    http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23438866-2,00.html I love that news.com.au now has an in-depth feature section devoted to Corey.

    Five men charged over Lindsay leaflet scandal

    http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/lib-charges-over-leaflet/2008/03/22/1205602728688.html I think a 'senior Liberal MP' saying that "this was the most momentous incident ever in the history of the Liberal Party" might be a bit of an overstatement. Most comical incident ever, maybe.

    2007 THES Rankings

    http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/macquarie-uni-falls-in-list/2007/11/08/1194329413250.html So a note to those people who think university rankings have any sort of meaning: they don't. There is no way that a university can drop 86 places in one year, it just doesn't happen. The THES...

    2008 U.S. Election

    Next year's presidential election is shaping up to be massively awesome. Thoughts or favourite candidates, anyone? I'm personally hoping the Dems nominate Hillary Clinton and the Republicans John McCain. I'd prefer Hillary to win, but I'd be reasonably sort of OK with McCain, my main problems...

    APEC Protests

    Are today. Not a very nice day for it. Currently: (http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/09/08/2027500.htm) You can even watch live thanks to the ABC: http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/09/08/2027500.htm (apparently only available in WMV so far.) Looks to be pretty much a lot of...

    US Studies Centre board announced

    http://www.usyd.edu.au/news/84.html?newsstoryid=1887 Do any of them have any links to Rupert Murdoch or George Bush? Because if they do the SRC will go insane.

    GOVT1105 Geopolitics

    Surely out of the ~5000000 people doing this subject there must be a BOSer other than me. Any thoughts on Diarmuid's mumblings? Anyone been as nerdy as me and already read through the articles for the first assignment?

    WebCT updating

    I got an email on Friday from the coordinator of the HSTY course I'm enrolled in saying that the course outline, which I want to take a look at because I'm still undecided as to whether to do the subject, was up on WebCT. However, I'm still getting a list of last semester's subs, which...

    NSW introduces new standards for student teachers

    http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/06/26/1961998.htm Gasp! Political correctness! And ... how is anti-racism (which I assume is what Stoner means by 'racism' in that context) too politically correct to be taught in schools? Interesting that grammar and spelling will be tested. You'd...

    Timetables now available through MyUni. Procrastinate with me and post them! Here's my original, unpleasant (finishing at 5pm? Coming in on Thursdays for a tute? Seriously, it ain't happening) one: Will post again once I've made it nicer.

    HSTY1034 Early Modern Europe

    Anyone done this course? I'm enrolled for it, but the course description seems a bit vague and I'm wondering if it'd be better to switch to a different HSTY course. Or even a different subject altogether, since ANHS will fulfil the prereqs for senior history.

    http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/now-paulines-for-a-united-australia/2007/05/24/1179601573572.html Have there been any elections since 1996 in which she hasn't stood? Seriously, Pauline, you were a flash in the pan. It's over now.
