Harry Potter - Done
by 
jayb
I finished harry potter. I spend about 6 hours on the plane back from China reading. I has to be the quickest I’ve finished any of the HP books. I won’t say anything about the story other than…I though some of the other books where better. Some of the language used in this book was too adult for children.

Librarians recommend books for ‘Harry Potter’ fans
by jayb
I little summer reading for Harry Potter fans.
The American Library Association, through its Association for Library Service to Children division, released a recommended reading list today for “Harry Potter” fans waiting impatiently for the July 16 release of the sixth JK Rowling novel in the series. The reading list was created by children’s librarians using the following criteria: “books that have similar story elements and replicate accessibility, tone and flavor; and books that are similar in theme but may be more complex.”

I Feel Like I’m Taking Crazy Pills!
by jayb
You tell them Stone!
This is insane. It ended some 140 years ago, yet companies today are being punished for sins of the past.
Wachovia had to research its past in order to comply with a new Chicago ordinance that requires any business that is going for a city contract to disclose whether they profited from slavery. Slavery that ended 140 years ago! Wachovia said that they had from a company they acquired, Georgia Railroad and Banking Company and the Bank of Charleston, that it had taken slaves as collateral for loans issued over 140 years ago. Now get this, the state that this bank was in and at the time slavery was legal so the company did nothing wrong, yet today the company that had no direct tie to the slaves only purchased out the company at some point, must say that it has a slave past. This is ridiculous. Can you imagine being held liable for what your forefathers had done? Australia would have to put itself in jail under this kind of thought.

The Big Picture: A Chat with Bruce Campbell
by jayb
Bruce Campbell rocks!
Is Bruce Campbell the world’s coolest actor? Daulton Dickey thinks so. Dickey takes a look at Campbell’s new book before attempting a brief chat with the actor without asking about Evil Dead. It’s harder than it sounds.

All Consuming
by jayb
Here’s a Feedster like site for everyone that keeps a list of their currently reading books.
Review from [Lockergnome Windows Daily]
{Blogged books} All Consuming is an aggregation Web site that will
let you know what the weblog community is reading or discussing.
If you have a weblog, there is a “Currently Reading” JavaScript
include to put on your Web site to feature the most recently
updated item from your “currently reading” list and create a feed
of your favorite books. The hottest book mentioned on weblogs is
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which is what I’m
currently reading. Yes, this muggle has fallen into the Harry
Pottermania trap, and relishes the series. [Meryl] [Lockergnome Windows Daily]
