NutriBullet Review: My NutriBullet Leaks Too!
I ordered the Nutribullet on line. I did not receive the large recipe book. I just received the recipe book that looks like a pamphlet. The recipes are WAY TOO BIG for the large cup not to mention the smaller cups. I even tried cutting the recipes in half and they still came above the maximum line. My NutriBullet has leaked right from the start. What a mess! Years ago I learned a trick from a friend who has raised his boat a couple times from the bottom of the Chesapeake Bay. He has rinsed the salt water off all his electronics (like his TV) with a hose, let them air dry before using them again and then they would work.
After my NutriBullet leaked, I assumed it was my fault and I was afraid the sticky juices would ruin the motor so while holding my NutriBullet over the sink, I poured a glass of filtered water in it until it ran clear from the bottom and then set it on paper towels to air dry. I did this for a couple of days and realized that no matter how little I put into the large cup it still leaked. My husband said I didn't tighten it enough. (You know, "Operator Error".) I was only able to tighten it enough once where it didn't leak. My husband did it twice. I decided to give the system to my daughter who is stronger than I am and told her what to do if it leaked. Now from reading all the complaints about the unit leaking, I see that it wasn't "Operator Error". Not that I am glad about that because the IDEA of the machine is great. Sounds to me that they need to create a machine that will not only do what it claims to do but needs to last 25 years and they also need to get some customer service AND get their recipes correct.
My daughter said she liked the idea of not having to throw out all the fiber because not only should you use the whole fruit as **** intended but it is saving money because of the lack of waste. BUT she also said that you have to chew it as you drink it which means it isn't liqufying the ingredients as it was supposed to. So according to all the complaints I have read, I guess she won't be using it for long.
I am currently using my Vitamix. I'll have to check our credit card statements to make sure they aren't charging more than they are supposed to like some of you have written. I won't even bother trying to get a refund because I don't want the headaches the rest of you have had with the customer service. At my age, you realize that life is too short.

"This Sonoma rental was much more than we expected. I definitely give this property 5 stars. Our family met here for my daughter's 30th birthday. We stayed 4 nights. The house was beautiful with a private backyard including a fire pit, small creek and deer. The rooms were spacious and clean. Chantel, the owner, was wonderful. Everything was provided including a lovely basket with goodies and a bottle of wine. I would recommend this rental and will stay here again if we return to Sonoma."Guest: Pam B.

"Our family enjoyed every minute at Villa Serena! The home is extremely well appointed and while my husband and I enjoyed the view, our daughters enjoyed the pool. The view is spectacular any time of the day and reminded us of Tuscany. The sweeping patio was the perfect place for breakfast and morning coffee and it even inspired me to host our final dinner at sunset - best dinner ever! The home was clean, well stocked with lush towels and beddings, and very well maintained. The location of Villa Serena is perfect - it is a quick drive from The Plaza and easily accessible to all wine country routes. Thank you, Jo, for being a pleasure to work with leading up to our stay and for your gracious hospitality. We can't wait for our return visit!"Guest: Anna Diaz T.

"Charming is the best word to describe this cottage. I couldn't have been more pleased upon arrival. The place is set in it's own private area from the main house, was as clean as can be, and a great amount of space for two. We took advantage of the bikes that are available to guests - a great mode of transportation for this adorable town. Even though we didn't see Linda because of the privacy she's created for the cottage guests, she was very easy to work with and always quick to respond. I would HIGHLY suggest this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat, with easy access into town (and nearby wineries!), a cozy feel, and an overall wonderful experience. I can't say enough positives about our stay! Thank you for hosting us, Linda. See you next time ;)"Guest: Rylee C. Date of Stay: September 2015 Review Submitted: October 1, 2015View listing

Two Olympiades ago, Markus was doing sick Alley Oops in the final of the pipe event in Torino. Today, Markus is definately more focus on filming, and his latest release CHAMÄLEON is a perfect example. But Markus is not done with contests, as a proof he was recently riding the Laax pipe at the BEO, once again with much style, and a statement: not spinning more than 720s. Time to ask him some questions…
I do it my way and show the youngsters and spectators that there's more to do with a pipe than back to back 1080's.
First of all, congrats for your sick display at BEO, we enjoyed the riding and the point you made there, especially in these 'Sochi times'. But first let's get it straight: how did you get the motivation to go back to some competitions this winter after a year on Chamäleon?
I didn't plan to do competitions again. As I didn't enter a contest in 3 years i also didn't ride a lot of halfpipe except the few days filming it… It was more a mix of the lack of snow and not many options to shoot stuff, other obligations/kids camps i was doing near by anyway and good friends and locals talking me into it. Plus the Burton European Open in Laax was always one of my favorite events in one of my favorite halfpipes!
Is pipe still one of your favorite things to do?
I still like to ride pipe a lot. Especially as I didn't get to ride it a lot lately and it's a good way to get ready and warmed up for the season. A good shaped pipe with the right snow conditions is still one of my favorites things after good pow and backcountry…
You went to the final stating that you wouldn't rotate more than 7. Was that a way to show the youngsters there's a life after dub corks?
When I started considering my inscription for the BEO I decided to do it on condition that I do it my way and show the youngsters and spectators that there's more to do with a pipe than back to back 1080's. And I liked the challenge to do as good as possible with only low to no rotations…Markus' signature Air to Fakie in LAAX, BEO 2014. © Sami Tuoriniemi
Would you wish some competition set a rule of style, or maximum spin?
I'm not a fan of rules. but some new judging systems do not help much that riders keep at least one straight air, a standard manoeuver or other creativity in their runs. you can't blame the riders too much as they do what's needed to satisfy the judges and win a contest.
I don't enjoy watching contest too much anymore. For me, it's not really freestyle anymore if riders practice and show the same run over 3 seasons and more…
You were in the Torino final in 2006. But did watch the Sochi action at all? How do you see the whole pipe competition scene today?
I sure watched it, props to Iouri! But in general I don't enjoy watching contest too much anymore. For me, it's not really freestyle anymore if riders practice and show the same run over 3 seasons and more… You can already tell before each event what's gonna happen and then there are also 9 out of 10 runs which are pretty much the same. We really need some refreshment for the sport in that concern!Markus, BEO 2014. © Sami Tuoriniemi

"We used our stay for a family reunion with about 17 adults and 2 kids. Sleeping wise it was generally large enough but a little cramped because not everybody was couples sharing beds. The house and grounds are beautiful, well kept, and large enough to host everybody. The pool was a lot of fun during the day. We also hired a local chef (Danny), who I can provide information for, who was incredible and made our vacation so much more relaxing...and cheaper/easier than restaurants for 20. The house is about 20 minutes from the airport and 30 from SoBe. An Uber XL was about $35 each way to nightlife. Although there is closer nightlife in Coconut Grove if you don't want to travel.

Gigabyte 8INXP E7205 Motherboard Review
The Intel Pentium 4 platform is evolving much faster than any previous platform. Never before have we seen an Intel product under go so many changes. The Intel Pentium 3 went through a few changes but not to the extent we have seen with the Intel Pentium 4.
Intel Pentium 4 has changed sockets, die sizes and chipsets all in one year. We have seen the 423 socket replaced with the 478. Intel I850, I850E, I845, I845D, I845E, I845G, I845PE and I845GE all come for the Intel Pentium 4, and that is just the Intel side, SiS have released the 645, 645DX, 650, 652 and now the 648 and R658 chipsets. VIA has put out the P4X266, P4X266A, P4X266E and now P4X400.This is a huge amount for just one single CPU.
Intel just recently released a new chipset for Intel Pentium 4. Originally designed for light server operations and workstation usages, this chipset has been adopted already as being the next big overclockers and enthusiast level chipset. The Intel E7205 or Granite Bay chipset is designed for entry level workstations with high memory consumption tasks in mind. Designed to replicate the RDRAM's 4.2GB/s bandwidth without the extremely high latency that RDRAM causes, Intel has used dual channel DDR for the E7205 using DDR-266 memory modules which allows 4.2GB/s with DDR SDRAM. E7205 only supports DDR-266 at this point, but with future validations, DDR-333 will most likely come into the next generation chipset.
Another feature addressed with the E7205 is AGP8x support. Intel was criticized for leaving this out of the I845PE and GE chipsets. Seems that Intel is now heading the way the market says and not their own way, after all, the market proved they will not do what Intel wants (remember the I820 and RDRAM? Who brought that stuff anyway?).
Now that we have had a bit of information on the E7205, let's have a look at the first board we have here in the TweakTown labs using this new chipset - the Gigabyte GA-8INXP.

As a consultant, developer and database administrator, I've often been asked to provide coding guidelines and tuning assistance for Java code that utilizes JDBC. Over time, I've been introduced to or developed standard coding practices that make JDBC code faster and less error-prone, and easier to read, understand and use. This article documents some of the more important "best practices" for using JDBC libraries to perform database access. As most of my clients are using Oracle database technologies, I've included several practices that are Oracle-specific.
For the purposes of this article the goals of best practices for JDBC programming are maintainability, portability and performance.
- Maintainability refers to the ease with which developers can understand, debug and modify JDBC code that they didn't write.
- Portability refers to the ease with which JDBC code can be used with multiple databases. It turns out that JDBC doesn't make database programming as platform independent as I'd like. In addition, I consider portability a noble goal even if you have no current plans to support multiple databases. Who knows how long your code will be around and what kinds of changes will have to be made to it?
- Performance refers to optimizing the speed and/or memory needed to run JDBC code.
Best Practices for JDBC Programming
The most common recommendations I make to Java programmers using JDBC are the following (discussed individually later):
- Use host variables for literals - avoid hard-coding them (Oracle specific).
- Always close statements, prepared statements and connections.
- Consolidate formation of SQL statement strings.
- Use the delegate model for database connection.
- Use Date, Time and Timestamp objects as host variables for temporal fields (avoid using strings).
- Limit use of column functions.
- Always specify a column list with an select statement (avoid "select *").
- Always specify a column list with an insert statement.
I recommend that developers use host variables in SQL statements instead of hard-coding literals in SQL strings. As a convenience, many developers embed literals in SQL statements instead. I've provided an example of embedding literals in the following code. While the performance benefits of using host variables greatly improve Oracle performance, it won't hurt performance for other database platforms that I'm aware of. Note that this example places a user ID directly in the SQL statement. (As an aside, note that this example uses the "+" operator for string concatenation. While this is convenient, using StringBuffers and the StringBuffer.append() method is a faster way to concatenate strings.)
Statement stmt;
ResultSet rst;
Connection dbconnection;
stmt = dbconnection.createStatement();
rst = stmt.executeQuery("select count(*) from portfolio_info where
USER_ID = " + userID);
count = rst.getInt(1);
To get the benefit of Oracle's optimizations, we need to use PreparedStatements instead of statements for SQL that will be executed multiple times. Furthermore, we need to use host variables instead of literals for literals that will change between executions. In the code above the SQL statement for User id 1 will be different than for User Id 2 ("where USER_ID = 1" is different from "where USER_ID = 2"). A better way to approach this SQL statement is the following:
ResultSet rst;
PreparedStatement pstmt;
Connection dbconnection;
pstmt = dbconnection.prepareStatement("select count(*) from portfolio_info where USER_ID = ? "); pstmt.setDouble(1,userID);
rst = pstmt.executeQuery();
count = rst.getInt(1);
In this code, because we're using host variables instead of literals, the SQL statement is identical no matter what the qualifying user ID is. Furthermore, we used a PreparedStatement instead of a statement. So that we can better understand the source of the performance benefit, let's walk through how SQL statements are processed by the Oracle optimizer. When SQL statements are executed, Oracle will execute (roughly speaking) the following steps:
- Look up the statement in the shared pool to see if it has already been parsed or interpreted. If yes, Oracle will go directly to step 4.
- Parse (or interpret) the statement.
- Figure out how it will get the data you want; record that information in a portion of memory called the shared pool.
- Get your data.
When an Oracle user looks up a SQL statement to see if it's already been executed (step 1), he or she attempts a character-by-character match of the SQL statement. If the user finds a match, he or she can use the parse information already in the shared pool and doesn't have to do steps 2 and 3 above because the work has already been done. If you hard-code literals in your SQL statements, the probability of finding a match is very low ("where USER_ID = 1" isn't the same as "where USER_ID = 2"). This means that Oracle will have to reparse the second code example for each portfolio selected. Had the code used host variables, that statement (which would look something like "where USER_ID = :1" in the shared pool) would have been parsed once and only once.
I've experienced anywhere from a 5% to a 25% performance increase by writing SQL statements that are reusable (results vary with transaction volume, number of users, network latency and many other things). More information on this can be found in the Oracle Tuning manual. Within this manual look at the "Writing Identical SQL Statements" subheading within the "Tuning the Shared Pool" section.
While this best practice is Oracle-specific, many database platforms optimize preparing and reusing similar SQL statements. Most database platforms do this by optimizing reuse of PreparedStatement objects. Some databases, such as Cloudscape, optionally will store prepared statements in the database so they can be reused and shared by many users. Following this practice won't hurt performance with any database platform I'm aware of.
Always Close Statements, Prepared Statements and Connections
Many databases allocate resources to servicing statements, prepared statements and connections. Many database platforms continue to allocate those resources for a period of time if these objects aren't closed after use. With Oracle databases it's possible to get a "max cursors exceeded" error message when you don't close statements or prepared statements. In addition, with Oracle databases, the connections stay around on the server. This practice improves time and resources spent on maintenance to keep errors from happening.
An example can be found in Listing 1. Note that I use a "finally" block to close the PreparedStatement. I don't close the connection in the example method as it is used elsewhere in the application. Note also that I call a utility to close the PreparedStatement for me. The code for this utility can be found in Listing 2. I use a utility to do the close so I don't have to replicate the exception-catching code everywhere.
Consolidate Formation of SQL Statement Strings
As a database administrator, a substantial portion of my time is spent reading the code of others and suggesting ways to improve performance. As you might expect, looking at the SQL statements being issued is of particular interest to me. It's hard to follow SQL statements that are constructed by string manipulation scattered over several methods. Developers who maintain this kind of code must have the same problem. It greatly enhances readability if you consolidate the logic that forms the SQL statement in one place.
Listing 2 is a good example of this point. The string manipulation to form the SQL statement is located in one place, and the SQL statement logic is in a separate static block instead of within the method itself. This is done to reduce the number of times this string concatenation happens. Also note that StringBuffers are used for the string manipulation, not Strings. StringBuffers are more efficient at string concatenation than Strings are. In a project I recently completed the development team adopted this convention of consolidating SQL statements in static blocks directly above the method in which they were used. We found this practice quite readable and maintainable.
Use Delegate Model for Database Connection
I recently had the task of making the same application runnable on Oracle 8i, Cloudscape and Oracle Lite with as few modifications to existing code as possible. The development team wanted to avoid making JDBC-related classes platform-aware. In addition, the team wanted to take advantage of some platform-specific features, such as array processing and write batching in Oracle 8i, in special cases.
I was able to port the application to multiple environments largely through manipulation of one class responsible for managing our database connection. We had the foresight to create a delegate class for the java.sql.connection that manages needed connection functions and allows us to take advantage of platform-specific performance-tuning enhancements. All of our code used the delegate, not a native JDBC connection, as illustrated in Figure 2. While the specific class used for the project is proprietary, I've created another delegate, dvt.util.db.Connection, that illustrates the concept for the purposes of this article. The source for this delegate can be found in Listing 3.
Note that dvt.util.db.Connection determines that the database platform is being used. If the platform is Oracle 8i, I establish array processing by setting the default row prefetch size (available with Oracle database connections) to improve the performance of our "select" statements. I also establish write batching to improve performance of update, insert and delete statements.
Since I consolidate the platform-specific code in my connection object delegate, classes that use my connection delegate don't need to be platform specific. In case they do, however, developers can use getPlatform() to get information about the database platform being used. Furthermore, I can add support for additional database platforms (e.g., Cloudscape and Sybase) largely by changing this class. The connection delegate won't solve all portability issues, but it will solve a good percentage of them.
I recommend using a connection delegate even for projects that current supporting only one database platform. As we saw from recent Y2K efforts, you may find that your code is used for longer than you think, and used in other applications down the road.
Use Date, Time and Timestamp Objects as Host Variables for Temporal Fields
(Avoid Using Strings)
For convenience, I've seen many developers use strings as host variables to represent dates, times and timestamps. I think they consider Java.sql.Date, Time and Timestamp awkward. I agree with from a coding perspective. Unfortunately, using strings as host variables for temporal fields can affect data access performance.
The following code snippet contains a SQL statement meant for an Oracle platform that uses a string variable to represent a DATE field. Without an understanding of how the database optimizers work, this appears to be an acceptable coding technique. For the small inconvenience of using a "to_char" function in the SQL statement, we avoid the Java work of converting a java.sql.Date or Timestamp into a more easily displayable data type elsewhere in the code.
Select sum(sale_price)
From order_sales
Where to_char(sale_dt,'YYYY-MM-DD') >= ?
Unfortunately, Oracle and most database optimizers can't use an index to speed up performance of the query in this snippet. Developers will have to read all rows of the order_sales table and convert the sale_dt of all rows to a string before they can do the comparison to see which rows satisfy the where clause of the query.
If we rewrite the query in the snippet to use a java.sql.Timestamp hostvariable, Oracle (and most of the common database platforms) will use an index and significantly improve performance in most cases, as follows:
Select sum(sale_price)
From order_sales
Where sale_dt >= ?
For applications that use Oracle exclusively, I recommend using java.sql.Timestamp exclusively. Oracle's DATE data type actually contains time information (hours, minutes, seconds) as well as date information. Most other database platforms would call this type of field a TIMESTAMP. Oracle has no direct counterpart for a DATE (which has year, month and day only) and TIME data type offered by other platforms.
Limit Use of Column Functions
I generally recommend that developers limit use of column functions to the select lists of select statements. Moreover, I tend to stick to aggregate functions (e.g., count, sum, average) needed for select statements that use a "group by" clause. I make this recommendation for two reasons: performance and portability. Limiting function use to select lists (and keeping it out of where clauses) means that the use of a function won't block the use of an index. In the same way that the use of the "to_char" function prohibited the database from using an index in the earlier code snippet, column functions in where clauses likely prohibit the database from using an index.
In addition, many of the operations for which developers use SQL column functions (data type conversion, value formatting, etc.) are faster in Java than if the database did them. I've had between a 5% and a 20% performance improvement in many applications by opting to avoid some column functions and implementing the logic in Java instead. Another way to look at it is that column functions aren't tunable as we don't control the source code. Implementing that logic in Java makes it code that we can tune if need be.
Moreover, using non-ANSIstandard column functions can also cause portability problems. There are large differences in which column functions are implemented by the database vendors. For instance, one of my favorite Oracle column functions, "decode", which allows you to translate one set of values into another, isn't implemented in many of the other major database platforms. In general, column function use such as the use of "decode" has the potential to become a portability issue.
Always Specify a Column List with a Select Statement (Avoid "Select *")
A common shortcut for developers is to use the "*" in select statements to avoid having to type out a column list. The line below illustrates this shortcut while the snippet immediate following illustrates the alternative where desired columns are explicitly listed.
Select * from customer
Select last_nm, first_nm, address, city, state, customer_nbr from customer
Select last_nm, first_nm, address, city, state, customer_nbr from customer
I recommend that developers explicitly list columns in select statements as illustrated above. The reason is that if the columns in any of the tables in the select are reordered or new columns are added, the results obtained with the select-asterisk shortcut will change and the class will have to be modified. For example, suppose a database administrator changes the order of the columns and puts column customer_nbr first (there are valid reasons why a DBA could reorder columns). In addition, suppose the DBA adds a column called country. The developer who used the shortcut select * from customer will have to change code. All the offset references used in processing the Resultset will change. The developer who explicitly listed all columns can be oblivious to the change because the code will still work.
Explicitly listing columns in a select statement is a best practice because it prevents the need for maintenance in some cases.
Always Specify a Column List with an Insert Statement
A common shortcut for developers is to omit the column list in insert statements to avoid having to type out a column list. By default, the column order is the same as physically defined in the table. The first snippet below illustrates this shortcut while the next one illustrates the alternative where desired columns are explicitly listed.
Insert into customer
Insert into customer
Values ('Ashmore','Derek','3023 N. Clark','Chicago','IL', 555555)
(last_nm, first_nm, address, city, state, customer_nbr)
Values (?,?,?,?,?,?)
Insert into customer
I recommend that developers explicitly list columns in insert statements as illustrated in the second snippet above. The reason is the same as why we should explicitly list columns in select statements. If the columns in any of the tables in the select are reordered or new columns are added, the insert could generate an exception and insert in class will have to be modified. For example, suppose a DBA, as in the previous example, changes the order of the columns, puts column customer_nbr first and adds a column called country. The developer who used the first shortcut above will have to change code. The developer who explicitly listed all columns may be oblivious to the change because the code may still work. In addition, note that the version in second snippet above uses host variables so the same PreparedStatement can be used for all inserts if there are multiple inserts.
Explicitly listing columns in an insert statement is a best practice because it prevents the need for maintenance in many cases.
Recommendations for Stored Procedure Usage
Stored procedure programming languages (such as Oracle's PL/SQL) are handy and in many cases very convenient. I use them often for utility scripts and data-cleansing activities. I'm often asked about recommendations for stored procedure use in applications, but as their capabilities differ greatly among the major database platforms, I can't give platform-independent advice on the subject. I can, however, provide some thoughts on stored procedure use as it relates to portability and performance.
As these languages differ so greatly, their use within applications causes portability issues. For instance, some stored procedure languages allow procedures to return result sets, some do not. Some stored procedure languages allow temporary tables (usable within the current session only), some do not. We could find many more differences, but I think the point is clear. If portability is a concern, I recommend avoiding use of stored procedures except for database triggers.
Performance is a tougher issue because it differs radically between database vendors. Stored procedure use for some database platforms enhances performance; in others it degrades it. For Oracle platforms I advocate stored procedures within Java applications for database triggers only. For most other situations their use provides no benefit. If you want a more detailed discussion on when and how to use stored procedures, functions and packages within Oracle databases, see my article in JDJ December 1999 (Vol. 4, issue 12).
This article has discussed several ways to make JDBC code more performance-, maintenance- and portability-friendly on an individual basis. I always recommend team code reviews and documented coding standards as ways to develop more best practices and consistently apply existing practices. Furthermore, team code reviews help further the goals of best practices by improving the maintainability and general quality of code within an application.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
Saudi, Iran and the 'war' over the Hajj stampede
Azad Essa | 09 Dec 2012 14:27 GMT
Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo - Renewed fighting across the country's eastern regions during the past eight months has disrupted and destroyed the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The UN says that some 465,000 people have been displaced as Congolese forces (FARDC) battled the M23 rebel advance towards Goma.
The crisis reached a peak when Goma fell to the rebels on November 19, sending a message of intent to President Joseph Kabila's administration in Kinshasa.
After a standoff between FARDC forces and M23 that had the city in lockdown for two days, government forces left Goma as the rebels took over the administrative and security needs of the city.
But following FARDC's withdrawal from the city, the families of military members were left to deal with an occupying force all on their own.
The Katindo military camp in Goma was immediately seized and families ofFARDC soldiers were forced to flee their homes in the camp and seek refuge in schools and churches across the city.
Up to 2,000 families had lived in the military camp, the UN said.
Families of the FARDC officers and soldiers say they lost everything over the past two weeks.
"The conditions, if not addressed, will result in health problems. We need to reopen the schools, but so much has been destroyed here."
- Headteacher Kisirani Kahindo
Their homes have been looted, their properly confiscated and many are unsure over the whereabouts of their fathers, husbands, brothers and sons in the FARDC since the standoff with M23 began.
These are vulnerable civilians caught between a rebel movement and an unpopular national army: "Forgotten", as one humanitarian worker put it.
The ICRC, with the help of the Red Cross, identified at least 716 families related to the FARDC living in schools and churches across the city. While the insecurity of the past two weeks had forced schools to close, the schools had become a respite for escaping families. Thirty people were living here in classrooms, where conditions have now become squalid.
The headmaster, Kisirani Kahindo, told Al Jazeera that getting the school back to normal was going to difficult.
"The conditions if not addressed will result in health problems," the headmaster told Al Jazeera, "We need to reopen the schools but so much has been destroyed here."
School desks had been used as firewood, he said.
And while negotiations take place behind the scenes and an M23 withdrawal seems imminent, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) on Friday delivered food and basic necessities to around the hundreds of families living here in makeshift accommodation.
"These families cannot live in the schools for much longer and with food security a very serious concern in Goma at this point, these families could do with the supplies," Ottavio Sardu, economic security delegate at the ICRC, told Al Jazeera.
Families were each given food to feed up to five people for 15 days, as well as household items, including blankets, clothes and toiletries, as it still remained unclear where these families would move once schools reopen.
But if the stark conditions of families living in schools tell the tale of the civilian population in this area, it is a narrative repeated in the many camps for Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) across the country.
But it is when one visits the Katindo military camp, in the middle of Goma, that you get a sense of the scale of the crisis in the DRC.
The military camp, once home to soldiers of the national army, is a pathetic sight.
Soldiers' homes are nothing more than wooden sheds, with corrugated iron for roofs, the hard dark earth for floors and no sanitation or running water. Up to five families share a single, poorly covered "long drop" toilet facility.
Now as the M23 dismantles its operations, the camp lies silently bare and abandoned, like a military graveyard.
Dismantled army trucks, broken anti-aircraft weapons, army boots, army jackets and broken toys lie strewn across the large 802nd regiment headquarters.
Convinience stores, once the bearers of food, sweets and cool drinks, lie empty; their wooden doors set ajar, broken chairs and splintered wood the only trace of furniture left behind.
These are the conditions the Congolese army will have return to and build from.
Al Jazeera's Azad Essa reports on the forgotten civilians of Goma.
Thousands of families linked to FARDC forces were forced to flee their homes when the M23 rebel group entered the city.
Al Jazeera
Many families were left to their own devices to survive as household breadwinners had to retreat from Goma.
Beatrice Manegabe, 35, says that when officials reopen schools - now being used as makeshift shelters - she is not sure where she will sleep.
Families have been living in unhygienic conditions, in schools and churches across the city.
Poorly equipped classrooms have been transformed into poorly equipped homes.
Moise Issa, 14, says his father, a soldier with the FARDC, refused to join the M23 and subsequently went into hiding.
The ICRC, along with the Congolese Red Cross, distributed supplies to around 716 families at a Carmel Church.
Churches and schools have been crucial in hosting families in the aftermath of the violence in Goma.
The displaced could do with all the help they can get as continued insecurity has driven up food prices in the city.
Living conditions at the military camp say a lot about the state of the Congolese armed forces.
Kenive Kalombo, 14, left Katindo with his family, a day after M23 arrived in the city.
Brother and sister, Bavu and Esther, returned to the camp after retrieving what was left in their home.
A handful of M23 soldiers remained at the entrance of the camp on Friday, awaiting their instructions to withdraw.
The Congolese army\(***)s abandoned camp is ridden with the skeletons of former military beasts.
The only winners in this conflict seem to be rag pickers, who are surrounded by a
mine of abandoned equipment.
