...TROPEZ: When director Roger Vadim set the racy 1956 Brigitte Bardot movie Et Dieu Cr?a la Femme (And God Created Woman) in the coastal town of St.-Tropez, he helped transform the French fishing port into a magnet for the jet set. These days, just about everyone else is drawn to "St. Trop" (around 100,000 visitors swarm the town each day in high summer)?but not during the fall, when hotels like the 19th century Ch?teau de la Messardi?re offer palatial rooms at almost half the peak-season rate.

Packed into each Longevinex capsule is an active ingredient roughly equivalent to between 5 and 15 glasses of red wine or unfermented grape juice.

...needs new? Of the 16 musicals now playing in midtown Manhattan theaters, three are set in the 1920s ("Cabaret," "Chicago, "Thoroughly Modern Millie"), three in the 1930s ("42nd Street," "Oklahoma!", "The Boys from Syracuse"), and three, mon Dieu!, in 18th or 19th century France ("Beauty and the Beast," "Les Mis?rables," "The Phantom of the Opera"). Broadway tourists can visit ancient Egypt ("Aida) or Fairy Tale Land ("Into the Woods").
