Words by Markin Abras Born in Bordeaux, France and having lived her teenage years in Manila, Philippines, Chef Bella often draws inspiration for her dishes from the flavors and ingredients found in these traditional cuisines. Chef Bella went on to develop her skills further with a formal education at The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York.

Located in the first and only Relais & Châteaux property in the state of Hawaii, The Restaurant at Hotel Wailea delivers seasonal, island-grown dishes prepared by Executive Chef Zach Sato. A Maui native with a passion for Hawaiian culture, Chef Sato focuses on ingredients handpicked from the hotels’ own farming practices. This practice ensures that every dish has the freshest possible ingredients and heightened flavor. Words by Markin Abras For starters, choose the Hamachi Tataki served with heart of palm, avocado, and Finadene sauce. It is a light yet flavorful appetizer. The truffle risotto is also another delightful choice made with Ali’i mushrooms, truffle butter, and Parmesan Reggiano. Choose the Kona Lobster with knuckle fried rice, Lob Cheong, and tempura asparagus as your main dish. The Colorado lamb shank is a special treat accompanied with cannellini beans, broccolini, dates, mac-nut gremolata. For something sweet, choose the Hawaiian molten lava chocolate, flambéed with rum and served with light and fluffy honey marshmallows. The mango coconut with whipped lilikoi ganache and valrhona passion inspiration is another sublime choice.

Arne Wilhelmsen, a founder of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. and a visionary strategist of the modern cruise industry, died Saturday, April 11, 2020, in Palma, Spain. He was 90. The entire Royal Caribbean family extends its heartfelt condolences to the Wilhelmsen family. Wilhelmsen was a constant influence on the company from its founding, serving more than three decades on the company's board of directors. Together with the company's first CEO, the late Edwin Stephan, Wilhelmsen saw possibilities for the nascent cruise industry that others did not. "At a time when the rest of the world thought cruising was a niche use for old transatlantic liners, Arne was already seeing glimmers of the growth that was possible," said Richard Fain, RCL's chairman and CEO. "He had a vision of the modern cruise industry when the 'industry' might have been a dozen used ships, total." Their key insight: building new ships uniquely designed for cruising in warm weather. The industry did not grow from New York, the traditional transit hub; it came to Miami, helping the region itself grow as the public discovered an entirely new way to take a vacation. Wilhelmsen saw the potential for cruising to become the fastest growing segment in a growing vacation industry.  A believer in economies of scale, he once recalled, "My initial challenge was to convince my partners and management in Miami to build bigger and more efficient ships in order to grow the company."  True to his vision, the company now sails 61 ships calling on all seven continents and its fleet features the largest cruise ships in the world. Born on June 15, 1929, in Oslo, Norway, Wilhelmsen earned his MBA at Harvard Business School and worked as a chartering assistant for Norway's EB Lund & Co. and later as a shipbroker in New York. After joining the family business in 1954, he became its president in 1961. The scion of a leading Norwegian shipping concern – Anders Wilhelmsen & Co AS – he spent most of his life in the family business, including an early stint as a deckhand. "Arne was a steady presence and source of wisdom on our board for decades," Fain said. "And in 2003, when he was ready to step back, he was succeeded on the RCL board by his son, Alex, who has carried the involvement of the Wilhelmsen family in charting our company's course into its sixth decade. Our high standards as a company, our insistence on excellence in operations and design, and our determination to persevere all owe a great deal to the long-term vision of Arne, Alex and the Wilhelmsen family. We salute our friend, and we will miss him dearly."

“It doesn’t matter where we start from*...” Carla Lonzi, Autoritratto, 1969. Autobiography, self-portrait, story. Associating places, images, words. Freely, with fresh eyes. For this fall- winter 2020-2021 ready-to-wear collection, Maria Grazia Chiuri maps out an atlas of emotions through the prism of her teenage diary. Two photos of her mother transport her back to this time in her life, a laboratory brimming with possibilities of what the future may hold. Images reappear, including photos of actresses who served as inspiration for clients of her mother’s couture atelier, as well as for the Creative Director herself, who used fashion as a way of asserting herself, of rebelling, and communicating to others how she wanted to be perceived. Next came other photos from the past that she revisits with her vision today: Germana Marucelli’s studio in Milan, designed by artist Paolo Scheggi; that of Mila Schön by Ugo Mulas and, lastly, portraits of Carla Accardi. This arborescent diagram inspired Maria Grazia Chiuri’s very own The Little Dictionary of Fashion**, with jeans, as well as the checks that Monsieur Dior was so fond of. “I love checks. They can be fancy and simple; elegant and easy; young and always right***.” Checks resurface on an ensemble designed by Marc Bohan: it’s this outfit, with the motif placed on the bias, that inspired the structure of the collection’s skirts. There’s also the pea coat and pleated skirts. Little collars with ties. Black and white. All this is at the heart of a perfectly balanced collection. A polka dot scarf found in the Dior archives serves as the starting point for a series of dresses in various lengths that explore the print’s infinite possibilities. As Christian Dior writes in his The Little Dictionary of Fashion: “I would say the same about dots as about checks. They are lovely, elegant, easy and always in fashion.***” Not to mention fringes, which provide mobile ornamentation on long skirts. Knitwear spans all the wardrobe essentials: sweaters, jackets, skirts, and pants. The show venue was designed in collaboration with the Claire Fontaine collective, which has exhibited at the National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rome. The museum is also home to the archives of Carla Lonzi, a charismatic figure who was an art critic before committing to the feminist cause. “Io Dico Io – I Say I ****”, the title of an upcoming exhibition dedicated to Italian women artists, supported by Dior, becomes the starting point for a series of manifesto-like phrases. Evoking these words in English – “I say I” – right at the show’s entrance brings to life a story of powerful self-assertion. They are the symbol of a joyful singularity, as well as a creative and collective way of approaching the multiple aspects of feminine subjectivity — and the infinite project that femininity represents. Click to Launch Slide Show * In Italian: “Cominciamo da un punto qualunque...” ** In reference to the dictionary published by the founding couturier in 1954. *** Excerpt from The Little Dictionary of Fashion by Christian Dior. **** “Io Dico Io – I Say I” is the title of an exhibition which will be held at Rome’s National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art from 23 March to 21 June 2020. Produced with Dior’s support, it is loosely based on the feminist manifesto of Carla Lonzi, which inspired this collection and the pieces designed for the show.

Jackson Health Foundation stated that José Milton Family and United Property Management ("UPM") will donate 300 apartment units to be used, free of charge, by healthcare professionals at Jackson Health System as they continue to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. "The staff at Jackson Health System continues to put their lives on the line every day to keep our community safe," said Cecil Milton, president of José Milton & Associates. "We are offering staff apartments where they can live and keep their families safe by practicing social distancing as they continue to fight against this disease. COVID-19 is an unprecedented threat to our community, and we are fortunate to have such a talented, dedicated, and compassionate healthcare team at Jackson leading the fight." The donated apartments are fully furnished and include free utilities. The apartments will be available under a 30-day lease, with weekly extensions as required, and amounts to an overall donation of over $2.2 million. "I think it's a wonderful resource for any employee at Jackson," said Carla Calonge, a nurse in the emergency department at Jackson Memorial Hospital whose daughter Deniz Azucena Aguero, is a senior ER technician in the pediatric emergency department at Holtz Children's Hospital. "This allows my daughter and me to continue serving the Public Health Trust and being able to go home with the peace of mind that we are not exposing our loved ones to a potentially deadly disease. We are beyond grateful to the Jose Milton Family and Jackson for giving us this peace of mind." City of Miami Commissioner Ken Russell worked alongside Jackson Health Foundation, the Jose Milton Family, and Jackson Health System to bring this effort to fruition. Commissioner Russell was approached by the José Milton Family about finding a way to help first responders using their stock of furnished apartments. After a nurse at Jackson lost her life to the coronavirus, he called Jackson Health System President and CEO Carlos A. Migoya to offer healthcare workers a place to stay while working on the frontlines, instead of worrying about spreading the virus to their families. Russell had earlier put together a free meals program for 2,500 nurses and doctors at Jackson Health System with Uber Eats. "Our first responders are the heroes of this crisis. Offering the comfort of food and a safe place to stay while this battle is being fought is the least we can do to support them as they keep us safe," said Miami Commissioner Ken Russell. "I will continue putting those in need together with those who generously want to help." The temporary apartment units will be available at three of UPM's developments in cooperation with their short-term rentals partners - Miami Bay Waterfront Residences and Mare Azure Short-Term Rentals, Brickell West Apartments and Love Pop Realty/Outpost Miami, and Intracoastal Yacht Club and Hosteeva Short-Term Rentals. "The Milton family and United Property Management are the epitome of community corporate leaders," said Carlos A. Migoya, president and CEO of Jackson Health System. "They leaped into action immediately, and it's making a real difference for our nurses, doctors, and other frontline caregivers."
