His family, the Bishops, wanted to feed him the best food possible, so they searched for food with high-quality ingredients, but decided to create something even better – natural pet food for dogs and cats with nutritious ingredients, real meat first, and some of the highest standards in the industry. Since Day 1, BLUE's team of veterinarians and animal nutritionists has carefully selected high-quality, natural ingredients and upheld its True BLUE Promise to dog and cat pet parents – real meat as the first ingredient with NO chicken (or poultry) by-product meals, NO corn, wheat or soy, and NO artificial flavors or preservatives. The result is a portfolio of high-quality, natural food and treats that both dogs and cats love. This simple idea: 'Love them like family. Feed them like family.' lives on today in every Blue Buffalo recipe.

TED Danson portrays Michael, an afterlife "architect" who designs the Good Place neighborhood where the main characters of the show reside. OBI (58A: ___-Wan Kenobi) Our Star Wars friend OBI-Wan Kenobi is making back-to-back puzzle appearances, as we saw this same clue yesterday. PIG LATIN (61A: Anguagelay okenspay ikelay isthay) Well, this is fun! (Although getting spell check to accept the spelling of these words was a bit of a challenge...) In case your PIG LATIN is rusty, this clue says, "Language spoken like this." GOBLET SQUAT (3D: Exercise done holding one dumbbell with both hands) A GOBLET SQUAT is a variation of a SQUAT in which a weight is held in front of the chest while performing the SQUAT. GOBLET SQUATs work your upper body muscles as well as your leg muscles.

The word RAISE in the title gave me a good idea that the theme would be found in the tops of vertical theme answers. It's nice that each GLASS is located such that it is being "raised" to the top of the grid. Thank you, Stella, for this enjoyable puzzle.

Under the terms of the amended agreement, Bluebird stockholders can elect to receive either the original offer of $3.00 per share in cash plus a contingent value right (CVR) of $6.84 per share in cash payable upon achievement of a net sales milestone or $5.00 per share in cash.

In May, Carlyle and SK Capital received all required regulatory approvals to complete the transaction, and all parties expect the transaction to be consummated promptly following the successful completion of the ongoing tender offer. In March, Bluebird received an unsolicited, non-binding written proposal from Ayrmid Ltd. Ayrmid proposed to acquire Bluebird for an upfront cash payment of $4.50 per share and a one-time contingent value right of $6.84 per share payable upon achieving a net sales milestone. In April, the company said that after three weeks of engagement, including a timeline extension, Ayrmid did not submit a binding proposal to acquire Bluebird and had not obtained the necessary financing.
