is there something darker lurking beneath the surface? And why does the child remain unseen, always just out of sight?

Every day, we face a battle most people never see—the battle within. In this message, The Unseen Battle, discover how the enemy builds strongholds in our minds and how God's Word gives us the power to demolish them and walk in victory.
As we honor fathers in this message, it's the perfect opportunity to investigate the attributes of our heavenly Father. The attribute that causes confusion and even doubt is that He is in fact unseen.

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 314: Luke Cormack For cinematographer Luke Cormack, filming the National Geographic series David Blaine: Do Not Attempt was an exercise in capturing the raw, unscripted moments of human connection and extraordinary feats. Luke leaned into his experience as a wildlife documentarian to patiently wait for the perfect, instinctual moments to unfold. The goal was not to capture polished performances, but the raw, visceral reactions from Blaine and the people he encountered on his global journey. “David's not an actor or a host. We would have to create these 'biospheres of spontaneity.' So he can just get in there and be his most genuine self without you ever saying, 'Oh, stop, David. Can you do that again?' That just doesn't work at all,” says Luke. “You have to constantly be looking for those little pieces of magic and those pieces of magic are usually when you're setting something up or your eye isn't on the ball.” David Blaine: Do Not Attempt is not about magic, but about finding people in cultures around the world who perform real, extraordinary feats that look like magic. The series follows Blaine as he travels to nine countries, including Brazil, India, and Japan, and learns about their unique skills, lifting the veil behind those tricks. For the documentary crew, capturing this "magic" required a dedication to true verité techniques. This involved location scouting to determine optimal camera placements that would feel both intimate and unobtrusive. The producers also prepared the local performers for Blaine's arrival, allowing for natural, unscripted interactions. Luke's strategy often involved a subtle deception. He would keep the cameras rolling long after a scene appeared to have wrapped, patiently waiting for the "in-between moments" that often yielded the most candid footage. “That true verité, I feel like that's where we got all our nuggets. We'd often put everyone at ease as you actually pretend to stop filming,” he says. “When everyone thinks you've got the scene, you just keep rolling. And you kind of look away from the viewfinder a little bit, maybe relax your body language, and that's usually when he'll turn around and say something amazing.” This philosophy of patient observation required the camera crew to be constantly vigilant, nimble, and able to blend into the background. The use of lower-profile Ronin 4D cameras was key to allowing the crew to navigate large crowds without drawing attention. To elevate the visual storytelling, Luke chose high-end prime and zoom lenses. He hired special crews for high-stakes sequences, such as filming with sharks underwater in South Africa or skydiving in the Arctic Circle. The crew's collaboration was often wordless, staying present and dedicated to capturing authentic interactions. They relied almost exclusively on natural light, repositioning themselves to find the most flattering illumination rather than directing the subjects. The unpredictable nature of Blaine's performances in public spaces also meant that the crew had to be prepared for anything. “We traveled to nine different countries and a lot of it is crowd control,” Luke explains. “Like once you blow someone's mind and they're standing there with a group of 10, it becomes a group of 50 very quickly. And then you're trying to get your shots and get in there and try and get the magic of it. But the whole time, you still have to keep your head on a swivel, have an exit strategy, realize that crowds can get dangerous really quickly, depending on where you are.” This constant state of readiness, combined with a commitment to capturing authentic, unrehearsed moments, allowed Luke and his team to document the genuine wonder, fear, and awe that defines David Blaine: Do Not Attempt.

Teachhoops.com In today's highly competitive world, whether it's in sports, business, politics, or even personal relationships, there's an increasingly pervasive belief that the only thing that matters is victory. This isn't just about striving for excellence; it's about the "win at all costs" mentality – a philosophy that often justifies any means to achieve the desired outcome, regardless of the ethical, moral, or human toll. But what exactly does this mindset entail, and what are its true ramifications? This episode delves deep into the origins and manifestations of the win at all costs mentality. We'll explore how it's fostered in various environments, from youth sports where championship trophies become the sole measure of success, to cutthroat corporate cultures where quarterly profits overshadow employee well-being and ethical conduct. We'll examine the psychological underpinnings that drive individuals and groups to adopt this extreme approach, looking at factors like ego, insecurity, fear of failure, and the societal pressures that often equate winning with worth. Crucially, we'll unpack the profound and often devastating consequences of this relentless pursuit of victory. Beyond the immediate triumph, what are the long-term impacts on integrity, trust, mental health, and the very fabric of relationships and communities? We'll discuss how a win at all costs approach can lead to burnout, unethical behavior, a corrosive work environment, and ultimately, a hollow victory that leaves a trail of damage. Join us as we challenge the conventional wisdom that winning is everything and instead, explore the hidden price tag of a mentality that prioritizes outcome above all else.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Father and Joe," Joe Rockey and Father Boniface invite listeners to embark on a profound exploration of the indispensable role the Church has played in shaping our modern world. The episode begins with Joe recounting a vivid mental image of the crucifixion as a catalyst for the birth of the Church, underscoring the intimate relationship between Jesus and Mary at that pivotal moment. This visualization leads to a broader introspection about the myriad aspects of life we often take for granted, much like electricity during a power outage.Father Boniface expands on this notion, emphasizing how the Church has been the bedrock of countless modern advancements. Contrary to popular belief, the Church's influence extends well beyond spiritual guidance to include nurturing the growth of science, art, education, healthcare, and even the very foundations of Western civilization. From Galileo and Kepler to the architectural marvels that dot our urban landscapes, the Church's contributions are immeasurable.The conversation takes a practical turn, as Father Boniface and Joe challenge listeners to imagine a world without these contributions—a world where essential moral frameworks, scientific inquiry, and artistic endeavors never reached their full potential. The Church's historical commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity and compassion has provided humanity with tools to face the future with hope and innovation.Listeners are encouraged to appreciate the profound interconnectedness of human endeavor and divine inspiration. This episode highlights the importance of recognizing and nurturing the unique talents each of us brings to the table, advancing the Church's mission in diverse, meaningful ways. As we make use of our gifts to benefit others, we build on a legacy of faith-driven achievements that have sculpted both past and present.Join Joe and Father Boniface in this enriching dialogue that calls upon each of us to rediscover the foundations of our faith, recognize the Church's unseen influence in our lives, and aspire to contribute to its enduring mission. Together, let's engage with our spirituality, cultivate gratitude for our shared history, and step into our roles as active participants in a community bound by love, purpose, and faith.Tags:Faith, Church, Spirituality, Community, Purpose, Gratitude, Science and Faith, Historical Influence, Modern Civilization, Intellectual Curiosity, Artistic Contribution, Healthcare, Education, Western Civilization, Modern Science, Personal Talents, Contribution, Spiritual Direction, Divine Inspiration, Legacy, Innovation, Moral Frameworks, Global Influence, Relationship with God, Individual Calling, Society, Dependence, Forward-Looking, Creativity, Compassion, Hope, God, Love, Western Values, Empowerment, Fellowship, Historical Accounts, Contentment, Fulfillment, Meaningful Service, Connection, Modern Church.Hashtags:#FaithJourney, #RediscoverChurch, #SpiritualDirection, #GratitudeInFaith, #ChurchContributions, #HistoryOfScience, #FaithAndScience, #CulturalHeritage, #SpiritualGrowth, #PurposefulLiving, #CommunityInFaith, #WesternCivilization, #ArtAndFaith, #DivineInspiration, #RoleOfChurch, #MoralValues, #IntellectualCuriosity, #SpiritualAwakening, #EducationalImpact, #HealthcareLegacy, #HumanConnection, #ChurchAndModernity, #GlobalFaith, #RelationshipWithGod, #ChurchInfluence, #SpiritualLegacy, #CreativityAndFaith, #CompassionateLiving, #ModernGod, #EmpowermentThroughFaith, #LegacyOfTheChurch, #FellowshipTogether, #HistoricalInfluence, #GodAndCulture, #ContentmentInFaith, #ServingWithLove, #CulturalImpact, #BuildingTheFuture, #FaithAndHope.
In this revelatory episode of What's My Thesis?, host Javier Proenza welcomes Chinese-Canadian visual artist Ketty Haolin Zhang for a candid and multifaceted conversation that traverses personal narrative, cultural identity, and the shifting landscapes of the art world. Born in northeastern China and currently based in Vancouver, Chang unpacks the nuances of the “1.5 generation” immigrant experience—a term that resonates deeply in her practice and daily life. Her formative transition from a fifth-tier city in China to cosmopolitan Vancouver was less a relocation and more a system reboot, an abrupt recalibration that continues to echo through her work and worldview. Throughout the discussion, Zhang thoughtfully reflects on her evolution from data analyst at an investment firm to full-time artist, and the calculated risks that led her to embrace painting and mixed media sculpture. Her visual language avoids overt cultural symbolism, instead delving into the atmospheric and emotional terrain of liminal spaces—transitory zones where belonging and alienation coexist in quiet tension. Drawing inspiration from personal snapshots and the intimate memories of others, her work invites viewers to project themselves into the scene, resisting the fixed narratives often expected from artists of diasporic backgrounds. This episode also interrogates the art world's complicated relationship with capitalism, institutional critique, and the silent stigma around commercial ambition. Zhang speaks with clarity about reconciling her creative integrity with the pragmatic need for sustainability, demystifying her approach to grants, residencies, and the economics of art-making in Canada. Together, Zhang and Proenza explore how geography shapes artistic ecosystems—juxtaposing Vancouver's scaled-down, transit-friendly gallery network with the sprawl and ambition of Los Angeles and the high-octane density of New York City. Chang offers a rare, introspective glimpse into the psychology of multilingualism and code-switching, the visceral dissonance of returning to a changed homeland, and the performative nature of self-presentation in the social media age. Themes Covered: The “1.5 generation” identity and its impact on cultural integration Liminality and the aesthetics of in-betweenness Transitioning from a data-driven corporate role to full-time artist Navigating Canada's grant-based art system Cultural tokenization, commercial validation, and institutional critique MFA programs and professionalization across North America Immigrant family expectations and artistic self-determination Choosing between L.A. and New York as an emerging artist Notable Quote: “It is joy to be hidden and disaster not to be found.” – Donald Winnicott, via Ketty Haolin Zhang —
She is Brazil's most compelling defender of Black feminism. Philosopher, writer and professor Djamila Ribeiro has been instrumental in calling out structural racism and pushing for societal change, be it in publishing or in politics. Ribeiro joins us to talk about her deeply personal book "Letters to my grandmother", which recounts her own experience as a young woman and reflects upon the socio-political context that her mother and grandmother were navigating in 20th-century Brazil. Ribeiro has used her public platform to boost feminist and anti-racist campaigns, discussing the "speaking place" that each person inhabits, a key concept in her best-selling text "Where We stand", in which she explains why multiple identities inform individual perspectives.
www.aihoopscoach.com Teachhoops.com While raw talent and physical prowess are undeniable components of athletic success, what truly distinguishes champions is an often-unseen mental and emotional architecture. Winners are wired differently not just in their muscles, but in their minds. They possess an extraordinary blend of unwavering self-belief, even in the face of adversity, and an insatiable hunger for improvement that transcends mere competition. This manifests as an innate ability to maintain focus amidst chaos, to convert setbacks into fuel for growth, and to consistently push past perceived limits. They view challenges not as roadblocks, but as opportunities to prove their mettle, constantly striving to master their craft and refine their approach, driven by an intrinsic motivation that goes far beyond external rewards. This unique mental wiring allows champions to perform under immense pressure, making clutch plays when others falter. Their resilience is not simply about bouncing back from a loss; it's about actively learning from every mistake, internalizing feedback, and adapting with a relentless pursuit of perfection. They cultivate a "growth mindset," believing that their abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work, rather than being fixed. This translates into a meticulous attention to detail, a disciplined approach to preparation, and a willingness to embrace discomfort in the pursuit of their goals. Ultimately, winners are not just competing against opponents; they are constantly challenging and overcoming their own limitations, driven by an internal compass that points unequivocally towards greatness.

Throughout our discourse, we reflect on the transformative power of peace in our lives, highlighting that true peace is rooted in our relationship with God and manifests in our interactions with others. By fostering an understanding of our foundational peace with God, we explore how this assurance empowers us to navigate the complexities of life with confidence and grace. Thus, we invite listeners to consider where they most need to stand in peace and how they might extend that peace to others in their communities.Takeaways: The podcast highlights the importance of spiritual preparedness, likening the shoes of peace to essential footwear that allows one to navigate life's challenges effectively.
