All preparation comes to a sudden halt, however, when the community is overrun by an enemy that disappears as quickly as it arrived. Many are killed or wounded, but it soon becomes clear that this was not the goal of the raiders ... All of the village''s children are now gone, apparently carried off in the chaos of the attack. As the characters begin to search for the missing children, they will discover a plot far more sinister than any of them had imagined ... and possibly be destroyed by it. Players will face a wide variety of perils throughout the course of this adventure, ranging from Goblin depravity to mystical puzzles and mysteries unknown, as they take their first steps toward learning the fate of the missing children. May the gods be with them in their quest! This module includes six pre-generated starting characters that players can use if desired to jump right into the adventure.

Magna Carta

release date: Dec 04, 2014
Magna Carta
On a summer''s day in 1215 a beleaguered English monarch met a group of disgruntled barons in a meadow by the river Thames named Runnymede. Beset by foreign crisis and domestic rebellion, King John was fast running out of options. On 15 June he reluctantly agreed to fix his regal seal to a document that would change the world. A milestone in the development of constitutional politics and the rule of law, the ''Great Charter'' established an Englishman''s right to Habeas Corpus and set limits to the exercise of royal power. For the first time a group of subjects had forced an English king to agree to a document that limited his powers by law and protected their rights. Dan Jones''s elegant and authoritative narrative of the making and legacy of Magna Carta is amplified by profiles of the barons who secured it and a full text of the charter in both Latin and English.

The Wars of the Roses

release date: Oct 14, 2014
The Wars of the Roses
The author of the New York Times bestseller The Plantagenets and The Templars chronicles the next chapter in British history—the historical backdrop for Game of Thrones The inspiration for the Channel 5 series Britain''s Bloody Crown The crown of England changed hands five times over the course of the fifteenth century, as two branches of the Plantagenet dynasty fought to the death for the right to rule. In this riveting follow-up to The Plantagenets, celebrated historian Dan Jones describes how the longest-reigning British royal family tore itself apart until it was finally replaced by the Tudors. Some of the greatest heroes and villains of history were thrown together in these turbulent times, from Joan of Arc to Henry V, whose victory at Agincourt marked the high point of the medieval monarchy, and Richard III, who murdered his own nephews in a desperate bid to secure his stolen crown. This was a period when headstrong queens and consorts seized power and bent men to their will. With vivid descriptions of the battles of Towton and Bosworth, where the last Plantagenet king was slain, this dramatic narrative history revels in bedlam and intrigue. It also offers a long-overdue corrective to Tudor propaganda, dismantling their self-serving account of what they called the Wars of the Roses.

The Psychology of Big Brother

release date: Mar 16, 2010
The Psychology of Big Brother
The ONLY book on the psychology of the big brother TV show When you watch Big Brother, do you have a feeling about which housemates like each other? Do you wish you knew what the housemates dreams meant? Would you like to be able to understand the housemates behaviours and interactions more like psychologist do? If the answer to these questions is YES, then this book is for you Learn to watch the Big Brother TV show in the same way that psychologists watch the show. Throughout this book the reader will learn to: - Be able to ''read'' the unconscious information that the Big Brother housemates give off verbally and non-verbally - Notice whether housemates are likely to be lying or telling the truth - Notice whether housemates are being manipulative - Know who is likely to do well and who is not - and much more... You will also learn what impact being in the Big Brother house is likely to have psychologically on the housemates and who is likely to cope best under the conditions set by Big Brother. The reader will learn about flirt signals, bullying in the house and interpreting the housemate''s dreams. Throughout this book I have used examples from UK Celebrity Big Brother 2007 to illustrate the points that I am covering. "As a fan of Big Brother I watch it in a different way to most people. Due to my training and experience as a psychological interpreter when I watch Big Brother I observe how the different contestants behave and interact with each other. I don''t make interpretations in quite the same way as most other psychologists and psychotherapists do. For example: Many psychologists look for specific behaviours and then make interpretations based on isolated behaviours. One common behaviour is that crossing your arms or legs means that you are being defensive. This may be true but if you see this behaviour you shouldn''t take it in isolation to other behaviours. It could equally be that it is cold or that the person is more comfortable by crossing their arms or legs. The key point that I would make is that you should keep in mind to watch out for PATTERNS. If someone, for example, covers their mouth and you think they were lying then look for other behaviours that were done at the same time and then check these in future situations. Poker players do this often to notice the behaviours of other players that give away whether they have a good hand or not. I had a client that when talking about her problem subtly dug her heals into the ground. I changed the subject then after a few minutes talked about it again and saw her dig her heals in again. I knew then that a suspected pattern occurred. She wanted to get better but it turned out she was getting something out of being ill (attention from her husband). After thousands of hours of watching people you get used to quickly picking up on people''s patterns of behaviour and on ways you can test those patterns. There is so much that I could cover for you to look out for when watching Big Brother that I have to cut down to what I think are the key points."

Technical Writing Style

release date: Aug 01, 1997
Technical Writing Style
Advanced technical communication books are becoming more and more available. However, each book is solely devoted to a specialized topic such as technical editing, design, illustration, usability testing, and online documentation. Despite all of these introductory and advanced books, not one is available specifically devoted to the challenges of style in technical communication. KEY TOPICS: This 12-point approach offers the most current and comprehensive instruction available in achieving an effective style in technical documents. It shows that technical prose style varies from the highly formal to the colloquial, from the pretentious to the plain, and it demonstrates the many stylistic strategies writers should consider for every technical document they write. Anyone who has to write professional and technical documents, specifically, engineers, software developers/consultants, medical writers, professional technical writers. Part of the Allyn & Bacon Series in Technical communication.
