Abstract: An inverse stirrup for use in horseback riding that a horseback rider contacts with the top of the rider's foot to resist upward or transverse force and maintain position on the horse. The inverse stirrup is attached to the horse by means of a circumferential or semi-circumferential strap such as the girth strap passing beneath the horse such that the inverse stirrup resists displacement upward.

Abstract: A method for managing parameters associated with a product or service order by a user and its subsequent delivery to the user; the method a comprising inputting order data into a digital device thereby to define an order; transmitting the order to a queue management server; receiving historical data associated with the order; receiving substantially real time data associated with the order thereby to define an estimated pickup/delivery time coinciding with the estimated order fulfilment time. Also disclosed is a system for implementing the method. Also disclosed is a local queue management processor or engine.

Abstract: A system for horseback riding comprising an inverse stirrup which allows a horseback rider to use the top of the rider's foot to resist upward or transverse forces so as to maintain the rider's position on the horse. The inverse stirrup is attached to the horse by a circumferential or semi-circumferential strap passing beneath the horse such as the girth strap, or directly to the saddle, such that the system resists upward displacement of the inverse stirrup.

Abstract: A colored coating composition comprising a white base paint and at least one colored pigment in a form that can be readily mixed with the white base paint, the white base paint comprising a film-forming polymer, a liquid carrier, one or more opacifying white pigments and one or more extenders, the colored coating composition having a light reflectance value Y less than 110, and greater than that defined by the equation Y=mC+K, where 25>C>1.0, C being the chroma of the colored coating composition, m and K being empirical coefficients selected according to the type and number of the type of the at least one colored pigment, and dependant on the hue angle of the coating composition.

Abstract: An aqueous liquid colorant composition having a volatile organic content up to 50 g/l and suitable for colouring aqueous or solvent borne architectural coatings and basepaints comprising based on the total weight of the composition, i) from 1 to 26% of non-volatile organic liquid having a vapour pressure up to 1.3 N/m2 at 25° C. and comprising a mixture of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polypropylene glycol (PPG) ii) from 2 to 13% of stabilising agent iii) from 4 to 77% of colour pigment iv) from 0 to 8% of rheology modifying clay v) from 0 to 20% of extender wherein the ratio of the combined weight of iii)+iv)+v): the combined weight of i)+ii) is from 0.8 to 2.75:1 and the combined weight of the non-volatile organic liquid i) and the stabilising agent ii) is no greater than 24% and the combined weight of the rheology modifying clay iv) and the extender v) is at least 2% when the amount of colour pigment is less than 51%.
