My Review of Harry Potter’s 4th movie
It was a better movie than previous ones. It covers the ‘highlight’ story of the 4th book. The movie offers more funny scenes and also amazing special effects. I give it 4 stars (: Luna lovegood is the character who fails to appear in this movie.

Lemur named after John Cleese
John Cleese has had a newly discovered species of lemur named after him.
The small woolly Avahi cleesei lives on leaves in a remote part of Madagascar, reports the Mirror.
The name is a tribute to the Monty Python star's conservation work, including a documentary about the plight of woolly lemurs.
Urs Thalmann, of the University of Zurich, who discovered the species, said the lemur's long legs were the only physical similarity to the actor, famous for his Silly Walks sketch.
She joked: "Woolly lemurs can't really walk, but they do enjoy silly jumps."
Mr Thalmann speaking to New Scientist magazine, added: "I thought surely he must be a lemur fancier."

I'm sure bagus (oranye.net wapmaster) would love to have a lemur named after his name :))

School allows beachwear in hot classrooms
Pupils at a German school were allowed to strip down to beachwear after the heating system stuck on full power.
The piping hot radiators left classrooms sweltering in 30 degrees centigrade, even with all of the windows open.
So staff announced children could wear swimwear - including bikinis and swimming shorts - in class until the radiators could be fixed.
The Anne Frank primary school, in Linden, only recently had the expensive digital heating system installed and experts have been unable to identify the problem.
School headmaster Bruno Kraft said: "We have been having problems ever since they installed the new, fully digitalised heating control system."

boy students will fancy this :)

Reds Investigate Dressing Room Recordings
United are investigating a possible bugging incident at Old Trafford after audio tapes were offered to The Sun newspaper.
The tapes were apparently recorded in the home dressing room on Sunday 6 November - the day the Reds beat Chelsea.
The contents reportedly include pre-match and half-time team-talks, plus celebratory comments following the 1-0 victory.
The Sun handed the tapes over to United on Friday evening. Phil Townsend, United's director of communications, commented:
"We are grateful to The Sun for bringing this breach of security and privacy to our attention. We have launched our own investigation and if necessary will involve the police."

Ex-Girlfriend Glued Man's Genitals To His Stomach?
GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania -- A U.S. man is suing his ex-girlfriend for more than $30,000 for gluing his genitals to his abdomen five years ago. Kenneth Slaby of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is suing Gail O'Toole, with whom he broke up in 1999, after dating for 10 months. Slaby then began dating someone else but, according to the lawsuit, O'Toole invited him over to her home on May 7, 2000, where he fell asleep.
When he woke up, Slaby found O'Toole had used Super Glue to stick his genitals to his abdomen, glued his buttocks together and spelled out a profanity on his back in nail polish.
Ms. O'Toole allegedly told him it was payback for their breakup, and he had to walk 1.6 kilometers (not quite a mile) to a gas station to call for help.
"This was not just some petty domestic squabble," said Slaby's lawyer.
O'Toole pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and served six months' probation, but her ex-boyfriend is now suing for damages. O'Toole's lawyer said it was a consensual act and Slaby wasn't permanently damaged.
"This is a case that should have been left in the bedroom," he said.

Reds Jet Out To Paris
United have flown out to France for their must-win Champions League clash with Lille.
With Saturday's crushing defeat at Middlesbrough still fresh in the mind, Sir Alex Ferguson's side will be aiming to prove a point in Paris.
The Reds currently top Group D with five points from three games, but could slip to third if they lose on Wednesday night.
Claude Puel's Lille currently prop up the rest of the group with two points, but showed great resolve in their last outing - a goalless draw at Old Trafford.
The main talking point of the drab affair was Paul Scholes' sending-off which rules him out of the Paris clash.
Scholes joins a long list of absentees which contains injury victims Roy Keane, Ryan Giggs, Gabriel Heinze, Gary Neville, Quinton Fortune, Louis Saha and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The lengthy list means a call-up from the Reserves for Richie Jones, Jonny Evans and Luke Steele, who all make their first appearance in a Champions League squad.
United Squad
Goalkeepers: Howard; Steele; Van der Sar. Defenders: Brown; Richardson; Ferdinand; Bardsley; Silvestre; O'Shea; J Evans; G Pique. Midfielders: Smith; Fletcher; L Miller; R Jones; Park. Forwards: Rooney; van Nistelrooy; Ronaldo; Rossi.
