Snape harry potter actor1/14/2024 ![]() In addition, Harry later named his second son Albus Severus Potter in honour of Dumbledore and Severus, both of whom were an inspiration in Harry's life after the Battle of Hogwarts. Īfter Snape's death, Harry Potter ensured that his portrait remained at Hogwarts, honouring him as a hero, despite their significant personal differences. Snape later participated in the Battle of Hogwarts but was murdered by Lord Voldemort who mistakenly believed that Snape was the master of the Elder Wand (an immensely strong and powerful wand that Voldemort deeply desired, as well as one of the Deathly Hallows) when in reality, Harry Potter was the master of the Elder Wand, because Draco Malfoy had disarmed Dumbledore on the night of Dumbledore's death on top of the Astronomy Tower, and Harry had disarmed Draco at Malfoy Manor. Before Dumbledore's death, Snape promised to protect the students of Hogwarts from the Death Eaters, who would inevitably take control of the Ministry of Magic as well as the school. The relationship between Dumbledore and Snape would be one of unusually strong loyalty, so much so that Snape agreed to kill Dumbledore upon the latter's own request. When he died, it was revealed that his deep strong love for Lily Evans caused him to redeem himself, joining Dumbledore's cause for her protection (and, after her death, that of her son) from Lord Voldemort. Despite Snape killing Dumbledore, it is learned that they had a special agreement for him to do so. With tremendous difficulty, Snape prevented Lord Voldemort from learning the truth about his loyalties.ĭespite the opinions of most others including Harry during his early life, Albus Dumbledore trusted Snape for reasons that were kept between them both until their deaths. Shortly before Lily Evans was murdered by Lord Voldemort, Snape changed sides and became a member of the Order of the Phoenix as well as a double agent during the Second Wizarding War. Voldemort agreed, then did not follow through on this promise. Once Lord Voldemort decided to target the Potters over the Longbottoms, Snape begged Voldemort to at least spare Lily. This part of the prophecy could have applied to either Harry Potter or Neville Longbottom, who was also born at the end of July 1980 to parents who were members of the Order. Īs an active Death Eater, one of Snape's biggest contributions was letting Lord Voldemort know about the prophecy Sybill Trelawney made to Dumbledore. However, Horace did not actually have many hopes for Severus's future, as his photograph was kept behind many others. ![]() Horace Slughorn even kept a picture of him as a student, clutching his copy of Advanced Potion-Making. Severus was made a member of the Slug Club presumably because of his talent in Potion-making. In a misguided attempt to win back Lily's affections, Snape joined the Death Eaters along with a group of his fellow Slytherins. This put his friendship with Lily, a Muggle-born, under great strain until it was eventually broken in their fifth year. Snape became involved with the bullies in Slytherin House, many of whom were pure-blood supremacists. Snape, when young, developed a passion for the Dark Arts, which increased as his desire for revenge against his bullies grew stronger. This led him to be irritable towards James's son Harry when he was a professor. Severus became the immediate enemy of James Potter and Sirius Black and was a frequent victim of their bullying. This put him in the same year as Lily but unfortunately for him she was sorted into Gryffindor House. Severus started at Hogwarts with Lily in 1971, where he was sorted into Slytherin House. He fell deeply in love with Lily upon their meeting and became a close friend of hers. He met Lily and Petunia Evans when he was nine. The only child of Muggle Tobias Snape and witch Eileen Snape (née Prince), Severus was raised in the Muggle dwelling of Spinner's End, which was in close proximity to the home of the Evans family, though in a poorer area. His double life played an extremely important role in both of the Wizarding Wars against Voldemort. ![]() Professor Severus Snape ( 9 January 1960 – ) was an English half-blood wizard serving as Potions Master (1981-1996), Head of Slytherin House (1981-1997), Defence Against the Dark Arts professor (1996-1997), and Headmaster (1997-1998) of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as well as a member of the Order of the Phoenix and a Death Eater. Now you tell me you have been raising him like a pig for slaughter -" - Snape regarding the planned fate of Harry Potter Everything was supposed to be to keep Lily Potter’s son safe. " I have spied for you and lied for you, put myself in mortal danger for you.

Thred up returns1/13/2024 I just cannot believe they are all being donated, it just defies common sense. I don't want to think it but I really feel that some reseller or store in their area has an agreement with them to purchase the rejected items or they have a different name on ebay and are selling them. I am very curious what happens to all the beautiful, very sellable clothes that were deemed "not worthy" when I see some of the crap that they have up for sale. Very disappointed with second experience will not send any additional items. ![]() I sent 2 more bags (approximately 40 items each) same caliber of items and received $17.00 on one bag and I think it was $23 on the other, they kept 3 items out of each bag for consignment I think one of those 6 sold and my cut was like $9.00. One of these bags had returns shipping on it and one items was missing when I got it back, they did after a few emails back and forth reimburse me for it because I coincidentally had a picture of the missing item. ![]() They kept a couple of pieces for consignment and one or 2 of those sold but the majority never sold. I had a pretty good first experience with sending 2 bags (approximately 40 items each) and making about $150 on 2 bags all mid range brands, some bread and butter type and some a little better than that. If I were to decline, it would only be $4.95 to have everything sent back. I also have/had the option to accept or decline their offer. Unaccepted category item from Hollister - unaccepted categoryĮvery single thing that I sent them is listed. The offer is $111.25 store credit, or $89 direct deposit to paypalĮlevenses by Anthropologie skirt - staining It contained items that had been relisted numerous times or something that I simply knew would NOT sell on eBay for even $5: I have not accepted or declined their offer yet. Top from unaccepted brand - unaccepted brand LikeTwice just processed 2 bags this week. I'm being very very careful with them and am probably only going to use them for turds from here on out.Īlso, I am one of the ones who, like others, has sent the same items more than once and had them accepted on the 2nd go-around. I also think it is obnoxious the way they cherry pick and then price the items so low initially. Just because they say they can do it on their website doesn't mean it is legal. I still send stuff but I carefully document what I am sending, I take the return assurance every time and you'd better believe if they tried to keep any of my high end items without paying me I'd be the first to sue them. Eventually I got the full $24.99 out of them but I had to fight for it and those jeans would have fetched at least $40 if I had sold them myself even on ebay. They tried to sell my Marc Jacobs Love Story bag (original retail in the $800 range) for $32 with a suggested retail of $78 but I reclaimed it in time, while tons of other MJ that is less popular is WAAAY overpriced on the site and I had a big fight with them because they gave me $3 for a pair of jeans that should have been on consignment because they started the listing at 24.99. I got the Gucci back while they kept a bunch of other stuff that was like Merona & Gap. I sent them a NWT Gucci bag along with a bunch of other mixed items. I think they are selling them elsewhere, JMO, of course, I won't be dealing with them again. Every single return bag I've gotten has been missing at least one thing. ![]() I emailed them asking if they have the jacket, since they didn't accept it. Why would that be a secret?įrom my last bag, I am missing a suit jacket although I got the pants back. People were asking where they donate the unaccepted stuff to, and the rep would not give a straight answer. Not sure if it was thredup because it was xxxxxxx'd out. Someone said they saw their unaccepted item listed on ebay by someone from the same vicinity. That's BS, in my opinion.Īlso TONS of people who didn't get return assurance saying they accepted their worn items for pennies, and did not accept their better items so they got them for free. The rep acknowledged this and said that policy is on their site somewhere. Several people said they sent high end stuff and requested return assurance, but ThredUp accepted NOTHING, therefore there were no funds to deduct the return shipping from - so they refused to send any of it back. Just for the heck of it, I was reading the ThredUp BBB complaints last night and it is starting to seem a bit shady. I've noticed on my last couple bags that they kept the turds and returned my better stuff, and I've seen other boardies say the same.

When an inmate arrives in jail they are put together in a large holding cell with other inmates in the intake.

Trustees are inmates who work in the jail as cooks, as orderlies for the staff, in the laundry or in the commissary. If there is no release, the inmate must wait here at the jail for their court appearance as a guest of the County, getting a bed and three square meals. Some are released after putting up bail, are released to a pretrial services caseload, are placed under supervision by a probation agency, or are released on their own recognizance with an agreement to appear in court.

Muzzle for small dogs petco1/12/2024 ![]() ![]() (They're custom, and the turnaround time on orders is something like 6-8 weeks. I ended up getting a muzzle from a friend who'd ordered through Trust Your Dog Muzzle. With my larger dog (ACD/coonhound mix, so a medium size dog overall), I could just not get the Baskerville to fit her correctly. For the $10 it cost us a few years ago (probably $15 now), I found this a really good place to start with muzzles. My little dog uses a Baskerville ultra because it's an off-the-rack type (readily available at my Petco), happens to fit him well, and has some degree of shape-ability (like another commenter said, you can put them in hot/boiling water to adjust the shape some, though I did not have to do this with the little dog's muzzle). ![]() Of course, the dogs should still be under direct supervision with them on (like on a leash when around strangers) but the muzzles still allow dogs to pant, drink water and accept treats as needed. We try not to put it on at the last minute or in high-stress situations because we don't want to associate it with negative experiences (or at least the action of putting it on) - should not be as a punishment, it should be used as a tool.Įdit: I should say - there are great resources online for tips/tricks to help training dogs to wear baskerville muzzles. I will say that at first it made her nervous, but now she knows that when it's on she's "working" and her focus is on us. We spent a few minutes each day, typically twice a day, having her eat treats from our hand while holding the muzzle so that she became desensitized to the feeling, then holding it so she would put her face in, then having her wear it around her neck (not on her face) then completed the entire thing with it on and not pawing at it, focusing on us, and walking towards us across the room without trying to thrash and paw. I should say that I spent close to a month (or more) getting her used to it, wearing it, and practicing with it outside. I really like it and take it with me everywhere my dog goes just in case we run into larger crowds or dogs. Mine also came with a strap that went between my dog's eyes (and between her ears) and a clasp that has a "lock" function so little hands cannot unlock it. You can put them into some boiling water to better "mould" them to the shape of your dog's snout and they're made of a tougher polymer so relatively lightweight and easy to use. If you report a comment, please also message the mods so that we don't miss it.ĭepending on the shape of her face - a baskerville muzzle.
