"Sirivennela Sitaramasastri was approached to write the lyrics for the songs after his work in K. Viswanath ''Sirivennela'' (1986) was noticed.",
"According to screenwriter Ganesh Patro, Balachander wanted the songs to convey the story rather than serving the protagonists' dreams; Ilaiyaraaja used verses from the poetry anthology ''Maha Prasthanam'', written by Telugu writer Sri Sri, in the song \"Cheppalani Vundi\"."
],
[
"Release history",
"''Rudraveena'''s soundtrack was released under Ilaiyaraaja's Echo Recording Company through double LP and cassettes.",

"S. Subakeerthana of ''The Federal'' stated that in films like ''Sagara Sangamam'', ''Sindhu Bhairavi'' and ''Rudraveena'', \"Ilaiyaraaja displayed his hold over Carnatic music by tackling some challenging ragas.",
"\"Archana Nathan of ''Scroll.in'' described the soundtrack as \"brilliant\" and reflected on the central themes of the film, which is the tussle between father and son over Carnatic music, but felt that \"Taralirada\" dwells deeper into the said themes.",

"Tasha Ghouri"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Natasha Amber Ghouri''' (, born 11 August 1998) is a television personality from Thirsk.",
"Born deaf, she became a dancer and a model, appearing in the music video for \"More Than Words\" by Sleepwalkers featuring MNEK, and initially attracted attention for modelling earrings for ASOS; her appearances on the eighth series of ''Love Island'' brought her numerous ambassadorial roles, and she later launched a podcast, \"Superpowers with Tasha\" and announced a book, ''Hits Different''.",
"In January and February 2024, she spent a week as the Dictionary Corner guest on ''Countdown''."
],
[
"Life and career",
"=== Early life ===Natasha Amber Ghouri () was born on 11 August 1998 in Thirsk in North Yorkshire to Nicky Young and Tarek Ghouri, and has a brother, Alex.",
"She was born deaf, and was initially fitted for hearing aids, before being given a single cochlear implant at Bradford Royal Infirmary just before her fifth birthday which lasted until she was sixteen and went unreplaced for five months; she later underwent speech therapy, and was unable to speak until she was five, having communicated entirely in British Sign Language until that point.",
"She took up ballet aged three, and would copy the choreography of her parents' copy of the Steps album ''Gold: Greatest Hits''; she later attended Thirsk Primary School, Boston Spa Academy, CAPA College, and Creative Academy in Slough.After graduating, she moved to London, and signed to a modelling agency, and worked as a self-employed dancer behind a bar before spending six months in France.",
"In October 2020, she featured in the music video for \"More Than Words\" by Sleepwalkrs featuring MNEK, which was directed by Mike Baldwin and featured a performance from a dance troupe composed of deaf and hard of hearing dancers, and in April 2021, ASOS ran an advertising campaign for earrings featuring Ghouri, for which they went viral over their choice to hire a cochlear implant wearer and attracted praise from Sense, The National Deafblind and Rubella Association and the Royal National Institute for Deaf People.=== ''Love Island'' ===In 2022, Ghouri applied for the ITV2 dating show ''Love Island''; she told a October 2023 edition of Grace Beverley's \"Working Hard, Hardly Working\" podcast that she had previously applied for ''Too Hot to Handle'', but had been told that she \"weren't right for it\", and that a producer who worked on both shows passed her name on.",
"ITV announced in May 2022 that Ghouri would be an original contestant on ''Love Island'''s eighth series, becoming the format's first deaf contestant.",
"She was initially coupled up with Andrew Le Page after facing a public vote, though was taken on a hot tub date by Charlie Radnedge two weeks in, and she and Le Page remained a couple until the format's Casa Amor, when Le Page spent a brief period with Coco Lodge before breaking up with her and Ghouri spent a brief period with Billy Brown before breaking up with him; a disgruntled Lodge later revealed to their fellow Islanders what she and Le Page had got up to on the first night of Casa Amor, and Le Page later went viral for his awkward explanation to Ghouri that he had \"licked her tit, or whatever\" (he had actually sucked it).",
"Ghouri and Le Page ultimately made the final and placed joint-fourth, spending 58 days on the show; the volume of abuse directed at Ghouri later led her social media delegates to request that commentators stop mocking her deafness, and in December 2022, ITV announced that it would ban Islanders from having active social media accounts during their time on the program.=== Later activity ===After Love Island, she used her platform to encourage people to learn sign language.",

[
"Introduction",
"\"'''Part 6'''\", also known as \"'''Night Country, Part 6'''\", is the sixth episode and season finale of the fourth season of the American anthology supernatural crime drama television series ''True Detective''.",
"It is the 30th overall episode of the series and was written and directed by executive producer Issa López.",
"It was first broadcast on HBO in the United States on February 18, 2024, and was also available on Max on the same date.The season takes place in Ennis, Alaska, and follows detectives Liz Danvers and Evangeline Navarro as they investigate the disappearance of eight men who operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station and vanish without a trace.",
"While occasionally working together, Danvers and Navarro are not on good terms after an unresolved case, which was very personal for Navarro.",
"In the episode, Danvers and Navarro get trapped on Tsalal during a snow storm, where they conclude their investigations on the scientists and Anne.The episode received mostly positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances, closure and tension.",
"Some debated on the questions raised on the finale."
],
[
"Plot",
"Amidst the storm, Danvers (Jodie Foster) and Navarro (Kali Reis) enter the caves.",
"As Navarro wants to get through a blockade, they fall through the ground to a lower level of the cave.",
"Navarro spots Clark and follows him, discovering an underground laboratory.",
"Navarro and Danvers see the spiral symbol is represented on the ceiling.",
"They discover a secret passageway that leads to Tsalal.",
"As they inspect Tsalal, Clark attacks them but they overpower him.",
"They torture him by having him listen to Annie's last video.",
"He finally states that Annie discovered their plan to find the DNA of a microorganism frozen in the permafrost, which was softened thanks to the pollution caused by Silver Sky.",
"By faking the toxicity records, they found the microorganism and hoped the pollution would continue to make their job easy.",
"However, he denies being the person who attacked Annie in the video, as her screams actually woke him up.",
"He and the rest of the scientists found Lund stabbing her after she was destroying their underground research facility, with the rest of the scientists helping Lund.",
"Clark decided to kill her to put her out of misery.",
"Peter (Finn Bennett) disposes of the bodies of Hank and Otis.",
"When Leah (Isabella Star LaBlanc) arrives, he asks her to be with Kayla (Anna Lambe) so she does not spend New Year's Eve alone.",
"Noticing him, Kayla questions Peter about the case.",
"He says he will finish the case to be back with her, and she kisses him, asking him to come back to her.",
"He takes the bodies to Rose (Fiona Shaw), who helps in disposing of them by throwing them into the waters below the ice.As Danvers leaves the room, her conversation with Navarro reveals that the latter shot Wheeler, with Danvers suggesting she was considering doing it herself.",
"Clark then claims that Annie returned to kill the scientists, prompting him to hide in the passageway for the past few weeks.",
"He asks Navarro to put him out of his misery, who angrily gets him to walk out the station, to die by freezing to death, like the other scientists.",
"This angers Danvers, as he was their only witness.",
"When the power is cut off, they struggle to keep themselves alive in the station.",
"Navarro starts hearing voices, and even sees Clark again.",
"After an argument with Danvers, Navarro walks off into the outskirts and imagines reuniting with Julia.",
"Danvers goes looking for her, but sees her son trapped under the ice beneath her.",
"The ice shatters and Danvers almost dies, until Navarro pulls her out and takes her back to Tsalal.",
"Navarro claims she saw Danvers' son, who wanted to tell her that he sees her.The storm passes, and Navarro opens up to Danvers about her struggles.",
"When she mentions the hatch in the passageway, Danvers uses UV lights to reveal fingerprints on the hatch.",
"Recognizing them as belonging to female employees of Tsalal, they head out to question Beatrice and Blair, who are living with other employees.",
"The women reveal that they discovered the hatch and underground laboratory while cleaning, and they did not tell the police because they believed nothing would change.",
"The employees decided to take the scientists by gunpoint and forced them to go out into the outskirts naked, believing that Annie took care of them.",
"They claim this is just \"another story\", and Danvers and Navarro decide to officially deem the Tsalal men's death an accident, closing the case.On May 12, Danvers is questioned over Hank's disappearance.",
"She reports that Hank killed Otis and that the police are still looking for Hank.",
"Navarro has vanished from Ennis.",
"Clark's confession has caused Silver Sky to be closed.",

[
"Production",
"===Development===The episode was written and directed by executive producer Issa López.",
"This marked López's sixth writing and directing credit.===Writing===López hoped that viewers would decide their own interpretation, saying \"In this season, we can decide that these men walked onto the ice, the pressure dropped because there was a sudden blizzard, and their body temperature dropped so fast they developed delirium and died.",
"Or, there was something in the dark.",
"It's for you to decide.\"",
"She added, \"Not revealing the tongue was a fight, because so many people working with me were like, ‘No, really?",
"You’re not going to give that to us?’ And you know, in life, you don't always get all the answers.",
"Some of them are for you to figure out.",
"I'm not going to do all the homework on my own for you.\"",
"Kali Reis commented, \"I'm totally Team Navarro.",
"I totally believe it.",
"Whoever she is, Shorty awake and Shorty mad.",
"She did that.",
"She’s handling business.",
"\"When questioned over the final scene, López said, \"For me as an audience member, Navarro is alive.",
"She went out and had her walkabout in a way in the ice, because now she can do that, and find a way back.",
"But it is true that no one ever leaves Ennis... or anywhere.\"",
"Reis said, \"I think she just goes off into a place where she can be herself without any responsibilities.",
"And if she did either walk into the ice like her sister or stay around, the only person she would ever come back to see, whether it's in the spirit world or physical world, would be Danvers.\""
],
[
"Reception",
"===Viewers======Critical reviews===\"Part 6\" received mostly positive reviews from critics.",
"Christina Izzo of ''The A.V.",
"Club'' gave the episode an \"A–\" grade and wrote, \"We won't deny, we doubted showrunner Issa López leading into this last episode, given all of the stray storylines and perplexing theories that still needed tying up.",
"However, with the final edition of her ''Night Country'' saga, López has honored her vision while still making this chapter feel very much a part of the greater ''True Detective'' universe.",
"\"Alan Sepinwall of ''Rolling Stone'' wrote, \"There will almost certainly be another story, whether López tells it, or Pizzolatto returns, or someone new ends up in charge.",
"Whoever it is, and whenever it comes, a new standard has been set for how strongly a ''True Detective'' case can be closed.\"",
"Ben Travers of ''IndieWire'' gave the episode a \"B+\" grade and wrote, \"After five years off the air and with a new creative team in place, ''True Detective'' Season 4 set out to continue the franchise while reimagining what it could be.",
"That's a lot to take on, but like the finale itself, ''Night Country'' pulled it off.",
"Bring on Season 5.\"",
"Coleman Spilde of ''The Daily Beast'' wrote, \"It was not a perfect season, but its place in the series makes it a fascinating study for fans to continue pondering long after its end.\"",
"Amanda Whiting of ''Vulture'' gave the episode a perfect 5 star rating out of 5 and wrote, \"In the end, how gratifying you find the finale will depend on your willingness to forgo objective truth in favor of a notion more slippery and less satisfying.",
"That there can be more than one answer to even the most straightforward question: Whodunnit?\"",
"Scott Tobias of ''The New York Times'' wrote, \"Even after tying up all the loose ends, López holds onto the idea of Ennis as a place where ghosts commune with the living, whether through fevered hallucinations or lingering guilt that flourishes in the dark like a mushroom.\"",
"Other reviews were more negative.",
"Tyler Johnson of ''TV Fanatic'' gave the episode a 2.5 star rating out of 5 and wrote, \"The show deserves to be lauded for its performances and the memorable visuals it mined from the frigid darkness, but its conclusion was as frustrating as an abandoned cold case.\"",
"Aja Romano of ''Vox'' wrote, \"The downgrade from Pizzolatto's season one craft to the clunky sophomoric writing of season four was probably avoidable.",
"If ''Night Country'' had just been allowed to be its own thing, without any pressure to either live up to season one or abide by its Weird parameters, it probably would have been a much better show.",
"We can't fault HBO for wanting to revive one of its best franchises.",
"But ''Night Country'' may ultimately go down as a reminder that sometimes it's best to let sleeping eldritch creations lie.\""

"Victor Macedo"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Victor Macedo''' was an administrator employed by Julio César Arana and his rubber firm between 1903-1910, during the Putumayo genocide.",
"He was the general manager of the Peruvian Amazon Company's agency at La Chorrera on the Igaraparaná River between 1907-1911.In June of 1911 there were 215 arrest warrants issued against employees of La Chorrera for their role in perpetrating the Putumayo genocide.",
"Macedo's arrest warrant was issued in June of that year and he was arrested in August, however a prefect of Lima released him from incarceration.",
"Macedo was later reported in 1914 to be in Bolivia near the border with Brazil, along with several ex-managers of La Chorrera's agency."
],
[
"Role in the Putumayo genocide",
"Macedo was employed by Julio César Arana and his rubber firm as an administrator at La Chorrera during the Putumayo genocide.",
"The rubber firms which controlled La Chorrera were dependent on an enslaved workforce to extract raw rubber which would then be sent to the port at La Chorrera.",
"Years before the Peruvian Amazon Company came into existence, one way rubber patrons like Macedo expanded their work force was trading metal tools like an axe or machete, for a year of work, or a ten year old child.",
"Another method frequently employed at La Chorrera's agency were slave raids, also referred to as correrías, where many natives were either captured or killed.",
"It was also said that Macedo was the man at La Chorrera who implemented the weight quota of rubber that was imposed against the native work force.",
"Some of the indigenous groups exploited at La Chorrera during Macedo's management of the agency include Huitotos, Andoques, Ocaina, Yurias, and Boras.Macedo was implicated in a massacre of Ocaina natives at La Chorrera in 1903, and this incident became the subject of a criminal complaint filed by journalist Benjamin Saldaña Rocca, which eventually led to more than 215 arrest warrants issued against employees of La Chorrera's agency in the Putumayo River basin.",
"The arrest warrant for Macedo was issued in July of 1911 by judge Carlos A. Valcarcel for his role in the atrocities that occurred in the Putumayo between 1903-1911 under his management.Rómulo Paredes, another judge who investigated the Putumayo genocide in 1911, believed that the first massacres in the region began under the Larrañaga's leadership, and they continued under the administration of Macedo.",
"In 1915, Valcarcel published a book titled ''El Proceso del Putumayo y sus secretos'' which covers their work investigating the Putumayo genocide, primarily at La Chorrera's agency and contains a portion of judge Paredes's report.",
"Chapter nine of ''El proceso'' examines the culpability of Macedo, Arana, Pablo Zumaeta, and Juan B. Vega for the conditions in the region, the evidence collected by the 1911 commission that incriminates the senior managers with the atrocities, as well as Paredes's explanation for why they were not prosecuted.",
"Judge Paredes became convinced that not only had crime in the Putumayo been committed with Macedo's knowledge and approval, but Macedo had also personally perpetrated crime and abuse against the natives.Roger Casement was sent by the British Foreign Office to investigate the role that Barbadian men employed at La Chorrera had in the atrocities occurring in the Putumayo, as well as reports of abuse against Barbadians.",
"Macedo organized multiple armed excursions against Colombians and natives during his management of the agency.",
"Barbadian men were on several of these raids and they later gave depositions to Casement, reporting crimes which they had witnessed, as well as perpetrated against the natives.",
"Casement interviewed a total of thirty Barbadians, many whom had worked around La Chorrera's agency for years and two of them told Casement that Macedo was aware of the crimes occurring in the region.",
"Casement wrote that \"Macedo was one of Arana's longest serving Chiefs of Section and had an established history of brutality.\"",
"Macedo and the managers under him were paid by the Peruvian Amazon Company on a commission based on how much rubber was collected in their respective sections.",
"Casement believed that Macedo received around ₤2,000-₤3,500 annually, and possibly even more than that from the Peruvian Amazon Company.",
"According to the \"pay list\" at La Chorrera in 1910, Macedo's salary was ₤30 a month along with a commission of %6 on the profit made from his agency.",
"Hardenburg emphasized that the company paying its employees by a commission incentivized them to collect and export as much rubber as possible in a short period of time, and this could either be done by paying the natives, or terrorizing them into submission.",
"He declared that since Arana's company did not believe in paying the natives for their labor, the \"rule of terror\" has been applied throughout the company's estate.Judge Paredes made a similar conclusion as Hardenburg regarding commissions paid out to the managers.",
"He believed these contracts incentivized the managers to exploit and extort the natives into collecting as much rubber as possible in a short period of time.",
"Indigenous men, women, children and elderly people were compelled to work for Arana's firm and they were subjected to cruel punishment or death when they failed to meet an the obligations imposed upon them.",
"The judge wrote \"hunger has been perhaps the most terrible scourge which has fallen on the Putumayo\" and he emphasized that the station chiefs did not allow the natives enough time to cultivate food to sustain themselves.During Macedo's management in 1906, there were around forty stations between the Igara-Paraná River and Caqueta River that delivered rubber to La Chorrera .",
"The natives under La Chorrera's agency suffered systematic starvation during Macedo's administration.",
"Several of Chorrera's stations suffered from famine due to the conditions imposed by the managers, notably at the stations of Atenas, Matanzas, Abisinia, and Ultimo Retiro.",
"The managers Elias Martinengui and Armando Normand both gave their natives little to no time to cultivate food.",
"While at Entre Rios in 1910, Casement wrote in his journal that \"Macedo is alleged to have said: 'The Indians are not here to plant chacaras.",
"They are here to get rubber.'\"",
"The word chacara refers to the gardens developed by the natives in the region.",
"Saldana, Casement, Hardenburg and Paredes had also collected information on several cases at Chorrera's agency where starvation was intentionally used as a means for capital punishment.",
"The use of cepos, a device similar to a pillory, was reported at La Chorrera, Matanzas, Entre Rios, Atenas, Ultimo Retiro, Abisinia, Occidente, Santa Catalina and other stations that were under Macedo's administration.Indigenous Witoto workers at one of Julio César Arana’s rubber plantations, photograph circa 1906.At the end of a list titled \"Names of the worst criminals on the Putumayo when I was there,\" Casement annotated: \"All the above were chiefs of section ie.",

"J.C. Arana y Hermanos",
"While the date that Victor Macedo arrived in the Putumayo region is unknown, Macedo was working with the Larrañaga family and Julio César Arana as early as 1903 at an important settlement located below a waterfall named \"Colonia Indiana\", which would later be known as La Chorrera.",
"In 1903 Julio Cesar Arana hired a French explorer named Eugène Robuchon to map out his estate in the Putumayo.",
"The map of this territory is shown in Robuchon's book \"En el Putumayo, y Sus Afluentes\" and it is written on the document that it was drawn up for Macedo, manager of the J.C. Arana y Hermanos firm at La Chorrera.",
"Benjamin Larranaga died at La Chorrera on December 22, 1903 and shortly afterward Arana acquired Rafael Larranaga's share of the estate.",
"Juan B. Vega and Arana continued their partnership and established \"Arana, Vega y Compania\" which employed Macedo as a manager at La Chorrera.Map of the J.C Arana y Hermanos estate between the Igara-Paraná and Caqueta RiversNear the end of 1904, the first group of Barbadian men hired by Arana's firm arrived in the Putumayo at La Chorrera.",
"This group was dispatched from La Chorrera on November 17 1904 to establish the station of Matanzas which would be located near the Caqueta River, in a territory inhabited by Andoque natives.",
"There were twenty-five Barbadian men and ten other men of different nationalities, including their Colombian manager Ramon Sanchez and Armando Normand, who was hired as an agent for the firm as well as a translator.Two of those Barbadians were physically abused by Normand and Sanchez.",
"''El Proceso'' includes a letter written by Macedo to a manager regarding two Barbadians who attempted to run away after they were tied up and mistreated.",
"Macedo wanted this manager to make it clear to the Barbadians that Ramon Sanchez was responsible for their abuse, and he emphasized that it would be detrimental if these Barbadians proceeded against Chorrera's agency.",
"While Sanchez was dismissed due to reports regarding the mistreatment of Barbadians, the agency of La Chorrera continued to employ Normand, and he eventually became the chief manager of Matanzas.Carrying materials for construction at La Chorrera, photograph circa 1906.Robuchon disappeared in the Putumayo in 1906 near ultimo Retiro in territory managed by La Chorrera's agency and it was rumored that Arana had him intentionally disappeared because he had taken incriminating photographs of abuse that was occurring in the region.",
"All of his photographs were taken around La Chorrera's territory, and several of the pictures would later be used as evidence of slavery and physical torment under Arana's firm.",
"Macedo is said to have conducted a census with the aid of an agent named Manuel Torrico and the estimation for 50,000 natives living in the Putumayo River basin, as recorded in Robuchon's book, may have come from this census.Flogging of a Putumayo native, carried out by the employees of Julio César AranaIn 1906, Macedo ordered Normand to organize a correria against a group of Colombians that were attempting to establish a rubber station near the Lower Caqueta.",
"This attack resulted in the capture to Aquileo Torres and around ten other Colombians that worked for the Urbano Gutiérrez rubber firm.",
"Some of the natives that were captured were clubbed to death.",
"Eight of the Colombians were sent to La Chorrera, which was under the management of Macedo at the time.",
"These Colombians were later taken on a company steamship and left with a canoe near the Brazilian border.",
"One of those Colombians, named Roso España, made a testimony to the authorities in Manaus regarding this incident, and stated that after twenty five natives were killed by Normand's group, they proceeded to murder the woman and children in the area.",
"Torres and two of the senior employees that worked for Urbano Gutierrez were kept at Abisinia as prisoners and suffered maltreatment.",
"Torres eventually consented to work for the company.Macedo was first publicly implicated in the Putumayo genocide by Benjamin Saldaña Rocca on August 9 1907 through a criminal petition he filed against eighteen members of the J.C. Arana y Hermanos firm.",
"Macedo was the first name on the list compiled by Saldaña.",
"Saldaña later decided to establish his own newspaper publications which he would use to publicly campaign against Arana's firm.",
"On August 22, the first issue of La Sancion included content from Saldaña's original petition and a letter from an ex-employee of La Chorrera's agency named Julio Muriedas.",
"This letter detailed his employment at Matanzas under Normand, and some of the methods of abuse he employed against the natives in his district, as well as the killing of these natives for not meeting a weight quota of rubber.",
"Saldaña claimed that Macedo and his counterpart Loayza were responsible for the crimes of \"swindling, robbery, incendiarism, poisoning and assassination\" that was aggravated by \"tortures by fire, water, the lash and mutilation\" occurring under their management.",
"The first issue also provided an account of the 1903 Ocaina massacre which claimed that Macedo as well as Loayza had orchestrated the killings.A group of Huitoto natives, forced to work on a plantation belonging to Julio César Arana, photograph circa 1906.Juan Castanos, a Saldaña deponent and manager of Porvenir, wanted passage to Iquitos so he could leave the Putumayo, however Macedo opposed this because Castanos did not have enough money to pay for the passage on the Liberal.",
"Castanos later obtained the funding to do so, however Zubiaur, captain of the Liberal, refused to have him on the ship.",
"Afterwards, his wife was dragged away and Macedo allowed her to be taken as a concubine by Bartolomé Zumaeta."

"Peruvian Amazon Company",
"On September 6, 1907 the Peruvian Amazon Company was founded by Arana along with several English investors, and this new organization acquired the assets of the Arana Hermanos firm.",
"At the time, Macedo was the general manager of La Chorrera's agency and he retained this position in the new company.",
"The document published by Carlos Rey de Castro mentioned that the agency consisted of forty rubber stations.On November 19, 1907 the statement of Reynaldo Torres appeared in an article ran by Saldaña, and he declared that the massacre of Ocainas in 1903 was directed by Macedo, Rafael Larranaga, as well as Jacob Barchillon and this incident was denounced by Aristides Rodriguez.",
"Macedo was arrested along with several other perpetrators of the massacre, however he managed to escape and travel through the Napo River and reach La Chorrera again.",
"Afterwards, the Arana company \"hushed things up\" by paying out half a million Peruvian soles, equal to ₤50,000 at the time, in bribes.",
"Torres clarified that the massacre was perpetrated against the Gacudo and Pinaje nations of the Ocaina people.",
"Torres wanted to leave the service of the company but was not permitted.",
"When the prefect Carlos Zapata inquired about this, Macedo stated that Torres was free to leave as long as he paid his debts, and at the time he could not afford to do so.La Felpa illustration depicting Victor Macedo and Juan B. VegaNear the end of 1907, the Peruvian Amazon Company published an essay written by Victor Macedo which established a narrative for the massacre of Ocaina natives in 1903.He claimed that there were only three Peruvian employees present, and throughout the entire essay he neglected to mention the Peruvian garrison at La Chorrera.",
"Macedo stated that the Colombians perpetrated this massacre and that since they were spewing anti-Peruvian sentiments, he did not leave his room, the same with Miguel S. Loayza.",
"This essay emphasized that Macedo and Loayza were junior employees..Saldaña was forced to flee Iquitos due to pressure from Arana, however an American engineer named Walter Ernest Hardenburg managed to obtain Saldaña's documents, and continue the work of the journalist.",
"Along with the testimonies Saldaña collected, Hardenburg managed to collect more than twenty depositions that reported crimes against indigenous peoples, perpetrated by Arana's firm.",
"By the time of Hardenburg's journey through the Putumayo in 1908, Macedo was the general manager of La Chorrera and the senior most employee of the agency.Peruvian Amazon Company employees at La Chorrera, Macedo is the third person that is seated from the right side.Daniel Collantes gave a deposition to Hardenburg, he was a fireman employed on a river launch owned by Arana in 1902 before Macedo gave him orders to transfer to a rubber station.",
"Collantes stated that he refused to do so because he was aware that crimes were perpetrated in the forest, and he was imprisoned at La Chorrera for ten days for his refusal.",
"When Collantes complained to Macedo, Macedo gave an order for Collantes to be whipped one hundred times, and for his mouth to be covered so he would not cry.",
"In his deposition Collantes declared that the massacre of Ocaina natives occurred 150 meters away from the headquarters at La Chorrera, and that there were forty natives, rather than thirty.",
"These natives arrived as prisoners and they were detained together in chains in a cell.",
"Collantes stated that at 4 A.M the next morning, Macedo ordered eighteen employees from the section of La Sabana to flog the imprisoned natives to death.",
"Hours later, Macedo gave the employees another order, to drag the natives out of the cell, shoot them, and then cremate their remains.",
"According to Collantes the collection of firewood and kerosine began at 9 A.M, and Macedo gave the order for the fire to begin at 12 A.M.Collantes wrote that shortly after the massacre he told Macedo that he wished to leave the company and journey to Iquitos, \"the reply this miserable criminal gave me was to threaten me with more chains and imprisonment, telling me that he was the only one who gave orders in this region and that all who lived here were subject to his commands.\"",
"Collantes also reported information on correria led by Jose Innocente Fonseca on Macedo's orders.",
"Macedo ordered Fonseca to organize a commission of twenty men to travel towards the Caqueta and kill any Colombians that they found there.",
"The members of this commission were told to bring back the fingers, ears, and decapitated heads of their victims.",
"These body parts were shown to Macedo and Miguel S. Loayza, the general manager of El Encanto's agency.",
"Celestino Lopez wrote to Hardenburg and declared he \"also saw Dancurt, the official executioner of La Chorrera, flog the poor Indians almost daily for the most trivial faults: all with the knowledge and approbation of Victor Macedo, manager of La Chorrera and Justice of the Peace of the Putumayo.",
"\"The Barbadian John Brown stated that during his time at La Chorrera, up until June of 1908, there were multiple instances of flagellation carried out by Dancurt against the natives.",
"Brown stated that he was sent away from La Chorrera multiple times to find natives and bring them back to the station so they would be flogged.",
"According to Brown, Macedo was present during some of these instances and the flagellation was carried out by his orders.",
"When Thomas Whiffen arrived at La Chorrera, the punishment of natives in public ceased \"and everything was done to hide from Capt.",
"Whiffen the true facts of the case.\"",
"The Barbadian James Chase believed that Macedo sent an agent towards each of the sections that Whiffen would be travelling through to give a \"warning to all the sections that things must be put straight\" so that Whiffen could not see anything incriminating the company.",
"Frederick Bishop, another Barbadian, reported that Whiffen's movements were monitored while he was in the Putumayo and any evidence of atrocities was \"cleared up\" before he would arrive at his next destination.",
"Whiffen was told that Macedo would be dismissed, and that reforms would be made.",
"In September 1909, Hardenburg began publishing a series of articles with a small newspaper named Truth.",
"The first of these articles was titled \"The Devil's Paradise: A British-Owned Congo\" which made a comparison between conditions in the Putumayo River basin and atrocities in the Congo Free State.",
"Some of Hardenburg's information that went into the article directly implicated station managers under Macedo with murder and torture.",
"In response to the Truth articles, the Peruvian Amazon Company decided to send a commercial commission to investigate the conditions in the region, and the British Foreign Office took the opportunity to attach Consul-general Roger Casement to inspect the treatment of Barbadian men in the region.",
"Prior to 1910, Macedo became justice of the peace in the Putumayo, which was a government position.Putumayo natives resting at La Chorrera after delivering rubber.",
"The rubber can be seen on the right.",
"Photograph circa 1912.There was a correria led by Augusto Jiménez Seminario from Ultimo Retiro across the Caqueta into Colombian territory in March of 1910, and this raid captured three Colombians and twenty one natives.",
"The raid was carried out under Macedo's direct orders.",
"There was a notice for a monetary gratification signed by Macedo, which was administered to members of the raid who Jimenez thought performed satisfactorily, the document was dated February 25, 1910.===Consular commission of 1910===Macedo and Juan A. Tízon received Casement and the company commissioners at La Chorrera on September 22 of 1910.Casement thought that if Macedo attended the interviews with the Barbadians, then he would attempt to make a formal \"enquiry\" for the courts in Iquitos to investigate them: with the intent that \"they would be made the scapegoats, both to justify Macedo and clear the Peruvian authorities too, and also to destroy any real evidence of the wholesale crimes that have been allowed for years in this unhappy region.\"",
"Casement decided to have Tizon present for the interviews, and while Macedo stood and listened at the door for a time, he was not invited so he walked off.",
"Casement also thought that Macedo would attempt to bribe the Barbadians to lie and deceive him.",
"A Barbadian named Frederick Bishop was able to convince many of the other Barbadians to testify to Casement before Macedo and Normand had the opportunity to coerce them into silence.",
"Bishop reported in his deposition that in January of 1909 Macedo had him \"put in guns\" which was a form of punishment that consists of detaining a person in an uncomfortable position, from which they are secured in place by several guns that form a triangle.",
"The victim is then whipped.",
"The order was carried out by the commander of La Chorrera's garrison, a captain of the Peruvian military.Bishop also stated \"Macedo knew what happened often in the sections, as he visited them and saw prisoners and flogging.",
"Donald Francis told Bishop that Macedo had threatened to have him shot if he reported anything against Macedo.",
"Macedo also promised to increase Francis's pay by ₤8 a month.",
"Besides the bribery attempt against Francis, Edward Crichlow as well as James Lane reported that Macedo offered them a bribe.",
"Casement asked Stanley Sealy why he did not report any of the crimes to Macedo, and Sealy said that there was no point in doing so because \"he had believed señor Macedo knew all about the wrong things done\".",
"Joshua Dyall provided the same reasoning as Sealy when Casement asked him if he reported any killings to Macedo.",
"Dyall had been physically abused by Alfredo Montt, \"badly flogged\", beaten with a gun, and when he complained about this treatment to Macedo, Macedo ordered him to go to Ulimto Retiro and he was threatened with getting tied up and flogged again.",
"Adolphus Gibbs told Casement that Augusto Jiménez and Macedo had both struck him because he wanted to leave the company.",
"Macedo gave an indigenous concubine to the Barbadian Evelyn Batson around November of 1908.A Barbadian named Norman Walcott told Casement that in November of 1909 he witnessed Victor Macedo flogging a young native man, around eighteen years old.",
"Walcott did not report any other cases of abuse to Roger Casement.",
"The ‘Mark of Arana’, scars from flagellation on the back of an indigenous boy, photograph circa 1910.At La Chorrera, Casement saw Macedo's son playing with a young girl whose father had been \"killed by his own muchachos\".",
"Casement believed that this case was representative of the relationship dynamic between the muchachos de confianza and their exploiters.",
"While discussing the accounts of the Barbadian men with Casement, Macedo offered to remove 25% of the debts they owed.",
"The total amount was over ₤800, and Casement estimated that would average around ₤42-43 per Barbadian.",
"Casement interpreted the bonification as a bribe meant to silence him.",
"Casement also noted that there were at least two agents that were sent by Macedo to warn the chiefs of sections about Casement's presence during his investigation.",
"According to Tizon, the station of Matanzas had been operating as a \"dead loss for some time\" by 1910.The commissions for Normand and Macedo, as well as the expenditure for the station's Matanzas necessities, including the salary for employees, absorbed all of the station's potential profits.While witnessing the arrival of the Sur fabrico in 1910, Casement had asked one young native, named Omarino if he would like journey to London with Casement.",
"Omarino agreed, and his captain requested a \"shirt and a pair of trousers...\" and this transaction for Omarino's freedom was sanctioned by Macedo.",
"Near the end of Casement's investigation there was an indigenous woman given to Abelardo Aguero as a gift by Macedo Macedo gifted Casement a chiviclis prior to his departure from La Chorrera in November.",
"After Casement's investigation in 1910, Pablo Zumaeta's brother-in-law, Amadeo Burga, succeeded Macedo as the justice of peace.",
"Macedo was also superseded by Tizon as the chief agent at La Chorrera.",
"While Casement was returning to Iquitos via the ''Liberal'', the ship stopped at a settlement named Recreio, at the mouth of the Yaguas River.",
"Casement witnessed four natives paddling in a canoe with a man and a woman, and the captain of the Liberal stated that the natives had been given away as a gift from Macedo.Photograph of the concubines of the Peruvian Amazon Company at La Chorrera, 1912===Judicial commission of 1911===Macedo travelled away from the Putumayo on the Liberal with O'Donnell and the Commercial Commission in February of 1911, prior to the arrival of the Rómulo Paredes at La Chorrera along with his judicial commission.",
"Macedo had around 80,000 soles, or around ₤8,000 after his dismissal from the Peruvian Amazon Company, ₤2,000 of which came from a 'special gratification' paid to him by Pablo Zumaeta.Macedo and another man named Zegarra were interrogated upon their arrival in Iquitos by the sub-prefect, however that individual claimed there wasn't any evidence against Macedo and Zegarra.In his statement at Iquitos, Macedo declared that he was not aware that the massacre occurred until the next day.",
"He claimed that he \"knew from references Benjamin Larrañaga and Loayza were present\" at the massacre, however he stated they could not prevent the massacre because Larrañaga was drunk at the time and Macedo and Loayza were a junior employees.",
"He also stated that there were twenty five victims of this massacre.",
"In his deposition, Macedo gave testimony to several killings made by Colombians in the region prior to 1907, most notably Crisostomo Hernandez and he also declared there was an uprising in 1905 at Ultimo Retiro instigated by Gregorio Calderón.",
"Macedo also accused Colombians of instigating the 1909 mutiny that led to the death of Buccelli.",
"Miguel Flores also participated in the massacre.",
"Flores had perpetrated so many killings against the natives at La Chorrera that Macedo reprimanded him for this, and told him to only kill the natives when they stopped delivering the rubber.In his statement, Isaac Escurra declared that he saw eleven native adults, ten men and one woman who had a child, who were imprisoned in the cepo next to Macedo's room.",
"Carlos Miranda had these natives whipped and after that they were kept in the cepo for three days without food.",
"Over the course of those three days, Escurra mentioned to Macedo that these natives should have been receiving something to eat, however they weren't given anything.",
"Macedo gave an order to have lime poured over the eleven natives after an employee complained that they were starting to smell bad, which was due to their wounds rotting.",
"Afterwards, Escurra stated that Macedo ignored the fate of these imprisoned natives.",
"In his deposition, Escurra also stated that he saw two heads of natives being consumed by dogs at La Chorrera, and according to Macedo the heads belonged to natives that had died from smallpox, Escurra did not believe that was the truth.",
"While eating at a table in La Chorrea along with Macedo and several other station chiefs, Escurra denounced the crimes he had witnessed Elias Martinengui commit at Atenas to Macedo, however he was told \"not to speak of those things in public, but to come to his office for a talk.\"",
"Macedo told Escurra that he knew everyone at the table was a criminal and he did not need to be told so.",
"Macedo declared that it would be impossible for work in the region to proceed if he hired decent people because the natives could only be dominated through rigor.",
"Valcarcel noted that this statement may explain why there were so many criminals in the Putumayo.",
"Escurra later went to a member of the Iquitos superior court who told him to keep quiet as well as that Arana was expected in Iquitos and Escurra could talk to him then.",
"Another man employed by La Chorrea's agency, named Jose Plaza denounced Alfredo Montt's crimes to Macedo, and in response Macedo sent Plaza to La Sabana, the station managed by Aristides Rodriguez.",
"''El Proceso del Putumayo y sus secretos inauditos'' contains eight different eyewitness accounts of the massacre, including one by Macedo.",
"Deponent Emilio Mozambite declared that Macedo witnessed the massacre however he did not participate.",
"He claimed that the massacre was directed by Rafael Larranaga, it was carried out as retribution for an uprising which occurred that year and resulted in the death of a Colombian rubber patron along with his employees.",
"Santiago Portocarrero declared that both Macedo and Loayza had knowledge of the crimes perpetrated in their agencies, Portocarrero was confident about this because he had overheard these bosses having a conversation about the crime.",
"Eusebio Pinedo also claimed Macedo and Loayza witnessed the massacre but did not participate.",
"Deponent Gregorio Arimuya declared that Macedo and Loayza witnessed the massacre but did not participate.",
"At the end of Arimuya's statement, he reported that there were Aymenes natives flogged by Peruvian soldiers, under the orders of a lieutenant Risco, at La Chorrera.",
"Esetan Angulo's testimony corroborated Arimuya's statement regarding Peruvian soldiers flogging natives at La Chorrera.",
"Fifteen natives suffered this punishment because they refused to collect rubber and in retaliation Rafael Larrañaga ordered them to be flogged.",
"Angulo stated some of the Peruvian soldiers garrisoned at Chorrera helped to carry out the flagellation.",
"This information regarding the Peruvian garrison at La Chorrera contradicts Macedo's claim from his 1907 statement where he said the Peruvians could not intervene during the massacre of Ocainas because there were only three Peruvians employees at La Chorrera .",
"The Peruvian garrison at La Chorrera was first established in 1902.The judge investigated the scene of the 1903 Ocaina massacre at La Chorrera, and collected enough evidence to confirm that the massacre had actually taken place.",
"The massacre of Puineses and Renuicueses natives that occurred in 1903 at La Chorrera was also confirmed, and again there was a large amount of bones discovered, there was also evidence that a fire had occurred in that location.",
"After interviewing Macedo and several other Peruvian Amazon Company employees in 1911, the judge determined \"although Macedo and Loayza witnessed these events, it has not been proven that they took part in it.",
"\"Evidence collected by the Paredes commission in 1911Paredes wrote that \"according to the evidence taken in the enquiry it would seem that the fire massacre ('hecatombe') in La Chorrera gave rise to these chiefs.",
"The execution of thirty Ocainas Indians, tortured and burned alive, was thus a sort of patent, a diploma for governing sanctions.\"",
"Casement, based on the information he examined, believed that \"this crime was committed by Victor Macedo's direction, and on the strength of this act of fortitude he became eventually the chief of all sections as general manager at La Chorrera, deriving from his presidency of crime an income of well over 3,000 a year.",
"\"Paredes mentioned that a population which was estimated by Carlos Rey de Castro to be at 50,000 natives had fallen down to 8,000 in the Putumayo River basin between 1906-1911.The Peruvian Amazon Company prospectus issued in 1907 claimed that there were 40,000 \"Indian ‘labourers'\" in the region at the time.Paredes declared that he spared no effort in attempting to capture several of the \"worst criminals\", however he stated, Macedo had assisted them in escaping from the region prior to the judge's arrival.",
"After emphasizing that Macedo wrote a letter to the prefect of Loreto denying that the massacre in 1903 occurred, Paredes wrote that \"it is perfectly defined that Macedo is a concealer of such crimes: that furthermore Macedo has taken advantage of and assisted the criminals to take advantage of the crime.",
"\"Following the Paredes investigation, there were three sets of arrest warrants issued against men who had worked in the Putumayo for Arana's rubber firm.",
"The first set was issued against twenty two individuals that were implicated with the massacre of Ocaina natives in September of 1903, charging them with \"the crime of flogging and flaying thirty Ocaina Indians and then burning them alive.\"",
"The second set of warrants was issued on June 29 against 215 individuals employed under La Chorrera's agency.Macedo's arrest warrant was issued by judge Valcárcel on July 29, 1911 along a warrant for Pablo Zumaeta and several other Peruvian Amazon Company employees that Paredes did not proceed against.",
"In august, the mayor of Lima and the prefect of Callao both sent telegraphs to the Paredes with a request to dismiss the arrest warrant against Macedo.",
"One of these telegrams insinuated that Macedo had influential friends in Lima.",
"Seymour Bell, a member of the 1910 commission, stated that members of the Peruvian Congress had also sent telegraphs protesting Macedo's arrest warrant.",
"Casement's source stated that Macedo was in Lima between October-September of 1911.Lucien Jerome, an English consul general at Lima, stated that Macedo had been living openly in the city.",
"He noted that when the local authorities investigated his last known address, there was no sign of him however it was determined that he had recently left.Judge Paredes later showed several telegrams to Casement that were sent from \"highly placed individuals in Lima\" which were requesting the dismissal of Macedo's warrant.",
"Several of these individuals include Hildebrando Fuentes - deputy to congress, Ingoyen Canseco - deputy to congress, and Emilio Rodriguez Larrain - secretary to the President of Peru.",
"Larrain had sent a telegraph to a member of the Iquitos courts requesting to know why there was a warrant issued against Macedo, and he also requested for that warrant to be dismissed.",
"This led Valcárcel to believe that Larrain was responsible for Macedo's release.",
"A former prefect of Lima named Pedro Garezon reported that Macedo had been captured, however Garezon released Macedo instead of sending him to Iquitos.",
"Julio Ego-Aguirre, who succeeded Garezon as the prefect of Lima and also served as the lawyer for Julio César Arana reported \"that he had not found Macedo in detention\" when he was asked to send Macedo to Iquitos.",
"Paredes issued the warrant on the basis of a Peruvian law which states \"when there is a corpus delicti, simple indications of guilt are sufficient to order the arrest of the accused.",
"\"Eduardo and Francisco Lanatta were employed as lawyers in Iquitos for Macedo during the judicial proceedings against him.",
"There were allegations that the Lanatta brothers had an unofficial business dealings with Paredes, however Paredes refuted this in ''El Proceso'', noting that he would not have issued an arrest warrant for Macedo if there was an agreement between the Lanatta brothers and him.",
"Valcárcel was dismissed from his office on October 31st, 1911 by the Superior Court of Iquitos.",
"===Later life===Macedo was reported to have secured passage on a ship heading towards Barbados in November of 1911, and from there he travelled to Manaus.",
"Armando Normand and several other Peruvian Amazon Company employees were spotted in Manaus by a Barbadian informant that wrote to Casement.",
"In December of 1911 Macedo was reported to have been in Manaus again \"along with Arana\" however the nature of this encounter was unknown to Casement's informant.",
"Near the end of 1911, Macedo went to Iquitos to defend himself in court, and Casement remarked that \"the Superior Court will probably go down in a body to greet him & have him to dinner.",
"\"On October 17th of 1912, it was reported that Jimenez and Macedo were at Cobiga together, and Aguero was nearby.",
"In 1914, ''The Anti-Slavery reporter and aborigines' friend'' published an article titled \"The Putumayo Criminals\" which was based on details provided by one of their informants.",
"This informant stated that Victor Macedo was frequently travelling around Manaus, the Japury River, and the Acre River, with financial assistance for his activities provided by Arana.",
"Macedo was also travelling with E. Mozambite, presumably Emilio Mozambite, and Fidel Velarde, one of his station chiefs.",
"Abelardo Aguero, Augusto Jiménez, and Carlos Miranda, three of Macedo's station chiefs at La Chorrera, were also in Bolivia, close to the border with Brazil, where they continued to exploit natives in order to extract rubber.",
"Jimenez and Aguero were both arrested in April of 1914 on an estate belonging to the rubber baron Nicolás Suárez Callaú, however the Bolivian Consul that reported their arrest declared that Macedo had left the area prior to the arrival of authorities.",
"After April of 1914 there were no further reports regarding the whereabouts of Macedo."

"On April 27, 1872, the veterinary sector was separated from the Ministry of the Interior and assigned to the Ministry of Agriculture.",
"With effect from the decrees of April 10, 1874 and August 13, 1876, the ministry was assigned the supervision of agricultural credit institutions and participation in the supervision of non-agricultural basic credit institutions.By further Royal decree of August 7, 1878 and, by law of March 13, 1879, the domains and forests areas were separated from the Ministry of Finance and integrated into the Ministry of Agriculture, which was at the same time renamed the Prussian Ministry for Agriculture, Domains and Forests.At the turn of the century, the ministry was divided into three departments: the department for agricultural and stud farm affairs, the department for domains and the department for forestry and hunting matters.",
"The department for agricultural and stud farm affairs was responsible for supervising the state economics college, the agricultural colleges, the higher regional cultural court, the central moor commission, the agricultural credit institutions, the main and state stud farms as well as the technical deputation for the veterinary sector along with the veterinary universities in Berlin.",
"The department for forestry and hunting matters supervised the forestry examination commission and the forestry academies.===Post World War I===After World War I, the ministry continued to exist in the Free State of Prussia with offices at Leipziger Platz, which was expanded between 1913 and 1919 with an extension at Königgrätzer Straße (from 1930 Stresemannstraße).",
"In the course of the dissolution of the Ministry of Public Works, the departments for Water Management and Water Law were assigned to the Ministry of Agriculture in 1921.The ministry was later divided into the central office, the central administration of the Department of Domains and Forestry, the Agriculture Department, the Domain Department, the Forestry Department, the Stud Farm Department, the Veterinary Department and the Water Management Department.On January 1, 1935, the ministry was incorporated into the Reich Ministry of Food and Agriculture, which was founded in 1919 and was called the \"Reich and Prussian Ministry for Food and Agriculture\" until 1938."

"The Turtle (Native American Center for the Living Arts)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''The Turtle''', also known as the '''Turtle Building''' or the '''Native American Center for the Living Arts''', is a three-story building in Niagara Falls, New York.",
"The building was opened in May 1981 as the headquarters for the Native American Center for the Living Arts, an organization dedicated to promoting Native American visual and performing arts.",
"Its unique shape, with a geodesic dome roof \"shell\" and large porthole \"eye\" windows, invokes the Iroquois creation story of the earth forming on the back of a giant turtle.",
"After closing in 1995 due to financial trouble, the building has remained vacant, with its future preservation and use in question."
],
[
"Organization foundation and building construction",
"In May 1970, Tuscarora sculptor Wilmer \"Duffy\" Wilson and a group of Native Americans including Buffy Sainte-Marie founded the Native American Center for the Living Arts (NACLA) in New York City.",
"Their motivation was to promote the preservation of the visual and performing arts of Native American peoples and to encourage the development of new forms of creative expression.",
"Wilson moved the center to a storefront in Niagara Falls in 1975 which included an art gallery, handicraft shop, and museum exhibit space.",
"Support from the community inspired the idea of the construction of a permanent structure dedicated to Native American culture.",
"The center submitted a proposal to the Economic Development Administration and secured a $4.9 million grant.The shape of the building was envisioned by Wilson and his coworker, and reflects the Iroquois creation story of muskrat bringing a piece of the earth from below the water, creating the Western hemisphere on the back of a giant turtle.",
"The use of the symbolic design is emblematic of twentieth-century Native American architecture, as The Turtle joined other zoomorphic buildings such as the Cornwall Island (Ahkwesahsne Mohawk) School in Ontario.",
"The large porthole windows act as eyes which gaze toward the Upper Niagara River Rapids, while the geodesic dome roof contains a skylight in the shape of an eagle.",
"The location of the building, the closest structure to the American side of Niagara Falls, was chosen because of the proximity to tourist activity as well as the fact that the Iroquois saw the Falls as a sacred site.",
"The architect, Dennis Sun Rhodes of the Northern Arapaho, would go on to design other Indigenous centers such as the Minneapolis American Indian Center and the Piya Wiconi Building at Oglala Lakota College on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.",
"Groundbreaking ceremonies were held on the site in September 1977.Inflation in the late 1970s caused the building to open a year behind schedule and about $750,000 over budget."
],
[
"The Turtle as site of the Native American Center for the Living Arts",
"The Turtle opened to the public in May 1981; at the time, NACLA was the largest center for Indigenous arts in the Eastern United States.",
"It housed displays of Native artifacts and art, as well as hosting film and theatrical presentations.",
"The center sponsored craft shows and held dance performances and powwows in a large amphitheater.",
"NACLA had a library and published ''Turtle Quarterly'', a glossy arts and current affairs magazine that was funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.",
"During its heyday, the Turtle housed a craft shop, a restaurant, gallery space, offices and meeting rooms for the community."
],
[
"Closure",
"In 1989, the organization laid off employees after state subsidies no longer covered the cost of running the building.",
"In May 1993, most of the building's power was shut off when unpaid electrical bills reached $100,000.The center formally closed in 1995, in part due to the declining manufacturing economy of the city.",
"Many exhibited items were auctioned off to pay the federal tax bill.",
"The University at Buffalo offered to take over the building and operate it as a Native American cultural center, but city leaders rejected the offer because it did not include payment of the center's back taxes.",
"The city foreclosed on the building in April 1996.At the city's request, the building was purchased in 1997 for $1,000,000 by Niagara Falls Redevelopment (NFR), a real estate company owned by the Milstein family, along with development rights to much of the city."
],
[
"Preservation efforts",
"In 2000, NFR announced plans to develop the building into a museum with plans to apply for partnership with the Smithsonian Institution, but those plans never came to fruition.",
"In 2017, NFR requested that the city allow a variance from the downtown height limits to tear down the Turtle and build a 20-story hotel, but city officials did not grant that request.Preservation Buffalo Niagara began a campaign in the summer of 2022 to encourage the Niagara Falls City Council to approve a landmark designation for the building."
