6.) Credits
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is in my opinion a better
version than The Sorcerer's Stone was. As an example, during the first
game you start off already inside Hogwarts School. On the Chamber of
Secrets, however, you get to perform many enjoyable tasks at The Burrow
along with Ron and his family. Harry also talks on this game, and it
makes the adventure more amusing. There are a lot more Wizard Cards to
collect in this game, which you will use mainly to unlock the Founder's
Tower after dueling each House Champion. Okay, now that you have a
little idea on the game, let's get going.
During this guide you will often see symbols, which will represent each
action key:
Triangle = Triangle Button
O = Circle Button
X = X Button
Square = Square Button
All The "R" and "L" Keys (R1, R2, L1, L2)
3.) CHARACTERS (Main)
The main character of the game.
Your best friend. Saves you from the Dursleys and helps you through your
adventure at Hogwarts.
Your other best friend. Does most of the brainwork, such as brewing the
Polyjuice Potion.
Your enemy, like last year. Will challenge you at the Dueling Club and
become the new Slytherin Seeker.
Ron's young sister, starting her first year at Hogwarts.
Will sell you Wizard Cards if you give them 50 beans each time. However,
they do not sell you all the ones you need. Most of them you must find
around the castle.
The new Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher. Very conceited, but could
he be a fraud? Hermione thinks he's great.
A House Elf who just doesn't know how to save people's lives.
Your BIG friend who lives in the hut at the Castle Grounds. He will help
you cure Ron when he curses himself, and will ask you to free his
pumpkin patch from gnomes.
The mysterious owner of the enchanted diary. Guides you through his
memory and reveals his secret at the end.
A ghost of a girl living in the girl's bathroom. Reveals to be killed by
the Basilisk 50 years ago.
An annoying little first year who won't leave you alone until he has
enough pictures.
The Gryffindor House Ghost again. Will invite you to his Deathday Party.
After the Story Book has ended, you will appear at The Burrow along with
Ron. He'll welcome you to his house and then you will hear Mrs. Weasley
ordering him to rid the attic of a ghoul. To get up the attic, you will
have to use your Flipendo Knock-Back Jinx by pressing the X button and
push the crates into place. Then, climb up the smaller one and auto-jump
to the next. Follow Ron up the window to the attic.
Getting the Ghoul!
The repulsive ghoul will be throwing pipes all over the floor. You will
have to use the chest Ron gives you to try and catch each pipe before
you it hits the floor. If you can get all pipes into the chest before
time runs out, the ghoul will fly into the attic closet and Mrs. Weasley
will finally stop screaming at Ron. She, however, will then ask you to
de-gnome her garden by finding Mr. Weasley first.
De-Gnoming The Garden
Destroy the barrels on your way with a charged Flipendo by holding down
the X button until a bright sphere forms on top of your wand, then
letting go of the button. Follow Ron and you will then find Ginny
Weasley. Ron will tell you to talk to her. She will tell you to guide
her Puffskein through a few bushes to feed it, revealing Bertie Bott's
Beans. After you get a few beans, Ginny will give you your first Famous
Witches and Wizards Card. Then, you will go through the door she tells
you to and you will find Mr. Weasley. He will tell you to levitate each
of his crates and smash them into some rocks at the far end of the small
barn he is in. Press the X button to cast the Levitation Charm, and then
guide the crates and junk over the rocks. Press the Triangle button to
drop them on the rocks. The very last junk you crush will reveal you the
De-Gnoming Gloves you will need.
Follow Ron through the next door. You're now ready to De-Gnome his
mother's garden. Tap the Square Button as quickly as you can according
to how far you want to throw the gnome. Harry will start spinning with
it. Try to hit any of the targets set for you by pressing the Triangle
Button when the arrow below you points to it. Repeat the same pattern
until all five gnomes are gone. If you get lots of extra points (I got
more than 800 at first for this) you will get a Wizard Card.
Fred will now ask you if you want to get into a Wizard's Duel (hooray!)
so you can train yourself. He will take you to The Burrow's Dueling
Arena. All you have to do is try to hit him with a Flipendo. The more
you charge it, the more energy it'll take away from Fred. Remember to
move around quickly so you can dodge his spell. When you win both rounds
you need to, Harry will do Expelliarmus and disarm Fred.
Now you can get special jinxes from the sparkling TV to your right. Hide
behind it a few times and when Fred shoots his spell, it will hit the
TV. A glowing blue sphere will pop out. Run over it to pick it up. Then,
press the O button to shoot that special jinx. (You can also charge
these jinxes by holding the O button.) When you win, you will disarm
Fred again.
Ron now needs your help to find his sister Ginny. You can choose to
follow his path or the other one. It doesn't make a difference, because
you will wind up in the same place. Mr. Weasley's charmed junk will be
all around the place, so you need to keep ready to charm or hit
anything. When you have to battle a Washing Machine (sounds silly when
you say it) it is a good tip to press the R1 Button and lock your target
on it. Charged Flipendos will take more energy away from it then regular
You need to make sure you visit every single area of the little
"jungle." Some areas, which you would find otherwise unimportant,
contain many Bertie Bott's Beans and even some Wizard Cards!
When you get through the "jungle" you will find Ginny near her Puffskein
again. She will ask you to Flipendo the Puffskein so that he can spit
out her Remembrall. She will let you keep it. Press the Start Button
anytime after now to see what the Remembrall is reminding you to do.
Now you'll have to get to Diagon Alley by Floo Powder. Harry will be
sliding down a very long roadway-like slide. It is not a very good idea
to press the X button, because it will cause you to slide down faster,
making you miss lots of Bertie Botts Beans and even causing you to fall
Now you have to fly the flying car to Hogwarts. You will enter a tunnel,
and the Hogwarts Express will pop-up right behind you. Watch out! You
will need to pick up as many Speed Boosts as you can along the way to
keep ahead of the train. Do not worry about steering the car left and
right-this will happen automatically.
After you drive a while, you will continue, but this time you can
collect a few pickups to repair the car, thus rewarding you with more
energy. Do your best to keep away from the train and make it out of the
The car will then crash into the Whomping Willow at the Grounds of
Hogwarts. You will be thrown out of the car, but Ron will be stuck
inside. You will have to cast a Flipendo Spell at the mouth of the tree.
Avoid each swing from the tree branches. While the Willow's branch is
still pounding the ground, start charging your Flipendo. When the branch
rises up again, walk closer and shoot the spell.
Once in a while the willow will take the car and Ron on its branches and
smash it into the floor. Then a few red rings will shoot from the area
where it hit towards you. Walk away from the rings, charge your
Flipendo, get closer when the branch raises the car again, and shoot.
Repeat this pattern until the Whomping Willow lets you go and you run
The Story Book will appear again. When it is over, you have to follow
Ron through the castle and get to the Gryffindor Common Room. Get all
the beans in the beginning. Then you will meet Colin Creevey. He will
take your picture. Then walk through the door he went through. Continue
to climb the stairs and you will get to another area with Colin there
again. He starts taking snapshots. Just ignore him. On the wall to the
far left will be a flat, small bookcase. Go near it and press the Square
button to enter the secret passage. Get all you can in there.
When you come out, go through the next door and follow Ron up the main
stairway. He will lead you to a door on your left. Follow him.
When you get to the Fat Lady's Portrait, you and Ron will realize you
don't know the password. Guide Harry up the stairs behind him and then
go through the first door you see into the Library.
Now you're going to find Nick. After he talks to you about his
application for the Headless Hunt, climb on the small bookcase to your
left, then jump onto the other ones collecting all Bertie Botts Beans.
Press R1 (optional) when you get to the flying books and cast Flipendo
on them. Then get the beans around the pole near you and enter your
left. Go straight and you will find Hermione. She is going to scold you
and then tell you're the password.
Note a secret passage as you leave. Turn back and walk ahead, then turn
left. Another little bookcase will be a secret passage.
Leave the library through the same way you came. Go to the Fat Lady and
tell her the password. Enter the Common Room.
When you get inside Ron will present you to the Cups they are awarding
this year for Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts and Quidditch
Training. Fred & George are inside, and they will explain about the
Founder's Tower. They tell you the passage to the House Duelist
Champions (a statue behind them) and that you need a certain amount of
Wizard Cards to get into the portraits and battle each House Champion.
Beating them all will reveal the entrance to the Founder's Tower.
Now you have to attend your Herbology Class.
Follow Ron and the other students out of the Common Room and up the
stairs. After you pass the place where there are two Chocolate frogs, go
straight-ahead and turn right, and ahead again. There will be a
discolored part on the wall. It is a secret passage. Walk in. You'll
find a large pillar across from you. Flipendo it on its left. Climb it
after it slides down. Enter the door and battle the two walking armors
inside. Come back out. Then Flipendo the right of the pillar. Climb up.
Enter the door and shrink the two large rats inside by casting Flipendo
on them as many times as requires. Leave. A door will be unlocked across
from the pillar. Enter it. After you rise up the pad in front of the
pillar, climb the bookcase, jump onto the pillar, and onto the pad with
the Wizard Card on it. Get it.
Get out of the secret passage and turn left. Run ahead. Follow Ron
Run besides all the students until you reach the Herbology Door. Enter
Now you have to get to Herbology Class on time. Run through the floating
magical hourglasses. When the timer starts, leap onto the leaves that
appear. Enter the next door. Fall down and climb up the steps across
from you. Enter the next door above. Jump on the leaves again, then onto
where Professor Sprout is. If you got there before the timer passed the
red arrow on the time bar, you will win the Herbology Race Cup.
Professor Sprout is going to teach you the Incendio Duo spell. As in
last year's adventure, hit the correct control symbols as Professor
Sprout's wand's beam hits it. If you press the correct buttons at the
exact time as hers repetitively, you will get an "A" grade and win the
Herbology Lesson Cup.
Professor Sprout will ask you to do a little task for her. On the next
room, she will explain to you about Mandrakes and ask you to get her
three or more. Go on the right path. Hermione will point to you that
some ugly fat slugs are attacking a Mandrake. Conjure your Incendio Duo
Spell by holding the X button and releasing it onto the slugs. Black
slugs need two hits to disappear, and the yellow ones need four. After
you beat all the slugs, use Wingardium Leviosa to pull the Mandrake out
of the earth. Walk to it to collect it.
Continue through the next path. Defeat the slugs and collect the
Mandrakes you find. If you are in doubt if you are going the right way,
remember this hint: there are many different flowery doors on your way.
They have different names on them. If the doors you enter each have a
different name than the last, then you can rest assure you have the
right path.
I have collected up to five mandrakes so far. Hand Professor Sprout the
plants and she will give you points.
When you get out of your Herbology Class, Hedwig will come and drop a
letter from Oliver Wood to you. Wood will be requesting your presence at
Quidditch Training, which is located across from the bridge from the
Hogwarts Main Entrance. Before you follow Hedwig to the Training Pitch,
turn left. Enter the gap between the tress towards Hagrid's Hut. Follow
the path located across from his hut's door. Collect the beans you find
and destroy the giant orange snails with Flipendo. Move straight ahead
and enter a secret passage to your left. Collect the beans in there.
Before you leave, you should enter a second passageway to your left,
also represented by a discolored area on the stonewall. Once there, you
will find a note from Dean Thomas challenging you to a soccer practice.
You will see a small soccer ball on the floor, which you have to get
through the poles before time runs out. It is hard to control that ball,
and I suggest you walk slowly towards it. If you run too fast, it'll be
kicked too hard and out of the way. If you make it, lots of beans will
fall down for you to collect.
After collecting the beans inside, you can leave. Get out of the path
and out of Hagrid's Hut, back to the Herbology area. Now follow Hedwig
to the Quidditch Training Pitch.
As you follow him, keep a lookout for beans. You will meet with Neville,
who will tell you he missed Herbology because he got lost inside a
secret passage behind him. Enter it. There you will find some small
purple Bouncing Bulbs, which you can Flipendo for beans. But there is
also a larger Bulb which gets red and attacks you when you Flipendo it.
I still don't know how to kill that thing! If you know how, e-mail me. I
am getting angry at it.
Read a second letter from Wood saying he is still waiting, and hurry
into the pitch Hedwig leads you to.
Wood's training is very similar to your last training on The Sorcerer's
Stone. You have to fly through ten rings at first. You also must choose
what broom you like. The options are: an up-and-down broom, where fly up
by pressing "up" on the controller and down by pressing "down," or the
second one, where you fly up by pressing "down" and down by pressing
"up." Now you have to fly through rings and grab the Snitch, in a
different way. A hand with a Quidditch Glove will appear on the screen.
Move it around the screen with the directional buttons. Once you move it
over the snitch, press the X button to catch it. Do your best and you
can win all Golden Wings and all the points for Gryffindor.
Now Ron will suggest a Wizard's Duel so that you can get better and beat
the House Champions. Battle him the same way you battled George, and get
him to Flipendo the sparkling flower to your right for special jinxes.
When you win, Ron will announce Slytherin has a new Seeker. Malfoy will
boast about it being him. Hermione will diss him and he'll call her a
Mudblood. (How dare he?) Ron is going to try and curse Malfoy, but his
broken wand will shoot the curse at himself. Malfoy is going to leave
laughing his pale head off, and Hermione will ask you to follow Ron to
Hagrid's Hut, not letting him out of your sight.
Ron will run very rapidly along a path to Hagrid's Hut. You have to run
after him, keeping up, or you will lose him. He will be burping slugs,
which will make certain areas where you run very slippery. Be very
careful not to fall down on narrow places, and turn and steer very
carefully, as the slightest stop might cause him to run out of your
sight. Follow him all the way to Hagrid's Hut. Try hard to get the beans
you need, but be careful. Worrying too much about them will help you
lose Ron.
Hagrid will ask you to take Fang's bowl and, just like you did with the
Ghoul back at The Burrow, collect Ron's slugs as they pelt to the floor.
The bowl will fill up and not allow any more slugs after you have
collected exactly five of them. When that happens, steer the bowl over
to the barrel on the left and hold down the Square Button to empty it.
Then start collecting more. Be quick and pay attention to how many slugs
are falling into your bowl!
You, Ron and Hermione will appear back in the castle. Hermione will
announce Defense Against the Dark Arts time. Ron will run to the Common
Room to brush his teeth again, and you have to follow Hermione to
Lockhart's spell lesson room.
Run after Hermione to the new unlocked door. Collect as many beans as
you need and check for flat bookcases and discolored wall areas. When
you get to the door where Professor Lockhart is waiting, Ron will come
along. He and Hermione will enter the door. Don't go yet! There are a
few places you really should visit first. Turn right on Lockhart's room.
The bookcase in there is a secret passage. Run in and take the pathway
inside, collecting everything you need, such as beans and chocolate
After you leave the secret passage, you should go straight ahead. There
are a few more secret passageways in there, represented by discolored
areas on the wall and also the flat bookcases. They all contain pickups,
and you will get your next Wizard Card. However, there is a place where
you can only get the Card after you have learned your Verdimillious Duo
Spell. When you have no more places to go, go back and enter the Defense
Against the Dark Arts Room.
You have to get to Lockhart's class on time. Run through the hourglasses
and then climb up the floating table in front of you. When you climb it,
more tables will appear. When you reach the third table, DO NOT jump on
the room that will be across from you! You must face left and jump onto
the next table, then onto the next room in front of you.
Run through the corridor dodging the armors Dobby did the "favor" to
charm to hit you. Continue through that path. Run up the curved stone
hill on the coming entrance and jump onto the next floating pads, and
then enter the door. Jump onto the next. At the very last room, you will
see Lockhart waving at you from the huge gap in the middle of the place,
yelling "Come on, Harry!" Wait until the moving pad journeys to the
center of the gap, the jump onto it. Jump again to where Lockhart is. If
you got there before the time bar passed the red arrow, you will win the
Defense Against the Dark Arts Race Cup.
Professor Lockhart will start his class by boasting about his five-time
winning of Witch Weekly's most charming smile. Then he will teach the
class the Full Body-Bind spell Petrificus Totalus. As you did during
Herbology Class, follow his so-called "expensive" wand as it hits the
symbols on the screen. Try, as in your last class, to hit the symbols
right when his wand hits it, so that you may win another "A" and get
Lockhart's Lesson Cup.
Now, Lockhart will show you one of your "worst fears." A freshly caught
Cornish Pixie. The pixie will fly out of its cage and Professor Lockhart
will run away. Hermione will show you how to put the Pixie back in its
cage, by casting Petrificus Totalus (hold down the X Button, then
release it) and casting Wingardium Leviosa on it, steering it back into
its place. Defeat the next pixie to come, then turn back and run to the
staircases. Professor Lockhart will congratulate you, then tell you to
check up on Ron on the next floor, and run away again. Go up the stairs
and into the door.
Defeat the pixies inside this door the same way as you defeated your
last one. When they are all in their cage, the next door will unlock,
and you may proceed.
The next room will have more pixies. Put them back in their cage as
quickly as you can, or they will fly off again one at a time. Rapidly
lock them up and go into the next unlocked door.
You will pop-up in a corridor with a very slippery-waxed floor. Steer
Harry slowly down on it, picking up the Every Flavor Beans you need. Go
onto the next door.
Rid the next room of the next amount of pixies.
When you have finally gotten through all the doors, you will show up
with Lockhart, Ron and Hermione on the room you started in. Lockhart
will award you 20 House Points, then say he could have defeated the
pixies in a twirl of his wand, the show-off!
Nearly Headless Nick will now invite you, Hermione and Ron to attend his
Deathday Party. After the three of you accept, you will come down to
Potions Class.
You have to mix a Winggendwelld Potion again, just like last year...(why
couldn't it be something new?) Snape will scold you, Ron and Neville
about disobedience and then you have to follow the same instructions as
last year to prepare your potion. It is really very simple.
Snape will then just dismiss the class.
Nick will appear just outside the common room at Gryffindor Tower and
tell you hurry to his party. Ron and Hermione will already be down there
on the dungeons. Follow Nick down the stairs and into the door he goes
You really have to keep an eye now on secret passages you haven't
visited before. This is your chance to get many beans, frogs and Wizard
Cards! You will need to know Verdimillious Duo to get one of them,
however, as mentioned before.
When you get to the dungeons with Nick, he's going to glide through a
huge pinkish lake of boiling potion water or something, which is
something you can't do.
Peeves will pop-up and taunt you. Turn right, the left, and enter the
door. You will show up in a disgusting slug pit, where the floor is full
of slippery slug mucus. (Could it get any more pitiful?) Slowly enter
and make an Incendio spell to defeat the slugs inside. You will get more
house points for that, too. Run up the stairway across from you. Peeves
will fly in and talk about you having an ugly face. Just ignore him and
enter the room to your right. Pull the lever and leave. Now, enter the
room that was to your left. Pull the lever.
Go back to the beginning of the dungeons. There will be two floating
pads, which you have to jump on and make your way to the other end of
the boiling lake. Enter the door and you will now get into the Deathday
party with your friends.
There's going to be a whole mess of ghosts in Nick's party. Peeves will
then steal the present Ron got for him, and once again it's your job to
get it back.
You will appear in view mode. (Mode when all you see on the screen is
your opponent, the background behind him, and a red little circle to aim
your spell.) Peeves will keep hiding behind the food counter, then fly
up again and throw some food at you. My tip is to first destroy the food
he throws at you, and THEN shoot him. Keep this process up until Peeves
runs out of energy.
When Peeves throws back Ron's gift, Harry will hear the Basilisk's
voice. He will run out and Ron and Hermione will run after him. The
storybook is going to show up again.
Ron will say he thinks Malfoy is the heir of Slytherin. Hermione will
announce that with a Polyjuice Potion, they could make Malfoy confess.
She tells you the ingredients for the potion. Ron will tell you to get
the shredded boomslang skin, leeches (ugh...) and some flies. The rest of
the ingredients are then up for Ron and Hermione to find.
Hagrid is now going to ask you to de-gnome his pumpkin patch for him. In
return, he will give some boomslang skin. You accept.
This is exactly the same process you followed when you de-gnomed Mrs.
Weasley's garden. Gather speed by pressing the Square Button rapidly
according to how far you wand to throw. Press the Triangle Button when
the arrow below you points to where you want to throw the gnome. Try
again to get a Wizard's Card, and Hagrid will award you with boomslang
Now it's time for your Quidditch Match against Slytherin House. Malfoy
is the new seeker as you already found out. You will start off being
chased by the Rogue Bludger and Malfoy is going to tease you about it.
The Snitch will pop-up and head for below the stands. Malfoy will dive
to it and you have to follow.
Malfoy is going to be chasing the snitch below the stands. Chase after
him. Keep the X Button held! If you slow down the Bludger is going to
hit you. Steer well and dodge the obstacles in your way, mainly the wood
poles holding the stands.
When you pass Malfoy, he will start chasing YOU. Now the Golden Snitch
will give off speed rings. Go through as many as you can to keep ahead
of Malfoy. When you get close enough to the snitch, the hand with the
Quidditch glove will appear on the screen. As in your practice, steer it
over the snitch and press the X Button to catch it. The Bludger will now
hit your arm and the storybook will appear again.
To get the leeches and the flies for Hermione's Polyjuice Potion, Hagrid
will go with you to Diagon Alley. The first shop you visit, the
Apothecary, will have Malfoy waiting at the door. He is going to tease
you about your earmuffs, and you're going to diss him by saying he's as
funny as Filch. Malfoy will say he left a surprise for you at the shop.
You're going to find out Malfoy's surprise was that he left a bunch of
pixies at the shop. You will come to view mode. The pixies are going to
fly up and down the counter, and you have to Flipendo each of them
before time runs out. If you can manage to rid the shop of the little
things, the shop owner will let you have the leeches for free.
Now you should go to the next open shop. The owner in there will
transform the shop into Christmas style at your request. Then he will
ask you to get the flies for yourself by casting Flipendo on the boxes
behind him and on the next floor until you have all the flies you need.
Walk to the boxes behind him. Briefly stop near each of the boxes. One
of the boxes will have a buzzing sound on it and shake slightly.
Flipendo that box and the flies will fly out. Flipendo the flies and one
of them will fall to the floor. Collect it. Now go to the floor above,
up the stairs to the right of the shop. Find the next shaking and
buzzing box and repeat the process. Keep it up until you get all the
flies you need before time runs out.
Now you are going to meet Hagrid again. He will bring you back to
Hermione will meet you and Ron at the girl's bathroom. There, she will
tell you that you need a hairpiece of Crabbe and Goyle to transform into
them. When you are about to leave, Moaning Myrtle is going to pop-up and
yell at you because you are in a girl's bathroom. After she screams at
you to get out, you're going to leave.
Ron is going to tell you Crabbe and Goyle went down to the Great Hall
along with Malfoy for the Dueling Club. Follow Ron down there. Remember
to check for any secret passages you haven't gone to yet.
When you get to the door of the Great Hall, some students are going to
tell you Malfoy is challenging everybody for a dueling match. You should
go in the Great Hall and accept the challenge.
When you get there, Malfoy will talk to you and tell you the candles are
sparkling. They have the special jinxes when they fall down. Now, you
have to duel Malfoy.
Move around as much as you can, casting your Flipendo spells at him.
Remember to make Malfoy Flipendo a candle when they glide down, then
carefully collect the special jinx to throw at him. Once you defeat the
rotten little Slytherin, he will do the Serpensortia Spell and make a
huge snake appear.
Battle the snake! Move around quickly again to avoid its poison attacks,
which may be a little difficult as it always seems to fall where you are
about to walk on. After it spits its poison, cast Flipendo (a charged
one is always better) at it. Repeat the process until the snake is
Now everyone is going to find out you are a Parselmouth.
You and Ron are going to give Hermione the ingredients you got, and she
will dump hers on the cauldron. You will then add the hairs and drink
the potion. You will transform into Goyle and Ron will become Crabbe.
Hermione will tell you to go to the Slytherin Common Room by yourself,
because she had a slight problem.
Now you have to find the entrance to the Slytherin common room. You and
Ron (or Crabbe and Goyle) will talk in a very slow, dumb voice now...it
would be better to press the Square Button to skip it if you're as
impatient as I got hearing them talking like that! A Slytherin boy is
going to run by. You are going to have to follow him around the dungeon
corridors to find his common room. Ron will try to follow you at first
but he will fall down. :D
You are going to walk slower than usual because Goyle is huger than
Harry. Try not to fall down on the narrow paths you are going to
encounter, and just like you did when you followed Ron to Hagrid's Hut,
don't let the boy out of your sight. When you get to the common room,
you're going to find out Malfoy didn't open the Chamber of Secrets.
You're going to enter the girl's bathroom to talk to Hermione. But
Myrtle is going to get totally furious to have more boys entering her
washroom, and will scream at you. "GET OUT! THIS IS A GIRL'S BATHROOM!"
Then she's going to start throwing toilet paper and other bathroom
things at your head. After Ron announces she's gone "mental" on his dumb
Crabbe voice, start to cast Flipendo on the things Myrtle throws at you.
You don't exactly need to Flipendo her, just keep blowing up the things
she throws until time runs out. When it does, you and Ron are going to
transform back into yourselves and Myrtle is going to stop when she
recognizes you. Now you're going to find Tom Riddle's Diary.
Lockhart is going to send you a letter saying he's very displeased you
missed his second class, and that he wants you to go to his office for a
special lesson. Ron goes to check up on Hermione while you have to get
to Lockhart's.
Go down the same way you went when Nick was going to his party. If you
remember well, Ron told you at the very beginning where Lockhart's
office was, and that he is surprised he can get his huge head through
the door.
When you get to Lockhart's office, he will be waiting for you to teach
you the Verdimillious Duo spell.
Again hit the correct symbols as soon as his wand hits it to get another
"A" grade. There is no "get there on time race" anymore. After you learn
Verdimillious Duo, follow Lockhart to the next room, where you will have
to cast Verdimillious to reveal the floating pads you have to jump onto
to leave the room. He'll award you points.
Professor McGonagall will announce to you and Ron Hermione has been
petrified also. (Aw...) Now that you think Hagrid opened the Chamber last
time, you have to sneak out of the castle and get to his hut. Doing this
might get very annoying, so be patient.
You and Ron are going to split up. First you'll encounter Filch. Pick up
the Invisibility tokens you see around, and when they run out, make sure
you climb up somewhere or hide behind something to avoid getting caught.
The next area will have Snape in it. There will be a big tree in the
middle of this area. Pick up a token and climb up the stone pads, and
then jump onto each of them until you reach their end. When you get
there, jump onto the small place that will be across from you. Once
there, cast Wingardium Leviosa on a vase and drop it on the pad to
unlock the door.
Now, come back until you get to the pad near the tree. Then, jump onto
the tree. Don't mind if Snape asks "Who's there?" That doesn't mean
you're caught, he just heard a sound. Once on top of the tree, jump to
the unlocked door and go through.
Professor McGonagall is here now. There will be a big bush in the center
of the place, which she will keep walking around. Always stay on the
other side of the bush away from her, and then pick up the invisibility
token. Get through the exit by unlocking it the same way you did with
Snape's area.
Now, Filch and Snape are together. You will first see Snape walking past
a little stone roof. Keep a good distance behind him, wait for him to
turn right, then run up to a tall bush across from you and climb it. Now
it is a good idea to switch to view mode. Keep a sharp lookout at Snape
and Filch. Wait until Snape goes back through the first place he walked
past at first and disappear. After that, Filch will go through a pathway
at the end of the area. Jump down and run to your left. You will find a
pad there. Cast the Levitation Spell again at a vase and press the pad
down by dropping it on it to unlock the exit. Come back up the bush.
When they are both out of sight, jump down and quickly grab an
invisibility token hidden in a little circle near where Filch was. Now
follow the path Filch went through. Run past him. Get out through the
Now, you have to slowly walk near the leafy wall to your left.
McGonagall will be in a wider area right in front of you, and you don't
want to let her see you. Switch to view mode and look at her. Wait until
she walks to your left and turn her back to you. Then, run straight
ahead. You will find Snape next on another wide area. There will be
another large bush to your right. When Snape isn't looking at you, run
near the bush and quickly climb up. Now, here is the tricky part.
The pad that unlocks the exit to this place is different from all
others. When you step on it, a timer will start. The exit, located down
a pathway near Snape, will open. You have to run down that pathway and
get out before the timer runs out. But you have to get the timing right.
Here is how I did it. I waited until up the bush until Snape got near
it. When he did and turned his back to me, I ran quickly to the pad and
pressed it. The timer started. Then I rapidly dashed out and through the
pathway to the exit, when Snape was with his back to me.
Finally, you get to Hagrid's Hut. You'll meet Ron in there. You're going
to here Cornelius Fudge explaining to Dumbledore he has to take Hagrid
down to Azkaban. Then Hagrid will say that if anyone wanted to find
anything out, all they'd have to do would be to follow the spiders.
The small black little spiders will point you the way. Follow them all
the way. Sometimes you will come upon areas that have two exits.
Remember that the one the spiders go through are the right ones.
However, on the other exits, you might find special pickups, so it is
good to check both out.
You will have to fight some very large spiders as well. Lock your target
on them with the R1 Button. When they rise up on their hind legs to spit
venom at you, cast a charged Flipendo at their mouth, dodging the
poison. Two of these might destroy them.
You will also encounter some trolls walking around. Always remember to
walk down when they have their back to you or aren't looking right at
you. Otherwise, they are going to grunt and moan and you're going to
reappear where you were before. Keep an eye on the little spiders to
find the right way, then wait until the coast is clear and follow it.
Repeat this same process every time you see a bunch of trolls.
Soon you're going to end up on Aragog's Lair. The gigantic Acromantula
is gonna explain to you that Hagrid never opened the Chamber of Secrets
and that he is innocent, and also that the muggle-born who was killed
last time was found in a bathroom! (Ah-ha!) He will then tell you the
real killer beast is one that spiders fear the most, and dare not to say
its name. When Harry says nervously he's gonna go, Aragog won't let you.
He will send his children to attack you. They are the same spiders you
were fighting with before you got there. Use your target lock on the
spiders. Every time you kill a group of spiders, Aragog is going to jump
out of his little, (I mean, HUGE) spider web and try to attack you. When
he is about to do this, keep circling around his web and you will dodge
him. When he misses you, cast a charged Flipendo on the four little
pieces of wood hanging his web together. Repeat this process until you
crush all of the pieces of wood.
Now, Aragog will fall down and go through a hole on the ground. Fall
along with him and go through the hole as well. The storybook is going
to come up.
After you talk to Ron about what you discovered, you're going to go find
Lockhart since he is the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Ron
thinks the idea is stupid.
When you get to Lockhart's office, you will find out the door is locked.
Go on the door behind you.
You're going to come up against a huge floor full of some small tornados
that will take your energy away. You have to know the right squares to
walk on and when to do so. Here is the solution I found for the first
1.) A space to your left will be free, and after that, a space to
your right. Enter the space to your right.
2.) Turn left when free.
3.) Walk one straight.
4.) Turn right.
5.) Straight again.
6.) Turn Left.
7.) Follow the last free square out the door.
And here is the solution to the second room:
1.) Enter the space to your right again when it is free. Don't stay
on the first square! Walk two squares ahead, then stay.
2.) Turn left.
3.) Straight ahead.
4.) Right.
5.) Straight ahead.
6.) Now, two squares to your right will be freed. Run quickly on them
both and then you can be on your way out the door.
On this next room, cast Verdimillious. Jump onto the pads that are going
to appear and then follow into the door across from you. Once there,
pull the lever and unlock the back door to Lockhart's office.
Come down again and turn left. Enter the door.
Now there are two doors. The one in front of you will lead you to
Lockhart's office. You may go to the one on your right. It is a secret
passage, which will lead you to an award.
Once in Lockhart's office, Lockhart will try to get rid of you by saying
he's quite busy. You're going to tell him you think you know the
entrance to the chamber of secrets. He will be very nervous and agree to
go with you.
Moaning Myrtle will reveal to you how she died. She was the girl who was
killed by the Basilisk last time the chamber was opened. You will
discover the entrance to the chamber is through a sink on the bathroom.
You will say "open" in Parseltongue and you will all enter the chamber.
Once down there, Lockhart will be all happy and Ron will think he's
nuts. (Surprise...) Lockhart will then say his plan is to use his memory
charm on you and Ron and then say it was too late to save Ginny from the
chamber. Now you're gonna have to duel Gilderoy.
Duel him the same way as you dueled everyone else. Watch out for his
special attack, the "Obliviate" Memory Charm. When you beat Lockhart,
he's going to get hit by his own charm and lose his memory. A lot of
rocks will tumble down and you will tell Ron to try and shift them away
while you enter the chamber alone. Go ahead, then! >:)
I think this part was VERY annoying! You have to go into three doors and
get to the end of it, where you will find a pad you can press down to
rise up blocks you can jump onto to get to the last room of the chamber.
All doors will have practically the same obstacles. Here they are and
how to get past each of them:
1.) Slugs - Cast Incendio on their slimy bodies do destroy them.
2.) Black Walking Armor - Lock your target on it with R1. Wait until
he swings his ax on you. Dodge it. Then he'll do a movement like
he's going to hug you, and that's when you should cast a charged
Flipendo. Two times and he's history!
3.) White Walking Armor - Lock your target on him and walk in
circles, keeping yourself close to him. Cast a charged Flipendo
when his shield is not on his face. Two times and you will kill
4.) Blocked Holes - These are like small sewer entrances you can find
on the floor. Levitate whatever heavy object is near it, then
drop it on it to break it open. Fall down on it.
5.) Obscured Exits - Just cast Verdimillious when you see the red
sparkle on a foggy wall to reveal an exit.
6.) Trolls - Just like in the Dark Forest. Move away from them when
they are not looking.
When you get past all three doors, just jump on the blocks and open the
door to The Chamber of Secrets.
Inside you're going to find Tom Riddle and Ginny, lying on the floor
unconscious. Riddle will explain to you that he is Voldemort. Then, he
is going to conjure he Basilisk to kill you.
Fawkes, Dumbledore's phoenix, will blind the gigantic snake so that it
won't kill you to look at it. The Basilisk is quite an easy opponent if
you pay attention.
It will start off spitting venom at you, which you have to dodge
quickly. After it spits, it is going to open its mouth really wide, and
as you might have already guessed, you must cast a Charged Flipendo on
his mouth. Repeat this process until the snake runs out of energy.
You still haven't killed it yet! Now Fawkes will drop the Sorting Hat
near you and you have Godric Gryffindor's sword. The Basilisk is going
to suck a lot of air into its mouth, which will push you towards him.
Keep the X Button held to fight back the air. Then the snake will shoot
two green power rays from its huge fangs. If you still have the X Button
pressed, you will deflect the rays. When you do that, use your
directional buttons to guide the ray on the Basilisk. Do this until its
energy ends once again, then the snake will fall down.
Harry is going to take its fang and smash it into the diary. All the ink
will come out and Tom Riddle (Voldemort) will disappear. You're going to
pass out. (Yes, again...just like last year when you defeated Voldemort...)
If you got enough points for Gryffindor during your adventure, then
Dumbledore's voice will announce Gryffindor winning the House Cup. Now,
you are going to appear back in your common room. You can use Colin's
Photo Album to go back to past levels and collect cards you haven't
gotten yet or just to have fun. Try to defeat the House Duelist
Champions! Here are a few personal tips.
I hope these tips help you on difficult parts of the game.
1.) When you are following Ron to Hagrid's Hut, you should notice it
is divided into three parts. On the beginning of the third part,
when you have to run up the small little hill, run on the very
right corner to avoid being slowed down by the slug slime.
2.) When Dueling, not only move left to right, but also front to
back. Varying your moves can help to dodge your opponent's shots.
3.) When fighting the pixies at Defense Against the Dark Arts, when
you get to the slippery corridor, keep the down directional
button pressed while steering Harry. That will help you to
collect more beans.
4.) When in Quidditch Training, instead of keeping your eyes on the
rings so much, you should keep your sight locked on the snitch,
so that you are aware of where the next ring will pop up.
5.) When doing something in View Mode, such as getting Peeves or the
Pixies, keep the red aiming circle about three centimeters or so
over the counter they are hiding behind. That way you have more
time to shoot and still get them.
6.) When you are battling the Pixies and the spiders at the Dark
Forest, keep away from them! Since you have your target locked on
them, it doesn't matter where you are. Cast your magic from far
away to avoid being hit.

25 M Slave looking for Mistress
247Slaveboy247 (25)
I'm looking for a mistress who will be patient but firm. I want you to push my limits and help me try new things. As a beginner, I'm looking for someone to take control but also someone who will keep in mind that I'm inexperienced and not try to go too far too fast. That said, lots of experience on your part is not a requirement. I would be equally happy with an experienced mistress or a fellow beginner.
I'm looking for primarily an online mistress for now. I want to find a mistress who will control/train me through daily/weekly tasks and punishments and regular chat sessions. I have posted my likes, dislikes, and limits below to give you an idea of what I'm interested in but I'm open to other experiences and suggestions. If you see things in my dislikes or limits and you'd like to know if they are negotiable, feel free to ask and I'll be happy to discuss it. That doesn't mean I'll necessarily change them but I'm always willing to talk about it. As far as how you train me and what you train me to be, I'm open to discussing what you have in mind. I have always found things like feminization and petplay to be interesting, however, I'm willing to discuss other options if there's something else you're interested in.
At least initially, I do not want to send pictures or videos. I would like to get to know you first and build some trust before I'm willing to send anything like that. However, if you would like to send pictures I will not object. (That said, I do not expect you to send pictures either initially. I believe it is equally important for you to build trust in me as it is for me to build trust in you.) This does lead to some complications in verifying that I have performed my required tasks/punishments. I am willing to create write ups, blog posts, messages, or anything you see fit to verify that I have completed what you've asked of me, but initially some trust will be involved.
I know I've talked a lot about the kind of mistress I'm looking for so I think it's important that I tell you what kind of slave I hope to be. As your slave I promise to be honest and up front with you in all aspects of our relationship. I will be obedient, timely, and loyal and I will do my best to complete any and all tasks to the absolute best of my ability. I know I'm asking a lot of you and I will do my best to ensure that you get just as much out of this relationship as I do.
If you're interested in potentially taking me on as a slave please feel free to message me via Kik. Thanks for reading, I look forward to hearing from you.
Likes: Orgasm Control, Anal, Petplay, Feminization
Dislikes: Pain, CBT
(Feel free to ask me if anything is not listed here.)

This sushi place has a long history since it's opening in 1907. What is so unique about their sushi is that rice used is hot when shaped and warm when it arrives. This keeps the rice soft and light and crumbles in your mouth as you eat it. Also, you will notice a bowl of soy sauce with a brush on the table. The communal bowl is shared by its patrons. And with each brush of soy onto the fish, the oil and flavor from the fish goes back into the soy. With time, the soy sauce develops its own flavor. This can be seen by the layer of sheen on the sauce. Also brushing the soy onto the fish is the correct way to eat sushi. Never dip the rice into the soy sauce, as it will cause the rice to break and will be too salty to eat.
You can order any type of fish you want, but I would recommend that you order the chef's selection (Omakaze). For 1000 yen, you will get 5 pieces of nigiri, but one out of the five will be an Otoro piece!!! After 5 plates, you would've sampled all of the fish of the day. Most people usually stop after 3 plates (including me). But Jared made it all the way to 5. If there is a particular piece you liked during your sampling, you can order that. I would recommend just getting the Otoro, it is out of this world. We never had Otoro this fresh and this good. The tuna literally melts in your mouth and you can really taste the fattiness of the fish. Every time he describes this meal, Jared always says that Endo has ruined any future sushi eating experiences for him back home. Nothing in Chicago could possibly compare to quality in Japan. This meal was utterly defining. And yes, we dream about this Otoro, too.
Along with their sushi, they also offer a bowl of clam miso soup. The soup has a nice sweet taste and very flavorful as it is packed with small clams.
1. take a train to Tamagawa station (s12 on the Sennichimae line)
2. take exit 3 or exit 6 from the station
3. walk straight down the road until you see a large market/warehouse on your right. there will also be a carpark. If you cross over the river, you have gone too far.
4. the shop is at the end of the carpark to the left of the market itself. You will see a blue banner with Endo written in Japanese.
They are open from Mon-Sat 5am to 2pm, and closed on Sundays and Holidays

Holistic Evaluation Reveals Child's True Progress
by Scott Woodruff • May 1, 2018
In Virginia, students schooling under the home instruction option not only have to be evaluated every year, but risk being put on probation if they do not show what the law calls "adequate educational growth and progress."
Fortunately, the law also establishes several different options for evaluation. And Home School Legal Defense Association can help families choose the best option for assessing their children.
Recently a homeschool mom in Virginia Beach submitted a year-end composite test score that fell below the "passing" level established under state law, which is the 4th stanine. (Scores that do not reach this benchmark are considered below average.) A school representative placed the child on probation, and the mom sought HSLDA's assistance.
A Better Option
After analyzing the situation, I realized the mom could use a different assessment method to show her child was indeed learning and growing educationally. Because this diligent mom had actually turned in the test score ahead of the deadline, she had time, if she acted quickly, to obtain an evaluation letter.
The mom arranged for a seasoned education professional to evaluate the child's progress during the year. With my guidance, the evaluator wrote a letter stating that the child had made an adequate level of educational growth and progress. Before the August 1 deadline, I sent a letter to the school official attaching the evaluation letter and explaining its legal status.
The official responded and acknowledged that the child would not be on probation.
If parents believe a standardized test might not show their child at their best but want to try it anyway, it's important to administer the test well in advance of the August 1 deadline so sufficient time still remains to obtain an evaluation letter. In most cases, if a child's composite score is below the 4th stanine, obtaining an evaluation letter might provide a more robust portrait of the child's actual academic progress.
For more information about Virginia's year-end evaluation requirements, view our homeschool law summary here.

The two things that you can use to remove build up from your hair are :
Baking soda and Apple cider vinegar.
I think the best way to use them it would be like I have described it in "the no poo method" post.
I don't recommend using only baking soda if your hair is dry. BS is slightly alkaline and it will open up your cuticle. In this way it will make your hair a mess and even drier.
As for the ACV you can use it in two other ways.
- Fill with lukewarm water a water bottle,add 4 tablespoons of acv and use it after shampoo.Just like you would do with a conditioner.
- Fill the sink with lukewarm water(make sure the sink is very clean,without any soap residue) and add 3/4 cup acv. Soak your hair for 4-5 min, then squeeze and rinse. This is what I did about 3 hours ago and my hair feels so soft now. It doesn't smell at all even if it's still damp. I didn't shampoo previously, but I'm washing it after a few hours. When to use it,before or after shampoo, is your choice. Try and see what works best for you. Acv will also help with removing mineral build up in your hair.
And this is it.So easy!!!
I hope I haven't forgotten anything. If you have any questions ask me in the comments :)

Water jet cutting is becoming most likely the most preferred precision cutting methods. More companies – from machine shops and designers to model shops and producers – round the U. s. are employing we've got the technology to slice metal correct into a finished part. To properly program and manage a water jet table requires a lot of training, like various computerized CAD systems. Nonetheless, there's expanding interest out there for various reasons, the extremely initial becoming industrial.
The simple water jet cutting procedure is a lot like machine-operated erosion, going for a little stream and pushing it by way of a small (no greater than.010 inches) nozzle at a higher pressure (900-plus miles per hour). First commercial programs go as far back towards the seventies when water flying was utilized initially to chop corrugated cardboard. Now, tables reduce cardboard, plastic, foam, sealants along with other soft materials.
Abrasive cutting or abrasive jets grew to turn out to be typical inside the eighties. Abrasive jets mix water along with a coarse substance, like garnet, and want three much more components – a garnet hopper, metering tool and mixing chamber – to chop via hard supplies, like copper, brass, aluminum, steel, glass, ceramic, quartz movement or stone. Products created from these materials include gears together with other parts, in addition to pieces for artists.
A couple of-of the other benefits of water jet cutting consist of:
No warmth-affected zones (HAZ) are created. Traditional machinery requires plenty of warmth. This heat can transfer to the fabric and trigger HAZs, which result in the item's all-natural structure and intrinsic qualities being changed, warped or melted. Water jet cutting doesn't change any conditions when creating the ultimate product.
The cutting jet by no means will get dull, and it isn't capable of getting too hot. An additional essential safety feature is most tables will instantly drop water pressure to safe levels to prevent injuries or injury towards the operator. Also, no dangerous dust or contaminants are released all through the process.
Jet cutting is considered the most useful of precision cutting tools. Tables could be automated, and components are produced quickly. Traditional machining demands detailed prints and also the skilled hands from the machinist, while all a waterjet needs may be the dimensions blocked in.
There is practically no waste because the water stream's kerf width is minuscule , precise.
With this specific procedure, a particular item is what you'll get. Finish grinding and sanding are removed, as you will find no burs or rough edges.
Water jet tables may also compliment router, laser and milling machines. Jet cutting provides possibilities for high abundance and profits by working quickly and wasting small.

Prince William and Princess Catherine take the capital by storm for Canada Day, with four public events in the capital between June 30 and July 2. In our quest for the inside scoop, here's who we'd love to get together with for a debrief in the wake of their visit
Elaine Lui
The etalk regular is a gossip maven, a follower of fashion, and a fanatical royal watcher. She flew to London for the wedding. We'd love to deconstruct the Princess's frocks over hors d'oeuvres.
Matthew Rowe
The spokesman for the Ottawa chapter of the Monarchist League of Canada will be invaluable when our merry band begins dissecting which events (and guests) made the cut on this tour.
The Security
The RCMP tries to match the personalities of its security detail to their charges. Dinner with the couple's minder should provide some insight into the real William and Catherine.
Sharon Johnson
The GG's wife should make an instant connection given her love of all things horsey. Will she throw caution to the wind and tell us what it's like to meet the Royal family's biggest stars?
Alison Eastwood
The Hello! editor relies on royalty for newsstand supremacy. We want the scoop on the behind-the-scenes scramble as the mag pulls out all the stops to cash in on Will and Kate mania.
David McCaffrey
The luxe McCaffrey gowns are named after the women who inspired them. After observing the Princess, we want the designs for the cocktail dress David would envision for her.

*wipes dust off this online journal*
i forgot how this page used to be my whole life and how i vow to update them religiously but look at how "dusty" it has gotten ): well, no thanks to instagram and shiz. i've also stopped checking my friends' site until recently i read see hui's post on my wedding. 10 months too late but thank you girlfriend.
speaking of wedding, marriage life been great. we recently got out of a quarrel and having a fight before and after marriage feels SO DIFFERENT man. we used to go on for a week giving each other the cold treatment before marriage but when you are living in the same roof, it is so hard not to give a hoot about hfz. i was constantly worrying he would faint inside his locked
cave room ok. and when you finally made up, you just find yourself loving your s/o even more?! hfz better tell me he feels that way too!
i recently read bubz's final chapter of her book on her marriage life and it got me in tears. here's a snippet from the book.
"it takes no effort to fall in love, but it takes hard work to stay in love. let our story be a reminder that relationships aren't meant to be rainbows and butterflies all the way. relationships can be incredibly painful and hard. love isn't a feeling but rather a choice. you choose to stay in love despite your loved one's short comings and all your differences. a great love isn't about having a pain-free "perfect" fairy tale relationship; it is about being able to overcome hardship together. "
here's to all the marriages and relationships in the world; may we overcome all obstacles life throws us!

How can we take advantage of what Theory of Constraints teaches as well as bring in thinking from other disciplines to learn? Specifically, how do we learn from a single occurrence - an occurrence of something going awry? This was the question that Eli Schragenheim tried to answer in his talk this morning on "Learning from ONE event: A structured organizational learning process to inquire and learn the right lessons from a single event."
But before we get to the serious stuff, Schragenheim reminded us of a key line from The Producers (toward the end):
How could this happen? I was so careful. I picked the wrong play, the wrong director, the wrong cast. Where did I go right?
Wasn't he surprised?
Learning is about updating our understanding and knowledge. It's about updating the beliefs we have in causal connections. And in this case, it is about generalizing from a specific case to improve how we (the organization) do things in the future. It is not simply, "don't do THAT again."
My biggest take away from this talk was that Schragenheim has encapsulated a lot of what I have seen in the knowledge management community (and the education community) around learning from our experiences. Of course, ongoing learning is a key part of the continuous improvement world as well. The short form is: plan an activity; take the action; check if the action created the desired results; if not, correct and try again.
Schragenheim wasn't so much focused on the iterative loop aspect as the aspect of learning after being surprised by the outcome of some activity. Surprise was a key aspect of this discussion: if you don't articulate what you expect to happen, it is difficult to know what a surprising result would be. Or if you are surprised, it might be harder to articulate what the surprise is. Once surprised, go through a process of discovery. What is the gap between what was expected and what happened? What is the nature of the gap? Was it a failure in execution (of a project/event) or a failure in performance (of the product)?
Once the gap is articulated, the next step is to generate some hypotheses as to why it happened. Were the expectations flawed? Was the execution flawed? Or, rarely, was there a statistical fluke? These hypotheses are the starting point for the investigation that the team conducts. Check the logic of the hypotheses - a familiar activity for the TOC community - do the hypotheses describe a likely scenario? Do they need more detail behind them to understand proposed cause and effect? The hypotheses also help the team focus on where to look for evidence and information. This is as opposed to a fishing expedition, collecting every possible piece of data. There may be some iterations of asking "how come" or "why" to get at the hypothesis and information which explain what happened.
But the next step is to identify the underlying causal relationships - the (small p) paradigm - that created the situation. And then take that understanding of what happened and propose the smallest possible change to prevent the same thing from happening again. Note this is unlikely to be a sweeping (large P) Paradigm shift. It's a small tweak in the way we do things. It's also not an opposite action from the way things happen now. Of course, along with the proposed change, the team should check that it won't create negative branches. AND they should work out the procedures for implementing the proposed change.
Not only should the team look at the specifics of preventing a repeat of the situation, but they should also ask the larger question about the organization: where else might the old paradigm be at play in the organization? How can we make this change more general to help the organization as a whole?
For people who pay attention to organizational learning, I don't know that there is anything surprising here. The addition from TOC is the specific reference to cause and effect logic, and somewhat the idea of allowing yourself to be surprised. But I hear that in other disciplines as well. I liked how Schragenheim put this together, though.

We head to the Phoenix area to get the scoop on two very interesting brothers from England who are here for just one thing–muscle cars!
We first met Chris and Nick Hall at the Goodguys event in Scottsdale last fall. We were impressed with their pristine cars–a 1968 Firebird which belongs to Chris Hall, and a 1970 Nova that belongs to Nick Hall. They were eagerly pounding their machines through the autocross rather than posing in the car show, but that was only the beginning of the story. Both Nick and Chris emigrated to the United States to be closer to a good supply of American muscle cars and their parts. The love affair with Yank iron began in England when their family started buying and enjoying American cars–starting with a lowly Pinto, and progressing up through the ranks. The entire family would take vacations in the U.S.–not going to tourist attractions like Disney or Yellowstone–but to cars shows and swap meets.
Then last week we headed out to Phoenix where Nick and Chris now live, and we shot both cars for a feature. We'll have them in PHR in a few months, but in the meantime, check out the video of the shoot here!

Gypsum plaster is one of the most widely used building material. It is also referred to as the plaster of Paris. It basically includes features that are quite like cement or mortar. A mineral, Gypsum, is heated to 300 degrees Fahrenheit and it's then mixed with water. This process produces a soft and pliable paste that hardens as it cools. As this construction material is soft and easy to manipulate, it is widely used for aesthetic purposes. The use of the construction material could be traced back to centuries. Owing to the ingrained attributes, plaster of Paris is used as a building material as it proves to be fire-resistant. Aside from this feature, this plastering material has a broad range of uses and applications. Among the most common materials used to create figurines and sculptures is gypsum plaster. As the material may be used in sculptures and statues, it was popularly used since the period of renaissance. It can be used over a metal frame in sculptures and figurines.
As the material can be used in sculptures and statues, it was used since the period of renaissance. It may be used over a metal frame in sculptures and figurines. It is widely used as orthopaedic functions as it can help to cure, support and protect broken bones. It is also used in various other areas of medicine like dentistry. It's used to make models of dentures for dental work that was innovative. Gypsum products are used for various other functions too. It is used in areas as it helps to loosen the clayey soil. It can help to condition the soil, and it's used as an agricultural fertilizer. Additionally, it enhances the development of crops in the fields. It is used in other fields as it can be added to cement to reduce its setting speed. Engineers prefer to use it as a binding product during construction. Food grade gypsum is used to bind food products such as tofu. Another form of this plaster is the blackboard chalk which finds wide applications. Click on the below mentioned website, if you are seeking for additional information regarding venetian plaster application.
Drywall or Sheetrock contains this material, and it's offered in a massive range of thicknesses and sizes. It's also ideal as a building material as it helps to resist moulds, fungi and moisture. It is used to install tiles and floor materials as it has the power to bind surfaces. It is essential to use these materials with care and caution as it could pose a serious health risk if it is used inappropriately. The response between water and plaster can release a large quantity of heat which can prove to be dangerous. Therefore improper usage can cause severe burns. Gypsum plaster can be bought through online stores as various reputed dealers offer products at attractive price prices. It is available in different forms including powder, so forth and sheets. There are products that are manufactured for decorative industries too.

Elegant. Innovative. Iconic. Celebrated.
Heritage 1970
The North American Watch Corporation (NAWC), headed by Gedalio Grinberg, acquired the Concord Watch Company in 1970. Born in Cuba in 1931, Grinberg, an entrepreneurial college-educated watch salesman from Havana, fled Castro's revolution in 1960, moving to the US with his young family. In 1965, he founded NAWC as an exclusive distributorship for luxury Swiss watches. In 1993, NAWC went public, and in 1996 changed its name to Movado Group, Inc. "Gerry" Grinberg was a watch industry visionary who early in his career recognized the potential cachet of luxury watches, and marketed them accordingly.

Despite big lead, Trump lowers expectations in New Hampshire
The Buzz with Buzz: what happened in Iowa doesn't stay in Iowa
Donald Trump shrugged off a second place finish in Iowa, suggesting Tuesday that New Hampshire – which holds the nation's first primary on Feb. 9 – "fits me better."
Trump's rivals had sensed weakness in the brash billionaire who promises voters endless wins, but Trump exuded calm confidence Tuesday night at a press conference ahead of a rally here, insisting he hadn't invested "tremendous" time or money in Iowa.
"We had 17 candidates," he said, adding at one point: "I've been in politics for all of six months."
Still, Trump sought to lower expectations for a first-place finish in New Hampshire, even as he pledged to add more retail events in the state. He said he'd "love to finish first," but it wouldn't be "horrible" if he didn't.
"I'm not humiliated," Trump later told the crowd jammed into a cavernous athletic club, some watching from an overflow room. He called the press the "worst people ever" for suggesting that Marco Rubio – who finished third – had a better night than him.
Trump, Rubio, the rest of the Republican field and the Democratic presidential contenders arrived in New Hampshire – which votes in less than a week – hours after voters in Iowa left their precinct caucuses.
Trump picked up the endorsement Tuesday of former Sen. Scott Brown of Massachusetts, who lost a New Hampshire Senate campaign in 2014. Brown, who introduced Trump at the rally, said he believe only Trump could be a "change agent" to get Washington working.
Ted Cruz pulled out a narrow win in Iowa over Trump, with Rubio delivering a strong third-place finish. Rubio also picked up a coveted endorsement Tuesday. Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina said Republicans "have one shot in 2016 to beat Hillary Clinton and that shot is Marco Rubio."
The Florida senator's solid showing increases pressure on other establishment Republicans to deliver victories here or be forced to rally around Rubio's candidacy in an effort to thwart Cruz and Trump – who have earned the enmity of party stalwarts.
A New Hampshire win by Trump, who is leading here, or Cruz, who is further back and not considered a natural fit for the state but could pick up steam with his Iowa surprise, could propel them to victories in South Carolina, Nevada and much of the South.
Cruz, who picked up the endorsement of Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-SC, held a town hall meeting at a church before departing for a rally in South Carolina. But he plans to return to New Hampshire on Wednesday and spend the week up to the primary here.
And New Hampshire will be a two-person tussle after Democrat Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders finished in a virtual tie in Iowa. New Hampshire delivered a lifeline to Clinton in 2008 after her third place finish in Iowa, but polls this time show her trailing Sanders, the senator from neighboring Vermont.
The final Iowa results show Clinton received 49.8 percent of the vote and Sanders received 49.6 percent. The contest could now stretch easily into March with Clinton forced to fight for a nomination many had long assumed was hers for the taking.
Clinton claimed the mantle of victor, taking to the stage at Nashua Community College to say she was "thrilled to be coming to New Hampshire after winning Iowa."
Noting that she's now won and lost in Iowa, she added, "it's a lot better to win."
Sanders, who galvanized a group of Democrats including many younger, first-time voters, held a get out the vote rally at a theater near Keene State College.
He said he considers Iowa a victory, regardless of the margin.
"We started that campaign 40, 50 points behind," he told CNN as he landed in New Hampshire. "Whether we lose by a fraction of a point or we win or whatever, we are very proud of the campaign that we won."
He called the showing proof that he can compete against Clinton: "We're going to fight really hard in New Hampshire," he said. "Then we're going to Nevada, then we're going to South Carolina. We look forward to doing well around the country."
Trump and Sanders enjoy healthy leads over their rivals in New Hampshire, though a recent WMUR/CNN New Hampshire primary poll contained some cautionary notes.
On the Republican side, Trump was the candidate New Hampshire Republicans said they were least likely to vote for and just 39 percent of Republican primary voters said they'd firmly decided how they'll vote.
The Republican poll by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center had Trump with 30 percent, ahead of Cruz at 12 percent, followed by Rubio at 11 percent.
John Kasich, Chris Christie and Jeb Bush, the trio of governors who mostly bypassed Iowa to campaign relentlessly in New Hampshire, registered in the single digits. All three, who are running in the establishment lane, along with Rubio, left Iowa to campaign here Monday.
At his first event of the day at Franklin Pierce University, Bush sought to contrast his record as a two-term Florida governor with what he said were two freshman senators who haven't made tough calls and aren't ready to lead our nation.
Christie had already nabbed the coveted endorsement of the conservative New Hampshire Union Leader, a decision that sparked a feud between its publisher and Trump. A front-page editorial labeled Trump a "crude blowhard with no clear political philosophy" whose campaign insults New Hampshire voters' intelligence.
On the Democratic side, Sanders led Clinton, 57-34 percent. More than 40 percent of Democrats said they had not definitely decided who they'll support. They will debate Thursday evening, a late addition to the debate schedule.
The Republicans will debate for the eighth time Saturday.

Maserati: Sticky Slick Chick
A bare background, a chair, a bottle of oil, a few bikinis and Maserati. All you need. Models really pop against a seamless background, allowing you to inspect their bods without distractions, and when Maserati oils up and pops, look out! From the top of her head to the tips of her toes, she's the epitome of voluptuosity and stackitude. "Maserati is an incredible looking woman," comments Jimbo. "She has a pretty face, a amazingly shapely body and unbelievable tits to top it all off." Agreed, Jimbo. It's hard to believe that Maserati only learned to masturbate over a year ago …

Kristi Maxx is a tall (5'10″), busty (38DDD) Amazonian whom we are happy to welcome into the SCORELAND universe. Tennessee titillicious temptress Kristi says she played basketball through high school and her running down-court in a tight tank must have been a sight for SCORE eyes with those bouncy bazooms. She's still a basketball fan and watches it all the time. Favorite teams: the Celtics and University of North Carolina's Tarheels. "I always wear a bra," Kristi Maxx says. "I need to with my big titties." Kristi's only 21 years-old. She's horny, she's hot, she's busting out with hormonal heat. "I masturbate all the time. I am like a guy. I either have to do it first thing in the morning or right before I go to bed." Guys go for her butt as well as her big boobs and that's cool with Kristi Maxx. "I love having my ass worshipped," Kristi tells us. She thinks a confident man is a sexy man. "Confidence is so sexy to me. Too many people these days are self-conscious about a lot of things. With confidence, you can really turn a girl on!" Welcome aboard, Kristi Maxx.

Mianna Thomas: Sports Girl
Mianna Thomas's knockout body has been breastnotizing us poor boob suckers since she first busted out here. This boob is no exception and becomes a slave of her nipples before working his way down to her pink pussy-hole. When we first saw Mianna Thomas, we thought she was a dream, a mirage, the second coming of the now legendary, now retired, Brit bra-killer Sammie Black. But Sammie never fucked guys on camera like Mianna Thomas does. And with joy and happiness and a big smile as she gleefully drains their nut-bags of the man-sauce. "I am proud of my tits" says Mianna Thomas. We're glad she says this. "I love them." Sometimes Mianna Thomas will meet a guy who just wants to fuck her tits …

December 2013 – brought to you in two parts. Part 2 – end of December
- - - -
The last part of December was filled with Eric's birthday and holiday get-togethers.
A new whale ornament! [bought at Leif]
Yea! I got a Herbie for Christmas!
Up north visiting Eric's dad and when the negative weather began.
Hot chocolate after a night walk in the freezing temps.
Got to see these tots at the bowling alley and watch them open gifts.
The next day got to see them again before they headed home to the east coast.
It was quite the busy week, but worth it.

The other day I had a long conversation with a friend. We talked some about things she was going through, we talked about my day, we talked about how life can be hard and how it can suck. After we talked she looked at me and said, "Thank you. You just make me feel so much better." Or something to that effect and it got me thinking.
You see...I have been praying for this friend a lot lately. Praying that she would feel comfort and peace and know that she's going to be okay. I prayed that the Lord would cement in her heart his love for her and her friends and family love for her. After she said that to me I realized that God just used me to answer part of my own prayer. How many times do we pray and forget that we can be part of the answer? Prayer also requires action.
How many times do we pray for friends who are going through hard times to feel peace and comfort and understood? Do we really live our lives in ways that show we want to be part of the answering of these prayers? Do we ever pray this and forget we can pick up the phone, make a coffee date, or write an encouraging note to them? I know there's an extent where the practicality (is this a word?) runs out and there are wounds only the Lord can heal, but I'm convinced He can and wants to use us in that process.
I pray that the teenage girls I spend time with would feel loved, valued, and know their lives matter. Ever since realizing this I've now asked myself each day how can I be a part of showing them they feel loved, valued and that that they matter and praying God would use me.
So just ask yourself next time you find yourself praying for a friend, a family member, a co-worker or that stranger on the street corner. What can you do to be part of the answer? Praying that they would feel Christ's love for them? Show them love. Praying they would feel comfort? Give them a hug. Praying they will get out of their funk? Plan a fun day with them. Praying that man on the street corner would find a home? Buy the newspaper he's selling.
Are you truly praying in a way that you're ready for God to use you as part of the solution?

Aftermarket Vehicles
Video: Why Accidents Involving Aftermarket Vehicles Occur
When an aftermarket vehicle, such as a recreational vehicle (RV) or limousine, is involved in an accident, often times a defect is the cause and the resulting injuries are catastrophic. Modifications made to a vehicle after it leaves the original manufacturer are considered "aftermarket."
It is common for consumers or businesses to unknowingly purchase vehicles that have been substantially changed from their original manufactured condition – either because aftermarket or salvage parts were used during repairs, or because the vehicle itself was modified before put into use. These changes are particularly common in:

We Have Won Millions for Clients
in Aftermarket Vehicle Cases

For more than three decades, clients and referring attorneys across the country have relied on Langdon & Emison to identify and litigate aftermarket vehicle cases. The example below demonstrates our experience in this area of practice.
$2.15 million jury verdict, Defective Camper Trailer, Ludwick v. United Expresslines
A family of four was asphyxiated in their RV trailer while attending and participating in automobile races at the Mid-American Raceway near Wentzville, Mo. Langdon & Emison's legal team successfully showed that the trailer was defectively designed and manufactured and failed to incorporate warning systems for the detection of carbon monoxide gas.

Capital city
San Josè
Costa Rican Colòn
Typical TEFL teacher salary
Major TEFL locations
San Josè
If you're looking to teach English in Central America, Costa Rica will most likely offer you the highest salaries. Once you become a certified TEFL teacher through one of our numerous course options, we'll help you find a job through our lifetime job placement assistance.
You could be fortunate enough to find a post teaching English at one of the many beach locations in Costa Rica, or in a smaller town within the country, but competition for teaching jobs in these locations, especially coastal ones, is quite high and it may take some time before securing a position there. The main recruitment period for teachers in Costa Rica is from May to September. Many language schools are needy of teachers at this time and there are usually more jobs than teachers.
Costa Ricans, similar to their fellow world citizens, view speaking English as a means to gaining good employment and to increase their chances of promotion and therefore a higher salary. The result of this is that there are many language schools in Costa Rica, offering a full range of English courses year round and in virtually every town and city. This means there is a high demand for English teachers in Costa Rica.
Most schools prefer to hire teachers who are currently in Costa Rica rather than hiring from overseas. As with all Latin American countries, employers prefer to see the applicant in person to gain an overall impression. However, there are job postings on some major TEFL job web sites and in local online versions of newspapers. Most schools will hire you if you hold a TEFL certificate, university degree, have a good personality and are smartly dressed.
Most jobs teaching English in Costa Rica are located in the towns and cities of the Central Valley area, with positions also available in most urban coastal areas. Most schools do not provide their own training so it is important to have undergone TEFL training in order to gain good employment. Take your course with ITTT and TEFL International; we'll not only provide you with a TEFL certificate that's recognized worldwide, we'll also help you find a great job — in Costa Rica or anywhere else your heart leads you.
