RedFlu has sent us new, very detailed information on the current plan for the beginning of Order of the Phoenix. These could be considered spoilers by some, so we have a link below to take you to the description. At most, this is a rough plan for the arrangement of the beginning of the film and chances are it will adjusted. Nonetheless, an interesting read for anyone interesting in seeing the plan so far for the film!

Yahoo! News is reporting that actress Emma Watson has achieved eight A*s and two As on her GCSEs. Congrats, Emma!
For those of us in America who are clueless as to what the GCSEs are, the General Certificate of Secondary Education is a set of British qualifications (sometimes focused around Math, English, and Science) taken by secondary school students.
Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

In the first editions of Half-Blood Prince, an error discovered in "An Excess of Phlegm" stated that Hermione received one Exceeds Expectations and ten Outstanding grades in her OWLs. However, she only took ten subjects. Our Potter Encyclopedia had staggered a guess that she took the "Muggle Studies exam and passed it with top marks despite dropping the subject at the end of her third year."
Now, HarryLatino.com reports that this was indeed a genuine error and has been rectified in recent editions of Book 6; it now reads she earned nine Os and one EE. Phew!
