From private beach setups and partnerships with Volvo for guest transportation to menus inspired by local farm stands, Sarah is redefining what “full-service” means in the Hamptons.In this episode, Sarah and I talk about everything from the renaissance of The Colony Hotel and now The Hedges under her and her husband's ownership, to all of her favorite spots in and around East Hampton. Our conversation covers all of Sarah's favorite restaurants, spots for families, places to shop, amazing events in the area in the summer and fall and all of the incredible outdoor activities available from visiting one of the most beautiful beaches in America - Main Beach in East Hampton - to getting paddle board lessons from an adorable instructor!

George Halford sits down with Cookeville native Lisa Carver, the force behind Highways and Hedges, a grassroots outreach making a real impact in the local homeless community. After a motorcycle accident left her with a brain injury and ended her career as a hairdresser, Lisa began assembling “blessing bags” with her children and handing them out to those in need. Known for serving hot soup from the back of her car during the cold months, she gained the trust of the homeless community and partnered with I AM Worship Church to expand her efforts. Through that trust, Highways and Hedges has been invited to collaborate with other organizations, and today their growing vision includes a shower trailer, laundry station, kitchen for hot meals, means of transportation, and a recovery program rooted in faith. Lisa's journey is a powerful example of how resilience and purpose can transform both lives and communities. Listen To The Local Matters Podcast Today! News Talk 94.1
More than 1,000 Palestinians seeking food have been killed by Israeli forces in just the last few months, according to the United Nations. Israel's blockade on aid, ongoing bombardment, and the dismantling of independent relief efforts have pushed Gaza to the brink of mass famine. At least 600,000 people are suffering from severe malnutrition, and aid groups warn of a manufactured humanitarian catastrophe.“It's not about the distribution of food, it's not about humanitarian aid. It's about creating — luring Palestinians who are desperate into the south, putting them into a closed military zone,” says Chris Hedges, the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and former Middle East bureau chief for the New York Times.This week on The Intercept Briefing, host Jordan Uhl speaks with Hedges about how we got here and what's at stake. Hedges spent seven years covering the conflict between Israel and the Palestine, much of that time in Gaza. He's the author of 14 books, the most recent being “The Greatest Evil Is War” and “A Genocide Foretold.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

Landowners in Clare could soon be allowed to cut roadside hedges all year round. The local authority is set to approach the Department of the Environment to see if this county's roadside vegetation can be exempted from the Wildlife Act. Under the legislation, hedges can only be cut between September and February to avoid disturbance to nesting birds. Kilmurry Fianna Fáil Councillor Alan O'Callaghan however says it's posing a serious road safety issue.
THE MERMAID, 105min., USA Directed by Soudabeh Moradian A mysterious girl is saved from drowning by a fragmented family living in a desolate beach house. Her strange relationship with them becomes intimate and complex until everything reaches to a point of no return. https://www.instagram.com/themermaidmovie/ Get to know the filmmaker: What motivated you to make this film? The Mermaid was born out of a personal urgency to explore the psychological aftermath of trauma—particularly when it's silenced or dismissed. I wanted to create a space for a character who's constantly gaslit, both by her inner world and the people around her, and to blur the line between dream and reality. It's a reflection on emotional abuse, xenophobia, and isolation, wrapped in the aesthetics of psychological horror. From the idea to the finished product, how long did it take for you to make this film? It took more than three years from the initial concept to the final cut. Development and writing were fairly quick, but production and especially post-production were long and complicated—partly due to budget constraints and doing so much of the work myself. How would you describe your film in two words!? Hauntingly intimate. What was the biggest obstacle you faced in completing this film? Financing and post-production. I wore multiple hats—writer, director, producer, editor —and managing everything independently while teaching full-time at Syracuse University was incredibly draining. There were moments I truly thought it wouldn't get finished. What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video? It was surreal and deeply moving. Hearing people connect to the emotional undercurrents, even if they interpreted things differently, made me feel like the risks I took paid off.

We're discussing “All the Water in the World” by @eirencaffall!
Summer in 2025 is here - and after one of the sunniest and driest Springs on record, we enter the long days and sultry nights with the garden looking glorious but always looking to the horizon for a little bit of rain to keep things looking green and lush. Herbaceous borders are set to maximum colour, vegetable beds seem to multiply in growth weekly and the gardeners tan is ever present. So enjoy the long summer days, take some time to appreciate time in your garden and join the Talking Heads pair as they continue to look after the spaces they are in charge of, as well as enjoying their gardens at home.Apologies for again this week mentioning the 's'-word (sweat) but it's been foisty throughout the UK, meaning that Lucy and Saul have yet again plenty of weather fodder to get their teeth into. They also discover a design issue with their battery mowers - are their other professional gardeners out there whacking their Hayters on an all-too-frequent basis? Hedges also go under the spotlight - do you cut yours once or twice a year? And we give a shoutout to our Australian listeners in NSW who are experiencing a cyclone bomb with tidal surges, high winds and up to 200mm of rainfall in just a few hours. Hunker down, stay safe and emerge unscathed if you can.LinkedIn link:Saul WalkerInstagram link:Lucy lucychamberlaingardensIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

Carl and Mike share thoughts on Georgia's Sanford Stadium being ranked No. 4 by EA sports as the hardest stadium to play in.
A Clare haulier claims overgrown hedges represent an "ongoing battle" for people in his industry. The Irish Road Haulage Association says the average medium-sized haulier is losing two mirrors a week on their truck fleet at a cost of €1,000 due to damage caused by hedgerows. A survey of 620 professional heavy goods vehicle drivers conducted last year by the RSA found 75% reported overgrown vegetation to be challenging while driving. Ennis-based former IRHA President Eugene Drennan insists inadequate maintenance can pose serious road safety risk.
PJ hears that untrimmed hedges are costing truckers €1,000 a week in mirrors alone from Ger Hyland of the IRHA Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ian McMillan's guests celebrate hedges, with poetry from Alison Brackenbury and Testament, singing from Sam Lee, Michael Symmons Roberts explores a poem with a nightingale at its centre, and hedgelayer Paul Lamb records himself walking a hedgerow that's rich in wildlife.This hedge-themed special features a haunted hedge from poet Alison Brackenbury, part of the anthology 'Lincolnshire Folk Tales Reimagined' (ed, Anna Milon and Rory Waterman). Alison's hedge started off life as a talking hedge in her non-fiction book 'Village' which is all about her childhood home in Lincolnshire (to be published online in July)Testament, a world record-breaking beatboxer, rapper and poet, performs a poem called 'The Lig', based on his experiences observing three generations of farmer hedge-layers in Cumbria. Testament is a member of the Hot Poets Collective which explores climate change through spoken word poetry.Sam Lee's most recent album is 'Songdreaming' - and he sings, not only in front of human audiences, but also with and alongside nightingales. Sam takes musicians and small groups of people into woodland for annual 'Singing With Nightingales' events - events which celebrate this vulnerable bird and our creative connection with it. Sam sings 'Bushes and Briars' on the show and explores the poetry of 19th century poet John Clare.Poet and professor Michael Symmons Roberts chooses a 'neon line' for The Verb's ongoing series about stand-out lines in poems . His choice is from a poem that features a 'deconstructed hedge' and a singing blackbird. Michael listened carefully to the blackbirds in his garden whilst writing his new book 'Quartet for the End of Time: On Music, Grief and Birdsong', - inspired by his relationship with the music of the composer Olivier Messaien.Ian also dips in and out of a very long hedge with the help of Paul Lamb, a hedge-layer who walks the Gower Peninsula to bring us hedge language. Paul's new memoir is called 'Of Thorn and Briar - A Year with the West Country Hedgelayer'
Mark McCarron thinks the Fed has room to be more supportive of this economy, but tariffs are putting them “on pause.” He thinks we “could be at the bottom of this cycle,” but says dangers like the tax bill still remain. He's diversifying into gold and infrastructure, citing them as hedges against unexpected inflation. He also shares why he's cautious around small caps and the Mag 7.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Oral health care for children is required in every state under Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Plan. But dental coverage for adults is optional. And while nearly every state provides some level of coverage for adults, what is covered and who is covered varies widely from state to state and even within states.Our first guest on this podcast is Ian Hedges, the director of Medicaid and Medicare program policy for the American Dental Association. Hedges explained how oral health care affects overall health and why different levels of coverage for adults under Medicaid can lead to higher costs later on for health complications that arise from neglected oral health issues. One study found that untreated oral health conditions can lead to health complications that cost the U.S. about $45 billion each year in lost productivity.Our other guests are Sen. Evan Vickers, a Republican of Utah, and Sen. Malcom Augustine, a Democrat from Maryland. Senators Vickers and Augustine explained how their states have approached broadening coverage for adults covered by Medicaid, the challenge in assembling a group of providers that will accept Medicaid reimbursement and some of the particular problems in providing care to those with low incomes and those living in rural areas.ResourcesMedicaid Adult Dental Benefits Are on the Move in 2024, CareQuestVariation in Use of Dental Services by Children and Adults Enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, KFF
The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's 3-1 week that featured a series win over Gonzaga and a dominant midweek win over Long Beach State. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action, looking at the positives of the Trojans improving to 26-14 with an 11-7 mark in Big Ten play and a fourth-place spot in the standings behind only two ranked teams and Iowa. They discuss the play of Adrian Lopez powering the offense all weekend against the Zags as well as Ethan Hedges seeming to get back on track after a rough spell. Shotgun and Kasey also look at how the Trojans were able to bounce back after dropping the opener against Gonzaga with some uncharacteristically sloppy play thanks to the bullpen stepping up throughout the week. The podcasters also look at three negatives, including Kevin Takeuchi reinjuring his left shoulder during Tuesday's win at Long Beach and the RPI hit that one poor game can have as the Trojans start looking toward the postseason. After a break, USC head coach Andy Stankiewicz then joins the show to talk about how the Big Ten schedule, including the back-and-forth travel, has treated his team and how his players have handled and adjusted to the differences and challenges. He also discusses how the Trojans have tried to deal with a spate of injuries with multiple pitchers lost for the season as well as Takeuchi's shoulder issues. Stankiewicz then takes the listener through some strategic thought processes of how he tries to use late-inning opportunities in blowout games as well as how he handles his star players being in a funk, especially later in the season. The Trojan head man chats about Hedges, Lopez, Bryce Martin-Grudzielanek, Caden Hunter, Andrew Johnson, Jack Basseer and others. Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans stand after winning another series and taking a peek at where the Trojans could wind up in the postseason. The podcast then previews USC's upcoming week of action with the Trojans heading to Minneapolis to take on an injury-riddled Minnesota team that continues to battle despite 11 significant injuries, including five of the season-ending variety.

United Airlines (UAL) reports earnings after the bell today, and all eyes are on whether the airline can turn a profit despite industry headwinds. Spencer Hakimian says it all comes down to whether United hedged its oil and jet fuel costs effectively, while Michael Boyd is more optimistic, citing the airline's plans for international growth. But with Canadian and European travel to the U.S. down significantly, will domestic consumers be enough to prop up the industry?======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's 4-0 week that featured a midweek win over San Diego State and the Trojans' first Big Ten series sweep after they rallied late in back-to-back games to finish off Ohio State. That included being down to their final out Sunday before Brayden Dowd hit a game-tying home run, and USC won on a Dean Carpentier walk-off. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action, looking at the positives of the Trojans improving to 20-11 with a 9-6 mark in the Big Ten with their comeback ability and the clutch gene of Dowd. The podcasters also look at three negatives on each side, including the continued black hole that is USC's Sunday starting pitching role. USC two-way star Ethan Hedges then joins the show to talk about his transition to being on the mound this season after being exclusively a hitter his first two seasons with the Trojans. He discusses how he's been able to unlock his power potential, hitting 11 home runs already this season after having just four combined in his first two seasons. Hedges also chats about the 'one-more-run' mentality the Trojans have this season and how that's helped them come from behind in multiple games this season. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at where the Trojans stand after winning another conference series, including multiple players ranking amongst the Big Ten and national leaders. The podcast then previews USC's upcoming week of action, beginning with a midweek matchup at their home away from home as the Trojans will be the road team against Loyola Marymount at Page Stadium where USC has been playing its midweek 'home' games. The Trojans then head to Penn State to take on the Nittany Lions in a battle of two teams tied for fifth in the Big Ten standings.

Glenn Greenwald recently responded to an article by Chris Hedges titled “The Purge of the Deep State and the Road to Dictatorship” describing Donald Trump's dismantling of longstanding government institutions as a portent of worse to come. Greenwald disagreed with Hedges' assessment, crediting Trump with positive steps like defunding USAID and firing thousands of civilian employees at the Pentagon. Hedges returns to The Jimmy Dore Show to address Greenwald's response and explain what Glenn got wrong. Plus segments on whether Trump and Elon Musk's dramatic efforts to curb government spending will forestall economic collapse and the recent AI-generated “Gaza Riviera” video Trump posted to Truth Social. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Ed Dowd and Paul Stone.

Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains why U.S. stocks took a hit that is likely to sustain through the first half of 2025.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I'll be discussing tariffs, recent developments in AI and what it means for stocks.It's Monday, Feb 3rd at 11:30am in New York. So, let's get after it.While 2024 was a strong year for many stocks, it was mostly a second half story. With recession fears peaking last summer and a Fed that remained on hold due to still elevated inflation, markets were essentially flat year-to-date in early August.But then everything changed. The Fed surprised markets with a 50 basis points cut to show its commitment to keeping the economy out of recession. This was followed by better labor data and two more 25 basis points cuts from the Fed. Investors took this as a green light to add more equity to portfolios—the riskier the better. It also became clear to markets and many observers that President Trump was likely going to win the election, with a rising chance of a Republican sweep in Congress. Given the more pro-growth agenda proposed by candidate Trump and his track record during his first term as President, he made investors even more bullish. Finally, given all the concern about a hung election, the fact that we got such definitive results on election night only added fuel to the equation. Hedges were swiftly removed and even reversed to long positions as both asset managers and retail investors chased performance for fear of falling behind, or missing out. In October, I suggested the S&P 500 would likely trade to 6100 on a clean election outcome. After promptly hitting that level in early December, stocks had a very weak month to finish the year with deteriorating breadth. The S&P 500 started the year soft before rallying sharply into inauguration day, essentially re-testing that 6100 level once again. The difference this time is that the re-test occurred on much lower breadth with high quality resuming its leadership role. Tariffs were always on the agenda, as was immigration enforcement, both of which are growth negative in the short-term.In my view, investors simply got complacent about these risks and are now dealing with them in real time. This also fits with our view that the first half of the year was likely to be tougher for stocks as equity negative policies would be implemented immediately before the equity positive policies like de-regulation, tax extensions and reduced government spending had time to play out in the form of less crowding out and lower interest rates. At the Index level, I expect the S&P 500 to trade in a range between 5500 to 6100 for the next 3 to 6 months, with our fourth quarter price target at 6500 remaining intact. Since we have been expecting tariffs to be implemented, this realization only furthers our preference for consumer services over goods. It also supports our preference for financials and other domestically geared businesses that have limited currency or trade exposures. In addition to rising political uncertainty, we also saw the release of DeepSeek's latest AI chat bot last week. This added another level of uncertainty for investors that could have lasting implications at both the stock and index level given the importance of this investment theme. On one hand it could also accelerate the adoption of AI technologies if it truly lowers the cost – but many portfolios will need to adjust for this shift if that's the case. We think it further supports our ongoing preference for software and media over semiconductors. Thanks for listening. If you enjoy the podcast, leave us a review wherever you listen, and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.
