Yesterday's Cryptoquip: I ACTUALLY SAW THAT PERSON STEAL THE FRUIT COBBLER, SO ILL PROBABLY TESTIFY AS A PIE-WITNESS. Today's Cryptoquip Clue: K equals H "I'm interested to see what happens with Fox News and phone hacking." Moore said, referring to the News Corp. scandal that has resulted in a number of arrests and high-level resignations within the British section of Rupert Murdoch's empire. "I really can't believe it just happens in Great Britain. Because really, who cares about just hacking phones over there? Michael Moore attacks Fox News for hacking NEW YORK — Michael Moore has taken aim at Fox News for its politics countless times over his long career. But the provocateur filmmaker now believes that the News Corp.-owned cable channel could soon be caught up in something far more nefarious than simple ideological sins. LEGAL McClatchy Tribune "I'll make a prediction about something — I think the phone-hacking thing Murdoch is involved in ... is going to be investigated, and it will be found that it's been going on here too," he said. "I just have a gut feeling." | | 5 | | 2 | | | 1 | | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | 3 | | 4 | 5 | | 6 | 2 | | 7 | | | | | | | | | | 7 | | 9 | | | 4 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | 2 | | | | | 3 | | | 8 | | | 5 | | | 9 | | | | | | | | | | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | | | | | | | | | 9 | 6 | 1 | 7 | | | 5 | | | | 1 | | 8 | | | 7 | | SUDOKU Difficulty Level ★★★ FILM PAGE 4/24 MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE Director James McTeigue, left, discusses a scene with stars Alice Eve and John Cusack on the set of Relativity Media's stylish gothic thriller "The Raven." Critics concerned over new Edgar Allen Poe movie MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE ORLANDO, Fla. — John Cusack has heard the sniping. He's Internet savvy, a big-time Twitter user. So he knew Edgar Allan Poe fanatics were complaining about the movie he was making about the writer. He knows the early reviews of "The Raven," in which he plays the poet/ thriller writer as a haunted man on the trail of a serial killer, haven't been kind. "Poe probably deserved better than this movie which turns his heritage into a sub 'Se7en'-style serial killer thriller," sniffed Britain's Birmingham Post. But Cusack isn't taking that lying down. "Somebody I've read said, 'Oh, he wasn't some heroic man of action.' And I go, 'Oh really? He went to West Point. He was kicked out, but he was there. He got in. And he was a swimmer. It's not a stretch to think of him trying to solve a mystery, a series of crimes. He had an analytical, mathematical mind. You can see that in the writing. He called it 'rationation.' But basically, he invented forensics in his fiction." started. An actor fond of finding the dark side in light characters and bringing lightness to the dark ones, Cusack found Poe to be right up his alley. At 45, Cusack has lived his movie-making life by making more interesting choices than commercial ones. He's just hoping filmgoers get into Poe the way he got into the author of "The Tell-Tale Heart," "The Raven" and "The Cask of Amontillado" — the 19th century author who popularized the short story, invented the thriller, detective fiction and, some say, science fiction. "The Raven," directed by James McTeague ("V For Vendetta"), re-imagines Poe's last days and the mystery surrounding his death. And Cusack is just getting "I loved the conceit, here," Cusack says. "Poe getting caught up in one of his stories, trapped by a fan who is mimicking the murders in his work. "He wrote about gruesome crimes ... And he wrote about people going mad, as in 'The Tell-Tale Heart.'" The movie acknowledges Poe's mental state, but makes note of his scathing wit and wicked wordplay. Turns out those guys on "The Client List" aren't the only ones looking to get busy on Lifetime. Starting Thursday, couples in need of a marital tune-up will be seen challenging themselves to have sex for seven days (or nights) in a row in the aptly titled "7 Days of Sex." Couples challenged to seven days of sex RELATIONSHIPS As we all know by now, "reality" television is all about the challenges and the journeys (though the journeys here don't extend much farther than from the kitchen to the bedroom). McClatchy Tribune Wednesday, April 25th Flashbulb Fires w/ Heartscane Landbreak These seven-day challenges some have extended them to 30 days, or even to 365 have become popular in recent years in some churches looking to stress the joys of lifetime commitment. And there are at least a couple of how-to books out for people who need help grasping the concept.
