I guess you could, but it wouldn't be very efficient. XML is too verbose for that purpose. I'd rather choose export and compress the dump file before transferring it to the other side.---
"It does not work" is not a valid problem statement.

Cures for cancer and AIDS can wait because scientists are working on the problems that really plague the world. For example, we may FINALLY be able to rid ourselves of those annoying little condom packages in favor of a spray on latex system that is akin to sticking your Special Purpose into a small (how small is debatable) car wash. It, the aforementioned Special Purpose, will be sprayed with latex from all sides.
No word on whether or not Motel 6 will be installing these devices in all of their rooms.

The present invention is related to a recessed light fixture which is rotatably adjustable in order to mount a lamp for directing light downwardly or at an angle relative to the vertical axis as well as to a housing structure allowing easy access to the junction boxes after installation of the recessed light fixture.
Various recessed light fixtures are known to allow mounting of the fixture above the ceiling while also providing for rotational adjustment of the light fixture in combination with pivoting of the light fixture about a horizontal axis. See for example U.S. Pat. No. 5,562,343 which allows for rotation of the lamp about a vertical axis up to about 355� while also allowing providing a vertical pivoting mechanism which allows pivoting from about 0� to 45� vertical tilt of the lamp within the lamp holder assembly. These systems allow rotation of the lamp about the horizontal and vertical axis in order that the user may align a light to user defined and required applications.
It is frequently the case while allowing rotation about a vertical axis to prevent continued rotation beyond 360� in order to prevent damage to the electrical wires. Such rotational stop mechanisms typically restrict rotation of the lamp and tilt assembly to something less than 360� as the various stationary stop abutments must be taken into account when measuring the rotational deflection. This rotational deflection or reduction, which must be taken into account, is typically the thickness of the engagement mechanisms preventing rotation beyond usually about 355�.
In most recessed light fixtures, it is additionally standard to enclose the light fixture with a rigid housing assembly, the rigid housing assembly having junction boxes affixed thereto for wiring connections and other electronic components. The standard housing designs and junction boxes typically have very restricted or limited access to them after installation, thereby preventing wiring modifications once the recessed light fixture is installed about the ceiling.
Additional prior art light fixtures fail to incorporate the ability to vertically adjust the position of the lamp relative to the luminaire fixture pan or frame thereby keeping the lamp in the same stationary position relative to the pan and not allowing for vertical adjustment therewith. This may be undesirable in instances wherein the various tilt of the lamp about a horizontal axis causes the lamp to be cut off due to the trim or reflector placement or with regards to thick ceiling applications.
Additionally, most prior art devices which allow for rotation of the lamp holder about a vertical axis, do not provide for a smooth rotational surface to provide an easy rotation of the lamp relative to the fixture pan due to the metal to metal contact of the various surfaces and mechanical structures involved.
It is therefore desirable to provide a recessed light fixture which has components and mechanical structures which overcome these drawbacks and limitations of prior art constructions.
The present invention relates to a recessed light fixture which has a frame or pan, the frame or pan having an aperture therein, the pan supporting a rotatable lamp holder mechanism allowing adjustment and rotation of the lamp about the vertical axis while also allowing rotation of the lamp about a horizontal axis. The lamp holder mechanism is retained onto the pan by virtue of first and second support legs which are held in place on a rotation ring. The rotation ring allowing rotation of the lamp about the vertical axis up to about 364�.
Another aspect of the present invention is a rotation ring which is held in place in between a ring clamp and the top surface of the fixture pan, the rotation ring supporting the lamp holder mechanism and captured in between a ring clamp and a smooth slip disk allowing easy rotation about the vertical axis.
Another aspect of the present invention allows for vertical repositioning of the lamp holder mechanism by virtue of first and second slid tab locking mechanisms which engage the first and second legs of the lamp holder mechanism thereby allowing the lamp and trim ring to be adjusted in various vertical positions relative to the pan of the luminaire.
An even further aspect of the present invention is related to the braking mechanism wherein the rotation ring, while allowing rotation beyond 360�, allows for the rotation ring to be locked into place preventing drift of the rotation ring and lamp about a vertical axis by engaging a brake mounted on the rotation ring contacting the surface of the pan or other structure and thereby preventing additional rotation about the vertical axis. The brake may be engaged by access through the aperture after installation of the fixture and positioning in both the horizontal and vertical directions.
An even further object of the present invention is the luminaire housing wherein the luminaire housing has more than one junction box, each of the junction boxes accessible through the aperture in the pan after installation into the ceiling. The junction boxes may be readily accessible from the interior of the pan by virtue of being mounted on hinges wherein each of the junction boxes swings inwardly into the interior of the housing over the aperture and is thereby accessible through the aperture after installation. Such access to the interior of the pan, after installation, prevents the necessity of removal of the entire fixture for electrical modification or changes. A wiring junction box and a transformer junction box may be directly accessible and may be swiveled into the interior of the pan, over the pan or frame aperture, to allow for maintenance access since each have a hinge on a first side allowing it to be swiveled or rotated inwardly into the interior of the housing.
An even further aspect of the present invention is a removable transformer plate in combination with a hinged transformer junction box such that the transformer plate, once installed, containing the transformer, may be removed easily from the interior of the housing after installation of the luminaire above the ceiling. The transformer junction box may be accessed through the aperture in the pan and in the ceiling, the transformer junction box swiveled into the interior of the housing and the transformer plate with the transformer mounted thereon may be readily removed and exchanged with a replacement transformer. All wiring and necessary access is available from the interior of the housing through the aperture in the pan and the ceiling thereby allowing modification of the electrical components and change out as necessary after installation.
An even further aspect of the present invention is a rotatable stop mechanism which has limited rotation and which is mounted onto a stationary ring clamp thereby allowing for rotation of the rotation ring beyond 360� due to an outwardly extending tab positioned on the rotation ring. The rotatable stop mechanism contacts upwardly extending lances or abutments on either side thereby preventing or restricting additional rotation and allowing rotation of the rotation ring and thereby the lamp beyond 360� as may be necessary.
The lamp holder mechanism of the present invention has an annular socket holder ring for retention of the lamp. The lamp holder mechanism has a first and second upwardly extending legs which are ladder like and which have a plurality of notches formed therein for receiving leg retention tabs which are inserted through slidable leg holders or slidable tabs thereby engaging each leg and positioning the lamp in the requisite vertical position relative to the pan. Thus, after installation, the lamp may be adjusted in a rotational position anywhere between about 0� and 364� while also being adjustable along a horizontal axis anywhere from 0� to 45�. Finally, the entire lamp holder mechanism and assembly may be adjusted along the vertical axis and retained therewith by virtue of the slide tabs which engage the first and second legs of the lamp holder mechanism.
The recessed fixture with a hinged door and rotatable lamp is generally shown in the figures.
The assembled fixture pan 10, depicted in
As is commonly understood, after installation behind the ceiling line and drywall of the ceiling around the aperture formed by plaster ring 111, a trim and reflector piece 14 is inserted into the aperture defined by the plaster ring 111 to provide a finished appearance for the recessed fixture with hinged door and rotatable lamp 100.
As can be seen from
Additionally, the socket holder 42, correspondingly carrying the lamp 102, may be rotated about a horizontal axis defined by the hinges 112 by virtue of worm gear drive 35 depicted in
As can be understood, the rotation ring 52 allows the socket holder 42 and corresponding lamp 102 to be rotated about a vertical axis, but only to a limited extent. Continuous rotation about said vertical axis would allow compromising of the electrical connections to the lamp 102. Thus, rotational stop 57, which is mounted to the ring clamp 54, contacts stop tab 62 and allows for 364� rotation, but prevents additional rotation beyond a predefined limit.
The entire assembled fixture pan 10 is then surrounded by the housing 80 which, as shown in
The recessed fixture with hinged doors and rotatable lamp 100 when assembled on the fixture pan or frame as depicted in
The rotation ring 52 has extending outwardly therefrom stop tab 62 which is designed to allow rotation of the rotation ring and hence the lamp about a vertical axis to a limited extent. It is preferable to prevent continuous rotation of said rotation ring due to electrical connections to the lamp. Thus, stop tab 62 extends outwardly from the rotation ring for contacting of a stop member or other device. Rotation less than 360� however, may be undesirable in that upon installation of the assembled fixture 100, fine adjustment and rotation may be necessary at 360� to 364� about said vertical axis. Thus, a moveable rotational stop may be desirable wherein the rotational stop allows continued rotation of the rotation ring 52 beyond 358�.
In the present design, the rotation ring 52 has an outwardly extending stop tab 62 for contacting with a rotational stop 57, the rotational stop 57 extending inwardly and mounted on a ring clamp 54 and separated from the top surface of the pan 12. The rotational stop 57 may rotate to a limited degree when the rotation ring 52 is rotated in both the counter-clockwise and clockwise direction, as is depicted in
In the rotation ring 52 of the present design, the rotational stop is mounted on the ring clamp 54 and allows for rotation of the ring and lamp beyond 360�, as is depicted in
Conversely, as depicted in
As depicted in
The slip disc 50 may be a Teflon washer or similar material which has a reduced coefficient of friction as compared to the top surface of the pan 12. The slip disc 50, as may be understood, may also be integrated directly into the pan 12 surrounding the aperture formed therein and need not necessarily be a separate washer construct as depicted. It is desirable to merely provide a surface which allows ready rotation of the rotation ring 52 about the aperture formed in the pan or frame 12. Various other structures may be utilized including an integrated slip surface on the top surface of the pan or a depending C-shaped channel extending downward from the ring clamp.
This channel extending from the ring clamp 54 may be utilized within which the rotation ring 52 slides, the channel or groove having a reduced coefficient of friction allowing easy rotation of the rotation ring therein. In such equivalent construct however, the rotation ring 52 has a lower surface which contacts an upper surface having a reduced coefficient of friction thereby allowing for easy rotation of the rotation ring 52 relative to a stationary surface therebelow.
Once positioned in the proper orientation and rotational position, it may be desirable to fix the lamp 102 in place and prevent inadvertent movement or continued rotation caused by biasing of the power cords 107 or 109 or other forces. In order to prevent additional rotation or movement of the rotation ring 52, particularly as a result of the reduced friction of the slip disk 50, and mechanical brake 60 is provided and mounted to the rotation ring 52. As is seen in
As can be understood, rotation of the brake screw 63 in either direction causes the U-shaped brake member 60 to rise and lower through the brake tab 63A, as both legs of the U-shaped brake member 60 extends through the brake tab 63A on either side of the aperture receiving the brake screw 63. Upon rotation of the brake screw 63, the U-shaped brake member moves upward and downwards clockwise rotation of the brake screw forces the inverted U-shaped brake member 60 downward causing each of the legs to contact the innermost surface of the pan 12 thereby locking the rotation ring 52 in place. Alternatively, counter-clockwise rotation of brake screw releases the brake from such contact and allows rotation of the ring 52.
After installation, the brake screw 63 is readily accessible through the aperture formed in the pan 12 and, as mentioned, the spring positioned between the brake tab 63A and the U-shaped brake member 60 causes the U-shaped brake member to be biased upwardly away from the top surface of the pan. After installation however and positioning of the lamp in the desired location, clockwise rotation of the brake screw compresses the spring between the brake tab 63A and the U-shaped brake member 60 and forces each leg of the brake member downward until it contacts the top surface of the pan thereby locking the rotation ring in position and preventing further rotation. Similarly, unthreading of the brake screw 63 releases the brake from contacting the top surface of the pan 12 and allows rotation and adjustment of the lamp and rotation ring 52.
As shown in
By bending the brake tab 63A upward and inward, as depicted in the figures, easy access to the brake screw is maintained and the brake may be implemented readily by turning of the brake screw 63 thereby lowering the U-shaped brake 60 causing the brake to travel downward through the retention apertures in the brake tab 63A and causing the lower end of the legs of the U-shaped brake member 60 to contact the upper surface of the pan 12 thereby preventing further or continued rotation of the rotation ring 52. The vertically traveling brake member 60 contacts the upper surface of the pan and thereby limits additional rotation. The design of the inverted U-shaped brake member 60 further provides two points of contact to stabilize the brake member and minimize the surface area that the force is distributed over thereby reducing the amount of pressure required to completely restrict rotation of the rotation ring.
The lamp holder mechanism 30, particularly shown in
The annular socket holder 42, as shown in
The lamp holder mechanism 30 further has upwardly extending first lamp holder leg 36 and upwardly extending second lamp holder leg 37 which extend upward from trim ring 32, the legs 36 and 37 allowing the lamp holder mechanism 30 to be installed into the rotation ring 52 and rotatable therewith. Each of the legs 36, 37 may be ladder type legs having a plurality of notches or apertures 38 formed therein.
In the design of the present invention and the lamp holder mechanism 30, the first and second leg 36 and 37 extend upward and attach to the rotation ring 52 by the first leg holder 58 and second leg holder 59. As can be seen in
First and second slide tabs work in the following manner. Each slide tab 58, 59 slides inwardly relative to the rotation ring 52. When in the full inward position, each of the first and second legs 36, 37 of the lamp holder mechanism 30 extend through the slide tabs aperture 47. By virtue of plurality of notches 41 in each of the legs 36, 37, the lamp holder mechanism 30 may be positioned vertically as desired by the user. Thus, if a thicker ceiling or deeper lamp position is required, the lamp holder mechanism 30 may be in the full up position as shown in
Thus, to properly vertically install the lamp holder mechanism 30 in the correct position, each of the slide tabs or leg holders 58, 59 are pushed inwardly to open the capturing apertures 47 which receive each of the legs 36, 37. The legs are inserted from the bottom of the pan upward through each of the slide tabs 58, 59 and once in the proper vertical position, each of the slide tabs 58, 59 are pushed outwardly away from the center point of the aperture until the leg retention tabs 64 are inserted into the appropriate notch 41 of the legs 36, 37.
As shown in
Further, referring to
First tab aperture is provided to hold the slide tab 58 into position when it is pushed inwardly disengaging from the leg of the lamp holder mechanism 30. Thus, when the slide tab is pushed inwardly, the U-shaped portion of the latch spring 61, shown in
The slidable tab design of the present invention utilizes laterally sliding engagement tabs 58, 59 to engage ladder shaped legs of a lamp holder mechanism for raising and lowering the lamp holder mechanism as desired. As shown in
Finally, in regards to the latch springs 61 which are utilized bias or retain the slidable tabs 58, 59, as previously mentioned, the outer portion of each of the latch spring 61 has a U-shaped deflection which rests into one of the apertures 65, 66 formed in the slide tabs 58, 59. At the opposite distal end of the latch spring 61 is an upwardly and inwardly directing biasing portion which engages the corresponding leg as desired. However, this portion of the latch spring may be designed not enter into the interior of the notch or may be slidable therein for easy removal of the legs from the appropriate slide tabs 58, 59. Further, by providing each of the first and second tab apertures 65 and 66, the latch spring 61 may be utilized to lock the slide tab in appropriate position, whether engaging the legs or disengaging the legs, and maintaining such position due to the operable connection between the U-shaped portion of the latch spring 61 and the apertures 65, 66 of the slide tabs 58, 59.
Operation of the slide tab 59 is depicted more closely in
Alternative construction of each of the individual legs and the engagement with the slide tabs is depicted in
Thus, in these figures, it is seen that the interface between the rotating ring 52 and the legs 36 and 37 of the lamp holding mechanism 30 is such that the lamp holder mechanism 30 may be readily removed or engaged into the rotating ring 52. Further, as is seen in

As shown in
As shown in
Further, primary junction box door 84 serves to form a portion of the side wall of the housing 80 where an opening is cut to provide access into the junction box 83.
The door 84 hinges or revolves about hinge point 85 over the aperture in the frame 12 such that a hand can reach the wiring therein. After removal of the wing nut retaining the door 84 to the housing side wall, rewiring may then take place. Additionally, the side wall of the housing adjacent the transformer junction box 90 is similarly opened. Thus, the housing 80 is fully enclosed over the frame after closing the doors 84 and 99.
Turning to
By providing hinged door access to both junction boxes, namely the primary junction box 83 and the transformer junction 90, maintenance of the electrical components of the assembled fixture 100 may readily occur. The transformer may be replaced and rewired as necessary after installation and after placement behind the ceiling line while also allowing direct ready wiring access to the primary junction box 83 if necessary. All of this access may occur after installation of the fixture 100 behind the ceiling line and without damage to the ceiling. Such access occurs after removal of the lamp holder mechanism 30, lamp 102 and lamp enclosure 106 along with associated structures such that the assembly 30 is removed and the aperture is opened and clear for entry.
Transformer junction box has also, as seen, retention lip 94 which is merely an open channel for receiving a bottom edge of the transformer plate 93 thereby making the transformer plate 93 as well as the transformer 91 directly affixed thereto readily removable from the transformer junction box. Likewise, interior access to the primary junction box and associated wiring as well as the temperature switch and other electronics may be had.

Holiday In Samoa
Things to Do in Samoa
Ever stared up at lush green palms as you float effortlessly 30 m below sea level? If this is your longtime fantasy, Samoa holidays have got you covered. To Sua Trench sinkhole, on Upolu, is a combination of thrilling and chilling—once you get over the heart-pounding climb down the ladder, the pools are oh-so-relaxing. After your soak, head to the Samoan Cultural Village in Apia to see cooking demonstrations and even live tattooing, if you're lucky (or not so lucky, depending on how you feel about needles).
Look into Samoa car hire deals on lastminute.com.au and take yourself on a tour of the less-developed Savai'i Island. Swim among the Afu A'au waterfalls on the south shore to feel like you're living in The Beach (no Leo provided, unfortunately). On the northern coast, treat yourself to some creep factor at Sale'aula's eerie, lava-ruined churches and the "Virgin's Grave". The girl buried here was purportedly so pure that the lava flowed around her grave. (There are no such requirements just for visiting, though you should ask the locals for permission.)
Shopping, Dining & Nightlife
The Apia flea markets are the place to be to shop 'til you drop, island-style. Find wood carvings, kava bowls, lavalava sarongs and unique jewellery (which may look like teeth, but don't worry, they're probably not). If you purchase Samoa packages to Savai'i, stay near the village of Salelologa, which has the island's only ferry terminal, for the best shopping. Pick up a chilly niu (drinking coconut) and browse the produce markets for breadfruit, paw paws, ladyfinger bananas and other funny-sounding fruits.
Speaking of food, there's no shortage of it here thanks to fertile volcanic soil and the bounty of the sea. At fia fia (feast) nights, pretty much anything comes wrapped and baked in banana leaves: crayfish, octopus, tuna and more, with plenty of coconut cream and banana. Western-style cuisine is also available for those who want a taste of home.
If it's not fia fia night, your Samoa holiday can still have badass entertainment; just ask around to find the local fire knife dancing club. Yes, you read that right! Siva afi involves spinning flaming, towel-covered knives—and there ain't no party like a fire knife party, cuz a fire knife party don't stop (OK, it does eventually). Looking for even more excitement? Both islands have plenty of opportunity for you to chug Coco Locos and boogie the night away. On Apia, head to Beach Road; on Savai'i, you'll find the most action in Salelologa.
What's Next?
It's easy to see why Samoans are called "the happy people" and you can join them with just a few clicks of the mouse. Check out Samoa holiday deals on lastminute.com.au and get ready to party like a Polynesian—just don't try to bring fire knives on the plane.

Something worth considering before the music industry—or any other creative endeavor—goes on suing their own customers: users of P2P file-sharing networks buy 30% more music than folks who don't share songs online.
Or so says The American Assembly, a think tank tied to Columbia University.
U.S. P2P users have larger collections than non-P2P users (roughly 37% more). And predictably, most of the difference comes from higher levels of 'downloading for free' and 'copying from friends/family.'
But some of it also comes from significantly higher legal purchases of digital music than their non-P2P using peers–around 30% higher among US P2P users. Our data is quite clear on this point and lines up with numerous other studies: The biggest music pirates are also the biggest spenders on recorded music.

Algeria celebrates World Cup entry after tense match
Sudan staged a security clampdown on Wednesday as Algerian fans celebrated victory in a tense match against Egypt which clinched Africa`s last place in the 2010 World Cup finals.
Algiers: Sudan staged a security clampdown on Wednesday as Algerian fans celebrated victory in a tense match against Egypt which clinched Africa`s last place in the 2010 World Cup finals.
Thousands of Egyptian and Algerian fans flew in for the play-off in Khartoum which Algeria won 1-0. Police feared a repeat of violence around Saturday`s match between the two rivals in Cairo, when 20 Algerian fans were injured and three players suffered cuts after Egyptians stoned their team bus.
Jubilant Algerians waved flags and fireworks, and drove through the streets of the Sudanese capital cheering their first qualification for the World Cup finals in almost quarter of a century.
"There is no happiness in the world more than this," said Algerian cook Farid Nimeiri working in the hotel hosting his national team.
Fans said it was a tight game and they would now apply for visas to South Africa, which will host the 2010 finals.
"Technically speaking it was a very poor game ... because there was a lot of pressure on the players on both sides," said Farouk Eouaou who came from Dubai for the match.
Algerian defender Madjid Bougherra said the team had won "justice." Coach Rabah Saadane said he was exhausted but was happy the mission was over.
At least five fans were stretchered away with minor injuries during celebrations, witnesses said.
Westerners and U.N. staff were urged to stay well away from the stadium as 15,000 extra police kept tight control over 35,000 supporters in Khartoum`s Al Merreikh stadium.
Heavily armed security forces fired tear gas to chase away thousands of Sudanese fans waiting outside, witnesses said.
Egyptian fans filed quietly out of the stadium and supporters said they were surprised and impressed with the security operation.
Residents feared violence could follow the match but police stationed themselves throughout the capital.
Egyptian Information Minister Anas el-Feki was quoted by the MENA state news agency as saying on television that President Hosni Mubarak was personally following events and that planes would be sent to Khartoum to fly fans home as soon as possible.
Cairo Violence "Uncivilised"
Algerian Minister of National Solidarity Djamal Ould Abbes called the Cairo violence "unacceptable and uncivilised", and called on the governing body to take action.
"FIFA must suspend Egypt for one or two years from any match," he told Reuters. "Shame, shame, shame."
In Khartoum ecstatic Algerians were kept well away from Egyptian fans after some had made threatening gestures at rival supporters. In the stadium, Algerians taunted their opponents with posters saying "Misrael", a mixture of the Arabic words for Egypt and Israel.
Hospital sources said fans had been treated for minor injuries as scuffles broke out before the match.
The bitterness between the two nations over the Cairo violence spilled over into officialdom with Algeria`s minister of sport calling it "a wound ... for the Arab world."
At Sudan`s Presidential Palace, the head of Algeria`s football association publicly rejected a peaceful overture from his Egyptian counterpart, walking away from Samir Zahir who proposed to kiss him to put the troubles behind them.
In the Algerian capital, thousands of people spilled out into the streets as soon as the final whistle was blown.
Traffic came to a standstill at one roundabout as people jumped out of their cars and danced in the street.
Algeria last qualified for a World Cup final in 1986, and in the years after was racked by a conflict between Islamists and government forces which killed thousands.

Tennessee lawmakers on Wednesday gave final legislative approval to a proposed 20-week abortion ban that now heads to Gov. Bill Haslam and would create one of the most stringent abortion laws in the nation.
The House voted along nearly party lines after a lengthy debate. The sponsor, Rep. Matthew Hill, R-Jonesborough, said the bill is similar to laws in 20 other states that prohibit abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
The bill would require a test for viability and gestational age before a doctor could perform an abortion and would subject doctors who violate the law to a felony charge that can carry up to 15 years in prison.
The Senate passed the bill on Monday.
State Attorney General Herbert Slatery said in an opinion that it and another abortion-related bill that was filed this year were "constitutionally suspect," but was prepared to defend the law if challenged in court.
Slatery also declined to enforce two other abortion-related measures.
The Tennessee Medical Association, a group that represents and lobbies on behalf of physicians has been neutral on the issue.

Easy Prey // Amycus and Lily
Amycus Carrow shoved his hands into his pockets, the fingers of his right hand curling around the slender wand that he kept there. He wandered along the corridors around the dungeons, sighing dramatically as boredom threatened to take over. He had a free period but Alecto was no where to be found. He had a sneaking suspicion that she may have been catching up with some of her friends but even so, he couldn't help the lonely pang from ringing through his heart, regardless of how selfish it was.
He wandered down the corridors aimlessly when he heard chatter coming from one of the potions classrooms. It sounded like Slughorn was with a student. What could they be talking about? He wondered, edging forward. He pressed his back along the cold wall and moved towards the class slowly, ensuring his footfalls left little noise.
He peered inside the classroom once he reached the door and saw his potions Professor and Head of House inside chattering happily to that filthy little mud blood Evans. He scowled, his eyes burning hate into her as she stood there happy and ignorant to his presence.
Amycus had been greatly offended by the girls performance in potions. She was by far one of Slughorn's favourites and that really did bother him, especially considering the fact that his sister had to worm her brother into his elite little club. What right did a mud blood have over him to be chosen before him to be a member? His hand clenched into a fist as he gritted his teeth, seething at her.
Suddenly Slughorn cut their conversation short, leaving Amycus to slink back into the shadows. He could hear the mud blood telling Slughorn to go land that she would finish tidying the room and then Slughorn thanking her. "Not today bitch." He hissed, waiting for Slughorn to dart past him. The Professor was so blind that he couldn't even see Amycus beneath his nose… Amycus checked the coast was clear before slinking into the class and drawing his wand.
He tapped it on the edge of a desk, a loud sound ripping through the still and silent room. "Hello Evans." He greeted her in a dark tone with a smirk to match.

The Armenian government hastily dismissed on Wednesday a reputedly violent bodyguard of Suren Khachatrian, the controversial governor of the Syunik province, after it emerged that he also works as deputy director of a local public school.
Zarzand Nikoghosian's hitherto unknown position at the Secondary School No. 6 of the provincial capital Kapan was revealed by Armenian media earlier in the day. The revelation caused shock among political commentators and on social media, with many pointing to Nikoghosian's history of violent conduct directly or indirectly connected with his boss.
In particular, Nikoghosian was arrested, along with Khachatrian's notorious son Tigran, two years ago after shooting to death one man and wounding another outside the governor's villa in Goris, another Syunik town. They both were charged with murder and illegal arms possession only to be freed two months later. Law-enforcement authorities said their actions constituted legitimate self-defense.
The bodyguard, who is officially listed as an "assistant" to Suren Khachatrian, has also been linked with other violent incidents in recent years. As recently in July, he admitted vandalizing a Kapan shop belonging to one of four men arrested earlier this summer on charges of attempting to assassinate Khachatrian.
Just hours after the shock news made headlines on Armenian news websites, Education Minister Armen Ashotian announced that he has discussed the matter Syunik officials and that Nikoghosian has been dismissed as deputy director of the Kapan school. "I want to thank media outlets for their speedy work," Ashotian wrote on his Facebook page. He did not comment further.
Speaking to RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am) shortly before Ashotian's statement, the school director, Marine Davtian, said that she hired Nikoghosian to work as her deputy recently because of his "moral authority" among schoolteachers, students and their parents.
"Believe me, the children love and respect him a lot," Davtian said from Kapan. "He is also respected by their parents and teachers."
The school principal could not be reached for comment after the announcement of Nikoghosian's dismissal.
The 37-year-old bodyguard, who is not a Syunik native, has also worked in the school as a physical education teacher for the past couple of years. The Syunik governor told Armtimes.com later on Wednesday that he will retain that part-time job.

This place is like none of the other 'chiringuitos' – beach bars – along Muro beach. People travel to the north of Mallorca just for the Ponderosa Beach experience, so booking a table well in advance is essential in high season.
Ponderosa Beach
English, Spanish, German
If you drive to Ponderosa Beach, follow the sign off a roundabout for Ses Casetes des Capellans. Pass through this cluster of small holiday and weekend homes and leave your car in the parking area – which can be very busy over high-season weekends. You're almost there. At the end of Ponderosa's boardwalk, Alcúdia bay and glittering Mediterranean views greet you.
The simple but cool décor of Ponderosa Beach includes colourful wall-mounted old 'persianas' and white tables and chairs. Kick off those shoes and sink your toes into the sand beneath you. Great music – with DJ sets and regular live artistes – adds to the ambience. Local DJs include Ponderosa's own Fernando Gullón; others come from as far away as London and Madrid. In the summer months, a 'shop' sells cool beach clothing and accessories.
In 2016 Ponderosa Beach raised its culinary game when it appointed three new chefs. Abraham Artigas was formerly sous chef at the trendy Bambhudda in Ibiza; Kike Martí is an award-winning 'maestro arrocero' from Valencia, and pastry chef Alejandra Cevallos came here from the Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel & Spa.
Ponderosa Beach sticks to the '0km cuisine' concept. This means they buy high-quality ingredients (organic where possible) direct from local producers. The delicious and well-presented Mediterranean food has some tasty Asian touches. The à la carte menu offers starters, Kike's highly recommended paellas, salads, pastas, fish, meat, and Alejandra's superb home-made desserts. Moreish cocktails come in a trendy glass jar or cellophane bag with a straw.
If you can't get a table reservation for lunch or dinner, how about breakfast? From around 09:30h daily you can feast on a choice of filled rolls, muesli and yogurt with fruit, pancakes, eggs, toast, and natural juices. Could there be a more pleasurable location to start your day?
All of this is only part of the Ponderosa experience. What makes Ponderosa Beach even more special is the people who work here. The servers may look cool and laidback, but they're super-efficient as well as friendly. Their smiles are everywhere … but they are, after all, working in one of Mallorca's best beach eateries.
In 2016, Ponderosa Beach's season ends October 22nd.
We love…their social conscience: two of their dishes are 'solidarity' dishes, the sale of which supports two NGOs off the island.
