| With luxury cars comes the need for dependable high-performance tires; you can't just put anything on your Maserati and expect to get the most from it. There are plenty of tire brands out there that promise to give you the best but looking at their history and track record definitely helps when figuring out which name to go with. It also certainly doesn't hurt if the company is present in over 160 countries and is sitting pretty as one of the world's top five tire manufacturers in regards to revenue. If you haven't already guessed, we're talking about

| An awe-inspiring sight greeted travelers in the Grand Canyon recently as Bentley unveiled its brand new Continental GT Speed Convertible to a group of key media during an epic 600-mile journey. Beginning in Scottsdale, Arizona and traveling to Las Vegas via historic Route 66, the phalanx of Bentleys in a rainbow of colors proved to be stiff competition for some of the world’s most famous scenery. |

| Malibu is arguably one of the greatest beach spots in the world; it has the ocean, the beach, the surf, and trails that accommodate hikers, bikers, and runners alike. This area is so great that the Beach Boys made it famous in "Surfin' USA," which was about the great surf at County Line Beach. Aside from the music and activities, there is also the deluxe community of MariSol Malibu. |

| We hear that flying is supposedly safer than other forms of travel, such as driving and rail — try telling that to your shaking legs at 20,000 feet though. Whether you are flying commercial or on a luxury private jet, flying jitters can overcome even the best of us. One thing an aviation company can do to assuage fears is make sure their technicians undergo the best training possible and Flexjet has done just that. To prove their commitment to safety, the company just received its 14th consecutive Diamond Award of Excellence. |

| The Caribbean is filled with ingredients fresh from-the-tree and garden, along with fish caught daily right off shore. However, up until just five years ago many Cayman Island restaurants simply had key ingredients shipped in from elsewhere. On the surface, this decision may seem like lunacy; why not simply harvest what's in your backyard rather than have it shipped from around the globe? |

| If you know anything about cars you know that the right tires can make all the difference in your car's handling. They can change the way you're able to drive your luxury vehicle in various weather conditions, the right wheel allowing you to take those rainy corners a little faster and a little tighter. Not only does the right set enable you to push your car to the max, it keeps you safer while doing so. With so many different brands out there, some meant for off-roading and some meant for specific seasons (summer, snow, and all season), you might find it difficult to figure out which type you specifically need for your auto. |

| The 85th Academy Awards are officially over for another year; the gold statues have been handed out, the speeches recited and the gracious losing faces put to good use. This year's awards was hosted by Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane, known for his sharp humor and across-the-board mockery, which probably put a few people on the edges of their seats with worry as to what he would say. His turn as host was actually pretty tame (for him anyway), save for a couple jokes that got people laughing nervously (guess it's still too soon to joke about Lincoln's assassination). |

| Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich has brought Eclipse, the world’s largest private luxury yacht, to New York City for the first time ever, where it will reportedly remain docked for over a month. Over the weekend the oligarch, who is worth $12 billion, docked the $800 million, 557-foot vessel in Midtown Manhattan in a berth usually occupied by a cruise ship where it has attracted hordes of onlookers. |

Unfortunately, the new RS6 Avant won't be available in North America, but as predicted, Audi has followed up with an even more enticing option that will be. |

| While being able to whip up a five-course meal for a dinner date is impressive, all that really matters is the dessert, in my opinion. Getting take-out is even acceptable if you make something impressive to eat afterwards. This recipe for Dark Chocolate Almond Milk Custard with Fruit and Nut Granola fits the bill perfectly because, after all, how can you go wrong with chocolate? |

| Try to imagine the vehicle you'd choose for a cross-continental tour and you could do a lot worse than a Maserati. The GranTurismo and Quattroporte do, after all, offer an ideal blend of speed and luxury. But though it just set a new record for traveling from New York to San Francisco, this Maserati isn't a car at all. It's a sailboat. |

The 1 Hotel & Residences South Beach will now offer residential luxury units operated by SH group (Starwood’s hotel management company) atop their 417-room hotel, designed around a firm eco-conscience. |

| For those who wish to take part in rock-n-roll history, games like Guitar Hero provide a stage for players to try to match their skills to those of legendary musicians like Elvis, Slash, and Jimi. No matter your score though, you're still playing with a plastic guitar with color-coded buttons, which pales in comparison to playing the real deal. Even if you're not a consummate musician who can work a fret as well as a remote, anyone can appreciate the select few guitars that contributed to and represent rock-n-roll history. |

| Where art and commerce meet is a tricky intersection, especially when putting a price on street art which espouses social and political theory. Banksy, a British artist whose work speaks of these issues, is usually very elusive, but we would like to hear his opinion regarding an upcoming auction of one of his wall murals. |

Besides its natural beauty and its incredibly friendly Kiwi population of just over four million, it is becoming known as a new culinary destination travel Mecca. More than any other place on the island, Auckland, with its diverse population and over 900 restaurants, is a food and wine "must do" for the culinarily curious. |
