Plot Summary: Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Dunwoody Became the first female four-star general

Fri, Nov 14, 2008

1 Comment

WASHINGTON (AP) - A former Fort Sill  Army soldier is around to make military history.

At a Pentagon promotion ceremony today Ann Dunwoody  became a four-star general - the first woman to reach that level in the U.S. military.

And later at Fort Belvoir, Va., she’ll be sworn in as commander of the Army Material Command which is responsible for equipping, outfitting and equipping all soldiers.

She was named by President George W. Bush in June for promotion to four-star rank and her nomination was confirmed by the Senate in July.

Dunwoody received her Army commission after graduating from the State University of New York in 1975 and her first assignment was to Fort Sill as supply platoon leader in June 1976.

She remained at Sill in various positions until she was sent to quartermaster officer school at Fort Lee, Va., in 1980.

$275K Dirty Dancing Payout for Naughty Dancer

Fri, Nov 14, 2008

1 Comment

The world is becoming an unbelievable place. A woman is  being rewarded $275,000 for simulating sex in a public community center.

Rebecca Willis, who was 56-years-old at the time, has been offered $275k to never return to the Marshall Depot Community Center in N.C. - and you’re never going to believe why.

Willis was seen at the center wearing a skirt so short, her underwear was exposed as she gyrated her hips and dirty-danced in public.

Local folks obviously became very uncomfortable when Willis would be seen simulating sex with her dance moves - and after several complaints, the town banned her from the center for life.

Now, instead of lifting the hefty, lifetime ban, Rebecca Willis will receive a $275000 payout for nasty dancing in a public place that families likely visit.

Rebecca thinks the town should allow ‘free expression’. Right.

Obama’s Grandmother Dies on Eve of Election

Barack Obama’s maternal grandmother — Madelyn Dunham — died in her home Monday after a prolonged battle with cancer.

The Democratic presidential candidate announced the news in a joint statement with his sister Maya Soetoro-Ng.

“She was the cornerstone of our family, and a woman of extraordinary accomplishment, strength, and humility. She was the person who encouraged and allowed us to take chances,” the statement said.

The candidate learned of her death Monday morning while he was campaigning in Jacksonville, Fla. He planned to go ahead with campaign appearances.

Late last month, Obama took a break from campaigning and flew to Hawaii to be with the 86-year-old Dunham.

Obama said the decision to go to Hawaii was easy to make, telling CBS that he “got there too late” when his mother died of ovarian cancer in 1995 at 53, and wanted to make sure “that I don’t make the same mistake twice.”

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
