A static binary star solution for OGLE-2008-BLG-513 has been found. The mass ratio and separation for this solution are q~0.28, s~0.86. This model has a chi^2 comparable to the chi^2 of the model with a planetary mass ratio and orbital motion that was presented in this paper. Because the model with a static, binary star lens is simpler than the model originally presented in this paper, Occam's Razor says it is likely to be the correct solution. Consequently, this paper has been withdrawn from ApJ.
