  5. Recently, during a question and answer session with the UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, a woman asked him what he thought of the Harry Potter books' impact on children's literacy as well as the people who were critical of them. He replied: "The Harry Potter brief in my file is somewhat thin, which only shows that my officials' sense of importance is not what it should be. I was told by someone, however, that in the first chapter of the new book, the Minister of Magic comes out of a fireplace to confront the Prime Minister. I am still searching for the Minister." Taked from mugglenet.com

    NHL works to break ice with fans July 23, 2005 BY JENNIFER JONES Staff Reporter (Chicago Sun-Times) The NHL's Board of Governors voted unanimously Friday to ratify the new collective-bargaining agreement, bringing to an end the 310-day lockout and setting the stage for commissioner Gary Bettman to reintroduce the league to its fans Bettman understood the disappointment fans felt when the lockout led to the cancellation of the 2004-05 season and promised to make it up to them, saying, ''We will do everything in our power to be the best we can be and earn your continued devotion.'' Answering calls to improve the product, Bettman announced a list of rule changes designed to increase offense and excitement, including a shootout to break ties and the allowance of two-line passes. The league also held its draft lottery, with the No. 1 pick and the opportunity to draft phenom Sidney Crosby going to the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Blackhawks will have the seventh pick in the draft, which will be held next Saturday. Hawks owner Bill Wirtz represented his team at a televised event announcing the results of the lottery, and said, ''Justice, justice,'' when it was revealed the Penguins would have the first pick. General manager Dale Tallon did not return calls from the Sun-Times seeking his reaction. The Hawks are holding a news conference Monday regarding their marketing initiatives and are reluctant to address questions on those topics until that time. But potential customers who called the ticket office Friday were told the ticket prices would be the same as they would have been for the 2004-05 season, with a few exceptions for individual tickets that would be designated for situations such as group sales and walk-up sales. In anticipation of the lockout, the Hawks announced they would reduce season-ticket prices for the 2004-05 season by 10 percent while all other ticket prices would remain the same. Asked Friday about the league's plans for ticket prices, Bettman said, ''The clubs are well-connected to their fans. Every club is going to have to revisit its economics in light of the deal. It will sort itself out, but the inflationary pressure has been reduced, and when you look at the prices compared to other sports, they'll be favorably compared.'' Another issue facing the NHL is its television situation. Bettman referenced the league's relationship with NBC, a profit-sharing deal with no guaranteed rights fee, and also said he was confident the league would have a new national cable package in the ''not-too-distant future.'' ESPN declined to pick up its option on the upcoming season and so far has not negotiated a new deal with the league at a lower price. Bettman said the league will provide better access during its television broadcasts: showing more of what happens behind the scenes, putting microphones on players and coaches, offering more interviews during the game, and using a camera that runs along the boards. The season will begin Oct. 5 with all 30 teams playing, and the schedule will have a slightly greater emphasis on rivalries and in-conference play. NHL players will participate in the Olympics in 2006 and 2010, and there will not be an All-Star Game in the years in which there is a break for the Olympics. Bettman also announced the formation of a player-league competition committee and the promotion of Bill Daly from chief legal officer to deputy commissioner. As for those rule changes, a shootout will determine the winner when a regular-season game is tied after a five-minute, four-on-four overtime. Three players from each team will participate, and if the score remains tied after each team takes three shots, the shootout will continue with a sudden-death format. Two-line passes will be allowed, and play will continue if offensive players who preceded the puck into the zone tag up at the blue line. The offensive zones will be bigger, and the goal lines will be closer to the end boards. The size of goalie equipment will be reduced, and goalies will be allowed to play the puck behind the goal line only in a limited area. There will be stricter standards of enforcement of obstruction and interference, among other changes.
  13. Aaaand pictures from GOF, as well as the "cover" picture from Entertainment Weekly. More here
  14. This was posted on The Fashion Spot, and I can't remember ever seeing it before. I think it's part of an editorial but I'll post it here instead.
  15. There's also a lot that Voldemort knows that he found out for himself. It's not like the ritual in the 4th book would have been common knowledge. Though Dumbledore has to blame himself a little for introducing Tom to the wizarding world. You have to think, if he didn't get into magic, would he have used things the muggle way and maybe turned into the next Hitler?
  16. I find most of his stuff to be like that. And compared to other stuff of his that I've seen, Susan's was tame.
  17. I just pretend the Terry Richardson ones don't exist. I hate him as a photographer, so it isn't hard.
  18. Because of all the snape discussion, figured I'd put this up. Scanned from latest Entertainment Weekly, so if anyone wants to pick the whole thing up, it has Harry on the cover (obviously). All the scans can be found at danradcliffe.com. This is just a clip of one of the pages.
  19. From the June 2005 Issue of "Deutsch" Vogue with Naomi Cambpell on the cover. Let me know if you can't see them. I'll upload them to imageshack if that's the case.

    The NHLPA are having a press conference today (1 PM MST, and 4 PM EST) on ESPN (I'm guessing). They agreed to the CBA this morning.

    Brad Pitt

    Brad Pitt Makes First Appearance Since Illness POSTED: 6:12 pm EDT July 20, 2005 A health-looking Brad Pitt in a white jacket and jeans walked on stage to a round of applause at the annual Hollywood Foreign Press luncheon at the Beverly Hills Hotel Wednesday. After giving a quick kiss on the cheek to presenter Emmy Rossum, a still-blonde Pitt happily accepted a $250,000 check for the Film Foundation Inc., which restores old movies. Pretending to steal the check, Brad quipped, "I offer my deepest gratitude to the HFPA!" This was Pitt's first public outing since being discharged from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for viral meningitis one week ago. Pitt avoided the red carpet Wednesday, arriving and leaving the event through a back door.
  23. I didn't get sorted into Slytherin for no reason. And Meghan. Which I think I put in my thread but I can't remember. I know I'm going to be sitting through the fourth movie mourning the loss of Bill. The actor refused to grow a ponytail and just...ugh long rant about that one. I realize that Bill is no Brad Pitt, but he's the COOL BROTHER damnit :|
  24. That would mean they have to be logical. And these people are never logical.
