DO place your plant in indirect sunlight for at least six hours per day. If direct sun can’t be avoided, diffuse the light with a shade or sheer curtain.

DO provide room temperatures between 68 – 70° F. Generally speaking, if you are comfortable, so is your poinsettia.

DO water your plant when the soil feels dry to the touch.

DO use a large, roomy shopping bag to protect your plant when transporting it.

DO fertilize your plant AFTER THE BLOOMING SEASON with a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer.

DON’T place plants near cold drafts or excessive heat. Avoid placing plants near appliances, fireplaces or ventilating ducts.

DON’T expose plants to temperatures below 50° F. Poinsettias are sensitive to cold, so avoid placing them outside during the winter months.

DON’T over-water your plant, or allow it to sit in standing water. Always remove a plant from any decorative container before watering, and allow the water to drain completely.

Monsters
p5: Delete “medium-sized” from the definition of a humanoid.
p5: In the paragraph regarding experience points, delete “in parenthesis” from the sentence starting with “The number in parenthesis….”
p6: The experience examples on page 6 are wrong. In the first example, the 5HD creature with 25 hit points would be worth 205XP (base 80XP + 5XP per hit point). In the second example, the 4HD creature with the special ability would be worth 60XP (40XP base + 20XP for special ability) + 4XP per hit point.
p6 (clarification): In computing experience points for creatures not in the book, the bonus XP values for Type I, II, and III abilities stack. For example, the Treant has an XP value of 585+7. Base XP for a 7HD creature is 180 with Type I, II, and III bonuses of 90, 135, and 180XP. If only the highest bonus were to be used, XP for a Treant would be 360+7XP, leaving 225XP unaccounted for. Adding the Type I and Type II abilities together (90+135) happens to equal 225, which is the unaccounted XP.
p8: Aboleth – In the Special section of the creature stat block, “Psionics” should be “Spell-like Abilities”.
p8 (provisional): Achaierai – No. Encountered is 5-8 (1d4+4). Solitary individuals are possible.
p9: Allip No. Encountered should be “1” instead of “solitary”.
p9: Allip are Extraordinary Undead (semi-intelligent, with great power, as per p121 of the PHB).
p9: Giant Ants are size Small.
p10 (provisional): Ape – No. Encountered is 4-16.
p10: Arrowhawk – In the Movement rating, delete “perfect”. This is a holdover from the SRD.
p10 (clarification): Assassin Vine surprise is an exception to the normal surprise rules, to make this creature hard to spot regardless of the searcher’s wisdom.
p11: Baboon number appearing in the descriptive text is correct (10-40).
p12-13 (clarification): The Behir’s breath weapon is treated as a lightning bolt in terms of damage (1d6 per level of the caster). Creature HD are used to determine caster level (see p4, HD description). Therefore, the breath weapon does 9d6 damage, save reduces damage by half.
p14 (provisional): Bugbears have a movement rate of 30ft., not 18ft.

• An Internet connection

Setting Up iPod touch

Before you can use any of the iPod touch features, you must use iTunes to set up iPod touch. You can also register iPod touch and create an iTunes Store account (available in some countries) if you don’t already have one. Set up iPod touch

1. Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes.

NOTE: Before using your dishwasher for the first time, check the information in this section. Some items are not dishwasher safe and should be hand-washed; others require special loading. Contact the item’s manufacturer if you are unsure about the item’s dishwasher suitability.

Recommended
Colored anodized aluminum may fade over time. Minerals in your water may cause the aluminum to darken or spot. This can usually be removed by using a soap-filled steel wool pad. Some hand-painted pieces may discolor, fade, or spot. Hand-wash these pieces. Position fragile glassware so that it will not topple over or contact other pieces during the wash cycle. Milk glass may yellow. Apply a light coating of vegetable oil to non-stick surfaces after drying. Make sure the piece is dishwasher safe. Place these pieces so that they do not contact dissimilar metals.

Flash vs. Natural light (plus “fill flash”)
The Great Debate: Many photographers will disagree widely on the use of flash—some swear by it, other dislike it. In general, flash is good to use on dark days or sometimes on sunny days to “fill” in shadows (this is often done automatically on modern cameras). Other photographers like to use available “natural” light and manipulate with a number of tricks (see “Reflectors” under Techniques below).

Indoor Flash: Unless you use a very fast film, a tripod, and perhaps even a colorcorrecting filter (to get rid of the yellow of incandescent lightbulbs), you’ll probably want to use a flash indoors: use a flash unless you have a fast film or tripod. Normal flashes tend to create harsh light and “red eye.” To reduce these ill effects, you can buy “bounce” flashes that allow you to bounce the light off a wall, ceiling, or a reflector; or use the “red-eye reduction” feature on your automatic camera.

Creative Thinking and MindMaps
A Mind Map Enables One:

• To clear the mind of paradigms, thus providing space for new creative thought
• To capture and develop “flashes” of insight when they occur
• To explore all the creative possibilities of a given subject
• To encourage more consistent creative thinking
• To create new conceptual frameworks within which previous ideas can be reorganized
• To plan creatively

Why Mind Map?

• Disadvantages of traditional linear notes:
• Energy and time wasted writing down superfluous words
• Other information may be missed while noting down one idea
• Take longer to read and review
• Associations and connections between key words and ideas not readily apparent
  –Attention wanders easily
  –Lack of color and other visual qualities handicap memory

Mind Map – Basics

• Mind maps work the way the brain works
  –Not in nice neat lines
