The winning entry
We got more than 100 entries for our Harry Potter contest, in which we asked young fans to write a short article predicting how the beloved book series would end, but it was 10-year-old Joe Wilson who cast a spell over our judges.
Deathly Hallows - Deathly Indeed
Rita Skeeter reports from an exclusive interview with Harry Potter's own teacher, seer Sybil Trelawney.
In a dramatic resolution to the Harry Potter saga, Draco Malfoy, 17, will turn against his fellows and kill Severus Snape, a former Hogwarts teacher. Harry will duel with a death-eater, while you-know-who sneaks up behind him. The Dark Lord will send a curse at Harry, only to be foiled by the sacrifice of classmate Neville Longbottom, 17.

Wouldn’t it be nice if the most electable candidate was also the most qualified? Let’s not forget that this primary is our chance to select who will repair the intensive damage done by the Neocon Republicans in office. Since Obama’s CHANGE is abstract and directionless, I am voting for the most qualified and experienced candidate who has some old-fashioned “plans.”
Hillary has the skills and know-how to help the working class. She is not a lot of pretty words and vague ideas. Her resume shows that she has a vast amount of experience in solving problems of regular people. Hillary cares. Vote for Hillary.

Obama said “There’s no doubt we took a hit” and that his candidacy has been weakened by some of the negative press he has received by what he described as “reaching” ie: flag pin, hand over heart, Rev.Wright. Then please explain, with clarity why (1)you continue membership in a racist church that preaches ant-white, anti-American, Black Liberation Theology. (2)Flag-pin a respectful jesture for the country you wish to serve. (3)Hand-over heart.Shown in photo are presidential candidates standing at attention while the national anthem is being played. Guess which candidate does not have his hand over his heart? Your correct ..OBAMA. Does he not have any respect for the USA? http://www.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,1662530_1446035,00.html..
Voters… CAVEAT EMPTOR!
