Tunnel Rats (2008)
My rating: 4/10
I mean, for what it is (Uwe Boll doing namsploitation), this is actually pretty decent, and some of the underground bits are rather unpleasantly claustrophobic (though I am an easy mark for that kind of stuff, since I seem to have actually developed a mild case of claustrophobia), but it's still mostly quite dull, and bleak to the point of self-parody.

But the enchanting courting of President Woodrow Wilson wins Edith over and she becomes the First Lady of the United States.

concept sketch for Comfortable Ninja House - Bolles und Wilson - 1988
“Peter Wilson, placed his entry, the Ninja House, on the outer edge of the interchange that encircles the Tower of Winds, but turned his building away from Ito’s. For Wilson, comfort in the metropolis exists in ‘electronic shadows’, moments of psychological and physical privacy from the flow of information:
‘The subject of the project is the physicality of architecture and the ephemerality of the contemporary city; the evaporation of distance and matter through electronic technology.’86 A defensive exterior ensures that no electronic communication enters or leaves the Ninja House.”
immaterial architecture, J. Hill

Police in Louisville have released bodycam footage showing the dramatic rescue of a woman who was found chained to the floor of a house after neighbors heard her screams for help.
Footage from officer-worn bodycams on Aug. 16 shows two officers circling the two-story house in the 1700 block of Bolling Avenue to find a way inside. The officers, however, quickly learned that all doors and windows on the first floor were completely barricaded, Louisville Metro Police Department said.
Neighbors lent the officers a ladder, which they used to climb to a window on the second floor that had been shattered.
Officers climbed inside, where they discovered a disturbing scene.
The woman who had been crying for help had a chain wrapped around her neck and secured with a padlock. The other end of the chain was bolted to the floor, police said.
Officers found a hatchet in the room and could be seen on video chopping the end of the chain bolted to the floor. After freeing the woman, the officers safely brought her outside the home, where firefighters used bolt cutters to remove the chain from around the woman’s neck.
Police said a suspect was arrested in connection with the case two days after the woman’s rescue.
The suspect, identified as 36-year-old Moises May, was charged with kidnapping, two counts of assault, and terroristic threatening, according to WDRB. He was also charged with intimidating a participant in the legal process, wanton endangerment and harassment.
The victim, Joanna Wilson, spoke to the station about the ordeal, alleging that May, her estranged boyfriend and father of her child, had made her strip her clothes off, used a machete to cut her hair and threatened to kill her.
"He made me strip naked, he put the chain around my neck. He called his friend and said, 'I've got to take this equipment back to Lowe's. When I come back, I'm going to kill you,'" Wilson told the outlet. "I only had a few minutes to get out."
Wilson said she was chained up in the house for about five hours before police arrived. She said she used to share the home with May.
She told the station that her child is staying with family.

Women's History Month: Historical Fiction Recommendations
Celebrate Women's History Month by checking out these historical fiction picks!
The Mitford Affair by Marie Benedict
Between the World Wars, the six Mitford sisters dominate the English political, literary, and social scenes. Though they've weathered scandals before, the family falls into disarray when Diana divorces her husband to marry a fascist leader and Unity follows her sister's lead, inciting rumors that she's become Hitler's own mistress. Novelist Nancy Mitford is the only member of her family to keep in touch with Diana and Unity after their desertion, so it falls to her to act when her sisters become spies for the Nazi party. 
Clytemnestra by Costanza Casati
You were born to a king, but you marry a tyrant. You stand by helplessly as he sacrifices your child to placate the gods. You watch him wage war on a foreign shore, and you comfort yourself with violent thoughts of your own. This was not the life you ever deserved. And this will not be your undoing. Slowly, you plot. For you understood something long ago that the others never did. If power isn't given to you, you have to take it for yourself.
Song of a Captive Bird by Jasmin Darznik
All through her childhood in Tehran, Forugh is told that Iranian daughters should be quiet and modest. She is taught only to obey, but she always finds ways to rebel. It’s during the summer of 1950 that Forugh’s passion for poetry really takes flight - and that tradition seeks to clip her wings. Forced into a suffocating marriage, Forugh runs away and falls into an affair that fuels her desire to write and to achieve freedom and independence. Forugh’s poems are considered both scandalous and brilliant, and the power of her writing only grows stronger amid the upheaval of the Iranian revolution. 
The President's Wife by Tracey Enerson Wood
Socialite Edith Bolling has been in no hurry to find a new husband since she was widowed, preferring to fill her days with good friends and travel. But the enchanting courting of President Woodrow Wilson wins Edith over and she becomes the First Lady of the United States. While uncomfortable for the fiercely independent Edith, she soon warms to the new role and is soon indispensable to her husband's presidency. When Woodrow's delicate health takes a dramatic turn for the worse, she all but assumes the presidency herself in order to preserve both his progress and his reputation.

Edith Wilson (née Bolling, formerly Galt; October 15, 1872 – December 28, 1961) was the first lady of the United States from 1915 to 1921 and the second wife of President Woodrow Wilson. She married the widower Wilson in December 1915, during his first term as president. Edith Wilson played an influential role in President Wilson's administration following the severe stroke he suffered in October 1919. For the remainder of her husband's presidency, she managed the office of the president, a role she later described as a "stewardship," and determined which communications and matters of state were important enough to bring to the attention of the bedridden president.
