when the threat is to be carried out the person making the threat will then have an apparent ability to carry out the threat. The Defendant cracked the whip so close that she felt the wind rush past her face and that it passed no more than two centimetres from her face, showed that the Defendant’s whip was easily within range of the Complainant and therefore intimating creating the reasonable apprehension by the Complainant that the Defendant either had the present ability to assault the…

sodden, and I’m drenched. It’s getting uncomfortable wearing the same cloths every day; we didn’t bring a change of uniform so we have to make do with what we’ve got. To add to the discomfort I have scars all over my arms and legs, some at least a centimetre deep, from walking so deep into the forest my trousers are tattered and soaked. I’m wet to the bone. Walking in this mud is like stepping directly into in quick sand; and other times, particularly after it has rained it is comparable to…

History of Wands Wands have a long and rich history throughout time. From the first wand of the Egyptian priests and rulers using ivory amulets to todays wand made from magical trees and other magical materials, there have been many creations and re-creations to arrive at the semi-sentient object, we call wands. In Canada, the First Nations people had their own spiritual magic. Once the European wizarding community arrived, they brought their history and their wands. In 1722, Decusroggan…

saccharum is a forest-grown tree that can grow up to thirty-five metres high and up to ninety centimetres in diameter (Sugar maple, Natural Resources Canada, 2015). The sugar maple’s stem structure consists of a straight trunk that is often branch-free for two-thirds or more of its height before opening up into a narrow, round-topped crown, while its…

capacity for regeneration and when axons are cut, particularly major axons, the regrowth of the axon concerned is not possible. However, the undamaged axons are fortunately able to sprout new outgrowths which can grow for u to distances of several centimetres and form new synapses which brings about some form of returned…

land through the view of Steven Messenger in order to illustrate the disconnect towards the land which is often reflected in non-indigenous people. For example when Steven describes Highway One “On a piece of paper make two parallel lines about a centimetre apart going straight up the middle” (Crew, 1998, pg. 31) and the mission “It was an awful place. Very depressing. It made me fee sicker than before” (Crew, 1998, pg. 158). Steven even describes the land as a sickening place. Both authors have…

"Orwellian" is a term used to describe a situation, idea, or societal condition that George Orwell identified as being destructive to the welfare of a free and open society. Through the comparative study of George Orwell’s prose fiction Novel “1984” and Fritz Lang’s German expressionist film “Metropolis” it is demonstrated that the reign of Totalitarian governments and technology has the power to over-run and remove civil liberties. These two composers similarly share the ethics for which…

What TMS can tell us about Stroke Recovery According to the World Health Organisation (2004) stroke is the second most common cause of adult mortality and the third most common cause of chronic disabilities in adults. Di Pino, Pellegrin, Assenza and Copone et al (2014) discussed stroke affects to the blood-oxygen supply to the brain disrupted synaptic transmission, observed as the lack of electrical activity in the penumbra after the stroke. More research has focused on how the rehabilitation…

Skin pigmentation mutation: Melanin is a pigment which changes the colour of skin in humans. The more melanin in our skin the darker our skin colour is. Homo sapiens originally had a white-pink skin colour and they were covered in hair. Over time we grew less and less hair on our bodies resulting in less protection from the sun and its harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In the very northern or southern countries, areas further away from the equator, there is less exposure to UV radiation due…

me into the tent first after opening the flap, but he ended up bumping into me anyway because I had frozen at the door. Not only was the ‘old lady’ not an old lady at all, but a 20 looking year old man, but everything was floating. Almost ten centimetres off the ground, there was furniture, mostly black and yellow, hovering on the mats and the black eerie looking carpet. It felt and looked as if I was standing in the middle of space. The man almost blended into the room, black top hat and…
