Book Launch

In PoA Hermoine gets a cat known as Crookshanks
Crookshanks was around thirteen years old when purchased from Diagon Alley
She knew straight away that Scabbers was reall Peter Pettigrew, She helped Harry alot and she took an immediate liking to Sirius
Before the launch of the last book many fans thought that Crookshanks would play an important role

Now, in Deathly Hallows; Harry finds a letter from Lily Evans (his mum) to Sirius

The letter says when talking about Baby Harry`s new broom "you know it only rises about two feet off the ground, but he nearly killed the cat and he smashed a horriblle vase Petunia sent me for Christmas" after the letter Harrys thoughts go "They had had a cat … perhaps it had perished, like his parents at Godric`s Hallow … or else fled when there was no body left to feed it" Now the cat couldn`t have died or someone would have mentioned it and we know that it must have fled as besides Moldy Voldy Harry was the only other living soul in the house but if the cat had died there would have been atleast a mention

so i figure that the cat was crookshanks she and sirius went hunting down peter but he turned into the rat crookshanks then would have chased it to wherever the weasleys found him, such as a pet store

she is right age and all so could crookshanks be the cat mentioned in the letter … which is why she used chase scabbers?

to b honest i originally thought that crookshanks was lily in animagus form and had somehow survive moldy voldy
JK lyks readers to find things out for themselves and if im correct she made a very gud behind the scenees plot but why did she just make crookshanks vanish, making her last mention in DH chp six pg 81 "Hermoine was now sitting in the far corner, her fluffy ginger cat Crookshanks at her feet" and then crookshanks doesnt appear anymore in the bk

I had actually though of that, but I think that Lily wold have mentioned if her cat was part Kneazle, in her letter or in some other way.

A New Beginning
A NEW BEGINNING

Sorry I been gone for a minute, just been grinding, you know how it is. I’m sure you already know, but Barack Obama just clinched the presidential Nomination for the democratic party. That is monumentous. I’m not saying that just because he is black, (Honestly I feel like we are all born on this planet as colorless souls placed in the body we possess), but because of the implications of where america is in excepting a non-white candidate as a potential candidate. Don’t get me wrong, i am proud that for all the people saying that the civil rights movement is forgotten, and all that jazz, I feel he is a living testament that, though us young folks can seem like we have no sense at times, we do pay attention to what’s going on. We have not forgotten. It’s in our roots. And I’ll say that psychologically, just the thought that Obama could be our next president allows the bar to be higher on the dreams of the minority youth. Being entertainers and athletes is cool, but to have realistic aspirations of obtaining presidency as well, truly removes the glass ceiling. i have like Obama for about a year now, and while I am partial because he is African American, I also honestly think he is good enough for the position. People around the world celebrated when he got the vote. THE WORLD, you hear me. for a presidential election. That’s big. Keep doing your thing Barack.

On my end, just been in the lab, and out grinding. if you are in the A you might have caught me on WRFG 89.3 bout 2 weeks ago. I have layed some new thoughts in the studio that came out blazin, All while reeling the paper in, you know how it goes. And a while back, i told you I was going to career day at murphey candler elementary school. I got pics of that on my face book. Anyways, be easy and till next time, peace.

O yeah, and i will be performing in marietta at the 3 bears cafe on june 13th. Shout out to VIno, EJ and the crew, and Wildcat from Organized Noise. aiight, i’m out, peace.

How come my 12 year old Toyota 2wd Hilux regular cab 5 speed manual truck with 98,000 miles, which cost 1/3 the cost of my Dad’s 11 year old Ford F-150 extra cab truck with a bigger motor than mine, automatic and 82,000 miles did new. Has the same blue book?

How come I launched my truck off of a 6 foot mound of dirt into a 20 foot tall pile of hay barrels, and nothing broke?

How come at 98,000 miles all I had to do to my truck was change the front brake pads?

How come this thing won’t die?

I won’t buy a new truck untill this dies, but it just seems like I can’t kill it.

I ring its neck, I drive 40mph over speedbumps, driveway dips, up curbs down curbs, through mud, bushes, off loading docks, but the truck just keeps going. I haven’t even changed the oil in a year. Why won’t it Die?!?!?!
And fot "Hinch" I had a Chevy it was total peice of crap. Never again. Never again.

Had the same problem with my Dodge Rams,one lasted for 180,000 miles(1995) and then sold it and bought another that lasted for 400,000 miles(2001 diesel).They just won’t die!

I’ve just heard on Sky News that the new Harry Potter Book is to be released tonight at midnight. I have absolutely nothing against Harry Potter or J K Rowling, in fact I enjoy the books/films.

It just occurred to me that with all the talk of global warming, turn your thermostat down, walk instead of car etc etc, is it not pretty silly to launch a book at midnight when all the shops are going to have to stay open longer using more energy, burning lights etc not to mention travel for people to go to the shop to buy the book after already gone home for the day.Would it not be better to release the book at 9am the next day?

This question also brings to mind 24hour stores. Is it really necessary to have them open all night using energy? Could they not close from midnight until 5am for example? Surely that would help our carbon imprint.

Maybe its just me. Oh well . . . i’ll go now and turn my thermostat down by 2 degrees and make sure none of my appliances are on standby!

I’ve never really understood why it’s necessary to launch a book, film, record or something at midnight. I guess it’s all part of the plan to sell as many as possible by creating a lot of excitement and media interest. Personally I can’t think of many things worse than queueing outside a store at midnight just to be amongst the first to get my hands on a book.

Turning to the global warming thing – yes it’s pretty silly opening stores at midnight but I guess people are going to travel to buy the book anyway and at least at midnight they’re not going to get stuck in traffic queues which is one of the worst things in respect of global warming.

I guess at the end of the day commercialism takes priority over environmentalism. It’s all about the money and that’s usually a big enough incentive to cast aside all other concerns.

Let’s talk about unhappiness. Specifically, how it’s growing in one segment of our society. And no, it’s not white congressmen from South Carolina, hip-hop artists who feel Beyoncé got slighted, or recipients of ill-timed foot-fault calls.

It’s women. According to study after study, women are becoming more and more unhappy. This drop in happiness is found in women across the social and economic landscape. It doesn’t matter what their marital status is, how much money they make, whether or not they have children, their ethnic background, or the country they live in. Women around the world are in a funk.

And it’s not because of the multitude of crises we are facing. Women’s happiness has been on a downward trend since the early 1970s, when the General Social Survey, a landmark study, began examining the social attitudes of women and men — who, by the way, have gotten progressively happier over the years.

When you think about all that has happened over the last four decades — with women securing greater opportunity, greater achievement, greater influence, and more money — the decline in our collective state of mind seems to defy logic, and raises the vexing question: What in the world is going on?

It’s a question we’ll be exploring in depth on HuffPost in the coming weeks, in a series of blog posts by bestselling author and lecturer Marcus Buckingham. Drawing on his years as a senior researcher at Gallup, Marcus has developed a far-ranging expertise on what all of us — but especially women — can do to live richer, more purposeful, and, yes, happier lives.

Marcus kicks things off today with a look at "What’s Happening to Women’s Happiness?" a post in which he drills into the data on women and happiness, and looks at what is causing the downward drift. He also sets the table for the coming weeks during which he will lay out his prescriptions for bucking the unhappiness trend, the subject of his latest book Find Your Strongest Life: What the Happiest and Most Successful Women Do Differently," which will be published on September 29th (just six days before our Books section launches!).

As part of this, he will introduce his new Strong Life Test, a tool to help women recognize precisely which parts of their lives are going to bring them the most joy, pleasure, energy, satisfaction, and, ultimately, greater happiness. According to Marcus, "It doesn’t give you all the answers, but it tells you where to start."

Among the other topics Marcus will be blogging about: "The Myth of Multitasking," "The Myth of More Free Time," "The Myth of Kids Wanting More Time with Their Working Mothers," and one I am especially interested in, "The Myth of Striving for a Balanced Life" (he feels women need to imbalance their lives, putting more emphasis on those things that most fulfill them).

We are thrilled to have Marcus Buckingham join the HuffPost community of bloggers. He is a great addition to the mix. So go check out his first post, which is featured at the top of our Living page. What he has to say will surprise you.

Women are laboring all of their Lives (with extremely few exceptions) and seldom are given credit
for all they do.
Speak with a Man who has become a "house husband" and you will get a true picture of what life is like for Women.

Hi!

I have been having trouble with the php database on my site and need to completely remove phpbb, phpMyAdmin and any associated MySQL databases for my site, so that I can do a complete, clean reinstall. Currently I can’t use phpMyAdmin at all as the database is corrupted, and I would like to start again from scratch.

I was also hoping that you could put the new version of phpBB (2.0.21) into your addons section, as the version that you currently offer (2.0.18) has some serious security flaws.

I need to get this sorted very shortly, as on Saturday I have a book being launched at Origins and need to support it via those forums, which we have advertised.

Additionally, using both IE and Firefox, with and without cookies, with and without a firewall, I can not use your "Contact Us" page, as it sends me in an endess loop, answering those same three drop down questions. What’s going on with that?

Thanks,

Craig
