"One offering outstanding services?" for ACER would have been good, but the term acer doesn't exist outside of Xwords.

"'Reach!'" for STICKEMUP is an oldie from westerns.  It was short for "reach for the sky" and was used when someone pointing a gun at another wanted to see empty hands.  This, and last week's two Lash Larue entries, must have been stumpers for those unqualified for AARP.

I never heard of ONI.
