![]() Giving evidence in narrative form may also be more culturally appropriate for some witnesses and may assist child witnesses to give evidence.ĥ.8 ALRC 26 discussed criticisms of ‘free report’ or narrative evidence. However, research cited by the ALRC shows that allowing a witness to give a free report of events as a narrative may yield a significantly more accurate version, as answering specific questions may limit and distort testimony. ‘Narrative form’ refers to the witness giving evidence as a continuous story in his or her own words, uninterrupted by questions from counsel.ĥ.7 In the Interim Report of the previous Evidence inquiry, the ALRC noted that there was a general reluctance by lawyers to allow witnesses to tell their story freely, with oral evidence being limited to the answering of specific questions. However, s 29(2) of the Acts also allows a witness to give evidence wholly or partially in narrative form, where the party applies to the court for a direction allowing the witness to do so. The uniform Evidence Acts maintain the question and answer format as the primary way in which witnesses are examined. Giving evidence in narrative formĥ.6 In a trial, witnesses generally give their evidence in response to specific questions from counsel. The exceptions contained in the legislation are similar to those canvassed by the ALRC as instances where leading questions could be appropriate either to obtain the whole of a witness’ evidence or to expedite the trial. ![]() The witness is an expert and the question seeks the witness’ opinion on a hypothetical statement of facts related to the evidence being adduced.ĥ.5 This provision reflects what the ALRC considered in its final Report of the previous Evidence inquiry to be existing practices in relation to leading questions. The question relates to a matter not in dispute or No objection is made to the question (where the other party is represented by a lawyer) The matter relates to an introductory part of the witness’ evidence ĥ.4 Under s 37 of the uniform Evidence Acts, a leading question may not be put to a witness in examination in chief or re-examination except where: In order to protect the integrity of the evidence, a party who calls a witness is prevented from asking leading questions-questions that suggest a desired answer or a set of assumptions. Uniform Evidence Acts and other legislationĥ.3 It is a general principle of the common law that a witness must testify in his or her own words. ![]() How to roll out new TeamsĪs an admin, you can manage which users in your organizations see or don't see the "Try the new Teams" toggle to use the new Teams.

What is the new Teams? ![]() Improve interior ventilation as needed with exhaust fans, wall vents, and/or louvers.įor exterior conditions such as crumbly caulking, full gutters, or loose shingles, remove peeling paint by sanding, cleaning, and priming before repainting. Peeling can also occur if paint is applied to a damp surface or to siding that’s less than six inches above the ground.Ĭreate a less peel-prone environment inside and out by implementing the following recommendations. Outside the house, peeling can result from inadequate caulking, clogged gutters, a leaky roof, or interior moisture that seeps through exterior walls.Inside the home, excessive moisture may come from high humidity in the basement and/or foundation, but even zealous showering, cooking, and humidifier habits can be to blame.This can be offset by installing mechanical ventilation, preferably balanced ventilation with heat recovery -separate fans to introduce fresh air and exhaust indoor air, located together and including an air-to-air heat exchanger-or an energy-recovery ventilator (ERV), which transfers moisture from one airstream to the other. Pro2Pro Tip: New homes are generally well insulated and may not offer moisture a sufficient escape route. While improper prep and application can contribute to peeling, moisture is public enemy number one. Peeling paint that has a bit of curl to it is a common problem on both interior and exterior surfaces. When repainting to repair, you’ll likely want to apply the same product you used initially (but in subsequent projects, opt for quality latex paint, known for its adhesion and flexibility). And be patient, always remembering to let paint dry fully between coats. To avoid heavy buildup in corners where paint commonly overlaps, thoroughly feather out the cut-in area then clean and prep, reapplying paint evenly. ![]() Remove lint from a new roller cover, dip the roller into the well of the tray, then over the ribbed portion of the tray, repeating several times to evenly distribute the right amount of paint. If using a roller, fill the roller tray halfway.For brush application, dip the brush in, allowing paint to cover up to one-third of the bristle length tap the brush lightly on both sides and avoid dragging the brush against the edge of the container.Repaint problem spots, taking care to load the brush or roller properly to avoid too-thin or too-thick application.Sand, feathering the edges to blend, then clean and prime the surface.Remove all cracked and flaking paint with a scraper, wire brush, heat gun, or chemical application (depending on the extent and severity of the problem).Follow the tips detailed below for solutions. If not, with the right technique, you can repair a poorly painted spot without a lot of headache. If damage is extensive, you may need to repaint the entire surface. Over time, paint becomes brittle, making it less adaptable to temperature and humidity fluctuations. And unfortunately, cracks can appear simply due to age. Not allowing adequate dry time between coats can also lead to these problems. Over-thinning your paint or applying it too thinly can also cause it to split.Ĭonversely, a heavy hand while painting can lead to what’s called mud cracks, where too-thick paint dries with a clumpy, swollen look. Insufficient surface prep is the main culprit behind crack attacks. Such unsightliness can strike a variety of surfaces, indoors and out, from plaster to wood and siding. Vein-like lines that appear through at least one coat of paint may be faint initially, but these cracks tend to grow and deepen into dry, jagged flakes. Read on to understand the causes of common paint problems and how to repair them and avoid future issues. Such issues must be addressed, the sooner the better, not only to restore the painted surface but to investigate potential underlying problems. Some paint imperfections, however, are more conspicuous and harder to overlook. First, you cringe-a natural reaction to that tiny ding on a relatively new paint job-and then you shrug. ![]() We have salt licks here in our reserves too. They may get themselves into trouble with humans, but on the other hand they may head deep into the jungle, far from hunters, returning only periodically.Ī few years ago, in the lowland Amazonian rainforests of Peru, I filmed a herd of White-lipped Peccaries feeding at a clay salt lick: The herd certainly won’t stay on our reserves, because we have very little area at low enough elevations. This rate of attrition is not sustainable, but it will be very hard to control. I’ve heard that fourteen of the pigs in this herd have been shot and eaten when they were off our reserve. I’ve occasionally had to climb trees to escape those Amazonian herds. In the Amazon they often travel in herds of 200 or more, and such herds have been known to kill even jaguars in defense of their young. This herd apparently destroyed a neighbor’s crop field in a single hour, and when the owner tried to chase them out, they reacted aggressively. They tend to get into trouble with humans. These are challenging animals to conserve, because they range very widely. Subsequent interviews with the local people revealed that this herd had come through our Naturetrek Reserve from the foothill forests farther to the east, near Rio Negro and Cumanda, where biologists from the Universidad Estatal Amazonica (including our manager Juan Pablo Reyes) had earlier detected a population using camera traps. White-lipped Peccaries in our Cerro Candelaria Reserve. ![]() Collared Peccaries are known from cloud forests and paramos near Banos, but these White-lipped Peccaries are much more at home in Amazonian rainforests, and this new record from Cerro Candelaria Reserve is near the highest elevation ever recorded for the species. These are very large and rowdy wild pigs, much larger than the more common Collared Peccary ( Pecari tajacu). But a few weeks ago our wardens were astonished to find a large herd of White-lipped Peccaries ( Tayassu pecari) in our Cerro Candelaria Reserve. We thought we knew all the large mammal species that could be found there. ![]() My colleagues and I have been exploring what is now the Naturetrek and Cerro Candelaria Reserves for decades, and the El Placer community has been exploring it for a century. ![]() It’s intuitive and straightforward, allowing you to develop low-fidelity prototypes rapidly.īalsamiq’s pricing starts at $9 per month, allowing you to work on two projects simultaneously.
