[LINK] Search engines to be ordered to not link to academic cheating services

[Jevan Pipitone]

The issues in Tom's URLs are talking about english problems with 
international students studying at Australian universities. In fact, if 
an online method is used instead of an in-person method, and if students 
numbers are sufficient, there could be an Indian section, a Chinese 
section, a Nepal section, of the MOOC written in the language that the 
student is familiar with, the university could employ translator web 
editors to do it.

The "The Australian" newspaper online link you supplied is member-only 
and cannot be read by anyone.

What helps me with Computing, Maths, Engineering, etc study in the past 
(and it even potentially helps if I have paid work) is to do music as a 
hobby, since I play jazz piano and sing. When I was in year 11, 12 at 
school the school had a jazz music band that I joined and I am certain 
this helped with my high performance in maths/physics/computing/etc, 
everything due to the stress reducing effects of making music! I think 
ANU should allow all engineering/maths/physics/computing students to 
join an ANU jazz band without having the strict high requirements that a 
music student has, (for example no requirement to memorize songs, and 
encouraging improvisation for anyone that wants to since that is my 
strength and it should be encouraged to be creative) since the purpose 
is for relaxation, to reduce stress, in order to enhance performance in 
the more serious subjects such as computing/engineering/etc. I think the 
solution to student and staff stress is to have a jazz band(s) that 
anyone can join, if they are able to make music. Maybe even a tambourine 
if that's all they can do?

I am here for online friends, hobbies, volunteer work, and working on 
business ideas, and I am on Centrelink Disability Support Pension 
(Schizophrenia & Aspergers). I suspect that what will probably work is 
people who are on a Centrelink payment such as unemployed, disability, 
or retired, since they can benefit from me and since it allows me to 
give back to Centrelink, and also, if female friends then age 49+ and 
less attractive so that they will find me attractive, also probably 
overweight since I am overweight. However I can also work with highly 
skilled people since I can make use of what I get from them that is 
useful for me to be able to work with interesting concepts. Me:
