Matthew: any of those on here talking about watching videos, listening to tunes or laughing at stuff have clearly never had a full on impending doom, thought looping, time dilated, paranoid, depersonalization attack from doing too much weed.
Matthew: I know at least 2 people who have suffered protracted post hallucinogen perception disorder from cannabis use and many others who spend their days in a zombified apathetic state smoking it all day..
Matthew: it is not a remotely harmless drug despite all the people on here trying to be edgy and cool... i’d goes as far as saying LSD and psilocybin are safer mentally.
Rick: Have you been watching Reefer Madness?
Robert: Matthew, ahhh or we just had that sober as children and moved past it like normal folks eventually realizing that we are going to die and doom is impending and that’s fine.
Basia: Psilocybin is famously extremely safe, so yes, it's very possible that it and LSD are both safer than marijuana. Nevertheless, the risk of serious problems from moderate marijuana use is pretty low for most healthy adults. Not zero risk, but pretty low risk for _most_ people.
Rick: Matthew, I only heard of positive effects of marijuana: relax, unwind, de-stress, relax, unwind, de-stress...
Daniel: Basia, healthy adults are low risk true but most peer reviewed studies show a high risk in users 21 and under.Easy to get caught up in the debate always trust the science.
Seamie: Matthew, You're clueless

kings: Take one of the torches off the wall, too. Tell me again the nature of the noise you heard?
servant: It sounds like something heavier than a horse moving around and growling at times.
kings: Oh dear! If it's growling, it must be some type of beastie, I fear. They can carry disease and have big, powerful jaws. Perhaps we should tread with caution.
servant: We almost there my king, right over there. Perhaps we can go a little furhter and have a peek.
kings: Here - you step forward but use this shield. Do you see anything?

PhD F: the question I had about queries was so what we are planning to do is have people look at the summaries and then generate queries ? Are are we going to try and o
Grad G: We we ve just been talking how do we generate queries ? And so that was one suggestion
PhD F: so the question I had is is have we given any thought to how we would generate queries automatically given a summary ? I mean I think that s a whole research topic un unto itself so that it may not be a feasible thing But
PhD B: Should not Landay and his group be in charge of figuring out how to do this ? I mean this is an issue that goes a little bit beyond where pause we are right now
PhD E: Someone wants to know when you are getting picked up Is someone picking you up ?
Professor A: what s our schedule ?
Professor D: Well you still wanted to talk with Liz
Professor A: Let s see you and I need dis no we did the Liz talk
Professor D: And you and I need to Oh oh You already did the Liz talk
Professor A: So so that was the prosody thing
PhD B: We I do not remember it
Professor A: we need to finish the It s already four fifteen
PhD B: I have like no recall memory
Professor A: We need to pause finish this discussion and you and I need a little time for wrap up and quad chart So
Professor D: I m at your disposal So up to you
Professor A: what what s the plan for this discussion ? We should
Professor D: I think we should be able to wind up in another half hour or something you think ?
Grad G: m i Even if that much ?
PhD B: It s interesting that he s got like pause this discussion free
Professor D: Well I mean we still have not talked about the action items from here and so on
Professor A: e e why do not you say five thirty ? I do not Is that OK ? We will probably hit horrible traffic
PhD E: Sounds OK h Thanks bye
Professor A: That s not a lot of time
Grad G: Well in answer to `` is it Landay s problem ? `` he does not have a student who s interested right now in doing anything So he has very little manpower there s very little allocated for him and also he s pretty focused on user interface So I do not think he wants to do information retrieval query generation that sort of stuff
Professor D: well there s going to be these student projects that can do some things but it can not be very deep you I I actually think that that again just as a bootstrap comment if we do have something like summaries then having the people who are involved in the meetings themselves who are cooperative and willing to do yet more come up with with with queries could at least give give Landay an idea of the kind of things that people might want to know I mean ye Right ? If he does not know anything about the area and the people are talking about and and
PhD B: But the people will just look at the summaries or the minutes and re and sort of back generate the queries That s what I m worried about So you might as well just give him the summaries | PhD B thought generating queries went beyond the score of the project and that Landay was more equipped to handle a project like that. Though, PhD B recognized the flaw with people generating queries from the summaries |
person: Fine, be that way. Why don't you just hide in this basket here. I'll never find you.
crab: *using his meaty claws, the crab peaks out from under the basket.*

crab: *the crab charges toward the person, ramming them in the boot.*
person: You are more trouble than you are worth. I'm going for a swim. You better not be here when I get back.
crab: *The crab observes the human as he walks toward the water, and sits atop the towel he was not long ago hiding beneath*
person: That water is too cold! Where's my warm towel. I need to dry off.
crab: *as if speechless, the crab is shocked that this human would return to his domain.*

#Person1#: Hi. Welcome to Joe's Hamburger Restaurant. [Hi] Home of the one-pound super deluxe hot and spicy cheeseburger. Will this be for here or to go?
#Person2#: Uh, to go.
#Person1#: Okay. What would you like today? Would you like to try the one-pound super hot and spicy cheeseburger?
#Person2#: Uh. I don't think so. I'd probably have heartburn for a week after downing that monster.
#Person1#: Well. It's our house special this week, and it comes with fries, and a large specialty drink called 'Everything-but-the-kitchen-sink.'
#Person2#: A what? 'Everything-but-the-kitchen-sink'? What in the world is that?
#Person1#: Well, it's a little mix of everything in a large cup: Pepsi, Sprite, Fanta Orange, and lemonade with crushed ice and a scoop of ice cream.
#Person2#: Ah, that sounds disgusting.
#Person1#: Hey, it'll grow on you.
#Person2#: Nay, I think I'll just order a hamburger with some mustard and lettuce and a glass of water.
#Person1#: Boring. Hey. Would you care for anything else like a side order of amazing cheesy onion rings?
#Person2#: No thank you. Onion rings usually don't agree with me.
#Person1#: Hmm. Okay. Your total comes to ten ninety ($10.90).
#Person2#: Ten ninety? For just a hamburger?! You've got to be kidding
#Person1#: Well, the one-pound super deluxe hamburger is nine dollars.
#Person2#: Hey, I didn't order a one-pound burger. I just wanted a simple burger. That's all.
#Person1#: Well, sir. Joe's Hamburger Restaurant only serves one-pound burgers. [Man!] The one-pound super hot and spicy, the one-pound barbecue burger, the one-pound bacon cheese burger, the one-pound ...
#Person2#: No, no. Those are all huge.
#Person1#: Well, sir. If you really want something smaller [Yeah], you should order from the kids' menu: The half-pound super hot and spicy burger, the half-pound barbecue burger, the half-pound bacon cheese burger, the half-pound ...
#Person2#: No. Those are still giant burgers.
#Person1#: Well, in these parts, we are hearty eaters.
#Person2#: Okay, but you said my total was ten ninety, but the burger only comes to ten bucks. What about the other ninety cents?

#Person1#: Welcome to our show! Today, I am going to show you how to make the perfect mouthwatering sandwich! Are you ready? Let's get started!
#Person2#: Let's start with the basics, bread. Bread is an important ingredient here. You need to remember one thing - choose the bread according to the following criteria, freshness, crumb and color. If you want a closed sandwich I recommend you first toast your bread in a toaster or oven, or grill it slightly until it gets a light brown color.
#Person1#: Now that our bread is ready, let's talk about the ingredients! Of course, each person's palate is different, but I'm going to give you a few tips that you'll be able to use when turning any sandwich into the perfect sandwich. I would strongly recommend you put fresh vegetables in your sandwich.
#Person2#: Do not undervalue them as they play a big role in forming the taste and will make the sandwich more refreshing and light. The best choices here are evident, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, sweet pepper or chilli, lettuce and, of course, herbs, you can't go wrong with them. As for aubergines, mushrooms and asparagus, I would recommend you first grill them slightly with a little touch of olive oil.
#Person1#: Last but not least, we have a wide variety of condiments that we can add to our perfect sandwich. We can be subtle and just add a touch of salt and pepper, or we can combine mustard sauce, mayonnaise, ketchup or even caviar to achieve a stronger flavor! It's always a good idea to cut your sandwich in triangles or manageable pieces to avoid all your ingredients falling out and staining your shirt!
#Person2#: That's all the time we have for today, but join us next time where we'll be going over how to make the perfect lasagna! Till next time! | #Person2# and #Person1# show the audience how to make a sandwich. They give some tips such as putting fresh vegetables and grill aubergines, mushrooms, and asparagus slightly with a little touch of olive oil. They will teach how to make lasagna next time. |
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 | User Interface introduced to use the power button to switch the television on and off. The mute button to switch the volume on and off. The channels buttons, one to nine, or zero to nine. The volume and channel quadrants, from left to right, and up and down arrows, to control the volume and channel. And last, the menu button to manipulate the LCD display. User Interface also suggested that power buttons are usually at the top left or right and the team should decide to choose the right icons, or letters on the buttons. |

#Person1#: Thank you for taking some time off from your busy schedule to answer a few questions about your life.
#Person2#: It's my pleasure.
#Person1#: Could you tell us about an average day in your life?

#Person1#: Even if our company didn't have a dress code, I still think people would wear formal clothing to work.
#Person2#: I wouldn't be so sure... People want to wear what they feel most comfortable in.
#Person1#: Maybe that's true for some positions, but I think the marketing and sales staff would definitely not agree. They dress for success! You can't go out on a sales call if you are dressed in jeans. It's just not respectful to you client.
#Person2#: I think what you wear is so overrated. I would rather have a down-to-earth, honest and solid sales person than a painted, patent leather, designer suite salesman.
#Person1#: It's not as simple as that. People judge you by your appearance, whether you like it or not. So dressing professional is being professional. The image that you portray to others is so important in business. It's your image and how others perceive you that makes the difference between landing or losing a sale.
#Person2#: Maybe you're right, but I'll take my sneakers and jeans any day! | #Person1# thinks the marketing and sales staff should wear formal clothing to work because dressing professionally is important for business, while #Person2# would prefer a down-to-earth salesman and wear comfortable clothing to work. |

monk: I will certainly be of assistance to you sister. Please tell me of this realm, stories, population...Anything at all. I am new here and eager to learn of every place in my travels.
nun: Of course, good Monk. You have traveled to a small Village, in the outskirts of the great city our King lives. This place has a special place in his heart, this Chapel was actually the place the King's parents met. They both attended mass here and the late Queen caught the then King's eye. They were the first royal couple to marry for love instead of an arranged wedding. This is why this place is so beloved by the King!
monk: That is lovely. I am sorry to hear about the queen, but it seems she is in a better place. This seems like a very fine realm with very good leadership in the king. You should feel lucky, not all realms are such. Many are ruled by a merciless king who rules by fear and bloodshed,
Summarize the dialogue | monk is new in the realm and wants to learn about it. The nun tells him that the Chapel is the place where the King's parents met and got married. |

Jayden: The end of normal life. Being pregnant, suffering because of this etc

Lynne Neagle AM: right We will move on then to questions from Llyr
Llyr Gruffydd AM: Thank you I just wanted to pick up on the funding of apprenticeships and the longterm funding because the ESF—the commitments take us to 2023 which takes us beyond any transition period So I just want to hear from you that there are assurances that the apprenticeship programme can be delivered as a whole come what may
Eluned Morgan AM: Well we are fine until 2020 because we have had that guarantee from the Government The issue for us is the n2 that we would have if we do have some kind of transition deal or an agreement with the EU So there is a risk and there is concern beyond 2020 that that would create problems if they do not agree to fund that which is the expectation that we have
Llyr Gruffydd AM: But it is a prospect that this would not be achieved as you foresee
Eluned Morgan AM: Well we do hope because we have had the pledges and commitments from the Government that they will respect what we expected and what was expected by these institutions that have had the commitment of the funding
Llyr Gruffydd AM: So to what extent does that undermine the current work ? Because institutions want to enter into agreements with providers and so on Businesses want to know if they are starting on some sort of journey that they are going to get to the end of it some years down the line That must be undermining a lot of the work that is going on now
Eluned Morgan AM: Well as I said because the guarantee is there until 2020 I think that for now people are willing to go into those agreements and I hope that we will have a better outlook by November of the direction we are moving in But I do not think it is had an impact You have to remember that the number of apprenticeships in Wales is rising while they have collapsed entirely in England So it is important that we do continue and it is important that we do not create an atmosphere here that is going to undermine the confidence of our employers in committing to training in the workplace
Llyr Gruffydd AM: Are you confident that the Government will achieve its targets in this context ?
Eluned Morgan AM: Yes We are on target to reach 100000 apprenticeships I think we are slightly ahead of that target I am pleased to say So of course our hope is to do that But let us be clear : if there is a no deal scenario that will have an impact on the economy and who knows what will happen then to some of these companies that are reliant on the EU | When discussing the official commitments, Eluned Morgan had great confidence in the government that they would provide firm support for the Wales universities. But as for Llyr Gruffydd, he did not think that the institutions would be able to rely on the official funding much, and more importantly, if they would like to enter into the agreements at present, they would interrupt their current work, which would also put themselves in great risk. |
