Pressure boosting system as a fully automatic compact unit for fire fighting purposes in accordance with EN 12845.
Consisting of a pump with horizontal base frame - EN 733 - with spacer coupling, diesel motor and diaphragm pressure vessel (capacity: 20 l) and one switch cabinet, fixed to a robust support structure.
Model SC-Fire D for the diesel motor, equipped with Smart Controller, solid construction made of special profiled parts with cut-outs for forklift trucks and hooks to ensure trouble-free, safe transportation. Height-adjustable bracket for the outlet manifold and special base plate for the diesel motor which reduces the transfer of vibrations considerably and increases the reliability and service life.
A circuit with dual pressure switch, pressure gauge, non-return valve, valve (secured from use by unauthorised personnel) for the main pump for automatic start. The cables are concealed in the construction and protected against bumps and cuts. Equipped with a diaphragm installed directly on the main pump housing as standard, to prevent overheating in the event of zero flow.
Fuel tank with level sensor and sufficient volume for six hours of autonomous operation, as well as 2 batteries on the base frame and battery charging units on the SC-Fire switch cabinet.
Independent anti-vibration base frame for the diesel motor pump.
SC-Fire D switchgear for fire extinguishing systems according to EN 12845.
Switchgear integrated in a sheet metal enclosure in accordance with protection class IP54.
Very high quality control system and particularly easy operation thanks to SC Fire control, with symbol-based LC display, simple user interface with clear menu layout, pressure and rotary switches for quick adjustment of parameters. Communicative controller for monitoring system operation.
The system has been mounted on the base frame with wires and pipes are ready for connection.
Inflow pressure:
The maximum inlet pressure must be taken into account when designing the system configuration (see Technical data). The maximum permissible inlet pressure is calculated from the maximum operating pressure of the system minus the maximum pumping head of the pump at Q = 0. For sprinkler systems in accordance with EN 12845, the water pressure should not exceed 12 bar. In sprinkler systems with a pronounced slope, in which the difference in height between the highest and lowest sprinkler is more than 45 m, the water pressure can be higher than 12 bar at the pump outlet or in the piping, provided that all of the system components are designed for this pressure level.
Installation of the pressure boosting pump under suction conditions.
For the main pump, it is necessary to install a supply tank with connection to the discharge pipe above the pump.
Volume flow
Up to 750 m³/h (208 l/s) system configuration for the main pump.

Function description:
Wilo SC-Fire D control devices can be used to control pumps with a diesel motor, sensors for pump management and the level of information. The SC-unit is controlled via a microprocessor with Soft PLC. It is used to control and regulate the necessary functions of pressure boosting systems for fire fighting in accordance with EN 12845 for test purposes and operation of the sprinkler system.
The operating logic for the fire extinguishing unit is based on the cascade calibration of the pressure switches for starting the pump.
If a large amount of water is requested due to the opening of one or more circuits or due to a defective sprinkler, the pressure in the system decreases. The SC-Fire controller then initiates a startup of the diesel motor pump. As soon as the sprinkler circuit or gate valve via which the sprinkler heads are supplied is closed, holding pressure (resting pressure) is built up in the system. The stop buttons on the SC-Fire must then be actuated to stop the pump.
Additional information:
A significant advantage offered by the Smart Controller SC-Fire is the user friendliness of the tried and tested Wilo red-button technology. At the heart of the SC is the Soft PLC programmable logic controller, which is based exclusively on Wilo's wealth of experience. All programming is implemented internally. These next generation control devices can therefore be used flexibly and fulfil customer-specific requirements in all markets.

Usually when Brittany Berry launches a 3-pointer, it barely moves the net with a graceful swish.
But sometimes, it is nice to get some help.
Berry banked a 3 and had another roll in off the rim on her way to a season-high 20 points, leading the Hope College women's basketball team to a 70-58 win over Olivet College on Wednesday at DeVos Fieldhouse.
"It is always nice, as long as the ball goes in � no matter how it happens," Berry said.
Of course, Berry swished a couple, too, going 4-for-8 from 3-point range.
More importantly, each 3 came at a key moment for the Flying Dutch, ranked No. 2 by the NCAA Division III coaches and No. 4 by d3hoops.com, who improved to 17-0 and 9-0 in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association.
Berry's first 3 tied the game 15-15 midway through the first half. Her second banked in with 24 seconds to go, giving Hope a 27-26 halftime lead.
Berry's third 3 pushed the Flying Dutch lead to 27-33 with 16 minutes to go and the last one got the roll to put Hope up 46-38 and put the game out of reach.
The senior guard was three points away from her career high, which she set at Trine last year. Berry also had two 20-point games in the NCAA tournament.
"We came out and went to our offense and we executed," Berry said. "We ran well in transition and our posts set a lot of good screens, and that opened up a lot of outside shots."
Olivet, ranked No. 24 by d3hoops.com, dropped to 16-3 and 8-2 in the MIAA. Both league losses for the second-place Comets came to first-place Hope.
"We held them to the same number of points. We just didn't score the same way," Hope coach Brian Morehouse said. "We started going back to our nuts and bolts and that gave us some good looks."
In the first matchup, Hope rolled to an 82-57 wing at Olivet on Nov. 26.
"We were really young, just 3-4 games into the season. We have had a lot of growth," Olivet coach Nicole Burford said. "We had a little bit more mental toughness. We realized we needed to defend better and take pride in our defense. The first game, we didn't defend. They pretty much took what they wanted. We can't give a team like Hope more offensive opportunities. They had 20 offensive rebounds and we had a few too many turnovers."
Olivet cut Hope's lead to 53-49 with 4:49 to go, but senior guards Megan Kelley and Anna Kaufmann each hit multiple baskets in transition to push the Hope lead back to double digits.
Kaufmann and sophomore forward Maura McAfee each finished with 12 points. McAfee added 11 rebounds and five steals. Kelley had 11 points, five rebounds and two steals. Freshman point guard Angelique Gaddy had seven points, fiver rebounds and two steals. Junior forward Hannah Doell had six points and six rebounds and two steals.
"Our seniors played like it was a big game," Morehouse said. "They prepared like it was a big game. They brought it home for us down the stretch."
Olivet's Stefanie Lang � the leading scorer in the MIAA at 20.7 ppg � had 16 points and 11 rebounds. Chelsea Ciba had 7 points, Carli Reid added 13 and Kelsey Campbell had 12 points and six assists, though she had 12 turnovers.
"They are a tough team and are some tough matchups," Kelley said.
Next up is another tough matchup Saturday against rival Calvin.

I hear that word and I don't think of a car dealership or a mortgage.
I think of how I represent in my actions.
In lindy hop there is a difference between a dancer who can own it and one who can't. When you own your movement your intention is clear and present.
If you don't own it you can have the flashiest trick but you won't win the crowd the way a dancer who merely walks but owns every step.
I struggled for a very long time understanding ownership in my own life. As someone quite capable in most of my pursuits I didn't need to take responsibility and represent in my actions. Moderate success (which was passable) came to me. Yet I never truly excelled or connected with what I did.
I believed I didn't need to invest the effort to do it right.
I lacked ownership
At some point I had to take accountability, responsibility and ultimately ownership of my actions or accept a life of mediocrity.
Claim the events of your life! When you posses all you have been and done, you are fierce with reality.
Florida Scott-Maxwell
Recently this has been most evident in my financial life. I talked about saving or watching where my money went but until I finally held myself accountable and took ownership of my finances I struggled with overdrafts, bounced checks, and overspending.
The minute I took ownership of my financial life by creating a balance sheet for all of my accounts in which I recorded every cent I spent whether cash, credit or debit and every one I earned, my financial life turned upside down (or right side up really).
I almost immediately stopped overdrafting.
I put money into an ING Direct savings account (which I don't touch).
I paid down my credit card debt (it is my goal by the end of 2009 to be consumer debt free).
Most importantly:
I felt empowered.
Taking ownership of my finances had given me power and confidence over a section of my life that always made me feel uncomfortable.
Become fierce with reality.
Power is in representing in your actions. When you put yourself forward, put your whole self forward. Leave nothing in question when you take an action.
Go out and own it!

There are a lot of discussion as to whether children should be given homework or not. Is it enough for children having time to study at school or needing additional time in home for study after school time?
Some people claim that children do enough work in school already. They also argue that children have their hobbies which they want to do after school, such as sport or music. A further point they make is that a lot of homeworks are pointless and does not help the children learn at all.
However, there are also strong arguments against this point of view. Parents and teachers argue that it is important to find out whether children can work on their own without the support from the teacher. They say that the evening is a good time for children to sit down and think about what they have learned in school.
Furthermore they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done. It makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing task which do not need the teacher support.
I think, on balance, that some homework is good idea but that should only given at the weekend when children have more time.

will hear a report of developments
and uses of radioactive dating.
Currently with Lamont Geologi-cal
Observatory, Dr. Kulp is an ex-pert
on the radiochemistry method
of dating archaeological finds and
in tracing elements. He has been
a professor at Columbia univer-sity
since 1952, where he has been
teaching since 1947 in geology
and chemistry. In addition to the
geochemistry of tracing elements,
he has worked on studies in nu-clear
geophysics, age determinate
of geological materials, chemis-try
and structure of clay miner-als,
differential thermal analysis,
absorption phenomena, and geo-chemistry
of ore deposits.
Dr. Kulp received his B.S. de-gree
from Wheaton college in
1942, his M.S. from Ohio State,
and his M.A. and PhD. in chem-istry
from Princeton.
President Carl Lundquist an-nounced
in a recent chapel that
tuition for the school year 1960-61
is being raised 10 percent, or $50
per student. He had previously
made the announcement at the
board of education meeting and the
student senate-advisory admini-strative
council meeting.
This increase results from the
pressures of inflation upon our
over-all program and the feeling
that somewhat regular smaller in-creases
in tuition is a better ap-proach
than occasional substantial
boosts. It was pointed out that the

"The Barretts of Wimpole
Street," a play by Rudolph Besier,
will be presented Friday and Sat-urday,
April 29 and 30 at 8 p.m.
in the Bethel fieldhouse by the
Drama club and the Royal Players.
The play depicts the love story of
Elizabeth Barrett and Robert
Browning, immortalized in their
poetry. To be featured at the play
is a chamber orchestra composed
of the Bethel string ensemble
which will provide a musical back-ground.
The play casts Inez Welch as
Elizabeth Barrett and Wayne Kin-dall
as her domineering father.
Tom Johnson will play the role of
Robert Browning. Other parts in-clude
Maureen Herou as Arabel;
Joanne Heckman, Henrietta; Mar-garet
Hiebert, Wilson; Elsie Tutt,
Bella; T. Harrison Bryant, Dr.
Chambers, Henry Bevan, and Sep-timus;
Leroy Hansen, Dr. Ford-
Waterlow and Octavius; and
Glenn Rymer, Captain Cook and
This three-act comedy tells the
heart-warming story of the impet-uous
and vibrant Browning win-ning
the hand of the bed-ridden
Miss Barrett, over the strenuous
objections of her father, a Bible
quoting, inflexible tyrant. Richard
Curtis, associate professor of
speech, and Gerry Laidlaw, college
junior, are directing the play.

estimated cost of operating the
same program ten years hence
would be fifty per cent greater
than the present cost, and the cur-rent
raise in tuition is in consid-eration
of this inflationary trend.
It was further mentioned that
Bethel's tuition costs still remain
considerably below comparable
schools in the area and other ev-angelical
liberal arts institutions.
With an estimated 500 full-time
students, this would produce about
$25,000. A good share of this im-mediately
goes back into scholar-ships
for the students.

Barrett Reviews `Barretts .. 7
by Charles Brown
I am off on a new crusade. This
time I have decided to promote
slower reading. Realizing the re-actionary
quality of this in the
face of the oft-repeated demand
that students read rapidly, I must
make my defense solid.

Alice Huffman,
Bodien President
by Lewis Barrett
Seldom is pure love, even in a
Victorian setting, selected by the
poet. Rarer still are poets who
have experienced it. Yet one of the
greatest of romances was between
two poets — Elizabeth Moulton -
Barrett and Robert Browning—in
Victorian England.
The enigma is resolved in the
plot of "The Barretts of Wimpole
Street." Elizabeth, courted secretly
by Robert because of a father who
refuses to let his three daughters
marry, is finally frightened by the
father into eloping with her poet
to Italy. Edward Moulton-Barrett,
60, would rather see his daughters
dead than married. Elizabeth, an
invalid from a childhood spinal
injury, wants to live and be loved,
and through Robert's devotion and
encouragement she regains fair
This unique father - daughter -
suitor triangle brings together in
the Bethel performance an unu-sually
well-chosen cast of Wayne
Kindall (as Barrett), Inez Welch
(Elizabeth), and Tom Johnson

The exhibitional prints of Dolf
Reiser are being displayed in the
student center through May 9.
Mr. Rieser was born in 1898 at
King William's Town, South Af-rica.
This location is on the edge
of the rich area of Bushman rock
paintings. As a youth these had a
deep impression on him so that
even now much of his work shows
their influence.
Rieser's formal education was
primarily scientific; he has a doc-torate
in science from the Univer-sity
of Lausanne. He spent several
years at the Hans Hoffman school
at Munich as well as a number of
art schools in Paris.
Although Rieser's early artistic
activities started in Germany at
the time of the Expressionist
movement, it was not until he set-tled
in Paris that his true devel-opment
began. This can, in large
measure, be attributed to Joseph
Hecht, the founder and master of
modern engraving. Hecht demon-strated
to Rieser that engraving
was something more than a techni-cal
discipline. By 1939 Rieser had
not only become a master of the
recognized dramatist such as Ru-dolph
Besier, could have created
nothing short of a masterpiece
with such potential drama. A more
sensitive interpreter would not
have made Barrett such a lecher-ous
monster. Jeannette Mark's
"The Family of the Barrett" pre-sents
a much truer picture of Eli-zabeth's
sire. Actually Moulton -
Barrett gives Elizabeth the stub-born
qualities which made her
cling to life for 30 years, during
which she seldom left her room at
50 Wimpole street. Barrett's at-tachment
to the daughters, and
particularly Elizabeth, is the re-sult
of the loss of his wife.
Besier's play, which enshrined
Elizabeth as a poet and thoroughly
condemned a cruel Victorian fa-ther,
deals only with the Browning-
Barrett courtship from the time
Robert first called on his future
wife on May 20, 1845. But Brown-ing
had courted Elizabeth by mail
and by poetry since 1841. She did-n't
like to meet strangers.
But from her poem "Lady Geral-dine's
Courtship," Elizabeth let
slip her secret admiration for Ro-bert
in the line "from Browning
art, but was exhibiting with the
Surindependants, Atelier 17 and
the Anglo-American Group, also
selling prints to leading galleries
and institutions in Europe and the
Since about 1952, Rieser has
made some experiments which can
have only beneficial results for the
engraver's art. Initially, there are
his large plaster prints (line and
color) which when mounted on
fabric-covered facia boards have
the appeal of the extremely low
bas-reliefs of the Quattrocento.
Above all Dolf Rieser is a paint-er-
engraver—that is, his work in
color is as important as his work
on metal, and the latter gains, as
it must, from his practice in a
medium where color predominates.
He has had one-man shows in
London, Paris and Spain; exhibited
extensively in group shows in Eur-ope
and the United States, and his
prints have been acquired by the
Victoria and Albert Museum, the
Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris; the
National Gallery Rosenwald col-lection,
and other public collections
some 'Pomegranate,' which, if cut
deep down the middle, shows a
heart within blood—tinctured, of a
veined humanity." Their letters
were coy. Neither could overlook
the fact that this courtship was
secondary to poetry. Robert in his
first letter had to get emotional,
however, by writing "I do, as I
say, love these books (Elizabeth's
poetry) with all my heart—and I
love you too." A year later—four
years from their first awareness
of each other—Elizabeth let Robert
call at her home.
In the drama the love affair
shares the stage with the court-ships
of Henrietta and Captain
Cook, and Cousin Bella and Henry
Bevan, an intellectual. Barrett at-tempts
to enforce his opinion that
"love is the work of the Devil." He
even arranges to move the family
into the country where Captain
Cook and Browning cannot get to
his daughters so conveniently. This
authoritarian, 60-year-old, trifling
father pathetically sought revenge
after Elizabeth eloped by seeking
to kill Flush, her dog. The father
never mentioned Elizabeth's name
after the elopement.
Art Lecturer
Explains Forms
Bethel art enthusiasts were re-cently
treated to an illustrated lec-ture
on some of the concepts be-hind
abstract expressionism given
by Sam Hunter, acting director of
the Minneapolis School of Art.
Following the lecture, a reception
was held for Mr. Hunter and Cam-eron
Booth, a modern artist whose
paintings were on display in the
student center and the faculty
Mr. Hunter, art critic, lecturer,
author, editor, and teacher, admit-ted
that modern expressions of art
often left the ordinary person "be-wildered,
puzzled and quite con-fused."
In he course of his lecture,
he endeavored to explain some of
the difficulty and seeming ob-scurity
of current art forms.
A good deal of modern painting
is an attack on contemporary civ-ilization—
a culture of "things"—
and endeavors to reflect freedom
in a conformist world, while also
reflecting anxiety for the future.
In the past, artists were involved
with only a pictorial concept, not
sociological or psychological ideas
at all. Twentieth century art re-flects
a violent transition period
and the artist tries to produce
philosophical depth perception of
contemporary existence and values.
Sometimes the art seems to mirror
only the negative aspects of life,
but the artist is striving to ex-press
the fear and confused feel-ings
of modern times.
The most prevalent modern con-cept
Mr. Hunter emphasized is
that there is a sense of adventure
in abstract expressionism which is
accompanied by an expanding sense
of reality. The artist is willing to
take more chances in endeavoring
to express the sense in nature.
Chaos is apparent in many modern
works, but, explained Mr. Hunter,
it is a "new kind of disorder with
order" that gets closer to basic
origins. The role of man in the uni-verse
seems smaller and a personal
sense of self is radically changed.

Duties and Purposes
Of CLARION Defined
In light of the fact that we are citizens of a free and democratic
society, we would like to state what we believe to be the purposes and
duties of the student press.
A free and vigorous press is essential to a democratic society; and
that freedom of expression and debate is basic to the effectiveness of
an educational community such as ours in the democratic society in which
we live.
It is the duty and aim of this press to develop and serve this com-munity
and to cultivate freedom of expression here as we believe to be
just and fitting within our individual concepts of newspaper ethics.
In order that the aims and obligations of the CLARION might be
fully achieved, it must be independent of all forms of external censor-ship.
We have a profound obligation to exercise all of our rights in a
responsible fashion, with rigorous dedication to the objective and com-plete
presentation of the news. In all fairness to you, the reader, we
feel that it should be revealed that presently the editor can be identi-fied
with the liberal side of several issues, particularly politics. We
shall endeavor to present all news fairly and try to save our prejudices
and biases for the editorial page.
Within the legal restrictions of civil and criminal laws against
libel, pornography or indecency; with consideration for the background
of Bethel college and the Baptist General conference and that for which
they stand, and within the limits of our consciences, the CLARION shall
be free from control of the student senate, administration, faculty and
the Conference churches.
The CLARION should be free from all types of direct or indirect
financial pressure, reprisal or threat thereof from the student senate,
faculty or administrative authorities.
The press should be free to present articles concerning controversial
matters and to comment freely providing a forum for free expression.
The CLARION must have free access to information necessary for
understanding all facets of issues affecting the Bethel community in
order to properly perform its function of keeping our community aware
of our progress, problems, and role.
We shall strive to exercise these rights and responsibilities with full
regard for accepted standards of journalism and with due regard for
what we consider the well being of every segment of our educational
community. — L E B

Opening Day
For Baseball
Brings Loss
by Dan Anderson
Opening day for the Royal base-ball
team came on Thursday, April
21, but it turned out to have a sad
ending as Bethel was edged 4-3
by the Hamline Pipers.
A small band of Bethel fans
watched Hamline's Paul Wilkie
and Ned Norsted combine efforts
and hurl a masterful three-hitter,
while striking out twelve and walk-ing
six. Mery Sheplee went the
distance for Bethel and took the
loss. Even though the losing
pitcher, Sheplee pitched a fine
game allowing only seven hits,
striking out six and walking seven.
Four of these walks came in the
shaky fourth inning when Ham-line
scored three of their four
runs and sent nine batters to the
Al Littler and Al Penner slash-ed
back-to-back singles and both
later came around to score in
Bethel's half of the fourth.
Bethel's other hit came in the fifth,
when Al Littler rapped out his
second single of the day.
The one bright spot in Bethel's
loss was their flawless fielding.
The only error of the game, in
fact, came in the top of the fourth
when Hamline's third baseman, Ed
Mathias threw wide to first on
Ken Baird's sharp grounder.
Bethel took on Doctor Martin
Luther College in the first game
of a scheduled double header on
Saturday, April 23, and found
themselves on the short end of a
lopsided 12-1 score.
The Royal's found themselves
again held to only three singles as
Doctor Martin Luther's Frank
Hover handed them their second
straight setback of the season.
Hover went the distance for the
win, striking out six and walking
four. John Redin went the rout
for the Royals and took the loss,
handing out ten walks, six srtike-outs,
and allowing only five earned
runs. The Bethel defense-so good
against Hamline-completely fell
apart, and in the space of four
errors, allowed seven unearned
runs to scamper across the plate.
The nightcap of the programmed
twin-bill was cancelled due to
darkness and rain.
Tuesday, April 26, saw Bethel
again low-this time 7-6 in ten
innings to Concordia college. Tang
Wynia and Al Penner had three
hits apiece . . . while Bethel made
nine fielding errors behind Mery
Sheplee, who went the distance
for his second loss.
The Bethel cindermen opened the
outdoor track season at St. Thomas
college in a quadrangular meet. St.
Thomas won the meet with 75
points, followed by Augsburg with
56 and one half and Gustavus Adol-phus
with 44 and one half. The
Royals were able to muster 26
Although beaten, Bethel showed
improvement throughout; but it

was that of no depth. Veteran

The Falcons blazed the trail with
Ralph Ryan leading the pack by a
score of 75, five strokes under par
for the 18 hole course. Jerry Stern
and Jim Hallen of River Falls
held down the second and third
positions with scores of 77 and

How to Aerate a Compost Pile Using Perforated PVC Pipe
By: Tricia Craven Worley
When making compost for your garden from leaves and other yard debris, it's important that the compost pile is aerated so the material will break down.
While compost piles are usually turned with a pitchfork, pieces of perforated PVC pipe can also be inserted into the pile to provide oxygen to the center of the pile. Watch this video to find out more.

Video Transcript
Danny Lipford: That's a nice out of the way spot for a compost pile.
Tricia Craven Worley: Well, you know Danny, this compost pile happened just by accident.
Danny: Oh, really?
Tricia: Yeah. One time I had just a lot of leaves, and I didn't want to put them all in my compost bin, so I just throw them over here.
Danny: It seems perfect and everything, I doubt you'd want to put any of the household waste in there though.
Tricia: Well, actually by choice, I just put nothing but leaves here and the leaves and then a little bit of dirt that is attached to them it's amazing what kind of really, really rich loam it's created over the years.
Danny: What's the deal with the drainage pipe? You got a drainage problem?
Tricia: Well, actually this is a really good tip. You know one of the main components of making a compost pile healthy is aeration. And this is just a PVC pipe that I bought at a home store. And, as you can see, it has these little perforated holes, and those go . . . there two rows of them, and they go all the way the length of this wall. And so it allows a little bit more air to come in through this hole that I won't block up.
Danny: I see. I guess the wire fence over there helps in that way too.
Tricia: Yes. This is great and you know it was one of those incidental things I didn't know how good it would be, and this is so we'll have cross ventilation here. And you know, because the pipe is so easy to move, you can see that if I chose to allow the pile to get higher I could certainly put in another pipe.
Danny: Well, you have plenty of room for a little more debris. I'll give you a hand.
Tricia: Okay.

I like getting achievements; they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. And I sure wouldn't mind a flashy new proto-drake mount. A few weeks ago I started racking up achievements for Glory of the Hero and although I haven't gotten many new ones lately, I did put together a list of all the achievements needed. I am about halfway through it and one of these days I'll try to get a solid group together and knock out a whole bunch more.
Utgarde Keep
On the Rocks – This one is pretty basic; just ignore the ice tombs when they happen. Getting this one done right relies a lot on the healer being pro. As long as everyone is topped off, nobody will get insta-gibbed by the tomb. Bringing a ton of DPS helps because the faster the boss is dead, the fewer tombs you have to deal with. (Bringing a ton of dps and just plain brute forcing your way through things is going to be a pretty common theme)
Intense Cold – Clearing the debuff is easy enough most of the time, you just keep jumping up and down like a fool. But, when the boss uses frost nova, you can't clear the debuff with ease anymore. But, you can break the nova by intervening your healer or a ranged dps or by using a pvp trinket or a free action potion and depending on what class the healer is, they may be able to just dispel you. This is an individual achievement; you can get it even if other people in your group get more than 2 stacks.
Split Personality – This one is pretty straight forward; it's all about DPS control. I personally like my groups to focus fire them each to about 15% then aoe them down together. Try to keep the arcane mob silenced at the end or she might stun the group and/or polymorph someone at the last second and screw things up.
Chaos Theory – We tried to brute force this one like On the Rocks and it wasn't pretty. The next time we actually had a plan. We cleared all the trash near the platform where the boss was so that we had tons of room to move around. On the pull, I dragged the boss all the way to the far side of his platform while DPS put on the hurt. When he went immune, we all ran off of his platform so the group was out of range of the lightning and out of prox aggro range of the new spawns. When the phase ended, the boss and all the spawns come running towards the group who are on the next platform and the all get bottlenecked on the ramp between the platforms, perfect to grab all the adds with a tclap/shockwave while the DPS hit them with hard aoe. Once the adds were dealt with, DPS was back on the boss until the next rift phase and we all ran away again. Rinse and repeat.
Watch him Die – This is one of the harder achievements out there and I have yet to try it. There are two different strategies I could think of and neither of them is particularly appealing. My first idea would be to pull the first watcher group and kill the two adds but not the watcher himself and then repeat that with the next two watchers. Then, while tanking all three watchers, pull the boss, pop cooldowns and burn the hell out of him with a fair bit of prayer mixed in. My second idea would be to have the group's healer grab aggro on all three packs and kite them all the way back to the beginning of the instance while the 3 dps and the tank pop all their CDs and burn the boss and pray that they can kill him before the watchers get back and/or the tank dies, If the mobs can be snared, an earthbind totem or frost trap or piercing howl will buy a few extra seconds. On wowhead, there is another, slightly more elegant strategy. I guess there is a path off to one of the side of the room where the healer can run up and get almost parallel with the boss. Then you have someone in the group create a big health deficit with life tap or getting naked and then getting dressed again. Then, the person with the health deficit has to very quickly get in combat, have them put up a dot, or a quick auto-attack the moment the tank charges in, then way, when the healer lands a big heal on that person, they will also be in combat and will have aggro on the adds. Nobody else touches the adds, it's a full burn on the boss. The adds run all the way over to where the path up to the healer starts and then run up the path and just before they get to the healer, he jumps down so the adds have to come all the way back down again. Those strategies are about as elegant as a punch in the face, but if your DPS is high enough, you should have enough time to kill the boss. There might be a better way to get this achievement done, but I don't know what it is.
Hadronox Denied – I am not entirely sure what the correct strategy for this one is but I will tell you what happened when my group did it. But first, a quick review of the boss the encounter works. The boss starts off a level below the group and he is fighting other spiders for some reason. There are a few trash pulls in the room and there are two long stairways leading up to doors from which new adds spawn. The adds will go and attack Hadronox and he will put a poison on them and when he kills an add that is affected by the poison, he gets a huge heal. If you are doing this without the achievement, the boss will make his way up to the groups level, killing spiders all the way, and then put web over the doors so no more adds spawn so you don't have to worry about the poison and the heals. What my group did when we went for the achievement was to attack the boss just to get on his aggro list so that when he got up to our level, he would immediately move to engage us instead of putting web on the doors and stopping the stream of spiders. That meant that we had to deal with the poison and the boss getting big heals when the spiders died. We didn't really research how the encounter worked so it took us a few times of getting the boss to around 50-60% and then watching him heal to full before we figured out what was going on. Our strategy was a simple loldps approach. We waited for a bunch of spiders to die from the poison and then nuked the crap out of the boss before any other spiders could die and heal him. I don't know if there is another more elegant way to get this achievement, but good ol' fashioned brute force worked for my group.
Gotta Go – This is the hardest one by a long shot. It requires certain class comp and a fair bit of luck. Its getting a much deserved nerf in the next patch. A lot of people who have gotten this achievement bring a tank, a dps class that can heal and 3 pure DPSers. The ideal group is a warrior tank, a rogue, a hunter, a shaman (preferably elemental) and another physical DPS class (preferably another hunter). The shaman throws a little bit of damage and makes sure the tank is topped off for the first 25% of the fight. When the boss gets close to 75%, the hunter drops a snake trap and the rogue makes sure that mind numbing poison is up. The rogues poison and the mind numbing poison that the snake trap applies stack. So you just hope and pray that the snakes put up the mind numbing poison. Then you wait for the boss to start casting either Locust Swarm or Pound and while he is casting, everyone pops cooldowns and burns harder than they have ever burned before. The idea is that during the slow cast of Pound/Locust Swarm, the group puts out a ton of damage so that when the cast finishes and the boss goes to burrow like he normally would at 75%, he is actually below 50% so that you are able to skip the 50% burrow entirely. You nuke the hell out of the adds and then, when you are getting close to the 25% burrow, you try to get mind numbing stacked with the snake poison again and take the boss from just over 25% to zero during another slow cast.
Party's Over – Pretty simple, have someone sit out. That means you have less DPS to stop him from killing someone during his Vampiric Embrace thingy and fewer people to spread the damage from the fire orb between, but all in all, its not overly difficult.
Volazj's Quick Demise – You used to be able to use line of sight to avoid the Insanity cast, but when my group tried to do that last week, we failed repeatedly. Blizzard may have changed how the spell works so that you cannot LoS it anymore or my group might have just been bad at running around pillars. Either way, its possible to do this achievement without using LoS to skip the Insanity phase. The idea is the same as Gotta Go, but its much more forgiving. He casts Insanity at 66% and 33% and you will have to deal with at least 1 cast. So you dps him down, he casts the first Insanity and your group has to burn all the adds in their phase as fast as possible but without popping cooldowns. The Insanity phase is what will make or break your attempt and all 5 people have to perform well. Once you get out, you keep burning the boss but slow dps around 37% and wait for a Mind Flay. Curse of Tongues or Mind Numbing Poison or something else to slow the boss' cast time needs to be applied and his Mind Flay cast will take forever. When he starts casting Mind Flay, the group pops all their cooldowns and nukes the hell out of the boss. Between the slow Mind Flay cast and the slow Insanity cast, the boss should die before the Insanity cast completes.
Respect your elders – This one is pretty simple. The adds he summons put up an aura that make the boss immune to damage so in order to kill the boss without killing the adds, you have to make sure the boss never gets that aura and never goes immune. The summon is based on the boss' hp so the way to do this is by clearing pretty much all the trash between the boss and the entrance to the instance and then kiting the boss all the way back to the entrance. The first summon is at 80% so you dps the boss to there and then pop cooldowns and nuke the hell out of him and get the kill before the add gets in range to apply the aura.
Volunteer Work – For some achievements, you can ignore some mechanic of the fight and brute force your way through it, but for this one you are required to ignore a mechanic and brute force your way though it. Luckily though, it's not too difficult. You just let the add get to her and let her enrage and then just tank right through it. You can cheese the encounter by jumping down the waterfall after you first pull the boss so that by the time she gets to you the enrage has worn off, but that kinda feels like cheating to me. When my group did this, I ran to one of the corners of the platform so she had to waste some enrage time by running over to me and when she got there, I immediately disarmed her and popped a cooldown as the disarm was wearing off. By doing that, I was never really in danger of dying. The only hitch is her whirlwind attack which will absolutely one-shot any melee that doesn't run away when she starts to cast it.
Drak'tharon Keep
Consumption Junction – This one is pretty easy. Tank the boss at the bottom of the stairs and have the group hang out at the top of the stairs next to a pillar. The group up top kills the adds immediately so that they can't contribute to the Consume count. The timer for Consume is pretty regular so the group simply runs out of line of sight every 10 seconds so that the tank is the only person it hits. This is obviously going to be more difficult if you have a melee heavy group, but still totally doable. You just burn for 10 seconds, run out of line of sight until you see the boss get another stack of Consume from the tank and then run back in and pewpewpew for another 10 seconds.
Better off Dred – The strategy is pretty basic, pull everything and kill it all. There are 7 raptors in the boss' room so you can kill one of them before the pull. If you screw it up and kill more than one, don't worry, they respawn fairly quickly. One strategy is to pull the front 3 raptors and get them all to around 10-15% then pull the boss and finish off the raptors and then pull the others 1 at a time. Or you can be pro and pull everything at once and zerg it down.
Oh Novos – Really simple, just kill everything while it is still on the stairs. The humanoids that spawn from the sides don't count against you, only the undead guys and they only come down the stairs.
Violet Hold
Defenseless – Very simple – be pro.
Lockdown – Run VH a lot and hope RNG is on your side.
Dehydration – This one requires a bit of group coordination. The easiest way to do it is by using the Defense Control Crystals in the room (which means that you can't get this and Defenseless in the same run). Designate someone in the group to click the crystal and have the person click the crystal just before the split happens. The crystal takes 6 seconds to fire which is why you want to click it a little bit before the split happens. If any globules get close to the boss, you can stun them to keep them in place until the crystal fires.
A Void Dance – Anyone care to guess what the strategy for this one is? That's right, brute force. Ignore the adds and burn the boss as fast as possible
Share the Love – This achievement sucks and I hate it. You need a group with 2 tanks in it to get this done because the boss will never impale the tank. DPS the boss down to around 20% then stop dps until all 4 people have been impaled then have the second tank taunt and wait for the first tank to get impaled and then finish off the boss. You can try to improve your chances of getting the right people impaled by letting people die after they have gotten it, but in my experience, that can make the achievement bug out. There are other strategies involving having some people stay out of combat or other such silliness, but I the most reliable way to get this done and not have it bug out is to bring 2 tanks and wait for RNG to swing in your direction.
Less-rabi – This achievement sucks and I hate it. The cast time for the transformation is based on the boss' hp – the lower his hp, the faster the cast and he is immune to cast slowing effects like Curse of Tongues and Mind Numbing Poison. The cast has about a 10 second cooldown though. The idea is to dps him down to around 35% and wait for him to cast the transform. The cast will be very quick at that point so hitting the interrupt will require a good latency and a bit of luck. Once that cast happens, you need to pop cooldowns and burn as hard as possible to get him dead before he can cast again. Once he is below 15% or so, the cast will be nearly instant so interrupting it will require pure blind luck. 35% hp is about the lowest you can take the boss and still be reasonably able to get the interrupt off and then nuke him to 0 before he casts again. If your DPS is slow, you can try to set up the last interrupt before the burn at a lower %, but it will be very tough.

Good Grief – Nothing too complicated about this one, burn the boss hard. The boss works just like Maiden of Virtue from Karazhan – the stun is broken by damage. Have everyone in the party ready to step into the void zone the moment before the stun lands so that it breaks quickly and dps can resume.
Brann Spankin New – Very simple – be pro. If you can beat this encounter, you can get the achievement. Contrary to popular belief, this encounter does not rely on the tank's ability to pick up the adds, it all comes down to how quickly the dps can kill the adds.
Abuse the Ooze –Sjonnir only summons oozes between 50 and 20%, so get him to that range and sit on him. There are oozes that spawn and then they turn into Iron Sludges, make sure you are killing the right thing when they reach the boss or when they combine with each other (I don't really remember exactly how they work) so make sure you are killing the right thing. They do an aoe poison volley that will do a ton of damage but they don't have much HP, so make sure they get nuked quickly.
Halls of Lightning
Lightning Struck – I got this achievement by accident the first time I did the instance; I didn't realize the buff would go away. The strategy is the same for this achievement as it would be for the regular version of the boss. Kill the adds, then kill the boss. Just be prepared to get slapped around pretty hard because of the 30% damage buff.
Shatter Resistant – I honestly don't know how to not get this achievement. As long as you have 3 dpsers who have at least 35% brain function, you should have no trouble getting this done. Ignore the adds, burn the boss.
Timely Death – This was another achievement that I got by accident the first time I was in the instance. Loken is hard and kills a lot of people, so burning him as hard as possible just makes sense – kill him before he kills you. Depending on what classes you have and their HP, it may be possible to just stay in for the lightning nova and eat the damage in order to keep DPS high.
The Culling of Time – Two words: chain pull. This is pretty easy to do as long as everyone in the group knows what it takes. It also helps to know where to go when you see the town crier guy yell where the next wave is. Get loot done very quickly; communicate how you want to handle it in advance to the group so that you don't have to waste time during the event. And talk to Arthas ASAP every time he appears because he is slow as hell and takes forever with his RP nonsense. Keep in mind, pulling the boss within the timer doesn't cut it, you have to kill him within the timer and if the timer expires while you are fighting the boss, he will despawn.
Zombiefest – There are exactly 100 zombies in the gauntlet before the Mal'ganis. If you try to pull the entire gauntlet with all the elites mixed in, you will probably die horribly unless you are geared to the teeth. There are exactly 85 zombies in the streets in the beginning part of the instance and they will not respawn after the second boss dies. The most common strategy is to drag the second boss all the way to the inn where the third boss spawns and kill him slowly so that any zombies you had to kill while kiting the boss have enough time to respawn. Then you kill the third boss and get Arthas to open the back door so you have access to the gauntlet. Then you send someone with to go round up all the zombies in the instance. Ret aura, thorns, fire shield and damage shield will all kill the zombies and that's bad. The person run all the way to the beginning of the instance and grab every single mob and then kites them all back to the inn, through the inn and out the other side to the beginning of the gauntlet. Then you can aoe all those 85 zombies from the beginning of the instance and pull the first few groups of zombies from the gauntlet to get your achievement.
Utgarde Pinnacle
The Incredible Hulk – Pretty simple strategy, pull the boss and let her start he speech, then go grab the abom that is hanging out in the back of the room. DPS the abom down to around 10% hp because the sword sacrifice thingy only does about 10k damage. When she sacrifices someone, kill the 3 channelers like usual and then drag the abom under the sword. You can try some fanciness of sticking the abom up there and then running away so you don't accidentally take sacrifice damage too, but that is just making it too complicated IMO. You are a tank, you can take the damage. If you are really worried, hit shield wall or last stand.
2x skadi http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=1873 and http://www.wowhead.com/?achievement=2156 – Both of the Skadi achievements are done the same way and you can/should get them both at the same time. Go through the gauntlet once but do not fire any harpoons. Kill 5 harpooners and have each person in the group loot a harpoon. Then have everyone run back to the beginning of the gauntlet and out of the room and the encounter will reset but the harpoons don't despawn. After the reset, do the gauntlet like you normally would but when Skadi comes into harpoon range, have all 5 people fire a harpoon at him at the same time and that ought to be enough to bring him down. After that, the fight is no different than normal.
King's Bane – Pretty simple, be pro. Don't dps when the boss puts up Bane. Although, honestly, in all the times I have run this instance I have never ever seen him cast Bane. I don't know if it is buggy or if the group's dps has just been really good every time.
The Oculus
Experienced Drake Rider – Pretty straightforward, will require at least a couple runs to get it done.
Ruby Void and Amber Void – 5x emerald drake kite fest. Roll stacks of poison and don't ever stop moving, even when he does his portal thingy. The boss will keep up with you and the poison will heal through his damage, the key is that the whelps can't keep up. If the current target of the boss starts to dip low, 1 or 2 people can cast the long channeled heal, but get moving quickly again, probably don't need the full duration. This is, in my opinion, much easier than doing it with a normal setup, it just takes a while. I think it took roughly 7 minutes when my group did it.
Emerald void – My group went with 5 bronze drakes. As has been the theme for most of the strategies, you are going to want to burn the boss done as fast as possible but this one requires a lot more strategy and coordination than most of the other 'lol zerg' strategies for other achievements. Its important to understand how the bronze drakes work. Maxing dps from a bronze drake is all about shock charges. The shock lance ability does about 5k damage plus another 6k damage for each shock charge that detonates. Temporal rift increases damage taken by the boss by 100% and while he is affected by it, shock charges are generated for every 15k damage taken. Stop time freezes everything for 10 seconds generates 5 shock charges. Open the fight by having 1 person use time stop and then immediately start channeling temporal rift. Once the rift is up, everyone else fires their shock lance for a ton of damage and the person channeling the temporal rift will get 10 shock charges very very quickly. Once that person gets 10 charges, the other four people channel temporal rift and the other person stops channeling his and fires off a shock lance. That shock lance plus the 10 charges should be enough damage that the other 4 people have 10 charges almost immediately and then you switch again and the 1 person channels the rift while the other 4 shock lance. By switching back and forth like that, you do a truckload of damage to the boss in a very short period of time. If executed perfectly, you will have people switching from shock lance to temporal rift every GCD. But that's a pretty tall order so play it safe and channel the temporal rift for at least 2 seconds to make sure you get your full stack of shock charges. If done right, the boss will be almost to 66% within the duration of the first time stop and he will banish himself and cast his orb thingy without summoning any whelps at all. Have the group try to move in the same direction away from the orbs and wait for the boss to come to them afterward. Then another person will time stop and you repeat the temporal rift -> shock lance rotation again until he banishes a second time. If it gets sloppy and a bunch of whelps spawn, have another person use time stop to lock them down. You don't want to use time stop too often though because it is subject to diminishing returns and you do not want to the boss to be immune if it gets ugly and you need a time stop while he is enraged. It will probably take a few repetitions to get the coordination for the rift -> shock lance rotation worked out but once you get rolling, you will be amazed by how fast the boss dies.
Make it Count – If you have a group that knows how to do the 5 bronze drake method to kill the last boss, that is probably your best bet when going for this achievement because it will result in the fastest kill. Beyond that, just haul ass through the instance and pull as few drakes as possible when clearing for the second boss.
