  • Genesis Energy, L.P. 2013 Annual Report To
    GENESIS ENERGY, L.P. 2013 ANNUAL REPORT TO UNITHOLDERS LETTER TO OUR UNITHOLDERS Our past year was busy as we continued to identify and secure new opportunities for our partners to participate in the growing demand for our integrated services and capabilities. The opportunities available to us continue to be reflective of the need for new infrastructure to respond to changing fundamentals in North American crude oil production and refining. Our initiatives and strong business fundamentals resulted in record Segment Margin of $280.3 million, a 7% increase over 2012. We also generated record Available Cash before Reserves of $186 million for the year. Our operational highlights and accomplishments in 2013 included the following: We achieved segment margin improvements in each of our segments. Pipeline Transportation, Refinery Services and Supply and Logistics improved over 2012 by approximately 13%, 3% and 3% respectively. In Pipeline Transportation, our volumes increased on our Florida system due to volumes from our integrated rail unload facility at Walnut Hill, Florida. Volumes also increased on our offshore Cameron Highway Oil Pipeline System as the completion of facility work by producers at the connected production fields resulted in higher volumes transported in 2013. In Refinery Services, customer demand for NaHS remained high. Our new Tulsa facility continues to add to our supply diversification and our other existing facilities continue to perform well. In Supply and Logistics, we benefited from the acquisition of our offshore marine transportation business and experienced early contribution from our crude oil rail loading and unloading operations. Challenges in our fuel oil business resulted in lower volumes handled at reduced margins.

  • The History of the Ohio High School
    The All-American Conference 1963-1978 The All-American Conference was the premier Ohio league during its existence. Massillon, Niles McKinley, Canton McKinley, and Warren Harding joined in 1963, with Steubenville in 1966, and Alliance in 1969. In 1979 the conference disbanded, primarily because of the dominance of Massillon. In the 16 years the league existed, Massillon won or tied for Champions 10 times, second 3 times, third 1 time, and fourth 2 times. 1963 – Massillon 2-0-0 1st 1971 – Massillon 3-2-0 3rd 1964 – Massillon 3-0-0 1st 1972 – Massillon 5-0-0 1st 1965 – Massillon 3-0-0 1st 1973 – Massillon 4-1-0 T 1st 1966 – Massillon 1-3-0 T-4th 1974 – Massillon 3-2-0 2nd 1967 – Massillon 4-0-0 1st 1975 – Massillon 3-2-0 2nd 1968 – Massillon 3-2-0 2nd 1976 – Massillon 5-0-0 1st 1969 – Massillon 2-2-1 4th 1977 – Massillon 4-1-0 T 1st 1970 – Massillon 5-0-0 1st 1978 – Massillon 4-0-1 1st The following is a Master’s Thesis by James Rubin (owner of Howards Tiger Rags) written in 1973.

  • House of Representatives
    House of Representatives JON BURNS MAJORITY LEADER ROOM 338, STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30334 December 4, 2020 SENT VIA EMAIL: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger Chairperson of the State Election Board Mrs. Rebecca N. Sullivan Vice-Chairperson of the State Election Board Dear Secretary Raffensperger and Mrs. Sullivan, As I am sure you have seen over the past month, many Georgians, including my colleagues who have signed this correspondence, have serious concerns about Georgia’s elections. As we approach a critical election on January 5, 2021, it is clear that Georgia voters must have confidence in the election process going forward. To that end, below you will find two common-sense suggestions: a rule that should be promulgated by the State Election Board (the “SEB”) and additional resources of which the Office of the Secretary of State (the “SOS”) or the SEB could take advantage. I. Absentee Ballot Application and Mail-In Absentee Ballot Signature Review Process. As the process currently stands, when a voter wishes to vote early by mail, they submit an Absentee Ballot Application (“Application”) either through the mail or online. When a local Board of Registrars (the “BOR”) receives a paper Application, typically, a single employee of the BOR is responsible for the initial review of a signature on a paper Application. If that paper Application is accepted, the BOR mails an Absentee Ballot to the voter. The process for reviewing signatures on the external envelope of a returned Absentee Ballot is the same – a single employee of the BOR is allowed to “approve” a signature without oversight by other employees or independent observers.

  • Wrestle Until He Prevails
    Web Edition – September/ October, 2015 Wrestle Until He Prevails And Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day. .Then he said, 'Let me go, for the day is breaking.' But Jacob said, 'I will not let you go unless you bless me.' Genesis 32:24,26 October brings to mind the Reformation, and the role that Dr. Martin Luther played in restoring the church. In order to get to the heart of the Reformation, I feel that it is necessary to look at the personal life and writing of Dr. Martin Luther. There you will find a man who often wrestled in his weakness to find the strength of God. He is not unlike the man Jacob in the Scriptures. In the book of Genesis we read about Jacob's wrestling with God. There is a strange paradox here: Jacob prevailed in his prayer for help. The angel of God's presence said, "Your name shall no more be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with man and have prevailed." (vs. 28) But how did he prevail? By clinging to God in his utter need and weakness, knowing there was help in no one else. Sometimes there is nothing else to do but to wrestle with God. We may not know the path we should take, and we have to wrestle through until light breaks. We may find that our will and what we perceive as God's will are not in harmony, and we have to wrestle until He prevails.

  • Fight, Flight Or Lockdown Edited
    Fight, Flight or Lockdown: Dorn & Satterly 1 Fight, Flight or Lockdown - Teaching Students and Staff to Attack Active Shooters could Result in Decreased Casualties or Needless Deaths By Michael S. Dorn and Stephen Satterly, Jr., Safe Havens International. Since the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007, there has been considerable interest in an alternative approach to the traditional lockdown for campus shooting situations. These efforts have focused on incidents defined by the United States Department of Education and the United States Secret Service as targeted acts of violence which are also commonly referred to as active shooter situations. This interest has been driven by a variety of factors including: • Incidents where victims were trapped by an active shooter • A lack of lockable doors for many classrooms in institutions of higher learning. • The successful use of distraction techniques by law enforcement and military tactical personnel. • A desire to see if improvements can be made on established approaches. • Learning spaces in many campus buildings that do not offer suitable lockable areas for the number of students and staff normally in the area. We think that the discussion of this topic and these challenges is generally a healthy one. New approaches that involve students and staff being trained to attack active shooters have been developed and have been taught in grades ranging from kindergarten to post secondary level. There are however, concerns about these approaches that have not, thus far, been satisfactorily addressed resulting in a hot debate about these concepts. We feel that caution and further development of these concepts is prudent. Developing trend in active shooter response training The relatively new trend in the area of planning and training for active shooter response for K-20 schools has been implemented in schools.

  • League History to Not Only Win Two Championships but Win Them Back to Back
    NEW ENGLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE 99 NORTH END BLVD. SALISBURY, MA 01952 Phone and Fax: (978) 465-3046 Email: [email protected] HISTORY OF THE NEW ENGLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE 1994 The NEFL was founded in 1994 by League President and Director of Marketing, Tom Torrisi, Chairman Matt Brien, Commissioner Bob Oreal, Vice-President and Treasurer John Motta and Secretary Christine Torrisi. In its inaugural season, the league consisted of only four teams, the Lawrence Lightning, the Greater Lawrence Grizzlies, the Rockingham Reapers and the Haverhill Rage. All the games were played on one practice field and each team had only between 22 - 25 players on their roster. The first year, however, was a success because the league was built on a solid foundation. Each team had sponsorship from local area businesses and the league had adopted a stringent set of rules, regulations and bylaws that kept everything on and off the field highly organized. All game officials were certified Eastern Massachusetts high school officials and all rules were strictly enforced right down to the uniform rule. It was these things that gave the NEFL credibility and allowed for media coverage by local newspapers. The Lawrence Lightning became the league’s first champions by defeating the Haverhill Rage. 1995 In 1995, the NEFL expanded by two teams, the Bay State Bulldogs, another team representing the Greater Lawrence area and the Boston Bandits from Greater Boston. The league now had its first team from outside of the Merrimack Valley. The Lawrence Lightning moved to Methuen to become the Essex County Sharks, the Rockingham Reapers changed their name to the Cougars, and the Haverhill Rage relocated to Hampton, New Hampshire to become the Seacoast Rage.

  • The Passion of the Superfly
    8/27/2015 Koh M/C Journal, Vol. 12, No. 2 (2009) - 'enthuse' "Gently Caress Me, I Love Chris Jericho": Pro Wrestling Fans "Marking Out" http://journal.media-culture.org.au/index.php/mcjournal/article/view/143 Wilson Koh “A bunch of faggots for watching men hug each other in tights.” For the past five Marches, World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has produced an awards show which honours its aged former performers, such as Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka and Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, as pro­wrestling Legends. This awards show, according to WWE, is ‘an elegant, emotional, star­studded event that recognizes the in­ ring achievements of the inductees and offers historical insights into this century­old sports­entertainment attraction’ (WWE.com, n.p.). In an episodic storyline leading up to the 2009 awards, however, the real­life personal shortcomings of these Legends have been brought to light, and subsequently mocked in one­on­one interview segments with WWE’s Superstar of the Year 2008, the dastardly Chris Jericho. Jericho caps off these tirades by physically assaulting the Legends with handy stage props. Significantly, the performances of Jericho and his victims have garnered positive attention not only from mass audiences unaware of backstage happenings in WWE, but also from the informed community of pro­wrestling fans over at the nihilistic humour website SomethingAwful. During Jericho’s assault on the Legend Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka at the March 02 WWE Raw event, a WWE­themed forum thread on SomethingAwful logged over sixty posts all reiterating variations of ‘gently caress me Jericho is amazing’ (Jerusalem, n.p.).
