    European Anger as China Executes Briton

    It's sad how the Chinese authorities have $$ to gain for every execution they make (organ harvesting), which gives them a strong motive to perform them.

    European Anger as China Executes Briton

    If the story were true, and the alleged drug trafficker had been hoodwinked by criminal masterminds, then this is a gross injustice done against him. Unfortunately we cannot do anything about it as we cannot interfere in the legal system of another country. When I say "cannot" I mean it in the...

    Snobberry at university

    "Riff raff?" This may sound cliched, but it's true; education should not be limited to those fortunate enough to be born into a wealthy family. Some among the "riff raff" that you are talking about may have the talent and potential to make a worthwhile contribution to society. It is not...

    Snobberry at university

    Come on guys, you don't have to be so hostile towards him!! Anyway, to answer your question OP, I am pretty sure that there will be some snobs at every uni; you cannot avoid them. However, you don't need to associate with them if you don't want to. Just don't let them get to you. Cheers.

    High ATAR = obsessive parents, selective schools, tutoring

    Is Rudd a good PM/leader?

    Is he a good PM? We shouldn't be asking that. What we should be asking is whether he is better than other PM candidates. We can moan and groan and say that he's bad, but what are the alternatives? Malcolm Turnbullshit? I reckon voting is not to put the best government in, but to keep the...

    Australian Science Olympiads

    Hey guys, For the chem NQE, I was just wondering how many marks (approximately, I know it varies) you need to get a HD or an offer (out of 120) - because I tried the 2007 one (from the website) and marked it according to the marking scheme given. I ended up with 101.5/120. What would that be...

    Tamil Tigers

    Let's start at the beginning, when the British conquered Sri Lanka in the 1800's. To rule Sri Lanka, the British applied a 'divide and conquer' tactic - they favoured the minority Tamils against the Sinhalese majority to get the two parties fighting each other instead of the British. After...
