I am watching Dancing with the Stars right now on ABC and one of the judges just told Joey Fattone from N’sync:

“You flew off that stage like Harry Potter on a Nimbus 2000!”

I screamed and my mom yelled. Whoops.

The Royal Mail is going to be selling Harry Potter stamps. Images from the covers of JK’s seven books will appear on first-class stamps. The Hogwarts and House Crests will also be on a set of five stamps. The stamps will be available on July 17.

Thanks HPANA!

HP Fan Trips will host a live podcast for travelers to discuss their thoughts on the seventh book during their tour before the release of Deathly Hallows.  They will discuss many topics about the seventh book.  There are only a few seats left so get them fast!

Physics experts at Salford University have been given a £1million grant to design materials that can hide solid objects by bending light around them. It could mean that invisibility cloaks, which make people and objects disappear from view, like the one used by the boy wizard in the JK Rowling books, will one day become a reality.

A team of experts are working on the latest generation of materials which will radically change the way that light behaves.

The new “meta-materials” are made by inserting metal wires – a fraction of a hair-width – into another material such as plastic or glass. The introduction of the metals will create an electromagnetic force which would make light flow around a hidden object, just as water in a river flows around a smooth rock

A spokesman said:

Ten males aged between 12 and 14, from Carnforth and surrounding areas, have all been arrested in connection to the incident.

They have been released on police bail pending further inquiries to report back to British Transport Police in the first week of May.

Thanks for the tip HPANA!
