on the killing floor

This is a job where you supervise killing.

miscarriage of justice

While the woman who miscarried her child is suing the officers and that is a tragedy, I would follow up with Liar, Liar's quote of, "Quit breaking the law, ***hole!" It is a shame she miscarried. That is a sadness and worthy of grief. What I think the media missed on this one was she was arrested. Now, the infractions were minor, but they didn't arrest her for being pregnant nor for being Black. She had a few items noteworthy for arrest.

Let us hope the jury sees it this way too.

Harry Potter 7

Deathly Hallows. Hmmmmm
I'll buy it, then regret it in the morning.

Coming to a bookstored married to Starbucks near you.

Let me read through the books, with the knowledge that they are children's books.
Philospher's/Sorcorer's Stone: neat intro, humor, saving poor Harry and he find's he is someone in the Wizardry world. It is an okay book, bordering on very good. It was a start and finish that could either lead to other books as it did or end.
Chamber of Secrets: introduces deception and disguises, characters develop and grow, but not as well written as book 1
Prisoner of Azkaban: more fearsome creatures, new threats, new friends
Goblet of Fire: longer than other others, intriguing, two murders, more talk about wizardry, you know ... the backdrop to the book. By far, my favorite in the series.
Order of the Pheonix: 600 pages too long, angry was Harry and the reader as they sifted through the chapters of false starts. Nose goblins and the Weasley brothers were the only two highlights
Half-Blood Prince: better than OoP, but weak in so many ways and for so many reasons. Rowling has still kept Snape elusive in this book ... on which side is he. She has never revealed his true nature, unless "A muse has no place in battle. I was an artist!"+

If it was done like book 5 -- it'll blow nose goblins, if done like the highlights of the other books, it'll be grand.
