NYU, in addition to its main campus in New York City, has campuses in Accra, Tel Aviv, plus a bunch of other European and Latin American cities that I can't remember, which are open to non-NYU students to spend a semester or two studying in. Has anyone had any experience with the NYU...

Wow, BOS returns. And the road engineers ad is still going strong. Anyway, vague chance that anyone is/was studying Jewish or Hebrew studies at UniMelb to tell me what it's like? I plan to start in second semester. Is there a focus on modern Israel or is it mainly the non-modern history of...

I am very sad. But Malcolm is probably too impatient and too active to hang around until after the next election, where he could of claimed the leadership and and take the Liberal Party into territory it could be proud of. With Minchin and possibly Abbott gone, his task would have been easier...

Needless to say, I did, and i really really really really enjoyed it. I even nearly leaked some tears and i never cry in movies. Zac when he was a little boy reminded me so much of me, i was all feminine and weed the bed. So, did anyone watch it on SBS1 last night, opinions, sharing of...

Yo wazzup. I am heading OS in May, with a month or so in Spain/Portugal with a friend, and then I have to go to the UK to get work because I will be massively pov by this stage. So has anyone had experience as an Australian getting work in the UK, or getting work there in general? Is it...

Hey does anyone know of really good European or British music/arts festivals on in 2010? I'm there for almost six months. Glastonbury is too expensive. Country is of no real importance. I have a vague memory of someone telling me about a really amazing one in Eastern Europe somewhere but...

This is a piece from ABC News online. Let's discuss the Hanson legacy. The last paragraph is quite a bold statement, and I can't really decide whether I agree or not. I have seen very impassioned anti-racist moments through Australian politicians but maybe it is possible to distinguish a...

Sorry to go overboard on the OPs but I'm all inspired. So...as we saw out the first decade of the new millenium, what where the songs/bands that defined YOUR 2009? Because i turned 18, they were actually really shit stuff like Wearing my Rolex and Dizzee Rascal because that's all I heard...

Pretty much a thread to post up what music that you were into as a kid, or that defines your growing up. I guess alot of that music comes from stuff my brothers and sisters liked (i have 5 siblings), so there's heaps of random stuff like: - Alanis Morissette - anything by Savage Garden -...

So I have a few long-haul flights booked for this year and I've mad emy New Year's resolution to join the Mile High Club, so how does one go about having sex on a plane? I mean obviously the toilets would be best as like doing it in public is a bit unwelcome, but I've never figured out how to do...

Being a recent convert to ABC3 when I'm not at work (bring on Johnson and Friends!!!) I am beginning to see a major plot flaw in Jeopardy. How the fuck don't their cameras run out of battery??? Like they spend three weeks trapped in the Australian bush, not to mention six weeks in an alien...

Hello there. I was wonderin' if at UTS they offer courses during the summer, so you can complete some of your subjects during the break. I have been thinking I'll probably want to to defer some semesters to do other stuff, but as my planned degree is 5 years, it'd be good if i could make it...

Hello. Townie has rejizzed threads, but this falls into both travel and finance i suppose. Does anyone have an ISIC? I am going O/S for long time this year and i thought they might be useful ... but are they? I had a dream last night that everyone said they're shit so that's got me scared...

Hello I just tried to ring the visa information line for the U.K. and got hung up on 5 times, and never even got to talk to a person, so I'm trying to ask my questions here too: So, in regard to a U.K. Ancestry (Right of Ancestry) Visa to the U.K. 1. Is the five year period it's valid...

Had no idea what section to post this on. How do you learn Arabic in Australia? Would I be better advised to get a private tutor or are there organisations that run lessons which would be better/cheaper? Currently in Year 12 and I don't think the unis I've been looking at (UTS and USYD) offer...

Yes this is a shameless rip off of a Dangerous Ideas talk but I thought I better front up with something in light of recent post: Do you think anything justifies experiments involving animals? A cure for cancer? Has anyone used live animals in experiments and why did they choose to do...

6 out of the first 7 topics on this forum concern religion, some of which were started by (and often largely populated by) trolls. I think NCAP standards have been falling, and I'm sick to death of talking about religion. I know that to make that better people need to create better threads...

As I'm tasmazing and was, until Sunday, underage, my fav musical experiences are somewhat limited, but two notables are: Franz Ferdinand playing 'Michael' at Falls last year - I came and thrashed around everywhere. John Butler trio doing Sunrise Over Sea in like Grade 9 at Falls. bootyful...

Halo. Me and two other friends are heading to Sydney for FODI, uni-viewing and a general vacation. Any cool bars we could frequent for the weekend? We just want something laid back/alternative/maybe gay friendly (two out of three are raging homos) Suggestions would be rad shanks.

Some poems noel. And: I went into a really strange mood and started writing compulsively the other night. What think?
