ESTILO
La mansión A delightful discovery awaits visitors who enter the impressive gates at 9639 Louetta Road. This very private13-acre compound offers the luxuriously casual yet sophisticated ambience of a country estate in Round Top or Brenham – but within 35 minutes of downtown Houston. Superbly located for purchase as a primary residence or weekend home, this secluded property would also serve beautifully as a corporate retreat or event venue. The winding drive traverses wooded, rolling terrain alongside a picturesque lake and meandering creek. A rope swing stationed above a cascading waterfall clearly indicates that the lake functions as an oldfashioned swimming hole and is a reminder that this elegant estate is a playground for an active lifestyle. With the luxury of acreage, outdoor amenities abound and include a grotto pool with a beach; a Mission-style outdoor fireplace; a pool cabana with wet bar, grill and pull-up seating; a full-sized Laykold tennis court; a volleyball pit; and multiple gathering terraces front and rear surrounded by
mature gardens. The stunning California Ranch-style home, clad in Texas Stone, is entered through tall glass and iron doors sheltered beneath a grand porte cochere. Inside, a large open dining room flanks the entry and injects a gentle note of formality. The foyer transitions into the enormous great room with a triple-height open-truss ceiling; tall, deeply recessed windows display lovely backdrops of the surrounding loggia, stone terraces, pool, and gardens. Living is easy here with pillow-cut travertine floors and multiple conversation areas surrounding a massive Texas Stone fireplace whose stone over mantel reaches the ceiling. The great room is anchored by a semi-circular walk-in bar at one end and an open stone archway into the kitchen at the opposing end. Double-height ceilings, stone arches and furniturequality cabinetry distinguish the kitchen and make it an ideal venue when entertaining. Amenities include slab granite countertops, professional grade HOUSTONlatinos.com

Privately situated at the end of a short hall behind the great room, the spacious master suite encompasses a seating area with a raised granite fireplace; windows overlooking the terraces and pool; and an adjoining study that sides the great room. The master bathroom offers lavish appointments that include a double-access walk-in travertine shower with multiple showerheads; a footed soaking tub; granite countertops; a television cabinet; and a glass door to the pool. The custom-designed U-shaped walk-in closet provides abundant storage, a vanity with triple mirror, built-in chests-ofdrawers, and a packing shelf. Secondary bedrooms occupy a separate wing; all have private, richly-appointed bathrooms, custom-designed walk-in closets, and glass doors to the pool or side terrace. A staircase behind the kitchen accesses the attic and a huge, temperature-controlled storage room. appliances and an inviting island with pull-up seating. A corner space between windows serves as the breakfast area and enjoys views of the pool and grounds. Augmenting the gathering space of the great room are a recessed wine room with an iron gate, tasting shelf and alcove bottle storage; an expansive game room surrounded by windows that accommodates a television/conversation area, ping pong and pool tables, and gym equipment; and a home theater with stadium seating, projector and movie screen.

International high-profile criminal Mel D has always been able to be a step ahead Interpol. For four years now they have been trying to put a stop to her activities, with the help of the secret agencies from several countries in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. An intelligence tip has put the evil woman again under surveillance, now in American soil, where she’s assembling her team and getting ready for her top mission yet: destabilize world economy through the oil industry. Her base of operations: A Mel D-style fabulous mansion in Spring, Texas, just miles away from Exxon’s new world headquarters, where the new and revolutionary form of synthetic oil is being developed. A life surrounded by exotic cars, expensive mansions, gorgeous leathers and diamonds and sophisticated weapons, doesn’t help her go unnoticed.

Mel D falls under her own weakness: her unstoppable crave for style and glamour. Her desire for the best opens a door of opportunity for the CIA and MI6 to filter an agent -a top makeup artist-, known as Damien, who visits the woman at the mansion. He gets as close to the beautiful Asian as anyone would ever want to get, and critical intelligence about her logistics are now in the open. An insider at Tactical Firearms is providing the evil team with all the sophisticated gun-power they could possibly need, including a spectacular Russian AK-47 covered by 18K gold.

Entre los autos deportivos BMW ha logrado posicionarse en la primera línea con un vehículo que reúne el poder, la elegancia y el desempeño que pocos en su género alcanzan. El M6 difinitivamente está hecho para satisfacer al más exigente de los conductores.
HOUSTONlatinos.com

E
ste nuevo año el M6 de BMW se viene con todo, con cambios como la transmisión manual de seis velocidades. También la radio por satélite y el cerrado suave de las puertas automáticas, que evita que los pasajeros las cierren de un portazo, vienen en el modelo estándar. Lo que más atrae de este vehículo no es sólo su imponente rendimiento sino su elegancia y estilo. El BMW M6, basado en la línea Series 6, se encuentra rodeado de un lujoso interior con una gran variedad de equipos de alta tecnología como visión nocturna con detección de peatones, una pantalla de visualización frontal, faros LED, cámara de visión trasera con indicador de obstáculos y líneas de asistencia y cámaras aéreas y laterales. BMW quiso llegar a todos los conductores, especialmente a aquellos que se aferran al pedal de embrague, agregando la opción de la transmisión manual con seis velocidades, aunque la versatilidad de este vehículo se debe a la gran cantidad de sistemas electrónicos que lo transforman en una bestia con sólo tocar un botón. Se puede seleccionar la calidad del manejo, suave o rígido, aunque con 560 caballos de fuerza y un motor V8 biturbo de 4,4 litros, se puede sentir la agresividad en cualquier modo. El diseño inteligente y la construcción sólida de BMW son evidentes en todos los rincones de este vehículo. Se lo compara con el 2014 Aston Martin V8 Vantage, el 2014 Porsche 911 o el 2014 Audi R8 por el imponente poder que posee; pero si además de fuerza y rendimiento, el conductor busca lujo, el M6 es el mejor camino a seguir. Disponible en modelo convertible, cupé y Sedán de cuatro puertas, todos con un nivel único de acabado. El modelo estándar incluye amortiguadores de suspensión adaptativa, llantas de aleación de 19 pulgadas, limpiaparabrisas automático, espejo retrovisor interior y exteriores con ajuste anti-deslumbramiento y plegado eléctrico, sensores de estacionamiento delanteros y traseros con indicador acústico y visual y puertas automáticas con cerrado suave. En los modelos cupé se puede elegir entre techo de fibra de carbón o techo corredizo. En el modelo convertible, el techo cuenta con una operación eléctrica y un vidrio en la ventana trasera que se puede subir y sirve para bloquear el viento.
Los asientos delanteros tienen calefacción, soporte lumbar y 2 posiciones de memorias para conductor y acompañante. La configuración del modo de conducción se realiza a través del volante. En la parte electrónica, el M6 incluye Interfaz USB y Bluetooth para 3 teléfonos móviles (1 para reproducción de audio), sistema de navegación con comandos de voz y pantalla a color de 10.2 pulgadas, sistema de sonido Hi-Fi Professional con 16 altavoces (12 altavoces en el modelo convertible) con reproductor de CD, satélite y radio de alta definición. Con su motor V8 biturbo que produce 560 caballos de fuerza y 500 libras-pies de torque, esta impresionante máquina levanta una velocidad que va de 0 a 60 mph en 4.2 segundos. En lo que respecta a seguridad, todos los BMW M6 2014 vienen equipados con sistema antibloqueo de frenos (ABS), BMW Head-Up Display con proyección en el parabrisas del régimen de revoluciones, control Dinámico de Estabilidad (DSC), bolsas de aire frontales, laterales y de cabeza, kit de primeros auxilios con triángulo de emergencia, entre otros. Para ser un vehículo de seis dígitos, el interior de este BMW no defrauda y cumple la promesa de ser una de las experiencias más lujosas del momento, con ricos acabados de fibra de carbono y material artesanal que se hace evidente por donde se lo mire. Los asientos delanteros aseguran comodidad y soporte. Lamentablemente, los asientos traseros -al igual que todos los modelos de autods de su tipo- no son tan cómodos para los pasajeros, excepto si se trate de niños, ya que cuenta con un espacio muy reducido. Ya sea conduciendo a 35 por una calle residencial de Houston, o levantando la velocidad en el beltway 8, el 2014 BMW M6 nos saca una sonrisa y nos deleita al conducirlo, por su dirección, transmisión y aceleración que siempre se adapta a cada estado de ánimo. Quiero asimismo destacar la extrema estabilidad y pegue al piso, muy característico de todos los BMW, que se aprecia a altas velocidades. Te invito a visitar a María o a Walter en Momentum BMW WEST, en el 15865 Katy Freeway, para darle una manejada de prueba a esta joya de la tecnología alemana.
