Surprise...surprise. 2 additional compulsory subjects?

I am baffled by the "new" departmental policy in unimelb. We must now take 2 compulsory subjects to confirm our PhD candidature. This is ridiculous. When I came in last Oct nobody mention anything about this, I was inducted by a staff instead of the usual induction course becasue it;s half of the semester already but she failed to mention this.

My supv is not around for a few months so I should have taken and passed all the courses by that time,. Now I'm fully doing my research and have to be burdened by these 2 courses. Some of my friend whom came last year also did not know about this policy.



The complexity of my PhD. Arrghhhh.....

Great Double Decker Caravan

Välkommen till Skandinaviens ledande husvagnstillverkare - KABE Husvagnar AB Wow expensive at Euro 105,000. The lower deck features a living room, kitchen and breakfast dinette, plus a bedroom with single beds. Hmm This is complete place to bring along on the road. The upper deck has a 'lounge' with an L-shaped sofa and a cocktail cabinet. A door from the lounge leads out onto the roof of the front section, which serves as a sunbathing terrace. Perfect portable home I would say. http://www.kabe.se/tower/

More than 400km/h in 2.5 seconds and 2.2 seconds to make it stop to a complete stop. Wow wow wow. On the other side Proton created a working electric vehicle already and sent it to JPM for trying it out. Read details here . When can we buy it? I hope it can get >20 km/l as Honda Insights or Toyota Prius. But I saw a charging station needed. I would prefer the EV like Honda Insights or Toyota Prius, with petrol and battery. There’s no need for a charging battery station. Did Proton make a wrong move? What if there’s no more juice in the car and there’s no charging station around? Anyway, enough for today. Later…

Hmm..another point for evolutionism vs creationism

So are the human evolve or created as a whole from the start? The link here. The whole story reproduce. Two-million-year-old hominid sheds light on evolution MAROPENG, South Africa (AFP) - Two skeletons of a new hominid species dating back two million years and found in South Africa have shed light on a previously unknown stage in human evolution, scientists said Thursday. Baptised Australopithecus sediba, the partially fossilized specimens -- an adult female and a juvenile male -- were found in 2008 in a cavern 40 kilometres (24 miles) from Johannesburg. In Pictures Decoding the past: The Atom-smasher in action Ancient history: Dinosaurs roam the world "They, ladies and gentlemen, are potentially a Rosetta stone into the past," Lee Berger, a paleo-anthropologist at the University of Witwatersrand, told a press conference at the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site. "They represent a completely new and unexpected species of human ancestor to scie
