No Holds Barred: What goes up must come down

Blair Sabol takes a good hard look at getting around during the pandemic, including flying, as well as driving distances (such as cross country) and what people are doing to protecting themselves...

No Holds Barred: Making the most of your body & mind

Guest Diary• April 10, 2018.

Fitness and health are big expenses nowadays. Apparently, Millennials are spending more on spin classes, yoga studios, circuit gyms, bikes and clothes and gear than on cars and housing. But isn’t that all good — “taking care of you?” After all, it was Warren Buffet who recently warned the world to “Make the most of your body and ... READ MORE

Flower Power: Garden Parties at Palm Beach

Across the Nation• April 6, 2018.

The Palm Beach calendar is entering its seasonal lull as bridge foursomes go their separate directions and golfers tee off for Northern climes. Amid the final flurry of luncheons, teas and galas, two of the area’s most notable green thumbs, The Garden Club of Palm Beach and The Gentlemen of the Garden, celebrated milestones. GCPB […]...

Schulenberg’s Page: New York, Part CLIV

Guest Diary• April 5, 2018.

1969. Things were heating up! The Vietnam War seemed to be escalating rather than de-escalating as President Nixon had promised! Student uprisings had disrupted many college campuses and even some returning army veterans were speaking out! In New York I was becoming even more aware of how much drug use there was. Amphetamines appeared to be t... READ MORE

Nail The No-makeup Look In Eight Minutes

Beauty• April 4, 2018.

Ten months ago, at 40, I became a first time mother. As a marketing executive turned entrepreneur, I’ve always spent 80% of my time at work. The addition of a baby has been quite an adjustment. I’m still working like a machine but have had to tweak (okay, maybe more than tweak) my routine in […]... READ MORE

April in Paris (and Burgundy)

Travel• March 30, 2018.

When E.Y. “Yip” Harburg wrote the words to “April in Paris” he had never even been there. Poor “Yip” didn’t know what he was missing. Well, I was there in early May. The chestnuts were still in blossom; and not only white but pink! It was splendid, mostly brilliantly sunny, but even a few cool, […]... READ MORE

Guest Diary• March 29, 2018.

I met Bob Olton at the restaurant, Soerabaja. The Saturday Evening Post magazine had just stopped publishing a short time before. It had become extremely conservative and public tastes had changed. During the 1940s and ’50s it had reflected postwar Americans’ contented view of life: wholesome and traditional. But Vietnam had chang... READ MORE

Sarasota Social Diary: The Botanical Gardens and the Ringling

Across the Nation• March 27, 2018.

When Jane Holzer, or Baby Jane Holzer, as she is widely known, saw preparations for the exhibit: “Warhol: Flowers in the Factory” at Sarasota’s Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, she gave it the ultimate blessing after seeing the plans and enjoying a dinner capped with a Warhol-inspired banana split. “Andy would have loved it,” she told [&hel...

Lip Lift: Getting the Perfect Pout

Beauty• March 26, 2018.

Do you desire fuller, poutier more youthful lips? Have you tried injectable fillers but came away dissatisfied? Perhaps the procedures resulted in the dreaded trout pout or maybe you’ve tired of the frequency and cost of repeated treatments. Still, you are not ready to give up on a desirable kisser. So, are there any lasting […]... READ MORE

Charles H. Beckley Mattresses

House• March 23, 2018.

Photographs by Jeff Hirsch & Pierre Crosby Sian’s search for a new mattress led to us to one of our more unusual interviews in a 19th century red brick mattress factory in the South Bronx, the premises of Charles H. Beckley Inc., a family business still run by Ted, Tim and Ken Marschke, who are […]... READ MORE

We were getting used to Richard Nixon as President. So far, not so good! There were still protests everywhere and in spite of Nixon’s attempts to make good his promise to bring us together it wasn’t working! Supposedly Henry Kissinger would be a wise adviser to the president but a short time after he joined the administration the US... READ MORE

What an amazing decade — the ’60s. And how amazing to be living in New York during the ’60s! When I arrived in New York in 1960 Eisenhower was for a few more months still President. I took so much for granted but didn’t think that much about any of it. I was excited to feel that I’d finally […]... READ MORE

Horse Power: Red Hills International Horse Trials

Across the Nation• March 14, 2018.

The 20th Anniversary Red Hills International Horse Trials, a top-ranked Eventing competition, was held at the sublime 670-acre Elinor Klapp Phipps Park in Tallahassee. Red Hills offers a refreshing close-up of riders and their horses, far from the tame refinements found at Wellington’s Winter Equestrian Festival. My first Eventing and always a de... READ MORE

Guest Diary• March 8, 2018.

Those last days of 1968! There was so much going on — aside from all the political chaos. It was as if New York was on an energetic social cultural binge to balance the energy expended on warfare, police riots and anti war demonstrations! The city was in full swing, the anger subverted and filtered into […]... READ MORE

Guest Diary• March 1, 2018.

So after 1968 and all its turmoil we were staggering into 1969 with Nixon telling us in his inaugural speech that we “should all stop shouting at one another“! That was easier said than done! But the Paris Peace Talks were planned with Henry Cabot Lodge going as administrator. He had previously been the American ambassador to South Vietn... READ MORE

Hair Rituel by Sisley: A hair-raising experience

Beauty• March 1, 2018.

Scalp health equals hair health says Jim Maki, President of Sisley USA. The hair is born and grows from the hair bulb which rests beneath the scalp. And like the skin, the scalp is irrigated by a multitude of small blood vessels that provide all the nutrients needed for hair growth and suppleness. So, “the […]... READ MORE

Guest Diary• February 22, 2018.

1968. The end of a tumultuous year! A year full of dissent, assassinations, war and certainly protest! It was frequently being said that there hadn’t been as much violent dissent since the Civil War. There had been a lot during the Depression but it was being said that this was worse! Johnny Meyer decided to end the […]... READ MORE

It was December and 1968 was boiling to a close while everyone hoped that things would calm down in the US and Nixon would make good on his promise to end the war and bring us all together! So far nothing had changed and I’d come to Los Angeles for Christmas with my family. Barbra was shooting “On […]... READ MORE

She’s Got Legs

Beauty• February 9, 2018.

“Thank you Beyoncé and everybody for making it OK to have shapely buttocks and legs,” says leading dermatologist, Ellen Marmur, MD. “In the past, it was all about getting rid of the fat and getting our legs to be made smaller and smaller. Now it’s really about keeping shapely.” In fact, legs seem to have […]... READ MORE

December, 1968: New York City continued to roil with dissent! While there were wildly decorated hippie head shops opening uptown and downtown with even wilder merchandise, those same establishments were in full support of the protests against the draft, the war and the government in general. Downtown, the Lower East Side was beginning to be thou... READ MORE

Guest Diary• February 1, 2018.

1968 was staggering toward 1969 with Richard Nixon elected President and the war in Vietnam continuing while cities were still seething with riots and demonstrations against the war and the drafting of young men. I was bunkered in my apartment working on daily illustration project deadlines with only New York Pacifica Network’s listener supp... READ MORE
