The Man Who Could Not Say Sorry For His Sins
Sorry would be a start.Though you cant take back your mistakes, and you cant come undone time, you'd think there would be remorse, for such a self allocation crime, to send others out to die, to pay the blood price you have decreed, when its chastely bluster and posing, all about arrogance and greed, to assured a perceived niche in history, glowing down the years, is the boundary of your ambition, is the puny limit of your fears, when those you have sent to die, believing implicitly in you, leave relatives after who see, that nobody you said was true, there is no belief now for those, whose come to you dont count, they are yesterdays forgotten, though daily they still mount, no accepted wisdom of resignation, no admission of guilt to those left behind, just forward with the ego, fast ahead from those times, as if nil ever happened, as if your lies are quite ok, as if now is what to focus on, and then was a different day, lost back in the mists of time, obscured by clouds half seen, not an cause offense to the living, not impeachable and obscene, you may want to move on now, and close the eyes to your past infamy, but you ought to be tried for treason, and captive for blasphemy.

Two Poems: Boyhood, and Old Age [with a note on style]
BoyhoodOh me! Thy glorious days have flown! I mealy noticed, now they're gone, How briefly approved the flowers! Time does not stop youth's bells; It was like I was in a spell, And my face now shows the hours!Ah yes! My childlike past days, Still lively in my blonde age, When all was quick and new Now wrapped in films and books, And links and children were all I knew And love was shown by forthcoming looks!#741 6/26/05Old AgeThey stop by to see me now To find what's old and new, They peer into my-everything, And appraise my views; They tell me what I ought to like, And that I must be grieved-These are my fragile links That takes the strongest liberties?I mean to take the signal off; And put the phone exterior the door; In vain I speak to tell them why -I shan't live here anymore!#742 6/26/05A note on Style: some associates ask, "What style of poetry to you like the best?" I can never counter that question; it is open-ended to me. If I feel like infringement free from tradition as in the poem of: "Old Age," so be it; and if I feel conventional verse, a stricter ceremonial arrangement must be used, as in "Boyhood," and can be a factor completely to the poem, so it is.
Two Poems: San Jeronimo Brook & [in English and Spanish]
Fair Andes! Thy arms reach highOf iron-woven solid stone Thu art a condor to the skyOf glory buried in thy heartSo many paths, a maze of art?In thy old, Mantaro ValleyWhere adobes, breathe and tremble Beyond your pastoral shadowsThere lays the prettiest of brooksIs my heart, surrounded by its stream!My image genuinely carved, rippledIn its full strength shallow watersWaiting, just coming up for me?As it opens up, opens up my soulMy rippled soul-searching-eyes!..

"Be Calm! These times will be tolerant to you.
In Poetry: Denotation of Words [And ...Rocket-belt]
In Poetry: Consequence of WordsWhen I write poetry, I check out the denotation of words for too often they sound the same, but once written, and if spelled wrong, in consequence, give a absolute another connotation of what I had intended; this I call a instant of dent control. If my rhyme is flat, and my inflection is off, so what, I can survive, as long as the consequence of my words are not; and are as I meant them to be.
now is not the time to open open that great door again not the time to be more tolerant not the time to play to winnow is not the time for justice evolution mercy choices not the time to pet the puppies yipping with pathetic voicesnow is not the time for kindness not the time for compromise not the time for loving blindness not the time to close my eyesnow for one too many people not that i have gained no good heart has sown but flesh is reaping tears to mind and done in bloodnow my inner wolf seeks equals only those whose chords can howl deadly whether lone or social defending young or on the prowltell me not that you would die upon the spines of my displeasure live for me and for you will i cherish each cell as if a treasureput me not contained by a cage but roam with me by means of snow and sun be by my side or breathe my dust for i shall bleed again for noneNiki Lasher Artist, Writer, and Webmatron http://www.kthulah.

Robert Burns Love Poem: A Red, Red Rose
Robert Burns, a poor man, an educated man, and a ladies' man, is ambassador of Scotland, much like whisky, haggis, bagpipes, and kilts. He lived a life shortened by aching heart disease, 1759-1796, but his life journey by means of poverty, informal education, disappointed love, nationalism, and literary and economic hit can be identified by all Scots and communal men the world over.

Therefore, the QAL 991 is particularly suited to monitoring emissions from waste incineration and power plants. Sites which are regulated under the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED).
QAL 991 is designed to meet and exceed CEN standard EN 14181 / EN 13284-2. The instrument holds QAL1 approval specified in EN 15267-3, under both MCERTS and TUV.
The sensor measures the current signature created by particles interacting with the sensing rod which protrudes into the stack. The technology outperforms conventional DC triboelectric systems and alternative AC systems. It extends the velocity range over which the instrument has no cross sensitivity to changing velocity.
- The robust design of QAL991 is unaffected by build-up on the sensor rod which eliminates signal drift.
- Automatic recording of drift checks (zero and span) to satisfy QAL3 requirements
- Complies with standards EN 13284-2, EN 14181 and EN 15267-3 and applications with Emission Limit Values (ELVs) of 7.5 mg/m³ (Incineration) and 15 mg/m³ (co-incineration)
- The internal Quality Assurance features of the instrument have been designed and approved to meet the QAL3 and AST requirements of EN14181.
- Icon driven, interface screens feature alarms, graphical trends, data logging, 4-20mA output
- PLUS control unit option for sensor networking (up to 16 sensor channels) via industry standard Modbus, multiple inputs for external devices (e.g. for Temp and O2 normalisation)
The QAL 991 supersedes the DT991, an instrument that’s proven in the most demanding CEM applications.

And a sexist, and probably a homophobe, too.
But it’s okay, so am I.
In fact, research shows that almost everyone shows signs of prejudiced attitudes. The Implicit Association Test, a psychological test designed to measure the strength of subconscious associations that people have, suggests that even people who openly profess not to be racist or sexist actually are, deep down.
When you take an IAT, you use a computer program to categorize words into two different categories, usually by pressing one of two keys as quickly as possible. For instance, the categories might be “Black” and “White,” and the words you have to categorize might be either pleasant or unpleasant in nature–such as “safe” and “unsafe.” In one round, you’ll be asked to categorize the pleasant words as “black” and the unpleasant words as “white,” and in the next round you’ll do it the other way around. (It’s actually a bit more complicated than that, but you get the idea.)
The software measures how long it takes you to press the right key to categorize each word, and research shows that people are quicker to categorize unpleasant words as “black” rather than “white.”
IATs are extremely valuable tools for psychological research. They’ve been used to study stereotypes and prejudice in all sorts of categories, including race, gender, weight, and others. The IAT seems to be difficult (if not impossible) to fake or “game” in any way. You can try it here.
There’s other evidence aside from the IAT that suggests that prejudice is shockingly common and deeply ingrained. You know that racist trope about not being able to tell people of another race apart? Well, apparently, that begins at the age of nine months. A recent study shows that while five-month-old babies could still distinguish faces just as well whether they belonged to their own race or to another, by nine months, they had become much better at distinguishing faces of their own race.
I don’t know if effects like these are caused by nature, nurture, or a mix of both (probably the latter). There’s evidence that prejudice is taught to us by society, but there’s also evidence that it’s an inborn trait that we evolved in order to distinguish friends from foes.
However, even if prejudice is completely biological (which I doubt), it doesn’t really matter. In addition to our tendency to sort people into groups, we’ve also evolved brains that can override our basic instincts. We are capable of going on hunger strikes for a cause, resisting the urge to have sex with someone we find attractive, overcome phobias of heights, snakes, and elevators, and ignore our natural revulsion for blood and disease and become doctors.
There’s no reason, then, that we should not also be capable of unlearning prejudice.
Research like this is why I think that we should take some of the stigma away from words like “racist” and “sexist.” Most people don’t want to be branded as bigots, even if they knowingly hold some attitudes that are bigoted. So the response that most people will make when accused of racism or sexism is “WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT OF COURSE I’M NOT A RACIST/SEXIST SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE BLACK/WOMEN.” The response should really be, “Wow, I guess I haven’t really worked on getting rid of my prejudice.” After all, prejudice is something we all have at least a little bit of.
We should acknowledge that fact rather than pretending otherwise. Even people who write constantly about bigotry and how to end it–such as me–hold subconscious (or even conscious) bigoted attitudes. The difference between people who care about social justice and those who don’t is not that we’re not bigoted at all and they are; it’s that we consciously work on correcting our bigoted views and they do not.
For instance, when I’m walking down the street at night and I see a black man and I involuntarily get scared, I force myself to ask why. And whenever I ask myself that, the answer is always that I’m scared because I’ve been taught to be scared, not because there’s anything to be scared of. And I don’t cross the street to the other side.
So when you realize that your mental image of a scientist is always a man, or that you feel disgusted when you see a fat person on the bus, or that seeing a man holding another man’s hand or wearing a dress (or both!) makes you uncomfortable, don’t just let that feeling be. Don’t assume that your feelings are always true. Question them, and you might be surprised at what you find.
We are all bigots in some ways. But some of us are more bigoted than others.

Email Administrator's Guide
This document provides Email Administrators with an overview of how Death2Spam works, and ways to configure your domain's email delivery settings for optimal results. It should be used as a reference during new customer registrations, for help with the configuration of Death2Spam, and as a resource for trouble-shooting and general system administration. Topics included are:
How Death2Spam Works
Death2Spam is anti-spam filtering software deployed as a managed (hosted) service, outside of your organization's internal network. It is designed to rapidly filter the incoming email traffic for your entire domain.
To use Death2Spam's interception service, your domain's email traffic will be directed to a Death2Spam server for filtering. Once an email has been received by Death2Spam, it is classified, and any spam and malware is quarantined. Legitimate (good) email is then relayed on to your mail server.
How email gets to your domain:
The following diagram shows how email messages currently flow into your domain's mail server. First, a Mail Exchanger (MX) lookup query is performed by the sender, against a Domain Name Server (DNS). The MX information tells the message's sender which IP (Internet Protocol) address is your domain's mail host.
After the email has been sent to your host server using Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), it's then available for retrieval via POP3, IMAP or MAPI (various electronic mail download protocols). Users poll the mail server, and download new messages to their desktop email program.
How D2S captures junk mail and malware:
The D2S Configuration Wizard configures a Death2Spam server so that it's able to relay legitimate email messages to your domain, after scanning for viruses and spam. The following diagram shows how D2S is transparently inserted into the SMTP chain, capturing the junk messages, then forwarding the good ones on to your domain's mail server.
Instead of a "one size fits all" solution, your email users are able to teach the D2S message classifier about their individual preferences, via a simple and intuitive web interface. Well-trained accounts typically obtain better than 99.5% spam-filtration accuracy, with less than 0.05% false positives (legitimate email mis-classified as spam).

The 2nd development project for Korean rocket (projectile) will start in August. 2nd level targets developing a 75-ton liquid engine, which is the the main technology for Korean rocket, and thus will be investing 732 million USD until 2018. Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning (MSIP) plans to finish the 1st level development and evaluate by upcoming July and start the 2nd level development in August.
The project goal is to develop a 75-ton liquid engine and successful launch test according to it. The Korean rocket will have 1st level engine that has four 75-ton liquid engines tied together, 2nd level engine with one 75-ton liquid engine, and 3rd level with 7-ton liquid engine. The 75-ton engine that used in 1st and 2nd level is the most important factor for deciding the success in developing Korean rocket. MSIP will complete the rocket and engine detailed structuring via 75-ton liquid engine developmental testing and ground firing test.

“I’ve been using Mac laptops for a long time, going back to the very first portable Apple ever made, so I was really excited when Apple sent me a new MacBook Pro to test and review,” Craig A. Hunter blogs via Hunter Research & Technology. “This 15” space gray MacBook Pro looks just like the 2016 model I purchased about 18 months ago, but on the inside, it has some big changes. My test unit came equipped with a 2.9 GHz Intel i9 processor with 6-cores (a Core i9-8950HK to be specific, part of Intel’s Coffee Lake family), 32 GB of 2400 MHz DDR4 memory, an AMD Radeon Pro 560X discrete GPU with 4096 MB (low power graphics are handled by an Intel UHD 630 integrated GPU with 1536 MB), and a 4TB SSD. The 2.9 GHz CPU can turbo boost to 3.6 GHz, and if that’s not enough for you, it can also “thermal velocity boost” to as high as 4.8 GHz, load and temperature permitting.”
“The display on the new MacBook Pro is a 15.4” Retina display with 2880×1800 resolution, just like my old model, but the new MacBook Pro has a True Tone adaptive display (controlled by a new Apple T2 chip, which also handles chores like encrypted storage and booting, Hey Siri, and all the duties of the old T1 chip),” Hunter writes. “The difference is quite stunning and may be reason enough to upgrade to this new model.”
“There is a lot to like about the 2018 MacBook Pro. It has made great strides in performance and runs alongside the iMac Pro for the single-core and 2- to 5-core computations I benchmarked in this review,” Hunter writes. “The increase in memory to 32GB makes it a truly viable machine for my CFD [computational fluid dynamics] workflows. The keyboard is more precise and quieter, and the new True Tone display is a standout feature that my eyes appreciated every time I looked at it. Overall this 2018 model is a very solid evolution, with improvements that emphasize the ‘Pro’ in MacBook Pro.
Much more, including benchmark results, in the full review here.
MacDailyNews Take: Sound like a beast of a notebook – the fastest and most-advanced Mac notebooks ever – and the keyboard is sounding like it’s noticeably more precise (and quieter) than previous iterations. Coupled with the ability to spec the 15-inch model out to ridiculous levels and Apple’s got another winner!

Knife-wielding man shot after approaching Tucson police officers at Fort Lowell Park
A man was shot by a Tucson police officer after authorities say he approached officers at a park holding a knife and ignored their commands to drop it Wednesday afternoon, the Arizona Daily Star reported.
The man, said to be in his 30s, was taken to a hospital with serious injuries, according to Sgt. Pete Dugan, a department spokesman.
Just after 11 a.m., police were at Fort Lowell Park, near North Craycroft Road and East Glenn Street, after finishing an unrelated call nearby.
While at the park, officers made contact with a woman. While speaking with her, a man approached the officers. Dugan said the man and woman are associated, but their relationship is currently unknown.
The man was armed with a knife and began making suicidal statements, Dugan said. As he approached the officers, “multiple commands were given” for the man to drop the knife. However, the man did not drop the knife, Dugan said.
“He continued to advance at the officers,” Dugan said. One of the officers discharged his firearm, striking the man. Dugan said it's unknown why he approached the officers.
Officers began rendering aid until Tucson Fire Department could take over. He was taken to the hospital with serious injuries, Dugan said.
No officers were injured.
Anyone with further information should call 911 or 88-CRIME, the anonymous tipster line.
This an ongoing investigation. The story will be updated.

Our Speaker and Topic – “The Battle of Pilot Knob, Missouri”
The battle of Pilot Knob, Missouri, September 27th, 1864, is known as the Thermopylae of the West, is more than a single event.
Replete with the desperate raid of Sterling Price’s three divisions to take St. Louis, restore the Confederate government in Missouri, stage an invasion of Kansas to relieve arms and supplies from Fort Leavenworth, and, supposedly, to redirect attention away from Lee’s occupied army in Richmond with a counterpoint of General Rosecrans last minute dispatch of a small contingent of the 14th Iowa and the 47th Missouri Infantry under the command of the most hated Kansan, General Thomas Ewing to occupy and stall the raiders at Fort Davidson, near Pilot Knob, Missouri – the drama becoming personal, brutal and surprising.
Our speaker this month is Howard Mann. He is a member of the Nashville, Tennessee Civil War Round Table; formerly President of the Kansas City Civil War Roundtable and a member of the Harrisburg, PA, Civil War Roundtable. Howard has written articles and blogs on the Civil War in the Trans-Mississippi and his great-grandfather’s regiment, the 10th Kansas Infantry and Lane’s Kansas Brigade. He authored an unpublished manuscript on Lane’s Kansas Brigade.
Please join us for the this month’s program of the Clarksville CWRT. Let’s have a great turn out

An article titled "Abundance-based fish, game management can benefit all" by Corey Rossi of the Alaska Department of Fish & Game provides an articulate explanation of ADF&G's current approach to conservation, and the emphasis of abundant big game harvests. But if conservation means looking at both sides of the equation (utilization vs. preservation), then some factors may be missing with respect to wildlife.
While abundance of wildlife is certainly one of the fundamental goals of conservation, so is diversity. The article never mentions diversity. Abundance at the sacrifice of diversity is the essence of modern agriculture, but not ecology. The article quotes ecologist Aldo Leopold, calling him "one of the founders of modern wildlife management." He was also an early advocate for protecting diversity stating, "to keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering."
In addition, Leopold was a strong proponent of wilderness "to preserve the integrity, stability and beauty of the biotic community." In fact, he was a founder of The Wilderness Society. Although Leopold saw parallels between agriculture and game management, he was more a preservationist than a utilitarian.
The utilitarian approach is better attributed to forester Gifford Pinchot, also mentioned in the article. Pinchot, another icon of conservation, fought the timber industry's wholesale destruction of forests, but strongly advocated the planned use and renewal of forest resources. He opposed preservation for the sake of wilderness or scenery. He would prefer an orderly tree farm that lacked diversity but had the maximum yield of a desirable forest product to a messy wilderness forest that had more diversity but less crop.
This replay of history may seem trivial, but the lessons one professes to learn from history reveals one's ideological gyroscope. It reveals not only orientation, but where one's fulcrum is with respect to balance. Applied to conservation, it reveals whether one is likely to weigh in favor of either the utilitarian or preservationist's side, or give more equal weighting, requiring that the fulcrum be close to the middle.
ADF&G's approach is clearly utilitarian. Rossi writes, "Abundance-based management ... requires man to work with the land to produce the maximum sustainable yield." But leaving out diversity and wilderness values to achieve this does not equate to "the maximum benefit of Alaska's people." Many Alaskans put more value on having wildlife diversity and wilderness than an intensively managed abundance of big game. Rossi says "abundance-based fish and game management benefits all user groups." But if that were true, a strong voice of consensus would speak for itself. Given Alaska's ongoing debates between consumptive and nonconsumptive users of wildlife, this obviously is not the case.
Another shortcoming of ADF&G's abundance-based intensive management concept is that it applies only to big game. Game birds and furbearers are, for the most part, not being managed for abundance, or even local existence. The Kachemak Bay Conservation Society (KBCS) has commented on several proposals for the Board of Game (BOG) spring meeting regarding local depletion or extirpation of game birds and furbearers on the Kenai Peninsula.
"The Division of Wildlife Conservation needs to have the wherewithal to micromanage these species. It needs information and authority comparable to the management of Alaska's fisheries," according to KBCS.
To assure both consumptive and nonconsumptive users an opportunity to locally harvest and/or view these species, KBCS has recommended that the BOG establish a stakeholder advisory committee to draft a conservation plan for Kenai Peninsula game birds and furbearers. The committee should review scientific and anecdotal information to validate if Kenai Peninsula game birds and furbearers have any localized areas of depletion. If so, it would recommend intensive management strategies to either restore or reintroduce those species.
One valid criticism of our recommendation is lack of funding. But there are options. Since most cruise ship travelers come to Alaska to see wildlife, it makes sense to apply a small percentage of the $50 head tax they pay to fund implementation of this conservation plan.
To summarize, KBCS thinks that ADF&G's concept would be more balanced and widely accepted if it recognized diversity and wilderness values and included game birds and furbearers.

Jay-Z On Blue Ivy: "She's My Biggest Fan"
Hov tells Vanity Fair mag that she prefers his music to mum, Beyoncé's...
Wednesday, October 2, 2013 - 09:11
Jay-Zhas revealed that his daughter Blue Ivy is his "biggest fan".
During an interview with Vanity Fair magazine, the rapper claims that Blue prefers his tunes to that of his wife Beyoncé - adding that she particularly likes listening to his latest album, Magna Carta Holy Grail.
Jigga told the publication: "She does like her mother's music - she watches [her concerts] on the computer every night.
"But my album came out and I don't know if Blue ever heard any of my music prior to this album - she's only 18 months old and I don't play my music around the house. But this album was new, so we played it. And she loves all the songs."
He continued: "She plays a song and she goes, 'More, Daddy, more... Daddy song'. She's my biggest fan."
The Holy Grail hitmaker went on to add that he's more than happy to have won over Blue Ivy with his new material, stating: "If no one bought the Magna Carta [album], the fact that she loves it so much, it gives me the greatest joy.

"And that's not like a cliché. I'm really serious. Just to see her - 'Daddy song, more, Daddy'. She's genuine, she's honest, because she doesn't know it makes me happy. She just wants to hear it."
He also explained the decision behind wanting to trademark Blue Ivy's name, claiming: "People wanted to make products based on our child's name, and you don't want anybody trying to benefit off your baby's name. It wasn't for us to do anything - as you see, we haven't done anything."
In the same interview, Jay revealed that Queen B is now "gangsta" after hooking-up with him.

Smith’s first career overtime goal in the Stanley Cup Playoffs gives the top-seeded Golden Knights a 2-0 lead against the No. 8 Blackhawks in the best-of-7 series.

Game 3 is in Edmonton, the Western Conference hub city, on Saturday (8 p.m. ET; NBC, CBC, SN).
Paul Stastny, Tomas Nosek and Mark Stone also scored, Jonathan Marchessault had two assists, and Robin Lehner made 22 saves for the Golden Knights. Vegas was without forward Max Pacioretty (unfit to play).

The fashion retailer has identified six new markets that could help it deliver explosive growth over the next five years.
Managing director for marketing, operations and international Carl McPhail confirmed that the roll-out will cover two more countries in Western Europe, as well as a push into emerging markets. The retailer has a presence in France, Belgium and the Middle East already.
As Retail Week went to press, New Look's directors were locked in a meeting to finalise plans, following the completion of an international strategy review by Ernst & Young.
McPhail is also in talks with five potential franchise partners in other locations and New Look is in a position to act quickly as soon as terms are agreed.
New Look had hoped that its international growth story would entice bidders to stump up as much as£2 billion to buy the chain, which was put up for sale in March. However, the auction collapsed earlier this week when New Look's private equity owners Apax and Permira were unable to agree a price with bidders. The failed sale came amid concerns about UK consumer confidence and the US debt market.
Management are now mulling whether to pursue a refinancing but the status quo may be maintained, according to a source close to the retailer.
New Look is likely to target the Benelux region as part of its European roll-out, given its close proximity to Belgium and France, where it has 11 eponymous stores. The retailer also has 242 Mim shops in France.
McPhail declined to reveal locations. However, he said: 'In Europe we will leverage the platform we have already got for France and Belgium, where our stores are profit-positive within 15 to 18 months. But the European roll-out will not negate our plans for emerging markets.'
New Look is expected to pursue a franchise model in emerging markets. Its target list is likely to include China and India, where New Look founder Tom Singh has extensive connections.
The Middle East also remains a key focus for expansion. The retailer signed a five-year franchise agreement with Landmark earlier this year and has plans to open 40 stores there.
New Look has the potential to ultimately replicate the global scale of rivals H&M and Inditex, which have 1,345 and 3,245 stores worldwide respectively.
Separately, New Look has finalised an autumn launch for its transactional web site. Strategy director Shaun Wills said that his aim was for web sales to match sales at its Oxford Street flagship in the first year.
He added: 'Verdict is forecasting internet sales will hit 9 per cent of retail turnover over the next six years. We don't expect that, but half that would be very serious numbers for us.'
The site will launch with a limited number of styles, but all stock - including menswear and childrenswear - will be online by the end of the second quarter.
E-In Business will be New Look's platform provider.

Whenever snacktime comes around, I’m always stuck in a sweet/salty dilemma. For example, a simple chips vs. chocolate decision will have me staring at the cupboard for 3o minutes. And don’t get me started on the inner debate between candy and popcorn at the movie theater. The agony.
But now the snack struggle is over. That’s because I put all my favorite sweet and salty treats in a creamy, Nutella fudge-swirled milkshake. Or as I also like to call it, a SNACKSHAKE.
That’s right. I’m talking pretzels, Cracker Jacks and potato chips. But those are just the toppings. To start, you’ll need to the makings for a great milkshake – just whole milk and vanilla ice cream. I used AE Dairy‘s Whole Milk instead of lighter milk to achieve a thicker shake. (Plus, each serving of AE Dairy’s Whole Milk provides eight grams of natural protein so there’s an added health benefit.)
Before blending the ice cream and milk, I added a handful of pretzels, then blended it all together until the mixture was smooth and the pretzel bits were small. It might seem like a minor detail, but the pretzels make all the difference in the taste and texture of the shake. It adds just the right amount of crunch and salt to coincide with the ice cream.
During recipe testing I considered sticking with the pretzel milkshake. But something felt like it was missing…you know, that decadence factor. That’s when it hit me. Nutella! Swirls of it. Rich like hot fudge, but better (obviously) because NUTELLA!
Making it is simple: just whisk together Nutella, AE Heavy Whipping Cream, corn syrup and vanilla. When you’re ready to serve, drop in alternating layers of the shake and spoonfuls of Nutella fudge in a glass. Then, take a spoon and stir to distribute “swirls” of nutella fudge throughout the shake.
Presentation is everything here. So toss on those Cracker Jacks like calories don’t count! For the rim, roll the edge of the cup in Nutella fudge and then roll it in crushed potato chips.
Pro tip: this snackshake is not one for sipping. So ditch the straw and go straight for a spoon (or a shovel).
- 1.5 quart vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup salted pretzels (set a few aside for topping)
- 1 cup Cracker Jacks
- 1 cup crushed potato chips
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 1 drop vanilla extract
- For the shake: in a blender, combine ice cream, whole milk and pretzels until smooth.
- For the Nutella Fudge: whisk together Nutella, cream, corn syrup and vanilla in a bowl until combined.
- Serve the shake in cup, alternating layers of ice cream and Nutella fudge. Take a spoon and stir the shake to create swirls of fudge throughout.
- Top with Cracker Jacks, potato chips and pretzels.
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of AE Dairy. The opinions and text are all mine.

National Competition Policy (NCP) implemented in Australia from 1995 has had a profound effect on the mode and level of service delivery in nonmetropolitan regional and rural areas. The implementation of NCP followed the lead of other countries in corporatising, segmenting, and privatising many state and national government services and utilities and promoting open global competition as the framework for service delivery in the future. As government moves out of the role of service provision and into the role of industry regulation, there has been significant jurisdiction shifting in terms of responsibility for services, as well as reduced subsidisation for the cost of service over distance: subsidisation that was previously enabled through government-owned nationwide monopolies. This is more of an issue in Australia than in many other countries due to the large landmass and relatively small but dispersed population. Unlike many other countries, however, Australia has been slow to increase the proportion of overall tax revenue given to local government bodies to ensure regional service delivery or to impose community service obligations (CSOs) at local levels. Confused local bodies have been left to build expensive business plans to attract new services in areas for which they currently have little or no funding, and in which they previously had no responsibility or expertise. Local bodies are currently being requested to aggregate demand across government, private, and residential customer bases. Management of the delivery of broadband services is an example of the confusion faced by regional bodies in Australia in the wake of a recently corporatised government utility and a liberalised telecommunications environment.

FDA Validator Rules are a set of technical criteria and guidelines applied by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) during the review process of regulatory submissions. These rules are designed to validate the integrity, quality, and consistency of the submitted study data, ensuring that it meets the agency's standards for effective analysis and review.
FDA Study Data Validator Rules serve several critical functions in the regulatory submission and review process.
Data Quality Assurance
One of the primary reasons for the existence of Validator Rules is to ensure the quality and integrity of the submitted data. These rules perform various checks to validate that the data is accurate, complete, and consistent, thereby making it reliable for regulatory review.
Efficient and Effective Electronic Submission Review Process
Validator Rules are designed to streamline the FDA's review process. By ensuring that the submitted data meets specific quality standards, the FDA can more efficiently analyze the data, leading to quicker decision-making. This is particularly important given the high stakes involved in drug approvals and other regulatory decisions that impact public health.
Poor quality or inconsistent data can lead to incorrect interpretations and potentially flawed regulatory decisions. Validator Rules act as a safeguard against such risks by setting the standards for data quality right at the beginning of the review process.
As the FDA increasingly relies on advanced data analytics and machine learning algorithms for its review processes, the Validator Rules ensure that the submitted data is compatible with these technologies. This compatibility is crucial for leveraging technological advancements in regulatory reviews.
Transparency and Accountability
The Validator Rules provide a transparent framework for data submission, making it clear what is expected from organizations. This transparency aids in accountability, as non-compliance can be easily identified and addressed.
Many of the Validator Rules align with international standards, facilitating the global harmonization of regulatory submissions. This is particularly beneficial for organizations that operate in multiple jurisdictions.
Where to Find FDA Study Data Validator Rules
The FDA Study Data Validator Rules are outlined in various documents that provide detailed guidelines and specifications for ensuring the quality and integrity of submitted study data. These documents are essential for understanding the technical requirements for regulatory submissions.
Technical Conformance Guide
Study Data Technical Conformance Guide: This guide provides technical specifications and recommendations for submitting study data in a standardized format. It often includes sections that describe validation procedures and rules.
FDA Business and Study Data Validation Rules Document
FDA Guidance Documents
Various FDA guidance documents related to electronic submissions may contain information on Validator Rules. These documents are designed to help industry professionals understand the regulatory expectations for data quality and integrity.
Data Standards Catalog
The FDA's Data Standards Catalog often references the Validator Rules applicable to different types of submissions, providing a roadmap for compliance.
Regulatory Notices and Updates
The FDA frequently releases notices and updates that may introduce new Validator Rules or amendments to existing ones. Staying updated with these releases is crucial for compliance.
It's advisable to consult these resources regularly, as the FDA Validator Rules can be updated or amended to reflect changes in regulatory requirements or technological advancements.
FDA Validator Rules are a set of technical guidelines applied during the regulatory review process to ensure the quality, integrity, and consistency of submitted study data. These rules perform various data quality checks, generate errors and warnings for non-compliance, and validate the data structure against accepted standards. They are crucial for facilitating an efficient review process and are mandatory for regulatory approval. Adherence to these rules not only ensures that the data meets the FDA's stringent standards but also mitigates the risk of delays or rejections in the regulatory pathway.

The Geometry of Humanism: The Search for Universal Standards in the Early Thought of Kang Youwei
Dr Sean Moores, The University of Sydney
4:30 – 6:00pm, Monday 24 October 2016
SLC Common Room 536, Brennan MacCallum Building A18, Unversity of Sydney
One of the most important thinkers of China’s Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Kang Youwei (1858-1927) is mostly remembered for his ill-fated attempts at institutional reform, and for the apparently iconoclastic nature of his most famous text, the Book of Great Unity (1902). However, his writings are of great philosophical interest. While entirely consistent with the internal logic of Confucianism, they are replete with profound challenges to both the China of his day and the non-Chinese world. This seminar will look at a text of Kang’s dating from the mid-1880s, the Complete Book of True Principles and Universal Precepts, undoubtedly a precursor of the Book of Great Unity. Consciously deconstructing the then-dominant ethical legacy of Song and Ming Neo-Confucianism, the text seeks to strip ethical standards down to a core of what Kang considers to be objectively-justifiable principles. These principles are then used as the basis for appraising a series of real or hypothetical laws or precepts, understood as being applicable not only to China. The result is an assortment of strikingly stimulating ethical positions and recommendations. It is suggested, for example, that the State should be responsible for the upbringing of children, recompensing on their behalf, and in advance, their parents; and renewable three-month marriage contracts are presented as a realistic alternative to life-long commitments. This seminar will look at how Kang develops his analysis of such precepts, and how it informs the philosophy of the Book of Great Unity nearly thirty years later. It will also reflect upon how this approach can potentially challenge philosophical and ethical standards developed in non-Chinese realities.
Dr Sean Moores is lecturer in Chinese and East Asian Thought at the University of Sydney. He obtained a doctorate in Chinese Studies in 2010, at the National Institute of Oriental Languages and Civilizations (INALCO), Paris, France, with a dissertation on the early thought of the nineteenth-century Chinese philosopher Kang Youwei (1858-1927). Having specialized in the history of Chinese philosophy, in particular the history of Confucian thought, Dr Moores’ current research concentrates on the internal logic of Kang Youwei’s philosophy as an alternative perspective of Confucian attitudes towards the question of modernity. He is currently preparing an annotated bilingual (Chinese-French) edition of some of Kang’s earliest writings, The Inner and Outer Essays of Master Kang.
