Jul 16 2009, 1:04 PM
Author Jane Porter has always believed in happily ever after. Ever since the Bellevue-based book author was a little girl, she has felt a special connection with the world of story telling."I remember reading in my bedroom as a child and I knew even then that I wanted to be a writer," Porter said. "I wrote for 15 years before my first book was published, but I never gave up. I was stubborn. I just couldn't accept that this wasn't what I was destined to do."
Luckily for her fans, Porter stuck with it and is set to release her latest novel, Easy on the Eyes , on July 22. Her newest novel to hit bookshelves is a follow-up to her past titles, Odd Mom Out and Mrs. Perfect , a collection of modern-lit books that touch on the topics of marriage, relationships, divorce, motherhood, fame, and aging gracefully.

Jul 17 2009, 11:51 AM Finally! The sixth movie installment in the Harry Potter series has arrived.
“Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” has all the action and struggles we’ve missed throughout the year and more. The “Harry Potter” series, as most of you know, is about a boy wizard named Harry Potter, played by Daniel Radcliffe, who escaped death from Voldemort, an evil wizard, because of his mother’s love and his two best friends, Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (Emma Waston). Now he learns he is the Chosen One, and must defeat the menace Voldemort once and for all, or be defeated himself.
The sixth film starts right where the fifth ended, with his Headmaster Dumbledor (Michael Gambon) of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, after a duel with “The Dark Lord,” and sadly the opening was a grim scene much like the rest of the film, but it was astounding.
