Temple of Elemental Evil is a turn-based role-playing game using the AD&D Greyhawk campaign setting with 3.5 version D&D rules. The game plot revolves the (suspected) rise of evil, originating from the Temple of Elemental Evil.In this game, players start with five generated (or pre-generated) party members in the start of the adventure (a maximum of eight, the later three comprising non-player characters). Unlike most AD&D games, the maximum level cap for characters in this game is the 10th level.
The party itself has an alignment (in addition to individual character alignments) which greatly affects the plot and choices the party makes throughout the game. Character alignments and the party alignment are now closely related. For example, a Lawful Good or Chaotic Evil character may not be selected within a True Neutral party alignment. Additionally, Paladins do not want to be in the same group with anyone evil.
Thus, depending on the party alignment (nine default alignments to choose from), players may either take the course of being the good heroes ridding evil from the land or be the evil raiders butchering anything that moves, all of which (may it be good, bad or neutral), may effect the party reputation.

Cut Content
Most of the content, unique to playing an evil campaign was taken out of the game due to pressure by the publisher (Atari). An entire area with subquests (the brothel) was also removed because they were afraid to lose the T rating.Luckily, the 'Circle of eight' fan group re-enabled the "Brothel" Map, NPC's, quest, and companion in their unofficial patches.
Upon release, the version out of the box was plagued with bugs: quests not ending properly, glitches in the D&D 3.5 rules, bugged items, crashes, monsters spawning in walls, ...An eager fan community listed all the bugs on the Atari forums, hoping for a quick fix. When time passed and no patches appeared, one of the Troika developers stated in a post that Atari had ended the contract with them when TTOEE was released, so they wouldn't get paid for developing patches.
There's nothing worse than a bunch of angry gamers, so some fans decided to reverse engineer and decompile some of the code. They were successful and a group called 'Circle of eight' created custom unofficial patches that fixed all the bugs.
This was too much of a stain on the Atari corporate image, so they announced an official patch on 30th september, 2003. Almost two months after the release, on 10th november, 2003, the patch was finally available, but without the efforts and persistence of fans, the game would have stayed bug-ridden.

The rest of One Direction is worried that Kris Jenner may convince Harry Styles to go solo, claims Nowmagazine in a story that's completely false.
According to the outlet, Styles' coziness with Kendall Jenner is "causing friction" with bandmates Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik andLouis Tomlinson.
"Harry has been spending lots of time with Kendall's mother Kris, who's taken it upon herself to give him lots of career advice, including on life after 1D," reports Now.
The magazine adds, "Those close to the band say the boys are worried Kris may influence Harry to go solo."
"Some of the boys are concerned that Harry's stealing the spotlight with yet another celeb romance, but they're also furious about Kris meddling in band matters," a so-called "source" tells the outlet. "They're worried she's slowly trying to get him to quit."
Stories about Styles breaking up the band to go solo have been floating around forever —and they've been wrong.
And while it is true that Styles — or another One Directioner — may eventually release his own material, the idea that Kris Jenner is pulling the strings is absurd.Follow @Infocelebrity on Twitter!

Greg Rusedski believes he is starting to feel more like his old self after continuing his recent resurgence last night.
The British number two, who won the Hall of Fame Championship at Rhode Island last week, reached the quarter-finals of the Mercedes-Benz Cup here by beating Karol Beck.
Rusedski won 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 to book a clash with Germany's Nicolas Kiefer in the last eight.
"I am on a roll. This has been a fantastic start to the summer for me," Rusedski said.
Rusedski voluntarily sat out the first four months of the 2004 season after being charged with using performance-enhancing drugs. He was cleared in March, and the 30-year-old Briton has begun to find his form at the first hardcourt summer event leading up to next month's US Open.
"It was very difficult to get back - mentally, physically and emotionally - but I have had a period where I have managed to improve.
"Playing matches has been the key - getting confidence in tight situations, playing points and playing better serves. I am pleased it has come back so quick, so that is a plus for me.
"It has been a long time (2002) since I won seven straight matches, so that gives me a lot of confidence and makes me feel good about myself." Rusedski rifled 16 aces on his way to a 107-minute victory that took his win-loss record for the year to the 13-8. He had slipped 4-2 behind in the deciding set and was a point way from going 5-2 down but fought back to reduce the deficit and take the match on the tie-break.
"Once I got into the tie-breaker, I was pretty confident because I have been playing them pretty well," Rusedski said. "It is just nice to hang in there and get the win."
Rusedski is now anticipating a tough encounter with Kiefer when he returns to action. "It is going to be another tough match, but it is another positive step forward for me," he said. "He is a good returner of serve, he is a counter-puncher, and I am going to be coming forward, so it should be a good match."
Kiefer advanced to his third consecutive quarter-final appearance but knows he has to raise the level of his game if he wants to beat Rusedski.
"Everybody knows Greg is playing great serve-and-volley. He just won at Newport," the German Olympian said. "I take it how it comes and hope I can play much, much better and beat this guy."
The third seed, Mardy Fish, also reached the quarter-finals, but he was made to struggle against Belgium's Gilles Elseneer, winning 6-2, 3-6, 6-3.
Fish had raced into a 5-1 lead in the first set and looked comfortable before the 97th-ranked Elseneer broke the American's serve in the sixth game of the second set.
Fish jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the third set to clinch the victory and will meet Cyril Saulnier in the quarter-finals after the Frenchman beat the Czech player Jan Hernych 6-3, 6-7, 6-3.
In Stanford, the top seed Venus Williams made an impressive return to the Bank of the West Classic by wiping out Lindsay Lee-Waters 6-1, 6-1 in the second round on Wednesday. The two-time Stanford champion was relentless from inside the baseline and served tremendously well, challenging her American compatriot to hang in with her in brutal rallies.
Often, all Lee-Waters could do was watch balls whiz past her into the corners.
"Venus is great, but I never relaxed and played my game," Lee-Waters said.
"I let her dictate to me. I served poorly and played too many balls down the middle, but she's such a good player it's hard to play your game. It was a little overwhelming."

Latin America Correspondent
President Carlos Menem of Argentina has suffered his worst political setback since he was re-elected in May. The centre-left opposition Frepaso alliance won the influential Senate seat for the capital, Buenos Aires, at the weekend.
The overwhelming victory by Frepaso's candidate, Graciela Fernandez Meijide, with more than 50 per cent of the vote to only 21 per cent for Mr Menem's Peronist candidate, was seen as reflecting disquiet over rampant unemployment and reports of official corruption. The Peronist candidate, Antonio Erman Gonzalez, a former economics and defence minister under Mr Menem, was left a humiliating third behind Jorge Vanossi of the Radicals, who won 22.5 per cent.
"This will teach those who said there was no way to get at Menem," said Ms Meijide, a leading human rights campaigner. "The people are fed up."
The vote of discontent in the capital followed a series of provincial riots this summer, notably in Cordoba and San Juan provinces, some by the unemployed but mostly by public sector workers who had not been paid in months.
When he was re-elected in May, Mr Menem pledged to "pulverise unemployment the way we pulverised inflation". But the jobless figure has spiralled to a record 18.6 per cent.
On the recent feast day of St Cayetano, patron saint of work, more than a million people filed through the St Cayetano church outside Buenos Aires to beseech the saint for jobs. Some had camped out for a week to get a place in line.
The jobless rate threatens Mr Menem's economic successes of the past five years, bringing the economy to its most sensitive point since it floundered in the wake of last December's Mexican financial crisis.
Uncertainty over the future of the Economy Minister, Domingo Cavallo, architect of much of the recent successes, has also caused jitters among domestic and foreign investors who fear economic instability were he to go. Mr Cavallo caused a political storm in August when he said mafiosi were entrenched in the upper reaches of government and state bodies. Rumours that hardline Peronists would force his dismissal sent the stock market downward and threatened foreign investment until Mr Menem issued a hearty endorsement of his minister.

Paradoxical consumption behavior when economic activity has environmental effects
In a model where enhanced economic activity (accumulation of produced capital) leads to environmental effects (depletion of natural capital), competitive steady states corresponding to different discount rates are compared. For positive discount rates, the steady state stock of produced capital may exceed the size maximizing sustainable consumption. This implies paradoxical consumption behavior; that is, a lower discount rate may be associated with lower steady state consumption. The theoretical significance of this phenomenon for intergenerational equity is discussed, and examples indicating the empirical relevance of the underlying assumptions are presented.

pregnant guppy One of my female guppies has been pregnant for about a month now. I'm not sure how long it takes them to have the fry, but it seems like she should have had them already. Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated. |
it really depends on your water quality and stress levels in the tank, but normal gestation period for livebearers should be between 28-40 days, wtih 28 days being the norm. but again, water quality/stress can have an affect on the fish and will delay the birth, or could cause preterm birth and higher fatality rate. good luck! bri |
Thank you! I guess she is on the right track then! |
My guppy finally had her babies!! Only three so far today.. I'm hoping there's more... |

Poolish after 13 hrs |

More Bread: Poolish Makes Perfect
Continuing with the Forkish book, I tried another bread, on
a day with no expectation of power outage at baking time. This one was what he
calls his "Harvest Bread with Poolish." The recipe calls for 10% whole wheat, for which I substituted organic
pumpernickel, and 5% wheat germ and 2% wheat bran; I used all wheat germ, or 7%. I seem to like more hydration, or maybe I was a little sloppy when adding water, so increased
that too—probably to 80%. This dough is about 50% poolish. Interesting.
The bread is just as Forkish describes: buttery and aromatic. It is soft, flavorful, with a moist open crumb and a nice crisp crust. In addition to being very good, this bread suits my
lifestyle, at least on weekends. You mix the poolish at 6:00 pm, leave it on
the counter overnight, mix the dough at 7:00 a.m. next morning, and bake around
10 a.m. A couple of folds early in bulk fermentation. A total breeze. Much more convenient, and
better taste and texture, than the Saturday Bread.
In fact, I am a little worried about just how easy and
convenient. Bread like this is just about the best thing to have for breakfast,
toasted or not, with butter, and jam or not. And just about the best thing to
have for lunch, with a good cheddar or gruyere. And just about the best thing to have for dinner,
with a salad or some sautéed mushrooms and wine. Or both. Pretty soon you've
eaten half a loaf in a day. Half of a two-pound loaf, that is. Yikes!

Oh, Jane!
I love your "head for bread," for it's much like a "hand for pie crust," (which I've also never had).
You experiment with exotically-named flours; I grab the Martha White with Hot Rize Plus or the little packet of Cornbread Mix, which I prink around with with flour and eggs and jalapenos. You adjust the hydration, I say, "Just get the batter to where it's kinda between dumplin' dough and cake batter."
Many warm Spring wishes this magical First Day!

Why Volunteer? Each year, millions of dollars are lost in North County when hard-working area families do not file for their Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) at tax time. That money is lost to them -- and to the local economy. In addition, an estimated $2 million plus is unnecessarily lost when area families pay high fees to commercial tax preparation firms that offer Refund Anticipation Loans (RALs) or rapid returns.
The United Way wants you to join the team to help these families and your community's economy. Volunteer at one of the designated VITA sites (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) that provide low-income working families free tax preparation help and links to other financial opportunities.

ArticlesE-journals for school libraries Over the last decade there has been an information revolution using digital methods of publishing and online access. This has led to certain printbased journals being available online and the frequent appearance of new e-journals. Schools can benefit greatly from this publishing phenomenon, particularly with the utilisation of high-speed Internet access. Busy library staff are faced with the task of selecting e-journals appropriate to the needs of teachers and students.

We're going to teach values Several state school systems in Australia are edging towards the formulation of value frameworks. There are challenges in any attempt to construct a framework of agreed values, in the light of the variety of world views and value stances now abroad in pluralistic communities like ours. The way ahead is 'committed impartiality', through which teachers encourage values discussions, speak openly about their own values, but return to the need for impartiality when assessing students' cognitive understanding and empathy for the range of values embraced in the community.

It is designed to reinvigorate science education by giving teachers more confidence and skills, through a range of supportive programs covering professional development, careers information, outreach activities and online resources for teachers and students. A major focus is on primary schools, where the seeds of interest in science can be sown at a young age.

Research also suggests that protection of children from all knowledge of war is misguided. Parents and teachers need to talk with children about war.
The Qualities of Peacemakers project, funded by UNESCO, suggests a constructive and empowering way for teachers to share ideas about war and peace with children. The program begins with the child's own world and then links peace in the home, school and neighbourhood with the international arena.

Many of the functional areas in school management rightly belong in state agencies or schools. Where speed of delivery, flexibility and responsiveness to local needs are criteria, services should be located close to the users of those services. But in the big emblematic areas of curriculum, assessment and certification, it is difficult to find any argument for the maintenance of eight separate parallel institutional frameworks.

The priority of the National Inquiry, therefore, will be that it is strongly representative of practitioner experience. If this is assured, practitioners will welcome its potential to be a means of actually impelling wider understanding of their complex work.

We have a crisis of leadership in schools in Australia. There are extraordinary individual leaders, but many principals feel powerless. Our rhetoric reinforces that feeling, and organisational and institutional arrangements conspire to weaken and undermine principals.

Gender or quality? The author draws upon comments by Professor Frank Crowther, to argue that ensuring the quality of teachers is more important than achieving gender balance in the provision of primary school teachers. 'A student's intellectual, social and personal development is influenced more by the quality of teaching than by factors such as gender, age, ethnicity or religion of the teacher,' according to Professor Crowther.

Schools can do more to promote the profession. Mathematics teachers themselves need to inspire potential teachers in today's classrooms by conveying their own passion for the discipline.

More likely, they fail because they have not developed the underlying critical thinking skills to be able to answer those questions successfully. By providing a structured approach to using questions, the Highly Effective Questioning technique develops the cognitive and critical thinking skills of students. The technique uses intensive, tactical, minute by minute oral questioning of students over the course of a lesson, rather than just as a minor note at the end.

Key Learning AreasLanguagesSubject HeadingsLanguages other than English (LOTE)History, wars and history wars Over the past ten years or so Australia has witnessed a series of lively, complicated and sometimes bitter public debates about aspects of our national history. It is difficult to imagine issues more weighty and disturbing than genocide or the ruination of a people and culture. But these issues must be confronted if young people are to truly belong to a reconciled community. The current public debate also points to something much more mundane but significant for educators - the need to recognise that human knowledge and understanding is constantly growing and shifting, and that no pedagogy or set of curriculum content is a permanent embodiment of truth.
