Greetings On-Line Family
By now you must have noticed we have changed the format of
our "What's Happening" E-mail to provide you with a
more interactive Experience. We would also like to thank
all of our new Corporate Partners who will assist in the growth
of this interactive experience. We've set out to be a full
service entertainment marketing company and we are continuing to
achieve that goal. All of the links are active and
provided by Companies we have examined and decided to work with
because we feel they are interesting and would
provide you with products and services that you would
need. As you may know shopping on the
internet has become very safe and it is also very
convenient. If you have not tried it, once you give it a
try you will say "what did we do before we had the
internet" Since we are working directly with these
companies we will be promoting many specials, which will be of
great savings to you on products and services you currently
use. Please take the time to check out our Partners links
and support Arious Entertainment as we continue to grow.
We hope to build this into a portal for many of your needs as we
have done in providing information over the past
years.
This week we have added a one stop page for all of your
travel needs, we have many specials from hotels, rentals and
flights/travel packages and even cruises. Additionally,
you will find we have placed a great special here on this page
to the right from Enterprise rent-a-car which is offering a
weekend special with up to 50% savings on their regular price
for a Friday to Monday booking, so just click the link and make
your reservation now.
Again, I urge you to check out the last calling card
you'll ever need from "Pingo", it's easy to set up,
it's easy to re-load, the rates are very low and this all can be
handled right from your own PC.
Above we also have provided links to Arious Radio where
you will find internet radio, which you can listen to on your
PC. Both stations was launched recently and has had lots of listeners
over the last week/s, and we thank you for your support.
Arious Internet Station is still in the development stages,
because we intend to feature the music of independent, unsigned
artists as well as some of our favorite R&B, hip hop, and
Reggae artists. We also have DC Caribbean Connection Radio Station
included on the page, which is doing great. DJ Tony Carr
is featuring many of the hits from 2007 Carnival and lots of
really nice reggae music, so for all the lovers of good
Caribbean music log on to the link above for Arious Radio and
log in to listen
We have also added Arious Music which is our own On-line
music store. Each week we will feature many CDs which we
think you would enjoy. Currently, you will enter our
Reggae section where we have placed many of our favorite artist,
when you look at the menu to the right you will see we also have
a Soca and Calypso section as well as an R&B section. We
have also added a section containing the entire "Strictly
The Best" Reggae Series which goes all the way back to
approx. 1991. We have also featured the "Soca
Gold" Series, which goes back to about 1997. If you
purchase the entire "Strictly The Best" or "Soca
Gold" Series you will have most of the Reggae and Soca hits
from the last decade. Check it out and let me know what you
would like to see added. Of course we will be expanding
our selections on a weekly basis
todd@ariousentertainment.us
 We also have a page where you can purchase
iPODs, which as
I stated last week will be the way we will be listening to
music in the very near future. So if you have not gotten
your iPOD
yet, check out what we have listed. Next
week we will also be adding books and DVDs, so look out for that.
Next week we intend to add fashions, so that you will be able
to purchase clothing, jewelry, shoes, etc. from many of today's
hottest labels. Look out for that next week!!!
Below you will find Susan continues with celebrating Black
History Month. This week she features Mr. Mervyn Dymally
