I'm happy with Intelligent Design being taught as part of the Religion or Philosophy courses, but I'm flat out against it being taught in the science cirriculum. Evolution is by no means the ultimate answer based on the evidence we have, but it has far more scientific backing to it than...

23 is a large class. I have two classes that are bigger than that, GMaths and English, and Chem if you count year 12. Our school doesn't run things unless they're an Ext course or has about 13+people, so I was annoyed I didn't get Legal or Business, glad I got IPT Our school is that small...

There's displacement reactions, redox reactions, galvanic cells, electromotive force and electrode potential. Electrolysis was written out of the syllabus, I'm pretty sure. I_F

Make sure you're allowing sites to set Cookies. Open up the IE Tools menu -> Options -> Privacy tab. Then make sure the slider is set to Medium or Medium-High. See if that helps. I_F

The focal length is equal to a in the equation x² = 4ay. If you're given a question such as this: You divide the coefficient of y by 4 (from the equation: 8 = 4a, therefore a = 8/4), and then you get a (in this case, a = 2). If you get a question like this: The focal length is equal to...

I'm pretty sure we're looking at: Area of Study: Imaginative Journey, Coleridge Module A: Brave New World + Blade Runner Module B: King Lear Module C: Telling the Truth - Frontline I_F

That sounds better. :p I_F

That's a lie. I've seen Year 3 writing and it's beautiful. They haven't figured out that the teacher was lying when he said their teeth would fall out if they wrote outside the nice straight lines. Year 6 writing though... *shudder* I_F

There's a guy in my year who's handwriting is so bad that he had to ask someone to help him translate it. I_F

wat i mean by in sync, is why i thought getting from dell is better. i thought dell gets hardware that works well together, eg some brand of harddrive and RAM work best together, so then if u build it urself, u might buy brands which arent best together. or does dell just get any hardware...

Most importantly in my opinion, ATi has struggled very hard to ensure this time round the new card on the block isn't just a paper launch. It's a pity that they haven't been as successful as NVIDIA - the 7800 GTX and GT launches were superb, with product ready to go on launch day. The R5-...

For graphics cards, clockspeed really isn't that important. More important are the number if pixel and vertex shader pipelines and the particular architecture (some games just like NVIDIA cards over ATi, and vice-versa). Example - the current NVIDIA 7800 GTX is clocked at around 430 Mhz. Its...

I think the answer's wrong as well. Your reasoning works out, so in all likeliness it's probably a misprint in the answers. I_F

When you assume the formula true for n = k: 5+10+15+...+5k=5/2 k (k+1) ... you're saying that the equation is true for all numbers up to k. When you prove for n = k+1... 5+10+15+...+5k+5(k+1)=5/2 (k+1) (k+1+1) ... your assumption of 5+10+15+...+5k=5/2 k (k+1) equals the part in the...

I got that email. I assumed that some spammer has simply lifted the boredofstudies.org URL, which is very well known to students, and used to to give their spam some more legitimacy. It's not too hard to fake the address line in emails these days (i.e. the noreply@boredofstudies.org), and you...

I got my A.Mus on piano! w00t! :D A friend of mine plays the oboe. He called it Bobo... "Bobo the Oboe"... mmm... I_F

There appears to have been outbreaks in Europe, with cases in chickens reported in Turkey and Romania. The EU is now scrambling to ensure that there isn't an outbreak. Experts say that a pandemic isn't likely, but if one does occur, it could kill 700,000 Britons in its first few months...

Average Propensity to Consume = Amount Consumed for Certain Income Level/That Certain Income Level. Basically, it's the percentage of your total income that you spend on goods and services (i.e. don't save). As a general rule, for low income earners, the APC is high, and it steadily decreases...

Not sure about the max/min values, but the parabola y^2 = 4ax is certainly part of the 2 unit course. I_F

My 4 unit Maths class will be starting up later this week. But it changes from school to school. Ask your teacher. I_F
