![]() As Tom digs deeper into who the girl is, he discovers his son Jake (Zachary David Cope) is also psychic. When his wife’s psychic sister Lisa (Illeana Douglas) hypnotizes him and leaves a post-hynoptic suggestion to “open his mind,” Tom awakens with horrific visions of a young woman beckoning him to help her. Tom Witzky ( Kevin Bacon) is a family man with a beautiful wife and young son. In rereading my notes I had a lot of exclamation and question marks and I started yelling aloud to the television. The only way I could recommend this is if you did gathered a bunch of friends together and just bashed it. Stir of Echoes falls right before The Box but WELL below anything resembling a good movie. Out of the films/books I’ve read there’s the good ( Legend of Hell House which I reviewed awhile back), the decent ( What Dreams May Come is a worthy effort), the “great movie but it’s not at all the book” ( I Am Legend), and the utter shit ( The Box). I have the Matheson book, and several other Matheson novels, and from what I’ve seen Hollywood just doesn’t know how to adapt the man’s work. There's a lot to appreciate here.Today’s film is the 1999 Stir of Echoes, a loose (and boy is that meaning applied here with a paintbrush) adaptation of the Richard Matheson book of the same name. If Stir Of Echoes had been released at another time, it definitely would have more fans. While there could have been a sequel, as it would be cool to follow Jake's journey, the conclusion does feel right. ![]() While Tom and Maggie decide to move away, which is a great idea since this neighborhood has bad, creepy vibes, Jake can hear the static and sounds of the supernatural, suggesting that he will continue to see and hear strange things even when the family is in a new location. Stir Of Echoes joins horror movies with endings that aren't spelled out. The movies also each have a famous actress playing a young adult character: Jennifer Morrison does a good job as Samantha in Stir Of Echoes and Mischa Barton famously played Kyra, a young girl whose mother poisoned her in The Sixth Sense. While Cole and Jake aren't scary horror movie kids, they do make quite the impression. Both films also have child characters, as Haley Joel Osment became famous for portraying the role of Cole Sear. They're also tied to the spirit world and can see and hear things that others can't. Both movies feature main characters who feel a duty to solve a mystery and help people. ![]() Stir Of Echoes is an underrated 1990s horror film and also shares some things in common with The Sixth Sense. It's a nice, quiet block where bad things aren't supposed to happen. I liked the way Chicago looked, and I felt like I hadn't seen a ghost story set in that kind of setting before." This works well as Tom, Maggie, and the other families on the street just want a good, honest life and they are traumatized by the horror that took place in the neighborhood. ![]() I grew up in Wisconsin, and my mother is from the South Side of Chicago. Koepp explained, "I liked the working-class setting, so I tried to think of another city with older architecture and some working-class neighborhoods that I was personally familiar with. Club, director David Koepp shared that while the book that Stir Of Echoes is adapted from is in California, Koepp thought that a Chicago setting would be better for the movie. It's a horrible story that the movie doesn't dwell on for too long. Tom learns that Kurt and Adam, two boys from the neighborhood, attempted to assault Samantha and then murdered her. Tom wants to help find out what happened, and when he ends up finding Samantha's body in the walls of a house in the neighborhood, he realizes that his instincts have been right all along. The movie takes a compassionate approach to the missing girl trope. Tom's visions are fascinating and show that he can access another world besides this one. The story is definitely there: after Lisa, Maggie's sister (Illeana Douglas), hypnotizes Tom, Tom realizes that he can see Samantha Kozac (Jennifer Morrison), a teenage girl from the area who went missing. If The Sixth Sense and Stir Of Echoes hadn't hit theaters around the same time, it's easy to imagine that Stir Of Echoes would have made a bigger impression among horror fans.

Marek survives and attacks Robbins, but the Father defends him before he can deliver the final blow. It also triggers the satellite infrared sensors, causing the Warden to send troops to the island. However, he stays behind to fire the stolen rocket launcher, which ignites an incendiary bomb that kills most of the Outsiders. Over stern objection, Robbins convinces the Insiders to abandon their camp. With the help of an Insider spy, Robbins escapes from the camp again, which infuriates Marek, who announces an all-out war with the Insiders. Casey impales and kills himself on Robbin's weapon, and Robbins is taken to be executed. He is then forced to fight Casey, who secretly tailed Robbins to the camp but was caught in a booby trap. ![]() Robbins infiltrates the Outsiders' camp and gets the engine part, but he is captured by the Outsiders. Robbins offers to get the part in exchange for a seat on the boat, and the Insiders agree. He learns that the Insiders' boat engine needs a distributor, a part which Robbins saw while in Marek's camp. Robbins learns of the Insiders' plan to escape using another motorboat, and he demands a seat, determined to escape so he can tell the authorities the truth behind the civilian deaths in Libya and of Absolom. However, somehow the boat is detected by the attack helicopters and is destroyed. The Insiders have secretly built a scan-proof boat and launch it, manned by secret volunteers to escape the island and tell the outside world about Absolom. He then starts controlling rations to keep the troops in line. Marek, back at the Outsider's camp, disposes of all the leaders of the various gangs that compose the Outsiders, giving himself a solidified force. Other than that, the Warden lets the prisoners do what they want, including killing each other off. The prisoners are also being tracked by infrared satellite technology, mainly there to detect significant thermal activity such as large fires or explosions that could tip off other agencies. Robbins is taken to the shore, where he learns that they are 200 miles from the mainland, and that there are gunships 50 miles off the coast. He refuses and says he wants to leave Absolom. Robbins learns that he is the only person to have ever challenged and escaped from Marek's camp and that the weapon he stole had been appropriated for the good of the community.Īfter an attack by the Outsiders, The Father notes Robbins's resourcefulness and combat acumen and asks Robbins to join them. The Insiders number exactly 98, while the Outsiders total over 600. He also meets King, the new-arrival helper, and Casey, a young man given a life sentence for taking part in a high-profile kidnapping. Robbins awakens inside the Insiders' camp, which is led by a terminally-ill doctor called 'The Father', who put together a cooperative autonomous community with laws opposed to the tyranny of the Outsiders. He falls into the river below, where he washes up on some rocks and is retrieved by another group, called the 'Insiders'. Pursued through the jungle, he ends up trapped at the edge of a high cliff where he is shot in the neck by blowgun darts. Robbins instead knocks Marek into a pool, steals his rocket launcher, and flees from the Outsider's camp. Marek is impressed when Robbins kills his opponent in seconds, and offers him a position in his gang. ![]() ![]() ![]() Marek insists that Robbins fight one of his men for his amusement. The island -previously a private retreat with dilapidated houses and a swimming pool- is where the Outsiders have established a base. Once on the island, Robbins is captured by a large group of prisoners known as the 'Outsiders', whose only order is The Law of the Jungle and are led by a sociopath named Marek. The warden, after he is held at gunpoint by Robbins, is convinced that Robbins is a threat and exiles him to the island. A fellow prisoner tells him about "Absolom", an island where they send the worst prisoners-a place feared more than the prison. Robbins had escaped from two Level 5 maximum security prisons and is now incarcerated in a Level 6 facility. The event haunts Robbins over a decade later. Highly trained ex-marine John Robbins is imprisoned for life for murdering his commanding officer, who in 2011 ordered him to kill scores of innocent men, women and children in Benghazi (Libya). In the year 2022, the penal system is run entirely by corporations, with prisoners seen as assets. There you'll find all the supporting number that went into the above analysis. Then make sure you click on the "Supporting Schedules" button. You'll, at least hypothetically make more money from your investments than you save in interest charges. If, after plugging in your numbers, you get a negative result too, then YOU SHOULD CONSIDER NOT MAKING EXTRA PAYMENTS!. $28,409 better, as the final result "Interest Saved less Investment Gain" ($52,929 - $81,239) shows you. Now it should be apparent that while a $52,000 savings is terrific, an $81,000 gain is better. If the borrower takes the $200 a month and invests it, after the 276 months, their investment GAIN will be $81,238! (Total value of the investment account will be $55,000 in extra payments invested plus the $81,238 gain equals $136,238.) $52,829 in interest savings and the mortgage that would have usually taken 360 payments to pay off, will be paid off after 276 payments. In this case, investing is more advantageous. Using these defaults, here are the results: Fig. ![]() You, of course, are free to use whatever rate-of-return you like. But considering what the stock market has done since this study, my 7% assumption for deciding whether or not to make extra payments on a loan is conservative.) When you come to this page, you'll find the calculator preloaded with a $260,386 loan/mortgage, and $200 a month is the default prepayment amount.įor the investment rate-of-return, the calculator uses as a default 7.2%, which is the approximate average rate-of-return for the S&P 500 according to this (somewhat dated) analysis. It then calculates the investment gain and subtracts it from the "Total Interest Saved" to arrive at the net gain from the extra payments (the "Interest Saved Less Investment Gain" shown). The calculator uses "Your Investment Rate-of-Return," and calculates the future value of all the projected extra payments. Imagine what it would be like being free of a 30-year mortgage in 20 years! More below ![]() Thus when you prepay principal (make extra payments), you are lowering the loan balance used for calculating the interest due.Īs I said, this is a mathematical certainty, and this calculator will show you just how much interest you'll save on any loan, and when the loan will be paid off. The periodic interest amount is calculated using the loan's current balance and multiplying it by the periodic interest rate - the lower the balance, the lower the interest amount due. It all has to do with the way loans, and mortgages work. The future savings are a mathematical certainty. How is this possible? What sleight of hand is taking place? ![]() Specifically, with even a less than average mortgage, by making $200 a month extra payments, the borrower will save over $50,000 assuming a 30-year loan and a 4.25% interest rate. If the borrower starts making the extra payments early enough, and for an amount that's not exceptionally large, it is possible to save tens of thousands of dollars on a $200,000 mortgage (the average size new mortgage balance as of February 2022, according to CNBC was $453,00). In some cases, usually for longer-term loans such as mortgages, the savings in interest charges can be quite substantial. The answer to both questions depends on the current balance, the loan's interest rate, when you start making extra payments, and the additional payment amount. If I make extra payments, how much will I save? They do it to reduce the loan's interest charges, and to pay off the debt earlier. Why do people pay an "extra" amount when paying back a loan? As punishment, the siblings were forced to clean an Essex-class cruiser with toothbrushes. During one, Anita spiked his rations with laxatives, only for them to be eaten by their commanding officer. Jackson was known to be a prolific prankster, and he and Anita often broke into prank wars. Jackson additionally obtained the prestigious Combat Pilot Certification during this time, obtaining a Titan of an unknown class. The siblings entered basic training at the same time and spent the whole time together. That way, the departing soldier would have a memento to remind them that the family was always together, no matter how far apart. The morning before a Williams child was to be deployed, the family would share one last round of beers together and fashion the bottle caps into a bracelet. One famous tradition kept by the family was the Williams Sendoff. They kept a scorecard between them, including tasks such as “who said their first word first," “fastest time to disassemble an R-201." “who met Vice Admiral Graves first,” and “who spit on Vice Admiral Graves (post-betrayal) first." The two created a lifeline game to see who would be the “better Williams sibling”, competing at even menial tasks. Throughout childhood, Jackson and Anita held a strong kinship and a friendly rivalry. The Williams family was a military family, and he was raised with his three older brothers & little sister, Anita, to serve in the IMC armed forces, as did four generations before him. Lastly, the wall is also electrified on placement, meaning that, like Wattson's Perimeter Security, it will damage and stun enemy players who touch it.Jackson Williams was born in 2694 on Gridiron to Felicia & Ronald Williams. Each section has 756 health and can be taken down individually via gunfire or two melee attacks. The Castle Wall has three tall sections and two short sections, giving its users options to hide or peek out for pop shots. Ultimately, it is interesting that this currently occurs, and one can only wonder whether or not this was intended by Respawn Entertainment.Īside from this specific maneuver, the best commonly available ways to deal with Newcastle's walls are simply chucking 'nades over it and finding angles on its sides. Thankfully, at the very least, Newcastle's ult just gets reset back to 70% in this instance.Īccording to other players, it appears the dynamic between the two goes both ways as if Horizon's Black Hole is still barely deploying, Newcastle's Castle Wall slam landing first can cause her ult to break as well. In the minute-long clip, Car0nix shows how if a Horizon uses her Black Hole ultimate right where Newcastle is trying to place his Castle Wall, he'll get interrupted and just give up entirely. ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks to this clip showcased by Redditor Car0nix, however, it appears Newcastle's ultimate can easily be stopped altogether by Horizon. Perhaps the most interesting ability Newcastle brings to the table is his Castle Wall ultimate, which allows him to quickly navigate as needed to promptly drop a wall and reset a fight or save a teammate who just got caught out. The latest name to join Respawn Entertainment's roster of Legends in the ever-popular battle royale, Newcastle is a Defensive-class character whose kit revolves around protecting allies from gunfire and reviving teammates in safe positions. Less than a week into Apex Legends: Saviors, it appears players have already found the best way to counter Newcastle's ultimate ability Castle Wall. ![]() Our customers typically report back a reduction in fuel consumption, a smoother acceleration and a much-improved throttle response.

For a quick trip into apple brandy land, if you've never tried it before, a bottle of Laird's will totally do the trick. Thankfully, as PUNCH mentioned above, one of these was Laird's. The temperance movement, prohibition, modern farm practices, and urban growth have all affected the apple industry significantly, even more so the growth of cider apples (a more bitter variety than those grown for juice and fruit.) The result was, for a long time, we didn't drink very much cider in the USA, and the long tradition of brandy making was upheld by only a few purveyors. The history of cider and brandy making in America is absolutely fascinating, as the two used to be the most prevalent and common alcohol consumed, during a time when our young nation consumed an estimated THREE times the amount of alcohol that we do today. I may just have to plan a personal tasting tour of the options next Spring, because just writing this blog post has me thirsty for more history and more brandy!

It became very popular, and a spot nearby called the Sazerac Coffee House-which was really a slick coverup for a saloon-mixed the bitters with its namesake, a cognac called Sazerac-de-Forge et Fils.
