To help Hagrid from trouble of illegal having Dragon, the trio, Harry, Ron and Hermione try to reach Ron’s older brother-Charlie Weasley. Charlie learns and works dragons in Romania and knows how to treat dragons very well, in order to plan to take the dragon away from their place as to be free of troublesome because it is illegal to own dragons in the school.

Finally, they are very seriously penalized, and Gryffindor is docked 150 points-House points usually are awarded to students at Hogwarts school, the school of Witchcraft and Wizardry where sorted of divided into four houses - Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slyntherin, that correctly answer a question, do somethings good deeds, or win Quidditch Match. But the points can also be taken away for rule breaking such as the happening case-having a dragon.

On top of that, part of their penalty is to go into the enchanted forest with Hagrid to search out who has been killing unicorn not long time ago. In the dark forest, Harry encounters a mysterious hooded man drinking a dead unicorn blood. That hooded figure makes an attempt to kill Harry but Harry is rescued by a friendly centaur, Firenze, who explains him that the assailant figure who was trying to attack Harry is actually Lord Voldemort.

Future more, Harry reveals now that is Voldemort who has been trying hard for a long time to steal the Sorcerer’s Stone and he wants immortality, to be an eternal life, then he drinks unicorn blood.

Harry makes a decision he has to search for the Sorcerer’s Stone earlier than Voldemort does. At that night, they, Harry, Ron, and Hermione sneak off to the mysterious corridor-the forbidden third-floor, the place that Harry accidentally find it before. They get past the guard dog by put him to fall asleep with playing music tune on whistle that Harry got it from Hagrid for Christmas.

While they feat many dangerous guarding and get closer to their destination where the stone is, Harry finally finds himself immediate facing with Quirrell in front of him. Quirrell wants to kill Harry then he announces that Harry must die by his attack.

Harry sees the stone in his pocket, and he actually senses it in his pocket too. However, Harry does not want to tell Quirrell the truth what it is in the Mirror of Erised. He tells a lie that he sees something else. But Quirrell can smell the rat that Harry is lying him, so he puts off his turban and reveals Voldemort’s face on the back of his head.

Quirrell is under Voldemort’s control. Voldemort is inhabiting Quirrell’s body. Voldemort uses Quirrell body to do things as his assignment. He tells Quirrell to kill Harry. With unknown, when Quirrell attacks and touches the boy, his body is immediately burned-out.

As a result of fight afterword, it makes Harry black out-undergo a sudden and temporary loss of his consciousness at the forbidden place.

[[It Ain't Sauce, It's Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life]] Book-Hub Reviewed by Michael Leng

Steve Martorano said "How Food Saved My Life." See the owner of several Cafe Martorano in the prime locations in U.S. writes about his menu-the Best Meatballs in the World, and the story how food saved his life.

Image shown under down here is luring my mount-watering; well can you guess it is wine or his dish! lol.

Buy Now!

Have you ever tried genuine or contemporary Italian food?

For me, I have had it several times in the restaurants in my hometown.

The book “It Ain’t Sauce, It’s Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life” makes me think about my one of my old day in the Italian restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand.

In the heart of Bangkok city, the busiest place such as Silom, Siam, Chidlom, Lăng-sŭan soi and Phloenchit are very popular and well known by the people. There are many tall building, luxury hotels, service apartments, famous supermarkets, embassies and restaurants-both local Thai and international cuisines.

The areas mentioned above are the most best places for running somewhat high-end business. In Thai, I would call it “ย่านคนรวย” [yâan kon ruay] the area for the rich- the one who have high-earning individuals. Cost of living is higher than the other places.

I’d personally rather not to go there if I don’t have any necessary thing to do in such a horrible area like that, it's because of the two main reasons;-

That’s my first reason.

Secondly, the unmoved traffic- sometimes you have to spend your time for get moving your car from place to place 2 miles by an hour. I hate traffic jam. In addition, I absolutely believe everyone does. However, I don’t know how the people over there could stand with this fucking city in freezing spell!

However, one day, some of my old close friends called and invited me to dining out together. They don’t find where to go yet. Some recommend going for the ordinary Thai restaurants while the others have some different idea in their mind.

They have kept discussion for choosing where to go a week, the conclusion came out to go for having Italian food in Lansuan soi area, because one of the group worked around there and have tried it before,- she insisted the food is great and the taste is good. I agree with them even I know that Langsuan soi is one place in Bangkok that having the terrible traffic, particularly, in rush hours, and I hate it, the traffic jam.

We have set up the date of appointment at the end of the same month. Because it is the date for everyone getting the salary, then we could share and afford money for our foods and drinks.

Once when the appointment date is due, I took a bus and took off at the main street, between Sukhumvit and Phloenchit, and taking a walk for a few minutes to the blocks the restaurant located.

This Italian restaurant is fully with customers. It’s very busiest and business trends to grow up well. I only counted the numbers of the guests and the tables they have in the restaurant, I can guess how the business trends to be.

Well, what I were ordering was difficult for me to know. It was my first time entering to genuine Italian restaurant. The waiter worked hard on trying to explain me how the food come out look like and their taste mouthwatering were.

We ordered several dishes. I don’t remember what to call all our ordering menus except the “New Zealand Mussels with Cheese.” I didn’t make any more questions about the mussel which is stated “New Zealand Mussels”- imported from New Zealand or they just only can be found in domestic fresh market.

To eat with hot is recommended. Noticed those mussels baked with cheese severed with 4-5 in uncover shells on its top. We have shared those mussels baked for one each. There were five shells in a plate,-match to the number of us.

Well, after I have glanced the name of the book “It Ain’t Sauce, It’s Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life”, my saliva is started very greedy for meatballs while I also wonder the line which is stated “…, and How Food Saved My Life” is about? All the unveil issue were clear until I have learned that Steve Martorano, the “It Ain’t Sauce, It’s Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life” book’s author.

He is saved from the glamor of crime and easy money bring to bear a powerful yank on his life until he began his own food business-sandwich, which later on developed and expanded several branches in a chain of popular and successful restaurant.

In my personal opinion, I think Steve Martorano has a gentle mind under his subconscious,- not let his life stray a blocks in the wrong direction, grew up in a family with mob ties in South Philadelphia, and somethings bad around him that it’s easy to bring anyone to the trap.

To talk about Steve Martorano’s story is interested me too. I admire him and anyone who behaves the same like him, Steve Martorano. He started from small to large- selling sandwiches. Said no to his future was to drive a truck or join the mob, in despite of some of neighborhoods do.

Started running his first restaurant-selling and serving homemade sandwiches with a side of his own style- Steve’s personality, it(Steve’s restaurants business) grow up dramatically and become the recipe and a chain restaurants business today.- Steve Martorano is the owner of Cafe Martorano in Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood, Florida, and two Martorano's locations in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Not only the restaurants he has been dealing, but also a Martorano wine label, pasta sauces, and a line of clothing that he has launched and. He lives in Fort Lauderdale at the present time.

Latest one of his work which is topped up from his food and restaurants, is writing a book “It Ain’t Sauce, It’s Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life”

STEVE MARTORANO’s life story inspires me to wake up for the new day with a fully hope of successful in my life. Perhaps to start my own one business with a small restaurant for a single menu “Rice steamed with chicken boiled and soup” in Thai: ข้าวมันไก่ต้มเสริฟ์กับน้ำซูปพร้อมน้ำจิ้ม [kâao man gài dtôm săy-ríf gàp nám súp próm nám jîm].

Thanks for a good cookbook “It Ain’t Sauce, It’s Gravy: Macaroni, Homestyle Cheesesteaks, the Best Meatballs in the World, and How Food Saved My Life” from Steve Martorano that it may be help me to start my turn-out for the rich. Nevertheless, I am sure if I won’t go open my restaurant at the fucking area somewhere, which the cars can crawl a bit by a bit every day…

If yes, we would like to recommend you one of good book for them.

Click for more detail

He,Jimmy Fallon, has written the book, Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA, and scheduled to launch on June 9, 2015.

Jimmy Fallon married with Nancy Fallon, and they have two daughters, Winnie Rose, born July 2013 and Frances Cole, a baby. They live together in New York City.

Have you ever watched the Tonight Show, one of the most popular entertainers show in the word and NBC’S?

Jimmy Fallon is the Show host as it is stated above. He works for a TV show and authors book. Talking about his books, the first one is “Snow Fight”, be on bookstores for selling in year 2005.

“Snowball Fight” book is a kids book as same as “Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA”. It contains story about how kids having fun when their school is temporary closed and canceled for snow.

It makes me recall to my past time when I was working for one of the manufacturing. Whenever the factory has to stop their production lines due to the halt of electricity supply problem. All staffs and workers have fun for stopping their operation and they just wait for resume to work again once electricity power issue is fixed. During waiting time, they chitchatted together while some went to find some cans of soft drink and sipped. It was very fun, ha ha.- I confused myself what I am talking about!

“Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA” is the book that Jimmy Fallon has written by inspiration of his daughter, Winnie Rose, because as everyone may be knows well the word “Mama” is commonly for kids would say it when they grow up and reach as their age-around 10 month +.

Nevertheless, Jimmy Fallon has some created idea to make his first kid, Winnie Rose, to say “Dada”.

After you have read the book till the end, you and your kids will find the amusing tale of father attempting to coax his very young kids into speaking “Dada” on and adventure that including meeting many type of fun animals too.

Why did he try to do this his project?

I think the word “Dada” is a sort of the word producing the sound amidst the word “Mama and Papa” conjugates together and then it could be made out a new word “Dada” accordingly-this is my personal opinion. Just forget it and find it yourself.

How does this book look like?

“Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA” Book is printed one thick paperboard, to withstand the abuse of toddlers and infants.

It is with around 500 words and for kids at age between 1-3 years, has aboard round 12-16 pages long. This is generally board book genre for very young kids’ books.

How did Jimmy’s attempt ion and up with?

Do you unbelievably, Jimmy lost that fight to his daughter!?!?
