Dan has a new interview in the September issue of Vogue. He talks about a bunch of different stuff.

They’re always expecting some terrible person to turn up. So you try to make sure that they know that you’re intelligent and not horrible. Then you try to be rugged and sexy – but only after smart and lovable.

Thanks SS!

Wow…for some reason cutenews deleted all the comments and wouldnt let people add new ones. But luckily I usually back stuff up after every new news post. (I forgot the past few times). So most of the comments are back and you can now comment again!

More about the HBP video game today. A new trailer for the game has been released! It looks fantastic! See it here.

Also, there is an article about what you do and see in the game. See that in the link above also.

A preview of the Nintendo DS version of HBP has been realeased. Here is an excerpt:

Most of the Hogwarts school is represented in an isometric world. Players control Harry and can explore the grounds of the wizarding school. Numerous students litter the halls and courtyards, offering friendly challenges.

The first portion of the game we tried was the Wizard Duel. Players face off in one on one magic fights with fellow students. Players use the touch screen to attack and defend. The touch screen is split into two sides to switch between attack spells and defense spells.

USA Today has a new article about invisibility cloaks! It is very interesting. Here are some highlights.

One of the new prototypes is a woven fishnet of silver nanowires, each one about 10,000 times thinner than a human hair. It was reported this week in the journal Science. The team tested the device for red, or visible, light and infrared light and said the prototype bends red light from all angles hundreds of times more effectively than in past attempts.

The other device, reported this week in Nature magazine, relies on 21 stacked grids of silver and magnesium fluoride of similarly small sizes. The researchers found that the device bent infrared light around the grids.

And unlike Harry Potter’s cloak, these fragile metamaterials would be blown away by the gentlest breeze. “Developing a way to manufacture these materials on a large scale will also be a challenge.

Thanks DC!
