South Carolina Republican officials don't like a ruling made by U.S. District Judge Michelle Childs allowing open voting in primaries, the system that's used in the state now and has been for decades. Under that plan, voters can choose which party's primary they want to participate in from year to year. But lawyers for the GOP are asking Childs to examine whether that might be unconstitutional. Childs, in her earlier ruling, had said that if Republicans want to exclude people from their process, they could choose a new method such as conventions or petitions.

Regarding your editorial in the Nov. 14 C-I regarding "Pit Bulls," I was disappointed that you chose to use the two recent incidents in Kershaw County as an opportunity to condemn a particular breed of dog, instead of focusing attention on the actual problem, which is the lack of responsible pet ownership. This would have been an appropriate time to support the passage and vigorous enforcement of laws that focus, not on breed, but on people's responsibility for their dogs' behavior. These include measures that hold owners of all dogs accountable for properly housing, supervising and controlling their dogs ...

Criminals Fighting Crime? Atlanta Police Grads Have Records
Over one-third of police academy graduates in Atlanta, Georgia have a criminal record. The eye-opening number of newly minted law enforcers have either been arrested or cited for crimes ranging from shoplifting to assault.
Just like the US Army, the Atlanta PD has to make some concession if it wants to meet its recruitment goals. The city has had a tough time filling the ranks for the admirable, but tough job of a police officer.
Considering a recent survey found that the average person breaks the law at least once a day, perhaps it's impossible to find perfectly innocent police officers. Still, disobeying traffic lights or talking on a cell phone while driving won't necessarily get you a criminal record. When police officers have a rap sheet is it a sign that our laws cast too wide a net, or that the city needs to revamp its recruitment efforts?

CMOS wireless transceivers: the new wavePage(s): 119 - 124| | Quick Abstract | PDF (572 KB)
A new generation of wireless transceivers is being intergrated into CMOS IC technology, which so far has been used mainly to realize digital and mixed analog-digital baseband circuits. This article reviews some of the RF CMOS circuit design techniques, and shows how an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of these circuits influences choice of radio architecture. The CMOS approach to radio design calls for the elimination of discrete components in favor of high levels of on-chip integration which freely use translators and mix analog and digital functionality; in these respects, it departs from traditional RF circuit practices. Successful wireless devices of the future will require that radio system design evolve around these new trends in RF integration View full abstract»
Configurable logic for digital communications: some signal processing perspectivesPage(s): 107 - 111| | Quick Abstract | PDF (520 KB)
For the past two decades software programmable digital signal processors and ASICs have provided hardware solutions for signal processing system designers. A new option has become available: field programmable gate arrays. FPGA-based DSP platforms allow the designer to realize a data path that exactly matches the required processing, while at the same time maintaining the flexibility of a software approach. This article presents an overview of some FPGA DSP applications. Several filter designs are presented, and the use of CORDIC arithmetic for constructing an FPGA carrier recovery loop is outlined. In addition to presenting design examples that can be realized using present-generation devices and tools, we take a brief look at how the dynamic reconfiguration aspect of certain FPGAs could be exploited in future-generation communication technologies View full abstract»
Survivability in a new pan-European carriers' carrier network based on WDM and SDH technology: current implementation and future requirementsPage(s): 63 - 69| | Quick Abstract | PDF (596 KB)
A pan-European carriers' carrier network, like other carrier networks, must cope with the enormous traffic inflation by introducing appropriate network solutions. WDM technology is the solution adopted by GTS Carrier Services' Trans European Network unit (TEN, formerly known as Hermes Europe Railtel), driven by bandwidth requirements, infrastructure limitations, flexibility, and cost. The introduction of such new technology presents specific technical issues, although it lays the foundation of future optical networking. Network outages are an important concern since, by using WDM, tens of gigabits of data are transported on each fiber. On one hand, traffic interruption is avoided as much as possible through secure fiber routings, cable protection, high design and equipment standards, and security. On the other hand, network protection techniques are used to limit the impact on services when inevitable outages occur. We explain the role of the different technologies in TEN's network. We concentrate on WDM and optical networking where optical channels are used to interconnect the equipment used by the different technologies. We focus on optical network protection techniques and illustrate that a clear requirement exists for this. We also emphasize interworking issues that come into play when multiple technologies are combined in the same network. It is not the intent to discuss only future requirements, but also to explain how the different aspects are currently implemented in TEN's operational network View full abstract»
The evolution of transport network survivabilityPage(s): 44 - 51| | Quick Abstract | PDF (756 KB)
The bandwidth explosion ushered in by the popularity of the Internet has spurred the acceleration in the development and deployment of equipment supporting packet-based services. This-coupled with the widespread deployment of dense wavelength-division multiplexed systems in the core transport network to satisfy the corresponding increase in capacity demand-has led network planners to reconsider traditional approaches to network survivability. Existing architectures for transport network survivability were developed based on a ubiquitous circuit-switched/TDM network paradigm. As tariffed services increasingly migrate from circuit-switched/TDM to packet-switched/DWDM networks, survivability architectures must also evolve to meet the service requirements of this "new" packet-switched/DWDM network paradigm. We begin with an overview of existing strategies for providing transport network survivability, followed by an analysis of how the architectures for network survivability may evolve to satisfy the requirements of emerging networks View full abstract»
Architectures for ATM network survivability and their field deploymentPage(s): 88 - 94| | Quick Abstract | PDF (692 KB)
Future networks must offer extremely high levels of reliability because information has become critical to the continued well-being of society. This article shows the approaches to the survivable ATM network. The reliability requirements of future networks are discussed first. Development results of three typical restoration architectures (automatic protection switch (APS), self-healing network (SHN), and failure-resistant virtual path (FRVP)) for ATM networks are then shown. Next, we describe current progress in standardization activities. They also discuss open issues that must be resolved in future studies View full abstract»
The evolution of a reliable transport networkPage(s): 52 - 57| | Quick Abstract | PDF (568 KB)
This article shows how transport networks may evolve in the future, driven by new technologies and new customer requirements for cost, reliability, and traffic growth. It does not simply compare new technologies and architectures, but accepts that most operators are not starting with a green-field site. It therefore also addresses the operator's problems of introducing and integrating new technologies into existing transport networks and migrating services from one transport technology to another. This in turn drives different technologies to evolve to new levels of reliability over time. The article is written from the perspective of an established European network operator, and differences are brought out from the evolution of networks in North America View full abstract»
Photonic transport technologies to create robust backbone networksPage(s): 78 - 87| | Quick Abstract | PDF (1024 KB)
This article discusses the role of the new optical layer in terms of transport layer architecture and functional allocations. The envisaged future photonic network is identified, and the technologies needed to realize reliable communication are clarified. Network-node interface technologies, and network protection and restoration strategies are discussed in detail, since these are key to developing a network with high integrity that will be a main pillar of the future information society. Finally, applications of photonic network technologies and a network design example are presented; the IP backbone network based on optical path technologies is highlighted View full abstract»
Future transport network architecturesPage(s): 96 - 101| | Quick Abstract | PDF (704 KB)
The architecture of today's long distance transmission networks, which we call the baseline architecture, is a complex and multilayered hierarchy of TDM circuits. One premise of the baseline architecture is that restoration from network failures is provided mostly by SONET/SDH rings. This article presents an alternative architecture that uses ATM and optical layer cross-connect technology for TDM services. Using a sophisticated set of network design tools developed at AT&T Labs-Research, we show that the alternative architecture offers dramatic capital savings and improved network efficiency over the baseline architecture. Most of this savings can be attributed to use of OLXC mesh network restoration, which makes more efficient use of capacity than SONET/SDH rings, and use of ATM switching for transport of TDM circuits, which consolidates the numerous TDM equipment layers inherent to the baseline architecture. In addition, motivated by the rapid growth of IP services, we analyze in the alternative architecture whether to provide restoration for IP services in the IP layer itself, by rerouting packets over precalculated restoration paths with MPLS, or to alternatively provide restoration of failed IP layer links in the OLXC layer. One potential advantage of IP layer restoration is that network operators may choose to only restore a fraction of the services, in particular the "priority" services, affected by a network failure. This article gives some methodology of how to determine this fraction at which IP layer restoration is cost-competitive with OLXC restoration View full abstract»

Resilience in multilayer networksPage(s): 70 - 76| | Quick Abstract | PDF (624 KB)
The integration of different technologies such as ATM, SDH, and WDM in multilayer transport networks raises many questions regarding the coordination of the individual network layers. Especially in the area of network survivability, much can be gained by a better alignment of the healing actions taken by different network layers in case of outages. Survivability issues encountered in a multilayer environment include, among others: how to identify the original failure cause, how to appoint for each failure a layer responsible for its healing, how to let different layers interwork, and how to provide spare resources in an efficient way View full abstract»
Sprint long distance network survivability: today and tomorrowPage(s): 58 - 62| | Quick Abstract | PDF (572 KB)
The high reliability exhibited by the Sprint long distance network is the result of many interrelated factors. The network utilizes robust architectures, systems, and equipment to provide a reliable transport infrastructure. Redundant equipment, conservative synchronization, protected power, and other factors combine to form a dependable foundation. New architectures and systems are under development to meet the changing demands of customers. This article summarizes Sprint's current network reliability, and emerging demands and technology, and presents possible directions for the future Sprint network. Sprint selected the SONET four-fiber bidirectional line switched ring (4F BLSR) architecture for the vast majority of its transport network architecture. A 4F BLSR architecture requires four fibers, or four optical wavelengths of wave division multiplexing (WDM), to accommodate a work and protect path in each direction around a ring of network elements or add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) View full abstract»

Inside Lines: Volley from volleyball as bid for funding reprieve fails
Sunday 03 February 2013
Slam dunkers reprieved, but is volleyball now a basket case? A reprieve for basketball, whose funding has been restored by UK Sport, but its sporting cousin volleyball now faces a possible death sentence after its own appeal was turned down.
British Volleyball's president, Richard Callicott, suggests this could cause the "utter obliteration" of the sport at the top level here. He is seeking legal advice following last week's confirmation that neither indoor nor sitting volleyball – the Para-lympic sport which 2005 London bombing victim Martine Wright says "helped bring me back to life" – will be given funding towards preparations for the Rio Olympics.
"We have produced a generation of players from nowhere who should be entering the most crucial phase of their development and starting work towards making an impact on the world scene," says Callicott. "They are now going to be denied that." He adds that they were given a fair hearing during their 45-minute appeal but remains intensely aggrieved with the outcome, which instead of restoring all or part of their £3.5 million funding, save for £400,000 already allotted to beach volleyball, offers a one-day workshop "to explore challenges you face" and an annual review.
The restoration of funding for basketball, previously given £8.6m, coincides with a strongly worded letter to the Prime Minister from Britain's Chicago Bulls superstar Luol Deng demanding Government intervention. But UK Sport's chief executive, Liz Nicholl, denies they were influenced by this. "It doesn't affect us. All our decisions are based on performance potential."
Like table tennis, another sport whose funding (£1.2m) has been slashed, volleyball will seek an independent review, but admits it does not have the resources to challenge the decision in court. The performance director, Kenny Barton, said the body would now be forced to withdraw teams from the World Championships, for which they face a fine. "As things stand I'm the last man in the office and will probably have to turn the lights out."
Legal eagle who dares
The Winter Olympics in Sochi are one year away this week, which also marks exactly 25 years since Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards, 49, soared into our consciousness as a truly abominable snowman.
Looking somewhere between Mr Magoo and Benny Hill's Fred Scuttle, the squinting ski jumper from Stroud won hearts, though nothing else, in Calgary. He was once the most lampooned figure in British sport, but he's always had bottle.
Last night he was soaring again, plunging off the high board to win the final of ITV's diving-for-dilettantes show, Splash! Olympic blazers may still shudder, but his 15 minutes of fame turned into a lifetime's celebrity. The once-bankrupt plasterer, now with a law degree, is having the last laugh on those who continue to see him as a national joke when actually he's more of a national treasure.
Fond farewell to Frank
Frank Keating, who died nine days ago, was the gentlest of souls and the most amusingly entertaining of sportswriters. Those who read his elegantly spun words surely believed he had great passion for all things sporting, but there was one for which the man whose parting phrase was "much love" had no love at all: Wimbledon. He detested it, believing it a bastion of middle-class privilege and snobbery.
While covering it for The Guardian back in the early Seventies he nipped out from the Centre Court press box for a cup of tea, handing his media pass temporarily to a youngster queuing for an outside court. The intruder was soon ejected and Keating hauled up before the All England Club Committee, and told he would be banned for a week. "Can't you make it life?" he pleaded.
Frank's funeral will be on Thursday (12.45pm) at Belmont Abbey, Ruckhall Lane, Hereford, where no doubt there will be much love.

Kobe admits his knee is nearly bone-on-bone
Jan 7, 2011, 2:32 PM EST
It is hard to judge just how much Kobe Bryant is hurting.
It's because he doesn't give in to his body, he just keeps pushing through the pain. He keeps playing, keeps pressing forward and pushing his team with a Terminator like will. He can be slowed by pain, he may miss shots with a broken finger, but he does not stop. Ever.
But Kobe's right knee — the one he had surgery on this past summer for a third time in his 15 seasons — is bad and that is why he has been sitting out team practices this year, he told Peter Vecsey of the New York Post.
"Because I have very little cartilage under my right knee cap, it's almost bone on bone…
"You know how competitive and combative I am on the court," he said. "There's nothing I like better than to practice. In fact, I like practice more than the games, because I get to go at my teammates hard. That's when you find out what they're made of, how much you can push some to get the most out of 'em, and how you have to back off others so you don't lose 'em…
"So, in order to protect my knee and avoid a situation like last year (where he had to have his knee drained of fluid during the playoffs), we decided before the season to sacrifice the team's intensity by minimizing wear and tear as much as possible."
After the ugly string of Lakers games around Christmas, Kobe scrapped that plan and has come back to practice to pick up the intensity. He also has picked up the intensity of therapy on his knee so he can get through all this.
We've seen what bone-on-bone knee pain has done to Brandon Roy. It should make Lakers fans — and just fans of basketball — take a step back and really appreciate what Bryant does on the court right now. Because at some point soon he will not be able to push past the knee pain any more, the elevation won't be quite the same on the jump shot, the explosion heading to the rim will be missing.
Kobe will adjust and still be effective. He already has started to, moving more into the post for his offense. But that will be a slightly different Kobe. We should appreciate the one we have now.

Kobe & Michael Jordan are exactly the kind of athlete that we want them to be and sometimes it makes me feel guilty. Jordan is a pathological competitor; we loved him for it on the court but it makes the rest of his life very difficult. And now Kobe…. he's running his body into the ground for us (really for him). Poor guy. Well, keep it up! Whooo KOBE!!!

I remember seeing him at Disneyland Paris right after his rookie season. He was really nobody back then… a 19 year old, unproven kid playing among men. He walked by with another tall black guy and they had several Disneyland staff accompanying them. Nobody followed him for his autograph. Probably almost no one in the park knew who he was that day. He didn't have a rookie season that told the world he was who he would become in pro basketball. I knew who he was because I've been all Lakers since the early 80′s. He has been pure gold to the Lakers over 15 seasons and I will always appreciate his unmatched skill and passion he puts on display for the fans who cheer. I will miss him the way I've missed Magic, Worthy, Scott and Kareem. I hope he quits while he has what's left of his health. He has nothing left to prove to anyone on the basketball court. Thanks for the great memories Kobe.

Last week we issued a bounty on pictures from Gan Matthews going away party. If you can believe it, an Ogle Mole actually submitted a couple of photos we requested. Sadly, none of them had to do with Joleen Chaney, Liz Dueweke and Jennifer Pierce in a pink bikini.
Here are the photos:
Photo 1: Adrianna Iwasinski asking Rusty Surette why he invited Marisa Mendelson. ($9)
Uhm, is Adrianna Iwasinksi asking Rusty Surette about Marisa Mendelson, or is she turning her finger into a metallic blade and asking him to "Call to John?" I guess it doesn't matter. We'll assume she's asking about Marisa Mendelson.
Photo 2: Bo Turner reciting his newest poem "Ode to a Grecian Gan Matthews." ($14)
This Thursday the Oklahoma State Fair makes its triumphant return to Oklahoma City. It's one of the best times of the year. People from all over the state descend upon the state capitol, rent their favorite rascal, and wait in long lines for cinnamon rolls, beer and corn. Also, the "clever" guy in your office makes the same boring and tired joke about the state fair and rain.
Anyway, the return of the State Fair means the return of our Oklahoma State Fair Photo Contest. We are looking for photos that capture the cringe-inducing yet hysterical awesomeness that is the Oklahoma State Fair. If you need examples, check out our last three contests.
• 2010 Oklahoma State Fair Photo Contest
• 2009 Oklahoma State Fair Photo Contest
• 2008 Oklahoma State Fair Photo Contest
This is how the contest works.
1. Go to the State Fair and take pictures.
2. Email (email@example.com) or Tweet (@thelostogle) those pictures directly to us. By doing this, you give us the authority and rights to use the photo(s) on the site and in the contest.
3. Once the State Fair ends, we'll select our favorite photos and let our readers vote for the best.
4. The person who submits the winning photograph WINS a dinner for four to Deep Fork Grill. We'll also give away prizes to the finalists.
Anyway, be sure to tell you friends, family, coworkers about our contest. As always, it should be awesome. Also, check us out on Thursday when we countdown or Top 10 favorite State Fair photos over the last three years.
p.s. – The contest is in no way, shape or form actually affiliated with the Oklahoma State Fair.
This young man isn't crying because the Sooner's are losing, he is crying because his parents are getting a divorce. And, like most red-blooded males, the only time he can truly express his feelings is during sports. As men, we like to bottle our anger, because hey, you never know when an unexpected guest is going to stop by and you'll need a bottle of anger. As many of you know, Oklahoma recently topped the list of highest divorce rates in the nation. The Oklahoman ran a story about it, but they decided to omit the part about our state topping the list. Probably because it didn't shine a great light on our holier than thou citizenry.
"Surprisingly, the South and West, which we think of as more socially conservative, have higher rates of divorce than does the supposedly liberal East," said Andrew Cherlin, a professor of sociology and public policy at Johns Hopkins University. "The reason is that young adults in the South and West tend to have less education and marry earlier, both of which lead to a higher risk of divorce."
So, to paraphrase, what Andrew Cherlin is saying is, "Oklahomans are young, dumb and full of… love that doesn't last."
But not to worry, after the jump I'm going to give five tips to lower the divorce rate! That'll show those liberal elites.
I went to Texas this past weekend to visit some family. While there, I came down with either food poisoning, appendicitis or stomach cancer.
Anyway, today is our final installment in the Best of OKC. We'll have a more thorough breakdown of our city's worst later next week. Until then, vote for Oklahoma City's worst website.
Citizens! In case you've missed the lawn signs on every corner, today is your chance to vote in the primary elections for a highly prestigious and effective seat in Tulsa's own city council. Although I can't think of a good reason to vote (besides skipping out on work for 45 minutes and wearing that sticker the rest of the day), I feel it is my civic duty to keep my devoted TLO readers aware of current issues at hand. I also felt like it was my civic duty to inform those punks from TU playing "Cheers Governor" at Fassler Hall that they were annoying as shit, but that only resulted in even louder exclamations. I blame this on karma–less than a year ago, I was one of those douches who brought fun dice, quarters, and decks of cards to the bar with me.
To the surprise of no one, North Tulsa's districts are heavily weighted with Democratic candidates, and Midtown and South Tulsa's districts are almost exclusively Republican. To find out more about these candidates, click here.
More important than "who" is screwing around on our city council is the "what" of the matter. What has Tulsa's City Council been doing the last few years? The last thing I remember hearing a lot about was Vision 2025–that being said, I lived in the great City of Norman the past 4 years, so I've been a little out of the loop. I noticed that downtown Tulsa has made great strides, but then I found out that most everything gentrified or built (besides the BOK Center) was privately financed.
You can read Tulsa City Council's blog updates here, but let's be honest–that's not exactly a fun way to kill time at the office. Rather than read about the bureaucratic policies that your tax dollars are tied up in, I've made a list of initiatives that I'd love to see passed–now roll your eyes and say "after the jump!"
Thanks! Your message has been sent!

The Vanishing
1988 'Spoorloos' Directed by George Sluizer
Who Has Seen This Woman?
A young man begins an obsessive search for his girlfriend after she mysteriously disappears during their sunny vacation getaway. His three-year investigation draws the attention of her abductor, a seemingly mild-mannered professor who, in truth, harbors a diabolically clinical and calculating mind. When the kidnapper contacts the man and promises to reveal his lover's fate, The Vanishing unfolds with intense precision, culminating in a genuinely chilling finale that has unnerved audiences around the world.
Popular reviewsMore
With an ingenious plot structure and a black heart that seems to revel in breaking the audience's own, The Vanishing is a bleak thriller that might not have the technical bravado of Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now, but feels very similar in effect. A devastating loss, a study of grief and obsession, and an ending that is simply cruel, but feels just right. Adapted from Tim Krabbé's novella, The Golden Egg, it's a great example of the benefit of keeping the author on to co-write the screenplay. The pacing and structure work together to keep the plot barreling ahead (something other psych-thrillers occasionally stumble on by concerning too much runtime to developing the mood explicitly instead of letting the story…
Dutch brilliance. What one man is willing to do to uncover the truth of a missing loved one. What one man did that will send shivers up your spine. Thrilling. Edgy. Creepy. No Hollywood ending, but pure satisfaction after viewing.

Criterion Collection - #133
Review In A Nutshell:
The Vanishing is the story of a woman who suddenly disappeared and her friend, after 3 years of searching, starts to receive postcards from a mysterious person.
I found the plot of the film to be potentially intriguing, sadly it failed to keep me interested due to its unfocused characters and the lack of tension during the bulk of the film's first hour. To clarify, the setting up of the film's complication was certainly interesting and it did help set up the film's suspense and mystery which would then benefit the latter half of the film. The issue is found during the film's second act, going back and forth…
This is a story of two men. On one hand, the pain and suffering of one consumed by his grief and on the other, the fulfilment of a dark fantasy by a man who creates the perfect plan. Strangely for a thriller, there is little to no mystery over how or even why the events take place and that makes for an even more involved and powerful story.
Rex and Saskia are a young couple in love, driving their way across Europe into France. They are happy and playful, wrapped in each others space as they encompass the vast expanse of countryside heading toward their destination. She warns him about their low petrol gauge but being the typical know-it-all guy…
Wow, I forgot just how unsettling this movie truly is.
Raymond Lemorne has to be one of the most frightening, brilliant, insane villains in movie history. Hannibal Lecter's got nothing on this guy. And the way the audience finds out his goals and methods and strategy - without resorting to exposition - is simply masterful.
So much has been said about the climax of this film, so I will say no more and let you experience it for yourself. You will not forget it.
Beer: Samuel Adams Blackberry Witbier - 3.5/5 (an oldie but goodie!)
You start with an idea in your head, and you take a step...

I saw the remake of this film once, 20 years ago, and to be honest I had no idea it was a remake at the time. Only learned years later of the original's existence when I saw it was part of the Criterion Collection and eventually finding out it was in fact not the one I had already seen. Since the remake didn't leave much of an impression on me (I didn't even remember Sandra Bullock was in it) my interest in seeing the original film wasn't exactly sparked.
Oddly enough it was Kevin Smith talking about the film on his show Spoilers that put…

Here's a terrific Dutch / French production that gleefully upsets the rules for a normal thriller and takes pride in trying to unnerve it's audience.
Rex and Saskia are a cute Dutch couple vacationing in the French countryside. At a gas station the girl mysteriously disappears and Rex goes on a mission that takes years to finally find out what happened to her.
What makes The Vanishing unique is that the narrative shifts halfway thru to focus on another character. We meet Raymond a strange French family man who as the movie slowly reveals is obviously the man who took Saskia. Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu gives a chilling and fascinating performance as a true sociopath. Raymond is outwardly quiet and a good…
I was very happy to discover this movie because of its subtlety and unique take on themes that are well-tread, to say the least. I would put it in a group with Detour, Vertigo, Lost Highway, etc. in its concerns and narrative inventiveness. It builds intensely toward a complex, not easily assimilated ending. It's one of those movies that didn't hit me fully when I finished watching it, but stuck in my thoughts. It's also unique in being a movie that is utterly horrifying but has only a handful of violent scenes.
If the acting isn't exactly fist rate, it's very good and avoids cliches. The score sounds a bit dated because it's performed with very 80s synth tones, but is also very hypnotic. The new Criterion disc looked and sounded great to me.
Utterly mesmerizing and with one of the greatest and most uncompromising endings I've ever seen.
I'm beginning to develop a theory that most films should end somewhere between two and six minutes before they actually do; great film, by the way.
Third viewing confirms my suspicion that this is a brilliant script, somewhat indifferently directed. Sluizer only manages one memorable shot: the flash-cut to Raymond in the car seen from the outside after Rex drinks the drugged coffee, his face obscured by flowing water, looking like some kind of demon in the process of transformation. But he makes some real directorial mistakes: Rex's "freakouts" are embarrassing, almost humorous in this context, the musical score is absolutely horrid, and why, oh why did they have to show the shot of Raymond burying the coffin when it would have been ten times more effective to simply cut to Rex being inside it?
All that being said, this is one of the most brilliantly…
That ending, tho.

Dick Harmon: BYU women's basketball: Haley Steed completes remarkable comeback
Jonathan Hardy, BYU
PROVO — Jeff Judkins claims his senior BYU point guard may be tougher than he is; that many elite athletes may have quit their careers rather than confront the lengthy, painful rehabilitations undergone by the diminutive, gutsy Haley Steed.
The former Clearfield High star will lead the Cougars into the semifinals of the WCC Basketball Tournament in Las Vegas this weekend at Orleans Arena. That she's even on the court is a tribute to modern medicine and Steed's mental strength.
Three times in her career, Steed underwent surgery to repair the ACL in her knees, twice in her left leg.
As a freshman, Steed entered Judkins' program and tore up her knee. She spent the rest of the year undergoing extensive rehabilitation to repair the damage fixed by surgery.
Then, on the first day of basketball practice the following season, she tore it again. Discouraged and disappointed but determined, she climbed back on the weight machines, cautiously underwent rehabilitation and prepared to make a comeback.
In her third year, ready to step up for Judkins, in her first game, she did it again. Her knee incurred another ACL tear, an injury to the knee's major supportive ligament, and she was done for the season.
Three strikes, and most the time, a person is done. They quit. They turn to art, music, academics, test tubes, research, teaching, coaching or whatever. They don't come back again.
Steed did.
On Tuesday, the WCC named her to the all-conference team after a sterling senior season in which she has 215 assists and 66 steals. She is the flesh-and-bone compass that guides Judkins' squad.
"It was super discouraging," said Steed of her knee injuries.
"I won't lie. There was definitely a time I thought I was done with basketball. I couldn't go on any more. But there's something about this place and this program that is inspiring. I love it here. I didn't want to feel like I was done playing, and I had a drive and dedication left in me.
"Looking back, it's just crazy. I just feel grateful. One thing it did teach me is you can't take it for granted. You have to play each day like it's your last or you aren't going to play anymore."
You ask Judkins about Steed, and he doesn't hide his admiration. He speaks of her as a Marvel Comics character, a Wonder Woman, if you will.
"The mental part of injury is worse than the physical," said Judkins.
"I have never seen a kid be able to do what she has done mentally. It shows the kind of character she has. I'll be talking about her to other players for years. Look at the heart, look at the determination, the love of the game Haley has. She's a great example.
"If you talk to anyone who knows Haley, she's always been this way. She is a very tough kid in everything she does."
Judkins, a former NBA player and collegiate All-American at Utah, said Steed has made him realize many things as a coach and has made him a better coach.
Three ACL surgeries in three years and come back?
"I don't think I could have done it," said Judkins. "I think I'm pretty tough and I couldn't do it. I saw a lot of athletes who got a knee injury or some other serious injury and never made it back."
Judkins says Steed has played as well as any point guard he's coached. She's had chances at double-doubles and almost had a triple-double. A typical Steed game is eight assists, eight points, three steals and two turnovers.
"More importantly, she sets the tempo for the game on both ends of the court," the coach said.
And in all humility, Judkins admits: "She's taken a lot of pressure off me. She gets the players together, takes over the team and communicates with them. That is what she does."
For Steed, she knows the score this week in Las Vegas.
"This is all that matters now," Steed said of the WCC tournament.
"Everything up to now has been a fun season, but it doesn't really matter. Our season pretty much comes down to two games."
Steed knows something about getting to the bottom line about basketball.
