Pontiac Grand Prix Electrical/Lighting
I have a 99 Grand Prix SE 3.1L and I have been having an issue with my lights dimming(all lights, dash lights, headlights, taillights, interior lights) and my blower motor for heat slows down when im at idle, but as soon as I give it gas or start to drive, the lights brighten back up like they should be and the blower motor blows hard again like it should. Any ideas on how to fix this? FYI, I have replaced my Alternator, Battery, and Serpentine belt so far and it still hasn't fix the issue. Also all my Fuses seem ok. This car does not have HUD or any fancy features like that, its the basic SE model but does have power windows, locks, power driver seat, etc. Any help would be appreciated, I'm at a lost at this point and so tired of putting money into this car.
Eight months to the day after my headlights went out for the first time it has happened again. Last time I changed the Headlight Relay in the engine compartment fuse box and didn't have a problem for 8 months. This morning no headlights again. Everything else works and no matter if the switch is on auto or on, the headlights don't work. The brights work and everything else too. I changed the relay again, didn't work. I took the new relay back to the store and they gave me another one, still didn't work.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks again,
kckinnc Posts: 1if funny i have the exact same problem with my 97 and i dont know what it is i am the 2nd owner of this car i have also checked fuses and nothing i was told the previous owners child tried to install a aftermarket radio and i checked and the factory harness is still in tact .... any ideas would be great ... thanks
The headlight problems continue... My 2006 GP now has 175000+ miles on it and the problem with the headlights continues. Occasionally the headlights will just go out but the car doesn't recognize that the lights are off. Everything else works fine. I have twice replaced the relay in the fuse box and now the daytime running lights were staying on. I took it to an "auto electric" specialist who could not figure out the problem but did succeed in charging me $350. I took it to the dealer who spent hours looking but again, no solution. Now the DRL are staying on after the car is off. At least the dealer didn't charge me anything. The relay was hot as hell so I again replaced it which shut off the lights after the car was off but something is frying these relays and I have no idea what. You might think 175000 miles is time to go, but the car is in absolutely perfect shape, I have done all maintenance since brand new and I am not ready to give up on it just yet. Any ideas would be appreciated as I think there must be something in the under hood fuse box causing the relay to heat up to the point of malfunctioning. Thanks for any ideas!

Wealthy Asians are buying up European investment visas—essentially residency permits that can help pave the path to dual citizenship. Our colleagues at Barron's Penta Asia note that, in some instances, the trend is helping to sweeten the terms for all well-heeled folks. In Greece, for instance, the Parliament is expected to alter its Golden Visa program to allow for three generations of one family to buy a five-year residence permit for just EUR250,000 (or $312,000). Interestingly, the Chinese politburo is scrutinizing the program for potentially corrupt government officials trying to launder money outside of the country.
Other visas highlighted in the story: Portugal requires investors fork over at least EUR500,000; Cyprus requires a EUR300,000 property purchase, and offers immediate citizenship with a EUR2.5 million property investment.
Looking to construct a real estate portfolio that participates in the U.S.'s revived housing market? The folks at Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management have constructed a diversified portfolio that they say should give you a solid 5.5% per annum over the next five years after adjusting for inflation. Mark Roberts, the bank's managing director of real-estate investment, is particularly upbeat about office and industrial real estate, which have historically outperformed when the economy was improving.
As the housing market has recovered, certain sectors have heated up faster than others. Last year, demand for apartments expanded as Millennials continued to choose rentals over purchases. Though this sounds positive for apartment-building investments, Roberts remains underweight because new construction is flooding into the market. Retail real estate also faces some headwinds owing to its relatively long leasing periods that could leave it exposed when rates rise.
Still, the office and industrial sectors will continue to be the gems in investors' real estate portfolios. There Roberts is eyeing between 6% and 7.5% annual returns over the coming five years. Industrial real estate investments will benefit from the supply of warehouses lagging demand. Trade, particularly with China and other Asia Pacific countries, will continue to benefit the industrial portion. The large-bay warehouses of Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, and New Jersey will generate above-average returns, Roberts says.
The wine cup is getting passed. Napa wineries are still 95% family-owned, but the original vintners who put Napa on the oenophile map back in the 1970s are all white-haired or dead. In 2008, a Silicon Valley Bank survey figured that 51% of West Coast wineries were planning to go through a change in control within 10 years. This aging generation of vintners essentially has to decide whether to pass their terroir to their offspring or sell the family holdings outright to big producers, rich folk looking for baubles, or private equity.
The great vineyard transition essentially started in 2004, when Constellation Brands (ticker: STZ) took out Robert Mondavi Winery for $1.4 billion. But the Mondavis are fourth-generation Napa Valley royalty, and started again. The late Robert, along with his children, Tim and Marcia, took their estimated $236 million and launched Continuum Estate. The goal was always to produce an enduring estate-based wine to be passed through the family for generations, says Tim Mondavi's 37 year-old daughter Carissa. After having lost control of the Robert Mondavi Winery to outside investors, the family is now doing everything it can to smartly pass along Continuum, with family members meeting with succession counselors twice per year. Interest in Continuum will ultimately be split, says Carissa, between her siblings, herself and cousins.
The importance of smart succession planning recently became apparent to Jasmine Hirsch, an heiress-apparent to Sonoma's venerable Pinot producer Hirsch Vineyards, currently selling 5,000 cases a year. Her father, David Hirsch, was hospitalized in mid-May after a tractor pinned him between its movable arms and the main body of the vehicle. David is stable and recovering but will likely miss the entire growing season.
Real estate in the world's top cities is "full valued." So says the "Candy GPS Report," a study taking the pulse of real estate across the globe and compiled by Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management, Candy & Candy and Savills.
Roughly half of real estate investments in recent years made by ultra-high net worth folks went to the top ten "alpha cities," which includes New York, London, and Hong Kong. According to Savills, between 2006 and 2012, the prices of real estate in the top-ten major cities, from Moscow to Singapore, have risen 11% annually, versus 5% for those outside those major urban areas. But now, after such torrid growth, the prices for prime property markets globally should revert to more regular, demand-driven growth, says Mark Roberts, head of alternatives and real estate for Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management. He estimates those returns will revert to their historic rate of 4% to 6% after inflation.
Here, now, is where it gets interesting. As the prime markets settle down, the research suggests that prices in "second-tier cities" could pick-up pace, as wealthy folks broaden their search for yield.
There's yet more evidence the luxury housing market is back. Christie's International Real Estate says that in 2013 a wave of domestic buyers diluted the influence of wealthy foreigners, who had previously been supporting local markets. And, surprise, deep-pocketed U.S.-based millennials were a big part of that, as they took their first dive into the U.S.'s luxury homes market.
According to Christie's, these young buyers actually crowded the market for entry level luxury homes, defined as houses over a $1 million, and bidding activity, recently, is stoking property markets ever higher.
Christie's findings jive in part with Penta's latest top-20 second-homes survey, which noted that the median sales price of $1 million-plus homes dropped 3.6%, to $1,874,628 last year. As we reported, lots of activity at the low end of the market – signs of a robust market – has the short term effect of dragging down the median price of houses, in a market previously dominated by a few very expensive houses at the top trading hands. Areas like Austin, for example, saw median prices fall by 4.3%, but local brokers told us that the lower end, just below $1 million, was particularly hot when compared to the trophy purchases of 2012 – and that's what created the overall decline in median prices.
The world of home entertainment technology is evolving at breakneck speed. In the same way flat-screen televisions made the tube television as quaint as a rotary phone virtually overnight, the once familiar plasma display panels are now on the way out.
They are being replaced by 4K display, which delivers 4,000 pixels of resolution, a huge leap over the current home high-definition format, which maxes out at 1,080 pixels. The 4K display televisions range in size from 39 to 85 inches and prices, accordingly, range from $500 to $40,000.
Then there is that 3D programming, suddenly showing up on your cable service. Another technical nightmare. Flat-screen 3D sets also need a specialized player, and the process still requires wearing funny-looking glasses while in your living room.
The next big investment opportunity might not be stocks. Citi Private Bank's chief investment officer Steven Wieting says that post-financial crisis investors have accepted that the world isn't ending but still crave investments that can be exited quickly. Patient investors with a longer time horizon can play this lingering anxiety by buying less liquid investment vehicles— like private equity firms and real estate— that are still sitting in the bargain bin. Among the opportunities are European corporate debt and investing in smaller North American energy firms.
With all the noise about folks moving up the risk curve, and the general shift from cash and fixed income to equities, it turns out a good portion of investors globally are still frozen in time. A recent Citi Private Bank survey of 50 family offices from over 20 countries found an average allocation of only 25% to equities and an astonishing 40% in cash. Unbeknownst to these wealthy investors across the globe, their excessively conservative portfolios produced mediocre results, a paltry 6% return last year compared to the MSCI World Index's 20.3% return. Citi Private Bank's gains, for a portfolio with 51% in equities and 5% to cash, came to 11%.
While Wieting is not predicting another equities gusher this year, he still thinks U.S. large-cap equities will grow by an additional 9% to 10%, with dividends reinvested. Generally, however, upward-trending markets like the U.S. and Japan are nearing their historic averages and maturity from a valuation standpoint, he says, while emerging markets remain unattractive. The commodity super-cycle – that realized ten years of double-digit annual growth in emerging markets– is coming to an end. European equities are the most attractive of the lot and Citi expects them to grow 13% next year.
The prices for real estate are going up everywhere – but in high-end New York.
Real estate prices in major metropolitan areas popped this past year, with San Francisco, Miami and Chicago up 25%, 16%, and 11% respectively, according to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices. Barron's colleague Jonathan Laing predicts a rise of 5% in the U.S. for the next two years.
One anomaly, in these across the board price increases, seems to be New York City. According to a recently released Brown Harris Stevens study, the average Manhattan apartment sales price declined by 2% in the fourth quarter of 2013, to $1,553,599, versus the same time last year. Inventory (existing properties for sale) is about 20% below levels last year, suggesting prices should be tight. They aren't.
Cultivating a family legacy is not that different from tending a garden: land with poor prospects, at first glance, has to be coaxed over time –patiently and carefully–until it has a fertile life of its own. Case in point: The Morris family of Pennsylvania, which nursed its garden into an arboretum, an estate that lives on even after the family mansion, the iron-manufacturing company that supplied its fortune, and the line of direct descendants have all disappeared.
It's a private park well worth a visit. The Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania meanders over 175 acres in northwestern Chestnut Hill, a quaint and leafy Philadelphia neighborhood of cobblestone streets and boutique shops. In 1887, John and Lydia Morris, brother and sister heirs of the I.P. Morris firm, bought the land. It seemed an unlikely spot for their botanical ambitions, an infertile lot with poor, quick-draining soil.
Out of this stark landscape, the Morrises not only fashioned the quirky Compton mansion, but pioneered a new kind of ornamental garden: Inspired by their extensive travels in Europe and Asia, John and Lydia created English park-style grounds infused with both native and exotic flora, overseen by a gardener and landscape architect imported from Japan.
By Hilary Johnson
The family office of Diana "Dini" Cecil Pickering, the 55 year-old great-granddaughter of George Vanderbilt, doesn't focus on overseeing the family's investment portfolio, but instead works at educating current and future owners of the Biltmore Estate, the largest private home in the United States, about their legacy and responsibilities.
Those responsibilities are considerable. Pickering's great-grandfather built the Biltmore Estate, one of America's grandest homes, a stunning 250-room, 8,000 acre Gilded Age work of art in Asheville, N.C.. It's the legacy in that stone manse that Dini Pickering and her relatives are trying to preserve and pass on, while her brother, William "Bill" Amherst Vanderbilt Cecil Jr., oversees operations and physical preservation as CEO of the Biltmore Estate.
To that end, Pickering just completed her 20th biannual family meeting, marking her family office's 10th anniversary. It's taken a full decade, Pickering says, to work out the family office's mission and goals, but finally it's come together. She, her brother, their spouses and children have policies and plans worked out, as the fifth generation, comprising her two children, two nephews and a niece, begin to take up the challenge of operating the Biltmore Estate.
"We've gone at a consistent rate, but not at a speedy rate," Pickering says. "It doesn't happen overnight, and since we only meet twice a year, it's been a process, but I feel very proud about where we've come from and what we've been able to accomplish."
The rest of us can only hope they are successful. The Biltmore Estate is a national treasure. The lavish mansion was designed in the style of a Renaissance French Chateau by Richard Morris Hunt; the grounds were landscaped by Frederick Law Olmsted. The home itself shelters priceless works, including 16th century Flemish tapestries, rare books, antique furniture, and paintings. It has 43 bathrooms, 65 fireplaces, three kitchens, and a 70,000 gallon indoor pool with a vaulted tiled ceiling by Rafael Guastavino. All this requires 1,800 employees, who welcome approximately 1 million visitors a year, each of whom pays about $60 to enter the estate. In total, the Biltmore generates $140 million in annual revenue, but about 90 cents of every dollar in fees gets reinvested in operations.
Written with Barron's wit and often contrarian perspective, Penta provides the affluent with advice on how to navigate the world of wealth management, how to make savvy acquisitions ranging from vintage watches to second homes, and how to smartly manage family dynamics.
Richard C. Morais, Penta's editor, was Forbes magazine's longest serving foreign correspondent, has won multiple Business Journalist Of The Year Awards, and is the author of two novels: The Hundred-Foot Journey and Buddhaland, Brooklyn. Robert Milburn is Penta's reporter, both online and for the quarterly magazine. He reviews everything from family office regulations to obscure jazz recordings.

Tokyo: Ausflugstipp "Nōryōsen"
Professional, although pleasant reasons it went last Friday on a fun boat ride in the bay of Tokyo. The 屋 形 船 Yakatabune mentioned, small boats I already knew – which are often designed with Tatami and hold for Trinkgelagene on the lake ago. However, this boat was different: It was a great, determined once occupied as a ferry boat for estimated 1,000 or more people. With large Norwegian flag on the chimney, but that does not necessarily mean, that the boat also comes from there. Resourceful businessmen have the boat now converted into a party boat: With stage, Beer and numerous food stalls. Das Boot legt, it seems like every day, vom Takeshiba-Pier (Near Hamamatsu-machi, Yamanote-Linie) at 19:15 and travels afterwards always back up the coast to the airport and Haneda again. With loud music on one of the decks, an admittedly somewhat annoying MC and hundreds of people in party mood. Odaiba, Rainbow Bridge, Approach path of the airport, gaudy industrial plants, etc.. – the ride is quite entertaining and takes a good two hours. The price is also more than civil: 2,600 yen pro Person, and includes All-You-Can-Drink.
Zur Information: It is called 納涼船 Nōryō-sen ("Sommerabendbrisen-Line") and will take place from 1. July to 30. September statt. Definitely next year. How it looks, many passengers seem to understand the whole as an opportunity for a bride – for romantic nights with your partner is likely that then probably but be unsuitable. Meet and celebrate people but the boat is a round thing.

RALEIGH It was only 11 days ago that the Carolina Hurricanes lost their fifth straight game at the Toronto Maple Leafs. On New Year's Eve, two days later, they were down three goals to the Montreal Canadiens after two dismal periods.
It was the lowest point of their entire season. It really wasn't that long ago. And yet it could hardly have seemed farther away Thursday night as the Hurricanes systematically picked apart those same Maple Leafs for their fifth straight win, 6-1.
How quickly they have turned things around, without Cam Ward and Eric Staal. It started with the five goals in 21:49 to beat the Canadiens in overtime, and the Hurricanes have only gathered momentum since.
While the NHL's loser point for going to overtime has escalated the stakes even at this point in the season because it's so hard to make up any ground in the standings, it isn't often there is this much on the line at this point in the season. This was one of those rare occasions.
As January games go, this one was freighted with meaning. Not only are the slumping Leafs and streaking Hurricanes jockeying for wild-card position already, but the Hurricanes were trying to win five in a row for the first time since 2010 riding the goal-scoring contributions of the NHL's hottest player, Jeff Skinner.
Tim Gleason was back in town with Toronto only eight days after the Hurricanes traded him to the Leafs for John-Michael Liles, Anton Khudobin was trying to lay permanent claim to the Carolina net and Alexander Semin had an Olympic snub to stew over (as did Eric Staal, who remains out injured).
Meanwhile, the entire team was happy to be back home after a trip to Buffalo that turned into the road trip from hell – "if hell froze over, I suppose," Hurricanes defenseman Jay Harrison said. The Hurricanes flew into a fearsome blizzard on Monday, couldn't get out Tuesday after their game against the Sabres was understandably postponed, then endured a 2 a.m. fire alarm and a harrowing takeoff in whiteout conditions Wednesday to get back for this.
It was an awful lot to cram into one weeknight game in January.
So what happened? A Gleason deflection ended up in the Toronto net for the game's first goal, by Zach Boychuk. Skinner scored his 17th goal in as many games. Liles scored against his former team. Jordan Staal scored short-handed. Khudobin stopped 25 of 26 shots.
Talk about a plan coming together. It was as dominant a performance as the Hurricanes have fashioned on home ice this season, start to finish. And it only served to underline how far the Hurricanes have come in such a short period of time.
Even in the darkest moments, Hurricanes coach Kirk Muller preached "stay the course," believing the Hurricanes were playing the way they needed to play to be successful, just not getting the results they needed. The Montreal game was a microcosm of this entire stretch, from unwatchable to unbeatable in a matter of minutes. The Hurricanes never looked back.
"We were playing good hockey prior to that," Muller said. "We just weren't getting good results. At that time, it was more about what we were doing to ourselves than what anyone was doing to us. We just tried to emphasize playing the same way and the results would follow. We're scoring goals right now, and it all just kind of came together in the third period against Montreal."
They persevered. And now they're reaping the rewards.

Animal care workers removed three dogs and as many as 80 cats from a Mesa apartment in the 600 block of West 10th Avenue on Tuesday after neighbors complained about the odor coming from inside.
Dressed in hazmat suits, the workers required the assistance of the Mesa Fire Department to remove the cats because there was more ammonia than oxygen in the air from the large amounts of cat urine and feces inside the apartment.
Scott Powell, 26, of Mesa said he called Arizona Animal Welfare League for a welfare check on a female neighbor after spending days smelling, but not seeing, the cats. The three dogs were outdoors.
"I've never seen a cat, but enough is enough," he said about the smell permeating his apartment since he moved in about three months ago. The woman, whose identity was not released, faces misdemeanor charges of animal neglect.
Devorah Young with the league said cats were running everywhere inside the apartment, including inside the walls, as she described efforts to herd them.
The dogs and the healthier cats were transported to Arizona Animal Care and Control. They may become available for adoption, pending the woman's surrender of custody, officials said.
A number of the cats were sick from their living conditions, said Miriam Carranza, director of cruelty investigations for the Animal Welfare League. Those cats will be cared for by the league and the survivors may also come up for adoption, she said.
Powell said they way the animals were treated "hurt" his heart, especially the dogs he described as "the best in the world."
"The brown and black one is named Harley and it's breaking my heart because that dog is so sweet and good with kids," he said.
The apartment will need to be gutted, said Rocio Gonzalez, who manages the complex.

When I was 13, my 7th grade science class was assigned to dissect a fetal pig. This made me massively uncomfortable. My teacher told us that we could opt out of doing the dissection and use approved online resources for the project instead if we wrote a convincing essay as to why we didn't want to do it. I wrote about the fact that human fetuses are used for scientific research, but only with the parents' consent, and you couldn't obtain consent from a pig; and besides, we weren't talking about important scientific research, we were talking about a classroom of seventh-graders (read: little barbarians) who had other resources with which to learn the lesson.
I was able to do the online project. The next philosophical step, in my thirteen-year-old mind, was to say that if I was going to give an animal the same dignity as a human being in this respect, I had to apply it in terms of my food, too. So I stopped eating meat on the basis that I didn't want anything to die in order for me to live.
That lasted seven years.

On June 28, 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Where are States Today? Medicaid and CHIP Eligibility Levels for Children and Non-Disabled Adults as of April 1, 2014
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) creates new coverage options through Medicaid and new health insurance exchange marketplaces that, taken together, provide assistance to individuals with family incomes up to 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL). The ACA calls for the expansion of Medicaid eligibility to 138% FPL ($15,856 for an individual or $26,951 for a family of three in 2013) in 2014, which would make millions of adults newly eligible for the program. However, this expansion was effectively made a state option by the Supreme Court. If a state does not expand Medicaid, low-income uninsured adults in that state will not gain that new coverage option and will likely remain uninsured. This brief provides an overview of current Medicaid and CHIP eligibility levels for non-disabled children and adults to provide better insight into the impact of the Medicaid expansion.Fact Sheet Read More

I have found Swanson's in Mega-Mart. Are they currently out? Mandi
megamart does carry it in the soup aisle. And yes, they are curently out. Keep checking back....
Don't these have a lot of MSG? Tastes good but... Q Mart when it was still open, had good stuff you couldn't find in Carrefour, Lulu, etc. But it's closed and some other supermart is supposed to take over the space. Is that open yet? If it is, then you might find what you're looking for there. ***************************************** Beauty lies in the eyes of the beerholder.
I note that Megamart has beef stock constantly but chickent stock ... not very often. Perhps I'm not a lucky shopper there :) Think2

How to Pack a Dude's Suitcase
During a meeting of the minds last week, one of my colleagues shared the story of how her boyfriend found himself in a spin class wearing a bathing suit. Why would he wear a bathing suit to a spin class? Their impromptu trip left him with little time to pack, that's why. (Also, I couldn't help but think, "Who goes to a spin class on vacation?")
So, if you don't want to be the girl who brings the dude in swim trunks to couples yoga, just follow this guide. It's based on a quarter-lifetime of travel experience and covers all the basics. When packing, keep an eye out for the things he wears all the time. Comfort and familiarity is key. Remember that and you'll pack him up right-nice.
A chambray or denim shirt is a great piece to travel with. It's light, comfortable and wears well on virtually any skin tone. Plus, it's a good option for wearing with swim trunks. It'll give him an elevated poolside look.

Aztecs not content to rest on laurels after beating Boise State, turn attention to streaky Falcons
Air Force at Aztecs
When: 12:30 p.m. Saturday at Qualcomm Stadium
On the air: NBC Sports Network; 600-AM, 95.7-FM
You might not believe it, but the Aztecs' celebration of their big victory over Boise State lasted mere minutes.
Ten, to be precise, according to San Diego State coach Rocky Long.
"Then I started worrying about Air Force," Long said. "I'm sure I'll enjoy the Boise State win a lot more in January. I didn't enjoy it at all. I started watching Air Force on my computer on the way home."
That's not just coach-speak, either.
The team has adopted that same attitude. There were no giddy grins from quarterback Adam Dingwell and center Alec Johnson when they sat in front of the media at Tuesday's press conference. It was poker faces all around.
"It was a win, it felt good, it was sweet, but come Sunday, it was over with," Dingwell said. "We watched the film. There were some things that we could improve on, and we've got to go back to work this week."
The two were so businesslike in their responses about the Aztecs' upset of the Broncos that one reporter finally asked why the team couldn't get more excited about the victory.
"Because there are two more games," said Johnson, still devoid of emotion. "Air Force is coming into town. For me, it's Senior Night and the last time I'm going to play at home, and that's big and exciting.
"I want to go out with a win this week. So what's done is done. There's a big game ahead of us."
What could go wrong if they get excited about the win?
"You overlook opponents," Johnson said. "You think about, 'Oh, last week was awesome.' But you can't. This week's even bigger."
Make no mistake, this team will not overlook Air Force.
The Falcons (5-4 overall, 4-1 Mountain West) are coming off a surprising 41-21 loss to Army — a team SDSU decimated earlier this season — and have been streaky all year.
But that streakiness is dangerous in itself.
Though Air Force lost to Army and UNLV, the Falcons have shown that they are good enough to hang with Michigan and beat Nevada.
Air Force is "a very disciplined, very tough football team that runs a very unusual offense that's impossible to get ready for in three days," Long said. "In order for us to have a chance to win, we have to prepare well and hopefully outscore them."
The Falcons run an option offense, but they're not a pure triple-option team like the other two service academies.
"They line up in the triple option, but they run more speed-option and toss sweeps and things like that," Long said. "The triple-option is just a part of their offense."
And that makes the Falcons tougher to defend because even though Long observed that Air Force "does a great job of pounding the ball and keeping the ball away from you so you don't have a chance to score points," the Falcons can, and will, throw the ball.

'"... Monkey Tennis?"1997-2002 Brit Com starring Steve Coogan as Alan Partridge, a failed chat show host and candidate for the most Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist of all time. An utterly loathsome, pathologically narcissistic and self-absorbed failure of a human being with a permanent sneer, an entire wardrobe of Pringle jumpers and an unhealthy fascination with 'ladyboys', Partridge, after a failed chat show in which he failed to get an appearance from Roger Moore, shot a guest dead, and punched his BBC boss with a turkey (Knowing Me, Knowing You with Alan Partridge), is reduced to the graveyard shift on local radio and living in a motel after being kicked out by his wife. The series took a close look at Partridge's life (such as it was) and his increasingly desperate attempts to get back on television. A second series was broadcast in 2002, which showed Partridge — following an off-screen nervous breakdown — as slightly more successful and a lot more smug. Other important characters include:

TechKnow is a new series exploring how the latest scientific discoveries are changing our lives, investigating controversies, and celebrating innovation across the world.
In the first episode, we explore the intersection between hardware and humanity - in a unique way. Advances in bionic technology are changing lives, and wearable robots are making it possible for paralysed people to walk
Phil Torres takes us to Colorado to meet one woman who is standing tall despite a devastating disability. Amanda Boxel was injured in a skiing accident 21 years ago that left her paralysed from the waist down. Now, with the help of Ekso Bionics, she can stand and walk again using a battery-powered exoskeleton that was originally designed for the military.
Kosta Grammatis takes us to Maryland to meet a young man who surprised the world by inventing a test that predicts cancer. Sixteen-year-old Jack Andraka invented a cancer screening test which uses strips to test blood for high levels of mesothelin, a protein overproduced in people with pancreatic, ovarian, and lung cancers. This test can catch cancers in their earliest stages where chance for survival is 100 percent.

Gear Review
Good fit, poor performance
Member since
I bought these originally becuase they fit so well, unlike many other brands I tried on. They kind of fail on the hill though. I find that the zipper on the back of pants allows moisture to get though and attracts ice and snow build-up (it might be better if you had the matching coat to zip into the pants). Also, the snow gaitor at the bottom of the pants is so tight I almost can't get it over the top of my snowboard boots. Love the fit but they're snowpants...they should be waterproof!!
Member since
what size did you buy? and what waist do you have_
Member since
My wife and I both love our volcom pants and yes it does help to have the ziptech jacket that matches up. Here is the deal, NOTHING is actually waterproof unless you go buy some kayaking gear that is made to be submersed in water. Nothing snowboarding will be completely waterproof because we normally don't board in the rain unless you live in the Southeast. Don't sit on the snow too long or you will be wet in any brand of snow appearel if it's warm outside.

2005: CNN & Headline News Post "Significant" Growth In 25-54 Demographic
"In 2005, CNN (+10%) and Headline News (+16%) are the only cable news nets posting significant Total Day P25-54 growth over year ago," the network said in a year-end ratings release today.
Quoting the P.R.: "This year, Headline News has registered the greatest growth in Total Day P2+ over year ago (+16%), while CNN is up 8%. Meanwhile, FXNC's Total Day P2+ growth (+5%) is being driven by the P55+ demo, as its P25-54 audience is down -7%.
Headline News' growth is very strong in Prime, up nearly two-thirds (65%) in P2+ and 54% in P25-54. CNN is up 8% in Prime P25-54, while FXNC is down -13%."

Visa, MasterCard See Gold in Prepaid
The deli patrons catch tossed burgers and drinks without a second to spare, as they move to the music in quick procession to the register and pay for it all with their Visa (V) debit cards.
The music screeches to a halt, however, when one unenlightened customer stops to pay in cash. People in line behind him bump into each other, trays clatter to the floor, as the man sheepishly looks over his shoulder.
"Life takes faster money," the commercial's voiceover says. "Life takes Visa."
The ad, which first aired in late 2006, lays bare Visa's strategy -- one shared by rival MasterCard (MA) -- of capitalizing on consumers' increasing reliance on plastic to pay for everyday purchases, rather than simply big-ticket items. Now, the two companies are looking to prepaid cards as another potential growth area, as they attempt to continue strong growth inside the U.S. and -- more important -- globally."The big vision is that ... people talk about prepaid in the same way they talk about credit and debit," says Elizabeth Buse, Visa's global head of product, in an interview with TheStreet.com. "If we're talking a few years from now, my vision would be we're not talking about prepaid as an innovation, we're talking about prepaid as the third mainstream consumer product." As the economy worsens, MasterCard and Visa have so far remained relatively unscathed. While financial stocks have tumbled from the ongoing credit crisis and housing downturn, Visa's stock is up 50% since its first day of public trading in late March and trades at nearly double the IPO price. Two years in as a public company, MasterCard's stock is up more than seven times its IPO price.

Out-standing from Elos
Ok I am done with the puns :-) In all seriousness I didn't know there was this much innovation to be made in the department of stands but this year I have seen a variety of new features. Now Elos, a company normally known for their sleek rimless aquariums, has put together a welded aluminum stand with a level of accessibility and sound dampening that hasn't been seen before.
First of all, the stands arrive flat packed (saves on shipping) with the front, back and sides already assembled. It's just a simple matter of bolting the four sides together. Once the frame is assembled the panels actually attach via magnets making it super easy to add and remove them for easy access to the sump. The panels themselves are also quite unique. They have the normal laminated panel but these panels also have insulation added to them to reduce noise! Available in a variety of colors Elos expects these stands to cost roughly double their normal wooden stands.
