“‘Sucking chest wound. The bullet’s taken at least two lobes in the right lung’. That’s a woman’s voice. ‘Pupils dilated. He’s going into shock’”
Sweat dripping. Heart pumping. Gunshots ringing. Chains rattling. Onwards towards home.
Throughout the novel-That Eye The Sky, written by Tim Winton, it explores spirituality. The novel uses various first person techniques such as symbolism, imagery and of course characterisation. Morton Flack which is the narrator and the protagonist of the film has a strong connection with spiritualty although he does not fully understand what that is or why he can see and hear things that others can not. It becomes obvious from early in the novel that Ort’s life revolves around his family. The relationship the Flack family has with each other dynamically shifts after Sam ( Ort’s dad) has a terrible car accident.
For a mediator, the ability to identify and understand this unconscious human behavior can come in handy. By understanding and being able to anticipate how someone while react to and with both verbal and nonverbal communication, they can minimize the poor decision-making that many of us fall into when we let our unconscious judgments take control.

My hands start shaking when the gun shots go off in rapid succession, three shots, seconds later, four more. I press the numbers 911 on the screen. A woman on the other end asks, "What is your emergency? " Quickly, I speak, "corner of Madison and Denver… a woman was screaming… then gunfire… seven shots, hurry."
What would be the feelings of one who had to shoot one close to them? Would it be remorse or guilt? How about the thoughts of justified killings; is there such a thing? Two people named George and Lennie are put in a situation like this. It involves a death, two actually.
but then I heard a rushing in bush next to me. My heart starts beating twice as fast, the sweat on my face felt like bullets. I make my way over to
Informational Processing, from lesson 3.04 talks about 3 different types of processing. They are called, Visual, Acoustic, and Semantic. With visual processing, you processing things such as pictures or visual memories whilst learning. An example of this in my own life would be when I see pictures in a textbook, I process them as key points so that if a test had that picture on it, I’d remember that picture and know what it’s about or what information it 's towards regarding the test. The second one, Acoustic processing, this is processing with sound.
All you hear is the shot of a gun a sharp crack piercing through the air. Confusion, panic, shock, and everything else that comes with a gunshot in a school environment washes over you and the students around you. You start to run as do the people next to you. It is all chaos and someone gets shot. You run faster and faster with no real set plan of what to do in that situation.
Systems change, this is dependent on what happens across and within the boundaries. The theory comprises of a number of important concepts, these include: Input, throughput, output, Feedback loops and entropy. It is theorized that information received by an individual across a boundary, affects their thought processes and patterns cause a change in their
Rene Descartes is considered as one of the most important founders of modern day philosophy. His greatest contribution to philosophy is his meditations. This paper aims at establishing what wax represents in Descartes meditations. In his second meditation, Descartes introduces the idea of wax freshly obtained from honeycombs.
Overall, I recognized that mediation is a much better choice than adjudication (Bishop, p. 38). Mediation not only restores relationships but it settles disputes and facilitates understanding, learning and growth (Bishop, p. 6). Additionally, the in class mediation made me realize that mediation is not linear. In a mediation, the mediator has to constantly adapt in order to move the parties closer to a solution. Furthermore, through the four in class mediations I realized that mediation could be applied to a wide variety of scenarios.
This essay will discuss the statement by William James, “-whilst part of what we perceive comes through our senses but another part (and it may be the larger part) always comes out of our head.” (James, 1890). This excerpt relates to the topic of perception, which can be defined as the acquisition and processing of sensory information to see, hear, taste, or feel objects, whilst guiding an organism’s actions with respect to those objects (Sekuler & Blake, 2002). Every theory of perception begins with the question of what features of the surrounding environment can be apprehended through direct pickup (Runeson et al. 2000). Is it only vague elemental cues that are available, and development and expansion through cognitive processes is required
What is Mediation? Prior to the parties getting involved in a mediation session it is understood that the parties are in agreeance to coming together as a means to promote and to bring forward a resolution. Anything that occurs within the session is understood to be confidential and if a party in any way shape or form feels that they no longer want to continue with the process, they have every right to end everything at that point in time. Mediation is a different yet effective way to resolve problems where the parties bring about their own solution to their problem contrary to going in front of a judge or an arbitrator whom will have full control and decide on behalf of you. Mediation helps the parties involved reach a final solution through a mutual and voluntary agreement, this is exactly what makes mediation a process that should be looked into if the situation permits it.
It is a particular type of third party involvement. The literature review explains the lack of agreement about the description of mediation, though Bercovitch explained an appropriate description. He explained mediation as a system of conflict management, linked to but particular from the parties' own attempts, where the conflicting parties or their representatives look the support, or accept an offer of support, from a person, group, organisation or state to modify, impact or impact their behaviour or perceptions, without resorting to physical force or appealing the legal authority”
