  • Harry Potter Resource Guide for Fans
    Prepared by Janan Nuri May 2020 Module: INM307 Sending out owls to all fans of Harry Potter Whether you’re a die-hard Potterhead, a fan who loves the movies, or a pure-blood who sticks to the books, there’s something here for you. This resource guide is a starting point for exploring more of the Harry Potter series and J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World, which is a vast universe in canon and in fandom. You’ll find resources listed, followed by a short description of what to expect from them, and why they’re worth checking out. Even though this guide is geared towards fans based in the UK, there are plenty of online resources to connect you with others around the world. The focus is more on the Harry Potter series, though the Fantastic Beasts series and The Cursed Child play are also included. Marauders’ Mapping the Way Don’t worry, you won’t need your wand to cast Lumos to illuminate the way, this guide has been designed to be as simple and straightforward to navigate as possible. There are hyperlinks in the Contents and in the text to jump to relevant parts of the guide. The guide has four sections, ‘Exploring the Canon’, ‘Exploring the Fandom’, ‘Places to Visit’ and a ‘Shopping Guide’ for fans who visit London UK, the location of Diagon Alley in the series. There’s also a ‘Glossary’ at the end, explaining common fan phrases (if you’re not sure what ‘canon’ and ‘fandom’ means, then have a quick peek now).

  • Benton to St. Andrews School and Homework
    SPRING/SUMMER / / 2020 / / ISSUE 2 BENTON BUGLE WRITTEN BY STUDENTS, FOR STUDENTS Letter from the Editors ABIGAIL KITWOOD AND ELOISE HAINSWORTH Welcome to the lockdown edition of The Benton Bugle! We know it has been a tough time for many people as the COVID-19 pandemic has struck and fundamentally altered everyone’s lives. Our school lives have been changed by the pandemic, with many of us working hard at home to ensure we stay on top of the work that we’ve been set. Over the past few weeks, Year 10 and Year 12 students have been returning to school and it has been great to see our school community back and stronger than ever. Although it’s been strange, the staff at school have been incredible in ensuring that we can all be safe and continue our learning, even in these Georgia was a previous student at Benton Park and now attends St. Andrews University circumstances. As the summer holidays begin, we hope that you enjoy yourself and take a well-deserved break from the challenging past few months. Although it may not be the summer that we were all hoping for, it’s important to take a break for yourself, away from Benton to St. Andrews school and homework. Now that lockdown restrictions are easing, we hope that you will be able to see your friends and family in a safe environment. GEORGIA FIELDING But getting to this point was scary, I have to Maybe we’ll even be lucky enough to enjoy some UK admit. I spent many hours debating where the sun.

He stocks all manner of goods that a being could use on a hardscrabble planet such as Tatooine. While he handles the bookkeeping, purchasing and the like, the Human employs a Jawa as his mechanic and clerk. What Trallig doesn't know is that Dibs Nkik has his own aspirations as an information broker; he reprograms the droids that his kinfolk bring to sell, giving them instructions to transmit any useful information to him. In this way he intends to learn the secrets of those who do business with him, and then to sell those tidbits to interested (and paying) parties. The Store The building itself is a simple pourstone structure, about a story and a half in height.

  • Harry Potter E Il Principe Mezzosangue ··
    Harry Potter e il principe mezzosangue ·· Scritto da Umberto Rossi Giovedì 16 Luglio 2009 00:00 - Ultimo aggiornamento Sabato 23 Aprile 2011 17:22 Harry Potter e il principe mezzosangue di David Yates – seconda volta alle prese con il personaggio dopo Harry Potter e l'ordine della fenice (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, 2007) – segna la sesta puntata delle avventure del maghetto che ha reso miliardaria la sua autrice. Il tutto in attesa della sconfitta finale del principe dei maligni, quell’angelo decaduto diventato Lord Voldemort, appassionante variazione del mito di Lucifero, che ha ceduto al lato oscuro della forza e della magia per diventare il signore dei Mangiamorte. La struttura dell’episodio e dell’intera storia è desolatamente elementare – gli ottimi da una parte i malvagi dall’altra – mentre sono quasi del tutto tramontati i pur timidi accenni satirici alla polverosità della scuola britannica. Più ancora che nelle puntate precedenti ciò che domina lo schermo è la magia degli effetti speciali, meglio il virtuosismo delle immagini create e gestite dal computer. C'è un solo elemento parzialmente nuovo: l’esplodere delle prime pulsioni sessuali reso inevitabile dall’aumentare dell’età degli interpreti. In definitiva il film presenta dialoghi statici, noiosissimi, prevedibili sino all’incredibile e resi parzialmente incomprensibili – per chi non sua un addetto ai lavori – dal riferimento continuo a personaggi e situazioni codificate negli episodi precedenti. C’è da dire, poi, che questa sagra, parzialmente come quella de Il signore degli anelli (The Lord of the Rings, 1937-49) di John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892 – 1973), appartiene a quel genere fantas y che non ha mai avuto grandissima popolarità nei paesi mediterranei ed è figlia diretta di una cultura protestante che ignora la confessione e la redenzione.

For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand. – Albert Einstein This master project would not have been possible if it wasn’t for the narrative that stands at the centre of this study. Therefore, thank you to Joanne K. Rowling for creating the world so many people feel so deeply connected to. The story of Harry Potter enriched my life – opening up the world of fantasy and friendship. Also, this study would have not been possible without the help and support of the people I met in the course of my research. Therefore I want to thank all my research partners. To the Nerdfighter community: don’t you dare ever forget to be awesome! To the members of the quidditch team Vienna Vanguards: thank you for encouraging me and for enduring and answering my endless questions.

And because it’s littered with beautiful notions like banishing fear with laughter, or being able to defeat something that’s determined to snuff out your happiness with a joyful thought.” - PARAPHRASED: As we grew in years, so did Harry.

    THE DARTH SIDE MEMOIRS OF A MONSTER The journal of Darth Vader, Lord of the Sith and Servant to His Excellency the Emperor Palpatine As told by Cheeseburger Brown http://cheeseburgerbrown.com The contents of this journal have not been endorsed by Lucasfilm, Twentieth Century Fox, or any other entity affiliated with the Star Wars franchise. It is an unauthorized product of fan-fiction. This document has been formatted by a trained monkey. Edition 1.11 – 25 May 2005 THE DARTH SIDE: MEMOIRS OF A MONSTER • Cheeseburger Brown A New Hope It is a period of civil war. Guerrilla spaceships striking from a hidden base have won a narrow victory against our loyal Imperial forces, inflicting heavy losses in terms of casualties and, worse, the galactic peace. During the battle insurgent spies managed to steal secret plans to our ultimate weapon and the brainchild of Tarkin’s dream, the DEATH STAR, an armoured space station with enough firepower to destroy an entire planet. The whole thing has given me a massive headache. Moff Nur has been killed, a wound in my life for which I shall never forgive the traitorous Rebel Alliance. Nur has been my closest confidant outside of my master for years, and I will feel his loss keenly. Our long conversations have always helped me clarify matters, though he was no mentor -- rather, a friend. Nur never told me what to think. He showed me how to find the answers myself. I wish I could seek his counsel now. The last time we spoke, right before the battle, he made a suggestion I admit I considered absurd.
