May is a brilliant month for culinary. A lot of creativity goes into spring flavors and then there’s the start of summer grilling season.

Yes, there have been moments in the last 25 years that would contradict that such as 9/11, the blackout of 2003, SuperStorm Sandy and more.

47-WEEK WORKOUT Why It’s Time to Get Back on the Tennis Court By Sean-Patrick M. Hillman For many New Yorkers, tennis conjures up iconic images of the U.S. Open – the electric energy of late-summer matches under the lights. Names of my childhood like McEnroe, Connors, Navratilova, King, Evert and Agassi come to mind. For today, Federer, Djokovic, Nadal, Williams and Graf are prevalent.

How Jason Aldean and Country’s Elite Are Taking Over the Jersey Shore in 2025 By Sean-Patrick M. Hillman There’s something unmistakably special about a summer evening on the Jersey Shore: the scent of saltwater taffy, the hum of the boardwalk beneath your feet, and now—thanks to the Barefoot Country Music Festival (BCMF) — the thunderous twang of guitars and the roar of tens of thousands of country fans singing along in unison.

Now, we all have a way of being correct when talking about the moral and ethical vacuum history possesses. After all, hindsight is 20/20. But Gandhi made this statement in real time.
