Inside Jonah Hill’s jaw-dropping million Malibu pad with dreamy ocean views

Inside Jonah Hill’s jaw-dropping $13million Malibu pad with dreamy ocean views

Published by Daniella Wilson

Jonah Hill’s former Malibu retreat has officially hit the market, and it’s every bit the California dream home you would expect from one of Hollywood’s most recognizable stars. Nestled within the ultra-exclusive guard-gated Malibu Colony enclave, the newly redesigned property is listed for $13.25 million and offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of one of Southern California’s most coveted beachfront communities. The four-bedroom, four-bathroom residence spans approximately 3,653 square feet and has undergone a sophisticated transformation that blends laid-back coastal luxury with elevated contemporary design. While the home’s celebrity pedigree is enough to turn heads, it’s the breathtaking interiors, private outdoor oasis and enviable ocean access that truly steal the show. © Nate Williams A masterclass in California cool The residence has been newly staged and redesigned by Vesta Home, with designer Tiara Coughlan leaning into what she describes as the property’s “effortless California cool.” Rather than competing with the home’s architecture, the interiors have been carefully curated to enhance its strongest features, including soaring ceilings, dramatic black accent walls, oversized windows and …

UK students and recent graduates: share your views on going to university | Students

According to the latest British Social Attitudes (BSA) survey, the proportion of people who believe a university degree is not worth the time and money has jumped from 14% in 2005 to 34% in 2025.

Fabulous views, ferry rides and tucked-away beaches: readers’ favourite UK coast walks | United Kingdom holidays

Fabulous views, ferry rides and tucked-away beaches: readers’ favourite UK coast walks | United Kingdom holidays

Published by Sam Flores

A tidal island off Ynys Môn (Anglesey) With an impressive mix of mountain and sea views, the 130-mile Anglesey Coastal Path is a must-do for those who love a good walk. But like most locals, my perennial favourite is the offshoot trail out to the tidal island Ynys Llanddwyn. Having grown up on Ynys Môn but now living in London, for me it has become something of an annual pilgrimage in the summer months. The mile-long walk along the main beach to the island is manageable and fun for grandparents and grandkids alike – with the white-washed lighthouses offering a rewarding end viewpoint. Pack a picnic, swim in the clear waters and relax – just make sure you’ve checked the tide times!Lavinia Brydon Profile Readers’ tips: send a tip for a chance to win a £200 voucher for a Coolstays break Show Guardian Travel readers’ tips Every week we ask our readers for recommendations from their travels.

The co-host of The View condemned Dart, 23, during Tuesday’s episode while discussing how the NFL newbie showed his support for the president by introducing him on stage Friday at a New York rally. “For somebody to back a guy like Trump whose history, and discrimination, and racism goes back to housing discrimination in the seventies and DEI attacks and posting pictures of the Obamas as apes,” Behar, 83, said. She then pointed out that more than half of the football player’s colleagues in the NFL are Black, saying, “That is just the definition of stupidity and racist in my opinion.” She later added: “Maybe he needs a little extra padding.” While Behar laid out her issues with Dart supporting Trump, …

NSS event with More In Common explores British views on religion

NSS event with More In Common explores British views on religion

Published by Sam Flores

The National Secular Society teamed up with a social cohesion think tank to present joint research on British people’s attitudes to religion and society. Last Thursday, the NSS and More In Common presented their recently published findings from polling and focus groups. Watch a recording from this event: More In Common’s Andrew Fowler called the research one of the most “existential” the organisation has worked on, because “it gave us the opportunity to ask some of the really big questions to Britons”. He said key “British values” demonstrated by the findings include a desire for equality, and everyone “equally able to live their own lives and express their religion how they want”. But he added that when religions “do things that we think actually limit other people’s freedom of expression”, or perpetrate “cruelty or oppressive practices”, this crosses “a red line” for Britons. Harmful practices most survey respondents opposed include forced genital cutting and non-stun slaughter. NSS head of campaign Megan Manson highlighted that few Britons are aware of the concept of secularism or the …

Political loser perceptions alter white American views on wealth distribution

Political loser perceptions alter white American views on wealth distribution

Published by José Betancourt

White Americans who feel they are on the losing side of politics are more likely to oppose economic redistribution programs. This effect only appears when people compare their political standing directly to that of racial minorities. The findings were published in the journal Research and Politics. Economic redistribution involves transferring wealth or income within a society, usually through taxation and social welfare programs. In many developed nations, high levels of income inequality usually lead to increased public demand for these programs. The United States is a notable exception to this trend. The country features high economic inequality, yet public support for government redistribution remains relatively low. Political scientists have proposed several explanations for this paradox. Some researchers point to American individualism or largely optimistic beliefs about upward mobility. Others suggest that many voters simply lack knowledge about how economic policies actually function. More recent research looks at social relations rather than individual knowledge. People do not form their economic preferences in a vacuum. They compare themselves to others to figure out where they stand in …
