he rst day Customer Service Repre-
sentative Alex Cedeno showed up to
work loading baggage at Houstons
George Bush Intercontinental Airport nine
years ago, the name on his uniform read
Prey Boy. Supervisor Kathy Colvin told
him, Were going to be professional here.
So he got new uniforms and has been a
model employee ever since.
Colvins anecdote succinctly sums up a
career with the airline that began as a part-
time job when Cedeno was 22, and studied
business management at the University of
Houston. That job has since carried him
beyond the ramp into the training depart-
ment where he teaches new co-workers
the art of turning planes.
He sees that arthandling all the
ground-service responsibilities from the
moment a plane taxis in to the gate until
it taxis out againas critical not only to
customer experience, but to developing
customer service in his trainees. The ramp
is a great place to start because you really
learn to understand the customer-service
aspect. When you work a flight on the
ramp, you know you have played an inte-
gral part of a customers trip. Then when
you move to other areas of the company,
you see how that service plays out.
Cedeno spends about half his time
teaching and half his time on the ramp,
demonstrating what he taught. Theres
a lot of dierent positions, and everyone
out here has to know how to do every one
of those jobs, he explains. We emphasize
proper safetytake your time, dont rush.
When a flight comes in, we have a mar-
shaller and two wing walkers, who walk
along the wing as an extra set of eyes.
As soon as the plane blocks in, we park
it, download it, then we upload it right
away, he says, referring to the extensive
work ramp service personnel perform in
transitioning an aircra from its arriving
to its next departing flight. And out it
goes.
He says attention to detail forms an
integral part of the job. We have a saying,
touch the bag, read the tag. And that is
one of the key phrases we have for some-
one in training. If we have a bag going to
a destination, we make sure its the right
destination, right gate, right plane.
Every plane type is dierent and so is
the way it must be handled. For the bulk
of planes United ies, Boeing 737s, turning
them requires four agents who load up to
6,000 pounds of baggage, mail and freight.
Boeing 777s require ve agents who may
load ten times moreup to 60,000 pounds
of baggage and freight that goes into
containers that are then loaded onto the
aircra. As many as 250 to 350 ramp agents
work daily in the various areas of the air-
port on United and United Express ights.
Some days, I dont even want to go
home because Im having so much fun
at work, Cedeno says. Every day is a dif-
ferent day. We dont know if we will have
heavy ights or light ights. Some days, we
have challenges with Air Tra c Control or
the weather. With the heat from the con-
crete and the jet blast, sometimes it feels
like 110 degrees. But aer a while, you get
used to it. Plus you get a really nice tan.
Cedenos father, whos also named Alex,
has worked on the ramp in Houston for
19 years and was the one who convinced
him to apply for the position. My father
had said it was a wonderful place to work.
He loves every part of his job. I jumped
onboard and have loved it from day one.
And, according to Colvin, the job and
Cedenos co-workers love him right back,
New hires take the time to send me leers
about how much they appreciate him. He
does it by the book all the time every time.
We want our agents to leave with the same
ten ngers and toes they came with and to
go home safely to their families. He models
that every day.
Ramped Up
For one Houston employee, working at the airport is about
much, much more than just servicing airplanes.

YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED SOMETHING a lile
dierent about customer service represen-
tative Alex Cedeno (Voices, page 12) and his
co-workerstheyre wearing new uniforms.
Since June, tens of thousands of United
employees have been sporting a whole new
looktailored, professional and United.
If you look closely, you ll see many of the
destinations we y on some of their scarves
and neckties.
Designing a uniform that looks good,
feels good and performs well is no small
feat. Throughout the design process, United
employees shared their opinions, even cast-
ing votes for their dresses, scarves and ties.
Then, wear testers made sure the uniforms
held up to the bending, stretching and liing
that United people do every day.
We trimmed here, tucked there, and ended
up with a core wardrobe of blazers, trousers,
shorts and skirts, along with optional sweat-
ers, vests and dresses that give co-workers
plenty of choices in what they wear to work.
Later this year, our pilots will begin wear-
ing new midnight blue uniforms with gold
accentsincluding gold buons that feature
the United logo.
These uniforms arent just clothing
theyre an important part of the look of
thousands of aviation professionalsa mod-
ern look on a runway (and ramp, gate, counter
and airplane) near you. GAIL POLZIN
ASK THE
PILOT
With Captain
Mike Bowers
Q: When you are
ying at 35,000 feet,
how far can we see
on a clear day? What
about at 40,000? At
30,000?
A: There are many
factors that afect the
visible distance to
the horizon, including
the curvature of the
earth and the efects
of atmospheric
refraction. To simplify
the answer: if we only
consider the earths
curvature, the formula
for distance in miles
is 1.22 x the square
root of the height of
the aircraft in feet. I
wont make you do
the math: At 10,000
feet, you can see 122
miles. At 30,000 feet,
visibility can be 211
miles; at 40,000 feet,
you can see 244 miles.
Of course, if you look
above the horizon,
you can see the sun at
93,000,000 miles and
light years to the stars.
Do you have a question
for Captain Bowers?
You can write to him at

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND THE WORLD
HEMISPHERESMAGAZINE.COM AUGUST 2013 ILLUSTRATION BY MIKE LEMANSKI 17
DISPATCHES
CANT GET THERE FROM HERE
THE (SOMETIMES) FICTIONAL WORLD OF CARTOGRAPHY
There was a time, not long ago, when people
navigated the world by way of sheets of paper
paerned with squiggly lines. These guides, while
useful, werent always as straightforward as they
seemed. For centuries, cartographers have moved,
misnamed or made up streets, largely for the
purpose of catching those who reprinted the maps
as their own. While the odd trap street still crops
up, the practice has mostly gone the way of those
fraught, wind-blown origami sessions that used to
be commonplace around tourist landmarks, now
replaced with smartphones. Here, a few examples
of the dying art of trap streets.
JAMES BARTLETT
A 1988 San Diego County map
at the Los Angeles Public Library
features the nonexistent Entrada
Road, Saddlewood Court, Prairie
Drive and Grasslands Court.
A 1978 map of Michigan
included the ctional towns of
Beatosu and Goblu (in Ohio),
allegedly a tribute to the regions
rival college football teams.
A 1970s map of Syracuse,
New York, had a never-
constructed Gould Street
possibly named after a local
geographer and mapmaker.
On a 1982 map of metro
Chicago, the ctional suburb of
Westdale appearedand didnt
disappear until 1986.
A modern road map for
Athens, Greece, still has
a warning about trap
streets on its front cover.
A Tele Atlas digital map still
lists an Oxygen Street in
Edinburgh; the same goes for
Galgenpfad (Gallows Path)
in Bonn, Germany.
Google Maps removed a south
London road that ran through
streets, houses and a depart-
ment store from Clapham
Junction to Clapham Common.
The London A-Z, the most
authoritative and comprehensive
London guide in history, was
reported to have more than 100
trap streets in its pages by the
mid-2000s.

18 ILLUSTRATIONS BY PETER OUMANSKI AUGUST 2013 HEMISPHERESMAGAZINE.COM
AT THE ENTRYWAY of a man-
sion in Jerusalem, 21-year-old Titi
Aynaw steps gingerly from a car,
tottering slightly in 6-inch heels. She
smoothes her black lace gown and
pats her hair, which is woven into an
elaborate bun atop her head. Before
her, chattering in the moonlight,
stand some of the most powerful
men and women in Israel.
Aynaw has only recently com-
pleted her service as a lieutenant in
the Israeli Defense Forces, so its a
shock when Benny Gantz, the IDF
chief of staf, saunters up to her and
smiles. Shalom, he says.
Like we are two friends at a bar,
she marvels afterward. Is this really
happening? Seriously, where am I?
Born in Ethiopia, Aynaw came
to Israel at age 12 after her mother
died. (Her father had died a decade
earlier.) She was raised by her grand-
parents, and though a high achiever
in school, she was not prepared for
the trajectory her life would take this
year after she became the rst black
woman to win the title of Miss Israel.
Aynaw often describes her
journey as a Cinderella story, but she
seems to be having dif culty with
the bit where she goes to the ball.
She is here tonight at the personal
invitation of Israeli President Shimon
Peres, and will dine with dignitaries
including Barack Obama. She spots
the U.S. president through the
crowdwith the extra height her
heels add to her nearly 6-foot-tall
frame, she towers above everyone
and her lovely face looks stricken.
When should I walk up to him?
she asks, taking a few deep breaths.
I have to at least say hello.
As the banquet commences,
Aynaw picks at the rst and
second courses, waiting for the
right moment. Then, just before
dessert, Peres brings the president
to her. This is our beauty queen,
our modern Queen of Sheba, the
89-year-old statesman tells Obama.
You really are beautiful, Obama
says, and very tall!
Later, Aynaw will gushingly
describe the president as a world-
class hunk. But right now, she is at a
loss for words, staring into a plate of
fruit and dark chocolate that, for the
remainder of the evening, will
go untouched.

PI CONTEST
COMPETITORS DO A NUMBER ON
A BRAINY WEEKEND FESTIVAL
MOSCOW Its Saturday aernoon, and
a line of newlyweds snakes along the
Moscow River. The couples are giddy
with passion, but also with vodka,
procured from nearby kiosks, which are
also doing a brisk trade in padlocks.
This weekly matrimonial gathering
sprung up about seven years ago, when
couples started to appear and declare the
permanence of their love by clamping
brightly painted padlocks to a cluster of
metal trees, then tossing the keys into
the river. The steel forest, says Moscow
Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, now rivals the
Kremlin as a local araction.
These aairs end up with almost as
many empty boles soaring into the
river as keys. According to a local named
Natalya, the bole-throwing is part of
the ritual. The women are the ones
who smash them into the river, she
says, so when the men try to retrieve
the keys to leave us, they get cut!

Would you like to know my
theory? the sockless man with
the gray mane and German accent
asks his fellow passengers. If I sit
on a park bench with a pretty girl
for an hour, it seems like a minute.
If I sit on a hot stove for a minute,
it feels like an hour. Beat. Its
all relative!
Nobody on the train seems

Puing a citys half-eaten
french fries to good use
Wearing rubber gloves and heavy boots,
Adam Williams hops o the back of
an old garbage truck in downtown
Portsmouth. Within seconds, he and
his fellow haul dawg, Wes LeFevre,
are rooting through a barrel lled
with mussel and lobster shells,
and mashed up french fries.
Id stand back,
LeFevre says drily,
tipping the contents
of the barrel into the
belly of the truck.
The duos boss,
Rian Bedard, sips
coee from a Mason jar and looks on
from beneath the brim of a trucker hat.
Last night, this stu would have been
siing preily on plates in Portsmouths
most popular restaurants. Now, its a
steaming, stinking wet pile that beckons
the neighborhoods ies.
This job isnt pleasant, but its for
a good cause. Mr. Fox
Composting (formerly
EcoMovement Con-
sulting and Hauling),
Bedards company,
collects organic
waste for compostinga
novel idea in these parts when
he started the enterprise back
in 2009, but something now in
great demand. Bedards men
currently collect upward of 40
tons of waste a week from
about 250 clients, delivering the muck to
local compost facilities.
As worthy as his enterprise may
be, Bedard is a businessman, and his
interest in repurposing food scraps goes
beyond helping the planet. As he puts it,
Mr. Fox is founded on the premise that
you can do good and make money.
In the early days, the operation
was relatively low-keyso much so
that garbage trucks were seen as an
unnecessary extravagance, Bedard says.
We picked up every single bag by hand
and threw it into the back of a trailer.
That was disgusting.
A moment later, the Mr. Fox truck
lurches forward, heading for the next
stop of the morning: a local juicery.
Their trash is nice, Williams says
with a smile. Smells like carrots all day.
ALEXANDRA PECCI
The highlight of Geek Freak Week-
end is a contest in which people vie
to rattle of from memory the most
digits in the value of pi. One of this
years contenders is 14-year-old
Juliette van Schaik, who takes the
stage and begins a monologue that
could, in theory, go on forever.
Each of the pi reciters has a style.
Some speak rhythmically, some
adopt a more free-form approach,
and some simply mutter.
Van Schaik spouts her numbers
condently into a mike shes clutch-
ing with nails painted specially for
the occasion: blue with a white pi
symbol on the ring nger.
After uttering 4,300 digits, van
Schaik of cially becomes the ninth-
best pi reciter in North America.
Thats enough to earn her a small
bow from reigning champion
Marc Umile, who has 15,000-plus
digits to his name.
By senior year, van Schaik says,
pointing at her departing hero, Im
going to beat that guy.

In the run-up to the Teen Choice Awards in L.A. on August 11,
more than 100 million adolescents will cast votes for their
favorite actors, musicians, athletes and sundry hoies,
allowing us a glimpse into the hearts and minds of an
otherwise unfathomable sector of society. But theres only
so much a democratically elected teen idol can tell us. To
beer understand the mind of Gen Z, weve compiled a
few numbers of our own.
AGE IS BUT A NUMBER UNDERSTANDING THE MIND OF A TEENAGER, STAT BY STAT
Any day is a good day for bath-
ing in the Ganges, says Pandit
Ramanah, smiling as he adjusts a
white cloth over his yellow sweater.
Ramanah is in his 40s, though
his thick hair shows no signs of
graying. A priest from Varanasi, one
of Indias holiest cities, he is here
today as part of his job.
We are outside Allahabad, the
venue for Kumbh Mela, a Hindu
festival so large that its reportedly
visible from space. More than 100
million souls are expected to attend
the 55-day event this year, with the
aim of washing away the sins of
past lifetimes.
To accommodate the devotees,
a temporary city has been erected,
complete with running water,
electricity and police. A driver creeps
through the shambles of lean-tos,
stalls and electric om signs on
his way to the ferry that will take
Ramanah to the spot where the
Ganges and the Yamuna and the
mythical Saraswati rivers meet.
Ramanah waits patiently for his
turn before jumping into the murky
water, where he remains for a good
half hour, much longer than needed
for the requisite three dunks. The
driver waits nearby, ready to take
him to the next stop on his list: an
appearance by Swami Swaroo-
panand Saraswati, one of the holiest
men in India.
On the way, Ramanah sings
ancient mantras. He is excited
about seeing the swamiand
even more so when, upon arriving at
the holy mans tent, hes rewarded
with a seat right next to him. The
two men do not talk as devotees
rush to touch the swamis feet. The
swami yawns. He takes a phone call.
Then, abruptly, Ramanahs audience
is over.
Now this, the priest says,
beaming broadly as he is practically
pushed from the tent, is an auspi-
cious day. LISA KIRCHNER

Another Seventeen

found that teenage

$450 on a limousine.
According to a study from the
publication Seventeen, some
27 percent of girls would break
up with their boyfriends for a
one-time payment of $10,000.
Research from
Pew found that
22 percent of
teenage social

A 2011 survey by

by their parents, for
reasons that include
over-enthusiastic
dancing at family
celebrations.
According to a report this year
from Food Facts, kids aged
between 12 and 19 down an
average of 22 ounces of soda a
day, or about 500 pints a year.
A recent American

The fact that you can make some-

back at the slasher franchise he
calls the ultimate campre story.
Narrated by Corey Feldman, who
evaded Jasons wrath in the fourth
installment, the new documen-
tary aims to convey the idea that
Friday the 13th represents more
than a celebration of gore. These
kinds of stories have been around

ACCORDING TO THE LAWS of human
achievement, there are people who go
into space and there are people who star
in Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals, with
absolutely no crossover. In the not-too-
distant future, however, British soprano
Sarah Brightman will break that rule in a
very high-prole way.
Brightman, who played the rst
Christine in The Phantom of the Opera,
is the subject of a PBS special this month,
Sarah Brightman: Dreamchaser in
Concert, based on the tour to promote
her album of the same name. That album, in turn, was inspired by the rather unusual
mission Brightman is set to undertake in 2015:
becoming the rst recording artist to visit
the International Space Station.
Ive been interested in making a journey to
space since I was a lile girl, aer seeing the
rst man walk on the moon, she says. The
fact that scientists, engineers and
astronauts did thatI felt I could
do anything.
The singer has a long history with
space travel. She can recall watching
the 1969 Moon landing, she says, an
event that not only led to her campy
1978 hit (I Lost My Heart to a) Starship
Trooper, but which gave her the idea
that she, too, might like to climb aboard a
rocket ship one day. Now, as her launch date
approaches, Brightman is starting to see
things in a less dream-like way.
Jumping o a planet is not that easy, in
psychological terms, she says. You have to be
very certain that you really want to do this.
In spite of her grueling astronaut training
regimen, Brightman is continuing to tour,
performing pieces from Dreamchaser.
JACQUELINE DETWILER
SARAH BRIGHTMAN: DREAMCHASER IN CONCERT
AIRS ON AUG. 3
Sarah Brightman on
Space travel and the arts: There is so
much poetry about the Moon and Mars.
A lot of music and photography are also
inuenced by the stars and everything
that has been happening up there.
Astronaut training: You are put
into situations where you
could be claustrophobic,
continually sick. The
rotating chair test
was one of the most
challenging. It tests
you for how you
deal with motion
sickness over a
long period
of time.
Stargazing: It calms
me down completely,
because its always there
and twinkling at you and
suggesting that whatever
your smaller problems
are, there is a much bigger
picture. I always look at the
stars when I am feeling a
bit vulnerable.

FOOD & DRINK
EVER HEARD OF QUANDONGS? No? Dont worry,
youre not the only foodie unfamiliar with the
bright red drupe fruits, which rarely make it out
of the Australian bush and onto the menus of
ne-dining establishments. But Ben Shewry is
changing all that.
The 36-year-old chef uses quandongs and
other foods and techniques traditionally used
by Australian Aborigines at his Melbourne
restaurant, Aica, which recently appeared on
San Pellegrinos Worlds 50 Best Restaurants list
for the rst time. The honor has helped make the
eatery one of the most di cult reservations to
get in Australia, and is aiding Shewry in his quest
to bring a monumental shi in the Aussie food
psyche back toward the cuisine of the bush.
Colloquially called bush tucker, indigenous
Australian food spent decades in a state of
culinary neglect. There are something like 2,500
native plants eaten by indigenous people that
no one was using, Shewry says. Now, with the
growing popularity of his
innovative dishes, plants
like saltbush (a salty gray-
blue shrub) and muntrie
berries (tiny clustered
fruits that look like min-
iature crab apples) are becoming chef favorites.
Shewry, for his part, has been cooking with bush
ingredients since he opened Aica in 2006. These
ingredients are uniquely Australian, but few
Australians have really ever tasted them, he says.
As for traditional techniques, to make his King
George whiting with buer-infused oyster meat
and green tomato juice, Shewry wraps the mix-
ture in paperbark and slow-grills it over charcoal.
In a nod to his own Kiwi heritage, he serves slices
of rare wallaby with a potato thats been cooked
in a traditional Maori hangi (a large, recently dug
pit lled with hot rocks) then mixed with fromage
blanc, crunchy bits of dried saltbush, cured trout,
charred coconut husk ash and coee grounds for
a dish charmingly called A Simple Dish of Potato
Cooked in the Earth It Was Grown.

DRINKING LIKE A LOCAL
Four Seasons bartenders create supremely
signature libations BY CLAIRE OLIVER
With their 100 Mile Cocktail campaign, run-
ning through this month, Four Seasons Hotels
and Resorts has tasked its bartenders with
creating drinks that embody the spirit of their
respective locales. The catch? They can only
use ingredients found within 100 miles. For
instance, the Chicago Four
Seasons uses the white
of a local farm egg to
replicate the froth
on Lake Michigan.
In Beijing, senior
bartender Elvis
Zhao uses
erguotou, a
sorghum-
based Chinese
liquor, to
create his take
on the citys
lanterns. Here,
he explains how
to make it.

While the use
of nati ve Austral i an
ingredients is gaining in
momentum, the move-
ment remains slightly controversiala
number of organizations have sprung up to
raise awareness of the cultural issues sur-
rounding the new trend.
Aborigine communities are very concerned
with keeping ownership of the industry,
says Jodie Ahrens, co-founder of the Austra-
lian Future Foods Lab, which holds regular
workshops, lectures and dinners. She says
shed prefer that bush tucker reach a broader
audience than just one with deep pockets and
the wherewithal to make reservations months
in advance.
When I can go to a football match and
enjoy a kangaroo meat pie with a bush tomato
sauce, she says, then Ill know native foods
have been properly assimilated.

NICE STEMS
A Chicago chef has a way
with weeds
What with top chefs from all
over the world running around
in their whites plucking mush-
rooms from the undersides of
logs, a chef using an of-the-wall
plant in a dish here and there is
nothing new. But the herbs Chef
Curtis Dufy sprinkles liberally
across his nine-course tasting
menu at Grace Restaurant
in Chicago are a little more
extreme than that. Uncon-
strained by the traditional
denition of food, Dufy
includes everything from
dandelions to miners lettuce as
featured ingredients.
Theres a practical reason
for this: Dufys cooking style
is clean and light, relying very
SHELL CUE YOU IN
A 2-star Michelin chef on how
to make an (almost) veggie
burger, and other niy tricks
DOMINIQUE CRENN MAY HAVE earned Atelier
Crenn, her San Francisco eatery, two Michelin
stars in the 2013 guidemaking her the rst
female chef in America to accomplish such
a featbut that doesnt make her too high-
falutin for a backyard barbecue. Though most
of her dishes look like they could have been
assembled with tweezers, she created a veggie
burger for a special event that even a carnivore
could love.
To make it, Crenn substituted Japanese
eggplant for meat, then coated the steak-like
vegetabledry-cured with salt, sugar and
spicesin lard before slow-cooking it for
hours, so the fat infused into it. Crenn then
brushed the pay with a house-made barbe-
cue sauce and served it with Mimolee cheese,
dehydrated tomato, onion and kale on the side.
Another tip Crenn shares is taking a novel
approach to whatever produce you have on
hand. If you have tomatoes, for instance, she
suggests frying or poaching. Or, beer yet: You
can juice the tomatoes and then simmer the
juice on the stove, separating the water and
the impurities, she says. Then put it through
a coee lter and you end up with this really
beautiful liquid thats transparent, like white
wine. Refrigerate and serve. Its delicious!
But in all maers of gastro endeavor, Crenn
says whats most important is balance: You
have to have sweetness, saltiness, crunchiness
this is when things start coming together.

CHESSINGTON WORLD
OF ADVENTURES RESORT HOTEL
BACKSTORY: Founded in 1931 by
ex-military man and hobby zoologist
Reginald Goddard on the grounds of an
ancient country house in the southwest
extremes of Greater London, the lovably
eccentric Chessington Zoo is now part of
Merlin Entertainments (Madame Tussauds,
London Eye, etc.) and has been transformed
into a swish resort theme park (renamed
Chessington World of Adventures), mean-
ing the monkeys and lions have been joined
by frenetic rides and a 4-star hotel.
DESIGN NOTES: Leave your critical
eye at homethis place is set up for
the kids, with live lizards in the lobby and a
large faux girae standing sentinel outside
the Zafari Bar & Grill (with its animal-print
seat covers and Tanzanian Fish Curry).
Beyond the painted-on wildlife and
Madagascar-suited performers, the hotel
is a fairly standard mid-level property, but
its easy to forget this fact when youre
surrounded by painted-on wildlife and
Madagascar-suited performers.
ROOM WITH A VIEW: The themed
rooms here have cute murals depict-
ing scenes from the African savannah (a
mini safari indoors), but to get the full
experience youll need a Wanyama view
room, which looks out over real-life zebras,
giraes, ostriches and antelopes mingling
peacefully in a lion-free English eld. Its a
lovely view, but also a bit weird when you
stop to think about itthe kids, for their
part, will be too busy shouting Girae! to
contemplate the incongruities.

DESIGN NOTES: First opened in 1929, The Wigwam represents an early stab at
combining traditional Southwestern architecture with luxe hospitality. The
grounds are also doed with palm trees and low-lying adobe-style structures,
and the interior maintains the rustic elegance that would have appealed to the
wealthy ranchers of old. The resort underwent a $7 million renovation in 2011.
IDEAL GUEST: The obvious choice is the inveterate golfer: The resort is oriented
around three 18-hole courses, two of which were designed by Robert Trent
Jones, Sr. However, its multiple swimming pools, outdoor plaza, illuminated
tennis courts and Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa should be enough to occupy
anyone who doesnt own a set of clubs.
HOT DISH: The agship eatery here, Litchelds, does the farm-to-table, artisanal
thing well, with dishes like Cedar River Arizona ribeye, but theres also some-
thing to be said for retiring to a poolside table with a plate of mini-Reubens on
pretzel buns and a Lagunitas IPA, the scents of rose and citrus on the breeze.
WHAT YOULL FIND JUST OUTSIDE: Golf courses, naturally, but also 440 acres
of botanical marvels, with palms, greenscapes and snaking, rose-lined walk-
ing paths throughout. Taking pride in providing a multisensory experience,
the Wigwam snubs its nose at the arid Arizona desertscape that surrounds
it; even in the winter months the gardens here have a sense of romantic,
loamy abundance.
BACKSTORY: Back in 1904, this beaux arts hotel on Manhat-
tans Madison Avenue was called The Hotel Seville because
the original owner loved the Spanish city. According to legend,
Harpo Marx once worked as a bellboy here and based several
skits on his experiences. The Seville was overhauled twice in
the mid-1980s, receiving its new name, The Carlton, in 1987.
DESIGN NOTES: The Carlton recently underwent a transfor-
mation at the hands of the Rockwell Group, the architecture
rm behind the set for Cyndi Laupers Broadway show Kinky
Boots and Cirque du Soleils venue at Walt Disney World.
Signature additions include a restored Tiany-style stained-
glass skylight and a vintage bar that was once a favorite of
Frank Sinatras.
WHATS NEW: Late last year, ve themed suites were added
to the hotel. These include two penthousesa Corner
Pocket Suite with a 1950s Brunswick Centennial pool table
and a New Yorker Suite with framed magazine covers of
its namesakeand three specialty suites, which include a
Broadway Diva Suite, a Terrace Suite and a Speakeasy Suite
with a secret bar room and poker table concealed behind a
faux bookcase.
SIGNATURE DRINK: In keeping with Bar Millies Parisian
salon theme, each drink is named for a famous French
gure. The Coco Chanelpear vodka, elderower
liqueur, lemon juice and proseccopairs best
with oysters from the seafood bar. Watch out
for the Marquis de SadeJim Beam Devils

and renovated in 2009,
this former captains

Hotelscomprises 16 houses named for the
islands winds. The residences at the boom,
Skiron Houses, originally hosted the bishop and
nuns who maintained Santorinis cathedral, the
postcard-worthy white bell tower of which is
right next door.
ROOM WITH A VIEW: Like many traditional
homes on Santorini, Aigialos is built into the
side of the 980-foot caldera cli, with buildings
jumbled on top of one another. At the apex,
youll nd the sun-bleached Voreas House,
which boasts stunning sea views.
WHAT YOULL FIND RIGHT OUTSIDE: The town
of Fira, where the hotel is located, has a maze of
rambling cliside alleys that are great for stroll-
ing around. A short, madcap bus ride will take
you to the town of Oia, which has lovely spots
to watch the sunset. The island is also speckled
with wineries, which are worth a tipsy day out.
HOT DISH: Famed Greek-American chef Marisa
Churchill heads up the kitchen at Aigialos,
which delivers dishes like crispy tomato ke-
edes and braised lamb shank to your terrace, so
you dont have to take your eyes o the view for
even a second (watch out for the steak knives).
Make sure to try the Assyrtiko wine, a mineral-y
white made from local grapes.

CLAIM TO FAME: With the opening of the JW Marrio Marquis in
February, Dubai added a superlative to its quiver: worlds tallest
hotel. This 5-star property comprises two 72-story towers that
stand 1,164 feet tall and are designed to look like date palm trees.
BEST PLACE TO HANG OUT: La Farine Caf, just o the lobby, has
247 mirrors on the wallspossibly to indicate that its open 24
hours a day, seven days a week. From its mood-lit banquee area to
its brightly lit atrium, La Farine is a perfect place to grab a pastry,
sip on a caf au lait and observe the endless parade of well-heeled
humanity. It also claims to serve the best bread in Dubai.
HOT DISH: The hotel has nine restaurants, but Rang Mahal is the
draw, as its chef, Atul Kochhar, is the rst Indian ever to earn a
Michelin star. On the fourth oor, the restaurant serves exotic
Indian cuisine with a modern twist. Its hard to go wrong on this
menu, but the highlight is lamb chops served in fennel and a
Tellicherry pepper marinade.
AMAZING AMENITIES: Marrio shipped in three tons of Dead Sea
salt for the Saray Spa and Health Clubs Dead Sea Journey. The
two-hour treatment includes a salt scrub and the application of a
body mask of Dead Sea mud, followed by a healing bath infused
with Dead Sea minerals. All of which puts a fresh spin on the term

three hours from the pass, ensconced in
a suite at the palatial Fairmont Empress
Hotel in Victoria. Linda suggests renting
her own car and meeting me at the start of
the PRH in Nanaimothe idea being that
I can take my time poking around in the
shing villages and provincial parks that
line the oyster-encrusted east coast, and we
can still navigate the pass before sundown.
In apology for her lateness, Linda will bring
the Corn Nuts.
Its a testament to the car Im test-driving,
the Audi Allroad, that Im not particularly
concerned whether we make it to the pass
before dark. With all-wheel drive, stainless
steel front and rear skid plates and 18-inch
wheels, the Allroad is designed to handle
nearly any weather or road situation, from
pavement to gravel to steep, wet, lakeside
mountain pass. A luxury crossover, the
Allroad is like the progeny of a Jeep and
a Town Car. It passes quickly on narrow
roadszipping from zero to 60 in 6.5
secondsand has the first-ever Google
Earthenabled navigation system and a
soundtrack courtesy of Bang & Olufsen.
Its possibly the best thing a person could
be driving when a road trip goes wrong.
Plan established and the sun already
past its apex, I sele into the leather sport
seat and streak up pine-scented Route 1
toward Nanaimo. With hours to spare, I
peel o the freeway at the sight of every
brown provincial park sign, endeavoring
to spot eagles in the trees and scouring the
rivers for salmon bones from last years
spawning. By the time I reach the pictur-
esque fishing town of Cowichan Bay, its
well past lunchtime. I stop in at the Rock
Cod Caf, where a preternaturally friendly
waitress recommends Pacic halibut tacos
with mango-habanero salsa and cilantro.
I happily consume the tacos while
watching weathered fishing boats from
the deck. As it often goes in the friendly
Great White North, the diner seated at the
next table over asks where Im headed.
Tono, I say. Going surng. He looks at
his watch. Hope youve got a jeep, he says.
Back in the car, I re up the nav system
and drive straight for Nanaimo and my
wayward friend, who appears just where
shes expected. Together we ditch her
rental car, load her bags into the Allroads
colossal hatchback and coast west through
Cathedral Grovea stand of mossy old-
growth Douglas rs. As the sun sets ahead
of us, slanting radially through the trunks,
it becomes clear theres no way well make
the pass before dark.
Luckily, the nav system displays the
terrain that we cant see as we hurtle over
and by it. Seven inches of ground clear-
ance and xenon headlights keep us clear
of obstacles that would otherwise make
our ride go bump in the night. We spend
surprisingly lile time fearing for our lives,
though there are more than a few gasps and
white-knuckled wheel twists as our head-
lights illuminate a precarious edge over a
lake or another car barrelling toward us.
Eventually we descend through heavy
cedar woods and emerge in front of
the glowing hand-adzed portico of the
Wickaninnish Inn. The front desk aen-
dant informs us that our room, a rustic
affair with driftwood furniture, picture
window and roaring replace, is ready, but
that the only food to be had around these
parts is at a late-night spot several miles
up the beach, and it will only be open for
another hour or so.
We hustle back to the car and lead-foot
it to a trendy pan-Asian seafood joint on
a onetime logging road. When we reach
it, just an hour before midnight, the tiki
torches are still lit, so we order a couple of
veggie and rice bowls with wild salmon, and
then play a few rounds of hangman with
the bartender before returning to the inn
for the night.
At dawn, Wickaninnishs appeal becomes
even more apparent. Through our enor-
mous window is a desolate and windswept
beach doed in driwood and baered by
frothy gray waves. These waves are con-
sistent and much loved, but nearly always
cold. We load into the Allroad in wetsuits

2013 AUDI ALLROAD
THE BELLS AND WHISTLES
and follow a guide from Surf Sister down
an unpaved road to Long Beach. There
is a brief period of carrying surfboards
through the forest before we come upon
the waves, which break sleek and regular
on a spun-out stretch of sand. We catch a
few and splash around, excited to be surng
among pines.
Of course, as these things go, its at this
point that our luck nally fails. Our guide
had warned us that the waves here, though
consistent and easy to catch, break straight
ahead, oen pitching suroards straight
into heads. As Id been so worried about
the pass that Id spent exactly none of my
time thinking about the menace of surng,
I wipe out and my board hits me square in
the face, giving me a black eye.
We find refuge in the heated seats of
the Allroad, and soon warm up enough
to use the cars Wi-Fi hotspot and Lindas
iPhone to locate a store where we can buy
Band-Aids and Advil. These cures pale in
comparison to the bole of Canadian pinot
noir we happily procure at The Pointe
Restaurant back at the inn.
As we sit at the bar, sipping and taking
pictures of my ridiculous face, the sta and
the other guests stop by, excited to hear our
tale of vacation gone ever so slightly wrong.
They share their own storiesand every-
one seems to have one, including a guest
who once had to abandon a car in a desert.
Dont worry, he tells us, it wasnt anything
as nice as what youre driving.
Hemispheres senior editor JACQUELINE
DETWILER told so many pirate stories about
her black eye that there may still be Canadian
children searching for her cache of gold.
ROAD TRIP
BOARDING PASS Surfs up! United
can take you to Victoria, Canada, with
nonstop United Express regional jet
service from San Francisco. Before your
trip, download Uniteds mobile app for
iPhone, Android, Windows Phone 8 and
Blackberry 10 devices. Its your go-to
app when youre on the go. To book your
tickets, go to united.com.
PERKS: Its spectacularly
dif cult to get lost with Audi
Connects mobile Wi-Fi hotspot
and Google Earth navigation
system, but if you do, you can
use the voice search feature to
search for information about
weather or local destinations.
Failing that, you can always
sit back in the eight-way
power seats, open the sunroof,
listen to the 14-speaker
Bang & Olufsen Sound
System and wait for AAA.
STARTING PRICE: $39,600
PERFORMANCE: With 7.1 inches of ground
clearance, the Allroad can swoop 1.5 inches
closer to rocks than its cousin the A4 Avant.
Its also half an inch wider, which provides
for more stability. Quattro all-wheel drive,
18-inch wheels (with the option of 19-inchers)
and adaptive cruise control that maintains an
even distance from the car ahead make for an
incredibly calm ride.
DRIVETRAIN: A 2.0-liter TFSI four-cylinder
engine and fuel-ef cient eight-speed Tiptronic
transmission provide 211 horsepower and 258
lb-feet of torque. The resulting rough-and-
tumble crossover can go from zero to 60 mph
in 6.5 seconds.

Now as colorful as its snapshots, Fujilms Instax Mini 8 is the life of the party
BY JACQUELINE DETWILER
Its like its 1983! shouted one of our o ce testers when the rst instant photo popped out of the powder-blue Instax Mini 8 and
started the hazy process of developing. Colors intensied, shapes appeared anddespite the dozen or so smartphones distributed
throughout the rooma crowd gathered around the photo. This, of course, was always the appeal of the Polaroid camera, whose
maker ceased producing instant lm in 2008 before fans rallied to bring it back. Fujilm capitalized on that brief opening in the
market, launching the Instax line in 2008 in the U.S. Now, its capitalizing on the social appeal of instant photography with mini
cameras in pastels that are perfect for weddings, vacations and, of course, retro theme parties. $100 / amazon.com

wear in ... San Francisco
ON HIS SAN FRANCISCO STYLE:
Grounded in the traditional but
with a bit of an edge.
ON THE CHANGING STYLES OF THE CITYS
TECH WORKERS: As companies have
moved up to SF, Ive found that more
tech people are spending time and
money on how they look and dress.
I think if you go down to Google [in
Mountain View, CA,] its probably a
dierent story.
ON THE PERKS OF BEING A LOCAL CELEBRITY:
Theres a sandwich shop called Ikes
Place that started with an under-the-
radar location; when Yelpers dug it
and it became huge, they expanded
and Ike named a sandwich aer me.
I was going through a vegan phase at
the time, so I think its some kind of
hummus and eggplant combination.
FAVORITE LOCAL CLOTHING BOUTIQUE: The
Archive has a lot of hard-to-nd items.
The last thing I bought there was a
pair of brown leather M.A+ shoes.
Theyre made out of a single piece of
leather, so theres very lile stitching
on them.
BEST PLACE TO BUY ODDITIES: Paxton
Gate really delivers on the weirdness
of San Francisco. Theyve got lots of
taxidermy and framed insects, as well
as really interesting plants, some fun
coee table books, scientic tools and
bones. Its a fun place to explore.
GO-TO RESTAURANT: Spruce is incred-
ibly consistent. Neighborhood-y but
elegant. Their duck breast is denitely
my favorite.
ON HIM: Jacket by Todd Snyder; shirt by
Bespoken; shoes by Fiorentini & Baker;
jeans by Notify; watch by Dior Homme
GUERRERO SHELL GAS
STATION: You gener-
ally don't get harassed
while you're lling up,
even at rush hour, there
are always pumps free.
ROAM ARTISAN
BURGERS: The burger
is soft, the bun quality
is high, and the fries are
addictive.
AMERICAN APPAREL:
Not sure why I had to
wait for so long while
they debated the rela-
tive merits of diferent
knee high socks.
DUCCA: We brought
about 20 people here
for a work-related
lunch. The outdoor patio
was great ... the food left
much to be desired.
SUSHI RAN: They
don't make mistakes
you do. To them, you're
an annuity ... just more
money in the bank.

With deadly wipeouts, big brand sponsorship and billionaire patrons,
Americas Cup is starting to resemble NASCAR
BY JACK CAVANAUGH
IF HAROLD VANDERBILTchampion
yachtsman and great-grandson of the
shipping and railroad tycoon Cornelius
Vanderbiltwere alive to see whats become
of the 162-year-old Americas Cup, which
he defended three times in the 1930s, hed
likely get seasick on his cravat and deck
shoes. The tournamentwhich happens
once every three, four or ve years, and will
kick up wake in the San Francisco Bay next
monthhas come to resemble a soggier
version of NASCAR.
With this years Cup, which runs from Sept.
7 to 21, organizers have gone all out to ramp up
the thrill factor, and thus broaden its appeal.

sportswriter who famously griped
that watching the Cup was like watching
grass grow, would have no such complaints
now. The narrow-beamed monohulled
yachts of old, which topped out at 23 mph,
have been replaced with high-tech, low-
drag hydrofoil catamarans with carbon
fiber hulls and sails emblazoned with
sponsor logos that soar to the heights
of 13-story buildings. These enormous,
multimillion-dollar vessels are capable of
slicing through choppy waters at speeds
approaching 50 mph. To make this years
event a beer t for television, individual
races shouldnt last more than an hour
(they used to last more than three), and
instead of taking place on the open ocean
(as in Cups past, when live spectators had
to charter a boat to watch the action), this
years Cup is taking place in the idyllic envi-
rons of San Francisco Bayclose enough to
shore for spectators to hear crewmembers
voiceswith the TV-ready backdrop of the
Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island and the
Sierra Nevada mountain range in the dis-
tance. And while Vanderbilt was no slouch
when it came to personal wealth, in the
modern era of the Cup, having a billionaire
patron is essentially a prerequisite to entry.
Billionaires egos get to set the criteria
nowadays, says Grant Dalton, the man-
aging director of the Emirates, the New
Zealand entry, which has about a half-
dozen sponsors and still needed nancial
help from the government to make it into
this years event. (Skippers regularly gripe
of costs reaching $100 million.) It is just
ridiculously expensive and out of control.
Larry Ellison, founder of Oracle Team
USA, a sailor himself and one of the worlds
richest men (with an estimated worth of $43
billion), is a prime oender. The 68-year-old
co-founder of soware giant Oracle led the
U.S. to victory (with his bankroll, at least) in
the last Americas Cup, in 2010. According to
competition protocol, this grants him the
right to dictate certain terms for this years
race, which he did by demanding that every
yacht be of the same designthe high-
speed, multihull AC72. This has further
propelled the race into a big-money, highly
professionalized event.
Dennis Conner, the legendary Ameri-
can skipper, is one of many Cup veterans
unhappy with whats become of the race.
I always had amateurs in my boats, and
we raced for the love of the competition and
for our country, but thats not the case any-
more, says Conner, whose Americas Cup
career spanned four decades (1974-2003).
We never paid anyone until 1987, when we
gave members of the crew $300 a month
while we were training in Hawaii. Now they
make millions.
Today, in what some have dubbed The
Mercenary Cup, the U.S. defender has eight G

Of more concern to purists is the ele-
ment of danger that comes with these new
high-speed catamarans, which resemble
the 12-meter monohull wooden yachts
Conner skippered about as much as a Jet
Ski resembles a kayak, but race organizers
seem to encourage the added risk. Many
people connected to the Cup believe that
the prospect of spectacular wipeouts could
ultimately elevate the race to the status of a
truly popular sportwhich could reason-
ably be termed the NASCAR Eect.
There is a risk of boats like this geing
knocked over, says Peter Hogg, former
race chairman of the Bay Area Multihull
Association. And that could add to the
interest. And as Dean Barker, the skipper
of Emirates, puts it: This is the Formula 1 of
sailing ... were denitely pushing the limits.
Pushing the limits indeed. These sleek,
tall, super-fast catamarans have shown a
tendency to capsize in San Francisco Bay,
as Oracle did during a training session last
October, when it cartwheeled into the bay
and was swept four miles past the Golden
Gate Bridge and into the Pacific Ocean.
Fortunately, what injuries occurred were
minor. Then, on May 9, the Swedish entry,
Artemis, was turning downwind on the Bay
when it ipped over, resulting in the death
of a British crewmember who was pinned
beneath the yacht for roughly 10 minutes,
despite the presence of support boats and
divers and the fact that he was equipped
with a crash helmet and oxygen canister,
not to mention the eorts of divers from
accompanying rescue boats.
Those accidents prompted Patrizio
Bertelli, the billionaire owner of both
Prada and the Italian team, Luna Rossa, to
consider dropping out unless stricter safety
rules were put into place.
These are dangerous boats, says Max
Sirena, Luna Rossas skipper. And after
Oracle capsized I said it would not be the
only one. Now it has happened again.
Apparently Artemis also had its doubts
about continuing with its backup boat.
We will only race if our sailing team
believes they are safe racing AC72s, says
Paul Cayard, a veteran American sailor from
San Francisco who is the chief executive
o cer and a tactician for Artemis, which
is sponsored by the Royal Swedish Yacht
Club and, like Oracle and Luna Rossa,
bankrolled by a billionaire, Swedish oilman
Torbjrn Trnqvist.
Two weeks after the Artemis crash,
Cup organizers did institute a new set of
stringent regulations, which included
an increase in body armor worn by
crewmembers, higher visibility helmets,
hands-free underwater breathing appara-
tuses and a minimum of two rescue boats
for each yacht, replete with rescue divers
and swimmers. However, while announcing
these changes, Iain Murray, the Americas
Cup regaa director, delivered a caveat, the
purpose of which seemed to be safeguard-
ing the Cup against any future tragedy: No
recommendations can ever eliminate risk
or injury or death in what is an inherently
risky activity.
But for the races most vocal critics, fur-
ther casualties are more than just a risk.
As the San Francisco sportswriter and
Cup observer C.W. Nevius wrote aer the
Artemis crash, In aempting to build what
they trumpet as the worlds fastest boats,
they have created something so super-
charged and scary that these accidents
arent just possible, theyre likely.
JACK CAVANAUGH, a sportswriter for the
New York Times, covered the Americas Cup
when the greatest risk during a race was the
possibility of a crewmember falling overboard
and getting wet.

THE CENTER FOR REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
The Knee Diaries: SJ is a 60-year-old male with bone on bone osteoarthritis of the left
knee. An X-ray showed arthritis of the knee (X-ray on the left). Patient started receiving
treatments at The Center For Regenerative Medicine. Today he is feeling better (X-ray
on the right).
This is how it works: The physician introduces Cell Therapy into damaged, arthritic
cells by means of a precise injection. This process is followed by infrared laser as well
as several other modalities including Collateral Artery Flow Exercises (C.A.F.E.), in
order to accelerate the process. Depending on tissue damage, severity of the condition
and the size of the joint that needs to be injected, people usually need a series of 1 to
6 treatments to improve. There is usually no down time, and people can go back to
their usual activities or work immediately. The treatments can help most musculoskel-
etal problems such as low back pain, neck pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, whiplash,
sciatica, tendinitis, sprain, strains, torn ligaments and cartilage damage.

When pandas are one to two years
old, they enter a hilly training area with
their mothers. Over the course of several
years, the mothers teach the cubs how
to establish their territory, climb trees
for safety and locate enough bamboo
to surviveadult pandas eat about 28
pounds of the stuf a day, so this can be
quite a task.
SAVING THE GIANT PANDA, ONE BEAR COSTUME AT A TIME
Not long ago, the primary obstacle to increasing the panda population was convincing the bears
to mate in captivity. Now that researchers have mostly surmounted that problemusing articial
inseminationanother dilemma has reared its extinction-threatening head. It turns out that pandas
raised in captivity have a tough time surviving in the wild. Thats where Hemin Zhang, director of the
China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Chengdu, and Jianguo Liu, professor
of sheries and wildlife at Michigan State University, enter the picture. Over the last 17 years, the two of
them, with their teams, have developed a multi-pronged plan aimed at safely increasing the population
of pandas in protected areasone that includes, curiously, sta members wearing panda bear costumes.
The rst cub reared under this program, Tao Tao, was released into the wild late last year and is doing
well so far. Heres how they did it. JACQUELINE DETWILER

To ensure that the cubs can
distinguish between safe and dangerous
creatures, sheep, birds and pigs also live
in the enclosure, which stafers seed
with feces from predators like clouded
leopards. In order to tend to the environ-
ment without the bears getting used to
being around humans, training center
staf members wear panda suits.
3
Finally, Zhang and Liu have worked
with the Chinese government to provide
education and electricity subsidies that
discourage local residents from destroying
panda habitats by chopping down trees
and raising horses that eat bamboo. To
make the conservation sustainable, we
have to consider how to improve the
well-being of people as well, says Liu.

Robert Mundell, Nobel Prize-winning economist
Looking to the future, (West China cities) may become engines of growth when
export-oriented coastal cities encounter more headwind from shrinking external
demand.
Shi Lei, economics professor at Fudan University
ortune has smiled on Chengdu
now that the 2013 Fortune Global
Forum drew to a close on June 8 in
the western city of rising
international renown.
The fruitful three-day event saw at least
74 business deals signed between the
capital city of Sichuan province and Fortune
500 companies or large multinationals with
the combined value surpassing 112 billion
yuan ($18.26 billion).
Of them, 12 major projects worth 25.6
billion yuan were sealed on June 7 at a
contract signing ceremony held at the citys
Jinjiang Hotel.
Semiconductor design and
manufacturing company Texas Instruments
announced its long-term strategy for
manufacturing facilities in Chengdu in
conjunction with ocials of the Chengdu
High-Tech Industrial Zone at the ceremony.
Its future plans include a new assembly and
testing operation and the expansion of its
existing wafer fabrication factory.
TIs investment in the operation could
total $1.69 billion over the next 15 years for
more facilities, manufacturing equipment
and land.
The Chengdu High-Tech Industrial Zone
has been an excellent location for TIs
manufacturing investment in China. We
believe this region oers signicant benets
to TI and the more than 100,000 customers
we serve, said Kevin Ritchie, senior
vice-president of TIs Technology &
Manufacturing Group.
Schneider Electric of France is planning to
establish its rst subsidiary for Southwest
China in Chengdu.
Sam Chum, vice-president of Schneider
Electric China, said the company will soon
upgrade its representative oce to a branch
in the Chengdu High-Tech Industrial Zone
as the market in western regions attracts
more and more attention from the
companys top management.
The branchs business will cover sales,
management, coordination and service
support and is planned to become a
regional hub that could reach other cities in
Sichuan province, Chongqing, and the Tibet
autonomous region by the end of 2014.
More progress
Chum said as western China is set to
make more rapid progress than in the past
decade he hopes his company can get
involved in the development of Chengdu
and Sichuan province as a whole.
In addition to the high-tech zone,
Qionglai, a county-level city under the
administration of Chengdu, has also
become home to Fortune 500 companies.
On June 7 AkzoNobel unveiled its plans
to build a production base in Qionglais
industrial park.
The planned 55,000-square-meter facility
is scheduled to be completed in two phases
by 2017, according to the Dutch
multinational that specializes in paints,
coatings and specialty chemicals.
With the investment for phase one
totaling 40 million euros ($52.96 million),
the facilitys annual output for decorative
paint is expected to exceed 100 million
liters.
The same day French food and beverage
giant Danone announced it would increase
its investment in its Qionglai project that
opened last September.
The move will bring the companys total
investment in Chengdu to 600 million yuan,
said Gu Peiji, general manager of Danone
Asia Pacic Management Co.
With a designed annual capacity of
250,000 tons, the 14.6-hectare plant will
produce Mizone and be Danones largest
beverage facility in the Asia-Pacic region.
Other investors include
US-headquartered Flextronics, which
will set up a center making precision
instruments in Chengdus Shuangliu
county, and auto manufacturer Geely,
which will establish a production base in
the citys economic and technology
development zone.
A total of 238 Fortune Global 500
companies now have branches in Chengdu.
Booming foreign investment are the key
strengths for Chinas western business
center, Nobel Prize-winning economist
Robert Mundell said during the forum.
Mundell said the inland economic hub
should exploit its comparative strengths to
benet from economic globalization.
As you move up the ladder to more
high-tech and capital-intensive products,
foreign investment will be a big part, he
said, adding that foreign investment
simultaneously brings capital, technology
and market access.
Industrial hub
Mundell said Chengdu should
consolidate its role as a manufacturing base
and continue to foster investment in order
to maintain its advantages.
He also expressed condence in Chinas
economy.
Growth has been spectacular in
Chengdu with a huge increase in foreign
investment and exports, said Mundell.
Ellen Kullman, chief executive ocer of
DuPont, said that the company built a plant
in Chengdu last year while jointly founding
a research institute with Sichuan University
to develop new re and heat-resistant
materials.
The western city is now a hub for many
manufacturing industries and we are glad
to have set up a plant here, she told China
Daily in an earlier interview.
Among all provincial capitals, Chengdu
has the strongest growth rate in the
manufacturing sector, said ocials with the
citys statistics bureau.
The sectors 13.7 percent growth was a
major contributor to the citys GDP in the
rst quarter as it increased by 10.5 percent
from the same period last year to 215.1
billion yuan, they added.
Those gures far exceed the nationwide
growth in GDP of 7.7 percent and the 10.2
percent registered by Sichuan province.
Cities such as Chengdu in western China are
maintaining resilient momentum, Shi Lei, an
economics professor at Fudan University,
told media.
Looking to the future, they may become
engines of growth when export-oriented
coastal cities encounter more headwind
from shrinking external demand, Shi said.

INTRODUCING

SIMON WOODROFFE IS BRINGING ABOUT THE FOLDAWAY, POP-UP, PUSH-BUTTON HOME

BRIGHT IDEAS || INDUSTRY
This is the vision of British
entrepreneur Simon Woodroffe, whose
latest venture, Yo! Home, conjures up
the fun of his earlier Japanese-inspired
effortslike his Yo! Sushi restaurants
and Yotel capsule lodgingas well as his
former life as a set designer for bands
including the Rolling Stones and Queen.
In our prototype apartment there
are just 12 moving parts, all drawing on
the mechanics of stage scenery, he says.
We use a lot of counterweights, so if you
push or pull something it
feels very light. There are
some electric motors, but
weve used as lile as pos-
sible that can go wrong.
Woodroe is explaining
this from the open-plan
houseboat on the Thames
that he designed as his
London residence and
o ce, and which elegantly
displays the benefits
of multiuse living space.
Everything is within reach when needed
and tucked away when not.
This is one of those ideas that is so
obvious you wonder why no one has done
it before, he says, throwing up his arms in
faux exasperation. Our lives, particularly
the way we organize our possessions,
have changed enormously, but the way
we think about our homes has hardly
altered over a hundred or so years. He
adds that the first Yo! Home residence
could go up as early as this year, probably
in Londons hip Shoreditch neighborhood.
Woodroe isnt the only person working
on mini pads: There are similar projects
springing up as city planners try to recon-
cile the rising number of single residents
with dwindling urban spaces. In January,
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg
announced that he had adjusted the
rulebook to allow 55 micro-apartments in
Manhaans Kips Bay neighborhood, some
as tiny as 250 square feet.
But Woodroffe says
his ambitious new pro-
ject will herald a bigger
change in the way we live.
For starters, his stage-set
wizardry promises to
double or even triple a
homes functional size.
Secondly, he believes that
his version of Le Corbus-
iers maxim, The house
is a machine for living,
is emphatically in sync
with todays uid lifestyles and demands
for e ciency. Hes convinced that peekaboo
kitchens, transformer dens, elevator beds
and instant cinemas will resonate with buy-
ers (not to mention volume-driven property
developers) the world over. As well as saving
space, he adds, Yo! Home residences will
save money, as the furniture is the home.
Homes are an emotional purchase,
Woodroffe says. I think weve created
something that people will love.
F
rederick Law Olmsted, designer of New Yorks
Central Park and father of American landscape
architecture, was a big believer in the restorative pow-
ers of urban greenery, once saying, We want a ground
to which people may easily go when the days work is
done ... where they shall, in efect, nd the city put far
away from them.
But does just living near parks and gardens increase
your life satisfaction? Recent research from the University of
Exeters European Centre for Environment & Human Health suggests it might.
The scientists assessed the amount of green space (i.e., parks and
gardens) across England and then compared it against various psychological
measures in 10,000 people across 18 years. Even controlling for factors
like income, education, marital status and local crime, they found that a 25
percent increase in green space within 1.5 square miles of a persons home

While admiing that living in a kind
of Swiss Army knife may not be for
everyone, Woodroe believes there are
enough people in every high-cost city
on earth for the proposition to take o.
He envisions developers oering multiple
versions of the Yo! Home, varying in size
and nish, from bachelor pad to country
coage. The 860-square-foot prototype,
unveiled last fall at the U.K. industry
show 100% Design, had a price tag of
around $450,000.
Woodroe, known for his colorful suits
and fedoras, insists that Yo! Home is more
than a clever design concept. He believes
it has the potential to improve peoples
lives. He is aware that the prototypes
futuristic vibe will speak to aspirational
early adopters, but says the Yo! Home
model could easily be applied to housing
for students and the elderly, and prey
much everything in between.
And his ambitions for the project keep
growing. Right now, hes tinkering with
the design to incorporate sliding walls
built around courtyards, so residents can
open up their homes and foster a sense
of community. In cities today, two of the
biggest issues aecting people are stress
and loneliness, Woodroffe says. How
amazing would it be if we could help?

A century ago, the button rep-
resented everything that was sleek and
futuristic in technology. We already had
the switch, which heralded the advent
of electrical powerthe instantaneous
provision of light and heat. The button
took the switch even further, to the extent
that it muddled the connection between
cause and effect (hit one button and it
rings a doorbell; hit another and it drops
a bomb). The buon is a metaphor, says
Bill DeRouchey, a principal designer at
General Electric. It abstracts intentions
and actions.
Which is just what you need to launch
an information revolution. Over the
course of the 20th century, the button
transformed technology after technol-
ogy. In the 1960s, phones made the leap
from dials to buons. (Remember rotary
phones?) Computers, which started as
banks of switches, sprouted keyboards
(banks of buons with leers on them).
We used buttons to select television
shows to watch and pushed buttons to
order so drinks from vending machines.
Then came the BlackBerry, which bristled
with buons.
And then, with the iPhone, everything
changed. As a descendant of both the
computer and the phone, Apples super-
product had a big buon at the boom,
plus a switch at the top and some tiny
lile controls. You could even argue that
the entire screen is a buon of sorts. The
point, though, is that we didnt need to
rely on just buttons anymore; we could
tap, drag and pinch to operate the phone.
The moment Steve Jobs took the stage at
Macworld 2007 and brandished his niy
little device, the button was on notice.
Fingers, with touchscreens, became the
new buons.
TECH || BRIGHT IDEAS
AUGUST CROSSWORD ANSWERS
Yet habit does not always give way
so easily. While the iPhone may have
ushered in an era of virtual operation, we
still require that our tapping produce an
audible buon-like click. In the realm of
design, too, we havent quite excised our
century-long infatuation with the but-
ton. Karen McGrane, author of Content
Strategy for Mobile (disclosure: I wrote
the foreword), points out that we are still
a long way from the kind of minimalism
promised by the post-button era. Right
now, she says, mobile interfaces are charac-
terized by giant Fisher Price buonsbig,
round, infantile things.
But not for long. Look at Windows 8 and
you will get a sense of where we are headed
in terms of design: the at, the smooth,
the buonless. Then theres Google Glass,
the magic spectacles that will someday
(were told) project all manner of informa-
tion directly into a users eld of vision,
either automatically or via voice com-
mand. As far as the buon is concerned,
Google Glass seems to be sounding the
death knell.
Google could connect all sorts of key-
boards to the device (theres even been talk
of a virtual keyboard thats projected by
laser), but you probably wont type that
much in Google Glass. Maybe well tap
our heads when we want to see the news,
or hum a lile song when we want to send
email. Maybe we wont do anything at all
and the glasses will react to the time of
day or where we are, or to our thoughts.
Aesthetically, too, we dont really know
what this so-called augmented reality is
going to look like. As with many newborns,
itll probably start life a lile weird-looking,
maybe even ugly.
What is certain is that were in the midst
of a great technological shi. Already, the
physical manipulation of machines seems
kind of passlike those BlackBerrys we
went crazy over in the early-2000s. As
DeRouchey puts it, The buon has gone
from solid, to liquid, to air. We can also
be fairly sure that the transition wont be
seamless, since every technical advance
has its clunkers. And this uncertainty,
the prospect of ambition stumbling over
limitation, is part of the thrill.

The next time you travel to Houston for work, why not make the most of your
journey with a Bizcation
TM
? Add a day or two to your business trip and explore
the towns and sights around the inimitable Space City.
To feel like a real Texan, rent a truck or an SUV and
then start going north from downtown Houston on
Interstate 45. Just 25 miles out youll nd yourself in
Old Town Spring. To walk the streets of this charming
railroad town is to travel back 100 years in time.
Take a leisurely stroll on the streets by the railroad
yard, which are lled with more than 150 stores,
including galleries and cafs housed in beautiful
old Victorian-style buildings. The erstwhile Spring
Bank, which was rumored to have been robbed
by the famed duo of Bonnie and Clyde, is also
located here.
You can also head south on I-45 to the Johnson
Space Center on NASA Parkway. Its just half an hour
away from Houston and a must-visit for everyone.
If youre a space buf, plan ahead and book the
Level Nine Tour, which takes you behind the scenes
to Mission Control and the astronaut training areas.
If space is not your idea of a break, Clear Lake is
the perfect place to spend the day sailing or strolling
along the Kemah Boardwalk.
Back in your rental car, continue along I-45 south to
Galveston Island, a beach town just an hour outside
of Houston. If you rent a convertible, this is the perfect
time to peel back the top and let the sun pour in.
In addition to lovely beaches, the town has a historic
district called the Strand, where beautiful old buildings
house galleries and charming restaurants. We
suggest spending the night in one of Galvestons
many inns and hotels. Grace Manor is a particularly
elegant B&B that gets consistently great reviews
from guests. If youre out of time and cant stay on,
well, theres always the next business trip waiting to
become a Bizcation

very important question: Really?

IF YOU WERE BEING PAID to come up with
an unlikely show business pairing, youd
have earned your money if you chose
Morgan Spurlock and One Direction.
Spurlock is the documentary film-
maker who sucker-punched the fast
food industry by gorging on McDonalds
(Super Size Me), who sent up the idea
of product placement in a lm funded by
product placement (The Greatest Movie
Ever Sold) and who traipsed around
the Middle East asking awkward
questions (Where In the World Is Osama Bin Laden?).
This month sees the release of Spurlocks latest
eort, This Is Us, a concert lm featuring One
Direction, the platinum-selling boy band that
rose to fame on The X Factor and sent an
entire generation of girls into paroxysms
of appreciation.
The film (co-produced by X Factor
creator Simon Cowell) does not cast a
jaundiced eye over the cult of celebrity.
Instead, it is an intimate look at a
bunch of very, very charming kids
who became very, very famous. In
a Twitter Q&A before its release,
Spurlock promised fans More
shirtless moments than you can
imagine.
Weird.

HEMISPHERES: OK, so I basically have one
question for you.
MORGAN SPURLOCK: Yes?
HEMISPHERES: The question is: Huh?
SPURLOCK: Ha. Right.
HEMISPHERES: Thats pretty much going to
be the tone of the entire interview.
SPURLOCK: Thats totally ne. [Loud
static.] Is that your phone? Or is that
my phone? [Static.] Hold on; hold on a
second. [Pause.] Sorry, there we go.
HEMISPHERES: I know what that was: Simon
Cowell has put a tap on the phone.
SPURLOCK: Thats exactly right, hes
listening to the whole conversation.
I see youve worked with Simon before.
HEMISPHERES: When I heard you were
making this lm I thought, No, no, no, this has
got to be some sort of spoof. But its true: youre
making a pop-umentary about One Direction.
SPURLOCK: It is true. We are making
a super-huge, 3D, boy band explosion
extravaganza movie.
HEMISPHERES: If somebody had asked me
whod be the last person on Earth to do this, Id
have said you, then maybe Roman Polanski,
followed by Quentin Tarantino. So why?
SPURLOCK: When we got the call to make
this lm, I jumped at the chance. To be
a documentary lmmaker and get the
opportunity to make a lm of this scope,
of this scale, of this budgetthese
things dont happen oen. Just to get
to explore this world, which is so, so
beyond anything Ive ever been around.
I was very, you know, kind of inspired
by it.
HEMISPHERES: Its denitely a departure. I tend
to think theres a Morgan Spurlock template: The
arch-ironist who uses humor to get at something
not quite so funny about society. Youre a satirist.
SPURLOCK: Yeah.
HEMISPHERES: As you said, youre shooting
some of the lm in 3D. I cant wait to see [lead
singer] Harry Styles eyelashes popping out at me
from the screen. Im very excited about that.
SPURLOCK: They are even more dreamy
in 3D.
HEMISPHERES: Even now Im wondering if this
is going to be some kind of stealth satire. Youre
going to get in there and do something weird.
SPURLOCK: There are going to be some
things that you wouldnt typically see
in a lm like this. We talk to medical
professionals and neuroscientists, who
basically tell us what happens inside of
a girls brain and in her body when she
listens to One Direction. The goal for
us is to take you to a place you wouldnt
expect.
HEMISPHERES: But did you have to put some of
your other impulses aside? In what way is this a
Morgan Spurlock lm?
SPURLOCK: Well, Im making it, so thats
the biggest one. But its not like I just
want to tear apart all the sacred cows in
the world. Part of what I want to do as
a lmmaker is put myself in a position
where I can do unique and original
projects. So to capture this amazing
moment with these guys, while the
rocket ship is still streaming through the
sky, is fascinating.
HEMISPHERES: A lot of people, by which I mean
a lot of One Direction fans, are anticipating this
being a straightforward behind-the-scenes thing,
the camera dwelling lovingly on their hair....
SPURLOCK: Listen, there will be lots of
lovely hair-ial shots. There will be these
beautiful slow-motion moments. There
will be plenty of things like that to please
the fans. But there will also be things
that will separate this from the sort of
lms they may have seen in the past.

you failed to meet the fans expectations. Youd be

SPURLOCK: Yeah, exactly. Ive seen the
lads literally get chased down the street,
like their bus is going down the street
and girls are sprinting aer the bus and
just, like, screaming and yelling, tears
falling down their faces. Its remarkable.
HEMISPHERES: Dont boy bands have the shelf

SPURLOCK: If you look at this from a
historical context, there are pop idols
who have been around foreverfrom
Frank Sinatra to the Beatles to, you know,
the Backstreet Boys and NSYNC. There
are some who have the ability to tran-
scend that. And thats what makes this

CHERI BOOTS-SUTTON is standing in a
room roughly the size of an aircra hangar,
hollering in a hybrid of English and gobble-
dygook. Thirty-three thousand! she cries.
Kinigedabid? (This translates, roughly,
to Can I get a bid?) A gleaming white
Mercedes rolls by. Look at the color on
that baby! Thirty-three now! Thirty-four!
Kinigedabid! Its not the most elegant
vocal performance ever, or even the most
intelligible, but its eective. Boots-Suon
has moved nearly 300 luxury cars today.
Were on the Mercedes line at Manheim
DallasFort Worth Auto Auction in Euless,
Texas, one of two auction houses where
the 46-year-old former restaurant man-
ager plies her trade. Shes an attractive,
well-turned-out woman, with perfectly
manicured hands, chestnut hair and a taut
energy. Thirty-six thousand! she demands
between bursts of gibberish. Come on,
fellas! Its not too late for Valentines Day!
Another car rolls o the lot.
Anyone who knows Boots-Suon would
not be surprised by her hot streak today.
Shes been auctioning cars since the late
1980s, and is widely considered to be one of
the best in the business. Her rsum lists
a number of national and international
awards, and there seems lile doubt that
she will one day be inducted into the
National Auctioneers Association Hall of
Fame (an institution that does not boast
an overabundance of female honorees).
Boots-Sutton in full-on selling mode
is a thing to see. She works the block six
feet above the car lane, her manner iing
between amused, exasperated and totally
deadpan as she belts out a spellbinding,
rapid-fire mantra that makes even the
casual bystander want to put in a bid. So
renowned is Boots-Suttons vocal style
that she teaches a course on how to do it,
Auction Chant 101, which is consistently
among the most popular classes at the
Dallas-based Texas Auction Academy.
To a degree, Boots-Suttons ascent to
the top of her eld has coincided with a
rise in the fortunes of the industry as a
whole. Popular reality shows like Auction
Hunters and Storage Wars have sparked
interest in auctions, as has the faltering
economy, which has made bargain hunt-
ing a necessity rather than a diversion. But
auctioneers havent had it all good.
Not so long ago, before people realized
they could bid on cars via the Internet, this
hangar would have been packed with deal-
ers. These days Boots-Suon can have as
many as 150 people bidding online and as
few as 10 standing in front of her. As she
points out, powers of enchantment and
showmanship dont count for much when
the primary means of communication is a
clicked icon.
Auctioneering, she says, is kind of a
dying art.
SHE BELTS OUT A
SPELLBINDING,
RAPID-FIRE MANTRA
THAT MAKES
EVEN THE CASUAL
BYSTANDER WANT
TO BID.

While Boots-Suon is now considered
to be one of the industrys superstars, the
early years werent quite so auspicious.
During the time it took her to master
the trade, she managed a Hardees and
worked at the local cement plant to make
ends meet. Eventually, she took a job at a
consignment house, where she spent most
of her time hauling junk out of peoples
basements, pulling in as lile as 10 bucks
for a days work.
But Boots-Sutton caught the atten-
tion of a veteran auctioneer, who helped
her with her chant. In 1999 she won her
rst auctioneering competition, and was
promoted from ring man (the person who
takes bids from dealers on the floor) to
auctioneer, up in the booth. She started
making beer moneythough with four
kids to raise, she kept her job at the cement
plant. Many mornings, shed go to the plant
and then hurry home to change into an
evening gown for a celebrity auction gig.
Today, Boots-Sutton is so goodher
chant is so fast and tightthat she can
sell a car nearly every minute. Shes even
managed to make the best of a bad lot with
the rise of Internet auctioneering, having
learned how to play dealers in the audi-

THE AMERICAN AUCTION (not to be
confused with the staid, British-style
version conducted by Sothebys and
Christies) dates back to the Colonial era.
Called sales by public outcry, auctions
were seen as a democratic form of com-
merce, allowing the people to decide what
constituted a fair price. Auctions also pro-
vided a social venue, and had an element
of communal support: If the local sheri
put a familys house and goods up for sale,
their neighbors sometimes bought it all
back on the familys behalf.
But auctions carried a stigma, too. There
was a belief that people went a lile crazy
at auctions and were dangerous when
bidding, says Ellen Hartigan-OConnor,
a history professor at UC Davis. This was
the time when the auctioneer-as-showman
model began to take shape, something that
aroused further suspicion among skeptics.
The best auctioneers were prized for their
ability to coax the crowd and cast a spell,
Hartigan-OConnor says. They had to prove
that they werent just shady middlemen
who would do anything for a good price.
Distrust peaked in the years aer the
Civil War, when auctioneers got into the
habit of speaking rapidly and using coded
language. Suddenly, no one could under-
stand a thing they were saying. This style
of mixing numbers with rhythmic, non-
sense ller wordsa.k.a. the chantis
now a staple of professional auctioneering.
Boots-Sutton, one of the fastest in the
trade, admits to sometimes losing track
of her own monologue. I try to figure
out what Im saying, she says. But I dont
really know.
BOOTS-SUTTONS FIRST exposure to
auctions came when her father and grand-
father took her, as a small girl, to farm sales
in rural Missouri. On cold, damp days, her
grandmother would x them hot choco-
late and egg sandwiches. I didnt think too
much about the auctioneers, she recalls. I
just knew they talked fast, and I remember
that one of the ring men was crazyhoot-
ing and hollering.
Although shed enjoyed these events
as a kid, Boots-Sutton didnt consider
auctioneering as a profession until she,
about to become an 18-year-old single
mother, happened across a pamphlet for
a correspondence course that her brother
had ordered. I realized that I could be an
auctioneer on weekends, she says, and a
mother during the week.

So, Mr. Ford, why the Orient?
The convergence of old and new in Asia really
spoke to me. I wanted to make a collection
using some of the most cherished ingredients
from Asian culture, including hualan and star
magnolia owers, ume plums, citrus fruits and
oriental spices.
What do you do to get the balance of the
ingredients right?
I wear the formulas for weeks. Each note needs
time to be understood. I wear every single scent
in every stage of its development, because
you cannot evaluate a scent until you know it
intimately on your own skin. I love every part
of the process: adjusting, testing and smelling.
Do you have a particular woman, or
type of woman, in mind when creating
a new fragrance?
The Tom Ford woman is definitely
not a wallflower. That said, I never
constrain the creative process with
preconceptions of who will wear the
finished fragrance. Men wear my
womens fragrances, women wear my
mens fragrances, and the Private Blend
fragrances are deliberately unisex. For me,
there are no rules in perfume.
How important is packaging to a per-
fume? Is the right bole half the bale
in producing a successful fragrance?
The rst thing that makes you reach for a
fragrance is the bole. You should get plea-
sure from looking at it every day on your
dressing room table or makeup counter.
That said, a fantastic bole can never make
up for a mediocre fragrance.
Visually daring advertising is something
else youre famous for. How will you go
about marketing this new collection?
The images for the Private Blend
collection always focus on the
bole, which I designed seven years
ago, and has the slightest feel of
an apothecary. These fragrances
are not about a persona, rather,
they are very much about the
artisanal and sometimes unusual
ingredients, and they may be worn
in many waysalone, layered, or
however you like.

the high level of craftsmanship
involved, Sokosh says he doesnt

FORM
OF THE
CENTURY
The day Cond Montrose
Nast bought the struggling
weekly Vogue in 1909, he
transformed not only the
publ i shi ng i ndustry but
photography and fashion,
too. The fashion pages in
Cond Nas t magazi nes
Vogue i n parti cul ar
have become cultural events
in their own right, a fact
aested to by the images here,
which are part of a retrospec-
tive currently on view at
Edinburghs City Art Centre.
Comi ng i nto Fashion: A
Century of Photography at
Cond Nast is a celebration
of gloss and glamour, yes,
but thats not all. Gradu-
ally, we come to understand
that despite the allure of the
models and the clothes, the real
beauty of these images is in
the composition.
Colors are also prized for their rarity
or their durabilitybonus points if you
can combine the two. In antiquity, Tyrian
purple dye, derived from the secretions of
sea snails, was valued because it was hard
to get hold of, but also because it was hard
to get rid of. Similarly, when scientists at
Oregon State University discovered a new,
super-durable variety of blue in 1999, the
event was greeted with great fanfare.
The fuss surrounding this discovery
was not simply a matter of aesthetics.
Picking the right color is considered key
to the success of products ranging from
cars to cornakes. And its not enough to
merely work with the colors of the rain-
bowcompanies want fancy new colors
of their own. So it is that MAC Cosmetics
boasts more than 100 shades for eyes, lips
and face and Mavi Jeans come in Mid
Ultra Marine, Nile Green and a shade
called Dusky Jameson.
Keeping an eye on all this, meanwhile,
Tens of thousands of years ago, an artists
palee was fairly limited. As many a cave
wall will tell you, ochre tended to be the
color of choice, mainly because you work
with whats available, and red-brown rocks
were there for the picking. This is also why
most barns are redferric oxide, a tradi-
tional ingredient in red paint, is cheap and
plentiful (because its rust). Frugal farmers:
red barns.

50 SHADES OF PLAY
Pantone may be working to create,
own and prot from a world color
system, but civilians are geing in
on the act, too. Check out indie color
resource maxeldscolor.tumblr.com,
created by Al Rotches in collabora-
tion with his ve-year-old daughter
Maxeld. Every day Al and Max post
a swatch of a new color, along with
a title. Maxs earlier work was some-
what juvenile, tending to Pooping
Pig Pink and Beige Like Daddy.
Then again, she was three. As shes
grown older, Max has become more
sophisticated, with entries like Jade
Like the Bug We Saw While Hiking
and Extra Extra Extra Extra Extra
Extra Extra Extra Extra Extra Dark
Black. Both potentials for Pantone's
2014 Color of the Year. P.F.
are organizations like the International
Colour Association, the International
Color Consortium and the International
Colour Authority. Paint producer Benja-
min Moore hands out annual HUE awards
to honor innovative work in the eld, and
also publishes an annual book called Color
Trends, which reports on what colors are
in vogue.
Then theres Pantonethe world-
renowned authority on color and provider
of color systemswhich, among many
other things, works with corporate
licensees to identify and coordinate colors.
Pantone also names a Color of the Year.
Last year it was Tangerine Tango; this
year its Emerald.
A typical Pantone partner is the Dessy
Group, a maker of wedding gowns. A
few years ago, with more than 200 colors
across its product lines, the company was
concerned that things were geing a bit
muddy. So, explains CEO Alan Dessy, we
went to Pantone and performed a backll
cross-reference, a process that puts colors
under a spectrometer and matches them
to previously identied shades.
This means that Dessys brides-to-be
can now plan a wedding with the exact
shade of dress specied, the beer to pick
matching stationery, oral arrangements
and eye shadow. Dessy and other licens-
ees, meanwhile, eagerly create products
in Pantones Color of the Year. This year,
for instance, you can pick up an Ice Watch
(from the companys Pantone Universe col-
lection) that is both Emerald in color and
bears that colors o cial code (#17-5641) on
the watch face.
All of this takes planning, so Pantone
licensees are informed in advance, under
the terms of a nondisclosure agreement,
what the next Color of the Year will be.
When asked, Dessy refuses to disclose the
color for 2014.
I only have an inkling, he says.

HONG KONG
BRIDGES
AND
TUNNELS
The city that reinvented
the sidewalk
Hong Kong is a place built on
a layered, interwoven lattice
of walkways: elevated bridges
and submerged tunnels, aerial
paths and suspended passages.
The recent Cities Without
Ground: A Hong Kong Guide-
book represents the rst eort
to map the labyrinth. Here, co-
author Clara Wong discusses
Hong Kongs futuristic urban
experience.
Hemispheres: What inspired
this book?
Wong: As architects work-
ing and living in Hong Kong,
my co-authors and I are
intrigued by its groundless-
nesspedestrians move in a
three-dimensional network,
from interior to exterior, air
conditioned to non -air con-
ditioned, public to private,
through a conti nuum of
walkways and tunnels where
various activities take place. It
can be confusing to navigate, so
we decided to make a city guide
that maps these 3D routes.
Hemispheres: How did the
walkways come about?
The 1938 Chicago Auto Show was a grand aair.
On display were 220 vehicles from 25 dierent
manufacturers showcasing the latest advances
in conditioned air, aero-hydraulic shock absorp-
tion and automatic gear shifting. With one
notable exception, every car on display had
running boards, wing-style fenders, bug-eye
headlights and the boxy, carriage-style rear
that had been the norm since the rst Model Ts.
The exception was a futuristic two-seater
convertible called the Buick Y-Job. Designed
by Harley J. Earl, head of the nascent Styling
Section at General Motors (formerly the Art and
Color Section), the Y-Job was low and wide and
nearly 20 feet long, with integrated fenders, a
gun-sight hood ornament, a power-operated
convertible top and concealed headlights.
It was the rst pure concept car, says Larry
Edsall, author of Concept Cars: From the 1930s to
the Present. It was designed to show the public
at large one companys ideas of how we all might
be traveling in the future.
The Y-Job, as with all concept cars, repre-
sented a form of fanciful conjecture. Nobody
really expected it to go into production, and it
never did. Certain elements of its design, how-
ever, determined the look and feel of a whole
generation of vehicles. Indeed, in the 75 years
since the Y-Job wowed Chicago, so-called dream
cars have become a constant at auto shows, and
their most obvious functionto unhinge the
jaws of car enthusiastshas consistently been
matched by their potential to inuence mass-
market design.
Few people grasped the potential of concept
cars as well as Earl. In the early 1950s, as GMs
rst vice president of design, he oversaw the
development of a U.S. version of the sporty
British roadsters then speeding around
EuropeMGs and Triumphs and Jaguars.
Using a new wonder material called ber-
glass, Earl and his team built a concept car
that made its debut at the Motorama at New
Yorks Waldorf Astoria Hotel in 1953. They
called it the Corvee.
Not every concept has the immediate and
dramatic eect of GMs legendary muscle
car, of course, even the most fantastical
creations leave their mark to a far higher
degree than people imagine. Take the 1958
Ford Nucleon, which was to be powered by
a small nuclear reactor. Sound a lile nuts?
But the Nucleon did presage a future in
which carmakers would look seriously at
replacing the internal combustion engine
with, for example, hydrogen fuel cells.
One of the most inuential concepts of
the last two decades, argues Edsall, was
the Volkswagen Concept One, which VW
unveiled in 1994 as a way to showcase its new
battery-electric powertrain. That innova-
tion was quickly overshadowed by the cars
retro-mod appearancea design element
that ushered in the age of the New Beetle.
On the whole, concept cars are not created
to familiarize the public with a product so
much as an idea. In fact, says Chris Brown, a
former car designer who now works as mar-
keting director for the Petersen Automotive
Museum in Los Angeles, without concept
cars, many of the auto ideas we now take for
granted may have been rejected out of hand.
People tend to like things theyre familiar
with, Brown says.

Wong: Two factors: geography
and economy. Mountainous
terrain, limited space and a
large population have forced
construction to expand sky-
ward and underground. Hong
Kongs hyper economy means
it is to everyones benefit to
have fast and convenient
access from transport hubs to
retail spaces.
Hemispheres: What do they
add to Hong Kongs look, feel
and functionality?
Wong: These networks func-
tion in the same way that the
ground functions in typical
plazas and squares, just in
three dimensions and less
predictably. There are the
same activities that youd
expect to find in streets or
publ i c squares: buskers

the Victoria Harbor to the IFC
mall, then over to the Pacic
Place complex via dense o ce

The Campana brothers plant a new seed
You dont have to spend too much time
exploring the work of the Campana broth-
ers to get a sense of where they stand on
the form-vs.-function question.
Since 1983, when Fernando and Hum-
berto Campana founded their studio in
So Paulo, Brazil, their designswhich
range from furniture to fashionhave
been marked by a chaotic, colorful eccen-
tricity. Theyve designed a sofa made
from compressed cardboard, along with
chairs made from stued toys. There are
Campana cowhide bookshelves and a
Campana shirt (for Lacoste) thats a mad
patchwork of alligator logos.
In February, the Campana brothers
turned their hand to landscape architec-
ture, creating an enormous structure out
of living bamboo, which they have aptly
named the Bamboo Cathedral. Intended
to be used for yoga and meditation, the
cathedral is situated on the grounds of
a rustic luxury hotel, Fazenda Catuaba,
outside So Paulo. About 115 feet in diam-
eter and encircled by a low dry-stone wall,
the cathedral is not yet fully formed. The
Campanas have no limits, not even with
nature itself, says Emmanuel Rengade,
the hotels French owner.

Bow says, is enjoying a boom, judging by

their property, but Bow and One arent
exactly vandals. A lot of the work they
do is corporatea brand will organize an
event and invite the couple to paint live.
And while Bow allows that complete pur-
ists might look down on them, shes not
losing any sleep. Its given me a platform
to do things I love, she says. And, as One
points out, Theres a lot
of effort that goes into
creating the work.
The work, meanwhile,
is usually painted over by
the next day. It can be frustrating, One
says. We do all this work for people and
then it disappears.
In an effort to introduce an element
of permanence, Bow and One have set
up a 130-foot graffiti wall in their back-
yard, which has become something of
a niche tourist attraction, with artists
from around the world stopping by to
add their personal touch to just about
the only place theyre welcome to paint
in Dubai.
People think of graffiti as being a
slightly aggressive thing, Bow says. But
once youre in that little clique, they all
look aer each other.
Recentl y, they had two
London legendsZombie and
Jivedrop by and tag their
wall. And when these guys
paint something, says Bow, we
dont ever want to paint over it.

Mechanical engineer Kent Frankov-
ich didnt like what he was seeing
with his bike headlight. Rather, he
didnt like what he wasnt seeing:
Because of where lights are usually
mountedup high, on the handle-
barscyclists tend to get a poor view
of obstacles in the road.
The solution: two rings of wheel-
mounted LED lights that are fed
orientation and speed data, enabling
them to blink on when theyre fac-
ing forward and off when theyre
not, so as not to blind the rider.
Frankovich had essentially turned
his front wheel into one big glowing
headlight.
When I made the prototype, I
realized how visible it ended up mak-
ing me, he says, So I quickly made a
taillight to match it.
In 2010, Frankovich teamed up
with Adam Pettlera former bio-
tech worker looking for investment
opportunitiesand the two devel-
oped a business plan. Thanks to a
few viral videos that made cyclists
slicing through dark San Francisco
streets look like something out of
Tron, a Kickstarter campaign raised
almost ve times the target amount,
and the rst release hit the streets
shortly thereafter. They had man-
aged to make safety cool.
This summer saw an upgrade,
Revolights City v2.0, and the duo
partnered with local custom bike-
maker Mission Bicycles to produce
Revolights Wheels: wheels that come
with the system pre-installed.
Embracing the sci-fi aesthetic,
the company recently showcased
its product with a flash mob-style
ride at the debut of the Bay Lights
project on the San Franci sco
Bay Bridge. People kept asking
if they were related, Frankovitch
says. But the engineers favorite
reaction should sound familiar to
any inventor with a forehead-
smacking idea: Why hasnt this been
invented yet?SAM POLCER

STEALTH WEALTH
Hobo-like clothing carries Hermes-like price tags

Darklands doesnt make it easy for potential
customers.
The Berlin fashion retailer relocates frequently and
without warning (right now, it is situated in the far cor-
ner of a shambles of industrial buildings in one of the
citys few remaining wastelands). There is no phone. It
is only open in the aernoons. And dont bother looking
for signs, because there arent any.
If you do happen to nd your way into the store,
challenges remain. Almost every item in Darklands
cavernous, gallery-white interior seems to have been
designed specically for Mick Jaggers physique. And
his wallet. The overall aesthetic is Alternative Luxury,
but Post-Apocalyptic Excess would work equally well.
Sneakers that look like they were pulled o a hobo cost
$1,800. Scued black jeans can set you back $2,500. A
ripped shirt sells for... well, you get the picture.
But look closer and youll discover that these high-
priced items are indeed from high-end experimental
designers like Austrias Carol Christian Poell and Ice-
lands Sruli Recht. The $2,200 sneakers, for example, are
by Rome-based brand A1923 (A Diciannoveventitre),
and are handmade from bualo, llama or horse leather;
the lace eyelets are custom-rusted. Alongside these is a
collection of rumpled, leather-laced boots from Guidi,
a Tuscan tannery that has been making footwear since
1896, employing methods used since the 14th century.
The thing every designer here has in common is
they are all artisanseverything is made by hand
in the traditional way, says Darklands founder, a
Canadian named Campbell McDougall. This approach
chimes with a lot people now.
McDougall opened Darklands in much smaller
premises ve years ago, with the aim of making enough
money to get by. I just wanted to be able to stay in
Berlin, he says.
Now, he adds, gesturing at a leather jacket with a
$5,000 price tag, these are ying o the shelves.
As for whos making them fly, McDougall says
his customers come from all overthe U.S., Europe,
Asiawith an increasing
amount of business being
done online. Foot traffic,
meanwhile, remains lim-
ited. Actually, McDougall
says with a shrug, very few
Berliners have heard of us.

SCULPTURAL
FOOTWEAR:
KOBI LEVI
Kobi Levi had been handcrafting foot-
wear in his living room for 10 yearsand
sculptures for almost as long as he can
rememberby the time he uploaded a
photo to his blog and his designs went viral.
Lady Gagas fashion director requested a
pair of his double-headed boots for her
Born this Way video, and Levi thought
it was a joke. Hed been designing fanci-
ful footwear in his spare timewearable
sculptures made in the image of swans
or laundry baskets or banana peelsand
wasnt doing this to make money. Shoes
make people want to try them on and
in this way become a part of them, he
says. This is more interesting to me than
conventional sculptures, which are left
untouched and distant. To this end, Levi
both shows his shoes at galleries, like at
the exhibit currently at the Dutch Leather
and Shoe Museum in Waalwijk, and sells
them on his website to those who would
rather put them on, for prices ($1,000+)
that clearly rule out wearing them in
the rain.
AFFORDABLE
FRESCOES:
CARNOVSKY
There was a time when designers and
artists were in separate camps. There
used to be boundaries, rules. Those who
break them, like art historian Francesco
Rugi and industrial designer Silvia
Quintanillawho formed the art duo
Carnovsky in Milan six years ago and
now make ne art wallpaperare labeled
visionaries. Only they dont see what
theyre doing as so shocking.
We believe that today the distinctions
between art, design and illustration dont
have a reason to exist, says Rugi. If the
same thing is exhibited in an art gallery,
instead of a design one, it costs 10 to 100
times as much. Its a very stupid thing,
because it is absolutely not linked to the
pieces value.
Though the two are interested in
everything from handbags to printing
to furniture, they have achieved most of
their fame using wallpaper. Their RGB
series, riotously colorful wallcoverings
that display dierent images when lit by
red, green or blue lters (RGB stands for
red-green-blue, the color model behind
most television displays), features themes
of animals, sea life and anatomy studies.
Though the designs have been shown in
galleries, they are also available to the pub-
lic as wallpapers, scarves and even iPhone
skins via Carnovskys website.
Wallpaper for us is a medium that
allows us to create installations at an
architectural scale, installations in
which people are immersed, says
Rugi. To recreate a sort of frescoat
an acceptable price.

TATTOOS:
AMANDA WACHOB
Aer earning an art degree in photography
(she also paints) and learning to tattoo on
oranges, Amanda Wachob became a celebrated
taoo artist for her watercolor-esque designs.
Then she began to wonder, she says, whether
the designs I had been tattooing over the
years were falling short. So she began inking
her clients with impressionist paint splaers. From there, she
moved on to taooing canvases, and created a whole series of
marked-up oranges, leather pieces and pomegranates, which
she showed at galleries lled with people sporting her work.
Next up, shes working on a project in which shell use the
power information from her taooing machine to create a
sort of meta-taoo. She doesnt know what it will look like
yet, but presumably it will include some sort of graphic rep-
resentation of voltage and ink levels. A taoo machine is just
a tool, and it just depends on the intent behind the tool, she
says. Cant there be things other than suns and panthers and
dragons? People should have more options.
MY CAN BEAT UP YOUR
An iconic design rm shores up its defenses
against copycats
Alberto Alessi, president of
Italian homewares company
Alessi, is preoccupied with
intellectual property rights
and spends as much time
protecting his designs as he
does creating them.
In the coming months, with
the release of his companys
new eyewear line, called
Alessieyes, the 67-year-old
says hell be keeping tabs on
competitors, making sure
they havent had any similar
ashes of inspiration. And
rivals are sure to be intrigued
by the labels new titanium
and acetate frames, which
feature embedded magnets
that create oating hinges,
enabling single-handed
manipulation.
Imagine slipping on your
sunglasses without taking
your aention o the road,
Alessi says.
The law school graduate
recently addressed a London
conference on luxury and
the law, in which he oered
a designers view of a
situation that is reaching
crisis proportions. Even in
Italy, where design is oered
relatively high levels of
protection, ownership of, say,
a shape or color combination
is hard to determine. There, as
elsewhere, counterfeiting is
running rampant.
According to Alessi, his
company has around 20 on-
going IP infringement cases at
any time. In order to nip such
infringement in the bud, the
company deploys an endless
array of protective trademarks,
and patents its products as
ornamental rather than
functional, which makes it
harder for would-be imitators
to just sort of stumble across a
similar look in their eorts to
create the perfect corkscrew.
Also, Alessi says, pirates can
be quite easily priced out of
the game: We oen recourse
to artisan manual skills or
the very opposite: expensive
molds.
In the end, the bale against
counterfeiting will not be
decided by the warring parties
but by consumersor, speci-
cally, consumers willingness
to pay a premium for quality.
Alessi, for his part, is banking
on the reverence exhibited by
his companys devotees, most
of whom wouldnt be seen
dead using a knocko Peppino
pepper mill. Still, he isnt ready
to let his guard down yet.
The fact remains, he says,
copies can make a mess.

THREE PERFECT DAYS || ALASKA
WHEN ALASKA WAS PURCHASED
from the Russians in 1867, the U.S.
acquired an area more than twice the
size of Texas encompassing some of
Earths most pristine wilderness for
roughly two cents an acre ($7.2 million
in total)and yet, incredibly, it wasnt
until the great Klondike gold strike of 1896
that it was seen as a smart investment.
While gold and, later, oil ultimately
justied Sewards Folly (so named for
the politician who brokered the deal),
Alaska had always been seen as a treasure
trove, at least for adventure seekers,
pioneers and the Native Alaskan popula-
tion that had been there for ages. A
spectacular landscape with meandering
glacial valleys, thick spruce forests,
dramatic mountain peaks and jagged
coastlines lled with a menagerie of
wildlife, the Last Frontier has long
been the province of the hardy: Think
Native Alaskan seal hunters, bush pilots,
brackish shermen and, more recently,
backcountry skiers, whitewater river
raers and extreme hikers.
In recent years, however, Alaska has
seen an inux of a new kind of tourist:
they may like the look and feel of a eece-
lined red annel coat and a pair of rugged
leather Sorel hiking boots, but when it
comes to picking the meat o of some
freshly caught salmon, they prefer to do it
in the comfort of a ve-star restaurant.

Where you can see blue ice, that means
its solid, says your pilot, Jared. You cant
be sure whats under the snow, though.
You freeze his words in the front of your
mind. The ice is blue, he explains, because
it has been so compressed over time that
pockets of air have been forced out. It
now only reects light at the blue end of
the spectrum. Each car-sized chunk looks
like a piece of broken sky. You wander the
alien landscape in disbelief, not straying
far from the arctic blue pond, which is the
most mesmerizing thing of all.
Later, back in Girdwood, youre still
exhilarated (and a bit wobbly) from your
IMAX ight sequence, so you head to the
Double Musky Inn to right yourself with a
hearty lunch. The walls of this lodge-like
eatery are decorated with what appears

bedrolls on muddy plateaus. Fortunately,

to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center,
a sprawling refuge for orphaned and dis-

black bears, caribou, lynxes, moose and
wood bison. There, you take a shine to two
musk ox calves, who seem more bear-cub
than cow, along with a proud one-winged
eagle named Adonis, before bidding your
new friends adieu.
Up a rutted road, you find the Crow
Creek Mine, the states most popular recre-
ational gold mining area and the spot that
rst put Girdwood on the map. During its
peak nearly a hundred years ago, the mine
produced more than 700 ounces a month,
and folks today are still nding not only

yesteryear but some untouched stores

crispy pork belly almost steals the show.
Its bedtime now, and the sun finally

So before todays adventure, you head to
The Bake Shop, a homey decades-old break-

You order one of these sugar bombs along

here, if someone calls you skookum,
it means youre cool). You grab a can of
Denali Brewing Company Single Engine
Red from the bar and head to an outdoor
viewing deck where your gaze is drawn
to distant mountains reected perfectly
in placid glacial lakes. You breathe deep,
sucking in air thats been squeezed out
of ice and further puried by miles upon
miles of alpine wilderness.
Long after youve lost count of black
bears, porcupines and eagles, the train
arrives at the port town of Seward, where
a boat, courtesy of Kenai Fjords Tours,
ferries you into even more breathtaking
scenery. You slip into a fog bank divid-
ing the waters of Resurrection Bay from
coasts worthy of a Peter Jackson epic, but
soon the sheer rock faces and strange lile
spruce-covered islands and outcroppings
come back into view.
Youre pleased to discover that youre
not alone: Playful humpback whales,
stealthy orcas, canoodling sea otters,
lounging sea lions and clumsy pu ns all
swing by to say hello. After a few short
hours of this, the vessel pauses beneath
the massive Holgate Glacier long enough
for you to witness a very large chunk of
ice break o with a thunderous crack and
a splash to match. With that, the captain
sets a course back to Seward, where you re-
board the train and doze o to the steady
rhythm of the tracks, occasionally waking
to blink your eyes at nature so relentlessly
beautiful its as if youre dreaming the
whole time.
What you do actually dream about,
of course, is eating. So, en route from
Girdwood to Anchorage in your rental,
you swing by Indian Valley Meats for the
ultimate road food: jerky. You grab one of
everything for souvenirsnothing says I
was thinking of you like dried meatand
tear into a package of maple garlic elk,
which you gnaw on until the end of the
drive and before heading to dinner.
Perhaps its because your jaw is primed
from the jerky, but the light, buery black
cod that you order at Jens Restaurant in
Anchorage is as so and velvety as any-
thing youve eaten in your life. You savor
every strawberry gastrique and berry
salsa-drizzled morsel like its the last
time youll ever eat seafood this fresh,
which is a possibility.
Even though youre on the verge of
collapse after a blissfully long day, you
stop by the hipster hangout Sub Zero Bis-
tro & Microlounge, if only for the novelty
of an after-hours nightcap in twilight.
One whi skey- and honey-fl avored
cocktail later, a rugged-looking out-
doorsy type almost convinces you theres
plenty of time for a hike up nearby
Flattop Mountain, but your bed at
the quaint Copper Whale Inn beckons.
Youll be going a lot higher than that
tomorrow, anyway.

A 2.5-hour drive north from Anchorage
is a town called Talkeetna. I grew up in
a small Alaskan village, and its the only
place in this area that reminds me of home.
You can walk from one end of town to the
other; on a clear day you can see Denali.
DAY THREE | Virtually every restaurant
menu thus far has included at least one
form of eggs Benedict, but the airy Snow
City Caf serves them with king crab cakes,
so you give theirs a try. A few bites in, you
decide that your decision to opt for the
dish is fully justied, as is the line thats
now snaking out the door.
Meal complete, you wend your way past
the brunchers and down the street to the
glistening Anchorage Museum to take in an
exhibit featuring Native Alaskan artists
who provide a contemporary twist on tra-
ditional visual motifs. Youre particularly
struck by Jerry Laktonens Here Comes
the Sun, an ominous black mask made of
cedar, amber and goose feathers. For sheer
resourcefulness, however, itd be tough
to beat the artifacts in the museums
Smithsonian Arctic Studies Center: Sheep
hoof snow goggles, a lynx tooth necklace,
seal intestine raincoats.... Between these
and the mask, Lady Gaga could outt her
next tour.
Another exhibit, Arctic Flight: A Cen-
tury of Alaska Aviation, inspires you to
embark on another aerial adventure. At
Lake Hood Seaplane Base, the largest air-
port of its kind in the world, you sign in
with Rusts Flying Service and a few minutes
later youre sitting next to Jeff, another
mustachioed pilot in aviator glasses.
As the Cessna follows the Susitna River
north, you start to notice lots of little
planes scaered around the landscape in
odd, remote places. Thats how Alaskans
go camping, Jeff informs you through
your headset, before turning your aen-
tion to Mt. McKinley, aka Denali, The
Great One, which has been looming in
the distance since takeo. With a peak at
20,320 feet above sea level, its the tallest
mountain in North America. Seeing it
up close eradicates all sense of scale. You
circle it for a while as Je, who casually
refers to the extremely dramatic peaks
of the Alaska Range as hills, points out
the routes climbers take to get to the top.

THREE PERFECT DAYS || ALASKA
BOARDING PASS From plates full of native sockeye salmon to aerial adventures near Mt. McKinley, Alaska is one of the last, vast frontiers,
open for exploration. United can take you there with service to Anchorage and, this summer, to Fairbanks. Before you go, remember Premier
Access, the fast lane through the airport. An earlier place in line and the opportunity to board and get comfortable sooner will make your trip
even more relaxing. For detailed schedule information or to book your ight, go to united.com.
You learn that McKinleys north summit
was reached for the rst time in 1910, aer
a bar bet, which seems very Alaskan.
Back in Anchorage at Middle Way Caf,
whose mission statement on its website
praises the virtues of organic, locally
sourced ingredients, you have the quinoa-
and-veggie Unicorn Bowl, a welcome
respite from the surf and turf youve
eaten almost exclusively for days. You
pair the kale-heavy dish with an orange
and pineapple smoothie. Balance found,
you drive over to the Alaska Native Heritage
Center to catch a dance performance by a
group of teenagers in traditional costume.
Youre charmed by just how proud the
youngsters are of their heritageso much
so that when they invite the audience to
sing and dance with them onstage for
their last number, you oblige.
Inspired by the performers colorful
outtstheir jewelry in particularyou
head back downtown for a stop at the
Alaska Native Arts Foundation to pick up
more souvenirs (youve decided the jerky
wont last the trip) before dinner at Simon
& Seaforts. Inside, the cavernous space
is drenched with sunlight and offers a
gorgeous view of Cook Inlet, with Mount
Susitna and the Alaska Range o in the
distance. Youre told youre lucky to be
there for the first shipment of sockeye
salmon from the Copper River in South-
central Alaska, an event that tends to
inspire breathless TV news segments,
so your decision is made for you. Youre
pleased to report that the bright red sh
is deliciously light and moist and entirely
worth the fuss.
Flattop Mountain is back on the table
tonight, and apparently youre not the
only one with that idea. On summer
nights, the place is crawling with hikers,
who, like the curious rock chucks you spot
peeking up out of rock piles and crevices,
know beer than to let a sunny evening
go to waste. At the 3,510-foot summit, you
feel as if youve climbed McKinley itself,
and you sign your name onto a plank
stuck into the ground. You stay up there
awhile, breathing deep, looking past the
city down below, across the water and
toward the mountains reflecting the
warm late-evening twilight.
Just then, a paraglider launches himself
o the edge nearby and sails down toward
the trailhead, looping around in lazy
circles till he reaches the bottom. Wild,
you think. Youll have to try that next time.
Editor at large SAM POLCER cant remember
his most recent bar bet, but hes fairly certain
it did not involve crampons.

THE NEWEST NEIGHBORHOOD at the Anderson Creek Club golf
community in Spring Lake, N.C., will target residents age 52 and
older, and its single-story homes, clubhouse, and other amenities are
designed for aging in place. But you wont nd anything resembling
the traditional picture of nursing care in the plans. One-third to 40
percent of our residents are seniors, says community developer
David Levinson. Theyre retirees, and we have very specic prod-
ucts that are designed for an age-targeted market. What does that
mean? Well, golf, for starters. Swimming pools, community centers
and clubhouses and more than 40 organized activities. Health clubs,
card rooms, boccee ball, horseshoe courts, restaurants and an onsite
inn for visiting relatives and friends. And a very busy group of
neighbors, none of whom have any intention of settling into rocking
chairs for much longer than it takes to drink a cup of cofee. Even for
a very active person, our residents stay very busy, says Levinson.
And hes not alone: study after study shows that the next generation
of seniorsthe Baby Boomerswill stay more active and more con-
nected than any before it.
Its also the generation forecast to live longer than any other, and
with less nancial infrastructure to do so. They wont have the pen-
sions or generous Social Security payments their parents enjoyed,
and the economy being what its been the last several years, have had
to adjust what many think of as a traditional retirement. The baby
boomer generation as a whole has a very active lifestyle, says Emma

REDEFINING THE
GOLDEN YEARS
RETIREMENT AND BEYOND IS CHANGING, AS PEOPLE LIVE
LONGER AND DEMAND MORE ACTIVE LIFESTYLES. SENIOR
LIVING AND CARE IS CHANGING RIGHT ALONG WITH IT.
BY KIM FERNANDEZ
Redefining the Golden Years.indd 105 11/07/2013 10:41
Dickison, president of Home Helpers, which is a franchise organiza-
tion ofering in-home help to seniors. Many of them had started to
retire and are now working on second or third careers in diferent
ways. Theyre not planning to slow down, she says.
Patricia Will, founder and CEO, Belmont Village Senior Living,
Houston, agrees. Were getting another 30 to 40 years of life in
which we can grow, learn, engage, develop social interaction and
work on things we didnt have a chance to do earlier, she says.
Theyre nding ways to get back into and active with their commu-
nities, says Dickison. Theyre nding community volunteer eforts
that are close and passionate to them, and theyre hoping to age in
place and maintain as active and independent a lifestyle as they can.
Kiran Yocom, founder of Seniors Helping Seniors, which fran-
chises businesses that employ senior citizens to help those in their
own generation, says that independent lifestyle is a huge motivator
for her employees. People need to have a purpose, she says. If you
take away the purpose from Mom, she has nothing to do and she
wont know what to do with herself. Her employees do everything
from run errands to play cards with their clients, who live in their
own homes. The people who work for us have worked in other areas
for years, she says, adding that she has employees in their 80s and
90s who care for people their own age or younger. Our people were
nurses, doctors, managers, CFOs, working in sales, teaching. They
walk in having made hundreds of thousands in their careers, and
theyre looking for something that helps them feel good and lets them
make that extra money in retirement.
Long-term, this all translates to senior citizens getting help in their
own homes, both on the healthcare side and with things such as er-
rand running, medication tracking and paying bills, while those who
are healthy and able stay active through jobs, travel, volunteering
and hobbies. All of this translates to a retirement and senior living
experience that will be almost nothing like those of the past. Both for
those who will provide services and those who will use them, thats a
very good thing.
TECHNOLOGY
Most of our clients today dont need 24/7 home care, says Dickison.
They need some support, but not all day and all night. Those re-
maining hours, when having someone right there isnt necessary, are
beginning to be addressed through technology. There are personal
response systems that can help people if they fall, says Dickison.
We have a fall sensor that can feel impacts if someone falls. And
medication management systems help our clients manage their
medication regiments exactly as the doctors order them, to make
sure they get the proper medications at the proper times.
Those kinds of systems are helping seniors stay not only more inde-
pendent, but more engaged than previous generations.
Lisa Tseng, MD, CEO of hi HealthInnovations, sees it every day
in the newest hearing devices her company produces, and says her
clients are doing more thanks to new technology. Baby Boomers are
very driven and have achieved tremendous nancial and workplace
success, she says. They will take that energy and redene retire-
ment as we know it. She saw that rst-hand a few weeks ago, when
a 75-year-old client got in touch about her new hearing aids. While
she enjoys being able to hear her husband and friends a lot better,
she also thanked us for helping her stay competitive in continuing
education classes, says Tseng.
Others say thats a trend thats going to continue. The joke that 80
is the new 60 is probably true, says Terry Fulmer, Ph.D., RN, FAAN,
dean of the Bouve College of Health Sciences, Northeastern Uni-
versity, Boston. Boomers are active. Theyve been active in sports,
theyre highly independent, they go to gyms, they travel all over the
place. These are people who are quite energetic and interesting, and
any stereotype we have about aging will not be useful.

Both they and their caregivers are embracing new innovations...
Were seeing robotics, apps, computerized mechanisms. Smart
homes are very much on the horizon with this group, and thats
exciting. We have seniors running around our communities with
iPads, says Will. They are taking full advantage of cultural events
as well, and its our job, particularly those in assisted living, to
supplement all that seniors can do for themselves with systems and
people to help them stay as independent as they want to be.
Others agree and say the Baby Boomers have no intention of losing
touch with the gizmos and gadgets their children and grandchildren
are using. We have residents who run an iPad user training class
every month, says Chandra Palmer, director of marketing and com-
munications at Westminster Canterbury Shenandoah Village, Win-
chester, Va. Its resident-run and attended by both residents and
staf. We have residents who love letting us know about new things.
Research has shown that seniors who stay connected and socially
active tend to rate themselves as happier, says Barbara Dreyfuss,
vice president of marketing for Ultratec, Inc, which manufactures
the CapTel Captioned Telephone. She says innovation in her area
lets seniors connect in a way thats comfortable, especially for those
who havent embraced the internet. When it gets right down to it,
the telephone is still the most personal, direct way to stay in touch,
Dreyfuss says. And making that easier can mean the world to some-
one whos feeling a little cut of. While the new technologies are im-
provements, she says, In each case, the technology fundamentally
changes how youd go about things.
This all translates, says Will, into healthcare, which is changing
its entire role with older, active adults. Seniors come in to us in
wheelchairs and wind up a year later dancing with the lady next
door, she says. Our company and my peers in the industry have
already, in todays product, begun to acknowledge that the tired,
frail senior who is wheelchair-bound and sedentary is not going to
be our customer. Our adults who are 80 and older are already using
devices, says Fulmer. The National Institute on Aging is bend-
ing the disability curve. How will disabilities become abilities or
modied abilities? The way older people are using apps and games
are keeping their minds stimulated, and people are more likely to
have a positive aging experience. Theyre also spending more time
thinking about their nances.
FINANCE
My dad took an early retirement, says Dickison. He knew he had
that retirement plan for the rest of his life. Social Security and pen-
sions arent a sure thing anymore. And that means more seniors are
continuing to work in some capacity and being more careful with the
money they have for their retirement years.
Others agree. People today, especially those recently retired or
nearing retirement, are faced with nancial challenges that previ-

ous generations didnt encounter, says
Matthew Grove, senior managing direc-
tor, New York Life. With the slow and
steady demise of traditional pension
plans and the fact that Social Security
now replaces a smaller percentage of pre-
retirement income than in generations
past, many people are concerned about
their nances in retirement. Thats part
of the reason many people of retirement
age continue working, either in their
longterm career tracks or on new paths.
We have many residents today who
continue to engage professionally, even into their 80s, 90s, and
100s, says Will. I had lunch with a resident recently whos 107.
At 100, she wrote a book. She had to dictate it because her eye-
sight was failing, but she wrote it. We call it the big idea, says
Andy Khawaja, CEO of Allied Wallet. It doesnt matter how old
you are. Your income should comfortably be generated.
Palmer says her communitys fund for those whose retirement
savings run out is a big concern for prospective residents. If
something like that happens, she says, were not going to kick
them out. We have the funds available to help them. Because of
the stock market over the last few years, people who have in-
vested in that way have questions about that.
Khawaha is seeing more seniors working through affiliate
programs like his companys, which allow people to work from
anywhereand again, technology comes into play. You dont
have to be in an office, he says. You can work from home. You
can work from the beach. You can work from a cruise ship.
Communication with the world is very simple. And that, he
says gives peace of mind to retirement-age people who are
worried about having enough money for the future. Thats

a big group: a 2011 study by AARP found that 43 percent of
participants didnt have enough money to do everything theyd
planned in retirement, and 38 percent said theyd retired before
they could really afford to do so. Thirty-seven percent said they
had to scale back their lifestyles after retiring. Social Security
wasnt designed to accommodate people for 30 years, says
Khawaja. People are living longer, theyre enjoying healthier
lifestyles, and theres a lot of awareness out theredont do
this, dont smoke, play sports..
Grove agrees. People today need to think more carefully about
how they will provide for income during retirement and look
for ways to build their own pension-like stream of guaranteed
lifetime income, he says. Many of his clients have embraced an-
nuity plans that provide that income. It all goes back to the same
kinds of lifestyle issues that those in all facets of senior living say
theyre seeing its a shift in thinking thats not going to change
anytime soon. When it comes to the Baby Boomer generation,
he says, there is a desire for flexibility and control.

HEMISPHERES: If you ofered me a million
dollars to hum a single bar of their music I
couldnt do it.
SPURLOCK: I would win $25 million.
HEMISPHERES: What sort of relationship
did you have with the band? I mean, youre a
middle-aged guydid they look at you funny?
SPURLOCK: It wasnt like I was just
parachuting inI was with them for the
whole kick-o of the tour. But you have
to gain trust, and we talk about that in
the movie. Because once you reach this
level of fame, everybody wants a piece.
HEMISPHERES: Did you get close to them? Did
you sort of, you know, start liking them?
SPURLOCK: Yeah, theyre very likeable;
theyre incredibly charismatic guys.
HEMISPHERES: Theyre twenty-something
multi-millionaires, whats not to like?
SPURLOCK: Yeah, exactly.
HEMISPHERES: But that can go either way,
cant it? I dont know if you watch Game of
Thrones, but theres a teenage emperor who
becomes a tyrant.
SPURLOCK: Oh my gosh, yes, Jorey. They
have not Jorey-ed out, so thats good.
HEMISPHERES: If one of their roadies drops a
speaker, they wont order his death.
SPURLOCK: Thats right. I havent wit-
nessed that yet. Doesnt mean it might
not happen behind closed doors.
HEMISPHERES: If somebody had said to you
seven or eight years ago that youd be in this
position, working on this lm, youd have called
them nuts, wouldnt you?
SPURLOCK: I would have said, absolutely,
youre drinking some Kool-Aid that I
want some of.
HEMISPHERES: If you were the kind of person to
put your movie posters in frames and hang them
around your house in the order of how proud you
were, where would This Is Us t in?
SPURLOCK: Im prey proud of this lm.
I think the storytelling is prey great.
You know, some people might not like all
the stu we make, but Im proud of the
work weve done.
HEMISPHERES: Youre going out on a limb.
People are going to accuse you of selling out.
THE HEMI Q&A: MORGAN SPURLOCK
SPURLOCK: Oh, come on. You saw The
Greatest Movie Ever Sold. Im not selling
out, Im buying in.
HEMISPHERES: But this particular lm
does promise to be your most commercially
successful, right?
SPURLOCK: Well, thats what people say.
People ask, Why would you make this
lm? Well, Im geing to have a budget
that is beyond anything a documentary
could ever have, geing to work with
this huge band, one of the biggest bands
in the world right now. But beyond all
that, as a lmmaker Im going to put
a movie out that, on the day it opens,
will show on more screens and in more
countries than all of my movies ever
have in total, combined, literally, in one
day. So its like, why would you not want
to have an opportunity to do something
like that?
HEMISPHERES: Fair point.
SPURLOCK: And, for me, I think its
exciting to get to challenge yourself
and put yourself in a dierent place
that works dierent muscles as a lm-
maker. I dont want to be pigeonholed
as the guy who just makes subversive
things. I still get to make subversive
lms, but the beauty of this is Ive
goen to dance on both sides of that
line, which is a rare thing.
HEMISPHERES: I deliberately saved the selling-
out question until the end, in case you hung up
on me. Now Im going to ask you possibly the
most dif cult question youre ever going to be
asked: Do you like their music?
SPURLOCK: I have seen 25 concerts on
this tour. I have been to 25 One Direction
shows, so its hard to go to 25 shows and
not like the music.
HEMISPHERES: Very good. Well done.
SPURLOCK: And then I hang up.
If he had to choose, executive editor CHRIS
WRIGHT would name Harry Styles as his
favorite member of One Direction.

approaches retirement age, hes thinking
that auctioneering could be as close as
hell get. Selling cars to a roomful of highly
expectant dealers, he says, is like being the
lead singer in a band.
A recent heart scare convinced Scalco
to make the four-hour trip from his home
in Katy, Texas, to the academy. I realized I
have to take risks, he says over a plate of
chicken-fried steak and mashed potatoes
in the cafeteria at Manheim Auto Auction.
He and his classmates have come here to
watch Boots-Suon do her thing. Scalco is
especially eager to get help with his body
language. Where auctioneers should keep
their hands out and their palms up, Vanna
White-style, he says, Im used to keeping
my hands close to my chest.
Later that day, aer the auction house
has shut down and the massive warehouse
has fallen silent, the students climb up on
the block to practice. Scalco has been given
an imaginary car and a bid to kick things
o. Fieen hundred now, um, sixteen
hundred now six, he says haltingly.
His hands, palms upturned, seem to be
expressing uncertainty rather than inspir-
ing faith. Ms. Boots-Suon has been doing
this for decades, Scalco says aerward.
Ive been doing it since last week.
CHERLYN ALWAYS SAID she wanted
to be a heart surgeon, or a brain surgeon,
or a homicide detective, or an ice skater,
Boots-Sutton says, referring to her
youngest daughter, who, at 18, has started
training to be an auctioneer. Cherlyn
apprentices as her mothers ring man,
which means shes down among the
buyers, drumming up excitement. She
responds to each transaction with a
shrill, two-syllable burst of glee: Yee-YAH!
Cherlyn is only 4 foot 11, but on the oor
shes an intimidating presence.
Mother and daughter live in a trailer
park outside Dallas, along with two of
Boots-Suttons seven grandchildren.
Cherlyns father was never in the pic-
ture, and her older sister is serving time.
She home-schooled herself and has been
working 40-hour weeks as a waitress
since her mid-teens. The auction house
allows her a sense of control, a modicum
of power. The auctioneer and me, Cher-
lyn says, gesturing toward her mother, we
run that lane.
Last year, Cherlyn took a big step toward
living up to her mothers high standards,
taking second place in the Junior Inter-
national Auctioneering Championships
in Spokane, Wash. Shes found a passion
for it. Shes a natural, says Mom, beaming.
Cherlyn doesnt yet share her mothers
total commitmentthere are too many
things she wants to do, like child psychol-
ogy, her latest interest. But for now, shes
willing to stick it out and learn the family
trade. Itll give me a beer life than wait-
ing tables, she says.

TSAPre
TM
is a
TSA-managed and
-operated expedited
screening initiative
available in many U.S. airports. Benets may
include no longer removing the following items
when going through airport security: shoes,
light outerwear/jacket, belt, 3-1-1compliant
bag fromcarry-on, and laptop frombag.
Who is eligible
U.S. citizens who are among select United
Airlines MileagePlus members (eligibility is
determined by the TSA)
U.S. citizens who are members of a Customs
and Border Protection Trusted Traveler
ProgramGlobal Entry, NEXUS or SENTRI
Canadian citizens who are members of
NEXUS
Passengers 12 and younger are allowed
through TSAPre
TM
lanes with eligible
passengers
The TSAuses randomand unpredictable
security measures to determine customer
eligibility for expedited screening on a per-
ight basis. Therefore, you are not guaranteed
expedited screening for every ight even if
you have applied to the program.
MileagePlus members may participate by
joining a CBP Trusted Traveler Program.
Visit globalentry.gov to learn more.
Approved Global Entry/NEXUS/SENTRI
applicants receive a membership/PASS ID
number, also called a Known Traveler Number
(KTN). Enter the KTNinto your MileagePlus
prole at united.com/tsaprescreening. United
will transmit the KTNto the TSAalong with
the Secure Flight Passenger Data in your
reservation so the TSAcan determine your
eligibility for TSAPre
TM
.
If the TSAdetermines a passenger is eligible
for expedited screening, information will be
embedded in the barcode of his or her boarding
pass. When the TSAscans the barcode at des-
ignated checkpoints, eligible passengers will be
directed to an expedited screening lane. Eligible
passengers will also see the TSAPre
TM
logo on
their boarding passes issued online, through
some kiosks and on mobile boarding passes. If
the boarding pass contains the TSAPre
TM
logo
(which will be located on the boarding pass
near the customers name), the passenger can
go to TSAPre
TM
lanes. Its important to note
that while the TSAPre
TM
logo will appear on
all qualifying boarding passes, not all airports
currently ofer a TSAPre
TM
lane.
Tips for customers using Global Entry/
NEXUS/SENTRI to participate in TSAPre
TM
All customers should ensure they are providing
accurate Secure Flight Passenger Data (name,
date of birth, gender, optional Known Traveler
Number and optional Redress Number) in all
reservations. Global Entry/NEXUS/SENTRI
members should ensure that this data matches
what was used on the CBP application, or they
will not be selected to participate.
For a list of airports and checkpoints with
TSAPre
TM
lanes, or to learn more, go to tsa.gov
or united.com/tsaprescreening.

arent boarded, we will transfer your name to the next United ight to your
destination until you are onboard.
What about my bag? Baggage is boarded on the next ight if space is
available, which means your bags may arrive before you. If so, United will
secure the bag until you claim it. See a baggage claim representative.
What if I have to stay overnight? If a ight is canceled to address a
mechanical issue or a similar issue within our control, we will provide
you with a hotel and meal voucher. For uncontrollable eventssuch as

rate; however, United does not cover hotel or meal expenses in this event.

are available. Please see an agent.
What if the reason for my travel no longer exists? If as a result of the
delay or cancellation you opt not to travel, call United reservations
(1-800-UNITED-1) to learn about your options.
Help us help you stay informed. Sign up for Trip Alert, our messaging
service that informs you if your ight is canceled or delayed, at united.com.

CHEERS! Courtesy of Doug Frost, Master Sommelier and Master of Wine
BenMarco Malbec 2009 Mendoza|Most Argentine Malbec is all about the fruit and the spice, but
BenMarcos brilliant winemaker coaxes more layers from his grapes. Malbec would be an excellent
accompaniment to the spices in this duck recipe.
Chefs Tip
Duck is best served medium-rare. Once
rested, slice the breast against the grain
for a beautiful presentation. Serve with
steamed rice and baby bok choy or your
favorite Asian-style vegetables.
