The enemy doesn't need to destroy you to keep you from being a spiritual force for good in the world. Far better for him if you are merely sleepy when it comes to the reality of conflict in what Paul calls "the heavenly places." One person yawning induces those around her to yawn. After that comes the sedation of the daily round — eating, working, shopping, resting, sleeping. Soon your reflex is to think, "all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation" (2 Pet 3:4). This is the opioid crisis of the suburban Church, including the immigrant churches that discover glorious American materialism. Finally you feel ease and contentment, while the demons assigned to your care exult in nearly effortless victory.
"You fancy that I'm going too far, and laying it on too thickly. You are secretly saying to yourself, that [we] may surely get to heaven without all this trouble and warfare and fighting. Listen to me for a few minutes and I will show you that I have something to say on God's behalf. Remember the maxim of the wisest general that ever lived in England: 'In time of war it is the worst mistake to underrate your enemy, and try to make a little war.' This Christian warfare is no little war.
'Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life.' 'Endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.' 'Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.' … 'Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace but a sword.' 'He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.' 'Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.' 'Fight the good fight; holding faith, and a good conscience' (1 Tim. 6:12; 2 Tim. 2:3; Eph. 6:11-13; Luke 13:24; John 6:27; Matt. 10:34; Luke 22:36; 1 Cor. 16:13; 1 Tim. 18;19).
I've always wondered if Peter's pleading with us to be "sober and vigilant" (1 Pet 5:8) isn't an echo of his remorse over Mark 14:37: "And [Jesus] came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, 'Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour?'" All men are in a lifelong struggle to move from boyhood to manhood; to stand in the places and responsibilities that fall to us; to know which hills to die on, then how to persevere. How Peter must have regretted that he slept while his redeemer, the one who had and would love him so, fought on his knees against death and hell. He knew (all men know) it was a failure of manhood.
But with time he also came to know it wasn't just that he was weak. He also learned that Satan is a predator and that the unwary become prey. So he learned how to fight: emotional and intellectual sobriety, spiritual vigilance, willful resistance, prayer. And perhaps even more importantly, after feeling the sharp edge of personal failure, he learned how to hope again: "…after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen" (1 Pet 5.10-11).

Joan Barry: The Most (In)famous Actress to Never Appear on Screen
By Matthew Mandarano
In the summer of 1941, Charlie Chaplin, the most universally recognized personality on the silver screen, began working on a script for a film which would never come to fruition. The film was to be titled Shadow and Substance, based on the Paul Vincent Carroll stage play of the same name. Like many of Chaplin's prior films, Shadow and Substance was to propel a relatively unknown young woman to stardom as his new leading lady. In this case, the lucky, aspiring starlet was to be Joan Barry. However, Barry's recognition to the masses was ultimately to be painted in infamy.
Chaplin, who was born April 16, 1889, in London, England, was 52-years-old when he met Joan Barry, 31 years his junior, in June, 1941. In his autobiography, aptly entitled My Autobiography, Chaplin describes the woman he came to know as Joan Barry as, "…a big handsome woman of twenty-two, well built, with upper regional domes immensely expansive and made alluring by an extremely low décolleté summer dress, which…evoked my libidinous curiosity" (413-14).
Joan Barry was born Mary Louise Gribble in Detroit, Mich., on May 24, 1920 (or 1919, sources vary), to Gertrude and James A. Gribble. Her father was a bus driver and a salesman, in addition to being a "shell-shocked" World War I veteran. Mary had one sister, Agnes, who was born Sep. 6, 1923. Her father committed suicide in December, 1926 in New York City and her mother, subsequently, married John E. Berry in 1927. Mary assumed Berry's last name, though not legally at the time. The family lived in New York until moving to Cuyahoga County, Ohio, in 1930. They shortly moved back to New York where, according to Barry, she graduated from New Town High School in Jackson Heights. The high school, however, has no records of a Mary Louise Gribble, Joan Berry or Joan Barry ever having attended.
A few months after graduating high school, Barry came to California in pursuit of a career in the movies. By 1938, low on funds and down on her luck, she met a shoe salesman by the name of Mark Warner with whom she struck a relationship. In December, 1938, Barry was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department for stealing dresses from a local department store. She was put on probation, with one of the terms being that she was to return home to New York. She obliged and worked as a typist for Chubb and Sons insurance agency through most of 1939. She returned to California in late 1939 and lived with Mark Warner. After the dissolution of this relationship, Barry began living in various hotels under the name Mrs. Mark Warner. It was during this period that she met multi-millionaire oilman J. Paul Getty.
After a trip home to New York in October, 1940, Barry made several trips back and forth from Los Angeles to Mexico City visiting Getty. In May, 1941, she came to Hollywood with a letter of recommendation to Tim Durant from A.C. Blumenthal, an associate of Getty's. Durant asked Barry if she wanted to meet Charlie Chaplin or Spencer Tracy. Barry said she would like to meet Spencer Tracy.
A dinner party was set up with Tracy and several other guests on his yacht. When the other guests disappeared, Barry got the feeling that the whole evening was a ploy to hook her up with the actor. Barry took a taxi home, refusing to let Tracy pay for the fare. Durant called Barry the next day, intrigued that she had paid her own fare back to the city. Barry informed him she was heading to New York for a visit home in a few days; he asked her if she would like to meet Charlie Chaplin before she left. She said she would.
In late June, 1941, Chaplin, Barry, Durant and an unidentified young woman went to eat at Perino's Restaurant on Wilshire Boulevard. When Durant realized he was not going to make headway with his date, he excused himself and he and the young woman were escorted home by Chaplin's chauffer. Chaplin and Barry remained at the restaurant chatting until the establishment closed. Subsequently, they rode up and down from Los Angeles to the beach several times in Chaplin's car continuing their conversation, which touched on J. Paul Getty, communism and, primarily, the motion picture industry.
"I think it is a cruel town, that I had come to Hollywood full of hope and ambition, only to discover that unless you know someone of importance in the movie industry, who would give you a break, it is almost impossible to get into pictures" (Chaplin FBI File 1446), remarked Barry on the troubles of breaking into the industry.
"I could tell you have a great deal of talent just by speaking with you" (Chaplin FBI File 1446), responded Chaplin.
Right then and there Chaplin mentioned putting Barry under contract with his studio, Chaplin Studios. Not surprisingly, Barry could hardly believe her ears and felt that Chaplin would forget all about it in the morning. However, he gave her his phone number on an envelope and told her to contact him soon.
Barry was put under contract to Chaplin Studios on June 23, 1941, for the sum of $75 a week, renewable for an extension within six months at $100 a week. Chaplin and his long-time studio manager, Alf Reeves, both insisted that Barry not make it public that she was under contract to Chaplin Studios.
Barry and Chaplin consummated their relationship sometime after her signing the contract and their relationship, though not a public one, was blossoming. Chaplin helped Barry get an apartment, as she was staying at the Ambassador Hotel at the time, and he paid the first two months rent.
Though Chaplin and Barry's relationship grew during the summer of 1941, Chaplin relayed in his My Autobiography that, "…something [was] queer and not quite normal [about his and Barry's time together.] Without telephoning she would suddenly show up late at night at my house. This was somewhat disturbing. Then for a week I would not hear from her…however, when she did show up she was disarmingly pleasant, so my doubts and apprehension were allayed" (414).
Barry was indeed a complicated personality. By this time, not only had she gone under nearly a half dozen aliases, but in the FBI records on Chaplin, which number almost 2,000 typed pages, mostly declassified to the public in the early 1980s, Barry was described in many accounts as aloof and somewhat strange acting. Chaplin's studio manager, Alf Reeves, expressed that he noticed Barry was "erratic, emotional, hard to talk to, and could easily effect a vacant stare in her eyes" (Chaplin FBI File 1237). The stenographer for the FBI relates several times of the unbalance in Barry's behavior, once stating, "It is to be noted that she [Barry] is a girl who becomes very emotional upon occasion" (Chaplin FBI File 1442).
It seems at times, however, that Barry could also be quite pleasant, as she was generally liked by Chaplin's butler, Edward Chaney, and well regarded by Stephen Seck, Barry's son from a subsequent marriage, who remembers his mother as "very gifted, a talented singer who worked hard to support us (he and his brother, Russell, and half-sister, Carol Ann). We were never neglected in any way" (Seck Interview).
During the fall of 1941, Barry was planning a trip home to New York and came under suspicion that she might be pregnant. Yet, she was perplexed by this in that Chaplin had told her that he was unable to have children, though he had two adolescent sons from his marriage to his second wife Lita Grey Chaplin (1908-1995), Charlie Jr. (1925-1968) and Sydney (1926-2009). When Barry told Chaplin of the pregnancy, he told her he would pay for her to have an operation in New York, though Barry later ending up having the abortion under the supervision of a Los Angeles doctor, a Dr. A. M. Tweedie.
After the first abortion, Barry was fitted with a diaphragm. Chaplin, however, did not want to use it during intercourse. By December, 1941, Barry felt she might be pregnant again. Chaplin, who took the news as a joke, insisted she get another abortion. Barry reluctantly agreed and had a second abortion under the supervision of Dr. Tweedie. Upon completion, she spent four to five days recuperating at Chaplin's home on Summit Drive in Beverly Hills. This second abortion took a much higher toll on Barry's health and longer for her to recover, though she did mention to the FBI that Chaplin was quite good to her and did what he could to help during her stay at his home.
On the business end, Chaplin had not done a film project at this point since The Great Dictator (1940), and was working primarily on a soundtrack for The Gold Rush (1925). The idea for his next film came during a luncheon with Sir Cedric Hardwicke and author Sinclair Lewis, who, during conversation mentioned the play Shadow and Substance by Paul Vincent Carroll. Lewis referred to the character of Bridget, the lead role in the play, as a modern day Joan of Arc. Chaplin was intrigued and requested a copy of the play to read.
In talking about the play over dinner one night, Barry mentioned she would like to play the role of Bridget. Chaplin didn't take her very seriously at first, but after she performed an excellent private reading, he gave her a screen test. Her screen test took place on Jan. 26, 1942, and it was deemed that she was photogenic and could work for the part. In his autobiography, Chaplin states that at this time "…all my qualms about her oddities vanished" (414).
Over the next few months, Barry was in strong preparation for her starring role in Shadow and Substance, for which Chaplin had by now purchased the film rights. Chaplin Studios paid for Barry to get dental and orthodontic work done, were paying for her to attend the Max Reinhardt Workshop for acting and Barry was bought a fur coat for $1,200 at the May Company as a special gift.
In a passage from David Robinson's definitive biography on Chaplin, Chaplin: His Life and Art, "There is no question about Chaplin's sincerity in believing that he could make Joan Barry into an actress….he [Chaplin] said she had 'all the qualities of a new Maude Adams' and told his sons, 'She has a quality, an ethereal something that's truly marvelous…a talent as great as any I've seen in my whole life" (512).
During this time, both Barry and Chaplin mention that each was going his or her separate way, but they were not unfriendly with each other. Barry was immersed in preparation for her role and Chaplin was busy writing the script for Shadow and Substance. According to My Autobiography, Chaplin states that, "…strange and eerie things began to happen" (415) around this time, such as Barry driving to his house all hours of the night, drunk, and smashing his windows when he refused to answer the phone or open the door to see her. He mentions that, "Overnight, my existence became a nightmare" (415).
On May 22, 1942, Barry broke her contract with Chaplin Studios so that she could do a screen test with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The termination of the contract was deemed "amicable" by Barry in an interview with the FBI. She also relayed in the interview that she was supposed to remain in effect for six months and did receive payments from the studio until September, 1942.
Through the summer and into the fall of 1942, Chaplin continued steadily working on the script for Shadow and Substance and he and Barry had sporadic, if any contact. By late 1942, the script was reported as finished. In Chaplin: His Life and Art, David Robinson, who as an official biographer had access to the Chaplin archives, reports that the finished script for Shadow and Substance is "…excellent, though he [Chaplin] is much less interested in the issues of Catholicism than in the human and humanist content of the play" (514).
As Chaplin was diligently working on the Shadow and Substance script, on a broader scope, the world was at war. The United States entered the war as part of the Allied forces following the bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. However, at this point America's declaration of war was specifically limited to the Japanese front; while on the German front Russian casualties were mounting at an alarmingly high rate. Most Americans, due to their anti-communist inclinations, were not obliged to support entering a second front. Chaplin, whose sons Charles Jr. and Sydney were both to be drafted into service before the end of the war, felt differently.
In May, 1942, the American Committee for Russian War Relief in San Francisco called Chaplin to see if he would speak at a meeting in place of former American Ambassador to Russia, Joseph E. Davies, who at the last moment had to pull out due to sickness. With short notice, Chaplin accepted and took a train to San Francisco the following morning.
Chaplin, who was to take the podium for nearly an hour, prefaced his speech with a few glasses of champagne to calm his nerves. He began the speech by addressing the members as "Comrades" and according to My Autobiography, "…made them laugh and applaud with anecdotes about Roosevelt and about my war-bond speech in the First World War…" (409). He concluded the speech with a call to action, urging members to send thousands of telegrams to President Roosevelt in support of opening the second front.
Garnering a new knack for public speaking and following a fourteen-minute long radio address organized by the Council of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, Chaplin accepted an invitation to speak at Carnegie Hall at a rally that was brought together by the Artists' Front to Win the War. The rally was held Oct. 16, 1942. Chaplin arrived in New York and checked into the Waldorf-Astoria the day before.
Barry was also in New York during Chaplin's 23-day stay, having arrived with her mother, Gertrude, on October 2. Accounts of how and why she was there differ. According to Barry, Chaplin had paid the tickets for Barry and her mother to come to New York via Los Angeles to "be near him" for his speech. Chaplin, on the other hand, attested that he had paid for the tickets and given Barry $5,000 to pay off her debts so that she would renege on her contract with Chaplin Studios and in hopes that he could be rid of her for good.
During the New York stay, it is generally agreed that Chaplin and Barry had one meeting at his hotel room in the Waldorf-Astoria. During this time, Chaplin gave her $300 which she would subsequently use to transport herself and her mother back to Los Angeles. It is disputed whether or not they had sexual relations during their brief meeting in New York.
Again, Chaplin and Barry had limited if any contact for the next couple months. It is recorded that Barry went to Tulsa, Okla., to visit Getty around November 17. Meanwhile, through the months of November and December, Chaplin had several more speaking engagements for a second front in New York and Chicago, as well as beginning the script that would become his next completed film, Monsieur Verdoux (1947).
Barry's account states that in December, 1942, she bought a couple of guns and was going to kill herself because of her deep love for Chaplin and the fact that their relationship had become stagnate. After a series of telephone calls to Chaplin's residence on December 23, she broke onto the grounds of his mansion at 1085 Summit Drive in Beverly Hills with a pistol in hand. She rang the doorbell numerous times and then went to the back and banged on the door several times before breaking into the house through a window. According to Barry, Chaplin was on the phone in his bedroom when she arrived. Chaplin spent more than hour trying to convince her to surrender the gun to him. Eventually, she agreed and did spend the night at Chaplin's home, though according to Chaplin they did not engage in sexual relations, as he had locked the door to the bathroom between his room and the room in which Barry stayed. Barry, in contrast, insisted that they did have sexual relations that night and that Chaplin even joked of the "ironic twist" of making love while the pistol lay on the nightstand. The following morning, Chaplin gave Barry some money and she left the property. A week later, Chaplin called the police when Barry again showed up at his residence. She was charged with a ninety-day suspended sentence and was ordered to leave town.
Several days after the December 23 incident, according to Chaplin Studios files, Shadow and Substance was shelved indefinitely. However, before leaving the script behind for good and after the dissolution of Barry's contract with the studio, Chaplin did have a meeting in November, 1942, with one aspiring actress vying for the role of Bridget who would have a large, lasting impression on the rest of his life. This aspiring actress was seventeen-year-old Oona O'Neill, daughter of noted American playwright Eugene O'Neill. In the midst of turmoil to come, Chaplin and Oona would eventually marry on June 16, 1943, in Santa Barbara. It was Oona's first marriage and Chaplin's fourth.
As Chaplin continued work on a script entitled Landru (eventually to become Monsieur Verdoux) through early 1943 and into the spring, Barry again visited Getty in Tulsa, Okla., then spent some time in New York with her mother before returning to Tulsa and, ultimately, coming back to Los Angeles. Once in Los Angeles, it was discovered that Barry was pregnant.
Deciding to inform Chaplin of her condition by again intruding on his property, Barry was arrested by the Beverly Hills Police Department a second time and sentenced to ninety days with sixty of those days suspended if she would leave town and not return. Due to her pregnancy, most of the time was spent in a sanitarium. Also, through the month of May, Barry was in correspondence with gossip columnist Hedda Hopper, who vehemently despised Chaplin, and informed her mother Gertrude of the situation, who, subsequently, came to Los Angeles from New York.
On June 4, Barry informed the press that Chaplin was the father of her unborn child. That same day, Barry's mother, acting as guardian to the child, filed a paternity suit against Chaplin. The suit demanded $10,000 pre-natal care, $2,500 a month for support of the child and $5,000 in court costs. Also, around this time Chaplin first caught wind from his friend Justice Murphy of the U.S. Supreme Court of the fact that the United States government was trying to find a way "to get Chaplin." Matters were not helped by the fact that the American press was lamenting Chaplin as a villain who had fathered Barry's unborn child and, in turn, had her arrested and left her destitute.
Agreement was eventually reached by Chaplin and Barry's lawyers that Chaplin would give Barry $2,500 in cash and $100 a week for support, in addition to $500 a month before the birth, $1,000 at the birth and $500 a month for four months successively after the birth if she and her child would agree to a blood test. If at least two of the doctors on the panel said it couldn't be his child, Barry and her mother would have the case dropped. If the doctors said it was maybe his child, then Barry would be free to press suit. This delayed any proceedings with the paternity suit until early 1944. Chaplin gave his deposition in the Barry case Sept. 14, 1943, and on Saturday evening, Oct. 2, 1943, Joan Barry gave birth to a daughter, Carol Ann, in a Los Angeles Hospital.
At this same time, the United States government was itself building a suit against Chaplin. Long wanting to pin Chaplin for his leftist actions and supposed communist affiliations, the FBI started a thorough investigation that, once completed, would amount to some 2,000 pages of memos, interviews, depositions and biographical information. The government was building their case around the United States White-Slave Traffic Act of 1910, better known as the Mann Act after American lawmaker James Robert Mann. The allegations were based on the transporting of Joan Barry in October, 1942, to and from New York with intention of having sexual relations with her. This violation of the Mann Act falls under section two of the original White-Slave Traffic Act, which was passed by the sixty-first Congress on June 25, 1910, which states:
That any person who shall knowingly transport or cause to be transported, or aid or assist in obtaining transportation for, or in transporting, in interstate or foreign commerce, or in any Territory or in the District of Columbia, any woman or girl for the purpose of prostitution or debauchery, or for any other immoral purpose, or with the intent and purpose to induce, entice, or compel such woman or girl to become a prostitute or to give herself up to debauchery….upon conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five thousand dollars, or by imprisonment of not more than five years, or by both such fine and imprisonment, in the discretion of the court.
Chaplin was indicted by a Federal grand jury Feb. 10, 1944. Just days after Chaplin's indictment by the grand jury, blood tests were submitted from Barry and Carol Ann by three physicians; one representing Barry, one representing Chaplin and a third physician of neutrality. It was determined that Chaplin, whose blood type was O, and Barry, whose blood type was A, could not have possibly produced a child whose blood type was B. John J. Irwin, Barry's lawyer, at first suggested the possibility that Chaplin took some form of chemical to alter his blood type; however, a few days later, Irwin digressed and resigned as Barry's attorney.
Following the blood tests, Loyd Wright, Chaplin's attorney in the paternity suit, filed a motion for dismissal. However, Superior Court Judge Stanley Mosk overruled the motion. Subsequently, because Barry's mother Gertrude was in agreement to drop the suit if the tests proved negative, the court was assigned guardianship of Carol Ann and brought suit against Chaplin on her behalf. The new trial was set for December, 1944.
Meanwhile, Chaplin was tied up with the criminal allegations of the Mann Act. Against the advice of his friend Justice Murphy not to hire a big name attorney, Chaplin hired well-known criminal defense lawyer Jerry Geisler. On top of the humiliation of the Mann Act case being brought against him on the heels of such a well-publicized paternity suit, insult was added to injury when photographers and the press were allowed to be present during his fingerprinting.
Chaplin was arraigned Feb. 21 and plead not guilty in the Mann Act case or in the conspiracy case, which listed six other individuals along with Chaplin in aiding towards a conspiracy to violate Joan Barry's civil rights. The Mann Act case opened March 21, 1944, in which U.S. District Attorney Charles Carr was to have to convince beyond a reasonable doubt a jury of seven men and five women that Chaplin violated Joan Barry's civil rights in New York in October, 1942. The case was heard by Judge J.F.T. O'Connor.
The prosecution fought hard with a slew of witnesses to prove Chaplin's guilt as Geisler fought to prove the absurdity of the case itself. Barry and Chaplin both took the witness stand during the trial, Geisler remarking of Chaplin's time in the stand that he was, "the best witness I've ever seen in a law court." On April 4, the jury deliberated for about three hours and took four ballots to unanimously decide that Chaplin was not guilty on all accounts. Violations of the civil rights charges were subsequently dropped on May 15.
In the interim between the Mann Act case and the second paternity suit, Chaplin and Oona celebrated the birth of their first child, Geraldine Leigh Chaplin. Geraldine was to be the first of eight children born to Chaplin and Oona between 1944 and 1962. The second paternity suit concerning Carol Ann Barry opened Dec. 13, 1944, with Judge Henry Willis presiding. For this case there was a jury of seven women and five men. Chaplin hired attorney Charles A. "Pat" Millikan to represent him and Barry's attorney was 77-year-old Joseph Scott.
While Millikan relied heavily on two witnesses, the neutral doctor present at the administering of the blood tests and a Tulsa lawyer, O.C. Lassiter, who relayed information on Barry's November, 1942, trip to Tulsa to visit Getty; Scott, relied on sentiment and striking an emotional chord with the jury. The lambasting of Chaplin by Scott through the trial stayed with Chaplin for the rest of his life. Scott's referral to Chaplin as "a little runt of Svengali", a "cheap Cockney cad" and "a hoary headed old buzzard" penetrated Chaplin's innermost insecurities. However, Jan. 2, 1945, the jury could not reach a verdict, though seven to five were in favor of an acquittal. A retrial was opened April 4, 1945, with Judge Clarence L. Kincaid presiding. The jury for the retrial consisted of eleven women and one man. Because blood tests were inadmissible in the California justice system at that time, their outcome was of no use in Chaplin's favor. On April 17, with an 11 to 1 vote, Chaplin lost the paternity suit. Judge Kincaid ruled that Chaplin would make payments of $75 a week to Carol Ann, with an increase to $100 as her needs grew until she reached the age of 21. She was also legally entitled to adopt the surname of Chaplin. Chaplin's attorneys filed for a motion for a new trial on May 10, but it was declined less than a month later.
The paternity suit itself has been analyzed in forensics articles and law schools ever since it took place with interest paid primarily to the blood tests which theoretically prove Chaplin's innocence. Yet, according to Edward Chaney, who was employed as a butler for Chaplin beginning in December, 1941, and present during his October, 1942, trip to New York and the night of Dec. 23, 1942, "In about June of this year (1943) Mr. Chaplin was having a conference with Mr. Wright and Mr. Millikan, his attorneys, I heard him tell them that he had an affair with Joan Berry in October, 42'…that was a surprise to me…he also told his attorneys that he had been intimate with Joan Barry in his house in December, 42′. This was the time when she came up there with a gun." (Chaplin FBI File 936).
Richard Lamparski, author of the popular "Whatever Became of…" series which details the then and now lives of many famous celebrities, was a friend of Lita Grey Chaplin (1908-1995), Chaplin's second wife and father of his elder sons, in her later life. According to Lamparski, in person at Grey Chaplin's residence, she confided to him that during that time many Los Angeles government agencies and the justice system were "extremely corrupt and you could buy anything" (Lamparski Interview). She further relayed to Lamparski that Chaplin had paid to have the blood tests tampered with and that "there is no doubt that she (Carol Ann) was his child" (Lamparski Interview).
Following the trials, Chaplin's public image in the United States was badly tarnished. His next film, Monsieur Verdoux (1947), a dark comedy about a murderous bluebeard, failed at the American box office both commercially and critically upon its release, though Chaplin considers it one of his finest films. Chaplin would complete one more film in the United States, a film which most agree was his final masterpiece, though not his final film, Limelight (1952). Chaplin's re-entry permit was rescinded by the U.S. government while he voyaged to London for the premiere of Limelight in September, 1952. Never to return to live in the United States, Chaplin made his home in Corsier sur Vevey, Switzerland from 1953 until his death. Chaplin released two more films after Limelight (1952), those being A King in New York (1957) and A Countess from Hong Kong (1967). He also scored and added soundtracks to many of his early silent features including The Gold Rush (1925), The Circus (1928) and The Kid (1921). He hoped to make one last movie entitled The Freak about a South American girl who sprouts wings and is passed off by captors as an angel before being arrested because of her appearance. He was to have his daughter Victoria from his marriage with Oona play the lead role. Test footage was made with Victoria in costume, though Chaplin never got to complete the film.
Twenty years after his exile from the United States, Chaplin was invited by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to attend the Academy Awards ceremony and receive a special honorary Oscar. He attended and was greeted with a standing ovation that to this day is the longest standing ovation in Oscar history. Through all the humiliation the United States government caused Chaplin, he said in later years that he could not hate America because of all it had given him. In 1975, Chaplin was named on the New Year's Honor's List and was, subsequently, knighted March 4, 1975, as Knight Commander of the British Empire. After his knighthood, Chaplin's robust health began to deteriorate and he died in his sleep on Christmas Day 1977 at his home, Manoir de Ban, in Swtizerland. He was 88 years old.
Following the second paternity suit in late 1945, Joan Barry moved to Pittsburgh, Penn., to pursue singing lessons and try to start a career as a night club singer under manager Don D'Carlo. However, Barry was in a legal row again, when D'Carlo sued her in January, 1946, for commissions from a $1,000 weekly night club act in Detroit. The Detroit night club manager disclosed that her contract had been reduced to two weeks with a $1,250 settlement because of "numerous heated arguments." In October 1946, she married Russell C. Seck, a railroad clerk, in a small town outside of Aliquippa, Penn. She had two sons from the marriage, Russell C. Seck, Jr. (born 1947) and Stephen Seck (born 1948). In August, 1953, Barry was committed to Patton State Hospital, a mental institution in San Bernardino, Calif., by her mother after being found in Torrance, Calif. "walking the streets barefoot, carrying a pair of baby sandals and a child's ring, and murmuring: 'This is magic'" (TIME Magazine 17 Aug. 1953).
According to her son, Stephen, the family lived together in Los Angeles and moved to Acapulco, Mexico, for a short time when the U.S. government was again trying to get Barry to testify against Chaplin in an undeveloped case. She refused to incriminate him. He remembers his mother as a kind, caring woman who always tried to do the best she could for her family and remembers her having a wonderful singing voice. In 1953, at the age of five, he moved with his father and brother to Ohio where he would graduate high school. He has not seen his mother since, having last talked with her on the phone in the mid 1960s. He and his family hired private investigators to try and track her down over time, but she seems to have disappeared. He assumes she may have remarried and is more than likely deceased.
Several sources on the Internet show a death date of 1996 for Barry, that in no way can this author validate. After hundreds of hours in search of what happened to her, through marriage, birth, death, divorce and public records, every road leads to a dead end. Attempts to locate a former brother-in-law, Alfonso Altavilla, were unsuccessful. A social security number listed on page 921 of the FBI files on Chaplin is valid, but tracking the number has proven inconclusive.
Carol Ann Barry received payments from Chaplin on time for 21 years as the court ordered. After her mother was committed, she was entrusted to a legal guardian, an attorney, A. H. Risse of Los Angeles, Calif. She went under a name other than Carol Ann and was attending a private school according to a Stars and Stripes article from 1954. As of February 2009, Carol Ann Barry, 65, was alive and well living in the western United States. She recently retired from a career in which she helped many under privileged people. According to her brother, Stephen, she has many freckles like that of her mother. However, Carol Ann has no interest in speaking of the paternity suits. As a young child, that was a different world that did not concern her. She has strived to live a normal life and enjoys her privacy. Her grandmother, Gertrude Berry, who filed the first paternity suit, passed away in Los Angeles on Sep. 8, 1980, at the age of 80.
Shadow and Substance was never completed by Chaplin. The script still remains in a vault in Switzerland with the rest of Chaplin's work. He did toy with ideas of reviving the script and making it into a film around the time he decided to shoot A King in New York (1957), but nothing materialized. It is an interesting theory to wonder what might have happened had Joan Barry taken the lead role in Shadow and Substance and fate worked a different way. All sources that exist seem to relate that she had great potential as an actress. It seems, however, that destiny, if there is such a thing, had other plans for Barry and Chaplin. The paternity suit and Mann Act cases were two of the biggest celebrity-related tabloid headlines of the decade and the effects took a strong toll on the career and public view of one of the world's most cherished comedians.

Michael G. Ankerich (07:54:45) :
Very well done! A mystery, indeed!
Charlie Chaplin persecuted for sex with Joan Berry (23:53:12) :
[…] FBI 1:5. Berry had two more abortions that she attributed to pregnancies resulting from sex with Chaplin. Berry's testimony and other evidence indicates that Chaplin and his confidants pressured Berry into having these abortions and paid for the abortions. FBI 2:152-7 (report dated 2/25/44). Newspaper articles of the time refer to these abortions obliquely as "operations". Berry first met Chaplin about May 27, 1941, signed a contract with Chaplin's studio on June 23, 1941, and first had sex with Chaplin about this time. In her testimony at the first Chaplin paternity trial (started Dec. 19, 1944, jury returned deadlocked Jan. 4, 1945), Berry "denied positively that she had been intimate with any other man since she met Chaplin." See "Joan Berry Asks Juror to Name Chaplin Father," Los Angeles Times, Dec. 21, 1944, p. 2. Paternity blood tests conducted and reported in Feb. 1944 clearly indicated that Berry had sex with a man other than Chaplin since she met Chaplin. FBI records on the Chaplin-Berry affair make clear that Berry was active in Hollywood night life apart from her relationship with Chaplin. FBI 2: 158-66. From Nov. 6-17, 1942, Berry took a trip with J. Paul Getty to Miami Beach, Florida. FBI 1:108-9. Following the legal resolution of her relationship with Chaplin, Berry had a troubled life. See Matthew Mandarano, "Joan Barry: The Most (In)famous Actress to Never Appear on Screen." […]
anon (10:19:51) :
A good, interesting article. At the end of the movie "Charlie Chaplin" they give a blurb saying they never found out what happened to her – where or how she died – only that she was in and out of mental institutions. A sad ending for the lady.

Am grauen Strand, am grauen Meer ist ein im Auftrag des Fernsehens der DDR durch die DEFA hergestellter Spielfilm von Klaus Gendries aus dem Jahr 1980, nach der Novelle Hans und Heinz Kirch von Theodor Storm aus dem Jahr 1883.

Handlung
Der Schiffseigner Hans Kirch ist wohlhabend und lebt mit Frau, Sohn Heinz und der kleinen Tochter Lina als angesehener Bürger in einer Gemeinde am Meer. Er strebt einen Sitz im Rat der Gemeinde an und ist ein erfolgreicher Geschäftsmann, was ihm allerdings in der Gemeinde missgönnt wird. Sein Sohn Heinz soll einmal die Tochter des Pfarrers heiraten und die Geschäfte des Vaters übernehmen. Doch vorher soll Heinz auf einem Schiff und großer Fahrt nach Asien sein Steuermannspatent erwerben. Danach soll er in seine Heimat zurückkehren.

Am letzten Abend vor der Abfahrt trifft sich Heinz, der dafür seinen Vater belügt, mit seiner heimlichen Liebe Wieb, der Tochter einer Tagelöhnerin. Er verspricht ihr die Heirat nach seiner Rückkehr von der Seereise und erhält von ihr eine Halskette mit Ring zur Erinnerung. Der Vater bringt seinen Sohn am nächsten Morgen zum Hafen, wo die Seereise des Sohnes beginnt.
Nach kurzer Zeit auf See kommt der erste Brief von Heinz im Elternhaus an, in dem er von seinen ersten Fahrten und dem Lob des Kapitäns berichtet, welches er für seine Umsicht auf See nebst einer Belohnung erhielt. Der Vater, die Familie und alle Bediensteten des Hauses sind stolz auf den Sohn des Schiffseigners und veranstalten aus diesem Anlass einen fröhlichen Tanzabend.

Heinz kehrt aber selbst nach 14 Monaten auf See nicht nach Hause zurück, obwohl das Gerücht in der Gemeinde umgeht, er wäre längst in Hamburg angekommen. Er schickt eines Tages einen unfrankierten Brief an seine Familie. Der Postbote verlangt deshalb vor Überreichung vom Vater das Porto für den unfrankierten Brief. Dieser verweigert die Zahlung und damit auch die Annahme des Briefes. Er schlussfolgert aus diesem Brief die Erfolglosigkeit seines Sohnes und ist tief enttäuscht. Auch der Mutter verbietet er den Brief zu "kaufen". Wieb kann den Postboten auch nicht überreden ihr den Brief zu verkaufen. Der Postbote sendet den Brief zurück.

Die Mutter stirbt wenig später an einer Krankheit und kann ihrem Mann wegen seiner Härte gegenüber dem Sohn nicht verzeihen.

14 Jahre vergehen. Aus der kleinen Lina Kirch ist eine junge Frau geworden, deren Heirat mit dem erfolgreichen Herrn Christian Marten bevorsteht. Er soll an Stelle des Sohnes Heinz die Geschäfte des Schiffseigners übernehmen. Lina bittet ihren zukünftigen Ehemann aber inständig, die Tür des Hauses für den vermissten Bruder Heinz immer offenzuhalten.

Nach einer Versammlung des Gemeinderates erfährt der Vater, dass sein Sohn in einer Hamburger Schänke gesehen wurde. Er begibt sich nach Hamburg, sucht den Sohn, findet ihn und kehrt mit ihm nach Hause zurück. Doch sein Sohn hat sich nicht nur vom Aussehen her sehr verändert. Er ist scheu, wortkarg, interessiert sich nicht für die Familie oder die Geschäfte des Vaters und verbringt nur viel Zeit mit dem Sohn seiner Schwester Lina, dem er Seemannsgeschichten erzählt. Auch zu seiner alten Liebe Wieb nimmt er keinen Kontakt auf. Diese ist inzwischen die Frau des Besitzers der Dorfschänke geworden, in der sie auch arbeitet.

Auf einem Fest der Gemeinde befragt Lina den Gemeindearzt danach, ob Tätowierungen leicht von der Haut verschwinden können. Der Arzt verneint dies. Ihr Bruder Hans hatte eine selbstgemachte Tätowierung auf dem Handrücken, die nun aber nicht mehr zu sehen ist. Lina zweifelt auch deshalb die Identität des Bruders an. Sie teilt ihre Befürchtungen ihrem Mann und dem Vater mit, die dadurch ein Gerücht, dass in der Gemeinde umgeht, bestätigt sehen.

Heinz ist während des Festes zur Insel gerudert, auf der er vor 14 Jahren mit Wieb seinen letzten Abend verbrachte. Auf dem Rückweg trifft er im Hafen einen Schiffer, auf dessen Kahn er zum nächsten Morgen für eine Fahrt nach Dänemark anheuert. Er geht noch einmal in die Dorfschänke und gibt sich Wieb endlich zu erkennen, die verzweifelt über sein Aussehen und ihre Situation ist. Sie offenbart ihm, dass sie nicht mit ihm die Gemeinde für eine gemeinsame Zukunft verlassen kann, da sie an ihren Mann, den Dorfschänken-Besitzer, gebunden ist. Heinz gibt ihr zum Abschied die Halskette mit dem Ring zurück, die er vor mehr als 14 Jahren von ihr erhielt. Er kehrt zurück in das Haus seines Vaters und packt seine Seemannskiste zum morgendlichen Aufbruch, um das Elternhaus für immer zu verlassen.

Nachdem Tochter Lina dem Vater eröffnet, nicht mit einem Fremden – gemeint ist Bruder Heinz – unter einem Dach leben zu können, entschließt sich der Schiffseigner die Angelegenheit mit Geld zu regeln. Er zählt eine hohe Summe zusammen und bringt das Geld in das Zimmer des Sohnes. Er gibt dem "fremden Sohn" Heinz den Umschlag mit dem Geld und geht wort- und grußlos davon. Heinz öffnet den Umschlag, nimmt aber nur einen Teil des Geldes und lässt den Rest im Umschlag zurück, bevor er sich auf den Weg zum Hafen macht und besteigt das Schiff nach Dänemark. Die Familie ist froh, dass er gegangen ist.

Wieb geht am nächsten Tag in das Haus des Schiffseigners und berichtet ihm von der Halskette und dem Ring, die sie von Heinz zurückerhalten hat. Nur er könne der richtige Sohn des Schiffseigners gewesen sein und das Zweifeln an seiner Identität sei falsch gewesen. Auch Lina glaubt an diesen Beweis und dass dieser "fremde" Mann wirklich ihr Bruder war. Sie will ihn zurückholen, doch der Vater verbietet es. Er lehnt es ab, dies alles als Beweis für die Existenz seines verlorenen Sohnes anzuerkennen. Er spricht zu den beiden Frauen: "Wer hier unter meinem Dache geschlafen hat, das Salz nicht zum Zubrote verdiente, war nicht mein Heinz. Mag er geheißen haben wie er will! Es ist nicht dieser gewesen, der vor 17 Jahren hier fortging". Weil der Sohn ein erfolgloser Mensch wurde, der nichts mit sich anzufangen weiß, hat er ihn aufgegeben. Wieb verlässt das Haus, Tochter Lina weint entsetzt, doch der alte Schiffseigner schreibt ungerührt in sein Rechnungsbuch.

San Patrignano (Rimini – Italy), the largest community for the rehabilitation of drug addicts in Europe, will host the 2005 European Jumping Show Championships. The allocation was officially announced yesterday in Moscow, during the annual meeting of the FEI Executive Board, the main decisional body of the International Equestrian Federation, chaired by HRH Dona Pilar of Borbon.
For the first time in the sport's history, a drug rehabilitation community will be the hosting venue of such a prestigious event. The equestrian centre of San Patrignano – 110 x 60 mt. grass arena, 70 x 40 mt. warm up arena indoor, 75 x 50 mt. training area - will host the top European equestrian jumping show from July 20th to July 25th, 2005.
"This decision represents an unprecedented innovation in the world of sports and a unique opportunity to prove the deep relationship between sports and solidarity" say Andrea and Giacomo Muccioli, respectively Responsible of the community and President of the organising committee. "Since many years San Patrignano's stud and the jumping team have been successfully taking part to the most relevant breeding activities and equestrian competitions gaining important results in top class events such as the Olympic Games and World Championships. We are well known for the quality of our home bred horses and for the successful organisation, since 1997, of the International horseshow (CSI-A) hosted in the community. Having said that, being designated the hosting venue for the European Championships represents an extraordinary result, far beyond our expectations. The FEI's decision shows the appreciation for the work of the entire community and it is for us the most tangible proof of the successful rehabilitation of many of our guys, now fully reintegrated into society thanks to their regained strenght. We are very grateful to the FEI and to the Italian Equestrian Federation in particular, for having so strongly supported our candidature. The European Championships in San Patrignano will represent the celebration of all equestrian championships, combining Sport with Solidarity for all those participating, from the Government representatives, to the officials, the riders, the media representatives or simply fans".
Cesare Croce, President of the Italian Equestrian Federation (FISE) expresses his full satisfaction for the final decision made by the FEI Executive Board: "We have been able to achieve the prestigious result of bringing back in Italy this top level competition, after 40 years. Our total support went to San Patrignano for three main reasons: first, the international credibility gained by Italy in the organisation of major sport events starting in '98 with the hosting of the World Equestrian Games. This week top equestrian sport is back in our country, in Verona, with the participation of top class riders in the FEI World Cup. The second reason is the growth of our jumping team, both in standard and technical level. We can count today on highly competitive riders such as Gianni Govoni, 5th in the recent World Championship in Jerez; Jerry Smit and Roberto Airoldi, who are now part of the èlite of the international jumping circuit. But the most important aspect is related to the human and social values related to San Patrignano's candidature: Sport is deeply part of our society and it can play an important role in helping people face the challenges of life, particularly the youngsters. I am glad that we have the chance to make equestrian sport carry out this message to the world".
The community of San Patrignano is located close to Rimini, on the Adriatic coast, in the Northern part of Italy (Bologna is the nearest International airport) and it extends on 250 hectares. Over the past 24 years the community has hosted more than 18.000 people and the majority of them, with the support and help received, have been able to regain their place in society, as responsible people, active and free at last from drugs.

Q: Windows not asleep but monitor will not turn on This is one of those almost-impossible to Google questions because the results are flooded with results about 'sleeping' computers and monitor problems.
My Windows 10 laptop monitor is fine, as is the external HDMI monitor. Additionally, my computer is not asleep. However, in my "Power & sleep settings" I have my screen set to turn off, when plugged in, after 15 minutes. I have it set to never go to sleep, when plugged in.
The problem is, on occasion, when I come back to the computer with the black screen, I can't get the monitor to turn back on. I hit keys and nothing. Again, the computer is not asleep and I can see the back light on the keyboard as well as the power and HDD lights. The only thing I can do is hard reboot, which I don't like to do.
Besides changing the setting so that the screen is never turned off, is there anything that can be done here? Thank you.

This gray newborn floral headband newborn photo prop comes in a variety of cool gray tones. It's designed with the highest quality of handmade chiffon flower petals, freshwater pearls and up-cycled fibers and nature's elements.
The band is made up of a stretch textured fabric and must be tied together to have it fit to the baby's head. We have tied it for you but you can undo the knot and adjust it if needed. This works great when wanting to fit one product on multiple babies with varied head circumference.

Угличский индустриально-педагогический колледж — среднее образовательное учреждение в городе Угличе.

История

Новинская учительская семинария (1871—1915)
Государственная Новинская учительская семинария была основана 16(28) ноября 1871 года в селе Новом Мологского уезда Ярославской губернии. Усадьба, в которой расположилась семинария, принадлежала А. В. Сухово-Кобылину, который по совету К. Д. Ушинского продал её для организации учебного заведения. В 1914 году основное здание семинарии сильно пострадало от пожара, и 1 июля 1915 года учебное заведение было переведено в Углич. В 1919 году семинария преобразована в Угличские педагогические курсы, в 1921 году переименована в Угличский педагогический техникум. В 1936 году педтехникум получил наименование педагогического училища.

С конца 1870-х до 1886 года в семинарии преподавал Е. М. Слуцкий, отец экономиста Е. Е. Слуцкого. Среди выпускников гимназии художник Е. В. Честняков.

bloggers unite
The Change Within
June 29, 2009 May 5, 2010 | cjlevinson
Thousands attend a rally in Isfahan supporting Mousavi (photo: faramarz)
Today bloggers from around the world are uniting in support of the protesters and human rights in Iran. What's happening in Iran is despicable and I'm proud to join them today; to see innocent people left beaten and dying on the streets, their free speech and hopes trampled into the ground, is something everyone should condemn.
I had planned to write a poem but I haven't had enough time to finish it; it's taken longer than I thought and I don't want to compromise it, so I will post it later this week. I thought I'd post some more general thoughts about what's happening in Iran and free speech instead.
Recently there has been a debate raging in Australia about censorship and free speech, particularly online. The government wants to introduce a mandatory internet filter to block child pornography and other harmful content but it has met strong opposition. The problem is that it slows connections and doesn't work as intended; there are ways around it and it has blocked other content as well, including an abortion site and others which have nothing to do with abuse.
I'm strongly against the filter, not just because I consider it censorship and there is no way to know what's on it but also because I fear it could be exploited later on. I would much rather have an opt-in filter that parents could use, rather than one which applies to everyone regardless.
But earlier today, while I was watching the scenes from Iran, I thought how lucky I am to live in a country where we can have an honest and open debate at all. So many countries can't. That's what we're seeing with Iran right now.
I can't imagine living in a country where I could be arrested for touching the hand of a female friend; to not be able to have a real conversation in public or listen to popular music; to have to follow a strict code of dress. Sometimes I think we take what we have for granted and I can understand the protesters' anger, to have felt so close to those freedoms, only to have them disappear.
The situation in Iran has become much worse since my last post. The crackdown has intensified again, with local members of the British Embassy being detained by security forces and a violent clash with protesters outside the Ghoba Mosque on Sunday resulting in numerous injuries. Mousavi also appears to be distancing himself from the street protests and a partial recount of votes has found no sign of fraud or error, creating more doubts.
It's becoming much harder to see how the protests can continue from here, facing overwhelming force and waning support. While the opposition seems to be entering a new phase, trying to be cautious and find new ways to protest, without the majority of clerics siding with the protesters it's unlikely they will be able to succeed.
If change is to come to Iran now I think it will likely have to come from the inside out. It's now become a matter of changing perceptions and pushing back boundaries, letting ideas spread over time; once the culture begins to change, there'll be another chance. Even if it's not until Khamenei dies.
Given how serious the situation has become I'm glad for events like this Bloggers Unite day. I know some people will dismiss it and other events like it as meaningless but I think what's happening in Iran should be condemned by every person who values freedom and democracy in the world. This and the petitions online give us a way of showing our support.
I don't expect anything to come from it but if it means that even one person in Iran is encouraged by our support and knows they aren't alone, then I think it's worthwhile. We live in an open society but being free also means we know what people have to lose, so I think it's even more important that we stand up to show our support when it's needed.
If there's something we can learn from this, whatever happens, I hope it's that people realise the world is a much smaller place than they think. Fifteen years ago it seemed like other countries and cultures were so distant but the world is a lot smaller now and as technology continues to spread, our differences fade away; we realise we want the same things — freedom, hope, peace — and that's what I see on the streets of Tehran. That we are the same; the rest is just politics.
The more I think about it, though, the more I feel that if we truly want peace and change in the world, then we have to look within ourselves first. Even if it's just to set an example, to show we're willing to do more than just watch, that we will change our ways as well. By making a difference in our own lives, we can pass it on and help others in the world.
I wonder if people looked honestly at themselves, how many would want to make a change? Would their eyes be open enough to criticise themselves, to see their flaws? I know it's something I want do more; to be less negative, less selfish, to see the world in a different way. Perhaps through the changes in my life, I can then help someone else.
That's what I take away from what's happening in Iran. It's an opportunity for all of us to look at what's really important, the things we want to change in the world and in our own lives.
If we do that then, whatever happens, the protesters won't be forgotten.
To our friends in Iran, please stay safe. We're thinking of you.
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul.
If one member is afflicted with pain,
Other members uneasy will remain.
If you have no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you cannot retain.
– Saadi

Any thoughts on how to either disable mysql while i investigate or resolve the issue through configs?
Ah i think i also misread your solution.
This will make sure the Portal is not affected by the mysql asp.net driver.


Newborn babies (especially little boys named Jacob!) are the sweetest, little things to grace this earth. I love how they scrunch their face in protest one minute but then smile in their sleep the next. And there's really nothing better than getting to spend time with a sweet little boy like this one on a rainy Saturday morning!
This family is one of my favorites! I'm biased though, since I grew up with this beautiful lady who is now the mama of not one, but TWO gorgeous girls! And how sweet is that banner in baby L's nursery?
The one thing that never fails to amaze me is how quickly babies change. Even in the matter of a couple weeks, suddenly they seem so grown-up! Luckily I was able to sneak in an at home session with Ava in addition to visiting her in the hospital.
Seeing her cuddled up with her mama and daddy, along with overprotective pup Bailey, was just the sweetest.
Karson was one sleepy babe during her session. But, really. Babies are just pure sweetness when they're all cuddled up, breathing heavily. And this one. Well, she is one of the sweetest girls, with the biggest, brightest blue eyes when they are open.
You know that person that's like 'sorry boss, my friend had a baby. I've got to leave?' That was me. I think I made it through about two hours of work before high-tailing it over to the hospital to meet Lauren and Joe's new little one. Lauren actually took my son's hospital photos, so it was only fitting that I be the one taking hers.
Baby Ava, you are already so loved. And beautiful. With the most perfect fingernails that any newborn can have. You are definitely on your way to being a hand-model someday.


The day after President Trump's inauguration Presidential spokesperson Kellyanne Conway who defended a number of outright lies posited by then Press Secretary Sean Spicer in his first press conference as alternative truth. The statement was astounding and was met with much criticism and ridicule, but it reflected a key tenant of the administration that facts as they are, are unimportant, that truth itself is malleable.
In the year since the inauguration the nation has been subjected to a propaganda campaign by the administration, the right wing media led by Fox News, certain members of Congress, and a host of flacks including prominent pastors. This campaign, often led by the President's early morning Twitter storms labels any opposing news or facts as "fake news" while often demonizing and sometimes threatening those making the reports or conducting investigations of the administration.
William Shirer who served as a correspondent in Berlin from 1934 to 1941 wrote in his book The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich about the corrosive power of repeated lies by the leaders of the Third Reich and its propaganda organs on people who in every other way were completely ordinary.
I have had similar experiences sitting and talking with people are much like the Germans that Shirer was speaking and I shake my head.
I often wonder how did we got to this point as I watch and read the President's tweets, speeches, interviews, and the comments of members of the administration and his allies. I am perplexed about how we did got to the point that a presidential spokesperson, as well as once respectable Republican members of Congress, and former administrations can defend outright lies and refer to them as alternative facts.
You are describing most of my family. All good Catholics, all well educated. But all have succumbed to the propaganda spewed out by Fox news & Breitbart.
At last… someone who SAYS what 'everyone' else is thinking!!!

The 2018 SEMA Show is right around the corner, and as usual, Ford plans to have a wide variety of modified vehicles on display. This year, Ford says its booth will be filled with more than 50 cars, trucks, and SUVs, so these first five modified Mustangs announced this week are just the beginning.
Starting with a 2018 Ford Mustang GT coupe, dealership and custom shop Galpin Auto Sports went for a road racer look with a custom wide-body kit, front splitter, rear diffuser, and 20-inch wheels wrapped in Toyo R888-R competition rubber. The 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 receives a Ford Performance/Roush supercharger and cat-back exhaust, and the six-speed manual transmission benefits from a Ford Performance short-throw shifter. The stock springs, shocks, and anti-roll bars have all been replaced by parts from Ford Performance, and the brakes have been upgraded to Shelby GT350R spec.
Mustang parts retailer CJ Pony Parts returns to SEMA with a Mustang GT drift car. Though it's hard to see in this rendering, the pony car wears a stars and stripes livery in dark shadow gray, which is contrasted by copper accents. Thanks to a Ford Performance/Roush supercharger, the car's stock 5.0-liter V-8 has been boosted to more than 700 hp, which should be plenty to break Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S summer tires loose. If more persuasion is needed to hang the rear end out, this drift 'Stang comes equipped with a hydraulic handbrake from Sikky Manufacturing. Ford Performance track springs lower the car on 20-inch HRE FF04 wheels finished in copper. Inside, there's a Watson Racing roll cage painted to match the rest of the car's copper accents, along with Recaro seats and Corbeau five-point harnesses.
Yet another Mustang GT with a Ford Performance/Roush supercharger, this build from CGS Motorsports is ready for Halloween with its dark exterior theme and blood red accents. The GT wears a custom wide-body kit from TS Designs, a rear spoiler and hood vents from Air Design, LED undercar lighting from Rigid Industries, and a staggered set of Savini forged wheels measuring 22 x 9.5 inches in the front and 22 x 13 in the rear. Inside, you'll find Napa leather upholstery and LED lighting by Diode Dynamics.
SEMA Show veteran Tjin Edition chose the turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost Mustang over the 5.0-liter GT for its build this year. Finished in a custom Electric Purple paint by PPG, the four-cylinder Mustang also sports an RTR body kit, custom wide-body fenders with exposed rivets, yellow fog lamps, and a staggered set of gold Forgeline center-lock wheels measuring 20 x 10.5 in front and 20 x 13 in the back. The engine gets an upgraded turbocharger from BorgWarner along with racing-spec replacements for the exhaust manifold, downpipe, intercooler, and charge pipes. The car rides on an adjustable Air Lift 3H suspension and gets a Baer Grizzly big brake upgrade in front.
This Mustang GT by Bojix Design should help brighten up Ford's SEMA booth with its two-tone blue and gray paint scheme. Using Ford Performance springs and shocks, the car is lowered on Savini SV67 wheels that measure 20 x 10 up front and 20 x 11.5 in the rear. The custom pony car also gets an APR carbon-fiber front splitter and rear wing, custom lower front grille, and a front bumper, side skirts, and hood vents from Air Design. Not to be outdone by the other blown GTs on this list, Bojix Design installed a Procharger Stage 2 supercharger and a custom "supercar" exhaust with Borla mufflers. Inside, you'll find Recaro Sportster CR seats upholstered in black leather with black stitching, a deleted rear seat, and a Kicker stereo system with 10-inch Solo-Baric L7 subwoofers.
Ford should release details on the other custom rides it will feature in its booth over the coming weeks, so stay tuned.

È nato a Renon nella provincia autonoma di Bolzano nel 1944, si è laureato in psicologia poi si è dedicato all'alpinismo raggiungendo una certa notorietà con scalate e sport invernali estremi. Con Francesco Casolo ha scritto tre volumi dedicati ai suoi viaggi e all'incontro col popolo Inuit.

Biografia

Robert Peroni è nato nel 1944 a Renon nella provincia autonoma di Bolzano e dopo gli studi in medicina e psicologia si è dedicato agli sport invernali anche estremi oltre a spedizioni nel deserto attraversando il Sahara.

Nel 1980 ha lasciato l'attività sportiva diventando guida per una spedizione di trenta persone in Groenlandia con un equipaggiamento di sopravvivenza di tre mesi. Dopo una traversata di 1550 km su una slitta è arrivato a Tasiilaq, cittadina raggiunta dai primi esploratori nel 1884 e solitamente collegata solo con elicotteri. Qui ha incontrato il popolo degli inuit e ne è rimasto affascinato avvicinandosi alla cultura di questa terra e della sua piccola comunità; per dieci anni si è dedicato all'attività di guida per spedizioni private e scientifiche rientrando solo brevemente in Italia. Dopo una spedizione in condizioni estreme in Groenlandia del nord ha deciso di rimanere e dedicarsi alla popolazione locale minacciata nella sua sopravvivenza anche dai mutamenti climatici. Peroni si è integrato con i nativi, ha acquistato una casa dove ospitare i giovani inuit in difficoltà e offrendo lavoro ai locali. Col tempo l'edificio è divenuto un albergo che ospita i turisti delle spedizioni nordiche diventando la Casa rossa. Sull'ingresso vi è scritto Noi qui siamo a casa loro.

Ha contribuito a far conoscere gli inuit come popolazione che da secoli viveva unicamente di caccia alle foche, alle balene e agli orsi bianchi che le recenti leggi hanno reso illegale sia in Canada sia in Norvegia ignorando le condizioni di questo popolo che tradizionalmente caccia per sopravvivenza e privandolo di ogni forma di sostentamento come la tradizionale vendita delle pelli di foca e obbligandolo all'assistenza dell'ente pubblico danese. L'aiuto economico statale tuttavia fa venir meno le ragioni sociali e tradizionali caratteristiche del popolo che per secoli ha conservato la sua autonomia in un ambiente inospitale. Questo problema è maggiormente sentito dai giovani che si allontanano incontrando difficoltà con culture diverse e
facendo aumentare i casi di alcolismo e di suicidio. Peroni col suo lavoro e con la pubblicazione dei libri scritti con Francesco Casolo contribuisce a far conoscere la situazione drammatica di questa popolazione. Dal 1980 abita nella parte più orientale della Groenlandia allontanandosi solo raramente dalla sua nuova patria di adozione come nel caso della presentazione al Trento Film Festival del film La Casa Rossa nel 2021.

HomeOur History
Heritage congregation traces its beginnings to 1968 when members of Hiawatha Lutheran Church of Minneapolis began holding services at a junior high school in suburban Burnsville. Hiawatha pastor Carl Wosje served this group, followed by Rev. F. Weyland. The congregation was formally organized in 1971 as a mission congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod and joined the synod that same year. The original church building, now used as a multi-purpose room, was built and dedicated in 1973. In 1995 the present worship sanctuary was added. In 2008 additional school rooms, gymnasium, and entry narthex were added.
Heritage congregation has been served by the following pastors:
