2016 Annual Report NEXT PAGE 2016 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Thank you for being a part of the CHOICE Humanitarian family Dear Friends, On behalf of the staff, Board of Trustees, and the tens of thousands of villagers whose lives you have helped improve, thank you for being a part of the CHOICE Humanitarian family. Together, we reached new heights in 2016, and we owe this success to you for two reasons. First, you believe that extreme poverty can and should end in our lifetime. And second, you trust that CHOICE Humanitarian is the organization best suited to achieve this goal. We are thrilled to share this annual report that highlights our collective impact in 2016. As we now celebrate our 35th year, we are rejoicing that a billion people have moved out of extreme poverty in the last two decades. Furthermore, we are continuing to improve and grow in the areas of measurement and evaluation, linking emerging markets with company needs, and launching new technologies that assist us in our work. Everyday, I am humbled by your continued belief and faith in CHOICE to eradicate extreme poverty. The truth is that it takes time, talents, and money to empower our brothers and sisters around the world. Thanks to your commitment, compassion, and contributions, we are able to carry out our mission and improve lives in ways that are real and measurable. Quite simply, you are the reason CHOICE continues to flourish and, on behalf of the entire CHOICE team, I cannot thank you enough. If you have any questions or would like to discuss how you can best contribute to the CHOICE team, I would love to speak with you. -

Jewish Experience on Film an American Overview
Jewish Experience on Film An American Overview by JOEL ROSENBERG ± OR ONE FAMILIAR WITH THE long history of Jewish sacred texts, it is fair to characterize film as the quintessential profane text. Being tied as it is to the life of industrial science and production, it is the first truly posttraditional art medium — a creature of gears and bolts, of lenses and transparencies, of drives and brakes and projected light, a creature whose life substance is spreadshot onto a vast ocean of screen to display another kind of life entirely: the images of human beings; stories; purported history; myth; philosophy; social conflict; politics; love; war; belief. Movies seem to take place in a domain between matter and spirit, but are, in a sense, dependent on both. Like the Golem — the artificial anthropoid of Jewish folklore, a creature always yearning to rise or reach out beyond its own materiality — film is a machine truly made in the human image: a late-born child of human culture that manifests an inherently stubborn and rebellious nature. It is a being that has suffered, as it were, all the neuroses of its mostly 20th-century rise and flourishing and has shared in all the century's treach- eries. It is in this context above all that we must consider the problematic subject of Jewish experience on film. In academic research, the field of film studies has now blossomed into a richly elaborate body of criticism and theory, although its reigning schools of thought — at present, heavily influenced by Marxism, Lacanian psycho- analysis, and various flavors of deconstruction — have often preferred the fashionable habit of reasoning by decree in place of genuine observation and analysis.
