Noche de Navidad en la Ciudad de Weston


 Anoche Diciembre 07, en el Town Center de la ciudad de Weston, la organizaciĆ³n sin fines de lucro, America Community Center, fundada por Fabio Andrade y en su presidencia Harold Calle, organizo una vez mas un bello evento para dar inicio a las festividades navideƱas como fue:   LA NOCHE DE LAS VELITAS, una tradiciĆ³n de hace muchos que nace el 8 de diciembre de 1854 cuando se publicĆ³ la bula papal Ineffabilis Deus, que dio origen a esta celebraciĆ³n. La tradiciĆ³n viajĆ³ de Roma por el mundo y en Colombia se enriqueciĆ³ con cierto gusto familiar y barrial, porque si hay un momento en donde la gente se sume a sus vecinos en las calles, es en la noche del 7 de diciembre, que para la los creyentes de la Iglesia Catolica es la vĆ­spera de la Virgen de la Inmaculada Concepcion. Asi, son de admirar las creaciones que se hacen en Quimbaya, municipio de QuindĆ­o y el resto de Colombia, aunque no tan conocida en otros paĆ­ses Latinoamericanos.


Estuvo animada por Casandra Andrade, hija de madre anglosajona y padre hispano, Casandra Andrade, residente de Weston, es una joven profesional con gran impulso y trayectoria quien sigue los pasos de su padre Fabio Andrade, un actual e importante lĆ­der comunitario. Y Contando ademĆ”s con IvĆ”n Van HernĆ”ndez, polifacĆ©tico talento colombiano, quien inicia su carrera como futbolista profesional en su paĆ­s, modelo, presentador, tambiĆ©n incursiona como presentador general de noticias en Buenos DĆ­as Colombia y Weys T.V., de Miami, en la Radio IvĆ”n Van, tambiĆ©n realiza mĆŗltiples facetas: Locutor Estelar de RCN, Cerros Stereo en Colombia(MĆŗsica RomĆ”ntica), Comentarista y voz comercial en Colmundo Radio (Deportes), Locutor Estelar de La Radio Difusora Nacional De Colombia 99.1 F.M.
Y asi haciendo ambos presentadores dotes de todas sus habilidades animaron esta noche convertiendo este evento en una alegre fiesta navideƱa que cada quien se podƭa sentir como en su hogar.

Se presentaron grupos musicales de distintas escuelas de mĆŗsica de la ciudad de Weston, la coral del Cypress Bay, la gran voz del joven venezolano  Edward Mena quie nos animo con una bella canciĆ³n de navidad y nos deleito con la canciĆ³n: “Con mi joropo”, del compositor venezolano Enrique Hidalgo. La espectacular escena del grupo musical, La Tuna de Weston, que nos alegrĆ³ la noche haciĆ©ndonos recordar momentos que todo hemos pasado en nuestras fiestas entre familiares y amigos, tambiĆ©n estuvo el grupo Macaco entre otros.
Esperamos contar cada ano con este evento de las velitas uniendo asi a la comunidad latina de Weston y otras ciudades vecinas formado asĆ­ una gran familia.

Date:  December 2, 2012

 USA MMA KICK International Federation & Fighters Source™ will be holding a press conference on Wednesday December 12, 2012 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Opium Night Club at 1:00PM to announce the “Kick Off “ of the national amateur MMA tournament.   Frank Babcock, Renzo Gracie, Beto Nunes and Anthony Medina will be available for questions regarding the tournament rules and team selection guidelines.

 Fighters Source USA Team Prelim will start the national tournament on December 13, 2012.  Doors open at 6:00PM.  Tryouts and preliminary matches will be held throughout the Country for any and all amateur MMA fighters wishing to participate. 

 This union was created with the intentions of securing our beloved sport of MMA in becoming an Olympic sport. With this common goal in mind, Fighters Source League made history on September 22, 2012 hosting and uniting four countries in an international amateur MMA event in Boras, Sweden.

Among the participating countries involved were Teams Denmark, England, Sweden and the United States featuring over 50 athletes representing their countries. The Fighters Source League with coordination from USA MMA KI Federation will conduct a national tournament where the USA MMA Team Finalists are selected only after the athletes have participated in a series of local, state and regional single elimination tournaments, until our official teams are selected.

 In order to keep unity and consistency within the divisions, all countries will go through the same process of performing local tryouts, in order to evenly match all athletes in their respected weight class.

 The tryouts will consist of the following criteria: conditioning, striking, takedowns and grappling skills. These skills will be tested and graded by USA MMA KI Federation & Fighters Source senior instructors. 

After the USA Amateur MMA Team is selected, they will represent their country in the Fighters Source Korean Open in the spring of 2013, which will be known as the “Super Bowl” of amateur MMA. USA MMA KICK International Federation & Fighters Source will take this highly skilled team of amateur MMA fighters to the international stage to compete at the prestigious venue of Yong-In University in Seoul Korea. 

 Note: The first priority for selection will be your amateur MMA record and participation in “KICK” sanctioned MMA events. There will be established ratings based on your amateur record. 

KICK Managing MMA Directors:  Matt Hughes, Renzo Gracie, Bob Schirmer, Mike Rogers, Robert Hulett, Tommy Moore, Chris Lytle, Beto Nunes, Greg Nelson, William McGlothlin and Anthony Medina
