The next- generation Escalade / ESV. Is the arrival of the most anticipated generation of Cadillac’s crown jewel worthy merely of an introduction, or more of a coronation? We would argue the latter considering the level of design, craftsmanship and detail that transformed it into the epitome of luxury. The charge of taking an American icon and elevating it to new heights of perfection, perfection that existed solely in the hearts and imagination of the world’s finest designers and artisans was as exhilarating and monumental as the vehicle itself. Welcome to the Cadillac of Escalades.

From the Publisher

One doesn’t need to be reminded that February is the peak of season in Naples. And this certainly appears to be one of the busiest in many years. One can’t help but notice what a bustling “not-so-little-town-anymore” Naples has become. While still managing to keep its charm, Naples once again has become a highly sought-after destination for many, with luxury home prices seeing a notable rise compared with previous years. Of course, that is keeping the realtors, developers and retailers hopping. It also means many more people will be arriving on our social scene, which itself appears to be expanding fast. My office looks like a billboard, with all the beautiful invitations to various charity events that this philanthropic town is known for.

It is a daunting task, but we have selected a few of our favorites to sponsor and hope that you might join us in supporting some of these wonderful charities. We start with Wine Women & Shoes—need I say more? This two-day event begins with a luncheon February 5 and a dinner the following day, all benefiting the Cancer Alliance of Naples. On February 7, we go right into the Fine Art of Living—a gourmet excursion with food from around the world. Might I suggest you skip lunch that day? This event benefits the Archangel Fund for Collier County Charities. Without missing a beat, the Celebrity Martini Glass Auction follows on February 8. Wait until you see the amazing array of incredibly creative art placed right onto the glasses by numerous artists and signed by top celebs. Brenda Melton is the mastermind behind this event concept that benefits veterans’ charities.

Less than two weeks later, you definitely don’t want to miss Jane Pauley speaking at The League Club annual luncheon. This event is always a sellout. Finally, we wrap up the month on February 24 with the Little Black Dress event that benefits the Garden of Hope and Courage. We fight over these highly coveted tickets!

The specific details on these events and the charities they support are listed at naplesillustrated.com. However, these are only a handful of the events this month, so please make sure that you check our Naples Charity Register or sign up for our On the Town Newsletter for many more weekly events that may interest you.

From the Editor

Naples boasts a vibrant, active community. The mild temperatures and beautiful backdrop of the Paradise Coast draw people outdoors in droves, whether it’s simply to take a stroll—perhaps for a shopping excursion along Fifth Avenue South or Third Street South—or take part in their sport of choice.

In this month’s Sports & Leisure issue, we offer insights into a variety of outdoor activities that are particularly popular among Neapolitans.

For example, it seems that you can’t even drive a few miles without passing yet another golf club. Our beautiful town has some of the best golf courses around and there is certainly demand for them among locals and snowbirds alike. This is also one of the most exciting spots for serious anglers, which is no surprise considering we’re surrounded by the Gulf and stunning waterways. Of course, tennis enthusiasts are always looking to improve their game on one of the many private courts around town, too. And we can’t forget about the cyclists. When driving in Naples, I’m always keeping one eye out for bikes; there are countless picturesque paths to explore the beauty of Southwest Florida on two wheels. Whether you’re passionate about fishing, cycling, golfing or tennis, head to “A Perfect Fit,” starting on page 78, for ways to customize sports equipment to improve your game, or simply help you enjoy it in the most fashionable style.

If your love of sports is also mixed with a passion for animals, you won’t want to miss “Riding High,” beginning on page 90, where we profile four local equestrians to learn more about their competitive spirit and their horse sense.

Speaking of four-legged creatures we love, turn to page 174 for help with one of the most common behavioral issues among dogs: separation anxiety. We have expert advice on what causes it, as well as seven ways to help calm your canine.

reasons to log on now 1. For those of us living in Florida, the unofficial start of spring begins

recipe

Grilled Mignonette Butter Oysters One of the most delicious reasons to love the cooler months in Florida is peak Apalachicola oyster season.

Hailed for their size and mellow flavor, you can always enjoy them on the half shell or fire up the grill and try this recipe.

Ingredients ½ pound unsalted butter, soften to room temperature ½ cup red wine vinegar 2 tbs. minced shallot ½ tsp. cracked black pepper Pinch of finely chopped parsley 3 dozen oysters

Light a grill. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse butter with red wine vinegar, minced shallot and cracked pepper until fully blended. Place butter in plastic wrap; form into a log roughly 2 inches thick and refrigerate until firm; slice into 36 pats, one for each oyster.

On the hot grill, place the oysters flat side up. Cover grill and cook until the oysters open, about five minutes.

Remove oysters from the grill and quickly remove the top shell, keeping as much liquor inside as possible. Loosen the oyster from the bottom shell with an oyster shucker. Add a pat of butter to each and return to the grill. Cover and cook until butter melts and the oysters are hot—about one minute. Serve immediately.

For more oyster recipes, go to naplesillustrated.com/ oysterrecipes 26

What’s On Your Mind?

We asked NI readers: what is the ideal date night in Naples—and where are the most romantic spots?

this month with Major League Baseball’s spring training and exhibition games. Players begin reporting for practice, including the Boston Red Sox pitchers and catchers heading to JetBlue Park in Fort Myers on the 20th. For a roundup of all the baseball festivities, go to naplesillustrated .com/springtraining

“For us, it’s strolling hand in hand down Fifth Avenue, stopping for a glass of Champagne at Osetra, then a fabulous seafood meal at Truluck’s. Then back to Fifth where we’ll enjoy the lights, the atmosphere and maybe a chocolate ice cream cone to end the night!”

Renee Lauzon-Martin “Veranda E at The Escalante Hotel— romantic hideaway in the heart of it all!”

Phyllis Kaufman Ershowsky “The gazebo down on Third Street South, the place I was married. How could there be anywhere more romantic?”

Insider Q&A

JANE PAULEY

New Chapters Colleen Duffley

Jane Pauley, a familiar face to Americans since she first lit up TV screens in 1976 as a cohost on NBC’s Today show, has learned a lot through the years about reinvention. At the annual League Club fundraising luncheon this month, she will share stories about her experiences in her award-winning career in television, from Today to the series Life Reimagined Today, to her current role on CBS News Sunday Morning. Pauley will also offer insights from her latest book, Your Life Calling, Reimagining the Rest of Your Life, which tells the stories of people who followed their passions and found fresh purpose and a zest for life. —Kat Smith

047-Insider Opener-0215.indd 47

NI: What are some takeaways from your latest book?

Pauley: In the months since the book came out, I’ve met thousands of people, and the book’s ideas resonate up and down the spectrum, from 30-somethings just getting families started and careers going who are looking forward almost aspirationally at those of us who have the freedom and the opportunity to do interesting new things. By the 40s those impulses get really urgent, and people often start experimenting, thinking, “Maybe a career change will speak to this yearning that I have.” In your 50s, you start calculating your opportunities. Often, looking at an audience, I don’t know what percentage are frightened of the unknown and the future, especially if like me, they don’t have a clear picture of what it would look like.

Does the book make others less afraid of the unknown?

Yes! Absolutely. The people who have an answer to the question, “What’s my passion?” might find my book interesting, but they probably aren’t looking for answers. I wrote this book for people who were yearning for something more and young and healthy enough to recognize the future was their responsibility to fill. You have to be available to opportunity and put yourself in the path of rediscovering something, or discovering it for the first time.

After interviewing people, did you discover any common threads that led to success in “second acts?”

That hunger to be creative or stay productive, or engaged in a community. There’s nothing grandiose in my book about finding a second career, or starting a world-changing nonprofit—though there is one of those in my book—they can be small changes that give our lives more balance and enable us to nurture a creativity.

Tell us something about your latest chapter.

After four decades at NBC, I have a CBS News ID. It’s like someone blew a little breath on a career I thought was over. When CBS offered me this job, even though it wasn’t my goal to have a new career in television, here I am.

The League Club’s luncheon, “Your Life Calling, A Conversation With Jane Pauley, Presented by IberiaBank,” will be held February 19 at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Resort, Naples. Proceeds benefit the club’s Community Trust Fund, which has raised more than $3 million for charitable grants to numerous deserving local nonprofits over the last 28 years. (theleagueclub.org)

12/30/14 4:22 PM

Styling and Designs by Matthew Huddleston and Louis Boutier, 50Fifty Creative Services Photography by Vanessa Rogers

Inspired by the Old World charm of Venice, Italy, this romantic tablescape conjures up visions of the Grand Canal, where lovers share kisses in gondolas and life is but a dream. This boat dock at a private home in Naples is styled to resemble the view from Venetian palazzos, replete with their distinctive striped mooring poles. The crystal pieces are a nod to Murano glass, named after the Venetian island made famous for its exquisite glass creations. Atop the ruby red Italian linen, the place setting is Italian Ginori china to add glimmer, richness and romanticism. The centerpiece showcases classic roses, yet also includes a playful mix of dahlias, peonies, rose hip, black privet berries, long-hanging pepper berries and sumac.

The vibrant colors go beyond simple reds to include magenta, burgundy and deep purple tones. The clamshell, also spilling with gorgeous blooms, captures the Adriatic Sea with its gilded wavy shape.

There is also a hint of imperfection in the chandelier that adds a bit of intrigue. “The ghost chairs with the chandelier show the antiquity of Venice, the beautiful ancestral imperfection,” says Matthew Huddleston of 50Fifty Creative Services in Naples, who designed the tablescape with Louis Boutier. “Imperfect but still beautiful.

The idea is that nothing has to be tossed away just because it’s not exactly what it was at one point.” While the chandelier spells ambience, the candles surrounding the table add a special glow as the evening wears on. A romantic gift awaits—a hand-tied bouquet of classic roses placed just so on one of the chairs. —Teri Evans

Island Style

Colleen Duffley

Widely famous as a British Royal insider and second cousin to Prince Charles, India Hicks has also staked her claim as a prominent designer, lifestyle entrepreneur, TV commentator and author. On February 21, Hicks will take the stage in the Distinguished Speaker Series, part of the Luxury Home Design Show at Miromar Design Center. NI talked with Hicks about her distinctive Bahamian island style. —Anna Bjorlin

Ericka Basile, an animal lover and owner of four dogs and six cats, dreamed of creating a community gathering space where humans could enjoy conversation, coffee and snacks while playing with free-roaming, adoptable cats. Planet Tails, her new pet lifestyle center and Florida’s first cat café, recently celebrated its grand opening. True to her vision, Planet Tails offers on-site cat adoptions through Collier County Domestic Animal Service along with cat boarding, doggy day-care, a pet educational center and unique products from independent makers. Basile plans to hold a variety of events, from social get-togethers such as Yappy Hour and Purrtini Night, where owners bring their pets and sip cocktails, to educational sessions in which local veterinarians speak on subjects related to their specialty.

How do you create a home that reflects your personality?

Designing a home is like the canvas on which you paint your life. It’s important to reflect who you are and the life you’ve led, especially as we get older. You might frame some artwork from your kids, or put out something you cherished from your mother, like an antique clock or a piece of jewelry.

What are some things to avoid in home design?

Don’t design your house for anyone else; design to your personality and don’t be seduced by an interior that’s not going to fit your lifestyle. You also have to think of practicality; there has to be a compromise of how you’re living if you have children. Light without a dimmer is a huge mistake—we forget there are so many moods throughout the day, and at the end, you just want to come home, dim the lights, light some candles and take a moment for yourself.

How does your Bahamian sensibility work for Naples’ style?

Magnifique!

If French antiques and fine art interest you, there's much to admire at Montmartre Gallery, Naples.

Owners Roger and Muriel Pertuisot, a husband-andwife duo from Burgundy, once owned La French Boutique on Fifth Avenue South before moving to France for their children’s studies. The couple returned with a new array of antiques, art pieces and treasures gathered during travels across the French countryside. Many are from old castles and manors while others are limited-edition stamped replicas from the Louvre Museum. The pair will share their expertise through lectures in the showroom. Topics this month focus on the Napoleonic era, famous castles and wine in Burgundy, and the historical culinary traditions in French châteaus. “We want to give people unique conversation pieces,” says Muriel, “and we want people to enjoy what they buy, not just because it’s a fashionable antique piece but because it has a story behind it.” (239-313-0333, montmartregallery.com) —A.B.

MICHAEL CARONCHI

NI: How did you develop a passion for design?

HICKS: I grew up as the daughter of David Hicks, one of the great interior decorators of the 1960s-1970s; so inevitably, design became part of my DNA.

1300 THIRD STREET SOUTH | NAPLES | 239-430-7500 WWW.GRETCHENSCOTT.COM

Insider For History Lovers Go back in time to discover the unique beauty of Southwest Florida in the early 1900s within the pages of Enchantments, Julian Dimock’s Photographs of Southwest Florida (University Press of Florida, 2013), a book coauthored by Jerald Milanich and Nina Root. Winner of the Gold Medal for Visual Arts from the Florida Book Awards, the book contains 168 pages of priceless photographs and excerpts from original magazine articles that Dimock and his father wrote at a time when Fort Myers was Southwest Florida’s last outpost of civilization and the wilderness of Marco Island was all but untouched.

“Enchantments gives us a view of how beautiful unspoiled areas were, and makes us stop and consider how we can keep what hasn’t been spoiled,” Root says.

Root, the director of the Research Library at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, found more than 4,000 of Dimock’s glass negatives of Seminole Indians that had been stored in the museum since 1926. She contacted Milanich about creating a book focusing on the Seminoles. Following its publication, the two imme-

diately began compiling Enchantments from 1,000 more negatives of Southwest Florida.

“The book is both art and history,” says Milanich. “The photographs aren’t only extraordinary because they’re pictures that show a time in Florida that’s lost forever, but also because we have the historical context for them. The photo on the cover isn’t just a beautiful picture of three girls on the beach—we know who they were and about their lives, and we can understand more about what it meant for them to be living on Marco Island in 1905.” The book is sold in local bookstores, and on amazon .com and the University Press of Florida website (upf.com). —A.B.

Feet First Who: Alexandre Birman, designer of handmade luxury women’s shoes Seen on: Demi Moore, Kate Hudson, Anne Hathaway, Jennifer Lawrence and other famous feet Top of the Class: Birman became a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2013, when his line was only five years old Genetic talent: The designer was born into a Brazilian family that has been creating footwear for three decades

“

By Katherine Lande

As long as a woman feels confident and beautiful wearing one of my designs, I am happy.

NI: You designed your first shoe at the age of 12. Do you recall what it looked like?

Birman: Of course! You never forget your first shoe. It was a pump inspired by the kind of shoes my mother always wore.

Coming from a Brazilian family with a shoe empire, was it challenging for you to find your own voice when creating your first signature collection?

My family was always so supportive of my own endeavors, so I didn’t ever feel the pressure to distinguish myself. But I do believe that my aesthetic inherently sets me apart.

Your Spring 2015 collection was inspired by a recent trip to Anguilla. What aspects of the island inspired you most?

Undoubtedly, the sea. One is surrounded by the bluest blues imaginable—it would be difficult to not be inspired by a place as beautiful as Anguilla.

&

If Birman wasn’t designing shoes, what would he be doing? Read his answer at naple​s illustrated.com/Birman

What’s the one style from the Spring 2015 collection every woman should buy to update her spring wardrobe?

I believe every woman should have the Spring 2015 interpretation of the Clarita [bottom left]. It has become somewhat of a signature for our brand—this season, we updated it with Swarovski crystals that lend a luxe yet playful feel.

What is your favorite material to work with?

Python. It’s malleable, versatile and unique.

Is there a favorite way you see or envision a woman styling your shoe designs to create her own look?

I don’t have a favorite, but I will say that as long as a woman feels confident and beautiful wearing one of my designs, I am happy.

What sets apart your distinctive shoe brand from others?

The use of exotic skins is certainly something that sets us apart.

From python to crocodile to water snake, we do it all.

Would you ever be interested in creating a men’s collection?

Maybe! The possibilities are endless. «

Making a Difference

 FOR CANCER PATIENTS IN COLLIER COUNTY  Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation & Cancer Alliance of Naples help patients pay essential non-medical bills and concentrate on recovery.

T

wo non-profit organizations are working together to ease the financial burden on cancer patients in Collier County. The Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation (FCSF) and Cancer Alliance of Naples (CAN) are both focused on supporting some of the most basic needs of cancer patients undergoing treatment.

When confronting the enormous costs of cancer treatment, low-income patients often can be forced to choose between paying for their cancer care and paying their bills; however, thanks to FCSF and CAN, patients who meet financial guidelines can receive immediate support for non-medical living expenses, such as utilities, rent or mortgage, auto payments and car insurance.

Daniel Carr, a resident of Estero, said, “CAN and the Florida Cancer Specialists Foundation have been invaluable to me. They helped financially with rent and power bills because I had very little income while I was undergoing treatment.

I was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, which is considered to be a pediatric cancer. At 72, I am one of the oldest persons alive with this cancer.

Dr. (Jay) Wang, of Florida Cancer Specialists, referred me to Sloan Kettering because they specialize in this rare disease. CAN even helped me apply for grant money to pay for my flight.”

Marcella Dove, who lives in Naples, also has used grants from the FCS Foundation. “I’ve never been in a situation in my life where I had to ask for assistance,” she said, “but this cancer diagnosis and the medications are costly.

My doctor, Dr. Andrew Lipman, told me about the FCS Foundation which has been very good about helping me. We do still struggle financially due to this diagnosis, but because of the Foundation, we aren’t under water with it anymore.”

Established in 2002, the Cancer Alliance of Naples works closely with FCSF to serve even more patients and ensure that basic necessities of life are covered. To date, CAN has helped 1,400 families with almost $3 million in non-medical financial aid and other support.

CAN also offers free group counseling, free nutrition programs and educational materials.

“As a medical oncologist, I am acutely aware of the financial burden cancer can cause,” said Dr. Joel Grossman, a member of the FCS Executive Board. “That is the main reason the physicians of FCS formed the FCS Foundation in 2010. We serve cancer patients across Florida – not just patients of FCS. We wanted to make sure that all patients in Florida who have the greatest financial need receive our help with non-medical living expenses, so they can concentrate on recovery and not have to worry so much about their bills.”

Since its inception in 2010, Florida Cancer Specialists has paid all operating costs and salaries for the FCS Foundation, which means that 100% of all donations go directly to support cancer patients in need across the state.

Apply for Help In order to be eligible to receive financial assistance from the FCS Foundation, patients must: •

Be actively undergoing cancer treatment

•

Meet certain financial income requirements (provide paycheck stubs, SSDI letter or other proof )

•

Include all who are living at your residence on household income

•

Complete application for assistance

Ways to Donate The FCS Foundation accepts financial donations of stocks, bequests, memorial gifts and honorariums. Your gift is always deeply appreciated.

Parisian Perfection

The City of Light resets the bar on global luxury with its latest newcomers and reinventions by paul rubio

and also strips the distinction from some esteemed stalwarts of the French hotel industry.

Breezing through the old and new criteria, Le Bristol Paris remains at the top of the palace scene. On the heels of a six-year, $182 million renovation, Le Bristol has unveiled a bevy of additions and enhancements: redesigned, eighteenth-century-inspired room and suite interiors; new restaurant spaces; a seven-story wing; a completely reenvisioned 13,000-square-foot courtyard garden; the Pierre-Yves Rochon-designed Le Bar du Bristol; reimagined signature suites; and the introduction of a more than 2,500-square-foot honeymoon suite facing the Eiffel Tower.

While completely refreshed, Le Bristol Paris 2.0 still oozes the classic opulence that made it famous when it opened in 1925. Nips and tucks have only enhanced the distinctly traditional glamour that today converges as the living reality of a “Once Upon a Time in Paris” storybook fantasy. (lebristolparis.com)

2 Thanks to the vision of Georges-Eugène Haussmann and the legacies of rulers like Louis XIV, Louis XV and Napoleon Bonaparte, an unparalleled grandeur is immortalized within the City of Light. But while embracing this historical splendor, Paris has also been swept away by a growing love affair with modernity, fostering a unique phenomenon of looking to the past, present and future to define today’s trends in architecture, design, culture and gastronomy.

From history-steeped hotel reinventions to the latest offerings in haute cuisine, what follows is our curated list of the top reasons to revisit Paris now.

1

L’Oiseau Blanc and LiLi at the Peninsula Paris

Following a meticulous reinvention of its nineteenth-century Haussmanian building, the Peninsula Paris opened in August to rave reviews. And its sixth-floor rooftop L’Oiseau Blanc restaurant and design-savvy LiLi Cantonese restaurant quickly garnered “It” status on the Paris social scene.

Le Bristol Paris

Paris’ hotel scene was rocked in 2011 when revamped criteria emerged for designation as an official Parisian “palace” hotel. To prove a hotel excels beyond typical five-star status, it must now meet 38 rigorous standards for excellence. This paves the way for several newcomers to enter the ranks

The 40-seat L’Oiseau Blanc is all about the views, which are eye-level with the rooftops of Paris, in clear view of the Eiffel Tower, immersed in aviation-themed interiors that pay homage to French pilots Charles Nungesser and François Coli, who attempted the first transatlantic flight between Paris and New York (on the plane L’Oiseau Blanc).

Downstairs at lobby level, LiLi impresses with bold and seductive interiors that channel the theatrical elegance of the Chinese opera. Helmed by Chef Tang Chi Keung, of Michelin-starred Hei Fung Terrace fame, the restaurant presents the best in authentic Cantonese cuisine, including 15 varieties of dim sum, perfectly executed classics like Sichuan-style braised prawns and numerous Hong Kong favorites with a French twist— think wok-fried blue lobster with ginger and spring onions.

Courses are served as “Acts,” and the “Conclusion” is comprised of decadent desserts such as the Doyenné du Comice Pear, a candied pear over a buttery soft biscuit topped with homemade sorbet.

Adjacent to La Scène, the Bar Les Heures boasts an equally dramatic presentation.

French Celebrity Chef Éric Fréchon has yet another accolade under his belt, as his triple Michelin-starred restaurant, Épicure, housed at Le Bristol Paris, was deemed the “Best Hotel Restaurant of the World” 2015 by Saveur magazine.

itself uniting as a single, sweet masterpiece. (le bristolparis.com)

5 Fréchon, a name synonymous with Parisian haute cuisine, continues to transform personal gastronomic prowess into a gourmand’s paradise. Épicure’s latest menu delivers on its recent designation with experiential delights such as a dish called Leeks from Ile de France, a perfectly caramelized leek in seaweed butter, partitioned by a tartare of petite White Pearl oysters; the simply titled Scallops, pillows of the sweet mollusks simmered in watercress juice with brown butter, topped with slices— not shavings—of white truffle from Alba and served over ratte potato gnocchi; and the Thyme-Lemon Honey, a celebration of honey in all forms, from fresh honeycomb to frozen honey to honey ice cream and the liquid gold

Picasso Museum

Five years and about $63 million later, Musée Picasso Paris has reopened in the city’s Marais district. This artistic haven is now triple in size and houses some 5,000 works by the Spanish artist and 200,000 pieces from his personal archives (though a manageable 437 are on display).

The museum’s home, the seventeenthcentury Hôtel Salé, has been completely restored and rearranged to parade highlights of the world’s largest Picasso collection, representing the many stages of the artist’s career including his blue, cubist and pop-art periods. The museum also exhibits the apex of Picasso’s personal collection of work by other artists, including paintings by Cézanne, Rousseau, Renoir and Gauguin. In a city where museums err on the side of enormous, the rich but approachable Picasso Museum is a breath of fresh air. (museepicassoparis.fr/en) «

Forgotten Florida

A new resort brings modern amenities, luxury comforts and a dose of chic to Old Florida by paul Rubio

Counterclockwise from top right: the rooftop Fragmentary Blue restaurant; guest rooms highlight nature views; the property exterior; Streamsong’s Leaf Lounge.

It’s as intriguing as it is unexpected. A highdesign resort has quietly debuted in rural Central Florida, functioning as a self-contained destination for outdoor enthusiasm but boasting the excess one would covet in an ultra-luxury vacation experience.

Welcome to Streamsong Resort, a 216-suite offspring of the renowned Bill Coore- and Ben Crenshaw-designed Streamsong Red golf course and the Tom Doak-designed Streamsong Blue golf course, and the anchor of a new resort experience that spans beyond the land’s awardwinning putting greens.

The former site of a phosphate-mining project tucked between citrus groves and farms, the land’s history and recent reclamation has spawned a unique topography of rolling hills, sand dunes and emerald lakes. Inspired by this colorful tract, architect Albert Alfonso took a minimalist approach to the hotel’s aesthetic, using

glass, recycled woods and neutral tones to enhance the immersion in forgotten Florida. Catering to the modern luxury traveler and an artistic vision within, he also crafted singular recreational spaces like the AcquaPietra Spa, distinguished by a seven-pool hydrotherapy circuit; an infinityedged pool overlooking a wildlife-rich lake; and an expansive sky roof, ideal for star-gazing in this region devoid of light pollution and equipped with the rooftop Fragmentary Blue bar, one of five on-site food and beverage offerings.

Streamsong’s world of outdoor pursuits envelops the hotel—across a whopping 16,000 acres in little-known Bowling Green. The surrounding waters reveal some of Florida’s superlative bass fishing, while land-based activities focus on sporting clays, nature hikes and golfing. The 18-hole Streamsong Red course, the first completed element of the greater Streamsong project, opened in 2012 and was named the best new course by Golfweek magazine that year.

Since then, both Red and Blue continue to grace official lists as some of the world’s top public courses.

Streamsong impresses as more than a golfer’s delight.

It’s a surprisingly stylish retreat and a nearby serene escape for those wanting to shed all attachments to city life, branding a former middle-of-nowhere destination as somewhere very special. (863-428-1000, Streamsong’s infinity pool streamsongresort.com) «

Made for

Bond

Aston Martin has created a brand new car—the DB10—for James Bond’s next high-action romp, Spectre

By Howard Walker

74

Ejector seat readied: check. On-board machine guns at aim: check. Levitating rear bullet shield raised: check. Driver shaken and stirred? Definitely.

It was April 1997 in an auto museum parking lot in Danville, California. I was behind the thin-rimmed wooden wheel of the actual Aston Martin DB5 that James “007” Bond drove in the 1964 film Goldfinger.

Talk about one of life’s seminal moments. Here was the car labeled “The Most Famous in the World” with, at the time, an estimated value somewhere north of $4 million. And I was driving it.

It didn’t matter all the gadgets were make-believe. For a photo shoot, we had to bolt the rear-wheel tire shredders that cinematically extended at the touch of a button. Here was an icon, a rolling piece of movie magic. And while Aston Martin built four identical Silver Birch DB5s for EON Productions, this was the so-called “Star Car,” the one fitted with all the gizmos that starred in Goldfinger and Thunderball, with the inimitable Sean Connery behind the wheel.

Three months later, it was gone. After my drive, the car was shipped back to Florida where the owner was storing it in a hangar at Boca Raton airport. According to local police, thieves ripped off the hangar doors, dragged the car out using a chain wrapped around its rear axle and spirited it away. It has never been seen or heard of since. It just vanished.

Since then, pretty much every Bond flick has been immortalized by its cars. My favorites are the submarining Lotus Esprit in the 1977 Roger Moore caper The Spy Who Loved Me. I still chuckle every time I see Bond drive out of the water, lower the side window and eject that rubber fish. Then there was the fabulous Aston Martin DBS V12 driven by Daniel Craig in his debut Bond flick, Casino Royale. It lists in the Guinness World Records as the car that

completed the most cannon rolls—seven—as Bond swerves to avoid the helpless Vesper Lynd.

So what’s going to be the next “most famous” Bond car? I’m betting it’ll be the recently unveiled Aston Martin DB10 specially designed and built for the upcoming Bond romp, Spectre, due for release November 6. Never before has a car been designed solely for a Bond film. Yes, the gorgeous Toyota 2000 GT coupe was transformed into a convertible for You Only Live Twice. But the story goes a drop-top was needed because Sean Connery was just too tall to fit into the slender Japanese coupe.

Aston Martin’s chief creative officer, Marek Reichman, designed the muscular DB10 with input from the film’s director, Sam Mendes. Ten

cars will be built for the film at Aston’s in-house special projects group, amusingly named Q division after 007’s legendary technical wizard Q. Before you ask, no, none of the 10 will be sold to the public. But wait 10 years and you can bet one or two will find their way on to eBay or go across the block at a Pebble Beach collector car auction.

Word has it, however, the dramatic look of the DB10 with its bold front grille design will likely feature on future Aston models. Sadly, details are scarce as to any special features that may come with the model. Just know Mendes isn’t the kind of director to want ejector seats, tire-shredders and certainly the cheesy invisible cloaks and grillemounted rocket launchers featured in the Pierce Brosnan Bond years.

THE

PERFECT

In sports, as in any undertaking, we are looking for the right fit. Rather than opting for the most readily available option, our best bet is to find “the one” meant for us—and that often means a little matchmaking (or customization) on the front end. Of course, when anything is tweaked to specifically fit our preferences and needs, we tend to experience a rush of excitement. This leads us to elaborately customize everything from cars to coffee, so when it comes to sports equipment, why buy off the rack?

Whether you are looking to improve performance or simply be as comfortable and stylish as possible when playing your sport of choice, equipment customization is your best shot. We turned to four local experts in golf, fishing, cycling and tennis to explain why.

FIT

Switching Gears

When many of us first learned to ride a bicycle, fittings were simple. If your feet reached the pedals and your hands could grip the handlebars, off you went. For weekend warriors and avid cyclists looking to improve their ride time or just feel the most comfortable during their excursions, the process is quite different. Since cycling involves your entire body, the number of variables to take into consideration when selecting a bike is significant. Josh Eaton, lead body geometry fitter at Naples Cyclery (239-566-0600, naplescyclery.com), does much of his assessment before his clients ever get on a bike. Using the Body Geometry FIT system, a comprehensive system developed through years of cooperation with Dr. Andy Pruitt, Ed.D., PA of the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine, Eaton performs a strength analysis and flexibility assessment. Body Geometry FIT was designed specifically to help cyclists ride faster, longer, in greater comfort, and with less chance of injury.

“One thing with the Body Geometry Fitter, and fitting in general, is we don’t want to push the body into a position that it’s not willing to go because it results in pain and potentially injury,” says Eaton.

Using the findings, along with information from a preliminary interview, Eaton then adjusts the bike to suit the rider’s body, such as finding the right handlebar to adjusting the crank arm based on the length of a client’s leg, as well as knee extension and hip and ankle angles.

After a fitting is complete, clients have one year to return at any time for complimentary adjustments, whether it’s based on increased flexibility thanks to more riding or other factors. Detailed information on the bike and any adjustments are stored on the shop’s computer and emailed to the client on an ongoing basis. The costs of a Body Geometry fitting for a road bike is $300, and includes a $100 credit toward the purchase of a new bicycle from Naples Cyclery.

For those looking for more luxury in their ride, consider designer offerings such as the Porsche RS Bike (866-603-6004, naples.porschedealer.com), which offers cyclists a very quiet ride and superior acceleration thanks to Crankbrothers Cobalt 3 wheels

and smooth rolling tires. The high-end carbon frame and 20-speed gear system makes for a lightweight bike that remains heavy in drive performance. An ergonomic seat adds to the pampering—all for just under $8,300. Another elegant option for posh pedalers is the Bianchi by Gucci bicycles (gucci.com), designed by Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini, which represents the blending of two Italian traditions of design and craftsmanship. The signature color stripes and detailing make the Gucci birthright unmistakable, while the design and development by one of the world’s most reputable bicycle manufacturing companies proves the $16,200 price tag delivers more than just a pretty face. With seamless adaptability to both city and countryside riding, the matte black carbon fiber monocoque model, and its hollow frame, is perfect for weekend jaunts.

With only a handful of local courses—Foxfire Golf & Country Club and Quail Creek Country Club among them—allowing personal golf carts, much of Electric Motion’s offerings are customized street-legal carts. Owners can drive along any street with speed limits of 35 mph or less in an open-air vehicle perfect for Naples’ mild and sunny climate.

GOLF Swing King

Historically, off-course carts have essentially been on-course models in a splashier color with a few decals. This new generation of customized carts takes golfing to a new level of opulence. While constructed on a golf-cart frame, many of Electric Motion’s carts are customized to resemble luxury vehicles, such as the Cadillac Escalade and Hummer. Clients can personalize all aspects including wheels, detailing, and seating to accommodate up to 10 passengers.

The all-electric, eco-friendly carts start at $12,000 for the luxury four-seater models and can reach $17,000 with customization and freight. –L.S.

078-feat customization-0215.indd 81

T.J. Shelton refutes the idea that golf club customization should be reserved for professional players. As a master fitter and the manager of Tiburón Golf Club’s TaylorMade Performance Lab at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Resort, Naples, Shelton says custom-fitted equipment can actually help the average amateur more than the tour professional, because weekend golfers have more inconsistencies in their swing and equipment.

“Buying off the shelf is the biggest mistake that amateurs make,” Shelton says. “If you had a board with nails and a screwdriver and a hammer sitting there, which one would you pick? Obviously, you would pick the hammer, because it’s more efficient and you would get done faster. A lot of amateur golfers are playing with screwdrivers in their bag instead of hammers.”

The TaylorMade Performance Lab at Tiburón (239-593-2200; tiburon​ gcnaples.com), one of only 19 in the country and the only Lab on Florida’s west coast, is designed to help golfers determine the best club for the job.

Clients don an avatar suit with 27 sensors that are strategically placed on the body. Then, they take practice swings with a fitted golf club (also equipped with sensors) to provide instant high-tech feedback that is displayed using 3D imaging. Shelton analyzes the data and images to measure every aspect of a client’s golf swing, from wrist angle to club-head path.

Shelton validates the fitting by having clients stand on a launch monitor to achieve a baseline reading using their current equipment. Once complete, he begins customizing clubs with varying heads, shafts, angles and flex that match the lab-recommended results. Along with feedback from the client, Shelton goes through a process of elimination, altering the components until there’s a perfect fit. The full fitting process typically takes around two hours and costs an average of $400.

“Our goal,” Shelton says, “is to give you the best possible chance of making the most consistent golf swing every time you pick up a golf club.”

Striking Match

TENNIS

82

NAPLES ILLUSTRATED

078-feat customization-0215.indd 82

The perils of tennis lie in the common thinking that any racket will do when it comes to equipment. “People will say ‘just give me a racket and I will learn to play with it,’” says Roddy Cantey, owner of ProAm Tennis (239597-1222, proamtennis.com) in Naples. “[But] you don’t want to work for the racket. You want the racket to work for you.”

As a master racket technician, certified by the United States Racquet Stringers Association, Cantey works with clients to perform a thorough evaluation of their tennis game, from understanding their style and habits to adjusting for any physical limitations. Some sport-related ailments, such as tennis elbow, may actually be linked to a poor-quality racket and its effect on a player’s stroke, according to Cantey. Making changes, such as dropping the string tension and using multifilament string that pockets the ball better, can help players minimize some of the pain, he says.

After evaluating clients, Cantey offers any of the rackets that ProAm Tennis carries for complimentary demos. Clients are encouraged to select several rackets at a time to practice with and then return to share their likes and dislikes with Cantey, who is also a teaching professional certified by the United States Professional Tennis Association. This feedback, along with that of their local pro, leads to the selection of the racket frame and grip, followed by the strings.

“The racket is only half about the frame,” Cantey says. “The strings are the second half because they are, hopefully, what is going to touch the ball every single time.”

With 150 types of strings and varying tension designed to cater to a player’s specific needs, Cantey strives to deliver the perfect individualized product. “The fun thing about this is no one person is going to have the same racket as the next,” he says.

Dropping string tension and using multifilament string are customized racket changes that can reduce pain from ailments like tennis elbow

FISHING

Talented Cast

A customized fishing rod offers the dual advantages of better performance and the coolness factor. Henley Shotwell, co-owner of Surf and Turf Custom, is happy to help with both. Shotwell, along with partner and master rod builder Robbie Turner, manufacture Outlaw Custom Rods—a line of fishing rods known for specialized construction and aesthetics.

“When we build our rods, we make sure the spine is dead-on perfect in relation to how the rod will load when you’re fighting a fish,” says Shotwell.

While it is common for rod manufacturers to use cardboard to make up the difference between the inside diameter of the reel seat (what holds the reel on the rod) and the outside diameter of the rod blank (the main part of the fishing rod), this can lead to problems if water seeps in and the cardboard gets wet. To eliminate this potential, Outlaw Rods opts for fiberglass epoxy. It is one of many detail differences, along with a choice of handle material, which appeal to avid fishermen. Outlaw’s customized thread patterns and designs are wrapped on the rod bank, added purely for individual expression.

“The thread patterns, designs and all the things you can add to the rod make it personal, make it pop and make it stand out in the crowd,” says Shotwell.

Clients choose from a seemingly limitless choice of color combinations and patterns, as well as other unique touches, whether they add their initials, their boat’s name, or their favorite sporting team logo.

Depending on the level and type of customization, base rods start around $200 and can go as high as $1,500. The intricate process of using extensive patterns, which when finished, are only 8to 16-inches long, can take upward of nine hours to create. And be prepared to wait much longer for one of Shotwell’s unique works of art; lead-time on a customized rod is typically two months. Just keep reminding yourself: good things come to those who wait.

Riding

High

The Naples area has its share of equestrian enthusiasts, which may surprise some. It’s not the first sport that comes to mind for Southwest Florida, after all. But given the heritage of cowboys and cattle ranchers, the state’s inhabitants have a long history of riding on horseback. And competitive riding is a sport that appeals as much to women as men. Meet four local women equestrians who not only love their horses—describing them in glowing, affectionate terms—but also love engaging them in equestrian competitions. We asked these ladies about their equine fascination and what it takes to ride, show, jump and train with a four-legged partner.

Tori Polonitza trains horses and horse riders for a living in Bonita Springs. She grew up riding horses with her six siblings in La Jolla, California, and she knew early on the intuitive creatures would play a major role in her life. At age 14, she informed her father that she wanted to move to England once she turned 18, so she could study and work toward earning the British Horse Society Instructor Certificate. When she moved back to the States five years later with her coveted certificate, she worked at a horse farm in San Diego owned by the parents of her future husband, Barry. In 1995 they moved to Florida with their two young kids, now 25 and 26, to run a boarding and training facility. Jasmine Springs Farm specializes in dressage—Polonitza’s preferred discipline after an earlier interest in show jumping.

The family worked together to develop themselves and the horses for maximum athletic performance. In 2014, Polonitza and her Americanbred Hanoverian mare Seraphina ranked third in the nation with third-level freestyle dressage at the U.S. Equestrian Federation Dressage Championships—an invitational in Lexington, Kentucky. They will continue in coming years to compete their way up the scale to the highest (ninth) level—the prestigious Grand Prix, an annual event held in different cities all over the world.

Dressage

Women equestrians tend to have strong personalities, be bold, adventurous types and get-the-job-done kind of gals.

Why dressage? Dressage is all about the harmonious development of the horse as a gymnastic athlete. The feeling of the horse as it becomes more balanced, powerful and supple is amazing.

Challenges and rewards: Each horse is a puzzle.

It’s such a joy to start each day trying to figure out what’s the most effective way to interact with each horse to produce the best result.

Horse-rider bonding: We are constantly having a conversation. It’s like spending time with a good friend. I had two kids and she [Jasmine, a horse in San Diego] had five foals. When I got pregnant, she got pregnant! We had a good system together.

Advice for aspiring equestrians: The best horse for an amateur is the horse that knows more than the rider. Never pair a green horse with a green rider; it’s not good for either of them.

Kim Minarich Endurance and Competitive Trail Riding Owning a horse was a lifelong dream for Kim Minarich, who joined her high school equestrian club to be able to take English riding lessons and participate in entry-level equitation show competition. In 1988, once her two children were away at college, she says she filled her empty nest with horses. First came Maggie Mae, a mixed breed mare whom Minarich rescued 19 years ago from an Immokalee farmer’s paddock—emaciated, starved, covered with ulcerated sores from fly bites and frightened of people. Minarich trained her as a competitive trail riding (CTR) and endurance competitor and later acquired Zahra (“white blossom, graceful mover” in Arabic, for the white “blossom” on her forehead), a registered black bay Anglo-Arab bred for endurance. Although she has been trail riding for nearly 15 years, Minarich began competing in CTR (typically 25 to 30 miles in length) and endurance races (50, 75 and 100 miles) only four years ago. She competes on average twice monthly in endurance races and CTR throughout Florida’s October through April season. She has also competed in North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Minarich’s love for all things equine led to her appointment as executive director of Naples Equestrian Challenge, a nonprofit that provides equine-assisted activities and therapies to children and adults with special needs.

Why CRT and endurance? I’ve never liked arena work. I’d much rather be out on a trail in the woods.

Biggest misconception about competitive riding is … that it’s not athletic and the rider just sits on the horse. Competitive riding—whether it’s dressage, jumping, barrel racing or endurance—demands good core muscles, balance, coordination and cardio fitness, all with finesse and subtlety.

Memorable moment: Maggie and I were galloping along a trail through the grasses [in Central Florida] when a buck joined us. He ran alongside us for about two miles or so, just running and leaping, having a wonderful time, and Maggie enjoyed the race.

Favorite part of competing: The partnership with my horse and camaraderie with the other competitors. I have never been involved in a sport where the competitors help each other.

I love this sport because it is all about the horse. And I don’t have to be pretty! In fact, the dirtier, sweatier and muddier you are, chances are you had a fabulous ride.

Kathryn Tout Dressage

When Kathryn Tout was just three years old and growing up in Wales in a horse-loving family, she would beg her brother to put her on her pony so she could ride around the village on her own. Her mother grew accustomed to villagers calling to let her know that her wee daughter was out riding alone. She later competed as a teenager in “eventing” in the disciplines of dressage, cross country and show jumping throughout England and Wales before moving to Naples in 1990. Over the past 15 years, though, Tout has concentrated squarely on dressage, defined by the International Equestrian Federation as “the highest expression of horse training,” and also often referred to as “horse ballet.” The Naples real estate saleswoman and Naples Equestrian Challenge Community Council member averages six competitions each year with her 16-year-old Hanoverian grey gelding Da Capo, which she imported from Germany. Her four-yearold black Oldenburg mare, Lara Croft, was also bred in Germany.

94

Tout looks forward to competing with her this winter for Lara’s first time in Wellington, Florida. She has also set a goal to compete with the award-winning Da Capo at the highest equestrian competitive level—Grand Prix—in Kentucky in 2015.

Why dressage? I really enjoy the harmony created between horse and rider.

Favorite place to ride: The mountains in Wales.

Horse sense: Horses have a way of keeping most of us humble. It is a never-ending learning curve. Especially in dressage, we are constantly seeking perfection.

Equal-opportunity sport: Equestrian competition is one of the few competitions where men and women compete against each other.

Advice for aspiring equestrians: Set your goals and appreciate the small strides of improvement. Enjoy the journey and always put the horse’s well-being first.

1/5/15 2:45 PM

Tania Di Carlo got to know her future husband, Steve, a fellow competitor, at horse shows. She began riding as a child in Orange County, California, and later competing in the top-level hunter/jumper circuit. Di Carlo moved to Naples and started her own riding program in 2004. When they married in 2011, the couple joined forces under the name Benchmark Equestrian. They both competed as jumpers and hunters; the latter is less about speed and more about pace and grace. Tania now concentrates on jumping with her seven-year-old Westphalian mare, Cristella, whom she hopes will jump all the way to her first Grand Prix. A saleswoman of horse-riding equipment and apparel for four years, Di Carlo quit her travel-intensive job following the birth of her first child, son Alex, last year. She now expects to be able to show on a monthly basis, rather than every six weeks as she was doing previously. Steve typically competes a couple of times each month while also training hunting and jumping horses at Benchmark.

Favorite place to ride: Wellington, Florida. There are so many high-end horses and professional riders, you can’t help but rise to the occasion and ride your best. Plus, the footing is so great there for the horses; my horse ends up jumping fantastic in her rounds.

Women equestrians: Some women riders may have to perfect their craft even more to get along with the same horse that a man may be more apt to physically handle. A woman in this case must get the horse to be more sensitive to her [cues,] for the pure fact that there is no way she can get it done with sheer strength alone.

Advice for aspiring jumpers: Know your horse and spend the time on the flatwork. It will make your job in the show ring 10 times better.

Biggest challenge: Keeping mentally strong. Good riding comes from how well you react to what you and your horse encounter on a course; you have to consider not only the physical act of riding and timing and balance, but also the horse’s mental state and concentration. 

LUXURY IN

2016 Maserati Levante Go-anywhere Italian Stallion In 2012, Maserati execs raised plenty of eyebrows when they announced the upcoming Maserati sport-utility would be based on—wait for it—a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Thankfully, they came to their senses, and now the ready-for-production Maserati Levante SUV will ride on a modified version of the automaker’s lovely Ghibli sedan platform.

Another bit of good news: Instead of a rude-and-crude Jeep V-8 doing the powering, there’ll be a choice of turbocharged 350- or 425-horse turbo V-6s from the Ghibli and Quattroporte sedans.

What’s unlikely to change too much, however, are the lovely, flowing lines of Maserati’s original Kubang concept from 2012. This design was the first inkling the Italian automaker and FiatChrysler group member would build an SUV. The plan, if you can ever nail down Maserati to a firm timeline, is the all-wheel drive Levante will go into production sometime this year and go on sale in the United States in late 2015 or early 2016.

Size-wise, it’s up there with BMW’s X5 and the Mercedes ML and will likely sticker in the $70,000 to $80,000 range. Right now, an all-wheel drive Ghibli sells for around $77,000.

And if the latest Ghibli is anything to go by, expect an interior slathered in handcrafted leather and fine woods and an engine soundtrack that will make grown men weep.

NI Verdict Una bella machina sportivo utilità indeed.

Mercedes-Benz 6x6 G63 AMG The Colossus of Roads When four-wheel drive just isn’t enough to extract you from that muddy polo field parking lot, behold the mighty Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6. That’s right, six-wheel drive.

To create this $600,000 goliath, Mercedes’ AMG division stretched the regular G-Class by a whopping 43 inches, providing enough space to add another axle and turn it into a six-wheel drive.

As expected, its off-road ability—whether sploshing through mud or punching across sand dunes— is otherworldy. Rolling on 37-inch wheels shod with tires the size of blimps, the Merc has 18 inches of ground clearance and can wade through water 39 inches deep.

Power comes from a 5.5-liter, 536-hp, AMG-built V-8 delivering 560 pound-feet of torque. Despite weighing four and a half tons, it can sprint from standstill to 60 in 7.8 seconds.

Inside, it’s all quilted diamond-stitched leather and AMG hip-hugging sports seats front and rear. Even the pick-up bed is lined with handcrafted bamboo.

Mercedes plans to build just 30 G63 6x6s a year, each costing 456,000 Euros, which converts to around $590,000. While the 6x6 isn’t sold in the United States yet, word is it could be available by 2016.

NI verdict No other luxury SUV has this much six appeal.

Range Rover Autobiography Black LWB The $200,000 Range Rover Luxuriating in the back of Range Rover’s Autobiography Black edition feels like you’re stretching out in a Gulfstream G450. Caviar and Cristal, anyone?

Over the years, Land Rover has been inching the Range Rover lineup further upmarket, pitching it as an alternative to a Bentley Flying Spur or top-end Mercedes-Benz S-Class. This long-wheelbase Autobiography Black edition—at $186,000 base or $199,500 for one of the first 25 editions to come to America—is designed to see how far that upward movement can go.

In keeping with the elevated sticker, the craftsmanship and quality is simply remarkable. Rear passengers kick back in individual Barcalounger-style leather armchairs that can recline, massage, cool and calm their occupants.

The right-rear passenger seat—the place where the owner will chill while being chauffeured—also has a levitating footrest. Need to work? Each rear-seat rider gets an iPad-sized leather and polished aluminum table.

To distinguish this Autobiography Black, there’s a unique front grille and 21-inch wheels. Like all Autobiography models, the Black features a potent 510-horsepower supercharged 5-liter V-8 coupled to NI verdict an 8-speed automatic. Performance is nothing short of breathtaking.

Savile Row on wheels.

NI verdict Think of it as the Jay-Z of luxury SUVs.

2015 Cadillac Escalade ESV Platinum The new King of Bling Rappers and rock stars, rejoice: Cadillac has refreshed the mighty Escalade for 2015, and it’s as big, bad and blingy as ever.

The new range includes a super-luxury line, called the Platinum Collection, sporting more black leather than the crowd at a Guns N’ Roses concert.

If anything, the design is even squarer and boxier than before; the edges are so sharp you’ll risk flesh wounds every time you give it a wash.

Powering this 2015 ’Slade is GM’s stump-pulling 6.2-liter V-8, cranking out 420 horses and 460 pound-feet of torque. That’s enough power to haul 8,200 pounds. If you could get the QE2 on a trailer, this puppy would pull it.

The real advancements, however, are heightened luxury details. The interior, for example, features cut-and-sewn trim like those on Bentleys and Rolls-Royces.

This Escalade also offers cool features like Bose Active Noise Cancellation technology and Magnetic Ride Control suspension that smooths out lumps and bumps and tames body roll. In-car Wi-Fi is available, too.

While prices start at around $73,000 for the standard wheelbase model, a stretched wheelbase, all-wheel-drive ESV Platinum will set you back more than $90,000.

NI verdict Call it The Incredible Bulk.

2015 Infiniti QX80 Limited When XL feels like XXXL You’ve got to love a vehicle that offers a Plasmacluster air purifier.

It’s just one of the seemingly never-ending features shoehorned into the significant bulk of the 2015 Infiniti QX80.

What the Infiniti lacks in technical sophistication—its chassis sticks with a crude, body-on-frame layout—it makes up for in sheer, hedonistic luxury. Just about the entire interior is lined with glove-soft leather. If you want to see leather-wrapped speaker grilles, look no further.

But perhaps the biggest feature of the latest QX80, which boasts a price tag starting at $62,000, is literally its size. This truck is huge, in not only its dimensions but its physical presence as well. Its front end is so vast you could park a Smart car underneath its hood.

Inside, there’s stretch-out comfort for eight over three rows and, with the back two rows folded flat, there’s a staggering 95 cubic feet of space. There are New York City apartments that measure less.

Powering this brute is Infiniti’s silky-smooth, 400-horse, 5.6-liter V-8 capable of towing an impressive 8,500 pounds without breaking a sweat.

And if you do happen to sweat, that Plasmacluster purifier will be there to make everything smell sweeter.

Range Rover Sport SVR

One very wild Rover.

As in Supremely Versatile Rocketship Zero to 60 in 4.5 seconds. A top speed of 162 mph. Max power: an impressive 550 hp. Base Camp to the top of Everest? Probably in less than a couple of minutes.

You’re looking at Land Rover’s insanely rapid 2015 Range Rover Sport SVR. For a while now, the folks at Land Rover have been salivating at the huge profits Porsche and Mercedes have made with their high-performance SUVs. So Land Rover’s parent, Jaguar Land Rover in England, has just created its own high-performance division called SVO—short for Special Vehicle Operations. Think of it as a mini AMG. Its first serious production model is this Range Rover Sport SVR, which lands in showrooms this year with prices starting at $110,475.

Powering comes from the same 5-liter supercharged V-8 that motivates Jaguar’s latest F-Type R Coupe. All that power is channeled to the four wheels through a ZF eight-speed automatic with shift times reduced by 50 percent.

Design-wise, it looks like a track star. There are gorgeous 21-inch alloys at each corner, an aggressive-looking front-end treatment, a high-mounted rear spoiler and a rear bumper with diffuser.

And even though it can wade through water 33 inches deep, don’t even think of getting something this cool splattered with mud.

NI verdict One hot, peppery Cayenne.

2015 Porsche Cayenne Turbo The Speeding Bullet of SUVs In 1986, Porsche’s mighty 911 Turbo coupe was one of the ultimate supercars of its time. It could explode from standstill to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. Kids pinned posters of it on their bedroom walls.

Fast-forward to the present, and Porsche’s latest off-roading, mud-plugging Cayenne Turbo sport-ute can reach 60 in 4.2 seconds. Talk about progress.

Until the souped-up Cayenne Turbo S lands, this resculpted 2015 Turbo is one of the world’s fastest SUVs, with a top speed of 173 mph.

That power comes from Porsche’s 4.8-liter twin-turbo V-8, which delivers a potent 520 hp and 553 pound-feet of torque. Mack trucks make less.

There is something otherworldly in the way this 4,800-pound leviathan launches itself toward the horizon. An F-16 on takeoff isn’t as exhilarating.

For 2015, the designers have been tinkering with the lines to convince current owners they need to upgrade. There’s a reshaped hood and front fenders, plus front intakes with new air blades to guide air more efficiently to the intercoolers.

The Cayenne Turbo stickers for $113,600 but by the time you’ve added the must-have Chrono Package and simple things like floor mats, you’ll be closer to $130,000.

2016 Bentley SUV The 200-mph off-roader SUV makers talk about injecting luxury into their sportutes. A little diamond-quilted leather here, a few trims of glossy walnut there. But if you’re on the hunt for the ultimate in 4x4 luxury, hang on—there’s a Bentley off-roader coming.

Thankfully, we’re told it will look considerably different from the garish, chrome-laden EXP 9 F concept model Bentley unveiled to universal smirks back in 2012. The thinly disguised development cars clocking up miles around Bentley’s Crewe, England, headquarters are akin to a raised-up fivedoor wagon version of a Continental GT coupe.

Word is it will ride on the same advanced all-wheel drive chassis that will underpin the next-generation Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne and upcoming Lamborghini Urus SUV. With Bentley execs openly talking about a 200-mph top speed for the yet-unnamed Bentley 4x4, it’s going to require quite a powertrain—most likely the current 6-liter twin-turbo W-2 or maybe a plug-in hybrid version with electric assist.

What’s certain is this new sport-ute is set to become Bentley’s best-selling model ever. As for the price, with a top Range Rover now costing $200,000, don’t be surprised if this new Bentley SUV starts at $240,000-plus.

2015 Lincoln Navigator Throwing a six Contrary to popular opinion, Lincoln has not abandoned its flagship Navigator.

Its updated 2015 Navigator has just gone on sale. And while it doesn’t look too different from the outgoing version, it comes with one fairly major surprise: The wheezy, gas-guzzling V-8 is history. The only motor on offer is Ford’s twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 EcoBoost packing 380hp. That’s a bold move by Lincoln.

This refresh to the Navigator is more an interim face-lift than a fullblown new model—that’s due in 2016. This latest ’Gator is still very much a gussied-up Ford Expedition.

Yet there are plenty of changes, the most visual of which is the redesigned front featuring Lincoln’s new signature split-wing grille.

Open the doors and discover a major step up in the quality of materials as well as fit and finish. The hand-wrapped leather instrument panel with contrast stitching is just gorgeous.

While this latest Navigator is no Caddy Escalade, it’s a great value at $62,475. Even the high-zoot Reserve package model will only set you back less than $73,000.

2016 Volvo XC90 How Swede it is

NI verdict The world’s safest people-carrier gets a stylish new look.

114-feat SUV ni-0215.indd 119

The good news is there’s a terrific new Volvo XC90 sport-ute landing at U.S. dealerships this spring. The bad news is the 1,927 fully loaded first-edition models, priced at $65,900, were all sold.

Within 47 hours. And only online.

Why 1,927? That’s the year the trusty Volvo Car Corp. was founded.

This new XC90 is a huge deal for Volvo’s new parent company, China’s Zhejiang Geely Holding Group. It’s actually the first product totally developed by Volvo since Ford sold the automaker in 2010.

Design-wise, it’s not a radical departure from the previous and much-loved three-row, seven-passenger XC90. But the front grille—the new “face” of Volvo—is more upright and dramatic, the lines softer and curvier.

Inside is where the real innovation takes place. The most headturning feature is the 12-inch vertical touchscreen display, the industry’s second largest, just behind the 17-inch whopper in the Tesla.

Under the hood, driving all four wheels, is a supercharged and turbocharged four-cylinder-packing 316 hp. Down the road, there’ll be a plug-in hybrid version with an 80-horse electric motor taking the tally up to around 400 hp.

Being a Volvo, it’s expected to be supersafe. Innovations include two firsts: a system to keep you safe if you run off the road and autobrake-at-intersection capability. «

SPICE IT UP Chinese New Year, which falls on February 19, will welcome the Year of the Sheep, a sign associated with loyalty, good nature and kindness. Charlie Chiang’s, Naples, will celebrate with a menu of traditional dishes. Something nontraditional, like the restaurant’s lemongrass jumbo shrimp—crispy crustaceans with a spicy kick from chilies—can also be a delicious way to celebrate. The Chinese zodiac is based on a 12-year cycle, with each year related to an animal sign, and is calculated according to a lunar calendar. It is traditional to celebrate for weeks leading up to the New Year with special decorations, family visits, lion and dragon dances and fireworks. (charliechiangs.com) —Kat Smith

Chef Keith Casey

Keith Casey, proprietor of KC American Bistro, never intended to be a chef. “Believe it or not,” he laughs, “in 1990 I was studying to be a veterinarian at the University of Georgia, and working at the Buckhead Diner at night. Along the way, I decided that I liked restaurant work much better.”

After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America in 1998, he became a believer in American regional cuisine. His definition is simple: “It’s the indigenous food products of a certain area, the ethnicities and cultures of that area, and how they developed into a distinctive cooking style.”

Originally from Boston, he moved to Naples in 2006; after stints at Chops City Grill, Yabba Island Grill and Blue Water Bistro, he opened his doors in June 2009. “We opened at the official bottom of the recession, when home values had been cut in half—but rents were cut in half as well, so I was able to break in when startup costs were much lower.”

Honeycrisp Apple and Arugula Salad

Crisp Shoestring Potatoes

Greatest influences: I was fortunate to work with both Larry Forgione and Roy Yamaguchi.

Larry was the godfather of regional American cooking, just as Roy pioneered fusion cuisine in this country.

On the menu: We print it daily. We’ll do something new every day, but we’ve developed certain signature dishes that our regulars demand.

Inspiration for new dishes: It’s a process. First I look for the freshest seasonal ingredients I can find, and then I apply a regional identity to them. If I have fresh scallops or lobster, for example, they cry out for a New England slant.

Wine program: I write the entire wine list. I became interested at the CIA when I took the course in wine education. It’s the class most chefs dread because they find wine intimidating. I became fascinated with the pairing aspect of it, how food and wine combined to become more than their single parts. We offer three dozen bottles by the glass, which gives our guests the chance to pair different options with dishes.

Favorite Naples restaurants: Any of Tony Ridgway’s restaurants, particularly Bayside Seafood Grill & Bar; he’s an icon on the Naples dining scene. I also like USS Nemo; it has some interesting Indian influences on the menu, even though the chef is French Canadian.

Pet peeves: I’m pretty easygoing, but mediocrity really sets me off—anytime I see an acceptance of something as just “good enough.”

Food I crave: If I were on death row, I’d order prime rib au jus for my last meal, complete with a loaded baked potato and Yorkshire pudding—bone-in, of course. —Mark Spivak

Taste Get a hefty helping of Grecian culture at the annual St. Katherine Greek Orthodox Church of Naples’ Greek Fest February 6 through 8. The activities include dance troupes decked out in traditional dress, music and kid-friendly fun, such as a bounce house and rock-climbing wall. The main draw, of course, is the food. Dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves), Greek salad, pastitsio (a casserole of pasta, meat and creamy béchamel), saganaki (flaming cheese), loukoumades (honey puffs), baklava, and other authentic delicacies will tempt attendees. The festival offers a drive-through pickup service, too, making it easy to bring home all those delicious foods. A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit the “Agape” Fund, the charitable arm of the church that distributes dollars to local charities, and the Helping Kids With Cancer Radiothon for the Golisano Children’s Hospital of Southwest Florida.

Despite being a good student, Ron developed an intense fear of school and refused to go. Depressed and directionless, he abused alcohol and bounced between jobs, homes and towns. By the time he was 23, he had experienced the desperation of homelessness more than once, and had been in several Crisis Units. He was finally diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but without a job or housing, he had no plans. Then he made his way to DLC. DLC referred him to a shelter and into the Project for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness Program. They helped Ron enroll at FGCU for a degree in software engineering and secured financial aid and campus housing.

In just eight months, Ron is stable, sober and armed with the skills he needs to manage his illness. He now has a support system and plans for a bright future.

His Mind is Our Concern.

Mental health is a community issue.

Fortunately, there’s a community solution.

Ron is among one in four in Collier County who suffer from a mental illness. One in ten of us will experience some form of substance abuse. When a family member, friend or coworker battles a mental health or substance abuse problem, we suffer with them.

Thankfully, David Lawrence Center is here for our community.

A not-for-profit organization founded and still governed by community leaders, the David Lawrence Center is the behavioral health component of our community’s healthcare network.

A true local resource, it relies on donations, fees and grants to invest in the health, safety and wellbeing of our community.

When you or someone you love needs help, call on the highly compassionate, committed and competent professionals of the David Lawrence Center to inspire you to move beyond the crisis towards life-changing wellness.

Reality Check

We examine the myths surrounding sulfites in wine to uncork the truth in the controversy

Rob Sinskey

By Mark SPivak

All wine contains sulfites, whether they are organic or from Europe. The bubbles in the fermenting grapes, below, are from the presence of sulfur dioxide.

The issue of sulfites is one of the most contentious among wine connoisseurs—particularly in recent years, when consumers have been demanding a more natural style of wine.

Do sulfites really pose a health risk? Here are some of the commonly held myths, along with a dose of reality.

Myth: Not all wines contain sulfites.

Reality: In fact, they do. Sulfites are present on the skins of grapes, and sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a natural byproduct of fermentation, so all wine will have at least a small amount of sulfur. For many wine drinkers, the problem (if there is one) is added sulfur during the wine-making process.

Myth: If you get headaches after drinking wine, you must be allergic to sulfites.

Reality: The only way to know for sure is

to undergo allergy testing, which tends to be time-consuming and expensive.

You could easily be having a reaction to histamines, or to the tannin in red wine. If you are allergic to sulfites, remember they are present in dozens of food products—everything from pie crust to vegetable juice, not to mention antibiotics and cardiovascular drugs. In some cases, the sulfite levels in these items are actually higher than in wine.

Myth: European wines contain less sulfur than wines made in America because only American wines carry a label that says “Contains Sulfites.” Plus, you never seem to get the bad headaches while drinking wine on vacation in Europe.

A wine low in sulfur content to try is Michel Chapoutier La Bernadine.

Organic certification in America focuses on grape growing, not wine making. Another low-sulfur wine to seek out is Chappellet Signature Cabernet.

Reality: First, sulfur has been used as a preservative for thousands of years. Adding a small amount of sulfur or sulfur dioxide is common in wines made around the world, though you may not have known it because many countries do not require that it be disclosed on the label. When in Europe, vacationers are also often drinking the local wine.

This is likely a product made in small batches for local consumption, with no need to add additional preservatives. In this country, every bottle of wine sold in America must carry the “Contains Sulfites” label, regardless of where it was made. The legislation authorizing the sulfite warning label was passed in 1986. The primary congressional booster for the bill was the late Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, a confirmed teetotaler. Thurmond was convinced that the label language would dissuade a number of people from consuming wine, and he was apparently correct.

Myth: Organic wines contain less sulfites.

Reality: Organic certification in the States focuses on grape growing, not wine making.

Any amount of sulfur can be added to organically grown grapes during the aging process.

Myth: Cheaper wines contain more sulfites than expensive bottles.

Reality: Large, mass-production wineries tend to use more sulfur than smaller operations, so this is sometimes true.

Myth: It’s difficult to find good bottles of commercially available wine with low levels of sulfites.

Reality: They are available, you just may have to search for them. On the lower end of the price scale, Fetzer has been producing organically grown, low-sulfur wine for decades.

In the mid-priced range, Chappellet’s Signature Cabernet ($60) and entry level Mountain Cuvée ($30) are carefully made in relatively small batches from organic grapes; Robert Sinskey’s wines are in the same category, and the Los Carneros Pinot Noir ($40) is well worth checking out. On the high end, try the wines of Michel Chapoutier in the Rhône Valley, particularly his two Chateauneuf-du-Pape: La Bernadine ($55) and Barbe-Rac ($105). «

Alina Olinger, project leader Collins & DuPont Interior Design

Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: Living on the Gulf Coast, the majority of my inspiration is found in nature. Using a coastal color palette that pulls the tones of the water, sand and surrounding greenery makes for a naturally harmonious living space. From rustic wood to oyster shells to rough crystals, I draw ideas and inspiration from even the most subtle nature-based accents.

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: Residential custom homes. Working side by side with clients to create a space reflective of their vision and their lifestyle is priceless. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing the beginning stages, like the interior detailing, to the ending phases, like the bedding and linens, come together. Unifying the multifaceted areas of design in a unique, cutting-edge way that directly correlates with the client’s vision is profoundly rewarding.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: Less is more. Getting rid of the clutter accentuates the elegant lines and beautiful silhouettes in a home’s architectural details while allowing the furniture to stand out and be appreciated. I’ve also noticed a new trend towards a more classic design that incorporates clean, strong lines with a transitional to contemporary flare.

Design West In Mercato Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: For me, design is inspired by three factors. One is the fashion industry; textiles, color and fashion trends lead to interior design trends, which is why we are proud to bring Ralph Lauren Home to our design center in Mercato. The second is nature, where I find harmony, symmetry, color, balance, scale and proportion. Finally, I have a passion for travel. The more you are exposed to different customs and countries, the deeper your creative well.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: Design has been moving towards the integration of natural, organic elements. Contemporary, clean lines mixed with earthy, natural accents are trending. Tonal “washed” finishes give a soft feel that mixes well with rich, darker colors. Backgrounds are becoming lighter and more neutral, using layers of texture. Bigger outdoor

kitchens, patios and outdoor luxury items will continue to be the rage. The integration of technology with a refined design aesthetic is also in demand.

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: We specialize in high-end residential interior design, floor planning, furniture, custom cabinetry, accessories and installation. From the concept stage through the entire building process, we provide turnkey design and project management. Our designers have varying styles and ideas, and collaborating as a team helps us achieve award-winning results in tune with each client’s desires.

Integrating brands like Ralph Lauren Home and Bang & Olufsen, we create a unique blend of casual luxury and timeless elegance as can be seen in the 2015 Golf Magazine National Dream Home, for which Design West has been selected as the design team.

Thomas Riley Studio Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: Timeless design and craftsmanship that evokes a sense of the past but is realized in an entirely new and contemporary context … “modern heirlooms and future antiquities.” I like design to tell a story. Like art, it should be thoughtful and engaging. Each client, or project, presents a unique scenario from which to extract meaningful associations and points of reference.

It’s important to make the design originate from there, because it feels more authentic.

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: Thomas Riley Studio is a gallery and design atelier specializing in contemporary craft, fine art and design.

We advocate an interdisciplinary approach that is about creating something new by transcending boundaries and blurring the lines of distinction. We design and manufacture exclusive proprietary furnishings in our Naples atelier, offering unique commissions and limited-edition pieces. We enjoy working with homeowners and interior designers to select pieces specific to their vision.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: After spending a week in Miami for Art Basel, I can easily identify the following trends in contemporary art and design: graffiti/street art; digital tools/technologies (2D and 3D); large format (bigger is not always better).

Alison Craig Home Furnishings, Naples Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: A successful interior is not determined by the cost of its components. We are all about achieving a high-end look at a great price. Mix up your rooms “high and low.”

It’s a good practice because it keeps the total cost of your room lower and also ensures you have an interesting mix of pieces, rather then looking like it was lifted out of the pages of a specific brand’s catalog.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: Embrace color! Spring’s “It” hue isn’t one shade but a kaleidoscope of tones. Just as the seasons shift from winters’ muted tones to spring sunshine, interior trends are bursting from the monochromatic doldrums and embracing the full spectrum. Chase the rainbow into the living room

with sofas in vibrant prints and chairs with fabrics in deep inky blues, poppy reds, blush pinks and marigold yellows.

Break the rules…let the prism be your guide!

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: The design team at Alison Craig can help clients create rooms that reflect their individual style, whether it be island tropical, classic Old World, modern chic or comfy and casual. With some of the best-known brands in the industry—such as Theodore Alexander, Stanley and Henredon Leather—at their fingertips, the design team will assist in choosing not only the right furnishings but also the perfect accessories, art, Karastan rugs, lighting and more.

Dorry Christy, ASID Gary David Designs inc.

Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: My design inspiration comes from the beauty and bounty around us—the gorgeous textiles, furnishings and accessories that make each interior unique. To be inspired to fulfill the dreams of my client is indeed a task I take very seriously, and to have a truly happy client at the end of our project is always my goal!

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: We are seeing more pattern and color, but I try to steer clear of the inherent trendy push. Having classic foundation pieces is always in good taste, and updating a classic look with a new, vibrant color palette is certainly a plus. The key is to use trends in moderation—have fun

with it! Gone are the stiff requirements of yesteryear, and in the forefront are modern twists the newer generation craves. Change can be good!

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: I love doing residential design: homes, apartments, condominiums and live-aboard yachts. Each design is drawn from what I learn about the client—about how he or she enjoys time at home or aboard a yacht.

Residential design is very personal between my client and myself, and each project demands the utmost care and concern to meet the client’s needs.

Heather Serrano Designs Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: Simply, my clients. At the end of any project, the space must reflect the client’s signature and personality.

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: Window treatments and finishing appointments.

Without these moments, a space clearly is not dressed properly.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: From my viewpoint, trends are meant to be set. It has always been my choice to never duplicate any two designs. To me, being creative is always the trend.

Judith Liegeois Designs Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: Everything! My clients certainly inspire me, and of course so do my staff members—they are all so talented. Inspiration is a collaboration of thoughts, ideas and perspective. It can come from travel, fashion, books, art, photography, stories and especially nature.

Debbie DeMaria, ASID, IDS Vogue Interiors

Q: What is your design inspiration?

A: Vogue’s award-winning designers view interior spaces as broad canvases offering endless possibilities for creativity.

Our inspiration starts with our clients. We create designs that reflect their unique personal styles and aspirations.

With that in mind, a piece of art, a swath of fabric, an architectural detail, textural elements or a unique color can inspire a complete design. We believe a well-designed room should please the eye, stimulate the mind, be welcoming and excite.

Q: What are the latest trends in your industry?

A: Homeowners are trending to open living spaces featuring transitional designs with contemporary twists, light wood tones and architectural details such as geometric ceiling designs. Neutral backgrounds that work with different furnishings and collected items are preferred, along with pops of color from fabrics, artwork and accessories. Various colors are being brought to life by mineral tones, especially metallic and sleek textures. Also prevalent are the vibrant tones of sea colors, golds, grays, taupes and aubergine.

Q: What is your area of specialization?

A: Whether it’s a commercial project or a private residence, Vogue’s licensed interior designers work with remodel and new-build clients and contractors from concept through completion to create and execute compelling designs. For more than three decades, Vogue has created luxurious, comfortable spaces in which to live, work and play—places where people feel warm, welcomed and at ease. We believe a glimpse into a home or business should be aesthetically pleasing, effortlessly functional and extraordinarily experiential.

Outdoor Screens at the Touch of a Button!

Automated roll-up screens for residential and commercial applications are the newest technology for large openings. At the touch of a button they provide the ideal environment for insect, sun and/or privacy control.

When the screens are lowered there is minimal reduction in ambient light, outward visibility and air flow while keeping out windblown debris, insects, and other pesky critters. When not in use they vanish to leave a completely unobstructed view of nature.

Balance Matt Miller

for (App thAT! )

Calm Canines One of the most common canine behavior issues is separation anxiety. Hearing your dog howl incessantly when you leave or having it jump all over you when you come home is bittersweet. You love the affection, but left unchecked, it can cause serious harm to beloved four-legged friends. Matt Miller, dog trainer at the Humane Society Naples, shares seven ways to train your dog to calm down.

Ignore your dog when you walk in the door. Many people encourage their dog’s excited behavior when they come home, seeing it as a sign of affection. “It’s harder for people to ignore the dog than it is for the dog to calm down. But as excited as they are to see you, remember they will be just as anxious when you go,” says Miller, who leads individual and group training sessions at Humane Society Naples (hsnaples.org, 239643-1555). “If you wait to acknowledge the dog until it is in a calmer state of mind, it won’t be as big a deal to him when you leave.”

Don’t make a fuss. One of the worst things to do when you leave the house is to coddle your pooch in a childlike tone of voice, saying things like, “It’s okay. Everything is all right.” Instead of a calming effect, that actually projects anxiety onto the dog. Instead, Miller suggests using toys stuffed with peanut butter or another treat so the dog will chew on it for about 15 to 20 minutes to get at the goods. By then, you’re gone and presumably the dog is relaxed and can sleep until you come home.

Play peekaboo games. Before you plan to leave for several hours, open the door, step out then quickly come back in before the dog gets anxious. Then, reward him for sitting calmly. Increase the time from seconds to a few minutes, rewarding the dog along the way. “It teach-

es the dog that a calm, relaxed behavior gets us to come home rather than panting and excitement,” Miller says.

Change your patterns. While dogs don’t understand time, they recognize routine patterns. For example, they know when the suitcase comes out you’re going to be gone for a while. Anxiety triggers can even be as simple as picking up keys or putting your shoes on. “To desensitize them, pick your keys up, then put them back down, go sit on the couch and give the dog a treat for sitting calmly,” Miller says. “You’re teaching the dog to relax, then the dog can’t predict the pattern and realizes that every time you pick up your keys you don’t leave.”

Be the leader of the pack. “When we let a dog do whatever it wants, but then want it to listen at other times, it is confusing,” Miller says, “and when a dog is confused you can start to see outbursts of bad behavior.” Bottom line: Dogs look to us for leadership and guidance, and if we’re not giving it to them, they’re left to do it on their own and that can make for a very anxious animal. Also, take your pet out for structured walks on a regular basis so they can burn off some of the extra energy.

If the anxiety persists or worsens, seek professional help. In some extreme cases, when behavior therapy is not working, medication may be necessary, if only for a short period of time. Miller recommends pet owners first check with their vet to rule out any medical conditions that could be causing a behavior issue.

With so many food, household and personal-care products on the market, it’s hard to determine which ones excel in health, safety and environmental impact. The GoodGuide app takes the guesswork out of finding ethical products for yourself and your family. Scan barcodes or search a database of more than 120,000 products, covering everything from baby shampoos to bathroom cleaners to dog foods. Each item is scored from 1 to 10 in the areas of health, environment and social impact—plus, there's an overall score based on the average of the three criteria. (goodguide.com)

As more men turn to spas to decompress, an increasing number of treatments are being tailored just for them, from facials to foot scrubs and massages for those weekend warriors. Here are a half-dozen to consider: Facials specifically designed for men work to cleanse and exfoliate the skin, and many spas usually include a few extras. The Supernatural Men’s facial at The Ritz-Carlton, Naples (ritzcarlton.com/naples), aims to reduce the irritation and inflammation effects of shaving—and includes a neck and shoulder massage (50 minutes, $160; 80 minutes, $215). The Gentlemen’s Facial at Naples Grande Beach Resort (naplesgrande.com) uses steam towels to open the pores. The 80-minute treatment includes a paraffin hand masque and scalp massage (50 minutes, $140; 80 minutes, $215). The Men’s Rescue facial at Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa in Bonita Springs (coconutpoint .hyatt.com) includes a shoulder, hand and scalp massage (50 minutes, $130).

Purely You Spa in Naples (purelyyouspa .com) recently intrpduced a treatment for men targeting an area many tend to overlook: feet. The Gentlemen’s Organic Therapeutic Foot Scrub exfoliates dry or chafed feet with an organic sugar scrub, followed by warm towels that are used to target pressure points and improve circulation. (30 minutes, $95).

Step Up

While there’s no denying that your LBD looks much more glamorous when paired with the perfect Christian Louboutin stilettos, wearing high heels can have painful effects on your body—from immediate ankle soreness to chronic back pain.

“My best advice is to lower your heels,” says Cheryl Foley, director of physical therapy at Family Foot & Leg Center of Naples. “Your arch is there to cushion your weight, and high heels take the arch out of the picture.”

If lowering your heel height is an unappealing option, there are several simple things you can do to help ease the pain. “Moving your feet is important,” says Dr. T. Foster Bryant, owner and manager of Iron Tribe Fitness, Naples, and founder of Jubilee Chiropractic. “People often come home after a long day of wearing heels and just kick them off and relax. But you want to get motion in your feet to alleviate the pain. You’re locking them in an extreme plantar flexion position all day, so you want to mirror image the opposite position, which is dorsiflexion.”

Bryant recommends practicing these five exercises.

Ankle and leg stretches: ● Place your feet shoulder-width apart with your heels slightly turned out, and squat down as if you were going to sit on the ground. Stay in the deep squat for 30 seconds to a minute, if possible. ● While seated upright, place a towel underneath your toes and then sit back, holding onto each end of the towel to stretch your calf muscle.

Foot and ankle exercises: ● Walk on the beach barefoot on the soft sand. ● Write out the ABCs in the air with your big toe, while lying on your back. ● Put a towel on the floor with a weight on it (a can of soup or a gallon jug work great) and then pull the towel around the room with your toes. —Emily Wilson NAPLESillustrated.com | FEBRUARY 2015

Razzle Dazzle

The Broadway production of the iconic, six-time Tony Award-winning musical Chicago sizzles on stage at Artis—Naples late this month. Capturing the smoky, steamy aura of Chi-Town circa the 1920s, the show features fabulous choreography, a jazzy score and plenty of scandalous characters. It’s a classic production that never fails to enthrall with its tale of murderous women, corruption and treachery—all delivered with show-stopping musical numbers. Chicago is a true classic, having been staged around the world since the original debuted in 1995 on Broadway. Performances run February 24 through March 1. (artisnaples.org) —Kat Smith

Giving BACK

Safe Sanctuary After nearly a decade of involvement with The Shelter for Abused Women & Children, Naples residents John and Georgia DallePezze have witnessed firsthand the heartbreaking aftermath of domestic violence. “Hearing children speak about the safety of their mothers is very emotional,” Georgia says. “But it also makes us feel good and proud that we were able to help.”

The charity offers emergency shelter and transitional housing for women and children who have been affected by domestic violence. It also provides outreach services, training and education throughout Collier County.

Georgia first became involved with the Shelter in 2005, when she joined the Shelter Guild, a group of about 50 women advocates. The following year, Georgia served as President of the Guild. She also launched the Monarch Society to honor the Shelter’s major donors, and she recently completed a six-year term on the board of trustees. John has been a supporter of the Gentle’men Against Domestic Violence for several years, which hosts an annual event to raise awareness among men.

Throughout the years, the DallePezzes have contributed several hundred thousand dollars to the Shelter, funds that have helped support the Shelter from the Storm Luncheon, the Monarch Society, the annual Gentle’men Against Domestic Violence event and the Mending Broken Hearts with Hope Luncheon.

“Our emphasis overall has been in underwriting programs so that other individuals who may not be in the same position we are in can then implement the programs,” Georgia says. “Another part of our role is to educate and inform others who also might have the means to give.”

In addition to the immediate safety the Shelter provides women and children, the organization’s ultimate goal is to prevail over domestic violence. “We know that when you empower women, you empower families,” Georgia says. “And when you empower families, you empower the next generation.” «
