Lolita Lebrón, a Puerto Rican independence activist who spent 25 years in prison for participating in a gun attack on the U.S. House of Representatives in 1954, died Sunday. She was 90.

Lebrón died at a hospital in San Juan of complications from respiratory disease, said Francisco Torres, president of the Nationalist Party of Puerto Rico.

“Lolita was the mother of the independence movement. This is an insurmountable loss,” said Maria de Lourdes Santiago, a member of the U.S. commonwealth’s Senate from the Puerto Rican Independence Party.

Lolita is an example of the courage, beauty, strength and love of the Puerto Rican woman. May she rest in peace.

A South Bronx Memorial service will be held for Lolita on Sunday August 8th, 2010 at 10:30 AM at La Resurrección United Methodist Church 790 Elton Avenue (corner of 158th St.). The service is open to all who want to attend.

    There is an ending. Just remember that I meant for this to be an art game. I do feel like I spent an inordinate amount of time on the more traditional gameplay elements, which may make the meaning of the game a bit unclear. If you mess around with it though, you’ll find it.

    This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
