No, it is a silly argument. Firstly, to go from "darkness is the absence of light" and "cold is the absence of heat" to "God is the opposite of evil" is obviously deductively invalid. The conclusion does not flow from those premises. Additionally, to say "God is the opposite of evil" is a...

Ah yes, there are great problems in placing legal limits on the body. Frigid if you read my judgment (sent it to you some time ago), those issues in Moore are discussed Haha!

That can happen when you get people doing four units of maths, chemistry, physics, economics, etc. They can then get away with doing standard English and still receive a decent UAI.

Can someone please restate the point being argued? Defining the problem goes a long way to advancing discussion and it looks like the thread has taken an unnecessary tangent into everyone’s intellectual capacities.

Re: socratic teaching method They've sort of had it but they previously had a lecture/tutorial system. All we have are "tutorials". Manly, no-one could hate you even if they wanted to, you're too nice

Re: socratic teaching method We are expected to have gone through the readings and taken notes prior to class. At UNSW law, class is meant to be a clarification, testing and polishing of the knowledge acquired through our reading. Most of the things we learn in the textbook are quite basic...

Re: Help! - The kind of situation you always fear when someone dies.... How did she assign the money to him?

Re: Failed Unit in Law On a superficial level negligence is easy, but it is not so straightforward when you get down to the real gritty stuff. However, in comparison with say, property law, it is a much more straightforward and readily understandable subject. Most students find it an...

Re: Help! - The kind of situation you always fear when someone dies.... How do you know that she gave it to him on trust -- were your family members there?

Re: socratic teaching method From my experience, the Socratic teaching method works well in UNSW law classes. It is enforced through class participation requirements. If you don't participate, you risk jeopardising up to 20% of your final mark. When students do not contribute, the teacher...

Re: Help! - The kind of situation you always fear when someone dies.... She gave it on trust to him, for the beneficiaries under the will? If so, the problem is proving that it was not a gift to him, rather that it was on trust?

You don't have to propose a solution to find fault in someone's logic. If you are serious about my thoughts on solutions, see my short essay on the topic. The password is mabo. Come back when you have finished reading.

Re: Help! - The kind of situation you always fear when someone dies.... Who are the beneficiaries of the trust?

Youki should have been playing the lead, not Pumpkin!

I accept that different races are biologically different. However, the reason I object to that particular claim is that (keeping in mind no evidence has been presented to support it) believing it makes it extremely easy to dismiss any legitimate concerns about Aboriginal health.

The inquiry continues -

No they do not. And if you actually research the views of modern Aboriginal activists you will see that they are against heavy welfare and spoon-feeding and are promoting simply the removal of barriers so that oppportunities may be taken, rather than given to them. No, that is your culture. Many...

Thanks But to borrow the words of a certain election campaign, it's time.

Great match, I was somewhat worried at the start but knew Roger would pull through. Touching moments at the end, seeing the human side heh. It was good to see how much the win and moreover the historical achievement meant to him. I laughed when he half-whimpered "thanks for the trOPHey" as...
