Harry Potter and the lost desert grave of a teenage British hero
For 65 years the fam ily o f heroic boy soldier Private* Harry Potter had tried des
OLVASSKSZSG
perately to find his final resting place. All they knew about the 16-year-old w ho
had lied about his age and marched o ff ready to fig h t fo r his country in 1937 was
th a t he had been killed and buried som ewhere in Palestine.
But now his grave has been rediscovered by devotees o f an entirely different
Harry Potter - the boy wizard fro m J. K. R owlings w orld-fam ous books. And Pte
P otters grave has been transform ed into a shrine fo r J.K. Rowling enthusiasts
fro m all over the w orld. So many flow ers and messages have been le ft there
th a t the inscription detailing the fate o f the real Harry Potter - killed in action at
Hebron, Israel on July 22,1939, aged 19 - has alm ost become obscured.
The headstone was firs t noticed by local admirers o f J. K. Rowlings creation
and w ord quickly spread in Israel, w here the books and film s have become im
mensely popular.
The news about P otters grave was soon picked up by the local paper and,
back in England, attracted the a tte n tio n o f the soldiers nephew, Alan Hinton,
54, w ho had been carrying o u t Internet searches fo r inform ation about his uncle.
Now the local m ayor has invited Pte P otters fam ily to visit so they can finally
pay th e ir last respects. The fam ily is pleased the story o f Pte P otters life is at
tra cting so much atten tion , even if the interest was sparked by a simple coinci
dence o f names.
Pte P otter was actually just 18 w hen he died, having lied about his birthday
to join the Arm y at the age o f 16 in January 1937. A fte r a fe w weeks training
w ith the 1st Battalion, the W orcestershire Regiment, he was assigned to its M o
to r Transport division and sent to Palestine, w here a rebellion had broken out
against the British mandate. Ten m onths later he is believed to have been shot
by a sniper, although his parents w ere never to ld the exact circumstances o f
his death. A tte m p ts w ere made to dissuade Harry fro m joining up, but the high-
spirited teenager had a good practical reason fo r w anting to leave home: w ith
three sisters and fo u r younger brothers, the fa m ilys three-bedroom house was
uncom fortably overcrow ded. His sister, now 82, said: Harry w anted to see a bit
more o f the w orld. Hed le ft school at 14 and w orked fo r six m onths fixing roller
skates, but then joined the carpet fa cto ry to bring in a bit more m oney.

nasium at the Third Space health club near Piccadilly Circus in London. Now
you m ention it, yes. Very nice. Thats the kind o f th in g people pay to come
here fo r. Its the little touches th a t make it special. Everywhere you go in the
Third Space, it smells go od , says Brocas, the clubs duty manager. Im scenting
gardenias, lilacs and, unless Im mistaken, a hint o f the palm-fringed island in the
Indian Ocean on a sum m ers m orning. Which is much b e tte r than the smell o f
arm pit, stale lager and concentrate o f uncleaned to ile t th a t my council-run gym
offers.
Its the little things th a t make people choose the Third Space, one o f Lon
d ons posh health clubs. Everything has to be pristine, says Brocas. Thats
w hy there are w arm , clean tow els everywhere, the changing rooms are spotless
and the w hole vibe is w a rm .
The philosophy is th a t you have three spaces in your life - home, w o rk and
here, says Brocas. Its the th ird m ost im p o rta n t space in our m em bers lives -
and fo r some o f them it s even higher. Its a spiritual centre in a w ay. The third
space in peoples lives used to be the church, or the pub. Now, at least fo r a
g row ing m inority o f Britons, it is the health club. Some just come fo r a steam
and a show er before they go o ut fo r the night. Some seem never to be any
w here but here. They w o rk out, send some emails, have som ething to eat, read
the papers, just hang. Its a great place to be.
Third Space members can use three floors o f gym equipm ent (the running
machines have individual TV screens), a 20m ozone-treated pool (the ozone
prevents the chlorine fro m making your eyes sting) com plete w ith chill-out mu
sic and soothing w ood panelling. They have a boxing ring, a clim bing wall and
th e re s som ething called hypoxic training cham ber which, by reducing oxygen
in its atm osphere, simulates w h a t it s like to w o rk o ut at 8,500ft. As fo r personal
training (w hich costs 40 an hour), the Third Space lists 29 trainers on its w eb
site.
M ost o f our members are very tim e-poor, says Brocas as we visit Fresh
and Wild, the clubs tw o-storey organic foods superm arket. The lack o f tim e
means th a t we ta ilo r our services so people can get the m ost o ut o f the experi
ence. Thats w hy in our medical centre you can see a GP at lunchtim e w ith o u t
having to take the m orning o ff o r having to go back to w here you live. Youll find

They dont have to go anywhere else during th e ir day. Its all about convenience

One facility th a t the Third Space is particularly keen on prom oting is the Wash,

For the guards at W h itw o rth A rt Gallery in M anchester it was just another quiet
Sunday m orning. But as they prepared to unlock the doors and let in the visitors,
staff realised w ith horro r th a t three o f th e ir m ost prized pictures had vanished
from the collection.
The W h itw o rth , founded in 1889 w ith a bequest le ft by the Stockport-born
engineer Sir Joseph W h itw o rth , is internationally renowned fo r its collection.
The tim in g o f the raid, and the care w ith which it appears to have been carried
out, indicates the foresight and organisation o f the thieves w ho snatched the
pictures. By the tim e the th e ft was discovered, the pictures were probably miles
away; possibly even o u t o f the country. It isnt usually an inside job in these
cases, said Alexandra Smith, operations manager at the A rt Loss Register,
which m onitors stolen works. It is o ften done by outsiders w ho have w orked
o u t the security system, identified the m ost valuable paintings and planned
an entry and escape route m eticulously.
Their m ethods may be as simple as hiding inside at closing tim e, when other
people are leaving, said Dick Ellis, an art risk consultant. The W h itw o rth has
been particularly busy recently thanks to the success o f its exhibition o f pho
tographs, and the hordes o f visitors w ould have provided plenty o f cover fo r
thieves w ho w anted to get inform ation before the raid.
W hile art lovers often imagine th a t paintings are stolen to order fo r unscrupu
lous collectors, experts say m ost art th e fts are carried o ut fo r ransoms or so th a t
the w orks can be used as collateral fo r criminal deals.
If people have stolen them fo r ransom it is very likely th a t in a fe w m onths
tim e the people w ho have the pictures w ill contact the police, insurance compa
ny or the gallery itself and say they can get access to the painting and get it back
if someone is w illin g to pay m oney, Ms Smith said. Or they are m ore likely to
trade on the black m arket w here the paintings can be used instead o f money
in drug deals and fo r gun running. Money is traceable, but pictures can change
hands much m ore easily and can cross over borders w ith o u t being detected.
But even if the W h itw o rth manages to recover the pieces, the sad tru th
is th a t the w orks returned to it may bear little resemblance to the works
it lost.
One o f the big concerns in this case m ust be th a t because these are w ater
colours they need to be looked a fte r rather m ore than oils, M r Ellis said. If the
recovery takes some tim e - which is quite likely, because the statistics show th a t

the peak period of recovery is seven years after the time of theft - and you have

and conserve rivers, according to the governm ents ecological advisers. But
convincing landowners and o th e r rural groups o f th e ir benefits could mean it is
many years before the fu rry mammals and th e ir distinctive dams are seen again
in the wild.
A m ajor scientific study o f all English rivers has identified six areas w ith the
m ost suitable habitats. Beavers need 2km lengths o f river away fro m human
populations, w a te r at least 6ocm deep and ideally w illo w and poplar trees on
the river bank.
Despite th e ir n o to rie ty fo r nibbling th e ir way through trees to create th e ir
immense dams, according to the rep ort by Natural England, they could have
a significant, but largely positive effect on English rivers and w ildlife. Studies
fro m all over the w orld have shown th a t they can increase the variety o f plants,
birds, fish and mammals. A t the same tim e th e ir dam-building habit can also in
crease flooding, damage crops and may affect some fish populations.
Beavers w ere a natural part o f the British countryside until they were hunted
to extinction fo r th e ir fu r and the secretion fro m th e ir scent glands, which was
believed to have medicinal properties. They m ostly died o ut in the 16th century,
although there is evidence some hung on until the 18th century in some northern
rivers. Several beavers are to be introduced to a rem ote part o f Scotland in May
fo llo w in g a 10-year long battle betw een conservationists and landowners, and
there are plans to reintroduce them in Wales.
R introductions have been successfully made in m ost mainland European
countries but the re port says there needs to be wide public consultation before
going ahead in England. There is a strong possibility th a t beavers could do well
in England. But they are n o t going to come fo r some tim e. Reintroducing them is
tim e consum ing and expensive. They could have a range o f environm ental ben
efits but could only be reintroduced under the right conditions, said Natural
Englands chief scientist.
Polls suggest th a t the public w ould be in favour, but many landowners and
farm ers are dubious. The English countryside has changed enorm ously since
beavers w ere last seen here in large num bers, said the Country Landowners
Associations president. We have a landscape unlike th a t o f much o f the rest o f
the w orld - one th a t has been actively farm ed fo r hundreds o f years.

A feast of Scotland
ered fro m the land and its surrounding waters, despite the fa ct th a t barely
a quarter o f Scottish soil is under cultivation.
W ith such native riches, no elaborate tre a tm e n t is required to make the m ost
m outh-w atering o f meals. From hum ble origins, the art o f Scottish cookery has
developed over the centuries to achieve international renown.
In Celtic tim es the sea was held in religious awe. The eating o f fish was fo rb id
den, as they w ere held to be sacred to the pagan goddess Venus, and this must
have made the diet fa r more frugal than necessary. But by the eleventh cen
tu ry Catholicism had spread in Scotland, and the vast fishing grounds o f coasts,
rivers and lakes began to be exploited. So plentiful w ere freshw ater fish th a t
as early as the th irte e n th century Scottish salmon was pickled and exported to
London, w here it was considered to be a food fo r the poor! So im p o rta n t did the
harvesting o f the sea become th a t coastal tow ns sprang up and thrived or fell
w ith the flu ctua tion o f fish stocks. Scots fisherm en found they had to com pete
w ith the Dutch, w ho w ere only to o efficient at harvesting th e ir waters, and this
led to blows in the fifte e n th and seventeenth centuries.
Nowadays we are fig h tin g through diplom atic channels to preserve fishing
lim its around our Scottish coasts, because overfishing has caused a dangerous
depletion in fish stocks.
Early cooking m ethods w ere simple. The fuel fo r the fire was usually peat, and
over this w ould be hung the bake stone, which was superseded by the grid-iron,
and the kail-pot. The form er, which is still very much part o f the Scottish kitchen,
is a round, flat, cast-iron plate w ith a hooped handle. It to o k the place o f the
oven, and on this was baked the daily bread, which o f course was unleavened.
The kail-pot was also made o f iron, and was a large round saucepan w ith a lid
and three legs. It stood over the fire and simmered the stews and soups which
form ed the daily menu.
Hardly anyone possessed a built-in oven, and it was the abbeys and monas
teries which were am ong the firs t to do so. During the eighteenth century the
kitchen range became a widespread acquisition, but before this it was custom
to take the days baking to the public bake houses in these religious establish
ments, which w ere such a focal point in com m unity life.
It was during the seventeenth century th a t Scotlands m ost fam ous product
was properly developed. I refer, o f course, to whisky. Aqua vitae was in fact

Why did people once hold parties just to watch someone vacuum?
England was 0 to crow n the new king, Edward VII, and the throne room
was being prepared fo r the celebration. A t the last minute, it was discovered
th a t the carpets 1 w ere filthy. It was to o late to send the carpets o ut to be
cleaned. W hat else could be done in a hurry?
H. C. Booth had an idea. He was the inventor o f a new kind o f carpet
cleaner. The old kind o f cleaner blew 2 at the dirt. Dirt fle w into the air
and 3 the room and then landed back in the carpet. It w asnt really much
help. M r Booths cleaner sucked the d irt into 4 . He had invented it a fte r
he p ut a handkerchief to his m outh, bent over the dirt, and sucked in his breath.
Dirt 5 the handkerchief, and Mr. Booth knew it w ould be a good idea to
build a machine th a t pulled the d irt in - a vacuum cleaner.
People didnt really like it first, though, because o f its size. It was so big th a t
it had to be 6 a w agon by horses and parked outside a house. Long hoses
were 7 to clean the carpet. People said the machine was so noisy th a t it
frightened the o th e r horses passing by, and they 8 against Mr. B ooths new
invention.
But the king, hearing how the vacuum cleaner had cleaned the throne room,
invited Mr. Booth to give another dem onstration and a fte r th a t he ordered
a vacuum cleaner fo r the palace. Then everybody 9 and it kept the
inventor very busy going fro m house to house w ith the machine. People had
tea parties w hen Mr. Booth was com ing to clean, so th a t th e ir guests could
watch him w o rk w ith his fam ous invention. To make things m ore interesting,
Mr. Booth 10 so th a t everyone could observe the d irt being sucked into
the tank o f the machine.

The baby blankets they w rap the young bat pups in arent 4 - if the baby
bats have been orphaned, they lack 5 o f th e ir m others wings, so these

Divers Find 400-Year0ld Silk Dress in Dutch Shipwreck
Divers in the Wadden Sea found a fancy 0 gow n partially buried in the sand.
The gow n is well-preserved and may be one o f the m ost im portant artefacts
ever brought up fro m the sea floor.
The dress was recovered o ff the Dutch island o f Texel, which was, fo r
a tim e 1 . U nfortunately fo r traders, Texels location also made it a prime
OLVASASKESZSEG
site fo r shipwrecks.
Many o f those wrecks have been washed fu rth e r o ut to sea, but some remain
in the relative shallows surrounding the island. Divers generally avoid disturbing
them , instead w aiting fo r the ocean to reveal the ro ttin g wrecks. Two years ago,
in 2 fro m the 1600s divers found 3 and brought it back to the surface.
They opened the package in the open air and realized they had found the
contents o f 4 , and th a t someone m ust have been p re tty rich. There were
silk knee socks and a jacket, as w ell as a silk bodice em broidered in silver and
gold.
But 5 was a damask gow n w ith a high collar and ruffled sleeves the kind
o f th ing noblew om en o r royalty m ight w ear 6 . For the gow n, anyway, the
shipwreck had been a blessing; on land, if it had been exposed to air and moths,
it w ould be in much w orse shape than 7 .
Besides th a t, 8 also contained leather-bound books. One o f those
books bears the coat o f arms o f King Charles I, which suggests th a t the ships
passengers may have belonged to the royal house o f Stuart.
The gow n and o th e r finds 9 are currently on display at Texels delightful
museum, and w ill return there 10 a fte r they are examined and treated by
conservators.

How did a dog help save a city?
The city o f Nome, Alaska, was desperately w aitin g fo r help. In 1925 , diphtheria,

medicine to inoculate its citizens. Extra medicine was a thousand miles away.
There w ere only some small trading posts surrounded by a huge am ount o f bar

Through the outstanding efforts o f 4 , w ith th e ir dogs collapsing into the

dog, a Siberian husky named Balto, was an excellent sled dog, and Kaasen was

Balto pressed on fo r 8 . When they reached Nome, Kaasen was almost

The Publicity Stunt That Convinced People Elevators Were Safe
Unless you are claustrophobic, stepping into an elevator is 0 ; many o f us
do it several tim es a day. But p rio r to 1854 , people w erent exactly lining up to
use them , no m atter how convenient they w ere cables 1 enough th a t the
public viewed them as death traps.
Then, along came mechanic Elisha Otis and his miracle invention, the safety
OLVASASKESZSEG
elevator. Thanks to his clever engineering, the cable could snap and the elevator
w ould 2 .
However, elevators carried such a stigma th a t no one was w illing to 3 to
O tiss safety elevator. Sales w ere practically nonexistent. To show the public
th a t his invention w orked, Otis orchestrated a stunt th a t w ould 4 we
build, w ork, and live.
In 1854, he constructed a 50-foot elevator at the Exhibition o f the Industry
o f All Nations in New York, g e ttin g P.T. Barnum him self - arguably the m ost
fam ous businessman, showm an and entertainer o f the tim es - to hype up the
crow d. Otis 5 o f riding the elevator 6 to the to p , then cut through the
cable th a t tied the elevator car to the fram e. Shocked onlookers prepared fo r
the inventor to plum m et to a particularly ugly death but w hen 7 , the
elevator dropped only a fe w inches. All safe, he assured the crowd.
Just to 8 , Otis repeated his dem onstration over and over fo r months,
proving to 9 th a t a safe elevator had finally arrived. Today, there are
approxim ately 2.5 m illion Otis elevators in operation.
So, the next tim e you step into an elevator, imagine the cable being cleaved
in tw o and then 10 o f relief, know ing th a t if th a t happened you w ould
be fine.

Anti-sm oking lobbyists said today th a t a ban on smoking in all cars should be
considered. They claim the pollution caused by one cigarette in a car is as bad as
a pub filled w ith smoke. According to a report, stopping smoking in cars is vital
in cu ttin g the exposure o f children and young people to the toxins in second
hand tobacco smoke and it is also a safety issue .
An expert said: Research shows if you smoke in a car you get the same pollu
tion as you get at the end o f an evening in a pub. However, they are n ot calling
fo r an im m ediate ban, but w ant an investigation into w h e th e r legislation should
be introduced.
The leader o f a pro-tobacco group said smokers were facing a w a r and
w anted an end to G overnm ent interference. W ere strongly against any fu rth e r
legislation on smoking in cars. Theres simply no evidence th a t smoking in cars is
a serious distraction and causes accidents. A car is a private space and if people
choose to smoke in th e ir car, th a t is a m atter fo r them .

An unnatural disaster
Climate change over the next 50 years is expected to drive a quarter o f land ani
mals and plants into extinction, according to the firs t comprehensive study into
the effect o f higher tem peratures on the natural w orld.
The size o f the disaster facing the planet shocked those involved in the re
search. They estim ate th a t more than 1 m illion species w ill be lost by 2050.
Much o f th a t loss - m ore than one in 10 o f all plants and animals - is already
irreversible because o f the extra global w arm ing gases already discharged into
the atm osphere. But the scientists say th a t action to curb greenhouse gases
now could save many m ore fro m the same fate.
The research showed th a t species living in m ountainous areas had a greater
chance o f survival because they could simply move uphill w here the climate is
cooler.
Those in fla tte r areas w ere m ore vulnerable, faced w ith the impossible task of
m oving thousands o f miles to find suitable conditions.

Did I ever tell you about m y summer holiday? It w as absolutely good. I went
to Greece w ith m y family for a week. The journey w as much more long
than I expected. While we were travelling I w as reading my new book about
the Greeks, and sleeping. When we got there, we travelled to the hotel by
bus. The hotel w as near the sea! There were a television and air condition, as
well. The beach w as cheap and cool.
While it w as raining, we stayed in the hotel and we were playing cards.
I won 10 times! These were advantageous.
But there were some disadvantageous. For example the fridge w as too
small. You couldnt put there as much food as you needed. And the door
m ust be shut strongly. But these problems werent too exciting (the least for
m e).
I advise this hotel for y ou. Its called Moonshine, and its in Asprovalta, in
the northern part of Greece.
When we arrived home, I realised that I had to learn because the autum n
has arrived.
What about you 4 I am w aiting for your answer.

Shopping can be fun - but only for women. Men are just bored with it.

I think, this statem ent is true, because men usually prefer practical activities.
They figure out w hat they would like to buy, so they go out and buy it.
However V wom en like to connect the enjoyable things w ith practical
things, and shopping is a funny program for them.
Women are fond of trying V clothes, and its not a w aste of time for them.
At the end of the_shopping V. they sit in a caf or in a pub and discuss the
