Victor (, 1630/1635–1697)  was a painter active during the 17th century.  He represented the late Cretan school.  He was influenced by Michael Damaskinos.  He kept his style simple and followed the lines of the improved maniera greca which was heavily influenced by the Venetian school.  One of his main influences was Michael Damaskinos.  He was active when four different artists used the name Victor.  He has a huge catalog of work attributed to him.   According to the Neo-Hellenic Institute, ninety-five of his paintings and one fresco survived.  He was an extremely popular Greek icon painter.

History
Victor was born in Heraklion.  He was a monk.  He worked and lived in Chandaka.  He was a priest at the Church of Agios Ioannis church of Mertzeroi Fraternity in Candia.  He was active from 1651 to 1697.  Not much is known about the artist aside from records and historical research dealing primarily with his signature.  He signed his artwork in different ways either ΧΕΙΡ ΒΙΚΤΟΡΟΣ, ΧΕΙΡ ΒΙΚΤΩΡΟΣ and  ΧΕΙΡ ΒΙΚΤΩ­ΡΟΣ ΙΕΡΕΩΣ.  He was extremely popular and many of his icons still exist.

Victor painted an icon for Antonio Boubouli around 1653–1654.  He was the priest at San Giorgio dei Greci in Venice.  He painted the Virgin and Child (Kardiotissa).  It is unclear if Victor traveled to Venice.  Although they did order two paintings of The Morosini Banner.  Konstantinos Tzanes, Emmanuel Tzanes and Philotheos Skoufos.  Were three Greek painters that migrated to Venice around the same period.  Towards the end of his life, Victor traveled to the Peloponnese.  The evidence is in the frescos at the  Monastery of the Philosopher at Dimitsana.  In the same church, they have a large assortment of portable icons with his signature.  He had a special relationship with Saint Catherine's Monastery or  the Sacred Monastery of the God-Trodden Mount Sinai Egypt.

There are a large number of icons attributed to this artist.  His workshop was extremely popular.  He specialized in portable icons.  His work has a large degree of sophistication.  His art does not fall in line with the traditional maniera greca which resembles  Theophanes the Greek, Manuel Panselinos, and Ioannis Pagomenos.  His work mostly resembles the Cretan school of the 16th century.  The school by this time was heavily influenced by the Venetian school.  Michael Damaskinos closely resembles some of Victor's work.  Victor's Saint Catherine bears a resemblance to Philotheos Skoufos's Saint Catherine.  Another similar painting between the two artists is The Stoning of Saint Steven.  He was active in Zakynthos towards the end of his life.

The Rhinophrynidae are a family of frogs containing one extant genus, the monotypic Rhinophrynus, and a number of fossil genera. The family is sometimes known as the Mexican burrowing toads or simply burrowing toads.

Rhinophrynus occurs in the Central America north from Costa Rica to Mexico and Texas. Fossil finds of Rhinophrynidae come from Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Rhinophrynus is a burrowing ant and termite eater.

Systematics
The Rhinophrynidae are the sister taxon of the Pipidae. The clade formed by these two genera is sometimes referred to as Xenoanura or superfamily Pipoidea.

Genera
Extant genera:
 Rhinophrynus or Mexican burrowing toad

Fossil genera:
 †Chelomophrynus Henrici 1991 Wagon Bed Formation, Wyoming United States, Eocene

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4½ stars stating "Easy Living is a relaxed, low-key affair that is nonetheless fully engaged and deceptive in its pastoral appearance... for all of its warmth and beauty, for all of its free-flowing interplay between the front line and the shimmering rhythms, this is as adventurous and poetic as jazz can be in the new century".

Dreyfus is an American investment management company that deals with investment products and strategies. It was established in 1951 and is currently headquartered in New York City. 

Dreyfus currently is a subsidiary of BNY Mellon Investment Management.

History

The firm's origin dates back to 1947, when investor Jack Dreyfus founded a brokerage house in New York City named Dreyfus & Co.

In 1951, attracted by the concept of mutual funds, Dreyfus & Co. purchased a small management company named John G. Nesbett & Co., Inc. with a small common stock fund called The Nesbett Fund Incorporated. Nesbett & Co. was renamed The Dreyfus Corporation, and The Nesbett Fund became The Dreyfus Fund Incorporated.

Going public in 1965, Dreyfus was among the first money management firms to tap into the stock market for additional capital.

In 1976, Dreyfus was among the first fund companies to introduce an incorporated tax-exempt municipal bond fund.

In 1994, Dreyfus completed its landmark merger with Mellon Bank Corporation, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation. The merger, a milestone in the history of financial services in the United States, was at the time the largest-ever combination of a bank and mutual fund company.

On July 1, 2007, The Bank of New York Company, Inc. and Mellon Financial Corporation merged to form a new company The Bank of New York Mellon, one of the world's largest global asset management and securities services companies. The reach of Dreyfus' distribution capabilities now extends to the resources of BNY Mellon and its exclusive network of institutional asset managers.

Current operations

As a BNY Mellon company, Dreyfus provides access to its global network of asset managers, delivering investment insight and products — equity, fixed income, global/international and money market mutual funds, separately managed accounts, retirement and cash management strategies, asset allocation solutions and brokerage services. Dreyfus products are delivered through a variety of distribution channels: intermediary (advisor-sold), institutional, and retail direct.

The Memorial to the Victims of the Deportation of 1944 (Chechen: 1944 шарахь дIабохийначеран хIоллам, Russian: Мемориал жертвам депортации 1944 года) was a Chechen memorial in the center of Grozny, capital of Chechnya, opened in 1992 to commemorate the Chechen victims of the Stalinist regime during and following their forced relocation to Central Asia in February 1944. The monument was sculpted by Chechen sculptor Darchi Khaskhanov.

Partially destroyed by bombing of the Russian army during the period 1994-1996 and 1999-2000, the memorial complex was again defaced in an attempt to demolish it conducted in 2008 by the authorities. At the time, the uproar of human rights defenders at this "barbarism" and "vandalism" saved "the only really Chechen monument of the city" from the complete demolition, although, inevitably regarded as a symbol of independence, it was then enclosed by a fence, so that nothing was indicating to the uninitiated that a memorial or anything else was out there somewhere.

However, in February 2014, on the eve of the 70th anniversary of the deportation of the Chechen people, the memorial was finally and secretly dismantled "by order from above". Tombstones which were an integral part of the composition were found planted on the Akhmad Kadyrov Place next to granite steles honoring the losses of the local pro-Russian power.

Edward Francis Rook (September 21, 1870 New York City – October 25, 1960 Old Lyme, Connecticut) was an American Impressionist landscape and marine painter, and a member of the art colony at Old Lyme, Connecticut.

Biography
Rook studied at the Art Students League of New York, 1889–91, under John Twachtman. He studied further in Paris at the Académie Julian under Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant and Jean-Paul Laurens, then at the École des Beaux-Arts under Jean-Léon Gérôme.

Rook returned to the United States in 1900, and married a childhood friend, Edith Stone, in 1901. They travelled to Canada and California, and spent close to a year in Mexico. Rook had known Childe Hassam in France, and painted with him at Old Lyme during the summer of 1903. After living in New York City, the Rooks settled in Old Lyme in April 1905.

Rook was a recluse and a bit of an eccentric. In Henry Rankin Poore's mural The Fox Chase (1905), at the Florence Griswold Museum, he is depicted in the background, carrying two large canvases and ignoring the tomfoolery of the other artists. Rook collected cars and built a house around his garage, although he never learned to drive.

Exhibitions, awards and honors
Rook exhibited one work, Moonrise, Normandy, at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois. He exhibited regularly at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts from 1897 to 1913 and 1917 to 1919, which awarded him its 1898 Temple Gold Medal (for Pearl Clouds—Moonlight). He was awarded a bronze medal at the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York (for Pearl Clouds—Moonlight, The Mountain Brook, and The Inn—Moonlight); two silver medals at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri (for his oil-on-canvas landscapes of Mexico, and for a pastel: Horse Market); a silver medal at the 1910 Exposición Internacional del Centenario in Buenos Aires, Argentina (for Canada in Snow); and a gold medal at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exhibition in San Francisco (for Snow, Ice and Foam). The Corcoran Gallery of Art awarded him its 1919 bronze medal (for Peonies). He exhibited at the Lyme Art Association from 1904 to 1943, which awarded him its 1929 first prize (for Reflections in a Samovar).

He was elected an Associate of the National Academy of Design in 1908, and an Academician in 1924.

A retrospective exhibition of Rook's work was held at the Florence Griswold Museum in 1987, which holds a number of his works. His works are also in the collections of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the National Academy Museum, the Cincinnati Art Museum, the New Britain Museum of American Art and other museums, along with various Connecticut institutions.
