In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the summer after Harry's first year at Hogwarts has been his worst summer ever. The Dursleys more distant and horrible than ever before. But just as he's packing his bags to return to school, a creature named Dobby the house-elf announces that if Harry goes back to Hogwarts, disaster will strike. And it turns out, Dobby is right. Harry and Ron miss the Hogwarts Express, so they fly to school in a blue Ford Anglia, crash landing in the notorious Whomping Willow. Soon other worries accumulate: the outrageously stuck-up new professor Gilderoy Lockhart; a ghost named Moaning Myrtle, who haunts the girls' bathroom; the strange behavior of Ron's little sister, Ginny Weasley; rumors about the 'Chamber of Secrets,' a cavern buried deep below Hogwarts; and a magical diary owned by Tom Riddle, a Hogwarts student of long ago. Harry is also shocked to discover that he can speak Parseltongue, the language of snakes - a rare ability that Lord Voldemort also possessed - and that anti-Muggle prejudice exists in the Wizarding world, even affecting Harry's friend Hermione. But all of these seem like minor concerns when someone starts turning Hogwarts students to stone: an evildoer said to be the fearsome Heir of Salazar Slytherin, on of the founders of the school. Could it be Draco Malfoy, Harry's most poisonous rival? Could it be Hagrid whose mysterious past is finally told? Or could it be the one person everyone at Hogwarts most suspects: Harry Potter himself?

During the summer vacation, the Dursleys had treated Harry so awful that Harry cannot wait to go back to Hogwarts and meet his friends. However, as the summer vacation was starting to end, Harry received a warning from Dobby, a house-elf, warning him that disasters would come once he returns to Hogwarts. The treatment Dursleys gave Harry make Harry couldn't even consider for staying longer. Receiving all the difficulties Harry would face, Harry still firmed to leave and return to where he belongs to, Hogwarts. The way of returning to Hogwarts wasn't as simple as before. On the other hand, a rumor of The Chamber of Secrets had opened spread out in Hogwarts. When Hogwarts seems to be more and more dangerous and threatening, who is the culprit? Or.this is a diversion? In this book, the plot that attracts me most is Harry and his friends, finding clues to open the Chamber of Secrets. I recommend this book to people who likes reading adventuring, detective and fantasy book. | Sign In You will be prompted to sign into your library account on the next page.

![]() ![]() Stanza, our favorite iPhone e-reader application, has not yet been updated for the iPad. Maybe it's coming soon and will be awesome, or maybe the current owner, Amazon, has killed it to reduce competition for its money-making Kindle app. Either way, unless you want to read your e-book collection on a blocky, pixel-doubled screen, you'll have to switch readers. But what about all the books you already have in your Stanza library? Here we show you how to extract you books from Stanza, pretty them up and put them into iBooks on your iPad. Getting books into Stanza is easy. You can beam them across your Wi-Fi network using the companion desktop application or with the clunky but powerful. You can buy them from within the application itself, or you can add online repositories of varying legitimacy. ![]() ![]() ![]() Called 'Stanza Book Restore Tool', from Lexcycle, the developers of Stanza. Point it at your backup folder (on the Mac you'll find it in Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup), choose a destination and hit 'Recover Books'. All the books will be copied to your computer. But what then? Now you have a bunch of EPUB files littering your desktop. You could drag them straight into iTunes, where they'll be imported into your book collection, but the lovely cover artwork you enjoyed in Stanza will be gone, replaced by text on a generic, plain book cover. What you need is the aforementioned Calibre, previously seen on Gadget Lab in the service of adding Instapaper and other newspapers to your Kindle. Download the free Calibre app for Mac or Windows, drag in the EPUB files and then go to work. Your books' title and author data should be cleanly filled out already, but if you right-click on a book (or hit the e key) you can edit the metadata. The easiest way is to let Calibre pull the info down from the internet. Once this is done, click the 'Download cover' button to do just that. Calibre gets it right 99 percent of the time. If you don't like the cover, you can add your own from an image file. The next step is essential if you want to import all the new keywords and cover art along with the books into iTunes. You need to convert the books to EPUB. They're already EPUB files, right? Yes, but right now the newly added metadata isn't baked into the files. Running an export won't create new files, but it will replace the old one with the newly enriched versions. Do this as a bulk action and go make a coffee. Unable To Transfer Ebooks Using Calibre/Stanza Jul 26, 2010. I've had no difficulty transferring ebooks from my Mac to my iPhone using Calibre & Stanza. As Shayne mentioned in his post, a lot of people are asking for help loading their new EPUB format ebooks onto their iPhones and iPod Touches. It's easier than you think. If you're using a Mac, don't get too scared when its fans start to spin like a leaf-blower. I've downloaded Stanza to my iTouch but now I'm trying to download a free book from manbooks.net since they carry the old Tom Corbett books from the 1950s which our 9 year old has gotten hooked on. However, I haven't been able to figure out from either their website instructions or the Stanza information page which format to use that is compatible with iTouch and Stanza. Can anyone give me information on what type of download format to use? Thanks iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.11) Posted on Dec 30, 2008 6:27 PM.

Head First Programming introduces the core concepts of writing computer programs – variables, decisions, loops, functions, and objects – which apply regardless of the programming language. This book offers concrete examples and exercises in the dynamic and versatile Python language to demonstrate and reinforce these concepts.

I've watched a few of her videos before and can't say I was that impressed. Of course she looks fantastic, but her form on some of the exercises is questionable. She also has coeliac disease, so her diet advice is also questionable for most normal people. ![]() She was vilifies gluten and a lot of carbs (even things like rice) in her earlier videos, but pasta, bread etc aren't actually bad for you unless you have an intolerance. It's great she eats a lot of fruit and veg, but her diet advice will probably be very personal to her circumstances. ![]() ![]() And, can I just say - all these guides by people like Meggan Fit Music, GraceFitUK, Sarahs Day etc. None of them are trained PTs or nutritionists (it takes a minimum of a 3 year full time degree to train in nutrition), you'd be better off saving up and spending your money on actual specialists than insta girls. A good PT and a good nutritionist will help you come up with something tailored to you personally rather than a very basic one size fits all guide. I bought it on the release date mostly to support her channel, but if I had seen a preview of the workouts I certainly wouldn't have spend my money on it. You can find everything about her routine in this video and all the workouts are very similar to this one. There isn't much apart from that in the ebook, it's almost a hundred pages long but it's filled with pictures and the font size is gigantic. I find her lovely and her videos really funny and relatable, but I would't advise spending $50 on a training guide for begginers with so few workouts. I mean, she looks great but this is not her 'real' routine, you can see her doing much more difficult exercises in her vlogs, that's what I was expecting in the ebbok. The interplay between Sarah and her 'love' was sweet throughout. My name is Sarah,and that's about it. Author: kissed61 from Canada 15 July 2009. Beginner books.

As a large library, Wattpad makes it easy to find and read books, but only if you're into amateur authors. Most of the app's content is populated by its users, which means it's a mixed bag of hidden gems and stuff you're better off skipping. If you want to read something totally new and different, there aren't many better ways to do it, though. The app offers thousands of new books, many of which you won't find anywhere else. You can log in to the app with your e-mail or sync with your Facebook account. If you do the latter, you'll be able to connect with friends to recommend books and see what they're reading. Either way, you'll be able to leave comments and talk to Wattpad's very active group of users. In some cases, you can even chat directly with the authors of the books. Since the app's content is mostly generated by amateur and unpublished authors, the quality varies greatly. Luckily, the app lets you pick your favorite genres so you can easily find stories that fit your interests. Turning pages isn't as smooth as it would be on an eReader, but you can change the font, page layout, and so many other parts of the app. You can't highlight or annotate your readings, though. However, since the app is all about recreational reading, you probably won't need to. Wattpad introduces an exciting way to find and read books you wouldn't otherwise know about. If you're not afraid to run into a few duds to find some true gems, check out this app. If nothing else, it's a really fun way to connect with other readers.

And that arena has only just begun to heat up; in the next few months, a raft of additional models will appear. One of my readers is alarmed by a precedent being set: 'When the iPod introduced music lovers to the idea of copy protection, a years-long war ensued between consumers and the RIAA (and others). The primary issue was that if I purchased a song for my music player, it would only play on that player; I didn't really own it, per se. Years later, we finally have digital music without copy protection. 'Enter the Kindle and the Nook and copy-protected books. If I purchased a Kindle a year ago, and I have 30 books for it, and now want a Nook. You can guess where this is going. 'Where are the upset people? I never see reports on how e-book copy protection is bad for consumers. Didn't we learn anything from the music industry? Does this lock-in bother you? Am I missing something?' ![]() ![]() The issues involved with copy protection haven't changed. They're the same on e-books as they are with everything else. Namely: * Publishers are terrified of piracy, whether it involves music, movies, software programs or books. Everyone remembers how Napster made music easy to duplicate and freely share. Publishers argue that the music industry was badly hurt, and never really recovered. * Their first reaction, therefore, was to install nasty copy protection of the type you describe, with limits on which brand of player would play a song and how many gadgets you could copy it to. * In time, everyone realized the silliness of this exercise. It inconvenienced only the law-abiders; the software pirates had plenty of simple, convenient ways to duplicate the songs anyway. Dec 17, 2009 'Enter the Kindle and the Nook and copy-protected books. If I purchased a Kindle a year ago, and I have 30 books for it, and now want a Nook. So eventually, the music publishers agreed to let Apple, Amazon and others sell non-protected versions of their songs. (That's a reversal that I still find mind-boggling, although of course I'm thrilled.) All right. So: should e-books be copy protected? As an author myself, I, too, am terrified by the thought of piracy. I can't stand seeing my books, which are the primary source of my income, posted on all these piracy Web sites, available for anyone to download free. When I wrote about my concerns a year ago, my readers took me to task. 'For all you know,' went their counterargument, 'the illegal copies are just advertising for you; people will download them, try them out, then go by the physical book. Either that, or they're being downloaded by people who would not have bought your book anyway. Why don't you try a controlled experiment and see?' Well, it sounded like it could be a very costly experiment. But I agreed. My publisher, O'Reilly, decided to try an experiment, offering one of my Windows books for sale as an unprotected PDF file. Advertisement Does this mean that book publishers should quit copy-protecting their books? Not necessarily. My experiment was intended to track the effect of free electronic copies on the sales of *printed* books. The idea was, once you've tasted the honey of a Pogue book on your screen, you'll want to rush out to buy the paper edition. But if you own an e-book reader, you've already got the book in the desired format! You wouldn't go out and pay for the paper edition; avoiding paper is the whole reason you bought a Kindle in the first place. At the moment, the e-book companies are trying to make the copy-protection thing work, to make it as convenient as possible. They're making your e-books 'playable' on Mac, PC, iPhone, iPod Touch, and multiple e-book readers in your household, for example. But none of that addresses my reader's initial complaint: what if, someday, you want to jump ship from Amazon's reader family to Barnes & Noble's? This is precisely the nightmare scenario that faced iPod owners who wanted to switch to a Zune. (O.K., there's no such person, but you get the point.) In other words, I'm torn right down the middle. On one hand, yes, copy protection hurts consumers. On the other hand, yes, unprotected books at this stage would be easily and wildly pirated -- the barriers to staying ethical would be so low, people would pass around books like they forward e-mail jokes -- and it would cost the book industry dearly. On the other other hand, music files are no longer copy protected, and the music companies haven't gone out of business. Maybe, then, the publishers should try an experiment like mine. Maybe they should release a couple of Kindle or Nook books without copy protection and track the results. Maybe that way, we could bring this discussion out of the hypothetical and into the real world.
