"If this guy could do it, I've at least gotta try."
That was Josh Cruddas's motivation in March during the filming of a short biopic on Nova Scotia and Canadian marathon legend Johnny Miles that will be released in the fall.
Cruddas, who plays Miles in the picture, said he didn't know too much about Miles' upbringing until he was named to the role by director/writer Michael Melski. The more he read about the historic marathon runner, he said, the more intriguing the role became.
"It was just that he went through so much as a kid, in terms of working in a coal mine for four years as a child, which is something to me that is incomprehensible," Cruddas said. "I don't think kids these days in the Western world are accustomed to that, so the fact that he was able to overcome that upbringing – although he had loving parents – just the situation where he was breathing in all this black coal dust for so much of his childhood and then going out to win two Boston Marathons, going to the Olympics and having this natural determination to overcome the physical struggle that he went through in order to do that."
When he was 11 years old, Miles was forced to take a job in the coal mines in Cape Breton, where his family had moved to make a living early in his life. His father had left to fight in the First World War, so Jonny worked in the mines for three years until his father came home.
It was then that he started to pursue running, although - according to a Boston Globe report - it wasn't for the fitness or glory, it was for the prizes.
According to that same Globe report his first prizes, for a third-place finish, were a hundred-pound bag of flour and a desk lamp. As he continued to run his passion to be the best and win bigger events grew.
In 1925, Miles became the Canadian 5-mile champion, but his most shocking victory came in 1926 when he won the Boston Marathon. He had only run 26 miles once before this marathon and his victory shocked the running world, who expected either Clarence DeMar or Albin Stenroos to win the race.
Three years later, Miles won the Boston Marathon again, making him the only Nova Scotian to win the event twice.
Filming the biopic, which took place in Mount Uniacke and Chedabucto Bay, was somewhat of a challenge for Cruddas, who said that it was his first time playing a real-life person, at least not playing a role based on someone. His biggest role so far in his early career was in Copperhead, although he has a minor role in an upcoming episode of Rookie Blue.
Melski approached Cruddas for the role because his build and facial features are similar to that of Miles. That made that aspect of the role easy, but, knowing the impact Miles had in Nova Scotia and around the world, encouraged Cruddas to ensure he was as true in his emotions as possible.
"Johnny Miles and I have a similar build and facial structure, but just playing someone like that there is no room to be anything less than 100 per cent honest because the camera will pick up anything that I don't believe in 100 per cent or anything that I don't inhabit as an actor, the camera will pick it up," said Cruddas. "You have to be so real and do all your research and all your homework, so that was certainly a challenge."
Portraying the struggles Miles went through during his training was easy in one regard as the filming in March came with rain, snow, hail and high winds. In another way it made it more difficult for saying lines and being able to remain focused on the character.
"We shot in early March, so it was still quite cold and we were dealing with snow, rain, hail and high winds," he said. "The physical aspect of trying to say lines, while I'm literally trying to create sweat in a time when it was very cold. We would pour water over my hair and my head, which was another physical obstacle to overcome, but any time I thought 'oh man, this is tough,' you just realized that after every shot I could go under a coat or warm up in a car."
Miles was known for his quirks, which included running in shorts in the winter, using a composite of olive oil and wintergreen to prevent frostbite. He was also known for running behind his horse-drawn wagon when he was working for a co-op store, as stated in a 2003 Boston Globe piece on Miles.
Cruddas said he couldn't imagine that sort of training, going back to the fact that he was able to take breaks and warm up when the weather became too much.
"Johnny Miles when he would've been running at the exact same time of year many, many years ago was running for 26 miles and running straight through," he said. "There's no stopping or getting warm. There's no coffee waiting. Anything that we had (during the filming), he didn't have."
There is no official release date for the short biopic, which the production team hopes to show to the public during film festivals beginning in the fall.

Outrage After Sky News Reporter Combs Through Luggage Of Airliner Shootdown Victim On-Air
British cable news channel Sky News was forced to apologize after broadcasting reporter Colin Brazier rummaging through the abandoned belongings of those murdered in the shootdown of a Malaysian Airlines flight over eastern Ukraine last week.
On Sunday, Brazier was at the scene of the crash, which remains cordoned off by the pro-Russian separatists likely involved in the shootdown. Families of the victims have been unable to visit the scene, and bodies and belonging remain strewn over miles of farmland or stacked in the backs of flatbed trucks.
The Sky News reporter began poking through "the paraphernalia of holiday-making and travel" while broadcasting to a live audience, at one point holding up items from a victim's suitcase for examination.
"I think it's a small girl's bag, isn't it, by the looks of things," he said, holding up a bright pink water bottle. "Some keys, toothbrush."

How is your virtual network card setup? (NAT, Bridged, Etc)
I suspect you have it as NAT and it should probably be Bridged
Hello All,
I have Oracle VirtualBox installed on my Windows 7 .. I installed Linux Backtrack 5 on it.
I gave it 1GB RAM and 20GB HDD ... Now I have a problem, I used ferret and hamster for sidejacking ( I use it for testing ) ..
When I run it, I'm able to sniff the traffic from the VirtualBox .. but nothing else. Sometimes ( rarely ) I can sniff traffic from the host ( Windows 7 PC ). I'm not sure what am I doing wrong here.
NOTE: I use an external Wireless Card that is compatible with backtrack.
How is your virtual network card setup? (NAT, Bridged, Etc)
I suspect you have it as NAT and it should probably be Bridged
There should be a couple of options within VirtualBox settings for the VM that allows you to "bridge" your wireless or USB adapters. This *should* make it see your wireless device as if it were connected natively.
Well, I tried NAT and Bridged .. Also changed to none and just connected with the USB directly as it is detected. But still, I can't sniff traffic from the network!!
Have you installed guest additions and extension pack?..
even me too...which i will select? NAT or BRIDGE?
because when i chosed NAT,i can browse but when i chosed Bridge i cannot browse..and i am using only prepaid kit,,no router..
is still need a router to use the bridge connections?

text: I've based these selections on rankings from a smattering of websites and perceived needs. 1 Eric Reid, S, LSU. Dynamic playmaker in the secondary to complement our young DB corps. 2 Dallas Thomas, OL, Tennessee. I see him as being able to play OG or RT depending on what he shows in camp. Gives us an injection of athleticism and talent on the OL. 3 Kahled Holmes, C, USC. It would be nice if Costa, Cook, or Killer were the long-term solution at center but that possibility won't prevent me from drafting one of the top ranked prospects in the third round to improve the likelihood of getting that position right this year. 4 Cornelius Carradine, DE. We seem to be willing to take a chance on highly touted but injured players. It Carradine lasts this long, I think it would be a worthwhile risk to take as he would be a solid addition to our front 7 once he becomes healthy. 5 Malliciah Goodman, DE, Clemson. Probably go a round earlier, but is a typical 3-4 DE prospect. 6 Terry Hawthorne, CB, Illinois. Always take a flyer on an athletic corner in the late rounds for depth and ST.

FOWLERVILLE, MI -- Officials at a high school here suspended 25 students who reportedly admitted to stealing snacks from a vending machine.
The Fowlerville High School students served two-day suspensions for stealing an estimated $5 each worth of snacks. No criminal charges are expected, according to the Associated Press, which reported that the investigation was handled by Fowlerville High School officials.
The vending machine belonged to the school's foodservice program. Administrators noticed the thefts of chips and other snacks when the collections in the machine's cashbox didn't match up with the amount of snacks that had been removed. They have decided to remove the machine, according to AP.

Beware: 4 Phone Interview Questions
Upload your resume
and have employers find you!
July 12, 2013
By Bob McIntosh, Career Trainer
Yesterday I spoke with a
job seeker
who had an hour and a half telephone
. It seemed to my job seeker as if it were a preamble to a job offer. Sight unseen, he was invited to visit the company in Alabama all expenses paid.
If you think a telephone interview isn't a real interview, you're sadly mistaken. Telephone interviews are generally thought of as a screening device, but they carry a lot of weight and, in some cases, they're full-fledged interviews. Often times, job seekers don't take the telephone interview seriously, and this is a huge mistake.
This is the type of response I sometimes get from my workshop attendees when they tell me they have a telephone interview, "It's just a telephone interview. I hope I get a face-to-face." I tell them to prepare as hard as they would for a personal interview. Don't get caught off guard.
Yes, the face-to-face is the next step, but you can't get there without impressing the interviewer on the other end of the phone, whether she's a recruiter, hiring manager, HR, or even the owner of a company. Generally, the interviewer is trying to obtain four bits of information from you -- areas to which you can respond well or fail.
1. Do you have the skills and experience to do the job?
The first of the interviewer's interests is one of the easiest to meet. For example, let's say that you've applied for a medical staff credentialing manager position that's "perfect" for you; you have experience and accomplishments required of a strong medical staff credentialing manager. Your organization and management skills are above reproach, demonstrated by successfully monitoring the verification process for medical staff incumbents. In addition, you completed
and other employee verifications and ensured that the organization and staff are in accordance with staff by-laws,
industry trends
and standard credentialing procedures.
2. Are you motivated and well liked?
Your former colleagues describe you as amiable, extremely goal oriented, and one who exudes enthusiasm. The last quality shows motivation and will carry over nicely to your work for the
next employer
. You've done your research and have decided that this is the organization you want to work for; it's on your "A" list.
When the interviewer asks why you want to work for the company, you gush with excitement and feel a bit awkward telling her you love the responsibilities set forth in the
description. But your enthusiasm for the job and company is well noted by the employer. Further, through your networking, you've learned about the work culture, including the management team. You tell her it sounds a lot like your former employer and will be a great fit.
3. Why did you leave your last company?
This one is tough for you, because even though you were laid off, you feel a bit insecure and wonder if you were to blame. Your company was acquired and there would be duplication within your department that exists for the company that bought yours. You keep this answer brief, 15 seconds and there are no follow-up questions. You're doing great so far.
4. What is your salary expectation?
"So, what do you want?" The question hits you like a brick. "Excuse me," you say. "What do you expect for salary? What will it take to get you to the next step?" the interviewer says. Your mind goes blank. You've been instructed to handle the question in this order:
Try to deflect the question.
If this doesn't work, ask for their range.
And if this doesn't work, give them your range.
When all else fails, you cite an exact figure based on your online research and networking.
You've forgotten everything your job coach told you and blurt out an exact figure. "At my last job I made $72,000." But this isn't the question asked. The interviewer wants you to tell her what you expect for salary, not what you made at your last company. "Is this what you had in mind?" you timidly say.
There's a pause at the other end, and finally the voice thanks you for your time. She tells you if you're suitable for an interview at the company, you'll be notified within a week. She says it looks promising for you.
But you know right then that the position hangs in the balance. You've spoken first and within 10 seconds said something you can't take back. You were prepared, but not prepared enough. You didn't think this interview counted; you'd do better at the face-to-face, if you get there.

Romain Grosjean and Lotus F1 Team reached the chequered flag for the first time in 2014 at Sepang, when the Frenchman overcame a loss of downforce to win an entertaining duel for eleventh place with former team-mate Kimi Räikkönen. Now the aim is to do better in Bahrain's inaugural F1 night race.
What are your thoughts looking ahead to Bahrain?
It's a good track and I'm happy to go back there. I'm especially looking forward to the first night race at a circuit I like. Twice I've raced there in Formula 1 and twice I've been on the podium. So that's a good record! We were not very successful in the pre-season tests, but hopefully there will be some more updates and performance from our side. I'm sure everyone is going to work hard even though there are just a few days before Bahrain. The race finish at Sepang is a big encouragement. No matter what the challenge, we are aiming for podiums and strong performances wherever we go.
What do you like about the Bahrain track?
On paper it is not the most amazing circuit, but when you drive it's pretty cool. I like the long straights followed by the hairpins and then the twisty middle section with a lot of G-force which makes it exciting. It gives the driver plenty to do behind the wheel and it gives you quite a lot to do in the debrief as well. It's always rewarding when you balance all the different demands on the car to get the lap as fast as possible.
How important for progress is the mileage attained in Malaysia?
It is essential. To make major progress we need more days like Saturday and Sunday in Malaysia, where we learned a lot about the car. There are some encouraging signs. We know we have a lot of work ahead, but we also know which areas to work on. We will try new things in Bahrain and I'm confident the car will be better.
How did it feel to reach the chequered flag in Malaysia?
Finishing the race was our first objective and then we wanted to see where we were with our car. It's not perfect yet but it's good to be where we are at this stage. I had a big loss of downforce around eight laps from the end which made things difficult, especially when I had to defend. Without that issue, I'm sure we could have finished higher. It was a good battle with Kimi. I kept remembering our past battles to make sure he couldn't go through!
What are the current generation cars like to race?
I would say they are early in their development and we're still some way from where we want to be in terms of performance. At the moment there is a lot of management going on in the cockpit and we'll develop a better understanding and strategies of how to approach the race. Certainly, we've only completed one race so there's lots more to come.
Do you think the night race will make much difference in Bahrain?
It means a later start, and if my calculations of how the day schedule runs are right, it could mean a larger window for sleep which is always welcome! In terms of at the track, every year we have had hot temperatures and a lot of sun which made tyre degradation quite high. Temperatures will clearly be lower at night and we'll have to see how that changes grip and degradation. I don't know if being at night will make much difference to the results, but it will certainly be an exciting event visually. It is also the tenth anniversary of the race so I'm sure they will put on a good show.
Why has Bahrain been so kind to you in the past?
I wouldn't say it's been exactly kind, but certainly we've been able to perform well there in the past. It's a track I knew from before Formula 1 and it has characteristics that I like in a circuit; some big braking into certain corners, some good change of direction with the double-left in the middle of the racetrack and it all flows quite nicely. With the E20 and E21 we were able to take advantage of the car's good balance and kindness to tyres. It's early to say how the E22 will perform, but we head there with a positive frame of mind.
With the first two races of the season not quite going to plan, Pastor Maldonado looks forward to the challenge of one of the toughest races of the season.
What do you think of the Bahrain International Circuit?
Bahrain is a good circuit. We've been there in the pre-season and I think all the teams will be happy to return, especially for the weather and the type of track. I would say it is a 'complete' circuit because it has a mix of high, medium and low speed turns, plus good sequences of corners. So it's a good venue to test at, which is exactly what we need to evaluate our new developments. The facilities for the teams are great as well.
Malaysia then Bahrain, do you enjoy racing in the heat?
To be honest they are not my favourite conditions, but it's the same for everyone so I'm not complaining. When the visor goes down it doesn't matter. You just focus on driving.
How important has the track time been during the Malaysian weekend?
It's the most important thing. More mileage with the car means the engineers can increasingly focus on performance. Clearly reliability is still not 100 percent, partly because of our late testing debut with the car, but we have fixed many problems and that enables us to turn more attention to performance.
How frustrating was it to suffer from issues every day of the race weekend?
Very, of course! I'm here to race so you never want to be sat in the garage when the car should be out on track. I had more than my fair share of unreliability in Malaysia, but every time we expose a problem it means we have something to fix and we take a step forwards. There were good positives in Sepang. I did get some good laps and I can feel that the E22 is a proper race car. A race car that still needs quite a lot of work, but still a race car with great potential. We saw that Romain completed a race distance, which is a great positive. We also saw our rivals having problems, showing that we are not alone with the challenges of these very different new cars.
How would you sum up Sunday at Sepang?
With Bianchi I just felt an impact at the back of the car which spun me around. But from the start we were losing a lot of power which meant I had to retire in order to protect the engine. Despite that, the weekend was clearly a step forwards. Since the Saturday, we were able to run far more with the car and Romain was able to finish the race. We're not the only ones with issues so early in the season. This is all related to the complex packages in the car, but we learnt a lot and will make progress for Bahrain.
What do you want from the Bahrain Grand Prix weekend?
Good reliable laps in the car would be the starting point. This will allow us to understand the car's performance and where we can improve it. It will allow me to give feedback to my engineers and understand the challenges of driving the latest generation car. We can also work on understanding the tyres better as they are different this year, and the tyres are always an area where performance gains can be made.
Bahrain will be a night race for the first time, will that mean any special changes?
We will probably need to approach Bahrain a little differently technically now, in terms of tyre pressures and set-up. Otherwise we will treat it much like any other race and obviously we have experience from night events in Singapore and Abu Dhabi. I'm definitely looking forward to it though. It's the first time at night in Bahrain so something new for us all to discover.

Lance Armstrong Oprah interview to span over two nights
(Yahoo!) - Everyone's buzzing online over Lance Armstrong's huge sit-down interview with Oprah that begins airing this week. Winfrey announced Tuesday morning that she got so much great material from the disgraced athlete that the interview would now run over two nights, Thursday and Friday on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).
Winfrey herself immediately began teasing her legion of followers about what they could expect. Right after the interview concluded on Tuesday at Armstrong's Austin, Texas, home, she tweeted, "Just wrapped with @lancearmstrong More than 2 1/2 hours. He came READY!"
Winfrey made an appearance on Tuesday morning on best friend Gayle King's morning show, "CBS This Morning," to preview the one-on-one with Armstrong. "The entire interview was difficult," she explained. Armstrong "did not come clean in the manner that I expected," and continued that this was "surprising to me ... my team, all of us in the room ... I feel that he answered the questions in a way that he was ready."
"A couple of times he was emotional … Emotional doesn't begin to describe the intensity of the difficulty that I think he experienced in talking about some of these things," Winfrey continued. "All of the people who are wondering if he actually goes there ... I think that you will come away too understanding that he brought it, he really did."
Winfrey also went into detail about how she extended her vacation in Maui to meet with Armstrong and negotiate the interview. "I stayed over [in Hawaii] an extra two days in order to accommodate his schedule and he came to visit me in Maui," she said. She went on to explain that she went so far as "clearing out" her house of guests and sending car services with unidentified drivers to pick Armstrong up so that the activity wouldn't be recognized as being associated with the talk show queen.
And the Yahoo! searches show that interest in Winfrey and Armstrong are through the roof. Searches on Armstrong are up 371% on Monday alone.

After having their self-titled album debut at the top of the UK Albums Chart this fall, The 1975 have now brought their success across the pond to America. Their single "Chocolate" has been climbing the charts, and the guys aren't stopping there.
The band's own Matthew Healy tells iHeartRadio that the album is a "combination of material we'd work on for several years." He adds, "That album is just a scrapbook of ideas and conversations and situations, It's very much a testament to a kind of situation perspective of somebody's adolescence, my adolescence, and it's everything that I am. Everything that I was up until then."
The band performed on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" late last year, and Matthew tells iHeartRadio, " It was cool. It was really good. It's really weird doing those kinds of things, even in the U.K. You grow up watching shows like that."
Matthew Healy stopped by the iHeartRadio Studios when the band was in New York recently, where he talked to us about everything from robbing banks to girls to what chocolate really smells like. Get to know Matthew in offBEAT below.
What happened in 1975?
Lots of stuff. Thriller in Manilla which was Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali. The Watergate scandal, those are American things. Margaret Thatcher came into power in the U.K., that was a big deal. I only really know these things after naming the band 1975; it doesn't really have any relevance to us, but yeah I've become slightly informed of that year and what's happened.
What does chocolate smell like?
I suppose it depends what metaphor you're using it for. I mean – chocolate for us, like the song "Chocolate" is really a kind of metaphor. It's about relationships between small town kids, counter culture and small town police, and the boredom that ensues between both of them. Chocolate's kind of a metaphor for anything really but I think a lot of people have a pretty good understanding of what it smells like to us anyway.
Do you guys have a favorite kind of chocolate?
Well European chocolate I mean – there's a lot of food in America that we love but British and European chocolate is the way for, galaxy. Because your country [America] is too hot, everything melts. You have to put stuff in the chocolate to stop it from melting. Where as we just have good milk chocolate all the time.
What makes girls "just girls?"
Well I suppose kind of that line really flipping, you know the "Just Girls," it's kind of emphasizing the fact that that's not really how I feel. I have to convince myself from time [to time] stop worrying, it's just girls. I think girls are a nightmare. Girls have always been the pain of my life and also the one thing that inspires me the most. I don't know what it is but I think the song "Girls" is kind of just another story in the facet of my obsession with femininity really.
When do you feel pressure?
I feel pressure all the time. I feel quite exposed quite a lot, I'm very honest. I don't really say anything that I don't mean or I don't feel so it leaves me quite open to get criticized. I feel a lot of pressure from the industry but I suppose you've just got to ignore it.
If you were a robber what would you steal?
I'd be a bank robber, yeah. If you're gonna be a robber be a bank robber surely. That's where the money's at. That's where the excitement's at. And you can do loads of kind of inside job kind of plans. That's what I'd be up for doing if I was a real robber.
What's in your city?
A lot of rain. That's London now, I suppose my city. So every type of person in the world is in my city. I love London.
When is it time to settle down?
Not for a while with us. I think we're on tour the next 18 months, so we've been on tour for a year. It's gonna be two and a half years of touring and I think the first time we settle down is when we start making the next record which will be January of next year. So let's say January.
What is the most awkward encounter you've ever had?
It's been quite a lot this year. When I met David Byrne from Talking Heads. I thought I'd be really really cool in front of them, and I thought I'd express that he'd inspired me, and I'd now become an artist who was doing well. I thought I'd be able to explain that to him. But he walked passed me and I was eating like loads of sweets and candy. I just dropped on the floor and went "oh, sorry" and that was it. I didn't get to even talk to him at all, that was quite embarrassing.
When do you talk so loud?
All the time. That song's really just about me being able to utilize the way I talk to influence people as opposed to actually what I'm saying. It's about the utilization, the vocabulary, and influence that kind of overrides sometimes whether I'm in the right. So I talk loud in that regards all the time, that's what the song's about.
What is with the all caps in your social media, and on your website? And no punctuation?
I just did it the first tweet we did. Everything that we do we like to offset things from reality a little bit and just oppose it, and try and kind of fight against the normalities that you find in places like the internet and stuff like that. So I think the space is just another way of us kind of making things slightly removed from reality, so we don't have to be so exposed as individuals, that's where the slashes come from.

Tom features on new charity single
Tom is the guest vocalist on a new charity single, Same Heart by Dutch-American singer-songwriter Laura Jansen, which is the theme song of Dutch radio station 3FM's Serious Request 2012 campaign.
All proceeds generated from sales of the track will go to the campaign, which is focusing on the fight against infant mortality. You can buy it from iTunes worldwide here (we're told it should be added to the UK iTunes Store soon).
Here's a video of Laura and Tom discussing the track...

@AnnetteM I was just stating that Tom has never been this fit before, he was always having these 'cute cheeks' but now they're gone, we see a perfect jaw line and he looks like a true gentleman.
Video not available in Canada. :(
it's a great song. The two voices mix well. And it's for a good cause. Thank you for helping out.
Our boys are example of engagement in humanitarian causes. The solidarity will be the main rule for the survival of all living beings in the future. Congratulations guys!
Una canzone dolcissima ed espressiva: bravissimi Tom Chaplin e Laura Jansen, le vostre voci insieme stanno benissimo e rendono questo brano molto armonioso, sono contenta di questa vostra iniziativa di beneficenza, siete veramente degni di lode!!! Anch'io questa settimana con i miei alunni della classe ad indirizzo musicale avremo di sera un concerto in un teatro per la beneficenza Theleton, spero che vada tutto bene!!! Un abbraccio forte a tutta la band da Sabrina from Catania!!!
This is so wonderful. And Tom is perfect just as he always was.
The player does not work for the US!!!!
Wonderful duet! Didn't expect much out of it when I heard about it for the first time. But Tom sounds amazing on this track and Laura's got a lovely voice too.
When can you buy this on uk Itunes because I couldn't buy it on the international itunes?
Congratulations! I love it! Your two voices go so well together. Lovely song. XXX Simona
:D Thomas, kapan kau akan merilis album solomu itu??
KEANE! I was looking up a lot of your old, lost songs back from the 90's and I heard a snippet of a song called Melodrama (I think), and it sounded so good! You guys should really release a CD full of old recordings of yours. I know myself, and probably many other fans would buy it. Seriously I just want to listen to it and its killing me not being able to! Haha :)
The duet is really amazing, Tom is singing better and better. Beijos, Regina.
This is such a great song. I listen to it all the time, especially when I want to jam in the car! I have been waiting for Tom to do a duet with a female singer forever! Keep it up, your voice is too beautiful!
Extraño y diferente, pero siempres es tan extraordinario solamente escuchand la voz de TOM, es realmente sorprendente lo que pueden hacer las dos voces!!!
Great duet, voices go together very well.
It's a great song! The duet turned out amazing, the two voices go so well together...and Tom is always brilliant, his voice is so pure and beautiful, he sings in that very unique and magical way of his...just amazing! Congratulations and thank you for joining such a great cause! xxx
Awesome! Great!
HI TOMY **Nothing surprises me I'm a hundred percent with you I know that you do what your heart tells you help others is just wonderful )your two voices are very well together !! LOT OF LOVE
Beautiful Lyrics, encanthed video, lovely voices and a great charity single ...I loving Same Heart ♥♥
Great song for a good cause.
i fell in love with the song, it's just so good! i'm so buying it!
This song is really good, its on repeat right now! Both voices blend beautifully and Tom... well.. his voice is just always amazing!!
Hummingbird - Didn't think that Tom had put on weight ? Strange to be commenting on weight isn't it? Instead of his amazing singing!
AnnetteM, I'm taking a wild guess here but I suspect that the first comment is referring to the fact that Tom has indeed lost a lot of weight. Isa, the first comment did not at all imply that Tom is too skinny.
Have to agree with ISA what is that first comment about? And when is this song gonna be on english itunes?
ISA, from Brasil, Sao Paulo *** I liked the song, much when it begins than when it develops, but it´s a lovely song and I will try to have it. I do liked the video, I do prefer videos like that than those ones that tries "to tell a story". Well, just my point of view and also I do not agree, with all respect, with the first comment, I do prefer Tommy not too skinny, ha ha! Just my point o view, of course. Thank you for sharing this! Lots of love to my favourite band! XXXXX
Beautiful song!!! Tom´s voice is a magic...
Class - what a beautiful song. And yeah what has happened to heart and soul in music nowadays? Beautiful singing from Tom and I love Laura's song. I'm now off to Itunes!
What a wonderful song! It touches me deep inside. Tom, your voice is so beautiful, it's a gift given by God. Take care!
Tom has lost so much weight lol, he looks handsome.

Twenty years ago, a boy named Jack Sawyer traveled to a parallel universe called the Territories to save his mother and her "Twinner" from an agonizing death that would have brought cataclysm to the other world. Now Jack is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in the nearly nonexistent hamlet of Tamarack, Wisconsin. He has no recollection of his adventures in the Territories, and he was compelled to leave the police force when a happenstance event threatened to awaken those long suppressed and dangerous memories.
When a series of gruesome murders occur in western Wisconsin that are reminiscent of those committed several decades earlier, Jack's buddy, the local chief of police, begs Jack to help find the killer. But are these new killings merely the work of a disturbed individual, or has a mysterious and malignant force been unleashed in this quiet town? What causes Jack's inexplicable waking dreams - if that is what they are - of robins' eggs and red feathers? As these cryptic messages becomes impossible to ignore, Jack is drawn back to the Territories and to his own hidden past.

"Intelligent…Suspenseful" (Wall Street Journal)
"Overflows with dark wit…" (New York Times Book Review)
"Two master craftsmen, each at the top of his game" (Washington Post)
Long haul commuter. Audiobooks keep me from causing serious physical harm to my fellow commuters. Bless you, Audible!
"Jack Sawyer delivers"
Maybe it was during the time that I fell out of love with Stephen King. Maybe there were things in my own life that kept me from this book. Maybe it was Ka. Who knows? I've waited 10 years to enjoy this book.
I read and loved The Talisman when it came out but when this came out, I shunned it for some unknown reason. I bought it and it sat on my shelf, mocking me for years until I gave it away in a frenzy of hardback reduction that I have come to regret for many reasons. Maybe it was The Black House itself hiding itself from me.
Anyway. This is a great continuation of the Talisman and I'm really glad that I finished the Dark Tower series in the intervening years (Nudge, wink).
"A great sequel"
I loved the fact that we follow up on our hero Jack Sawyer. He is grown into an adult, but he is still the sensitive boy/man that you came to love in the Talisman. Also, if you are a true King fan, it does not hurt that we see a bit of the Dark Tower story as well.
"Better than Talisman, but not by much"
I already did - The Talisman and Dark Tower Books
I listened to The Talisman and I thought Black House was a little better, but not by much. Only because with the main character being an adult rather than a child, I think King/Straub could utilize mature themes.
Probably the hedge clipper scene at the retirement home.
"Black House" seemed to be a very different kind of story than "The Talisman". In some ways I probably preferred BH over Talisman, but overall I was pretty underwhelmed by both stories. Obviously the only common denominator between the two was the main character – Jack Sawyer, only in BH Jack is an adult rather than a child which I think enabled the writers to bring mature elements into the story.

The supporting cast was better in BH, only because they didn't seem like cartoon characters or even characterchures like in Talisman. I also like the fact that King & Straub steered clear of the animal-characters, which was something I didn't care for in Talisman.

The plot of the book was enjoyable, taking more of a mystery approach rather than sci-fi; however once the sci-fi elements were introduced, the mystery vibe began to lose it's appeal – almost surrendering the credibility of the overall story. I liked that BH had more gore and the subject matter was adult orientated.

My main complaint of BH was probably the narrative and delivery approach for how the story was told. I did not like to "float over here" and "let us drift away from there". I also found it hard to believe that a group of "hard core bikers" (one of which is a former surgeon, because there's so many surgeons that leave the medical field to pursue a life of biker-ing, right?) would immediately befriend an out-of-town cop to help solve a series of murders. The romance between Jack and Sophie seemed a little out-of-place as well, if not forced. Maybe it was an after thought that randomly made it's way into the story...who knows?

Altogether BH was worth reading if you've already read the Talisman; however I doubt I'd revisit either book again. I was not impressed or greatly entertained by BH; however it's worth a read if you're a fan of King's Dark Tower books. There are a few bread crumbs in BH that DT fans will enjoy, but I'm not sure that it added a whole lot to the DT universe.

Pros: Dark Tower elements and a decent mystery story (less the sci-fi elements).
Cons: Clear motives for the killer would've been nice and the friendship between Henry & Jack should've been better organized and developed, as well as the romance between Jack & Sophie.
Bottom line: So-so story, not too bad but not too great.
"A Must-Read for Dark Tower Fans!"
This is an engaging story, with a reader whose voice perfectly fits the story. I would definitely read this again.
My favorite part was when I realized how this story fits into The Dark Tower story and how Jack Sawyer's quest was going to aid Roland in his.
It's a toss-up. I loved his voice for the biker, Beezer, but his voice for the killer was spot on as well. The former was very creepy, as it should have been.
As a big fan of the Dark Tower, I was shocked to see how many Dark Tower references and tie-in plot points there were between the two stories. Why have I not heard of this book before?!? I would have read it a long time ago if I had known about all the tie-ins. Besides the Dark Tower points though, this was a great book all by itself. Excellent characters, extremely creepy villains, and an ending that leaves you wanting more. This just made it to the top of my non-Dark Tower Stephen King books. An excellent read!
I love to read, and now that I have finally discovered audio books, I also love to listen. Books help me manage my bipolar disorder.
"Excellent reader"
Stephen King is such a good storyteller. Frank Muller read so well I forgot the story was being narrated; he has a great range as to what voices he uses.
"Fantastically Intrancing"
That would have to be a yes, for this story is moving and deep and full of hidden treasures.
The Talisman, Read to find out :)
Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer getting shot.
We all serve the beam in one way or another.
"Laurels Didn't Come Thru!"
King, as in others of his books, has resurrected former story lines that reinserting them in The Black House become tiring and unimaginative. The beginnings are intriguing and grab your attention but then he picks up a scent from the past and there he goes off and running, ho-hum. This was one of those - Been there, done that.
"Delightful detective story with a magical twist!"
I am an audio listener by trade.
Jack of course, he is the main man, super talented and powerful in ways that surprise the reader.
Frank Muller was spectacular in the Talisman and he brings the same energy here. His performance of the new characters such as the "Fisherman" and "Mr. Munshun" in a sort of a Red Skelton mumbling jumble made me laugh out loud.
There are several funny parts that made me laugh especially when the Biker gang (Thunder Five) dudes made sharp cracks. Yes I did get misty there was a tremendous friendship between Jack Sawyer and Henry Leyden and some real sadness surrounding the murders of the children.
There was a very large character set here, but as most "constant readers" know it is handled with extreme expertise. The thing about this book that grabbed me the most was that it quickly became a fascinating murder-mystery novel. There was a the reluctant Jack Sawyer that had purportedly been a "superstar detective" but retired from the LAPD at the young age of 31. So for about 1/4 of the book the reader has no idea just how good he really is at it. Now throw in the element of the supernatural where King and Straub really get cranked up. And of course we know from the Talisman that Jack Sawyer has a little bit of experience in this area. This one will make you want to listen till the end!
Short and sweet reviews, Allentown pa
"Jack sawyer"
Great adventure, never gets dull and the fantasy is great
Muller again does a great job
Thunder 5 approaching blackhouse
He's just better, and does character voices well
No way
These books are 28hrs or so long
If they did an abridged version I would hate them for it
Must buy the talisman 1st
Not having read the DT books might confuse some people, or make them want to read them also
"Too Loooooong"
It was way too long and much of the time was wasted for example the descriptions of the houses, people, and unnecessary side stories made me say a few times, "get on with it already!" But I am King fan so I braved it out and the last 1/4 of the book redeemed the first slow part. better have a lot of time if your going to listen to this one.
Henry is very cool
He has a distinct style that takes getting used to
Ryan Gosling as Jack, George Clooney as Henry,

LONG BEACH — A third man has died from injuries he suffered in a traffic accident that instantly killed two others Saturday as their truck slammed into a San Diego (405) Freeway overpass, police said Monday.
Terrence Harris, a 36-year-old Long Beach resident, was in the front seat of the truck when the accident occured. He had to be extracted from the vehicle was transported to a local hospital in critical condition following the 6:22 p.m. accident Saturday, according to Long Beach Police Department spokesman Sgt. Aaron Eaton.
Harris later died of his injuries, Eaton said.
Traffic accident investigators, in a preliminary finding, believe the driver of the 2005 Dodge Ram was going too fast for the rainy conditions, prompting the truck to slide in a hydroplane spin in the northbound Redondo Avenue lanes, said Eaton.
The driver, 36-year-old Mark Martineau of Seal Beach, was pronounced dead at the scene, Eaton added. A rear passenger, 54-year-old Richard McAleavey of Long Beach, was also killed, the spokesman said, adding the man wasn't wearing a seat belt.
Witnesses told officers that prior to the accident it was raining and the roadways were filled with water.
The preliminary investigation determined that the driver had initiated a lane change from the No. 1 lane to the No. 2 lane, when he lost control of the truck, causing it to spin onto the sidewalk, Eaton said.
The truck struck the concrete support pillar for the freeway overpass.
"Investigators believe the driver lost control of the steering as a result of excessive speed for the rainy conditions, and this caused the truck to hydroplane," Eaton said.
Anyone with information regarding this collision is asked to contact Long Beach Police Accident Investigations Detective Richard Birdsall at 562-570-7355.

If Murdoch Is Serious About Getting "Beyond Politics" On Immigration, He Should Start With Fox News
Today, News Corp. chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch will be joining New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to host pro-immigration forums for the purpose of getting "beyond politics and antiquated notions about immigration." Perhaps he should start with the anti-immigrant attitudes that pervade the channel his company operates, Fox News.
Politico reports [1] that Murdoch stated in a press release promoting the forums:
"America is a great nation built on the hard work and ingenuity of immigrants, and our economic prosperity will depend upon our ability to unleash innovation and compete in the global marketplace," said Rupert Murdoch. "Unfortunately, Washington has failed to enact immigration policies that acknowledge the role of immigrants in our economic successes, or consistently support the employment needs of America's businesses. We have to get beyond politics and antiquated notions about immigration if we are serious about attracting and retaining the best talent in America."
If Murdoch really wants to "get beyond politics and antiquated notions" on immigration, he should start with a network his company owns, Fox News. Fox is a hotbed of anti-immigrant rhetoric [2], and it serves as a friendly platform for extremist anti-immigration groups. The vast majority [3] of guests who speak about immigration on Fox are anti-immigrant.
Fox is an unabashed promoter [4] of the kind of "politics and antiquated notions about immigration" Murdoch claims to oppose.
Of course, fixing a cable news channel doesn't offer quite the glamor or promotional pop as taking part in a forum to fret about attitudes that Murdoch's own employees are being paid to stir up.

YUCAIPA - Authorities were searching for a man who reportedly shot at a Yucaipa sheriff's deputy Friday morning while she attempted to remove an "unwanted subject" at a residence.
Brian David Forrett, 52, reportedly shot at the female deputy late Friday morning, then fled in a white Buick.
The female deputy was not injured, but it was unclear if the gunman who reportedly shot at the deputy first and fled in a vehicle was injured, Sheriff's Cpl. Randy Naquin said.
Authorities received a call from a home in the 11900 block of Second Street around 11:30 a.m.
The caller said there was a man at the home and the caller wanted him off the property, Naquin said.
"When the deputy arrived (she) made contact with the suspect, and after only a couple of minutes shots were fired," Naquin said. "The suspect fired, the deputy fired, and the suspect then fled the scene."
About a dozen yellow evidence markers littered the front yard of the home where the shooting reportedly took place as well as a few scattered markers on Second Street.
A window on the deputy's patrol car was blown out in the gunfight, Naquin said.
Forrett reportedly jumped into the white Buick, reversed and rammed the deputy's vehicle, according to a news release.
"The deputy attempted following the vehicle but wound up losing it fairly quickly," Naquin said.
As of 6 p.m., Forrett, whose last known address was in Riverside, had not been apprehended.
"It was scary," said Reina Gutierrez, 21, whose home was less than a block from the shooting.
"I heard like 15 shots and then I told my mom to call 911," she said as she stood in front of her Second Street home along with 12-year-old Fernanda Garcia.
Fernanda was walking home from school when she came upon the closed-down road.
"They won't let me down there," said the girl. "I just want to get home."
Neighbors reported seeing one man being taken from the home and placed into the back of a patrol unit. It was not clear who that person was or if he was arrested. Authorities at the scene didn't release much information stating the shooting was still an active investigation.
A portion of Second Street between Cedar and Beech streets was shut down for hours as detectives and forensic teams gathered information and interviewed some of the people who were still inside the Second Street home.
Jerry Barnes, a neighbor who lives across the street from the home where the shooting took place, said the house is always active at night when he usually goes to bed. Barnes said he moved to the area about a year ago and was out fishing during the time the shooting occurred.
"I'm not used to this," said Gutierrez, who moved to the area in December. "It's almost always quiet here so far. I was just really scared and surprised by all this."
Forrett is described as standing about 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing about 186 pounds with brown and gray hair and a large mustache, officials said. He was last seen driving a white Buick with rear end damage, a damaged windshield and California license plate 6SHF401.
Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Detective Darrin Taylor at 909-790-3105 or sheriff's dispatch at 909-387-8313.

By Attorney General Roy Cooper
We appreciate and respect the sacrifices that members of our military and their families make for our country, but unfortunately there are some people who try to take advantage of our men and women in uniform. The Second Annual Military Consumer Protection Day is July 16 and my office is joining with government organizations and businesses across the country to raise awareness about problems that target military consumers.
Men and women currently serving in our Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard, National Guard and Reserves are often young, away from home for the first time and earning their first steady paycheck. Unfortunately, this can make them a prime target for scams and frauds.
Here are some of the most common consumer problems that military personnel face:
Identity Theft
Active duty military members deployed overseas are often vulnerable to identity theft since it is more difficult for them to monitor their credit. One way to protect yourself is to put a free active duty alert or security freeze on your credit to help make sure no one takes advantage of you when you are out of the country. These active duty alerts last for a year and require businesses to verify your identity before they issue new credit in your name. You can designate a personal representative, such as a spouse, who can verify your identify or remove the active duty alert while you're away if needed.
Credit Cards and Loans
Military members can also be the target of unfair lending practices. Be wary of businesses that promise easy access to loans and credit cards even if you have bad credit. Many of these businesses will offer to help you secure a loan for an upfront fee, which is illegal in North Carolina. While quick access to short term loans may seem like a great idea, all too often military members get cheated by high interest rates and fees or downright fraud.
Used Cars
Military members should be especially careful when buying a car. Shady dealers will sometimes push overpriced used cars on unsuspecting service members, or load up the financing on a new car with expensive options you don't really need like extended warranties and extra insurance.
One common auto scam, called the Yo-Yo, happens when an unscrupulous car dealer calls a couple days after completing a sale and claims the financing has fallen through. The salesman will try to squeeze more money out of the car buyer by saying you need to pay more cash to keep the car or renegotiate the loan with a less favorable interest rate. If you refuse, you may find your car blocked in on the sales lot or be told that your trade-in vehicle has already been sold. In some cases the dealer may even refuse to refund your down payment.
However, in North Carolina you have a legal right to request that the original deal be "unwound" if you buy a car and the financing falls through, with all of your money refunded.
To avoid problems that target military consumers:

Tajh Boyd From Clemson Earns Second Straight Manning Player of the Week Honor
Thursday, September 29, 2011
For the second week in a row, Tajh Boyd, the sophomore quarterback from No. 13 Clemson, has been selected as the Manning Award Player of the Week. Boyd earns the honor over seven other Manning Award Stars of the Week after coming from behind to pass Ball State quarterback Keith Wenning in the Allstate Sugar Bowl's Facebook contest.
