I know some think he will sacrafice himself to save everyone. I personally don't see how that will finish off Voldemort. I don't think he is a horcrux, I trust Dumbledore when he said his thoughts on Voldemort's horcruxes. So will he use the killing curse? Ok, 2 questions I guess. Since they both have brother wands, it only has the Priori Incantatem effect if they say a spell at the same time? I think Voldemort used a crucio curse on Harry.

I've read all 6 books, and with the 7th coming out soon, I've been reading the rumor sites. A lot of the speculation mentions the prophecy that Dumbledore overheard, coming from Trelawney. It had something to do with Neville Longbottom didn't it? It's been so long that I've forgotten. Will you refresh my memory. Of course I remember the basics: horcruxes, Dumbledore's death, etc.

If I had an idea for a movie script, where would be the best place to take it? Or a story line for a TV show might work too...?

I've never heard of these books, so your personal opinions matter much! If you want, you can give me a small description on what the book is about. Thanks.

BTW, I have to take an essay exam on one of these books (whichever I choose)

Thank you in advance!

I read on-line somewhare that he was in Slytherin, but I thought he was in Gryffindor. This person's reasoning was because Sirrius was in Slytherin and they were best friends. I also thought Sirrius was in Gryffinder. Please, I need clairification. Also, what House was Hagrid in? I don't remember ever reading this info.

If we gave everyone the power and authority to fix problems as they arose.

Many of the problems in the world could have been fixed in the first five minutes but the people present did not have the authority or the resourses to fix them. We had to wait for approvals and the problems escalated in the absence of
authority.
but small things lead to big things. Incentive and motovation snowballs.

In the service industry if a worker can repair the damaged confidence a client or customer has in a product or service by replacing or repairing immediately the defect then customer retention is achieved...problem goes away...confidence is restored and workers self esteem is raised. Giving the worker the authority has improved the service industry.

Would this empowerment implemented on every level of society improve our world. or cause more problems?

Harry was years younger and facing one of, if not the, most powerful wizards of all time.
Granted, Voldemort was freshly "re-birthed", but he should still have been powerful enough to beat a 14 year old boy

What subject did Dumbeldore teach at Hogwarts before becoming HeadMaster?

It was 1987! At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings
during the Reagan Administration.

There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree,but what he said was stunning.

He was being drilled by a senator; 'Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security system?'

Ollie replied, 'Yes, I did, Sir.'

The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, 'Isn't that just a little excessive?'

'No, sir,' continued Ollie.

'No? And why not?' the senator asked.

'Because the lives of my family and I were threatened, sir.'

'Threatened? By whom?' the senator questioned.

'By a terrorist, sir' Ollie answered.

'Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?'

'His name is Osama bin Laden, sir' Ollie replied.

At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't.

A couple of people laughed at the attempt.

Then the senator continued.

Why are you so afraid of this man?' the senator asked.

'Because, sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of', Ollie answered.

'And what do you recommend we do about him?' asked the senator.

'Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth.'

The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.

By the way, that senator was Al Gore!

Also: Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986.

The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release so-called 'political prisoners.'

However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands,

The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of
State, Warren Christopher, 'insisted' that all prisoners be released.

Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center.

This was reported by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.

It was censored in the US from all later reports.

The men are so much better. Why ever? The shoulder girdle?

They say that physiologically men's shoulders are "meant" to pick up piles of wood for the fire, and women to pick up babies.

Is that it? Our shoulders? Speaking for myself again (I'm lying ...I just don't want to be caught ... I think women pianists, like women conductors, lack warmth if nothing else, and that would be bad enough right there, but we *also* aren't talented, either ...I mean, how many women pianists do you know who you *don't* have to patronize under your breath with "That's lovely, dear!" ???)

So...what is it? The size of the instrument? Our spines? A lack of objectivity? Lack of foresight? We don't sing pretty?

Just so ditsy! AAAaargh!

I'll just go for some sherry. I'll be alright in a few.
