Bugatti 110 Ans de
by Chantele Machado
World-renowned for its unparalleled portfolio of automotive masterpieces, along with an unmatched racing record, the illustrious Bugatti marque has long been synonymous with extravagant opulence, inimitable artistry and unrivaled power.
Read on to explore some of the most revolutionary designs developed throughout Bugatti’s 110-year history; vehicles which are today numbered amongst
the most valuable classics in the world and crafted from founder Ettore Bugatti’s philosophy that “Nothing is too beautiful, nothing is too expensive.”
Bugatti develops the Type 10, which was shortly after modified as the Type 13 and entered in several races by Bugatti’s longstanding assistant Ernest Friederich.
1912 The Type 18 – nicknamed Black Bess – is introduced, being one of the first street-legal race cars with a top speed of 100 mph; one of the fastest in the world at the time.
1922 Bugatti unveils the Type 29 with a revolutionary design reminiscent of a cigar. The Type 29 took second place that year at the Strasbourg Grand Prix. That same year, the Type 30 was unveiled as Bugatti’s first touring car.
1923 The Type 32 arrives, aptly dubbed The Tank, featuring a unique body shell with a wing-shaped cross-section. Overall, it was not a successful racing car, however, it did take third place in the 1923 French Grand Prix.
1924 Production begins on the famed Bugatti Type 35 with innovations such as the now iconic horseshoe shaped radiator grille and spoked aluminum wheels. The Type 35 became the most successful racing car of all time securing over 2,000 victories in a period of less than 10 years.
1926 The legendary Type 41 Royale is introduced as one of the most extravagant and most expensive vehicles at the time.
1934 The Type 57 is unveiled, offering for the first time five different body styles including convertible and coupe versions. Two years later, Jean Bugatti introduces what is considered his ‘crowning achievement,’ the Type 57S Atlantic. Jean’s upgraded model sported an avant-garde fastback body, a significantly lower ground clearance and reached a top speed of 200km/h. Only four were produced, three of which are accounted for.

1910
1991 The EB 110 is unveiled on 15 September to mark Ettore Bugatti’s 110th birthday; boasting a quad-turbocharged V12 engine and the world’s first carbon fiber chassis.
1998 Newly branded Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. debuts its first concept vehicle, the EB 118, at the Paris Auto Show in October. Three more concept cars are introduced the following year; the EB 218, EB 18/3 Chiron and EB 18/4 Veyron.
2001 Bugatti begins series production of the Veyron 16.4, a modified version of the EB 18/3; followed by the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport (2008), Super Sport (2010) and Grand Sport Vitesse (2012).
2016 Bugatti presents the world’s first production car with 1,500hp, the Chiron, named after renowned Bugatti driver Louis Chiron who took first place in the 1931 Monaco Grand Prix.
2018 Bugatti unveils the Divo; an agile and dynamic one-off model that stems from their philosophy ‘form follows performance’ with an uncompromising pursuit of the utmost aerodynamic efficiency. Only 40 units were produced.
2018 Bugatti teams up with LEGO® to produce the Lego Technic Bugatti Chiron kit. Later that year, the company revealed a drivable full-size version of the Lego Technic Chiron, using more than one million Lego pieces.
2019 Bugatti unveils the Chiron Sport ‘110 ans Bugatti’ at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, to celebrate its incomparable 110-year-long history while paying tribute to France with the country’s flag adorning different elements of the car.
2019 Paying homage to the fourth all-black 57 SC Atlantic designed by Ettore’s eldest son Jean, missing since the Second World War, Bugatti presents the La Voiture Noire. Only one model was built and sold for an incredible €16.7 million, or $18.9 million; making it the most expensive new car ever built!

An era of mindfulness is upon us. As a growing number of studies promote the many benefits of mindfulness on nearly every aspect of health, more people now than ever are seeking and practicing holistic and unconventional wellness practices in an effort to heighten awareness of their bodies, thoughts and emotions. Here is a selection of some of the latest, and renewed, wellness trends making headlines.
The Ancient Art of
Ayurveda takes Center Stage in Holistic Medicine Ayurveda is a holistic system of natural healing that originated more than 5,000 years ago in the ancient Vedic culture of India. In Sanskrit, Ayurveda translates to ‘the science of life,’ and is considered by many scholars to be the oldest healing science. Tibetan and traditional Chinese medicine both have their roots in Ayurveda, as well as healing systems now familiar in the West, like homeopathy and polarity therapy. More recently, this ancient medicinal system has been gaining traction in its own right with an increasing number of spas and wellness centers around the world offering consultations in Ayurveda, Ayurvedic beauty products and Ayurvedic herbal supplements. According to Ayurvedic theory, each individual embodies a particular pattern of three fundamental energies that make up their own constitution. These biological energies, vata, pitta and kapha, or doshas as they are known, derive from the five elements of air, water, fire, earth and space. Together they express a unique blend of physical, mental and emotional characteristics which, when out of balance, are thought to disrupt the natural flow of prana, the vital energy of life. An imbalance of doshas in the body, depending on which, is considered to result in a myriad of health complications including anxiety, inflammation, disease and more. The practice itself is founded on the belief that the body and mind are inextricably connected, and that nothing has greater power to heal the body than the mind. It places great emphasis on prevention and the promotion of health through making adjustments to diet, sleep, exercise and overall lifestyle to bring about balance and dynamic integration between the environment, spirit, body and mind.

Cannabidiol, more commonly referred to as CBD, is one of 113 known cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. Unlike its sister compound tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, known for its psychoactive and intoxicating qualities, CBD is not mind altering and does not deliver the high people often associate with the plant. It is touted by advocates for providing a range of health and medicinal benefits boasting its anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety and analgesic properties. Thanks to legislation passed in recent years in multiple countries throughout the world, including the UK, New Zealand, Canada and the US,
Cannabidiol CBD are Initials to Know CBD oil and CBD-infused products have been emerging more and more in the mainstream beauty and wellness market. Premiere luxury retailers like Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom have begun carrying a variety of CBD-infused goods such as relaxing sleeping masks, anti-inflammatory eye balms and pain-relieving lotions, among many more. Barneys New York has also embraced the trend having recently opened doors to The High End, an exclusively cannabis lifestyle and wellness concept shop they launched in Beverly Hills. Several upscale spas and health clubs are also reaching new highs by incorporating CBD products into their treatments. Resorts such as The Ritz Carlton in Los Angeles, the St. Regis Aspen and the W Austin offer services using an assortment of CBD-infused oils, lotions, masks and scrubs.
Intravenous (IV) drip therapy, often referred to as ‘hydration therapy’ or ‘vitamin therapy,’ has been increasingly injecting its way into the center stage of the wellness movement. Enthusiasts of the trend, including celebrities Chrissy Teigen and Kim Kardashian, praise the numerous benefits these infusions have to offer, which range widely from enhanced energy and a boosted immune system to faster muscle recovery and rejuvenated skin. Thanks to its growing popularity, IV-focused lounges and spa IV treatments are now becoming ever more available around the world in the same way as massages and exercise classes. Individuals can choose from an array of vitamin therapies, each offering a customized combination of nutrients intended to result in a specific effect. The key advantage to this approach is that it
IV Drip Therapy Getting Wellness in the Bag bypasses the digestive system to deliver a concentrated dose of nutrients directly into the bloodstream in levels that would be impossible to absorb if taken orally. It’s become an ideal quick pick-me-up for frequent travelers, athletes, weekend warriors and more, as the procedure can take as little as 15 to 30 minutes and patients can continue on with their daily lives immediately after. For those looking for more immediate gratification, many hydration therapy establishments offer single injections of nutrients as well, commonly known as ‘booster shots.’

Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) has become one of the coolest new trends in health and wellness. Though the concept of using freezing temperatures for localized healing is nothing new, its apparent physiological, emotional and beauty benefits to the entire body have increased its popularity among professional athletes, celebrities and trend-loving wellness buffs. The treatment involves being enclosed in a controlled environment while exposing the body to sub-zero temperatures between -150 and -200 degrees Fahrenheit (-101° C – -129° C) for a period of two to four minutes. The extremely cold temperatures experienced during WBC are believed to promote several positive results including accelerated muscle recovery, reduced inflammation, increased metabolic rate and rejuvenation of the skin. On the other end of the temperature spectrum is Infrared Sauna Therapy. Unlike traditional saunas that have been around for thousands of years and work by creating an intensely heated environment; infrared saunas make use of infrared light to heat the cells of the body from the inside out. This method of heat therapy is more comfortable and effective because it is more tolerable for greater periods of time,
High-Tech Recovery takes Temperatures to the Extreme allowing the skin to reap its real health benefits. Apart from improving immune health and increasing the number of antioxidants in the body, it is widely supported among the medical community that regular sauna visits lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of certain cardiac problems. Many infrared saunas also feature chromotherapy in which different hues of color are displayed with lights to achieve additional benefits. Red, for example, is said to increase energy while yellow is meant to inspire creativity.

Possibly one of the most widely known wellness trends throughout history is the practice of meditation. The ancient custom dates back as many as 5,000 years, and has been an important component to several cultures, including Buddhist, Hindu and Jewish traditions, among others; from which hundreds, if not thousands, of styles have derived. Many of these ‘new’ breeds have begun to take off in the mainstream as more people become increasingly comfortable with the practice and have an interest in exploring it further. One of these emerging techniques is sophrology, or ‘dynamic meditation,’ which combines the elements of mindful meditation, breathing exercises, guided visualization and gentle movement to help individuals reach a sense
The Latest
Meditation Practices are Shaking Things Up of calm and self-awareness. Developed in Spain in the 1960s, it has been popular in certain regions of Europe for decades, but only recently has it been making strides throughout the rest of Europe, Asia, the UK and US. Tension and Trauma Release Exercises (TRE), dubbed ‘shaking meditation,’ is another approach gaining acclaim in the wellness world, especially among those who struggle with the stillness of conventional meditative practices. This method involves a series of controlled exercises, like calf raises and single-leg squats, that push the body to a place where the muscles begin to tremble. The natural tremors are meant to help release deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma by retraining the brain how to cope and respond to such distress.

BROKER Q&A
Wendy Harman: Point B Realty How did you start in real estate? During the summer of 1992, I was living in Seattle and one of my friends and I randomly chose Martha’s Vineyard as a vacation spot for a recreational bike trip. An inveterate traveler, I had long maintained a policy to never revisit the same destination twice. After one visit to Martha’s Vineyard, I was smitten. So, I came back five summers in a row and then in fall of 1997, I made the big decision to move to the island year-round. Over the first few years, I embarked on a few entrepreneurial ventures and also built and sold my first home. Bitten by the “real estate bug,” I obtained my real estate license in 2006 and went to work at a small boutique brokerage working in both vacation rentals and sales. Then in the fall of 2008, I left with ideas to open my own real estate brokerage.
What path has your career taken? If timing is everything then deciding to start Point B Realty in the fall of 2008 should have been calamitous. I thought I was so smart starting my own company, but the market crashed within the first thirty days. Despite the market downturn, I leased a retail storefront and opened our first office in downtown Edgartown the following spring. It was a

THE SHARD London, England, United Kingdom Slicing through London’s skyline like a beautiful piece of broken glass stands the tallest structure in the city, as well as the country: The Shard. Conceived as a “vertical city” in which people could live, work, eat and play, the Neo-Futuristic skyscraper is home to world-class offices, award-winning restaurants, the 5-star Shangri-La Hotel, exclusive residences and the UK’s highest observatory platform.
WHY VISIT: At a height of 244 meters, and nearly twice that of any other vantage point in London, The Shard’s open-air viewing platform on the 72nd floor offers visitors unparalleled 360-degree views for up to 40 miles. A second indoor observation deck accessible on the 69th floor features large touchscreens which enable visitors to explore the city around them in real-time, identifying places of interest in the user’s line of sight, providing information on 200 landmarks and in 10 languages.
