Team Fortress 2 
 Pyros can help against Übercharged players by pushing them back with an "air blast" or "compression blast".
Team Fortress 2 
 The air blast can also reflect projectiles, such as grenades or rockets, back at the enemy team, which will inflict bonus damage.
Team Fortress 2 
 The abilities of these classes make them best for defending things their team needs, such as control points, briefcases, and carts.
Team Fortress 2 
 Grenades will explode immediately if you hit a player before the grenade hits the ground, or a few seconds after being shot if they do not hit anything.
Team Fortress 2 
 The shield lets the Demoman charge forward at high speeds, and do more damage with his close-ranged weapon.
Team Fortress 2 
 His sticky bombs do great damage, and can be used to 'sticky jump' much like how a Soldier can rocket jump.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Heavy Weapons Guy, also known as the Heavy, is a middle-aged man from the Soviet Union who is built like a tank.
Team Fortress 2 
 The minigun does by far the most damage at close range of any gun in the game, due to its high fire rate and damage.
Team Fortress 2 
 It uses a lot of ammunition very quickly, so if he runs out, he can use his shotgun or his fists to punch enemies to death.
Team Fortress 2 
 Spies and Snipers are useful for killing Heavies because they are capable of doing high damage instantly with backstabs (Spy) and headshots (Sniper).
Team Fortress 2 
 His first building, the Sentry Gun, is a non-moving gun that targets enemies and shoots automatically.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Engineer himself is weak, and poorly placed Sentries can be blown up by smart Soldiers and Demomen.
Team Fortress 2 
 Their abilities are there to help the team, so they do not typically engage in direct combat, but can if they must.
Team Fortress 2 
 He has a machine called the Medigun which, when pointed at a teammate, slowly restores their health.
Team Fortress 2 
 After healing for a few minutes, the Medic is able to use an Übercharge, which makes him and his heal target invincible for a few seconds.
Team Fortress 2 
 Since he loses almost every direct fight, he usually stays with a teammate who he heals, called a 'Medic Buddy' or 'Pocket'.
Team Fortress 2 
 He often stays in one area away from the main battlefield and shoots enemies from a distance using careful aim.
Team Fortress 2 
 He has a watch which makes him invisible for short periods of time, and a cigarette case with disguises in it.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Spy can also place 'sappers' on enemy buildings, hurting them and turning them off until an Engineer can remove the sapper.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Pyro is able to easily stop him, as even when he turns invisible or is disguised, players can still see the fire on him.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Spy is considered a "pick class", meaning he is very dispensable but also very useful to get certain kills.
Team Fortress 2 
 There are several different ways the game can be played, each with different goals for the two opposing teams.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Payload game mode has the offensive team pushing a cart with a bomb on it along a track while the defending team tries to stop them.
Team Fortress 2 
 If the offensive team cannot get the cart to the end of the track before the time limit runs out, they lose.
Team Fortress 2 
 Each Checkpoint the offensive team pushes the cart over will give them extra time to get the cart to the end of the track.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve later added a race mode to Payload maps, where both teams push a cart along a track to the other team's base.
Team Fortress 2 
 Traditional Control Point maps will go into Sudden Death (or Stalemate) if no team captures all the control points before times runs out.
Team Fortress 2 
 BLU wins if it captures all of RED's points, but RED wins if the timer runs out before BLU can capture them all.
Team Fortress 2 
 Points may only be captured in a set order (though some maps, such as Gravel Pit and Steel, may make exceptions).
Team Fortress 2 
 Each game is randomly selected from the six available layouts in a 'point against point' game where both teams must capture the opposite point while defending their own.
Team Fortress 2 
 After a team successfully captures the opposite point, the next round takes place in a different area of the map which is also randomly selected.
Team Fortress 2 
 If the base point is captured (in Hydro, the Radar Dish for RED, the Power Plant for BLU), the attacking team wins the game.
Team Fortress 2 
 Unlike Standard Control Point, once a team has all three points they win regardless of how much capture progress the other team has.
Team Fortress 2 
 The goal is for one team to grab the other team's briefcase and bring it back to their own base, while defending their own briefcase.
Team Fortress 2 
 You must capture the enemy intelligence 3 times in order to win the game, but server modifications can alter the number.
Team Fortress 2 
 When a player carrying the briefcase is killed, the intelligence is on the ground and returns to its base after a 60 second time period.
Team Fortress 2 
 The player who dropped the intelligence or his team can pick up the briefcase before it returns and still capture it.
Team Fortress 2 
 If a player drops the intelligence by falling into a bottomless pit, it automatically returns to its base.
Team Fortress 2 
 In King of the Hill mode, two teams fight to gain control over one point which is in the center of the map.
Team Fortress 2 
 This happens over and over again until one team successfully holds the point for three minutes in total.
Team Fortress 2 
 Players can use melee weapons and weapons that don't have firepower but cannot use guns, rocket launchers, flame throwers, stickybomb launchers, or grenade launchers.
Team Fortress 2 
 In this game mode, an initially neutral briefcase of Australium must be transported to Poopy Joe's rocket before the opposing team can do the same.
Team Fortress 2 
 If a player picks up the Australium and is killed while holding it, only players from the same team as the dead briefcase carrier can pick it up again.
Team Fortress 2 
 If the team fails to do so within a few seconds, the briefcase is sent back to its original position.
Team Fortress 2 
 The player who has hold of the Australium must be on the platform that is raised to the compartment at the head of the rocket and must stay on the platform as the Australium is placed into the compartment, launching the rocket and winning the round.
Team Fortress 2 
 In Mann vs. Machine (commonly abbreviated as MvM), a team of six players (all wearing RED uniforms) must stop hordes of robots divided into waves from deploying a portable bomb into their base.
Team Fortress 2

Team Fortress 2 
 In Mann Up mode, players complete "Tours" using "Tour of Duty Tickets" or "Squad Surplus Vouchers" they have bought from the online store, known as the Mann Co. Store.
Team Fortress 2 
 Completing Tours and Operations will give the players "loot" or special in-game cosmetic items players use to customize their character.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve Corporation posted several animations using their Source Film Maker (commonly abbreviated as SFM) program from 2009 to 2012.

Team Fortress 2 
 Valve began developing Team Fortress 2 as a separate retail game using one of Valve's own game engines, GoldSrc.
Team Fortress 2 
 In 1999, Valve released Team Fortress Classic, a port of the original Team Fortress, as a free Half-Life mod.
Team Fortress 2 
 Team Fortress Classic was developed using the publicly available Half-Life software development kit as an example to the community and industry of the flexibility of the Half-Life game.
Team Fortress 2 
 Unlike the original Team Fortress, Valve originally planned Team Fortress 2 to have a modern war theme.
Team Fortress 2 
 It would feature a command hierarchy including a Commander class, parachute drops over enemy territory, networked voice communication, and many other unique features.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Commander class played similarly to a real-time strategy game, with the player viewing the game from a bird's-eye perspective and issuing orders to players and AI-controlled soldiers.
Team Fortress 2 
 At E3 1999, Valve had showcased new technologies that they had developed while making Team Fortress 2.
Team Fortress 2 
 This included parametric animation, which blended animations for smoother, more lifelike movement.<ref name="ptf tf2 tech">{{cite web |url=http://www.planetfortress.com/tf2/gameinfo/technology.shtml |title=Team Fortress 2: Technology |publisher=PlanetFortress |access-date=April 5, 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070601173137/http://www.planetfortress.com/tf2/gameinfo/technology.shtml |archive-date=June 1, 2007 |df=mdy }}</ref> The game also showcased Intel's multi-resolution mesh technology, which increased performance for the game by reducing detail of on-screen elements that are far away from the screen.
Team Fortress 2 
 They stated that they delayed Team Fortress 2 because they were going to make Team Fortress 2 run on an engine they own, the Source engine.
Team Fortress 2 
 After their official announcement of the delay of Team Fortress 2, Valve stopped releasing information about the game.
Team Fortress 2 
 Walker and Cook worked on various other Valve projects; Walker was project lead on Half-Life 2: Episode One and Cook became a Steam developer.
Team Fortress 2 
 It was a long-anticipated game that had seen years of development, and was often mentioned alongside another much-delayed game, Duke Nukem Forever.
Team Fortress 2 
 Walker later stated that Valve built "three to four" different versions of Team Fortress 2 before settling on their final design.
Team Fortress 2 
 Shortly before the release of Half-Life 2 in 2004, Valve's marketing director Doug Lombardi confirmed that Team Fortress 2 was still in development.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve reintroduced Team Fortress 2 at the July 2006 EA Summer Showcase event with a much different visual design.
Team Fortress 2 
 Instead of having realistic visual design like other Valve games, Team Fortress 2 features a cartoon-like visual style influenced by 20th-century commercial illustrations and the artwork of J. C. Leyendecker, Dean Cornwell, and Norman Rockwell, achieved through a visual technique called Gooch shading.
Team Fortress 2 
 Team Fortress 2 was first launched with the Source engine's new dynamic lighting, shadowing and soft particle technologies, and gave the same visual enhancements to Half-Life 2: Episode Two, another one of their games.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve abandoned the realistic style when it became impossible to balance it with the unrealistic gameplay.
Team Fortress 2 
 For example, it is not realistic to have opposing armies to construct heavily detailed bases directly next to each other.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Commander class was abandoned because players would simply refuse to follow the player's orders.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve designed each character, team, and equipped weapon to be easy to identify, even at long range.
Team Fortress 2 
 The voices for each of the classes were based on imagining what people from the 1960s would expect the classes to have sounded like, according to writer Chet Faliszek.
Team Fortress 2 
 Enemy buildings have a complex set of pathways that the player must go through to reach the objectives.
Team Fortress 2 
 The bases hide exaggerated super weapons such as laser cannons, nuclear warheads, and missile launch facilities, taking the role of objectives.
Team Fortress 2 
 The maps are designed to have little visual clutter and have a theme, as well as have enough careful attention to effective visual design while still allowing enemies to be spotted more easily.
Team Fortress 2 
 The textures used in-game are based on photos that are filtered and improved by hand, making them look visually appealing and giving Team Fortress 2 its distinct look.
Team Fortress 2 
 On the other hand, BLU bases use cool colors (e.g. blue), industrial materials, and orthogonal shapes (e.g. squares).
Team Fortress 2 
 During the July 2006 Electronic Arts press conference, Valve revealed that Team Fortress 2 would arrive as the multiplayer component of The Orange Box.
Team Fortress 2 
 In a conference trailer, the whimsical new visual style of Team Fortress 2 of all nine mercenary classes were shown.
Team Fortress 2 
 Managing director of Valve Gabe Newell said that the company's goal was to create "the best looking and best-playing class-based multiplayer game".
Team Fortress 2 
 On the same date, a the same beta release of the entire Team Fortress 2 game was made available for customers who had pre-purchased The Orange Box, as well as for customers who had activated their Black Box coupon.
Team Fortress 2 
 The game was released on October 10, 2007, both as a standalone product via Steam and at retail stores as part of The Orange Box compilation pack.
Team Fortress 2 
 Both the Steam version and the retail The Orange Box compilation packs were priced at each gaming platform's recommended retail price.
Team Fortress 2 
 The Orange Box also contains Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, and Portal.
Team Fortress 2 
 Valve offered The Orange Box'' at a ten percent discount for those who pre-purchased it on Steam before the October 10 release, as well as the opportunity to participate in the beta test.

Fecundity 
 In biology and demography, fecundity is the ability to reproduce of an organism or population, measured by the number of gametes (eggs), seed set or asexual propagules.
Fecundity 
 Fecundity is under both genetic and environmental control, and is the major measure of biological fitness.
Fecundity 
 Fecundity can increase or decrease in a population according to current conditions and certain regulating factors.
Fecundity 
 For instance, in times of hardship for a population such as a lack of food, juvenile and eventually adult fecundity may decrease.
Fecundity 
 In the philosophy of science, 'fecundity' refers to the ability of a scientific theory to open new lines of theoretical inquiry.

 In 1926 when de Valera left Sinn Féin to found his own republican party, Fianna Fáil, Ó Ceallaigh followed him, becoming one of the party's founding members.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 In 1932, when de Valera, was appointed President of the Executive Council (prime minister) of the Irish Free State he made Ó Ceallaigh Minister for Local Government.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 Ó Ceallaigh often tried to publicly humiliate the Governor-General of the Irish Free State, James McNeill.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 Stunts such as withdrawing the Irish Army's band from playing at diplomatic functions which the Governor-General attended, or in one notorious case the sight of O'Kelly and Defence Minister Frank Aiken storming out of a diplomatic function at the French Legation when McNeill, the guest of honour, arrived, damaged Ó Ceallaigh's reputation and image, particularly when the campaign backfired.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 Instead former Fianna Fáil TD, Domhnall Ua Buachalla from County Kildare, would be the last Governor-General.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 In 1938, many thought that de Valera wanted to make Ó Ceallaigh the Fianna Fáil choice to become President of Ireland, under the new Irish constitution, Bunreacht na hÉireann.
Séan T. O'Kelly

Séan T. O'Kelly 
 He retired at the end of his second term in 1959, to be replaced by his old friend, Éamon de Valera.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 Ó Ceallaigh did not refer any Bills to the Supreme Court to see if they were legal, but he did ask  his official advisors, called the Council of State, if he should refer the Health Bill, 1947 but he decided not to.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 de Valera often thought that Ó Ceallaigh either deliberately or accidentally leaked information to the Knights of Columbanus, and the Church leaders.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 Ó Ceallaigh ensured that his first state visit, following the creation of the Republic of Ireland in 1949, was to the Vatican to meet Pope Pius XII.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 This is why he was not given the papal Order of Christ which was given to many Catholic heads of state.
Séan T. O'Kelly 
 When he retired as president in 1959, he was described as a model President by the normally hostile Irish Times newspaper.
Séan T. O'Kelly

 Léo Delibes (born St. Germain-du-Val, France, 21 February 1836; died St. Germain-du-Val 16 January 1891) was a French composer of Romantic music.
Léo Delibes 
 He is particularly famous for his ballets, especially Coppélia, and operettas and operas, of which Lakmé is the most famous.
Léo Delibes 
 Her father, the composer’s grandfather, had been a baritone in the Opéra-Comique and she had a brother who was an organist and professor at the Paris Conservatoire.
Léo Delibes 
 When Delibes’s father died in 1847 his family moved to Paris so that the young Léo, who was 11, could continue having a good musical education.
Léo Delibes 
 At first he did well in his music lessons and won prizes, but after a few years he no longer won any prizes.
Léo Delibes 
 He never tried to win the Prix de Rome which is what all French students of composition normally want to do.
Léo Delibes 
 In 1864 he became chorus master at the Opéra where he coached the chorus to sing many famous operas.
Léo Delibes 
 Delibes started to compose at a time when ballet had become less popular in France than it had been earlier.
Léo Delibes 
 Around the time of the Revolution there had been lots of performances of ballet, but during the 19th century there was less interest with the exception of La Sylphide and Giselle.
Léo Delibes 
 At one time he thought he ought to compose like Wagner, using richer harmonies and leitmotifs, but fortunately he chose not to, following instead the style to which he was so well suited.
Léo Delibes 
 Coppélia is in the repertoire of all major ballet companies, and several of its tunes are familiar to people even if they do not know where they come from.
Léo Delibes 
 The Flower duet from Lakmé became particularly well known in recent years through an advert for British Airways.
