Luxury Travel's Stunning Rebound - Travel Market Report:

" . . . the powerful trend toward experiential travel, where clients seek out unique encounters with a destination’s culture, history and people.

"Although the world No. 1 wasn't nearly as sharp in all facets of his game as he was during his second-round 61, his first bogey-free round of the season, he nonetheless kept the rest of the field at a safe distance with a 2-under-par 68 to lead by seven with 18 holes to play."

Tiger Woods shoots first-round 66 at Bridgestone Invitational - CBSSports.com:

"Woods has finished in the top 10 in 11 of his 13 appearances at this tournament (including seven wins) and he looks to be on his way once again to a great showing with a first-round 66 on Thursday.

Here are Woods' average first rounds at Firestone separated by wins and non-wins:

When he wins: 66.4
When he doesn't win: 68.8

So that looks about right if you're rooting for Woods to get his fifth win of the 2013 season."

Does Cooking Strip Red Wine's Benefits? - NYTimes.com

Ask Well: Does Cooking Strip Red Wine's Benefits? - NYTimes.com:

"The short answer is probably yes: You can drink your wine and cook it too.

Red wine essentially has two properties that make it good for health when consumed in moderation. One is its alcohol content, which is known to increase “good” HDL cholesterol and reduce levels of fibrinogen, a precursor of blood clots. The other is its abundance of polyphenols, natural compounds like resveratrol that, according to some studies, can protect blood vessels and help reduce inflammation."

US Credit Cards With Smart Chip Technology | The Points Guy

Follow the link below for a list of vendors offering credit cards with smart chips.  We recently visited France, and thankfully had one credit card with a chip.  It came in handy many times.

US Credit Cards With Smart Chip Technology | The Points Guy:

"Most US cards don’t have chip technology because it is expensive and not required by US merchants, so issuers have been dragging their feet on issuing new cards with them. The good news, though, is that we’re seeing more and more issuers putting chips in more and more cards because of consumer demand, so if you’re in the market for a new credit card, chances are you can find one that suits your needs financially and has a chip in it."

Study: Another Reason for Daily Wine - James Hamblin - The Atlantic:

Video Clips of Tiger - 2013 WGC-Cadillac

It's fun to watch Tiger playing well.

Nicklaus Thinks Tiger Woods Can Catch His Record

Jack Nicklaus still thinks Tiger Woods can catch his record but needs to 'get going' - ESPN:

"In what now sounds like a broken record, Nicklaus maintains that records are made to be broken, including his gold standard of 18 professional majors, despite Woods' rough weekend.

Stats & Info: The Man's Got A Point
Tiger Woods is four majors behind Jack Nicklaus' record of 18, and at 37, Woods should be "getting with it," according to Stats & Info. Blog

Woods' effort at the Honda Classic included two lost balls, four shots in the water and 15 shots out of the bunkers. He made four double bogeys, was never better than 3-under par at any point and was under par for only 26 out of the 72 holes he played.

None of this was enough to alarm Nicklaus.

"I still think he'll break my record," Nicklaus said "

Cuts Causing Long Lines at Airports

---  the original post follows below  ---

Napolitano: Cuts causing long lines at O'Hare, other airports - chicagotribune.com:

"Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano on Monday cautioned airline passengers to get to the airport extra early because U.S. spending cuts have already led to long lines at some security checkpoints, and said the coming furloughs will only make the situation worse.

Napolitano said mandatory spending cuts ordered on Friday by President Barack Obama have led to the elimination of overtime for Transportation Security Administration officers and customs agents. She said TSA would begin sending out furlough notices to employees on Monday. Hiring freezes have also prevented any open positions from being filled.

"We are already seeing the effects at some of the ports of entry - at the big airports, for example. Some of them had very long lines this weekend," Napolitano said at a "Politico Playbook" breakfast event.

She pointed to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport as examples of those with long lines."
