Konami Introduces PES Manager App Pre-Launch Campaign for IOS & Android
Today, Konami announced a pre-launch campaign for a new mobile gaming app called "PES MANAGER". PES MANAGER is a full-scale soccer/football game application, featuring realistic matches presented in 3D, more than 1,500 star player badges with real player pictures from various EU leagues, and intuitive and easy controls. PES MANAGER is known as "World Soccer Collection S" worldwide and is the highest selling soccer game app in Japan.
PES MANAGER will be available in English for both iOS and Android in 55 countries. The pre-launch campaign began last week and offers players a chance to receive a "Player Badge" that they can use to gain an early competitive advantage once the game launches.
Campaign participants receive their starter player badge through performing a shootout challenge which can be done up to three times in one 24 hour period. After seeing the player badge that has been unlocked participants can either choose to keep the badge or try again. Players can also unlock another shootout session by sharing the pre-launch campaign on social media sites.

I have faith that a number of like-minded people will make it back out, too. And when we find each other again, cold, shaking, tired, and uncertain of the future, know that we will still be alive. There will always be that.

Table 1 shows a summary of recommendations presented in the previous Analysis and Recommendations post. Based on these suggestions, a redesign of the Year 12 Information Technology Systems (ITS) unit will be presented to target a deeper level of inquiry and provide a more aspirational inquiry learning experience.
Table 2 offers an outline of the unit with additions to the unit that would provide a deeper level of inquiry, based on previous recommendations aligning with inquiry theories and concepts. These theories will be explained throughout the post.
Unit Description (changes to incorporate recommendations are in red)
This unit of work focuses on delivery of a website critique and a website redesign for a client. In this unit students learn about website design principles and the development of websites through HTML and CSS. The unit is intended to run for one term.
Learning Outcomes:
- Website design principles
- Website coding skills using HTML and CSS
- Critique a website for a non-profit organisation
- Publicly share the critique (publish, broadcast, or upload to web-based digital portfolio)
- Redesign a website for a non-profit organisation based on the client's requirements
- Create the website for a non-profit organisation using HTML and CSS and be able to justify the design to the client
- Publicly share the website (publish, host, or upload to web-based digital portfolio)
- Evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the code and website with a focus on socio-cultural contexts
- Publicly share the evaluation (publish, broadcast, or upload to web-based digital portfolio)
Assessment – client brief
You work for a consulting business that assists non-profit organisations with their web presence. You are required to create a website critique to present to the client, which critically analyses their existing website, using appropriate criteria. As part of the critique you are to redesign the home page only of the website and present a "mockup" of your recommended improvements and justify the choices you have made in your redesign. You are then required to create the website in HTML and CSS code to present to the client based on your recommendations in your critique, along with an evaluation of the efficiency and effectiveness of the website redesign. You must share your critique, website, and evaluation on a public platform.
Figure 1 shows the original rubric used to assess the task. Figure 2 shows the rubric with revisions added and highlighted in yellow. The additions are to assess the "Sharing" category within Bloom's Digital Taxonomy (Turcsányi-Szabó, Márta, 2012) and communication within stages 5 and 6 of the Big6 Skills model (Eisenberg & Berkowitz, 2014). The students are given a choice of how they will present their critique and what form of media they will use. This change will adjust the level of inquiry of the task from coupled (guided and open inquiry) to open inquiry, providing a student-centred learning experience.
Click here to download the PDF of Figure 1. Original Rubric or Figure 2 Revised Rubric.
Below is the suggested questioning framework (Table 3) featuring Essential questions based on characteristics outlined by Wiggins (2007) and Murdoch (2012), Generative questions through the KWHLAQ framework (Tolisano, 2015), and Process questions based on the Information Skills Process framework (NSW Department of Education and Training, 2010). This could be used as a guide for teachers to support students through the open inquiry learning process.
The Expressive window (Lupton, 2016) is quite complex and is used well within the original unit outline. However, incorporating the Transformative window (Lupton, 2016) would further enhance the scope through more complex dimensions. Figure 3 illustrates how the Transformative window could be incorporated more within this task.
Within the slideshow below, Figures 4 (Generic window, Lupton 2016), 5 (Situated window, Lupton 2016), and 6 (Expressive window) offer recommendations and a questioning frameworks to utlised the GeSTE windows to achieve a deeper level of inquiry.

Did you know your new Electrolux canister vacuum not only has a bag, but also a motor filter and a HEPA filter? If you are like many other customers, you may not realize the differences between the motor filter and the HEPA filter and how or when to replace them. No need to worry, however, because after today you'll be a pro at keeping your vacuum running smoothly.
The Electrolux HEPA filter eliminates harmful particles down to .03 microns from your home (for comparison, the average human hair's diameter is 100 microns). If you or anyone in your family suffers from allergies, this filter aids in the reduction of nasal irritation. Electrolux HEPA filters come in three variations: disposable (green), washable (blue), and anti-odor (grey).
To replace your Electrolux HEPA filter, begin by looking towards the back of the vacuum.
Located on the HEPA door are two button latches. Hold these down and gently let the door open.
Remove the current HEPA filter and replace it with a new one. Lift the door back into the closed position; it will click to lock.
Next, you can replace the bag and the motor filter simultaneously. The motor filter removes harmful particles from entering the motor helping keep it cool. If you do not change your motor filter or run the vacuum without one, it guarantees the motor burning out much faster.
First, remove the bag holder and bag from the interior of the canister (we'll get to those in just a moment).
You'll see a door latch housing the motor filter.
Open this door and remove the old motor filter and insert a new one.
Close the door and check that off your list.
Lastly, you address the bag. All new style Electrolux canister vacuums use the Style S Electrolux vacuum bags. Electrolux Style S vacuum bags come in several models: EL200 (paper), EL201 (synthetic long performance), EL202 (anti-allergy), EL203 (anti-odor, good for pet owners), EL211 (ultra long performance synthetic). For this demonstration, we'll look at the EL201 synthetic long life Style S bag.
We've already removed the bag holder, so next remove the old bag by grabbing the cardboard tab and pulling it out.
Next, grab the new Style S bag to go into the vacuum.
On the cardboard tab, you will see two latch holes. These correspond directly with two latches on the bag holder. Slide the bag tab through the threading of the bag holder and make sure the latches go into the two openings on the tab.
Place the bag holder with the new bag back into the housing in the canister. Close the lid and you can resume cleaning your home knowing your motor and air are better for the replacements.
You should change the motor filter approximately every 3-6 months, depending on how often you vacuum and how heavy the jobs are. Your vacuum comes with a bag full light, so you just need to pay attention to that as to when to replace the Style S bag. The HEPA filter lasts an estimated 8-12 months, again depending on your cleaning frequency and how intensely your allergies act up. Changing out the filters ensures the longevity of your Electrolux canister vacuum and the health of your home.
If you have any questions, call in to speak with one of our representatives at (866)-972-8227.

Ever wondered what those small images on the side of your vacuum box meant? We've all noticed them in passing, those oval-shaped bubbles with words we don't care to investigate. Luckily for you, we're here to tell you exactly what the seal on your vacuum box means. Since 1909, Good Housekeeping magazine has been evaluating and rating apppliances and items in order to guarantee the consumer is receiving the best product possible.
In terms of vacuums, Good Housekeeping looks for durability and a high cleaning performance when stamping their seal of approval. One brand that is consistently approved with the Good Housekeeping Seal is Miele. Not only does Miele vacuums manufacture a durable product, but it is also top of the line in terms of filtration and suction control.
But what does this seal do? Well, Good Housekeeping believes in each of its approved products so much, that it guarantees a two-year limited warranty when purchased from an authorized dealer, such as ourselves. If a part is defective, Good Housekeeping will replace or repair the part or refund the purchase price.
Here is a list of Miele Vacuums to which the Good Housekeeping seal applies:
Another seal you might find on your vacuum box is one by J.D. Power & Associates. Known for their consumer ratings and awards, J.D. Power & Associates rates everything from cars to healthcare plans. The company was founded in 1968 as a way to control product quality and review buyer behavior. According to consumer customer satisfaction surveys, Miele has rated the highest in customer satisfaction in uprights for two years in a row and canisters for one year.
With both seals, you can be guaranteed that you're purchasing a vacuum of impeccable quality and a terrific track record across business and consumer reports. With J.D. & Associates' high-standing reputation and Good Housekeeping's two-year limited warranty, there'll be no need to worry about how your vacuum will fair after a few months of cleaning.
Other certifications and seals of approval include HEPA Filtration (High Efficiency Particulate Air Filtration), a certification applied to vacuum cleaner filters that are among the highest-rated in the industry, the CRI (Carpet and Rug Institute) Green Label Seal of Approval, a certification awarded to vacuum cleaners tested by the Carpet and Rug Institute and measuring highly in the categories of Soil Removal, Dust Containment, and Carpet Appearance Retention.
***For more information on any of these seals and certifications, please call our customer service department at 1-866-972-8227.

In order to move towards a more sustainable future, Green Seal and other related companies are working in an eco-friendly manner to expedite the process. The floor cleaning industry is working together to provide green cleaning alternatives to abide by standards set by the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) and Leaders in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). Vacuum cleaners are no exception. In fact, vacuum cleaners are one of the major frontiers being explored regarding the expansion of environmentally friendly products.
The CRI categorizes vacuum cleaners into three levels based on certain factors that pertain to reducing emissions while cleaning with high efficiency. These three levels of classifications are gold, silver and bronze, each of which has their own requirements that a vacuum cleaner must meet to be considered. A bronze level vacuum must clean up 40 to 49 percent of soil and its emissions must hold particles less than or equal to 100 micrograms. A silver level vacuum must meet the same emission requirements but must also remove 50-54% of soil. For a vacuum cleaner to be classified in the gold level it must get rid of greater than 54 percent of soil and contain particles less than or equal to 35 micrograms within its emissions. All of these statistics are calculated in a testing environment sanctioned by the CRI. Among these tests, vacuums must also not alter the texture of a carpet or rug based on a simulation of a single year of cleaning.
There are obvious benefits found from using a CRI approved vacuum cleaner, validating why Green Seal recommends them so highly. They encourage individuals to clean with machines containing only high-efficiency filters which have a vacuum bag, in order to help guarantee the best possible air quality for the home or business in question. Green Seal advises that vacuum cleaner bags should be emptied when they are half full, as this helps to further prevent the escaping of harmful particles into the air. Filtration is one of the primary factors to concern oneself with when in the market for a new sweeper, especially if allergies and asthma are an issue. However, as outlined by LEED requirements, a green vacuum cleaner must operate at less the 70 decibels in order to keep noise pollution to a minimum. Green Seal urges consumers to stray from cleaning products like dusters and move more towards self-contained vacuums in order to trap particles as opposed to circulating them.Green vacuums are some of the best options to consider regarding floor care products of any kind. They guarantee increased suction power with lowered emissions which means cleaner floors and better air quality. Whether you're a homeowner or a business owner this style of vacuum cleaner is sure to meet your specific needs and then some. College students are also encouraged to make use of these eco-friendly machines as most colleges attempt to go green. The low sound output from these sweepers make them the ideal sweepers for college dorm rooms and apartments, as they are less likely to disturb others. The advancement in filtration and technology in general has been a beneficial process for the vacuum cleaner and there are certainly more improvements to come in the near future.

Preparing to use your air conditioner and filter for the first time this year requires periodic maintenance. Keep the AC in top condition and know that your AC can provide an environment for mold and mildew growth if no maintenance is performed. Outside dirt and debris can accumulate inside the unit, which will affect the performance of your AC. For maintenance tips and instructions refer to your owner's manual. Follow guidelines that the manufactures provides. Preventive measures can cut down on allergies, energy, repair costs, and help keep your AC running smoothly.
Some basic routine cleaning tips:
• Turn off the electricity to the air conditioner
• Remove AC from window
• Have a stand or table to check the air conditioner, preferably in garage or outside area
• Use a vacuum crevice tool and brush to clean the dirt and dust from internal components
• Use compressed air to thoroughly clean
• Replace or clean filters, some filters are washable with soap and water, others are disposable
Running an HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) Air Purifier in your home in front of your AC will minimize airborne mold and allergens, and ensure that the air you breathe is healthy. The purpose of the HEPA air Purifier is to remove irritants such as mold, dust and bacteria that trigger allergies and eliminate volatile organic compounds that affect general health. Although there is HEPA air conditioner for windows this may be the best alternative.

HEPA Filters
Pollen, dust mites, mold, and spores invade many homes making life difficult for people with allergies. While no home can be completely allergen free, cleaning on a regular basis can reduce the number of allergens in your home.
Listed below are some cleaning tips to help alleviate your allergy symptoms and reduce allergens in your home:
Allergens and irritants rest on surfaces like rugs, furniture, and counter tops. The best types of cleaning products for you to use are those that are non-toxic. Green cleaning products can do the job to reduce allergens. Remember to read the labels. Housekeeping itself can stir up the dust that causes allergic symptoms, so dust, sweep or vacuum outside entry areas to avoid tracking pollen and debris inside.
Allergist recommends using a Hepa Filter Vacuum cleaner that has a High Efficiency Filter because HEPA reduces airborne allergens by trapping dust mites and other small particles and won't release them back into the air while you clean. Keep the beater bar brush free of hair and other material. Have the vacuum serviced often to keep it running smoothly.
Install dehumidifiers in basements where moisture tends to collect. A dehumidifier pulls the humidity out of the air, reducing dust mites, mold and mildew. For air filtration; choose an air filter that contains small particles or a Hepa filter. The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) recommends air filtration to control sources of allergy causing pollution.
Shut windows and run air conditioner when pollen count is high.
Just focus on the basics and don't get overwhelmed. Fewer symptoms help vastly to improve your quality of life.

The prompt I am using today is one of the wild card options, as the choice for today was to create a diabetes petition. I thought the wild card prompt sounded much more interesting, especially since I have enlisted John to help. I thought that would be the most fitting and fair, since he is the one being poked and prodded. Plus, he is an amazing jr. engineer, following in his daddy's footsteps. 🙂
"Back by popular demand, let's revisit this prompt from last year! Tell us what your fantasy diabetes device would be? Think of your dream blood glucose checker, delivery system for insulin or other meds, magic carb counter, etc etc etc. The sky is the limit – what would you love to see?"
Take it away John:
The Testeroni 5000
The Testeroni 5000 is a glove that has a tester on one of the fingers. You can't even feel the test when it tests you!
You have a little tiny thing that beeps whenever you are low and whenever you are high. It gives you insulin when you are high and it tells you to eat something whenever you are low. You never have to take it off. It isn't hot whenever you wear it, it is very comfortable.
Dictated by John, age 9, diagnosed 2/05 at 18 months.
John testing prototypes of The Testeroni 5000
Psalm 121:8 (ESV)
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.

The Northern New England Campus Compact is working with college campuses in the New England area to explore environmental projects. The two-year program is funded by the United States Environment Protection Agency which is providing $150,000 in grants for training faculty and obtaining the necessary resources needed to initiate projects under the Northern New Campus Compact program.
The University of New Hampshire at Manchester was among eighteen recipients, five of which are New Hampshire colleges. UNH Manchester will participate through an expansive project devised by faculty which entails working with the Manchester Water Department. Students will explore environmental sustainability and the management of natural resources via Manchester's water quality management system.
UNH Manchester Computing Technology faculty Mihaela Sabin and Michael Jonas were among four faculty members across multiple departments in authoring the grant. UNH Manchester's undergraduate Computer Information System program will be one of several which will take part in the project. CIS students will be working on the development of software systems in the form of mobile apps and data management systems which will work to collect and process large amounts of data. The project will be integrated with CIS course content, and will serve as a course project for students to explore the real world application of skills learned in the classroom.

A busy week for Amec.
Fresh from news that Wood Group, the Aberdeen-based oilfield services company, has launched a £2.2bn bid to buy it, Amec Foster Wheeler says it has snagged a contract worth up to $950m with the US Air Force, to "sustain and improve Air Force and other Department of Defense installations".
Some of the work includes unexploded bombs and radiological waste, but the contract also also means the company will compete for a range of construction and renovation orders, some "in environments that can be remote and challenging around the world".
Ann Massey, president of the company's environment and infrastructure business, said:
We are honoured to receive this contract which is a testament to our proud history of successfully delivering on Air Force Civil Engineer Centre projects for more than 25 years.

What happens to your recycling
Did you know that we recycle over 30 different materials in Brighton & Hove? Nearly 95% of them are sent to and processed in the UK, with the majority of this happening in Sussex.
Around 90% of what we collect gets recycled. The rest can't be recycled and gets removed at the Hollingdean Materials Recovery facility (MRF).
The total recycling rate for the MRF – which also takes materials from elsewhere – is currently around 85%.

A great many problems with Bridge to Terabithia could have been solved by casting, and unfortunately director Gabor Csupo gets that wrong from the start. The protagonist, Jesse Aarons, a lonely fifth grader in a small town, is played with sullen inattention by Josh Hutcherson. His better half is Leslie Burke, the new girl in town, performed by AnnaSophia Robb with a bright and shallow perkiness that suggests a callow Keira Knightley 10 years ago. With not much going in the way of interpersonal chemistry between the two leads, it's difficult for the film's rather (on the surface) uneventful and deeply interior story to gain much traction.
Continue reading: Bridge To Terabithia Review
Set in the 1970's, Francis (Emile Hirsch) and Tim (Kieran Culkin) are two irreverent, trouble-making friends who attend the same Catholic high school. Their archenemy is Sister Assumpta (Jodie Foster), an immensely strict nun, who rules the school with an iron fist. Seeking a more even playing field, Tim and the artistically gifted Francis, with the help of a few friends, create a comic book where their superhero alter egos do battle with the evil forces of Sister Assumpta.

Career Education. What Research Says to the Teacher.
Wilson, John H.
Focusing on implications for teachers, this document reviews significant research and the current status of career education. The information is divided into eight sections. An introductory section discusses the criticisms of the education system which formed the basis for the career education movement. The next five sections contain brief summaries of the following concerns: definitions of career education; goals and expectations of career education; major criticisms of the movement; problems in evaluating career education; and major research findings. (The research findings in this report emphasize an evaluation of the effectiveness of the career education curriculum in bringing about achievement within the basic academic skills domain.) In the last two sections the author summarizes his review by offering conclusions and implications for the future development of career education. (BM)

For technology enthusiasts, there is no better time than the start of a year. They usually have the newer cutting edge toys in the hands by then, and can get an idea of what the future holds as companies rush out their new announcements at CES.
NVIDIA became one of the first technology giants to hold a press conference at the 2014 edition of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and has just made the Tegra K1 mobile processor official. This revolutionary 192-core chip makes use of the company's newest Kepler architecture.
Aye, the one that powers one of the fastest GPUS on the market right now, the GeForce GTX 780 Ti.
In other words, you can expect all the features that are available on the latest gaming PCs, from full support for DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.4 to tessellation and everything in between.
The company has confirmed that it will be launching two versions of the Tegra K1.
One offers the 32-bit quad-core, 4-plus-1 ARM Cortex A15 CPU, and the other makes use of a custom designed 64-bit dual Super Core CPU, codenamed Denver.
It remains to be seen in which capacity these new fiery chips make their way to Windows powered devices. Equally important is the question whether Microsoft will still use either of them for its third-generation Surface tablets that are expected by the end of the year or opt for a Qualcomm solution.
But with hardware revolutions like these, the Windows RT platform just may earn itself a renaissance.

Andesitic rocks are mainly composed of dark and light colored materials. Most materials in andesitic rocks are amphibole and plagioclase feldspar. Andesitic rocks are commonly related to volcanic eruptions on the margins of continents.

"Nihon e yōkoso." A small man bordered by two large hulking men in armor greeted them at the bottom of the ramp. He bowed slightly but kept his eyes up on the passengers disembarking.
"Eigo." Heart said and flashed a few coins towards the man.
He bowed again and then gestured back towards the hanger. "Eigo!" He shouted back.
The greeter turned back towards the daughter, smiled nervously, and held out his hand. Several choice coins fell into his palm. He smiled again, more naturally this time and bowed deeper.
"Otsukaresama." Heart returned the bow, but not as deep.
"What is with the warriors?" Feldsharp asked in a hushed voice.
"Show of force to the new arrivals." Heart gave the guards a backwards glance. "Impressive show of force I might add."
They continued walking towards the hanger.
"I don't think I could take them if I had to." Feldsharp admitted.
Heart snickered. "You could take those two easy enough. They have done well in intimidating you. But neither has a correct stance and one wore his sword upside down so when he draws it he will have to take extra time to pivot it in his hand. I noticed a loose buckle on the shoulder plate of one of them and their helmets are made for looks more than blocking attacks."
"But you just said they were impressive." Feldsharp said.
"I did, didn't I?" Heart smiled and narrowed her eyes. "I did not quite mean it the same way you interpreted it. It has been a long time."
"A long time since what?" Feldsharp asked.
Heart's eyes stayed narrow but the smile vanished. "How old are you again?"
"Fifteen." He answered.
Heart stopped. "Fifteen? When did that happen?"
"Somewhere back in Don Californio." He replied.
"Well you are too young to understand." She resumed their way up the path.
A small man stood at the end of the path. He wore a black suit and a fedora hat. As they approached he removed his dark glasses and stepped towards them with a hand outstretched. "Greetings and welcome to Japan fair Daughter!"
Heart took his hand and he bowed his head as they shook. Heart bowed her head slightly as well and Feldsharp hesitantly bowed his head slightly too.
"My name is Yakusha." He stated. "And does your companion have a name?"
"I am Feldsharp Halftall."
The short man looked at the boy towering above him. His eyes then drifted down to the boy's hands.
"Oh." The man said simply and took half a step back. He paused in his conversation before finally turning his attention back to the Daughter.
"Very descriptive name considering your occupation, and might I say you speak very good English." She spoke first.
The man flushed red and bowed a couple of times. "Thank you. It is nothing really. And that name is easier on the foreign tongue than my honor name. Might I ask you though fair Daughter, are you lost?"
She smirked. "No, we are definitely here on purpose. We are on a knowledge seeking quest for my companion here."
"Ah, apologies. Some that find our shores are lost so I always ask."
The man looked Feldsharp up and down again and again his gaze stopped on the oversized hands.
"Is he…" The man paused then turned back towards the Daughter. "Is he Senshi?"
"A well trained one at that."
"Kuso!" Yakusha took another step back.
"I would advise using English around him. He does not understand Japanese."
"I understood that one." Feldsharp grinned.
"What is his quest?" The translator asked.
"You need to talk to him." Heart gestured to the half giant.
Yakusha swallowed hard. He looked at the boy then back to the woman. "You, you're tall, but pleasing to look at. Him, he is… he is kyojin kowai."
"You get used to him." She said. "He is only fourteen – err fifteen years old."
Another step back. "Kuso!"
Feldsharp chuckled. "I looked up that word when the master was not looking. Just never heard it used so much!"
"So ask him." Heart nudged the small man forward.
"Um…" He stammered a little and looked down at his feet. While his head was down he threw in a couple of bows. "What is your quest, Kyojin?"
"I am seeking a monk by the name of Hitomi."
Yakusha frowned. "Which one? There are probably ten monks by the name Hitomi just here in Taka Daku."
Feldsharp exhaled heavily. "That is all Brother Gustav said. Just a monk named Hitomi."
"Well, then that is going to be a long and difficult quest." The translator stated.
Feldsharp looked down at his feet and exhaled. Suddenly he looked up at the small man which resulted in the man making a small leap backwards and stumbling backwards over the raised edge of the path.
"You okay?" Feldsharp move in on the man quickly and to the translator's horror picked him up and set him back on his feet.
When the boy stepped back the man stood there, wide eyed and shaking.
"I was just going to ask," Feldsharp took a step back to give the man some room, "does the name Paul mean anything? We are trying to find Hitomi because he knows where Paul is."
The man shook his head slightly and continued to shake.
"How about Nephilim. Does that mean anything to you?" Feldsharp asked.
He shook his head again.
"I think you broke him." Heart offered.

Nova Scoita Court of Appeal Orders Metadata Production
The Nova Scotia Court of Appeal has recently ordered an injured party to provide the metadata from the hard drive on his personal computer to the defendant. In Laushway v Messervey, the plaintiff was injured in a motor vehicle accident, which he claimed reduced the time he was able to use a computer for his self-employed business. The defendant brought a motion to have the plaintiff produce the metadata from his hard drive for analysis to determine the plaintiff's usage pattern. The plaintiff, citing concerns, appealed the production order granted by the motions judge.
The Court of Appeal confirmed the decision of the motions judge. It found the defendant had established the necessary three part test:
- the metadata is electronic information, and therefore subject to a production order under Nova Scotia's Civil Procedure Rules;
- the metadata is relevant to verify the plaintiff's claim; and
- the plaintiff did not rebut the presumption that the disclosure of the metadata is necessary for justice in the proceeding.
In the result, a plaintiff may be required to produce their hard drive to allow specialists to analyse their metadata if it is relevant to their claim (for example, loss of income related to computer use). Forensic assessment specialists are able to analyse metadata with minimal intrusion to the privacy of the plaintiff.

You Are Burning Me, Part 3
Life happens, of course, just usually not in such a swift and scalding manner. Also, I do my best not to scream like a little girl if I can help it.
To his credit, the barista was equally swift in his aid, and soon handy antiseptic burn pads were placed on the affected areas. I believe I shall soon recover without any lasting effects, and with any luck the next batch of Holy Embers will be both more intentional and true to form.

I. Hardly one of us, I think, really believed in the auriferous probabilities of Eureka Gulch. Following a little stream, we had one day drifted into it, very much as we imagined the river gold might have done in remoter ages, with the difference that WE remained there, while the river gold to all appearances had not. At first it was tacitly agreed to ignore this fact, and we made the most of the charming locality, with its rare watercourse that lost itself in tangled depths of manzanita and alder, its laurel-choked pass, its flower-strewn hillside, and its summit crested with rocking pines.
"You see," said the optimistic Rowley, water's the main thing after all. If we happen to strike river gold, thar's the stream for washing it; if we happen to drop into quartz――and that thar rock looks mighty likely――thar ain't a more natural-born site for a mill than that right bank, with water enough to run fifty stamps. That hillside is an original dump for your tailings, and a ready found inclined road for your trucks, fresh from the hands of Providence; and that road we're kalkilatin' to build to the turnpike will run just easy along that ridge."
Later, when we were forced to accept the fact that finding gold was really the primary object of a gold-mining company, we still remained there, excusing our youthful laziness and incertitude by brilliant and effective sarcasms upon the unremunerative attractions of the gulch. Nevertheless, when Captain Jim, returning one day from the nearest settlement and post-office, twenty miles away, burst upon us with "Well, the hull thing'll be settled now, boys; Lacy Bassett is coming down yer to look round," we felt considerably relieved.
And yet, perhaps, we had as little reason for it as we had for remaining there. There was no warrant for any belief in the special divining power of the unknown Lacy Bassett, except Captain Jim's extravagant faith in his general superiority, and even that had always been a source of amused skepticism to the camp. We were already impatiently familiar with the opinions of this unseen oracle; he was always impending in Captain Jim's speech as a fragrant memory or an unquestioned authority. When Captain Jim began, "Ez Lacy was one day tellin' me," or, "Ez Lacy Bassett allows," or more formally, when strangers were present, "Ez a partickler friend o' mine, Lacy Bassett――maybe ez you know him―― sez," the youthful and lighter members of the Eureka Mining Company glanced at each other in furtive enjoyment. Nevertheless no one looked more eagerly forward to the arrival of this apocryphal sage than these indolent skeptics. It was at least an excitement; they were equally ready to accept his condemnation of the locality or his justification of their original selection.
He came. He was received by the Eureka Mining Company lying on their backs on the grassy site of the prospective quartz mill, not far from the equally hypothetical "slide" to the gulch. He came by the future stage road――at present a thickset jungle of scrub-oaks and ferns. He was accompanied by Captain Jim, who had gone to meet him on the trail, and for a few moments all critical inspection of himself was withheld by the extraordinary effect he seemed to have upon the faculties of his introducer.
Anything like the absolute prepossession of Captain Jim by this stranger we had never imagined. He approached us running a little ahead of his guest, and now and then returning assuringly to his side with the expression of a devoted Newfoundland dog, which in fluffiness he generally resembled. And now, even after the introduction was over, when he made a point of standing aside in an affectation of carelessness, with his hands in his pockets, the simulation was so apparent, and his consciousness and absorption in his friend so obvious, that it was a relief to us to recall him into the conversation.
As to our own first impressions of the stranger, they were probably correct. We all disliked him; we thought him conceited, self- opinionated, selfish, and untrustworthy. But later, reflecting that this was possibly the result of Captain Jim's over-praise, and finding none of these qualities as yet offensively opposed to our own selfishness and conceit, we were induced, like many others, to forget our first impressions. We could easily correct him if he attempted to impose upon US, as he evidently had upon Captain Jim. Believing, after the fashion of most humanity, that there was something about US particularly awe-inspiring and edifying to vice or weakness of any kind, we good-humoredly yielded to the cheap fascination of this showy, self-saturated, over-dressed, and underbred stranger. Even the epithet of "blower" as applied to him by Rowley had its mitigations; in that Trajan community a bully was not necessarily a coward, nor florid demonstration always a weakness.
His condemnation of the gulch was sweeping, original, and striking. He laughed to scorn our half-hearted theory of a gold deposit in the bed and bars of our favorite stream. We were not to look for auriferous alluvium in the bed of any present existing stream, but in the "cement" or dried-up bed of the original prehistoric rivers that formerly ran parallel with the present bed, and which――he demonstrated with the stem of Pickney's pipe in the red dust――could be found by sinking shafts at right angles with the stream. The theory was to us, at that time, novel and attractive. It was true that the scientific explanation, although full and gratuitous, sounded vague and incoherent. It was true that the geological terms were not always correct, and their pronunciation defective, but we accepted such extraordinary discoveries as "ignus fatuus rock," "splendiferous drift," "mica twist" (recalling a popular species of tobacco), "iron pirates," and "discomposed quartz" as part of what he not inaptly called a "tautological formation," and were happy. Nor was our contentment marred by the fact that the well-known scientific authority with whom the stranger had been intimate,――to the point of "sleeping together" during a survey,―― and whom he described as a bent old man with spectacles, must have aged considerably since one of our party saw him three years before as a keen young fellow of twenty-five. Inaccuracies like those were only the carelessness of genius. "That's my opinion, gentlemen," he concluded, negligently rising, and with pointed preoccupation whipping the dust of Eureka Gulch from his clothes with his handkerchief, "but of course it ain't nothin' to me."
Captain Jim, who had followed every word with deep and trustful absorption, here repeated, "It ain't nothing to him, boys," with a confidential implication of the gratuitous blessing we had received, and then added, with loyal encouragement to him, "It ain't nothing to you, Lacy, in course," and laid his hand on his shoulder with infinite tenderness.
We, however, endeavored to make it something to Mr. Lacy Bassett. He was spontaneously offered a share in the company and a part of Captain Jim's tent. He accepted both after a few deprecating and muttered asides to Captain Jim, which the latter afterwards explained to us was the giving up of several other important enterprises for our sake. When he finally strolled away with Rowley to look over the gulch, Captain Jim reluctantly tore himself away from him only for the pleasure of reiterating his praise to us as if in strictest confidence and as an entirely novel proceeding.
"You see, boys, I didn't like to say it afore HIM, we bein' old friends; but, between us, that young feller ez worth thousands to the camp. Mebbee," he continued with grave naivete, "I ain't said much about him afore, mebbee, bein' old friends and accustomed to him――you know how it is, boys,――I haven't appreciated him as much ez I ought, and ez you do. In fact, I don't ezakly remember how I kem to ask him down yer. It came to me suddent, one day only a week ago Friday night, thar under that buckeye; I was thinkin' o' one of his sayins, and sez I――thar's Lacy, if he was here he'd set the hull thing right. It was the ghost of a chance my findin' him free, but I did. And there HE is, and yer WE are settled! Ye noticed how he just knocked the bottom outer our plans to work. Ye noticed that quick sort o' sneerin' smile o' his, didn't ye――that's Lacy! I've seen him knock over a heap o' things without sayin' anythin'――with jist that smile."
It occurred to us that we might have some difficulty in utilizing this smile in our present affairs, and that we should have probably preferred something more assuring, but Captain Jim's faith was contagious.
"What is he, anyway?" asked Joe Walker lazily.
"Eh!" echoed Captain Jim in astonishment. "What is Lacy Bassett?"
"Yes, what is he?" repeated Walker.
"Wot IS――he?" "Yes."
"I've knowed him now goin' as four year," said Captain Jim with slow reflective contentment. "Let's see. It was in the fall o' ' I first met him, and he's allus been the same ez you see him now."
"But what is his business or profession? What does he do?"
Captain Jim looked reproachfully at his questioner.
"Do?" he repeated, turning to the rest of us as if disdaining a direct reply. "Do?――why, wot he's doin' now. He's allus the same, allus Lacy Bassett."
Howbeit, we went to work the next day under the superintendence of the stranger with youthful and enthusiastic energy, and began the sinking of a shaft at once. To do Captain Jim's friend justice, for the first few weeks he did not shirk a fair share of the actual labor, replacing his objectionable and unsuitable finery with a suit of serviceable working clothes got together by general contribution of the camp, and assuring us of a fact we afterwards had cause to remember, that "he brought nothing but himself into Eureka Gulch." It may be added that he certainly had not brought money there, as Captain Jim advanced the small amounts necessary for his purchases in the distant settlement, and for the still smaller sums he lost at cards, which he played with characteristic self-sufficiency.
Meantime the work in the shaft progressed slowly but regularly. Even when the novelty had worn off and the excitement of anticipation grew fainter, I am afraid that we clung to this new form of occupation as an apology for remaining there; for the fascinations of our vagabond and unconventional life were more potent than we dreamed of. We were slowly fettered by our very freedom; there was a strange spell in this very boundlessness of our license that kept us from even the desire of change; in the wild and lawless arms of nature herself we found an embrace as clinging, as hopeless and restraining, as the civilization from which we had fled. We were quite content after a few hours' work in the shaft to lie on our backs on the hillside staring at the unwinking sky, or to wander with a gun through the virgin forest in search of game scarcely less vagabond than ourselves. We indulged in the most extravagant and dreamy speculations of the fortune we should eventually discover in the shaft, and believed that we were practical. We broke our "saleratus bread" with appetites unimpaired by restlessness or anxiety; we went to sleep under the grave and sedate stars with a serene consciousness of having fairly earned our rest; we awoke the next morning with unabated trustfulness, and a sweet obliviousness of even the hypothetical fortunes we had perhaps won or lost at cards overnight. We paid no heed to the fact that our little capital was slowly sinking with the shaft, and that the rainy season――wherein not only "no man could work," but even such play as ours was impossible――was momentarily impending.
In the midst of this, one day Lacy Bassett suddenly emerged from the shaft before his "shift" of labor was over with every sign of disgust and rage in his face and inarticulate with apparent passion. In vain we gathered round him in concern; in vain Captain Jim regarded him with almost feminine sympathy, as he flung away his pick and dashed his hat to the ground.
"What's up, Lacy, old pard? What's gone o' you?" said Captain Jim tenderly.
"Look!" gasped Lacy at last, when every eye was on him, holding up a small fragment of rock before us and the next moment grinding it under his heel in rage. "Look! To think that I've been fooled agin by this blanked fossiliferous trap――blank it! To think that after me and Professor Parker was once caught jist in this way up on the Stanislaus at the bottom of a hundred-foot shaft by this rotten trap――that yer I am――bluffed agin!"
There was a dead silence; we looked at each other blankly.
"But, Bassett," said Walker, picking up a part of the fragment, "we've been finding this kind of stuff for the last two weeks."
"But how?" returned Lacy, turning upon him almost fiercely. "Did ye find it superposed on quartz, or did you find it NOT superposed on quartz? Did you find it in volcanic drift, or did ye find it in old red-sandstone or coarse illuvion? Tell me that, and then ye kin talk. But this yer blank fossiliferous trap, instead o' being superposed on top, is superposed on the bottom. And that means"-
"What?" we all asked eagerly. "Why――blank it all――that this yer convulsion of nature, this prehistoric volcanic earthquake, instead of acting laterally and chuckin' the stream to one side, has been revolutionary and turned the old river-bed bottom-side up, and yer d――d cement hez got half the globe atop of it! Ye might strike it from China, but nowhere else."
We continued to look at one another, the older members with darkening faces, the younger with a strong inclination to laugh. Captain Jim, who had been concerned only in his friend's emotion, and who was hanging with undisguised satisfaction on these final convincing proofs of his superior geological knowledge, murmured approvingly and confidingly, "He's right, boys! Thar ain't another man livin' ez could give you the law and gospil like that! Ye can tie to what he says. That's Lacy all over."
Two weeks passed. We had gathered, damp and disconsolate, in the only available shelter of the camp. For the long summer had ended unexpectedly to us; we had one day found ourselves caught like the improvident insect of the child's fable with gauzy and unseasonable wings wet and bedraggled in the first rains, homeless and hopeless. The scientific Lacy, who lately spent most of his time as a bar- room oracle in the settlement, was away, and from our dripping canvas we could see Captain Jim returning from a visit to him, slowly plodding along the trail towards us.
"It's no use, boys," said Rowley, summarizing the result of our conference, "we must speak out to him, and if nobody else cares to do it I will. I don't know why we should be more mealy-mouthed than they are at the settlement. They don't hesitate to call Bassett a dead-beat, whatever Captain Jim says to the contrary."
The unfortunate Captain Jim had halted irresolutely before the gloomy faces in the shelter. Whether he felt instinctively some forewarning of what was coming I cannot say. There was a certain dog-like consciousness in his eye and a half-backward glance over his shoulder as if he were not quite certain that Lacy was not following. The rain had somewhat subdued his characteristic fluffiness, and he cowered with a kind of sleek storm-beaten despondency over the smoking fire of green wood before our tent.
Nevertheless, Rowley opened upon him with a directness and decision that astonished us. He pointed out briefly that Lacy Bassett had been known to us only through Captain Jim's introduction. That he had been originally invited there on Captain Jim's own account, and that his later connection with the company had been wholly the result of Captain Jim's statements. That, far from being any aid or assistance to them, Bassett had beguiled them by apocryphal knowledge and sham scientific theories into an expensive and gigantic piece of folly. That, in addition to this, they had just discovered that he had also been using the credit of the company for his own individual expenses at the settlement while they were working on his d――d fool shaft――all of which had brought them to the verge of bankruptcy. That, as a result, they were forced now to demand his resignation――not only on their general account, but for Captain Jim's sake――believing firmly, as they did, that he had been as grossly deceived in his friendship for Lacy Bassett as THEY were in their business relations with him.
Instead of being mollified by this, Captain Jim, to our greater astonishment, suddenly turned upon the speaker, bristling with his old canine suggestion.
"There! I said so! Go on! I'd have sworn to it afore you opened your lips. I knowed it the day you sneaked around and wanted to know wot his business was! I said to myself, Cap, look out for that sneakin' hound Rowley, he's no friend o' Lacy's. And the day Lacy so far demeaned himself as to give ye that splendid explanation o' things, I watched ye; ye didn't think it, but I watched ye. Ye can't fool me! I saw ye lookin' at Walker there, and I said to myself, Wot's the use, Lacy, wot's the use o' your slingin' them words to such as THEM? Wot do THEY know? It's just their pure jealousy and ignorance. Ef you'd come down yer, and lazed around with us and fallen into our common ways, you'd ha' been ez good a man ez the next. But no, it ain't your style, Lacy, you're accustomed to high-toned men like Professor Parker, and you can't help showing it. No wonder you took to avoidin' us; no wonder I've had to foller you over the Burnt Wood Crossin' time and again, to get to see ye. I see it all now: ye can't stand the kempany I brought ye to! Ye had to wipe the slum gullion of Eureka Gulch off your hands, Lacy"―― He stopped, gasped for breath, and then lifted his voice more savagely, "And now, what's this? Wot's this hogwash? this yer lyin' slander about his gettin' things on the kempany's credit? Eh, speak up, some of ye!"
We were so utterly shocked and stupefied at the degradation of this sudden and unexpected outburst from a man usually so honorable, gentle, self-sacrificing, and forgiving, that we forgot the cause of it and could only stare at each other. What was this cheap stranger, with his shallow swindling tricks, to the ignoble change he had worked upon the man before us. Rowley and Walker, both fearless fighters and quick to resent an insult, only averted their saddened faces and turned aside without a word.
"Ye dussen't say it! Well, hark to me then," he continued with white and feverish lips. "I put him up to helpin' himself. I told him to use the kempany's name for credit. Ye kin put that down to ME. And when ye talk of HIS resigning, I want ye to understand that I resign outer this rotten kempany and TAKE HIM WITH ME! Ef all the gold yer lookin' for was piled up in that shaft from its bottom in hell to its top in the gulch, it ain't enough to keep me here away from him! Ye kin take all my share――all MY rights yer above ground and below it――all I carry,"――he threw his buckskin purse and revolver on the ground,――"and pay yourselves what you reckon you've lost through HIM. But you and me is quits from today."
He strode away before a restraining voice or hand could reach him. His dripping figure seemed to melt into the rain beneath the thickening shadows of the pines, and the next moment he was gone. From that day forward Eureka Gulch knew him no more. And the camp itself somehow melted away during the rainy season, even as he had done.

What's the difference between the subject pronouns "On" and "Nous?" When would you use "On" instead of "Nous" and vice versa?
Both subject pronouns "On" and "Nous" mean "We" or "Us" in English. However, we usually use "on" when we are speaking in a general sense or context. For example, it would make more sense to say, "En France, on parle francais," instead of "En France, nous parlons francais." This is because it is a fact that in France, the general population speaks French. If you used "Nous" it technically wouldn't be wrong, but "On" is more convenient in the context.
Which statement is correct and why? "Jon and Rosie decided to go to the gym, because they hadn't worked out in a long time." "Jon and Rosie decided to go to the gym because they hadn't worked out in a long time."
The second statement would be the correct one. If you look at the first sentence, there is the placement of an unnecessary comma between "gym" and "because." A comma indicates a pause between the ending of an introductory word, phrase, or clause, and the beginning of the main part of the sentence. A comma also splits to independent clauses. Notice how the second half of the first statement is a fragment. Removing the comma would make the sentence whole.
Can you use the IMVT (Intermediate Value Theorem) to prove that the equation x^3 = x + 3 is solvable?
Let f(x)= x^3 -x - 3 and let m = 0, where f is continuous for all x-values (it is continuous because f is a polynomial). Note that f(0) = -3 and f(2) = 3 and m = 0 is in between f(0) and f(2), so choose the interval [0,2]. Thus, by IMVT, there is at least one x-value "c" on the closed interval 0<c<2, so that f(c) = m , i.e, c^3-c-3 = 0 and the equation is solvable.
