Ex ACT . I've obtained a copy of AUT’s policy for funding researcher travel, which allocates 30 percent more points to travel applications for researchers who identify as Māori, and 20 percent more for Pasifika. This policy will put some academics at a disadvantage relative to others, simply because they have the ‘wrong’ ancestry. Allocating travel funding based on race is a disrespect to those who would otherwise secure opportunities based on merit, or on the value their travel can offer to the university and society. After hearing reports of the existence of this policy, my office requested a copy of the points system from AUT on Wednesday morning. With no response from the university, I emailed around 500 AUT researchers over the weekend asking them if they knew about the points system and if they could provide a copy. This must have caused a stir, because yesterday morning AUT sent my office a copy of the points system, and the Vice-Chancellor sent an email to researchers and staff defending the policy. However, the Vice-Chancellor opted not to link directly to the points system so staff could easily view and understand it. I have now sent a copy of the points system to AUT researchers so they can view it themselves. Many researchers told me they were not aware of the points system, which is not listed publicly and is not easily found on internal systems. The University has not been upfront with its staff and researchers, who deserve better. -

Sheesh, I am closer to Gold Card than student card, and I almost NEVER arrive before say 1.30, gone by 5 almost always. Life is busy. Love going to the track but.....limited food options and drunks are not the drawcard for me, that they might be for some. Not to mention smokers/vapers in Ellerslie stands! -

Of course - I forgot about that one being a LR. But I don't understand why you deleted my other post. The one with the link to the Frankel fully. Not sure how it broke any rules. -
And the poor Mayor has to struggle to pay the bills on $189,000 a year. After winning $1.4m on Lotto in 2002. Two obvious questions… 1. what does she do with the money and 2. how did she ever get elected ? 🤔

A couple for Warwick Farm today. R1 Our filly Reasonable second run back from long spell $7.50 Hopeful more than confident as a tough field. Stablemate Silver Wedding, Polymnia and Dominetta will be hard to beat. R2 Another Maher runner Deconstruction good value at $11….strong win last start. Spirit of Wealth obvious danger. R3 Ahuriri….interesting that it is going straight up to 2100m ( from 1400m) with JMac on…intent there $3.50 Hawkesbury tomorrow.. R1 Blacklist $21/4. Stable have been waiting to get over further (by Redwood) and wetter the better. Form pretty ordinary but has ability from all accounts ( beat Melody Again in recent trial ) so worth following.

Can anyone explain this one , $236 million on food recycling -
TIMARU BEST BET - R10, FRANNI CACCINI, back to 2200m will help here, only concern is the draw. This course is well known for needing to be a on pace runner and a draw inside 7. Howver, happy to stay with. especially with drying track. EACH WAY -R3, FULL MOON FEVER, Consistent type who will be on pace, sitting in behind Ice-Cold Gold (known speedster), nice chance on this track from there. WATCH: R2 DONNA CHAIRA, Good second first up, 10 draws are not good here, but from NZ best stable. OTHERS: R1 LAVENDER HOPE, 3rd in list race last start, should win here on that. R3 RED LABEL, dam won 7, led at last trial, one draw and worth gold coin. R4 GAME DUKE, flew home on Sunday, draw of 4 here, good chance at 10-1. R7 THE BUFFER, loves it here, two runs in and ready to go, drying track and 1600m suits.

1400m is the furtherest for our two year olds and late-ish in the season. So you admit you were wrong then??? -
This is replicated by all of the younger ones, a day at the races is a long winded boring affair hence they don’t go For years I have been spouting start at 1.30 and finish at 5 with 10 races 20 or minutes apart Sydney and MLB have the young ones bands/discos after the last for 5 hours and the younger ones pour in at 2.30 and after, punt on 4 or 5 races then have their shindig, seems to work with big crowds of younger folk Change nothing, nothing changes

Yes but it is close even without the Electoral College. Basically a tie on the overall popular vote. One could argue the USA is lucky to have the Electoral College otherwise you'd have morallly and financially bankrupt States running the whole country. -
Record levels so someone is doing ok.Plenty of aveage Americans are in the sharemarket one way or the other. It will be a close race no doubt, primarily because of the ridiculous Electoral College situation that was for a bygone era. Until someone has the balls to change that, and that’s unlikely as it is in the US Constitution,the current circus will continue.
