Your Golden Angel
No.34942_Wellendorff DPS.indd 2 02/01/2013 12:41
Dear Wellendorff family,
Paignton, April 29, 2011
Many years ago, while I was vacationing on the west coast of Denmark,
I found an amulet with a hand-painted angel on it. A name and year
had been engraved on the back. Since no one claimed the amulet, it
became mine, and a talisman that I wore every day.
Several years later I met an Englishman in Munich. He scrutinized
my pendant and told me that his late wife used to have an angel just
like mine. When we parted he gave me his business card, and my heart
almost stood still ... not only did he live in Denmark, his name was the
same as the one engraved on the back of the amulet. Yes, it was the same
angel that he had given to his wife on their wedding day.
Without hesitation I returned the angel to its proper owner. The situa-
tion was upsetting for both of us. I no longer had the guardian angel
I had become so fond of and he was reliving sad memories.
A few weeks later he announced he was coming to Munich over Christ-
mas. He brought me the amulet back and proposed to me! Despite the
objections of my parents and my son, who was then 20, I married the
man who was still almost a stranger, in a very quiet ceremony in Den-
mark.
In our case the amulet was a cupid that has kept us together for 29 happy
years.
Sincerely yours

OUR JANUARY FEATURE on Forrest Fenn, the
former art dealer who hid a $3 million treasure near
Santa Fe and then dropped some clues in his memoir,
drew a lot of comments. Among them was this, from
Irene Rawlings of Denver: It makes me want to buy
a pickax, rent a mule and go out on a treasure hunt.
Such a happy and optimistic way to start the new
year! Barbara Rogers of New Hampshire concurred:
What a beautiful story! It captures the sense that the
real treasure is not the contents of the chest, but how
it has red peoples imaginations. Meanwhile, John
Penuel of France enjoyed our piece on a Nobelists
wife hobnobbing at Bostons Symphony Hall. I read
this piece on a ight yesterday. It made me laugh out
loud, he wrote. I actually took the magazine with me. First time Ive ever done that.

elcome aboard, and thanks
for choosing United for your
ight today.
We invest a lot in our business and in
our customers. We have both external cus-
tomers (you) and internal customers (our
co-workers). Its important that we invest
in both. If we take care of our co-workers,
they will take care of you.
So we are making a number of invest-
ments in our co-workers, including new
customer service training for 100 percent
of our ight aendants and agents world-
wideover 44,000 people. When we nish
the training this year, everyone will be on
the same page about what great service
means and what we expect our co-workers
to deliver for you. We are also upgrading
the passenger service system interface at
our gates, in our lobbies and at our contact
centers, to give our co-workers fast, easy-
to-use tools to do their jobs.
In January, we opened a new co-worker
health clinic at OHare. Its the fifth
co-worker health clinic at United, and any
co-worker can use our clinics completely
free of charge. All our clinics, operated
by Walgreens Well Network, oer conve-
nient on-site health services to keep our
co-workers feeling and performing well.
We recently opened the first set of
newly refurbished co-worker break rooms
at our Washington-Dulles hub, featuring
a comfortable new design, and new furni-
ture and appliances for our co-workers to
use during their breaks. Break rooms are
things you will likely never see, but they
are very important to our co-workers, who
use them to relax, eat a meal, read their
e-mail, catch up on the news and socialize
with their fellow co-workers. In 2013 we
will renovate break rooms at our Chicago
and San Francisco hubs as well, and at
some of our stations that are undergoing
terminal moves. We will also complete at
least one break room at each of our other
hubs to give our co-workers a chance to see
the new design and features coming their
way. This is all part of a multiyear project
to renovate the 500 or so break rooms we
have around the globe.
The investments were making in our
co-workers show we value our co-workers,
want them to have the tools they need to
do their job, and want them to be proud to
come to work at United every day. That will
result in beer customer service for you.
Thanks again for ying with us today.
We appreciate your business and hope to
see you onboard again soon.

ll travelers have heard the familiar
phrase Sit back, relax and enjoy
the ight, spoken just aer their
ight takes to the air. But for flight aen-
dant Jane Doucee, it isnt a clichits a
personal reminder of a great responsibil-
ity, and a call to action. She comes to work
every day with a positive aitude and a
determination to make sure that every
customer whose comfort and safety have
been entrusted to her and her fellow crew
members really does enjoy the ight.
Doucettes positive attitude recently
paid offliterallywhen she walked
away with $50,000 for being named the
rst grand prize winner in Uniteds Out-
perform Recognition Program. Through
the Outperform program, MileagePlus
members may nominate an employee for
excellent service on their flight, on the
phone, at the airport or at any point in
their experience with United.
Doucette grew up in the Philip-
pines in what she describes as a very
hospitality-driven culture. My parents
owned a restaurant, and for years I grew
up watching my mother as she interacted
with customers and made them feel at
home, she recalls. That instilled in me the
love of being around people and a desire
to make sure everyone feels welcome and
has a good time.
Naturally, due to her love of people
and welcoming nature, Doucette was
encouraged to pursue a career as a ight
aendant. But she wasnt sure if the life-
stylewith its frequent travel and time
away from homewas for her. Friends
used to say that being a ight aendant
would suit me, but I didnt know if I could
get used to all the travel, she says. I moved
to the U.S. to go to college and pursued
various careers, but something seemed to
be missing. One day I thought, OK, maybe
I should give this ight aendant thing a
try. And Ive never looked back.
The airline industry oen aracts peo-
ple who like the idea of having breakfast
on one side of the Atlantic and dinner on
the other, but travel isnt Doucees high-
est priority. I enjoy making people happy,
she says. And I get the opportunity to do
that all day long. I couldnt ask for a more
fullling or fun way to spend my time. If
you start the day with the right aitude,
its tough to have a bad day.
Doucette has spent 18 years in this
customer-facing joba length of time in
which one would assume any ight aen-
dant, no maer how friendly, would have
come across a bad ight or two.
I get that question a lot, since I have
nothing but great things to say about my
job and my customers, Doucee says. In
an ideal world, I would deny ever having
a bad ight, but thats a lile unrealistic
aer so many years of ying. Sure, Ive run
into the occasional traveler who is impos-
sible to please, but thats prey rare.
Most of the time, even if I cant solve
their issue, people appreciate that I care
and I tried my best to help.

ASK THE PILOT
With Captain Mike Bowers
Q: On occasion I have
been on airplanes that,
after pushing back from
the gate at my home air-
port of Newark, moved
ahead of others already
waiting in line to take
of. What circumstances
would cause a plane to
jump the line?
A: Normally, takeof
order is as simple as rst
come, rst served. But
at busier airports like
Newark (EWR), where air
traf c controllers blend
departures with those
from LaGuardia and JFK,
there may be openings
on some departure routes
and delays on others.
To manage that, EWR
controllers may instruct
an aircraft to bypass the
one thats rst in line to
take of. In addition,
air traf c controllers
may meter aircraft at
certain times to reduce
the waiting that might
result from weather or
traf c delays. Although it
might seem confusing at
times, it is well orches-
trated and done to get
as many departures of a
given runway at any one
time, safely.
Do you have a question
for Captain Bowers?
You can write to him at
askthepilot@united.com.
IF YOU ARE SITTING on an aircra oering
United Economy Plus, you (or the person
siing next to you) may be part of the rea-
son that extra-legroom seating even exists.
Customer feedback from post-travel surveys
showed that those in Economy Plus were
more satised with their ights.
Our frequent yers are very passionate
about ying, and they typically have a lot to
say about it, says Customer Insights Senior
Manager Ma Hadeld, who spends a good
part of his day poring over the surveys.
Shortly after a MileagePlus member
travels on a direct ight, United sends him
or her an email invitation to oer feedback.
More than 8,000 customers each day rank
their experience with the airline on a scale
of 1 to 10. In a text box that allows for open
commenting, customers provide a wide
range of feedback. United uses sophisticated
text-recognition soware to read that feed-
backand act on it.
Such commentary inuences every part
of the customer experience, as United uses
travelers feedback to continue to tweak
its service. Hence the installation of more
premium-cabin at-bed seats than any other
U.S. carrier, and the addition of satellite Wi-Fi
on some 300 airplanes this year.
And feedback has also played a role in
the airlines oering of two other customer
favorites: tapas snack boxes and the Thai-
style chicken wrap. If you like them, surveys
show that youre not alone.

CALL SIGNS
This month in 1876, at his lab in Boston, Alexander Graham Bell made the worlds rst telephone call,
to assistant Thomas Watson. In the decades that followed, the U.S. has seen the rise and fall of pay phones,
the laying and abandonment of landlines, and most recently the marked and perhaps terminal decline
of the phone call itself. (Not to worry: Well have perfected telepathy in the next century anyhow.)

Ghazal Golf Club is an odd place.
One of the worlds few sand golf
courses, this Abu Dhabi institution
has its origins in the early 1960s,
during the onset of the United Arab
Emirates oil boom. In recent years,
Al Ghazal has been overshadowed
by the plush grass courses that
have sprung up around the country,
and there are rumors that it will
close this year to make way for a
new property development.
There was little danger of falling
victim to urban sprawl 50 years
ago, when a handful of expat golng
ABU DHABI
BUNKER MENTALITY
The joys of playing golf in a course-size sand trap
BY RICHARD WHITEHEAD
enthusiasts rst carved 18 holes out
of the desert sand here. The place
was empty, says club manager
Angela Scurr. It was the people
who put it all together. They were
the pioneers.
In the early days, club members
would bring their own strips
of Astroturf to use as portable
fairways. Over time, though, these
were abandoned as the golfers
like the desert lark and the sand
boa before themadapted to the
conditions. In place of greens, for
instance, they created browns:
sand mixed with oil and tamped
down. After every putt, players
must walk of single le, the last
man dragging a broom behind him
to smooth the surface.
Al Ghazal also has a host of
unusual hazards, many of which are
unique to the course. Among these
are dhub burrows, named for the
large, spiny-tailed desert lizards that
call them home; if your ball trickles
down one of the burrows, its best
to take a drop. Then theres the fact
that the front nine holes surround an
archaeological site, which contains
scattered pottery shards and stone
tools alongside stray golf balls.
Asked whether Al Ghazal itself
will soon become a historical
footnote, Scurr says absolutely
notthough she allows that certain
people have plans for the land it
occupies. For Jennings, a Jamaican
national whos been a member of
the club for eight years and who is
considered by some to be its best
player, the only concern right now
is the tricky putt facing him on the
nal hole.
Jennings sinks it and does a
little st pump, then reaches for a
broomstick, with which he brushes
away the footprints hes left behind.

In the lead-up to this years Screen
Actors Guild Awards show, the red
carpet at the Shrine Auditorium is a
mob scene of famous folks decked
out in designer nery. One attendee
in particular stands out, possibly
because shes the only one whose
ensemble is spattered with sauce.
Suzanne Goin, a James Beard
Awardwinning chef and co-owner
of L.A. celeb-magnet Lucques, is on
her fourth stint as caterer for the
SAG Awardsand she knows how
to work a red carpet. I always
make the food look good
for a big, wide-angle
shot, she says,
holding a platter
and moving through
the surging crowd with
remarkable ease.
Goin and her crew have
already had a busy day.
They spent the morning
preparing 1,200 plates of
beef, beets and slow-roasted
salmon in a Beverly Hills
kitchen, then trucked it all
over to an enclosure in the
Shrine parking lot for
plating. Now the food
is being delivered to the
tables before guests
are seated, to be eaten
during the show.
We make a huge
efort to keep the whole
thing from looking
sloppy, Goin says. You want
three things on that one plate,
barely touching, to make it not
look like a kids meal.
Equally important: No scraps
of food must sully a celebritys
Valentino or, worse, get wedged
between an award recipients teeth.
We did a lot of no-parsley, Goin
says of this years menu. We did a
beef tenderloin, thinly sliced, so it
can be eaten with just a fork.
For all the pressure she faces
during these events, Goin nds
that they do have a signicant
upside. Sometimes, she says,
we get to eat what we serve.

MILAN A young man is standing between
a bulls hind legsor, specically, the legs
of a bull mosaic on the oor of the Galle-
ria Viorio Emanuele II, a chic shopping
arcade in this Italian city. Its tradition
that if you spin around three times you
will have good luck, explains his female
companion. The mans spinning, though,
keeps geing interrupted by the crowd
making its way into a nearby caf, which
has ornate moldings, arched windows
and a golden M.
Milans McDonalds might be the
worlds most stylish fast-food joint
which still isnt stylish enough for this
city, apparently. The eatery is bowing out
to make way for a Prada store, and the
people jostling to get inside are here for
the closing-down burgers being handed
out. The guy standing on the mosaic,
hampered by the crowd, does not get to
complete his good-luck twirl. He also fails
to get a free Big Mac. The myth of the
bull, it appears, is true. JAMES WILLIAMS

STRANGE REQUESTS
An electro-pop band puts on an
unorthodox show for hotel guests
Jason Huber and Jordan Kelley have
developed a habit of singing in unlikely
places. The Nashville-
based electro-pop duo
known as Cherub has
performed on a Ferris
wheel, in hot tubs
and at a hair salon
in Guadalajara.
Accordingly, the
musicians seem
at ease with
their latest gig: a
two-day residency
at the W in
Times Square, during which theyll be
the hotels Human Jukebox.
Wearing neon-laced high-tops and
draped with gold chains, Huber and
Kelley take requests via Twierguests
tweet their location in the hotel and the
song they want playedthen show up
and start warbling. Tunes performed
include covers of songs by
Frankie Valli, Cyndi Lauper and
Outkast, as well as Cherub
originals. When asked
what they do when not
performing weird gigs, the
24-year-old Huber responds,
Whiskey, champagne and
shenanigans. Kelley, 25,
solemnly agrees.
Over the course of an
evening, theres hardly
a single spot in the
hotel that the Human Jukebox isnt
summoned to. There are performances
in the tness center and the lobby, and
even atop a luggage cart that ends up
being rolled out the front door and
through Times Square. The two musi-
cians remain unfazedalthough Huber
admits that he nds being asked to
perform in the elevator a lile creepy.
The following morning, the Human
Jukebox transforms into the Human
Alarm Clock, ready to deploy to guests
rooms to belt out wake-up songs in
bathrobes, slippers and argyle socks.
Just before the rst call of the day, the
duo admit they didnt get much sleep
the night before. Dear Body, Kelley
sings, closing his eyes and trembling
with feigned emotion. Sorry for last
night. I know what I did just wasnt
right. JAMES STURZ

THE BIG BONK FROM A DINGED CHEVY TO UNLUCKY REINDEER, A LOOK AT THE IMPACT OF SPACE ROCKS
At the time of this writing, an asteroid 150 feet across was
hurtling toward our planet, E.T.A. Feb. 15. Hopefully, it didnt
hit us. But there have been many instances of space objects
that did collide with Earth, most notably the asteroid blamed
for wiping out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, as well as
the 1972 meteorite that had a similar eect on a Venezuelan
cow. And while we may have the deepest sympathy for the
Milanese monk reputedly dispatched by a space rock in 1650,
we can also take comfort in the fact that human casualties
have been exceedingly rare. CHRIS WRIGHT

Khadouj, who believes she is at least
70 years old, can still touch her toes.
Right now shes bent double, elbow-
deep in a spray of purple crocuses.
Showing half a mouthful of teeth
in a sun-scorched, plumpish face
with impressive furrows, Khadouj
is smiling. Shes happy because the
annual safron harvest has begun,
providing much-needed employ-
ment for residents of Tnine de
lOurika, a crumbling Berber village
in one of the valleys of Moroccos
Atlas Mountains.
During the three-week harvest,
dozens of women from the com-
munity will reap 800,000 crocuses,
extracting about
6 kilograms of the
precious strands of safron,
a spice that can fetch up to $12
per gram. Khadouj and her work-
mates each earn about $4 per day.
Picking begins at daybreak, when
the petals are still closed; inside are
the lament-like structures called
stigmas that, when dried, are known
as safron. By 9 a.m. its over,
explains farm manager Moham-
med Mador, as he ambles through
gardens bursting with aromatic
plants beneath olive and citrus trees.
Once the ower opens, the stigmas
will be damaged by the sun.
The heaps of owers
are then taken aside
and, one by one,
the stigmas are
extracted, a task
seen as womens
workostensibly
because their hands are daintier.
It takes 40 women to harvest one
hectare of owers and extract the
three laments from each ower,
Mador says.
Back in the crocus patch, Khadouj
is upright, holding her back; when
asked if it aches, she shrugs. Her
rugged hands reect a lifetime
of dough-kneading and clothes-
scrubbing. Soon Khadouj is bent
over again, as she and the others get
on with the job in a gust of chatter
and song. OLIVIA GUNNING BENNANI

ROAD TRIP
CHASING
THE BLUES
Its 8 in the morning on a Friday in New
Orleans, and Im in a bind. In my hand
is a sloppy breakfast poboy quickly
greasing up a paper bag. At the curb is a
brand-new platinum-colored 2013 Lexus
GS 350 F Sport with eminently stainable
light-gray leather upholstery. These two
things do not go together. So, before hit-
ting the road, I hunt down a newspaper
and spread it all over the passenger
seat, then across my own lap. Poboys
can be highly unpredictable.
Taking a devilish Lexus GS 350
into the heart of the Delta
BY MICHAEL KAPLAN
MISSISSIPPI
p023-025_HEM0313_RoadTrip.indd 23 31/01/2013 09:36
Being awake this early in the
Crescent City is an objectionable state of
aairs, but Ive got a long drive ahead of
me, six hours north to Clarksdale, Miss.,
the town with the crossroads where blues
legend Robert Johnson supposedly sold
his soul to the devil in exchange for being
able to play guitar like a man possessed.
I wouldnt quite call it a hellhound,
but there is something faintly devilish
about the look of my car for the weekend,
particularly around the front end
no surprise the styling was inspired by
Lexus LFA supercar. A sleekly designed
four-door sedan, the GS 350 F Sport is
roomy enough for a family and aggres-
sive enough to tear up miles of blacktop.
Taking advantage of its link-in with the
music streaming service Pandora, I play
Delta blues all the way to Mississippi.
Three hours into my trip, I notice a sign
for Vicksburg. Something about it rings a
bell. I pull over and use the cars Enform
computer system to do a Bing search.
Sure enough, the town has been name-
checked in songs by Bob Dylan, Johnny
Cash, Tom Waits and Lucinda Williams.
Vicksburg it is.
I cruise through the pleasant town,
with its Civil War battlefield and rows
of beautiful old antebellum homes, and
happen upon a seafood and chop house
called Rustys Riverfront Grill. Its friendly
and unpretentious, with home-baked pies
cooling up front. I order a gargantuan
fried shrimp sandwich that I swear to
the waitress I wont be able to nish, but
do so anyway. Good luck, she says, as I
waddle out aerward.
In no time Im again motoring up High-
way 61, a road lined with verdant fields
punctuated with beaten-down shacks
and heaps of disused farm equipment.
Grain silos slide in and out of view. Zip-
ping past a picturesque lile post o ce
with a single mailbox in front, I suddenly
remember a postcard that needs to be sent.
Oversize brakes and the Lexus Dynamic
Handling System, which calculates opti-
mal wheel angles, help me execute a ashy
180-degree turn that would have done
Jason Bourne proud.
When I reach the turno for Indianola,
a town that teemed with blues perform-
ers back in the early 1900s, I take it and
follow the cars GPS guidance to the
B.B. King Museum. There, I take in multi-
media presentations on what life was
like on the Chitlin Circuit, check out a
re-creation of Kings recording studio,
and peruse the blues maestros guitars and
stage costumes. Its a ing tribute to a
man born into a coon-picking family who
rose to unimaginable heights.
As daylight wanes, I steer the Lexus into
the parking lot of Clarksdales Shack Up
Inn, an intentionally rustic, blues-themed
hotel where you can overnight in an origi-
nal sharecroppers shack or a repurposed
coon gin. My room is cozy and comfort-
able, but Ive got places to be.
I drop off my bag and get back into
the car, flipping on the near-infrared

pitch-black road. I make the short drive
to Ground Zero, a blues club bankrolled
by Morgan Freeman. Inside, a righteous-
sounding blues combo rips it up onstage.
Theyre good and the vibe is ne; frankly,
though, Im looking for something a bit
more down-home.
I ask around, and eventually wind
up at a joint called Reds Lounge. Its
stripped down, cramped and hot. Folks
sit on metal folding chairs, and a hat gets
passed around for donations. Onstage,
bathed in red and yellow light, is Robert
Bilbo Walker. With a de touch on his
baered guitars fretboard, he growls his
way through standards like Lucille and
originals that center on the usual blues
themes of love, murder and redemption.
Theres barely a moments pause between
numbers and Walker isnt one for stage
patter, but the people are deep into it
nonetheless. The night goes on like this
for some time.
Late the next morning, bleary-eyed
and back on the road, Im looking for the
spot where Johnson reputedly made his
fateful pact. Though I worried it might be
hard to nd, apparently soul-selling isnt
the discreet business one might expect:
Three giant guitars above a couple of
small trees mark the site of the original
crossroads. I park in the lot of Abes
Bar-B-Q and walk to the landmark,
waiting for something to overtake me,
for a deal to be proeredbut my soul
remains intact. So I do what anyone in
my position would do. I retreat to Abes
for a plate of devilishly good ribs.

MAMILLA HOTEL
BACKSTORY:
Opened in 2009,
this ve-star hotel
is at the heart of an
ambitious (if overdue)
scheme to redevelop
Mamilla, a 19th-century
neighborhood near
Jerusalems Old City
that was heavily dam-
aged during years of
Arab-Israeli ghting.
DESIGN NOTES:
The challenge in a
city like Jerusalem is to
embrace history without
geing bogged down in
it. The Mamilla expertly
manages this by marry-
ing the traditional (walls
of Jerusalem stone) with
modern design elements
(sleek black staircases,
glass-and-steel ceilings).
WHAT YOULL
FIND JUST
OUTSIDE: The trendy
shopping area Mamilla
Avenue is seconds away.
Walk a bit farther and
youll reach the Jaa
Gate and the Old City,
home to the Dome of the
Rock, the Western Wall
and a maze of ancient
alleys and bazaars.
IDEAL GUEST:
The Mamilla is
unquestionably a stylish
placeyou wont nd
any fanny-pack types
milling about the lobby.
Even the most well-
dressed guests, however,
cant resist nerding out
on the amazing history
thats practically on the
hotels doorstep.
BEST PLACE
TO HANG OUT:
Itd be tough to get a
beer view of Jerusalem
than the one from the
Mamillas roof. Part of
the space is a sundeck;
the rest is a restaurant
and bar whose vistas are
especially impressive at
night, when the walls of
the Old City are lit up.

BACKSTORY:
A candidate for
New Hamp-
shires state
symbol ever
since the Old Man
of the Mountain collapsed
in 2003, this Spanish Renaissance hotel
in the White Mountains has itself
irted with ruin in its 111-year history.
It was famously rescued from nancial
downfall in 1944, when it was given the
high-prole honor of hosting the confer-
ence that created the World Bank and
the International Monetary Fund.
DESIGN NOTES: Resembling a cross
between the White House and a hunting
lodge, the vaguely Federal-style lobby
is generously accented with yawning
replaces and cozy alpine motifs.
AMAZING AMENITY: The 25,000-square-
foot full-service spa allows guests to
select herbs from the grounds for farm-
to-facial treatments; the Mountain Mist
product line used here is derived from
candytu, nele and other local ora.
HOT PLATE: While chops of all kinds are
a claim to fame for steakhouse Stickneys,
the nearby Omni Breon Arms Inn
oers a rib-eye to climb mountains for.
SIGNATURE COCKTAIL: The Cave, set in
a former Prohibition-era speakeasy,
mixes a high-octane Prohibition Punch,
served in a dainty teacup and limited to
one per customer.

WHAT YOULL FIND JUST OUTSIDE: The resort is surrounded by
hundreds of acres of verdant, undeveloped land, ensuring unmarred
natural beauty everywhere you look.
IDEAL GUEST: Those seeking privacy with their luxury will appreciate
the fact that there are only 25 stand-alone suites and coages here.
Guests who enjoy the hospitality of an unpretentious, familial-seeming
sta will be even more delighted.
ROOM WITH A VIEW: Tucked into a hillside and boasting a private
plunge pool, the spacious and well-appointed bungalow Suite 31 looks
out on both bay and lagoon, giving you an unbeatable vantage from
which to watch yachts sail into the marina at sunset.
HOT PLATE: The menu changes daily according to whats most
abundant in the on-site organic garden and what helps achieve the
resorts goal of zero food miles. This means that while you were
daydreaming in your hillside villa, the cockles in tonights soup were
being shed out of the lagoon below.
UNEXPECTED TREAT: Mojitos and cool, almond-scented towels are
proered upon check-in, making quick work of any jet lag.

DRIVE DOWN THE BYWAYS of the Napa and Sonoma valleys
at the right time of year, and youll pass vines heavy with glis-
tening grapes just waiting to be turned into the big, tannic,
high-alcohol winesgenerally cabernets and zinfandelsthat
have made the region famous. These days, though, youre also
liable to spot a few vines that have been stripped of fruit early.
These point up a new movement afoot in Northern California
a burgeoning faction of vintners interested in making more
balanced vintages (read: less jammy, sun-ripened and strong).
One such producer is Jamie Kutch, a former Wall Street
trader who launched Kutch Wines. Though now hes a
purveyor of lighter, more finicky
pinot noirs, Kutchs early oerings
were big and rich in the classic
California style. There was only one
problem, he says: I didnt like them.
So when producing his 2007 releases, Kutch experimented
by picking an acre of his grapes earlier. He also watered
less, to push the grapes to develop flavor quickly without
becoming too sugary. Satisfied with the results from his
first acre, he picked everything earlier the next year and
has been proceeding in that manner ever since.

Spicing up wine spritzers for classic-cocktail fans
Wine spritzers suer from an image problem:
Though delicious, theyre associated with a
bit of a boring day wedding demographic.
In other words, youd never expect to see a
rock star downing a wine spritzer onstage.
In Napa Valley, though, where wine is para-
mount, mixologist Vincent Lee of Yountvilles
Lucy Restaurant & Bar
thought to update the
staple with grapefruit
juice and a dash of
sage liqueur, pushing
the humble spritzer
into spunky New
York Sour territory.
YOUNTVILLE
SPRITZ
Kutch and other advocates of balance
have also been pushing back against what
they argue is the overly intense oak avor
that oen turns up in California vintages.
To reduce it, Kutch ages 30 percent of his
early-picked grapes in new oak and the rest in
barrels that are three to ve years old. He also
ages the wines with grape stems to further
soen their taste proles.
Asked to describe what he likes about his
new, lighter, less oaky vintages, Kutch says
theyre cleaner and more precise. Theyre
probably also easier to sell. Well-structured
wines like these have been experiencing a
renaissance among restaurateurs and wine
buyers, who nd that they pair well with a
vast array of foods rather than just the tra-
ditional charbroiled slab of rib-eye. I think
of short ribs when I make my pinot noir,
says Kathleen Inman, whose Inman Family
Wines shares Kutchs philosophy. But with
the chardonnay, just for kicks I paired it with
tru e-buer popcornand that worked.
For me, wine enhances food. Im not one
for siing on the porch and sipping it, says
Chris Howell, who chose to plant the vines for
Cain Vineyard and Winery on a mountaintop
estate above Napa Valley to encourage more
balance in his wines. Good wine is not about
power or complexityits linked to the wines
nish and character. The wines that seduce
you are the ones that stick with you.

Winemakers diversify their
portfoliosby planting
vegetables
Napa Valley just
40 years ago was
a vastly diferent
landscape from
today. Acres of
orchards, elds
of produce and
thousands of oak trees
once competed for space
with vineyards. However,
following the regions rise
to fame on the heels of
1976s Judgment of Pariswhen
some Napa wines bested
their French counterparts in a
tastingmuch of this diversity
was wiped out in order to
produce as many award-winning
wines as possible.
But in the past 10
years, the tide has
begun to turn.
Progressive
winemakers have
started diversify-
ing their crops.
After having
soil trouble, John
Williams, owner of
Frogs Leap, a winery in
the Rutherford district,
stopped using chemicals
and irrigation, planted
acres of fruit and vegetables
adjacent to the vines, and
allowed cover crops to
THE BEST
OF THE WEST
At an eatery with a Napa-only
wine list, California is king
BY JOHN CAPONE
Youd think that placing a Napa Valley only
limit on a restaurant wine list would consti-
tute an unwelcome constraint in the eyes of
sommeliers, but Kelli White and Sco Brenner
of Press in St. Helena, Calif., have accepted the
challenge with enthusiasm. Aer moving to
Napa from New York in 2010 to launch Press
wine program, the two have assembled the
largest collection of Napa bottles in wine
country, with vintages going back to the 1940s.
We both had tasted older California wine on
the East Coast, but the quality out here, where
the wines had moved less than a few miles
in their existence, was so much beer, says
White. Inspired, they set about snapping up
cellar collections as they became available and
urging wineries to part with older artifacts.
The mission led to some exciting discover-
ies: ve decades of cabernet from the same
winery, for instance, and a few boles of Cali-
fornia grignolino (a tannic red rarely found
outside Italys Piedmont region). The project
kept getting more and more compelling
brands wed never heard of, bizarre varieties
that were here before cabernet and chardon-
nay mania wiped them all out, White says.
Last year Press unveiled its new 10,000-
bottle cellar, accessible via an iPad wine
list, and with it the true scope of White and
Brenners work. The collection represents the
region in a way few restaurant wine lists can;
enjoying it, with the help of the two curators,
is like tasting a museum exhibit. And the hunt
is far from over. Were still being surprised
by the weird things we uncover, White says.

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA is justiably famous for its wines, but its
temperate climate and rich soil are notable for producing another
Mediterranean staple: olive oil. Like West Coast wines, these oils
have unique characteristics. The best stuf tends to capture the
fresh fruit avor of the olive, says Paul Vossen, a UC Coopera-
tive Extension adviser. This may stem from the fact that California
producers usually make their oil with stainless steel equipment
instead of wood, which is favored in Greece, Spain and Italy.

proliferate. The vintners at Raymond
Vineyards, Boisset Family Estates,
Trefethen Family Vineyards and
Cakebread Cellars were already mak-
ing similar changes. And before long,
all-purpose farm-wineries like Long
Meadow Ranchwhich raises cows
and chickens in addition to growing
olives, grapes and vegetables
began to pop up.
Best of all, much of the resulting
produce has ended up in stores and
on restaurant tables, a boon for a
regional dining scene thats long
leaned toward locavorism. Frogs
Leap, for instance, takes produce

CHENGDU:
CHlNA'S
FUTURE
NEW
*/,5.+<!
*/05(:5,>-<;<9,
2012 was a big transition year for China, as the world's second largest economy managed a smooth leadership
handover and began charting a course forward for the next decade. Buttressed by changing currents in the
global economy, and structural adjustment from within, observers have been watching closely for the future
direction of this huge and populous economy.
For FORTUNE MAGAZlNE, the directions of
China's future points westwards to Chengdu, the
capital city of Sichuan province, and a metropolis
of more than 14 million people that is emerging as a
dynamic engine of growth, and the cornerstone of
economic activity in China's sprawling west.
Long favored by China's Go West" campaign,
Chengdu has been the focus of central government
investment meant to unlock the economic potential
of less developed in land areas . Major investment
in transportation, telecommunications, specialized
development zones, and other infrastructure laid
the foundation for the vibrant cityscape that we can
see today, but was only just a beginning.
ln recent years Chengdu has focused on cutting
red tape, streamlining government, and making
business easier to do. The number of agencies
responsible for permit approvals has been
consolidated to 48, down from over triple that
number 10 years ago. The results speak for
themselves, with FDl pouring into the city, and
growth far surpassing the maturing economies of
the coastal cities. ln the frst three quarters of 2012,
Chengdu achieved GDP growth of over 13%, while
the country as a whole began to downshift to an
average of 8%.
With a young and highly educated population, Chengdu has transformed itself
into a center of fnancial and commercial activity. Drawing workers from the 90
million inhabitants of Sichuan province and beyond, Chengdu presents itself as an
affordable, comfortable, dynamic alternative to the far-off coastal cities. The result
is a happy, productive, and affordable pool of skilled labor.
Chengdu's economic story is about more than just geography and demographics.
Local offcials have targeted strategic industries that will ft China's transition to a
more consumer-based economy. Software, automobiles, advanced manufacturing,
and service outsourcing each have their own development zones with a full range
of government services and support. At the same time, the cityscape is changing
to meet the needs of an expanding city center, with 12 subway lines under
construction, many due to be complete by 2013.
The business world is standing up to take notice. 229 of the FORTUNE 500
companies now have operations in Chengdu, positioning themselves to beneft
from the booming economy. FDl has also continued to fow into the city even
as it decreases on a national scale. ln the frst three quarters of 2012 FDl to
Chengdu increased 14%, while decreasing nationally over the same period by
3.8%.
For these reasons and more, FORTUNE has chosen Chengdu as the site of
the 2013 FORTUNE Global Forum. Planned for June 6-8, 2013, the Forum will
examine the spirit and theme of Chengdu's emergence as it explores the theme
of China's New Future". Chengdu Mayor Mr. Ge Honglin is looking forward to
hosting the Forum, where he says the participants will see frsthand the fruits of
development in China's west, and will glimpse the future of China's economic and
urban development.

Chicagos Field Museum shows visitors the light
If the ferocious success of the movie Avatar proved anything, its that you can never overestimate the allure of
glowing wildlife. In the non-CGI world, glow worms and reies have a similar appeal. The Field Museum
in Chicago taps into our love of self-illuminating criers with Creatures of Light: Natures Bioluminescence,
an exhibit that showcases scorpions, mushrooms, dinoagellates and more. It also features a re-creation
of New Zealands glow wormlled Waitomo cave system, an interactive model of Puerto Ricos bioluminescent
Mosquito Bay and the ethereal rey photographs of Tsuneaki Hiramatsu (like the one above), all of which
are sure to put visitors in mind of a lazy summer eveningon a faraway planet. march 7

An extraordinary audio
document of a turbulent time
Howard Smith talked to every-
one. During the 60s and 70s,
the Oscar-winning director,
writer and broadcaster used his
national radio show to explore
cultural upheaval, siing down
with the likes of John Lennon
and Yoko Ono (above), Janis
Joplin and Norman Mailer; and
catching Dennis Hopper right
aer Easy Rider premiered at
Cannes, Pete Townshend aer
The Who played the Met, and
Andy Warhol subsequent to
his shooting.
Decades later, a crate of
tapes from the show was
discovered in Smiths Manhat-
tan lo, and, following a
Kickstarter campaign, they
have been restored, edited
and issued in the form of a
mammoth, rolling 100-part
digital release on Amazon and
iTunes (theres a 12-disc CD box
set, too). This month brings the
latest in the series,
focused on the
breathtakingly ill-
fated Rolling Stones
concert at Altamont
and featuring

DONT BE SURPRISED if sometime in the future we get a

releasing his first album in a decade this monthending
speculation that the singer, now 66, has gone pipe-and-slippers
on usbut Londons Victoria and Albert Museum is also unveil-
ing a huge retrospective of his career.
The curators of David Bowie Is pored over some 75,000
archival bits and bobs, accumulated by Bowie during half a
century of manic creativity, to arrive at the 300-plus objects
meant to reveal what the Is is. These range from Bowies
Stardust-era psychedelic jumpsuit to the artists own diary
entries (Friday: Revolutionize popular culture).
For co-curator Victoria Broackes, its the impromptu
stu that brings the show to life. Its extraordinary, she
says of Bowies handwrien lyrics, seeing the crossings-
out and line changes, how a song thats become part
of our lives soundtrack could have been so dierent.
Broackes describes Bowie as the dream subject for the V&A. I cannot
think of anyonenot just in pop, but in any eldwho has the breadth of
inspiration, output and reach that he has, she says. He worked on so many
things, oen at once. It really is astonishing. MARCH 23

WITH ITS FLEA-BITTEN COUCHES,
rising damp and dubious air qual-
ity, the Van Nuys, Calif., recording
studio Sound City wasnt the
kind of place youd immediately
associate with artistic inspira-
tioneven for artists comfortable being identied with the word grunge.
We got there and walked down the hallways and saw all those platinum records,
says Dave Grohl, former drummer for Nirvana, recalling the bands arrival at the
squalid studio in 1991 to record Nevermind. It was kind of surprising.
Despite the studios acoustically imperfect rooms and decades-old Neve analog
mixing console, Nevermind went on to become, well, Nevermind. And with its success,
another smash record was added to Sound Citys rsum, which included albums by
everyone from Fleetwood Mac to Metallica.
Eventually, bugs and cigaree burns became the least of Sound Citys worries. Ever
since the advent of digital technology, the tape-based recording employed by the
studio had been inching toward oblivion. And when Sound City closed in 2011, the fate
of its legendary Neve console was uncertain.
So Grohl bought it. His decision to assume ownership of this gigantic technologi-
cal throwback was not entirely sentimental:
The Foo Fighters frontman is convinced the
board can continue to produce hits, and to
this end he installed it in his own studio, just
outside Los Angeles.
Grohls eorts to acquire the board,
meanwhile, led to his making a documentary
about the history of the famous studio, the
recently released Sound City. It was followed
by an all-star album, Sound City: Real to Reel,
recorded by some of the musicians featured
in the lm, including Paul McCartney, Stevie
Nicks and Trent Reznor.
I didnt think there was a director inside
me, Grohl says. But making the lm was a
pleasure and, honestly, I thought it was easy.
He goes on to admit that he did receive a
lile help along the way. The person most
responsible for the arc of the story was my
mother, who was a creative-writing teacher,
he says. She said, Dont give it away that you
have the board. Tell the history of the studio
then it closes, then you get the board and
then you make the record. I was like, Huh.
Thanks, Mom. ALBUM OUT MARCH 12
Keeping It Real
Dave Grohl shares
his thoughts on
low-tech wonders
On Trent Reznor: Hes a brilliant,
brilliant musician who doesnt need
technology. To see him sit down at
a piano and play a piece of classical
music is jaw-dropping, because he has
incredible feel and time and a wonder-
ful sense of tonality and composition.
On Muse: That band could come into
a studio with a board and a room like
Sound Citys and make an album so
powerful it would change the world.
I dont think Muse have to rely on
anything but their own hands and their
own hearts to make great music.
On being Wii-less: You know, the
pingpong table at my own studio might
be as old as the Neve console from
Sound City. Ive got to say, Im pretty
old-school when it comes to pingpong.

Making a diference. Thats what every
good team captain wants. To motivate
and encourage their players and to
ensure that the results they achieve are
remembered and make a diference in
their life and the lives of others.
Right at Home is a respected interna-
tional care company based in the US
with almost 300 of ces on 4 conti-
nents. It was Right at Homes mission
to improve lives and the vast business
opportunities available, that convinced
Ken Deary to not only join the Right at
Home team, but also become the team
captain for Right at Home UK.
Having been a successful franchisee
for McDonalds I learned a lot about
franchise systems, training and support.
I knew that franchising was the best way
to expand a business and I wanted to
be a part of that, says Deary. And this
time, I wanted to lead my own national
team of franchisees.
Having seen rst hand with his own
family the need for quality in-home care
and the lack of good options in his com-
munity, Ken recognized immediately
the opportunity that Right at Home
could give him. Statistics show that the
segment of people over the age of 85
is expected to quadruple by the year
2050. The need for quality in-home
senior care has never been needed
more than it is now.
Right at Home franchisees provide
in-home services such as meal prepa-
ration, companionship and medication
reminders for people needing assistance
with everyday tasks, enabling them to
remain in the place they are most com-
fortableright in their own home.
When I came across Right at Home,
I immediately knew that I had found a
winning team. They care about their
franchisees, the staf and caregivers and
the clients they serve. They are genuine.
I loved that. I loved the people and what
they stood for. I became an instant fan!
proclaims Ken.
Ken Deary became the Master License
holder (franchisor) for the UK in Janu-
ary 2010. He opened his own pilot unit
in April 2010 and has since sold and
opened 13 franchises and is aiming for
20 by year end. Hes put together a win-
ning strategy, surrounded himself with
star players and has focused on scoring
the ultimate goalmaking a diference
in his life and the lives of people in the
community.
When I made the decision to join the
Right at Home team I didnt take it
lightly, professes Deary. I did a lot of
research into the home care industry
and found that not only is good in-home
care needed now, it is going to be needed
even more over the coming decades. This
is a high growth area that will provide
security for Right at Homes franchisees
and a wonderful caring service for the
clients who need us.
Right at Home has franchises in the US,
Brazil, Canada, China and the UK and are
looking to expand at home and abroad.
Whether you want to captain your own
team internationally or would like to join
one of our winning teams in the US,
Brazil, Canada, China or the UK, Right
at Home is looking for compassionate,
focused and dedicated players who
want to make a diference.
In football and
in life, we all have
the same goal
to be part of a
winning team.
IN 2050 THERE WILL BE
2 BILLION PEOPLE OVER THE
AGE OF 60 ON THE PLANET
(compared with 700 million in 2010).
People aged 85 and over are the
most rapidly growing age group
worldwide.
1
The worlds 65 and over population
increases by an average of 800,000
people each month.
2
The number of people living with
dementia is estimated to double to
66 million by 2030.

While legwear has acquired some astonishing hues
in recent seasons, color seems to have drained out of
the accompanying shoes. Among the most exciting
styles weve seen, for instance, are strappy white
heels featuring mesh panels, cut-out bits or sparkly
holographic elements. On
the spring runways, many
of these were paired with
raucous oral skirts or

Women have too many shoes is an understandable sentimentif and only if your

Its the same old story every time you travel for work but never actually
see anything. So next time youre in town, make the most out of your journey
with a Bizcation add a day or two to your business trip and see what the
Bay Area really has to ofer.
You could start by going north on Highway 101, which
takes you over the Golden Gate Bridge. Its a treat of
a drive if youve got a sunroof or a convertible, glance
up at its mighty spars to fully appreciate what a feat of
engineering the bridge is. Meanwhile, sailboats some
220 feet below you tack back and forth on winds fresh
of the Pacic Ocean to the west. Then the road quickly
takes you into the high, green country just above the
bay. But theres no point in rushing, so pit-stop in San
Franciscos own Riviera of Sausalito. Drive down past
charming houses nestled on the hill, and at the waters
edge youll nd colorful houseboats and the catch of
the day in any of the restaurants.
Back on the road, youre only about an hour from
Napa Valley. The area is just 35 miles long, so you
can reach everything from whichever of the 150 or
so accommodations you choose. From Calistoga in
the north to American Canyon in the south, there are
eight distinctive communities ofering you some of
Californias best food, natural spas and, of course,
wineries. Theres a strong culture of farm-to-table
cuisine that has attracted top chefs like Cindy Pawlcyn,
the genius behind local favorite Cindys Backstreet
Kitchen in St. Helena. On the way back, shop for
antiques or picnic on the grounds of a winery. If youre
in an SUV, youll certainly enjoy the extra room after
all the food not to mention the space to carry home
a few souvenirs.
To the east of San Francisco lie gems like Lake Tahoe
and Yosemite National Park. Beautiful Carmel and the
outstanding Monterey Bay Aquarium are south on
world-famous Highway 1. But if you cant do it all this
time, dont worry. Theres always another business trip
crying out to become your next Bizcation.

THE MERE FACT THAT Im wearing a kilt and white kneesocks
isnt whats making todays round at The Westin Kierland
Resort feel a bit unusual. Its that Im dressed in a kilt and
Im about to ride out to my rst tee shot on a Segway like
some kind of Scoish charioteer.
Having hit my opening drive, I mount the scooter and lean
forward. The manicured grass beneath me ies past in a green
blur as I teeter, trying to maintain both balance and dignity.
Following a successful (if inelegant) dismount, I grab a 5-wood
and hit just short of the rst puing surface into a sloping,
tightly mown collection area. From here I get up and down,
thanks to a beautiful rolling pitch shot.
Id bow, but given my outt, it might be safer if I curtsied.
Golfers whove been to Scotland more than once know
that the most satisfying golf experiences are oen found
away from the trophy courses. So it is here in Scottsdale,
Ariz., wherebeyond bucket-list venues like Champions and
Stadium at TPC, We-Ko-Pa and Grayhawkyoull discover a
wealth of lesser-known spots oering unusual new programs,
unexpected quality, smaller crowds and lower green fees.
Kierlands Scoish-themed package, for instance, includes a
loan of formal Scoish aire and a bagpiper calling you in
at the 18th green to sip Johnnie Walker at the Caledonian-
inuenced gastropub Brilebush.
Kierlands three nine-hole golf loops, designed by Sco
Miller, feature golden desert grasses, elevation changes, dry
washes and more than 300 bunkers of every shape and size
lled with gleaming white sand. Ribbons of sandy waste areas
and dun-colored dormant grasses frame many holes and
accentuate the targets. Gently rolling mounds

may reward slightly errant shots
or create sidehill lies that will challenge
your iron game. They will also challenge
your Segway skills (though you can opt
for a cart with an air-cooled mister, which
comes in handy when the mercury soars
into triple digits).
While the name of ve-diamond resort
The Phoenician suggests a leap back in
history, the property is in fact a paean to
modern luxury. One morning I roamed
the cactus garden across from the lobby,
admiring barrel cacti, smooth-barked palo
verde trees and other local ora while sip-
ping my coee. In the evening, we sat by
a re pit and watched the sky turn purple
and the stars pop out above Camelback
Mountain, just behind the sprawling
wings of the hotel.
The Phoenician proves that a course
doesnt have to be long and di cult to be,
well, di cult. These 27 holes are all about
subtletyand theyre also about Camel-
back Mountain, which the golf course
meanders around and sometimes nearly
over and back down. Camelback quietly
influences not just putts, but also club
selection, stance and maybe even your
mood. At times during my round, I lost
track of the mountain, focusing instead
on the task at hand (i.e., geing the golf
ball to land somewhere near the pin). But
then Id leave a 3-foot pu a foot short on
a seemingly at green, look up to see the
mountain lurking and realize that the
green was practically straight uphill.
The Desert/Canyon routing commences
amid a tranquil setting of flower beds,
palms and mesquite, winds past resort
facilities and stately Spanish-style houses,
then transitions into a wilder terrain
of rock and brush. As we were deciding
what club to hit for our tee shots on the
Deserts par-3 sixth, which drops 100 feet to
a glimmering island of green, some hikers
stopped to watchand we suddenly real-
ized that laughter, particularly the derisive
kind, echoes here (in other words: choose
carefully). The Canyon has even more
elevation changes and, at the seventh and
eighth holes, back-to-back par-3s decorated
with streams, gardens and waterfalls.
Fountain Hills SunRidge Canyon Golf
Club is home to the Jim McLean Golf
School, which is convenient, as youll
need an improved short game to master
18 holes that blend into the land as if they
were carved by the movement of water
and wind over millennia. Architect Keith
Foster sited the holes in red rock canyons
and atop boulder-strewn ridgescreating
distinctly dierent canvases of gorgeously
rendered golf features.
The opening salvo descends gradually
before doubling back to climb on the way
in. Dont forget this, as youll want to make
your pars and birdies early. Ravine cross-
ings are oen required, but always present
themselves clearly (so youll have only
yourself to blame if you du it, as when
I landed in a dry arroyo aer stubbing a
3-wood on the 12th). No. 13 kicks off the

water, steep drops around elevated greens,
and other features that are maddening
and entertaining by turns.
The Native Americanowned Talking
Stick Resort boasts two golf layouts
designed by Coore & Crenshaw. I ventured
out on the North Course, which opens with
a couple of wide, welcoming fairways that
seem impossible to miss o the tee (note:
seem) before narrowing toward the rst
few greens. The laer reside awfully close
to rough desert scrub, where we actually
saw a herd of wild horses grazing. By the
third hole, bunker pods and waste areas
grow increasingly prevalent and closer to
the elds of play.
No. 12 proved to be one of my favorites:
a 392-yard dogleg called Red Mountain
Gambler. Golfers choosing to take a chance
must carry 204 yards of sandy waste area
with their drives. Less adventuresome
players can bail out to the rightor, like
me, opt to carry the sand but hit it to
the right anyway, by accident, leaving a
long approach that must carry an arroyo
in front of the green. And the greens
themselves (newly rebuilt, lovely to look
at, completely unforgiving) have a way of
trampolining good shots to the back of, or
clean over, the puing surfaces.
Six thousand Georgia pines distinguish
Raven Golf Clubformerly known as The
Raven at South Mountainfrom the area
golf courses that accentuate their Sonoran
cred. In addition to the new name, the
Phoenix facility spotlights a new trend
in golf: a set of family tees shrunk down
to 4,100 yards.
Gary Panks and Davi d Graham,
designers known for their desert golf
architecture, let the cacti and ralesnakes
remain in the background on a lush,
expansive layout. Subtleties abound, such
as the sloped embankments lining the rst
hole that work to guide slightly mis-hit
shots back to the fairway. Also at work is
a design that requires strategy to ensure
the best leaves, as in billiards. Angles of
aack maer here, so procient players
will want to think a shot or two ahead.
No. 5 is the signature holea super-short
par-4 where wise golfers will hit an iron to
the le o the tee and then avoid both the
false front before the green and the deep
retention area behind it (wiser golfers than
I, who experienced both). The back nine
plays a few shots easier than the front.
Stadium-size puing surfaces may aect
the yardages on many holes, so check pin
positions before ring.
When youve nished with golf, refuel at
any number of great clubhouse and resort
restaurants close by the courses, such as
Relish Burger Bistro at The Phoenician
(I recommend the Kobe beef burger in par-
ticular) and Deseo at The Westin Kierland,
whose spicy Nuevo Latino cuisine is the
perfect counterpoint to a breeze blowing
up your kilt.

REBUILDING ROME IN TWO
AND A HALF YEARS
There are few reminders of the Roman Empires gran-
deur more arresting than the Colosseum, still standing
aer nearly 2,000 years. In order to remain standing for
the next 2,000, however, the building needs some help.
Researchers from Sapienza University of Rome have con-
rmed that the south side of the foundationwhich rests
on the soer ground that was once beneath an articial
lake created for the emperor Nerois sagging. To even
out the foundation, check for cracks, clean the stonework
and make repairs, all while keeping the building open to
tourists, Italys Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activi-
ties is undertaking the rst-ever Colosseum restoration
project. Scheduled to wrap in 2015, its priced at roughly
$33 million and is largely nanced by Italian shoemaker
Tods. Heres how theyll do it. BY JACQUELINE DETWILER

Scafolds positioned in front of the rst four
arcades will allow workers to clean and repair the
buildings exterior while maintaining areas for
tourists. The temporary metal stays used to protect
the Colosseums arches will be removed, and the
arches will be shored up more permanently.
2

A major aim is to increase the public space by
25 percent. Workers will accomplish this in part by
building a visitors center with a caf, a bookshop
and a display of artifacts discovered during the
renovation (including an 18th-century model of the
Colosseum complete with secret passageways).
3

Throughout the project, scientists from
Sapienza University will monitor the building using
high-sensitivity accelerometers that can record
accelerations as small as 1/10,000th the force
of gravity. This will help of cials prevent further
damage to the masonry from traf c, subways,
tourists, wind and earthquakes.

INTEL, YOU CAN
DRIVE MY CAR
FULLY AUTOMATED VEHICLES PROMISE TO REDUCE ACCIDENTS
AND SAVE DRIVERS TIME AND MONEY, BUT THEIR LONG-AWAITED
ARRIVAL MAY NOT BE GOOD NEWS FOR ALL
BY BOYD FARROW
Three decades ago, driverless cars were
everywhere. Among the most popular novels
(and films) of 1983 was Stephen Kings
Christine, about a malevolent Plymouth on
a hit-and-run spree. One of the best-loved
TV shows was Knight Rider, in which a big-
haired David Hasselho teamed up with an
opinionated Trans Am to ght crime.
Then, poof: Self-driven cars went the way
of the jet pack and the robot maidan
absorbing ction, but lile more.
Now, however, the fantasy seems about
to be realized. Its really happening. All car
companies are investing lots of money in
this, says John Leech, U.K. head of auto-
motive for accounting giant KPMG. The
technology is here nowautomatic brak-
ing, cruise control and lane centering are
available. The next stage is getting total
mobile Internet connectivity to join up
all the sensors. We are on a gradual jour-
ney to fully automatic driving.
p059-061_HEM0313_Industry.indd 59 31/01/2013 09:54
BRIGHT IDEAS || INDUSTRY
Several tests have already been
conducted on public roads with cars
whose manual brakes and steering wheels
were replaced with sensors and soware
enabling vehicle-to-vehicle communica-
tion. Volvo recently had four self-driving
cars platooning at 53 mph along a 124-mile
route near Barcelona. Engineers from
German automotive supplier Continental
have racked up 10,000-plus miles test-
driving automated Volkswagen Passats
in the U.S. and Germany. Last fall the
state of California enacted legislation that
paves the way for test-drives in tra c by
Googles computerized Toyota Priuses,
which have been in trials in Nevada for
almost a year.
A recent study by KPMG, in col-
laboration with the nonprofit Center
for Automotive Research, suggests that
the first cars capable of communicat-
ing with tra c infrastructure and with
each other could come onto the market
within ve to 10 years. Indeed, the studys
authors speculated that there will be so
many autonomous vehicles on the road
by 2025, people stopped at tra c lights
wont do a double-take if a car pulls up
and its driver is shaving.
Like many watershed technologi-
cal developments, this one is arriving
in increments. For years, automakers
have been engaged in a erce competi-
tion to oer increasingly sophisticated
driver-assist features. The 2014 Mercedes
S-Class, due to launch this year, boasts
26 separate sensors that can monitor
tra c up to 656 feet ahead, recognize lane
markings and use the vehicle in front as
a positioning beacon when no lane mark-
ings are visible.
Its not only the car companies that
have a stake in this technology. The motor
club federation AAA has estimated the
annual cost of U.S. road accidents at
about $300 billion. Traffic congestion,
meanwhile, robs Americans of nearly
5 billion hours a year and costs about
$100 billion in lost productivity and
fuel expenses. Self-driving cars could
put a significant dent in these figures,
with the added benefit of increased
fuel e ciency.
It is the nature of revolutions, though,
for fortunes to be raised and lowered
in equal number. Certainly, when this
technology takes onobody is saying
if anymorethe automotive industry
will enter a period of transformation.
Tech rms appear set to emerge as the
big winners, as their input will no longer
be conned to providing extras; rather,
theyll be shaping the fundamentals of
the driving experience. Intel, Google and
others are already sinking billions into
research and development, threatening
to diminish the role that traditional
carmakers play in devising the vehicles
of tomorrow.
Indeed, in one scenario envisioned by
KPMG, major players in the data market
could design a vehicle operating system

f youre looking for a detailed rundown on that meeting
you missed, youd probably do best to ask the quiet
girl who sits in the corner. According to a study by Dutch
scientist Camiel Beukeboom published in The Journal of
Language and Social Psychology, an introvert is far more
likely than an extrovert to use specic descriptive language.
In the experiment, subjects described a set of photos, then
returned days later to take a personality test. It turned out that
among extroverts, abstract speech patterns (The boss was being mean) were far
more common than concrete ones (The boss argued with the sales team). The
reverse was true for introverts, who also used more numbers, articles (such as
the) and references to specic people. Thats not to say the news is all bad
for boisterous types: Researchers believe extroverts may be better at interpret-
ing actions to draw inferences about people and situations. Anyway, happy
hour is, uh, down the street. Hope you can make it. JACQUELINE DETWILER

and simply outsource the production of
the actual vehicle to an external partner
possibly someone other than a tra-
ditional automotive manufacturer. As
Larry Burns, co-author of Reinventing the
Automobile, said in a presentation to the
National Automobile Dealers Association
in New York last year, Incumbent players
rarely do well when industries disrupt.
There will be a knock-on effect for
other players, too. Steelmakers, faced
with the prospect of safer and therefore
less fortied vehicles, are likely viewing
developments with concern. And nobody
has yet been able to fathom what all
this will mean for insurance companies.
Whos at fault when two fully automated
cars collide?
For the likes of you and me, auto-
mated vehicles promise to save time
and money and to improve our personal
safety. Moreover, who wouldnt relish
the opportunity for a nice snooze during
those interminable trips to the in-laws
place at Thanksgiving? But Leech, for
all his conviction, doesnt foresee the
demise of the steering wheel and brake
pedal just yet.
For some, the whole point of driving
is the actual driving, he says. People will
carry on buying Ferraris.
BOYD FARROW is dreading the day when
someone comes up with the automated
magazine columnist.

On a summer night in 2007, in the southeast corner of the Netherlands,
Hanny van Arkel discovered a never-before-seen space object: a gas cloud
wrapped around a former galaxy 730 million light-years from Earth. Van
Arkel spoed the glowing green blob now known as Hannys Voorwerp
(Dutch for object) while classifying galaxies in one of millions of photos
taken during an exhaustive space-mapping eort called the Sloan Digital
Sky Survey. Van Arkel, it turns out, is not a professional astronomer but
a 29-year-old schoolteacher and amateur musician. She started scanning
the skies as a hobby aer seeing some cool space photos on the
ROLL OVER, GALILEO

website of her musical idol, Brian
May, guitarist in the rock band Queen.
Intrigued, she sought out the photos
source, a site called Galaxy Zoo. Soon aer-
ward, having sat through a quick tutorial,
she set to work.
Unable to process the volume of images
theyd amassed, Galaxy Zoos astronomers
had decided to recruit members of the
public to help out. Van Arkel was just one
of 150,000 people who contributed to the
project in its rst year, generating more
than 50 million classications. The project
has since received countless millions more,
allowing scientists to beer explore such
topics as bars and bulges in disc galaxies
and the sudden deaths of quasars.
Astronomers are not the only experts
willing to let amateurs get involved in
their work. So-called citizen scientists
are now being recruited to assist with
everything from archaeology to cancer
research. Anyone can participate in
these projects: Joining generally requires
only an Internet connection, a decent
attention span and a lot of spare time.
True, the trend may threaten to knock
scientists out of their ivory towersbut
few are inclined to complain about hav-
ing access to what is, in eect, a million
unpaid research assistants.
There have, in fact, been previous
large-scale eorts to apply the resources
of ordinary people to scientic research.
Back in 1999, SETI@home sought to fur-
ther the search for extraterrestrial life
by harnessing unused processing power
from thousands of individuals PCs to
create a virtual supercomputer. The
project ultimately failed to turn up any aliens, but it was nonetheless
hailed as a mighty success.
The citizen science model takes inspiration from the SETI@home
project, only in this instance the excess processing power comes
from a far more sophisticated machine: the human brain. And while
the idea itself is nothing newelds like public health and conser-
vation have been soliciting input from laypersons for decades
citizen science builds on the very contemporary phenomenon of
crowdsourcing, which has systematically decentralized research
and development in ways that would have been unimaginable a
few years ago.
So it is, across the world, that we have aorneys mapping bird
migration, bus drivers decoding whale songs and schoolteachers
discovering far-o gas clouds. Some projects even require partici-
pants to go out into the eld. Earthwatch Institute, one of the earliest
proponents of citizen
science, invites amateur
researchers to get their
boots muddy in far-ung
places like Malawi and
Ecuador, for instance.
Meanwhile, an off-
shoot dubbed extreme
citizen science aims to
help disenfranchised
communi ties create
their own projects, and
i n doi ng so explore
topics that are near
and dear to them. In
one recent example, an
anthropologist at Uni-
versity College London helped (by way of GPS and other modern
doodads) a Pygmy community in Congo identify and protect its most
valued trees, which were being threatened by the chain saws of a
logging conglomerate.
While the benets to researchers are obvious, many believe that
the rise of citizen science will have profound eects on not only the
eld of scientic discovery, but also the culture at large. If nothing
else, the shroud of mystery that has always obscured scholarly exper-
tise is being stripped away, replaced by something more collaborative,
more accessible, even more fun. Jennifer Shirk, a Ph.D. candidate at
Cornell University who studies citizen science, is fascinated by the
potential. What might we be able to accomplish, she says, if we
start thinking about science in those terms?
Hanny van Arkel now has her own website, on which she shares
her musings on a wide range of topics, including what she calls my
object in the sky. Shes available to do lectures for experts or novices,
she explains, and she also has quite a lot to say on the subject of Brian
May. Her voorwerp, meanwhile, is being scrutinized by scientists, who
would love to nd other objects like itand who would welcome
any help they can get.
HILLARY ROSNER, a Colorado-based writer, doesnt have the patience to
discover a heavenly body thats much harder to spot than the moon.

LIKE A LOT OF CELEBRITIES, Matt Damon has
his pet causes. In contrast to many of his peers,
though, he actually digs in and does the work.
And in Damons world, there is nothing more
important than clean water. As co-founder of
Water.org, which helps poor communities build
their own water supply systems, hes determined
to see that fresh water is available to the mil-
lions who dont have it. That sounds far-fetched
in a Hollywood-movie sort of way, but Water.org
is intent on harnessing market forces to make wholesale gains,
rather than just drilling a few more wells.
Of course, in his spare time Damon continues to tend to his
career as one of Hollywoods most bankable stars. I met him at
the Waldorf Astoria in Manhaan late last year, when he was in
town doing press for Promised Land, the Gus Van Sant indie he
wrote with John Krasinski (The O ce) about one communitys
struggles over leing a big energy company set up a fracking opera-
tion. (Damons prowess as an author is proven; recall that his sole
Oscar is for co-writing Good Will Hunting.) And he was fresh o
receiving a career achievement award at the Gotham Independent
Film Awards in New York Citya notable accomplishment, given
that hes only 42.
With his hair cropped short for a role as a soldier in the futuristic
Elysium (due out in August), and wearing a pair of glasses that
could have been right o the drugstore rack, Damon looked like a
mighty regular guy when we met. Over a couple of boles of water,
we talked about, well, water, then Promised Land, balancing career
and family, and, nally, temporary baldness. Among folks who cover
the famous, Damon is considered the gold standard: smart, funny,
nice, always plays ball. This interview was no exception.

DAMON: The enormity of it. Water
underpins everything. My personal
connection started when I went on a
water collection with a 14-year-old girl
in Zambia, and she grabbed her jerrican
and we walked a mile to the well. It was
a long walk, and we talked about all the
things she could be doing if she didnt
have to walk so far to get water.
HEMISPHERES: Which one of you carried
the can back?
DAMON: She did, like it was nothing.
I was in Ethiopia a couple of years ago,
and there was an 8-year-old girl who
lied one of these cans and started
walking up a hill. I said, Give me that
thing, took it and tried to walk up.
I was in shapeI was doing Invictus,
which was a rugby movieand it was
hard. That kid weighed a third of what
I weighed. It was amazing what she
went through to get water.
HEMISPHERES: But water has a bit of
a marketing problem. Because its so
abundant here, people cant imagine how
big a deal it is in sub-Saharan Africa. In
terms of global issues, AIDS actually has
more traction in the public consciousness.
DAMON: Yeah, because everybody
knows, or has known, somebody
with AIDS. My wifes father died of it.
It touches people in a very personal
way. The rst hurdle we have to clear
is trying to explain to the public that
there are 780million people who
dont have access to clean and safe
water, that every 21 seconds a kid
under the age of 5 dies from a water-
related disease. It just doesnt make
sense to people. Theres clean water
in this room; theres clean water all
over the West. Weve known how
to access clean water for a hundred
years. Weve gured that out. Now
its a maer of making sure that it
extends to everyone.
HEMISPHERES: Its not like people arent
trying to get it done.
DAMON: Sure, but half of all water
projects fail. There are massive
ine ciencies in the space. Thats one
of the things I love about Gary White,
who runs Water.org. Digging wells
wont solve the problem. Well never
be able to dig enough wells. So Gary
invented this idea of water credit,
which is really brilliant. It helps turn
people into customers, and uses the
power of the market to access exist-
ing resources.

For generations, the residents of a small,
rural slice of Mexicos Sierra Madre
mountains have pursued their livelihoods
at the expense of the monarch buttery.
Now, locals and the migrating insects have
forged an unlikely alliance. PHIL PRIMACK
travels to Michoacn to investigate.

S THE PEOPLE
around him hu and
pu their way along a
rocky trail 10,000 feet
up in Mexicos Sierra
Madre mountains,
Javier Martnez Coln walks with the easy gait of a man
in familiar territory. The 56-year-old chairman of his
local ejido, or agricultural collective, says lile as the
path narrows and the forest grows denser. The group
is entering the Sierra Chincua sanctuary, and Martnez
knows whats coming next.
A solitary buery iers over the path. Then ve,
then a dozen. Before long, the air is thick with them.
Weighing just half a gram each, the insects cling to the
trees in such numbers that the branches bend under
their weight. Finally, the trees dont look like trees
at all, but tree-shaped clumps of wings. Beneath his
white straw cowboy hat, Martnez looks on coolly as
his charges fumble for their cameras. All his life he has
watched las monarcas return to their winter retreats
in the states of Michoacn and Mexico, turning the
forest into a vivid swirl of orange and black. He played
with them as a kid.
Monarch migration to this beautiful but poor slice
of Mexico is now recognized as a wonder of the natural
world. UNESCO granted the protected sanctuaries World
Heritage Site status in 2008. However, the bueries
were not always warmly embraced here. People used
to think the monarchs were the souls of the departed,
Martnez says, explaining that the bueries ve-month
stay usually begins around Nov. 1, Mexicos Day of the
Dead. Later, as their numbers declined and conservation
eorts were taken up, the monarchs came to be viewed
as actual impediments to human survival, sparking
illegal logging rackets and, in places, civil unrest.
Its been a long, di cult struggle, but it has nally
ended. In Sierra Chincua, Martnez leans back against
an oyamel r, the hum of countless buery wings
overhead. Having grown up helping his father log
these forests, he knows his livelihood now relies on
something that until recently seemed inconceivable:
keeping them intact.

I
TS AN AGE-OLD conservationist
conundrum, one that is played out in
various forms across the world: the con-
icting environmental needs of humans
and wildlife. Historically, of course,
humans have generally prevailedsome-
times to the extent that a rival species is
displaced altogether. By the mid-1980s,
there was a real concern that this would
be the fate of Mexicos monarchs, whose
habitat was being destroyed at an alarm-
ing rate. But when the government moved
to formally restrict logging in these areas,
it provoked an angry response.
At first, people resented what the
government did, says Ana Maria Muiz
Salcedo, co-founder of Alternare, a
Michoacn-based nonprot that promotes
sustainable living. People depended on
the trees for income and to cook and to
heat their houses. This was a major switch
in their way of life, but nobody came to ask
themeven though they were the owners
of the forests.
Things intensified in 2000 with the
establishment of the Monarch Buery
Biosphere Reserve, a protection zone that
encompasses about 217 square miles (an
area roughly the size of Chicago). The
reserve was good news for las monarcas,
but not for those residents whose
livelihoods were eectively cut o. We did
not have a good rst impression about the
governments plans, recalls Martnez, as
a monarch lands on his shoulder. People
were worried.
Many simply ignored the restrictions,
while others organized illegal logging
gangsor mafias, as the locals called
themthat developed a fearsome
reputation. Even after the forests came
under federal protection, more than 1,000
acres a year were still being cleared. The

police made arrests. Some locals
dug ditches and set fires to deter
the chain sawtoting thugs in their
communities. There were even calls
for a permanent military presence
in the area. But the eorts were nei-
ther consistent nor coordinated, and
the monarchs habitat continued
to dwindle.
Then, in 2004, the World Wildlife
Fund, which had been struggling to
protect the monarchs for more than
two decades, proposed a radical solu-
tion. Rather than trying to compel
people to stop destroying the forests,
it said, why not create an environ-
ment in which they would want to
stop? We help people understand
that, if managed well, these forests
could generate a lot of money for all
of them, explains Eduardo Rendn
Salinas, who directs the WWFs mon-
arch program in Mexico. People have
become conscious of the benets of
the forest not only to the monarchs,
but also to their own lives.
A
GOOD EXAMPLE OF
the change taking hold can
be found in the story of
two brothers, Miguel and Salvador
Cayetano Contreras. In the indig-
enous community of Crescencio
Morales, located in a valley below
the monarchs mountain reserves,
the brothers tend to thousands of
firs and other pine trees. The sap-
lings grow in long, orderly rows in
the small field that is home to the
subsidized vivero, or nursery, that
they set up after returning from a
decade working construction in New
York. The idea is that Miguel and Sal-
vador will grow trees to replenish the
forests that were culled by loggers,
while proceeds from the sale of the
trees will help protect these same
forests in the future. The project is
part of an agreement we made not
to cut trees, in exchange for support
for the vivero, says Miguel. Even
though the monarch does not fly
here, we benet from it.
Modesta Flores Snchez is part of
a similar program. Behind a simple
cinder-block house lined with ow-
ers, she keeps a small greenhouse
full of the mushrooms that she and
other members of her ejido have
been trained to grow and sell. This
has made things beer for us, she
says, gesturing at the modest crop
as two of her grandchildren look on.
Using public and private donations,
the WWF covered the $5,000 startup
cost for the mushroom enterprise,
and has supported others like it
across the reserve areaagain, with
the aim of drawing people out of
the forests and into the fields. Or
sometimes the gi shops.
A great many of the work-creation
schemes here have focused on the
ecotourism market. The four buer-
fly sanctuaries open to the public
aract as many as 150,000 visitors a
year, sparking a need for everything
from tour guides to food vendors
to vigilancia comunitaria, or com-
munity surveillance teams, which
patrol the reserves and report illegal
logging. Still, it was a tough sell.
When the reserve was created, I had

THREE PERFECT DAYS || KELOWNA
WHEN FACED WITH
the prospect of describing
Kelowna, a wine making
and ski resort town
surrounded by three
mountain ranges and a
lake in Canadas Okana-
gan Valley, one is tempted
to rely on juxtaposition:
Napa meets Tahoe, Side-
ways meets Dirty Dancing,
Ski Party meets Meatballs.
Otherwise, conveying
the scope of the place
can be di cult. In valleys
abuing a 68-mile-long
lake fed by crystalline
mountain streams sit
nearly 30 wineries, 20
golf courses, countless
running and biking
trails, and a ski resort
with some of the most
pillowy powder in the
world. What the com-
parisons fail to capture,
however, is that unlike
Napa or Tahoe, Kelowna
is a 1,120-square-mile
playground that remains
largely untouched by the
other kids. You can taste
wines poured by the vint-
ners themselves, swoop
down black diamond
runs all by yourself and
procure a lakeside table
without making reserva-
tions a week in advance.
As one local ski instructor
puts it, I think I waited in
a li line for ve minutes
... once? Napa meets
Tahoe meets Narnia.
There. That should do it.

DAY ONE | Its a powder day when you wake up in your luxury
Stonebridge Lodge apartment at Big White Ski Resort, so you
dont bother turning on the replace or the hot tub while you
toss back a cup of coee. Youve stored your skis and boots in
the lockers downstairs, and in less than 15 minutes
youre out the door and hoong it to Beanos Cofee
Parlor in Big White Village. On the way to breakfast,
you accidentally take a step o the path and sink
into a snowdri up to your hip. Its gonna be a good morning.
With a fortifying ham-egg-and-veggie bagel in hand, you secure
the services of a spunky British ski instructor named Fi, and the
two of you head for the slopes via the Snow Ghost Express. As
you peer out at a panorama of droopy, haphazardly snow-dusted
Dr. Seuss trees, the powder comes down so soly it gliers in the
air like a holiday store display. With each hundred-foot rise up
the mountain, the trees gain another layer of snow, until they
could be mistaken for contorted yeti reaching up for your feet.
These are the fabled snow ghosts of Big White, Fi says, and the
li youre riding is named in their honor.
You soon nd out why. Tree skiing is Big Whites
showpiecethe u between the trunks is thick
and airy, staying so for weeks. You have so much
fun slashing through the snow ghosts that your
quads dont call for a break until well aer noon.
When they do, you stow your skis and wander over to the west
side of the village, where the aprs parties are already beginning
at the ice bar behind Carvers. Inside, you order a hearty plate of
vindaloo poutine, an Indian twist on a French-Canadian classic
that combines sweet potato fries, braised lamb and cheese curds.
Its so delicious you wonder why there isnt an Indian restaurant

HOW BOUT
THEM APPLES?
Canadas fruit basket sees
the rst non-browning varieties
The Okanagan Valleys moder-
ate climate and rich silt are
a boon for more than just
winemakers. Since the S&O
Railway arrived in 1892, the area
around Kelowna has been one of
the most important agricultural
regions in British Columbia, par-
ticularly in terms of fruit. Today,
the Okanagan provides Canada
with 75 percent of its apricots,
40percent of its cherries and 20
percent of its peaches, plums,
pears and apples.
Now a local agriculture
biotech rm called Okanagan
Specialty Fruits has upped the
ante. By modifying the gene that
produces polyphenol oxidase
(the enzyme that makes sliced
apples turn brown), the company
has created the worlds rst
non-browning apple, dubbed
the Arctic. Reactions have been
mixed: Some worry that con-
sumers may be nervous about
genetically modied apples;
others say the breakthrough
will encourage people to eat
more pre-sliced fruit instead of
fries or chips. With government
approval pending, the fate of
the Arctic apple is uncertain,
but the folks at Specialty Fruits
remain bullish. If its successful,
company president Neal Carter
said last year, all the big guys
will be piling in to be second.
on every ski mountain; in fact, you ponder
the nancial viability of such a venture
while skiing circles around snow ghosts
the rest of the aernoon. When the light
nally starts to fade, you call it a day and
return to Stonebridge for a shower.
Warmly clad in an abundance of an-
nel, you walk back into the village to nd
a lively crowd at The BullWheel, a sporty
burger bar with hockey on several TVs.
Youve heard the bit about Canadians
being friendly, but here the patrons
are so personable that within minutes
nearly everyone at the bar has leaned
in to smell the maple-finished Crown
Royal youre drinking. I think they age
it in maple syrup barrels? ventures
one patron as a friendly debate erupts
about how its made. (A quick check with
Google shows that it is nished in maple-
toasted oak barrels.)
Before long, The BullWheels famously
gregarious and well-traveled manager, Al,
is regaling the assembled company with
the story of the time he drove a three-
wheeled mototaxi across the Peruvian
Andes (the jersey Al wore on said trip,
along with a few of his other sartorial
artifacts, can be found on the bars walls).
Although you would love to stay and
hear more, your stomach has started
grumbling. So you take a gondola over
to Kettle Valley Steakhouse, where your
waiter suggests a local wine to pair with
a 1-inch cowboy-cut rib steak in Mada-
gascar peppercorn sauce. The result is a
meal being someone who skied 20,000
vertical feet today (namely, you).

KELOWNA || THREE PERFECT DAYS
Because skiers are notoriously early to
riseand therefore early to drinkits
still barely evening when youve nished
eating. Theres no way youre geing to
bed without a nightcap. You opt for the
legendary Gunbarrel Coffeedecaf, of
courseat the Gunbarrel Grill. Working
from a cart in what looks like the lodge
of an exceptionally talented hunting
family, your waiter heats a sugar-rimmed
glass and lls it with brandy, coee and
cream, then pours flaming Grand Mar-
nier down the barrel of a shotgun into
your drink. The other patrons clap in
awe as this process is completed; within
minutes, similar carts bearing shotguns
appear at many of their tables. Launch-
ing the evenings drinking festivities, you
decide, is enough of an accomplishment
to merit hanging up your ski beanie
for the day.
DAY TWO | Your legs are screaming from
yesterdays powderfest, so you skip the
hill and sleep in awhile before strolling
over to Sant for a leisurely breakfast of
eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and
capers. Aer that, youre o to see a man
about 31 dogs.
The mans name is Tim, and the dogs
are Alaskan huskies. As the proprietors of
Candle Creek Kennels, Tim and wife Kerry
have adopted a passel of mus that didnt
quite make Iditarod teams, in addition to
other unwanted sled dogs from all over
British Columbia. While Tim selects the
dogs for todays ride, it becomes clear that
the energetic pups still really enjoy pulling
sleds, Iditarod or no. They hop on top of
their doghouses, bark, roll around on the
ground and chomp mouthfuls of snow.
Once roped in, the eight lucky winners pull
you on a zippy three-mile loop through a

Theres a pub-ish restaurant downtown
called Sturgeon Hall. Its about two
blocks from Prospera Place [where the
Rockets play], so people go there to have
dinner before the game.
solemn pine woodand even pose for pictures
before you grudgingly take your leave.
On your way back to the gondola, you cant
help but notice what looks like a 60-foot,
powder-blue frozen waterfall. You stop into
a nearby warming shed to ask what its for,
and find yourself quickly outfitted with
crampons, a harness and a pair of pickaxes.
Jim, a certied climbing guide with almost
four decades experience, hooks you into a top
rope as he informs you that this is Big Whites
Ice Climbing Tower. Just, uh, climb it? you say,
and Jim nods as if scaling a six-story column
of ice is the easiest thing in the world. Ten
agonizing minutes later, you actually reach
the top and, with your pickax, ring a small bell
that hangs there. You think your back may
punish you for this later, but youve earned
some mighty impressive pictures.
To celebrate, you take the gondola to Globe,
a petite tapas joint known for having the best
coee on the mountain. There you scarf down a sandwich of
Italian charcuterie followed by a set of smores, which arrive
alongside a ame for roasting the house-made marshmallows.
In a sugary fog, you bid farewell to Big White and drive down
into the town of Kelowna itself, where you check into the lake-
front Hotel Eldorado. Your room reminds you of a boathouse,
with antiqued wood oors, cozy cream linens and the occasional
paddle mounted on the wall. Still a bit chilled, youre immediately
drawn to the programmable whirlpool tub in an alcove with
waterfront windows (covered with white wooden slats, adjustable
for privacy). Dinner, you decide, can wait an hour.
OK, maybe a lile more than an hour. You eventually amble
downtown to Waterfront, a restaurant and wine bar whose chef,
Mark Filatow, is one of the few in Canada who are also members
of the prestigious Sommelier Guild. With his help, you order
a round of creamy Pacic oysters, braised porkstued ravioli
in white wine and pancea cream, and a buery duck breast
with mushroom and spaetzle saut paired with glasses of
spectacular local riesling and pinot noir. A waiter arrives with
a dessert menu, butaer two days of skiing, ice climbing and
dogsleddingyoure spent. You head back to the hotel and reluc-
tantly close the slats.

THREE PERFECT DAYS || KELOWNA
DAY THREE | Its a struggle to leave the
view from your room at the Eldorado,
but seeing all the boats in their slips
reminds you that Kelowna has free
Sunday parking, so you drive down-
town to check out the shops. On
Pandosy Street, you stumble upon
Pulp Fiction Cofee House, which provides
you with a crumbly blueberry scrumpet
and a creamy cappuccino to enjoy as you
flip through covers of racy 1950s dime-
store novels. Across the street is the
winsome boutique Olive & Elle, where you
pick up some French-style soaps and red
plaid annel blankets as gis.
Outside, you meet up with a local
whos agreed to drive you around for the
aernoon. Youre planning to visit a few of
Kelownas famous wineries, and you want
to be able to taste as much as you like. The
rst stop is Quails Gate, a homey oak-and-
brick aair with a roaring replace and
a tasting room overlooking the vines in
their ranks. A friendly attendant pours
you some delicate riesling and a rich, spicy
pinot noir. Another specialty, you learn, is
the Quails Gate chenin blanc, which was
served to President Obama on his first
visit to Canada, in 2009. You order a glass
with your lunch of crab cakes and parsnip
soup in the winerys restaurant.
Next up: Mission Hill Family Estate, a
grand Mediterranean-inspired hilltop
palazzo. With vines located in ve pockets
all over the Okanagan Valley, Mission Hill
can make anything from supremely light
viogniers to heady bordeaux blends. You
ask for a representative sample and then
beeline it to the capacious courtyard to
enjoy the view.
After returning to the Eldorado and
indulging in a lengthy nap, youre o to
dinner at RauDZ, a restaurant that focuses
on the bounty of the Okanagan, histori-
cally the breadbasket of British Columbia.
You settle on venison carpaccio with
apples and walnuts, and a veggie-stacked
cheeseburger the size of your head. Aer
all that wine, youre thinking you might
try something dierent to drink. Luckily,
bartender Gerry Jobe has just the thing:
the whiskey old-fashioned that won him
the gold in a recent cocktail competition.
As he stands at your table lling a lan-
tern with chocolate and tobacco smoke
in preparation for mixing your cocktail,
you marvel at the amount of time hes
spending on you. Come to think of it, you
didnt even make a reservation.
You wonder if the other kids really need
to know that this particular playground
exists. You take a sip of your cocktail. Let
them have Whistler.
Brooklyn-based Hemispheres senior editor
JACQUELINE DETWILER thinks New York
City is like a giant playground that all the
other kids have discovered.
BOARDING PASS From its many wineries, inviting shops and delicious eateries to its adventure-ready mountains and pristine lake,
the town of Kelowna, British Columbia, epitomizes year-round appeal. United can take you nonstop from Los Angeles to Kelowna, or y
you to Vancouver (a not-too-lengthy drive away) from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Denver and Chicago, plus seasonal service
from New York/Newark and Washington, D.C. Before boarding, consider purchasing a day pass to relax in a spacious United Club;
memberships are also available. For detailed schedule information or to book your ight, go to united.com.

IF THERES ONE THING to be sure of in
todays business world, its that nothing
can be taken for granted. Thanks
to the accelerating developments in
technology over the last 20 years, the
global business community has become
a much smaller and much faster place.
Flourishing in such an environment
requires smart professionals to do
whatever it takes to get on and to stay
on the right track. Its no longer good
enough to just keep upyou need to
stay ahead.
The job marketplace is currently
weighted heavily in the favor of
employers and they know it, which
puts you at a distinct disadvantage.
And were not just referring to those
looking for jobs. Even those with jobs
are at a disadvantage.
If you want to get ahead and stay
ahead, rising stars must be prepared
to keep learning. Bachelors degrees
are commonplace today and it may be
necessary to pursue graduate degrees
or other executive education to compete
effectively. Did you know that almost
50 percent of college students today
are over the age of 25? Compared to just
28 percent back in 1970, this is certainly
an indicator of what professionals
are doing to remain ahead of their
competition. Continued learning is
absolutely necessary if you expect to
remain valuable and on the fast track
at your company.
At any level you
should always be
seeking improvement
and this can come
through continuing education as
well as management training. Many
companies will actually pay for this
training but even if your company does
not, it will be an investment worth
making in yourself that will speak
volumes to your employer. This type
of commitment will usually help in
the areas of job security, pay raises and
even promotions.
Its never been easier. Many schools
even offer online learning options that
make the whole thing quite simple.
Other bricks and mortar programs
may have multiple campuses or offer
evening and weekend classes to
accommodate the professionals. The
following pages showcase a variety
of degree and executive education
options. Regardless of your current
situation, securing you future with
lifelong education will reward you for
years to come. Its your future, now go
get it!
"It will be an investment worth making
in yourself that will speak volumes ..."

Fleet Facts
p.s. PREMIUM SERVICE: Weve started the process of a nose-to-tail refurbishment of our p.s. eet to ofer the international experience on routes
serving JFKLAX and JFKSFO. Our rst recongured aircraft began ying in January, and the reconguration of our p.s. eet is scheduled to be complete
by late 2013. Upgrades include at-bed seats in United BusinessFirst and personal on-demand entertainment throughout.
BOEING 767 FLEET UPGRADE: The 767 eet upgrade is nearing completion, with new features like at-bed seats in United BusinessFirst and personal
on-demand entertainment throughout. United ofers more 180-degree at-bed seats than any other carrier in the world. By the second quarter of 2013, all
ights operated on internationally congured 747s, 757s, 767s, 777s and 787s will ofer at-bed seats.
In November 2012, United began scheduled domestic service
on the brand-new 787 Dreamliner, and in January we started
international service on the 787 between Los Angeles and
Tokyo. We are excited to expand our 787 service to destinations
in Europe, Asia and Africa in 2013.
The Dreamliner ofers a number of travel-enhancing features
that will make your ight more enjoyable, including improved
lighting, larger windows with electronic dimmers and more
spacious overhead bins. Also, lower cabin altitude, enhanced
ventilation systems and higher humidity levels reduce the
efects of jet lag on long-haul ights.
The 787s innovative carbon composite structure makes the
Dreamliner more fuel-ef cient and environmentally friendly to
y. In addition to reducing carbon emissions, the 787s design
reduces noise during takeof and landing. The 787s improved
operating economics enable us to launch service between cities
previously not served by United, such as the Denver-to-Tokyo
service that starts this spring.

AMERICA NEEDS A
NATIONAL AIRLINE POLICY
Its time for taxes on airfare
to begin their descent.
U.S. airlines and their customers last year paid $19 billion
in federal taxes. For example, you may have paid $300 for
your domestic round-trip ight with $61 of the ticket price
going to Washington, marking a federal tax rate higher
than alcohol and tobacco, sin products that are taxed to
discourage their use.

Our economy depends on air travel. Commercial aviation
drives $1 trillion in economic activity and 10 million jobs. We
need a National Airline Policy that reduces taxes on airfare,
to help keep travel and shipping affordable and enable
airlines to expand travel and service options.

A National Airline Policy is good for passengers, good for
businesses and shippers, good for communities and good
for our economy.

To learn more and sign the petition, please scan the QR code
or visit NationalAirlinePolicy.com

Safety &
Travel Assistance
INFORMATION
Travel assistance for delayed or canceled ights
Staying Fit IN-FLIGHT FLEXIBILITY
At United, our priority is safety and keeping an on-time schedule. On occa-
sion, canceling or delaying a ight is the only option to ensure we maintain
the highest safety standards.
Flight interruption? We will conrm you on the next United ight with
available seats. Kiosks located in the concourse will assist you with
information and a boarding pass, and will also help you stand by for an
earlier United ight if one is scheduled. If you want to travel standby and
arent boarded, we will transfer your name to the next United ight to your
destination until you are onboard.
What about my bag? Baggage is boarded on the next ight if space is
available, which means your bags may arrive before you. If so, United will
secure the bag until you claim it. See a baggage claim representative.
What if I have to stay overnight? If a ight is canceled to address a
mechanical issue or a similar issue within our control, we will provide
you with a hotel and meal voucher. For uncontrollable eventssuch as
weatherwe may be able to help you locate a local hotel at a discounted
rate; however, United does not cover hotel or meal expenses in this event.
If we cannot retrieve your checked bag, overnight kits containing toiletries
are available. Please see an agent.
What if the reason for my travel no longer exists? If as a result of the
delay or cancellation you opt not to travel, call United reservations
(1-800-UNITED-1) to learn about your options.
Help us help you stay informed. Sign up for Trip Alert, our messaging
service that informs you if your ight is canceled or delayed, at united.com.
At home? Go to united.com for information or to check in and print your
boarding pass.
Your safety and satisfaction are important to us. We appreciate your
business and apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced.

Oentimes in West Africa or sub-
Saharan Africa, which is the epicenter
of the bad-water epidemic, the munici-
palities are piping water right under
the street but lile of it gets to peoples
homes because they dont have taps.
Garys idea is that you give the people a
water credit in the form of a $100 loan,
and they connect to the pipes and have
a tap put in their home. And then hope-
fully theyll come back for another loan
and put a latrine in their house.
HEMISPHERES: Do you think of water as
a human right?
DAMON: Yes. Its a necessity to survive,
yet we seem to take it for granted in
the West because it costs so lile. But
when you go to a community where
they dont have ityeah, its obviously
a human right.
HEMISPHERES: Promised Land is not a
long walk from the subject of water, given
that theres a fair amount of controversy
over the environmental impacts of frack-
ing. Where did the movie come from?
DAMON: It was John Krasinskis idea.
He went to the writer Dave Eggers, who
he knew from Away We Go, and Dave,
who Im a huge admirer of, came up with
the story. And then Dave got busy with
his book, A Hologram for the King, and
John and I decided to write the movie
ourselves. I was also going to direct, but
HEMISPHERES: But?
DAMON: It was December and I was
nishing doing press on We Bought a
Zoo. I had run late on another movie, and
I had been away from my kids for a long,
long time. I looked at the schedule aer
I got home and realized that I would have
to go into preproduction in a few weeks
for Promised Land and leave my kids yet
again. I couldnt do it. So I called John and
I told him. He was prey angry, and he
had a right to be. He said, You couldnt
have told me this a month ago? We cant
even get our agent on the phone, and
everyone is gone for the holidays.
I just kept apologizing to him, even
though I knew it was the right thing
to do. I knew that directing the movie
half-distracted would be a disaster. It
wouldnt serve the picture, so I walked
away from it. But I said, I still want to
do the movie, I love our movie, and you
have to trust me. The script is good;
were going to get a director. Luckily, the
next morning I emailed Gus Van Sant,
one of my all-time favorites, and he read
it right away and said yes right away. It
was a 12-hour hiccup, but a tough one.
HEMISPHERES: Gus directed Good Will
Hunting, which turned out pretty well.
And meanwhile your co-star in that movie,
Ben Af eck, has made a little lm ...
DAMON: Yeah, Argo is just amazing.
Im so happy for him. And Im not
surprisedI know beer than anybody
how talented he is. Ive known him for
30 years, and wrote a movie with him,
and spent a lot of time talking to him.
THE HEMI Q&A: MATT DAMON
Its great to see how well received this
movie was. And deservedly so. Its a
phenomenal movie.
HEMISPHERES: You received a career
tribute the other night at the Gotham
Awards. Is it really tribute time? How
old are you?
DAMON: Im 42. I completely agree.
I didnt even know what to say to that.
Im trying to get a lile $18 million movie
out there, so Im like, Yeah, sure, Ill go
to the Gotham Awards. Its still a lile
weird. I thought, Does this mean youre
telling me I cant work anymore? Are
you puing me out to pasture?
HEMISPHERES: Youre not ready for the
pasture. We need you to save the world by
making another Bourne movie.
DAMON: Im tied to the director, Paul
Greengrass, and if Paul wants to do it,
then I will too.
HEMISPHERES: The poster for Elysium
has you holding a gun so big it looks like
a cannon. Did you have to work out to be
able to hold that thing up?
DAMON: Its not that bad. Theyre
special-eects guns, so theyre not
super-heavy. But my character had a
shaved head and he was really built,
with taoos all over him, so going to the
gym three or four hours a day was a big
thing in geing ready for that movie.
HEMISPHERES: What do your kids think of
the haircut?
DAMON: My 2-year-old loves smacking
my head when its bald. It had grown
back a bit, but then I had two days of
reshoots and they said, You can wear
a bald cap, but youre going to be in the
makeup chair for an extra three hours in
the morning. So I said no way, and cut
it all o again. Im just happy it seems to
be growing back.
DAVID CARR, who covers media and culture
for The New York Times, is intrigued by the
idea of an irate John Krasinski.

question facing the people back in Mexico
is: What then?
The monarch is very important to the
economy here, says the WWFs Rendn,
but we need to establish programs and a
strategy for year-round tourism and other
kinds of regional development.
You get the sense, though, that the area
may have turned a corner, that people here
are determined to see this through, on
their own terms and in their own ways.
The Cayetano brothers, for their part,
would like to move beyond growing
trees: Theyre seeking funding to
start a sawmill to produce packag-
ing for the avocados, pineapples,
owers and other plants that our-
ish all around them. The population
is growing up here, says Miguel. If we
dont give our children more opportunities,
they will return to abusing the forest.
This is a real concern. People still speak
anxiously about the gangs that ran the
illegal logging operations, and fear that
theyll come back if gains arent made fast
enough. But, again, there seems to be a
sense of determination among locals to
keep pressing forward. If we stopped our
patrols, the illegal loggers would imme-
diately start again, says Marciano Solis
Sacarias, who works at the largest of the
WWF-supported tree nurseries in San Juan
Xoconusco, an indigenous community in
the state of Mexico. But now they know
we are well organized.
Sitting on stumps and planks, Solis
and his co-workers are eating a lunch of
beef grilled on a metal plate over a wood
re, accompanied by fresh avocados, pep-
pers and a pile of tortillas. On about four
acres of sloping eld below stand nearly
800,000 young trees. Up to 50 locals, includ-
ing women and children, work at this vivero
during prime planting season. For them, the
demise of the monarch would be unthink-
able. If it were not for the bueries, we
would not get support for this project,
says Solis brother, Fernando, hands in the
pockets of his work-worn jeans. We would
have to migrate out of here.

people to work with the government, says
Roberto Contreras Rodrguez, secretary of
the ejido of El Rosario, home to the areas
largest and most visited buery sanctu-
ary. They were skeptical. But now they see
that the tourists are coming.
The primary source of funding for
many of these initiatives is the Monarch
Buery Conservation Fund, established
in 2000 with a $5 million endowment from
the David and Lucile Packard Foundation,
plus $1.5 million from government sources.
From 2000 through 2012, about $2.6 million
in interest has been distributed to commu-
nities and private landowners around the
monarch sanctuaries. Today, more than
18,000 people receive money directly or
indirectly from the fund, the WWF says.
Given that there are 200,000 or so people
living in the area around the butter fly
reserves, that may not seem like a game-
changing figure, but theres more to the
effort than improving peoples immedi-
ate situations. In large part, the idea is to
establish new attitudes and patterns of
behavior among locals, and in this regard
the project is showing great promise. For
example, Javier Martnez Coln, who once
helped his father cut down trees on the site
of the Sierra Chincua reserve, now works
beside his own sons to preserve the forest.
Not that the monarch is in the clear
yeta combination of climate change,
pesticides and the destruction of its
milkweed food source by North American
farmers is making the species annual
journey south extremely di cult. In the
winter of 2005, enough monarchs arrived
in Mexico to ll about 14 acres of forest; just
six years later, the population needed only
about half as much space.
The fact remains, though, that if the
butter flies make it back to Mexico, they
face much better prospects for survival.
The WWF reports that illegal logging in and
around the Monarch Buery Biosphere
Reserve is at its lowest point since the
reserve was established in 2000so low,
in fact, as to be barely detectable. Aer 12
years, says Omar Vidal, director of WWF-
Mexico, we now have a story of success.

Any combination of berries may be used in
this salad. If berries are not in season, use
thinly sliced black plums or nectarines. Fresh
fruit in green salads provide sweetness that
balances the acidity of the dressing.
