bat: What are you doing living under a bridge? Don't most dogs live with humans?
animal: Yeah, but my human left me here one day. I don't know where he went, so I just live under here and scare people. There's enough food. I guess he'll come back some day...
bat: I see. If you ever want someplace more comfortable, there's a nice cave not too far away! Nice and dark and lots of rocks to hang from
animal: We wouldn't be on the same sleep/wake schedule though. Plus, I don't really like to hang from rocks. There is some dry space down here...
bat: Ah, I see. I don't normally sleep here, but there were so many mosquitoes here by the river that I stayed out eating until sunrise! Then I felt like a nap
animal: Do you have any food?
bat: Not with me. More bugs will come out when the sun gets lower. I hear a little spider, but she's probably not very tasty
animal: Ew, spiders!
bat: What food do dogs eat?

beaver: Is that what the text on the walls warns of?
bug: I have spent years in this cave trying to figure out what this meant. Some eerie things happen here from time to time like a swarming of voices and weird chants. Maybe they tell the tale of the bones in this cave.
beaver: That does not make it sound too safe.
bug: Take a look at those old texts. What story do you think they tell? I think one of those tells a story about a witch who once made this cave her home. She was visited by many close and afar, so much so that she never left here. It looks like every person here since has died here in this cave unable to escape the things this cave does to people.
beaver: Perhaps it is best that I head back to my damn all things considered.
bug: Hanging around here is not too bad as an animal. Maybe the witch could come back and grant us something special?
beaver: I wonder how powerful she is.

#Person1#: Hi, Jane. What's so interesting?
#Person2#: What? Oh, hi, Tom. I am reading an article on the societies of the Ice Age.
#Person1#: The Ice Age. There weren't many societies then, just a bunch of cave people.
#Person2#: That's what people used to think. But a new exhibit at the American Museum on Natural History shows that the Ice Age people were surprisingly advanced.
#Person1#: Oh, really? In what way?
#Person2#: Well, the Ice Age people created language, art and music as we know it. And they didn't live in caves. They built their own shelters.
#Person1#: What did they build them with? The odd weather would have killed most of the trees, so they couldn't have used wood.
#Person2#: In some of the warmer places, they did build houses out of wood.
#Person1#: How did they stay warm?
#Person2#: Well, it says that in the early Ice Age, they often faced their homes toward the south to use the sun for heat.
#Person1#: That is pretty smart. Can I read that magazine article when you have finished? I am really interested in it.

Hon. Filomena Tassi (Minister of Labour): Thank you Mr Chair I would like to thank the member for Hamilton Mountain for that question and for his advocacy on this file I remind the member that since 2015 one of our first initiatives was the repealing of Bills C525 and C377 which were antiunion legislation Since then we have implemented a number of measures to protect workers We have increased the wage earner protection program by extending it from four weeks to seven weeks The member is well aware that in 2019
The Acting Chair (Mr. Bruce Stanton): We will now go back to Mr Duvall
Mr. Scott Duvall: Mr Chair the changes the government made last year to bankruptcy insolvency laws were largely cosmetic and will not protect workers and pensioners livelihoods once bankruptcy hits The government can protect severance termination pay pensions and benefits from corporate theft but will they do it yes or no ?
Hon. Filomena Tassi: Mr Chair we made a number of significant changes in budget 2019 including that the process for the CCAA be more open and transparent We mandated that those who are coming to the process have to be honest and truthful One thing we heard in the consultations was the ability for courts to set aside executive bonuses and we implemented all those changes because we want to continue to protect pensioners
The Acting Chair (Mr. Bruce Stanton): You have time for a short question Mr Duvall
Mr. Scott Duvall: Thanks Mr Chair The minister is not answering the question Canadian workers are worried This is about their livelihoods Will the government fix the lawsyes or noto protect workers and pensioners rights ?
Hon. Filomena Tassi: Mr Chair we have made amendments and we are going to continue to make amendments We want to absolutely ensure that pensions are protected I look forward to working collaboratively with the member

missionary: But...I have been speaking for the past twenty minutes! What more do you wish to know?
family member: Well what is your mission!?
missionary: Ah, yes! Well. The Most Holy Mission of the Church is to shed our mortal trappings, freeing our souls to ascend into the next plane!
family member: Can I invite my family?
missionary: Why of course! The spiritual pursuits are not exclusionary to anyone wishing to become a disciple.
family member: WIll there be food
missionary: Only the most pure of Blessed Water, and simple meals of mutton with rice.
family member: What about burgers? I enjoy a good burger?
missionary: See, these are the sort of attachments that we seek to shed. You cannot ascend if you have earthly desires weighing you down.
family member: Well I do not want to shed my burger
missionary: You would give up the opportunity at a pure soul for the mere flesh of a common cow?
family member: Well can I eat a pure soul? Does it taste good?

lector: I must confess that I am nervous and a little scared. It is, though, the Lord's work. Did Christ himself not cast demons out of a man and into pigs?
priests: Exactly. Don't be too nervous. You can help me officiate a wedding afer.
lector: A busy day, indeed. First we save a man and then we shackle another!
priests: Always a busy day doing the Lord's work!
lector: Each day is holy and our work is dedicated to Him. May I ask who the possessed person is? It isn't Joel, is it? If it is then it may no be possession .. it may just be a little to much of the wild mushrooms in his breakfast.

Project Manager: No no that is I think we should look at the ones that like where s where people said four where it looks like we might want to discuss changing an aspect of the remote
Marketing: I did not know how else to do it Well the worst ones were three point one Do does every ones have the slide ? Slide show Material technologically innovative do you want to change it ? What are the suggestions ? I do not know anyone ?
User Interface: Which one is that again sorry ? Three point one ?
Marketing: that it is three point one was not that good Four point one
Project Manager: See I am having I am having trouble imagining the is it going to be the size like the the controller ? It or bigger ?
Industrial Designer: I think the wheel would probably be mm
User Interface: What if we just smash all the vegetables down flat ? And like then it you could hold it in your hand better
Industrial Designer: I think the base would definitely be larger because some of these are not as easy to hold They are kind of smallish
Project Manager: No but I imagine even if it was bigger like if it is round and it is big then you you can not get that is why remote controls are long because you have that thumb kind of so c they could all be bananas and cucumbers but I do not s I I personally do not think this is comfortable to to sit there like it is an awkward position
User Interface: I did not But like if if you just squash them flat like and you made it flat
Industrial Designer: Well if they are that s stress ball stuff they would be pretty squishable Mm
User Interface: But it is still too big I think in your hand
Project Manager: And would it even resemble fruit that way ?
User Interface: like certain ones you would have to limit the fruit selection like you could probably do a strawberry still I think the broccoli would be out You could do although the broccoli is quite comfortable I have to say like sorta like a joystick
Project Manager: that I I when you were holding that before it actually looked
User Interface: I do not know So
Marketing: Are there any fruits that look like broccoli no ?
Industrial Designer: Not that I can think of Rhubarb
Marketing: I think that broccoli is my favourite actually
User Interface: I think we need not
Project Manager: What if the it was just patterns on like we we chose the shape or the sh shape could be whatever we wanted and then it would just be like a design on the rubber You know like like just a printed or coloured
Industrial Designer: So it is just colour and not necessarily the shape of a strawberry
Project Manager: Or I mean we could even have fruit like around But if we if we need
Marketing: and just have the colour match or something
Project Manager: And if we want to incorporate the fruit thing somehow there might be I mean if it if it in if it conflicts with the comfort of actually holdi holding the
User Interface: Because noone wants to hold a remote that is uncomfortable obviously Or like I do not know some of them you can kind of think see as like like you could if it was only this you know if it was shaped like that and it just had that But you see the problem is you have to attach that and this has to be detachable So like maybe that is just too big
Project Manager: Well see th the reason the broccoli works is you can kind of hold it like that which is a nice kind of
User Interface: it is sorta like a joystick
Project Manager: I mean is there some way we could make it this kind of shape ?
Industrial Designer: We could make it that shape but just have different colours and call them the different fruits We went with shape because we were having fun with the playdough
Project Manager: Or even like like you said like a joystick like that You know ?
User Interface: Like we could do I am trying to think of other sha like fruits that are oddly shaped
Project Manager: Because that I think I mean that fits the whole round iPod idea And you still have the comfort of holding it like that And you could like if it is like this you could put fruit designs and stuff on that part But I mean it do we have any other ideas about that ?
User Interface: We could tr I do not know
Marketing: Think the critical ones came out to be that one Batteries easy to insert for some reason which can be easily I think that is not a problem any more
Project Manager: The batteries are going in the back ?
Industrial Designer: That everyone gave that a one or a two they would probably be either on the front or the side of the remote
Project Manager: The reason I I ga I did not give it a one I think I gave it a three because I thought you would have to like unc clip
Industrial Designer: No I imagine there would be sort of a hatch door
Project Manager: no you could Just like any other one
Industrial Designer: like on a normal remote So it would probably either in the f no it can not be in the front because the IRs right there but it would be on one of the sides probably
Marketing: I think everyone is under three anyway So I think it is those are the only two points
User Interface: Cool Well the broccoli I guess wins
Industrial Designer: I would agree with changing the shape I was just having fun making strawberries and stuff
User Interface: We were a bit off task so I can not think of any So we will have to like Mm I do not know You could make the touch pad in th in different shapes but then that kind of redesigns the whole project like
Industrial Designer: It might also sort of annoy people if we get used to having the buttons in one shape
User Interface: but you could do like that is true
Project Manager: And it would probably cost more to produce because they are irregular
Industrial Designer: I bet having different colours is a lot cheaper than having different shapes too
Project Manager: Which is why printing might be like just printing the fruit on fruit
|
Instead of changing the shape of the remote, the group first discussed changing the batteries because some group mates gave a point under three. However, Marketing thought batteries were easy to insert so it would not be a problem anymore. In addition, all the group members gave the shape of the remote only two points. And they needed to change the most critical one. The shape and the squishiness of the remote were an innovation in terms of technology. Therefore, they all agreed to change the shape.

#Person1#: Hello, Chandler! How are you?
#Person2#: Fine. And you?
#Person1#: Just so so. I am too tired. My company has been holding too many training sessions lately.
#Person2#: That's good. Not evey company provides employees with training opportunity. It seems that your company wants to further develop their employees and encourage the lifelong learning.
#Person1#: Good? ! For them but not to me.
#Person2#: So, what's the problem?
#Person1#: We have to participate in training after a busy day and during the weekend. You know, after work all you want to do is to throw yourself onto your bed. And during the weekend, you just want to stay at home and enjoy a family dinner.
#Person2#: Yes, you are right. But one should keep learning daily to maintain our keen mental power and to expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning drives us to sharp our power of reasoning, analysis and judgement.
#Person1#: Yes, I agree with you on the point. But why couldn't the training be held during the working day instead of weekend?
#Person2#: Yes, you are right. I think weekend is the time for family gathering and rest. Maybe you could make that suggestion to your boss.

#Person1# complains to Chandler that #Person1#'s company holds too many training sessions occupying much of their spare time. Chandler thinks training is necessary but agrees that weekends shouldn't be occupied.

traveler: What wonderful service to have worked for the king so long. I hope he rewards you. Yes, I am happy to say that this is my last time travelling. I am getting older. I have accepted the King's offer to work with the apothecary.
her maid: The apothecary? What a splendid job. How did you meet the king? It appears he trusts you deeply.
traveler: Yes, I have been bringing him things from all over the world from when he first became king. We trust each other. He trusts me with his life, especially to mix tonics and things for him now. They will be readying my new part of the castle in a week or so.
her maid: That would require great trust. Does he still use the taste tester to assure that his drinks and food are not poisoned?
traveler: Most definitely! Even things that the apothecary makes can be tampered with. One can never be too careful. I hope I am not trading one stressful job for another but we will see.

Carol: <file_photo>
Tonia: All the very best to you, dear Carol and Charles, in 2019!
Carol: Thank you my Dear :* :*
Carol: How are you? Enjoying Cuba?
Tonia: The country is a bit tough. Very poor, hard living conditions. So the stay here is a bit too long for my liking.
Carol: And what does Mark say? He'd been to Cuba before, hadn't he?
Tonia: Yes, some 20 years ago! No comparison. He says it's much worse now. But he seems to enjoy every moment of our stay. Maybe with the exception of loud music all the time.
Carol: Do they party every night?! Is it live music?
Tonia: Everything! In Cuba nobody cares about such nonsense as night rest of the neighbours. It is noisy, and I mean NOISY, at all hours. People, cars, children, music, dogs...
Carol: That sounds exactly like our black folk here!!
Carol: It must be difficult when you plan your trips to predict a perfect length of a stay in one place. Which town was so bad?
Tonia: Havana Vieja. Add to the noise a narrow street, windows that can't be closed and the proximity to a major thoroughfare.
Carol: I got it! Like in a township.
Tonia: Are they so noisy? Can't remember really. Or, truth to tell, was never in any of them but only driving thru.
Carol: My domestic helper, who is black and obviously lives in a township, is always complaining that she can't sleep from the partying in her neighbourhood.
Tonia: When it gets bad, I take my earplugs and Mark another drink ;-)) Nothing more one can do!
Tonia: How is Charles? Is his operation in a week's time or so?
Carol: He's doing well, thank you. It's on the 23rd and he's not looking forward to it. But we are coping!
Tonia: Poor Charlie! Is he afraid of pain? Or of the complete anesthetics? Or complications?
Carol: A combination of them all, I guess. But he doesn't talk much about it and I don't insist.
Tonia: Right. Mark will be getting his op in mid February. Too early to even start being apprehensive.
Carol: You two just enjoy your holidays and make the most of it!
Tonia: Sure! After all it is Caribbean!
Tonia: <file_photo>
Carol: Keep it up!

Carol and Mark are in Cuba. Carol is not fond of her stay because of the noise. Mark will have an operation on the 23rd.

king: Do you really mean so? I've had many restless nights mourning my beloved Elizabeth and wanting to make this kingdom prosper, but I feel as though it's not enough. I try to be brave most times, but right now I feel as though I'm at my ends
priest: You should be proud of the job you have done. I know the people of your kingdom are. I dont know one villager who wouldnt lay down their life for you.
king: Thank you, priest. One more thing. Is it a sin, or against God's holy word, to lead all theses men into battle knowing how little chance they have with surviving? While I don't like admitting it, the other kingdom against ours is way too powerful.
priest: Well your highness, I think if it was for improper reasons it would be against god. Since we did not start this war and they wish to enslave our people we have no other option.
king: You're right. Sorry for this inconvenience priest, and thank you for being helpful ears.

townperson: What will you do for shelter and food if you pursue a life of danger and adventure in the forest?
