Guest 2Admin2 Report post Posted February 17, 2016 I notice that there haven't been any NZTR News Bulletins (once called "From the Horse's Mouth) posted on their website for a month. Even then the last one has more advertising than analysis. I suppose Purcella's paper in Mumbai took a lot more time to create than we realise. Or are the results not so good?

Guest 2Admin2 Report post Posted February 21, 2016 I see three bulletins have been added. Reading them I'd say they were written by an external agency i.e. paid for. If that's the case why publish on your website "advertorial" for events that occurred 2-3 weeks previously? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelseacol 2,488 Report post Posted February 21, 2016 we did see it I think Biff - it was 3 powerpoint slides with 11 or 12 headings just setting out a framework for a breakout session. Based on that the detailed letter I wrote to a client last week was the equivalent of War & Peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midget 4,489 Report post Posted February 21, 2016 Was it borrowed ( and attributed ) or original ? Has it been peer reviewed ? Did it make up a part of the proceedings as a credited ' paper '? As it should have if it was a paper. I do hope they publish it on the NZTR site so the racing world can see it and the racing scientists can scrutinize it. I hope they post the "papers" allegedly presented at the Hong Kong ARC the year before too, when they took twenty attendees up. So many great papers, so much original work, and it's not being shared with the people who paid for it and who're most effected by it. Curious indeed.

biff 2,158 Report post Posted February 21, 2016 They are headings and sub headings, WTF, that's not a paper, how on earth is this allowed to continue.......not a keynote speaker, and rightly so, NZ has no cred in the global sense anyway, the joke is a long running chain, the only thing transparent here is the lack of accountability anyone has at Petone. It's a headless corpse, the Taj Mahal in Jackson St, on another thread I mentioned the Foxton trials videos, still nada on the Monday at nearly midday, and that's disgusting. The CEO is where the buck stops, but he probably has no idea of videos and the time frame. Racecafe is read in dark places, we all know Glenda reads it.......eh Glenda? and you wonder why there is massive leakage, it's not illegal gambling either, it's disenchantment and disappointment at our domestic situation. Where's the leadership? is there even a leader? John Allen, be ashamed boy, be very ashamed. Ashoka 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not a presentation quality 'paper', it's just an introduction stating the obvious. Please have a look throughout the remainder of the documented history, there must be a 'paper' there somewhere. Can I ask though why everyone thinks there's been a claim that anyone presented a paper anyway, who said it and when ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding (ie I didnt hear this bit of radio) is that 3-4 weeks ago Mr Purcell told Peter Early he had presented a paper at the conference. The following week which I did hear Early asked him for details. Purcell then started dancing around the issue a bit and saying he had chaired a session and made the opening remarks.

The following week which I did hear Early asked him for details. Purcell then started dancing around the issue a bit and saying he had chaired a session and made the opening remarks. OK lets be even handed. A few years ago Michael Stiassny per Korda Mentha presented a cut and paste report to the NZRB about 17 pages in large print containing material a 15 year old doing a project would probably get a fail because educators have software that recognizes plagarised content. The recommendation mainly was an encouragement to close Avondale. The cost to NZRB almost $100,000 Interestingly the way Korda Mentha operates can be demonstrated in this piece of greed. As liquidators they are bound to freeze assets and prevent frauds continuing. Instead they continued to receive deposits as liquidators and now want those deposits to be used for their own fees rather than just return the deposits. Thankfully the judge ruled against Korda Mentha. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=11593521 Ashoka 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
