People People planner Museum exhibit focuses on terrorism in U.S.
Spies, Traitors and Saboteurs: Fear and Freedom in America, a special exhibition from the International Spy Museum, opened Feb.6 and runs through May 8 at the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park. This 6,000 square-foot exhibit provides a historic perspective on acts of terror that have taken place on American soil. Spies, Traitors and Saboteurs reveals nine major events and periods in U.S. history when Americans were threated by enemies within its borders. It depicts who the government and public responded, illustrates the corresponding evolution of U.S. counterintelligence and homeland security efforts and examines the challenge of securing the nation without compromising the civil liberties upon which it was founded. • Aug. 24, 1814 – The City of Washington Captured and the While House Burned. During the War of 1812, the city of Washington was captured and the White House, the U.S. Capitol and other major buildings were torched by British troops aided with information provided by a few Americans. • July 30, 1916 – Manhattan Hit by Massive Explosions in New York Harbor. German secret agents, aided by American collaborators, blew up a munitions depot in New York Harbor, showering Manhattan and the Statute of Liberty with shrapnel and debris. Acts of German sabotage on American soil like this contributed to America's entry into World War I and inspired the passage of the 1918 Espionage Act still in effect today and the growth of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. • June 2, 1919 – Anarchist Bombs Target American Leaders. When the home of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer was bomb by an
anarchist and plots for more bombings were revealed, both the public and the government clamored for tighter law enforcement and more restrictive legislation for immigrants, resulting in the roundups, deportations and public outrage associated with the now infamous Palmer Raids. • Aug. 8, 1925 – 30,000 Ku Klux Klan Members Parade Down Pennsylvania Avenue. The nation's oldest hate group, the Ku Klux Klan, has risen three times in the nation's history. Each time, the group changed, evolving from small vigilante circles to huge violent organizations. They began inflicting terror on former slaves after the Civil War and grew into a politically powerful organization of 4 million that expanded its targets to include immigrants, Jews and Catholics in the 1920s. In the 1960s, they began attacking African Americans and civil rights workers. Today, a diminished Klan is only one among many white supremacist groups. • Dec. 7, 1941 – American Helps Japanese Pilot Terrorize Hawaiian Island After Pearl harbor. A Japanese pilot returning from the Pearl Harbor attack crash-landed on the Hawaiian Island of Nihau, and with support of a Japanese-American, took hostages and terrorized the community. The incident, little remembered today, perpetuated fears about Japanese Americans. Fears that ultimately led to the unprecedented incarceration of thousands. • April, 1945 – The Kremlin Launches One of the First Cold War Attacks Against the U.S. Near the end of World War II, the Kremlin harshly condemned American Communists for softening their commitment to a worldwide communist revolution. The Communist Party of the United States snapped to action, ousting its moderate leader and re-establishing itself as a highly militant and subversive organization, fueling America's fears that American
Worn by the Klan "Kladd," the elected officer who presided over the secret rituals and ceremonies of the Ku Klux Klan. • Klan "business cards" – Ominous warnings to innocent American families that their every move was being watched. • Weather Underground Video Presentation – Featuring an exclusive interview with ex-Weather Underground member Bernadine Dohrn, filmed for the exhibition. • Fragments of Planes that hit the World Trade Center – Recovered following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and used as evidence by the FBI in their ensuing investigation. • Under Siege – A powerful eight-minute film exploring the terrorist threat today, initiatives by the U.S. government to root out terrorists elements in the U.S., the balance between civil liberties and national security, and the impact on the daily lives of Americans. It features a range of interviews with leading thinkers including Daniel Pipes, Director of the Middle East Forum; Akbar S. Ahmed, the Ibn Khaldun Chair of Islamic Studies and Professor of International Relations at American University in Washington, D.C.,; Steven Emerson, terrorist expert and investigator and Morris Dees, co-founder and Chief Trial Counsel of the Southern Poverty Law Center. • Visitor Polling Station – This unique computer interactive provides visitors the opportunity to express their own opinions on questions raised in the exhibition about how the nation has responded to the historical events presented. The questions were developed in consultation with the Gallup Organization and additional historical questions can enable visitors to see how Americans responded to similar questions posed by the Gallup Poll at that time in history.
Communists would become Stalin's tool to overthrow the U.S. government. • March 1, 1971 – Radical Group Explodes Bomb in the U.S. Capitol. Protests over the war in Vietnam and civil rights turned violent during the "days of rage" and extremist groups, such as the Weather Underground and Black Liberation Army, took action. • April 19, 1995 – Massive Bomb Destroys Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The Oklahoma City bombing, the deadliest act of terrorism on U.S. soil in the 20th century, awakened Americans to threats posed by domestic extremists, especially the virulently anti-government right-wing groups. • Beyond Sept. 11th – Terrorism Today. In the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, initiatives by the U.S. government to root out terrorist elements in the country have irrevocably changed the lives of Americans. Spies, Traitors and Saboteurs supports these stories with historic photographs, themed environments, interactive displays, film, artifacts and video. Exhibit highlights include: • A timeline that traces over 80 acts of terror that have taken place in the U.S. from 1776 to today, including the Revolutionary War plot to kidnap George Washington, the vents of Bloody Kansas prior to the Civil War, John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry, the 1960s church bombings in the South and the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. • APL Badge and ID Card (1917) – Carried by operatives of the American Protective League who spied on their fellow Americans on behalf of the U.S. Justice Department during World War I. • Anarchist Globe Bomb (circa 1886) – Presented evidence in the trial of the men tried in connection with Chicago Haymarket riot (replica). • Ritual Klan Red Robe (circa 1965) –

People People planner The Fox to host Garrison Keillor
T h e F a b u l o u s F o x T h e a t re proudly presents host/producer Garrison Keillor & friends live at the Fox Theatre in St. Louis for the final time at 4:45 p.m. on June 18 for the popular weekly radio broadcast, A Prairie Home Companion. This performance will be the last time Garrison Keillor will host A Prairie Home Companion in St. Louis. Tickets are $68, $58, $38 nad are available online at metrotix.com, by calling 314-534-1111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office. If you showed up on July 6, 1974, at the Janet Wallace Auditorium at Macalester College in Saint Paul and plunked down your $1 admission (50 cents for kids) to attend the very first broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion, you were in select company. There were about 12 people in the audience. But those in attendance thought there were worse ways to spend a Saturday afternoon, so Garrison Keillor and the APHC team went on to produce close to 500 live shows in the first 10 years alone. There were broadcasts from this venue and that, until March 4, 1978, when the show moved to The World Theater, a lovely, crumbling building that was one plaster crack away from the wrecking ball. (Now fully renovated and renamed The Fitzgerald, it is the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home base.) In June of 1987, APHC ended for a while. Garrison thought it was a good idea at the time, but only two years later, the show was back, based in New York and called American Radio Company of the Air. But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no place like home. So in 1992, it was back to Minnesota
and, soon after, back to the old name:A Prairie Home Companion. T h e re h a s b e e n p l e n t y o f adventure in the past 40-plus years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; broadcasts from Canada, Ireland, S c o t l a n d , E n g l a n d , G e r m a n y, Iceland and almost every one of the 50 states; wonderful performers, little-known and world-renowned; standing ovations and stares of b e w i l d e r m e n t . We â&#x20AC;&#x2122; v e m i s s e d planes, coped with lost luggage, dodged swooping bats and hungry mosquitoes, plodded through blizzards, and flown by the seat of our pants. To d a y, A P r a i r i e H o m e Companion is heard by 4 million listeners each week on nearly 700 public radio stations, online, and on the American Forces Networks, SiriusXM Radio, Radio New Zealand, and KPRG in Guam. Garrison recalls, â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the show started, it was something funny to do with my friends, and then it became an achievement that I hoped would be successful, and now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good way of life.â&#x20AC;? A Prairie Home Companion is produced by Prairie Home P ro d u c t i o n s , a n d d i s t r i b u t e d nationwide by American Public Media. The program is underwritten by Ford. Garrison Keillor was born in 1942 in Anoka, Minnesota, and began his radio career as a freshman at the University of Minnesota, from which he graduated in 1966. He went to work for Minnesota Public Radio in 1969, and on July 6, 1974, he hosted the first broadcast of A Prairie Home Companion in St. Paul. Today, some 4 million listeners on more than 600 public radio stations coast to coast and beyond tune in to the show each
week. Keillor has been honored with Grammy, ACE, and George Foster Peabody awards, the National Humanities Medal, and election to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His many books include Lake Wobegon Days, The Book of Guys, Pilgrims: A Wobegon Romance, Guy Noir and the Straight Skinny, and The Keillor Reader (Viking). He is the host of the daily program The Writerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Almanac and the editor of several anthologies of poetry, most recently,Good Poems: American Places (Viking). In 2006, Keillor played himself in the movie adaptation of his show, a film directed by Robert Altman. He has two grandsons and in 2007, he opened an independent bookstore, Common Good Books, in St. Paul, the city where he and his wife and daughter make their home.
MoBOT to host Orchid Show
Journey into an orchid-filled world and learn more about these amazing plants during the 2016 Orchid Show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where Wild Things Grow.â&#x20AC;? The Orchid Show runs Feb. 6 to March 27, 2016. At every turn, orchids burst from the landscape with bright, bold colors. Approximately 500 orchids are on display at any one time, including Cattleya, Laelia, Encyclia, Oncidium and Paphiopedilum along with many other varieties. Spanning a wide range of sizes, colors and scents, these orchids are displayed as they would be found in their natural habitats, with terrestrial orchids at ground level and epiphytic orchids suspended atop tree branches. Hundreds of other tropical plants and ferns help

set the verdant scene. This year â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Orchid Show offers visitors the chance to learn more about the habitats of orchids and h ow t h e y a da p t t o ch a n g i n g environments. The Missouri Botanical Gardenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work including research, discovery, conservation and restoration of orchids will be presented with interpretation encompassed in the beautiful display. Orchids are found on every continent of the world except A ntarctica, with the greatest diversity found in the tropics. Most tropical orchids grow on other plants and derive moisture and nutrients form the air. Orchids found in more temperate regions are terrestrial, growing out of the ground rather than on other plants. Some orchids grow on long vines, and in a variety of conditions including deserts and rain forests. Orchids are valued by collectors because of their beauty which has led to some species becoming endangered due to over-collecting in the wild. The Garden works diligently to protect those at-risk species though conservation and recovery programs in the United States and around the world. Throughout the year, Missouri Botanical Garden horticulturists care for the collection behind the scenes in the private greenhouse range. Temperatures inside greenhouses are manipulated to force the winter bloom of as many plants as possible
for the annual Orchid Show. Orchids are grouped by watering needs and different fertilizers are used depending on the season. Spent blooms are replaced with new ones on a daily basis, shifting the look and landscape of the show throughout its run. Photographers are welcome to use hand-held cameras to capture the Orchid Show for personal enjoyment; tripod and monopod usage is not permitted indoors. Orchid Show admission is $5 per person (ages 3 and older), in addition to general Garden admission ($8 for adults; $4 for St. Louis City and County residents, with free admission Wednesdays and Saturdays until noon; free for children ages 12 and younger). Missouri Botanical Garden members enjoy free general admission along with free Orchid Show admission. The Missouri Botanical Garden is located at 4344 Shaw Blvd. in south St. Louis, accessible from Interstate 44 at the Vandeventer exit and from Interstate 64 at the Kingshighway North and South exit.

Religion Religion briefs IS gets millions in ransom for abducted Christians
BEIRUT (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Islamic State group has collected millions of dollars in ransom for a group of Assyrian Christians it kidnapped in Syria a year ago. That's according to Christian officials and an opposition group. The last of the 230 hostages are just being freed. The release ended a yearlong saga for the Christians â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of them women and children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; during which families had no news from their loved ones. Yo u n a n Ta l i a , o f t h e A s s y r i a n D e m o c r a t i c Organization, told The Associated Press that about 40 remaining captives were released early Monday and arrived in the northeastern town of Tal Tamr. He said the release came after mediation led by a top Assyrian priest in northern Syria. The extremists captured the Assyrians, members of an ancient Christian sect, last February after overrunning several communities.

Cruz told reporters in Las Vegas that he asked for Rick Tyler's resignation. The Texas senator says Tyler
is "a good man" and deleted the tweet once he found it was false. But Cruz says the resignation was necessary because c a m p a i g n s t a n d a rd s w e re c l e a r t o a l l s t a ff e r s . H e said the tweet was wrong even if the story had been true. Cruz says he won't question the faith of another candidate. The shakeup came after Rubio questioned if there would be accountability for the incident. Rubio also said he wonders if the Cruz policy was "Go out and do anything you want and if you get caught we'll just apologize, but we'll keep doing it."
Georgia governor says changes in works on religious exemptions bill
ATLANTA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Georgia's governor says changes are coming to a bill allowing faith-based organizations to refuse service to gay couples without repercussion. Supporters say it's intended to prevent religious adoption agencies, schools and other organizations from losing licenses, state grants, or other government benefits for their religious beliefs about same-sex marriage. The state's business community continued to marshal opposition to the proposal, wary of the type of economic backlash Indiana experienced following 2015 passage of a broader "religious freedom" law. At an event touting the state's booming film and television industry, Gov. Nathan Deal said his office is working with legislative leaders and declined to say whether he supports the

Child sex abuse victims to hear cardinal's testimony in Rome
BALLARAT, Australia (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Victims of clergy abuse have won permission to be present next week when Pope Francis's finance minister testifies from Rome to an Australian inquiry into child sex offenses within the Roman Catholic Church. C h i l d a b u s e v i c t i m s a n g r y t h a t C a rd i n a l G e o rg e Pell will not return to Australia to testify at the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse had requested that they be allowed to hear in person Pell's testimony by video conference. The head of the inquiry says the request was reasonable. A crowd funding website set up last week to raise $39,000 to send 15 abuse victims and their supporters to Rome had raised more than $144,000 so far. The excess money will be spent on mental health services at Pell's hometown of Ballarat. Pell, whom the pope placed in charge of the Vatican's finances in 2014, was to testify next Monday for a third time at the royal commission. He is accused of creating a victims' compensation program mainly to protect the church's assets and of using aggressive tactics to discourage victims' lawsuits, all while he was a bishop in Australia. He has denied any wrongdoing.

QuickGlance Movie Reviews
"Deadpool"
"Deadpool" hates its audience, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Nothing is sacred to either this film or this character (played with "I'm so naughty" abandon by Ryan Reynolds), which pokes fun at superhero movie culture, Hollywood itself, Reynolds, director Tim Miller, love and human decency — and that's just in the opening credits. On the page, it sounds like a lot of fun, and it starts out strong with a cheeky, self-awareness. But that wears thin very quickly for the raunchy, irreverent, and very R-rated bad boy property of the Marvel comic book world, which also seems to have matured to only a fifth grade level in its humor, wit, and ideas about subversion. The pervasive, toxic juvenileness suffocates even the more clever aspects of the film. It makes the entire experience a trying one, especially for the uninitiated who might be blindly expecting another "Avengers" or "X-Men." If superhero movies are going to continue to dominate the pop-cultural landscape for the foreseeable future (and they are), "Deadpool" is at least refreshing in its willingness to try something new. It is neither "Avengers" nor "X-Men" nor anything we've really seen before. No heroes are born. No worlds are ending. No cities are destroyed. The body count is still preposterously high, but it's not because some big baddy is blowing up a skyscraper. It's just because wise guy mercenary Wade Wilson (Reynolds) agreed to lend his body to some off-the-books scientific experiments in the hopes that it might cure his cancer. It does, and it gives him super healing powers, too, but his good looks are the casualty. RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "strong violence and language throughout, sexual content and graphic nudity." RUNNING TIME: 108 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: One and a half stars out of four.
"Zoolander 2"
In case you don't follow the global fashion calendar, Fashion Week has just begun in New York, bringing with it a few nice clothes plus the usual over-the-top weirdness — bizarrely themed runway shows and front-row fashionistas teetering on stilt-like heels, swathed in feathers and smoothed out with dangerous doses of Botox. Not coincidentally, Ben Stiller's "Zoolander 2" also opens this week, sporting everything we just mentioned — except maybe the few nice clothes. Of course, unlike Fashion Week, every element of "Zoolander 2," both directed and co-written by Stiller, is aimed at being silly and ridiculous — like the original 15 years ago, yet more so. And "yet more so" ends up being the problem. This sequel ups the ante so aggressively and relentlessly that you may find yourself pining for a relaxing night in front of a 2001-era TV, watching the original on a VHS tape. That's not to say that there aren't moments when you'll laugh out loud, especially when your favorite celebrity or designer appears for a cameo (is there anyone Stiller COULDN'T get to appear in his film?) But eventually you'll start to feel like your smile is sort of freezing on your face (Botox or no Botox); in your heart, you've just stopped laughing. But boy, those cameos. We begin with none other than Justin Bieber, chased through the streets of Rome for unknown reasons and gunned down, bullets riddling his body like in a "Godfather" film. Before succumbing, though, he manages to send a duck-faced selfie to his fans. RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America "for crude and sexual content, a scene of exaggerated violence, and brief strong language." RUNNING TIME: 102 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.

On the Edge of the Weekend
"The Witch"
Set under gray Puritan skies in a deathly autumn, "The Witch" is a slow-burning 1600s horror thriller so bone-dry it would only take a match for the whole movie to go up in flames. "A New England folktale" is how the opening titles describe writer-director Robert Eggers' impressively rigorous feature debut. The film doesn't just take place in early 17th century America, but it has effectively summoned the nightmares and superstitions of the era, much of which Eggers faithfully reproduced from various historical sources. The subject here is less witches as some supernatural fright than the Puritan psychology that dreamed them. Do not expect broomsticks. But what makes "The Witch" more than a mere museum reclamation project is Anya Taylor-Joy. The movie is in many ways seen through Thomasin, who stands apart from her devote family. Wide-eyed and rebellious, she more resembles a girl of today. Whether she is, in fact, a witch remains in suspense. But we witness how Puritan paranoia and misogyny turns a pretty young woman like Thomasin into a fearsome seductress in the eyes of her family. When the combustible "The Witch" finally lets itself ablaze, the brutal and surprisingly sober finale is also — and more thrillingly — Thomasin's awakening. Drawn by the lure to break free of her upbringing, to "live deliciously," she turns out to be something scarier than the Puritans could fathom: a teenager. RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "disturbing violent content and graphic nudity." RUNNING TIME: 92 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.
"How to Be Single"
Momentarily untied from "50 Shades of Grey" and its planned sequels, Dakota Johnson is again looking for love in "How to Be Single," a mild and fittingly discombobulated ode to singlehood that plays like a "Sex and the City" spinoff. We're back in that rom-com bastion — New York: the fairy tale, cobblestoned version — with a quartet of female archetypes who live in questionably affordable Manhattan apartments, and in a story that revolves around one character (Johnson) prone to occasional inner-monologue narration. The connection isn't kismet; "How to Be Single" is based on the 2008 novel by Liz Tuccillo, a former "Sex and the City" writer. But if the set-up is overly conventional, "How to Be Single" inverts some of the standard beats of the romantic comedy enough to give it a not-as-bad-as-you-expected charm derived considerably from its appealing cast. "Why do we always tell our stories through relationships?" asks Alice (Johnson), at the film's start. She's a young paralegal who, fearful that she has missed out on "real life in the in-between moments" by always jumping from one relationship to another, tells her longtime boyfriend (Nicholas Braun) that they must split. Hers is one of four approaches to single life. Providing raunchy humor and an over-the-top embrace of promiscuity is Alice's co-worker Robin (Rebel Wilson, spirited if overdoing it). Alice's older sister, an obstetrician named Meg (Leslie Mann), plays the part of the careerist woman pining for a baby. And then there's Lucy (Alison Brie), a picky, computer-dating, marriage-crazed woman who remains curiously unconnected to the others, an awkwardly added-on character in the script by Abby Kohn, Marc Silverstein and Dana Fox. RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "sexual content and strong language throughout." RUNNING TIME: 110 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.

"Risen"
Modern faith-based films don't have a stellar track record when it comes to quality. But they seem to both serve their intended audience and make money along the way, and, because of that, are given an implicit pass to exist somewhere outside of the expectations placed on traditional films. That's why "Risen" is such an interesting and even promising departure. It looks and feels like a film that just happens to fit into the faith-based genre instead of a faithbased infomercial that sort of resembles a film — at least at first. That's all credit to writer/director Kevin Reynolds, whose past films include "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves," ''Waterworld" and "The Count of Monte Cristo." With "Risen," Reynolds has endeavored to make a more classical biblical epic told in an original way — as a bureaucratic investigation into the resurrection. Joseph Fiennes' Clavius anchors the story — an ambitious, unsentimental Roman soldier who is helping Pontius Pilate (a funny, exasperated Peter Firth) deal with his Nazarene problem. Clavius is just an agent of his bosses, carrying out tasks with the hopes of eventually making it to Rome, where he hopes to find wealth, power and a good family. We see him go straight from battle to the crucifixion of the man who has caused such a stir in Judea as though he's just checking tasks off a list. RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "biblical violence including some disturbing images." RUNNING TIME: 108 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.
"Triple 9"
"Triple 9" has everything going for it, and that's it biggest handicap. This tale of gangsters and crooked cops in Atlanta has got a murderer's row of acting talent — Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kate Winslet, and Woody Harrelson among them — an alluringly dark premise, and bombastic bursts of greatness. But ultimately, director John Hillcoat ("The Proposition," ''The Road") fails to meld the storytelling with the film's ambitious scope, the way Michael Mann so proficiently did 21 years ago with his modern classic "Heat." "Triple 9" starts out auspiciously enough, with a pulsating and vividly executed bank robbery that crackles with tension and immediacy as the criminals execute the heist and begin their escape through the busy streets of the gritty city. It's the kind of drawn out sequence that can be enough to propel an entire film as you wait for another set piece to top it. There is one other masterfully choreographed raid about midway through, but by then you're almost too caught up in the confusing who, what, where and why to indulge in the excitement. Hillcoat, working from screenwriter Matt Cook's Black List script, trusts the audience to weave together the narratives of its eight main characters by themselves without the help of exposition — a welcome challenge, but a frustrating one as well. There are just so many characters, subplots and motivations to keep track of that it feels more like an extended pilot in the vein of "The Wire" or even "True Detective" than a contained movie. Essentially, there's a cabal of mercenary cops (Anthony Mackie, Clifton Collins Jr.) and tattooed, ex-military baddies (Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, playing grease ball brothers) who do dirty jobs for Russian-Israeli gangsters (led by Kate Winslet, packing a thick accent, blonde bouffant and vampy press-on nails). RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "strong violence and language throughout, drug use and some nudity." RUNNING TIME: 115 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.

"Triple 9" fails despite strong cast By LINDSEY BAHR Associated Press "Triple 9" has everything going for it, and that's it biggest handicap. This tale of gangsters and crooked cops in Atlanta has got a murderer's row of acting talent — Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kate Winslet, and Woody Harrelson among them — an alluringly dark premise, and bombastic bursts of greatness.

It's the kind of drawn out sequence that can be enough to propel an entire film as you wait for another set piece to top it.

Essentially, there's a cabal of mercenary cops (Anthony Mackie, Clifton Collins Jr.) and tattooed, ex-military baddies (Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, playing grease ball brothers) who do dirty jobs for Russian-Israeli gangsters (led by Kate Winslet, packing a thick accent, blonde bouffant and vampy press-on nails). After the opening heist doesn't go exactly as planned, Winslet's mob-boss demands one last job of her motivated ringleader (Ejiofor), who is forever tied to Winslet's whims because of the son he shares with her sister (Gal Gadot, who amounts to no more than scantily clad set dressing). Winslet is trying to get her husband out of a foreign prison and the answer
apparently lies in Atlanta security facilities. Have you already lost track? It's not hard to, and we're only part of the way there. The crooked cops decide that the only way to carry out the new heist (breaking into a Homeland Security facility) is to stage a compelling distraction in another part of town — a "999," code for officer down. The unlucky sap they settle on to be the sacrificial lamb is the chief's (Harrelson) nephew (Casey Affleck), who just moved to town and started work at the station. The problem is that Affleck's newbie cop turns out to be more than a charity case and the once generally straightforward "999" gets even murkier and more complicated. An unsatisfying third act turn also destroys the promise of the setup.
"Gods of Egypt" squanders solid cast By ROBERT GRUBAUGH For The Edge With first things always being first, I'd like to congratulate "Spotlight" on its Academy Award win for Best Picture in what was surely an upset that busted a lot of office ballots. It put me over the top to win my own workplace pool. For the young Open Road Pictures studio that produced it, this is a big deal early in their history. Way to go! The telecast itself was quite a lot of fun and hoopla, so much so that I choose to mention it even as I compose this column via iPad from a hotel room in Dallas where I screened the prestigious event with five hundred of my closest friends. Anything would be better than sitting through another screening of the weekend's abysmal "Gods
of Egypt", an also-ran that finished a distant second to "Deadpool's" third week at #1. Also new to the market were inspiring Olympic story "Eddie the Eagle" and the criminal cop drama "Triple 9". "Gods of Egypt" solidly squanders its credible cast of talented and recognizable stars to be predictably terrible from the onset. The colorful, special effectsladen project was never going to be received well and I had to look no further than the history of its failed genre or the tough page of the calendar to know this. Past performance will always be a generally acceptable indicator of future success and "Egypt" had a chip on its shoulder all along. In it, Gerard Butler (star of next week's "London Has Fallen"), plays a vengeful deity named Set who
usurps the throne from his nephew, Horus ("Game of Thrones"' Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), and runs afoul of his nation in the process. Aiding in the mission to reinstate Horus is a common thief, Bek (Brenton Thwaites), who appeals both the comic relief and love story with his beautiful (and little else) Zaya (Courtney Eaton). Creator God Ra (Geoffrey Rush) has some to say, as does Thoth (Chadwick Boseman, the new Black Panther in Disney Marvel's upcoming " Civil War"), an even more minor character in a somewhat pointless role. "Egypt" is a second-tier action film in the vein of "Wrath of the Titans". One colleague even remarked that you can see a clear demarcation in the third act as to when the budget runs out; so do the good 3D effects
shots. Director Alex Proyas (an established filmmaker who has worked on pictures like "Knowing" and "I, Robot") took the wrong tactic and lashed out at film critics this week when his movie, a project for thousands of collaborators that cost millions of dollars, became the sure fire bomb for the year. Criticism is not science. He would be well advised that if he can't take heat from others over the quality of his art, maybe he should find a less subjective line of work. Since I like showmanship in my movie exhibition, I will award some credit to the fine people at Alamo Drafthouse, a Bucket List destination, where I got to see this picture on Friday. Their entree and cocktail menu game is strong, their service is passionately unique, and I can't say
March 10, 2016
enough about their clever pre show programming that was hilariously customized for my show. Well done! Check out their offerings if you ever get the chance. Other great choices I made this week were to venture out whilst on vacation and take in a handful of movies all over the West End neighborhood of the city. I even splurged for the $18.99 On Demand in-room availability of Best Picture Oscar nominee "Room". The convenience was nice, but the small screen did it no favors. I need my entertainment to be forty feet tall. "Gods of Egypt" runs 127 minutes and i s rat ed PG- 13 f or f ant asy violence and action, and some sexuality. I give this film one star out of four.

The Arts Annual Art Auction planned at SIUE By JULIA BIGGS Of The Edge The Friends of Art along with the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Department of Art & Design are gearing up for their 39th Annual Art Auction. Original artworks, donated by SIUE faculty, visiting artists , SIUE alumni, friends and advanced students, will be auctioned off to the highest bidder during the event that will take place on March 16 at the Art West Gallery located in the Arts and Design West building on the SIUE campus. Additional work will also be available to the highest bidder in a silent auction. Th i s i m p o r t a n t f u n d r a i s e r, that has taken place since 1977, generates funds that are used by the SIUE Art Department to invite local, national and international artists and lecturers to the SIUE campus as well as provide funds for art students to attend national conferences and awards for student exhibits. SIUE Friends of Art President Andi Smith explained that there had been two changes to this year's Art Auction. “For many, many years, we have done this on a Thursday. We have moved it to a Wednesday this year,” she said explaining that they made the move to avoid St. Patrick's Day. The other change is the addition of a preview day of the artwork which will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on March 15 and in the afternoon of March 16. “This was a request from last year,” Smith noted. “People asked if they could come see everything early. So, anybody who is on campus or wants to come to campus can come through and preview everything. That lets people spend a little more time looking at things maybe without a crowd.”
“Also, if anyone coming to preview the silent auction items wants to start bidding at that point, we will let them,” Smith added. “Because we have, I believe, 89 pieces in silent auction this year.
We have a lot of pieces this year.” Smith pointed out that the majority of the two dimensional artwork that had been donated this year, had already been framed. “Which is really nice for buyers
because you won't have to think about that expense,” Smith noted. But the bottom line is raising money to support the art students' education. “This is the part that is amazing to me. It's our 39th year,” Smith said. “All of the money that we bring in, with the exception of the costs of the auction, goes back into the program.” She elaborated saying that the art department faculty makes requests for funding which may be a visiting artist for a day or two or a student request for funds to attend the national art educator conference. “This past year, every single request we got from the faculty we were able to fund which is pretty amazing,” Smith stressed. “Because in past years sometimes we would have to partially fund or we would just have to say we don't have enough for everybody. So sometimes we had to look at things and say no, but this year we funded every single thing fully. And that is all due to the generosity of the people who donate the artwork and our bidders of course.” In addition to the guest artists or students' education, the funds raised have also gone toward library funds to purchase art books or student scholarships. Smith, currently in her third year as Friends of Art President, said that the art auction is a big project but when it's over, she's proud to have been apart of making it happen. “It's always kind of a crunch between we get things and we have about a month before we have to have it ready. And Pam Decoteau, my cohort, is amazing. We have to put together a catalog, and we send out letters to solicit donations and everything else. And Pam keeps us all focused and running,” Smith added. Smith stressed that the auction
March 10, 2016
is a lively event, a lot of fun and features friendly competition that provides participants as much excitement in bidding as winning the item. She invited and encouraged the public to attend. Tickets are $7 for the general public and can be purchased at the door. Admission is free to all students and those who have donated works for the auction, as well as members of the Friends of Art. Free food will be provided and as long as the food lasts, there will be a cash bar. Doors open at 6 p.m. and Ahrens & Niemeier auctioneers will start the bidding at 7 p.m. Free parking will be provided in Pay Lot B (SIUE’s Visitor’s Lot). Although parking will not be available adjacent to the building, attendees may be dropped off at the doors behind the Art and Design West building. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend.

The Arts Artistic adventures Museum to exhibit Chinese art
An exhibit titled Real and Imagined Landscapes in Chinese Art will be on display March 11â&#x20AC;&#x201C;August 14 in Gallery 225 at the Saint Louis Art Museum in Forest Park. Chinese art is filled with images of landscapes and landscape settings. Some are depictions of imaginary locations and others may represent actual sites at certain points in time, while still others combine real and imagined landscape elements within the same pictorial space or object surface. This exhibition of selected works from the Museum's collection explores how real and imagined landscapes in Chinese art are seen within paintings as well as threedimensional objects. Works in the exhibition include two hanging scrolls bearing titles that refer to actual named places: The Taibo Wine Pavilion at Caishi Rock by Miao Song and Elegant Gathering at the Poetry Niche, a collaborative work by Fa Shishan and his friends. Gathering of the Immortals by Wang Wending depicts the birthday celebration of the Daoist deity Queen Mother of the West in a garden of lotus, plantain, and exotic flowering plants. These screens present symbols of longevity, and were painted in honor of the 60th birthday of the Li family matriarch Madame Chen. Other works in the exhibition that interpret landscapes through visual imagination include the hanging scroll by Wan Shanglin with scenery that arouses a sense of tranquility, and two porcelain barrelform garden seats decorated with peacocks in landscape settings. Real and Imagined Landscapes in Chinese Art is curated by Philip Hu, associate curator-in-charge of Asian art. The exhibit is free. For more information, visit www. slam.org.
Oriental carpet display planned
The Saint Louis Art Museum is hosting a new exhibit, The Carpet and the Connoisseur. During the early 20th century, St. Louis businessman James F. Ballard became one of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top collectors of Oriental carpets. An unlikely collector, he was celebrated for his approach to collecting Anatolian carpets from provincial centers in Turkey at a time when most other rug connoisseurs were acquiring the classical Persian and Indian carpets. In addition to his passion for collecting, Ballard was also a patient teacher, inveterate traveler, and, above all, the first Oriental carpet enthusiast to acknowledge the importance of Turkish influence on the history of the pile carpet. Ballard ultimately divided his collection of carpets between The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1922 and the Saint Louis Art Museum in 1929. Another group of carpets were added to the St. Louis collection through a later donation by his daughter, Nellie Ballard White, in 1972. As a result of these two gifts, the Museum has amassed a collection of Oriental rugs recognized as one of the most significant collections in the world. The Carpet and the Connoisseur will highlight 51 carpets from the Ballard collection, including three Cairene rugs, a Spanish rug, and examples of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lottoâ&#x20AC;? and small-pattern â&#x20AC;&#x153;Holbeinâ&#x20AC;? carpets, all important examples of works from the late15th and 16th centuries. Ballard also
acquired two 19th-century Persian pleasure tents that were used for outdoor gatherings. These are also featured in the exhibition. The Carpet and the Connoisseur is guest-curated by Walter B. Denny, University of Massachusetts distinguished professor in Islamic Arts in collaboration with Philip Hu, associate curator of Asian art, and textile conservator Zoe Perkins. The Carpet and the Connoisseur will be on view in the Main Exhibition Galleries from March 6 through May 8, 2016. For more information, visit www.slam.org.

A selection of gouache drawings also explore the process and materials of artmaking and the spaces in between. Though Trankinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s works allude to Old Master still life paintings, they stand firmly within our contemporary world â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and often refer to human relationships and all of their idiosyncrasies.

Music Tuning in Sheldon to welcome Joe Pug
Austin, TX singer songwriter Joe Pug’s rise has been as improbable as it has been impressive. After dropping out of college and taking on work as a carpenter in Chicago, he got his musical start by providing CDs for his fans to pass along to their friends. This led to a string of sold out shows and a record deal with Nashville indie Lightning Rod Records (Jason Isbell, Billy Joe Shaver). As he toured behind Messenger (2010) and The Great Despiser (2012) it was with a band that looked as much like a jazz trio as an Americana band. The following years would have them on the road for over four hundred shows, including stops at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo and The Newport Folk Festival. His latest, critically acclaimed album, Windfall, released in 2015, was praised by Rolling Stone with,"...it showcases the singer's unique and achingly honest point of view that spins lyrics into folk poetry." Joe Pug with special guest is scheduled April 27, 2016 at 8 p.m. at the Sheldon Concert Hall. Tickets are $22 reserved seating. Call MetroTix at 314-534-1111 or visit TheSheldon.org.

Scorpions to perform at The Fox
Hot off the heels of their latest studio album, “Return To Forever,” the Scorpions celebrate their 50th Anniversary and make a stop at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in St. Louis, MO on May 10, 2016 with Queensrÿche. Tickets are available online at metrotix.com, by calling 314-5341111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office. 50 years after a very young Rudolf Schenker founded the band in the profoundly provincial, postwar Hannover, the Scorpions remain a band that is able to attract masses of new fans at any given time. The Scorpions are once again at the peak of their creativity with their latest album. Tracks like the first single “We Built This House” are as contemporary as the sweeping
20
“House Of Cards” (a guaranteed live hit). Also belonging in the category live hit is “Eye Of The Storm”, a track, that transports a notion of the unbelievable dynamic and joy of playing, characterizing the Scorpions’ stage performances. The Scorpions are currently on their 50th Anniversary World Tour, which the band is loving. Not least, “because it’s simply unbelievable and inspiring to look into the faces of very young fans, who discover us and our music in a whole new way.” And who, this might be added, experience the magic that characterizes Scorpions concerts since their early days, for the first time. Queensrÿche first burst onto the music scene in 1982 with the release of their self-titled 4 song EP "Queensrÿche". They very quickly gained international recognition and performed to sold out audiences around the world. With the follow up first full length album "The Warning" in 1984, and the ground breaking 1986 release of "Rage For Order", Queensrÿche continued to prove their worldwide dominance as one of the most respected and creative bands of the 80's. In 1988 the band turned out yet another monumental album "Operation:Mindcrime", which would go on to become one of the TOP 10 best-selling concepts records of all time, and set the stage for continued sold out performances around the world. With the release
of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful "Empire" in 1991, the band earned multiple Grammy Award nominations and won the MTV "viewer ’s choice" award for the #1 chart topping hit "Silent Lucidity". During the next ten years, the band continued to release albums and tour the world to sold out audiences. Queensrÿche has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and have continued to break new ground and push their creative process.
Mendes to perform at The Fox
With his #1 debut album, #1 single “Stitches”, & now second Pop Radio hit “I Know What You Did Last Summer” extending his momentum into the new year, Island Records recording artist Shawn Mendes has announced his Shawn Mendes World Tour, opening across Europe with 11 dates in April-May, and then arriving in North America with 26 dates starting on July 15th at Mizner Amphitheater in Boca Raton FL, through the August 21st homecoming date at Air Canada Center in Toronto (Please see full list of dates below). Preceding these shows, Shawn will play his biggest New York City concert to date, headlining Radio City Music Hall on Saturday, March 5th, which

sold-out in under 5 minutes when tickets went on-sale this past fall. Mendes will appear at The Fox Theatre in St. Louis Saturday, August 6th, Tickets are $40 and are on sale online at metrotix.com, by calling 314-534-1111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office. “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” the RIAA gold single duet by Shawn and Camila Cabello of Fifth Harmony, has gone Top 15 at Pop Radio, Top 10 on iTunes, Top 20 on the U.S. Spotify chart, and Top 30 on Spotify’s Global Top 50. The video for “IKWYDLS” is currently past 35 million YouTube views. Shawn and Camila wrote the song together backstage in his green room at a Taylor Swift 1989 Tour show last summer, and recorded it secretly in New York and Los Angeles. When Handwritten, now double platinum with a total of 2 million
adjusted sales, entered Soundscan at #1 last year, it made Shawn the youngest artist in nearly five years to chart a #1 album on the Billboard 200. “IKWYDLS” follows up Shawn’s run of consecutive hit singles “Life of The Party” (RIAA platinum), “Something Big” (RIAA platinum), and “Stitches” (RIAA 4x-platinum). “Stitches” went to #1 on US Pop radio, nearing pole position at the Hot AC formats and has become a certifiable airplay and sales smash around the world. In addition to topping the official singles chart in the UK this week, the single has hit #1 on iTunes in over 20 markets, and reached Top 5 on the Global Spotify chart. Shawn also took home the MTV EMA for Best New Artist and the People’s Choice Award for Favorite Breakout Artist.

From unique collectibles and gifts, Elkhart Lake shops and galleries offer an

Mary Told Lincoln: â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Second Lookâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I seem to be the scapegoat for both North and South.â&#x20AC;? The interpretation of Mary Tood Lincolnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life after the assassination of her beloved husband, President Abraham Lincoln, has been inconsistent at best and pernicious at worst. The deep scrutiny of Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life in the White House by the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Upper societyâ&#x20AC;? of Washington DC and the character assassination by certain scholars have led many of us to have a clouded opinion of her. Both the wrenching judgement of her by the country she so loved and the horrific experience of seeing her husband murdered white sitting next to her had lasting effects on her life. The steady decline of her reactions to events that impacted her led to her insanity trial and commitment to an institution in Batavia, Illinois. But now, a century and half later, perhaps we can have a more objective view of Mary Todd Lincoln and the times she lived in.
Come join us for â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Second Lookâ&#x20AC;? at Mary Todd Lincoln presented by: Nancy Alexander from the Alton Museum of HIstory
