The smashing of headstones by vandals at an Auckand chapel have been described as "senseless, stupid and unecessary". Police are investigating the damage at St Stephens Chapel, after receiving a report on Monday evening. Marble headstones have been broken into pieces, while sandstone graves were literally smashed to smithereens. The local community has been left shocked by the damage, which looks like it will cost roughly 35-thousand dollars to repair. Finn Blackwell and Marika Khabazi report.

Editor Susan Ryeland has left her Greek island, her hotel, and her Greek boyfriend Andreas in search of a new life back in England. Freelancing for Causton Books, she's working on the manuscript of a novel, Pund's Last Case, by a young author named Eliot Crace, a continuation of the popular Alan Conway series. Susan is surprised to learn that Eliot is the grandson of legendary children's author Marian Crace, who died some fifteen years ago—murdered, Elliot insists, by poison. As Susan begins to read the manuscript's opening chapters, the skeptical editor is relieved to find that Pund's Last Case is actually very good. Set in the South of France, it revolves around the mysterious death of Lady Margaret Chalfont, who, though mortally ill, is poisoned—perhaps by a member of her own family. But who did it? And why? In the television series, these characters are: Lesley Manville ... Susan Ryeland Tim McMullan ... Atticus Pünd Conleth Hill ... Alan Conway Daniel Mays ... Locke / Chubb Alexandros Logothetis ... Andreas Patakis Matthew Beard ... James Taylor/ James Fraser Michael Maloney ... Charles Clover We know actor Mark Bonnar is in the cast, I'd suspect he's playing Elmer Waysmith.  #whodunnit #whodunit #susanryeland #atticuspund #anthonyhorowitz #murdermystery #clue #booktube

Eric's advice is clear: do it all at once to save yourself from a world of pain later on.Throughout the show, Eric unpacks the various materials that can grace our countertops. He's got the scoop on everything from the classic beauty of marble to the modern durability of quartz. But wait—there's more! He introduces us to the wonders of sintered stone and paper stone, which are shaking up the countertop game.

Marble looks stunning but may not be practical for families with kids due to stains and maintenance. Consider man-made materials like quartz for their durability and stain resistance, especially in busy kitchens. Sintered stone is becoming popular for outdoor kitchens due to its durability against extreme weather conditions. If you're going for a DIY project, materials like paper stone offer a unique aesthetic and are surprisingly manageable. Don't forget to think about the backsplash materials simultaneously when designing your kitchen or bathroom surfaces.

People who live in Inwood know how truly special it is. Manhattan's northernmost neighborhood (aside from Marble Hill) feels like it's outside of the city -- and in some places, even outside of time and space. Unlike the lower Manhattan's flat avenues and organized streets, Inwood varies wildly in elevation and its streets wind up hills and down into valleys.It's a twenty minute walk from the mysterious "Indian caves" to some of the best Dominican food in New York City. You can experience the ghosts of Gilded Age mansions close to New York's last remaining forest. Revolutionary War artifacts sit a few blocks away from vestiges of a 20th century Irish community.In this special on-location episode, Greg Young and producer Kieran Gannon wind their way through the streets of Inwood and through (that's right) thousands of years of history -- from salt marshes to old amusement parks, from ancient arches to Broadway musicals, with ducks and egrets and dogs and beavers making guest appearances along the way.And since we're on the subject -- what IS the deal with Marble Hill? What do you mean, it's a Manhattan neighborhood?Featuring special guests Melissa Kieweit (Dyckman Farmhouse), Cole Thompson (Lost Inwood) and Led Black (Uptown Collective)This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.The Bowery Boys Podcast is proud to be sponsored by FOUNDED BY NYC, celebrating New York City's 400th anniversary in 2025 and the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026.

Tatiana Weston-Webb returns to The Lineup to unpack her journey around the world and celebrate her latest film with the late, great Greg Browning. Recorded in New Jersey fresh off a Mentawais boat trip, Tati reflects on stepping away from full-time competition after two Olympic cycles and rediscovering her love of surfing away from the pressure of the jersey. She speaks candidly about her mindset on and off tour, knowing she is a World Title contender at her best, and the surreal joy of scoring perfect Kandui with her husband. She is later joined by producers Scott Smith and John De Temple to celebrate the premiere of their deeply personal and visually stunning new film with the indelible Greg Browning–A Marble in the Jar. The crew dive into the genesis of the film—a project that began with Greg's vision and passion. With a treasure trove of footage spanning years, the team recounts the wild, creative ride of making the movie, from smashing jars of marbles in Scott's backyard to experimenting with four different intros, all in pursuit of honoring Greg's dream. They reflect on the unguarded, fearless spirit that defined both Greg and Tatiana, and how the bond they shared helped shape the emotional core of the project. As Scott poignantly shares, “Greg knew his time was short, but he was 100% behind it all—he went full director mode.” From Instagram fan questions to lightning-round favorites, Tati closes with a powerful reminder to “focus on the small wins throughout the day–aka–a marble in the jar.” We love you Greg!

Esperanza and Irwin didn't intend for this podcast to go 59 minutes, our longest episode to date. Jerry Torre's fascinating story, as a teenager in his friend Billy's Lazy Point fishing cottage, to his work on the Geddes estate on Lily Pond Lane is riveting. But his years living and working for the Beales at Grey Gardens, his involvement in the Maysles documentary and his personal recollections is at the the heart of this special podcast.

Summer talks about why you must change your internal world to impact your external life. She shares why constant movement and evolution of ourselves are essential to be able to build our dream life. She reminds us that our higher self already exists, we just need to do the work to set them free. KEY TAKEAWAYS The frequency at which we are living and the work we have done internally are directly linked to the life we are currently living. Life is coming from us, not at us. When we fine tune the energy we put out, life becomes easier and moulds to the way we want to live. If we do not work on our inner selves, it will feel like we are having to fight to get what we desire. We have to let go of the old and embrace the new to move forward, we have to make the space within ourselves by changing our old ways. BEST MOMENTS “Reality is malleable; the way to change the external is to change the internal first” “Go to war with yourself, raise the standards of your life” “Each challenge you face is the birth of the next level of you” "Our spirit, our soul energy, is already that of the higest frequency" HOST BIO I am Summer. A spiritual being having human experiences. From the age of 11 I have been obsessed with all things self- development; looking at it from every angle, in pursuit of finding answers for my life. Like all other humans I am figuring out. Along the way I have discovered knowledge and concepts that have changed my existence and helped navigate my youth. The process of learning and undoing, growing and evolving has lead me right here. The host of Inner wealth, where I bring together the most profound teachings I’ve learnt during my time here on earth; in hopes of making it a little easier for others to get to the same wisdom. Sharing the line of truth to living a prosperous life. The core of my purpose is to be of service to humanity.

See pictures and read more on materiallyspeaking.comOriginally from Zurich, Maja was always keen to leave Switzerland and with an Italian grandmother perhaps Italy was always going to be her destination. She moved to Italy in 1991.She speaks to us about how her approach to work has changed. When she was young she liked seeing the impression her hands made on the work, while now she seeks smoothness and perfection.We meet Maja at her home - Artists Hill - an old farmhouse, surrounded by olive groves and a huge vegetable garden, which she has renovated into a home, studios, and a part that she rents out.First Maja shows us the room where she draws, and then we move over to her new modelling studio, opposite the house.In the middle of this room, towering above her, is a spiral column. It's a plastercast - soon to be realised in acrylic resin and earth.Maja tells us about a bas relief project in 16 panels called dressing. The question she originally posed was, “Can we change religion like clothes or is religion something inherent to us, you know, is it like part of us?"One of Maja's first pieces was Extension of Ego and now it takes pride of place in her studio. Maja still loves it and it represents the theme she still develops of externalising human traits in her work.Labrynth is another of Maja's pieces that follows the theme of a body's outside reflecting what is inside.majathommen.chinstagram.com/thommenmaja
