CNN —Moving slowly, indeed almost hypnotically, “Ripley” takes a few episodes to kick in, but once it does there’s no turning back. Set in the early 1960s, the format provides the latitude to luxuriate in uncomfortable moments and build palpable tension around situations in Patricia Highsmith’s books, a sensation that becomes more intense once it’s demonstrated how ruthless Scott’s Tom Ripley can be. Living an idyllic life with his girlfriend Marge (Dakota Fanning), Dickie resists the notion but foolishly invites Tom into his orbit. Marge might be suspicious of Tom’s motivations, but he quickly wins over Dickie despite his occasionally strange behavior. If they do, give the credit, primarily, to the talented Messrs. Zaillian and Scott.

But guests luxuriate on high-end cruises, many of which are all-inclusive and don't have this problem. Access to the spa is complimentary on the Explora I and Seven Seas Grandeur. Brittany Chang/Business InsiderSure, luxury cruises have a higher base fare. "I'd rather have a few empty beds and get the right guests at the right price," Michael Ungerer, CEO of MSC Group's new luxury cruise line, Explora Journeys, told Business Insider in 2023. "Most of [the amenities] are already included, so we don't have to upsell."

Now Carole, immersed in lesbian culture, was an evening law student intent on practicing civil rights law. I, an Easterner and twice-divorced mother, a doctoral student moonlighting as a community college teacher, wasn’t even aware a lesbian culture existed. Both activists talking civil rights and gender politics nonstop, we were madly, eagerly in love. Yet an unparalleled sweetness sings deep in the bones now after nearly half a century of committed love. In this time-proven love, even as we flourish independently we keep twining ourselves more closely around each other.

According to Census Bureau data, 44% of boomers are at retirement age and millions more are soon to join them. And since younger boomers are less financially prepared for retirement than their older boomer siblings, the problem is bound to get worse. AdvertisementAs boomers continue to age out of the workforce, it's going to put strain on the healthcare system, government programs, and the economy. Not all boomers are richIt's undeniable that some boomers will enjoy a cushy retirement. The median retirement account for that age group has only $200,000 — meaning that half of 65- to 74-year-olds have even less saved up.

How Hip-Hop Conquered the World

“La di da di, we like to party” alongside “I never prayed to God, I prayed to Gotti.” Hip-hop arose from want. Hip-hop is Julia Roberts after being written off in “Pretty Woman” by that snooty sales lady: Big mistake. There’s almost nowhere hip-hop hasn’t been: the White House, the Pulitzers, the Oscars, the sitcom, the Louvre, syllabi, country radio, fashion week, Sesame Street. Even when its practitioners aren’t Black, maybe especially when they’re white, hip-hop incriminates the country that drove its people to dream it up in the first place. Hip-hop is what this country gets.

There Are No Universal Salves

My children and I were visiting New York City’s most important landmarks, so naturally we began our journey at the Glossier flagship store in SoHo. Ever since 2014, those loyal to dewiness and glossiness have sought a consecrated place to pay homage to Balm Dotcom universal salve and Boy Brow grooming pomade. We believe beauty is about having fun, celebrating freedom, and being present, because no matter where you are in your beauty journey — YOU LOOK GOOD. The mirror in the Glossier flagship store would like a word. I expect to be miraculously transformed into a fresh-faced teenager, but in the mirror I discover a creased old crone with inexplicably neon-orange lips.
‘Tell a dream, lose a reader,” writing teachers say to their charges. But after you’ve won five Academy Awards, you may feel you’ve earned the right to luxuriate in your fancies. Mr. Iñárritu’s latest, “Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths,” signals accurately in its title that it’s a heady dose of magical-realist arthouse cinema intended for serious filmgoers only. Yet it’s a dense, plotless, phantasmagorical swirl of memories, wishes and grudges, and so it demands full concentration in a theater. It is not best experienced from the lounge chair whose occupant may be distracted by the phone or the proximity of the kitchen.
Not even closeThough largely unknown in the West, sand hammams — or sand baths — are anything but new. Desert camps in Morocco are offering sand hammams, or sand baths, to travelers. Sand hammams are not advisable for anyone with blood pressure or heart-related medical problems, due to the intensity of the heat. Due to the sand's mineral composition, sand hammams are also used to combat skin conditions, such as acne, psoriasis and other medical ailments. The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur, also offers treatments on a hot sand therapy bed in a dedicated psammotherapy suite.
