Now that's thinking outside the box! JK style. I like that, keep the theories coming

And Wormtail was not really in OotP. He was only is the penseive sequence. He'll be in book 6, I'm sure of it.

Do you think there is any connection between Sir Patrick Delaney-Podmore and Sturgis Podmore?

More than likely. What will it mean though? JK doesn't usually put things in just because.

Perhaps Nick will, in some way, help Sturgis and thus win the regards of Sir Patrick and finally be allowed into the hunt. That would provide us with at least one happy ending.

won't podmore be released now that the truth has come out as to what happened with him... would he still be a risk since lord v is still out there some where and could take control of him again?... by the way, where/ what do you think happened to lord v and belletrix at the end...? and now she nows that lord v is not a prue blood, so will she think less of him?

According to my calculations, Podmore would have been released before the end of the school year. He was sentenced to six months for his break in of 31 August.

I think that the order will be keeping closer tabs on him in the future.

Bellatrix possibly never realized that he wasn't pure blood, but possibly also so craved the power that was given to her by Voldemort that she will not let such things stop her from following him at this point. Once one chooses to follow and ally with Voldemort it is a decision that holds until death, I do not think think she is smart or devious enough to sneak away. (Yet Snape still lives. )

i think it's really interesting and a great show of JK's talent that one of the characters you "hate" most is one of the most interesting by far... i mean i read the first book never did i think i'd be having theories about snape and his future in your thoughts was the order secret before (during the first round of lord v)... i mean in the way that they all seem to know who the death eaters were, would people have know who was in the order orginally? how long before this goes public now?

I think that the primary reason that the order was kept secret in the last book was that the ministry would not accept that Voldemort had returned. All those who were linked to Dumbledore and Harry Potter with the spreading of the fact were in danger of losing their jobs, or more. Now that the fact that he has indeed returned has been made known, these would no longer be issues.

There would still be the issue of the protection of headquarters and the members from the followers of Voldemort but considering that Podmore was under the imperious curse there is no reason to believe that Voldemort, though unable to find the headquarters, would not know its location.

since dumbledore is the "keeper" for the order i'm sure the house is safe in that sense but i agree that their names are known to lord V. worder if they have a weird initiation ceremony into the order ?

I'm not sure but we may find out in the next book. Fred and George are now not only of age but also out of school.

I wonder if he gets the day off from filming to celebrate. Even if he doesn't, my guess is that that particular set is alot like a party anyway.

Thank you both Skye and EllenA. I figured I wouldn't win, (that is of course unless there is a heck of a lot of posts before midnight)
I just had lunch with the President of the bank, so all is good.

Daniel just turned 14, Emma turned 13 in April, Rupert will be 15 in November, and Tom will be 16 in September. They are all currently filming the third movie that would assume them to be 13.

Any idea why Dumbledore hired Trelawny in the first place?

Dumbledore is a very compasionate person. Aside from feeling that he probably was her only chance of employment, maybe he felt as if she could actually prophesize again (She did in book 3) once she let go of her pretensiousness.
I think Dumbledore gives people a chance when no one else would.
Hagrid
Trelawny
Draco
Mundungus
etc. etc.

I wasn't sure if it was that or if it was that he doesn't see that particular field as being one that would be of much use in the classrooms. (Those who have the gift, would be able to use it on their own without the coaching of a classroom setting.)

i think given the import of her 1st prophecy, i think he wanted her close by not only so he could protect her from lord v who knew she had told the prophecy but also incase she actaully did it again:) i agree that he proablly put little stock in it so he doesn't really care what she teaches, he even kept her there after umbridge fired her

How could she reveal to Voldemort what the prophecy was? I don't think she herself even knows, does she?

I think Trelawny knows the prophecy. Every year, when she predicts the student's fates, she predicts a horrible and untimly death for Harry.

i think she knows now that harry is grown or maybe even figured it out when he lived as a baby. but i'm not sure. remember that someone over heard her tell dumbledore and they told lord v... i'm not sure lord v knew who she was then, but he has his ways... i guess she knows what she says... i mean she's always predicting harry's death maybe a deep down connection to her prophecy... but even if she doesn't know, dumbledore does and could be protecting her for her own good...
