| | | JKR opens the Rubbish Bin section on her site - for false rumors/articles Summary: Article:
If you click the gum wrapper between the notepad and dreggy teacup (right below a recently-placed marble that sits next to the pen cup) on J.K. Rowling's desk on JKRowling.com, you'll find a new section called called Rubbish Bin. As JKR explains it:
"It is inevitable that amongst all the who-knows-how-many Harry Potter/J K Rowling stories that appear in the press there will be some that are less than accurate. This is a great place to tell you the truth about some of the more-fiction-than-fact articles."
This sounds like a great section. She has a handy garbage-o-meter for rating stories (from "STARTING TO SMELL" to "TOXIC") and some of the stories overlap. For instance, the flagrantly untrue "Gilderoy Lockhart is based on J.K. Rowling's ex-husband" appears in both "GARBAGE" and "TOXIC." She also dispels rumors about her husband stopping his work and the origins of Quidditch. UPDATE: Quote: Our readers also inform us that there's a new piece of Potterania to be found if you sneak around. The instructions to various bits are below if you don't want to be spoiled.
If you break the pen on the left in the Rubbish Bin, a new hint about which three items you need for Potterania appears. The items are eggs (which are in the Rubbish Bin section), grass (which is in the Extra Stuff section by the eraser and pen after Peeves breezes through) and marbles (which are on the fan site page; you have to move the top medal box to the side).
Wait on the main page until the Doxy arrives, then click the marble when it's glowing. Pages from Dragon Breeding for Pleasure and Profit will be the reward.
Also take note that, "when Peeves comes in the Rubbish section he moves aside a gum wrapper revealing a 12 digit number." (Thanks Dani!) The number is upside down and hard to read but readers have been interpreting it as 058040 754422 or 058249 754422, and various others. TLC |

It doesn't say anything new... it's just the same page placed upside down; you can see that "Harry" is turned the other way.
I also wanna know where that feather is, for the potion in the "extras" section... maybe I'm behind on it, I dunno... I got the rest of the other stuff, though, thanx to everybody | |

hey people... thanks to all of you I have most of the ingrediants.
But can you guys answer a couple questions I have?
1) Where is the feather?
2) What do you recieve when you find the hairs/straws? Because I think I got them , but I can't remember!
3) What happens when you gather all of the ingrediants for a potion?
Thanx!

I was just in the Extra Stuff area of the site when i happened to see a piece of paper on the bulliten board that had writting circled in red.......the only word you can read are Blood Prince, the first word[s] are cut off by another piece of paper......is this a recent edition to the many notes on the bulliten board or is it just me? And if this isnt new what other secrets are hidden of the many scraps of paper there....

When you gather all the ingredients you get a drawing of... Headless Nick
Where to find them? In the Extra Stuff Room, Fan Sites Room, and Rubbish Bin
The numbers are: PEEVES (just look at the letters in the dial-pad)

what we have in the scrapbook so far:
ancient drawings (page 2)
very early page of the philosopher's stone
ancient drawings (page 3)
ancient drawings (page 1)
ancient drawings (page 4)
page of doodlings (page 2)
first typed manuscript of philosopher's stone
ok, so since there's a page 2 of doodlings, there has to be a page one. has anyone found it?
