i'm sure this has been posted before, but note that 95 in ext 2 maths is an and/or with the band 6 in science subjects. basically it's just so that maths is considered a science.

I'm not sure but I don't think the Americans ever intended to launch a nuclear strike on Cuba. The most belligerent option would probably have been an invasion of the island, which might have been met with tactical nuclear weapons by the Soviets, or even a strategic nuclear attack on the...

But in that case, the rioters were just 'defending' Cronulla because that's where they live. That's a ridiculous argument to make. This sort of violence is wrong, no matter what suburb you're in, and the defence of innocent civilians against it should be left to the police.

No, we're talking about student body elections. frog12986 suggested his student fees were going towards student political groups (like the Greens) supported by a "minute few". The fact that they receive more votes in the student elections indicates that they are not, in fact, supported by just a...

No, the total amount of green or socialist candidates elected is greater than the total amount of liberal candidates elected (usually by a significant margin). That's only true if you believe a vocational, degree-factory university is as valuable to society as one which encourages the...

Are you suggesting that the police have caught Lebanese gangs in the process of bashing people, but have chosen to let them go? I don't really see what reason the police would have for not exerting their power on any violent antagonists, and I thought they had in fact arrested people in the last...

Possibly you should post something there before sending people to it? Most people from the USyd forum would know that I am pretty strongly against VSU. Current union services definitely need a shakeup, but as the Vice-Chancellors Committee said, full VSU is 'an elephant to squash an ant'. I...

Nostradamus wrote thousands of verses, each of which can be interpreted in many ways. He's bound to get something right, some time, and we conveniently ignore the huge majority of times that he's way off. To me it seems like there is not enough genuine competition between world powers for a...

The fall of the Soviet Union is a massive topic and you might do better to pick something more specific within that general region. I'm not sure what this could be, I didn't do modern history, but something along the lines of "the role of Gorbachev in the fall of the Soviet Union" or "the extent...

They may only interview for the Undergraduate Scholarships under their jurisdiction.

ok :) (10 chars)

I don't imagine they'll be out for all courses. When I checked a few days ago, it said results for my course (adv sci/eng) would be suppressed until the examiners met, and unlocked on December 1, which is still 3 days away.

Me too, I'm fairly happy with that considering my second program didn't work properly since I left it too late.

Of course they are, but a long-dead thread seemed an odd place to put it, as opposed to making a new thread or just searching for the answer.

Lol, s1mplykat, dragging up a 2-year-old thread to ask a simple question :)

Have you posted your essay?

You may run into trouble in that Dan Brown acknowledges he is writing fiction, no matter how historically based it is. He doesn't really distinguish between what he thinks is actually true, and what's just in there to make the story more exciting or controversial. I also think that analysing his...

The R data is only giving us percentile sort of things: so you can see where your observed value would go in the distribution. You still have to figure out the observed value yourself ... perhaps the most you could tell is what index the t-distribution has.

But that was before the court case, after which point ARIA and co. had a more centralised way of stopping music piracy, or at least recouping damages for their losses.

The legal cases involving file-sharing programs at the moment, as far as I can see, actually reduce the likelihood that end users will be prosecuted for downloading music. By ruling that companies like Sharman (who operate Kazaa) can be held responsible for copyright infringement by users of...
