As Lord Voldemort tightens his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds, Hogwarts is no longer a safe haven. Harry suspects perils may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses, and to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague Horace Slughorn, who he believes holds crucial information. Even as the decisive showdown looms, romance blossoms for Harry, Ron, Hermione and their classmates. Love is in the air, but danger lies ahead, and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Note: These are NOT differences between the movie and the book. These are just mistakes from the movie.
- Is that a bicycle seat I see? – During the Quidditch match, while Ron is celebrating a save, the wind blows his robes and reveals a bicycle-like seat attached to his broom.
- Beard – In the scene at the end of the film with Dumbledore on the Astronomy Tower, he initially wears his beard down for a few seconds. For the remainder of the scene, his beard is tied up.
- Missing lens – On several instances throughout the film, Harry’s glasses have no lenses in them – you can only see the frame. One example where this is clearly evident is when Harry and Ron are lying in bed, and Harry is looking at the map showing the footprints. The rest of the scenes show the glasses having lenses in them.
- Beer spillage – In the Three Broomsticks, Slughorn spills some of his beer on the table and Hermione. Moments later when we see a different view of the table, it is completely dry.
- Tape that! – Toward the end of the film, when Harry is lying on the ground near Hagrid’s hut, Snape kicks Harry’s wand away from his hand. Right in the middle of this shot, as he kicks the wand, you can clearly see a square of neon tape where Harry’s wand was placed so that the actor, Alan Rickman, would know where to kick.
- Basin half full or basin half empty? – When Harry takes a scoopful of potion out of the basin, there is still some remaining. After giving this to Dumbledore to drink, the basin appears to be empty, and Harry grabs the locket.
- Is blue the new green? – When Snape casts the Killing Curse, the light emitted is blue and white. In the books and in all the movies prior to this date the Killing Curse, always gives off a green light.
- Off the rails – In the establishing shot before Snape casts the Killing Curse, safety rails are visible on the Astronomy Tower behind Dumbledore. When the camera cuts to Harry’s view of Dumbledore being hit with the spell, the railing is no longer there, and Dumbledore falls right off the tower where the railing once was.
- WWW storename – In the Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes scene, the camera pans across the front of the store, and you can see the name on the front in gold lettering. Later, when Harry, Ron, and Hermione leave the store to follow Draco Malfoy, the store name is no longer present.
- The re-appearing Felix Felicis – During the scene in which Harry takes the Felix Felicis, he empties the vial into his mouth. In the following shot, however, when he speaks to Ron and Hermione, the vial can be seen between his hands completely full and with the stopper still on.
- A change of heart – The heart that Lavender draws on the Hogwarts Express glass door containing her and Ron’s initials differs between shots.
- Smashing! – When Bellatrix smashes the glass in the Great Hall window behind the staff tables, it differs from the subsequent shot when we are shown that the Great Hall is empty.
- Hair troubles – When Dumbledore is talking to Harry about Horcruxes, Dumbledore’s hair is blowing and messy in one shot but fine in the next one.
- Completely ‘armless – When Harry and Dumbledore return from the Horcrux cave, Dumbledore sits down with his arm around Harry’s neck. When Dumbledore asks Harry to go fetch Snape, his arm suddenly disappears. There was no time for him to have moved it.
- Moving mugs – In Hagrid’s hut, when Slughorn and Hagrid are drinking, the cups/bottle on the table change position between shots.
- Dancing debris – When the Death Eaters attack Ollivanders, the debris, fire, and bodies lying on the ground differ between the overhead and next close-up shot.
- Page 10… ish – During the scene in Professor Slughorn’s lesson, the students are told to make a Draught of Living Death, the recipe for which “can be found on page 10.” During the lesson, it is quite clear that Hermione has her book open somewhere in the middle (around page 200).
- Crew rugs – After Draco is escorted out of Slughorn’s party by Snape, and Harry begins to spy on them, you can see crew rugs used to quiet Draco and Snape’s footsteps. The same rugs are visible earlier in the film when Harry and Ron walk down a corridor after Slughorn’s class. – Spotted by former MuggleNet staff member Andrew Sims
- Moving vegetables – After Hagrid passes out in his hut, when Harry tells Slughorn of Lily’s sacrifice, the vegetables behind Harry change position on the shelves.
- Slug Club – During the Slug Club’s dessert, as Slughorn speaks to the students, their ice cream, syrup, thin wafers, spoons, etc. change depending on the camera angle.
- Hairy Potter – When Dumbledore and Harry are talking about Horcruxes, Harry’s hair is nice and combed in one shot. The camera cuts to a side view, and his hair is now messy.
- Vial position – In Potions class, when Slughorn removes the vial of Felix Felicis, he turns to face the class and holds the vial up for the class to see, but in the next shot facing him he holds only the very bottom point of the vial.
- Nice shoes! – At the beginning when Harry and Dumbledore first Disapparate, there is a full shot of them walking up to the entrance of the house. In this shot, you can see Dumbledore’s shoes sticking out of his robe as he walks, but he is actually wearing those blue bags on his shoes, the ones they wear in between takes so as not to damage the set floors.
- Font change – The potions book that Harry gets from Slughorn’s cupboard has the words “This book is property of the Half-Blood Prince” clearly handwritten on the first page. In a later shot the handwriting changes to a more print-like font.
- Number train – In the scene where Draco attacks Harry on the Hogwarts Express, it appears that they shot the scene at different ends of the train compartment and then spliced the different takes together. If you watch the numbers on the wall above the seats, they bounce back and forth from low to high numbers.
- Foam – The foam from Slughorn’s beer, which he spills on his fingers in the Three Broomsticks, dissapears and reappears from different shots.
- Illuminating stuff – When Dumbledore and Harry enter the Muggle house to find Slughorn the lights are all out; the only illumination comes from their wands. They enter the hallway, then both turn toward the living room with their wands in front of them. Despite this, the wall behind them is illuminated without either of them casting a shadow. The lighting in the hallway is obviously coming from a different source, not their wands.
- Frame position – Near the start of the film, when Slughorn shows Harry his collection of framed photographs, the frames change position between the wideshot and close-ups.
- Scarf position – In the memory of the Muggle orphanage, in the corridor when Mrs. Cole says, “Tom, you have a visitor,” Dumbledore’s scarf hangs askew, but in the next shot facing him the scarf hangs properly.
- Hand placement – In the Great Hall, when Lavender’s eyes are shooting daggers at Ron and Hermione, Harry’s arms/hands keep changing position on the table as the three of them speak.
- Harry’s head – Aboard the Hogwarts Express, when Draco petrifies Harry he falls immobilized. Just as Draco kicks him, Harry’s head is positioned farther out in the aisle than previous and following shots.
- Lip-sync – When Ron and Harry are walking down the corridor toward Potions, Ron says, “… Quidditch trials coming up. I need to practice,” but his mouth is not moving and/or not in sync with that dialogue.
- Shoelace – In the living room at the Weasleys’ house, while Harry, Mr. Weasley, Tonks, and Lupin are talking, in the shot facing Lupin, Harry’s shoelace is untied. After a brief cut to a shot facing Tonks and Mr. Weasley (where we can see Harry’s hands), it cuts back to the original angle, and now the shoelace is tied. (This is before Ginny ties Harry’s shoelace much later on.)
- Death toll? – The newspapers in the movie imply that there was a death toll from the bridge collapse at the start of the film, even though when watching the scene, everybody seemed to escape from the bridge safely, and not a single person falls into the water.
- Leg positioning – When Harry, Hermione, and Ron are sitting on the floor talking in Ron’s room at The Burrow, the position of Hermione’s legs changes frequently from cut to cut.
- Different grip – When Slughorn and Harry are speaking at the Three Broomsticks, Slughorn’s grip on the silver mug repeatedly changes. His fingers are either at the top of the mug or at the center of the mug, depending on the camera angle.
- Position change – In the Room of Requirement, when Draco first uncovers the Vanishing Cabinet, the items on the floor behind him change position between the overhead shot and next close-up.
- People on the bridge – During the destruction of the Millennium Bridge, it is full of people, including a lot of school children, walking across. As the bridge begins to wobble, people start to trip up and fall down. When we see the bridge from above, as it is destroyed seconds later, there aren’t any people on it.
- Auror-gate – As Harry and Luna come through the Hogwarts gates, an Auror standing outside begins to walk backward in through the gate. He makes it halfway through, but in the next shot he is still at the end of the gate.
- Handy trick – In the scene with Hagrid and Professor Slughorn, you can see them both moving their hands when talking. Slughorn’s hand often disappears/seems to go right through Hagrid’s arm. A graphics error may have caused this since they probably weren’t filmed together due to sizing issues.
- Tapestry – It has been noticed that at times when Draco is standing in front of the wall for the Room of Requirement, there is a large tapestry there. At other times, the wall is bare.
- Hermione’s hands – At the end of the movie, there is a long shot of Hermione, Ron, and Harry atop the Astronomy Tower. In this shot Hermione’s hands are in different places compared to the previous close-up.
- Next to Neville – In Potions class, when Hermione stands before the cauldron explaining what she is smelling in her close-up, we see Neville behind her with the broad space to his right (viewer’s left) just as she says “spearmint toothpaste.” In the instant cut to the wideshot, Harry is now shoulder to shoulder with Neville.
- Hole-y shirt – In the dormitory, when a lovestruck Ron is obsessing over Romilda, he is wearing a brown tank that has many holes. When Harry brings Ron to Slughorn, Ron is still wearing that shirt, but now some of the holes are gone, and the rest of the holes have changed position.
- Knees-up – At The Burrow, shortly after Harry’s arrival, he, Hermione, and Ron are sitting and chatting. Hermione changes position several times. Notably her knee is up, down, up, etc.
- Paper change – When Harry is in the restaurant and places the newspaper down on the table as he speaks with the waitress, it lies over the table edge (front and side edges), in the next shot it doesn’t, then it does so again.
- Aragog – At Aragog’s funeral, there is a long shot of Slughorn, Hagrid, and Harry standing by Aragog. However, from this angle Aragog is not here. Given the angle you should be able to see Aragog’s body.
- Foam – When Ron is foaming at the mouth, the foam dissapears in some views.
- Visible crew? – When Harry and Dumbledore are standing in the tower, three men are seen to walk across the room on the right.
- Dumbledore’s glasses – In the first of Dumbledore and Harry’s lessons, at the beginning of the scene, you can clearly see that Dumbledore is wearing his glasses, but when Harry enters the room a minute later, Dumbledore is not wearing them.
- Bean – In Potions class, when the students prepare the Draught of Living Death, as Harry tells Hermione, “Crush it, don’t cut it,” the way he holds/squeezes the Sopophorous Bean has instantly changed from the previous shot.
- Swapping hands – At the Three Broomsticks, Slughorn is holding a mug with his left hand when he speaks to Harry, but when he says, “Good to see you, Wallenby,” the mug is suddenly in Slughorn’s right hand, with his left arm down by his side.
- Newspaper placement – In the Great Hall, when Ron sits down with Harry and Hermione before Quidditch, the newspaper Hermione is reading goes from her hand to under her arms, then back again, etc., between shots.
- Flitwick’s hands – When Luna and Harry pass through the Hogwarts gate, the parchment and wand in Flitwick’s hands differs between shots.
- Disappearing debris/leaves – When Harry finds Hermione crying at the bottom of the stairs, with the conjured canaries flying overhead, there are numerous leaves/debris on the lowest steps and near her feet, but in the shots looking down from the top of the stairs the area is clear. (This has nothing to do with the few leaves that blow about.)
- Ron and the rug – After drinking the poison in Slughorn’s office, Ron falls, and in the overhead shots the top of his head is near the rug’s edge, but in side shots his head is well below the large diamond pattern, more than a foot away from the edge.
- Harry’s arm – At The Burrow, when Tonks and Lupin are at the front door with Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, it cuts to an exterior shot of Harry looking out the window with his arm leaning across his knee in front of him, but in the next interior shot his arm is down at his side.
- Harry/Hermione positioning – In Potions class, just before the students go to their cauldrons to prepare their Draught of Living Death, Hermione stands in front of Harry, but in the long shot she is instantly beside him, then she’s suddenly back in front of Harry again.
- Ron’s right arm – In the Great Hall, when Ron (wearing his Quidditch uniform) asks Hermione about the Slug Club, Ron’s right arm lies on the table in front of him in shots from behind, but in shots facing him his right arm is down beside him.
- The locket – When Hermione opens the locket to read the note, the locket and chain’s position changes in her hand between consecutive shots.
- Quibbler position – Aboard the Hogwarts Express, when Luna finds Harry lying on the floor and then speaks with him, the way she holds her wand and The Quibbler differs between shots.
- Dirty pedestal – When Dumbledore gets up to give a speech, the gold owl on his pedestal shakes its head and then spreads its wings, which are perfectly clean. Later during the speech, the wings are shown covered in dried wax from the candles.
- Reflection in eyes – When Slughorn stands before Tom Riddle speaking of seven Horcruxes, as the professor faces the fireplace and says, “This is all hypothetical,” and Tom replies, “It’ll be our little secret,” these close-ups show the square lighting/reflector screen clearly reflected in the eyes.
- Hermione’s position – In the Great Hall before the Quidditch match, in the shots facing Hermione she is sitting opposite the empty place setting beside Ron, but in the shots facing Ron she is directly opposite him. Take note of the goblets, plate of eggs, etc.
- Mark/tape – After Luna and Harry meet and walk off to Slughorn’s party, it pans to Draco on the stairs. It then cuts to Draco walking forward to the wall of the Room of Requirement, and at the start of the shot the actor’s mark is visible on the ground behind him.
- Cup size – When Hagrid and Slughorn are drinking after Aragog’s funeral, Slughorn’s cup is considerably larger than Hagrid’s cup, but after Hagrid passes out Slughorn’s cup is now the same size as Hagrid’s cup.
- The spoon – In the Great Hall, from the time Hermione hits Ron with the book to when a bloody-nosed Harry joins them, the spoon in Hermione’s bowl repeatedly faces the opposite way depending on the angle of the shot.
- Moving debris – When Dumbledore brings Harry to meet Slughorn, the Daily Prophet is lying on the floor among some debris, including what looks like a hammer-type object, which differs between shots.
- Lampshade position – When Dumbledore and Harry approach the Slughorn armchair, on the left there is a white lampshade lying on the shelf hanging over the edge. When Slughorn stands up and walks to the door to lock it, the lampshade is farther back on the shelf.
- Mark on the floor – Before the Quidditch match, when Ron walks into the Great Hall, Seamus runs up to him from the right side. As Ron and Seamus walk forward the camera moves backward, and the white mark is visible on the floor where Seamus was just standing.
- Ginny/Harry spacing – When Harry is kneeling beside Dumbledore’s body, at the foot of the Astronomy Tower, Ginny joins Harry, and holds him at his left side (viewer’s right). In the last close-up of Professor Dumbledore’s face, Harry is visible in the background with a space to his left, and Ginny is now gone. That same angle was shown before Ginny joined Harry.
- Train windows – On the train journey to Hogwarts, as the camera faces the large compartment window on the Hogwarts Express, we see the scenery out the window, but as the train speeds along, the scenic reflection of the windows opposite it, in the corridor, should be seen but aren’t. What is reflected is the light colored wall of the compartment beneath the blacked-out window. The camera filming the shots from this angle is positioned at that window, and to hide the camera/crews’ outline, the window was covered.
- Hermione’s hat – While this is probably looking too deeply at the meaning behind an innocent wardrobe decision, during the Quidditch game Hermione is wearing a green hat, which implies that she is supporting Slytherin.
- More tape – At the end of the movie, in the above shot of Harry and Hermione on the Astronomy Tower talking, we can see the white tape at their feet, right in front of their toes, to show them where to stand.
- Bad timing – When Harry speaks with the coffee shop waitress, she says “I get off at eleven,” and then we see her standing outside on the platform as the shop is being locked up. But when Dumbledore restores the Muggle house to it’s previously intact state in the next scene, the clock says 10:35.
- Back to front – When Harry first gets his Potions book, he opens up the front cover to find the inscription, “This book belongs to the Half-Blood Prince”. Later, when Ginny grabs it out of his hand, she flips open to the BACK of the book to find the inscription. Later on, when Katie returns to the Great Hall, the book is open, and the inscription is there in the front. (This could possibly be explained if there were two inscriptions in the book since we have received reports that the font differs too.)
- Wrong table – When Harry pretends to pour the Felix Felicis into Ron’s drink, Luna sits down at the Gryffindor table. However, Luna is in Ravenclaw, and she doesn’t have a reason for sitting there until she points out the Felis Felicis.
- Finger drawing – On the Hogwarts Express going back during Christmas, Lavender Brown wrote in a heart “R + L XX.” But when she does this the writing doesn’t appear where her finger is touching the glass.
- Inconsistent cloak – On the first train ride to Hogwarts, Harry picks up his cloak, which is visible because nobody is wearing it, and goes to spy on Malfoy. Later, when Luna finds Harry underneath the Invisibility Cloak she casts it off, but it does not appear even though nobody is wearing it.
- No Ginny, Ginny – In the Quidditch trials, shortly after a player flies in on a broom, the camera moves around behind Harry, and he is clearly standing alone. Moments later, however, the camera switches position, and we can see that Ginny is standing beside Harry.
- The length of the 35mm film is 13,759 feet.
- Director Guillermo del Toro turned down the chance to direct this film so that he could work on Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008).
- Helen McCrory had been cast to play Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) but had to back out because she was pregnant. She was later cast as Bellatrix’s sister, Narcissa Malfoy, in this film.
- Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, who plays eleven-year-old Tom Riddle, is the nephew of Ralph Fiennes, who plays Lord Voldemort (formerly Tom Riddle).
- Robert Knox, who plays Marcus Belby, was tragically stabbed to death on May 24, 2008, just days after filming wrapped. The film is dedicated to him.
- Christian Coulson, who played Tom Riddle in Chamber of Secrets, expressed an interest in returning as the teenage Riddle for this film, but David Yates felt that Coulson was too old for the role (he was close to 30).
- Thomas James Longley auditioned for the role of teenage Tom Riddle but lost out to Frank Dillane.
- Dame Maggie Smith completed filming this film while undergoing radio-therapy as treatment for breast cancer.
- Alan Horn, President and Chief Operating Officer of Warner Bros., stated that due to “repercussions of the writers’ strike” they were offered “new windows of opportunity that we [Warner Bros.] wanted to take advantage of.” The film’s release date was then moved from November 21, 2008, to July of 2009.
- The original script included all of Dumbledore’s memories about Voldemort as outlined in the source novel, but the director insisted on trimming them down as. According to Steve Kloves, “… he wanted to showcase Voldemort’s rise without getting overly involved with his past as Riddle.”
- This is the first Harry Potter film to be rated PG by the MPAA since Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004).
- There is a scene in this movie in which Death Eaters, led by Bellatrix Lestrange and Fenrir Greyback, attack the Burrow where Harry, the Weasleys, Lupin, and Tonks are staying. This particular scene was not in the book but was made just for the movie to serve as a representative of all the news reports, which are scattered around in the source novel, about various attacks by Death Eaters on the wizard community. It was considered to provide better pacing for a movie to have Harry actually experience one such attack firsthand, rather than hearing/reading about those that kept happening to some other students or their relatives.
- Shipped to some theaters under the moniker “Candlelit.”
- Bruno Delbonne’ was chosen to be the film’s cinematographer by David Yates: “The choice of angles, the extreme close-ups, the pacing of the scenes… it’s very layered, incredibly rich.”
- According to production designer Stuart Craig, Tom Riddle’s orphanage is based on buildings from the Liverpool Docklands, and it is influenced by Victorian-Georgian architecture. In fact, the orphanage’s exterior uses original Victorian glaze bricks to give the set a very hard structure.
- According to VFX supervisor Tim Alexander, completing the Inferi attack took several months: “It was much bolder and scarier than we imagined that they’d ever go in a Potter movie. David Yates was really cautious of not making this into a zombie movie, so we were constantly trying to figure out how not to make these dead people coming up look like zombies. A lot of it came down to their movement – they don’t move fast, but they don’t move really slow or groan and moan. We ended up going with a very realistic style.” He also noted that Inferi are skinnier than zombies, as well as being waterlogged and grey.
- Dumbledore’s ring of fire took computer graphic artist Christopher Horvarth eight months to complete.
- Over 7,000 girls auditioned for the role of Lavender Brown and read from a scene with Madam Pomfrey, Hermione, and Ron. Jessie Cave was eventually given the role. Ironically, Emma Watson recommended Jessie Cave for the role, although Cave hadn’t attended any auditions.
- Jamie Campbell Bower hoped to be cast as a young Riddle. He was instead cast as the teenage Gellert Grindelwald in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
- Terry Gilliam, who was J.K. Rowling’s personal choice to direct the first film, was approached to direct this film. However, Gilliam said, “Warner Bros. had their chance the first time around, and they blew it.”
- Bill Nighy was interested in playing Rufus Scrimgeour, but there was no place for the character in the film. He did play this role in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, though.
- The night scenes were filmed in the quaint village of Lacock and the cloisters at Lacock Abbey for three nights, October 25-28, 2007. Filming took place from 5 p.m.-5 a.m., and residents of the street were asked to black out their windows with dark blinds.
- When Draco Malfoy goes to the Room of Requirement for the final time, you can clearly see the harp that put Fluffy to sleep and the king from the game of chess that were in the first movie.
- This is the second film to not open with a Harry-centric event. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire opened with a scene from a chapter of Book 4, “The Riddle House.” Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince opens with an event that is mentioned in the first chapter of Book 6, “The Other Minister,” where the Death Eaters collapse a bridge in London. (Although the first images in this film are of Harry and Dumbledore at the Ministry of Magic after the battle with Voldemort in the fifth film, the first legitimate and complete scene is the Death Eater attack.)
- The tapestry seen near the Room of Requirement is the last of seven in “The Hunt of the Unicorn” (or the “Unicorn Tapestries”) series, called “The Unicorn in Captivity.” The real tapestry can be found at the Cloisters in New York City.
- Mr Weasley’s shed of Muggle artifacts contains, among other things, two Remington Noiseless Portable Typewriters and an HP Laserjet 4.
- Eleanor Columbus had originally reprised her character of Susan Bones, but her scene was cut.
- This is the first Harry Potter film that does not feature any aspect of Defense Against the Dark Arts classes on screen, either direct (Movies 2-5) or indirect (Movie 1). The only mention of the subject occurs when Dumbledore announces Snape’s appointment to the open teaching position.
- When Harry is in Dumbledore’s office at the end of the film, a bowl of lemon drops can be seen on his desk. This is a throwback to the first film, when Dumbledore announces they are his favorite Muggle candy.
- At the beginning of the film, the Death Eaters destroy the Millennium Bridge in London. The bridge is not specifically named in the book. The book is set in 1995-1996, according to the canon timeline. The Millennium Bridge was not constructed until 1998 and opened on June 10, 2000.
- The omission in this movie of the Battle of the Astronomy Tower between members of the Order of the Phoenix and Death Eaters was due to the fact that they writers did not want to seek repetition when they film the Battle of Hogwarts in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 (2011).
- This is the second time Tom Felton and Jim Broadbent have worked together on film, the first time being on the 1997 film The Borrowers (1997) as members of the four-inch tall family, son Peagreen Clock and his father Pod Clock, respectively.
- In the flashback scene in which Dumbledore visits the young Tom Riddle in the orphanage, a photograph on the wall of Tom’s room depicts the same place that Dumbledore and Harry travel to in search of the third Hocrux (the locket). There are also seven rocks on the windowsill, which is the same number of Hocruxes that Voldemort created.
- J.K. Rowling read through the script for this film and found a line where Dumbledore mentions a girl he had a crush on when he was younger. After reading it, she informed the filmmakers that Dumbledore is in fact gay and that his only romantic infatuation was with the wizard Grindelwald, whom he later had to defeat in a wizard duel. She later made this information public while promoting the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
- Originally, the shooting script was written so that Harry takes possession of Dumbledore’s wand after he is killed. Shortly before filming began, the final book in the series came out, in which Dumbledore’s wand, and who possesses it, turns out to be a major issue, so the script had to be changed.
- Dumbledore’s fall from the tower filled Alan Rickman with nostalgic glee since it harked back to his first hit Die Hard (1988), where his character fell from a tall building. Rickman felt that at least “he was on the other end in this film!”
- After Dumbledore’s death, Harry visits his office one last time. As the camera scans Dumbledore’s desk before stopping on the wand, there is a quick glimpse of a letter. It looks like it is addressed to Rufus Scrimgeour, the new Minister of Magic, and is possibly a copy of Dumbledore’s will, which comes into play in Book 7.
- This is the first film in which the US and UK age rating has differed. – Submitted by former MuggleNet staff member Nick

The Fall of Communism
Years of communism in East Germany left the region far behind its western counterpart. Many citizens left eastern Germany because the border with the west opened, causing the youngest and most skilled to move there to find work. The east lost over 800,000 of its 17 million people, leaving the most unskilled citizens to rebuild the region.
The eastern factories were unable to compete in the global capitalist market, therefore many of them closed, causing widespread unemployment. To help the unemployment problem, the government has invested the equivalent of about one trillion U.S. dollars. Also, the government has been promoting investment in the east and sponsors programs to retain workers. Their industry has begun expanding, driving towards closing the gap between east and west.

From The Lansing City Pulse (original site link)
Salsa cat strut: Los Gatos
You don’t expect Pete Siers, crack drummer and leader of the Latin jazz combo Los Gatos (The Cats), to get coy on you.
Yet when he describes the dance frenzies that rage in front of Los Gatos Thursday nights at Ann Arbor’s Firefly Club, he sounds like a coquette in a low-cut gown: Gosh, what’s all the fuss about?
“Last night I walked into the club, and before we started there were 70 people waiting for us to hit,” he said. “The energy coming off the dance floor was incredible.”
Los Gatos began as a hip, lounge-ish quintet in the mode of cool-jazz master Cal Tjader, not a dance machine.
“You listen to a lot of modern salsa — three percussionists and a drum set,” Siers said. “It’s too much for me.”
Not that Siers is immune to the dance itch. He was a journeyman drummer in his 20s when he heard bandleader Tito Puente’s landmark “Dancemania” records.
“I was smitten,” he said. “It took me years to figure out how to put something like that together.”
He moved from his native Saginaw to Ann Arbor and started to tap its deep pool of musical talent. The current Los Gatos lineup features Kurt Krahnke on bass and brothers Brian DiBlassio on piano and Al DiBlassio on congas. With Siers, they make up a strong rhythm section, but for many listeners, the distinctive feature of Los Gatos is Gary Kocher’s cool vibraphone sound. In contrast to the band’s superheated Latin rhythms, Kocher’s vibes send ice cubes down your back.
“I didn’t want to do the traditional salsa combination, with a front line of horns,” Siers said. “I was smitten by the old school, small group sound — a lot more jazz influence.”
He calls the approach “low volume, high intensity.”
“I love the openness, sparseness and simplicity,” he said.
Siers said the band covered “85 percent” of Tjader’s tunes in its early years; it still plays this ageless material regularly.
However, as the cats grew their claws, they dug in deeper, layering rhythm on rhythm, doubling instruments if necessary. They even started singing.
Now Siers sees the band as a “big machine with five drummers.”
“It’s really high-powered, and we’re all exposed, because we don’t have multiple guys,” he said
When Los Gatos started at Ann Arbor’s Firefly Club, the vibe was less than dance friendly. “The owner wasn’t sure she wanted to break the listening-room feel,” Siers said.
To build a temporary dance floor, Siers cut up furniture desk-chair pads and laid them in a grid over the carpet.
Recently, the club moved to a space with a large tile dance floor. The stage was fully set for dance mania.
“For us, it’s killer,” Siers said. “We can accommodate a lot of folks.”
Now people classify Los Gatos as salsa rather than Latin jazz. “What do those two terms mean?” Siers shrugged. “They’re synonymous to me, but dancers have their own terms.”
In 2006, Los Gatos played Lansing’s JazzFest, stirring the pot as usual. “We played the afterglow, after the last act,” Siers said. “They were just trying to sell some more beer, but it worked. It was a riot. We played until 1 o’clock and it was packed.”
The group is now deep in rehearsal on 15 complex new tunes.
“I love to explore what a quintet can do,” he said. “One of our influences right now is Joe Cuba (Jose Calderon) and that was a sextet, with bongo and cowbell.”
How many more layers can they pile on before the machine stops running so smoothly?
“That’s the challenge,” Siers said. The toughest part is singing while playing. “The coordination is pretty intense,” he allowed. “I consider the voice a fifth limb.”

Started in Year
Thinking deep into the reflective eye, bringing a universal state of mind. Lady Lash has life stories with introspective thoughts and cryptic rap riddles which are rarely all completely absorbed in the first listen. The soulful lyricist has grind ethics towards hip hop and has spent many years hustling her skilful flow for crowds. The spiritual insight Lash brings to her music is that of a strong Kokatha/Greek Woman from the West Coast of South Australia. Supporting amazing artist over years and receiving numerous music awards, her positive jazz melodies infused with sultry rhymes bring an essence of modern street poetry. Lady Lash has come into her own as a microphone fiend and loves to capture hearts with powerful visions and vocals that push boundaries in profound ways.
Lash is currently in Production for her fourth album titled
‘Therapy Tapes’ due to be released 2017.
an Indigenous artist of the Kokatha nation
“I chose to spit rhymes through hip hop because it allowed me to not only express myself over dope instrumentals, but also to fit a massive quantity of word play and story in a short amount of time.”
A Kokatha/Greek woman from far western South Australia, Lady Lash is a generic anomaly. Combing equal parts jazz, hip hop and soul interwoven with powerful storytelling, her music pushes sonic boundaries in profoundly beautiful ways. Having taken out the Victorian Indigenous Performing Arts Award for Most Promising Act and The Age Music Victoria Award for Best Indigenous Act with her debut album Crystal Mercy: The Fisherman’s Daughter, Lady Lash is set to release her third album Therapy Tapes later this year.

If you have ever read anything about mindfulness or had any interest in the subject, there’s a good chance you might have heard of the ‘body scan’ technique. For those who haven’t heard of this exercise, it’s a great introduction to mindfulness and also a great way to strengthen your mind/body connection.
This exercise is also a fantastic way to see just how much you miss by being too inside your own head and forgetting to be present. Read on to give it a try…
The Body Scan
The idea of the body scan is to help bring your attention to your own body, your surroundings and the simple experience of ‘being’. It will take you out of your own head and show you just how much sensory information is coming in at any time.
To begin then, bring your attention to your breath and focus on it with each breath inward and outward.
Continue this for a few minutes and as you do you might notice your mind starts to drift. Don’t punish yourself for this, simply make a note of how your mind is working and then bring it back to your experience.
Eventually, you should start to notice other sensations throughout your body. You may notice the feeling of your buttocks on the floor or chair for instance. Perhaps you can feel the light breeze on your skin. Maybe you can feel a slight tension in the muscles of your back.
Gradually expand your awareness to encompass your entire body and then further to encompass the environment around you. Try and listen for sounds in the distance and be aware of how many sounds you can pick up. Don’t engage with them, just be aware of them and be constantly aware of your breathing.
To extend this to true mindfulness, you’re next going to expand your mindfulness even further – this time to encompass your own thoughts so that you’re aware of them drifting through your mind like clouds. As with the external sounds earlier, the aim here is not to engage with those thoughts – simply to observe them in a passive manner without assessing or judging them.
If you’re interested in trying this exercise but not sure how to go about it yourself, you can find a number of body scan ‘scripts’ online that will talk you through the process.

text: Eep I can’t do long posts if the subjects don’t give me loads of inspiration! Not to say, of course, that I don’t like the prompts – in general they’re really good. But personally, I don’t really like sandwiches…I know, I’m weird. The only two three sandwiches I’ll really eat are meatball subs, grilled cheese sandwiches and French dip. So…yeah. I guess just a really good anyone of those, with wheat bread on all. If it’s meatball, then I want provolone cheese on top. If grilled cheese, then I want American cheese. If French dip, then I would like to have provolone I think. So uh, yeah. I dunno. I’m not a sandwich person, I’d rather have something else yummy.

Interstellar agents of sonic psychedelia were back. Earthless momentarily touched down at Montreal’s Fairmount Theatre alongside Sacri Monti and Maggot Heart. From the silky slide guitar smoothness of Sacri Monti, to the heavy disco-driven distortion of Maggot Heart, and of course the timeless and spaceless rock of Earthless, this show was a melting pot for all things groovy and destructive.
Sacri Monti pulled the curtains back to start the show. A duo of single-coiled guitars swept the sweet echoes of Pink Floyd and Allman Brothers across the room. The presence of some slide guitar added a lot to the atmosphere to the sound along with keys and bass that helped push the air right up to the top of your lungs. Their sound was massive and their style free wheelin’. “Fear and Fire” was a ridiculous track that showcased the different frequencies the band could roll at. The song is as soft as a surrealistic pillow and as blinding as looking at the sun with naked eyes. Somewhere in the world, someone made a stellar decision to have them on the same bill as Earthless. Dive into their latest LP Waiting for the Magic Hour and peel back some layers of time.
Time for a quick upshift and boom all of a sudden you’re neck-deep in the meanest disco-driven stoner grooves you never knew existed. Maggot Heart hail from Germany and brought that quintessential bold strut to their stuff. The energy for the vicious dance tunes emanated from a drummer who was head-down and hard at work the entire show. Faceless Uno Bruniusson was ripping into his kit and everyone in the room noticed it. Up front, former The Oath guitarist Linnéa Olsson led the charge. The band played loud and heavy through a simple set up that helped deliver the proper punch of a power trio. They played the entirety of their 2017 EP City Girls, as well as half of their latest LP Dusk to Dusk. For lovers of proto-punk rock, Maggot Heart is the tab for you.
Much like when the psychical dimensions of the tab have melted away, we were now in the twilight zone. There was a big bang and all of a sudden the entire universe had existed forever. To paraphrase Bill Burr’s comment on his Earthless experience; the band started their show with the kind of explosiveness that most bands end with. Mario Rubalcaba, Isaiah Mitchell, and Mike Eginton buckled down into a jam and took everyone for a wild ride. They must have gone a solid half an hour from their start without stopping. Mitchell’s treble powered tone was a disorienting beam of clean and mean voodoo magic. It was a full-blown sonic assault that was exhausting to even just watch. Rubalcaba’s kit was pushed front and center and watching him swing around that kit for so long was incredible. Eginton was locked into the deep pocket and was absolutely the reason why you’re head was grooving the entire time.
With their latest release Black Heaven, the band has incorporated vocals into their music for the first time. “Electric Flame,” and a cover of Groundhogs’ “Cherry Red,” showed off Mitchell’s twangy southern-sounding pipes, although they were buried beneath the musical load. It was great to see the different dimensions of the Earthless universe. They’ve escaped the pigeon-hole of instrumental psych music and flashed a lot of blues mojo while doing so. After being called back to the stage to deliver more galactic beats, they ripped into a cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Communication Breakdown” complete with a classic Earthless jam. They proceeded to collect their things and zap away into the space-time continuum, to be heard only at another time and place.

Sun-damaged Skin in Fairfax, VA
Most people enjoy spending time in the sun, but the sun’s rays are actually what cause most of the signs of aging in your skin. Ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun damages the protein elastin within your skin. Elastin gives skin its elastic quality, so when elastin is destroyed, your skin becomes looser, allowing wrinkles and sagging areas to develop over time.UV rays also stimulate the production of melanin, a pigment that helps protect the deeper layers of skin from sun damage. Melanin is responsible for the sunkissed look of a suntan, but long-term exposure to UV light can cause the overproduction of melanin, resulting in hyperpigmentation in some areas. And UV exposure is also a cause of melanoma and other skin cancers.
What are the different types of sun damage?
Long-lasting types of non-cancerous sun damage include:
- Uneven pigmentation
- Age spots
- Melasma (uneven patches of darker pigmentation)
- Fine lines
- Sagging skin
When exposure to the sun causes a change in your skin, it’s technically a form of sun damage. This includes suntans and sunburns. These conditions are temporary, but they require a healing response from your body to make them go away.
What treatments can help sun-damaged skin?
The highly trained professionals at Contours LaserSpa offer state-of-the-art treatments to reduce the appearance of sun damage. The team has an array of advanced laser tools available to address most non-cancerous signs of sun damage. The most common treatments recommended by the team include:
Intense pulsed light therapy
Intense pulsed light (IPL) uses short bursts of broad-spectrum light to target the deep layers of your skin and break up clusters of excess pigmentation. The light damages the cellular structure of the pigment, and your body’s natural immune process clears the destroyed cells away over time, leaving you with a more evenly toned complexion.
Laser skin rejuvenation
Laser sun spot removal uses a specific wavelength of light energy to break up the pigment. It also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin to reduce skin sag, and improve wrinkles and fine lines. Laser sun spot removal treatments also enhance your skin’s circulation, resulting in a healthier, radiant complexion.
How can I prevent further sun damage?
You can reduce your risk of sun damage and skin cancer through proper skin care—always wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen and limiting your sun exposure.
To learn more about sun spot treatment or for additional tips on skin care, call Contours LaserSpa or book online today.

Is the Compass really a Jeep, thing?
When Jeep introduced the Compass for the 2007 model year; I instantly thought (and still think) that it was one of the best names ever given to a vehicle with adventurous aspirations – something Jeep vehicles have always represented. However; the Compass didn’t quite live up to its Jeep heritage, or its own name for that matter. When Jeep announced that Compass would receive an update for 2011; I wasn’t expecting more than a minor appearance refresh. I simply didn’t think that Chrysler would invest a lot of money, time, and energy to significantly update a vehicle that they have already announced will be replaced in a few short years. I was wrong about that, and thankfully so.

Have you heard about the new Clubhouse Experience that’s opening downtown? If you’re a big kid, this place is like the mother ship calling you home. It’s true. The enterprise is putting the finishing touches on their impressive, new e-tainment venue—the first of its kind in the United States.
For gamers and golfers, it will be an oasis in the heart of the metro—one that features six Topgolf Swing Suite bays and two official-length indoor shuffleboard courts. Add a wide variety of simulated games—ranging from hyper-realistic hockey, baseball, and football challenges to a fun dodgeball match with virtual zombies—and it’s destined to be the perfect afterwork (or perhaps during work) getaway. “The whole place is built around having fun,” says CMO Dan Gedman. “It’s where big kids play during the week and the suburbs will play on the weekend.”
For foodies, however, it’s destined to be a mecca for some phenomenal farm-to-table fare. Gedman should know—he’s a self-proclaimed “food dork.” He promises people will come for the cuisine and keep coming back for the chance to get your game on. With a killer lunch and dinner menu that includes seafood, pork, lamb, beef, as well as regional produce, the place is a carnivore’s paradise. When we checked out the menu, we discovered contemporary dishes such as Korean Fried Chicken, Charred Broccolini & Prosciutto Flatbread, and Spice Rubbed Pork Tenderloin.
Gedman says he could literally eat TCE’s Kansas City Reuben every single day. “It’s our take on a traditional Reuben but with burnt ends. It’s absurdly good,” he says. “Not to be outdone though, we offer several unbelievably tasty salads, too. I might need to eat a few after eating our Reubens for the past few weeks,” he says, laughing.
Designed from the ground up here in the metro, The Clubhouse Experience already has its sights set on venues in Denver and Philadelphia. “Ours is the first of its kind, but our plan is to have five of them open by the end of 2020,” says Gedman. Ex-Applebee’s CEO and current TCE CEO/President Dave Goebel was instrumental in getting the (golf) ball rolling. “Without him, this whole endeavor would not be going as well as it is,” Gedman says.
Now the race is on to get everything squared away before the Clubhouse opens its doors to a very eager public on September 27th. “There’s tons of buzz,” says Gedman. “We’re getting a ridiculous amount of interest in hosting upcoming corporate events. People want to know when they can schedule their holiday parties.”
A spacious covered courtyard greets guests before they even enter. “It’s the perfect hangout area,” says Gedman. Once inside, the interior will have an aquarium-esque quality to it. “You can see the activity and excitement of folks playing games on our giant interactive screens,” he says. “Personally, I’m excited to play golf 12 months out of the year. And there are 81 different courses to choose from, too.”
TCE is the perfect place for corporate parties and team-building events, as well as other customizable gatherings—from two to 250 people. “Ultimately, we’ll be a high-end dining experience—perfect for wooing clients,” says Gedman. “The games are a bonus. I mean, if you have to go to a meeting, you might as well have fun, right?”
Right now, Gedman is just excited to get the doors open and to dazzle the city with everything TCE brings to the table. “Foodies will love it. Golfers will love it. Anyone who lives or works downtown will love it,” he says. “Everybody is excited.”

I've already photographed a few of my Mummy action figures on this playset, now I'll be taking a look at the playset itself, as well as all of the accessories and figures that come with it. Let's take a trip back in time after the break!
|The Mummy Playset Package|
This toy was released by McFarlane Toys in 1998, as part of their Todd McFarlane's Monsters series. It came with two action figures, several accesories, and a playset in several pieces that need to be assembled by snapping them together. I had one problem with mine: the hinges on the sarcophagus came off. They weren't broken, but I'm going to need to use some super glue on them to keep them in place. I'm not sure if they were always loose, or if the glue just weakened after sitting in the package for 16 years. But it's an easy fix, so I'm not too concerned about it.
|The Playset Assembled|
The playset was very easy to assemble. It's scaled for four inch figures, but works great with 3 and 3/4 inch figures as well. I've highly recommend it if you collect horror figures in this scale, like Remco Mini Monsters or Funko ReAction Universal Monsters. It would also be great for any other action figures in this size range, like Adventure People, Micronauts, Battlestar Galactica, Indiana Jones figures, or even G.I. Joes. It looks great on it's own, or it could be something you could build a whole diorama around. It has several fun features, including:
|The Golden Sarcophagus|
|The Mummy Emerges From His Tomb|
The sarcophagus is hinged and opens up, and can hold a mummy or other action figure. It has a spot on the playset base where it stands firmly in place, but it can also be removed to place it separately.
THE SNAKE PIT
|The Snakes and the Remains of Their Victims|
Underneath the sarcophagus is a wood floor that can be slid back to reveal a snake pit. There are "two" snakes, which are actually two snakes sculpted onto one solid piece of plastic. You can grip the snakes from a slot behind the playset to move them around.
The canopic jars are loose and can be placed wherever you like.
The Anubis statue snaps into place on the wall of the playset, and hold a removable staff in his hands. The figure twists at the waist, so you can make it swing the staff, like it was a built in security feature in the tomb. The figure can also be popped off the wall and used as an action figure, as if the statue has come to life.
The Mummy figure is sculpted and painted with lots of detail and looks pretty gruesome. He reminds me quite a bit of "Eddie," the mascot of heavy metal band Iron Maiden. He comes with a staff he can carry. The figure has limited articualtion and isn't balanced very well. In order to get him to stand while holding his staff out in the photo above, I had to point his other arm backwards to keep him from being to heavy in the front and toppling over.
If only McFarlane would return to this series someday. I would be a happy, happy man.ReplyDelete
Great coverage of this set! I reviewed a few of these last year and plan to hit a few more this year as we move closer to Halloween.

Nearly one health care company board member in every 10 also serves as a top academic from a renowned medical and research institution in the United States, a new study finds. This adds up to a total of 279 health care company board members affiliated with 85 non-profit academic institutions.
While the Sunshine Act reveals the fees and gifts doctors receive from pharmaceutical companies, Obamacare’s transparency clause does not expose a professor moonlighting as a board member, say the researchers. Yet, such dual obligations pose a major conflict of interest.
Follow the Money
Beginning Wednesday, Jane and Joe Citizen will be able to search a government-run website and see all the consulting fees, stock options, and trips to Key West that pharmaceutical companies give to primary care physicians, ob/gyns, dermatologists, and other doctors. Known as the “Sunshine Act,” this transparency clause in the Affordable Care Act allows the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to publicly post the many payments and valuables given to physicians and teaching hospitals. Yet, the new act does not explicitly require a professor to report payments earned as a company director. And “conflicts of interest are not specific to pharmaceutical companies, as competing interests may impact health care service and medical equipment industries as well,” wrote the authors.
So, what is the true extent of academia-industry conflicts?
For the study, Dr. Walid F. Gellad, associate professor, and his colleagues at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, analyzed the prevalence and compensation of company directors who also held academic positions. The team focused on publicly-traded health care companies specializing in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical equipment, or health care services. Searching company statements, the team found 442 companies disclosing information about their board of directors. Of these companies, 41 percent included at least one director with an academic affiliation, specifically 85 non-profit academic institutions, including 19 of the top 20 National Institutes of Health-funded medical schools.
Overall, 121 directors were professors and 85 were trustees, while 73 were chief executive officers, presidents, trustees, provosts, deans, and department chairs.
The directors received, on average, annual payments of $193,000 in addition to significant stock options.
“How do we safeguard scientific and clinical integrity, ensuring that it is knowledge and not market share that shapes research and clinical practice? How do we keep the playing field level when industry dispenses hundreds of thousands of dollars to academic leaders?” Dr. David Rothman, a professor at Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons, wrote in a linked editorial.
If anything, the study — which did not include large private companies, foreign companies, or start-ups — may have under-reported the full scope of ties between industry directors and academia. The authors concluded these conflicts "deserve additional review, regulation, and, in some cases, prohibition when [they] cannot be reconciled."

An artist's impression of the elevated Bus Rapid Transit system. Photo: RapidKL
It’s like the LRT, only it’s an eco-friendly bus with its own dedicated lanes and ‘customer-friendly’ stations. That pretty much sums up the BRT, which is part of RapidKL’s plans for an integrated public transportation system to address our ever-growing concern about traffic congestion in the city (they predict that we’ll all be stuck in a massive gridlock by 2020, what with the Klang Valley population growing exponentially and everyone preferring to drive than take the bus or LRT). Here’s what we know about the BRT:1. The BRT is an elevated Bus Rapid Transit system, meaning buses will have their own (elevated, according to the artist’s impression) lanes.2. The first BRT line will be the Sunway Line, linking up key areas in Sunway, USJ and Subang. 3. The Sunway Line will have seven stations, including ones near KTMB Setia Jaya, Sunway Mentari Business Park, The Pinnacle, Sunway Medical Centre and Monash University, among others.

'Ooo' by Karen O Track from her Cult Records debut album ‘Crush Songs’ At 25 minutes, ‘Crush Songs’ feels like a collection of demos, peppered with fade-outs and off-tune strumming – but therein lies the appeal, in its lo-fi, raw quality. That each song lasts barely over two minutes is the thematically apt point; a crush is fleeting, and here, Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Karen O is forlorn. As an opener, ‘Ooo’ sets the tone – plaintive and unplugged, she pines over an almost-lover and it’s instantly relatable. ‘Don’t tell me that they’re all the same,’ she begins, her hushed vocals defiant and yearning over simple chords, and despite – or maybe because of – the abrupt end, it’s a number that demands replays.

As Malaysians, we can agree on a few things: nasi lemak, rush hour traffic, and Yuna. The singer-songwriter-slash-style icon has just announced a secret show this December 7 on her Instagram. With tickets limited to 200 pax, it’s going to be an acoustic, up close and personal night with the star. Where, you ask? It’s a secret – of course – but watch this space for more information, coming soon. The Alor Setar-born, LA-based lass was lifted from her local, MySpace-driven fame to international critical acclaim in 2012 with ‘Yuna’, her self-titled debut, which was produced by Pharrell.

The rich filling of mushroom, parmesan cheese and truffle will remind you of creamy spaghetti sauce, or a chicken pot pie with popiah skin instead of pastry.

Top 5 films to watch at the 15th European Union Film Festival
Fri Oct 31
Now in its 15th year, the European Union Film Festival (EUFF) returns to selected GSC outlets with a line-up that showcases the diversity of European cinema.

Download Liyana Fizi’s new single ‘You Know’ for free
Thu Oct 30
The definition of Malaysian indie darling is Liyana Fizi (no, seriously, Google up 'Malaysian indie darling' – she's there). Her latest release, 'You Know', is a collaboration with Melina William, bassist and vocalist for three-piece rock band Tempered Mental. Melina, who is also a composer and producer, approached Liyana to lend her voice to the track - and the result is 2.48 minutes of a muted, languid affair, charmingly delightful with each guitar strum and hushed lyrics. The composition of 'You Know' is classic Liyana Fizi - acoustic, stripped tunes funneled with folk, a sound she describes as 'honest, hypnotic and heart-wrenching'. It's deceiving in its simplicity, but with this song, what we get is a peek at how far she's grown as a solo artist since her early Estrella days. Our verdict: She doesn't even need to try; she's got us for life. Download the full track here for free (expires November 1). Latest blog posts
People say the darndest things: The 'I want to touch a dog' edition
Fri Oct 24
The recent 'I want to touch a dog' event, which was held at Bandar Utama, was a success with the public. But it is drawing flak from several conservative segments of the society. Here are a few of the statements we've picked up, as reported in the local dailies. ‘What is making these tornadoes so interested in dropping in on our country when it has stayed away and not shown any interest all this while. Is it because widespread vices like gambling centres, prostitution, alcohol fest and festival to touch dogs have become an attraction.’ A Facebook post by Perkasa, as reported in The Malay Mail. *** ‘We are worried that one day, someone will organise a “sex and condom” campaign to promote “safe sex”, supposedly to avoid HIV or AIDS from spreading.’ A statement by a PAS representative, as reported in Malaysiakini. *** ‘The Persatuan Jemaah Pondok-pondok Kedah suggested that a "Do not go near dogs" programme be held to counter the recent dog-touching event participated...

Brickfields' iconic Vivekananda Ashram to be redeveloped
Thu Oct 16
The Star reported today that the 110-year-old Vivekananda Ashram along Brickfields' Jalan Tun Sambanthan will be redeveloped to include a 23-storey residential tower and an eight-storey carpark on the site. However, the historical structure and the bronze statue of Swami Vivekananda will be retained to 'preserve its symbolic value'. Read the full story here.While we can take some comfort in the fact that the century-old landmark won't be demolished (just given some shiny, tall friends), news of its redevelopment has got us reminiscing about that time we dedicated a whole issue to Brickfields back in March 2011. And what we featured as the cover.

text: Dr. Vadivelan shared her study on pituitary and pancreatic iron deposition in patients with SCD at the 2024 ASPHO Conference. Stuart Orkin, MD, has been named as one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People of 2024 for his work in hemoglobin research. The study compared health care resource use and costs of pediatric patients with SCD compared with matched controls. Dr. Ansong-Ansongton shared what National Minority Health Month and Celebrate Diversity Month mean to him at ASPHO 2024. Dr. Ansong-Ansongton described data on the impact of abnormal mitochondrial retention and cold in red blood cells in SCD. The study evaluated transplant outcomes in pediatric patients with SCD who had a history of red blood cell alloimmunization. A standardized, local TCD supported by central quality review was implemented effectively in resource-constrained settings. The two-year event-free survival was estimated to be 82.6%, and the two-year overall survival was 94.1%. A new bill seeks to add a SCD health home model to state Medicaid programs to improve access and quality of treatment. A myeloablative conditioning regimen containing thiotepa had promising efficacy and safety in patients with severe SCD. Dr. Pakbaz describes some of the difficulties faced by patients with SCD as they switch from pediatric to adult programs. Reduction of hemolysis significantly predicted postinfusion transduction efficacy in patients with SCD treated with lovo-cel. Exa-cel eliminated RBC transfusions in patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia. Hydroxyurea therapy reduced blood transfusion by 75% among pediatric patients in sub-Saharan Africa with sickle cell anemia. The European Commission has approved the Conditional Marketing Authorization for exagamglogene autotemcel. Drs. Grant, Sutin, and Lin discuss their pilot study investigating cerebral hemodynamics in infants with sickle cell disease. Dr. Pakbaz and Dr. Strouse discuss their experiences practicing classical hematology and where the speciality is heading. Dr. Pakbaz, from the University of California Irvine, shared data on the value of a dedicated classical hematology clinic. Most patients with SCD with gallstones reached an advanced stage of gallstones by the time they underwent a cholecystectomy. Therapy with isoquercetin induced positive reductions in several biomarkers for thromboinflammation in sickle cell disease.


text: Phosphate is a common ingredient in many healthy foods but, it is also present in foods containing additives and preservatives. When found in foods, phosphate is absorbed in the intestines and filtered from the blood by the kidneys. Generally, any excess is excreted in the urine. In renal pathologies, however, such as chronic kidney disease, a reduced renal ability to excrete phosphate can result in excess accumulation in the body. This accumulation can be a catalyst for widespread damage to the cellular components, bones, and cardiovascular structures. This in turn can reduce mortality. Because of an incomplete understanding of the mechanism for phosphate homeostasis, and the multiple organ systems that can modulate it, treatment strategies designed to minimize phosphate burden are limited. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for phosphorous is around 700 mg/day for adults, but the majority of healthy adult individuals consume far more phosphate (almost double) than the RDA. Studies suggest that low-income populations are particularly at risk for dietary phosphate overload because of the higher amounts of phosphate found in inexpensive, processed foods. Education in nutrition, as well as access to inexpensive healthy food options may reduce risks for excess consumption as well as a wide-range of disorders, ranging from cardiovascular diseases to kidney diseases to tumor formation. Pre-clinical and clinical studies suggest that dietary phosphate overload has toxic and prolonged adverse health effects. Improved regulations for reporting of phosphate concentrations on food labels are necessary so that people can make more informed choices about their diets and phosphate consumption. This is especially the case given the lack of treatments available to mitigate the short and long-term effects of dietary phosphate overload-related toxicity. Phosphate toxicity is quickly becoming a global health concern. Without measures in place to reduce dietary phosphate intake, the conditions associated with phosphate toxicity will likely to cause untold damage to the wellbeing of individuals around the world.
