LOOKING BACK AT THE

MET GALA A

rguably the most important annual event in fashion, the “Met Gala” (formally known as the Costume Institute Gala) has been an ostentatious display of wealth and art at New York’s Metropolitan Museum since 1948. But under the heavy-handed direction of Vogue editor Anna Wintour, the celebrity-packed spectacle has come under criticism in recent years. With Wintour rumored to be leaving Vogue in September, some notable snubs from the likes of Beyoncé, and outright bashing by Gwyneth Paltrow, Demi Lovato, and Amy Schumer, among others, speculation is mounting that the event may not be held again — at least, not in the same form. The increasing cost of putting on the spectacle, added to the fact that the gala has been raising less money for the Costume Institute in recent years, is a trend that seems to defeat the purpose of what is supposed to be a charity. Participating donors complain about the $50,000 per ticket, and $500,000 from designers who want to buy a table for the stars who wear their creations. The whole aﬀair is starting to be viewed as more of a burden than a party. So, before the party is oﬃcially over, we thought we’d take a look at some highlights of the fabulous outrageousness that is the Met Gala this year and in years past.

BEST GOLF APPS You'll Actually Use By Travis Richardson | www.blog.nextgengolf.org I wrote an article in January 2016 titled “5 Lessons learned at the PGA Show”, which included a statement stating that there are just too many golf apps out there. Many of which attempt to do the same functions as the other, with only minor improvements over the existing apps. While my stance on the number of apps has not changed, but thought I would use this article to highlight a few golf apps that actually solve problems for golfers.

Problem: Keeping Track of your Handicap for free Solution: The Grint Lets face it, paying $50 to track a handicap in golf using GHIN with poor technology is a waste of money. I am a very traditional golfer and believe in the golf handicapping system, but as a millennial consumer, I can speak that this generation does not see the value in paying $50 to type numbers into a system which calculates a formula. After college when I stopped playing in competitive events, there was no reason for me to keep a handicap any longer. I still played golf and loved the game, but my game was not at the level needed to retain a GHIN handicap and pay the fee. Step in the Grint, a solution for golfers to track their handicap at no cost to the consumer. The interesting thing about the Grint is that there is no cost, you can take a picture of your scorecard instead of manually typing in scores, the mobile/web technology is quite strong, and the handicap is officially recognized by the USGA. I was skeptical at first, but over the last 3 years I have played in a few competitive events and my Grint handicap has been accepted at every event. If you are someone that does not understand the handicap system or does not want to pay the $50 fee to track your scores, the Grint is a great solution to your problem.

Problem: I don't have anyone to play with at my age or skill level Solution: GolfMatch If you are a new golfer, new to a city, or an avid player that’s not a member of a club, finding players that are of your age, skill level, or share the same habits can be difficult. Most people are fortunate to have golf friends, but if you are one of those people that is a golf nut and wants to play with new people or select the people you play with before going to the course, I have an App for you. GolfMatch is an interesting company that has figured out a simple way to connect golfers together by aggregating data about golfers and presenting opportunities for golfers to connect virtually and play together in person. I am a member of a men’s club public golf course so finding a normal game during the week is fairly easy, but if I am traveling to a new area and looking for a game with people I actually want to play with, or looking for players to join my City Tour team, GolfMatch helps me. By going on GolfMatch I can discover new courses to play in the area, find people around me to play and book a tee time directly on the app. If you are someone newer to the game, on the road looking for a match, and just looking to find new interesting people to play with GolfMatch makes it easy to connect with other golfers locally.

Problem: Keeping track of side games on the course Solution: 18birdies Like many of you, I am a big fan of having a friendly match on the golf course for a few bucks. Depending on who you play with, dots for sandies, birdies, barkies, polies, and whatever else can get overwhelming. This app is primarily known for their GPS technology, but I have found their side game functionality to be of most useful for me and my friends. When you download the app, you can easily add your friends into the app and keep track of the wagers you have on the course. I recently used the app on a buddies golf trip where there was 16 of us playing 54 holes in 3 days. Keeping track of the tab on who owes who money was difficult and this app helped us keep track of our $1 bets. It shouldn’t be too hard to keep track of this stuff, but many of you who still use the pen and paper to keep track of bets on a buddies golf trip should start using 18birdies.

MOST EXPENSIVE

SUPERYACHTS OF THE WORLD

Sailing around the world is one of the most interesting and exciting things that you can ever experience in your life. Imagine that you have your own boat or yacht and that you can take it whenever you want to visit different places while enjoying the best moments of your life in the sea. Having a yacht is not easy as it requires spending a lot of money and preparing this yacht through equipping it with all the necessities and amenities that you may need while sailing requires spending more and more money which makes possessing a yacht unaffordable for most of the people. Most of those who own a yacht are very rich and for this reason the yacht is considered to be a sign of luxury and the wealthy life that the owner of the yacht lives. There are yachts which are very high in their prices to the extent that they cost billions of dollars and just millions. If you do not believe that, take a look at the following top 5 most expensive boats in the world.

#5 “Al Said” $300 Million Its construction was launched in 2007 and was completely finished in 2008 to be the 2nd largest yacht during that time. This yacht was formerly known as Project Sunflower and was named later after its owner as it belongs to Sultan Qaboos Bin Said Al Said of Oman. The yacht features an aluminum superstructure and it can accommodate a crew of 154 in addition to 70 guests.

#4 “Superyacht A” $323 Million It was constructed by Philippe Stark and its interior and exterior designs are unique. It is owned by Andrei Melnichenko who is a Russian billionaire. It was tried for the first time in 2008 and was completely finished in 2009. The yacht is large enough for accommodating a crew of 37, 14 guests and 5 staffs. 32 The Presidential Magazine

#3 “Dubai” $350 Million It was formerly known as Platinum 525 and its construction was ordered in 1996 by Brunei’s Prince Jefri Bolkiah. The project was unfortunately stopped until it was ordered again by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum who is the UAE Prime Minister. The yacht was called before as the largest super yacht in the world as it is 525 feet. It features many amenities that allow you to spend a luxurious life and enjoy your time as you can find a swimming pool, spa, booths for spa, helipad, glass staircase and other amenities that make this yacht called the floating city.

#2 “Eclipse” $800 Million It is the 2nd most expensive private yacht in the world. It is owned by Roman Abromavich, who is a Russian billionaire, and was constructed in Hamburg, Germany. The yacht is approximately 528 feet to be the largest private yacht in the world. What makes this yacht unique is its defense technology as it features a private intruder detecting system for detecting cameras and blocking them in order not to take photos through using light. For the amenities that are presented by this yacht, you can find 24 rooms which are constructed for guests, mini submarine, two helicopter pads and more.

#1 “History Supreme” $4.8 Billion It is the most expensive private yacht in the world and is also called Baia 100 Supreme. It is claimed that it belongs to a Malaysian businessman whose name is unknown. What increases the price of this yacht is that it was constructed through using rare and precious materials such as tiny meteorites, dinosaur bones, precious metals as there are 100,000 kg of platinum and gold that are used for decorating the yacht and increasing its luxury and there are also precious stones which are used for decorating different parts such as the deck, dining area and the anchor. What a lavish yacht! The Presidential Magazine 33

Meet The World’s First Diamond Car, The Rolls-Royce Ghost Elegance By Nargess Banks , Contributor, Forbes Magazine

A thousand crushed diamonds twinkle through the silkysmooth surface of the Rolls-Royce in front of me at the Geneva Motor Show. This rare Ghost was customized for an unnamed client as an ultimate expression of luxury. It indicates the British marque’s expert craft skills by previewing the world’s first ‘diamond stardust’- paint infused with a thousand ethically-sourced crushed diamonds. I am told the paint is the most expensive to grace the body of a Rolls-Royce and that the process was also long and complex. A specialist team at the carmaker’s bespoke division worked closely with the diamond specialists Jean Boulle Luxury Group who specifically sourced the natural gem-quality diamonds from Namibia, meticulously examining the dimensions of each precious stone to evaluate the transmission and reflection of light. They then created a very fine diamond powder which the Rolls-Royce technicians infused with the paint for a smooth surface and subtle shimmer. Finally, the master painter at Rolls-Royce applied the last touches with a squirrel-hair paint brush. The result really is magical. “Diamonds are Rolls-Royce’s best friend,” jokes director of design Giles Taylor as we admire the car. He says the owner is a real Rolls-Royce connoisseur - a collector and that it was he who came to the studio with this idea. “Such customers will say ‘I bet you can’t achieve this’ and it sets the challenge for us. Projects like this are an impetus to try new things.”

of bespoke is that when we have the request we then need to deliver within six months. In this case, it was the ingenuity of the paint engineers who made it possible. It was a challenge as the diamonds would lift to the surface so our technicians did whatever they could to make it work.” Rolls-Royce dedicated the exhibition stand at Geneva to showcasing the full breadth of its bespoke services. This includes ‘Dawn - Inspired by Fashion’, reflecting the color themes of the Spring/Summer 2017 fashion collections and 'Black Badge', the bespoke-engineered cars created for younger, edgier customers. I ask Taylor if his position has evolved beyond the traditional role of a car designer to help imagine experiences around personalization as the ultimate expression of luxury. “Yes, yes absolutely,” he replies. “It is a really interesting part of my job to be prepared for the unexpected. One of the core elements of our bespoke involves being able to offer unusual and rare materials. We are going to cultivate that part of the design service. We need to be at the very top of the bespoke tree. This is where we have to be to make sure we’re not just peddling bespoke.”

Taylor’s creative studio has an innovations budget to allow the team to try new ideas in design and materials and, if they work, feed them into future production cars. “The immediacy 40 The Presidential Magazine

Rolls-Royce is already an expert at tailoring. A visit to Goodwood to see the master artisans at work, crafting the cars almost by hand, is a very special experience. Taylor, though, wants Rolls to be the carmaker offering that extra layer - that element of intrigue, of surprise, he says, “along the lines of diamond flakes in paint”. “Other carmaker will say they have bespoke too yet it is my challenge to come into this creative arena to give a customer something absolutely exquisite.” His team of creatives stay on top of what’s happening in the world in terms of design and innovation. “The customer may not have asked for something, but our job is to know their taste and to suggest it.”

WINE

Enjoying Reds in the Summer

BY GEORGE DAUPHIN

s summer approaches, we tend to stay away from the warmer, heavier red wines. So, how do we keep getting the same antioxidants that reds such as Cabernets and Merlots offer? Let’s first address some misinformation regarding red wine. The common wisdom is that we are supposed to drink a red wine at “room temperature.” But does mean that if you’re at a garden party in South Beach where the temperature is 90 degrees, the wine in your hand should also be 90 degrees? I hope not. The myth comes from a misun- C O U R T E S Y O F B I G S T O C K P H O T O . C O M derstanding of what the French refer to as “room temperature.” French winemakers prefer their reds at the temperature of the tasting rooms in the cellars where their wines are sampled and aged. That cellar temperature is about 55-58 degrees Fahrenheit. If you have a wine cellar in your house, keep it at that constant, and enjoy refreshing red wines all summer long. Obviously, the same holds for smaller wine coolers. Connoisseurs have a number of options, from built-in climate control units, to off-site storage services, which include Cat. 5 hurricane resistant vaults. If you are serious about wine, such a vault will ensure the safety of your wine during such a storm, although your house might be gone. When buying wine, here are some tips to getting the best quality and to keep your purchase from overheating: • It begins in the parking lot of the store where you purchase your wine. Park your car in a cool spot. Once you place the wine in your cool car, take it straight home. Don’t make stops along the way, leaving the wine to cook in an overheated car. You may consider putting a portable cooler in your trunk for just for the trip. Otherwise, the floor behind the driver’s seat may be the best spot for your purchase. • Choose your wine merchant carefully. Buy from a retailer who knows how to store wine. Make sure his wines are stored with the bottle lying down, in a cool place, away from direct sunlight, and away from the front door, where it could be affected by blasts of heat as customers walk in. • If you buy by the case, ask to see the cases before you pay for them. Make sure they were stored so that the bottles are either lying down or upside down. This applies to corked bottles. 42 The Presidential Magazine

• Check to see if the store is kept clean. A clean store means the management cares about how your product is handled. You should also know that a bottle of wine, whether corked or screw-capped, interacts with its environment. Bad odors, chemicals, agitation, and even sound will affect the quality of a wine. It sounds crazy to say that really bad, loud music will diminish the quality of a wine. But if you are spending over $100 for a bottle, you are entitled to consider every little thing that could affect that wine. There are some red wines that can be chilled on ice. Lambrusco, Sangria (not really a wine, but I will leave it in this category), red viño verde, and Beaujolais — to some extent — come to mind. But, in general, you do not want to ice-chill a red wine to a temperature that is lower than the aforementioned “cellar temperature.” If you see red wine being chilled at a store, it’s a sign they don’t know how to treat their wines in general. A red flag. If a guest brings a bottle of red that is warm to the touch, a 5-minute cool-off in a regular refrigerator before opening will not do any harm. A classic way to drink reds in the summer heat is to make sangria. There are various recipes. Here is a variation on the classic: • 3 cups white rum • 4 cups red wine • 2 cups orange juice • 1 cup simple syrup • 2 cups of Lemon-Lime soda (Sprite or 7-Up can be substituted) • One sliced orange, peach and other fruits to taste Combine in a pitcher. Add Berries and strawberries to taste. A sprig of mint can be used as garnish. If orange is not sweet, add simple syrup to taste. Pour over ice. Serves two.
