    Semester 1 results

    Yes, unfortunately. However, if you miss PC only by 0.05, then talk to the dean or the faculty to see what they can do. Also, if it's 49 then it's worth getting a recheck, it's free if you failed and who knows there could be some error. My standard advice is take a gap semester and enjoy some...

    Carbon Tax

    This an incredibly deplorable twist of morality. Instead of placing responsibility on the wrongdoer, you're saying that it is the responsibility of the victim to make sure they are not harmed, at the same time giving liberty to the bad guys to continue to do the wrong thing. If we accept...

    Carbon Tax

    Firstly, as an ideological issue, the fact that Australia is dependent on a polluting industry for economic growth is an unconvincing argument against carbon tax. Think of this scenario - there are 3 people living in a community, person A, B and C. Person A and B makes a living by fishing and...

    Carbon Tax

    The really obvious problem with your argument is that we will never get anything done. Think of this scenario - I currently have a $1500 tax liability to the ATO this financial year. I refuse to pay on grounds that me paying my $1500 taxes will have extreme negligible effect on the Australian...

    Carbon Tax

    In that case I don't think the DAP would have any effect either. Anyway, are you suggesting that there is some fundamental economic flaws regarding the carbon tax scheme that would make it unsuccessful, or are you saying the effects of Australia by itself is so minimal that it won't have an...

    Carbon Tax

    I support it. There isn't really anything much I can do. Mainstream experts has said this problem ought to be addressed, and mainstream economists have approved the carbon tax. There is nothing ideologically wrong with the tax (as far as I can see). So what can one do? I am no economist so...

    Help deciding majors within course

    Believe it or not, accounting might suits you well. Management accounting will challenge you to come up with ideas to manage of sorts of things (budget, costs, risks...etc) Creative accounting is always an area in demand :p.

    College Conspiracy

    I only watched a bit of the clip, I think I know what the rest will be about. It's just complete non-sense, don't believe it.

    Uni Exams

    The noticeable difference is that uni exams do not generally have 'surprises'. For HSC I remember no matter how hard I look through the syllabus or how hard I studied, there are nearly always instances where I look at the question during the exam and do not know what they want. Nonetheless, uni...

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    You're answering a theoretical question with what you think would is the practical consequence. What I am asking is what would the jewish resistence be based on. Yes they did resist, but what is the theoretical basis? I put to you (without saying that it is either true or false) that when jewish...

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    It is certainly possible for them nullify the issue without seeking to be on a moral high ground. A good example is Nazi Germany's appeal to some form of social darwinism. But nonetheless I am unable to discern any coherence in your argument. Even if they had said outright 'we're both evil...

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    But no one said they are necessarily trying to 'justify' themselves, pointing at Australia's past may just be a way to 'nullify' our displeasure. Namely, 'we're both evil invaders, that's how the world works'. That wouldn't be an ignoratio elenchi, would it? Is there a way to not be pandantic...

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    Ms Coulter, don't quote it out of context, here's the whole thing: Uzbekistan is just a dummy country I use to pose this question .

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    Uzbekistan is just a dummy country I use to pose this question, I could easily use any other countries. The crux of my question is whether Australia have a moral standing when we are confronted with an invasion, given that our country is founded on the dispossession of another nation (i.e. the...

    If Uzbekistan invades Australia...

    If Uzbekistan invaded parts of Australia, and when they're asked to leave, they replied "you guys invaded the Aborigines, so suck it up". What would your response be? One of the most common responses I hear re Israel's occupation of and settlement on Palestinian land is that 'the West...

    Dalai lama unfazed by pm snub

    PM did the right thing! The Dalai lama is a wolf in sheep skin - lavishly fed by his CIA masters. He claims he support democracy, when he himself is not a democratically elected leader (the way he is 'elected' is most absurd - look it up if you care to know). Under the Dalai lama Tibet was a...
