  • Ethics Agreement in Order to Avoid Any Financial Conflict
    Date: 7 .-e-•15 Iett..% 1--4 17 MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD SUBJECT: Ethics Agreement In order to avoid any financial conflict of interest in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 208(a) or the appearance of a financial conflict of interest as defined in the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch, 5 C.F.R. § 2635.502, and to adhere to the Ethics Pledge instituted by Executive Order 13770 issued on January 28, 2017, and entitled "Ethics Commitments by Executive Branch Appointees" (the Ethics Pledge), I am issuing the following statement. I understand that as an appointee I must sign the Ethics Pledge and that I will be bound by the requirements and restrictions therein even if not specifically mentioned in this or any other ethics agreement. Before beginning my covered Federal position, I resigned from my non-Federal positions with the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) and the State of Georgia on July 6, 2017.

  • New Ceridian Form 10
    STUVWXYZR March 2, 2001 Dear Stockholder: As we first announced in July 2000, Ceridian will split into two independent, publicly-traded companies, Ceridian and Arbitron, through a tax-free spin transaction. We believe the separation of Arbitron and Ceridian will create two sharply focused companies well-positioned to pursue and realize their potential as independent companies in the distinctly different markets they serve. Both businesses have strong competitive positions within their respective markets, solid existing businesses and attractive future prospects. As separate companies, we believe they will be in a better position to pursue attractive growth opportunities for the benefit of the employees and customers of their businesses while optimizing the value of each individual company. After the transaction, Ceridian will be comprised of its human resource services division and subsidiaries and Comdata subsidiaries. These businesses have similar operational profiles in that both provide outsourcing services to customers of all sizes and both have large-scale transaction processing, money movement and regulatory compliance services as their core businesses. Both businesses have significant growth opportunities in their respective markets. We plan to maximize the synergies and the opportunities for cross-selling that exist among and between Comdata and our human resource services business to take better advantage of the potential in these markets. As an independent company, Arbitron will be in a better position to take advantage of the opportunities presented by its two promising new technologies, the Portable People Meter and Arbitron Webcast Ratings. Arbitron plans to pursue co-product development, co-marketing and other relationships with third parties to help accelerate the full commercialization of these two new services which Arbitron believes will significantly improve the way radio, television, cable and Internet streaming media audiences are measured.

  • The Trumpet As a Voice of Americana in the Americanist Music of Gershwin, Copland, and Bernstein
    THE TRUMPET AS A VOICE OF AMERICANA IN THE AMERICANIST MUSIC OF GERSHWIN, COPLAND, AND BERNSTEIN DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Amanda Kriska Bekeny, M.M. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Timothy Leasure, Adviser Professor Charles Waddell _________________________ Dr. Margarita Ophee-Mazo Adviser School of Music ABSTRACT The turn of the century in American music was marked by a surge of composers writing music depicting an “American” character, via illustration of American scenes and reflections on Americans’ activities. In an effort to set American music apart from the mature and established European styles, American composers of the twentieth century wrote distinctive music reflecting the unique culture of their country. In particular, the trumpet is a prominent voice in this music. The purpose of this study is to identify the significance of the trumpet in the music of three renowned twentieth-century American composers. This document examines the “compositional” and “conceptual” Americanisms present in the music of George Gershwin, Aaron Copland, and Leonard Bernstein, focusing on the use of the trumpet as a voice depicting the compositional Americanisms of each composer. The versatility of its timbre allows the trumpet to stand out in a variety of contexts: it is heroic during lyrical, expressive passages; brilliant during festive, celebratory sections; and rhythmic during percussive statements. In addition, it is a lead jazz voice in much of this music. As a dominant voice in a variety of instances, the trumpet expresses the American character of each composer’s music.
