Onassis devoted most of her time to plan social events that were to be at the White House as well as other state properties. Frequently she could invite poets, writers, artists, musicians and scientists so that they could mingle with diplomats, statesmen and politicians, Molly Driscoll, (2011). She as well started to let guests at the White House drink cocktails, in an attempt to give the mansion a more relaxed feeling.
Onassis proved to be very popular among international dignitaries, and the reasons could be her skill at entertaining. Prior to her visit to France, a television special was shot in French house having First Lady on the White House lawn. In this visit, the public was really impressed with her ability to speak fluent French, and also her extensive knowledge of French history. Jacqueline learnt her French language through a prominent Puerto Rican educator "Maria Teresa Babin Cortes."
While attending the urging of John Kenneth Galbraith, U.S. Ambassador to India, she also toured Pakistan where she took her sister (Lee Radziwill) along with her. This became an amply documented in photojournalism of the time and in Galbraith's journals and memoirs. During this time Galbraith who was an ambassador noted a considerable disjunction between Onassis' widely-noted concern with clothes and frivolity and her considerable intellect in terms of her personal acquaintance.
When she was in Karachi, Pakistan, she got an opportunity of riding a camel with her sister. The First Lady was presented with a much-photographed horse, Sadar, a word from Urdu in referring to a "leader" by Pakistani President Ayub Khan, in Lahore, Pakistan. Consequently the gift became widely misattributed to the king of Saudi Arabia, this included various recollection of the Onassis years in White House by President Kennedy's friend Benjamin Bradlee who was a journalist and an editor, (Jone Johnson Lewis, 2012) .
Jacqueline Kennedy's life as a First Lady became a symbol of fashion for women in the world. She used French-born American fashion designer and Kennedy family friend Oleg Cassini in the fall of 1960 in creating for her an original wardrobe for her as First Lady. Cassini could dress the First Lady several of her most iconic ensembles, this included her Inaugural gala gown and Inauguration Day fawn and most of her outfit...

Worst of all, despite their niche, the company seems to be threatened by other companies entering the high-end health club and spa market. It seemed as though clubs offering cheaper, thoguh less superior business, are attracting more clients. Some of these clubs and hotel ranges also seemed to have enviable connections.

He has the well-earned reputation of being the "a hawk's hawk in the Bush administration" (Corn, 2005). For instance, when the Bush administration did not get UN's backing for its war in Iraq, Bolton observed that was "further evidence to many why nothing should be paid to the UN system." (Ibid.) Officials who have worked under him, invariably describe Bolton as a bully. At his confirmation hearings in the Senate,
However, he makes it equally clear that he feels no obligation to help Agamemnon's men.
