NotedDerk, pairsprowlin666 and myself fakeskate at not one, but two LOVE Park remakes (made by TaxableApples and chiliFRAT) in Skate 3. The remakes are both fairly accurate in scale and are very fun to skate! (BOOKMARK LINKS FOR BOTH PARKS ARE LOCATED BELOW!!!!) A few months back, the three of us wanted to make a LOVE Park tribute video at chiliFRAT’s version but it never happened. Derk and I had some clips at that place for a long time, then Prowlin showed me TaxableApples’ newer version of this legendary spot. We couldn’t pick which remake was better so we decided to make the video at both spots! And we chose the song with the locals in mind… Philadelphia hip-hop! Enjoy our virtual tribute to one of the most famous pieces of skateboarding history: LOVE Park! Comment and let us know what you think. chiliFRAT’s LOVE Park Remake: skate.ea.com TaxableApples’ LOVE Park Remake: skate.ea.com Love Park (official name: JFK Plaza) is a plaza located in Center City, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The large space, granite surfaces, and curved steps made the plaza attractive to skateboarding and in the 1980s it became a popular location for skateboarders. In the 1990s, LOVE Park’s international reputation as a skateboarding locale had been strengthened by the successes of some of its most famous users. Internationally known professional skateboarders like Bam Margera, Stevie Williams, Josh … Video Rating: 4 / 5

DVD: www.amazon.com thefilmarchive.org Raquel Welch (born September 5, 1940) is an American actress, author and sex symbol. In 1959, Welch played the title role in The Ramona Pageant, a yearly outdoor play at Hemet, California, which is based on the novel Ramona by Helen Hunt Jackson and Bob Biloe. She became a weather forecaster at KFMB, a local San Diego television station. Because of her heavy schedule, she decided to leave her studies at San Diego State University (then known as San Diego State College). Her first marriage broke up and she moved with her two children, Damon and Latanne, to Dallas, Texas, where she modeled for Neiman Marcus and worked as a cocktail hostess, intending to move on to New York City from there. Instead, Welch moved back to California, found a place in Los Angeles and started making the rounds of the movie studios. She was cast in bit parts in two films and in the television shows Bewitched, McHale’s Navy, and The Virginian, as well as on the weekly variety series The Hollywood Palace as a billboard girl and presenter of acts. Welch’s first featured role came in the beach film A Swingin’ Summer, which led to a contract with 20th Century Fox. She was subsequently cast in a leading role in the sci-fi hit Fantastic Voyage (1966), which made her a star. She was the last star created under the studio system. On loan out to Hammer Studios in Britain, Welch starred in the remake of One Million Years BC striking an iconic pose in a prehistoric … Video Rating: 4 / 5

Special report for research and historical purposes. orgod.org According to the religions of Judaism Christianity and Islam, there will be a messenger of God who will come to the Earth to reign over the people in God’s Kingdom. This is commonly known to be Jesus “Christ” reincarnation. But who are the individuals who are claiming this status on youtube?? Moreover, what is the Divine Plan?

The 2nd video in a series of 3, Scott Kettner’s PASIC 2010 clinic entitled, “Contemporary and Modern Approaches to Northeastern Brazilian Rhythms for Drumset and Percussion / Maracatu, Forró, Baião. For the complete clinic – along with a free 12 page handout detailing the rhythms and drumset applications, please visit: http:vicfirth.com/exchange/2011/07/11/northeastern-brazilian-rhythms-for-drumset SCOTT KETTNER When Scott Kettner looks at a map, he sees a direct line that connects the rivers of northeastern Brazil to the parishes of New Orleans and the streets of Brooklyn. A master percussionist, bandleader, producer and songwriter, Kettner is the guiding force behind Nation Beat, a band whose teeming, vibrant rhythms find common ground in the primal maracatu rhythms of Brazilʼs northeastern region, the Big Easyʼs funky, hypnotic second-line and strolling Mardi Gras Indians, and the unfettered freedom of big-city downtown jazz. No less an icon than Willie Nelson, who invited Nation Beat to perform at his 2008 Farm Aid concert, proclaimed, ” After I heard their CD I became a fan and I was overwhelmed by their music.” Equally enthusiastic was writer David R. Adler of Philadelphia Online, who described Nation Beat as ” a pan-hemispheric, post- colonial party; a rootsy rhythm riot, conceived in bright colors and infectious melodies.”
