The House (The Keys to the Kingdom)

The House is a domain that serves as the center of the universe in The Keys to the Kingdom series by Australian author Garth Nix. Anything in creation not in the House, such as earth (the solar system and indeed this universe), is part of the Secondary Realms. The House is divided into seven demesnes; each of which is ruled by a master named for a day of the week, the Trustees, or sometimes the Morrow Days. The demesnes are, in the order Arthur Penhaligon has claimed them: the Lower House, the Far Reaches, the Border Sea, the Great Maze, the Middle House, the Upper House and the Incomparable Gardens.

Description

The House's physical appearance in the Secondary Realms is described as a vast building featuring many different architectural styles, which often appear to be brought together at random. Its physical location differs; Arthur first sees it near his own residence, and his friend Leaf sees it above a hospital. Arthur, Leaf, and Leaf's ally Sylvie are the only mortals shown to see the House, each by a different means: Arthur can see it presumably because he is the Heir of the Architect; Sylvie requires special glasses given to Leaf by the House Sorcerer Dr. Scamandros; and Leaf appears able to see it without aid. It is her belief that she has inherited powers of extrasensory perception from her grandmother, whom she thinks to have been a witch, but this has not been confirmed. A possible alternative suggests that her immersion in the House (which occurred prior to her view of it from outside) enabled her to see it.

The House (1999 film)

The House is a 1999 Chinese film directed by Wang Xiaoshuai. It is rarely, if ever, screened abroad, and remains one of Wang Xiaoshuai's least well-known works outside of China. It is alternatively referred to as Suburban Dreams, Fantasy Garden or Dream House. The film was produced by the Beijing Film Studio and the China Film Group. Wang Xiaoshuai himself considers it one of his most inconsequential efforts to date, to the extent that it has "sunk into oblivion."

Plot

In contrast to Wang's previous films, The House is a family-comedy that follows a young urban married couple as well as their friends, ex-girlfriends, and family. A young couple has recently purchased their dream house and are expecting a baby. One day, while his wife is out of the home, an ex-girlfriend arrives at the door drenched from rain. She had heard of his wife's pregnancy and had come only to sell the couple insurance. The husband, feeling sympathetic allows her to take a shower in his home.

Suddenly, his in-laws arrive at the home unexpectedly. The husband now has to find a way to get his ex-girlfriend out of the home without his in-laws noticing, and all before his wife returns home.

    Imaani

    Imaani Saleem (born Melanie Crosdale, Born 1972, Derby, England) is an English singer and is best known for representing the Eurovision Song Contest in 1998.

    Career

    In 1998, she entered the A Song For Europe competition to find the UK's song for the Eurovision Song Contest. Her track "Where Are You" was a runaway winner with the British public and was selected to represent the UK. Imaani finished seven points behind the winner Dana International, in second place in the Eurovision Song Contest 1998. Britain has never been so close to winning ever since.

    After its success in the contest, "Where Are You" entered the UK Singles Chart in May 1998, peaking at #15. The track spent more than two months in the chart. Despite this success, her record label EMI decided to cancel the release of her follow-up single "You Got A Way" and parted company with Saleem.

    In 2000, she supplied the lead vocals on Tru Faith & Dub Conspiracy's UK garage cover of Adina Howard's "Freak Like Me". "Freak Like Me" reached No. 12 on the UK Singles Chart. Saleem went on to record with the jazz-funk band, Incognito.

    The House

    by: Ice-T

    You know the house down the street
    Where the kids are
    and every day
    They seem to have a new scar
    Something strange is going on
    and everybody knows
    Doors always shut
    and windows always closed
    The little girl had a burn
    The boy was black and blue
    They said it came from play
    You know that shit ain't true
    The boy's arm's broke
    girl is scared to speak
    Their parents drink all day
    Couple of dead beats
    Some days they go to school,
    and other days they might
    It's hard to stay awake
    after you cry all night
    You see 'em every day
    Tear tracks on their cheeks
    But they will never tell
    It goes on weeks and weeks
    (But what can they do?
    They're only children man!)
    You ain't no fuckin' kid
    Acting like you give a damn!
    Won't someone save these kids
    Do something, call a cop
