|Flowers of some Passiflora series Laurifoliae.
Within the huge diversity of genus Passiflora, series Laurifoliae constitutes a strikingly uniform group, widely distributed in neotropical rain forests, at low to moderate elevations. Given its morphological and ecological unity, Killip mentionned it as an «exceedingly difficult» group. The lack of clear morphological criteria has not helped in delimiting it, and the confusion has grown with the addition of new species and criteria. As a preliminary step in the study of diversity within series Laurifoliae, we re-examine its morphological delimitation, assessing how its current 29 species (including the highly similar P. pachyantha and P. killipiana) conform to 20 criteria from different authors. Three criteria (indumentum on vegetative parts, stipule glands, membranous limen) appear to be irrelevant, because they are either too variable or rarely recorded in the species descriptions. Using the 17 remaining ones, 24 typical species show very limited variations, five of them differing by only one criterion. Among them, we retain terete to angular stem, setaceous or linear stipules soon deciduous, petiolar glands in one pair, leaves oblong, neither peltate nor lobate, three glandular bract over 1 cm long and free, flowers pendent, with two campanulate outer series of filaments (most other series much reduced or aborted). Five species, P. guazumaefolia, P. kikiana, P. odontophylla, P. ischnoclada, and P. maliformis, differ by three to nine traits, not found in the typical representatives of the series, so they can be excluded from it. Passiflora kikiana should be classified into series Kermesinae. For the four other ones, a satisfactory solution implies a more global study, involving other series.
Keywords: Violales, Malpighiales, Passifloraceae, Passiflora, Eudicots
Several diagnostic characters used by Killip and Cervi (indumenta on vegetative organs, glandular stipules, bracts rounded at apex (with reservation), limen presence and shape), appear to be variable in the series, so they can still be used to differentiate species of the series, not to delimit the series. As a variable quantitative trait, leaf width is also questionable. The criteria "campanulate calyx tube" and "tubular or filamented operculum" are characters shared by all species of supersection Laurifolia. We can also exclude them from the definition of series Laurifoliae. These modifications allow restoring a homogeneous series Laurifoliae, which could be defined as follows:
Series Laurifoliae — Plants glabrous to pubescent. Stems terete to angular, wingless, sometimes corky on old parts. Stipules linear to setaceous, early deciduous. Petiole with two discoid to oblong sessile glands (except in populations of P. popenovii). Leaves unlobate, oblong-lanceolate, entire to glandular-serrulate, not peltate. Bracts three, in involucre, free at base, more than 1 cm long and glandular. Flowers pendent. Outer series of filaments two, campanulate (most other series much reduced or aborted).
Currently, series Laurifoliae includes 24 species corresponding to the above criteria: P. acuminata, P. ambigua, P. capparidifolia, P. cerasina, P. chaparensis, P. crenata, P. fernandezii, P. fissurosa, P. gabrielliana, P. gleasonii, P. kapiriensis, P. killipiana, P. laurifolia, P. metae (when type effectively deposited), P. nigradenia, P. nitida, P. pachyantha, P. pergrandis, P. phellos, P. popenovii, P. riparia, P. rufostipulata, P. tolimana, and P. venusta.

This post was written by Richard Schrade, an attorney from Georgia and member of the Libertarian National Committee, and gun rights proponent.
The problem with all of the Second Amendment discussion is that very few people are willing to address this issue directly and accurately. The purpose of the Second Amendment is to protect the right to and ability to conduct an armed revol…ution. The Second Amendment was to protect the ability of the people to violently overthrow the government.
Even if one agrees with the "Militia limitation" on the Second Amendment, the Militias to which the Amendment refers were State Militias which would have been used to fight the federal government.
When viewed in this light, it is apparent that a limitation on automatic weapons would be an infrigment on the purposes of the Second Amendment. If we want to have an honest discussion about the issue of gun control, then let's frame the discussion correctly, "Should the people have the right to keep and bear arms that could be used to violently overthrown the central government".
Let's remember that this country was formed in a violent revolution. Let's remember that at Lexington and Concord citizen fired on and killed government solidiers sent by the central government to confiscate their weapons and arms.
If we are going to have gun control then let's not dicker around the fringes. Let those who would limit the law-abiding citizen's access to arms first repeal the Second Amendment. That would be the intellectually honest way to address the issue.

One of the reasons why linebacker Vontaze Burfict went undrafted last year was his habit of drawing flags for personal fouls.
Burfict picked up an alarming 16 personal fouls in his final 26 games at Arizona State, but overzealousness wasn't a problem for him after signing with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent last year. He picked up one unnecessary roughness penalty while playing every game for Cincinnati and developing into a worthy starter on their defense.
While it wasn't a problem last year, coach Marvin Lewis still is careful to make sure that Burfict knows when his aggressiveness comes close to crossing the line. Lewis chewed out Burfict after a play at one of the team's joint practices with the Falcons that saw the linebacker jump on Falcons running back Steven Jackson's back in a manner that touched off a brief altercation between the two players.
"I told him if he did that to me what he did to Steven, I would have hit him with a two by four," Lewis said, via the Bengals website. "Steven should have gotten him in his sleep last night."
Burfict said he felt he controlled himself in a confrontation he thinks was caused by Jackson's running style, but Lewis obviously felt there was still value in offering a reminder that Burfict can't stop doing what he did to overcome his draft day nightmare now that he's established that he can be a productive NFL player.

The Membership Relations Committee is happy to showcase some ArkGeo Geocachers through the "Geocacher Profile". The committee thought Glynn & Sharon Simmons aka Flyfishingcachers should be the next cachers to be in the spotlight.
What is your geocaching name?
How did you choose your handle?
When we first began geocaching, we only used a short version of our name. After we really got into caching & started reading others logs we decided we wanted a genuine nickname too. We chose Flyfishingcachers because we both love to fly fish. We have fished for many years, but after learning to fly fish, we have not had a spin cast rod in our hands.
How long have you been geocaching?
We found our first geocache on January 28, 2007. We only found a few caches in 2007, we didnt cache at all in 2008, began again in January of 2009, and have been caching ever since then.
How did you find your first Geocache, and which one was it?
Our first geocache was Balboa HSV which has now been archived. We had a Magellan Sport trax gps that Glynn had used hunting. It evidently wasnt very accurate, the gps had us at GZ in the middle of the road. We just started hunting and was lucky enough to be able to find the cache.
Who usually goes with you when you go caching?
We usually go caching together or with friends. Prefer to go with friends, makes it a lot more fun.
How long will you work on puzzle caches before you give up?
I will try to work on them from every angle that I can possibly think of before giving up. I dont ever completely give up, I will go back to it and try again. However, some of them are very difficult for my nimble mind to figure out.
What town/areas have you most enjoyed caching in?
We have cached in so many beautiful areas, this would be very difficult to pin down. First off in our own state of Arkansas, the sights we have seen while caching are some of the best around. We love to be out in the woods hiking and have seen some beautiful waterfalls and scenery in the North Carolina & South Carolina area. While there are no actual geocaches in the Smokey Mountains, the virtuals take you to some beautiful places. Out west, the sights are breathtaking. Even out in the desert area, you have the mountains & plateaus in the distance. We have found that each state we cache in has its own beauty that can match no other. We are very fortunate to live in a beautiful country that has all these sights. Who could help but enjoy being outdoors and taking in all this beauty.
Do you do paperless caching?
Yes, once we actually found out how & got the proper equipment, we will never go back to the old way of printing out the cache page and just plugging in the coords.
What kind of geocaching rig do you use?
Right now we cache with a Garmin Oregon 450 and a Garmin Dakota 20.
Why would you recommend anyone else to take up geocaching?
You can see some beautiful areas of the country you might have never seen without going to some of the Earthcaches & even some of the traditional caches. Geocaching also gets you off the couch, out of the house, and getting some exercise. The people you meet geocaching are some of the best people you could ever hope to meet.
Where are you originally from?
We are both from Arkansas. Glynn was born in Warren. He spent his early years in Warren, El Dorado, and Pine Bluff. Sharon was born in Hot Springs and lived there until we got married and moved to Texas. We moved back to Arkansas in 1984, living in Pine Bluff, and then moved to Hot Springs Village in 1996.
In what states have you geocached?
Arkansas, Missouri, Indiana, Tennessee, North Carolina, Kentucky, Nevada, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Illinois, Mississippi, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, California, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Virginia, and Alabama. Hopefully, we can get a few more this year.
What was your first event ever attended?
The ArkGeo 2009 Annual Meeting. I will add that we met some wonderful people there who have been our friends ever since. Everyone was so kind and welcomed us into the group and was very helpful to explain everything to us. The geocachers we have met here in Arkansas since we have started geocaching are some of the best friends we have. It is just like having one great big family.
How many caches have you found?
We are at 3100 now. Have to log a few more to make our statistics show that though.
Which type of cache container do you prefer over the rest?
We like finding them all. Those little pesky nanos can be very difficult to find at times though.
What was the most famous cache that you have found?
Gorilla Stash in Arkansas. We have found some virtuals at famous places but guess that doesnt really count for a famous cache. lol
Do you use disposable batteries or rechargeable batteries?
In the past, we have used rechargeable. Now we use disposable mainly for convenience.
Do you enjoy hiding or finding more as your part of the hobby?
We like them equally. It is always fun to find the cache, especially one that is challenging. It is also fun to decide how to hide one whether to give finders a challenge or just a png. Then you have the enjoyment of waiting to see who is the FTF and what kind of log they will write. Then you have the joy of reading the logs anytime someone finds your cache.
Do you have a personal goal in mind when you make a hide?
Just to make the cache an enjoyable experience for the one doing the hunting or maybe a challenging experience depending upon what we dream up for that spot. On the cache runs we do, sometimes we try to change them up so they wont always be the same. But, when we are hiding specifically a number run, they are mostly the same.
What is your favorite type of cache hide?
We mostly like to place the more challenging hides, the multi caches, and the puzzles. We like to hide several varieties of caches to make it more interesting.
Out of all your hides, what are your personal favorites that you take pride in?
Deserted & How Did I Get Here were our favorites until we had to archive one and replace the container on the other one after the original was destroyed. Right now our favorites are our multi caches at the cemeteries and some of our puzzle caches.
What do you think the proper hide to find ratio should be to keep the sport fresh?
It would be great for all of us if we would all hide more caches. But not everyone likes to hide caches, as well as not everyone is a break all records finder. Hopefully, more & more cachers will be hiding more & more caches so there will continue to be plenty of caches to keep our game going.
How did you end up getting into this wacky hobby?
There was an article in the HSV paper about geocaching and there being geocaches placed in the state parks. This caught our interest as we had been talking about that we wanted to visit all the state parks in Arkansas. We decided we would look it up and see what it was all about. Looked to see what was in our area and saw the cache at the Balboa gate. Decided we would go and see if we could find the cache and see what this was all about. We were interested enough to find a few more through the first year. Life got in the way the next year, but sure am glad we started back in 2009.
What's your favorite geocache?
We dont really have a favorite. We really enjoyed all the places we went and the caches we found while doing the State Park Challenge. We have found some great Earthcaches that took us to beautiful waterfalls & other great places. It would be very difficult to pick a favorite out of all the caches we have found.
If money was no object, where would you like to go geocaching?
Everywhere. We still have lots of places to go & find caches. Would be great to get to travel the world!!
Do you like geocaching by yourself or in a group?
We prefer to cache in a group. It is a lot more exciting & a lot more fun than caching by ourselves.
How many First to Finds do you have?
Somewhere around 30. We were really excited at first and tried to get there first. However, living farther away from town makes it hard to get to the cache first. We havent found one in a while.
Are you a First to Find person who is always set on go and if so, how many miles out do you have your settings on to get notifications?
Tried to be at first, but that didnt last long. We live too far from town to get there before the locals.
Do you have any other hobbies besides geocaching?
We have numerous hobbies. So many sometimes we have a hard time deciding what to do. Together we enjoy flyfishing, shooting our guns, hiking, photography, kayaking & canoeing. Glynn ties flies for fishing, & reloads ammo. I knit & crochet. Along with all these of course, is all the time we spend on making geocaches and solving puzzles.

Another Trip Down Memory Lane... History and Old Stuff...
Tonight I was poking around on eBay and came across a copy of Ace Reid's Cowpokes Wanted. We had a copy of that book when I was growing up. I think the bank or one of the salebarns sent it at Christmas time. I must have read it thousands of times.
I also knew the Cowpokes from several magazines and newspapers that carried the cartoon and from the Cowpokes calendars we had from time to time.
The Cowpokes are Jake and Zeb. They are hard-working guys (most of the time) who don't have much luck. Their legs are bowed from too many hours spent in the saddle. Their cows are always bony, their fences are always broken, and their cash flow is always negative.
Maw, Jake's wife, is overworked, but don't make the false assumption that she's downtrodden. Every now and then, she lets Jake know who's the boss.
As a ranch kid, I recognized the Cowpokes as authentic characters with true-to-life problems, so it isn't surprising to read that Ace Reid was brought up as a ranch kid himself.
You can see a few Cowpokes cartoons at:
- Ace Reid and the Cowpokes Cartoons
- Rural Images Virtual Exhibit
- Google Book Search: Ace Reid and the Cowpokes Cartoons
I see that all of the Cowpokes books are available on the Cowpokes homepage and the prices are reasonable, so there's no need for me to get excited about bidding on a used Cowpokes book.
Ace Reid passed away in 1991 at the age of 66. I was sorry to read that.

How Open Government Is Helping With Hurricane Relief in Puerto Rico
Just weeks after Hurricane Harvey hit Texas, two more "unprecedented" hurricanes made their way to the southeastern United States. Although changes in Hurricane Irma's path spared Florida from the bulk of the damage, both Irma and Maria directly hit Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Hurricane Maria was particularly devastating for the more than 3.5 million American citizens living in these U.S. Caribbean territories. The CEO of Puerto Rico's sole electric company indicated that the grid had been "basically destroyed." Without electricity, communications were severely limited. In the aftermath of a natural disaster, embracing open government principles—such as open data, collaboration between citizens and government, and transparency—can save lives.

Modules Are Organized By Rooms
Macros & Events Are Built With Drag-And-Drop Ease
Here are some tasks you can automate with a macro in your home:
Dim selected lights to create a soft romantic mood. Brighten other lights when you want to read a good book. Control all the lights in a room to create different moods.
Impress your friends and neighbors with cinema-like lighting. One button can change the lighting for intermission. Hey, the movie is great, but it would be better if you had some hot buttery popcorn. Pause the movie and press "intermission" on a remote control and selected lights will brighten for you in a dramatic fashion. When you return from your snack bar, press another button and the lights will dim for you to continue the movie. This is cool stuff!
End fumbling for your keys in the dark. Press the button on a keychain remote and watch a path of light illuminate from your car, over the sidewalk to the porch, and inside your home. Then be amazed as they turn off minutes after you pass. Easily possible with when you create a "coming home" macro for your home. Your spouse will love it!
Kids scared of the dark? Set them up with a wireless wall switch near their bed. When they press a button, selected lights can come on in their room - and automatically turn off after 15 minutes when they are back to sleep. Use another button on the remote control to turn on hallway and bathroom lights prior to them heading to the bathroom in the middle of the night - and turn them off again after they get back into bed. Save energy and a parents sanity!
Keep the neighbor's dog off your lawn. Use motion sensors to automatically turn on the sprinkler system and yard lights whenever the neighbors dog comes visiting in the night. A macro will then turn off the sprinklers and lights a few minutes later. A few blasts of water and Bowser will soon learn to stay away.
Your moods change, so can the lighting. Synchronize table lamps, floor lamps, ceiling lights and wall sconces to create different moods in a room. When your reading, you may want an intimate environment with the light next to your favorite chair fully on, while other lights in the room to be much dimmer. But other times, you have guests over and would rather have a bright party atmosphere. And when hosting a night of entertainment goes late into the night, you can change the mood into an after hours nightclub at home. You can even control the warm glow from a fireplace!
Hundred of other macros can be used throughout your home, limited only by your imagination.

Last summer, if you've been reading here that long, I told you about my level 42 Druid stealing flames from the three Horde cities. Only to learn he had to be level 50 to activate the quests from those flames. "Till next year" means today! Yay!
You know the sound effect? From those game shows? When you get the answer … wrong. That "Wha wha whaaa" sound.
That's what I heard when I went to turn in the fires I'd gotten from Orgrimmar, Undercity, and Thunderbluff.
Say what? I need Silvermoon City's flame? How hard could that be?
So I flew up to Light's Hope Chapel. Then rode into the Ghostlands, making sure to pick up the flightpoint at the Zul'Aman entrance.
Then on to Silvermoon City.
Careful now. Kitty Mode full on. Sneak, sneak, sneak. Nobody here. Look away. Just another bright day in town. … Dang, those guards at the main entrance have got some olfactory nerves on them because I was jumped like some Gloucester High teen as soon as I stepped into the city. (Low blow, sorry. No offense intended against the fine guards of Silvermoon City.)
Anyway, I recovered my body after I sent Stormsoul in to investigate where the fire even was. End of the Murder Row just into the Court of the Sun. Oh, how à propos.
Carefully avoiding getting too close to anyone, I stealthed into the heart of the city. A little lost I wound up stealthing through one of the Inns. Finally I made it to Murder Row. Scouting ahead I see two more guards. I couldn't sneak through the last pair stationed like this. I could take the death and advance further.
But, wait, there's more. There's some 70's doing the silly games near the fire. Oh, yeah, that's going to work.
So I sat stealthed in the Warlock Trainer's area. Inside the curtains, occasionally looking out to see what was going on.
Nobody there? Just the NPC's? Level 70 Troll Priest at the south end of Murder Row, just sitting there. So I turn north, and go through the two guards. Whoa. Made it. And into the pond when the mechanical guard goes by, with his stealth detection on. He's going down Murder Row. I'm getting my fur wet, and I'm a cat. Pfft.
I jump out and run behind the bonfire. Last year I think I activated a pole to steal the fire. This year I simply clicked on the bonfire. This was easy. Again. The Fire of Silvermoon City was mine. I walk to the back corner and hearth home.
Turn in the fires, grab my crown. Now I linger, just slightly longer than I had to, at the mailbox.
P.S. Stealth capable classes for the win!
P.P.S. It only got better. Turning in four flames from the enemy cities earned me 100 flowers. I used those to buy the summer chest armor. And, watch out, I'm on fire!
P.P.P.S. Be sure to check out WoWInsider's Flames article.
P.P.P.P.S. Using another location guide, Itarilde and I visited a bunch of flames in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms. She quit once she got 350 flowers and her Captured Flame. I got my Brazier of Dancing Flames and then kept going until I'd visited every single flame, Horde and Alliance. Actually, finally, got ganked in Netherguard Keep by an Orc Shaman and a Tauren Warrior, both 70's. Oh well. A Troll Shaman died in Stranglethorn Vale and the balance was restored. When you added up how many flames there were, and realized you earned 5,000xp for honoring a friendly flame, and 10,000 xp for desecrating an enemy flame, it was like riding all over the world turning in quests. I earned a small bit of gold doing it as well. And lovely Itarilde dinged 62 as well.
One more update: In Nashville for a conference. So I took the lovely Itarilde for a run to capture the enemy fires. Undercity was a piece of cake. I did need to wait for the lingering 70 Warlock to move on. Second he did I made my move and captured the flame. Next stop, Silvermoon City. Like Greenclaw, first death was inside the gates. On collecting my body, and studying the patrols, I again went through the inn to Murder Row and then walked between the two guards. Nobody around. I grab the flame and restealth. 3 70's appear. Alliance. One bows to me. They grab their flames and mount up. I mount up too and say "Let's blow this pop stand." We ride out, they in the lead. Sweet. Next up, Orgrimmar. The first guards get as I enter via the back entrance. Some mage makes sure to Arcane Explosion as well. Woots for him. Stealthing I move to where I remember the fire was last year. Nope. It's just to the south of there. And guards somehow spot me, and a Warlock too, for good measure. I died in the house next to the fire. I come back and scout around in wisp form. I watch the Warlock make an utter hash of the torch tossing. I find the rogue in the same guild obviously waiting exactly where I'd expect me to be. (I like how rogues think alike with regards to tactical stealthing.) So I rez at a safe distance and move to a new hut and log off. This morning I log on and easily grab the flame. I take a portal to Moonglade and then head to Thunderbluff. That was the easiest flame to steal. Nobody around. There was a tricky moment there, passing through two close guards going into an inn leading to the walkway to the Elder Rise. The guards turn, but don't aggro. I'd made it. All in all, 3 deaths, 100 flowers, 1 crown. I turned the 100 flowers in for the chest armor and Itarilde too is a true spirit of summer.

Save the game, quit, then reload again as many times as desired to get $500 and 500 Respect points each time.Infinite money
Enter a hotel, nightclub, shop, etc. that you own. Smash the cash register and collect the money. Walk out the door, then walk back in. The cash register should be fixed. You can repeat the process as many times as desired. It is a slow way of getting money, but sometimes you will get $10,000.Infinite ammunition and $1 million
Reach the "Don Of New York City" rank at a 91.5% game completion to get one million dollars and unlimited ammunition for all of your guns only. Bombs, dynamite, and Molotov Cocktails are not unlimited, and melee weapons can still wear out. To become the Don, you must take over all businesses and rackets, then complete the contracts on the other families top Bosses.No heat when stealing cars
Reach the "Underboss" rank to have no heat when stealing a parked car.Easier driving
While driving, honk your horn constantly to send other cars to the side of the road. Additionally, go to a police station and bribe the police chief. You can then steal the police car without any trouble. Turn on the siren and cars will now move out of your way.Easier car chases
When you are being chased by enemies in a car, let them drive up on your side. Usually they will come up near your rear on your left or right. Then, look ahead and lure them into an accident. Usually they will smash into something like oncoming traffic or a wall if timed correctly. They will eventually come back and catch up to you, but if you keep doing this they will eventually blow themselves up (because you cannot shoot out your car at them).Easier special kills
In missions where you have to kill an important figure in a certain way (such as pushing them off a roof or into a furnace), you can do this easier by luring the enemy over to the hazard you must use to kill them before fighting with them. Just avoid them and run over to the hazard. They will come over to you. Beat them up a little, but do not kill them completely. Then, grab them and swing them so they have their back to the hazard. Then, shove them to their death.Losing police quickly
If you commit a lot of damage and/or kill a lot of people, you will get wanted stars. Once you get enough stars, the police will chase and shoot you. To lose them, just move to a different area and all of your stars will immediately go away.Shooting enemies behind cover easier
When you are locked onto an enemy who is hiding behind a crate or low object, keep locking on and put the crosshair on a part of their body that is sometimes sticking out, like their head or arm. This will help you kill them easier.Avoid getting shot
When you are getting shot by another family or cop, grab someone nearby and use them as a shield. By doing this, you will not get hurt while being shot.Ammunition
All the safe houses that you pay for have ammo caches. When low on ammunition or health, you can go into these houses and restock. They are the orange houses on the map, and most are in hotels.Easy money
To get more money, take over as many businesses, warehouses, and rackets as possible before completing missions. By doing this you will get much more on payday, and money for important weapon upgrades.
To stop your money from going into some racket that will not pay off later, get the pressure up on the person you would normally buy out and he will instead pay you.
In missions where you raid an enemy gang's operation (like a supplier or storefront racket), search the interior after completing the main objective for hidden stashes of money and ammunition. Most back rooms, closets, and rooftops contain hidden moneybags or weapon stashes.
Go to the police station in Brooklyn and bribe the chief, then rob the bank. When you get outside no one will shoot or chase you. Note: When bribing the chief make sure you have no heat.
To get easy money and respect, go to the Molotov Cocktail seller in Midtown. Look for hobos walking around, then shoot them. You will receive no heat, but either +750 Respect and $3000 or +900 Respect and $100.
When walking around the city, kill the homeless men you see from time to time. The majority of the time they will have $5,500 and you will get no heat.
Get on the freeway and about every ten seconds a warehouse truck should appear. Stop your car in front of it, get out, cause some damage, kill the bagmen, take the money, and keep driving. You can accumulate a lot of money quickly. Then, return to your safe house and deposit the money.
After you own the compounds, go to New Jersey. It is easier to travel through the Holland Tunnel. Go to the Stracci compound, then drive into the container park. Go far behind, where you will see a lot of containers. Step out, then you will see a lot of Stracci soldiers. Kill all of them, then go in to the maze. At the back, there are two boxes and another group of Straccis. Break open the box to find approximately $120,000. Then, run as fast as you can to your car before another bunch of Straccis appear. If they do appear, kill them all. In total you will get around $125,000. Note: You will need a lot of ammunition. They can be as strong as the sewer system bell-boys.
Different families have different incomes; the richest family is the Barzini (green) family followed by the Cuneo (red) family. The businesses that you take from these families pay out a lot more than the other two. Also, when you are taking over their business, do not forget to pick up the money they drop. When a Barzini (green) family member is killed, you can pick up at least $200 per person. However, when you take money from a Tattaglia (brown) family member, you will only get $15.
Enter the sewer system and find a crate containing money, which is guarded by a group of heavily armed bell-boys. The entrance to the sewer system is directly south of the westernmost Tattaglia warehouse on the Hell's Kitchen Loop.Extorting businesses
If you are having trouble extorting business owners, try destroying some of their property and/or hold a gun to their face. For example, when you are trying to take over Good Eats in Brooklyn, you can hold a gun to the man's face then reholster the gun and extort. If he refuses, simply draw your gun again, lock on, and hold it. Keep doing this until he caves in. Do not forget to reholster your gun to avoid accidentally shooting him. In another example, when you are trying to extort money from the hotel owner in Brooklyn, hold a gun to him twice, break the downstairs cupboard, then finally blow his safe before you beat him into submission. Always buy available rackets first. Take a trip around to either buy another racket or go around the block. Do not attack until you visit again, and instead of enemy soldiers you will find all your soldiers. By doing this you do not have to fight a bunch of enemies and get your vendetta up.
If you have not taken over all the businesses and rackets, wait until you have reached the "Don Of New York City" rank. You will be able to take over anything without having to smash anything up or "convince" the person that it is a good idea; they will just say "Yes" immediately.Robbing banks
Depending on the type of bank will determine the easiest way it can be robbed. The type with the three guards and one room is by far the easiest, and should be robbed as often as possible. Use the following trick to rob it without being chased or even getting past two shields. First, bribe the cop outside. Then, go into the bank and choke the first guard by the door. Next, go into the vault area and start strangling the guard on the left. The other guard will come and attack you, but he will not shoot. He will only hit you with his billy club. Remember to strangle the man on the left first because he tends to start shooting with his shotgun if you attack the other guard. If you are robbing the big bank, start the same way by bribing the cop outside. Then, go in and immediately strangle the guards in the main room. Hurry down to the vault and strangle the two guards there. Open the door and blow the vault. Three or four guards will attack you as you flee the vault. Get close to them and shoot them with your Tommy gun to perform an instant execution. After you shoot them, run up the stairs and move to the right. Then, take an immediate right to leave the building where the car is always parked. Get in the car quickly because you will be shot at when outside. Take off and you should not be chased once you hit the streets. After any bank robbery you must go to your hangout to get the money. The best bank to rob is the midtown bank, close to the apartment that the Corleone's give you after you save Michael. You wll get $50,000 there.Safes
You must blow up all safes to become Don Of New York City. Blow up all the safes when you are taking over businesses that have one. By doing this you will not have to search for safes after you completed most of the missions. Also, you will get an money, 1,000 Respect, and dynamite by blowing them up.Taking over compounds
A good way to take over a compound is to kill everyone from afar then work your way in. The enemies will not respawn as long as you do not leave the area (about one city block). Just hide behind things by crouching, then shoot around corners to get kills. It is also recommended that you upgrade at least two of the pistols (preferably the pistol or sawn off magnum, for quicker shooting).
To take over a compound, equip all of your guns with ammunition, or use a powerful gun to kill other gangsters and take their gun. You should have cover at all times. Note: When behind the bushes to the left of the entrance they can shoot you through the bushes. Once inside, do the same thing and always have cover. Then, run downstairs. In the back house there are two men. One is behind a box and there is another behind a pillar. After those two are dead, set the time bomb (not dynamite). If needed, stay in the basement and die, then drive back and repeat on the other house.
When you are ready to take over a compound, the Tattaglias in northeast Brooklyn is recommended because they may be the weakest family in New York, but that does not mean they are going to be very simple to defeat either. Bring some bombs along and blow up the support pillars in the basements. You may start a mob war, but if you are successful you will have a new safe house with a group of guards.
When trying to take over a compound, use your car to run people over. Then, get out and use it as a shield. Once you are in the yard, kill any enemies. Then if you have a lot of ammunition, take one step into the house and shoot at the floor or person. The enemies should step out as you hide. Shoot them, then continue into the room with the couches. Someone could be hiding behind the couch. Run to the basement and clear it, then plant a bomb. Do the same in the other house.
Stay far away form the gang members guarding the business or compound, enough so that you cannot lock on to them. If you pick them off from a far range, they will not shoot back. You can clear the area without getting shot.Assaulting warehouses
Before going on a warehouse assault have these items: pistol (full ammunition), Tommy gun (full ammunition), shotgun (full ammunition), magnum (full ammunition), molotovs (6), and about $25,000. When going to a warehouse, try to blow up the roadblocks. After that, stand there and shoot at oncoming gangsters with your pistol (headshots are essential). Then, go in to the warehouse area. Stand behind boxes and shoot the enemies with the pistol or magnum (again with headshots). Once you enter the warehouse, have either your shotgun or Tommy gun ready. Most enemies will have shotguns and Tommy guns. When you kill them, search for the owner. He will have puppeteer hands. Buy him out. Do not hit or injure him or you will not be able to buy him out and will have to use pressure. More than likely you will have also started a mob war. Do not bother looking for bombing business. Instead, check the map for the nearest FBI agent and bribe him. You may lose $3,000, but it is less risky. You will now have a warehouse and won a mob war at the same time.Getting past barricades easily
When you go to a hub, warehouse, or compound with people and cars blocking your way, get a truck and run into the cars and people until it catches on fire. Then, finish off the other people that are still alive.
When you go to a hub, warehouse, or compound with people and cars blocking your way, stand close enough that you can lock-on to a person. Take either dynamite or a Molotov Cocktail and throw it. It will blow up the cars next to the people. Continue doing this until you have reached the hub, warehouse, or compound.Free pistol in "The Alley" mission
After you beat up the men and are told to locate your safehouse, follow the Don's enforcer out of the alley and turn left. Walk down a short distance to the next alley on your left. There will be a thug standing there, staring at you. He will not attack, but if you beat him up he will drop a pistol, which is good for a first gun. You can use the pistol to get through the next few missions easier (before you are given a more powerfu gun by the mob).Hidden money in "Death To The Traitor" mission
After placing the bomb in the upstairs of the bar, an enemy will suddenly open up the previously locked door at the top of the stairs. Quickly run into the hallway to find a massive stash of money bags. Do this quickly by sprinting, as you will not have much time to run downstairs and leave before the bomb explodes. Do not bother trying to open the second door in the hallway, because it is locked."The Don Is Dead" mission
Before starting this mission, break the windows in the barber shop. This will allow for easy shooting once the Don is shot. The recommended gun for this and any other close range shooting mission is the magnum.Recommended weapons
Do not waste money on safe houses. You can make it just fine with the ones you get in the story. Instead, use your money for clothing and weapons. All the best weapons cost a lot but are well worth it. The Saturday Night Special is a better revolver and costs $75,000. The Assassin's Pistol is better gun and costs about $200,000. The Python is a better magnum and costs $250,000. The Dillinger is a machine gun and costs $450,000. Finally, the Street Sweeper, which works like a shotgun, costs $500,000 and will kill most people in one shot.
The pistol at level 3 works like a semi-automatic gun. It carries fourteen bullets and has more firepower. It is great for taking over businesses. The shotgun at level 3 has more ammunition, more firepower, and is great for taking over warehouses, etc. Prioritize weapons upgrades before safehouse buying. One house in each city is fine at the start. However, you will have to buy them all in the end.Recommended upgrade priority
Health: The more health, the better.
Streetsmarts: Prolong the victims breaking point (and by doing so, increasing your weekly income earnings). Remember to always try to buy them out first.
Fighting: Increase you negotiation pressure by 10% for each upgrade.
Speed: Not so essential. Only faster reloading is interesting here.
Shooting: For better aiming speed and precision but not essential for taking over businesses.
All the guns in the game are based on actual firearms. The following is a list of the guns in the game and their closest real-life equivalents:
- .38 Snub-Nose: Colt Detective .38 Special / Smith & Wesson M & P 2 in revolver
- Pistol: Colt M1911A1 semi-auto .45 pistol
- Magnum: Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver in .357
- Long-barrel Shotgun: Remington 870 pump-action shotgun
- Tommy Gun: Thompson M1921 / 1928 sub-machine gun in .45
When you press Square, you will squat and make a grunt. When you repeatedly press Square it appears as if you are humping or dancing. Try going outside to a person on the street and keep pressing Square next to them. Go somewhere with music and do it to "dance". Take a gun out hold Square and fire away.Marlon Brando's last appearance
Play the mission when you go to the hospital to protect the Don. After you kill the first assassin and Michael Corleone tells you to go to the basement, go foward and make a left. You should see a door with Michael Corleone talking to Vito Corleone while he is in the hospital bed. Listen to the conversation carefully. This is the real Marlon Brando talking, recorded while he was hospitalized.Movie and television references
There is a man with red hair, a mustache, and a fedora hat who is named Edward Rooney (from Ferris Buellers Day Off) in Little Italy. There is a man with black-gray hair named Mike Brady (from The Brady Bunch) in Midtown. There is a blonde woman walking around in a black dress named Pamela Anderson in Midtown.

The problem I had was I could only go to the website using the IP address & not my typing, for example: www.example.com. I have tried many different things but still couldn't make it work. Now I have deleted the website and the DNS zone I created in order to start off properly again. ----------------------------------- I have only one IP address to work with. I was also given a Subnet mask, default gateway, Pref DNS and Alt DNS . Q1 - Are these information enough to host an intranet site? Q2 - How do I set up the DNS Zone or website from the information provided? I would really appreciate a step-by-step instruction to get through this problem.

Mitsubishi i EV: The One Sentence Review
Though I often write about electric vehicles, my opportunities to drive them have mostly been limited to car shows and special events. That all changed a couple of weeks ago when I was given three full days to test out Mitsubishi's entry into the EV market. Known around the world as the i-Miev, here in America it will be called simply the "Mitsubishi i," and it currently represents the most affordable EV on the market that isn't a go kart.
But only just. Read on for the rest of my "one-sentence" review.Read more

DALLAS, TX: The Museum of the American Railroad has received a lead gift from Mr. John D. "Jack" and Sally S. Maxson. The Maxsons are lifelong residents of Dallas. They have graciously contributed $50,000.00 to the Museum as its Capital Campaign for the Frisco site moves forward. This is a substantial cash gift toward the Museum's goal of $500,000.00 for construction of its Phase 1A facilities in Frisco.
"We are happy to assist in the Museum's next major step in its growth. Its collection is world class - the finest in the Southwest. It deserves a home that is fitting of its importance in American history. The Museum has worked hard to get to this point and the City of Frisco recognizes the Museum's potential as a major attraction," said Mr. Maxson.
Jack Maxson is co-founder of Dallas-based Showco and Vari-Lite International which pioneered state-of-the-art sound, as well as automated stage, theater, and concert lighting systems worldwide. Mr. Maxson is nephew of the late Everett L. DeGolyer, Jr, Dallas philanthropist, and co-founder of the Railroad Museum in 1963. The DeGolyer family is best known for the Dallas Arboretum, which is on the grounds of their former estate near White Rock Lake.
The Maxson gift is a substantial boost to the Museum's Capital Campaign. The Museum funded the design and engineering phases of the Frisco project internally. With engineering complete, the Capital Campaign is now underway to raise 1/3 of the $1.5 million required for Phase 1A construction. Under the development agreement with Frisco, the City will provide 2/3 ($1 million) of the funds.

São Tomé and Príncipe
Facts & Figures
President: Manuel Pinto da Costa (2011)
Prime Minister: Patrice Trovoada (2014)
Total area: 386 sq mi (1,001 sq km)
Population (2014 est.): 190,428 (growth rate: 1.89%); birth rate: 35.12/1000; infant mortality rate: 49.16/1000; life expectancy: 64.22
Capital and largest city (2011 est.): São Tomé, 64,000
Monetary unit: dobra
- São Tomé and Príncipe Main Page
The tiny volcanic islands of São Tomé and Príncipe lie in the Gulf of Guinea about 150 mi (240 km) off West Africa. São Tomé (about 330 sq mi; 859 sq km) is covered by a dense mountainous jungle, out of which have been carved large plantations. Príncipe (about 40 sq mi; 142 sq km) consists of jagged mountains. Other islands in the republic are Pedras Tinhosas and Rolas. About 95% of the population lives on São Tomé.
São Tomé and Príncipe, believed to have been originally uninhabited, were explored by Portuguese navigators in 1471 and settled by the end of the century. Intensive cultivation by slave labor made the islands a major producer of sugar during the 17th century, but output declined until the introduction of coffee and cocoa in the 19th century brought new prosperity. The island of São Tomé was the world's largest producer of cocoa in 1908, and the crop is still its most important. Working conditions for laborers, however, were horrendous, and in 1909 British and German chocolate manufacturers boycotted São Tomé cocoa in protest. An exile liberation movement was formed in 1953 after Portuguese landowners quelled labor riots by killing several hundred African workers.
The Portuguese revolution of 1974 brought the end of the overseas empire, and on July 12, 1975, Lisbon granted São Tomé independence. Manuel Pinto da Costa, leader of the only legal political party (Movement for the Liberation of São Tomé and Príncipe [MLSTP]), became president and Miguel Trovoada served as prime minister. After a 1978 coup attempt failed, Trovoada was accused of participating in the conspiracy and exiled. In 1990 a new constitution instituted multiparty rule. Trovoada returned and in March 1991 was voted president in the country's first free elections. Príncipe became autonomous in 1995.
Protests and unrest erupted throughout the 1990s over unemployment and soaring inflation. One of Africa's poorest countries, São Tomé has what are believed to be enormous untapped off-shore oil reserves—an estimated 6 billion barrels that are expected to begin flowing by 2007 or 2008. Businessman Fradique de Menezes won the presidential election in 2001. In July 2003, a military coup deposed Menezes while he was out of the country. International pressure resulted in Menezes's restoration to the presidency a week later. In 2006, Menezes won reelection with 60% of the vote, but the governing MDFM-PCD coalition did not win a majority of votes in parliamentary elections. In February 2008, the coalition agreed to a power-sharing deal with the opposition Independent Democratic Action (ADI) party. The party's leader, Patrice Trovoada, was appointed prime minister. He was named prime minister again in 2010, after his ADI won parliamentary elections, taking 26 of 55 seats. Trovoada would again lead a minority government until Dec. 2012 when Gabriel Costa took over as prime minster.
In the August 2011 presidential runoff, Manuel Pinto da Costa won 52.9% of the vote to secure the presidency, beating Evaristo Carvalho at 47.1%. Voter turnout was 74%. In Nov. 2014, Patrice Trovoada became prime minister for the third time.

Today's Comic
Gah. Just Gah.
April 6, 2006
So yeah. I'm doing a buncha double comics to catch up. Wheee. The entire arch I'm doing now will be that. We'll see how it goes.
Also, I'm slowly emailing everyone who's donated in the last year or so (maybe more) with a donation gift. I'll expand throughout said gift throughout April. Granted, I'm also counting on these people to tell me what they'd like to see (hint, hint). Right now, I've got everyone who's donated to me through this past January. If you haven't received an email, forward a copy of your PayPal slip to me.
And, yes, if you donate now you get the gift, too. I'm hoping to change the gift in May - but then it'll only go to people who donate in May (I'm making April's gift retroactive because I feel like the people who've donated for the hell of it deserve a little something extra).
And what is the gift? Well, I'll be updating it this afternoon - but here are two thumbnails of some wallpapers that are currently part of it.
So... yeah. WHEEEEE! -

This is a 650 single-speed or rear der. only frame for rim brakes ( Paul Component Motolites) and to top it all off....S&S couplers. This unprecedented combination will go to Virginia and probably see a lot of miles in the air as well as on the ground. The tubeset is a combination of Reynolds 853 and 725 with the normal Dedaccai seat and head tubes that I use on almost every steel frame. Reynolds has a habit of not making the diameters of thier tubes to spec so I have to really become mr. precision machinest to make everything fit up correctly, which thankfully it did. I can send this one out knowing that without the tools and experience I have I would probably not be able to complete such a frame. I guess the years of hard work and throwing tools at the floor are paying off.

A dialog is a window that receives some input from the user and returns it to the application. For instance, if the application wants to know where to save a file, it could prompt the user with a file dialog. Dialogs can also be cancelled, meaning that the application should cancel the current operation.
In order to let you know whether or not the dialog was cancelled, CAPI dialogs always return two values. The first value is the return value itself, and the second value is
if the dialog returned normally and
if the dialog was cancelled.
The CAPI provides both a large set of predefined dialogs and the means to create your own. This chapter takes you through some example uses of the predefined dialogs, and then shows you how to create custom built dialogs.

text: [SOLVED] Postfix or apache sending spam emails Hello guys, I am having a problem with postfix sending spam emails that are targeting a list of aol.com users. I am using Ubuntu 12.04 Problems: ## Postfix + squirrelmail ## 1- Since I am using postfix on a home server so port 25 is blocked by default from my ISP so I had to use the relay option to be able to send email using: relayhost = smtp.bredband.net ( My ISP ) in main.cf 2- The emails been sent using userid 33 ( www-data ) from other domains that are hosted on same server and pointed to same ip. So, My main domain I am using with postfix is selman.us and all emails should only be sent from [email protected] and I don't want it to be sent from another apache virtual host like [email protected] Now spammers using botnet or some other applications to be able to send emails from my other domain while those users don't exist on the website or the system like [email protected] Steps I have taken so far to stop this drama: 1- Removed my ISP smtp server from relayhost in main.cf to disable relay on the server. 2- Added the smtp server to squirrelmail instead and sending emails works fine. 3- Blocked all outgoing connections to aol.com ips on port 25 using ufw. Now all emails been sent by the spammers go to postfix queue and I have in my mail logs: status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to mailin-04.mx.aol.com[188.8.131.52]:25: Connection timed out) Since I am having tons of emails going out so it's about 2k emails per hour go to queue so I have created a cron job to wipe them hourly using: postsuper -d ALL ---------------------- The problem is partly solved now but I need something more effective: 1- I need to know how use my own smtp server to send emails using another port than 25 like port 587 2- How to prevent spammers from using my other domain names to send emails. Like allow only my main domain name or host name to send out emails and not all domains hosted on my server. Thank you for reading and your help is much appreciated.

Henry Ford's Digital Collections Initiatives Manager Ellice Engdahl recently wrote about one of his favorite artifacts of the 18,000 published online: The Monkey Bar diorama. This diorama was created by a man known as Patrick J. Culhane (various spellings) in 1914-15 during his time at the Massachusetts State Prison at Charlestown where he'd been sent after a conviction of "larceny from a conveyance." Culhane carved and assembled this incredibly detailed piece of prison art by hand from a variety of materials, including peach pits, and scraps of wood, fabric, metal, cellulose, and plastic, all fitting into a base measuring only 16″ x 20″.
Engdahl notes that Monkey Bars were created by other prisoners in the early 20th century, and that "Culhane intended the diorama to depict many of the worldly pitfalls that had put him and his fellow inmates on a path to prison. The Bar is chock full of monkeys engaged in all kinds of rambunctious activities—drinking alcohol, gluttonous eating, smoking (cigarettes, cigars, and opium), gambling and gaming in many forms (craps, roulette, checkers, shell game, and cards), playing music, monitoring the stock market via a ticker, and even paying off a policemonkey. Clearly some of the monkeys are ready to check into (or out of) the associated hotel, as they have their suitcases with them and keys and mail are visible behind the desk."
After Culhane finished his piece, he arranged to have it sent to Henry Ford, with a hand-written note, "Presented to Mr. Henry Ford / As a token of appreciation and esteem for his many benevolent and magnanimous acts toward, and keen interest in, prisoners / By A Prisoner."
Engdahl surmises that Ford became interested in Culhane, and may have a hand in his release from prison, as Culhane was hired to work at the Ford Motor Company in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1916 and Ford's secretary corresponded with Culhane regularly.

"A Fairly Simple Thing"
Another recommendation arising from the summit's committees included the modification of the Jockey Club's existing InCompass racing-office software to automatically identify horses who have been placed on vet's lists or starter's lists in other states. According to Peterson, some trainers ship horses out of the state in order to avoid complying with the conditions that are required to remove the horses from the lists, in the hopes that the state is not aware that the horse has been temporarily barred from racing.
"We frequently see horsemen who shop their horses around to other states," Peterson said. "It's a fairly simple thing to address."
Wonderful. And why not take the change a step further? Make the resulting "Disabled List" accessible through the Equibase site so that those interested — fans curious about why a horse hasn't started in a while, for instance — can more easily get basic information about a horse's status.

The recent jockeying for position and struggle to find an identity within the crowded and competitive world of network, cable, streaming video, and online television reminds me of one of my favorite Dr. Seuss stories, The Sneetches. The Sneetches were a group of yellow creatures, some with green stars on their bellies (a sign of distinction) and some without, until a character named Sylvester McMonkey McBean offers those without stars a chance to add them by going through his Star-On machine. In order to stay special the Sneetches formerly with stars happily pay the money to have them removed in his Star-Off machine. Ultimately this escalates, with the Sneetches running from one machine to the next, and to quote the good Doctor,
"until neither the Plain nor the Star-Bellies knew whether this one was that one… or that one was this one or which one was what one… or what one was who."
The last few month, the news out of the "television" world has been very Seuss-like to say the least:
At this year's winter TV press tour Kevin Reilly, entertainment president, Fox Broadcasting Company, revealed that his network plans to use web content as a development tool for the airwaves. "Something that starts in digital could be the next big primetime hit… We have an expertise, and a history, and proficiency, and a primetime audience base," he confirms in this Atlantic.com article about 5 Ways the Networks Want to Change How You Watch TV. Reilly goes on to use Web Therapy starring Lisa Kudrow (of Friends fame) as one example of a web-only series that has successfully made the switch and is now aired on Showtime.
In an effort to kick start their declining subscription base, Netflix is beginning to act more like a network rather than your average streaming video provider. By jumping into the original programming waters, Netflix plans to release three new series in 2012 – starting with Lilyhammer, a crime comedy set in Norway's former Winter Olympics headquarters, starring The Soprano's Steven Van Zandt. Not to be outdone and fresh off a year where they realized 60 percent revenue growth in 2011, the web streaming service Hulu is launching its first ever original scripted series. Battleground, a mockumentary series described as "The Office meets The West Wing, premieres February 14, explains, this opinion brief on TheWeek.com.
And remember when YouTube was just a site where you could watch short clips of people doing funny and unusual things? Well, last week Reuters joined CNN and the BBC by unveiling its own channel to be shown on the popular video sharing site. The channels will show original content from Reuters on YouTube, which will allow them to leverage an army of over 3,000 reporters worldwide.
I doubt all the players involved with getting content to the masses will end up in blissful harmony like our friends the Sneetches, but it should be fun watching them run from one machine to the next having their green stars removed and re-added over again.
What are your thoughts? Please share them with me here on BurrellesLuce Fresh Ideas.

Rose in bloom: Exhibits trace 50-year history
Artist James Rosenquist will be on hand for celebration
When the Rose Art Museum reopens this week with a celebration of its 50th anniversary, three new exhibits will help tell its story – past, present and future.
"Art at the Origin: The Early '60s," "Collecting Stories" and "Bruce Conner: EVE-RAY-FOREVER (1965/2006)," lead visitors through some of the earliest acquisitions for The Rose, those that have been integral to the museum's development over time and its newest acquisition, respectively.
"It's a time of great renewal at The Rose and the galleries are looking spectacular" following recent completion of a $1.7 million renovation, says Roy Dawes, the museum's director of operations.
For some students, like Rebeccah Ulm '11, PB '12, who were drawn to Brandeis University by the museum, the reopening, which will be celebrated publicly on Thursday, Oct. 27, from 5 to 8 p.m., offers the first new exhibits they've seen since early in their college careers.
The value of the Rose is "the value of emotion. It's the value of the kind of experience that awakens you to something," Ulm says. "It expands your mind and your perception of the world and yourself and the way you interact with society. These are the kinds of things that The Rose facilitates."
Within five years of its opening in 1961, the Rose Art Museum housed one of the most daring contemporary art collections at any university, including works by Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol and Willem de Kooning. Between 1962 and 1963, Leon and Harriet Mnuchin donated a $50,000 inheritance for the purpose of acquiring contemporary art. Half of the Art at the Origin show, housed in the newly renovated Gerald S. and Sandra Fineberg Gallery, was purchased through that gift.
"When you open a museum as late as the '60s, saying you're going to collect across time is insane," says Dabney Hailey, director of academic programs for The Rose. The Art at the Origin exhibition "revels in this incredible moment from 1960 to 1965. It's like walking back into New York in the '60s and seeing all the different types of painting going on then."
Among those works is a painting by James Rosenquist, a pop-artist who came to prominence during that period. Rosenquist's "Two 1959 People," was purchased with Mnuchin's gift and will be featured in the exhibit.
Rosenquist, who has had a long association with The Rose beginning with that acquisition, will return for the reopening. Rosenquist will attend the opening celebration and, at 2 p.m. in Pollack Auditorium, he'll give a talk and slide presentation.
Excited for the opportunity to visit The Rose for the first time since 2001, Rosenquist says it's important for not just students, but the community at large, to learn about the museum's treasures.
"Any institution that exhibits artwork for the community really imparts humanism to that community," Rosenquist says. "That's the bottom line."
The Rose's growth over five decades is captured in "Collecting Stories," from gifts of modernist paintings that inspired the Rose's formation to contemporary art acquisitions connected to the museum's history of bold exhibitions. Works by Juan Gris, Nam June Paik and Marsden Hartley are featured in this selection of works from the museum's trove of more than 7,000 pieces.
Adding a modern twist, many of the artworks will have QR codes, and the museum will have iPads on hand for celebrants to scan art and see a bit of its history.
"Students are learning and going through this pivotal period in their lives – when they are figuring out who they are, what they want to do, what matters to them. To make contemporary art a part of that process is unbelievably important. And that those folks managed to believe in that and fund it and make it happen in that moment is really spectacular," Hailey says, referring to Mnuchin and The Rose's first director, Sam Hunter, as well as to Brandeis' first president, Abram Sachar, and initial donors Edward and Bertha Rose. "It shows a commitment to art and art's place in our world that I admire."
The third exhibit is Bruce Conner's recreation of "EVE-RAY-FOREVER (1965/2006)," his controversial and provocative film installation first shown in 1965. After the film proved too delicate to restore, Conner digitally recreated it and sold it to the museum anew.
"Art is just this amazing vehicle and opportunity for people to come in and have an experience with an object that evokes something within them that isn't otherwise on your radar," Ulm says. "It's this opportunity to come to a place and stand in front of something and just totally give yourself over and think and feel something and connect with something you don't have the chance to in your normal hustle and bustle routine.
"To be able to come into the gallery and sit and look at a painting that I have read about and seen in a book but is completely different up close...everything changes when it's physically present in front of you."

I love it very much! I am honored and extremely happy to know that both of my ancestors were great. I had 2, one from my mom's side, one from my dad's. I am honored and humbled that they chose to be with me and continue to support me in this lifetime. I also saw synchronicities in this reading and binding that are related in this lifetime, most especially when it comes to my abilities and magickal practice.

I will be a loyal customer for life and this is my most favorite online shop ever and it will always be. I love the freebies that I got here and I have noticed that my paranormal, metaphysical and magickal gifts have significantly improved. This shows that they are definitely sincere when it comes to helping people. I'm very happy and very satisfied with all the spirits, spells/enchantments/services/rituals and ebooks that I got here and I will forever treasure them/these as well. I think that Spirit Keeping should be more known in the occult/magick/metaphysical community and I am proud to be a Spirit Keeper and will always be. I'm extremely grateful that I had my very first spirit binding and spell service here that's why I never had and will never ever get it from others.
Bless Parco Rodriguez
I genuinely don't recall how I even found out about this site. But since August 2018 I've been a customer. I had purchased spells before - not many. And I never owned a spirit before CH. I think I came in with a lot of skepticism but was also willing to try it out. So far I've purchased several hundred dollars worth of spirits and spells and books from CH. I even have some recurring subscriptions. I'm about to make a purchase now, LOL. Specifically, I can share that my intuition/psychic abilities have greatly increased. I can often see things unfold prior to their unfolding and it's with a certainty that I can't explain. My confidence has increased and financial opportunities have greatly increased. I haven't had a bad experience with a order or customer service or anything of that nature. Last but not least - never discount the freebies or bonuses that are offered. They are sometimes more powerful than the original spell or spirit you purchased. And don't be afraid to allow CH to select for you on some of your BOGO offers. Keep an open mind and give it a try.

World Bulletin/News Desk
China reported one more death from a new strain of bird flu on Thursday, bringing the death toll to 32, with the number of infections staying at 129, the official Xinhua news agency said.
A 56-year-old man died in the central province of Henan, two weeks after his infection was confirmed, Xinhua cited a statement from the local health bureau.
The man had no direct contact with birds, but there were birdcages hanging in the corridor of the building he lived in, the report said.
The Geneva-based World Health Organization (WHO) has said it has no evidence that the new strain of bird flu, first detected in patients in China in March, is easily transmissible between humans.
Chinese scientists have confirmed that the H7N9 strain has been transmitted to humans from chickens. But the WHO has said 40 percent of people infected with H7N9 appear to have had no contact with poultry.Last Mod: 09 Mayıs 2013, 15:18
