    Pompeii and Herculaneum Food Question

    Didn't even know the name of it..... Some of the people from my school actually when there and saw it with their Italy excursion in April this year (not bad considering we're a public school). Kinda a lame question, my teacher said it was horrible too. Rest of it was ok.

    DVD incident

    I know, and that makes it worse. But they went into the history of some of these boys, exposing their genitals to girls at school deserves a police record as it is indecent exposure. If you can get fined for having sex in a car, then willing exposing oneself in public should deserve punishment...

    Should English really be compulsory??

    Well if English wasn't compulsory we would have even more ignorance in this world. You may not like it, but you need to know how to communicate in the proper form and be able to write - especially if you want to go on to higher education or if you want to be a teacher. Yes the course needs to...

    DVD incident

    They're MISOGYNIST PIGS! I hope those boys and those who supported the DVD rot in hell. Society has no place for sickos like them! They aren't even human. Perhaps they should be treated to the same... I wonder how they would like being pissed on, ejaculated on, forced to perform oral sex...

    Howard's migration plan

    An ideal values test would be asking about Aussie laws. Such as: At what age are all citizens required to vote? Is it legal to arrange marriages for your children? When must children attend formal schooling? At what age do children legally become adults? Are husbands allowed to do what they...

    Islam

    Perhaps that those muslims against those extreamists should be making their own jihad (if the meaning above is true): one that ensures peace and understanding. People are only afraid of what they don't understand, therefore wouldn't it be logical for the moderates of the world to step up...

    Any Asian girls whose parents are against them dating "Westerners"?

    Case in point: A man who's friends with my dad married a Phillippino woman (who is also muslim). He's embraced the culture and the religion, and she has also embraced the Aussie way of life. Their daughter is married to an Aussie and they also have a daughter. They're pretty cool people, very...

    Islam

    Just remember that Christans interpret the Bible the wrong way too. Between the Jews, the Catholics and the Anglicans, the books of the bible are "chosen" to reflect the teachings that the religion (or strain of religion) want to impose. It is also said that many regard the bible as the word of...

    Being shortsighted....how worse can it get??

    The only thing i know about laser surgery is that you have to be at least 25, but it depends on the surgeon. I think they have to do a few tests to make sure that the lasering will make things better or not, and if your eyes are stable enough. I think there are some things that they are not...

    Are the yr 9 courses in the School Certificate?

    In a nutshell - YOU MUST TURN UP TO CLASSES FOR 85+% OF THE TIME. On your transcript that you get when you are given your SC, they list all the courses you have taken from year 7 to year 10. Most will have something like "completed" to say that you have taken the courses and have met the...

These are all important to the lead up to the HSC as they can help...

    Religion & Relationships

    Parents have the right to choose their child's religion for them, and it says so in the Family Law Act 1975 (Commonwealth). Children are able to follow or not follow religion and convert ONLY when they are able to understand. Catholic church says that this age is 7, others think that children...

    Uai Prediction - Selective School

    Your UAI will all depend on: 1) Your HSC exam marks - ok you may bomb it or you may not. 2) Your school assessments from year 12 - good for getting you up there if you are no good at exams. Other factors include what people from other schools are getting in relation to you, and your in-school...

    Plan for year 12

    Ok. Try and keep study to about 15mins to start off with and increase it to longer before exams (roughly an hour with 10-15 min break in between). Remember to factor in times to go out and to not think about school cuz trust me... relaxation time is just as important in HSC success than study...

    Howard's migration plan

    Not really. In some ways 'yes' with some groups refusing to intergrate, but that can be seen outside of the minority of Muslims that Howard refers to. 'No' because there are more ethnic and religious groups in the world that migrate here that cannot speak English and to be comparable to other...

    Smacking your kids

    I agree, and the way things are going now, we already have a generation of terrors. I don't remember being smacked, even though mum and dad said they did. I turned out fine. I think the legal smacking is underneath the shoulders and above the knee, not hard enough to create a bruise but for...

    Being shortsighted....how worse can it get??

    I started out with -0.25 in 2003 and now i'm up to -2 It's now at the point that I cannot do anything with long distances without wearning my glasses, so I miss life before I had them. But at least I don't squint anymore! At least I can get contacts now =) but because my perscription isn't...

    Religion & Relationships

    Re: Inter-racial Relationships Just because I do read and educate myself so that I can be a better person, doesn't mean that i am pretending to be an expert. At least I am not ignorant.
