Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Watson stars as Hermione Granger in the film Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the second installment of the Harry Potter series. In the movie Harry, along with Hermione and Ron, must figure out what is causing the mysterious attacks at Hogwarts.
I think in the second book Hermione kind of develops. She becomes more friendly with Harry and Ron and she definitely becomes more easy going.

O Magazine interview
Lauren discusses creating the Nina Hyde Center for cancer research in an interview with O Magazine.
When I came out of the hospital, I met a wonderful woman, Nina Hyde, an editor in Washington, D.C., who had breast cancer. She said, You know, Ralph, you make these wonderful things for the outside—why aren’t you taking care of the inside? So I went to all the fashion designers and said, “Let’s do breast cancer,” and we raised money to start the Nina Hyde Center in Washington.
Today show interview

Once the match is over we are family and friends again but during the match we are competitors.
O Magazine interview
Donahue gives his thoughts on his talk show Donahue coming to an end in an interview with O Magazine.
I was anxious to walk. We’d lost our venue at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York (where the show had moved in 1985). I would tell anyone doing a show today to get 30 Rock. People from all over the world get off the plane and go there. We had smart, multiracial, international studio audiences—young people, daughters, mothers. We didn’t have to pull teeth to get their participation. It was the biggest natural high I could have. But then we moved to the New Yorker Hotel, across from Madison Square Garden, which was the opposite.

Defends increased BBC web spending
Highfield defends the previous year’s decision by the BBC to almost double the amount invested in the corporation’s websites. The corporation spent £100.4m on the internet last year, compared with £54.2m the year before. Including interactive television, the total expenditure rises to £111.6m. Highfield says future spending will be capped at 3%. Commercial rivals and some MPs have criticised the BBC’s spending, arguing it is using licence fee-payers’ money to provide online services already offered by the commercial sector.
Having arrived from the commercial sector, I’m always acutely aware of this. Whenever I think about where we’re going to put our money, I always carefully consider the consequences for the private sector. I trebled the amount we spend on nations and regions, increasing the number of Where I Live regional sites from 13 to 37. It doesn’t block out any commercial interest because most existing regional sites are heavily based on classified advertising.
A large proportion of the extra money was spent on upgrading the BBC’s server technology to cope with the increase in users following September 11.
Part of our original commitment was to encourage people to come on to the web and I think we’re doing that. Of the 500,000 visitors who used the Test the Nation site on the day of the broadcast, 300,000 had never visited the BBC site before.
Rita Cosby interview
Jackson is interviewed by Rita Cosby in New York. They talk about the exploitation of artists who face racism with Sony president, Tommy Mattola, Jackson’s financial situation, his anger over how the media is sold over bad news rather than positive stories. Jackson also highlights how Reverend Al Sharpton’s impact on representing African Americans artists in the music industry.
I think it’s important to be here. I’m not just fighting for myself I’m fighting for all artists. Some great artists who’ve pioneered the entertainment business as well as songwriting as well as incredible staging. But the fact that they have been taken by the system. Totally broken financially and this has to stop it’s a conspiracy.

O Magazine interview
Brandy talks about why she left the television show Moesha in an interview with O Magazine.
I had no decision-making power on that show, yet I was blamed for so much. The same people who were smiling in my face were talking about me behind my back. Then I’d go home, and there was Satan, tearing me down. On top of that, I was trying to be thin because the camera adds ten pounds. I was abusing my body.
O Magazine interview
Rock gives his thoughts about why he walked away from The Chris Rock Show in an interview with O Magazine.
I really wanted to do movies, and it’s difficult to do movies on the side. Only if you’re Oprah can you say, I will shoot between July and September. And let me tell you—if I’m ever Oprah, I’m going to say, Can we shoot for one hour a day? It probably sounds crazy, but I may eventually go back to my show. I miss informing people and being an immediate part of the culture. I miss being able to do a whole piece on reparations. I miss the mix of having Adam Sandler on to sing some nasty song and then talking with Cornel West.
Passes first review

The Systems Requirements Review confirmed that New Horizons is making progress on spacecraft and scientific instrument design, and that we are ready to proceed toward the mission confirmation reviews that NASA is requesting.
Imsomnia interview
Pacino is interviewed by Christopher Nolan. They talk about the film Insomnia, the challenge of being on set and rehearsing a scene setup before storyboarding.
I saw Francis sitting there…he was crying, literally sobbing. I went over and I said ‘What’s the matter?’ and he looked at me and said, ‘They won’t give me another setup.’
