Best Place for Aftermarket Jeep Grand Cherokee Parts??

April24

I need to find a place to buy some aftermarket parts for my 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee (I don’t want to pay dealer price for new factory parts) and I was wondering where would be the best place to go?

In particular, I need a new headlight and a window regulator for a passenger door. I really need them to look as close to factory as possible (particularly the headlight). Anyone have suggestions?

Grand Prix Glitz Draws Rising Stars

April12

Monaco always attracts the world’s biggest celebrities with its natural beauty and refined elegance. When the excitement of Formula One racing hits the principality’s streets at the end of May, top models as well as Hollywood stars and starlets come out in full force to enjoy the most glamorous race of the year; the Monaco Grand Prix.


Actors, directors and top models converge at Formula One racing events year round to bask in the glitz of the world’s most expensive sport. The rich and famous seem to love the high-speed thrills and excitement that surrounds the races, especially when the action is set in scenic European towns.


Hollywood and the Grand Prix have long gone hand in hand, since actors and directors often visit the race in conjunction with a visit to the Cannes Film Festival. The festival, which runs at the same time of year just north of the race along the Mediterranean coast of France, is an event that is never missed by Tinseltown’s A-list. For stars that also love to watch racing, a visit to Cannes usually serves as a prelude to the Grand Prix. For instance, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and George Clooney showed up at the 2004 race while promoting their film Ocean’s 12 at Cannes.


The Grand Prix and Fashion Unite event has recently become a fixture on the race calendar. The 2007 event brought together supermodels and socialites to raise funds for the Tereza Maxova Foundation, which benefits orphanages in the Czech Republic. The event featured designs by Isabell Kristensen, famous for her red carpet creations. Actress Bai Ling attended the event, as did German model Lena Gehrke and Czech beauty Petra Nemcova.


Famous Hollywood directors Luc Besson and George Lucas are Formula One regulars. The 2007 Grand Prix also brought Jude Law to Monaco to enjoy the action of this year’s racing season.


Besson typically attends most Formula One events with his friend Jean Todt, director of the Ferrari team. This year in Monaco, he played tour guide to French actor Jean Reno. The two worked together on films like Le Grand Bleu and Nikita.


Quentin Tarantino recently attended the European Grand Prix at the Nurburgring. When asked for his thoughts on racing, Tarantino said, “”I like all this pageantry that happens beforehand. The guys are trying to get ready to do a race, but then they have all this carnival just before their do-or-die time.”


While the Grand Prix hasn’t had a serious accident in years, the event certainly does get some of its allure from the danger of racing on narrow streets with tight turns and changing elevations.


The race is held each year on the Circuit de Monaco, which consists of the city streets of Monte Carlo and La Condamine and includes the famous harbour. It takes six weeks to build the circuit and three weeks after the event to tear it down.


Only two drivers in the history of the race have ever crashed into the harbour, with the most famous of the two being Alberto Ascari in 1955. Ascari survived the crash into the water after missing a chicane. The other driver, Paul Hawkins of Australia, ended up in the water in 1965. Hawkins crashed his Lotus and flew over the wall, after which he swam away from the accident to safety.


The race was founded in 1929 by Anthony Noghes, with the permission of Prince Louis II and sponsorship from the Automobile Club de Monaco. It has become one of the most important races in the world, alongside the Indianapolis 500 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The three races are collectively known as the Triple Crown.


The history and drama of the race is intriguing, as is the opulence of its fans. The rich and famous are treated like royals amongst the gorgeous cars in majestic Monaco at the end of May, tempting many top models as well as Hollywood’s brightest stars and starlets to take a trip to see the Grand Prix.

Next year’s Monaco Formula 1 dates and tickets information can be found at YourMonaco.com

Hotels in Monaco are often booked a year in advance, but the guide includes both hotels in nearby Nice as well as hotels in Monaco

Golf Like A Champion On Grand Cayman

April12

While Grand Cayman is known for its beaches and underwater activities, golf is becoming an increasing popular sport with locals and tourists alike. The small island now boasts courses designed by the likes of Jack Nicklaus and Greg Norman, while there are a number of other facilities perfect for golfers of all skill levels looking for a fun way to enjoy an afternoon. After you’ve experienced everything else this remarkable island has to offer, enjoy the Caribbean weather and scenery on one of Grand Cayman’s distinctive golf courses.

Featuring a rare 3-in-1 course designed by Jack Nicklaus, The Grand Cayman Britannia Golf Club is one of the most unique facilities in the world. All the action at the Britannia Golf Club revolves around the 9-hole championship course, a par-35 that rivals some of the best courses in the Caribbean. Making use of additional greens and tee boxes, the 18-hole par-57 executive course is built right into the primary 9-hole course. The most unique option, however, makes use of the exclusive “Golden Bear Cayman Ball.” A restricted-flight ball designed to fly approximately half the distance of a standard golf ball, the Cayman Ball converts the course into a challenging 18-hole 71-par adventure. The Britannia Golf Club currently offers regulation play every day and Cayman-style golf on Mondays and Fridays.

One of the most challenging courses in the Caribbean is Grand Cayman’s own Links at Safe Haven. Designed by Roy Case in 1994, The Links at Safe Haven makes incredible use of the island’s waterfront scenery and prevailing winds. Tucked against the breezy North Sound of the island near Seven Mile Beach, The Links at Safe Haven generally plays longer than its listed 6,605 yards. Constructed as a traditional Scottish links course with a par-71, The Links at Safe Haven features gently rolling hills and elegant open spaces, all set against the backdrop of Grand Cayman’s picturesque coastline. Even if you don’t head out on the course, you can enjoy an afternoon hitting balls on the course’s unique aquatic driving range or sipping cocktails at the open-air bar.

The newest option for golfers on Grand Cayman is the Greg Norman designed Blue Tip. Developed by Norman as a reinterpretation of the 9-hole format, Blue Tip has earned a reputation as a world-class course in just its first year. Though enough land was present to construct a sizable 18-hole course, Norman decided to develop nine spacious and difficult holes for his design – including five lengthy par-fours that play directly into the Caribbean trade winds. By making remarkable use of the undulating coastal landscape, nearly all of Blue Tip’s holes bring the sparkling water, natural mangroves and rocky hazards into play.

If you want to simply spend a pleasant Caribbean afternoon outdoors while swinging the clubs, The Sunrise Family Golf Centre is an affordable option. Featuring a large driving range, large practice greens and an enjoyable 9-hole par-3 course, The Sunrise Family Golf Centre offers plenty of great ways to unwind while on vacation. Measuring approximately 900 yards in length, the par-3 course offers golfers the chance to spend a few relaxing hours amongst the scenery, admiring Grand Cayman’s near-perfect weather. As the name implies, The Sunrise Family Golf Centre is also inviting to children and beginning golfers, yet remains a fun challenge for all skill levels. Golfers can simply show up ready to play and take advantage of low-priced club rentals and other equipment in the friendly clubhouse.

If you are unsure about where to play golf on Grand Cayman, ask the concierge at your resort for recommendations. In addition to possible discounts for guests, you will be able to find transportation to the golf course of your choice and schedule tee times with the help of your resort.
