D Block Physical Geography - For work today, you'll need to answer "Identify at least three conditions that are necessary for the formation of karst topography" (p.254 in Geosystems Core Text). For cool pictures of solution cave formations check out The Virtual Cave. Also if you wish to see these features "live" you could travel 40 kilometres south and go to the Horn Lake Caves. We'll watch the Planet Earth Cave episode. This will help you with the questions on chemical weathering, Karst topography and solution cave formation.
Check out the National Geographic article "Cave of the Crystal Giants" which is about Cueva de los Cristales, or Cave of Crystals, a limestone cavern with glittering selenite crystal beams discovered in 2000 nearly a thousand feet below ground in the Naica mine in northern Mexico.
C Block Human Geography - Today we'll finish the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown visit to Hawai'i. We are watching this to examine the concept of local (folk) culture through an exploration of what it means to be Hawaiian and the challenges that poses with a global (popular) culture. Remember from the video yesterday, living in Hawai'i doesn't make you Hawaiian, it makes you a resident of Hawai'i. So, often people confuse culture and identity and food .
After, you'll have some questions to work on for me and one of your questions is:
Indicate some food taboos, along with the cultures that practice them, in the chart below. To help...
Your other questions:
- Consumption of large quantities of snack foods and alcoholic beverages are characteristic of popular culture. Explain how each of these food preferences are expressed regionally, according to culture.
- What foods do you avoid? Do you avoid foods because of taboos or for other reasons?
- Do your food preferences match the predominant ones in your region?

B Block Legal Studies - To start I'll have you work in partners on the R. v. Clayton (2007) case on page 156 and on the R. v. Shankar (2007) case on page 159 in the All About Law text (that's the talky part of class, right?)
For Clayton
- Why shouldn’t police be allowed to stop and search anyone that could possibly be guilty of some wrongdoing?
- Should police be allowed to ask questions and detain someone even if they don’t have reasonable and probable grounds to arrest or charge that person? What potential issues arise if police were not able to detain individuals for investigative purposes or ask questions?
- Would or should the result have been different if the 911 caller had been very specific and had identified only one car?
- Would or should the result have been different if the caller had seen marijuana instead of guns?
- Would or should the result have been different if the caller did not give the 911 operator any specific details about the men or their vehicles?
- Why is evidence that is obtained in violation of s. 8 or s. 9 rights sometimes excluded? Should this happen?
For Shankar
- Although the trial judge stated that the extended search was not reasonably necessary and was a section 8 Charter breach, he still admitted the guns into evidence. Why do you think he did this?
- What arguments do you think Shankar could make to support his view that the evidence should not have been admitted pursuant to section 24(2) of the Charter?
- What does “police search incident to arrest” mean and how does “police search incident to arrest” apply in this case? Explain.
- Describe how a search warrant is obtained and used.
- Outline the important exceptions to search laws for illegal drug and gun offences.
- In order to prove that a warrantless search was reasonable, what does the Crown need to show
- In determining whether a person has a reasonable expectation of privacy in a given situation, what considerations would a court take into account?
A Block Criminology - Shoplifting is a thing, right?
How much of a problem is it?
Is it really common? Why
So, target hardening and removal strategies
Today's Fit...
