Harry Potter Plagiarism Case Dismissed by US Judge
J.K Rowling, author of the ultra famous Harry Potter series has been cleared of all plagiarism charges by US Judge Scheindlin. According to the AAP news source published on Yahoo:
"A US federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit alleging the wildly successful Harry Potter books were plagiarised from a story from a little-known British author.
The suit filed in New York against the publisher of the J.K. Rowling books had argued the stories were inspired by Adrian Jacobs's The Adventures of Willy the Wizard No 1 Livid Land," published in 1987.
Judge Shira Sheindlin wrote that there were major differences between the works, contrary to claims that Rowling had borrowed from Jacobs's book for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
"Indeed, a reading of the works unequivocally confirms that they are distinctly different in both substance and style, and ultimately engender very different visceral responses from their readers," the judge said in a 49-page ruling.
"The contrast between the total concept and feel of the works is so stark that any serious comparison of the two strains credulity."
Scholastic, the US publisher for the Potter series, said it was satisfied by the dismissal of the suit from the estate of Jacobs."

"Tendulkar counters inspired spell by Steyn
By Ken Borland
CAPE TOWN, Jan 4 (Reuters) - Sachin Tendulkar effectively countered an inspired new ball spell from Dale Steyn to take India closer to South Africa's first innings total on the third day of the third and deciding test on Tuesday.
Tendulkar had reached 136 not out, his 51st test century, in India's 316 for six in reply to South Africa's 362 at tea. The series is tied 1-1.
Steyn struck immediately after lunch when he trapped Cheteshwar Pujara (2) lbw with an unplayable delivery that pitched on leg stump and then swung away late to hit the batsman on the back pad.
He was quick to follow up with the wicket of Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who edged another fine away swinger to be caught at third slip for a duck.
The world's number one ranked bowler should also have disposed of Harbhajan Singh when another fantastic delivery had the batsman groping to no avail as the ball swung into off stump. But to one nation's dismay and another's joy, the bails somehow failed to fall and Harbhajan had an unlikely reprieve on six.
Steyn was rested after a brilliant spell of two for three in seven overs and the threat eased for India's batsmen. Tendulkar and Harbhajan (34 not out) had added 69 by tea. "
