Rated 4 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Eliz The product tastes great (best on the market that I have found so far) and the price is reasonable. The pizza sauce has a nice flavor with a little spice to it. Not bland like a lot of others on the market. This sauce is even better on homemade pizza crust too! February 26, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Demigoddess1 Meh You'll definitely want to doctor this up with some savory additions like garlic and onion (or use a more flavorful sauce). My family thought it was pretty bland with just cheese and a few toppings. January 14, 2014

Corey Albertson
The future of Kentucky basketball almost in view as head coach John Calipari drives the bus over the top of the hill into college basketball's valley of legends. With the 2013 recruiting class starting to shape up nicely with three commitments, and a pretty good feel for who else will join the party, fans have a good idea of who will be on the roster for next season. After that, the class of 2014 targets have all been identified, profiled and evaluated as Kentucky targets. The 2014 recruiting class figures to be just as good as the 2013 class (and previous Calipari signing groups) with the Wildcats in early on some of the top talent in the country. With all of that information out in the public, Cats Illustrated wants to take a look at the sophomore class and give an early indication as to who the top Kentucky targets might be as that class develops. Bigger and BiggerScouts have proclaimed the class of 2014 to be the year of the big man. But in the world of scouting, where everyone is always looking for the next big thing, the class of 2015 might quickly take that title away from their elders. The sophomore class already has four interior players who are consistently being raved about by national media in Wisconsin center Diamond Stone, Oakland PF/C Ivan Rabb, Atlanta center Daniel Giddens and Las Vegas center Stephen Zimmerman.Despite all being young post players, these four prospects have very different games. Zimmerman currently has the most height at a legit 6-foot-11. With that height he is able to control the paint on both ends, but scouts also love his skill-set on the block as a scorer and passer to cutters. Giddens is the most raw offensively, but at 6-foot-10 with great athleticism he has near unlimited potential; and is arguably the best shot-blocker in high school basketball as just a sophomore. With as much potential as likely five-stars Zimmerman and Giddens have, Rabb and Stone are thought to be the gems of this class. Stone is a 6-foot-10 back to the basket player who Rivals Eric Bossi said has a throw-back and hard-working game in the Kevin Love mold. Stone might not be the best athlete, but he's skilled, strong and will not be out-worked on the court. As good as Stone is, Rabb made national headlines at the LeBron James Skills Academy over the summer when he famously dominated Stone in a low post matchup on the last day of camp. The scary thing about Rabb is that he isn't even close to reaching his potential as a player. Rabb is 6-foot-9, can run and jump, and despite not being overly skilled yet is able to score with an uncanny consistency on the low post. When it's all said and done, Rabb and Stone will probably battle several more times for the top post spot in Rivals 2015 rankings. Multiple Positions Means Multiple OffersRivals hasn't released a list of five-star prospects yet in the class of 2015. However, it is safe to say that New Jersey forward Karl Towns and Texas forward Mickey Mitchell will be included in that list once it is released. When you have great size, the ability to play multiple positions, athleticism and a solid basketball skill-set the only thing missing is the experience that will come in time for these two prospects. Towns has earned the distinguished honor of being the first, and so far the only, 2015 prospect to receive a verbal scholarship offer from Calipari. He will contend for the top spot in the 2015 rankings as he has a Dirk Nowitzki like inside-outside game with great sized at 6-foot-10. On top of all of his skill and potential, Towns is also one of the most experienced 2015 prospects as he has already played at the highest level of international basketball by making the Dominican Republic National Team; coached by none other than John Calipari. Towns admittedly is a huge fan of former Florida post Al Horford, a current NBA all-star with the Atlanta Hawks, and lists Florida along with Kentucky as his top two schools at the moment. Mitchell is not only an elite forward on the basketball court, he's also one of the nation's top quarterback prospects; watching him play on the AAU circuit you can see that by the way he leads his team and thinks the game. At 6-foot-6, Mitchell can play any position besides center and while he doesn't have one particular skill that he shines at, he has relatively no weaknesses in his game. Also an accomplished player for his age, Mitchell has been listed among the top 2015 players since he was in the 7th grade; and made a splash at the national level by playing AAU alongside Kentucky target Julius Randle (who is also a high school teammate of Mitchell's) against players from the class of 2012, and showing that he was capable of hanging around against the older competition. Putting the Ball in the BucketThe position in 2015 that has seen the least amount of praise from scouts so far has been the wing guard spot. We can chalk that up to players still being in the developmental stages of their games, and many new names should emerge as the high school season gets underway. Right now there are two prospects who we feel that Calipari will take a look at as they get older; those two are Mississippi shooting guard Malik Newman and California's Tyler Dorsey.Newman has been on the radar for quite some time now, and has been profiled by Cats Illustrated as a guard whom Kentucky has shown early interest to. He's one of those "roll out of bed and score 30" type of guards who is dangerous as a scorer from anywhere on the court. With a mature physicality and athleticism to his game, Newman is probably the best 2015 guard in the class right now; and will contend for the number one guard spot over the next three seasons. Dorsey was one of the more heralded players at last weekend's USA Basketball Mini-Camp for 2015/2016 prospects. He's an up-tempo style of guard who can play multiple positions, get to the basket at will and is a triple-threat as a scorer, passer or shooter. Have to Have a Point GuardIf there is one thing that goes synonymously with Calipari, it is great point guard play. Whoever the Big Blue sign in 2015, they're sure to have one of the nation's most elite point guard prospects in that group. To sign one of those elite point guards, Calipari might not have to travel too far; as two talented floor generals reside in the state of Indiana. Potential five-star prospects Jalen Coleman, out of Indianapolis, and Hyron Edwards, of East Chicago are about as good as it gets in the nation's sophomore class. Coleman proved his worth as a freshman at Cathedral HS as he ran the show against top flight national competition, then dominated on the AAU circuit with Nike's Spiece Indy Heat. A very competitive guard with good size and quickness, Coleman is devastating off of the dribble and is equally skilled as a passer and a scorer. Edwards is a pure point guard as well, but plays a more shifty and cerebral game. He doesn't have the size of Coleman but he excels in the pick and roll game, can shoot the ball and is good at finding passing lanes in traffic against bigger players. If Calipari doesn't like the taste of Indiana with those two prospects his next stop could be to New Jersey to see heavily hyped lead guard Isaiah Briscoe. Known as a creative, must-watch, prospect in the New York City metro area, Briscoe is a highlight reel passer and slashing scorer with a bright future. One diamond in the rough that Calipari could have an inside lead on is 6-foot-7 guard Luis Monteiro out of the Dominican Republic. Monteiro is considered to be a raw guard with tremendous upside who Calipari went to visit with this fall at the Wilbraham & Monson Academy (Mass.). ...More...

1 have more units/ bigger fieldpresence
2 have a huge sp advantage compared to my opponent
else I loose.
Of course there are falkow decks that doesnt need return: Mermaids. They are a bit like refess or gowen like, tanky, have heal, "master buffers" and big surprise "not competetive with top tier decks" (doesnt mean they are bad). to adress this, a unit was designed to help to save sp via field manipulation, dmg and revive. And big surprise: one of the first real standalone falkow units was born and the community raged.
Next example: grimcount. great attack buffing. but the resources spent in grimcount are lost in sp = loosing sp game= "not competetive with top tier decks".

1964 Chevy C10 - C-10 Crossmember Cure-AllWritten on January 22, 2007 Porterbuilt Street Rods' IFS Remedy For '63-87 Chevy's
If you've ever owned a '63-87 Chevy/GMC 1/2-ton, then you know what a headache the stock front crossmember can be if you want to get your truck low. Sure, dropped spindles and springs will easily afford a lowered stance, but if you want to go more than a few inches-which is all you get before that low-slung chunk of metal that holds the control arms in place starts getting closer and closer to the pavement-then you need to start thinking about adding air springs. But even with the addition of 'bags and tubular control arms, there's still a lot of stuff hanging below the framerails. When your truck's just sittin' still, lookin' pretty, that's OK-but not when you're maneuvering around town.
After spending some time perfecting everything, Nathan Porter's Porterbuilt Street Rods in Mesa, Arizona, came up with the perfect solution for the problematic '63-87 C-10s: The Dropmember IFS. Available in two versions-the standard kit, which uses either stock or Air Ride Technologies' Strong Arms, and the Dropmember C4, which, as the name suggests, utilizes Corvette C4 components-Porterbuilt's system is currently the only alternative to Z'ing the frame or sectioning the stock crossmember in order to achieve sufficient clearance between the control arms and the ground. Both Dropmember kits eliminate the stock steering box and linkage, replacing them with a high-performance rack-and-pinion unit. Using Strong Arms is recommended, but for those who want to retain the stock control arms, they will require modifications to accept airbags (the '63-72 lowers will require slight modification for mounting to the Dropmember). Porterbuilt altered the stock suspension geometry (including narrowing the track width by 2 inches) to achieve better handling characteristics, so you not only get the look, you also get the performance. By using the standard Dropmember along with 3-inch dropped spindles, you can put the framerails on the ground with a 29-inch-tall tire. The basic kit includes the fully welded Dropmember, inner framerail plates, control arm/'bag mounts, rack-and-pinion mounting bushings, and all the necessary hardware (a complete kit also includes Strong Arms, 'bags, shocks, and rack-and-pinion).
The step up-or down, rather-is the Dropmember C4, designed to offer the same clearance advantages as the standard kit, but outfitted with Corvette suspension and steering instead. The C4 system can be used with either Air Ride Technologies' ShockWaves or a standard-type coilover unit, and is available in two ride height configurations: 4-5 or 5-6 inches. The 4-5 ride height will allow the frame to set on the ground when combined with a ShockWave and a 27-inch-diameter tire; the 5-6 will allow the frame to set 1 inch off the ground with the same setup. Porterbuilt produced the Dropmember C4 with the performance enthusiast in mind.
Neither of the Dropmember systems are simple bolt-ins; while there's not a lot of major fabrication involved other than notching your 'rails (they've done most of the hard stuff for you), there is a lot of work involved, especially with a complete truck that's already on the road. We got a chance to see Nathan and the crew at Porterbuilt equip a '64 C-10 with a standard Dropmember/Strong Arm kit. Follow along and see if you're up to the task-otherwise, give Porterbuilt a call...they'd be more than happy to do it for you!

The all-new Dropmember from Porterbuilt Street Rods is the answer for curing the '63-87 C-10's factory crossmember woes. With Air Ride Technologies' Strong Arms, 'bags, and a set of 3-inch dropped spindles, your framerails will touch the ground-not your suspension.To illustrate the Dropmember's ride height advantages, Porterbuilt started with an ordinary '64 Chevy shortwide, shown here in its factory "sky-high" glory.The culprit behind prohibiting these era trucks from being properly lowered is a bulky, low-slung front crossmember. Even with spindles and 'bags, your control arm bushings come in contact with the ground way before anything else.The process of incorporating the Dropmember into your chassis begins with the C-notch required for tie rod clearance. Porterbuilt supplies you with detailed instructions on how to measure off existing framerail holes.The supplied notch should be fully welded to the sides and the lower lip of the truck's framerail; flushing with the outside edge is optional.With the 'rails modified, it's time to start installing the various Dropmember components. The geometry has already been configured into the kit; you simply drill the necessary holes and bolt the pieces on.
Next, the inner frame plate goes in place, as shown. If there's a chance you'll be running any plumbing/wiring along the framerail where the plate is, drill access holes before going any further.For the upper control arm/airbag mounting plate, you'll need to drill one additional 1/2-inch hole; all the remaining holes use existing mounting points.Using the supplied hardware, install the crossmember's center portion using the 1/2-inch Grade 8's,...Once the entire Dropmember kit is securely bolted in place, it's time to install the control arms. Though the kit is designed to accept Air Ride's Strong Arms, you can use your stock ones, but they will require slight modification. We'll proceed with the Strong Arms.The Strong Arms are clamped into the crossmember as shown, making sure that the locator pin on the control arm cross-shaft is properly inserted into the mount.You are required to slightly modify the lower Strong Arm by moving the airbag mount out toward the spindle approximately 1 1/2 inches. This does not move the 'bag; it's done to accommodate the Dropmember's upper airbag mounting location.
As you can see, the rack's high mounting location requires the notches performed earlier. This location also keeps it from being in the line of fire-of road obstacles, that is.Whether you use stock or dropped spindles, the steering arms will need to be modified by drilling the holes out to 5/8 for the heavy-duty Heim joints used on the tie rods.Once that's done, install the upper Strong Arms, followed by the airbags and spindles (with the new ball joints, hardware, etc.).If you were wondering how the short Mustang II rack ends were addressed, wonder no more. The Dropmember includes heavy-duty extensions/alignment bushings along with 3/4-inch Heim joints.And here's what things will look like from the bottom side once everything's buttoned up nice and snug. Notice how the lower control arm bushings aren't hanging way down like they used to.Minus the engine and affiliated components, here's what she'll look like from above-not too shabby, huh? The Dropmember does affect the engine and radiator location (Porterbuilt can provide new motor mounts), so there's still some work to do before hitting the road.Ultimately, this is what you're after-clearance, and plenty of it. Before, you'd be staring directly at the front of the stock crossmember; now, speed bumps, potholes, and various road hazards have nothing to tangle with.Fully deflated with a 29-inch-tall tire and 3-inch dropped spindles, the '64 will lay its framerails on the pavement before anything else touches the ground. Depending on the year of your truck and the severity of the drop, you may have to modify various parts, such as the inner fenderwells hinges, etc.

I was really excited to purchase these shoes on super sale in store as I could not find them in my size anywhere! I scored them for $30! I ended up buying a size 7, my typical Crocs size, although I am a true 8. Crocs in a size 8 tend to run big on my narrow foot. I was a little hesitant as the heel flops on and off. I thought it may have just been because I have a narrow foot and the shoe is wide. I was told by the sales associate that they are made to be floppy like a clog. If you wear them with that mindset they are doable. Love how simple they are. I didn't want to put a lot of money into nursing shoes because if I am actually admitted they have to be white. These black shoes are just to tide me over. In the winter they will fit well with a thick boot sock. Nervous about the summer as I will probably wear them without socks.

I loved these at first. They were comfy, roomy, and perfect for the fast paced kitchen I work in. that is until they shrunk. A whole shoe size. I can't wear them anymore and I'm forced to buy another pair after having these only a month. I've had my bistro crocs for 3 years and I love them but they're not cute. I liked the look of these plus the initial comfort. Overall though, I'm very disappointed. That its apparently a known thing that they shrink (i didn't know until I looked into it after mine did) why not at least put some disclaimer on the product? I feel ripped off by this product. And now I have to spend another $50 on new shoes.. I might as well have gone with berkies. At least those don't shrink.

I have heard great and amazing reviews on the Danscos from all my nurse co-workers, but I cannot wear Danscos so when I saw these, they had the same design but looked much more comfortable. I was right. I am a L&D nurse and am on my feet ALOT at work. I use to wear the original style crocks and though I'd give these a try. I love love love them. Thank you.

Comments about Crocs Neria Work:
Had reorder the shoe one size bigger than my normal size. After that they were very comfortable. I work as a nurse in long term care and they felt great the whole shift. However, they made a very embarrassing squeaking noise with every step I took. Everyone knew I was coming whether they could see me or not. So I don't really wear them now.

In collaborating on my recent eBook, 4 Bloggers Dish: Passover, Modern Twists on Traditional Flavors, I thought a lot about how my tastes have shifted over the years and how in some ways, they haven't at all.
During Passover, a lot of home-cooks turn back to traditional foods that may be outside of the scope of what they normally eat. This naturally brought me to contemplating gefilte fish. And while I LOVE my gefilte fish, I'm totally DIS-interested in making it. The stink of simmering fish broth in my home? No thanks. Continue reading

What is open source? Open-source software is software that makes the source code freely available, for anyone to see and use. There are different open-source licenses that have different use conditions, from the GPL (GNU General Public License) -- which allows "free distribution under the condition that further developments and applications are put under the same license" -- to more liberal licenses like the Apache License, which doesn't require modifications to be open and have the source code available. Android uses both of these licenses, and we'll have a look at them in turn.
The Linux kernel that is used in the OS is covered under the GPL. This means that any changes made to the source code must be made available when a binary (geek-speak for a compiled, executable piece of software) is released to the public. This means manufacturers like HTC, Samsung, Motorola and the rest must release the kernel source-code for any devices they sell at the same time they begin selling them. For the most part, hardware manufacturers are pretty good about doing so, but they often miss the time frame and release the source code a little later than we would like. These are the code releases you see us mention -- the kernel and other open-source "bits" that are covered under the GPL.
The Android OS source code is released mostly under the Apache License. Anybody is allowed to download the source code and change it however they like, but they are not required to make their changes available in source code form to the public. This is why we can't change and recompile things like HTC Sense or MotoBlur -- the changes to the base Android source code aren't available to us. While many folks (myself included) don't like this situation very much, it does make sense from a business standpoint. If manufacturers had to share all of their secrets, there wouldn't be as much monetary incentive to innovate, so the source was offered with a far more liberal license. It certainly worked, as we see devices from many major players in the electronics world.

The great thing about the Kelty Sunshade is that you can adjust the height and width so it'll continually shade you all day long. Kelty made the fly out of polyester for breathable comfort that blocks the sun and the poles out of fiberglass for flexible durability. Continuous sleeves make setup quick and simple, and guyout points keep the Sunshade in place. The included backpack carry bag lets you take this shade from the car to the beach even if your hands are full.

this thing has kept friends and I quite cool on a hot day, though I have chased this thing through the desert. keep in mind windy conditions can be a pain with this guy if you have strapped it down all the way, But even when strapped down all the way side will blow in quite a bit.
Transports Easy
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
Nice little sunshade prime for car camping or anything that you need some protection from the sun. Easy to set up I keep it in the trunk cause you never know when it will come in handy.
Why doesn't anyone make one that is rain proof? I own the sunshade and love it....just wish they made one that was water proof not water resistant...

Officials say a man asked a saleswoman at the jewelry store Goldworks to show him some rings, then he ran out of the store with them.
AUBURN, Maine (AP) _ Police in Maine are looking for a man who stole two engagement rings from an Auburn jewelry store and then pawned them in Lewiston.
The owner of Goldworks jewelry store tells the Lewiston Sun-Journal the man asked to see engagement rings Thursday. A saleswoman showed him two rings. He asked what size they were, then ran out of the store with the rings, worth about $7,000.
Police said the man likely got into a car that sped to Lewiston. The rings were pawned there for $1,000.
Police were able to see the man on surveillance video and took fingerprints at the jewelry store.

Renton, WA, August 20, 2007 – EcoBranders announced today its new partnership with Carbonfund.org, the country's leading carbon reduction and offset organization. EcoBranders has committed to offset 100% of the carbon emissions generated by the shipping of its client's orders. This practical step highlights EcoBranders commitment to be a leader in the promotional products industry.
EcoBranders' stakeholders are very concerned about global warming and other environmental issues. Considering the implications of climate change, carbon offsets through Carbonfund.org are a natural extension of the work EcoBranders does on behalf of its stakeholders.
"We fully recognize the seriousness of the problems caused by global warming and are committed to being a part of the solution", says company president Stacee Matheson. "Our company was built with the purpose of being a platform for change, allowing us to better the world in various ways. Our partnership with Carbonfund.org falls right in line with that mission."
"EcoBranders is a great example of an organization that is leading the way in protecting our environment," said Steve Offutt, Chief Operating Officer of Carbonfund.org. "They exemplify our motto: Reduce what you can; offset what you can't. By selling a comprehensive line of more sustainable products, they are reducing what they can, and by taking the next step to actively offset their shipping emissions, they are offsetting what they can't. We are pleased to have them as a CarbonFree partner."
Carbonfund.org is a non-profit organization whose goal is to make carbon offsets and climate protection easy, affordable and a normal way of life for every individual and business. Carbon offsets enable individuals and businesses to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in one location, where it is cost effective, to offset the emissions they are responsible for in their normal activities, like home, office, driving or air travel emissions. By supporting renewable energy, energy efficiency, and reforestation projects Carbonfund.org will retire an equivalent amount of carbon offsets. The financial support from these offsets will then help to continue the development of clean, renewable domestic sources of energy.

The company's extensive offering includes products made from sustainable resources such as recycled materials, organic cotton, corn plastic, soy, bamboo and industrial hemp.

Ariana Dumbledore
this wiki
- "It destroyed her, what they did: She was never right again. She wouldn't use magic, but she couldn't get rid of it; it turned inward and drove her mad, it exploded out of her when she couldn't control it, and at times she was strange and dangerous. But mostly she was sweet and scared and harmless."
- —Aberforth Dumbledore on his younger sister Ariana[src]
Ariana Dumbledore (c. 1885 - late summer 1899[1]) was a half-blood witch and the youngest child and only daughter of Percival and Kendra Dumbledore. She was the younger sister of Albus and Aberforth Dumbledore. At the age of six, Ariana was attacked by Muggle boys who saw her practicing magic, and, when she couldn't show them the trick, attacked her in an attempt to stop her from using the magic. This left her traumatised to the point of rendering her magical abilities unstable and uncontrollable. This prompted her father to attack the boys and be imprisoned in Azkaban, while her mother moved the family to Godric's Hollow and kept Ariana hidden away from the general population, because she knew Ariana would be taken to St. Mungo's hospital if her condition were widely known. During a fit when she was fourteen years old, Ariana caused a magical explosion that killed her mother, after which her older brother Albus became her guardian. Ariana died when she was accidentally struck by a curse in a three-way duel between her older brothers and Dark Wizard Gellert Grindelwald, Albus's friend at the time; it was never known who struck the killing blow. This event would have a profound impact on both her brothers' lives.
Early life
- "When my sister was six years old, she was attacked, by three Muggle boys. They'd seen her practicing magic, spying through the back garden hedge: She was a kid, she couldn't control it, no witch or wizard can at that age. What they saw, scared them, I expect. They forced their way through the hedge, and when she couldn't show them the trick, they got a bit carried away trying to stop the little freak doing it."
- —Aberforth Dumbledore on Ariana's attack[src]
Ariana was the youngest of three children of Percival and Kendra Dumbledore, born in 1885 in Mould-on-the-Wold, a wizarding village in England. At the age of six, she was seen practicing magic by a group of Muggle boys. When she was unable to show them how to do the same thing again, they violently assaulted her. The attack left Ariana emotionally scarred and unable to control her magic. Her father sought revenge against the boys and was sentenced to Azkaban for life for the crime. He refused to reveal the reason for the attack, since Ariana would have been sent to St Mungo's if her condition was discovered, as it threatened the Statute of Secrecy.[2]
To keep her daughter safe, Kendra moved the family to Godric's Hollow and Ariana was secluded from the outside world.[2] Many did not know that the Dumbledores had a daughter (or that Aberforth and Albus had a sister). Ariana was sweet and kind, but when she couldn't control her magic she became slightly dangerous. It was wondered why Kendra didn't send Ariana to Hogwarts; many believed Kendra had produced a Squib, and she was disgraced. Others were just curious as to why Ariana didn't attend Hogwarts.
Mother's death
- "I could get her to eat when she wouldn't do it for my mother, I could calm her down, when she was in one of her rages, and when she was quiet, she used to help me feed the goats."
- —Aberforth Dumbledore on his sister.[src]
When Ariana was fourteen years old, she had an episode in which her emotions and her magic spun out of control. Her favourite brother Aberforth was not at home to calm her down, and she caused an explosion that caused the death of her mother.
Albus Dumbledore, who had been preparing to go abroad with his friend, Elphias Doge, stayed in England in order to attend his mother's funeral and to take over the position of taking care of Ariana - a role he later admitted to resenting. Aberforth wanted to be the one to take care of his sister, but he had not yet finished his education, and his older brother insisted upon him graduating from Hogwarts.[2]
- "I resented it, Harry. I was gifted, I was brilliant. I wanted to escape. I wanted to shine. I wanted glory. Do not misunderstand me. I loved them... but I was selfish... So that, when my mother died, and I was left the responsibility of a damaged sister and a wayward brother, I returned to my village in anger and bitterness. Trapped and wasted, I thought! And then of course, he came..."
- —Albus Dumbledore to Harry Potter while they are in limbo.[src]
At some point after Albus became Ariana's guardian, Gellert Grindelwald came to Godric's Hollow to stay with his aunt, Bathilda Bagshot, having been kicked out of Durmstrang Institute for his extreme experiments with the Dark Arts; even the school of Dark Arts could not turn a blind eye to his twisted experiments. Grindelwald also had a bad history in his country of violence but Albus ignored that. Albus and Gellert quickly became friends, as they were both extraordinarily talented and very ambitious. Some say Albus even took a special fancying to Grindelwald. The two formed a plan to take over the wizarding world and make Muggles subservient "for the greater good".
Aberforth confronted them over these plans, pointing out that Ariana was in no state to be dragged along with them as they pursued their plans. Grindelwald became furious, insisting that once they subdued the Muggles, there'd be no need for Ariana to be hidden, and a three-way duel broke out between him, Albus, and Aberforth. Ariana, aged about 14 at the time unable to control her magic, tried to stop it, and was inadvertently killed; it was never known which of the three wizards was directly responsible for her death. After this occurred Grindelwald fled and Albus started what would be a long and prosperous life in teaching.[2]
- Aberforth: "And Albus was free, wasn't he? Free of the burden of his sister, free to become the greatest wizard of the—"
- Harry: "He was never free... Never. The night that your brother died, he drank a potion that drove him out of his mind. He started screaming, pleading with someone who wasn't there. 'Don't hurt them, please... hurt me instead.' He thought he was back there with you and Grindelwald, I know he did. He thought he was watching Grindelwald hurting you and Ariana... It was torture to him, if you'd seen him then, you wouldn't say he was free."
- — Harry Potter and Aberforth Dumbledore[src]
Immediately after Ariana's death, Grindelwald fled the scene, fearing retribution from the authorities and losing his friendship with Albus permanently, though it seems they retained some affection towards one another.
At Ariana's funeral, Aberforth broke Albus's nose and blamed him for their sister's death.[3] Aberforth never forgave his brother for his part in their sister's death, nor was Albus ever able to forgive himself.[4] Ariana was buried in the same location as her mother in Godric's Hollow, and they shared a gravestone bearing the epitaph, "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also," selected by Albus.
In the Mirror of Erised, Albus would forever see his family whole and intact with Ariana alive and using magic, although he claimed to see himself holding only a pair of socks when questioned. Rita Skeeter wrote a scathing biography of Albus Dumbledore after his death in 1997, and included humiliating false statements about Ariana being a Squib whom the family mistreated.[5]
A portrait of Ariana hangs in Aberforth's room in the Hog's Head Inn in Hogsmeade. It conceals a secret passage to the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts Castle.[2] This passage appeared only after the students had begun using the Room of Requirement in their efforts to fight the Hogwarts administration under Headmaster Severus Snape. It was used to transport Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley to Hogwarts in 1998 with Neville Longbottom, and later other members of Dumbledore's Army and the Order of the Phoenix who answered the call to defend the castle against Lord Voldemort's encroaching army.[6]
Physical appearance
Harry Potter thought that Ariana, as an infant, "was a little longer than a loaf of bread and no more distinctive-looking."[5] At the age of fourteen, as depicted in her portrait in the Hog's Head, she was described as "a blonde girl who gazed out at the room with a kind of a vacant sweetness."[2]
Personality and traits
- "...the flashing lights and the bangs set her off, she couldn't stand it... and I think she wanted to help, but she didn't really know what she was doing, and I don't know which of us did it, it could have been any of us - and she was dead."
- —Aberforth Dumbledore recalling Ariana's death[src]
Ariana was severely traumatised by the attack she suffered at the age of six. Afterwards, she was unable to control her magic, which turned inwards and made her mentally and magically unstable. At times, she was mad, strange, and dangerous, according to her brother Aberforth Dumbledore. On these occasions, she could let out her magic in uncontrolled explosions that could hurt or even kill those around her, like her mother. Most of the time, however, Ariana was kind and gentle. According to Aberforth when she was calm and sweet she would help him feed the goats. She was also brave, as she tried to intercede in the three-way duel between Albus, Aberforth, and Gellert Grindelwald, despite not being able to control her own magic, but was killed in the effort.[2]
- "...my father went after the bastards that did it, and attacked them. And they locked him up in Azkaban for it. He never said why he'd done it, because if the Ministry had known what Ariana had become, she'd have been locked up in St. Mungo's for good... We had to keep her safe and quiet. We moved house, put it about she was ill, and my mother looked after her, and tried to keep her calm and happy."
- —Aberforth Dumbledore on Percival and Kendra Dumbledore[src]
Ariana's parents, Percival and Kendra Dumbledore, were devastated by their daughter's attack. Percival attacked the Muggle boys who did it, and was sent to Azkaban for it. He never told that Ministry of Magic his reasons, knowing that if they knew about Ariana's condition, she would be confined to St Mungo's as a threat to the Statute of Secrecy. To maintain this secrecy, Kendra moved the family to Godric's Hollow and looked after her daughter. However, they may not have been very close, as only Ariana's brother Aberforth was able to keep her calm. Eventually, Ariana accidentally killed her mother in an explosion of uncontrolled magic.[2]
Aberforth Dumbledore
- "I was her favourite... She liked me best."
- —Aberforth on his sister[src]
Aberforth Dumbledore was Ariana's older and favourite brother. After her attack, Aberforth was the only one who could calm her down when she flew into a rage, something even their mother could not accomplish. The two often fed goats together in their free time. Aberforth was not present when Ariana lost control of her magic and accidentally killed their mother. Afterward, he wanted to take care of Ariana, but their older brother Albus insisted that Aberforth complete his education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry first. Soon after, Albus became friends with Gellert Grindelwald, and Aberforth stepped in when they began making plans for world domination and Muggle subjugation, pointing out that Ariana was in no state to be dragged along with them. This resulted in a three-way duel between Ariana's brothers and Grindelwald. Ariana tried to interfere and was inadvertently killed by one of them, which devastated Aberforth and caused a permanent rift between him and Albus. At Ariana's funeral, Aberforth broke his brother's nose and shouted at him that her death was all his fault.
Long after Ariana's death, Aberforth continued to keep a portrait of his late sister in the Hog's Head Inn. It conceals a secret passage to the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts Castle.[2]
Albus Dumbledore
- "They say he feared me, and perhaps he did, but less, I think, than I feared him... You see, I never knew which of us, in that last, horrific fight, had actually cast the curse that killed my sister... I dreaded beyond all things the knowledge that it had been I who brought about her death, not merely through my arrogance and stupidity, but that I actually struck the blow that snuffed out her life. I think he knew it, I think he knew what frightened me."
- —Albus Dumbledore to Harry Potter about his guilt over Ariana's death[src]
Albus Dumbledore was Ariana's eldest brother and was not nearly as close to his younger siblings as they were to each other. Although he loved his younger sister, Albus was resentful when he had to take responsibility for her after their mother's death, which forced him to stay at home, and thus abandon his ambitious plans. When he and Gellert Grindelwald made plans to subjugate Muggles and take power in the Wizarding world, Albus planned to bring Ariana with them, but Aberforth pointed out that she was in no state to go. This launched a three-way duel between the brothers and Grindelwald, and Ariana was accidentally killed in the fray. For the rest of his life, Albus lived with guilt over the part he played in her death and with the fear that it had been he who killed her.[4]
From then on, Albus' Boggart would be Ariana's corpse. In 1991, Albus Dumbledore told Harry Potter that he saw a pair of socks when he looked into the Mirror of Erised.[7] However, in truth, he saw "his family alive, whole and happy - Ariana, Percival and Kendra all returned to him, and Aberforth reconciled to him" He did not want to admit it to anyone, especially Harry.[8]
- Ariana is the Italian version of the Greek name Ariadne, comprised of the elements αρι (ari) "most" and αδνος (adnos) "holy".[9]
- The name could also originate from the Welsh arian, meaning "silver".
Name imagery and relation to legend
- In Greek mythology, Ariadne was a princess of Crete who helped Theseus slay the Minotaur. The legend revolves around the Labyrinth: a hidden and enclosed location where people were sent to die as tribute. In this way, Ariana's name nods to her secluded, tragic life and death.
- There are parallels between the myth and Ariana's relationship with her two elder brothers, Albus and Aberforth, and their roles in her life and demise. Aberforth represents the heroic character of Theseus, fighting against Albus and Gellert Grindelwald (who function together as the dual-natured Minotaur). Aberforth was the most devoted to his sister, and was also her favourite; Ariadne also takes an instinctive liking to Theseus. As in the Greek myth Ariana (Ariadne) enables Aberforth (Theseus) to defeat Albus and Gellert (the Minotaur). Additionally, both stories end in tragedy-- Theseus betrays and deserts Ariadne on the island of Naxos. Reading Ariana's death through this myth, it can be argued that Aberforth may have cast the fatal blow. Alternately, it could be argued that he either failed or did not attempt to prevent her death. Ultimately, her death exists as a source of conflict between the Dumbledore siblings.
Behind the scenes
- Hebe Beardsall portrays Ariana Dumbledore in the film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.[10]
- Although Ariana is identified in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Aberforth does not explain how she died or her backstory as explained in the book.[11]
- Harry Potter Film Wizardry incorrectly states that Ariana died in 1900, and that she was thirteen at the time.
- The epitaph on Kendra and Ariana's gravestone - "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" - is Matthew 6:21 from the Christian Bible. This epitaph, chosen by Albus Dumbledore, is curiously similar to the function of one of Albus Dumbledore's inventions, the Deluminator.

Maurice Chavez
this wiki
Maurice Chavez is the host of VCPR in both Vice City Stories and Vice City and has his own show called Pressing Issues. He was once a clown, entertaining at birthday parties, bar mitzvas and juvenile correctional facilities. He was discovered by Michelle Montanius in 1980, and the two had a brief love affair, resulting in Michelle falling pregnant. Maurice avoided paying for an abortion, much to Michelle's distress and anger. It is unknown whether Montanius kept the child.
Chavez's programme, Pressing Issues, began broadcasting in late night time slots. Upon gaining a level of sucess, Maurice won several broadcasting awards, including "Best Personality". Maurice also appears to have repressed anger issues, as he quite often snaps or even lashes out at his guests. In 1986 he has violent confrontations with both Pastor Richards and Jeremy Robard.
He is completely oblivious to the fact that both Montanius and Freeloader absolutely hate him.
He often calls Michelle Montanius "Melissa" ("Now, to Johnathan and Melissa, in the studio"), most likely because he does not want people to know who she is and that he had an affair with her.

John Hunter
this wiki
John Hunter is a left-wing candidate for Governor of the State of Liberty (in which Liberty City resides) in Grand Theft Auto IV. His opponent is Michael Graves, and their campaigns reach the in-game billboards, radio and internet. The radio ads in particular are mostly slander-filled attack ads towards each other. Hunter is voiced by Henry Strozier.
Hunter is an Army veteran and supports the troops. He was also a small-time actor in Vinewood before politics (which may have been based on Fred Thompson).
The Intelligent Agenda
On Public Liberty Radio, he calls himself a "Conservative-Liberal Democrat" (possibly a member of the Blue Dog Democrats also a referance to British political party Conservatives And Liberal Democrat). He discusses his views on healthcare, the economy, the war. On education, he is in favor of "breaking the teachers union...[and] buy balls and uniforms, then the books if we can afford them". He refers to the internet as "a series of tubes", a reference to Alaskan Republican senator Ted Stevens' "series of tubes" analogy. A separate Graves attack ad also claims Hunter wants to use the internet to charge people $5 for masturbating. He ends up spanking child prodigy Zachary Tyler, who was being arrogant and voiced evil views about population control.
- There's a John Hunter campaign billboard in northern Berchem along the Alderney Highway, which is strange, as Alderney is a separate state to the one Hunter is running in.
- There are campaign posters for John Hunter in Algonquin.
- He was called a "fat bald prick" by his opponent, Michael Graves.
- Like Michael Graves, a pedestrian with an identical model to Hunter can be found around Liberty City.
- One of his radio commercials claims that opponent Michael Graves has "forgotten the tragic events of a few years ago", which suggests that an attack similar to the real-life 9/11 attacks happened in the GTA universe.
