Innovation Awards 2020
Finalists Announced
EDGE 2020 Goes Virtual

NORTH SYDNEY, June 30th, 2006 - IDC has recently released the results for the Australia total PC monitor market in Q1 2006. Findings revealed that the Australian PC monitor market grew 12% sequentially and increased 11% from the same period in 2005. The branded market contributed greatly to the overall strong performance, posting a robust growth of 21% from the preceding quarter, while the OEM market increased 2% sequentially.

IDC key highlights for the Q1 2006 PC monitor market:

1) Strong Demand from Education and Government Sectors: The increase in demand from the education and government sectors was responsible for keeping the PC monitor market very buoyant throughout the quarter. Several branded vendors won and fulfilled some small-sized PC monitor tenders. This boosted their overall performance in 1Q06. On the OEM front, there were some notable PC desktop tenders during the quarter that also had PC monitor portions, benefiting mainly the Tier 1 PC desktop players. While education sales have tapered off, government spending is expected to peak in the next quarter, as both state and federal government departments strive to complete their purchases before the end of the financial year

2) Aggressive LCD Pricing: In a highly mature market lacking technological advancements and with limited ways to differentiate PC monitor offerings, vendors have had little choice but to pursue highly aggressive pricing strategies in order to meet sales targets. In 1Q06, all LCD size categories experienced a decline in average selling price with the minimum sequential decline being 6%, making LCD monitors more affordable and thereby more enticing to end users. On the panel front, the increased panel production capacity will continue to bring prices down and enable vendors to continue to pass on the cost savings to the consumer.

3) Large Sizes and Widescreen is Growing Popular: Larger sized LCD monitors have continued to gain traction in 1Q06, with vendors pursuing this market more aggressively, for mainly the higher margins. From the end user standpoint, larger sizes tend to be welcomed in the home, particularly for gaming or video/image applications. Large LCD monitors are also gaining popularity within the corporate space too. Widescreen is an additional feature that is gaining traction in the Australian PC monitor market, being offered by both branded and OEM vendors alike. It is expected that widescreen will continue to be an important feature moving forward as long as prices remain competitive when compared to the normal 4:3 aspect ratio equivalent.

Mercie Clement, Market Analyst, PC Hardware said, "Samsung finished the quarter in the top position with 19.1% share while LG Electronics maintained its second position in the Australian branded monitor market with 15.4% share. Meanwhile, BenQ climbed up to third place, with 14.8% share of the total branded monitor market and Acer finished in the fourth place with 11.7% share. Rounding out the top 5 was Mitsubishi with 10.8% share."

Top five vendors (branded market):

# Samsung 19.1%
# LG Electronic 15.4%
# BenQ 14.8%
# Acer 11.7%
# Mitsubishi 10.8%
# Others 28.2%

DENVER, Colo. – Jerry Michel used to lift himself into his truck with his arms before he drove out to his field in Atwood. He knew it was hurting his shoulders, but without the use of his legs, it was the only way he got into his truck. He's a truck man.
He doesn't look right behind the wheel of anything else.
Michel was thankful for the chance to work behind a truck for many years: He farmed for a living, despite a car crash that left him paralyzed below the waist. Twenty years ago, when he decided he was going to farm from his wheelchair, he worked with the Colorado AgrAbility Project for the first time. The program, which is a partnership between Goodwill Denver and Colorado State University, helps people with disabilities work and live on a farm.
Years later, in 2016, all that lifting caught up to him, as he knew it would. He needed surgery on both shoulders, and he would need to change how he did things on the farm. He couldn't keep lifting himself up with his upper body, even after he healed from the surgery. It would only be a matter of time before he injured himself again. He still wanted to be a farmer.

The candidates took questions and rebuttals with several audience members participating with questions.
Some of what we learned, Councilman Mike DeFusco is a declared "independent" who is concerned with bonding by the City although he's voted on bonding himself as a councilman of less than two years.
Councilman Ravi Bhalla is planning to unveil a proposal to support arts in Hoboken but local businesswoman Karen Nason is making efforts now bringing art from New York City and wants more while City Council President Jen Giattino wants to see the City support arts for children.
Freeholder Anthony Romano sees the relationship with the County and the City one that requires improvement and says he will value all working relationships in government. Ronald Bautista touts his activism as a credential he be elected mayor and wants improved public safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists.

The Latest Health Perk of Owning a Dog
New research points to benefits of having a pet
Sometimes referred to as "fur babies," pets give many future parents their first crash course in taking care of another living thing. And while an infant is a lot more work (okay, way more!), it turns out that owning a pooch can also benefit the health of your baby in even more ways than previously thought, according to a recent study.
We already knew that living with a pet can help prevent your child from developing allergies, but the latest pet perk is that they can strengthen immune systems during pregnancy. In a study conducted at the University of Alberta in Canada, more than 700 infants and mums were studied over the course of three years. Dogs were the primary pet choice among the families in the study, and researchers concluded that babies with a pup in their home (even just during pregnancy and before birth) had ruminococcus and oscillospira bacteria in their stool.
Why is this a good thing? Well, since those are linked to childhood obesity and allergies, it's key that infants be exposed early on so they can fight these harmful strands as they grow up! Score another win for those wonderful fur babies.

Two people are recovering this morning after a pickup truck smashed into the corner of an apartment building along Interstate 45 north of downtown Houston, according to broadcast reports.
The wreck happened at about 2:30 a.m. Friday at an apartment on Robert E. Lee, according to a report on television station KTRK.
The station quotes Julie Brown, a neighbor of the apartment dwellers.
"They were asleep on the sofa. They are OK. One of them has a swollen hand. It was a very close call. It's amazing that they are alive."
The Associated Press reports that the driver of the truck says someone in another vehicle was chasing him Friday morning along Interstate 45 and he lost control.
The driver has been taken into custody, and the two who were injured were taken to a hospital, KTRK said.
The truck went through an iron fence and over decorative boulders before hitting the building.
Television station KHOU says a brick wall on the first floor of the apartment complex was destroyed.

PG wins landlady's trust, loots Rs 11 lakh
Call centre employee had fled to Kolkata and had switched off her cell phone, but cops traced her from the address submitted in the police verification form
Call centre employee had fled to Kolkata and had switched off her cell phone, but cops traced her from the address submitted in the police verification form
Crime never pays, and 37-year-old call centre employee Purnima Ghosh learnt this lesson the hard way. Ghosh has been arrested from her Kolkata residence on charges of stealing ornaments and cash worth Rs 11 lakh from her landlady.
Purnima Ghosh bonded with her landlady, who was a Bengali like
her, and won her trust before robbing her
Ghosh, who was staying as a paying guest at Surbhi Society at Jankalyan Nagar, allegedly decamped with the booty and fled to Kolkata. She even switched off her cellphone to evade arrest, but like every other criminal she made one mistake that led to her arrest.
Ghosh forgot that she had submitted details of her native address to her landlady Pushpa Roy, on the mandatory police verification form.
For the past five months, Ghosh, an employee of 3G, had been staying with Roy (78) as a paying guest. A colleague of Ghosh, who was a former PG of Roy, had introduced her to the landlady. Being Bengalis, both the ladies bonded instantly.
However, Roy had no idea about Ghosh's dark intentions. Roy treated Ghosh as a family member and the latter was aware of most of the family's secrets. She knew that Roy kept the locker keys under her pillow.
On October 10, when Roy was asleep, Ghosh took the keys from under the pillow and cleaned out the locker. She then placed the keys back under the pillow and took off with the booty to Kolkata.
Unaware of the theft, Roy was shocked to find her valuables missing when she opened the locker the next day. When she went looking for Ghosh, she found her missing. Roy then approached the Malwani police and lodged a complaint.
According to Abdul Rauf Shaikh, senior police inspector of Malwani police station, "Acting on Roy's compliant, we began the probe. During investigation, the victim informed us that Ghosh was like a family member and knew everything about the house, including the location of the locker keys.
Roy also informed us that after the loot, Ghosh had gone missing. When we tried calling Ghosh on her cell phone, it was switched off. This strengthened our suspicion about her involvement in the crime."
After securing her Kolkata address via the police verification form, a team of Malwani police reached Kolkata and arrested Ghosh from her residence in Dum Dum.
"So far, we have recovered Rs 8.3 lakh from her house and are investigating her involvement in similar crimes. Besides, Ghosh isn't cooperating during interrogation and has an accent that is making it difficult for us to understand her," added Shaikh.
Ghosh was presented at a local court and has been remanded in police custody for the next three days.

How do I Treat Sacroiliac Inflammation?
The sacroiliac joints are located in a pair at the base of the spine, where it meets the pelvic bones. The left and right joints work together to bear weight and stabilize the spine during movement. When one or both joints become inflamed, a person is likely to experience chronic lower back pain and a limited range of motion. Doctors can decide how to treat sacroiliac inflammation by identifying the underlying causes and the severity of symptoms. Most people can recover by avoiding strenuous activity and taking anti-inflammatory drugs, though serious cases may necessitate surgery and follow-up physical therapy to regain strength and flexibility.
Inflammation of sacroiliac joint tissue can be caused by a direct injury, overuse, arthritis, or a severe infection. Some women experience symptoms during pregnancy due to increased pressure on the pelvis. In addition, immune system disorders that cause psoriasis and other inflammatory reactions can also lead to sacroiliac joint problems. Symptoms can range from mild to severe, and usually include radiating pain at the site of the joints, fatigue, fever, and a loss of flexibility in the back. A person may also notice itchy, red skin at the base of the spine.
It is important to speak with a doctor at the first sign of back pain so an accurate diagnosis can be made. A physician can diagnose sacroiliac problems by conducting a physical examination, asking about symptoms, and taking x-rays of the joints. It is important for the doctor to investigate the underlying cause, so he or she can properly treat sacroiliac inflammation.
In mild cases where the cause is determined to be an acute injury or overuse of the joints, doctors usually suggest that patients treat sacroiliac inflammation at home. Patients are often instructed to rest their backs and avoid intense physical activity for several days or weeks. Ice packs can be used help to numb the pain and reduce swelling, and applying topical ointments can soothe irritated skin tissue. Many patients take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications to further reduce symptoms. When a person follows his or her doctors orders to treat sacroiliac inflammation, symptoms tend to go away in two to four weeks.
If a patient has arthritis or an underlying immune system problem, he or she may need to take specialized prescription medications to find relief. Corticosteroids and high-strength anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed to reduce pain and help slow the progression of tissue damage. Doctors also inform their patients of exercises they can perform to maintain flexibility in their sacroiliac joints.
Severe cartilage damage and bone defects do not often respond to medications. An orthopedic surgeon may decide to treat sacroiliac inflammation by conducting a procedure to remove or repair damaged tissue. Following surgery, a patient is usually referred to a physical therapy center. Trainers can help the patient engage in specialized stretching and strengthening exercises to recover from surgery and once again enjoy regular activities.

Notes: Sixth ending song for the anime Bleach.
I was playing all my anime songs on shuffle and this song came up. It brings back good memories of Bleach. This was one of the ending songs during the Bount Arc, which in my opinion was a terrible filler season. It kind of ruined the original Bleach. 残念だったね?

State to use EPF to buy rail trail land
NCCC president believes college community backs trail plan
SARANAC LAKE — The state plans to use Environmental Protection Fund money to acquire a section of its proposed Adirondack rail trail that currently is owned by North Country Community College.
In a May 17 letter to village Mayor Clyde Rabideau, state Department of Environmental Conservation Region 5 Director Robert Stegemann said his agency is "contemplating the purchase" of a parcel owned by Essex and Franklin counties and the college.
The 11-acre parcel, located in the North Elba section of the village, is currently assessed at $94,400, according to Essex County records. It straddles the railroad tracks from Brandy Brook Avenue to just past the college's Sparks Athletic Complex.
The state's lack of ownership of this and other parcels of land emerged as an issue last year in a lawsuit filed against the state by the Adirondack Rail Preservation Society. The group, which operates tourist trains under the Adirondack Scenic Railroad name, is suing the state over its plan to remove the railroad tracks between Tupper Lake and Lake Placid, replacing them with the multi-use recreational trail.
Stegemann's letter doesn't specify how much the state would pay for the property, and a DEC spokesman didn't immediately respond to a request for more information, but the director said the state would use EPF money for the purchase.
Under the state's Open Space Plan and EPF process, the village has 90 days from the date the letter was sent to respond with its support or opposition to the use of the EPF to buy the property.
The letter was briefly discussed at a June 26 village board meeting.
"Their question is, do we support it, oppose it or don't care," said Trustee Allie Pelletieri. "If we're pushing the trail thing, then we want to support this. I support it. We don't lose. We get the trail. North Country gets the money to help them along, and we get a (utility) easement."
"I definitely support it," added Trustee Rich Shapiro, who has served as the village's representative to a group advising DEC on planning the rail trail. "The rights of way that go through the college, the one by the gym goes almost to the doors of the gym. It's wide. What the state has agreed with the college and the counties to buy is enough width for the rail trail."
Village Manager John Sweeney said Tuesday that he had sent DEC a letter saying the village isn't opposed to the land purchase but is requesting an easement from the college for a sewer line that runs through the same area.
NCCC President Steve Tyrell told the Enterprise two weeks ago that the college's attorney, Jim Brooks of Lake Placid, was in contact with DEC and was putting together the paperwork for the purchase on behalf of the counties and the college.
"I know there's a lot of activity on it right now," Tyrell said. "I expect we'll see something in the near future.
"I haven't seen anything on what the state would pay the college and the counties for the acquisition of that property," Tyrell added. "It's not going to build a new building for me; let me put it that way."
Tyrell said the property the state would buy is of limited use to the college. His only concern, he said, is making sure the necessary easements are in place for utilities that run through the area.
Beyond that, a recreational trail that runs through the campus could be an asset, Tyrell said.
"I think the members of the campus community, especially the folks who use the athletic facility, see a trail down there as an added recreation opportunity for those who want to enjoy the outdoors," he said.
"The other thing is, people have said — irrespective of what their political position has been on trail, rail or both — I haven't had anybody in the campus community interested in the college maintaining ownership and then being liable for maintenance of the trail," Tyrell added. "The liability has really pointed the college community toward the potential sale. … We're not involved in recreational trail management."

Spring Cleaning for Office and Retail
April 15, 2014
Spring has arrived and it's time for the annual cleanup and everyone, it seems, wants to get in on the action. And why not, it is as good a time as any to clean out the musty smell of winter and usher in the clean, crisp aroma of spring. Here are some cleaning tips to help get you started:
Spring cleaning in the office
Spring cleaning time is a good time to re-arrange your office and clear out some of the clutter. You can start with the filing system. By getting rid of old files that you don't need any more and re-labeling the ones you'd like to keep. While you're at it, give your drawers and file cabinets a thorough cleaning to remove any dust that may have accumulated over the winter and wipe down all the doors and walls.
Your office has endured a lot of traffic since last spring and, no doubt, it shows in your floor's appearance. So, the first order of business is to bring those dull floors back to life. First, remove all the office furniture and go over the floor with a dust mop. Then tape-off any doorways that lead to carpeted areas. You're ready for the stripper.
Air ducts and ventilation systems are another concern. A clogged ventilation system will not perform correctly and that could create a health concern. So, make sure you clean all air vents in your office and change out all the air filters. And, spring cleaning is also a good time to finally get around to washing those grungy windows. Your office will look much more attractive if the windows are clean.
Spring cleaning in retail stores
For pharmacy, grocery and clothing stores, spring cleaning means getting rid of products that have been sitting on the shelves all winter. Many of them have probably exceeded their expiration dates and must go, especially if they are food items.
And, since spring means warmer weather, any clothing that didn't sell over the winter has to be rotated out, or sold at cut-rate prices to get rid of any merchandise that is out of season. The decrease in inventory will also give you the opportunity to take care of other chores like giving that old carpet a thorough deep-cleaning.
But, why put yourself through all the trouble. You're a busy person with other duties to attend to. So why not let the professionals come in and do all your spring cleaning for you. The
Can-Jan team
are experts at cleaning lobbies, offices, showrooms, laboratories and stores. They are also expert at stripping off old wax from floors and re-waxing them. Can-Jan will also deep-clean carpets to remove any particulate matter that can become airborne by foot traffic and will also make your business's windows sparkle.
So, contact Can-Jan

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Papa John's International (NASDAQ: PZZA) has reinforced its commitment to providing a better customer experience with enhancements to its digital ordering process. Today, the brand announced the addition of PayPal as a digital payment option, and the introduction of Papa Track – a digital pizza tracker that allows customers to follow the pizza process from the oven to delivery.
Papa John's has made significant investments in digital innovation, customer experience and staffing. Over the past year, Papa John's has increased and enhanced its tech staff, including the appointment of its first Chief Information and Digital Officer (CIDO), Mike Nettles.
"When it comes to technology and innovation, we are committed to improvements that positively affect the customer experience," said Nettles. "We prioritized and invested in additional digital payment options and the development of Papa Track to provide consumers with a seamless experience, from ordering and paying for their pizza to tracking that order to delivery."
Most Alternative Payment Options
The addition of PayPal further cements Papa John's leadership position as the national pizza brand with the most payment choices. Why does "most" matter? The suite of payment options proves Papa John's commitment to creating a "better" experience for its customers—whether that's with high-quality ingredient innovations or an easier, faster checkout. Pizza lovers can customize their purchase experience from pizza to payment as easily as they can tap their fingers, choosing between options and platforms such as PayPal, Visa Checkout and PayShare powered by Venmo.
New Papa Track Technology
Pizza your way, payment your way, and now customers can track their order all the way to delivery with Papa Track. Papa Track allows customers to see the pizza process through each step: making, baking, boxing, on its way, and delivered. Developed with customers in mind, Papa Track displays the estimated delivery time, is simple to use and available directly at www.papajohns.com.
For customers looking to proclaim their love for Papa John's pizza while they wait, Papa Track includes an option to share customized Papa John's memes and gifs on their own social channels or with family or friends to receive a code for 25 percent off their next online order.
Continued Improvement of Customer Experience
Papa John's is focused on developing a seamless digital experience through its ongoing investments in technology and innovation, and customers are taking notice. Papa John's was recently named a 2017 Chain Restaurant Consumers' Choice Award Winner in the QSR category for "Use of Technology Improves the Experience."
Papa John's is proud of this accomplishment, but is no stranger to industry firsts; the brand was the first national pizza chain to:
- offer digital ordering at all U.S. delivery restaurants (2001)
- deploy system wide mobile ordering with SMS text (2007)
- launch a nationwide digital rewards program, Papa Rewards (2010)
- offer gift cards that can be used on mobile devices.
And, at the end of 2016, more than 55 percent of the brand's domestic pizza sales came from online orders.
Let Papa John's make it easier to order pizza for any celebration, and choose the payment option that works best for you. Order online at www.papajohns.com, through Papa John's mobile ordering app for iPhone and Android devices, or through the new Apple TV app.

Peter Kay: The Tour That Doesn't Tour Tour
Note: This review is from 2010
Peter Kay is a great entertainer, but a mediocre comic. After seven years away, he's back with the same brand of straightforward home-spun observations he's always peddled, although they didn't seem to make quite the same connection with the audience as they once did. Yet by pulling out all the pyrotechnics for a full-on rock and roll finale, he ensured a near-unanimous standing ovation from a sold-out arena. That's unarguable… and why this comeback tour will gross around £26million in ticket sales alone, let alone the proceeds from the inevitable DVD and well-stocked merchandise stand.
The products on offer there tell their own story. You can still get 'garlic bread' T-shirts should you wish, indicating this show isn't going to generate many new catchphases of its own. Where once he talked about t'internet, now he mentions th'iPod. I'm guessing that didn't take the full seven years to write.
In fact, much of the writing is pretty lazy. In a long section about TV, he slags off Grand Designs, Supernanny, Secret Millionaire, Embarrassing Bodies, How To Look Good Naked and Come Dine With Me. Looks like he couldn't even press the remote to change the channel off No 4.
The comments he makes are pretty much what anyone would come up with if asked to describe the show. For instance, Come Dine With Me 'isn't a cookery show, it's all about nosy bastards' or Supernanny Jo Frost 'just states the obvious'. Which is rich from someone who's made a fortune doing just that.
His cosy nostalgia is rife here, as expected, and while he's describing things we can all relate to, there's little spin on it. Remember how you used to have to put the immersion on hours before taking a bath? Or how you'd have Imperial Leather soap for special occasions till it was worn down to just the label. Yes, I do remember – but comedy should surely be more than a good memory, laced with trademarks.
Very rarely would Kay recount something specific to him, such as witnessing his dad trap his testicles in a sun lounger, or the time he took an ill-advised swig of Coke from a friend. These were by far the best moments – nice little anecdotes skilfully told, rather than simply repeating shared experiences – and I yearned for more.
The format of the evening, in which we spend a lot of time looking at an empty stage, makes it difficult for Kay to build up momentum. In three hours, he's on stage for 80 minutes, with two long breaks, one midway through the set and one after opening act Rick Astley sets a cruise-ship lounge atmosphere with a songs including a hideous medley of Manchester acts including New Order, Oasis and – shudder – the Smiths.
But Astley encompasses everything that also epitomises Kay: a 'guilty pleasure', combining nostalgia and music. There's no disguising the fact Kay would rather have been a pop star – as his X-Factor spoof and countless kitsch charity covers prove – though he'd probably be almost as happy running a mobile disco in the Bolton area.
His love of music manifests itself in the second half, firstly when he expresses envy for the Guitar Hero generation when he had to make do with imagining his father's spade to be his axe; and secondly in his old trick of playing song samples from his Walkman, and describing how he misheard the lyrics.
Well, I say 'he'. These mondegreens, as they are called, are widely available on the internet. So when he suggests a Sister Sledge actually sing 'just let me staple the vicar' in We Are Family, and brings the house down with it, it's a observation you can grab from Google. Maybe it doesn't matter – his audience love them even more than they love the old pub gags with which he starts his show, as always. He's giving the what he wanted.
The encore in which he lives out his rock-star fantasy is a perfect example of this. Of course it's a brilliant showstopper, because he's using the music of Queen, and how can that not get an elated reaction? But still there's still a curmudgeonly argument that wants to urge him: 'If you want to be a musician, at least learn to play a goddamn instrument.'
However the 750,000 people due to see him on this tour can't be wrong. Can they?

SEAN HANNITY: Whoever heard of 200 agents surrounding a guy's ranch and stealing his cows and snipers hanging out on the outside perimeter of his ranch? We don't even secure our border anywhere near this way and I think people see it as very heavy handed regardless of who is right in the dispute or not. I don't think that's an issue at this point -- the tactics and how they are doing it. Do you believe the sheriff who says his sources are saying that they would engage in a late-night/early morning raid of this ranch, do you think that would happen?
JUDGE ANDREW NAPOLITANO: I personally know the sheriff to whom you're referring and I know him to be a person of the highest intellectual honesty. He also has the highest fidelity to the constitution, as do the deputies who work for him or used to work for him. So do I believe that the most dangerous part of this is yet to come.
Look, the federal government has a legitimate valid court order. But they don't have to enforce it by bringing in militaristic techniques. They don't have to enforce it by stealing his private property. They can enforce it by filing a document in a courthouse which will enable them to collect the money to which they are entitled when he dies or when his property otherwise passes to somebody else and they know that.

Nokia PureView 808, a Symbian handset with 41 Megapixel camera sensor, has finally made its way in to the Indian market. Priced at Rs. 29,999, the device is available at Nokia's online store. However, users can only get their hands on Nokia PureView 808 in Black. Customers interested in other colors might have to wait until first week of June.
Announced at the Mobile World Congress 2012, the phone can record high-quality 1080p HD resolution videos and comes with 5.1 Dolby Digital Sound technology and can also records sounds without distortion at audio levels as high as 140dB. The phone also allows up to 3x zoom without any loss in picture quality. The Pure View 808 has a 4-inch CBD display with a disappointingly low nHD (360×640) resolution. There is also a 1.3GHz single-core processor, 16GB of on-board memory, and a microSD card slot.
Nokia PureView 808 might be the last Symbian handset from Nokia considering its jump to Microsoft's Windows Phone. This might generate some enthusiasm among hard core Symbian fanatics, however, it needs to be seen whether the device could garner similar enthusiasm from the market. Nokia PureView's technology is also expected to be heading towards future Windows Phone handsets from Nokia.

The safety of every horse and rider that participate in the sport of Eventing is of the utmost importance and concern at the USEA. As such, there are myriad ongoing safety and research committees or task forces working towards advancing in the sport. Learn more about those efforts on the Safety page and on the Research page.
USEA-sanctioned events are held to the highest standards of safety via USEA policies, and rules and regulations for horse and rider help to ensure the safety and welfare of both. The USEA works in conjunction with the USEF to establish and implement such policies and rules.
The rules for Eventing are under the jurisdiction of the United States Equestrian Federation (USEF), the national governing body for equestrian sports in the United States. All levels of competition (Beginner Novice through Advanced) are run in accordance with the USEF Rules for Eventing.
Members of the USEF may submit a rule change proposal directly to the USEF for consideration. All rule change proposals are due by June, 1st in order to be implemented in the following year. Rule proposals may be submitted on behalf of any USEA members who are not USEF members. Email your proposal to our Senior Director of Competitions. All rule proposals directly pertaining to Eventing are reviewed by the USEA Board of Governors, with recommendations to the USEF Eventing Technical Committee. If approved by the USEF Eventing Committee, the proposal will then go to the USEF Board of Governors for a final vote. The USEF authorizes all rules for use in recognized competitions.
The USEF Rules for Eventing are published by the United States Eventing Association with permission of the United States Equestrian Federation as a courtesy to our members.

A true legacy property, Trapper's Cabin Ranch has been privately held since the 1930's and has never been offered for public sale. A complete alpine section of land (640±) acres totally surrounded by national forest and the Lee Metcalf Wilderness in a location that never could be duplicated. Sited along a clear mountain stream and a grassy alpine meadow, the building compound consists of three log homes, a manager's cabin and a host of support improvements including an off-grid power plant. There are fenced pastures, a barn and miles of trails, many extending into some of the most beautiful and wild back-country in the nation. Over the years the owners have developed a series of horseback and hiking trails on the property as well as trail rides into the surrounding public land. 29 different trail rides have been established over the years. The property is protected by a conservation easement, but thirty acres are excluded from the easement.

Gifts From Foreign Governments and International Organizations
Members, officers, and employees may accept "[a]n item, the receipt of which is authorized by the Foreign Gifts and Decorations Act, the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act, or any other statute" (House Rule 25, clause 5(a)(3)(N)).
Special rules apply to gifts from foreign governments. The Constitution prohibits federal government officials, including Members and employees of Congress, from receiving "any present . . . of any kind whatever" from a foreign state or a representative of a foreign government without the consent of the Congress.46 Congress has consented, through the vehicles of the Foreign Gifts and Decorations Act ("FGDA")47 and the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act ("MECEA")48, to the acceptance of certain gifts from foreign governments. The FGDA defines "foreign government" to include not only foreign governments per se, but also international or multinational organizations whose membership is composed of units of foreign governments, and any agent or representative of such a government or organization while acting as such.49 That Act also covers gifts from "quasi-governmental" organizations closely affiliated with, or funded by, a foreign government.
MECEA and the FGDA provisions concerning the acceptance of travel and travel expenses are addressed in the Committee's guidance on the travel provisions of the gift rule.
In addition to its travel provisions, however, the FGDA authorizes House Members, officers, and employees to accept "a gift of minimal value tendered and received as a souvenir or mark of courtesy."50 Under implementing regulations issued by this Committee,51 the term "minimal value" as used in the Act is currently defined, by reference to a statutory formula, as $390.
This provision on minimal value gifts clearly applies to gifts of tangible items. In addition, the Standards Committee has interpreted this provision to permit Members and staff to accept, from a foreign government, meals, entertainment, and local travel in the United States when related to official duties. However, since providing lodging in the United States is not normally viewed as within the realm of diplomatic courtesy, it may not be accepted. Similarly, the Committee's interpretation does not allow the acceptance of such meals, entertainment, or local travel offered by a lobbyist or agent of a foreign government, because such gifts are not properly deemed as having been "tendered as a souvenir or mark of courtesy" as required by the FGDA.
Example 40. An embassy in Washington has invited a Member to attend a dinner at the embassy. The Member may accept the invitation under the minimal value provision of the FGDA.
Example 41. An embassy official in Washington has invited a staff member to lunch at a local restaurant to discuss pending legislation concerning his country. The staff member may accept the invitation under the minimal value provision of the FGDA.
Example 42. An attorney who is a registered foreign agent has invited a staff member to lunch to discuss pending legislation concerning his client. The staff member may not accept the lunch.
The FGDA further allows a Member or staff person to accept (but not to retain) a gift of more than minimal value, as defined above, when refusal of the gift "would likely cause offense or embarrassment or otherwise adversely affect the foreign relations of the United States."53 Such gifts, however, are deemed to be accepted on behalf of the United States and become the property of the United States. Within 60 days of accepting such a gift, a Member or staff person must turn the gift over to the Clerk of the House for disposal or, with the consent of this Committee, the recipient may retain the gift for display in his or her office or other official use.41
At the time such a gift is deposited for disposal or official use, the recipient must also complete and sign a foreign gifts disclosure form, and file it with the Standards Committee.42 Copies of the form are available from the Committee office or its website, www.house.gov/ethics. If a Member or employee is uncertain whether the value of a gift exceeds "minimal value" as defined above, the Clerk's office can arrange for an appraisal.43 Under the Committee's foreign gifts regulations, the disclosure statements filed by Members and employees are publicly available at the Committee's office, and their contents are published annually in the Federal Register.44
Additionally, the FGDA allows a Member or employee to accept a gift of an educational scholarship or medical treatment from a foreign government.45
Furthermore, the FGDA applies not only to Members and employees but also to the spouse or dependant of a Member or employee.46

Pediatric Healthcare Connection was founded on something simple: an idea that there was something missing in private duty nursing care and the relationships built upon the work. After many years in the industry, we felt there could be more done to ensure a more familial relationship between administration, medical professionals, and patients' families. To us, there needed to be more time spent connecting nurses with the right families and families with the right nurses. To us, it's more than just clinical skills. We look at the bigger picture. But it only starts there. Call us, we'd love to tell you all about it. We decided to build a community of heart-filled professionals who felt valued, heard and appreciated.
PHC's vision is to create new pediatric home healthcare standards by providing the highest quality care with innovation, integrity, excellence and compassion.
PHC's mission is to change pediatric home healthcare through innovative strategies that improve the lives of patients, families, and employees.
As we have focused on being a case management company, we work hard to collaborate with all your service providers to ensure the most comprehensive care. If you are currently receiving services that include therapies, or have continued services with specialists, our team feels strongly about continuous communication to help provide the best care for your patient.
If you are a family, or a health care professional looking for our services please call (855-268-4098) or email us for more info.
Being a parent is hard enough...caring for a child with special medical needs can be an adjustment that needs reliable support. Our families are a crucial key to our comprehensive care teams, as they are the expert on their own child. We are humbled to use our own expertise to complete that care team with the right medical professionals to help make the best decisions, though sometimes very difficult, in partnering for your child's best success. Our families are very special to us, as many of us might never understand their struggles. But PHC works diligently to respect each family's commitment to their everyday struggles.
Words can't express our gratitude for PHC. In the three years we've had nursing care for our son, this is the ONLY company that has provided continuity of care for our son. We never have to worry about "strangers" showing up at our door at 7am. Communication and transparency has been one of their many strengths. Their priority is not only for their patients, but for their nurses. And in order to have happy clients, you have to have happy nurses. PHC provides comfort, peace, and COMPASSION. A perfect balance for an imperfect family dynamic with a special needs and medically complex son. Thank you PHC for bringing calmness during a very chaotic time in our life. We appreciate your commitment to serve our family.

We are a family of 7. My husband and I have 5 boys. We started a Journey with Kiptyn and nursing over 7 years ago. We have nurse's in our home almost 24/7, which provides many challenges. We started with PHC back in July 2016. We love this company. We can not say enough good things about what a great company this is. The way they have structured their company is amazing. They don't just hire a body to fill a shift. They hire for the long term and to make sure it is a good fit for the family. We have been with several nursing company's. Starting over with a new agency and nurse and trying to rebuild a good nursing team has been hard. When we started with PHC it started immediately and I feel that I have rebuilt an amazing nursing staff with the quality of nurses we have. Our son Kiptyns, success is largely due to the quality of nurse provide. The Nurses aren't just here to get a pay check, they are here for my son and work as team.
Tiffany G.
PHC has been a real blessing. We have experienced relationships with multiple nursing agencies, however no other company has instilled the trust and confidence that PHC has. The continuity of our son's care has made the ultimate difference. Six years into our life long need for nurses, I am completely positive you won't find another company like this one.

I have worked in pediatric home care since December 2014. Prior to that, I worked as a "big person" nurse, in rural hospitals in departments such as the ED, ICU, and MedSurg before I transitioned to Long-term Acute Care where I was really at home. I was also a soldier in the Army Reserves, having been deployed to Iraq in 2003. In my 20 years of nursing, I never thought I would wind up working with pediatrics. Then I stumbled upon this gem, where I get to be a big kid and watch these little people learn and grow, and overcome their various struggles. It has changed my outlook on many things, including my personal definition of what is, and is not normal. This would not have been possible without PHC, and the model of care they put forth. I am so proud to have been able to serve the amazing families and clients that I have in the Austin area, and I look forward to providing the same high quality care to our families and clients in the San Antonio and Houston areas.

Growing up in New Jersey, I, moved to Austin in 1992. The first thing I had to do was slow down and put a smile on my face. I never thought I would say things like "y'all" or know what or who the Longhorn's are. Now it is second nature. I got teased a lot for my "Jersey" accent when I first moved here. Now, when I go back to NJ, my family thinks I have a Southern accent. I started my career in Home Health in 2003 as a Field Nurse and truly enjoy hands on patient care and still work shifts weekly. In 2005 I became a Nursing Supervisor and in 2014 became Director of Nursing. I've worked for numerous Home Health companies in Austin before joining PHC in May of 2015. I have never looked back. I'm an empty nester, as both of my sons are in college. Both are born and raised Texan's. In my off time I enjoy going to concerts and watching college football. ROLL TIDE!!

I graduated as an RN in 1991 and have worked in several areas of nursing but my favorite has been the last 8 + years of pediatric homecare. Our family moved to Austin from St. Louis, MO in 2009 and I started working in pediatric homecare in 2010. PHC is by far the best company I have ever worked for. As a Supervising Nurse, I enjoy supporting our nurses and families. I love PHC's approach to management because I get to experience hands on nursing by working shifts with the patients I manage as well as build relationships with our families and nurses. In my free time, I like to spend time with our 4 sons and to listen to local live music with my husband.

I have worked in pediatric home care for the last 7+ years and it has been the most fulfilling area of nursing I've ever worked in. Originally from Paris, Tx, I moved to Austin back in 2012. In my time in Central Texas, I've worked for several pediatric private duty companies and PHC has by far been the best. I've had the pleasure of seeing PHC grow as I was the first field nurse hired back when this company was initially formed. Since becoming a Supervising Nurse in 2018, my appreciation for this company has continued to grow. I consider everyone at PHC family.

Texas born and Florida Raised, Luis Zambrano has been working with Private Duty Nursing families for over 6 years. Home health was a part of his family when he was younger and he feels strongly about helping our families find success with their PDN services. He enjoys traveling to new countries every year, hiking the trails with his pup Zoey as much as possible, and enjoys spending time with friends and family.
I love working for PHC. Jack Baldwin found my resume on Indeed. I was moving to Austin and what described in this company was everything I was looking for from an employer. This unique company values the client and the nurse involved in caring for their loved family member. I love going to work, I'm happy when I leave work and ready to go back to work the next scheduled day. It has been a while since I've felt this good about work.
PHC is by far the best company I have ever worked for in my 10 years of being a nurse. I was just about to give up nursing for awhile and my friend who is also a nurse with this company talked me into meeting the owner. I have now been with PHC almost a year and I've never been happier. I love going to work everyday. I've learned to love being a nurse again. This company cares not only for their amazing little patients but they care for their nurses and support them as well. Changing to PHC has been by far one of my best decisions I've made.
After two decades of working as a surgical recovery room nurse, I had a desire to provide more personalized patient care. The support received by PHC to transition into this type of nursing has been outstanding. They have been available at all times to answer questions and listen to my concerns. It amazed me how eager the management was to intercede on what could have been considered a seemingly minimal issue and promptly worked with the family to find a workable solution. When asked by a former coworker about how my new job was going, my response was, "I feel valued as an employee." PHC seems to hold in high regard all the positions that make up this organization. It such a refreshing change.
I have worked for several home health care companies over my career as a NICU nurse and private duty nurse. I worked in NICU units in Austin for 20 years and always wondered how my little patients did after they went home. As a private duty nurse doing home care with these little patients I get to work with them on a day to day basis as they develop. Pediatric Healthcare Connection is different from the other agencies I have worked for because they really do care about the relationships between the company, the families and the nurses. Steve Willingham is committed to making sure it is a good fit for everyone and that he doesn't take cases that he can't staff well. The support and respect that I have received through Steve is unmatched in my career. Please consider them if you are looking for a nursing agency to care for your child or if you are a nurse wanting to work with pediatric cases.
I came over to PHC July of 2016 at the urging of a friend who had positive things to say about the company. I have worked at a total 6 pediatric home health companies, so I can attest to the PHC difference! At PHC, I feel appreciated and my concerns are always addressed by the attentive, experienced, and hard working case managers. I am so glad I found PHC, and I am happy to be part of such an outstanding team of professionals committed to caring for their special kids!!
PHC is a different kind of home health company. The patients and the nurses are the top priority with this company. The personal touch is felt from Don and my nursing supervisor. I feel like a valued employee. The great benefits are just icing on the cake.
I've been an RN for almost 10 years and during that time I've worked for many different facilities. When I began with PHC a year ago I was transitioning into pediatric as well as the homecare setting. Despite my years of experience in acute care with adults- I was venturing into a whole new nursing experience! PHC has helped me every step of the way with my transition. They truly, truly and deeply care about their nurses wellbeing and happiness. I've never been a part of a team that treats the nursing staff, patients and families with as much compassionate and genuine care that the PHC team does.
Do you have a passion for working with children with special medical needs? Are you ready to work with a cohesive team of professionals who share this passion and honor commitment? We would love to learn more about your experience that has led you to finding this passion and share with you our vision for matching your drive and your profession. We strongly believe in a work-life balance, but more than that, a strong employer-employee relationship.
We offer a 10 to 1 ratio of field staff to clinical supervision. Our Clinical Supervisors work in the field regularly and are not just supervisors, but peers. They have laid eyes and hands on the patients you will work with, rather than just have Quality Assured your notes. They are kept up to date on doctor's orders and maintain clear communication with both our families and their own teams.
In addition to our clinical supervision ration, we maintain this same ratio of patients to Account Managers. We strongly believe visibility is the key to trust. Our team is regularly available to both families and staff. While office hours can be the most convenient time to discuss important matters, we remain on-call 24 hours a day to extend our availability during those off-peak times.
The industry standard does not promote continuity of care for patients, as it doesn't offer long-term reasons to stay in a home-health position. We have broken the mold of the industry by not only offering competitive pay rates but reasons to stay with our team, forever! We take "employee-sponsored" health insurance to a new level. If you aren't interested in working forever, start building your retirement with our matching 401k option that gets you there closer. Come for our team but stay for your benefits!

I've got a small open porch (approx 5ft x 3ft) with a flat roof that's leaking. It's a 1960s house and looking at my neighbours porch I'd guess that originally it was a flat concrete porch roof that has since been built up and clad with upvc (so it is now approx 10" deep/high) and a flat felt roof. A while back we had some strong winds and I fould some roofing felt on the drive but I couldn't work out where it came from. Then the porch light blew (it is fixed to the underside of the roof of the porch) and discovered the glass bowl was full of water. After isolating it i cleaned it all out and hey presto found where the roofing felt had come from. I reckon my window cleaner has stood on it at some point between the winds and the light blowing as there is a big (foor size) hole in the wood under where the felt would be so water is obviously getting in, under the concrete and pooling on top of the upvc underneath and dripping into the light fitting. Does all that make sense? :-)
So, without taking it all apart, am i correct in assuming there will be some wood bearers ontop of the concrete with planks across this topped with felt and the upvc fixed to the wood bearers? If so, should it just be a case of replacing all the wood and refelting? (i guess the bearers will be getting rotten and need replacing)
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks :-)
