Farmers advised to plant more saplings
by Staff ReporterK.Shanmugam, Chief Secretary to State government, inspected Kudimaramathu and various other development works in the district on Sunday.
Mr. Shanmugam, along with Gagandeep Singh Bedi, Agricultural Production Commissioner and Principal Secretary (Agriculture), S.Malarvizhi, District Collector, and other senior officials inspected the Kudimaramathu works carried out at Annasagaram Lake here. The lake was desilted at ₹70 lakh.
Mr.Shanmugam interacted with farmers and advised them and officials to plant more saplings on lake bunds to strengthen it.
He added that next year, Chief Minister Edappadi K.Palaniswami was planning to launch Kudimaramathu programme in January and February.
Mr. Shanmugam also inspected the land surveyed for SIPCOT in the district. He took part in a farmers’ interaction at Vathalmalai.
He told presspersons that steps were being taken to develop Vathalmalai into an eco-tourism spot and improve basic amenities.
Mr. Shanmugam said that facilities such as cottages, cycle track connecting villages, and an arena to conduct kite festival could improve eco-tourism in Vathalmalai.
He added that farm-based development programme had been launched in Vathalmalai and along with agriculture, the farmers would also be trained in livestock farming, and honey bee rearing which would earn them revenue throughout the year.
Mr. Shanmugam said that the scheme would be implemented for three years in Vathalmalai and based on its success here, it would be emulated in other parts of the State.


OIS pricing 34% odds of an RBNZ rate cut in February
by Omkar GodboleThe overnight index swaps are reportedly pricing nearly 34% probability that the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) will cut the interest rate at its next meeting in February 2020.
The central bank in August surprised markets by cutting rates by 50 basis points to 1% and has kept rates unchanged ever since.
The NZD/USD pair is currently trading at 0.6420, representing a 0.30% gain on the day.

Where to Stay
We have a block of 15 rooms available at the Holiday Inn Express Columbia East . The block is guaranteed until May 22, 2019, but we expect rooms to go pretty quickly. Transportation to and from the conservancy will be provided for guests staying here.
Update: The link here only shows for the night of Friday June 21st, 2019. You should be able to get the same rate calling in and asking for the "Rosenbaum Wedding" block. We're working on contacting the hotel to fix the link in the mean time.
Unfortunately there's some sort of event going on nearby, so we couldn't get a bigger block. There's plenty of hotels nearby, though, so accommodations shouldn't be a problem if you don't mind being a little spread out. Here's where we'd recommend looking:
| Hampton Inn and Suites Baltimore/ Woodlawn | The Hampton Inn and Suites Baltimore/Woodlawn is conveniently located just off the highway and isn't too far from the wedding venue. It is about a 20 minute drive to Howard County Conservancy (directions). |
|---|---|
| Sonesta ES Suites Columbia | The Sonesta ES Suites Columbia is conveniently located just off the highway and isn't too far from the wedding venue. It is about a 15 minute drive to Howard County Conservancy (directions). |
| Hilton Garden Inn Columbia | The Hilton Garden Inn Columbia is conveniently located just off the highway and isn't too far from the wedding venue. It is about a 16 minute drive to Howard County Conservancy (directions). |
| Turf Valley Resort | The Turf Valley Resort is conveniently located just off the highway and very close to the wedding venue. It is about a 10 minute drive to Howard County Conservancy (directions). |
| Airbnb | Airbnb's are available all over the place, and are sometimes significantly less expensive that the local hotels. Check them out here |
Registry
We have a registry listed online here!
We'd be equally appreciative of contributions to our honeymoon fund!

Bystanders scramble to rescue couple from wreckage after Westonaria crash
by Nicole McCainBystanders rushed to help a trapped man and woman, following a collision between their car and a large truck on the R28 in Westonaria on Friday night.
When ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene at 20:15, they found bystanders trying to help the two occupants of the car. However, the driver had already suffered multiple fatal injuries and was declared dead.
The female passenger had suffered multiple critical injuries. She was treated on scene, where the Fire Department extracted her from the vehicle, before she was airlifted to hospital by a private medical helicopter.
The driver of the truck had suffered only minor injuries and declined transport to hospital with another private service on the scene.

Github provides me with an online storage space for every project that I write. It has always proved to be reliable especially in the instance that my laptop crashes. Anyone can check on the progress of the projects Github links.
Git helps me keep track of the changes I make to my code. It is essentially the history channel for my code editor. If it happens that I hit a fatal error and don’t know the cause, I can always revert to my former stable state.
I have the ability to work with the Linux system, and especially, relish the fact that I can be able to use the command line effectively. The terminal offers a better and a mor focussed way of interacting with the computer diretory.
I do use the tools provided with HTML5, coupled with CSS3 to come up with websites that are eye catchy, relevant designs, customizable code and easy-to-navigate pages. Every work that I have done bears a touch of quality.

Photography. Emotion and Happiness
Since I found photography two and a half years ago I have learned different things which I would like to share with you today. These lessons have made me richer and I hope that you will find them refreshing and inspiring on your journey with the camera, too. 1. Never do photography to become a rock-star. 2. Enjoy what you are shooting. 3. Prepare well for your shooting, realizing that your battery isn’t charge when you’re setting up for that sunrise shoot is too late! 4. Always take one warm garment more than you actually need with you 5. Pay attention to your thoughts and emotions while you are shooting 6. Set goals you can achieve 7. Write tips about photography, because writing is also learning 8. Never go shooting without a tripod 9. Be pleased with the little successes 10. Build relationships with potential photo buddies 11.  Always stay calm 13. Know that you tend to overestimate yourself 14. Perspective is the killer 15. Dedicate yourself to photography, but never browbeat yourself too much 16. Take part in a photography community 17. Keep your camera clean 18. Never compare yourself to others in a better or worse context 19. Find your own style of photography 20. Try to compose more and to hit the shutter less 21. Seek out and learn to accept critique on your images 22. Do something different to recover creativity 23. Get inspiration from the work of other photographers 24. Criticize honestly but respectfully 25. Get feedback from your lady 26. Don’t copy other photographer’s style 27. Be bold 28. Take care of the golden ratio 29. 10mm rocks! 30. Take self portraits 31. Read books about photography 32.  Every shooting situation is different than you expect 34. Pay attention to s-curves and lines 35. Always shoot in RAW
The most difficult thing is to make photos where you live, because you start to find things normal. For my very long work about Belgium I had the advantage traveling back and forth. I realized that I often made my best photos in the beginning. After a while you start to think everything is normal
I am a photographer, but I think of photography like therapy. It’s something I need to do. If I don’t take pictures a month, I really miss it. Its relationship to the world I need…. Photography that matters most to me comes from this urgent personal need


Hello, welcome to my game! You will have 10 tries to guess the random numbers chosen.
Here are the rules: If a number doesn't match that box's number, and doesn't match any of the numbers in the sequence, the box should be red If a number matches that box's number, the box should be green If a number doesn't match that box's number, but does match one of the numbers in the sequence, the box should be yellow


Answer the following questions about these graphs:
In the first graph in Figure 5.10.4, does it look like CO2 is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same? What about the temperature anomaly?
In the second graph in Figure 5.10.4, does it look like CO2 is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same? What about the temperature anomaly?
From looking at the first graph in Figure 5.10.4, what conclusion might you draw about the relationship between CO2 levels and temperature? What about from the second graph in Figure 5.10.4?
What makes the two graphs in Figure 5.10.4 look so different, even though they show the same data?
These graphs - usually called dual axis charts are frequently used in misleading ways. Read more on your own about dual axis charts. Can they be used effectively, or do you think they are best avoided?

A song to sing along the road up to Jerusalem.
1 Yahweh, do not forget King David
and all the hardships he endured!
2 He made a solemn promise to you,
the mighty God whom our ancestor Jacob worshiped.
3 He said, "I will not go home,
I will not rest on my bed,
4 and I will not sleep at all
5 until I build a place for Yahweh,
a home for the mighty God whom Jacob worshiped."
6 In Ephrathah we heard where the sacred chest was.
So we went and found it near the city of Kiriath Jearim, and we took it to Jerusalem.
7 Later we said, "Let us go to the sacred tent of Yahweh in Jerusalem;
let us worship there in front of the throne where he is sitting."
8 Yahweh, come to the place where you live eternally,
to the place where your sacred chest is,
to the place that shows that you are very powerful.
9 I want that the righteous behavior of your priests will always be evident,
and that your people will always shout joyfully.
10 You chose David to serve you as king of Israel;
do not reject him!
11 Yahweh, you made a solemn promise to David,
a promise that you will not break.

13 Yahweh has chosen Jerusalem;
that is where he wants to rule from.
14 He said, "This is the city where I will live forever;
this is the place where I want to stay.
15 I will give to the people of Jerusalem all that they need;
I will give enough food to satisfy even the poor people there.
16 I will cause the priests to behave in a manner worthy of ones whom I have saved;
and all my people who live there will shout joyfully.
17 There in Jerusalem I will cause one of David's descendants to become a great king;
he also will be my chosen king,
It is there that I will make David's line of descendants continue.
18 I will defeat his enemies and cause them to be very ashamed;
but the crown that my king wears will always shine."


HEARTBREAKERS A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 2001 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): ***
In David Mirkin's HEARTBREAKERS, a sweet comedy which plays like a lighthearted version of THE GRIFTERS, Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt are a mother/daughter pair of con artists. Although they scam for everything from food to gas, their specialty is marriage settlements.
When we first meet our connivers, Max (Weaver) is marrying Dean Cumanno (Ray Liotta), a respectable New Jersey chop shop owner. When his new secretary, Page (Hewitt), entices him into a little oral sex, his wife of 18 hours arrives to catch them in the act. "Honey, it isn't what it looks like here," Dean tries to explain to Max. "Her hair got stuck in my zipper." Cut to the lawyers office in which Max leaves with a chunk of cash and one of Dean's freshly built Mercedes.
 The rebellious Page thinks that Max treats her like a little kid, and Max thinks that Page isn't ready to go solo like she plans. Their confidence games are quite believable. Max looks like someone who would sweep you off your feet into an early marriage proposal. And Page, with her lovely legs, micro skirts and ERIN BROCKOVICH-type bras that push her generous breasts skyward, looks like someone who might tempt even the most married of married men. In short, the deliciously caustic chemistry between Weaver and Hewitt is the best part of the movie.
The weakest link, other than the excessive running time, is the supporting cast. Although Liotta is impressive, most of the others are either underutilized or miscast. Anne Bancroft delivers a wooden performance as an IRS agent who forces the two crooks into their most ambitious scam ever. Jason Lee (ALMOST FAMOUS), who isn't given much to do as the only guy with whom Page ever falls in love, phones in his performance.
As a cliché of a rich old geezer with yellow teeth, Gene Hackman coughs his way through his part as William B. Tensy, a tobacco company CEO with millions to burn. If he will just live long enough to tie the knot with Max, she and her daughter will be able to pay their back taxes and live on easy street for the rest of their lives. But Page hates the whole idea. "I'm not dating the walking dead," she bitterly informs her mother, who replies, "we better work fast."
In Tensy's most memorable line, he reveals the secret of what really turns on a tobacco millionaire -- "smoke billowing out of a woman's hot, red nostrils." The image almost makes the unflappable, non-smoking Max gag. Gag isn't something you will do while watching this brightly written comedy.  It's the sort of picture that will leave you with a smile on your face and a feeling that you got your money's worth.
HEARTBREAKERS runs needlessly long at 2:03. It is officially rated PG-13 for sex-related content including dialogue, and with scenes of oral sex and bondage, this is certainly a film unsuitable for those under 13.

I really enjoy both watching and playing soccer (I’m the United States Women’s National Soccer Team’s biggest fan) and I play anytime I get a chance. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family, tennis, and painting when I have the time.
I’m really excited to start a career in full-stack development. I love thinking that goes into the code behind the webpage, the result achieved when everything works correctly, and most importantly, the huge rewarding feeling you get when it all comes together.


Introduction to Neural Network Verification
Deep learning has transformed the way we think of software
and what it can do.
But deep neural networks are fragile and their behaviors are often surprising.
In many settings, we need to provide formal guarantees on the safety, security, correctness, or robustness of neural networks.
This book covers foundational ideas from
formal verification and their adaptation to reasoning about
neural networks and deep learning.

Coins in this system are called “nyzo” (plural “nyzos”). The prefix for a nyzo is the mathematical intersection symbol, ∩. So, “5 nyzos” would be written as “∩5.” The smallest unit of measurement is the micronyzo. A micronyzo is 1/1,000,000 of a nyzo. The prefix for a micronyzo is the lowercase Greek letter mu, µ. So, “15 micronyzos” would be written as µ15. To avoid ambiguity and to eliminate rounding issues, all transactions are handled at the programmatic and blockchain levels in terms of micronyzos, and fractional micronyzos cannot be specified anywhere in the system.
Several “edges” are discussed in this system. The “frozen edge” is the highest block that a verifier has agreed it will never change, and the consensus mechanism is built to extend the frozen edge as quickly as possible while ensuring that no two verifiers acting in good faith ever freeze different blocks at the same level. The “trailing edge” is the lowest block that was necessary to determine the state of the frozen edge, and the “retention edge” is the lowest block for which a verifier will service normal requests. The frozen edge and trailing edge are precisely defined based on characteristics of the blockchain, while the retention edge is an arbitrary buffer behind the trailing edge that is useful in bootstrapping new verifiers.

Deploying R Markdown Online
Filed under:
R Markdown is a great tool for creating a variety of documents with R code and it’s a natural choice for producing blog posts such as this one. However, depending on which blog software you use, you may run into some problems related to the file paths for figure images (such as ggplot charts) which will require tweaks in your R Markdown workflow.
This blog post demonstrates a simple solution to this problem that will also give you central control over R Markdown knit settings across your site. I use this solution for this blog and a GitHub repository of data science resources. You can also find the R Markdown file that generated this blog post here.
Note that in this post I will be talking about implementing a solution for a Jekyll blog that is hosted via GitHub pages. Some modifications may be required if you are using another blog or website platform. However, this solution should be adaptable to all blogs or websites that use Markdown.
For Jekyll there are two steps to building web content (HTML) from an R Markdown file. The first is to knit the R Markdown (.Rmd) file which creates the Markdown (.md) file. The second step is to use the jekyll build command to create HTML content which is what will be displayed online.
1. Knit: R Markdown (.Rmd) ----> Markdown (.md) 2. Jekyll Build: Markdown (.md) ----> HTML (.html)
The Problem
When I first used R Markdown to create a post for this blog, none of my figures showed up in the post. The issue was that Jekyll creates the HTML file for a blog post in a different location than the R Markdown (.Rmd) and Markdown (.md) files and this breaks figure file paths. This blog post describes the problem in more detail.
Also, by default R Markdown stores files for figures two folder levels deep using the R Markdown file location as its root (ie. <rmarkdown-filename>_files/figure-gfm/image.png
). I find it more convenient to organize figure files in a separate root directory from my R Markdown files and store the images only one folder level deep (ie. /rmd_images/<rmarkdown-filename>/image.png
). You can see this folder structure in action here (posts are in the _posts
folder and figures are in the rmd_images
folder).
The Solution
This solution uses a single R script file (.R) which contains knit settings adjustments and is referenced by all R Markdown (.Rmd) files. This allows you to edit knit settings in one central location and use these settings whenever you knit an R Markdown file. Modifications are made to the knit process so that figure image files are saved in a well organized folder structure and the HTML files display figures properly.
The contents of this central R script which I have named rmd_config.R is below. It lives in the root directory of my Github repository and the contents of this file will be run (via source) when each R Markdown file is knit.
# get name of file during knitting and strip file extension
rmd_filename <- stringr::str_remove(knitr::current_input(), "\\.Rmd")
# Figure path on disk = base.dir + fig.path
# Figure URL online = base.url + fig.path
knitr::opts_knit$set(base.dir = stringr::str_c(here::here(), "/"), base.url = "/") # project root folder
knitr::opts_chunk$set(fig.path = stringr::str_c(file.path("rmd_images", rmd_filename), "/"))
Here is what is going on in the above script:
- The filename of our R Markdown file is extracted using
knitr::current_input()
and stored in the variablermd_filename
(str_remove
is used to remove the .Rmd file extension). - The here package establishes our ‘base’ directory (the root folder of our GitHub repository). The base directory path could change based on which computer we use and where we put our GitHub repository files so the here package allows us to automatically find this path.
- The
fig.path
, which is where our figures will be stored, is set to a folder named after the R Markdown file being run that resides in the ‘/rmd_images’ root directory.
To utilize the above script in an R Markdown file, we simply insert the code below as a chunk into the R Markdown file. This will source the script to apply all the necessary knit settings when an R Markdown file is knit.
source(here::here("rmd_config.R"))
For a Jekyll blog, you’ll also want to include certain YAML header content such as tags or the title of the post. To do this we can use the preserve_yaml
output setting in generating our .md file and then insert whatever YAML content we need into the header. Below is an example YAML header (the first part of your R Markdown document) which will generate a github-style (“gfm”) .md document. In this example I’ve added the fields “layout”, “title”, “date”, “author”, and “tags” which are all used by Jekyll in creating the blog post.
---
layout: post
title: "Deploying R Markdown Online"
date: 2020-03-22
author: Jesse Cambon
tags: [ r ]
output:
md_document:
pandoc_args: ["--wrap=none"]
variant: gfm
preserve_yaml: TRUE
---
Note that the pandoc_args
setting is to prevent the knit process from inserting extra line breaks into the Markdown file that don’t exist in our R Markdown file. The extra line breaks normally are invisible, but I found they showed up when I pushed content to R-Bloggers which caused paragraphs to be broken up.
One other note on Jekyll is that it uses the liquid template language. If you want to display characters on your blog that are used by liquid such as {{}}
(R’s “curly-curly” operator) then you will need to wrap these problematic characters with the raw
and endraw
liquid tags as described here. This prevents Jekyll from attempting to parse these characters as liquid syntax and passes them on in raw form to the HTML file for display.
Conclusion
To see this solution in action, you can look at the GitHub repository that produces this blog here and the R Markdown file for this specific blog post here. To provide a self-contained example of a figure displaying, I’ve created a simple histogram plot below and you’ll find the image file neatly filed away in the rmd_images
directory underneath a subfolder named after this blog post.
One caveat is that this approach does assume that each R Markdown filename is unique. If this is not the case then you’ll need to make some modifications to the central rmd_config.R
file above; otherwise figure images from different R Markdown files may save in the same directory (and possibly overwrite each other). However, the solution described here is quite flexible and could be adapted to a variety of use cases with tweaks to the rmd_config.R
file.

THE EXORCIST III A review in the public domain by The Phantom<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The Phantom went into THE EXORCIST III with a bad taste in his mouth, and although it may have had more to do with some strange Italian mineral water he had just drunk, he thinks that part of the reason is the general state of horror films today. Through no fault of his own, a few nights ago he was forced to watch most of last year's indescribably bad THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, and as the film plodded through scene after predictable scene of tedious violence and more close-ups of Robert Englund's latex-encased face than even his mother would appreciate, let alone enjoy, the Phantom considered the current state of the horror film.
How things had come from the suspense classics and psychological thrillers of years ago to this monstrosity, this badly plotted affront to the name "Phantom," this latex nightmare, is a mystery. Either audiences have become stupider (for there is no other adequate description of a film like Englund's PHANTOM OF THE OPERA), or filmmakers believe that audiences have become stupider, or there is simply no one left who can direct an intelligent horror film.
Consider the Phantom's most recent reviews, which span just about a year's worth of horror films:
BASKET CASE 2 BRAIN DEAD CLASS OF 1999 FLATLINERS THE FIRST POWER THE GUARDIAN HALLOWEEN 5 HENRY, PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER LEATHERFACE NIGHTBREED SHOCKER THE STEPFATHER 2: MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE
In a year's worth of horror films, how many were good enough that anyone would want to see them once, let alone again on video in years to come? HENRY, and for those phans of the Twilight Zone, BRAIN DEAD. The rest range from downright awful, to predictable, to "well, I know it sucked, but it had great special effects."
Yet as he compiled this roll call of the mediocre, it struck the Phantom that the best of the lot (HENRY and BRAIN DEAD) are both primarily psychological thrillers first and horror films second. Although some graphic violence is depicted in each, these two films achieve their effect through good direction, good plotting, good cinematography, and just plain good story telling. In years gone by, even the Roger Corman/Edgar Allen Poe quickies had some measure of intelligence to them; whether because of the severe restrictions placed on the display of graphic violence, or the infancy of film effects and makeup techniques, or because latex hadn't yet been invented, horror films had to be designed to scare their audiences through subtle manipulations rather than through overt displays of blood and gore.
Of course the Phantom realizes that there were exceptions to this rule -- more than a few low budget gore-fests were produced during the seventies -- but for the most part horror films made before the Jasonized eighties had a different look and feel to them, and the successful ones were successful because they gave us credit for having imaginations and intelligence. However good one thinks the HELLRAISER and EVIL DEAD series are, one would be hard pressed to say that these films were very thoughtful or even more than superficially clever. Alas, it seems that even in the best of the most recent horror films, phans have had to settle for style over substance and clever camera work over original plots and intelligent dialogue.
But what does any of this have to do with the subject of this review, the latest EXORCIST sequel? Just that while THE EXORCIST III isn't a classic horror film, it is certainly a cut above the vast majority of sad excuses for horror films we've seen recently. Best of all, it's a worthy successor to the original EXORCIST, and it all but erases from one's mind its mind-numbing predecessor (though the Phantom must admit that he makes a special stop for it at his local Blockbusters whenever he really needs a good laugh).
The Phantom thinks that this makes for a nice ironic contrast with William Friedkin's 1973 classic, the original EXORCIST. Though THE EXORCIST may have been a lot of things, subtle it was not. But phans must keep in mind the time in which the film was released. 1973 was very much different from 1990 as far as what an audience expected to see in a horror film; in fact, THE EXORCIST is one of the films that so changed our expectations that it spawned an entire sub-genre, the "bogus Catholic theology" genre of horror film (of which this year's THE FIRST POWER is one very unfortunate example).
THE EXORCIST worked because it pulled out all the stops, but times have changed, and the Phantom has seen dozens too many horror films that make THE EXORCIST look like a Disney production. Pea soup and gruesome special effects just don't cut it anymore, and too many recent horror films that were technically excellent still failed to satisfy because they regularly sacrificed story, character, and dialogue to the all-powerful god latex.
And so the Phantom was astonished to see that THE EXORCIST III forsakes almost entirely this false god and so succeeds in a way that few other recent horror films have.
The film is William Peter Blatty's "official" sequel to the original EXORCIST (which was based on his novel of the same name), and it too is based on one of Blatty's novels (in this case, "Legion"), but this time Blatty himself directs from a script that he himself adapted. That alone was enough to give the Phantom pause; after all, the last time a writer had directorial ambitions Clive Barker managed to waste David Cronenberg's startling performance and produce a very mediocre NIGHTBREED. Before that, Steven King imagined that MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE would satisfy those of his phans who up until that point had not been happy with the film adaptations of his novels. (The Phantom thanks heaven above that Rob Reiner, and not King, is directing the forthcoming MISERY, since it was while watching MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE the Phantom discovered what the protagonist of MISERY must have felt like; when asked if would like to see MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE again, the Phantom always responds "I'd rather be in hell with my back broken.")
But Blatty seems to have decided that in EXORCIST II: THE HERETIC he had a safety net: no matter how bad EXORCIST III turned out, it couldn't even approach the sheer awfulness of its most recent predecessor. And so he set out to make a traditional horror film, one that recalls THE OMEN or THE HAUNTING more than it does THE EXORCIST, and one that at times feels more like a play than a film.
It is a film in which people act -- actually act, not just stand around and say things like "It's probably the storm, I'm sure it's just the wind, let me take a look in the basement and make sure" -- and in which the characters speak in complete sentences. The dialogue throughout the film is intelligent, witty and interesting -- one really wants to listen to what the characters are saying, and the dialogue itself contains countless clues to the mysteries of the film's plot. And the film achieves its effects in precisely the way that made the great horror films of the past great: through the use of psychological horror rather than through acres of latex and liters of blood.
In fact, at one point in the film, the Devil, speaking through his latest instrument of death, says that he has always enjoyed Shakespeare's works. Given the structure and tone of much of the film, it's easy to see why. THE EXORCIST III is filled with what in different circumstances might be termed soliloquies. Strange for a film made in the past few years, and stranger still for a horror film. And strangest of all, although this is one of the Phantom's most hated forms of exposition (since he feels it is entirely inappropriate in a visual medium that affords the artist so much freedom), the Phantom found that he enjoyed Blatty's style -- and his script -- immensely.
The story is a simple one, and so the Phantom will have to be careful not to give too much of it away. The action takes place in the present day, 15 years after Linda Blair gave her head-turning performance, and 15 years after the Devil killed Father Karras. Phans will remember that the Devil was exorcised that day, and Blatty reveals that he's been itching for revenge ever since (the Devil, that is, though one could argue that Blatty's been itching for another success; the people who have purchased his last novel have not been, well, legion).
This is the starting point for THE EXORCIST III. George C. Scott plays a detective who was a good friend of Father Karras', and who now has the responsibility of solving a string of bizarre, ritualistic murders that at least initially seem to proceed with no real pattern. Each murder is more gruesome than the next (though phans of bogus Catholic theology films will be glad to know that none tops the acme of these deaths: the priest in THE FINAL CONFLICT (the third OMEN film) who was strung up, wrapped in plastic, and then set on fire as he swung suspended over a television studio), and in time Scott comes to realize that he is dealing with something that is decidedly unnatural. He is plagued by dreams -- first of Father Karras' death as he tumbled down those sinister looking stairs, then by visions of heaven in which the dead and soon to be dead mingle with angels playing big band music and with assorted NBA all-stars (no, the Phantom is not making this up, but it *is* just a dream, you know), and finally he discovers the link between what happened 15 years ago, a series of murders by someone known as "the Gemini killer" that had been solved at about that time, and the murders that are occurring all around him with astonishing regularity. What that link is the Phantom will never divulge, but he warns phans not to get their hopes up; Blatty may be able to make the Devil believable, but John Le Carre he is not.
If the Phantom has made this film sound like another FIRST POWER, or perhaps another PRINCE OF DARKNESS, then he's done it a grave injustice; perhaps it's because so much of what is enjoyable about THE EXORCIST III has nothing to do with its rather shopworn plot.  Although Blatty could have turned this into another special effects extravaganza, he directs with a remarkably literate and restrained style. The murders all take place off camera, and yet because the characters describe them, they turn out to be even more effective than the most heavy-handed slash and trash scene. Instead of seeing decapitations and disembowelments, we hear about them -- something truly unique in these very illiterate, yet overly literal, days. It is psychological horror at its very best: we are scared not because of what we see, but because of what we hear and imagine.
And still more remarkably, the film has a very low SLC Quotient [from the Phantom's Dictionary of Horror Film Reviewing Terms: "Spring-Loaded Cat Quotient," so named in honor of the technique Ridley Scott used to scare his audience in ALIEN]. The film has a spare feeling, and most scenes have just two or three people in them; in fact, the film's most effective scenes are staged in a cell in which Scott listens to the Gemini killer discuss his work. Not since HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER has a director attempted to get his audience inside the head of a psychopath, and while John McNaughton was far more successful in his excellent HENRY, Blatty, utilizing some rather eccentric and compelling monologues, comes close.
There are no profound surprises to be found in Blatty's plot, and for a film that starts out with a rather interesting premise, THE EXORCIST III ends in a very conventional way. In fact, the Phantom has heard rumors that the original version of the film did not end with an exorcism as the current version does, and that the ending was mandated by nervous studio executives who didn't feel comfortable releasing a film called THE EXORCIST III if it didn't contain at least one exorcism. These same meddlers might then also be responsible for the film's only scenes of blood and gore, scenes which seem remarkably out of place given the tone of preceding 90 minutes. The Phantom has not read "Legion," so he doesn't know whether or not an exorcism was featured in Blatty's original conception of the story. But the film's ending is both disappointing and jarring -- worse than being simply a bad ending, it seems entirely inappropriate.
But that is but a small quibble. For the most part, Blatty deserves nothing but praise for attempting to raise the genre from the black depths into which Jason, Michael and Freddy have cast it. Simply put, THE EXORCIST III is a very enjoyable, very compelling, and very successful horror film. See it, phans; it's even worth $7.50.

MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING A film review by Alex Fung Copyright 1997 Alex Fung
(TriStar - 1997) Starring Julia Roberts, Dermont Mulroney, Cameron Diaz, Rupert Everett Screenplay by Ronald Bass Produced by Jerry Zucker, Ronald Bass Directed by P.J. Hogan Running time: 105 minutes
***1/2 (out of four stars)
Note: Some may consider portions of the following text to be spoilers. Be forewarned.
The teaser trailers for MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING scarsely gave reason for hope - it looked like the sort of goofy, light-hearted comedy than might put Julia Roberts back in the limelight, but little more; I'd frankly rarely seen a trailer place such an emphasis on people falling over for laughs so often. It was then to both my surprise and my delight to find that MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING was such a success - a strong, bouyant romantic-comedy with some decidedly unconventionally quirky comic aspects, featuring a triumphant performance from Ms. Roberts.
The heroine of MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING is Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts), a successful New York restaurant critic, and we open the film with a whimsical revelation to her editor George Downes (Rupert Everett) that years ago, she had made a pact with her dear best friend and ex-lover Michael O'Neal (Dermot Mulroney), a sports writer, that if they both hadn't married by the time they reached 28, they had promised to marry each other. Both Julianne and Michael are both single, of course, and when George inquires about Michael's age, Julianne realizes that he's mere weeks away from his 28th birthday, and is quite distressed when she receives a phone call from Michael later that day. However, she finds herself even more distraught when Michael's call is in regards to his impending marriage to heiress Kimmy Wallace (Cameron Diaz), and when he asks Julianne to fly down to Chicago for the wedding, Julianne suddenly realizes that she loves Michael, and resolves to break up the wedding and steal the groom by any means necessary.
The setup for MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, then, is a fairly conventional one, and in many ways the film's storyline is formulaic - but only to a certain extent: the film was directed by P.J. Hogan, whose first feature, MURIEL'S WEDDING, had quite an offbeat tone for a traditional uplifting ugly-duckling story, and the same holds true for MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, which confidently combines traditional romantic-comedy elements with a really eccentric sense of humour. The film is innundated with sly mischievousness which seems clearly the influence of Mr. Hogan. For example, there's a heartfelt, emotional exchange between Julianne and Michael late in the film - with a trio of teenagers, inhaling helium and sounding every bit like Alvin and the Chipmunks, harmonizing in the background. MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING opens with an inspired opening credit sequence which sets the tone for the film, and there are scenes where actors spontaneously burst into song to good comic effect - it could almost be argued that this film is nearly as much of a musical as Woody Allen's EVERYONE SAYS I LOVE YOU; I'd even assert it's a more successful one.
MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING keeps breaking conventionality with its characters as well. In a typical romantic-comedy, Kimmy would be portrayed as a snooty, conniving ice queen, and the audience would be cheering for Julianne to rescue Michael from her grasps; this film is smarter than that - here, Kimmy is sweet, sincere, and innocent; Julianne even admits at one point that had she not resolved to utterly destroy Kimmy's life, she'd actually like her too. The George character is almost a staple of recent film - the homosexual male friend of the heroine who acts as a confidant and provides the guiding voice of reason - but in MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, he gets to have a playful, mischievous and charming personality. Throughout the film, the formulaisms one often sees is romantic-comedy are given little twists, and the result is a film which is compelling all the way to its somewhat unorthodox conclusion. There is a lot of smart writing in the well-paced screenplay by Ronald Bass; we're given four interesting, vivid, and likeable characters, with some good dialogue and some genuinely charming and touching moments.
MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING marks a strong career rebound for Julia Roberts, who turns in a top-notch, confident and reassured performance as Julianne. This isn't the sort of role one usually associates with Ms. Roberts - the Julianne character's neurotic, fumbling characteristics are more in line with a Meg Ryan role - but Ms. Roberts works wonderfully in the film and demonstrates her aptitude at comedy here, remaining compelling and empathetic to the audience, if not entirely sympathetic, even when her deeds done to destroy the wedding plans of her best friend are less than honourable.
Even better than Ms. Roberts though is Cameron Diaz, who turns in a shining performance in MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDDING. With a smile which lights up the screen, she effectively conveys Kimmy's insecurity and utter sweetness in an endearing manner, and never hits a false note in the film. She even sings - I won't soon forget her charming serenade of "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself".
Rupert Everett is given a very juicy role as George, and he makes the most of it with a hilarious turn which makes his character perhaps the most vivid and most memorable in the film. His George is a bit of a devilish rogue, entirely affable, and Mr. Everett's performance is a delight to watch; he's clearly having fun, and his joy is infectuous.
Dermot Mulroney is adequate in a thankless role - unlike the other characters in the film, he's not given a lot to do, but there is a genuine onscreen chemistry between Ms. Roberts and Mr. Mulroney, and consequently the longstanding friendship between his Michael character and the Julianne character always seemed completely authentic.
When Julia Roberts' lustre began to fade, and she was usurped from her title as "America's Sweetheart" by Sandra Bullock, I thought it was a canny career move on her part to take supporting roles in prestige projects like MICHAEL COLLINS and EVERYONE SAYS I LOVE YOU to raise her profile. While that didn't quite work out, it's near-certain that her successful return to the genre which made her a big star back in 1990, the romantic-comedy, will once again raise her ante in the Hollywood game. MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING marks a return to form for Ms. Roberts, and cements P.J. Hogan's reputation as a skilled director of comedy.
