Pulp Fiction © Jami Bernard the a List: the National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films, 2002
Pulp Fiction © Jami Bernard The A List: The National Society of Film Critics’ 100 Essential Films, 2002 When Quentin Tarantino traveled for the first time to Amsterdam and Paris, flush with the critical success of “Reservoir Dogs” and still piecing together the quilt of “Pulp Fiction,” he was tickled by the absence of any Quarter Pounders with Cheese on the European culinary scene, a casualty of the metric system. It was just the kind of thing that comes up among friends who are stoned or killing Harvey Keitel (left) and Quentin Tarantino attempt to resolve “The Bonnie Situation.” time. Later, when every nook and cranny Courtesy Library of Congress of “Pulp Fiction” had become quoted and quantified, this minor burger observation entered pop (something a new generation certainly related to through culture with a flourish as part of what fans call the video games, which are similarly structured). Travolta “Tarantinoverse.” gets to stare down Willis (whom he dismisses as “Punchy”), something that could only happen in a movie With its interlocking story structure, looping time frame, directed by an ardent fan of “Welcome Back Kotter.” In and electric jolts, “Pulp Fiction” uses the grammar of film each grouping, the alpha male is soon determined, and to explore the amusement park of the Tarantinoverse, a the scene involves appeasing him. (In the segment called stylized merging of the mundane with the unthinkable, “The Bonnie Situation,” for example, even the big crime all set in a 1970s time warp. Tarantino is the first of a boss is so inexplicably afraid of upsetting Bonnie, a night slacker generation to be idolized and deconstructed as nurse, that he sends in his top guy, played by Harvey Kei- much for his attitude, quirks, and knowledge of pop- tel, to keep from getting on her bad side.) culture arcana as for his output, which as of this writing has been Jack-Rabbit slim. -
Smörgåsbord: Award Show Scandals
Smörgåsbord: Award Show Scandals Every year, media award shows like the Grammys, Emmys, and Oscars recognize the hard work put into a wide array of diverse movies, TV shows, songs, and albums. However, no event is perfect, and the mass anticipation for each show ensures that every rare on-stage slip-up is bound to make headlines is made that much more memorable when it occurs. With the 2018 Academy Awards having just recently passed, here’s a quick highlight reel of some of the most famous fumbles forever enshrined in award show history. La La Land Smörgåsbord: Award Show Scandals graphic by Amanda Shi An Oscar is one of the highest honors possible for a work of media. And of course, the more serious the award, the more shocking the slip-up, and there can be no greater (and thus unforgettable) mistake in an Oscars award show than presenting the wrong winner. In an absolutely unprecedented, history-making moment at the 89th Academy Awards, La La Land Smörgåsbord: Award Show Scandals was mistakenly called as winner of Best Picture. An envelope mix-up was to blame for starting the misunderstanding; the Best Actress in a Leading Role envelope had somehow been swapped with the Best Picture envelope. Warren Beatty had known something was wrong when he opened the card and read ‘Emma Stone, La La Land’, but he hadn’t known how to respond to such an unexpected scenario. In his confusion, he attempted to stall for time by pausing in between words, but both the audience and his co-presenter Faye Dunaway interpreted it as him deliberately building suspense. -

Church of Scientology Statement Andrew Morton’S Unauthorized Biography of Tom Cruise
CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY INTERNATIONAL 14 January 2008 For further information contact: Karin Pouw, Public Affairs Director (323) 960-3500 CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY STATEMENT ANDREW MORTON’S UNAUTHORIZED BIOGRAPHY OF TOM CRUISE For the last two years, the Church of Scientology requested to be interviewed or be presented with any allegations so we could respond. Morton refused despite our insistence in offering our cooperation. At no time did he request interviews nor did he attempt to get any information from us. Accuracy and truth were not on Morton’s agenda. While making all sorts of bizarre and false allegations about Mr. Miscavige, the Church’s ecclesiastical leader, Morton at no time ever attempted to contact, speak to or interview him. As a result his book is a bigoted, defamatory assault replete with lies. Morton comes from a tabloid background and his book reads like British tabloid journalism at its worst. British publishers rejected the book because of Morton’s inability to prove the truth of his allegations, something the laws of the UK require and of which Morton is well aware. Notwithstanding his US publisher’s knowledge that his British publishing house refused publication of Morton’s diatribe due to his inability to substantiate his claims, they still steadfastly refused to present any of the allegations for either refutations or response. Furthermore, scandalous falsehoods attributed to Morton appeared in the UK press 2 months ago. The Church demanded he correct these falsehoods which he and his publisher refused to do. However, the newspaper that published Morton’s lies did take responsibility—printing a full retraction when presented with the facts by the Church. -
Base SAS® Tips, Tricks and Techniques
Paper Number 2754 DATA Step versus PROC SQL Programming Techniques Kirk Paul Lafler, Software Intelligence Corporation ABSTRACT Are you considering whether to use a DATA step or PROC SQL step in your next project? This presentation explores the similarities and differences between DATA step and PROC SQL programming techniques. Topics include IF- THEN-ELSE, SELECT-WHEN, and PROC SQL CASE expressions conditional logic concepts and constructs; and the techniques for constructing effective merges and joins. Attendees explore examples that contrast DATA step versus PROC SQL programming techniques to conduct conditional logic scenarios, one-to-one match-merges and match-joins, and an assortment of inner and outer join programming constructs. INTRODUCTION This paper illustrates the similarities and differences between the Base-SAS software DATA step and SQL procedure. We’ll examine two “key” topics that most users are confronted with when working with their tables of data, conditional logic scenarios and merges/joins. This paper introduces brief explanations, guidelines and “simple” techniques for users to consider when confronted with conditional logic scenarios and merges/joins. You are encouraged to explore these and other techniques to make your SAS experience an exciting one. EXAMPLE TABLES The data used in all the examples in this paper consist of a selection of movies that I’ve viewed over the years. The Movies table contains four character columns: title, category, studio, and rating, and two numeric columns: length and year. The data stored in the Movies table is shown below. MOVIES Table The data stored in the ACTORS table consists of three columns: title, actor_leading, and actor_supporting, all of which are defined as character columns. -
A Hands-On Tour Inside the World of PROC SQL® Kirk Paul Lafler, Software Intelligence Corporation, Spring Valley, California
NESUG 2007 Hands-On Workshops A Hands-on Tour Inside the World of PROC SQL® Kirk Paul Lafler, Software Intelligence Corporation, Spring Valley, California Abstract Structured Query Language (PROC SQL) is a database language found in the base-SAS software. It enables access to data stored in SAS® data sets or tables using a powerful assortment of statements, clauses, options, functions, and other language features. This hands -on workshop presents core concepts of this powerful language as well as its many applications, and is intended for SAS users who desire an overview of the capabilities of this exciting procedure. Attendees will explore the construction of SQL queries, ordering and grouping data, the application of case logic for data reclassification, the creation and use of views, and the construction of simple inner and outer joins. Introduction The SQL procedure is a wonderful tool for querying and subsetting data; restructuring or regrouping data by specifying case expressions ; constructing and using virtual tables known as views; joining two or more tables (up to 32) to explore data relationships . Occasionally, a problem comes along where the SQL procedure is either better suited or easier to use than other more conventional DATA and/or PROC step methods. As each situation presents itself, PROC SQL should be examined to see if its use is warranted for the task at hand. Many SAS users prefer the power and coding simplicity of the SQL procedure in perform ing data analysis and routine everyday tasks rather than using other DATA or PROC step approaches and methods . Whatever the nature of the requirements or SQL usage, this paper is intended to present an overview of some of the most exciting features found in PROC SQL. -
