Governor Ann Richards in now former Governor Ann Richards. A lady who had a 60% approval rating was defeated by George Bush, Jr. The soon to be governor Bush brings a lot offear to the lesbian/gay community for now they know that the "good life" under Ms. Richards is over. The next four years are already being ccMisidered years of oppression and defeat. Unlike most of my brothers and sisters,I am saddened about the defeat of Ms.Richards, but I also have a sparkle of hope for the gay and lesbian community. Maybe now, you will all get up off your butts and fight for what is rightfully ours. Under Ms. Richards, we did enjoy a bit more freedom,but whatlittle amounts we enjoyed were just that,little I If we want to mope around in sorrow for the nextfour years,then we are going to receive what is rightfully due us,nothing. It is more important now than ever to shop gay,lesbian and gay friendly stores. We must get the vote out as well. In 1985, Houston lost an election for equal employment rights. In 1994 Austin lost an election for domestic partnership benefits. On November 8,1994,Texas lost an election for Ann Richards. All ofthese losses were due to apathy and selfrighteous thoughts such as,"It can't happen here," or "They won't vote against us.' If our past has taught us nothing,then we are doomed to the concentration camps as the Jews and other gays and lesbians were during Hitler's time. You may think this to be a crazy thought, but just go back over the past ten years and see how things are shaping up, then compare it to Hitler's time. Is it really a crazy thought? As Director and founder of Spectrum '95,and executive producer of the Gay 90s,I will continue my fight to teach people who we are and that we are not the terrible monsters the right wing wishes us to be. However,I and the people I work with can only do so much. It is time for the closeted gays and lesbians to be counted,for the gay dollars to be spent where gay and lesbian jobs count on it. We must show our strength now,as in the past, regardless of who is in the Governor's office or the President's seat. We cannot trust those in politics, simply because they sell out. We must make our strength untied and act as one for the common goal of equal rights. Sincerely yours, B.

  • 2011 Annual Report
    Golden Crown Literary Society 2013 Annual Report Executive Summary The Golden Crown Literary Society (GCLS) is a literary and educational organization for the enjoyment, discussion, and enhancement of lesbian literature. Our goals are to support and strengthen quality lesbian literature by providing places for readers and writers to interact, to encourage and assist new writers and established authors, and to recognize and promote lesbian work. Our 7th year of operation has seen the GCLS grow in numbers, in strength, and in visibility. It began with our application toward becoming a non-profit organization and ended with our members stepping up on a massive fund raising drive. Here are a few of our achievements: Tax exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code Successful implementation of our educational webinar program Successful 7th conference that earned enough for GCLS to pay the deposit on the hotel for our 8th conference in 2012 Members generously donated to our conference scholarship program, through which 6 people were assisted with their conference expenses Successful fund raising drive to redesign the CIM and website with increased functionality and reporting capability. Raised membership dues to $20 which has increased our operating budget to cover expenses of the organization such as PayPal fees, CPA services, tel- ephone conference calls, Survey Monkey fees, and other operating costs. A CPA regularly reviewing our finances to ensure non-profit compliance and that our reports adhere to generally accepted accounting principles. Here are some of our goals as we move into our 8th year: Expand our membership Increase visibility and accessibility to all members and potential members Offer more educational programs Explore the potential of regional groups This has been an incredibly successful year for the GCLS and I look forward to the prospects for next year.

MOREHEAD WON THE EL PASO MAYORAL RACE ON A PLATFORM THAT PROMISED AN ACCEPTABLE WATER SYSTEM FOR THE CITY. LATER THAT YEAR, THE INTERNATIONAL WATER COMPANY (IWC) BEGAN CONSTRUCTION OF A WATER WORKS ON THE MESA NORTH OF FORT BLISS TO TAP INTO THE HUECO BOLSON AQUIFER. AROUND 1904, IWC REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR WITH A NEW PUMP PLANT. THIS NEW MESA PUMP PLANT DREW WATER FROM THE MESA WELLS THAT WAS THEN STORED IN A ONE-MILLION- GALLON, IN-GROUND TANK. HOWEVER, IN ORDER TO MEET DEMAND, IWC PUMPED WATER AT A RATE THAT EXCEEDED REPLENISHMENT. THE CITY OF EL PASO PURCHASED THE IWC IN 1909 FOR $927,000, BUT EVEN UNDER MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP, THE PUMP PLANT COULD NOT MEET THE DEMAND FOR WATER. BY THE LATE 1930s, THE CITY HAD BOTH EXPANDED THE MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEM AND REVAMPED EXISTING FACILITIES IN ORDER TO MEET CONSTANTLY INCREASING DEMAND. BY 1937, THE CITY HAD BOTH A LOW-SERVICE DISTRICT SYSTEM FOR ELEVATIONS BELOW 3,850 FEET AND A HIGH-SERVICE DISTRICT SYSTEM FOR ELEVATIONS ABOVE 3,850 FEET; THE MESA PUMP PLANT WAS INCLUDED IN THE HIGH-SERVICE SYSTEM. THE CITY OF EL PASO DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND SEWAGE BUILT THE MESA WATER BOOSTING STATION IN 1938 TO REPLACE THE AGING MESA PUMP PLANT.

  • Lapson – Direct Page 9 of 26
    Page 8 of 26 1 included with the Proposed Transaction, although it is quite possible that EPE will 2 experience a one-notch downgrade of its Moody’s rating due to weaker cash flow, 3 regardless of whether the Proposed Transaction is consummated. As is discussed below, 4 Moody’s placed EPE on negative credit outlook more than a year before the 5 announcement of the Proposed Transaction, therefore any future downgrade by Moody’s 6 would likely be the result of factors unrelated to the Proposed Transaction. While both 7 Moody’s and S&P took ratings action following the announcement of the merger 8 agreement, when the Proposed Transaction closes the protection of the credit ratings of 9 EPE will be aided by the full and complete set of ring-fencing commitments proposed by 10 the Joint Applicants. 11 In preparing my Direct Testimony, I compared the ring-fencing provisions 12 proposed by the Joint Applicants against a systematic and comprehensive list of standards 13 that reflects my prior experience regarding credit defaults and bankruptcies particularly in 14 the utility and energy sector. This master list of standards incorporates the guidelines 15 applied by the three major credit rating agencies. The Joint Applicants’ proposed ring- 16 fencing provisions satisfy every aspect of these standards. Taken together, these 17 protective provisions will provide strong separation for EPE and EPE’s customers and 18 communities from risk of involuntary consolidation in bankruptcy with Sun Jupiter, IIF 19 US 2, or any IIF US 2 affiliate. Equally important, the proposed ring-fencing provisions 20 will enable EPE to retain access to all of its own financial and physical assets and cash 21 flow so that EPE can properly conduct its business and remain viable, even in the case of 22 financial distress of Sun Jupiter, IIF US 2, or any IIF US 2 affiliate.
