Religion, state of the church among topics at annual Napa conference
By Elizabeth Bachmann
Originally posted in Catholic News Service
WASHINGTON (CNS) — Under the clear, California-blue skies of Napa Valley, 15 bishops and 100 priests gathered with over 500 lay Catholics and women religious to discuss religion and drink wine, brainstorm solutions and smoke cigars, not to mention celebrate Mass over 100 times in the span of just a few days.
The Napa Institute, founded in 2010, hosted its ninth annual Summer Conference in late July, focusing on the theme of authentic reform and the current state of the church.
John Meyer, executive director of the Napa Institute, explained the goal of the conference.
"Faith and culture. We try to look at issues that Catholic leaders face in culture and respond to those issues in a meaningful way," Meyer told Catholic News Service. "We want people to really be able to articulate why we believe what we believe, and not just what we believe. … We want them to be equipped to win the debate in the culture."
During the conference, Philadelphia Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, Bishop Thomas J. Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, Bishop Joseph E. Strickland of Tyler, Texas, and Bishop Thomas A. Daly of Spokane, Washington, spoke on a panel synthesizing discussions at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' annual spring assembly in June.
Meyer described the panel as a sort of "State of the Union for the Church."
Other prominent speakers included Cardinal Raymond L. Burke; George Weigel, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington; Jim Daly, president and CEO of Focus on the Family in Colorado Springs, Colorado; Alan Sears, founder of Alliance Defending Freedom in Scottsdale, Arizona; former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker; and Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, based in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
They spoke about the pursuit of personal sainthood, parish reform, transforming culture, engaging young people and responding to church problems at an individual level.
Fran Maier, Napa Institute board member and assistant to Archbishop Chaput, attended the conference this year, and found one topic keenly important.
"I thought the day that was devoted to parish life and revivifying parish life was really wonderful," Maier told CNS. "The parish is where most people encounter the church and enrich their faith, so renewing the church begins with one person at a familial and parish level. … If you want to renew church must begin at parish."
For Meyer, one of the best moments of the conference was Wiegel's speech titled "This Catholic Moment: Where Are We and What Is the Path Forward?"
"He had a good talk about this moment being unique, but also not unique. The church has always been through these ups and downs and it's not a time to panic, but a time to be the saint that you need to be," Meyer said. "Calling people to action was very important this year. Everyone is upset about things going on but looking elsewhere for solutions. But we need to show them that they can be the solution. In the very time and place that they are, they can be the solution."
Though the Napa Institute is most known for its faith formation, the conference dedicated equal focus to liturgy and prayer, and community building.
Priests celebrated 105 Masses on the institute grounds and in various chapels, including Our Lady of Grapes Chapel and Estate Cave. With 100 priests at the conference, most of whom wanted to say Mass, the desire to celebrate the Eucharist seemed to be contagious. Some services were public, but others served only four or five people in intimate chapels on the grounds of the institute.
The conference also offered a rich opportunity for networking, communicating and making friends. Attendees enjoyed films, theater, food, wine and each other's company. But the friendships don't dissolve at the end of the conference.
"We have this infamous cigar night — it's really just cocktail reception after dinner — where you see all these different apostolates coming together," Meyer said. "They have a few hours in a very casual atmosphere to discuss things. I don't want to take credit for things, but we have seen where those things have led to mergers and new promoters to apostolates."
Maier said that one of the critical elements of the institute's Summer Conference is that it attracts young and old alike.
"The problem is when you get to my age, you get battle fatigue. You think, 'Oh brother, everything is a problem or about to become one,'" Maier said. "At Napa you run into a whole lot of young people who are very motivated. There are a lot of young people just getting turned onto issues and bring an entirely new level of energy and enthusiasm.
"For me that like someone has turned on the lights," he continued. "That's revivifying. Napa is a transfer point for people who are knowledgeable and have been doing this for a long time, but who are tired and pessimistic and young people who have lots of energy and new ideas for doing things."
Editor's Note: Registration to participate in the Napa Institute Summer Conference is open to the public, and the institute often awards participants scholarships to help cover costs.

BTW, on high, how does this compare to the MR-X for total output?
The MR-X is in a class of its own. Take a look at the lumens table below. Those figures are LuxV's driven at spec, ie 700mA. The MR-X has the poor Luxeons running at 1500mA!!!
Let's pray for some more X'es.
Unfortunately, I will need to remove myself from this purchase. I have to comit these funds elsewhere at this time.
I think the Fatman board does get (too?) hot when running at 1.3A continuously without potting.
Output current is not enough to figure out how 'hot' it will run. It's the input voltage vs output voltage AND output current that needs to be known.
At 1.3A into a LuxV (say 7V) with a li-ion at 3.7V Fatman will be around 85% efficient. This means 1.3 x 7 = 9.1W output. At 85% we have 9.1/0.85 = 10.7 input. Losses = Heat = 10.7 - 9.1= 1.6Watts. That will be spread over the inductor, the schottky and the switcher.
For a boost switcher, the efficiency drops, hence the power 'wasted' will go up as the input/output voltage differential increases.
For 1.3A output Howard has already asked me about Fatman issues and I would provide a 'beefed' up version if he decides to go with >1A for this project.
The switcher chip on Fatman has built in thermal protection and the switcher will turn off if the temperature rises too far.
And finally, this light will have a dimmer pot - most of the time it would be running at lower output to conserve battery life - the 1.3A would be for short bursts (a few minutes)... I would not recommend potting.
Thanks for chiming in George. EM inbound shortly.
OK guys, the hosts are due to arrive in AU late next week, ~13th Aug. I will be dropping them off to the machinist that weekend. If you are sending me hosts, please send them now. The machinist will only run the conversion in one batch. He tells me to give him one week to get it done.
Please send PP payment to the address in my profile before the end of next week 13th Aug, that will secure your Pocketmate. I envisage a couple of weeks to get the PocketMate done and tested and should be able to ship it late August, early Sept.
hi hotbeam, have to opt out too this time due to lack of $$$. thanks once again for doing this.
How much are supposed to send?
Did you get my paypal payment???
Am sorry but have to drop off the list.
Hope doesn't cause any problems.
Xflash... Nitefish is getting yours [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Pila 168S/CR123 sleeve I presume?
I like the idea of using the Pila 168s.
And the size looks just right.
Beefed up drivers are also due to me ~16/17 August.
Likebright... EM receied and replied.
G Pilot, Bajaiman... are you still sending me your hosts?
A max output of 1300 mA sounds good specially in a variable light.
Nice to know you have it when you need it.
Nitefish... PP received. Many tanks.


May God teach every one of us to strive for His truth, and for the good of the Holy Church, rather than something for our own sake. Amen.
And as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the Israelites, they looked toward the wilderness, and the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud. The LORD spoke to Moses and said, "I have heard the complaining of the Israelites; say to them, 'At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread; then you shall know that I am the LORD your God.'" In the evening quails came up and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. When the layer of dew lifted, there on the surface of the wilderness was a fine flaky substance, as fine as frost on the ground. When the Israelites saw it, they said to one another, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, "It is the bread that the LORD has given you to eat. This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Gather as much of it as each of you needs, an omer to a person according to the number of persons, all providing for those in their own tents.'" The Israelites did so, some gathering more, some less. But when they measured it with an omer, those who gathered much had nothing over, and those who gathered little had no shortage; they gathered as much as each of them needed. And Moses said to them, "Let no one leave any of it over until morning." But they did not listen to Moses; some left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and became foul. And Moses was angry with them. Morning by morning they gathered it, as much as each needed; but when the sun grew hot, it melted.
Beloved, I urge you as aliens and exiles to abstain from the desires of the flesh that wage war against the soul. Conduct yourselves honorably among the Gentiles, so that, though they malign you as evildoers, they may see your honorable deeds and glorify God when he comes to judge. For the Lord's sake accept the authority of every human institution, whether of the emperor as supreme, or of governors, as sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right. For it is God's will that by doing right you should silence the ignorance of the foolish. As servants of God, live as free people, yet do not use your freedom as a pretext for evil. Honor everyone. Love the family of believers. Fear God. Honor the emperor. Slaves, accept the authority of your masters with all deference, not only those who are kind and gentle but also those who are harsh. For it is a credit to you if, being aware of God, you endure pain while suffering unjustly. If you endure when you are beaten for doing wrong, what credit is that? But if you endure when you do right and suffer for it, you have God's approval. For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his steps. "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth." When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly. He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we might live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. For you were going astray like sheep, but now you have returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls.
"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. You did not choose me but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name. I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another. "If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world-- therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, 'Servants are not greater than their master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. Whoever hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. It was to fulfill the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.' "When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf. You also are to testify because you have been with me from the beginning.
Agape is the love that lets us be our truest, best selves. So I have learned from the writings, teaching, and friendship of Pittman McGehee, a priest, author, Jungian analyst, and my mentor. In the ten years I've known him, Pittman has modeled Jesus' commandment to love. He has empowered me to become the whole human being God created me to be. Pittman, of course, learned this agape love from Jesus who embodied that love for his disciples and whose followers have passed that love along through the generations.
My mentor is not the only one in my life to model Jesus' commandment to love as he loved, but Pittman has helped me understand and live that love in my own life. As I continue to receive agape love, each day I seek to let others be. I try to live agape love so that others may become the amazing children of God they have been designed to be. I am grateful for mentors, family, and friends who have embodied that love for me, so that I can know and follow Jesus' commandment to love as he has loved us.


Aurora Cannabis Inc. has nearly quadrupled its sales and achieved a strong market share in a profit report on Monday, describing the first quarter of sales of legal recovery pots in Canada, as well as large losses and a shrinking margin.
1.7 million a year ago. Large losses were expected as a result of a decline in marijuana shares in the final quarter as Aurora has invested heavily in other companies in the industry and needs to track their performance as part of the bottom line. Aurora said that these adjustments amounted to about 190 million CAD of its losses.
The results reflect the launch of legal marijuana sales in Canada, the first industrialized nation to offer recreational potential sales nationwide. Aurora claimed a large market share for Canada in the launch quarter, with sales of $ 21.6 million from its home country.
Marijuana IPOs in 2019: These companies could be the next hot pot holdings.
"Based on the available data that Health Canada released for the second quarter of 2019, Aurora accounted for approximately 20% of total consumer sales," Aurora said in its announcement.
Aurora announced in January sales of $ 50-55 million after deducting excise duties. Not enough analysts cover the company for a reasonable consensus estimate. The Aurora share recovered in late trading but posted a slight increase of less than 2% after publication.
The falling margin of Aurora may be more worrying than the quarterly loss impacted by the stock. Aurora said the gross margin on cannabis sales dropped from 70% in the previous quarter to 54% in the same quarter last year, to 63%. However, Aurora maintained its goal of showing adjusted earnings in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, saying the margin change should be temporary.
"The decrease [in gross margin] was mainly due to a lower average selling price per gram of dried cannabis, the impact of excise taxes on net sales of medicinal cannabis and a temporary lower share of cannabis oil sales in the company's sales mix. The gross margin also impacted the increased packaging requirements under the Cannabis Act, as well as one-off start-up and optimization costs, as our Sky facility was brought to full production, "said Aurora in her announcement, referring to a plant for marijuana cultivation. "The Company expects the launch of new derivative product lines, once approved under Health Canada guidelines, to help improve margins."
The company announced Monday morning that it had shipped its first cannabis oil to the United Kingdom. Aurora previously said that it sends marijuana to more than 20 countries.
The shares were significantly lower on Monday before the release of Aurora. Canopy Growth Corp.
share fell 5.6%, Cronos Group Inc.
shares fell 0.6% and Tilray Inc.

More Challenges Than Cheer for Apple Chief on Asia Tour Essay
With slowing iPhone sales in China, Apple Inc is having to take India more seriously, but investors hoping for a stock price fillip from CEO Tim Cook's week-long Asia trip instead were given a taste of the daunting challenges that lie ahead.
The second leg of Cook's trip, to India, the world's third-largest smartphone market, comes at a crucial time as Apple battles slowing growth in China, its second-biggest market. But the challenges suggest it will be years before India is anything close to a major earnings pillar for the U.S. tech giant.
"With China saturating, everybody has no choice but to look at India, and Apple's rivals have been strengthening there in the last two years. Apple is playing catch-up," said Ville-Petteri Ukonaho, a senior analyst at Strategy Analytics.
While the numbers in India suggest huge potential — fewer than two in every 10 of the country's 1.3 billion people have a smartphone — the world's fastest growing major market operates differently to other markets where Apple has enjoyed stellar growth and high margins.
Apple's traditional model is to sell its phones at full price to local telecoms carriers, which then discount them to users in exchange for charging them for data as part

of a multi-month contract. Not so in India.
"In India, carriers in general sell virtually no phones and it is out in retail — and retail is many, many different small shops," Cook told analysts recently. "Because smartphones there are low-end, primarily because of the network and the economics, the market potential has not been as great," added Cook, likening India to the Chinese market 7-10 years ago.
In meetings with India's two largest carriers, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone, Cook discussed ways to work more closely to sell iPhones, including whether a contract pricing model could work in India. He said Apple sees opportunities to expand in the market as operators roll out 4G services.
"The trip was more about understanding the Indian market, but was also about signaling to the world that Apple has arrived in India," said Vishal Tripathi, research director at Gartner.
Price sensitive
Another challenge for Apple is how to be a premium-end player in a low-income market.
"In India, incomes are so low that not many customers appreciate the full value of the Apple ecosystem, and it will take a lot more effort for Apple to sell the Macs and iPads in Indian stores compared to China," said Strategy Analytics' Ukonaho.
India is a more price sensitive market than China, and Apple's relatively expensive iPhones are out of reach to most Indians, who on average live on less than $3.10 a day according to World Bank data.
With per capita income of $1,570 as of 2014 and the average smartphone selling for less than $90, a third of the global average, India's market growth is predominantly led by cheaper phones. High-end smartphones — costing from $300 — make up only 6 percent of the market, or just 6 million units, according to Morgan Stanley.
Rebuffed by India's government in its plan to import and sell used, refurbished iPhones, Apple has seen only slow growth in a market dominated by Samsung Electronics and Chinese brands.
That issue was not resolved in talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi — which a Modi aide called "extremely successful" — and government officials have pressed Apple to set up manufacturing facilities in India, said officials involved in discussions, a move that would create jobs and boost Modi's "Make in India" initiative.
"Now it's for Apple to talk about their plans," the Modi aide said.
Apple declined to comment on what Cook achieved on his Asia trip.
More marketing
Apple's brand awareness ranks 10th in India, trailing Samsung, Sony, Blackberry and some local rivals. Almost half of respondents in a Morgan Stanley survey said they do not know Apple.
While Apple is likely to double its share in the $400-plus segment to 40 percent, it "has to significantly increase its store presence, ramp up marketing, and add local content," the brokerage said in a recent note.
A first Apple retail store in India is unlikely to open its doors until next year at the earliest.
In internal meetings, Cook stressed how Apple wants to increase its retail operations in India and work with re-sellers to make its products available more widely. "We've been hiring for India retail and distribution for the last few months, and Tim's message was that we need to double down on that," said an Apple official in India.
In China, where iPhone sales slumped in January-March and some online entertainment services were suspended, Cook also had little to cheer investors.
At meetings with Chinese officials, Cook emphasized Apple's contributions to China's economy — creating jobs, generating revenue and paying taxes — said people familiar with the matter. His visit came just days after Apple announced a $1 billion investment in a local ride-hailing app firm, a move Cook says will help Apple better understand China.
But when he asked about the shutdown of online services and emphasized that Apple had followed procedures in establishing those services, he was told only that China would look into it, the people said.

Our family excursion last weekend to East Tennessee was a blast! Fun was had by all. Our first stop was Chattanooga on Saturday where we went on a walking tour of the riverfront area. If you haven't been , you should consider a trip there. It is a beautiful area with plenty to do for all types of interests. My main interest, of course, was the arts district. We began our walk near the Hunter Museum of American Art. We didn't go in this time, I'll save that for the next visit. They have recently opened a walking bridge across the Tennessee River and that was our route to the arts district…amazing views all the way across.

The former Manchester United, Everton and England full-back has had talks with Martin Glenn, the Chief Executive and Baroness Sue Campbell, the head of women's football, this week - after the FA's Technical Director Dan Ashworth made contact in December.
Neville has no previous experience in the women's game and in spite of the fact that he has held an FA UEFA pro-licence qualification since 2013, it will be the 40-year-old's first spell in management.
Since retiring as a player, Neville took a full-time coaching role under David Moyes during the Scot's tenure at Manchester United in 2013 and also became a coach at Valencia in 2015.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, Chelsea defender Claire Rafferty was one of the first to suggest that Neville was in consideration for the role by saying: "Phil Neville's in the running for it.". However, the left-back later added she didn't know the scale of this interest.
Who else is in the running for the England job?
The FA have delayed the appointment of the new full-time England manager as they are committed to 'getting the right person' according to FA Chief Glenn.
With the original plan, which Baroness Campbell laid out in October of last year, was for the manager to be in place by the end of 2017 and in charge for the Lionesses trip to La Manga this month.
Many of the obvious candidates for the role, however, have been discounted by the FA or taken up various roles elsewhere in the footballing sphere.
Mo Marley has been the interim manager of the England team since the departure of Mark Sampson and it is understood that the England under-19 coach, who is popular amongst the players, fans and staff, put her name forward to take on the role on a more permanent basis.
Former England defender Marley has been in charge since September and has led the team to 4-0 and 5-0 World Cup Qualifying wins over Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kazakhstan respectively.
John Herdman
Herdman was heavily linked with the vacant England job following an assertion he made back in 2013 when the County Durham native said he would consider the role following Sampson's appointment.
The 42-year-old, who took charge of the Canadian women's team in 2011 and led them to a World Cup quarter-final and two Olympic bronze medals, ultimately chose a different vacancy in football.
The Englishman has recently been named head coach of Canada's National men's team, who are ranked 94th in the FIFA world rankings and did not qualify for the final six-team CONCACAF qualifying group for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Laura Harvey
Harvey was yet another name associated with the manager's role and the former Arsenal boss further enhanced those rumours following her resignation as head coach of National Women's Soccer League team Seattle Reign at the end of last year.
The 37-year-old spent five years in charge of Seattle, after her highly successful career at Arsenal in which she guided the Gunners to 13 trophies during her spell. She carried that form to the US, where she won two NWSL shield titles and was twice awarded the NWSL Coach of The Year.
With such a pedigree, it was no surprise that Harvey was linked with the England job. But, while she was initially interested in having talks with the FA, it was fundamentally not the right time for the manager and at the end of November, she instead decided to sign with the NWSL's newest team, the Utah Royals.
Why was Mark Sampson sacked as England manager?
The former England boss was sacked in September of last year following an investigation into his conduct at Bristol Academy, the club Sampson managed from 2009 to 2013.
The Lionesses were led to a third-place finish at the 2015 Women's World Cup in Canada during his tenure - they were not only the most successful European team in the tournament but they also marked the best performance by any senior England team, since Sir Alf Ramsey's World Cup winning side of 66'.
And most recently England reached the semi-finals of the 2017 European Championships, only to be beaten by hosts and eventual winners the Netherlands.
However, following the success Sampson found himself embroiled in controversy. He was brought into the centre of a dispute with Chelsea and England striker Eniola Aluko, following allegations of discrimination and accusations of 'bullying and harassment'.
The 34-year-old denied the claims and was cleared of any wrongdoing following an internal investigation by the FA - with the governing body stating that Aluko's allegation was unrelated to Sampson's sacking.
An FA statement read: "In 2014, safeguarding allegations were made against him about his time with Bristol. The safeguarding assessment was that he did not pose a risk working in the game."
"However, the full report of the investigation was only brought to the attention of the current FA leadership last week and it is our assessment that it revealed clear evidence of inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour by a coach.
It is on the basis that we have acted quickly to agree a termination of Mark's contract."
England's current form
Whilst the FA continue negotiations for a new manager, England is currently second in their World Cup Qualifying group, a point behind leaders Wales with a game in hand.
Their next qualifier is against Wales in Southampton on April 6.

G21 region's municipal council CEOs are heading to Canberra on Monday (10 Dec 2018) to meet high-level department officials on key infrastructure and community development projects.
The G21 delegation will explain the challenges facing the region and promote opportunities to invest in key region-building projects.
G21 CEO Elaine Carbines said departmental secretaries and senior executives were principal policy advisers to ministers and therefore important influencers.
"It's in our region's interests to ensure department heads and senior officials fully understand our region's issues," Ms Carbines said.
"The delegation is especially timely, with work on the coming budget already underway in Canberra departments and an election due in the new year.
"The delegation follows on from a G21 Board delegation in May this year, which met with senior ministers and shadow ministers.
"The delegation is part of G21's long-term strategy to reinforce the merits and key projects with decision makers in Canberra.
"The CEOs of G21's five member municipal councils will be advocating for G21's key priority projects.
"A particular focus will be on gaining clarification around the projects, and the next steps, for a City Deal for Geelong and Great Ocean Road.
"We aren't expecting commitments on projects while in Canberra. The aim is to ensure our region's needs are top-of-mind as Canberra's most senior bureaucrats provide advice to their ministers," Ms Carbines said.
The delegation expects to meet with the heads of departments or senior executives responsible for infrastructure, regional development, the environment, energy, industry, innovation, communication, the arts and social services.
"It will be a whirlwind one day visit of wall-to-wall meetings, however past experience tells us that these meetings are invaluable for their insights, which will pay dividends to the G21 region in the future," Ms Carbines said.
The G21 delegation will include: Lenny Jenner, CEO, Borough of Queenscliffe; Eric Braslis, CEO, Golden Plains Shire; Peter Brown, CEO, Colac Otway Shire; Martin Cutter, CEO, City of Greater Geelong; Anne Howard, Acting CEO, Surf Coast Shire; and Elaine Carbines, CEO, G21.

Another Year, Another Fucking Mess By the Academy

Last week, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences blessed us with their annual masturbatory list of what their (old and white) membership thought were the best films, performances, and technical achievements of the year. In typical form, they got it wrong and in many cases VERY wrong. Of course, they got it right in some places, too. But, as usual, the missteps fair outweighed what they got right.
So let's get into it…
Screw Jobs
Ava Duvernay getting screwed a la Katrhyn Bigelow for Best Director for Selma. Now, I'm in the same position as I was with Zero Dark Thirty not having access to the film yet. I will be getting a screener soon as I'm voting in the Independent Spirit Awards, so I will be able to pass full judgment then on the merits of the film. However, this is a film that has been so universally praised that it is hard to figure how Ms. Duvernay was passed over except that she is an African-American woman, one of whom has never been nominated in this category. That the membership of the academy is overwhelmingly white (93%) and male (76%) makes this hard to dismiss.
The Lego Movie not getting any nominations except for that annoying ass song is really sad. This is a film that appeared on a lot of Best of 2014 lists…for the whole year, not just for animation. That is was passed over is incredibly curious. It, like Selma, above has been universally praised as well. Perhaps the Golden Globes actually predicted this when How to Train Your Dragon 2 stole the award away on Sunday night. I'm frankly baffled by all of it.
Jenny Slate being passed over for a Best Actress nom in Obvious Child might perhaps be the biggest error of all. She brought such life to her character, Donna Stern, and was able to tackle one of the most polarizing topics in America today (abortion) with grace and wit. So, it's no wonder that the largely male population of the Academy dismissed the film and her performance. Shame on you, Academy.
Gone Girl getting NO love. I was surprised at how much I liked this one. I didn't read the book, because why do that when you can see the movie, right? The script by Gillian Flynn, who wrote the novel, was solid and David Fincher is always on point (unless he does an Alien film). Trent Reznor and Atticus Finch's score was just as good as the one they won for for The Social Network. So what missed here? HUGELY popular novel, great cast, great performance, a director at the top of his game…I don't understand. After seeing American Sniper, I honestly can't understand how it having such a terribly sentimental and hokey script, one that literally made me laugh out loud several times because of its ridiculousness, was able to secure a nomination over Gone Girl.
Paul Thomas Anderson not getting a nom for his direction in the wildly awesome Inherent Vice. Arguably the finest director working today (he has had ZERO misses in his oeuvre), it's hard to process this one. While not the most easy film to connect with, Anderson's abilities are on full display and from a technical sense, this should be all one needs in a film. I guess if this is that case, perhaps Jean-Luc Godard should have also gotten a nomination for his 3D masterpiece (from what I've heard) Goodbye to Language.
And lastly, I would like to point out that once again, Brendan Gleeson delivered one of the finest performances of the year in Calvary and was overlooked. Smaller and foreign films are so often passed over for these awards, and I understand in a way – Hollywood hosts these "look-at-us" awards every year to perpetuate their own machine, so if foreign stars take home the prizes, the lights grow a little dimmer in Hollywood. I get that. But fuck – get this man a nomination! He deserved the award for his amazing portrayal of Martin Cahill in John Boorman's The General. Funny enough the award that year went to Roberto Benigni, an Italian, for his super sappy performance in Life Is Beautiful. SIGH. I fucking give up. If you haven't seen Calvary, get there. It is my #1 film of 2014. It will blow you away.
I could go into great detail about the films they passed over, and will do so closer to the awards in February when I release my list of who and what I thought the nominees and winners should be.
Marion Cotillard's nomination for the Dardenne Brothers' latest opus Two Days, One Night was a bit of a surprise as most people were expecting Jennifer Aniston to grab one for her lauded performance in Cake. We all know that Cotillard has the chops as she has already won an Oscar for her role as Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose. But as I stated before, it's rare we see actors from foreign countries get the nods. While this film is still rolling out here in the US, I can't wait to see it. Both the Dardennes and Cotillard make great choices and the premise of this film – a woman has to convince her coworkers over two days and one night to vote to keep her job rather than firing her and splitting her salary as a bonus between them all – is one of the more intriguing of the year. I do wonder why it missed the Best Foreign film cut.
Jessica Chastain, like Amy Adams (who could have easily gotten a nod herself for Big Eyes), is somewhat of an Academy darling nominated twice already for her roles in Zero Dark Thirty and The Help. I thought she was a shoo-in for A Most Violent Year, playing a role similar to Jennifer Lawrence's in American Hustle.
But alas, Laura Dern took home the nod for her role in Wild. Honestly, I didn't even know she was in the film. So, yeah, I was a little surprised.
In the "How the fuck did this not happen" category – Foxcatcher gets nominations for Best Director (Bennett Miller), Best Actor (Steve Carell), Best Supporting Actor (Mark Ruffalo), Best Original Screenplay (E. Max Frye and Dan Futterman) and Best Achievement in Makeup and Hairstyling (Bill Corso and Dennis Liddiard). How the fuck does it not garner a Best Picture nomination? I have yet to see the film, but this simply doesn't add up.
And lastly, I'll end with American Sniper's 6 nominations. I saw the film last night and I just can't believe the Academy is as ridiculous as this. 6 nominations? Are you serious? Get out your pom-poms and let's kiss Eastwood's ass some more…except not enough to give him a Best Director nod. Does this mean that the film was good enough to make the Best Pic cut in spite of Eastwood's direction? They did nominate him in that fucking mess that was Mystic River and he won for the awful Million Dollar Baby.
That does it for the 2015 edition of Hey! The Academy Fucked It Up Again.

"Arms," by Kate Lu
Dec 20th, 2010 | By Defenestration | Category: Prose
When Philip had woken up this morning, he'd found that his arms had disappeared.
"Well, this is no good," he said, examining the smooth skin that now covered the place where his torso should have met his shoulder. He had no idea where they'd gone; he didn't remember lending them out to anyone or leaving them somewhere. They must have either been stolen in the night or had walked off on their own—as much as arms can walk, anyway.
Getting out of bed was difficult. So was trying to work the phone so he could call his boss and explain his situation. He set the phone on the floor and dialed with his toes.
"Hey Mike, I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be able to come in to work today," Philip said.
"Oh yeah?" Philip heard Mike yawn. "Why's that?"
"It appears I've misplaced my arms," Philip said evenly.
There was a long pause. "You've what?" said Mike.
"Misplaced my arms," Philip repeated.
There was a click, and the line went dead.
Philip decided that he would have to eat out for breakfast, because he wasn't sure that cooking with his feet would be a good idea. He picked up his wallet with his teeth and headed up the block to the diner.
Everyone stared when he walked in. He went up to the counter and ordered a plate of scrambled eggs before sitting down.
"What happened?" The owner, Lulu, set his food in front of him.
"Misplaced my arms," Philip explained. He put his face into the plate and tried to eat.
"I saw a man two blocks over selling some arms," she said. "Maybe you should talk to him."
After Philip had finished eating, and Lulu had wiped the excess egg off his face, he went to find the vendor who was selling arms. He was a grizzled-looking man with salt-and-pepper hair and shifty eyes. He had a table covered in a black cloth, littered with disembodied, but perfectly healthy, arms.
"Excuse me," Philip said, walking up to the table. "I think you might have my arms."
The man looked astonished. He gibbered. "Your—I don't think I— Couldn't have—"
"But they're right there," Philip said, pointing with his chin at a pair of pale arms sitting at the end of the table. "Look, I know times are hard, but can you just give them back, please? I won't press charges, I just need them."
The vendor paled. "All right. I don't want any trouble, okay?" He fitted Philip's arms back on his shoulders. They were a little numb at first, but they felt natural once they had warmed up.
"Thanks," Philip said to the vendor. He turned around and headed home.
When he woke up the next morning, though, one of his legs was missing.
Philip sighed. "This is going to be a difficult day."

Significance: The White River Bridge on Delaware County Road 750W was fabricated and constructed by the Indiana Bridge Co. of Muncie, Indiana in 1897. Its 199'-10" span is the longest in Delaware County. The steel truss bridge has been in constant use since it was constructed but its oak deck has been replaced as the need arose. The bridge clearly expresses its sophisticated design by varying dimensions in accordance with changing loads and resulting forces.

"Turkey Shoot" (1982) is a nightmare of depravity, dismemberment & hunted humans
By Bryan Thomas on June 14, 2019
In British-born director Brian Trenchard-Smith's notorious near-future blood & thunder shocker Turkey Shoot (1982), inmates are labeled "deviants" and sent to Camp 47, a brutal "behavior modification" prison before they're "chosen as human prey for rich people to hunt."
Now fully-restored in HD from the original vault negative by our friends at Severin Films — and rated "NSFW" for gratuitous nudity during a shower scene and obvious attempts at sexual titillation and innuendo — on Night Flight Plus.
Taking place in the year 1995 (or maybe it's supposed to be the year 2000, although in 1982 both years were still the not-too-distant future), Turkey Shoot is fast-paced action-packed cult movie mayhem.
We follow the fates of three new inmates sent to B.F. Skinner Re-Education and Behavior Modification Camp #47, which is run by the brutal "Charles Thatcher" (Michael Ward, his character likely named after unpopular British PM Margaret Thatcher) and a bunch of sadistic prison guards, led by the gargantuan "Ritter" (Roger Ward).
"Chris Walters" — the lovely Olivia Hussey, who stole our hearts as the prepubescent Juliet in Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo & Juliet – is a shopkeeper falsely accused of helping aid rebels.
"Paul Anders" — Steve Railsback, who for our money was the best "Charles Manson" ever, the star of the 1976 TV movie "Helter Skelter" not to mention 1980's The Stunt Man – is a political dissident who has previously escaped from other prisons.
Our third hero/heroine is blonde & big-boobed "Rita Daniels" (Lynda Stoner), accused of prostitution, which is apparently a major no-no in this repressive dystopian shit-world.
All three are selected to participate in the twelve-hour "Turkey Shoot," in which defenseless prisoners in yellow jumpsuits are released into the nearby wilderness to be stalked and killed by armed hunters.
The "Turkey Shoot" is something Thatcher regularly stages for his superiors — the head of the government's re-education program "Secretary Mallory" (Noel Ferrier), and government officials "Jennifer" (Carmen Duncan) and "Tito" (Michael Petrovitch) and then there's also Tito's beastly accomplice "Alph" (Steve "Crusher" Rackman) — all for their sicko amusement.
Severin Films tells us the three prisoners "… will be thrust into a nightmare of depravity, dismemberment, cleaved skulls, exploding heads, lesbians with crossbows, the insane hungers of a deformed cannibal circus freak, and more."
Brutal! No wonder the original film poster was emblazoned with the tagline warning: "No Film For Chickens."

Brian Trenchard-Smith & friend
British-born Brian Trenchard-Smith moved to Australia in 1970, where he was the founding editor of Movie magazine prior to directing his first of his forty-plus exploitation films.
Turkey Shoot's screenplay — by Jon George and Neil D. Hicks — was reportedly inspired by George Orwell's real-seeming fictional 1949 novel 1984 and by a couple of mostly-forgotten films — The Most Dangerous Game (1932) and The Naked Prey (1966) — but the influence of George Miller's Mad Max films can't be overlooked either.
In an essay on the making of Turkey Shoot for the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, published on June 23, 2008, Trenchard-Smith says Turkey Shoot — known outside Australia as Escape 2000 (the film's U.S. title) and as Blood Camp Thatcher (the UK title) — was always meant to be a satire.
The director says he ran into trouble when the production schedule was trimmed own from forty-four days to just twenty-eight ten-hour days, which meant a lot of he'd planned to shoot had to be scuttled at the last minute due to time constraints (the film was lensed in northern Queensland near Cairns).
"The prison camp had been built for five hundred extras," Trenchard-Smith writes, "but now we could only afford seventy-five on our biggest day. A range of challenges. How could I ensure an audience? I decided to increase the level of blood and black-hearted laughs into a sort of Lucio Fulci high camp splatter movie. Blood is cheap."
Executive producer David Hemmings shot some second unit, which he says caused some tension.
Trenchard-Smith writes that the Re-Education Camp's mantra — "Freedom is Obedience. Obedience is Work. Work is Life." — is the future that awaits America, "… if they don't come to their senses in November and put 'A Brain' into the White House."
(In 2008, American voters did elect "A Brain" for president, but we apparently decided to go brain-less in our 2016 presidential election).
Critics balked at Turkey Shoot's violence.
"Needless to say, critics did not share my sense of humour," writes Trenchard-Smith, "And to be honest, the film is far from perfect. The score is not my favourite, but a generation later sees it as part of the fun."
"But Turkey Shoot allowed me to push some genre clichés to their outrageous extreme. All filmmakers find themselves in situations where the playing field tips and the goal posts shift. You just have to develop some elasticity and go with the flow, while still trying to preserve the core of your original vision. But ultimately, a good movie in these circumstances is a saleable movie."
Trenchard-Smith writes that Turkey Shoot broke box office records in some Australian drive-ins, scored a U.S. theatrical release — albeit with censor cuts — and "ultimately video audiences across the globe discovered it as a guilty pleasure," building a loyal cult following.
Most of Trenchard-Smith's directorial work has been in television, and most of his films have been direct-to-video releases. Along with Turkey Shoot, a few of his best known films include StuntRock (1978) and Dead End Drive-In (1986).

Bailey Willey throws a pitch during Indian River's 10-0 mercy-rule win over First State Military Academy on Tuesday, May 22.
The seniors and their families line up for a photo 3during Tuesday's Senior Night event.
There was a point a few weeks back when Indian River High School baseball skipper Derek "D.J." Long was not happy with his team's attitude, approach and interest level in a game against Delmarva Christian High School. However, a team meeting after that game must have done wonders, because since that time the Indians have rattled off six wins of seven games, including Tuesday's 10-0 mercy-rule win over First State Military Academy.
Seven Indians seniors were recognized prior to the game, and it was some of those seniors who helped deliver the victory in their final regular-season game before the DIAA state playoffs.
Pitcher Bailey Willey pitched a complete game, needing just 57 pitches over five innings for the shutout win. The righty allowed just two first-inning hits, while striking out four and walking two.
The Indians banged out 10 hits, led by senior Cole Hitch's 3-for-3 day, while also knocking in two runs, and scoring another. J.J. Killen was 2-for-3 with a double, three RBIs and two runs scored. Senior Mark Smith scored a three runs for IR with his 1-for-1 plate showing.
In all, seven different Indians collected hits on the day. Jacob Anderson's lone hit was a double, and senior Brock Wingate was 1-for-1 with a triple and run scored. Grant Argo also knocked in a run for IR.
And he was more than happy with the effort he got on the bump from Willey.
The seven seniors for IR baseball this year were Willey, Hitch, Smith, Wingate, Myles Clark, Alex Pszczola and manager Andrew White.
IR scored four in the first inning, thanks to Hitch's two-run double, a passed ball and Argo's RBI single. They would add two more in the second on Killen's run-scoring single and another passed ball. Two more passed balls in the third inning scored a pair.
The game was brought to an end thanks to a two-run double to center by Killen.
The Indians picked up the No. 16 seed in the DIAA state playoffs and were set to open up against 17-seed Dover on Thursday, May 24, after Coastal Point press time. For results and highlights from the game, be sure to check out the Coastal Point sports Facebook and Twitter pages.


It's hard to get all the daily fiber we need from food alone. Fiber Choice® prebiotic fiber supplements contain inulin, the same dietary fiber found in many fruits and vegetables. Besides helping support regularity, inulin has important prebiotic properties that help support digestive and immune health.1 Each serving contains this FDA-approved dietary fiber to help patients get more of the daily dietary fiber they need for overall wellness. With Fiber Choice, patients don't have to sacrifice taste and convenience to get their daily fiber. Fiber Choice comes in a variety of delicious forms and flavors to help close the Fiber Gap™.
An important trial, CIFPRO (Chewable Inulin Fiber Patient-Reported Outcomes) was peer-reviewed and presented at the ACG Annual Scientific Meeting (American College of Gastroenterology) in October 2018.1 In this trial, Fiber Choice not only showed good results for helping support regularity, but it also showed an 84.9% patient satisfaction rate.
Just two delicious tablets help close the fiber gap. Assorted Fruit tablets come in tasty strawberry, grape, and green apple flavors. Each two-tablet serving contains 4 grams of FDA-approved dietary fiber.
Fiber Choice Fruity Bites are a delicious, convenient, and chewy way to increase your daily fiber intake with a variety of tasty flavors.
Fiber Choice Flavor Drops are a convenient and tasty way to get more of your daily dietary fiber. This is a water enhancer that contains soluble corn fiber and is especially appropriate for an active lifestyle. Its concentrated liquid prebiotic fiber dissolves quickly and fully in water for a great-tasting treat with more of the daily dietary fiber you need for overall well-being. Unlike many fibers, both inulin and corn fiber are FDA-approved dietary fibers with known physiological benefits.
Fiber Choice is available at Walmart, Target, CVS, and many food retailers.

The Gazans Who Lost Everything in an Israeli Bombing
Diaa al-Khazandar
Gideon Levy reports in Haaretz, Jul 12, 2019 :
After the air force bombed Gaza in the latest round of fighting, in May, hundreds of people who lost their homes haven't recovered. Residents of two destroyed buildings offer new testimony of the disaster that befell themAccording to the United Nations, 327 residents of the Gaza Strip lost their homes in the wake of bombing by the Israel Air Force during the latest round of fighting, in May. In new testimony, compiled by Olfat al-Kurd, a field researcher for the Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem in Gaza, the occupants of two large apartment buildings that were bombed and left in ruins recall the moments of horror when they were forced to leave and the devastation wreaked on their lives.
Mahmoud a-Nakhaleh, 29, proprietor of a woman's clothing store: "On May 4, 2019, a bit before 9 P.M., I closed my shop and went into the shoe store next to me. We heard a commotion on the street. Neighbors from the building next door were shouting, telling us the [Israeli] military had called them and said it was about to bomb the Al-Khazandar building, which is our building, and that we had five minutes to get out. We quickly left the premises and stood about a hundred meters away.
"We saw a drone fire two small missiles [as a warning] to make people vacated the building. A few minutes later, another missile was fired on the road by the building. I tried to go back into my store to get the merchandise out, but security forces and other people who were there wouldn't let me. At 9:30 P.M., they bombed the building with two missiles. It was reduced to a pile of rubble.
"I felt like I was about to have a stroke. I couldn't believe my eyes. I lost my business and the merchandise in the store. There was merchandise from Turkey on the second floor that I had received about a week ago. I was planning to sell it during Ramadan and over the holiday.
Mahmoud a-Nakhaleh at his replacement store in Gaza, June 2019. Olfat al-Kurd / B'Tselem
"I don't know why the Israeli military hurt us in such a barbaric way. I don't belong to any organization or faction in Gaza. I'm a self-employed young man who's working for my own and my wife's future, and for my father's, who invested in the business and is helping us make a living. I lost everything I had. All the work I put in was lost right in front of my eyes. What did I do? My future had turned black.
"Everything is under the rubble. I haven't managed to salvage anything so far. I have nightmares every night because of the business and the money I lost. It was right before Eid al-Fitr, which is supposed to be the busiest time for clothing suppliers and retailers in Gaza.
"My wife and I want to leave the Gaza Strip and move somewhere where we can build a good life, make a living, and enjoy basic rights. A place with a future. I don't feel like a human being. I lost hope after my business was destroyed. The Israeli military destroyed our lives and left us with nothing."
Diaa al-Khazandar, 66, retired physician, married, father of three: "On May 4, 2019, at 9:30 P.M., I was at home in the Rimal neighborhood when I learned from neighbors of the building we own that it had been hit by two warning missiles and that about 20 minutes later, Israeli warplanes had bombed the building and turned it to a pile of rubble. We didn't get any warning phone call from the military. I don't know why they bombed it. It's not a military installation.
"My brothers and I built that building and put all our savings into it, so that it would provide us with income and our children with apartments once they got married. Within minutes, everything we invested was buried. My life was turned upside down. My hopes were dashed. My future became dark. The building was a source of hope and income for us and for our sons.
"This wasn't the first time Israel hurt our family. In 2008, Israeli bulldozers demolished my home in Beit Lahia. It was a two-story house. We've been living in rentals ever since. They also bulldozed the tile factory my brothers and I had in the Nahal Oz area, east of Gaza City. Now they've demolished our building, too. I'm an ordinary person, a doctor. I don't belong to any party."
Amjad Jabr, 28, single, owned a shoe store: "Disaster struck me while I was in the store. The occupants of the next building were informed that they had to vacate their homes, because our building was going to be bombed. The neighbors told us. I left the business without taking a thing. We went out to the road quickly, abandoning the store and the merchandise. The building was bombed five minutes later. We were standing about 100 meters from it. We went on waiting, totally stunned, and without knowing why the building was being bombed.
"Within minutes it was a heap of rubble. Seven stories collapsed and lay level with the ground as though they had never existed. I was distressed and went into shock. Within minutes, I had lost everything I had. An hour later, after I'd lost hope of finding some of the merchandise, I went home, devastated because of the future that was wiped out. Everything went down the tubes.
"Why do they bomb us with missiles, especially when I am an ordinary resident and don't belong to any party or organization? I am a young man who wants to earn a living and is working to secure his future. My whole investment was wiped out in a minute. They ruined my business, which cost me a fortune.
"I did not lose hope. Twenty days after the business was bombed, I rented another store and laid out the expenses again. I bought new merchandise. I raised the money by selling a plot of land I owned. I had planned to build myself a house on that land and get married, but unfortunately all my dreams and plans have been wiped out. I lost the store and the merchandise. Still, my situation is better than that of others."

Al-Qamar building, Gaza City, May 5, 2019
At about 5 P.M., the Israel Defense Forces informed residents of the Al-Qamar building, in the neighborhood of Tal al-Hawa, that the structure would soon be attacked and that they must vacate it. A few minutes later, before all the occupants had managed to leave, some aircraft fired a "warning missile" at the building. About 30 minutes later, at approximately 5:30 P.M., the building was struck by several assault missiles and completely destroyed. According to the IDF, Hamas had dug tunnels under the building.
Ghadah al-Wakil, 30, is a homemaker, married and a mother of three. Her family had been living in a rental apartment on the building's fifth floor for some three years. Her parents and four of her siblings lived in the apartment across the hall: "I was home with the children. My sister, Shatha, who is 16, came into our house yelling: 'Bombing! Bombing!' I didn't understand what she meant. I thought maybe someone in the family had been hurt in a bombing. It took a while until I realized they were going to bomb our building. I picked up my son Muhammad, who is 18 months old, and tried to call my husband, Tamer, but he didn't answer.
"In the meantime, without my noticing, my sisters had taken my other two children, Alaa, seven months, and Yamen, who is 6 years old, and left. I started shouting and looking for the kids. In the meantime, my husband called back. I told him, while screaming in a panic, that the building was going to be bombed and I didn't know where our children were. I was terrified. I went into the neighbors and asked them where the kids were. I was so scared, I didn't realize I was actually holding Muhammad. When my husband came, I took a last sad look at our apartment, and then we went down. All the residents were in the stairway. Everyone was shouting very loudly.
"A warning missile hit the building while we were still inside it. I went into the street. All the neighbors were there. I didn't see anyone from my family – not my parents, not my children. I was scared they'd stayed in the building and that it would be bombed with them still inside. I kept looking for my children until I found them. They were all with my parents. They were frightened, screaming and crying, barefoot and in their underwear.

"My husband's family came and took us to their house. I was crying hysterically. I had hoped the bombing would hit only one floor, or one apartment, but when I heard it, I realized the whole tower had been destroyed. I went into shock. I just sat and said nothing. Everyone tried to talk to me, but I just kept silent. I didn't understand what had happened. I still don't understand why they bombed my home, the building I'd lived in.
"We stayed in my husband's parents' home for 10 days. It was tough. The room was small and crowded. Then we moved to a house my parents had rented. Their apartment was destroyed, too. I thought we'd rent our own apartment, but our financial situation is really hard. My husband is unemployed, and rent is high – at least twice what we paid in the building that was bombed.
"Our children are in a terrible emotional state. Yamen hasn't gone to school since the bombing. They have nightmares and keep waking up at night. Yamen keeps talking about his room and his toys. They went through weeks of panic. There wasn't a lot of food. They kept getting a fever. Muhammad has become very aggressive. He keeps hitting his brothers, breaking toys and screaming. We've lost so much. There's no compensation for the memories we had in that house. The scary evacuation, the anxiety and the shouting, were all a terrible experience."
I'atimad Abu Eishah, 58, a married mother of seven, lived in a rented apartment on the second floor: "We were all at home. Suddenly, we heard shouting in the building. I asked my son Kathem, who is 41: 'What's going on? It looks like a bombing.' Suddenly, the neighbors shouted to us: 'Get out of the house. Go downstairs. The Israeli army is going to bomb the building.' I panicked. I didn't know what to do. We all got very frightened, and the children started screaming.
"We left right away, wearing house clothes that aren't acceptable to wear outside. We put on our shoes as we were going down the stairs. My son Nael went down with his young girls, and they cried and screamed the whole way down. I needed help going down the stairs.
"When we were going down, we thought they were probably going to bomb just a particular apartment in the building. I didn't think they'd bomb the whole tower. I saw all the residents on the street, crying and shouting. About 20 minutes later, the building was bombed. I cried so hard for the house. My heart was broken, even though I didn't own it. It was my home, the roof over my and my family's head. Now, I, my children, and my grandchildren have become homeless.
"We stayed with my son's friend for about 10 days, and then we found another rental apartment and moved in. It's unfurnished. There are no beds or appliances, and we don't even have kitchenware. The apartment we had before was spacious. It comfortably fit a family of 11. Now everything is in ruins.
"We all sleep on the floor, on mattresses we received from the Red Cross. I have no washing machine, no fridge. My daughters-in-law have lost their gold jewelry, and my son lost merchandise for his store that he was storing at home. We even left our IDs at home.
"My granddaughters had a room full of toys, school bags and books. Everything is gone. It's all under the rubble. They have a hard time falling asleep because of the fear. They've also started wetting their beds again. I sleep next to them. When they hear a loud noise, they wake up screaming, 'Grandma! Grandma!' – thinking it's a bombing."
