Richmond, VA (ContentDesk) February 14, 2006 -- Whether it be for food, fast cars or adventure, what drives Rachael Ray, Danica Patrick and Eileen Collins is passion.
Its that passion that has earned them and seven other well-known women to become the recipient of the Bodacious Woman Awards (www.BodaciousWomanAwards.com).
The new awards, established by former AOL insider and author Mary Foley, recognize women in the news who are exceptional role-models.
Valentines Day isnt the only day these women have passion.
Theyve got it the other 364 days of the year as well says Foley, author of the award winning book Bodacious! Woman:
Outrageously in Charge of Your Life and Lovin It!
Passion is what drives their success personally and professionally.
You cant make this up.
What these women did over the last year is amazing.
They are truly bodacious!For example, with already several shows on the Food Network, two best selling cookbooks out this year, a new magazine, and a new talk show in the works, Rachael Ray knows how to heat up things up in and out of the kitchen.
You have to have tremendous passion to do all that and do it well.Danica Patrick may make some mens hearts pound faster, but its being fast on the race way thats gets Patrick going.
She single-handedly revived the Indy Racing League (IRL) by earning her way to race in the Indy 500.
The result was fourth place and the IRL rookie of the year.Eileen Collins passion for adventure and exploration led to her being the first female Commander of a space shuttle expedition.
Her most recent command had the added pressure and significance as the fist shuttle flight since the re-entry breakup of the shuttle Columbia.In addition to Ray, Patrick and Collins, there are seven other Bodacious Woman Award Winners including the rebounding Martha Stewart, eBays CEO Margaret Whitman, retired Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day OConnor, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, talk-show host and dancer groover Ellen DeGeneres, Actress Geena Davis, and Professional Golfer Michelle Wie.All ten of these women are inspiring.
They affirm and move us! says Foley, who created the website www.BodaciousWomanAwards.com to show all the award winners and encourages others to post comments. Not only do I want to encourage these ten women to keep being bodacious, I also want to point thousands of other women to their example.Mary Foley is author of Bodacious! Woman:
Outrageously in Charge of Your Life and Lovin It!, winner of an honorable mention as One of the 10 Best Outstanding Books of the Year in 2005 by the Independent Publishers Association.
During her decade long career at America Online where she started as an $8 an hour customer service rep and rose to the head of corporate training, Mary transformed from a good girl to a Bodacious Woman.
Marys mission is to inspire millions of women to be bodacious in their lives, businesses, and careers through her company Bodacious! Ventures (www.GoBodacious.com)..

Are Hybrid Cars the Solution to Rising Gas Prices?
(ContentDesk) September 23, 2005 -- "Consumers are buying hybrid cars," reports NBC news correspondent, Anne Thompson. "Some because of high gas prices, others because hybrids are kinder to the environment. Either way, Americans are getting into hybrids."With gas prices setting all-time records and rapidly approaching $3/gallon in many US cities, motorists are outraged and looking for some relief. Though reluctant to embrace hybrid cars because of their higher price and relative short time on the market, these new breed of autos may be the best solution to the surging gas prices dilemma.However, are they all they are proposed to be?

These and many other questions are still on the minds of those who are hesitant to take the plunge and venture into territory unknown.Andy Grant and Taylor Reid, authors of the eBook, All About Hybrid Cars: Maximum Performance/Minimum Impact, saw the...

Tall Magazine Rates New Cars and Trucks By Available Driver's Space, not Available Horsepower
Tall, the only consumer magazine targeting the needs of men over 6'2" and women over 5'9", moves into 2005 with a comprehensive look at which of the newly released batch of cars and trucks can be deemed "tall-friendly." ???? The Tall staff ? ranging in height from 6'2" to 6'11" ? spent a full day at the November 2004 San Francisco International Auto Show inspecting every model on the floor.???? Unlike other new car reports, the Tall staff looked at aspects of the car overlooked by consumer guides, marketing specialists, and dealers ? but not by a discerning public. "How fast a car can go in 60 seconds, an engine's torque, its braking speed, how many speakers come standard; we ignored all that," said Tall publisher Everard Strong, who stands 6'9".
