In a speech Wednesday at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Kerry cited the adage that "we can't be strong in the world unless we are strong at home." He called the budget impasse a threat.
The State Department has said automatic spending cuts would jeopardize $2.6 billion in aid, security assistance and other international programs.
Kerry said legislators need to avoid "senseless cuts."
Otherwise, he said his credibility as a diplomat might be damaged.
Kerry said, "Think about it: It's hard to tell the leadership of any number of countries that they must resolve their economic issues if we don't resolve our own."

TOOL NEWS: Acme Tools now selling online
For those of you who remember buying tools from Tool Crib of the North back in the 1980s and '90s, you'll be happy to know it's back in business as an online retailer as well as catalog merchant. Only now the company is known as Acme Tools. (And, no, this is not where Wile E. Coyote bought all of his products in his countless efforts to catch the Roadrunner!)
In late 1999 Tool Crib of the North sold its online and catalog business to Amazon.com. Since then the Kuhlman family that owned the business worked to expand its retail store presence in North Dakota, Minnesota, and Iowa. Now Acme Tools sells more than 10,000 products and hundreds of brands through its Web site. "Acme is committed to setting the standards for customer service and shopping experience in the online marketplace for tools and equipment," says Steve Kuhlman, vice president of corporate operations.

On Nov. 19, 2008, Coast Guard officials exercised options on the existing ICGS Deepwater contract to missionize the fifth and sixth HC-130J Long Range Surveillance (LRS) Aircraft at Lockheed Martin in Greenville, S.C. The missionization process is a critical step in providing the C-130J the capabilities necessary to perform the broad set of Coast Guard missions required of the new long-range search aircraft stationed at Elizabeth City, N.C. more effectively.
The Coast Guard's C-130J "Hercules" is based on the robust C-130 basic airframe design, but new engines, propellers, avionics, and cargo-handling equipment quickly set this new aircraft apart from its predecessor. The C-130J will assume the traditional duties of the HC-130H, which include search and rescue, homeland security, law enforcement, pollution prevention, logistics, and personnel transport. However, with its new technology, it will perform these missions more efficiently and effectively.
With its Allison AE2100 engines and Dowty six-bladed propellers, the C-130J boasts advanced performance over the "H" model by a 20 percent increase in speed, a 40 percent increase in range, and a 40 percent higher cruising altitude. It can climb higher and faster than the "H" model, yet takeoff and land on shorter runways.
A completely redesigned cockpit with an integrated, digital flight management system allows the C-130J to be operated by a two-person flight deck crew, as compared to the four- to five-person crew of the H model. Dual head-up displays provide pilots with essential flight information and increase safety during low-level maneuvers, including takeoffs and landings in reduced visibility. High-resolution, ground-mapping radar, integrated with on-board global positioning system (GPS) and inertial navigation system, provides aircrews with precise navigation and situational awareness. An enhanced cargo-handling system provides loadmasters with the ability to automatically calculate weight and balance data and, also, quickly change cargo compartment configuration to accommodate different payloads.
The C-130J Missionization Project leverages the technology that was developed by ICGS for the HC-144A ("Ocean Sentry") Maritime Patrol Aircraft. The missionization suite includes a surface search radar, a forward-looking infrared (FLIR)/electro-optical sensor, satellite and emergency response radios, all controlled through a flight deck-mounted operator station.

One couple in Seattle decided to combine their love of zombie props with their love for each other, resulting in a horrifically gory wedding idea: a zombie wedding.
During the first annual ZomBCon of 2010, Casey Russell and Nathan Patrick Dooley decided to tie the knot and say their vows. The bride dressed in a blood-stained white dress and the grooms guts were spilling out of his stomach. With a crowd of fellow zombie enthusiasts looking on in awe, their marriage was ordained by Bruce Campbell, cult movie star and zombie slayer.
"You know that things will not always be easy in your relationship … you will occasionally find yourself stumbling on your path together unsure of what lies ahead," Campbell told the couple. "But there will always be one thing in your life that you can count on, one thing you will both seek out relentlessly, and one thing that will consume you both, and that one thing is – brrrains. … Ah, I'm sorry, I mean love."
Once the ceremony was over, forty other married couples, who were also dressed as zombies, had their marriage vows renewed. Some may say this is kooky or strange, but I say its heartwarming to see two individuals share their love for the undead. It clearly shows just how much the zombie culture has influenced our society. From zombie walks and a statistical analysis of a zombie apocalypse to an official zombie apocalypse emergency plan and detailed zombie costumes, our culture has become fascinated with the world of the undead.
As a parting note, while searching around for other popularized zombie weddings, I stumbled across this zombie wedding invitation:
Nothing brings a couple together quite like a swarm of ravenous undead.

A trial has started for the high-stakes case against BP and other companies involved in a deadly rig explosion that spawned the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier is scheduled to hear several hours of opening statements Monday by lawyers for the companies, federal and state governments and others who sued over the disaster. Barbier is hearing the case without a jury.
The trial is designed to identify the causes of BP's well blowout and assign percentages of fault to the companies. That will help determine how much more each has to pay.
Months of negotiations have failed to produce a settlement that could have averted the trial. Eleven workers died in the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig.

Nestlé targets Indian premium market
26 July 2013
NEW DELHI: Nestlé plans to introduce a string of premium brands to India over the next few years, as it seeks to counter a falling market share in the chocolate sector.
Livemint reports
that the Swiss confectionery giant's focus till now has been mainly in the bulk-sales market, with brands such as Kit-Kat, and the recently-introduced Alpino, which it targeted towards older consumers in metro cities.
This has coincided with a fall in market share from 26.1% in 2008 to 23.6% in 2012, according to data from market researcher Nielsen, and in common with other FMCG companies, Nestlé is hoping to expand sales among the rising affluent urban demographic.
"In the consumption pyramid, premiumisation will clearly happen," said Mayur Bhargava, general manager, chocolates and confectionery, Nestlé India.
He added that the company will phase in more premium products from its international portfolio over the next couple of years. Nestlé's head of Asia, Nandu Nandkishore, has said that the company "will start to tackle this premium opportunity, which is huge."
The policy has the support of analysts, with Euromonitor finding an increasing acceptance of premium brands, and their growth rate outperforming that of the overall confectionery market.
"The premium play also suggests better margins, especially at a time of persistent inflation and stressed margins for consumer companies," said Ankur Bisen, vice president at Technopak Advisors Pvt Ltd, the Indian consulting firm.
However, Nestlé is also planning to continue to engineer growth through popular brands such as Munch and Kit-Kat, primarily by expanding distribution outside of the 50 largest cities which are currently targeted.
It has introduced cheaper, smaller units for its existing brands in a bid to expand sales in rural areas.

To all my friends on this forum, who truly love the outdoors, I hope on this Easter morning each of you understands the resurrection promise. A new resurrected body (that won't get old, die or get sick), that will one day live on a brand new perfect Earth. What more could someone who loves the outdoors hope for?
If strumming a harp on a while cloud sounds silly to you, it does to God as well. Instead, He designed us to live and thrive on a perfect new earth, and provided the way through Christ. Scripture has promised I am making everything new! Then he said, Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.
That promise was made possible through the resurrection of Christ. Happy Easter.

Whooping Cough
Bordetella (Haemophilus) pertussis bacteria. Source: CDC.
Pertussis leaves its victims literally gasping for air—young children and babies are affected the hardest. At first, it might seem like a common cold—runny nose, fever, and cough.
Whooping Cough (Pertussis)
Español: Causas y transmisión
Pertussis, a respiratory illness commonly known as whooping cough, is a very contagious disease caused by a type of bacteria called Bordetella pertussis. These bacteria attach to the cilia (tiny, hair-like extensions) that line part of the upper respiratory system. The bacteria release toxins, which damage the cilia and cause inflammation (swelling).
Broken blood vessels and bruising due to pertussis coughing.
Credit: Thomas Schlenker Pertussis is a very contagious disease only found in humans and is spread from person to person. People with pertussis usually spread the disease by coughing or sneezing while in close contact with others, who then breathe in the pertussis bacteria. Many infants who get pertussis are infected by older siblings, parents or caregivers who might not even know they have the disease (Bisgard, 2004 & Wendelboe, 2007). Symptoms of pertussis usually develop within 7–10 days after being exposed, but sometimes not for as long as 6 weeks.
Pertussis vaccines are very effective in protecting you from disease but no vaccine is 100% effective. If pertussis is circulating in the community, there is a chance that a fully vaccinated person, of any age, can catch this very contagious disease. If you have been vaccinated, the infection is usually less severe. If you or your child develops a cold that includes a severe cough or a cough that lasts for a long time, it may be pertussis. The best way to know is to contact your doctor.
Pertussis Epidemic — U.S., Washington State, 2012
Since mid-2011, a substantial rise in pertussis cases has been reported in the state of Washington. In response to this increase, the Washington State Secretary of Health declared a pertussis epidemic on April 3, 2012. By June 16, the reported number of cases in 2012 had reached 2,520 (37.5 cases per 100,000 residents), a nearly 1,300% increase compared with the same period in 2011 and the highest number of cases reported in any year since 1942. To assess clinical, epidemiologic, and laboratory factors associated with this increase, all pertussis cases reported during January 1–June 16, 2012, were reviewed.

Thank you, Deedee.
And I agree with you about the supervisors on GS. They really work hard to keep things civil and welcoming, and the members live up to their standards. I've seen commentary on YouTube (under the videos) that almost give me blisters, and I realize how lucky we are here at GS because people just don't do that here.
So we Daisuke fans can have the best time possible, and those of us who aren't Japanese have the opportunity to learn all sorts of things we wouldn't have a chance of finding out on our own.

There was a TV program On-Aired last week, featuring Shizuka, as an interviewer to Daisuke. I will post interesting quotes from this, some at a time for you.

Fyi, 'Friends Plus' is a 60min. TV program focused on Shizuka Arakawa, as the Olympic Champion, as a professional skater, as the show producer ('Friends on Ice'), and as a person.
Shizuka somtimes invites one of her friends at a time as her guest, and gives an interview. This season (2011-12), she already invited Nobuo Sato, Shae-Lynn Bourne, Takeshi Honda and Yamato Tamura, and the final guest of the season was Daisuke, whom Shiz admires and treats as if were her 'younger brother'.
<1> Prologue
After the most successful season (2009-10) in his whole career, with the historic Olympic bronze medal and winning the Worlds as the first Japanese male skater, Shizuka also gave an interview to Dai around the same time of last season (January 2011).
As some of you remember, January 2011 was probably one of harder times for Dai; right after the neck/back injury due to the unexpected collision and the disappointing 5th place finish at GPF, another disappointing 3rd place finish at the Nats and losing its title to Takahiko.
Shizuka asked a question, "The new year 2011, what do you think is gonna be like for you, Dai?"
He answered, "Well, this year (2011) is going to be very important for me... concerning my future,...indeed,... to decide whether to continue... or stop (competing)..." "If I choose to continue, there will be a lot for me to deal with and catch up with, considering my position among the current Mens field. If I decide to retire, there will be other things and people I feel obligated to, so I have to weigh it very carefully, you know."
Dai looked so unsure about himself to the eyes of many people during last year's interview.
When Shiz asked Dai about his program preparation for 'Friends on Ice' that summer, he even suggested, "it sounds interesting to have a poll and ask fans, doesn't it? Something like, 'what programs of mine from the past would you like me to skate for you?'" Then Shiz and Dai talked cheerfully, "We have five outings in total at FOI. Let's do one at a time from the 5th for the first outing, then onto 4th, 3rd, 2nd. And save the 1st favored program for the closing night of the shows!"
My guess at that time was, he was leaning towards retiring from competitive skating.
At Worlds in Moscow later that season, after the disastrous earthquakes and tsunamis in Japan and cancel-off of Worlds in Tokyo, another unexpected insident hit Dai; a screw loosened up from left boot at the beginning of his Free Skate and he had to settle with 5th place finish there.
That changed everything.
Dai felt that he did not give his absolute best just yet, that he still had energy and competitive fire within, and he believed he could still keep improving to be a better skater. The next day Dai announced that he will continue three more seasons till Sochi, and his goal is to join the National team for the Olympic Games (he was not sure if he could make it, because of such depth in Mens field in Japan), and to aim for a medal if possible.
After removing a screw from the injured right knee in May, Dai and his team checked on his overall skating going all the way down to the basics.
In summer he flew to Lyon, France to relearn skating skill from the world-renowned ice dance coaches; Messieur-dames Muriel Boucher-Zazoui, Romain Haguenauer, and Olivier Schoenfelder.
He went to David Wilson for a new chreography to extend the range of his stlyes.
In autumn, he started ballet excercises to focus more on core strength and flexibility, which was something he always felt inferiror to others since as a kid skater.
Dai showed up to Shizuka's interview this year, looking very young and refreshed, with sparkling eyes full of energy.
Shizuka's first question.
"Tell me. What is it that interests you the most now? And that interests you the least now, or in other words, you find it very hard?"
to be continued...sorry my time is up for today.
Thanks so much for your translation work! What fun to read something so in-depth about Daisuke.
The talk show was up on youtube yesterday but it has been taken down.

Just dropping by to say, "Good Luck" for the Worlds, Dai. Skate well. I believe you will podium.
Yes, he has already had "it"!Originally Posted by demarinis5
This is a very rare video, that's why I posted it here. Even Japanese fans, like me, haven't had a chance to see this program before, though we knew that Daisuke once skated to "What a Wonderful World". Thank you so much for sharing this video.

Thanks a lot for your kind words, everyone!
The difficult part for me to translate Dai's answers, is he does not say much even in Japanese. By referring to his other interviews from the past, I read between the lines, and add some words to make it more sense in English.
When asked about things which he does not want to talk, and/or does not want to share with others for the time being, he does not talk at all, or talk as little as he can. And when forced to answer by the Japanese media sometimes, he either gives noncommittal answers in general in a polite manner, or just adopts neutral attitude. But Dai always tries to treat the media equally, face them and answer with honesty, however the least he is gonna to tell, he tells no lies. Thus the media seldom bashes him or writes him off, regardless of his good results or not. The same goes for Mao and the media, I think.

Dai: "The hardest thing for me is get up early every morning, in time for trainings..." "The thing I enjoy the most right now is stretch excercises!"
Shiz: "Did you say STRETCH??? (Knowing you almost ten years), I never expected a word stretch from you..."
Dai often referrs himself as 'stretch maniac' these days.
Dai: "I got zero flexibility in the past you know, but am getting my muscles more flexible. Very happy with that."
Shiz: "Yes, I can see it when you skate. You skate more fluently, using your whole body more freely than before."
Dai: "I feel it myself, too. I can dance much easier on the ice. I am getting little by littel to my image of 'the ideal dance for me'. But it is still a work in progress. I was that unflexible. I have a long way to get there."
Shiz: "What impresses me is we can clearly see your exercises does help your skating. We already see the change in your skating.
There are a lot of training methods and exercises available for every athletes to choose from. For skaters, however, what we do on the ground does not always help much what we do on the ice. Some of excercises on the ground may cause bad effects to skating, owing to its unique nature of figure skating as a sport. We have to be very careful when making an option."

Shiz: "What is it, that interests you the most in skating now, or the thing you feel excited about the most?"
Dai: "Many of male skaters go for quads at every competiton! Now we see more quads attempts. A quad after quad, it's so exciting to watch, isn't it?
A little while ago, many would prefer a rather conservative strategy once competition starts. Now we all go out and attack it to win, trying to hit all jumps, rather than being conservative for cleaner skates. I really like it!"
Shiz: "No one can be conservative in Mens field anymore. It seems to me, a sort of easier for skaters to include a quad/s as a primarily planned element. They donot have to weigh it (=go for a quad or skip it) depending on the progress of the competition, because everyone knows that no one's gonna be conservative."
Dai: "Yes! There was once a negative opinion for being aggressive and taking a risk for harder elements, which is something I found incongurous (=inappropiate?) in order to win. It's a competition. Competition is what I do now. I do it as an athlete on its top form. (=Time for competitive skating is limited, we cannot do it forever.)
Of course, I am not the type of person who always against the conservative strategy no matter what. (=It depends on the situations, such as competing while injured or sick.) But if it is to happen at every single competition, I donot like it. I feel uncomfortable. I would prefer go aggressive if I want to win.
While I like the current 'going for all' situation of Mens field, it also gives me a hard time (because of my unstable quads)..."
Shiz: "I agree. Very exciting for us, the spectators to watch such aggressive competitions again. Also, even after the change of evaluation system into COP years ago, we still get to see different types of skates and skaters in Mens field."
Dai: "I like that, too. Such wide range in styles in Mens field."
Shiz: "Under COP, they value a total package. COP demands higher levels on all elements. That makes it more exciting to watch."
Dai: "I know. I feel for the skaters, me included, for that matter though..."

Thank you so much deedee1. I have always wished to have opportunities to understand Dai and other Japanese skaters better.
Also, you are doing a great job.

Great job! Definitely an improvment on colours/tone on this one. Repped.
Now that I'm looking at it again, I feel that labels should be closer to the icons (cities/battlefileds etc.). For now they seem a bit too far. Sorry to haven't spot that when it was still a WIP
Thanks a lots guys!
No need sorry Max, you are helping me alots in everything.
You're welcome. I was about to ask you what map would be the next but I saw you just started a new WIP. I smell some more improvments to come
w00t 100 rep points
yes, it started, like i said before, now i go slow, no rush. Want something really better!
I like the style and the hand drawn icons are nice. Good job
The linework of the Compass is much thinner than the linework of the Mountains and trees, thats the only thing bothering me here.
Besides that, this kind of colorsheme is well choosen and its an overall well made map! Get some rep [have to spread more befor you get some from em again ]
this is nice - i like the overall feel the zoomed out map evokes, with the history cartouche in the top right and other details. easily my fave of the egos maps. nice colours, though perhaps the political colours might be a slight bit more pronounced.

The World of Dinosaurs
At the beginning of the 20th century, the Museum für Naturkunde commissioned a palaeontological expedition to what is now Tanzania in Eastern Africa to excavate dinosaur fossils. It was to become the most successful dinosaur excavation of all time. A staggering 250 tonnes of bones were recovered by researchers at Tendaguru Hill and shipped to Berlin, where skeletons were put together again wherever possible. Most dinosaur skeletons exhibited in the hall originate from Tendaguru.
"Jurascopes" have been installed that allow visitors to bring dinosaurs to life again.
Brachiosaurus brancai
Its height of 13.27 metres makes the Brachiosaurus (Brachiosaurus brancai) skeleton the biggest mounted dinosaur skeleton in the world. Its bones were found during the Tendaguru expedition. The animal lived 150 million years ago, feeding on plants. Researchers are currently investigating which plants and animals lived in the same habitat and what kind of static and physiological challenges such a 50-tonne giant faced.

Hard question to answer as every city is different and depends on its building history context, geographical and topographical environment and so on.
I would suggest you to take time and read eXeditious Retreat Press great "Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe" book. It presents a way to determine area of your city according to the population size and for each you got the "buildings density", thus you can see how your 'houses' are spread around the place. When you got the number of area and their size, it is far more easy to draw it using graphical tools (Photoshop, Illustrator and others that enables you to check for area size/surface (acre, are, square feet/meters...)). Then you would have the representation of your city.
Aside of this, I would suggest a simple but effective website (you can download the script freely to store it without being "connected") which allow you to compute (according to historical and empirical material) the size of a city, size of surroundings, size of cultures fields and even population 'classes' and business... http://www.welshpiper.com/medieval-demographics-online/
I base all my works on those tools.
Hope that helps!

Talk:Hermione Granger
Back to page

Offensive Language
I have recently discovered that this page is under thecategory of the offensive word - please excuse me for typing this - "xxxx!". If you type the word "****!" in the search box you will be directed to Hermione's page. I think that ought to be removed. I have just gotten an email even saying "See the latest changes made to xxxx! on Harry Potter Wiki by user" instead of saying the usual "Hermione Granger" name in the subject. Once again this ought to be removed and I would have removed it if I could but the problem is I don't know how to. — Firefox1095 — 22:05, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
- Redirect has been deleted. - Nick O'Demus 05:12, May 10, 2011 (UTC)
- What are the xxxx for...Hermione?!?, thats not nice. At least its removed Speedysnitch 03:57, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
- Well it is not xxxx but it was a curse word that starts with an "f" and ends with a "k" but you obviously can't type curse words on the wikia (I didn't know that when I typed it :P )so Nick O'Demus changed it to xxxx. — Firefox1095 — 22:45, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
- Oh and it was a redirect. Like if you type "fxxk" (the word itself) in the search box, you would be redirected to Hermione's page and also when you get emails about changes, it will say "See the latest changes made to xxxx! on Harry Potter Wiki by user" instead of saying the usual "Hermione Granger" name in the subject. Thank goodness it is removed now. I hate vandalists. — Firefox1095 — 22:47, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
Hermione's inquisitive nature.
Hermione loves working with her hands- destroying thing to see how they work and putting them back together again. This is why she loves to knit, making scarves, hats and socks from nothing more than yarn.
Lilyluna96 12:33, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
I'm surprised that more people use voldemort or remus lupin or sirius black or severus snape as a talk place.....see Hermione is one of those main, main characters, as of remus, sirius, snape they are main but not as main as Hermione....not voldemort though he is a main main character, but he is on the dark side, Hermione is on the good side......i don't get it. That sounded wierd when I said main,main.... - Speedysnitch 03:53, May 27, 2011 (UTC)
Man! they REALLY should make a page for Harry Potter...I havent seen one for him, yet! and he is the character of ALL CHARACTERS! (no offense to Ron or Hermione in saying that)... but its true! :( - pinkstarwarsfreak94

I think it's about time we changed Hermione's infobox image. I uploaded and held a vote on the current one a while back when no 'official' studio shots of Deathly Hallows were released and as we now have quite a lot of studio shots of Hermione from the latest film I think we should take a vote on which should be the new one!

I am not at registered user, but I do have a suggestion for the Hermione Granger article. This is a small thing, but I remembered that Draco Malfoy called Hermione a "mudblood" at least once, and I think that should be added under the row "Also known as". Thank You!
ImageI would like to propose a new image for the page. This one:
Secret agent clank 16:59, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
That's a cool pic! and i think it's here prettiest one :)Teamcullen 19:41, July 23, 2011 (UTC)
Why isn't Gilderoy Lockhart in the people section considering she had a crush on him.
There is a gramatical error in the 'Authors comments' section
I really like this one! It's a really pretty pic of her! DahSmartzCutie 23:53, February 2, 2012 (UTC)
We should put the pic of her in the deathly hallows part 1 movie, and the one right now is T-R-A-S-H. go on google and type in "hermiopne granger year 7". its the first pic. but yea. yours is nice as well. i just thought that since the one i was thinkin of is more recent.Mrjoebobisvoldemort (talk) 18:46, July 7, 2012 (UTC)
How did Hermione know Harry Potter's name at first without him saying so?
Interstate2011 18:48, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
- By the 1990s, Harry Potter's "defeat" of Voldemort was legendary in the wizarding world. Harry was mentioned in Modern Magical History and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts and Great Wizarding Events of the Twentieth Century, which Hermione dutifully read the summer before her first year at Hogwarts. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 18:56, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
- /*Answer*/
- Answer to a question marked unknown on this page: Her Patronus was an Otter. It's in books 5 and 7. I don't have them on me or I'd give you a page number. Just throwin' that out there. Someone should change it :)
New article name?
Don;t you think the article name should be changed to "Hermione Weasley" and "Hermione Granger" should redirect to it? Xeoxer 20:34, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
Looks to me that the standard on this wiki is to name the articles of women using the name she is most known by be it her maiden or married name. -Shorty1982 20:44, August 19, 2011 (UTC)
We don't even know whether she's called Hermione Weasley or if she kept her last name like Professor McGonagall did. I'd be careful with that whole "Hermione Weasley" thing. 22.214.171.124 07:53, March 26, 2012 (UTC)
I have a suggestion for the Relationships:Draco Malfoy Category.
In a recent interview, J.K. Rowling said that Draco had strong positive feelings for Hermoine, and would always have "lingering" feelings. However, due to his upbringing, he was unable to act on those feelings, and instead made fun of her, gaining some attention that way.
However, for some reason I am unable to post this information, there being no "edit" button available, as I am a new user, and was hoping that someone else could, along with finding out which interview it was.
02:25, August 23, 2011 (UTC) Mrs. di Angelo
- Firstly, the article is protected so if you haven't had an account for a while you can't directly edit it, you may only suggests edits here until you've been around long enough. Secondly, I have never ever heard of JK Rowling once (across all HP related media) suggest that sort of relationship between Hermione and Draco. Of course, if you have a reference for this purported interview then I'd be all too happy to look over it and—if she did indeed confirm your statement—add the info but otherwise its just unfounded fanon that should not be added—Green Zubat (owl me!). 02:40, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
P.S. I have even double checked courtesy of accio-quote.org (which is a highly comprehensive and reliable source for all things JK, detailing almost every public, HP related comment she has ever made), which has returned no such confirmation of this rumoured interview. Its almost definitely fanon—Green Zubat (owl me!). 02:44, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
- I can't find any references to an actual interview in which JKR revealed Draco had feelings for Hermione. Google results suggest it's an unfounded rumour started by Draco/Hermione shippers on Tumblr.
- If it's a recent interview, though, Accio Quote! wouldn't be the place to look for it, because that site hasn't been updated much since 2007 (probably because JKR has been out of the public eye since the release of DH). ★ Starstuff (Owl me!) 02:56, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
- Personally, that sounds like the most ridiculous rumor I've ever heard. Shippers can be really stupid sometimes. -HoboHunter28- (Leave me an owl!) 03:15, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
Infobox image vote
Forum:Post-DH2 infobox images#Hermione Granger
Follow the link. Nominations are still open. Voting starts in 3 days. - Nick O'Demus 14:49, August 26, 2011 (UTC)
I was reading the article and i noticed that it says Hermione recieved ten Owl's. In the book it says she recieved eleven. Ten were outstanding and one was Excedes Expectations. I thought you might want to change that.
Thank you for pointing that out. I just fixed it. Mllehermione 19:58, September 30, 2011 (UTC)
New Image from Deathly Hallows: Part 2
I'd like to suggest a new image for Hermione's infobox. It has always been the policy of the wiki to have the most recent image of the character (if possible), and this image portrays Hermione in the final film. Tell me what you think! :)
JSquish 23:03, November 26, 2011 (UTC)
I think if we're going to follow the policy of the wiki to use the most recent image of the character, then we might as well use the Prologue picture becaues it is the most recent. — Firefox1095 — 23:25, November 26, 2011 (UTC)
Someone altered Hermione's relatives as the Malfoy family - that Draco is her husband, Scorpius is her son, and Lucius and Narcissa are her inlaws
18.104.22.168 05:01, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
- I've reverted it several times. If they do it again, I'll block them. --Cubs Fan (Talk to me) 05:07, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
Muggle Sister
The citation for Rowling's original plan for Hermione to have a Muggle sister doesn't seem to be posting correctly. If anyone knows how to fix it I've located the interview that states, specifically, that she was to be a Muggle.
220.127.116.11 14:13, May 15, 2012 (UTC)
- Accio Quote is working again? Interesting, it had been down for quite a while. In any case, there was talk about creating our own interview archiving here on the wiki because of the problem with the outage and other such issues. Dunno what the status of it is, though... ProfessorTofty 16:51, May 15, 2012 (UTC)
Maiden name
The cretin, and it's the mildest term that comes to mind, with the following IP address - 126.96.36.199 - keeps trying to repost a transposition of the two surnames, along with other idiocies. Can someone please take steps? Jiskran (talk) 16:33, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Why Apple Will Never Be Great Again
The market wasn't exactly blown away by Apple's iPhone 4S announcement yesterday: Shares of Apple bucked the trend on a day when the general market rallied. Where were the special features already beginning to appear on Android smartphones? And where was the salesmanship of former CEO Steve Jobs, sorely lacking in Tim Cook?

Exceptionally made. These gloves look and fit great. The materials used are perfect and theyre padded and/or reinforced in all the right places. They provide warm and yet allow dexterity. Fit well around the wrist and the velcro closure actually stays closed. Theyre affordable too.

These gloves definitely have grip. Theyre warm and not bulky feeling at all. They stay on quite well too, in fact, you might say...they fit like a glove (should)!! Theyre also very affordable especially given the quality.
Was this review helpful? Yes No
125 out of 256 people found this review helpful.
They fit well even if you have wide feet like we do. The zipper works surprisingly well. They do a great job at not allowing particles to penetrate and actually keeping your feet feeling somewhat dry (if you know what Im trying to say). And, because of their soles, they are very comfortable to walk around in no matter what the conditions. I originally got these for my husband. He liked them so well that I ended up getting myself a pair too. Id also like to mention they are very reasonably priced especially considering their quality.

Research Interests
I joined UCLIC as a PhD student in October 2004. I earned my masters degree in Computer Science from Tufts University, which was when I first got interested in HCI. The notion of making technology fit user needs and trying to really understand what users wanted has really appealed to me. Therefore I decided to take my education further and pursue a career in HCI. My supervisors are Dr. Paul Cairns, who has recently moved to the University of York, and Prof. Ann Blandford.
My PhD revolves around the field of Information Visualization (InfoVis). InfoVis are interactive visual externalizations of data. Users interact with them in order to gain insight and knowledge of the represented domain. Users' experiences when interacting with InfoVis tools is analogous to people's experiences in interacting with the grammars in a text, where the correctness of the grammatical syntax does not necessarily reflect the intended meanings. As a result InfoVis tools are more than merely interfaces, they are instruments. Through my PhD research I generated a holistic understanding of what constitutes users' InfoVis experiences. From this understanding design and evaluation guidelines were extracted.
The scientific domain which I am interested in is the Literature Knowledge Domain (LKD). Such a domain includes data such as authors and papers within an academic context, where information such as citations, publications is revealed through visual coding. As a result I have developed an InfoVis to reflects such information. This tool was used as the basis of the studies conducted as part of my PhD.
In addition to InfoVis my general interests revolve around the areas of: Direct Manipulation, Tangible User Interfaces, Virtual Reality, and Augmented Reality, all within an HCI context.

Entrepreneurship key to engaging global youth
Young people are at the center of global events. This is not a platitude, but a fact, given that half of the world's population is under the age of 30. We live in an era dubbed the age of human talent, and this human capital is a fundamental driver of economic development. But how can we best harness the talent of youth populations and create new pathways for progress? Entrepreneurship, defined by innovation, creativity, and economic advancement, is key to leveraging this talent and forging new paths as entrepreneurs and young people around the world share many of the same traits.
Emerging powers are increasingly putting economics at the center of their foreign policies, and with at least 75 million young people globally, if not more, seeking access to meaningful livelihoods, this demographic is an economic reality that policy makers cannot ignore. Instituting meaningful ways to engage the natural talents of young people, while also addressing the economic challenges this demographic faces, make entrepreneurship initiatives so critical to help solve global challenges.
In 2009, President Barack Obama highlighted entrepreneurship as a pillar of U.S. global engagement, underscoring the importance of entrepreneurship as one of the most powerful ways for individuals to improve their own economic circumstances, and in turn, their lives.
At its core, entrepreneurship is about optimism. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has said, "Entrepreneurship is a way of looking at the world and seeing not just obstacles, but opportunities; not just the world as it is, but the world as it could be." Young people are inherently optimistic, creative, energetic, and passionate. Entrepreneurship can therefore be a vehicle for economic development, but equally important is that it is a powerful form of empowerment. Taking an idea from creation to realization allows young people to create and own their innovation, contribute positively to society, and be their own agents of change.
Empowerment is at the core of our engagement with young people around the world at the U.S. Department of State. Secretary Clinton has made youth issues a priority by creating the Office of Global Youth Issues and asking me to ensure that our youth focused programs are sustained, coordinated and have meaningful impact. We focus on elevating youth issues and youth voices, engaging directly with young people, and offering tools that bolster the efforts of young people who want to be change makers in their communities.
There is perhaps no more critical region in the world to address youth unemployment than the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). According to the World Economic Forum, the region needs to create 75 million jobs by 2020 just to keep employment close to current levels. The MENA region has one of the world's youngest workforces, with more than half of the population under the age of 25. Recent polling has shown that fair pay and efforts to help bolster entrepreneurship in the region are high priorities among Arab youth.
This week, the U.S. government is partnering with the government of the United Arab Emirates to host the third annual Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) in Dubai. The GES is the leading U.S. government-supported forum for promoting economic growth through entrepreneurship. It connects entrepreneurs, investors, universities, and policymakers to catalyze partnerships and exchange ideas to encourage economic growth and strengthen ties. Recognizing that young entrepreneurs are a critical component of this audience, the State Department is playing a leading role in the Young Entrepreneur Forum at the GES.
The sessions at the Young Entrepreneur Forum are highlighting successful young entrepreneurs, emphasizing peer and mentor networks, and helping budding innovators develop their ideas and their capacity to realize them. The State Department is also launching Startup Youth, an initiative that, in coordination with the private sector, will provide programs and events to foster entrepreneurship around the world to facilitate opportunities for young entrepreneurs to take their ideas from creation to realization.
We are at a tipping point when it comes to economic engagement with young people, and we cannot let this opportunity pass us by. We must avoid letting this generation of young people become what U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has warned could be a "scarred generation." It is critical to harness the potential of this moment with action from governments, the private sector, and especially young people themselves. The U.S., I believe, has a significant role to play in partnering with young people to make this happen.

Elba said Monday that acting as Mandela in "Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" was a gift and that he read a lot to understand the man who spent 27 years in jail under white minority rule and guided South Africa to all-race elections in 1994 that propelled Mandela to the presidency.
Elba spoke at the Nelson Mandela Foundation in Johannesburg. The film, based on Mandela's autobiography, will be released in South Africa in late November before opening in the U.S. and other markets.
Mandela, 95, is critically ill and being treated by doctors at his Johannesburg home.

(1) The United States should support Hong Kong's participation in all appropriate multilateral conferences, agreements, and organizations in which Hong Kong is eligible to participate.

Fort Wayne, Ind (21Alive) - This afternoon, runners pounded the pavement at Summit Middle School to help bring a world-class trail network to Fort Wayne.
Money raised for the second Annual Trail Blazer 5k-10k will help unlock millions of dollars in matching grants. And in the next few years, leaders hope to add six miles of trails in each quadrant of the city.
That would connect more of the 70 miles of existing trails, which were used nearly half a million times in 2012 alone.
It can cost up to one million dollars to build one mile of trails. That's about $170 a foot.

They discuss the economic baloney of mainstream economists, the failure of most to understand the potential for mass inflation given the money supply currently sitting around in bank reserves, the reality of the business cycle and the politicians and medias failure to grasp it, and why none of us should make sweeping predictions about how the future will unfold, even if we do understand economics, since human action and the flexibility of markets are impossible to quantify.
