Your wearable gives you a recovery score every morning, but how much should that number influence your training?Adam Pulford breaks down the information coaches actually use when evaluating readiness, including subjective feel, life stress, recent training load, sleep, resting heart rate, and HRV. He also explains why he pays far less attention to proprietary readiness scores and detailed wearable sleep metrics, and why trends are often more useful than one morning's score.HOSTAdam Pulford has been a CTS Coach for nearly two decades and holds a B.S. in Exercise Physiology. He's participated in and coached hundreds of athletes for endurance events all around the world.Free Cycling Training Assessment: https://trainright.com/cycling-training-assessment-welcome/Interested in working with a coach?

In this episode of the On Track Podcast, President & CEO Eric Ritchie is joined by VP of Finance & CFO Tasha Gardner in the Flywheel Studio to kick off National Employee Ownership Month! They share recent project wins across New England and a strong outlook for 2027, then talk about why Sargent celebrates employee ownership twice a year. Eric closes with a reminder that the real strength of employee ownership comes from people taking the ownership piece seriously every day, and that the only way to keep it is by giving it away.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us
what happens when both choices are the right thing: the life you want, and the family who needs you? liz sargent lived that question for years. every time her sister anna needed help, the phone rang. so she did what she does with fear: she wrote it down. then she turned it into a film and cast anna as the lead. as one does, right? take me home looks like a story about disability and caregiving. it's really about what happens when someone you love needs more of you than you know how to give, and you still have to find room for your own life. we get into the moment she knew this was coming for her, ready or not. fighting a system built to wear you down. why the people we protect most are sometimes the ones we should challenge. and how you live with doing everything you could, and it still not being enough. love isn't the moment you show up. it's the moment you stay after you want to leave. that's family. it's the one class none of us signed up for, and all of us are enrolled in. if you liked this, listen to next. yia vang next: he ran from who he was. now, it's his greatest superpower. take me home: https://takemehomefilm.com/feature liz sargent: https://www.instagram.com/lizziesarge/ reppin: reppin.tv instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reppin_podcast/?hl=en here, we're human first. music by dj ace the cut lieutenant Learn more about your ad choices.

Steve Perry showed up at Sargent the Monday after his University of Maine graduation in 1975. By 6:30 that morning, he was out in the field pounding grade stakes. He retired 46 years later as the company's head of business development.In between, he worked his way through the estimating office under Dale Jellison, helped run a satellite office in New Hampshire, and eventually became one of the central figures in how Sargent evaluated, priced, and won work. He was there for the foreign ownership years, the Mid-Atlantic expansion with BFI, the rebuy in 2005, and the ESOP transition in 2013.In this episode, Steve talks about the shift from highways into utilities and then into renewable energy, and how Sargent was designing and building wind projects in 3D CAD before most of the competition even knew what was going on out in those woods. He's candid about what the foreign ownership years felt like from inside the estimating office, what the rebuy meant for the people who had stayed, and why he thinks the company's real edge has always been the ability to spot what's coming and get positioned before the market catches up.Forty-six years. One company.

In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker and Dr. Sara Ailshire examine the available evidence on planned unassisted birth, also known as freebirth, defined as intentionally giving birth without a qualified midwife or physician present. They explore why some people choose a planned unassisted birth, including previous trauma, distrust of the medical system, barriers to preferred care, and a desire for greater autonomy. Dr. Dekker and Dr. Ailshire also explain how freebirth differs from midwife-attended home birth, what research shows about planned community birth, and the safeguards a trained birth attendant can provide during pregnancy, labor, birth, and the newborn period. Finally, they discuss investigative reporting concerning the Free Birth Society, including allegations of misinformation and preventable harm associated with its community.

Beacon school tax bills were mailed this week, and the district will begin accepting payments on Wednesday (Sept. 9). Residents have 30 days, after which a 2 percent penalty is applied. The property tax rate for Beacon homes is $11.36 per $1,000 of assessed value, a 3.3 percent decrease over a year ago. The district includes homes in the towns of Fishkill and Wappinger, where the tax rate is $11.28 and $11.32, respectively. The rate decreased by 3 percent and 3.2 percent in those municipalities. The tax rate for businesses in Beacon is $15.22 per $1,000 of assessed value, a 2.9 percent decrease. In Fishkill and Wappinger, the rates are $15.56 and $15.20, a 3 percent and 2.9 percent decrease. The district's tax rates have decreased each year since 2021, but assessments have also risen annually, so a homeowner may not see savings. The increase in assessed values for homes in Beacon this year was 6.7 percent and for businesses, 9.2 percent. In Fishkill, assessments increased by 6.9 percent and 10.2 percent, and in Wappinger, by 10.7 percent and 7.6 percent. Superintendent Matt Landahl updated the school board on Aug. 24 on capital projects underway in the district. New playground equipment has been installed at Sargent Elementary, and play structures at Glenham Elementary should be ready by the first day of school on Sept. 8. With the upgrades, new equipment has been installed at each of the district's four elementary schools. New boilers for Beacon High School and Glenham are on track to be installed before the heating season. Improvements to the baseball and softball fields at the high school should be complete before the spring 2027 seasons. Work on the fire alarms and public address systems in all six district schools has begun. Renovations to Seeger Theater at the high school will take place in January and February. Air conditioning at Sargent and South Avenue elementaries will begin in the spring. Sargent will get AC in 2027 in common spaces such as the gym and cafeteria. Some classrooms will be air-conditioned the following year. South Avenue will get AC in the gym and cafeteria and second-floor classrooms. AC work at Glenham, Forrestal Elementary and Rombout Middle School will begin in 2028. The high school tennis courts and the entryways at all schools will be resurfaced next summer. Other than the playgrounds at Sargent and Glenham, which were funded by a 2021 capital plan, the work is being paid for with $50 million in spending approved by district voters in 2024. The school board approved a resolution to use $790,000 from savings to cover a shortfall in the 2025-26 budget. The district hired several staff members last fall to assist with special education, but their salaries were not included in the spending plan. There is no impact to taxpayers, and the salaries are included in the 2026-27 budget, said Deputy Superintendent Ann Marie Quartironi. When Rombout Middle School students begin nine-period days next week (instead of eight), an initiative in the 2026-27 budget, there will be room for sixth graders to take health and Life Design Skills, a new course on social/emotional skills and the transition to middle school. For seventh graders, the new classes include Innovators in Action (an entrepreneurial lab) and 10-week electives on family and consumer science, video and media production and other subjects. With the additional period, eighth graders will be able to take high school-level studio art — previously offered only at 7:30 a.m., before the school day — during regular hours.
In this episode of the On Track Podcast, President & CEO Eric Ritchie is joined by Project Manager Scott Bartlett, Project Manager Ryan Cullen, and Project Executive Bernard Lupini in the Flywheel Studio to talk about the WingtraRAY, a new drone the Mid-Atlantic region picked up this year. The group breaks down how the drone covers ground far faster than the old quadcopter drone. Bartlett, Cullen, and Lupini talk through how that faster data helps coordinate daily work with foremen and superintendents, keeps GCs and subs on the same page, and gives project executives more solid numbers for billing and forecasting on large-scale earthwork.WingtraRAY Video: https://youtu.be/cKYpSy7LdBIIf you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us
Todays guest Herb Sargent was not always a man of faith. We look into his journey of entrepreneurship and how his values changed throughout his life, and even his company values. You can listen to today's episode at www.corymcarlson.com/podcast In this episode, you'll discover… Key trait to win at home and at work (1:45) Healthy conflict. (6:15) Keeping your company curious to grow (15:30) Why he hired a coach (19:45) Herb's Bio: My favorite part of the job is knowing that we are bringing value to not only our employee-owners but also our customers. I also really enjoy the fact that, due to our employee ownership plan, I'm working for and serving our employee-owners. We need to brush off the stigma that the construction industry is just some dead-end job when in actuality, it's not a dead-end job at all. It's one thing if you go to college and then work in construction, but there's a lot of stigma in our society associated with not going to college and working in construction. In reality, there are ample opportunities in this industry — and you might even say equivalent opportunities — whether you go to college or not. There are so many opportunities for advancement, and we need to do a better job of highlighting that. I like to spend my free time with my family — I'm married to Tristine and I have two adult children, James and Savannah, and a step-son, Colby. I love to be on the water. It doesn't need to be a big yacht or anything like that. Just get me in a boat on the water and I'm happy. I also like to cook. I'm all over the place in the kitchen. I have a pizza oven, so I like to do fire-roasted pizzas. I also enjoy smoking meat. Getting together and making a meal with friends and family is always fun for me. Learn more here What's Next?

Join our next FASO Show Live!https://artists.boldbrush.com/p/the-faso-showLearn the magic of marketing with us here at BoldBrush!boldbrushshow.com--For today's episode we sat down with Rich Nelson, a signature member of both the Portrait Society of America and Oil Painters of America, with a career that grew out of an unlikely start playing in a rock band before formal illustration training pulled him toward fine art. In this episode, he breaks down Sargent's blunt advice that you can't shortcut your way into portraiture: you have to become a real, all-around artist first, mastering anatomy, landscape, and still life before you ever specialize. He'll also make you rethink what goes in your portfolio, with a simple rule: never show work you don't want to get hired to do more of, because clients will always call back asking for exactly what they saw. And he shares the deceptively simple habit that's opened more doors for him than almost anything else: reaching out to other artists and asking real questions, and maybe even visiting their studio. If you're anywhere near Tryon, North Carolina, don't miss Rich's stacked 42-piece solo show at the Tryon Fine Arts Center — up through October 17th and almost entirely painted from life. And this October, his Plein Air Painters of the East crew rolls into Charleston for a week that culminates in a can't-miss group show at the Meyer Vogel Gallery.

Kann man seinen Bindungsstil verändern oder bleibt eine ängstliche Bindung ein Leben lang bestehen? Diese Frage beschäftigt viele Menschen, die unter Verlustangst leiden, in Beziehungen schnell verunsichert sind oder nach einem Vertrauensbruch selbst dann noch Alarm spüren, wenn der Partner längst wieder verlässlich ist. Die Bindungsforschung zeigt ein differenziertes und zugleich hoffnungsvolles Bild: Bindungsmuster sind erstaunlich stabil, aber sie sind kein unveränderliches Schicksal. Neue Beziehungserfahrungen, Psychotherapie und ein stabileres Selbstbild können dazu beitragen, dass ängstliche Bindung abnimmt und mehr innere Sicherheit entsteht.

There is a saying in Spanish: get burned by hot milk, and the sight of a cow makes you cry. New research implies that, decades after a populist government leaves office, the central bank it once tried to control is still flinching.Martín Uribe (Columbia) and Nicolás Magud (IMF) have investigated the long-run effect of populist governments that leaned on their central banks to print money and feed inflation. They find that these central banks raise interest rates more aggressively than others when inflation drifts above target, even decades later.This is the second of four episodes drawn from papers commissioned for the second Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues conference, organised by CEPR, CESifo and Sciences Po.The research behind this episode:Jácome, Luis, Nicolás E. Magud, Samuel Pienknagura, and Martín Uribe. 2026. "Fiscal Populism and Monetary Policy Rules." Conference draft, presented at the 2nd Economic Policy: Papers on European and Global Issues Conference, Venice, 19-20 June 2026. Forthcoming in Economic Policy.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, Martín Uribe, and Nicolás E. Magud. 2026. "Fiscal Populism and Monetary Policy." VoxTalks Economics (podcast).About the guestsMartin Uribe is the Robert A. Mundell Professor of Economics at Columbia University and a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research. His research spans international macroeconomics and the theory of monetary and fiscal policy, with recent work on tariff shocks, fiscal dominance, and the long-run legacy of high inflation on how central banks set policy. He is editor-in-chief of the Journal of International Economics.Nicolás E. Magud is a Senior Economist in the International Monetary Fund's Western Hemisphere Department. His research spans open-economy macroeconomics, with a focus on fiscal policy, exchange rates, capital flows, and capital controls, much of it drawn from Latin America's long experience of inflation and central bank reform.Research cited in this episodeThe populist leaders database. Funke, Manuel, Moritz Schularick, and Christoph Trebesch. 2023. "Populist Leaders and the Economy." American Economic Review 113 (12): 3249-88. The authors classify a leader as populist if their rhetoric splits society into "the people" against "the elites," then divide populists into left-wing, whose target is economic elites, and right-wing, whose target is foreigners and minorities. Deficit monetisation and "unpleasant monetarist arithmetic." Sargent, Thomas J., and Neil Wallace. 1981. "Some Unpleasant Monetarist Arithmetic." Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis Quarterly Review 5 (3). The paper that established the mechanism this episode turns on: when a government's deficit is financed by its own central bank printing money rather than by selling bonds to the public, the result is inflation. It gives the paper's account of populism and central bank credit its theoretical backbone.Local projections difference-in-differences. Dube, Arindrajit, Daniele Girardi, Oscar Jorda , and Alan M. Taylor. 2025. "A Local Projections Approach to Difference-in-Differences." Journal of Applied Econometrics 40 (7): 741-58. The statistical method behind the paper's headline charts. It compares countries that have just installed a populist government against "clean" control countries with no recent populist history, tracking central bank credit year by year after the change of regime.The Central Bank Independence Extended (CBIE) index. Romelli, Davide. 2022. "The Political Economy of Reforms in Central Bank Design: Evidence from a New Dataset." Economic Policy 37 (112): 641-88. A dataset scoring central bank laws on their independence, including limits on lending to government. The paper uses it to show that countries with a populist past, especially a left-wing one, now have stricter legal limits on central bank lending than countries with no such history.Argentina, Chile, and Mexico. The paper's three historical case studies. In Argentina, governments from Perón onward repeatedly rewrote central bank law to permit financing of the treasury, contributing to repeated bouts of high inflation and, eventually, hyperinflation in the 1980s. In Chile, the Allende government printed money to fund an expansion of the state, and inflation reached roughly 600% in 1973 before the government was overthrown. In Mexico, President EcheverrÃa's public investment drive in the 1970s was financed in part by the central bank, feeding an inflation and currency crisis that culminated in the country's 1982 default. Uribe and Magud point to these episodes as the historical template their statistical results describe.Related reading on VoxEUCentral bank independence: An update, a VoxEU column in which Sylvester Eijffinger and Jakob de Haan argue that legal independence alone does not shield a central bank from political pressure to loosen policy.Recent trends in central bank independence, in which Davide Romelli, whose index this paper uses to track legal independence, documents a fresh wave of reforms strengthening central banks worldwide since 2016.

Tim Folster started at Sargent in 1979, fresh out of college and assigned to a road crew in Kenduskeag. He retired 40 years later, having worked as a foreman, general superintendent, and head of operations through many major chapters the company has lived through.In this episode, Tim covers a lot of ground. He talks about the early days of H.E. Sargent, what it was like to work under Jim Sargent during the growth years, and what the company felt like before and after the sale to foreign ownership in 1988. He's candid about what that era did to the company and what it meant when Herb R. Sargent bought H.E. Sargent in 2005.You'll also hear Tim on the expansion into the Mid-Atlantic, the wind farm years, the early days of the ESOP, and what he thinks carries a company through the bad stretches as much as the good ones.Forty years puts you in the room for a lot.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us
Higher education capital planning, university procurement, and what it really takes to win AEC work with a public university anchor this conversation with Howard Wertheimer, FAIA Emeritus, LEED AP, Interim Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities at UNC-Chapel Hill.Howard has spent more than two decades on both sides of the design and construction table. He built his career in private practice, including 21 years as a Partner and Principal at Lord, Aeck and Sargent, before moving into ownership and institutional leadership roles at Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt University, and now UNC-Chapel Hill, where he oversees planning, design, construction, and operations across nearly 20 million square feet of campus facilities.Host Katie Cash sits down with Howard to unpack how UNC's capital improvement plan comes together, from early pre-planning and budgeting through board approval, and what firms need to understand about the state's advertising and procurement process. Howard explains why attention to detail on proposals, from accurate references to correctly spelled university names, matters more than most firms realize, and how outdated reference contacts can quietly sink a submission. He also shares how UNC brought in an independent cost estimator to reconcile budgets on a CM at-risk delivery project and saved three million dollars on a single job, along with a look at the 950-acre former airport site UNC recently acquired for future campus development.Whether a firm is chasing its first project with a public university or working to strengthen a long-standing relationship, Howard's perspective from both sides of the table offers a clear, practical roadmap. It is a conversation packed with guidance for any AEC firm serious about growing its higher education practice.Key TakeawaysSweat the details. Typos, misspelled university names, and language copied from a previous proposal read as a lack of care and are one of the fastest ways to lose credibility with a selection committee.Keep references current and relevant. Outdated contact information undermines a proposal before anyone picks up the phone, and a reference tied to the wrong project type can do just as much damage.Local presence builds trust. For out-of-state firms pursuing public university work, having someone who can be on site within a day matters, especially on the construction side.Independent cost estimating pays for itself. Bringing in a third-party estimator to reconcile budgets between the design team and the CM helped UNC save three million dollars on a single project.Connect with Howard Wertheimer, FAIA Emeritus, LEED AP, Interim Associate Vice Chancellor for Facilities, The University of NC at Chapel Hillhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/howard-wertheimer-faia-emeritus-leed-ap-6711454/Resources Mentioned in Episode:The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, official website and facilities RFQ postingsGeorgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), Howard's previous institutionUniversity of North Carolina System, Board of GovernorsUNC-Chapel Hill Board of TrusteesNorth Carolina State Construction Office (SCO)Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design, Georgia TechClough Undergraduate Commons, Georgia TechKrone Engineered Biosystems Building, Georgia Tech, AIA COTE Top Ten award winner, LEED PlatinumHoward Wertheimer's contact email: worthy@unc.eduConnect with Katie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kacash/https://smartegies.com/ Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts:We hope you're finding value in our AEC Marketing For Principals.

In this episode of the Sargent: On Track Podcast, President & CEO Eric Ritchie is joined by Workforce Advancement Manager Pete Parizo in the Flywheel Studio, along with three guests joining remotely: Senior Foreman Alex Morgan, Junior Superintendent Jacson Blais, and Dozer Operator Chandler Plante. The conversation centers on the paths these three employee-owners took from the Sargent Construction Academy (SCA) into leadership roles. Each former student shares what drew them to Sargent, often through family connections to the company, and describes their experiences going through the Academy between 2016 and 2019. They talk about their first days on the job, the mentors who helped them grow, and the moment each of them stepped into more responsibility on their crews. The conversation shifts into leadership, with Pete Perrizo noting that leadership isn't tied to title; it's something everyone practices every day, for better or worse.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us

With special guest Board Chair Herb Sargent, the conversation also dives into employee-owner questions about business transparency and the legal reasons certain acquisition details can't be shared. Herb also weighs in on the age-old staffing challenge, shares a piece of company history, and reminds everyone that this company was never built on perfection — just doing what you can, with what you've got, every day.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us

The conversation also digs into retirement planning, tax implications of the ESOP and 401k, and the difference between Roth and traditional contributions at different stages of a career.

May 20, 2026 They Tried to Undo 100 Years of His Family's Work Herb Sargent w/ Sargent Corporation – DT 444 Herb Sargent is the Board Chair of Sargent Corporation, a 100-year-old employee-owned civil construction company in Maine, and co-host of the Starbuck & Sargent podcast. He bought back his family's company — six times the size of his own — the same year a German-owned parent company tried to undo everything his grandfather built. He reveals why the construction industry's biggest problem isn't workforce shortage, it's leadership — and why employee ownership might be the only vehicle left to rebuild the American middle class. His new book, “The Hard Work Starts Today,” documents the 100-year Sargent journey, from simple REO Speedwagon to a 9-figure business.

Mark Sargent of the YouTube Flat Earth community, discusses the 2014-2015 origins of his “Flat Earth Clues” series, which he created after finding himself unable to prove the globe model to his own satisfaction,,,. The conversation centers on the concept of media fakery, where Sargent and host Tim Ozman argue that if special effects are possible in Hollywood, they can be used to deceive the public on television,. They analyze perceived glitches in modern space missions like NASA's Artemis, such as missing shadows and the absence of stars in video footage, suggesting these are failures of high-stakes “live” production,,. The discussion further explores the idea of the world as a programmed simulation created by a higher power, alongside a critique of modern figures like Elon Musk, who is described as a “placeholder” for a manufactured narrative,,,.Key TopicsThe Origin of “Flat Earth Clues”: Mark Sargent describes a “Moment of Clarity” at 3:00 a.m. in February 2015 that led him to stop trying to prove the globe and instead begin writing his influential video series,.Media Fakery and Cinematic “Fillers”: The sources suggest that films like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Capricorn One were used to subconsciously fill in the blanks for the public regarding what space travel and planetary missions should look like,,.Critique of NASA's “Live” Production: Sargent argues that NASA's biggest flaw is insisting on live broadcasts, which allow modern skeptics to analyze footage frame-by-frame to find glitches, such as objects appearing to “teleport” or harnesses being visible,,,.Space as “Future Faking”: The concept of colonizing Mars is described as “future faking”—a mental construct and “psyop” designed to shape worldviews rather than a technologically achievable goal,.Simulation Theory and Higher Power: Sargent expresses his belief that God is a programmer and that the world functions under “ones and zeros,” comparing reality to the “double-slit experiment” rules used in video game rendering,,.Significant Quotes“I woke up in the middle of the night 3 a.m. and had this Moment of Clarity... here I am trying to prove the globe in a court of law in my head, can't do it.” --MS“As a rule, if they can fake it in the movies, they can fake it on TV.“ -- TO“NASA's biggest flaw right now is they still insist on doing it live.“ --MS“Power perceived is power achieved, which is the average person doesn't understand the 95 percent... of the bandwidth... is still undersea cables.” --MS“I do believe that God was a programmer.“ --MS
