How to ‘bookmark’ audiobooks

New Mexico employing wizards?
Well, almost so. In 1995 Duncan Scott, New Mexico senator, was sick of psychologists and psychiatrists being used as witnesses in court.

The merits of cheesy teenage romance novels

For girls with no taste for feminity or “girliness,” like yours truly, such a genre should not be allowed to exist. This is immature, but all I…

Video of the Day: Stars of Harry Potter tested on their American accents
I’m sure we’ve all done a terrible British accent at one time or another. It’s interesting to see things the other way around. I think Draco took the cake on this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moPRTR5ABE0&feature=player_detailpage
