I find the topic of history and memory quite difficult to really pin down and say anything absolute about. (That could be because history offers one perspective, memory another and each may say a different thing to the other --> postmodernist "there are no absolute truths" --> ultimate...

Zinc oxide is amphoteric (acidic or basic), so it would depend on how it was produced.

Basic ones are footsteps, shoes, road, hill, tracks, airport etc. All very cliche, but if you think about things commonly encountered on a physical journey you might be inspired to think of something a bit more original.

Polymerisation of ethylene is an addition reaction, therefore the double bonds break into single bonds. The intiator creates an activated ethylene molecule (by attaching to it), and is used in the reaction (unlike a catalyst). Propagation occurs when the 'activated' molecule connects...

Just remember, all you need to do is pass your preliminary subjects. That said, I would put lots of effort into nailing the prelim Maths courses, as up to 20% of these can be examined in the HSC. Don't worry too much about Year 11 - if you put in the most effort you can and get fantastic...

Considering the score was 3-0 at half time with Kennedy, Cahill and Bresciano scoring, no bet :)

Totally evolution over creationism - the earth being created in six days is the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. It's funny because I go to a Christian school and when we were talking about oil in Chemistry, my teacher was all 'The universe is only 15000 years old and oil doesn't take...

'Space Oddity' by David Bowie is the only 'phys journey' song I can think of at the moment. Can't blame you for not wanting to do another poem!!

Don't forget to mention the problem of getting rid of the waste produced by the fermentation process!

Thanks heaps!

The syllabus dot point says "describe the dehydration of ethanol to ethylene and identify the need for a catalyst in this process and the catalyst used" I know that the catalyst used may be either concentrated sulfuric or phosphoric acid, but I don't know why it's used. Is it just to...

This afternoon I was craving cinnimon-and-sugar palmiers (puff pastry snacks). That was rather unusual. My most common crave would have to be cookies and cream ice cream. Hmmmmmm....

You've done well in identifying + focusing on "some important youth issues" but you've neglected the other part of the question - "advise parents/caregivers on how they can best support their children". You've said good things like "It is the responsibility of parents to remind their...

Okay, I haven't read any of the above posts, but here's what I think (purely my opinion): God does not exist. 1) "God" didn't write the bible. It was written by man. 2) Why would he kill his own creations? 3) The earth WAS NOT created in seven days - we know this as fact. And if we cannot...

For girls: Tommy Girl YSL Baby Doll J-Lo's Glo For guys, there is only one and that is Tommy Hilfiger.

Age: 16 Sex: Female Location: About two hours south of Sydney (Nowra) Ethnicity: English. Born in Australia. What stereotypes do you usually associate with teenagers of the higher class? The automatic response when I think of other higher class teenagers is I usually think of them as...

Sure, I'll help. And by the way, you're right ("when everything else fails, play dead). That's the only way some people survived the Virginia Tech massacre. Good advice.

nichhhole - yeah, you're doing 4U maths and 4U English; of course you are better than me. Even I know when I am (and my associated ego) are beaten. But to save any further confusion, I shall take down my 'own' quotes. To the edit function!

Yeah, I do have ego. Obviously. But these are actually things I've said, which my friends have quoted. So I do consider them quotes. Maybe it's against "Legham's rules in the world of quoting" but I really don't care, because I am quite happy in my own little world.

Just wondering quickly, if anyone out there has heard of Adam Federici? He plays for Reading FC.
