I spoke with Brian one time in two months. After leaving numerous voicemails Rebecca returns my calls. She informed me Brian no longer worked thetre and she was handling my contract now. I called her every two weeks or monthy. She never gave me information on the progress of my sale. Finally in June of 2007 she informs me that I would need to send an additional $385.00 to have my package put in a group. I told her that Anthony had led me to believe that my package was in a group. I refused to send more money and requested my package put in a group. I have only talked to her once since. She said that Anthony was going to contact me the next day. I have yet recieved the reply. I have left a message to Anthony and Rebbeca daily and still nothing. Please help!! I don't know what to do and I have no income as of yet to use my timeshare August 19th. Weel 33.

Some might ask, why race a touring route? A simple answer is, because it's there.
The Transamerica Trail was ridden by thousands of cyclists in the summer of 1976. Called "Bikecentennial", these riders made their way from the Pacific ocean of Western Oregon to the Atlantic ocean of Yorktown, VA. This route is now the most widely used touring route in the United States. Known for it's hospitality in towns along the route, the route sees thousands of cyclists each year as it is mostly navigable year round.
Some might ask, why race a touring route? A simple answer is, because it's there. A more complex answer is this. The organizer of this race had planned for years to do a solo run of this route in a similar manner to most bikepacking ultra-endurance racing events and wanted to bring it to a larger audience. In keeping with the open format of most of these races, anyone is free to race. Ultra-racers, randonneurs, tour riders, gravel grinders, speed-tourists, and anyone who has a passion for taking on the open road in a speedy manner. You win by taking what you can from it. The route is estimated to be at 4400 miles covering 10 states. A good racing time could be any where from 15 days to 40 days depending on the racer's goals and experience.
This route has considerably more re-supply points than your average bikepacking race. That said there are still a few hundred mile gaps of no services, food will have to be packed and water will have to be treated in certain parts of the country. From Kansas onward water can be found at a greater frequency from local business.
The race will be tracked via spot satellite trackers at trackleaders.com.
Audio cal-ins will be posted on MTBcast.com.

Emmanuel Stroobant started his career at a tender age of 16 – cleaning dishes in one of the best restaurants in Belgium. Hoping to save some money to pay his way through university, Stroobant's first ambition was to be a lawyer. Whilst finishing high school and juggling between his night job, Stroobant took a liking to his working environment, and before long he was on his way to peeling, chopping vegetables and making salads!
At 18, Stroobant well and truly decided to take the culinary path and for 4 years, he was trained in several Michelin starred restaurants in Belgium. At age 23, he opened his first restaurant in his hometown, Liege.
After the overnight success and three summers, Stroobant continued his culinary journey in Australia. In 1997, Stroobant moved to Kuala Lumpur where he experienced the local scene and culture. Finally in 1999, Chef settled down in Singapore with his wife and founded Saint Pierre in December 2000.
Emmanuel Stroobant's philosophy shines through in his utmost respect for wholesome produce and organic ingredients of only the highest quality.
His definition of perfection lies in executing simple creations where natural flavours from the produce are given precedence. Thus, Stroobant strives to use only a maximum of five flavours and elements in his culinary creations at his flagship restaurant, Saint Pierre.
With his passionate approach to fresh produce, Stroobant is also an advocate of healthy eating and living, especially in the inculcation of good eating habits amongst the young. Stroobant is also a vegetarian by choice and an avid yoga practitioner.
In line with Stroobant's food and healthy eating philosophy, the Emmanuel Stroobant Group has grown from a stand-alone French restaurant in 2000, to a corporation of 7 restaurants and lifestyle brands, namely Saint Pierre, Shoukouwa, Rocks Urban Grill + Bar, Sque Rotisserie & Alehouse, Brussels Sprouts, Picotin Expressand Saint Pierre Market.
Stroobant is also appointed as the preferred service partner of Stamford American International School (SAIS) instilling healthy eating habits to the young generation. He strongly believes in promoting the importance of consuming healthy meals so that youth of today develop food habits that give rise to good health.
Emmanuel Stroobant also provides consultancy services to assist individuals and companies with creative food & beverage concepts, as well as food styling and menu creation services.
Emmanuel Stroobant is a Grand Chef of Relais & Châteaux, an association of luxury hotels and restaurants. His modern French restaurant, Saint Pierre, became a member of Relais & Châteaux in 2008. During his early years working in Kuala Lumpur, Stroobant was awarded the 'Best Expatriate Chef 1999' by World Asia Media. In the years leading up to today, Stroobant's flagship restaurant also clinched several awards such as Wine and Dine 'Best New Restaurant 2002', 'Most Innovative Menu 2002, 2004 and 2007', 'World Gourmet Summit – Award of Excellence', 'Best New Restaurant 2002 and 2003', 'Chef of the Year 2002 and 2006' and 'Restaurant of the Year 2007'.
Stroobant is an author of two cookbooks: Cuisine Unplugged and Vine Dining White, the latter of which has won the Gourmand World Media Award for 'Best in the World Matching Food and Wine'. He is also an Asian Food Channel celebrity chef with his own television series titled, Chef in Black and subsequently Chef in Black II.
Headed by Chef Owner Emmanuel Stroobant, Saint Pierre is a restaurant of timeless elegance, advancing bravely into the future with a 16-year history of dining excellence. Its superlative cuisine, beautiful interiors and team of talented chefs have escalated the restaurant into the echelons of international accolades. The restaurant is also the only establishment and restaurant in Singapore being accorded membership to the world-renowned Relais & Chateaux, a collection of 600 of the world's best restaurants and hotels.
Saint Pierre is the story of Chef Stroobant – a culmination of his life's search for self-knowledge. Here, Chef Stroobant leads you on his passage, through a sensual gastronomic dining experience, embodying his own journey and discoveries; where the art of fine dining is celebrated, and the rituals of the table are cherished and perpetuated.
At the heart of Saint Pierre lies essence-centric cuisine, the advanced extraction of concentrated, vital essences from the freshest natural ingredients to season dishes through the use of modern techniques and methods. Chef Stroobant's global experiences manifest in his culinary style – a harmonious blend of European techniques with subtle touches of Southeast Asia, bringing flavours to the forefront of every dish.
Currently situated at One Fullerton with an impressive view of Marina Bay, Saint Pierre now seats an intimate 24 persons in the main dining room, with an additional six in the private dining room – thus allowing for service of exceptional attention and standards.
Stillness... Serenity... Harmony
いらっしゃいませ Irashaimase (welcome) to Shoukouwa — your oasis of calm in the city centre, where you will savour authentic, world-class fine-dining edomae sushi experience, direct from Ginza in Tokyo.
Edomae sushi tradition dates back to the illustrious Edo era in Japan. Nowadays, edomae sushi chefs take pride in serving only the best seasonal seafood and produce, presenting diners with the purest flavours of the food with minimal cooking and manipulation. At Shoukouwa, the fresh fish, seafood and produce are flown daily to Singapore from Tokyo's famed Tsukiji Market.
The art of fine sushi is one that is contemplative and considered – like a Zen expression. The perfect sushi is a delicate balance of the quality of fish, proportion and temperature. The fish must be of the highest grade, undamaged during the catch, and very fresh. Ideally, the perfect sushi should be consumed within seconds of being served, with either chopsticks or clean hands.
Our Japanese chefs hail from this edomae sushi tradition, having honed their artistry and skills with years of experience at prestigious Ginza establishments. With no more than eight seats right in front of the chef's preparation table, our guests will have direct interaction with and personalised attention by our chefs.
Shoukouwa is launched under the Emmanuel Stroobant Group Luxury Collection in partnership with Japanese cuisine specialist Hanachiyo, who co-founded Sushi Shikon in Hong Kong, which remains the first and only Japanese restaurant in Hong Kong with the distinction of three Michelin stars. She subsequently formed a restaurant consultancy that serves clients throughout Asia, including the restaurant Mizumi at the Wynn Resorts in Macau.
We welcome you... いただきます Itadakimasu!

Fresh, Tasty and Healthy. Three magic words that single out Saint Pierre Market as the choice gourmet delicatessen for today's go-getters who believe in healthier eating without compromising on taste and quality.
Saint Pierre Market is an outlet like none other. The latest brainchild of Celebrity Chef Emmanuel Stroobant, himself a vegetarian, focuses on fresh, artisanal produce, with more vegetables and fruits, and less meat, as he believes in the adage that a healthy outside starts from the inside!
The Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health published five tips for sustainable eating: prioritise plants, minimise meat, select new seafood, look local and eat mindfully. With this in mind, Chef Stroobant has created a menu of hearty soups, delicious salads, gourmet sandwiches and wraps, as well as healthier sweet treats.
While Singapore is not a natural resource for raw ingredients, Chef Stroobant has purposefully designed and prepared the menu for Saint Pierre Market using some of the best artisanal produce available in the local marketplace – balancing these to ensure value-for-money pre-packed ready-to-eat healthier meals. No fuss, no mess.
The Emmanuel Stroobant Group is the official caterer for the Stamford American International School. The Student Café by Emmanuel Stroobant offers wholesome, nutrition-conscious menu for the students' daily lunches. Each meal is crafted according to the nutritional benefits needed for growing children. In addition, the café's mission is to inculcate students with the right eating habits from young.

Windows GUI Usage Guide
First things first. Handbrake does NOT decrypt commercial DVD or Blu-ray discs. It only supports sources that DO NOT contain any form of copy protection!
Third-party software is required in order to remove copy protection before encoding. There is plenty of software available for this task, but it will not be discussed in this article. Feel free to Google and research the various options available.
Warning: Please note that decrypting copy protected sources is not legal in all countries. You should consult the law in your own country before using these applications.
This guide will talk you through how to use install and use Handbrake. Let's begin:
Stage 1 – Install Handbrake.
Simply download the "Windows GUI" from the Handbrake download page then run the installer. It's that simple.
Stage 2 – Using Handbrake
When you launch the program you will be faced with the below interface. This is the point where you… DON'T run away in fear. It's not as scary as it looks.
Stage 3 – Selecting a Source file
Firstly what you need to do is click the "Source" button which will give you 3 options.
- Video File : Use this if you plan on converting a video file. (e.g. a file that ends with .mp4, .wmv etc)
- Folder : Use this option to select a DVD / Bluray drive or a Video_ts folder which is located on your hard drive
- DVD Drive Option : If HandBrake detects a DVD movie in your drive, it'll show the name of the disc and you can simply select this option.
Depending on what option you select, you will either see a file or folder selection window appear. Simply select the source or drive, and click the "OK" or "Open" buttons.
After selecting your source, HandBrake will scan it and setup the GUI for that source.
Stage 4 – Selecting a Title and Chapters
There is a drop-down menu named "Title:". You are given a list of Titles on the source. Select the one you wish to encode. (The one with the longest duration is usually the main movie.)
By Default, HandBrake will *try* to select the main title for your source. On some sources you may need to change this as it is not always the correct title.
If you are unsure which title to select, open the source in a Media or DVD player application and watch what title it selects for playback.
A good guide to selecting the correct title can be found at the following forum post. (While this is Mac orientated, the principle applies to any platform)
When encoding sources where there are multiple titles (e.g. TV episodes), you may wish to encode several of them. After you've encoded a title, you can simply select the next one from the list and encode it. You may also want to look into using the queue as this will automate the encoding process.
Stage 5 – Setting up the Output File.
Click the "Browse" button in the Destination box. Browse to where you wish to save the output video. Type in a file name. Click "Save".
Note, You can enable/disable and configure automatic file naming in the program options. (See "Tools" Menu > "Options")
Stage 6 – Encoding Settings (using presets)
Choose a preset from the Preset list. This will automatically setup the all the required settings. All you need to do now is press the "Encode Video" button and wait for it to finish.
Information about the built in presets is here
"Normal" and "High Profile" are good starting points for watching on your computer or TV. "Universal" may be better suited to mobile devices.
Note, although many of the presets are targeted at Apple devices, they may well work fine on competitor devices also. You can experiment by performing short encodes (Select a chapter range of 1-1 for example to encode a small part of a video)
Stage 6.1 – Encoding Settings without presets
You'll need to do some experimentation when setting options manually. It's recommended you start with the closest preset and adjust it as required.
You should look through the rest of the documentation on this wiki for information on what each of HandBrake's features do.
Stage 7 – Start the Encode and Queuing items
If you have a source with multiple titles, you can queue these up using the "Add to Queue" button.
Alternatively, you can simply press the "Start" button to begin encoding. This will encode your current job, and also work through any items sitting on the Queue.
- Encode times will be anywhere from a few minutes to many hours depending on the length of the video, the settings which are being used and the hardware in your PC.

Forums Lobby MASTER YOUR NIKON CAMERA Nikon D750/D700 topic #1184
D700 & D300 w'MB-D10 attached L-bracket?????
Tue 22-Jul-08 12:05 AM | edited Tue 22-Jul-08 12:05 AM by KFIELDEN
I am debating upgrading to a D700 and D300 combo, and getting just one MB-D10 grip to use on either body depending on my needs.
I was wondering if the same L-bracket would work keeping it mounted to the grip, and swapping the grip between the D300 and D700? It would seem that it should, but does anyone know if there is a size difference on the sides of the 2 bodies?
Just wondering.

I'm doing just this, one MB-D10 on my D700 (now) with the same Kirk L-Bracket I was using on my D300. It works just fine.

Skill Level Intermediate
In this movie, I want to take a look at another workflow example, where we will explore how we can work with our develop module panels and controls in order to improve the color, the contrast, and also the details that we have in this photograph. And with this photograph I think it's a bit more of a common scenario. And what I mean by that, this is an image that needs a little bit more work done to it in the basic panel in the develop module. Also what I want to do in this movie is share with you some valuable shortcuts that you can use.
Which will help you to minimize the lightroom interface. So that you can really focus in on the photograph and ultimately the details in the photograph as well. All right, well first, let's begin with those interface shortcuts. If you press the shift+tab key, that will allow you to minimize a lot of the lightroom interface. Press shift+tab again, and then you can bring all of those elements back. Okay, well, here we're going to press shift+tab so we can open up more screen space for the photograph. Then if you press the F8 key on your keyboard, that will bring back the panels on the right.
I recommend you Write those shortcuts down. Again it's shift +tab was the first one. The second one, for the panels on the right, was F8. The reason why this is important is because it really helps us to get into this mode or this zone of the art and the craft of working on a photograph. And this is a photograph that I captured in Rockport, Massachusetts. So it's one of those images that I captured, I was just walking by the scene. I saw this fisherman dragging his boat, and I quickly composed and captured the frame.
And I like the image, yet I don't necessarily like the color. Temperature or the, the darkness of the shadows. So let's make some improvements. Here we'll begin in the basic panel, and in the basic panel, we will just walk through the controls. I'm going to increase my color temperature by dragging this to the right. To warm up the overall color palette in the photograph. Then next I'll drop down, perhaps to the highlights and just darken those up, just a little bit there. For the shadows, I'll brighten those, so let's drag this to the right, and just for a moment, let me exaggerate.
Remember whenever we brighten shadow detail like this. We also will sort of unearth, or unsurface some noise that was hidden there in the shadows. So just remember that, that when you're working with that slider you want to evaluate those areas, which this slider is affecting. So I'm going to need to look at the bow of the boat here a little bit later. All right. Well next we'll had a touch of clarity, maybe some vibrance, and also saturation. It isn't that complicated, yet still we've done some significant work to change the way that the photograph appears, and what I find At least in my own work flow this is a little bit more typical.
Often I'm working on my images in this way in order to add some visual interest in snap and warmth of color like we've done here. Alright well ,after we've completed the basic work in the basic panel let's drop down to the detail panel. In the detail panel, one of our first steps is to zoom in on the photograph. To do so you'll either click on the image to zoom in or click on this warning indicator to zoom in to 100%. Then what I like to do is to pan around the photograph.
Just click and drag around the image. We need to evaluate the subject here, of course. We also need to see the shadow detail in this area and this area of the photograph, the water behind. And just make your way around the photograph to get familiar with the overall texture, the noise, and the amount of sharpness that you have in the image. Then drag it to an area where you can evaluate some important parts of the photograph, and start your work. In this case, I notice some noise in this area.
And kind of throughout the photograph there's, it looks like some texture on the image. I want to get rid of that. We'll do so by working with the luminance noise reduction slider. Drag this up but be careful not to go too far because then all of a sudden it will look a little bit smudged out. So let's bring this probably to around 50. The detail slider I'm going to drop down, lose a little bit less detail in that area and then contrast I'm going to bring up and contrast is the one which adds a little bit of shape or definition to that part of the photograph.
And we're looking to try to subtly improve the noise that we have in those areas. Also, it's a good idea to pan around and view some of the other parts of the photograph as well. And this is why having more screen real estate is especially helpful. For example, for a moment, what I'm going to do is go back to our previous view. Here I'll press shift+tab once, and then shift+tab again, which will allow me to bring back the lightroom interface. Notice that in this view, I have a much smaller window.
I can only evaluate a little teeny area. Of the image. Yet, if we use the shortcuts, which we learned, which were shift+tab once, and then F8 to bring back the panels on the right, we just have more screen space to focus in on these little teeny details. All right. Well, let's continue with our detail work. Here with our color noise reduction. I'll bring my color slider up a little bit and these values down. Then for sharpening, I'm going to bring my amount up and the details slider back down.
I want a lot of my little details to be sharp but not overdone. I don't want too much texture, I want to remove some of that ,so I have a lower detail value. And in the masking, I'm going to have a relatively low amount of masking as well. Hold down the option key on a Mac, alt on Windows, and click and drag this up. We aren't necessarily interested in full edge sharpening. Rather, it's more of an even sharpening throughout this photograph, to try to create an image which has a nice mood and feeling. It isn't oversharp or overdone, rather it looks natural and clean.
All right, well now that we've finished our work in the basic panel, we've done some of our work in the detail panel, which ,hopefully this time came a little bit more easily because now we know how these sliders work. And we get a feel for how we can work through the various sliders and make some adjustments here to improve the photograph. Next thing that we need to do is to bring back some of the lightroom interface. We already saw briefly how to do that but let me show that again. You press shift+ tab multiple times until it goes through the cycle of bringing back all of the interface.
Then we can click on the image to zoom back out to see the entire photograph, so we can evaluate it from a distance to make sure that everything looks good and that we evaluated and checked on all the areas that we need to check on when it comes to our details. And in this case, I think we've done a great job improving this photograph using our basic panel and the detail panel here in the develop module in lightroom.

Helo, I'm getting blank white on Duplicator settings.
Any idea?
Thank you
Helo, I'm getting blank white on Duplicator settings.
Any idea?
Thank you
Hey Pricklepantz,
Its probably conflicting with another plugin. Here are a few things to try:
1. Clear your Browser cache and possibly try it on another browser
2. Disable all your plugins. Check the Duplicator Screen to see if it shows. If it does then start enabling untill you find the plugin conflict.
3. You can also check the JavaScript console to see if you see any errors .
Please let me know if you are able to isolate which plugin it's conflicting with.
helo, thank you for replying.
Since it's a live site, currently unable to disable other plugin :(
I use all in one seo pack (which usually is the cuplrit)
when i installed on other wordpress, i can see settings page.
will update later during web maintenance.
Sounds Good! Looking forward to your results...

Mart is a very nice host and gave us some good advices.
The Apartment is beautiful and perfect for a short stay in Amsterdam.
It is a 15 - 20 min walk from the central Station or the citycenter.
Wonderful place not far from centre.
Martin, the owner, was vary polite and flexible.
Mart is a really nice host and gave us good advices for our stay. Furthermore his flat lies in a very cosy neighbourhood close to the inner city.
Great hospitality. The building is near to the Central Station (15 min walking). The house is shred with the owner. The bedroom is upstairs and it is clean, roomy and luminous.
With my boyfriend we stayed 3 days at Martin's place it was really good, clean, confortable bed, nice room and the location is perfect .
We were for 5 nights at Martin's appartment. It was the best choice we could do. The room is very quiet and the bed so confortable.
Martin helped us giving some advices about what to see in the city. He make us feel like at home.
The location of the appartment is really good (betwen 5-15 mins to the center).
Very good bed, nice guy, centrally located, 150 meters walking from tramline 3, (which is going to Museumplein). One point of criticism : From the Wimdu-site it is not clear if the host is present or not during the stay.
Martin is a very kind and helpfull host.
The flat was clean and very special. It is located near to the Centralstation, only 2 busstops away.
But we would recommend it only to younger people, because the stairs in the whole house are very steep.
Furthermore it was a little bit strange for us, that Martin was there with us all of the time. He wrote this in his advertisement, but we didn't expect to see him so often. In the end it was okay for us.

The Beast Hoard Of Madness In My Mind Demands A Toyota Cressida
The shrieking night in my brain grows louder as the stars shine bright above. CRESSIDA is its shrill call. CRESSIDA is that against which I have no power. CRESSIDA is what I require.
The shrieking night in my brain grows louder as the stars shine bright above. CRESSIDA is its shrill call. CRESSIDA is that against which I have no power. CRESSIDA is what I require.
You might be able to find one of these things rotting away in your neighbor's barn, but that doesn't mean that the original Mazda RX-7 isn't a true, glorious, flawed masterpiece the likes of which the car world rarely sees.
The Jaguar XJ220 is one of the greatest cars ever built. At the time of its debut, it was seen as one of the most disappointing. It all has to do with the cutaway above.
All of the great homologation specials — the BMW E30 M3, the Lancia Delta Integrale, the Plymouth Superbird — have all been discovered and cost more and more every year. Except for one. This is the Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution, and you will be amazed at its reputation just as much as its shockingly low price.
Today's Aston Martin seeks to cultivate a crisp, modern, James Bond in a very trim suit image. There was a time when things over there were more double-breasted, when they succeeded in building the most powerful (and possibly most moronic) car in the world.
The Porsche Carrera GT has always been known for its screaming wail of an exhaust note, not so different from an old F1 car. As it turns out, there's a very good (if complicated) reason for that.
The Ferrari F50 is often remembered as a flop: it was slower than the car it replaced and for years its styling was absolutely reviled. I think the problem was that the thing was built 60 years too late, and it's all because of that engine.
What makes rally so interesting it that the cars you see in competition are all street legal, and built up off what's on the showroom floor.
This is not an ordinary Alfa Romeo Alfasud Sprint. It's the Alfasud Sprint 6C prototype and it might just be the greatest car of the '80s that never was.
What if I told you that Ford commissioned a two-seater Mustang rally car designed and built by a legendary Italian coachbuilder that history quickly forgot? You'd want that car, right? Here it is: the '79 Ghia RSX, the coolest Mustang that never was.
With the departure of the hairy but golden-penned Mr. Lieberman, I have been passed the torch of the Jalopnik Fantasy Garage. It is with honor and deference I accept this great undertaking. I hope to carry on where he left off, bringing you the best of the best in this galaxy of automobilia. Unfortunately, my first…
At first glance, Davey G. Johnson and I are barely distinguishable. We both exist in the form of a blog called Jalopnik.com as thirtynothing writers with some degree (however forced) of literary savoir-faire. We're bearded, the same height, lovers of cigarettes, in agreement that Jawbreaker's 24-hour Revenge Therapy…
You have been warned. Anyone who votes against the Daimler Double Six 50 Sport Corsica Drophead Coupe's induction into the Jalopnik Fantasy Garage will be ceremoniously banned, without possibility of appeal. Sayonara. Auf Wiedersehen. Fugedaboudit. [Not really, but you get the sentiment — ed.] However, we are not…
Our first three Jalopnik Fantasy Garage residents possess on average the power of 477 horses. The 1969 Honda 1300 Coupe 9 has only 116 ponies at the ready. And its front wheels are of the driven persuasion. Still, I am advocating for the Coupe 9 to be included in our little 50-space Fantasy Garage. Why? Well, for one…
If you're a thirtysomething pistonhead like me, odds are good you once had a poster of a Lamborghini Countach on your wall. Most likely, the Countach spent the duration of your puberty sandwiched between a Ferrari Testarossa and Kathy Ireland. But you probably didn't have a picture of an Aston Martin V8 Vantage. And I…

If I need de-icer I would go buy a can for 6 bucks, not pay 291.45 for 24 cans. Sadly this is all started with a tarp order which was also a NIGHTMARE one quoted price, different price on bill.

We are grateful to the following sponsors, whose generous support help make the production of The Living Church possible.
All Saints Church, Chevy Chase, MD
All Saints Church is a biblically focused and fast-growing church in the Diocese of Washington. We seek to connect the gospel of grace to people of all ages in Chevy Chase and the Washington D.C., area. All Saints is committed to passing on the gospel to the next generation. We have an exciting Kids Church and a large Sunday school, and we partner with young families to foster a supportive and relational community. We hope you can visit us if you are in the neighborhood! (3 Chevy Chase Circle, Chevy Chase, Maryland 20815; 301-654-2488; www.allsaintschurch.net)
All Souls' Anglican Foundation, Oklahoma City, OK
All Souls' Anglican Foundation was established in 1994 by a group of parishioners from All Souls' Episcopal Church in Oklahoma City as an independent and duly registered 501(c)(3) charitable entity. The Foundation has as its sole purpose the perpetuation and expansion of traditional Anglican worship and theology. It has over the course of the years sponsored and organized a number of theological conferences and seminars with such noted speakers as William H. Ralston, James I. Packer, Robert Crouse, Peter Kreeft, Victor Lee Austin, Leander Harding, George Sumner, Ephraim Radner, Edward Salmon, Michael Hawkins, Tony Burton, and numerous other clerics and theologians. The Foundation was also a sponsoring partner in the development of the app iPray BCP. It is presently collaborating with the Prayer Book Society of the U.S.A. on a special educational project. (6909 NW Grand Blvd., Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73116-5001)
The Cathedral of the Advent, Birmingham, AL
Advent is a Gospel-centered church, with a "living, daring confidence in God's grace" (Martin Luther) permeating all our programs and ministries. Holding to what the Letter of Jude calls "the faith that was once delivered to the saints," this Gospel focus finds the Cross and Resurrection of Jesus at the center of everything. The most comprehensive summation of our traditional Anglican doctrine is found in the Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion. The Advent is a church wtih a heart for the Gospel, those who have not heard the Gospel, those who have been burned by the Church, and the city of Birmingham. Our 3,600-member congregation comprises one of the largest Episcopal parishes in the United States, and since 1982 the church has served as the cathedral for the Diocese of Alabama. We have offered a Lenten Preaching series every weekday during Lent for over a century, featuring preachers from all over the world; and our concurrent ECW Lenten Lunches program serves thousands of meals to raise money for Outreach and Missions. (2017 Sixth Avenue North, Birmingham, AL 35203; 205.251.2324; AdventBirmingham.org)
The Cathedral Church of All Saints, Milwaukee, WI
The Cathedral Church of All Saints has served as a center for mission, formation, and worship in the Diocese of Milwaukee since 1873. More than 100 saints depicted in the windows and statuary keep vigil over a sacred space that is steeped in prayer and incense. Blessed Jackson Kemper, the first Bishop of Wisconsin, envisioned a cathedral that would be a center for formation, ministry, and worship. All Saints' strives to live into that vision in the context of the 21st century. The liturgies at the cathedral allow worshipers to escape our loud and raucous world by offering a moment of transcendence. The 10 a.m. service on Sunday features a 30-voice choir that is unsurpassed in Milwaukee. All Saints' is also resident to five ensembles and hosts numerous musical events throughout the year. At 7 p.m. on Thursdays during Lent, the cathedral will webcast a teaching series on the passion narratives of the four gospels, by the Rt. Rev. Steven Miller, Bishop of Milwaukee. The cathedral congregation extends service to the community through cooking and serving meals to the homeless and inner-city residents, and through underwriting feeding ministries with funds raised at the annual Hunger Book Sale, which this year generated $20,000. (818 East Juneau Ave., Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202; 414-271-7719; www.ascathedral.org)
Christ Church, Bradenton, FL
Christ Church, the largest Episcopal Church in Manatee County, is committed to fulfilling the Great Commission. Weekday services are held in the historic chapel using Rite I traditional language and an east-facing altar. Three different styles of worship are offered in the nave on Sundays, dignified and beautiful to both eyes and ears. An additional service on Sunday in Spanish is at 1 p.m. The music program at Christ Church includes traditional organ and choral music, a handbell choir, a contemporary music ensemble, and a concert series featuring the Létourneau pipe organ. Christ Church has many opportunities for Christian discipleship. A men's group meets weekly on Thursday morning for study and fellowship, while Daughtersof the King and Episcopal Church Women gather regularly for service and spiritual growth. Other Bible studies are available Wednesday evening after the Eucharist and Thursday morning.Youth group members are actively involved in diocesan, provincial, and national church events. Our Lord's Pantry opens on Thursday afternoon and serves a cross-section of applicants ranging from the homeless to those who simply need some extra help. The Thrift Shop is open daily to sell gently-used items. All profits go to Christ Church Outreach. Serving in the soup kitchen and visiting the homebound are some of the other ways that members of Christ Church reach out to the community. (4030 Manatee Avenue West, Bradenton, Florida 34205; 914-747-3709; christchurchswfla.org)
Christ Church, San Antonio, TX
Unless you are really sneaky, you will be welcomed on the sidewalk the first time you come to Christ Church, San Antonio. If you fill out a visitor card, the preacher will call you that evening, and then send a letter, to say thanks and please come again. You will be invited to join others at the rector's home on the first Sunday of the month for lunch and relaxed conversation. Next is a small-group, eight-session course, held quarterly, to look at the most important questions from the gospel. And in another eight-session course, held in the fall, we examine the Episcopal Church's history, wsorship, teaching, mission, and spirituality. Out of this class, some are confirmed, others are received into the church, and others reaffirm their faith. In all events, we're serious about saying "hello." This is our mission at Christ Church: Drawing, Changing, and Sending People through the Power of Christ. We hope you take us up on our welcome, and perhaps join us in our mission. (510 Belknap Place, San Antonio, TX 78212; 210.736.3132; cdecsa.org)
Church of the Incarnation, Dallas, TX
The Church of the Incarnation is one of the largest and fastest-growing churches in the Episcopal Church. With creative programs for kids, students, couples, families, and seniors, Incarnation has become a magnet, especially for college students and young professionals. Enthusiastically traditional in its teaching and preaching, the church over the past three years has seen 20 parishioners come forward with a call to Holy Orders. To accommodate the growth of the parish and to expand its ministries among the poor, the parish raised over $27 million in a recent capital campaign. A new welcome center, education building, and contemporary worship chapel are scheduled to open in late September. Incarnation's seven Sunday services include two Rite I Choral Eucharists, three Rite II Contemporary Uptown services with an outstanding contemporary band, and Choral Evensong. Strongly committed to living for others, the church runs a wide variety of social programs, investing over $1 million in outreach support to the poor each year, helping local children, the homeless, and those in need around the globe via missions. When in Dallas, drop by and visit us — we'd love to meet you!(3966 McKinney Ave., Dallas, Texas 75204; 214-521-5101; www.incarnation.org • facebook.com/IncarnationDFW • twitter.com/IncarnationDFW)
The Church of the Redeemer, Sarasota, FL
Whether you live in sunny Sarasota year-round, stay here seasonally, or are visiting this beautiful city on Florida's "cultural coast" for the first time on business or pleasure, the Church of the Redeemer, situated on Sarasota's vibrant downtown bayfront, invites and welcomes all to worship with us. Known for its rich liturgical life and as a family church devoted to worship and service, Redeemer offers Sunday worship at 7:30, 9, and 11 a.m., and Spanish Mass at 1 p.m. Contemporary Mass is at 5:30 p.m. Saturday. Weekdays, Mass is said daily at 10 a.m., with additional Masses offered Wednesday, 7:30 a.m., and Thursday, 5:30 p.m. During Florida's fall, winter and spring "season" months, Redeemer is abundant with activity, including world-class musicians and concerts, Evensong, Bible study, discussion groups, education classes for adults, youth and children, movie nights, beach parties, parish dinners, and many other opportunities for fellowship. We welcome you to our parish! The Rev. Fredrick A. Robinson, rector. (222 South Palm Ave., Sarasota, Florida 34236; 941-955-4263; www.redeemersarasota.org; Facebook.com/RedeemerSarasota

Founded in 1939, the Church of St. John the Divine in Houston, Texas, is a multi-generational, vibrant Episcopal community of believers. With the proclamation "Here I am, Lord. Send me!" we strive to affect the lives of our parishioners as well as our local community and the world. To that end, St. John the Divine actively supports over 50 local organizations and over 10 world missions, and is directly involved with every ministry we support This February, St. John the Divine set aside a "Faith in Action Weekend." Parishioners participated in many service projects on and off campus to serve both the local and global communities. Crosses and advent trees were made for children in Guatemala, Bolivia, Nepal, Haiti, and Africa; lovies were sewn for young children facing surgery at medical missions; clergy stoles were crafted for churches in Pakistan; and more. Additionally, parishioners participated in five service projects within the Houston community, serving lunches to the homeless, connecting with children in crisis and grief groups, and working in a community garden in Houston's Third Ward alongside families who garden there. As St. John the Divine continues to fulfill its mission of Changing Lives for God in Christ, we recognize that everything we do has one basic purpose: to affect people's lives in such a way as to deepen their relationship with God as he uniquely is known in Jesus Christ.

Samuel Johnson Howard was elected the eighth Bishop of Florida in 2004, in the wake of the 2003 ordination of Gene Robinson and subsequent General Convention resolutions that have dealt openly with human sexuality. Bishop Howard''s ministry of reconciliation guided the diocese through this period of controversy. The Diocese of Florida has been a national leader and long-term contributor to the rebuilding effort in Mississippi following Hurricane Katrina.

The ministry of responding to the pastoral needs of prisoners and ex-offenders was aided by a new partnership between the Diocese of Florida and Prisoners of Christ. In 2006 the Snell-McCarty Youth Pavilion was dedicated at The Bishop Edwin G. Weed Camp and The Bishop Frank S. Cerveny Conference Center. Bishop Howard has renewed a call to service, Christian education for our youth and mission as the diocese begins the work of rebuilding congregations and "growing the church" in areas not previously served by the Episcopal Church.

Nobody wants WWE brought into boxing. Live music performances/concerts in-between fights and entrances are great.
I figured 50 would focus on live music before the fights. Guess I was wrong.

Not a bad idea..In Europe they have been doing those type of shows in boxing cards for a while.. I've seen full blown bands play a couple of songs between fights & even play the theme songs for the fighters as they walk in & I've also seen mini stages & cages in different parts of the arenas with girls dancing & lazer shows, smoke & fire works & all this type of entertainment has seemed to worked very well over there so ¿Why not bring it to this side of the world & see how it works out?..

50 Cent's entrance for the Gamboa fight sucked so badly that it even made Gamboa suck that night.
I cringed when the fans gave no reaction to 50. You're performing Hip Hop to Mexicans and Pinoys. The Mexicans cheer for that mariachi sh-t, and the Pinoys want to hear that Gangnam style song.
