...With Half-Blood Prince, again we have a stalwart, satisfying visualization of the Rowling cosmos. Screenwriter Steve Kloves (his fifth Potter script) and director David Yates, the BBC veteran (State of Play, Sex Traffic) who also helmed Order of the Phoenix, concoct a potent brew of horror and romance, in which the supercool special effects - notably a swoopy-cam ride with the Death Eaters as they soar over London's monuments and through its creepiest streets - never obscure a commitment to the book's central theme.

The city of Los Angeles spent about $1.4 million on all aspects of the memorial, city officials announced yesterday. This includes cleanup, traffic-diversion costs and overtime pay for the more than 4,000 police officers asked to secure various venues.
