I did notice that as well! I was a little surprised and obviously the Athletic Commissions have little more say than some may have thought and only when of course they choose to use it. Although I hate to admit it and do prefer most of the other big shows and some smaller one still some good fights with Tito getting beat as well as the UFC's one trick pony getting demolished by Cain Velasquez. Way to go Cain! Well deserved!
Funny how the UFC and especially Dana White use to constantly knock and almost demean other promotions for investing all their energy and focus on one fighter or another without them being qualified to fight much less being top tier fighters! And the UFC to date had really invested little to nothing in the then contender now Champion!
Well they now have potentially top paid fighter with record of 2 losses in 6 fights beat in devastating fashion. Although any in the MMA / fight game know Cain as top tier / first rate fighter he is relatively unknown to the outside regular world who now the UFC must sell on his credentials although they really took no effort before.
Way to go Dana! All your eggs on one basket! Don't get me wrong the best man won! And definitely well worth both the shot and the Title but I will bet this is not the way Dana thought this was going to work out!
But what can I say! It all good for other promotions and very good for Proelite! So Let's Get It On!
Go Proelite!
Casinos to put up $30M Annal for tourism Atlantic City revitalization.
By BOB JORDAN • STATEHOUSE BUREAU • October 21, 2010
TRENTON — Four casinos will pool $30 million annually to help develop a new Atlantic City tourism district, officials from the companies said on Thursday.
The partnership of Harrah's Entertainment, Trump Entertainment Resorts, Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa and Tropicana will be known as the Atlantic City Alliance. The partnership's money, along with estimated yearly savings of $15 million from regulatory reform promised by state lawmakers, will be spent on marketing and revitalizing sections of the city, officials said.
Those goals are in sync with Gov. Chris Christie's blueprint for Atlantic City, where the gaming industry lately has been drubbed by competition from expanded gambling in neighboring states.
"Atlantic City's tourism and gaming industries are critical to New Jersey's economic health and competitiveness," Christie said in a statement. "Atlantic City is at a crossroads and the stakes could not be higher. I'm pleased that members of the casino industry recognize the importance of this effort, support the recommendations my administration has put forward for Atlantic City and have stepped up with a meaningful commitment to turning around Atlantic City."
Mark Juliano, president of the Casino Association of New Jersey, said the alliance wants to see improvement in the "safety and cleanliness of Atlantic City's streets."
The alliance also will strive to attract more families and nongaming tourists to the region and bolster convention business, Juliano said.
"While the alliance's members are all competitors, we all share a common vision of revitalizing Atlantic City," Juliano said.

The Company needs to make some changes for it's fortunes to change! New Leadership with a New Plan would make sense right about now! And no Selling Stock to cover operations does not count as a Plan! LOL! Come on Mundus Make Something Happen! And quit dumping Stock because this is not helping!
This is Great Stuff! Stan is incredible and going to be taking this company and us along with him to the Big Time! You have to love the except from the article again with solid mention of POW!

Very much agreed! I know we have all tried to second guess a date but I do feel Stratus must have a Plan!
There gotta be something happening it been way too quiet! Maybe it's going to happen like a lightning bolt! None of us are going to exactly when it going to happen but we all will know when it hits because there is definitely going to be fireworks! Hopefully it's in a good kinda way! LOL!
I feel good about this week! We all have to hope there is a method to the Madness! Let's go Stratus! Make it happen!
Go Proelite
As much as I want this Stock to do well! I continue to be disappointed and it is pretty bad when an increase of 0.0001 is a 25% increase.
This stock needs to do alot better for anybody to make any money much less for the great number of us who have watch this ( I was going to say fall but that would not have done this "plunge" justice to any degree ) ROCKET into nothing land!!!!!! This company needs a New Plan! Because the old one is obviously not working and before others lose money with no hopes of return!
Great for the company and Great for US! We all need this behind us in order to move forward and hopefully to start the real Promotion of the company in a big way! We all Need it! I do believe it will happen and do believe Stratus needs and wants to get this moving! It can't start fast enough for me but I do agree that it will not take much for this stock to take off with many in standby and waiting for lift off! I think it's coming!
Go Proelite
Personally Dana makes me a little sick! He is so full of himself and really believes He is MMA. Think again Dana! MMA Existed long before you and will exist long after! The man has not even competed! Dana get a grip!
MMA existing long before him with many groups and organization that would have continued to exist with or without him. If you really want to give credit to the creators of commercialize MMA for the mainstream Thank Bob Meyrowitz and friends( Primarily the Grace Family ) who Owned and Created the UFC along before there ever was a Dana ( Dr evil / Lex Luther ) White.
Dana had two things going for him which you can't short him on being lucky!
The first being he had two childhood friends both with the last name of Fertitta who were part of a rich well connected family to fund the purchase and keep it afloat while the UFC continued to incur substantial loss and accumulated DEBT to the tune and in the amount roughly 40 Million Dollars under Dana's leadership bringing it to the brink bankruptcy as I understand it.
The second and ultimately second chance for him and the UFC again the family and friends( Craig Piligian, Frank Fertitta III, Lorenzo Fertitta and Dana White did participate but largely in very minor and again supporting role ) creating and funding a little but life and company changing TV Show and series called the Ultimate Fighter which ultimately saved the UFC from sale and/or Bankruptcy. Right time, right place and friends with money! Talk about luck!
While I think Frank Shamrock is a little or alot full of himself as well his accomplishments as competitor are well known and quite possibly second to none.
His accolades and stripes well earned with no less than 34 professional fights in the upper echelon of MMA with the top organizations internationally ( Yeah I know Dana White's history of MMA leaves out Bob Meyrowitz and the Grace Family as well as the all other MMA organizations but...That's Dana! )of the day and since including UFC, Strikforce, K1, Vale Tudo, Rings, World Pankration Championships, Icon Sport, WEC, Pancrase and EliteXC just to name a few.
He has competed with best of the best in the very peaks of their careers including the likes of Bas Rutten, Tito Ortiz, Cesar Gracie, Renzo Gracie, Enson Inoue, Jeremy Horn, Kevin Jackson, Vernon White, Phil Baroni, Nick Diaz and Cung Le just to name a few!
Dana White who again have you fought and how much money did you bring to the table! But you are lucky I will give you that! LOL!
The Lex Luthor persona and Dr Evil wanna be MO has got you by and gotten the Sport some attention but your time has come and gone and need for WWF/WWE type promotion is over! The lead should be by it's competitors past, present and future as it is with every other "Sport" and as long as that is not the case it will not be considered as such until such a time as it is.
Dana has now become a hindrance to the progression of the Sport and its development and reasonable public acceptance to continue its growth! The entertainment value is there and the recognition continues to grow without need for Dana White and/or his tactics and unjustified self promotion rather than the people who do put themselves out there, have and do complete. It remind of the early days of the NHL, MLA and NBA where the owners made all the money and yet contributed so little in terms of the product, the sport and its development. This had to change and so it did and so must MMA to grow!
Many company's have contributed to it's status and growth which have included Proelite's EliteXC, Cage Rage, Icon Sport and SpirtMC and there are some greet stories that need to be told and re-told with out the likes of Dana White creating, writing and re-writing of it's history as he see's fit.
Frank has continued promote the Sport and I think is as good an ambassador of the sport as anybody to this point. He is a decorated competitor, very knowledgeable and very well spoken, like him or not. While he should not be nor is the only spokesman, promoter of MMA he certainly sounds like the kind of guy it needs and more like him are needed for MMA to continue its well justified growth and in order sustain its future as a sport for the masses as it should be.
He is also a Shareholder in Proelite as I understand it! Let's hope he and others are on board for the new Proelite! In my mind great he has a vested interest in its future so why not!
Go Frank Shamrock!
Go Proelite!

VICON House of Moves Helps Bring NHL/Stan Lee “Guardian Project” to Life
VICON House of Moves (HOM), a leading motion capture and animation service company, was contracted by Guardian Media Entertainment (GME), a new joint venture between the National Hockey League® (NHL) and SLG Entertainment led by Stan Lee of POW! Entertainment, to develop animated content for a new superhero franchise.
GME will produce The Guardian Project franchise; compelling tales of good vs. evil based on 30 superhero guardians (one to represent each NHL team) told across a variety of content delivery mediums including television, print, social media, Jumbotron and more. The new venture will be introduced tomorrow at the NY Comic-Con convention during a panel featuring VICON House of Moves’ Director Peter Krygowski and VP of Production Brian Rausch, alongside Stan Lee, Chairman, POW! Entertainment, Brian Jennings, EVP Marketing, NHL, Adam Baratta, CCO, GME, Tony Chagrin, Co-Founder, GME and comic book artist Neal Adams.
VICON House of Moves was approached by GME with a concept by Stan Lee (creator of many legendary franchises including Spiderman, Iron Man, The X-Men, The Incredible Hulk, The Fantastic Four and others) and comic book character drawings. HOM took the original designs and turned around full computer generated (CG) finished animations built around each of the 30 characters. HOM directed and/or developed all assets including models, animation, character rigging, motion capture, lighting, rendering and final output.
“The viewers and fans are never going to expect how truly great this production is going to be thanks to the magic of VICON and the spectacular effects that they’re able to pull off,” said Stan Lee.
In just six months, the HOM animation team was able to turn around several animated shorts, the first of which will be teased at Comic-Con in New York, with a complete roll-out slated over the course of the NHL season. “This is by far the most ambitious project to date for both our mo-cap stages and our animation team. We’re developing hundreds of CG assets—from a film short to broadcast and in-stadium promotional clips and a host of other animated assets for delivery on multiple content platforms,” said Tom Armbruster, Vice President, Sales & Support, VICON. “It was an honor to work with Stan Lee, and to collaborate with the NHL as we’re all huge comic book and hockey fans over here!”
In order to accommodate a challenging delivery schedule, HOM chose to render final animation in the Unreal Game engine. “Our render time goes from roughly 1½ hours per frame down to about 30 seconds. With traditional rendering methods we wouldn’t have had time for iteration—and to develop such a breadth of characters in such a short timeframe, we needed to be able to march forward as quickly as possible. The Unreal Engine lent itself very well to this project because not only did it provide the freedom to generate a tremendous volume of effects very quickly, but also provides an incredibly high quality output. Because we’re delivering final product to a variety of arenas and broadcast venues—all with different playback methods (HD, SD, banners etc), a standard rendering engine wasn’t really an option,” said Brian Rausch, Vice President of Production, VICON House of Moves.

Frank Shamrock Blames Dana White for Negative Perception of MMA in New York
10/18/2010 2:15 PM ET By Ray Hui
As much as UFC president Dana White and the UFC have done to help build the credibility of MMA around the world, White is also one of major the obstacles keeping the sport from being legalized in New York, according to Frank Shamrock.
"The face of our sport is Dana White and out here in conservative New York, the way people think, bald-headed, tattoo'd, swearing people are just not a good representative of our brand and unfortunately people think that Dana White speaks for MMA, and they're confused," Shamrock said Monday on The MMA Hour. "They don't know he speaks for the UFC. They think he speaks for the entire sport and [they think] the entire sport is made up of Dana Whites.
"... I don't think it's all on him," Shamrock elaborated. "But we're entering a new era of social media and Dana is a very outspoken figure in every way, mostly with the f-bomb and all that. I'm a martial artist. To me, the art is the most important thing. I don't get the same thing from Dana, that's all."
There's a certain lifestyle and character of a martial artist and Shamrock says he wouldn't categorize White as such.
"I don't believe that Dana White is a martial artist," Shamrock said, never shy to dispense UFC criticism. "I don't see a martial way that he is following."
The importance of MMA for Shamrock is clearly more than just business and fandom. Shamrock struggled with a troubled childhood, becoming a ward of the State of California at 12 and incarcerated by 18. It was his involvement in MMA that Shamrock credits for turning his life around.
"I probably wouldn't have had the rough lifehood, I probably wouldn't have went to jail, I probably wouldn't have done all those things," the 37-year-old said. "Because I didn't have a way, a life, I grew up very poor, abused. I didn't know there was a better way. [MMA] is the better way. That's why I'm so passionate about it. That's why we got to do something for the arts."
To get closer where his voice will be heard, Shamrock in February 2011 will be relocating from his longtime home in San Jose to the Big Apple, where he plans on positioning the sport in a new light, one different from the UFC's, says Shamrock.
"In no uncertain terms, what [New York politicians] have said is, 'The appearance of the sport is something we're not ready for,' and the appearance of the sport is Dana White and the UFC because no one else has been here in the media and explain it and has credibility, who's done it," Shamrock said.
With competitive MMA out of his system after formally announcing his retirement in June, the former UFC and Strikeforce champ will continue announcing for Showtime as well as pushing his efforts to advance the sport. Thinking a makeover of MMA in the legislation's eyes is the answer to finding MMA a home in New York, Shamrock wants to step in as the man to do it.
"I know what the art is and I'm here to represent it," Shamrock said. "I think that's all we need. We need a different face."

Not Good! Does anyone else have an address for them ?
Not sure what your trying to say or what your point is! Hey but whatever works for you!
The Updates are primarily in the Share Counts reflecting current numbers as Sept 2010.
Yes and Thanks I have updated the Ibox with current information!
Not worried about the Share Price! When will they start to worry ? When the Stock and company is worthless ? When there out of business ? Does not seem like a smart statement or direction to instill public or investor confidence or interest in the company, it's products or it's Stock! I think the company needs a new Plan and maybe new leadership if that's the thinking!
I don't get it! But again maybe it's just one of those one's I am not suppose to get! LOL! There is just some things you just don't want to get and at this point I'm thinking this may be one of them! LOL!
Not good at All!
Continues to struggle moving down with a heavy decent into the basement of stocks! Trading at .45 today a number of times and bids in .40. Not Good! They had better come up with something soon!
Come on Stratus! Do something with Proelite!
All the Car Shows in the world are not going show investors a real profit that would be needed to bring this stock up! This Stock sat at $ 2.00 roughly six months ago and now bid in a .40 only 400 shares traded at anything above .45 and only 7200 shares Traded so far to day! This does not look good! You need a new Plan!
MMA is exploding with a real market and Proelite have a real product with Brand recognition. Do something with it! There is lots to work with along with huge room for growth and big Profits!
Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc. Appoints Gaming Industry Veteran Robert F. Griffin As Chief Executive Officer
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., Sept. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc. today announced the appointment of gaming and hospitality industry veteran Robert F. Griffin as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Griffin has also been named to the Company's Board of Directors.
Mr. Griffin, age 51, has 30 years of experience in the gaming and hospitality business. Since November 2008, he has been President and CEO of MTR Gaming Group, Inc., which owns and operates casino and racetrack facilities in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio. He became a member of MTR's Board of Directors in March 2010. Prior to joining MTR, Mr. Griffin served as Senior Vice President of Operations of Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. from 2004 to 2008, where he was responsible for the operations of 16 casinos and racing facilities in the United States, Grand Bahamas and the United Kingdom. Mr. Griffin also served as Vice President/General Manager at several of Isle of Capri's properties from 1999 to 2003. Mr. Griffin previously held senior management positions at Trump Entertainment Resorts' Trump Marina Hotel Casino from 1992 to 1998.
Mark Juliano, who has served as CEO and as a member of the Company's Board of Directors since August 2007, will be leaving the Company later this year to pursue other opportunities. Mr. Juliano will remain as the Company's CEO through a transition period that will extend until the time Mr. Griffin joins the Company, which is expected to be sometime in late October or November 2010, subject to receipt of required regulatory approvals.
Marc Lasry, Chairman of the Board of Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc., stated, "The Board is very pleased that Bob Griffin, an experienced gaming executive with extensive knowledge of the industry and hands-on operational experience, will be taking the helm as CEO of Trump Entertainment Resorts. At the same time, we thank Mark Juliano for his substantial contributions to the Company over the last few years. The steady hand Mark provided as CEO during the Company's successful reorganization helped position us well for the future."
Mr. Griffin commented, "Trump Entertainment Resorts has a great brand and strong properties, with many promising business opportunities. The Company has a solid platform for future growth and profitability, and I am very excited to be joining as CEO."

NJ's Trump Entertainment Resorts losing its CEO
Published: Tuesday, September 28, 2010, 3:58 PM Updated: Tuesday, September 28, 2010, 4:14 PM
Mark Juliano, who guided Trump Entertainment Resorts out of its third Chapter 11 filing, is leaving the company.
The Atlantic City casino company announced it will replace him with Robert Griffin, president and CEO of MTR Gaming Group Inc., which owns casinos in West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
He is expected to take over in late October or early November.
Marc Lasry, Trump Entertainment's board chairman, praised Griffin as "an experienced gaming executive with extensive knowledge of the industry and hands-on operational experience."
"We thank Mark Juliano for his substantial contributions to the company over the last few years," said Lasry, who gained control of the company during the most recent bankruptcy that was filed in Feb. 2009. "The steady hand Mark provided as CEO during the company's successful reorganization helped position us well for the future."
Juliano did not immediately return a call seeking comment Tuesday.
Juliano also serves as president of the Casino Association of New Jersey, the industry's trade association and had become the de facto face of the casino industry in New Jersey at a time when it is besieged by competition in neighboring states, the continuing poor economy and demands from the state's racetracks that they be allowed to install slot machines.
It was not immediately clear who would succeed him in that role.
Trump Entertainment operates three Atlantic City casinos: Trump Plaza, Trump Marina and the Trump Taj Mahal.
It is now owned primarily by New York-based Avenue Capital Group. Donald Trump owns 10 percent of the company.
"Mark was a wonderful guy, and we think the new CEO will do a fine job as well," Trump told The Associated Press. "They (the board) just felt it was time to do something new."
Juliano's exit marks a near-complete change of top management at the company, which in recent weeks has seen the exodus of high-ranking executives exercising buyout clauses in their contracts that were activated by a change in ownership.
The bankruptcy eliminated $1.3 billion worth of debt that had been choking the company.
Griffin's current company, MTR Gaming, owns Mountaineer Casino, Racetrack & Resort in Chester, W.Va., Presque Isle Downs & Casino near Erie, Pa., and Scioto Downs in Columbus, Ohio.
"Trump Entertainment Resorts has a great brand and strong properties, with many promising business opportunities," Griffin said. "The company has a solid platform for future growth and profitability, and I am very excited to be joining as CEO."
Griffin has roots in the company, having held senior management positions at Trump Marina from 1992 to 1998.
Juliano joined Trump Entertainment in Aug. 2005 as chief operating officer and became CEO two years later.
He presided over the construction of the company's $255 million, 782-room Chairman Tower at the Taj Mahal in Sept. 2008, the centerpiece of the company's efforts to add new upscale hotel rooms and compete with market leaders including the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa and Harrah's Resort Atlantic City, both of which had recently opened new hotel additions.

Yes absolutely! CBS still owns a 20% stake in Pro and any sale of such would have a to have been publicly declared for which it has not been and it has been noted very clearly that CBS and interest and stake in going forward! CBS in my view has always had Plans in this regard and those not include Proelite were and are built around Proelite!

Q&A with ProElite CEO Champion
Posted: Friday February 6, 2009 10:58AM; Updated: Wednesday February 18, 2009 4:58PM
SI.com: Could you discuss the deal with CBS?
Champion: Simply that we've resolved all of the differences between us and they retired all the debt that existed between us. And, in essence, they will remain shareholders on a go-forward basis as common shareholders with no particular extra rights with their holdings. They will not have board representation. They will not have super-majority rights. They won't have any type of control rights over the company
SI.com: They owned a 20-percent stake in the company before. Can you say what that stake is now?
Champion: It's the same. Their ownership stake in the company remains unchanged. Stock and the odds remain unchanged.

To be honest I have wondered about the relationship between Strikeforce and CBS. Although I have alot of respect for Strikeforce and consider it the premier promotion available today both in it's production and talent it has struggled with the general public and that relationship with CBS.
CBS have a large very vested interest in Proelite/EliteXC and great interest in Mixed Martial Arts as an exploding growth Market with a huge future. CBS and Proelite/EliteXC still hold the record for the largest single broadcast of Mixed Martial Arts ever and don't think that CBS has forgot that and that it's probably still on their minds with plans for the future.
This is very good for us!
Go Proelite!
Nope!!!!!!! It's all going up from here! Coulda, Woulda - Didn't!!! Guess we all could say that! No matter how much any of us have got at this point! I think we can all say it's just not yet enough knowing what is on the table at this point much less the actual announcements coming! I know the feeling well and all I could say is it could be much worse! Success is good thing and I now I think it's pretty much a sure thing it's gonna happen for POW! And any of us with any real holding! I am happy I have what I have but like most if not all we want more!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck to all!
Go POW!
LOL! Right you are! LOL! Somebody needed their Doritos before the weekend! Damn! I guess they didn't do the math because they could have bought a whole more Doritos and probably some beer, wine and probably champagne for the neighborhood if they would have hung onto those shares in the next little while.
I guess cash is king when you got the mobile home happening! LOL!
Go PELE
Glad to see this one is picking up, even if it is small gains it continues to climb which in any case good either way. I think it will get back to where it was a couple of weeks ago and far beyond in the not so far future as new information is released! Havana Heat looks like it will be a fantastic project sure to bring the company great attention, continue growth and revenue sure to push the stock price and company's future!
GO EFGU
Continues to be a little disappointing with Bids in at 0.40 considering in Jan of this year this was trading at well above $ 2.00. They need to do something and soon!
I am still here! Although not much of a Ra Ra type of guy I do attempt to post anything I do believe to be meaningful in any sort of way or general information as I become aware! I will post Good Bad or otherwise as I believe it is every investors right to know and will regulate information that is not necessarily useful and/or appropriate as I become aware of it but do value believe it everyone right right to speak as long as its with context of the Stock, the company or development! Good and Bad! My story is a simple one and the fact of the matter is I bought stock in this company like everybody else with high hopes and some thought they have a product and potential and to some degree believe and/or believed they still have both! What they do with it to a large degree is determined by leadership and opportunity.
The first one I am not sure what to make of it other than the fact I have watched by investment along with the share value dramatically fall to a point of being quite laughable so in turn have to question have ask the question has the Leadership done a good job? Base on the value of my shares and others, the quick answer is no! But...!!!
All we can do is hope that leadership is much smarter than we are have created and are aware of a grand Plan that we have no insight into and that in the long run this company and especially its leadership have best interest of the company and its investors in mind. One without the other is in my mind both dangerous and deceitful to which should treated as such and we can only hope that the process is in place to recognize and deal with them appropriately should either be found out to be true! We can only hope!
The second item is Opportunity and more often than not this is created rather than does it materialize, although it can happen this way with again the right product and/or idea at the right place and time, it is rare and it is more so the Status Quo that opportunity is created by anyone or any company that wants it bad enough and has right idea on how to get it there! Any person, idea, product or company needs to be aware of and how to execute a Plan on how to get that idea or product where it needs to be and hence successful through adoption!
They also must be able to repeat it and/or be able create and/or utilize other avenues for ongoing revenue generation to remain viable and generate not only revenue but sustainable ongoing revenue that is the trick and for that you need good solid planning and leadership to execute that planning! Do we have that it place ? There in lies the 75 Million Dollar question! I guess only time will tell and how much time? Not sure any of us know!
I still believe there still is indeed opportunity for this type of product and for that matter this type of company but am struggling with whether the other aspect is place to ensure success! Again all we can do is hope! Every day I say it can't get too much worse than this and every day for the last while and some time it does seem to somehow prove me wrong! LOL! Luckily my other Investments have been far more successful! LOL! I'm still hoping on this one, something has to change and I do hope to be around if and when it makes the big turn! So here's my best push at this point! It can't get too much worse than this and hopefully there are better days ahead! Ra!
Go MNDP!

Well, we'll have to wait and see what both will present us in future.
