History
"Ebon" is alias of husband and wife electro rock duo Justin Whedon and Melinda Whedon. Producing together, the duo swiftly caught the ear of the EDM community. August 2002 Ebon shifted their focus from the promotion of club and rave events, to the production of dark tribal house and industrial electro breaks. Since their inception, Ebon has also been creating a buzz performing unique and flawless LIVE sets around the Mid-West and as far away as Juarez, Mexico. Their first promo single 'Sleepless2' was well received by DJ's everywhere, and was soon charted in the March 2003 issue of MUZIK magazine by James Zabiela. Shortly thereafter, legendary house label Hooj Choons licensed 'Sleepless2' for Zabiela's mix CD 'Sound in Motion' as well as including it on the triple unmixed vinyl pack. In 2004 CP Recordings re-released 'Sleepless2' on the E² EP backed with 'Fallen' by Evan Marcus. Next, Ebon's Thermal Imaging Mix of Paul Lancaster's 'Night Vision' was put out on the limited edition label CPR White. Those two releases were just the beginning as Ebon has since released a multitude of tracks, remixes and recently conceived and compiled the 'My Life Remixed' CD, a Remix tribute to My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult released on Red Ant Recordings in February 2005.

March 2005 saw Ebon perform for the first time at Winter Music Conference. April '05 had Ebon performing LIVE one or two times a week all month long at club gigs, raves and even opening for My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult on a mini-tour promoting the 'My Life Remixed' CD.

Ebon recently finished the 'Can't Take It EP' which has a more raw, dance-rock sound. The six songs are all unique and vary from electro to industrial to indie-rock. They are also hard at work in the Remix arena as well having just finished a remix for Ladytron’s ‘Soft Power’, and looking forward to Remixing the likes of The Dandy Warhols and many other exciting projects.

This list is a project in the works and subject to revisions. It is called probable because of the difficulty to ascertain this list. Also to be noted is that Homo Sapiens or species in other dimensions or alien cultures will not be mentioned here for two reason: the other alternate infinite dimensions that is postulated by science would likely consist of a list similar to this. And alien cultures and Buddhahood are difficult to ascertain because they have not presented themselves to us at least not in a sufficient fashion and perhaps possibly do not exist at all. The definition used of Buddha is an individual that knows they are enlightened. The definition I use of a Bodhisattva is an individual who is enlightened and enacts great deeds due to it but may not be fully aware of it through their lifetime.

Halftime Heat was a special WWF Championship Match that was presented at halftime of Super Bowl XXXIII.

What Led To It
On January 24, 1999 at the Royal Rumble, the Rock defeated Mankind in a brutal I Quit Match to become WWF Champion. However, Mankind never really said the words "I Quit" as the words were prerecorded from a previous promo Foley had done reguarding the match. When the Rock distracted Stone Cold Steve Austin and allowed Vince McMahon to eliminate Austin and win the Royal Rumble match, McMahon decided to award the Rock the $100,000 he had promised to anyone who eliminated Austin since the Rock caused Austin's elimination. But Mankind stole the money the next night on Raw, and challenged the Rock to an empty arena match for the title.

The Match
Vince McMahon was the sole commentator for the match, and openly rooted for the Rock. The match was basiclly a comedy match with both wrestlers hurling insults at each other and brawling all over the arena
