...normally unsung, it is a pleasure to acknowledge the contributions of our art director, Michelle Turcs?nyi, and production manager, Gemma Maloney. It's all very well for our writers and photographers to return from afar with their dazzling jumble of words and pictures. But it is Turcs?nyi's flair and expertise that marry them in coherent, eye-pleasing fashion, while the unflappable Maloney, besieged by creative chaos, ensures that this and every other issue of Time meet not just the highest standards of magazine quality but their many tight deadlines. Michelle and Gemma both perform their roles with great good...
...steaks and to trade in their 18-hour workdays for 6-hour party nights. The Good Life, they’ve recently been told (by the likes of New York Magazine and USA Today—“It has a European air and a Latin flair,” one article exclaimed, along with “Girls in bikinis!”) is available in Buenos Aires for a mere pittance, a fraction of what it costs just to scrape by in the Big Apple. $1000 per month, more or less, for rent, fine dining, entertainment, shopping...

In more than 40 books and countless essays over the past half-century, she has marshaled reportorial insight and literary flair to describe nearly every interesting place on the planet. Unique among them is Hav, the microscopic, Levantine city-state she first put on the map 21 years ago with [an error occurred while processing this directive] Last Letters from Hav - and which she revisits in her latest, perhaps most insightful...
...that stable, with an added plus: Fulham's owner Mohamed al Fayed will place Airness products in another asset he owns - Harrods, the London department store. Such coups have enabled Koné to build Airness into France's largest-selling domestic sportswear brand. Relying on his intelligence, busi-ness flair and never-say-die attitude, Koné is an all-too-rare success story: a young black man from the kind of blighted, unemployment-racked French suburban housing projects that erupted in riots last year. In addition to being one of the brightest lights to have come from the banlieues...
