The origins of this carol date to medieval times. The Latin verses were discovered in the mid 1800s by an English minister named John Mason Neale, who translated and wove them together to produce “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.” Neale is also the author of the carol, “Good King Wenceslas,” and the Palm Sunday hymn, “All Glory, Laud, and Honor.” Find out more about this poet, scholar, and director of a home for the elderly.

In this digital age, our online lives have become just as important as our physical ones. With October being Cyber Security Awareness Month (Cyber Month), it’s the perfect time to reflect on our cyber wellness and practice some much-needed self-care. Here are tips to help safeguard your digital well-being.Set boundariesPractice mindful scrolling
When it comes to online content, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Before engaging online, take a moment to reflect. Choose content that uplifts you, and guard your mental energy. And remember to never share sensitive, personal, or financial information online.
Clean up your digital clutter
Organize your digital life by decluttering your email. An organized inbox helps you find the information you need efficiently and easily. Don’t forget to protect your inbox with a unique and strong password to safeguard your sensitive information.
Stay in the know
Knowledge is a great defence against online scams. Test your knowledge of the latest scams, download a cyber security toolkit, learn what your bank won’t ask you online and sign up for the CBA’s fraud prevention newsletter on the CBA cyber safety website.
Back up your files
Backing up your digital files is like having insurance for your physical possessions. Create a regular backup schedule to safeguard your valuable photos and essential documents, protecting them from device failures and ransomware threats.
Talk with friends and family
Trusted friends and family can be invaluable allies in your cyber self-care journey. If you’re uncertain whether a text or email is a scam, don’t hesitate to ask for their help and to talk about cyber security with others.
