Buyer plans to convert station into residence The Beacon City Council is expected to vote on Monday (Dec. 15) to authorize the sale of the former Beacon Engine Co. fire station on East Main Street, the second of two surplus stations to be sold by the city. The contract should be signed in the next week, said City Attorney Nick Ward-Willis. As was the case with the sale in June of the former Mase Hook & Ladder station at 425 Main St., city officials said they would not reveal the buyer or sale price until the contract is finalized. "Similar to a private deal, you don't negotiate in public, especially on the financial terms," Ward-Willis told the council in May. On Monday (Dec. 8), Ward-Willis said the buyer lives out of state in a building on the National Register of Historic Places. What attracted them to the 1889 Beacon Engine station at 57 East Main St., which is also on the National Register, "is the ability to restore this and turn it into a new use," he said. The buyer intends to convert the 6,052-square-foot structure into a single-family home. "They're excited to move to the city," Ward-Willis said. "They have connections to the city and are ready to try to close pretty quickly on this." A single-family home is permitted in the R1 zoning district, so Planning Board approval will not be required for the conversion. However, the building is in Beacon's protected historic district, so substantial exterior changes would require a "certificate of appropriateness" from the board. In May, a real-estate agency hired by the city listed Mase for $1.95 million and the Beacon Engine firehouse for $1.75 million. The Beacon Engine listing is still active at $1.595 million. Both properties, former headquarters for volunteer companies that served the city for more than a century, became surplus after a $14.7 million centralized fire station opened near City Hall in 2024. The ownership of the Beacon Engine station was disputed by a group of retired volunteer firefighters who served there. The volunteers continued to use the building after the station closed in 2021 for social gatherings and to coordinate charitable campaigns. They fought eviction, arguing that - as had long been believed - the volunteer company owned the original structure, while the city owned the engine bay added in 1924. City officials conducted a title search in 2023 that they said revealed municipal ownership of the entire site, and a state judge in July dismissed four requests from the retired volunteers, declaring the City of Beacon as the sole owner. The council's vote on Monday will acknowledge that an ownership transfer would not negatively impact the environment and authorize City Administrator Chris White to move forward with the sale. Mase Hook & Ladder The former Mase station was purchased by Michael Bensimon, a Westchester County resident who owns commercial buildings at 475 Main and 508 Main. It is being converted to have a ground-level retail space occupied by Stanza Books, which is now at 508 Main St., and four apartments on the upper two floors. Stanza has asked the Planning Board for permission to construct a partially enclosed patio as a barrier between the store and the parking lot. On nice days, a rear door will be open, and the patio will protect children who come outside, co-owner Mark Harris told the board on Tuesday (Dec. 9). A public hearing on Stanza's application will be held in January. The Planning Board issued a certificate of appropriateness to the developer in October for minor exterior modifications, including the installation of ornamental sconces along the facade. A residential entrance will be added to the eastern side of the structure, and insulated glass doors will provide access to two of the apartments. Bensimon also plans to replace some windows and repair and/or repaint deteriorated areas of the facade, trim and door panels with matching materials.

I want to return to this profound poem we are studying for the autumn practice period—Affirming Faith in Mind.If mind does not discriminate, all things are as they are as one. To go to this mysterious source—frees us from all entanglements.When all is seen with equal mind, to our self-nature we return. This single mind goes right beyond all reasons and comparison.This poem is about Trust in Mind, Faith in our true nature, Trust in the Heart of WisdomDo we trust our heart-mind?Do you have faith in the nature of your own mind? Your own heart?This poem is a “pointing out” style teaching. Stanza by stanza, line by line—it's pointing to the Mind beyond thought. It's inviting us to recognize who we are beyond our strategies of defending, protecting, judging, identifying.We too can know ourselves as mystery.We too can know the source of all experience.There is encouragement and support to turn towards the apparent source of our suffering, and really look into its nature. To experience for ourselves the freedom, spaciousness, clarity and love of our nature. Right, here.Dahui in one of his letters addresses a student's concern that he is dull, and his dullness is preventing him from realizing his true nature.Dahui responds:That which perceives dullness is certainly not dull itself…indeed you should use your very dullness in order to enter the Way. However, if you identify with dullness and regard yourself as incapable by nature of awakening, you will find yourself caught by the demon of dullness.As I see it, in our ordinary way of seeing things we tend to let the desire for awakening get ahead of us and thus turn it into an obstacle preventing our true understanding from manifesting. But this obstacle is neither outside ourselves nor separate from ourselves—it is none other than the Master perceiving itself as “dull.”For this reason everyday Ruiyan Shiyan would call to himself, “Master!” He would then answer himself, “Yes!” “Be wide awake!” he would say, and again answer himself, “Yes!” Then he would say, “Whatever the time, whatever the day, never be misled by others!” “Yes! Yes!” Try examining this in your own way. The one who asks, what is this? is none other than the one who perceives dullness. And the one who perceives dullness is none other than your own True Self.Whether it is dullness, distraction, anger, fear. Whatever we habitually identify with and appears to block our path. What happens when we turn our attention toward the one who is aware of this apparent block? The “master” or True Self is always at home.We are invited to recognize this always present awareness, for ourselves, in our own lives.Freedom and love. Always right here.We are entering the last weeks of this calendar year. Can we use this time to reconnect with our aspiration? To recognize the true self, and not be misled by others.And to also appreciate the season of practice we are in. There are times where we are actually developing our discernment, our discriminating mind. Some of us are learning to trust ourselves, to stand in our karma, to take responsibility for our lives.Part of Trust in Mind, is having the courage to take action, to follow the call when it arises. For some of us the call may take you to a monastery or into a period of inquiry and spiritual investigation. For others it may have more to do with how you are showing up in your lives, or it may be about healing, or responding to a relational challenge. I know some of you are sitting in the question and are listening for the next step. That's part of this path too—I listened for 7 years before I had clarity, courage, conviction and life circumstances to move to the monastery. I am listening now for the next step on this path, as I continue to deepen my practice and develop new skills.Do not be deceived by others. I love this line. For many of us, it is a worthwhile practice to say this to ourselves, regularly. Who are these others? The thoughts in our own minds, the ones that are always comparing ourselves to someone else. What happens when we fully embrace this life? When we live our wisdom? When we honor our limitations, our karmic inheritance—and live the life we have?Tomorrow is Bodhi Day and I will be offering a telling of the Buddha's awakening story. We will explore the hero's journey in the Buddha's story and see how elements of the Buddha's path are part of our own journey's.

Today's guest is Ian Schrager, the legendary hotelier, entrepreneur, and cultural pioneer who reshaped nightlife and hospitality as we know it.Ian first made his mark in the 1970s as the co-founder of Studio 54, the iconic New York nightclub that became a symbol of glamour, freedom, and cultural revolution. Alongside his partner Steve Rubell, Ian created an experience that transcended nightlife, merging design, celebrity, and theatricality into something entirely new.After Studio 54, Ian continued to reinvent hospitality. In the 1980s, he launched the Morgans Hotel Group, introducing the world's first “boutique hotel” : a concept that blended art, design, and service in a way that changed the industry forever. At a time when hotels were seen purely as places to sleep, Ian reimagined them as vibrant social hubs, activating lobbies, bars, and restaurants as dynamic public spaces that reflected and contributed to the cultural life of a city. With properties like Morgans, the Royalton, and the Delano, he transformed the hotel from a travel necessity into a cornerstone of the modern urban landscape: a place where design, community, and experience converged.In more recent years, Ian has continued to redefine hospitality with two visionary brands. EDITION Hotels, created in partnership with Marriott International, brings his boutique sensibility to a global stage. With around 22 properties worldwide, from New York and Miami Beach to London, Barcelona, Tokyo, and Dubai, each EDITION is designed as a one-of-a-kind reflection of its city, combining understated luxury, cutting-edge design, and activated social spaces that feel both intimate and electric.By contrast, PUBLIC represents Ian's evolution of the idea: “luxury for all.” Its flagship on New York's Lower East Side, designed by Herzog & de Meuron, reimagines the hotel experience through high style, technology, and inclusivity, featuring self check-in, vibrant communal areas, and nightlife-driven energy at a democratic price point. With plans to expand to West Hollywood and beyond, PUBLIC distills Schrager's decades of innovation into an accessible, modern model for the next generation of travelers.Across every chapter of his career, Ian Schrager has consistently challenged convention, blurring the lines between hospitality, art, and lifestyle, and influencing generations of hoteliers, designers, and creatives along the way.In this episode, Ian reflects on his incredible journey, from Studio 54 to the present, and shares the insights, risks, and instincts that have defined his enduring legacy.A heartfelt thank you to Peoplevine for sponsoring The Stanza podcast this year (and for supporting The Stanza since the beginning).

When we think of World War One, our images of the conflict are largely shaped by those of the Western Front or perhaps Gallipoli. It was a truly global conflict, however, and one less remarked upon campaign was that of an ill-fated Anglo-Indian force dispatched to secure oil supplies in what is, today, southern Iraq.  Poet, playwright and songwriter Jenny Lewis' father fought as part of that force. Her collection Taking Mesopotamia (Carcanet) re-imagines the campaign using her father's diaries. It also takes in more recent wars in the region as well as the story of Gilgamesh, the ancient Sumerian warrior king, to create a vision of a mankind that repeatedly fails to learn the lessons of war. Lewis took time out from the StAnza poetry festival, where she was appearing in March 2014,to talk to us about war, oil, myth, and the gods. Photo by Ben Prestney

rWotD Episode 3070: Liðsmannaflokkr Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Monday, 29 September 2025, is Liðsmannaflokkr.Liðsmannaflokkr ("household troop's poem") is the title of a skaldic poem in ten stanzas describing the capture of London by Cnut the Great in 1016, preserved in Óláfs saga helga and Flateyjarbók (fol. 186v), and in a shorter version in Knýtlinga saga.Óláfs saga attributes the poem to Olaf himself, while according to Knýtlinga saga, the poem was composed by members of Cnut's household troops during the London campaign. According to Poole (1991), the latter version is more credible.Stanza 7 praises Cnut's actions in battle, Knútr réð ok bað bíða,baugstalls, Dani alla,lundr gekk rǫskr und randir,ríkr, vá herr við díki;nær vas, sveit þars sóttum,syn, með hjalm ok brynju,elds, sem olmum heldielg Rennandi kennir."Cnut decided and commanded all the Danes to wait; the 'mighty tree of the ring support' (baugstalls lundr ríkr) went bravely under the shields; the army fought by the moat. Lady,where we sought out the enemy with helmet and mail-shirt, it was nearly as if the 'master of the fire of Rennandi' (elds Rennandi kennir) were holding a maddened elk."This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:00 UTC on Monday, 29 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Liðsmannaflokkr on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Ayanda.

Dr. Jonathan Leary is the founder of Remedy Place, the social wellness club reimagining how we gather, recover, and connect. Trained in medicine and drawn to a more human, preventative approach, Jonathan spent years building a concierge sports-medicine practice while refining a 150-page business plan for a new kind of health club - one that could make self-care social and compelling. He opened the first Remedy Place in Los Angeles and has since expanded to New York and Boston, with a growing movement around contrast therapy, IV lounges, and community-driven rituals that help people feel better together.In this conversation, Jonathan shares his founder story: from the pivot that gave him five years of real-world data, to why he personally guaranteed his first lease. We unpack the idea of “social self-care” and why drink dates blunt connection, the business model behind Remedy Place, and what he's learned scaling from two to four clubs in just months.Thank you to Peoplevine for sponsoring the 2025 season of The Stanza.

Today's guest is Eugene Remm, who co-founded Catch Hospitality Group in 2011. Eugene has opened Catch locations in 7 different markets throughout the U.S. and most recently, The Corner Store in New York, which has been a big success. Eugene started his hospitality career in the New York nightlife business in the 2000's, launching hit concepts such as Tenjune and SL, before pivoting to large format restaurants post 2008. Following this defining moment in his career, Eugene doubled down on the Catch concept and took a bold step forward by launching the LA location. In 2017, upon the success of Catch LA, Tilman Fertitta became a partner in Catch Hospitality Group. In this interview, we chatted about Eugene's background as a Russian immigrant and his attitude towards entrepreneurship, and building longevity in hospitality through the humility to learn from mistakes and relentlessly evolving the guest experience.Thank you Peoplevine for making this podcast possible.

Seorang pedagang kaya raya yang bernama Mahādhāna bersama dengan rombongannya tidak dapat melewati sungai yang sedang meluap dan terjebak di pinggir sungai selama tujuh hari. Kemudian si pedagang memutuskan untuk menghabiskan barang-barang bawaannya dengan tinggal di pinggir sungai selama musim hujan, dingin dan panas. Saat Buddha mengetahui pemikiran dari pedagang tersebut, Buddha lalu tersenyum. Seperti yang kita ketahui, Buddha tidak akan tersenyum untuk alasan duniawi. Lalu apa hal yang membuat-Nya tersenyum?Di kelas ini Ashin Kheminda menjelaskan makna kata demi kata stanza 286-289 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Jalan (Maggavagga) dan Stanza 291-295 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Serbaneka hanya berdasarkan Pāḷi dan kitab komentarnya (Aṭṭhakathā).

Setelah kembali dari Vesali, Buddha menerima berbagai cara penghormatan dari para dewa, brahma, naga, dan manusia. Penghormatan yang besar seperti ini bukan dikarenakan oleh kekuatan Buddha di saat ini namun merupakan buah dari kebajikan kecil yang dilakukan oleh-Nya di masa lampau. Apa kebajikan yang telah dilakukan oleh Beliau di kehidupan sebelumnya?Di kelas ini Ashin Kheminda menjelaskan makna kata demi kata stanza 286-289 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Jalan (Maggavagga) dan Stanza 290 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Serbaneka hanya berdasarkan Pāḷi dan kitab komentarnya (Aṭṭhakathā).

Saat sedang berjalan bersama Y.M. Lakkhana di daerah Bukit Gijjhakuta, Y.M. Mahamoggallana tersenyum setelah melihat sesosok hantu yang berkepala babi dan berbadan manusia. Diceritakan oleh Buddha Gotama bahwa hantu tersebut di kehidupan sebelumnya di zaman Buddha Kassapa merupakan seorang rahib laki-laki yang pintar memberikan ceramah Dhamma. Apa yang dilakukannya sehingga membuahkan kelahiran yang demikian?

Pada awalnya Buddha mengajarkan para rahib laki-laki untuk tidak berbicara atau diam saat sedang menerima derma makanan, namun tidak halnya para pertapa dari aliran lainnya, mereka akan mengucapkan kata-kata yang penuh berkah kepada para penderma. Hal ini kemudian jadi perbincangan publik sehingga Buddha kemudian menetapkan bahwa para rahib laki-laki boleh mengucapkan kata-kata penuh berkah setelah menerima dana makanan. Hal ini tentu diprotes oleh para pertapa lainnya. Bagaimana cara Buddha menghadapi mereka?Di kelas ini Ashin Kheminda menjelaskan makna kata demi kata stanza 258-269 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Orang yang Adil (Dhammatthavagga) hanya berdasarkan Pāḷi dan kitab komentarnya (Aṭṭhakathā).

Saat sedang membabarkan Dhamma kepada lima umat perumah tangga, hanya ada satu yang mendengarkan dengan penuh perhatian, sedangkan yang lainnya ada yang tertidur, menatap ke langit atau menggambar di tanah dengan menggunakan jari tangannya. Mengapa reaksi mereka bisa berbeda dalam menerima Dhamma bahkan dari Buddha sendiri? Bagaimana dengan Anda?Di kelas ini Ashin Kheminda menjelaskan makna kata demi kata stanza 251-253 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Noda-Noda (Malavagga) dan 255-257 dari Kelompok Stanza tentang Orang yang Adil (Dhammatthavagga) hanya berdasarkan Pāḷi dan kitab komentarnya (Aṭṭhakathā).

Jeff Klein started his hospitality career in 1993 as a bellman at The Franklin Hotel, where he learned the ropes of running a hotel in various operational roles. His first hotel project was the successful repositioning of a midtown office building into The City Club hotel. After The City Club, Jeff raised capital to acquire the dilapidated Argyle Hotel on Sunset Boulevard, and repositioned it to The Sunset Tower Hotel, an iconic LA destination.  The Tower Bar at that hotel was his first restaurant, and remains an elegant destination for celebrities, Hollywood elite, and cultural tastemakers. In 2013, Jeff acquired the San Vicente Inn, which was a run-down seedy motel in the heart of West Hollywood, and transformed it into the San Vicente Bungalows, an exclusive private members club known for attracting high profile industry executives. Most recently, due to the demand for the privacy and discretion that the club distinctly offers, Jeff has expanded San Vicente Bungalows to Santa Monica on Ocean Boulevard and at the Jane Hotel in New York's West Village. Jeff is one of the rare hospitality entrepreneurs that has an intuitive understanding of how to buy good real estate and how to curate a timeless experience that fosters longevity and loyalty. In this interview, Jeff shares the stories behind the deals that made his career, and the valuable lessons learned along the way. Thank you Peoplevine for making this podcast possible.

Mirko Zilahy"La stanza delle ombre"Mondadori Editorewww.mondadori.itTra le torbide acque del Tevere, ai piedi della basilica di San Paolo, viene ritrovato il cadavere di una donna, in posa come se fosse vittima di un misterioso rito. È allora che il commissario Zuliani convoca Nemo Sperati, giovane docente all'Accademia delle Belle Arti. Quando posa lo sguardo sulla scena del crimine, Nemo sprofonda nella Stanza delle Ombre, il teatro mentale dove è in grado di vedere l'invisibile, riconoscere la firma dell'autore e attribuire l'opera. Perché lui possiede un talento arcano per il tenebrismo, la tecnica di chiaroscuri con cui a partire da dipinti e da scene del crimine evoca particolari nascosti, anomalie impercettibili anche alle più sofisticate tecnologie di indagine. Nel corpo della “Dama delle acque”, il professore riconosce subito la celebre Ophelia di John Everett Millais – esattamente come due settimane prima aveva fatto con il cadavere del direttore di Palazzo Barberini, che riproduceva Giaele e Sisara di Artemisia Gentileschi, da poco rubato. Il caso si complica quando il quadro viene rinvenuto e Nemo scopre che non è autentico, ma opera di Rufo Speranza, il più grande falsario del Novecento morto suicida molti anni prima. E soprattutto… suo padre. È così che Miriam Tiberi, sanguigna ispettrice di polizia che affianca Zuliani, si ritrova sulla pista che conduce direttamente a lui. Per scagionarsi, Nemo dovrà scendere negli abissi del proprio passato, separare il vero dal falso e far luce sul mistero che ammanta la vita e la morte di Rufo Speranza. Ambientato in una Roma notturna e decadente, popolato da personaggi ambigui e pieni di segreti, La Stanza delle Ombre è una corsa attraverso un labirinto di menzogne e verità nel mondo dell'arte e dei falsari. Un romanzo sulle maschere che scegliamo di indossare per proteggerci, per ingannare il mondo, o per gridare la nostra verità.Mirko Zilahy è nato a Roma. Ha conseguito un Phd presso il Trinity College di Dublino, dove ha insegnato Lingua e letteratura italiana. Collabora con il “Corriere della Sera” ed è stato editor per minimum fax nonché traduttore letterario dall'inglese (sue, fra le altre, la traduzione del Cardellino di Donna Tartt, premio Pulitzer 2014, e quella del bestseller Mystic River di Dennis Lehane). È così che si uccide, il romanzo con cui ha esordito nel 2016, è stato un grande successo internazionale di pubblico e critica. Sono seguiti La forma del buio (2017), Così crudele è la fine (2018) e L'uomo del bosco (2021), editi da Longanesi, e Nostra signora delle nuvole (2023) per HarperCollins.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Dasha Zhukova Niarchos is the founder of Ray, a residential lifestyle brand and real estate development company that builds art-forward residences. Ray's inaugural building in Philly's Fishtown neighborhood comprises 110 residential units and several amenities geared towards creatives and art & design lovers, such as artist studios, co-working space, a gym, a community kitchen, a green roof deck, a lobby living room and an independent art bookstore. One of the best perks of living at Ray is the cultural programming for residents, which includes art classes, gallery openings, and other social activities. The launch of the Philly building was a success, completing lease up in 8 months and proving the thesis that renters want to live in beautifully designed spaces that enhance their everyday experience. Ray's next building in Harlem is designed by Frida Escobedo and includes a new home for the National Black Theatre. The building comprises 222 mixed-income units, a similar suite of amenities, and stunning views of New York from its rooftop terrace.Prior to founding Ray, Dasha founded the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow in 2008. The Museum was designed by Rem Koolhaas and is Russia's first and only contemporary art archive. In 2011, she founded Garage Magazine, which she sold and bought back from Vice Magazine. Dasha is also a co-founder of Artsy, a digital art marketplace and discovery platform. She also serves on the board of several organizations and companies, such as the LA County Museum of Art, Soho House, The Met, and more.In this interview, we dove into the business of combining art, design, and real estate development into a cohesive lifestyle brand. I'm excited about Ray because I believe that branded real estate will be a big consumer trend, and I also like the way that Dasha is executing her vision with thoughtfulness and attention to detail.Thank you Peoplevine for sponsoring this episode.
