Apostrophes, Plurals, and Names. Here's the problem the Victoria's Secret writers faced: Body is a brand name, which makes it a proper noun like any other name, but body is also a wordâa common nounâthat everyone knows. It presents them with a great opportunity to make a play on words, which they did in the ad.
How does a TASER work? TASERs work by firing two pronged darts which are propelled by compressed nitrogen. The darts are tethered to insulated copper wire which conduct the electricity from the TASER into the attackerâs body. When both darts hit, an electrical circuit is completed and electricity flows through the attackerâs muscles causing him to lose voluntary muscle control.
Taser shock vs. others: 1  When fired, a Taser can emit an initial charge of up to 50,000 volts. By the time it comes in contact with the body, the charge is usually diminished to about 1,800 volts. 2  Electroconvulsive therapy: 100 to 450 volts. 3  Household shock: 150 volts.  Defibrillator: 450 to 750 volts.
