  • Upgrades, Rebranding Designed to Further
    CRANKING UP ‘THE AMP’ BY LISA WHITE UPGRADES, REBRANDING DESIGNED TO FURTHER HEIGHTEN PROFILE OF ST. AUGUSTINE AMPHITHEATRE AND PONTE VEDRA CONCERT HALL . Amphitheatre kicked o its main-stage concert season March 1 with a sold-out show by Alabama, guests at the Florida venue couldn’t help but notice the changes. The 4,000-seat facility had been expanded by 700 seats, and a new food truck area provided fresh local options beyond the traditional concession stands. “We sell out a lot of our shows quickly, so we knew the demand was Athere and the ability to bring in bigger acts,” said Gabe Pellicer, assistant director of the venue and the adjacent Ponte Vedra Concert Hall, about the new seats. “We knew we had a lot of momentum, so we went for it.” The changes coincide with a rebranding for what’s now being called The Amp St. Augustine, including new graphics and brand colors and a fresh tagline — “Big Acts, Small Venue” — that echoes Pellicer’s words. The rebranding eorts are among a continuing eort to create a nationally known venue in a small market. “We felt like we ran into a fork in the road,” Pellicer said. “Do we create more revenue, more shows or a better experience? We’re a government-run venue that doesn’t have to chase prots, so we decided to make it the best we possibly could.” Owned and operated by the cultural events division of St. Johns County, The Amp hosts over 40 concerts and multiple community events annually, including the Saturday Farmers Market, held year-round, and the Sing Out Loud Festival, Florida’s largest free live entertainment festival and benet, held every weekend in September.

  • Hija De Tommaso I, Conde De Saboya
    REAL ACADEMIA MATRITENSE DE HERÁLDICA Y GENEALOGÍA DESCENDENCIA MATRILINEAL DE DOÑA INÉS DE NAVARRA. Por Carlos Robles do Campo Académico de Número Circulan por Internet varios trabajos que presentan la descendencia matrilineal de Adelaide de Béziers, haciendo descender de esta señora a doña Juana Núñez de Lara, pretendiéndola hija de doña Teresa Diaz de Haro, cuando en realidad su madre fue doña Teresa Álvarez de Azagra. Con objeto de corregir tal error, que ya ha sido denunciado en otras ocasiones por grandes genealogistas como Szabolcs de Vajay, presento este trabajo que intenta mostrar toda la descendencia femenina, por líneas exclusivamente femeninas de la antepasada más antigua conocida de S.M. la Reina Doña Sofía de España. Componen esta familia, al menos, 737 mujeres de las cuales 98 viven en la actualidad. Entre ellas podemos encontrar 140 soberanas o soberanas consortes, 11 emperatrices (dos de ellas propietarias : Catalina II, Emperatriz de Rusia y Victoria I, Reina de Gran Bretaña y Emperatriz de la India), 42 reinas (cuatro propietarias : Blanca y Leonor de Navarra, Cristina de Suecia y María I de Portugal), 10 reinas consortes de España, 6 de Francia, 4 de Polonia, 3 de Suecia y 2 de Portugal.), 3 grandes duquesas soberanas consortes, 8 princesas electrices soberanas consortes, 24 duquesas soberanas consortes y otras 26 duquesas reinantes del Sacro Imperio, 2 archiduquesas-condesas reinantes de Tirol consortes, 4 princesas soberanas consortes, 50 princesas reinantes consortes del Sacro Imperio, 2 marquesas reinantes y 31 Condesas reinantes del SI.
