p0153-p0158.pdf (application/pdf Object) The Searchable Ornithological Research Archive has a new look, new content and new features for 2013! SORA has been moved to a new platform that will allow the resource to grow and expand over time. Many of the SORA journal titles have been updated with additional articles, and several new ornithological titles have been added to the site. SORA now offers new features for users and will enable journal publishers to update the SORA repository directly, with little or no technical support. Special Note: We have received a number of inquiries about the new user account feature in SORA.
Please note that you do not need a user account to search, browse or download SORA articles. All of these improvements have been needed for some time, and the UNM Libraries SORA team appreciates your collective patience; it has taken a little over a year to convert the entire SORA article holdings and prepare the new site for production.

News > North County -- The amazing Dr. Dante has seen it all. “There's three sides to every story. My version, their version, and the truth.” – Dr. Ronald Dante, quoting an old adage. PAUMA VALLEY – Ronald Dante, or Ronald Pellar, or whatever his name really is, lives these days in a small mobile home off state Route 76.
“I'm just an old guy with cancer now and I'm just trying to sell my flowers,” he told a reporter. But Dante is not just any old guy, but a prolific con man with a history that is almost impossible to believe. In the 1970s, he was convicted of trying to murder a rival hypnotist. A decade earlier he was actress Lana Turner's eighth husband. In the 1990s, he operated one of the greatest diploma-mill scams in U.S. history, although in his opinion it wasn't a scam at all. In the late 1990s, he was kidnapped off his million-dollar yacht anchored near Ensenada, taken to the United States, and sentenced to more than five years in federal prison on charges related to his permanent-makeup business.
Dr. Turner remembered it differently.
