Tea Act of 1773 (1773)
The Tea Act of 1773 granted the financially struggling East India Company a monopoly on the export of tea to America. The price on eighteen million pounds of unsold tea was greatly reduced, undermining American merchants. Samuel Adams was asked to express the mood of Boston citizens.
"… the Sense of the Town cannot be better expressed on this Occasion, than in the words of certain Judicious Resolves
[1] … that there can be no property in that which another can of right take from us without our consent…
[2] That the Duty imposed by Parliament upon Tea landed in America, is a tax on the Americans… without their consent…
[3] That the express purpose for which the Tax is levied on the Americans… has a direct tendency to render Assemblies useless, and to introduce Arbitrary Government and Slavery.
[4] That a virtuous and steady opposition to the Ministerial Plan of governing America, is absolutely necessary to preserve even the shadow of Liberty, and is a duty which every Freeman in America owes to his Country to himself and to his Posterity.
[5] That the Resolutions lately come by the East India Company… is an open attempt to enforce the Ministerial Plan, and a violent attack upon the Liberties of America.
[6] That it is the Duty of every American to oppose this attempt.
[7] That whoever shall directly or indirectly countenance this attempt, or in any wise aid or abet in unloading receiving or vending the Tea sent or to be sent out by the East India Company while it remains subject to the payment of a duty here is an Enemy to America.
[8] … to request [Tea Agents] immediately to resign their appointment." Samuel Adams, Resolutions of the Town of Boston, November 5, 1773

Jake's Wayback Burgers
Old-Fashioned Done Right
Jake's may be the youngest brand on our anniversary list this year, but its mindset is decidedly old school.
"We wanted to go back in time to where the burgers were just being introduced to the United States—back to the turn of the century when people experienced ground beef for the first time," says John Eucalitto, president of the premium-burger chain.
Along with a name change came a whole new design, featuring a classic look of red barn-board interiors with white and stainless steel accents. "We're just the middle-of-the-road concept," Eucalitto says. "We see ourselves as being the concept in small-town America, and that's what we like to be."
In fact, Jake's finds itself in many small towns, such as Torrington, Connecticut, and Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, and plans to continue popping up as the "hometown favorite" all across the country.
Growing from a single unit on Route 273 in Delaware to 12 units in 2009, Jake's plans to have 70 stores open by year's end.
For Jake's customers, the appeal lies in the creative products it's become famous for, like the Turkey Dinner (a turkey burger with stuffing and cranberry sauce), Cotton Candy milkshakes, and the Grilled Chicken Club on pretzel bread.
"We're going to be a little quirky. We're going to be a little different," Eucalitto says. "We're not a normal brand."

Pizza Patrón
The King of Culture
When you call the Pizza Patrón corporate office, don't be surprised if you're greeted with a cheery "Buenos diás!" That's because the 100-unit Texas-based pizza chain caters specifically to Spanish-speaking neighborhoods.
"Our brand is geared entirely toward serving the Hispanic community, and so that dictates where we locate stores, how we staff our stores, how we advertise," says Andrew Gamm, director of brand development.
Pizza Patrón, founded by Wingstop founder Antonio Swad, celebrated its aniversario de plata (silver anniversary) by partnering with Pepsi to give away Lindros collectors' bottles. They were popular in Mexico in the '80s and '90s and bear the image of Cantinflas, a Mexican movie icon.
"It's the type of promotion we like to do because it's very cultural and it reinforces who we are in the marketplace," Gamm says.
The company also introduced scratch cards to give consumers a chance to win home theater systems, DVDs, and additional Lindros bottles.
Although a relatively young brand, Pizza Patrón has been through several prototype changes in its time. Starting as a carryout-only model, it transitioned to a 600–800-square-foot mall/airport concept in 2004 (known as the Rapidito model). A year later, it added its first dine-in store, and a drive-thru model (known as "QSP"—Quick Service Pizza) followed in 2006.
The brand caught international attention in 2007 when it began accepting pesos at its stores, gaining 500 million media impressions worth $30 million in advertising in the U.S. alone.
Gamm says Pizza Patrón is well positioned, thanks to the growth of the Hispanic community in the U.S.
"I feel in many ways that Pizza Patrón is the right concept at the right time," he says. "That makes our business a very good one and makes for a very bright future for us."
35 Years
500 and Counting
On June 7, 2011, Bojangles' opened the doors on its 500th store, located in Surf City, North Carolina. For the chicken 'n biscuits chain that started as a small Carolina brand, hitting the 500-store milestone is "a validation," says Eric Newman, executive vice president of Bojangles' Restaurants.
"Bojangles' has proven itself over 35 years and over 500 operating restaurants with almost $800 million in systems sales and historical sales of more than $10 billion," Newman says.
Opening a store at the pace of one every nine days, Bojangles' has been one of the fastest-growing quick-serve brands over the past several years. "We intend not only to continue what we've been doing, but to add layers of growth to that," Newman says. "We have a large group of new prospective franchisees that we're talking to. In fact, there seems to be pent-up demand."
The company has a presence in 10 states, as well as Washington, D.C., and was recently bought by Boston-based private-equity group Advent International, which has
experience with retail brands.
"I would certainly think and hope that 35 years from now," Newman says, "you would see a national and international brand thriving by every measure."

WOW, HOW NOW BROWN COW! What I meant to say was, "HOLY COW!" these are wonderful. I giggled when I read your allusion to red and green because my project today is primarily red and I love it!!! Thanks for posting, I have missed your inspiration!!! Love, EmReplyDelete
It must be the way the planets are aligned as I too seem to be drawn to red too. But I'm being stalked by green.ReplyDelete
Ooooh, wonderful! Those red wheels are especially fab and I love your take on red & green!ReplyDelete
I definitely believe that some quilts are the boss and just say "make me", especially the ones that are made from leftovers from another quilt. I love your fan blades and of course I love red!ReplyDelete
Both are spectacular! Can't wait to see more.ReplyDelete
Both wonderful! Your unconventionaly red and green is good for all the year!ReplyDelete
love love love them both. fabulous!!!!ReplyDelete

Love those fans. the red makes such a rich background. i believe that sometimes quilts just happen because they want to!! It's great seeing the red/green quilt again, it really is special!!ReplyDelete
I love them both! I also love how the creative energy just had to let loose and so much for the tidying up!ReplyDelete
Your ferris wheel project is just wonderful! So lively and the movement is fantastic.ReplyDelete
Love your red and green as well - that border is a winner on that.
Whirling fans, how fun!! The bright red does remind me of hot Indian summers... Very cute :-)ReplyDelete
Your red and green quilt is magical! You have a way with colors!
I can't decide which I like more - the red fans or the red and green. They're both great!ReplyDelete
So glad that you went with it, the Ferris Wheel is just beautiful!! Love the bright and bold colors.ReplyDelete
love both of these and well WHAT is better then red and green quilts????ReplyDelete

Both of your quilts are scrapilicious! Such a fun energy to them both.ReplyDelete
I'd love to be a mouse in the corner and watch you work. :)
First time to pop in to your blog - your work is amazing!! I'll be back.ReplyDelete
I just love the red, my favourite colour and I love the improvisational piecing, it's fantastic and the fact that it's made of scraps is so inspiring.ReplyDelete
Sujata, these are both stunning!ReplyDelete
; )
So Beautiful ...& full of summer...dreams. Thanks for the summer warmth!ReplyDelete
Wow those are such great blocks!! So interesting and exploding with color.ReplyDelete
You always seem to invent new ways to use up those scraps. Always an inspiration. Although I love red, at the moment I am thinking blues and greens because it's hot down here and the hottest month is still to come.ReplyDelete
Wow, these are stunning!!ReplyDelete
The red in this quilt really shows the motion in the ferris wheels!ReplyDelete
These are both gorgeous!ReplyDelete
You have an awesome vision! Love the quilts!ReplyDelete
The best quilts are the ones that call out from within to be made! The ones where every decision is a struggle never turn out as well. Beautiful work!ReplyDelete
I enjoyed your post. I believe the materials often decide the finished product and almost always change from my initial thoughts. It doesn't make a lot of sense for me to buy patterns or even speculate on all the materials while in a shop because those things usually make it into the stash while other bits call out to be used. I say my bags usually make themselves. CherrieReplyDelete
Very cool stuff going on at your house. Love all the red!ReplyDelete
Great works in progress! So much energy and life to them!ReplyDelete

Konami today has officially announced PES 2013, heralding it as a "whole new ball game".
The focus this year is firmly on the pillars of individuality and full control, and promises to give football fans an "unprecedented level of control".
Taking inspiration from its cover star, Cristiano Ronaldo, PES 2013 actively encourages individuality, letting you play "any style of ball", which for the first time this means you can take "full control over shots".
The myriad changes and tweaks are being grouped under three headings:
PES 2013 is out this autumn on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Windows PC, PlayStation 2, PSP, Nintendo 3DS, and Wii.

10 Tips for Coloring Easter Eggs
Every Easter our family gets together to dye Easter eggs, a family tradition in many families. Since we try to gather all the cousins together, we now have a regular routine that works pretty well.
Here are some Tips for Dyeing Eggs:
- When buying eggs to dye, choose only refrigerated eggs with clean and uncracked shells. Always check the date on the package. Preferably, buy your eggs a few days before you will hard boil them, as really fresh eggs are harder to peel and shells stick to the eggs.
- To hard boil eggs, place eggs in cold water, covering eggs entirely. Add a tablespoon of vinegar to prevent cracking. Gently bring eggs to a boil. Simmer eggs for 10 minutes and then rinse with cold water. Some chefs suggest adding a half teaspoon of salt to prevent cracking and making peeling easier.
- Let eggs cool thoroughly before coloring. Divide the eggs between children to avoid any comments that a sibling got one more egg than the other … yes, you know what we're talking about.
- If you are going with the option of dyeing eggs with the Colored Tablets sold in stores, read the directions carefully, as each tablet must be dissolved in a separate bowl/cup in 2 teaspoons of white vinegar. This takes a few minutes so don't rush it. Water is then added to the dissolved colors, usually about 1/2 cup per container. Make sure coloring is non-toxic, so eggs can be eaten.
- You can also create beautifully dyed eggs with natural colors from food or flowers. For instructions on Foods & Flowers to use that will dye Eggs naturally, go to Whats Cooking America
- Let kids decorate eggs, if desired, using a crayon or small birthday candle, drawing designs and names before dipping into the dye. The wax will not adhere if eggs have been colored first.
- Another option for fun and easy designs that kids can do is to use rubber bands and wrap them around the eggs, leaving white areas that will take the color when the egg is dipped into the dye. Let the egg dry thoroughly or dab with paper towel before removing the rubber bands.
- Note that eggs must be kept cold prior to dyeing and after dyeing. They should only be out of the fridge for about 2 hours.
- Hard boiled eggs can be kept in the fridge for one week, so be sure to eat them within that time frame.
- As a reminder, wash hands, utensil and counters with soap and warm water before and after handling raw eggs.

One of the goals I have set myself this year is to take part in Amy Coffin's 52 weeks of Abundant Genealogy. I'm not sure how I'll go, but if I don't make a start I certainly won't finish!
Week 1 - Blogs: Blogging is a great way for genealogists to share information with family members, potential cousins and each other. For which blog are you most thankful? Is it one of the earliest blogs you read, or a current one? What is special about the blog and why should others read it?
I have my genealogy blogs in three sections on Feedly - Aus-Genie, British genealogy and Genealogy. When I check Aus-Genie I am always excited to see a post from Geniaus. I first met Geniaus at least 10-12 years ago when she came to Coffs Harbour and presented to a group of Teacher Librarians. I can still remember her talk was presented with a webpage to accompany it. She was enthusiastic and that enthusiasm rubbed off. I didn't know then that we shared another passion, that of genealogy. Her blog posts show that she has lost none of that enthusiasm and it still rubs off. Please don't stop blogging. You inspire me to keep blogging.
I also want to mention one other blog which I love. Although she hasn't blogged since November last year, Caro's Family Chronicles are a simply a delight to read. If you have ancestors from London you must read the posts titled Lost in London.

52 Weeks of Abundant Genealogy - Week 1 - Blogs
2 comments:
I only have 1 rule for my blog series, but I'm pretty firm about it: you don't have to do all 52 weeks. The goal is to have fun, and always have something to write about.ReplyDelete
Thank you for participating in the series. I hope you enjoy it!
That day trip to Coffs Harbour was a loooong time ago. I still love my technology and am pleased that genealogy has given me an outlet to merge my two passions.
I am impressed by all that you do with genealogy while holding down a job that requires so much out of school reading time.
Thank you for your kind words, your encouraging blog comments and all you do for genealogy downunder. A bit of positive reinforcement goes a long way.

Third-generation Camaros make wonderful budget builders, because you can buy them dirt-cheap. If you've just joined our performance buildup, this is the third part of a multi-part performance construction project where we started with a basic carbureted LG-4 305ci small-block with a TH700-R4 and a lazy 2.73 rear gear. The best part is that our pal Tim Moore bought this jewel for a paltry $271. Up to this point, we've added an intake manifold, a dual-snorkel air cleaner, a stronger mechanical fuel pump, and an after-cat exhaust. The Camaro responded with minor e.t. and speed improvements, but what it really needed was headers and a gear.
It's tough to make power if the air and fuel gets in but can't get out. Last month, we added an intake manifold and air cleaner, enhanced with a larger after-cat Flowmaster exhaust system. Unfortunately, our little 305ci engine was still trying to exhale through stock iron exhaust manifolds, a 2--inch Y-pipe, and the stock replacement catalytic converter. The first order of business was a set of headers. We searched through several header kits and settled on Edelbrock's 1-5/8-inch headers for the early third-gen Camaros.
The headers are completely smog-legal since they retain the original air injection reaction (A.I.R.) fittings to inject fresh air into the exhaust to help reduce hydrocarbon (HC) emissions. Car-owner Tim Moore reported that he had to move the steering column to fit the driver-side header in place. The passenger-side pipes also required some finesse to install.
The final part of the job involved some modification to the Y-pipe. We ordered the headers for a standard 305 Camaro, not the High Output (H.O.). The H.O. systems use a larger 3-inch catalytic converter, which dictates using a 3-inch Y-pipe from the headers to the catalytic converter. Since we ordered the smaller header system before we realized that we needed a 3-inch catalytic converter, Tim decided to modify the existing Y-pipe to increase it to the 3-inch size. The easier thing to do would probably be to order the H.O. headers and exhaust, and the whole system would bolt together.
We also needed a larger catalytic converter to help this engine breathe. These early systems used a single catalytic converter, so a larger 3-inch converter is essential for better breathing. DynoMax offers several universal high-performance catalytic converters, and we selected the 3-inch inlet and outlet converter. Once the converter was in place, the entire header and new converter conversion operation required the better part of eight hours to complete. Since Tim was able to do the work himself, we didn't have to pay for labor, but you could expect to pay over $400 for a muffler shop to perform this task.
Before we moved on to the gears and Posi, we decided to test the Camaro at Los Angeles County Raceway (LACR) to evaluate the performance improvement. We were expecting around a half-second improvement and hoped we might see more. LACR offers a Wednesday night test night, so we bopped up to the high desert. Even though this was an evening excursion, the air was still plenty thin with a density altitude of 4,400 feet (see "Altitude Adjustment" for more information on density altitude). At first, the Camaro was hesitant to deliver, but with a cooler engine and a higher shift rpm of 6,300 rpm, the Camaro responded with a corrected 16.29/86.59-mph pass that was a 0.46-second and 2.3-mph improvement over the previous test.
These were encouraging improvements, even if we still were only running low 16s. But still, the Camaro was going through the lights in Second gear, and we knew that what we really needed was a deeper rear gear. It was time to get serious.
Roughly a month before, we had been touring our local Pick Your Part self-service recycling yard and ran across a 2.8L V-6-powered Blazer with the standard 7.5-inch, 10-bolt rearend. Tim knew that many of these tiny V-6-powered SUVs came with a deeper 3.73 gear to give them some help from the stoplight. Someone had already relieved the dead Blazer of its spider gears, which made removing the ring-and-pinion a snap. The gears were on an open carrier, so we unbolted the ring gear and managed to walk out with an excellent set of 3.73 gears for a paltry $22.50.
A couple of days later, Tim found a Posi unit in a third-generation Camaro for a mere $25, so for less than $50, we had gears and a Posi-traction unit. We then ordered the deluxe Ratech rebuild kit through Summit for $120, which offered all the bearings and parts we needed to install the new gears. While we could have cheaped out on the bearings, we figured this would give us a virtually brand-new rear axle that could probably take most of the abuse we could dish out. Again, Tim installed the gears himself so we didn't have to add any labor to our running bill. However, you can expect to pay around $100 to $200 to have a professional shop install the gears.
With new lube in the rear axle, it was once more time to hit the track. Tim again drove the Camaro back up to LACR. Now the Camaro was much more responsive and much more fun to drive. Usually, a 3.73 gear is a pain to drive on the freeway because the rest of the world is cruising at 75 mph and you're stuck at 60 or 65 mph. But with the TH700-R4 overdrive, the effective rear-axle ratio in overdrive computes out to 2.83:1, which is extremely comfortable to drive. With our 26-inch tall rear tires, the cruise rpm was a paltry 2,560 rpm at 70 mph.
The best news was what happened at the track. The one full point of additional gear ratio made a big difference. The 305 still doesn't have the torque to fry the tires, but this means it doesn't spin the tires hard enough yet to require an investment in sticky tires. After a little tuning with secondary metering rods (we found an AY secondary metering rod worked the best), the Camaro cranked out a corrected 15.82/86.74 which was a stout 0.47-second improvement over the previous combination. The mph picked up only slightly, but we were also facing a very stiff wind that night that got so bad it knocked our last run down by 7 mph! The Camaro would probably be 1 to 2 mph faster in better conditions than the speeds we've reported here.
Combined with the headers, gears, and Posi, the Camaro is now a full 1.6 seconds quicker and 8 mph faster than it was a mere two months ago. Not only that, but the Camaro also has a street presence now with its more authoritative exhaust note, and enough gear to take maximum advantage of the remaining modifications. In an upcoming story, we're going to bolt on an emissions-legal Crane hydraulic roller cam and a set of World Products S/R Torquer heads that should put some power to the ground. Our goal is to run in the high 14s. That's a lofty goal considering that we'll need to pick up over 0.80 second just to run a 14.99. We're not sure the 170,000-mile short-block and rings can seal the cylinder pressure needed to do that, but it should be interesting to find out.
Our '87 Camaro is shaping up nicely as a real-world performance car. It's already fun to drive, still gets over 20 mpg on the freeway, and is slowly becoming quicker every day. We can't wait until next time.

"Sell them Good!" said Toppy and Vanderbrink Auctions delivered; that is the cars and all the police memorabilia in Nevada, Missouri last October 31, 2008. This private collection of cars, 60 in all, was a 50 year passion for cars by one 96 year old retired pharmacist. It took over seven months to get them cleaned up and running, (all but one) and they all sold in less than three hours. It was an amazing sight! Yvette and her family came to give it all they had and, "Sold them Very Good". So good that she is in charge of our next big auction this October. We never even considered any other auctioneer, Yvette has exceptional skills, insight and energy, and with the personal touch that means so much; after all it took Toppy 50 years to collect the masterpieces; Yvette Vanderbrink handled the project with the pride "Toppy" deserved."

For the Ganache:
In a small bowl place the chocolate. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat bring the cream to a simmer and then pour over the chocolate. Let the chocolate mixture sit for 30 seconds and then whisk until smooth, keep warm.
For the Bread Pudding:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment and add the diced brioche. Drizzle with the melted butter and toss to coat. Bake in the oven and lightly golden brown. Removing and tossing several times. This should be repeated for about 12 minutes. Once the bread has evenly browned, remove and let cool slightly.
Meanwhile in a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the cream, coconut milk, sugar and vanilla bean and seeds in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer and whisk until the sugar has dissolved. Add the chopped bittersweet chocolate and whisk until melted. Strain the mixture into a medium size bowl.
In a separate medium bowl whisk together the eggs and yolks and slowly add the warm chocolate mixture, whisking as you add.
Place half of the brioche cubes in a single layer in the bottom of a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Pour 1/2 of the custard mixture over the bread and half of the ganache. Sprinkle with half of the coconut. Press down on the bread, allowing the liquid to soak in. Place the remaining bread cubes over the top, add the remaining custard and ganache and again, press down to completely submerge the bread.
Top with the remaining coconut, cover and let sit for at least 30 minutes before baking. While the bread is sitting continue to check and press down on the bread so that it is completely submerged with the custard mixture.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Uncover the bread pudding, and place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Fill the outer roasting pan with warm water until it comes halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake until the sides are slightly puffy and the center is slightly set (but still jiggles a bit).
For the Passion Fruit Sauce:
Into a small saucepan cut the passion fruit in half and scoop out centers (including the seeds). Add the sugar, orange juice and rum and let cook over high heat until sugar has dissolved and sauce has thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and chill in the refrigerator.
For the anglaise:
Split vanilla bean. In a small heavy saucepan bring milks and vanilla bean half just to a boil and remove pan from heat. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean halves into milk and reserve pod for another use. In a bowl whisk together yolks and sugar. Add milk in a stream, whisking, and transfer custard to saucepan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, stirring, until thickened slightly and an instant-read thermometer registers 170 degrees F. Pour custard through a fine sieve into a metal bowl set in a large bowl of ice and cold water and cool, stirring occasionally, until cold. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, its surface covered with plastic wrap.
Remove the pan to a baking rack and let sit for 15 minutes. Spoon some of the coconut anglaise into a bowl and drizzle with the passion fruit sauce. Top with a large scoop of the bread pudding and serve.

An elderly Wells Tannery man was killed in an unusual one-vehicle accident last Thursday, January 18, along U.S. Route 30 in Breezewood. Police said that Offa Chamberlain, 80, Wells Tannery, operating a 1989 Chevrolet Caprice, had pulled up to an automatic washing bay at the Hinish Car Wash along the north side of Route 30 in Breezewood Thursday afternoon.

Police said that for undetermined reasons, Chamberlain's car then entered and exited the car wash at a high rate of speed, travelled east through the car wash lot and into an adjacent yard.

Chamberlain died of multiple head and chest injuries and his death is being listed as a traffic death, police said.

Joey805 needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 57 designs submitted by 15 freelance designers.
We are an awards manufacturing company looking for new, creative designs.
The audience we are targeting are youth basketball leagues. These designs will potentially become trophies which will serve as awards for youth league basketball teams.
- The trophy must be in-proportion so it stands about 7 inches tall. Exact specifications are not required in the design.
- Your trophy design must be gender-neutral. This means you cannot include figures of either a male or female, but gender-neutral figures are acceptable.(Note: figures are not required)
- Obviously the trophy must be based around a basketball theme, but object such as flames, stars and cups can be included.
- We have found motion action is very popular among our targeted demographic. It is encouraged, but not required, to include some form of motion wether it be a shooting star or a ball going through the net.(Note: there are just examples to help you get an idea)
- Designers must include a rectangular engraving plate somewhere in their design. Typically the plate is located on the base of a trophy, but it is not required to be there. The plate is about 3 units wide by 1 unit tall for reference.
*This trophy will be made out of plastic or poly-resin which are very flexible materials. So worry about just making a creative design and we will adapt to make it production ready.

The 3,000 largest companies by market cap make up the Russell 3000, with the 2,000 smaller companies making up the Russell 2000. It's a simple approach that gives a broad, unbiased look at the small-cap market as a whole.

Valero Energy Corp. plans to make good on its promises to form a master limited partnership to be composed of its logistics assets.
A Valero subsidiary, Valero Energy Partners LP, filed a document with regulators Thursday to raise as much as $345 million through an initial public offering. The number of shares to be issued and their price wasn't announced.
Valero Energy CEO Bill Klesse said earlier this year that the independent refining company, the nation's largest, was considering forming a logistics-based partnership.
The move still requires formal board approval.
Leadership for the partnership hasn't been decided, Valero spokesman Bill Day said, nor has the location of its main office.
"For now, it's safe to assume everything will be housed at the Valero headquarters," Day said.
Assets in the partnership would include crude and refined-products pipelines and terminals in three systems, which serve Valero's Port Arthur refinery, its McKee plant in the Panhandle and its Memphis refinery, according to the document.
"We believe that each of these refineries is well positioned in the markets that it serves and is critical to Valero's long-term strategy," the company said in a document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Also, for a five-year period, the partnership will have the right of first refusal to acquire certain other transportation and logistics assets owned by Valero.
For the six months ended June 30, the partnership was calculated to have had revenue of $46.4 million and net income of $22.7 million.
The partnership's common units will trade under the ticker "VLP" on the New York Stock Exchange.
Harold York, principal analyst for oil research at the Houston office of Wood Mackenzie Ltd., said master limited partnerships "normally are a benefit for shareholders because the master limited partnership can be structured in a tax-advantaged way."
Most master limited partnerships pay out a large portion of their cash flow to stockholders.
Valero said the sale of the company's units to the public would begin as soon as possible after the registration statement becomes effective.
Earlier this year, Valero spun off its retail stores to form CST Brands Inc., which immediately ranked second among North America's publicly traded sellers of fuel and convenience store merchandise.
Also, in 2011, another home-grown refiner, Tesoro Corp., spun off part of its logistics business in an initial public offering creating Tesoro Logistics LP, also a publicly traded master limited partnership.

Oh, and you forgot to include Anemone and Holland's partner in your list.
It makes me wonder if the Generation Blue have other pilots other than those young girls... They're an internationally recognized organization formed to deal with Stabs and such, right? I can't help but raise my eyebrow if their only front line members are all teenagers.
Oh well, even if that is the case, I'll just play along. XD

I guess I'll just sit back and enjoy the nice animation and the girls. It seems that characters outside of Generation Blue, the three guys in particular, are going to have important roles. Ignoring Ao's foster father, I wonder if the three guys will have more prominent roles or if most of the series will center around Ao and Naru with the Generation Blue guys. They don't appear at the end of the OP, so I'm wondering what their role is in the story.

For now it's best to enjoy it as a new show, without thinking too much about it. I think after 4-6 episodes or so, we can start making some conclusions if there is evidence which is building up. For example, in the OP, the Generation Bleu base looks a LOT like an abandoned Tower State from E7:

Damn, I'm not going to ITYS after two eps - but this was a fantastic start. The premiere was excellent, and this blew it out of the water.
So much was good here - visuals, music, Yuutaro's amazing performance, but they've actually managed to create a really interesting plot setup without using the original series as a crutch. And they have a great MC to build it around - Ao is a tough little bastard who isn't afraid to make a decision and deal with the consequences.

Yuutaro is definitely the understated secret weapon of E7AO imo. I'm really surprised by his performance so far. Ao feels like a very natural character, and the way he emotes and talks makes the series feel very different from most other shows with a shounen lead, especially in mecha shows. Very refreshing.

I really like how BONES tends to take risks with their lead castings from time to time. Even if it means that sometimes we end up with someone like Omigawa in Soul Eater. :P
It's nice that these days she gets cast in roles which seems to suit her voice a lot more, but goddamn her performance in Soul Eater was really annoying. >_<

My impression of episode 2 is the same as episode 1, this show doesn't just feel like the original, it is what happens after the finale episode of the first anime. This show manages to accurately capture the feeling of the watching the the original Erueka 7, even though if I look at it technically there isn't that many similarities (well, outside of many (many!) hints, winks and nudges in the the visuals and music in the show) but somehow I can't help but keep on feeling nostalgic for the first anime, even though I had watched it not long ago ^_^
Without being repetitive, this episode was excellent on all fronts. The music, visuals (fight choreography, background, characters etc.), voice acting were fantastic and deserve all the praise they are getting. The plot is certainly more interesting than how the original had started, thanks to the hints of the political complexities and how things had played out so far (though that might be a bit unfair to the first anime, since again this show has a 50 episode anime to build on, while the original had to start from scratch). I really loved the scenes with Ao, and I think that he might just end up being my favorite character in the show.
I will keep on saying that trying to figure out what the hell is going on and how does this show connects to the original is going to end in confusion. Sure, there are ''hints'' about this being a parallel world or whatever, but I seem to recall at some point during the first show where many had thought it was set in a parallel earth as well, only to be revealed that it was just our world post-alien invasion/10,000 years into the future. Not discouraging anyone from trying to figure out how to fit these pieces together, but I doubt you can make solve a 24 piece Jigsaw puzzle with only 2 pieces As far as I'm concerned, I'm going with the flow on my flying surfboard and seeing where the Trapar waves take me.
9 out of 10 for the second episode. Man, this is just awesome ...
Omigawa I felt got a lot better as the show went on. I mean sure when she had first started her voice sounded like nails on a chalkboard most of the time, but by the end she improved a lot and I think managed to add more to Maka's personality. So I'd say it had more to do with it being her debut role and she was still trying to find her footing most of the time than her actual voice being the issue.
(Not that that was Soul Eaters biggest problem in any case ...)
Now if you want to talk about a really bland and generally annoying performance as a male lead, let's talk Takuya Eguchi as Kujo...

Jobs for Delaware Graduates (JDG) will be celebrating its 35th anniversary with a dinner at the Chase Center on Sept. 26.
Jobs for Delaware Graduates (JDG) will be celebrating its 35th anniversary with a dinner at the Chase Center on Sept. 26.
The celebration will begin at 6 p.m. at the Chase Center, 815 Justison St., Wilmington. The purpose of the organization, which was designed in 1978, was to deal with Delaware's unemployment rate. Unemployment rate in 1978 was the second highest in the nation. The dropout rate was also one of the highest in the nation.
The public and private sector leaders of the state developed the model of Jobs for Delaware Graduates. The program proved to be so successful that Jobs for America's Graduates (JAG) was then launched under the leadership of a board consisting of a bipartisan group of governors, senior national business executives, leaders from the AFL-CIO, education, and major community organizations.
Today, Jobs for America's Graduates operates in more than 30 states and is a major component of school to work initiatives throughout the United States of America.
The event will honor both Governor Pete duPont, Founding Chairman of Jobs for Delaware Graduates and Jobs for America' s Graduates, and Governor Jack Markell, JDG Board member and Chairman of Jobs for America's Graduates.
Tickets are $150 per person.

What are extensions?
Extensions let you customize how MediaWiki looks and works.
Wiki users can browse through existing extensions or request a new extension. System administrators can install (or remove) extensions on the MediaWiki installations that they manage. Developers can write new extensions or improve or maintain existing extensions.
Search the extensions by keyword(s):
Depending on your goals you can use extensions to:
- extend the wiki markup used to write articles - see Category:Parser function extensions and Category:Parser extensions for examples.
- add new reporting and administrative capabilities - see Category:Special page extensions for examples.
- change the look and feel of MediaWiki - see Special:AllPages/Skin: and Category:User interface extensions for examples.
- enhance security via custom authentication mechanisms - see Category:User access extensions for examples.
While some extensions are maintained by MediaWiki's developers, others were written by third-party developers. As a result, many have bugs, and they are not all guaranteed to be compatible with each other. Some are unmaintained; not all extensions work on all versions of MediaWiki. Use any extension, especially those tagged as insecure, at your own risk. When using an extension requiring patches to the core MediaWiki code or entries in your database(s), be sure to create a back-up of your database and/or the core MediaWiki code, to avoid the risk of permanently breaking your wiki.
Browsing extensions
You can browse Category:Extensions by category to see the full range of extensions that have already been written. For information on installing these extensions or writing your own, see below.
Checking installed extensions
Only someone with administration access to the filesystem (and often the database too) on a server can install extensions for MediaWiki, but anyone can check which extensions are active on an instance of MediaWiki by accessing the Special:Version page. For example, these extensions are active in the English Wikipedia.
Installing an extension
MediaWiki is ready to accept extensions just after installation is finished. To add an extension follow these steps:
- Before you start
- Many extensions provide instructions designed for installation using unix commands. You require shell access (SSH) to enter these commands listed on the extension help pages.
- Download your extension.
- Extension Distributor helps you to select and download most of the popular extensions.
- Extensions are usually distributed as modular packages. They generally go in their own subdirectory of
$IP/extensions/. A list of extensions stored in the Wikimedia Git repository is located at git:mediawiki/extensions. Some extensions don't use version control and are not recommended.
- Some extensions are also available in bundles, composer or package repositories.
- Install your extension..
- Generally, at the end of the
LocalSettings.phpfile (but above the PHP end-of-code delimiter, "
?>", if present), the following line should be added:
// mw.v 1.24.x or less require_once "$IP/extensions/extension_name/extension_name.php"; // mw.v 1.25.x or above wfLoadExtension( '<extension-name>' );
- This line forces the PHP interpreter to read the extension file, and thereby make it accessible to MediaWiki.
- Some extensions can conflict with maintenance scripts, for example if they directly access $_SERVER (not recommended).
- In this case they can be wrapped in the conditional so maintenance scripts can still run.
- Generally, at the end of the
//for mw.v 1.24.x or less
if ( !$wgCommandLineMode ) {
require_once "$IP/extensions/extension_name/extension_name.php";
//for mw.v 1.25.x or above
if ( !$wgCommandLineMode ) {
wfLoadExtension ( '<extension-name>' );
- The maintenance script importDump.php will fail for any extension which requires customized namespaces which is included inside the conditional above such as Extension:Semantic MediaWiki, Extension:Semantic Forms.
- Ensure that required permissions are set for extensions!
- While this installation procedure is sufficient for most extensions, some require a different installation procedure. Check your extension's documentation for details.
- If you want to alter configuration variables in LocalSettings.php, you have to do this typically after including the extension. Otherwise defaults defined in the extension will overwrite your settings.
Caution: While extension declaration can be placed in other places within the LocalSettings.php file, never place extensions before the
require_once "includes/DefaultSettings.php";line for MediaWiki versions below 1.17 . Doing so will blank the extension setup function arrays, causing no extensions to be installed, and probably will make your wiki inaccessible until you fix it!
Upgrading an extension
Some extensions require to be updated whenever you update MediaWiki, while others work with multiple versions. To upgrade to a new version of an extension:
- Download the new version of the extension
- Replace all the extension files in the
extension/ExtensionNamedirectory with the new files. Do not remove the extension configuration present in LocalSettings.php
- Depending on the extension, you may have to run the Update.php maintenance script. Most extensions will mention if this script needs to be run or not. (Perform backup of your data before executing the script). If you don't have command line access, you can also use the web updater.
- That's all you need to do. In most cases any extension configuration you have in LocalSettings.php will also work with the newer version of the extension.
Uninstalling an extension
Extensions are added by adding a line to LocalSettings.php, which basically looks like this:
// mw.v 1.24.x or less
require_once "$IP/extensions/extension_name/extension_name.php";
// mw.v 1.25.x or above
wfLoadExtension( '<extension-name>' );
- Remove this line and the extension is uninstalled. If you want to, you can (and if you do not want to use this extension in the future you should) remove the files of this extension inside the folder "extensions/".
- Maybe you also have some other lines in LocalSettings.php, which have to do with the extension you want to remove. Most likely this will be lines, which give certain users the right to access pages, which are provided by the extension. These lines contain the variable "$wgGroupPermissions" and make some settings there. As far as they have to do with rights, which come from the removed extension, you can remove these lines as well.
- Maybe your extension also has added columns to your database. The updater maintenance/update.php removes them, when you run it, after you have uninstalled the extension.
Developing extensions
This complex topic is handled on the developing extensions manual page.

Volunteer Forum - September 11, 2010by Tom Runge • September 12, 2010 Share:
Wabash's Annual Volunteer Forum, a yearly event for alumni volunteers to catch up on the latest college news as well as news on the successes of other volunteers, drew a good group on September 11, 2010.
President Pat White welcomed everyone and outlined the structure of the morning's meetings. President White explained that the sessions covered the implementation of the college's vision for the future as outlined in the 2008 Strategic Plan.
Dean of the Faculty Gary Phillips covered two topics of great importance to all the volunteers. Gary covered the changes in the size of the faculty, explaining that the economic realities the college faced and is facing meant that cuts were mandatory. A structured approach, led by the Dean and Department leaders, insured that teaching and the students curriculum desires were met. Gary also explained that the resultant size of the faculty meant that the two-course makeup of C & T (Cultures and Traditions) simply would not be supportable going forward. A new course, a single semester course, Enduring Questions (a core element of the mission statement and the liberal arts), will replace C & T starting in the fall of 2011.
Dean for Advancement Joe Emmick gave the group a sneak preview of the Challenge of Excellence, a college effort designed to support important educational initiatives by providing the necessary funding as the college transitions to a new, leaner financial model. Joe sees this effort as an exciting opportunity for alumni to bolster the opportunities Wabash student have and will have. More details about this exciting new program will be available in the near future - the Challenge of Excellence kickoff will be held on October 29, 2010 on campus.
Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid Steve Klein outlined the challenges facing his team as they begin another recruiting cycle. Steve explained that 57% of the student enrollment across the country is female. That means the competition is keener than ever for talented young men – the kind of students we want at Wabash. Steve mentioned several colleges that have recently introduced football as an intercollegiate sport simply to bolster their male populations. This competition is heightened as Wabash, facing the financial realities mentioned by Gary Phillips, has had to cut spending on Financial Aid and is moving towards increasing tuition revenue as a source of operating capital. Steve reiterated the continuing important role that alumni referrals make, as a Wabash alumnus referred 40% of the Class of 2014.
Director of Public Affairs and Marketing, and Secretary of the College, Jim Amidon '87, demonstrated the ever-changing role marketing plays in recruiting students. Jim mentioned the approach of the 1960 when students interested in the college we're asked to write in for information and an application. A big recruiting graphic in those days was a campus map! Contrast that to today where a prospective student wants highly compact information and the college has mere seconds to make it's case to a young man who might be exploring a dozen schools and hearing from 100. Jim outlined that this rapidly changing recruiting environment is a prime reason the 2008 Strategic Plan called for a comprehensive review of our marketing effort and this process is well underway.
Jon Pactor '71 provided a quick update on WABASH Day (October 9 and 10, 2010) and mentioned all of the information on Wabash Day is available on the college web site (www.wabash.edu/wabashday) including detailed information on the location and details of every regional project.
Representatives of two regional associations – Grand Rapids, Michigan and St. Louis, Missouri - provided information on how they have been able to be successful in generating solid alumni engagement. The Grand Rapids Group – represented by Jay Fisher '66, Kenyatta Brame '92, Bill Hecker '05, and Justin Vander Iest '06 – use a committee structure for their annual programming. Committee members take responsibility for upcoming events and involvement the leadership in generating good turnouts. The St. Louis Group – represented by Jim Dyer '83 – relies on a similar structure but their annual programming includes traditional and non-traditional Wabash events, offering a menu of annual programming that appeals to a broad base of alumni. Regardless of the approach, two key factors were readily apparent. Communication is the key to success – email works for younger alumni and a phone call will bring out older alumni. Second, a regional association has to offer events that alumni want to attend and the pricing of events must be attractive to younger alumni.

Last year was the hottest year on record for the contiguous 48 states, marked by near-record numbers of extreme weather events such as drought, wildfire, tornadoes and storms, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
In its annual report, State of the Climate, NOAA reported that the average annual temperature was 55.3 degrees — 3.3 degrees greater than the average temperature for the 20th century. It was also a full degree higher than the previous record-high temperature, set in 1998 — the biggest margin between two record-high temperatures to date.
The report confirmed what many Americans may have suspected over the last year: that extreme weather events are becoming more common. The only year when there were more extreme weather events was 1998, largely because a greater number of tropical cyclones made landfall, NOAA researchers said.
In 2012, the Upper Midwest was hit with floods, the mid-Atlantic with sudden summertime storms, the West with wildfire and the Northeast with Hurricane Sandy, among many other events. Most of the country even now remains in the grip of drought.

A talent for self-promotion helped build a booming enterprise, and she spent lavishly on luxurious homes. Walker also funded scholarships for women at the Tuskegee Institute and donated large sums to the NAACP, the black YMCA and dozens of other charities.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 7, 2013 - Award-winning film and video game composer Kevin Riepl ( Silent Night, ABCs of Death, The Aggression Scale, Gears of War, Resistance: Burning Skies) has created an original symphonic score for the highly anticipated blockbuster ALIENS™: COLONIAL MARINES video game, launching worldwide on February 12, 2013. Developed by critically acclaimed studio Gearbox Software in partnership with Twentieth Century Fox, ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES is the authentic addition to the ALIENS canon, bringing new levels of bone-chilling suspense and adrenaline-filled action to the renowned franchise.
Continuing the legacy of Jerry Goldsmith's music in ALIEN and James Horner's music in ALIENS, Kevin Riepl's original score for ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES features all new themes and atmospheric underscores while staying faithful to the franchise's iconic scores of Ridley Scott's and James Cameron's classic sci-fi horror cinema. Infusing his haunting, sweeping and bombastic orchestral score with familiar nods and intense cinematic action music performed by full live orchestra, Riepl draws on his own classical training and film scoring background to create an authentic ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES score that will immerse players in the definitive ALIENS gaming experience.
Composing music for multiple entertainment genres, Kevin Riepl's engaging and atmospheric scores have enhanced numerous indie films such as ABCs OF DEATH, CLEMENCY, THE AGGRESSION SCALE (Global Music Awards Winner) and the recent holiday season horror feature, SILENT NIGHT. In addition to scoring film festival winners and genre cult films including the emotional sci-fi short HENRI starring Keir Dullea (2001: A Space Odyssey) and Oddball Animation Studios' stunning concept film, RUIN (Global Music Awards Winner), Kevin Riepl is also renowned for composing the epic, signature score for the blockbuster video game GEARS OF WAR. Most recently his sci-fi action score for Sony's RESISTANCE: BURNING SKIES was awarded "Best Original Score for a Video Game or Interactive Media" in the 2013 Movie Music UK Awards. For more information on Kevin Riepl, visit www.kevinriepl.com.
A true continuation to James Cameron's film ALIENS, the story of ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES takes place after the events of the second film. In ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES, players are part of a U.S. Colonial Marine squad and must prepare to face an alien assault, more intense and horrific than ever before. Driven by a compelling and original story, ALIENS: COLONIAL MARINES retains the atmospheric look and feel of the original films while creating an entirely new interactive ALIENS experience.

All types of federal and state aid are restricted to students who are U.S. citizens or eligible non-citizens. If you are applying as an eligible non-citizen (i.e., permanent resident, U.S. national, refugee, etc.) you must submit evidence of your status from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. If you are a foreign student (F-1 visa), you are not eligible for federal or state funds and cannot be employed off campus without special permission. You may, however, apply for scholarship consideration if you meet all applicable requirements and deadlines.
International students needing special assistance, financial or otherwise, may visit the Office of International Education for more information.
The Office of Student Financial Aid provides undergraduate and graduate students with resources about types of financial aid and student employment.
