Here’s What Bezos is Now Picking Over Amazon. [online investing daily head logo]( [Web version]( | [Unsubscribe]( Sometimes, colleagues of Online Investing Daily share special offers with us that we think our readers should be made aware of. Below is one such special opportunity that we believe deserves your attention. In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth book in J. K. Rowling’s series, Voldemort is back, big time. He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, essentially the embodiment of all evil in the Potter universe, was resurrected from the dead in the fourth book, and in the fifth, revealed himself at the Ministry of Magic, quashing the doubts of wizards who said he couldn’t possibly have returned. But though the sixth book, which is 10 years old this year, ends with a bang (an Avada Kedavra, more like), the first two-thirds of it are remarkably calm, considering the whole wizarding world is supposed to be at war. The Harry Potter books straddle a variety of genres, taking the basic British children’s boarding-school story and adding fantasy to the mix. But in Half-Blood Prince, Rowling seems to be using the conventions of true-crime books to enhance her magical world. The story is primarily dedicated to Harry and the Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore building a psychological profile of their antagonist. Throughout the book, Harry takes special lessons with Dumbledore, and their meetings are spent sifting through the memories of people who knew Voldemort as a child, back when he went by his birth name, Tom Riddle. At one point, Harry asks: “Sir … is it important to know all this about Voldemort’s past?” “Very important, I think,” said Dumbledore. This isn’t quite the same as the criminal profiling that the FBI and forensic psychologists do, because of the critical difference that we already know who the perp is (Pale, tall, snake slits where his nose should be). In criminal investigations, the point is to take the crime and figure out what the psychology might have been behind it, in the hopes of catching the criminal. The “why” is employed in service of the “who.” Of course, when the killer you’re after is the most powerful Dark wizard of all time, simply knowing who he is isn’t enough to catch him. And catching him isn’t enough to stop him, since he inconveniently split his soul into seven pieces and hid six of them in objects called Horcruxes. To kill him, all seven pieces must be destroyed. Harry and Dumbledore are wading through memories to confirm Dumbledore’s suspicions that Voldemort created Horcruxes, and to figure out which objects he might have chosen. The “who” is employed in the service of the “what” and the “why.” The young Tom Riddle conforms to many of the classic stereotypes about serial killers. As in real criminal profiling, this endeavor involves a lot of inferences and conjecture. “From this point forth, we shall be leaving the firm foundation of fact and journeying together through the murky marshes of memory into thickets of the wildest guesswork,” Dumbledore says. What they discover about young Tom Riddle conforms to many of the classic stereotypes about serial killers—his parents were unhappy, he was a loner, he bullied other children and tortured animals. Most importantly: “The young Tom Riddle liked to collect trophies,” Dumbledore says. “You saw the box of stolen articles he had hidden in his room. These were taken from victims of his bullying behavior, souvenirs, if you will, of particularly unpleasant bits of magic. Bear in mind this magpie-like tendency, for this, particularly, will be important later.” [This obscure financial document...]( [document]( It’s actually notoriously difficult to predict who will become a serial killer. Human behavior is just too complex. For example, research has shown that presence of the famous “Macdonald Triad”—animal cruelty, setting fires, and bed-wetting—in childhood is not necessarily predictive of adult violent behavior. But this is fiction, and it makes perfect sense that Rowling would pepper Voldemort’s past with clues people can recognize and understand. In fact, in this tale of good versus evil, it would be easier to just let Voldemort be a tautology—he’s evil because he’s evil. Instead, Rowling grounds his evil in comprehensible human flaws, and shows that to defeat evil we not only have to fight it, but to try to understand where it comes from in the first place.   Proves that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is dumping BILLIONS of dollars of AMZN stock… Парубок плівся повагом, позакладавши руки назад себе; позирав навкруги своїми блискучими очима; іноді зупинявся й довго розглядав зелене нив'я. То знову йшов; то знов становився де-небудь на згірку — і знов оглядав поле. Ось перейшов і драний місточок посеред лук, на низині, у балці. Під ним ще не висохли весняні калюжі — аж зацвіли, позеленіли: кумкають в них жаби рано й вечір. От опинивсь на невеличкім горбку по той бік місточка; став, обернувся лицем до його; глянув на рудку; перевів погляд на крайнє жито. "Отже, тут кращі хліба, ніж під селом, — подумав сам собі, — тут, мабуть, сильніший дощ пройшов..." Знов повернувся, — і рушив далі.
