„Wir wollen Motoren sein – wie fast alle Baugemeinschaften.“ Das sagt Stadtplaner Daniel Luchterhandt. Mit ihm habe ich beim Hamburger Immobilienkongress über das Beehive gesprochen: In der HafenCity gelegen, 27 Wohn- und zwölf Gewerbeeinheiten, 24 davon in Eigentümerhand. Dazu ein Kreativgeschoss, Flex-Räume, Gästewohnungen, eine Lounge, das Gewächshaus auf dem Dach, das als die goldene Haube verstanden wird. Nach zehn Jahren konnte die Baugemeinschaft einziehen, seitdem ist noch viel zu tun. „Es ist ein Knochenjob, es ist ein harter Weg, den man sich antun will“, sagt Daniel Luchterhandt vom büro luchterhandt & partner. Im März räumten die Halbinsulaner – so nennen sie sich - einen MIPIM-Award ab. Als einer der Köpfe dieser Gemeinschaft erzählt er über den Prozess und das Innenleben. Dabei tauchen Worte auf wie Tuchfühlung, es geht um die Vereinbarkeit von Wohnen und Arbeiten, den dezidierten Auswahlprozess und damit um die Gretchen-Frage: Wie halte ich es mit Gemeinschaft? Wir sprechen über Einzelvergaben, um die Kostenstruktur zu halten, das auch eine Insolvenz vorkommen kann, über das Konklave der Wohnungsvergabe, den Verlust der Haarfarbe oder des Produktes selbst und den Schwiegermutter-Standard. Ja, tatsächlich, auch den gibt es. Daniel Luchterhandt erklärt seine Erkenntnis, warum man besser nicht mit Familie und Freunden zusammenlebt: Nur weil man sich gut verstehe, bedeute dies noch lange nicht, dass man auch gut zusammenwohne. Ein selten beleuchtetes Thema, anhand eines prämierten Projektes sehr detailliert erzählt.

What would you say to a $40,000 pay rise? Yes please? If you're the chief executive of Environment Canterbury regional council, you would. It's been revealed that in the last financial year, Stefanie Rixecker's pay increased by 9.3 %, upping her salary by $40,000 to just under $480,000, making her the highest-paid regional council boss in the country. And this wasn't one of those decisions by the Independent Remuneration Authority, which sets the pay levels for politicians, which also gives politicians the excuse of saying they have no control over what they get paid. This decision was made by the elected council members. An increase that the chair of ECAN, Craig Pauling, is busy defending. He says the $40,000 pay increase is "appropriate and deserved". Appropriate and deserved because the chief executive is a respected leader and is running ECAN during a tricky time for local government. Craig Pauling says: “It is important to our council that we have a high-performing and respected chief executive at the helm, during this significant time of change for local government.” Time of change alright. Which is what the Government has been telling councils. And I imagine the noise from Wellington will get even louder when news of this pay increase makes it to the Beehive. The chair of the council can say all he likes about the chief executive being brilliant at her job and how she has a lot on her plate and how it's her job to lead ECAN through change and all that, but what he is missing, and what every one of those councillors who voted for this unfathomable pay increase is missing, is that a pay increase of just under 10% is la-la land stuff. On several fronts. The most obvious is what a $40,000 pay increase for the chief executive of a regional council looks like to the rest of us. Those of us who pay rates to ECAN. The other reason why this move is so wrong right now is because it looks to me like ECAN is explicitly ignoring the noises coming from the Government about local councils needing to cut their cloth. How can you have these kinds of expectations coming at you —as well as the likes of regional development minister Shane Jones declaring war on regional councils— yet still give your chief executive a huge pay increase? It shows just how out of touch our regional councillors are. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Check out my newsletter at ⁠⁠https://TKOPOD.com⁠⁠ and join my new community at ⁠⁠https://TKOwners.com⁠⁠━I walk you through exactly how I validate an online business idea before I ever launch it, using real data from places that actually matter. I use GummySearch, Reddit, and review sites like Captera, G2, GetApp, and TrustRadius to pull the true pain points and must haves for QuickBooks and Xero, then I run the same prompt across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Manus to cluster the findings. The big three complaints are unreliable bank feeds, constant pricing increases, and poor customer support, while the must haves are clean invoicing, simple reconciliation, and easy cloud access with multi user collaboration. To show how fast you can move, I spin up a Carrd landing page on LazyBooks.com, wire it to Beehive for email capture, and put a simple message out for small businesses that hate bookkeeping.

I want you to investigate public review sites (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, and similar) and extract real user pain points and “can't-live-without” features for QuickBooks (Online + Desktop) and Xero.Steps:1. Scrape reviews across multiple platforms (Capterra, G2, GetApp, TrustRadius, Reddit, app store reviews if available).2. Collect at least 200+ recent reviews (past 2 years).3. Parse and cluster feedback into two categories: - *Pain points* (things users hate, churn reasons, frustrations, broken features, cost complaints). - *Must-haves* (the specific features or outcomes users rave about and would never give up).4. For each cluster, include: - Direct sample quotes from real users (keep them short). - Frequency (# of times it appeared across reviews). - Sentiment strength (light annoyance → dealbreaker).5. Summarize into a ranked list: - Top 10 pain points across both platforms. - Top 10 must-have features across both platforms.6. Call out any hidden gems — recurring insights from smaller groups that big competitors might be missing (ex: bank-feed stability, reconciliations, multi-currency, customer support).7. Deliver a final “opportunity map” — 3–5 areas where a slimmed-down competitor could wedge in, based on high-frustration/low-satisfaction pain points paired with still-high demand for core features.Output format:- Clear tables (Pain Points, Must-Haves).- Ranked lists with numbers.- A concise final summary with the best 3–5 wedge opportunities.Make sure all insights are backed with real review data, not generic summaries.At the end of your report give me your unfiltered unbiased take on whether or not I should start this business.

The Country’s political correspondent wraps up another busy week in the Beehive. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New documents have shed more light on who knew what about a police complaint laid against the disgraced Beehive press secretary Michael Forbes last year. Mr Forbes quit his job in the Prime Minister's office in June, after revelations he had covertly recorded audio of multiple sessions with sex workers. Correspondence released to RNZ today shows an email was sent to police bosses on the day of the complaint - but then quickly recalled. Acting political editor Craig McCulloch spoke to Lisa Owen.

I'm happy to report to you that it looks like some of us want to play the old 'should Luxon be rolled' game. In the wake of the not-so-great polls that came out yesterday, there is a column by Andrea Vance - who I am name-checking because she's good and credible, and not just some junior reporter with an opinion. In her column, she predicts that Luxon is in trouble, that his caucus is getting impatient, that speculation about his leadership has reached fever pitch - and that if it doesn't improve, she is not sure that he's going to be the one leading the National Party at election time this time next year. Now, if this is really what National MPs are considering, they should ditch that idea immediately because Luxon's not their problem. I mean, he is a problem. There's no debate that with personal popularity sitting at about 20 percent, he is a drag on the National Party - but he is not their actual problem. Their actual problem is that the economy is stuffed and that they haven't yet figured out what to do to fix it, even though they've had 18 months. And it really doesn't matter who the leader is, whether it's Nicola or Chris Bishop, or Erica, or Mark Mitchell or Golden Balls, it doesn't matter. They still will not have a plan for the economy. Now, if they're worried about their polling right now, they should try playing the game of musical leadership chairs and see what happens to their polling then, because they're still not going to have a plan for the economy - but then they'll also have voters feeling like it's a shambles up the top in the Beehive and not sure what's going on there. Yes, they have a problem and yes, you can see it in the polls. So fix it. Come up with a solution. Come up with a credible plan for fixing the economy now and into the future. That is where the Nats should be directing their energy, not into undermining Chris Luxon. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cost of living and the economy remains top of the agenda for National. Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s already touting his leadership as one that’s a “clear choice” for New Zealanders at next year’s election, saying the government “inherited a mess and sorting it out”. However, commentators have been quick to out the issues facing National ahead of the campaign – writing that Luxon is “getting worried” and that National is in a “mess”. So, as the battle lines start getting drawn in the Beehive, what’s ahead of politicians? Today on The Front Page, outgoing Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls joins us to discuss the past week in politics, and what could lie ahead. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

From mortgaging his house for a used “bug truck” to commanding Ohio's slickest 10,000-sq-ft “Beehive” HQ, Jason Carpenter has turned Environmental Pest Management into the Midwest's apartment-pest juggernaut—servicing 1 million+ units with a patented data platform (“Pest Genius”) and a 3,000-page digital playbook that lets the business run while he's on the back nine. Sit in with the Blue-Collar Twins as Jason lays out: Door-Knock Origins → $350 K Contract – how a single 50-unit bed-bug job snowballed into a $300 K+ recurring deal and rewired his focus from homes to high-density housing.Pest Genius – the in-house software (and patent) that tracks every unit, photo, KPI and health-department audit across millions of square feet.EOS + Family Power – wife Karen (COO), son Brandon (VP) and daughter Kayla (content chief) running weekly scorecard L10s while Jason stays out of the office—unless he's eaten or played 18.Net over Vanity – why a Franco Giannamore valuation wake-up call pushed margins from “meh” to mission-critical and reset his eight-year, $20 M/20 % BHAG.Golf, Barter & Brand – converting country-club barters into 100+ clients and why density beats door-to-door for long-term wealth.Exit Options – succession plans, EBITDA realities and the number that makes walking off the course worth it.

In the heart of Winchester, Virginia, lies a hidden gem—Uncle Beehive's Ice Cream. Established by Ben Rothermel and Katie Sartelle, this artisanal ice cream company brings joy and unique flavors to the local community. Recently, host of The Valley Today, Janet Michael and Justin Kerns from Winchester Frederick County Convention and Visitors Bureau sat down with the duo to uncover their delightful journey. Janet opened the conversation by introducing Uncle Beehive's corporate headquarters as the place where the magic happens. Justin shared his initial encounter with Uncle Beehive, expressing curiosity and excitement at discovering the brand. His curiosity led him to delve into their story further. Ben and Katie shared their origin story. An ice cream maker gifted at their wedding and an inspirational ice cream session at Katie's father's house sparked their passion. With Ben's chemistry background and Katie's business insights, they began experimenting with recipes, and the rest is history. Operating from a commercial kitchen off Jubal Early Drive, the team faced many challenges, from mastering the ice cream-making process to navigating complex health regulations. They sold their initial batches at farmer's markets, gaining a loyal customer base. Their business thrived through the community's support, allowing them to upgrade equipment and expand their flavors. They sourced high-quality, local ingredients to maintain their artisanal standards, with crowd favorites like coffee bourbon chip and lemon pie gaining popularity. Janet and Justin sampled the ice cream and were visibly impressed. They praised the rich flavors and textures, noting how Uncle Beehive's commitment to quality set them apart. Conversations meandered through the logistics of expanding their reach, partnerships with local markets, and community support. Ben and Katie explained that while they didn't operate a traditional ice cream shop, they frequently hosted events, provided pick-up options, and supplied several local retailers, including Pizzoco, Bushel and Peck, Fleur de Lis Cheese Shop, and West Oaks Farm Market. You can order directly by reaching out via their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/unclebeehives  Uncle Beehive's story is more than just making ice cream; it's about community, support, and passion. The duo's commitment to using natural ingredients and engaging with local businesses exemplifies the quality and care behind every scoop. Their dedication to the craft and community reaffirms why supporting local businesses is vital. Uncle Beehive represents more than just ice cream—it's a testament to how small businesses can enrich a community, one delicious scoop at a time.

The Moon and Mars are flirting with danger – they’re sneaking up on the Beehive star cluster, in the constellation Cancer. The cluster doesn’t have much of a “sting,” though – it’s about 600 light-years away. The Beehive contains about a thousand stars, which are maybe 700 million years old – fairly young in astronomical terms. That means the Beehive maintains a mixture of stars of different masses. Its heaviest stars have burned out, leaving only their dead cores. About two-thirds of the remaining stars are red dwarfs – cool, faint embers only a fraction of the mass of the Sun. About a third are similar to the Sun. And about two percent are heavier than the Sun. Because more-massive stars burn through their nuclear fuel more quickly, those stars will expire first. The cluster’s brightest star is Epsilon Cancri. Although it looks like a single point of light, instruments reveal that it consists of at least three stars. All three are more than twice as massive as the Sun, so they’re nearing the end of the prime phase of life. Soon, they’ll puff up to giant proportions. After that, they’ll blow away their outer layers, exposing their dead cores – and the Beehive will lose some of its luster. The Beehive is close to the lower left of the Moon at nightfall, and is an easy target for binoculars. Mars looks like an orange star below the Moon. It’ll slip past the cluster over the next couple of days. Script by Damond Benningfield
