It has helped influence the passage of national legislation, and may well have caused the stock of {numerous companies} to hit a 52-week high. It is hosted by Emmy-winning broadcasters {and field reporters worldwide} and appears on...selected CBS affiliate stations and {major cable and satellite networks, airlines, cruise lines, etc...}. Lending further credibility to the show are the heavy hitters who have appeared, such as Grove and Rockefeller, as well as former David E. Kelley Productions President Jeffrey Kramer and high-level executives from BOEING, MOTOROLA and IBM. Each potential spotlight candidate is screened through TVA's editorial committee, which is made up of "award-winning journalists, writers, producers, directors, editors, and P.R. execs..." |

The next time you switch a light on, give a thought to a new technology that turns wasted heat energy into electricity. The technology is called Add-Power. Owned by International Power Group Limited, it converts low-temperature "waste heat" into electricity, reduces the need for oil and has zero environmental impact. The company incorporates multiple technologies ranging from Add-Power to waste energy, which is converting commercial, hazardous organic and toxic waste into safe, reusable energy.

It may soon cost less to bring
a number of new drugs to market and both investors
and consumers have taken notice. The costs may
be lower thanks to a bio-tech company that contracts
with large pharmaceuticals and generic drug-makers
to control research expenses and safely speed
new drugs to the shelves. Called Holmes BioPharma,
the company says their first-year revenue is expected
to exceed ten million dollars---a mark other biotechs
can take years to reach.

Online entrepreneurs can cash in
on clutter through a creative new way to sell
personal items. The process, which makes it simple
enough for anyone to sell online, revives the
appeal of the auction format by gathering products
on consignment. This approach unltimately yields
sellers commissions on all items, not just slim
margins on a select few. Those who wish to sell
the clutter they have stored on E-Bay simply call
a toll-free number. An affiliate will pick it
up and when the item sells, the seller receives
a check and the affiliate receives a commission.
Zippi does the research to make sure the item
is priced to obtain the highest profit. It also
photographs the item professionally, which often
means the difference between a lukewarm reception
and a hot commodity. The company then writes the
listing and handles the packaging and shipping,
whether the item is big or small.

The
Real Indiana Jones |
"One rainy afternoon
an inspired 15-year old boy named John Goddard
sat down at his kitchen table in Los Angeles and
wrote three words at the top of a yellow pad,
"My Life List." Under that heading he
wrote down 127 goals. These were not simple or
easy goals. They included climbing the world's
major mountains, exploring from source to mouth
the longest rivers of the world, piloting the
world's fastest aircraft, running a mile in five
minutes and reading the entire Encyclopedia Britannica."
BWN spotlights “The Real Indiana Jones.”
