                       Wednesday, October 7, 2015

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Jeff Gill for 
successfully completing his 375th career triathlon last month.
  Triathlons have allowed Jeff to travel the world. Of all the places 
he's traveled to compete, it was great to see Jeff complete his 
milestone triathlon in his hometown of Katy, Texas in a race he hasn't 
missed in over 20 years. Jeff has already completed nine triathlons 
just this year and hopes to complete nine more. He is well on his way 
to number 475.
  We all look forward to cheering him along throughout his triathlon 
career. On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Jeff for completing his 375th triathlon.

                       SENATE COMMITTEE MEETINGS

  Title IV of Senate Resolution 4, agreed to by the Senate of February 
4, 1977, calls for establishment of a system for a computerized 
schedule of all meetings and hearings of Senate committees, 
subcommittees, joint committees, and committees of conference. This 
title requires all such committees to notify the Office of the Senate 
Daily Digest--designated by the Rules Committee--of the time, place and 
purpose of the meetings, when scheduled and any cancellations or 
changes in the meetings as they occur.
  As an additional procedure along with the computerization of this 
information, the Office of the Senate Daily Digest will prepare this 
information for printing in the Extensions of Remarks section of the 
Congressional Record on Monday and Wednesday of each week.
  Meetings scheduled for Thursday, October 8, 2015 may be found in the 
Daily Digest of today's Record.
