lawyer: Tell me about it
king: As you may have heard, our son the Prince is engaged to be married. It was a promise I made long ago when it was politically convenient. However, he has fallen in love with another and is refusing to honor my deal. Is there a way out of the marriage, legally, that would save us from war?

User Interface: Yes well let us talk about the interface concept first I will I will discuss the buttons we just chose show you some samples discuss some colours and design maybe already And my personal preferences Well we chose the power button to switch the television on and off The bu the mute button to switch the volume on and o on and off The channels buttons one to nine and off zero to nine and the button to choose higher channels than nine the volume and channel quadrants left and right up and down arrows to do the volume and channel And the menu menu button to man manipulate the LCD display I found some interesting samples Examples well what is pretty standard is that it is that they are all pretty high Large and and and pretty thin and and long
Marketing: A lot a lot of buttons buttons
User Interface: power buttons are mostly at the top left or right well we see the the the same arrows Like there And well arrow b buttons can be blue And what is interesting is the the the icons on the buttons Some buttons have icons like the play and stop but we do not use that But these we we have to choose the right icons or or letters this is the V for volume but they are both a V So it is it is not really very clear what is the function of that
Project Manager: Can you go back one page ? For the menu what do we use for that ? We do not have buttons for the menu Or we may have to use channel of the volume and channel
User Interface: I thought that was our idea
Project Manager: You have to put it on the
User Interface: Or or this And that the menu button is
Project Manager: but has to be clear that you can use the arrows
User Interface: so the The icons on the arrows as well you mean
Project Manager: Mmhmm Yes The second one
User Interface: well that is something to think about
Industrial Designer: maybe I will have something in my presentation And you will see it
User Interface: well I do not I do not know if we have to discuss this already or in the next meeting But as we have to to to design the the case and the whole remote control in our our our corporate company colours and the logo I would recommend a yellow case round edges The logo at the bottom And well maybe each each set of buttons has has his own colour So it is good recognisable K so I think
Project Manager: No it is not flower power
User Interface: But No no no But this has to be has to be trendy and and so good good icons on the buttons and and big buttons is my personal opinion | The team believed that there were always large and many buttons on the standard remote control. To design its unique device, they decided on a pure color one with arrows to eliminate the number of buttons used. They also planned to incorporate the company logo. Moreover, User Interface suggested a set of buttons with its own color to make it recognizable. But this idea was turned down by Project Manager. |

villager: Oh well, there was just a ... tiny, small problem I encountered when traversing through the Forbidden Forest. But I'm sure it couldn't have possibly be bothered to follow me... no surely not...
person: I'm intrigued, what came upon you to make such a perilous journey through that forest?
villager: Well I had heard a rumor of a fabulous Ring that could be found there. The wearer of it would be invisible to all, which would allow me to explore the forest freely. What the rumors FAILED to mention, however, is that there is a rather ornery dragon that seems to have taken a fancy to it.
person: I dare say, if that Dragon were to come after you... Well I better take this and run!
villager: Oi, give that back now! That's got my grannies famous stale bread recipe in it!
person: You can have it, then! No wonder that smell.
villager: Ugh, it's all dusty now! Doesn't anyone ever mop the floors here?

#Person2#: I have a Promissory Note, but it's not called that. It's a Bill of Exchange.
#Person1#: Similar to a Promissory Note, yes. I can deal with that for you right here. The difference between a Promissory Note and a Bill of Exchange is that this product is transferable and can bind one party to pay a third party that was not involved in its creation.
#Person2#: So, even if someone wasn't directly involved, they can become involved? Like the bank you cash it in?
#Person1#: That's right. We didn't issue it to you, but technically we are buying it from you. So, we become involved.
#Person2#: I see. Sorry about this, I'm new in this job and I've never even seen one of these before! My boss just told me to come here and sort it out.

Lynne Neagle AM: You have referred to training already The committees got two concerns really One is about preparedness in ITE to teach the Welsh bac so I do not know if you want to expand on how teachers are being skilled up at that level to deliver the Welsh bac effectively
Kirsty Williams AM: In the accreditation process which has not been without its pain and some significant decisions made in that regard the criteria for the ITE programmes note that and I am going to quote it : Teachers should be able to help children and young people to make links across their learning bringing together different aspects to examine for example important topics such as citizenship enterprise financial capability and sustainability So the prime driver for our ITE reforms obviously is the preparedness for Successful Futures but in preparing our teachers to be in a position to successfully deliver that those are also the pedagogical principles and that shift in pedagogy that we see aligned to the Welsh baccalaureate So it is actually a part of the accreditation process that the curriculum that the new ITE providers will have to deliver—ensuring that teachers have those skills and have that confidence to be able to deliver their teaching in a way that as I said ensures that we successfully deliver on Donaldson but also on the same pedagogical principles that are needed for the successful delivery of the Welsh bac | On the topic of teachers' training, Kirsty Williams quoted from the ITE programmes that Teachers should be able to help children and young people to make links across their learning, bringing together different aspects to examine important topics such as citizenship, enterprise, financial capability and sustainability. The shifts in pedagogical principles were expected accordingly. |
