  • Requirements for expulsion in Australian (NSW) schools?

    Is there a guideline or a list reasons why a student can get expelled from a NSW high school? ...Got threatened with expulsion for organising a party involving the whole grade. Can this work? If a large party is not in any way affliated with a school, it cannot be a valid reason for expulsion, right? It seems illogical to me...

  • Movie reviews are biased?

    Here's the thing. I tried going on rottentomatoes or IMBD for reviews on A Nightmare on Elm Street, and all of then said the film was crap. At first I thought ok, maybe the trailer was misleading. Then I realised that all of the comments made were by people who have seen the original, and all said that "the original was better". I want to know where I can find a proper review by someone who hasn't seen the original. I mean, for the older community out there obviously the new film won't live up to the old one's standards, but since I haven't seen the old film, what would my reaction be to watching this remake?

  • Buying a guitar 1.5k, need a bit of advice?

    Hey guys, I live in Australia and I'm thinking of buying a pretty decent acoustic guitar since I want to move on from my old acoustic.

    Anyway, I live in Australia and I went to a store to check out some of these guitars.

    I managed to narrow my choice down to a few guitars.

    -Epiphone Black Beauty

    -Epiphone Les Paul Custom

    -Gibson USA Les Paul Junior

    -Epiphone SG (I don't know which one, perhaps G-400)

    I can get all of these with an amp for about 1.5k AUD

    (I heard there were slight differences between SG and Les Paul in the sound, but I'm not sure what)

    So basically if anyone can give me some advice on quality, pricing, and basically anything that might alter my decision I will be very grateful

    Thanks!

  • Information about psychiatry for a high school student?

    I have to pick subjects for year 11 soon, and as for my future career I was thinking of becoming a psychiatrist.

    I was just wondering what subjects I should pick to head in that direction, and how long I would have to study after that. Is it a sub-specialisation? Any other things I should know which may influence my career choice?

    Stuff like that,

    thanks!

  • the taxi driver, a funny joke?

    once again, this isnt my original joke.

    A wealthy Chicago businessman goes to Vegas and loses all but three dollars. He comes out of the casino and waves a taxi over. How much is a ride to the airport?" The driver replies that it is $5. "Come on I only have $3, but I'll pay you $10 when I get home by mailing you a check."" said the man. "No way" replies the Driver and throws him out of the car.

    Two years later the man comes back and goes to the same casino. This time he wins money. As he exits the casino, he sees a long line of Taxi drivers.. and at the end is his enemy from two years ago.

    Seeing this, the man decides to get his revenge. He goes up to the first Taxi and says: "hey will you give me a *******?" the taxi driver says: "no you freak, get out of my car!"

    The man then goes on to the next car and says: "hey will you give me a *******?" the taxi driver says: "no you maniac, get out of my car!" The man continues to do this all down the line until he reaches the last taxi, and sees his enemy.

    The man asks: "how much for a ride to the airport?" Not reconising him the driver replies: "$5" "Okay." says the man and he gets in. Then as he passes the line of other taxis, he sticks his hands out the window and gives them all a big thumbs up.

    star it if you like!

  • Funny joke - Weight Loss?

    Saw it on a website, not mine, but its really funny-

    A man calls a company and orders their 5-day, 10 lb. weight loss program.

    The next day, there's a knock on the door and there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic, 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nike running shoes and a sign around her neck.

    She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company.

    The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me."

    Without a second thought, he takes off after her.

    A few miles later huffing and puffing, he finally gives up.

    The same girl shows up for the next four days and the same thing happens.

    On the fifth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 10 lbs. as promised.

    He calls the company and orders their 5-day/20 pound program.

    The next day there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning and beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life.

    She is wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign around her neck that reads, "If you catch me you can have me."

    Well, he's out the door after her like a shot.

    This girl is in excellent shape and he does his best, but no such luck.

    So for the next four days, the same routine happens with him gradually getting in better and better shape.

    Much to his delight on the fifth day when he weighs himself, he discovers that he has lost another 20 lbs. as promised.

    He decides to go for broke and calls the company to order the 7-day/50 pound program.

    "Are you sure?" asks the representative on the phone. "This is our most rigorous program."

    "Absolutely," he replies, "I haven't felt this good in years."

    The next day there's a knock at the door; and when he opens it he finds a huge muscular guy standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads,"If I catch you, you are mine!!!"

    He lost 63 pounds that week.

  • Beer and Ice Cream Diet, something interesting to read...?

    I got this from http://www.funs.co.uk/fs/main.htm btw, I didn't make it up. I believe it's interesting enough to share. Star it if you like it.

    Justification for beer and Ice cream! But stay away from the pizza!

    As we all know, it takes 1 calorie to heat 1 gram of water 1 degree centigrade. Translated into meaningful terms, this means that if you eat a very cold dessert (generally consisting of water in large part), the natural processes which raise the consumed dessert to body temperature during the digestive cycle literally sucks the calories out of the only available source, your body fat.

    For example, a dessert served and eaten at near 0 degrees C (32.2 deg. F) will in a short time be raised to the normal body temperature of 37 degrees C (98.6 deg. F). For each gram of dessert eaten, that process takes approximately 37 calories as stated above. The average desser tportion is 6 oz, or 168 grams. Therefore, by operation of thermodynamiclaw, 6,216 calories (1 cal./gm/deg. x 37 deg. x 168 gms) are extracted from body fat as the dessert's temperature is normalized.

    Allowing for the 1,200 latent calories in the dessert, the net calorie loss is approximately 5,000 calories.

    Obviously, the more cold dessert you eat,the better off you are and the faster you will lose weight, if that is your goal.

    This process works equally well when drinking very cold beer in frosted glasses. Each ounce of beer contains 16 latent calories, but extracts 1,036 calories (6,216 cal. per 6 oz. portion) in the temperature normalizing process. Thus the net calorie loss per ounce of beer is 1,020 calories. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate that 12,240 calories (12 oz. x 1,020 cal./oz.) are extracted from the body in the process of drinking a can of beer.

    Frozen desserts, e.g., ice cream, are even more beneficial, since it takes 83 cal./gm to melt them (i.e., raise them to 0 deg. C) and an additional 37 cal./gm to further raise them to body temperature. The results here are really remarkable, and it beats running hands down.

    Unfortunately, for those who eat pizza as an excuse to drink beer, pizza (loaded with latent calories and served above body temperature) induces an opposite effect. But, thankfully, as the astute reader should have already reasoned, the obvious solution is to drink a lot of beer with pizza and follow up immediately with large bowls of ice cream.

    We could all be thin if we were to adhere religiously to a pizza, beer, and ice cream diet.

    Now can someone tell me if this is true or just bullcrap?
