Joe Taylor
Template:Afc maybe Joe Taylor, Jr. (born December 8, 1944 on the Isle of Wight, England, to Jenny Rose Taylor and Joseph Taylor).
Mr. Taylor is the subject of a Canadian federal court decision regarding citizenship of offspring of Canadian soldiers serving overseas.
His father and mother met during World War Two. He was born out of wedlock but his parents married in England on May 5, 1945. Jenny and Joe, Jr., were patriated to Canada during the great war-bride migration in 1946.
After the marriage failed, Jenny returned to England with her son in the late 1940s. They returned to England on a Canadian passport which Mr. Taylor continues to have in his possession.
Assuming that he was a Canadian citizen, Joe years later returned to Canada to retire, residing in Victoria, British Columbia. In 2002 Canadian officials informed Taylor that he has lost his citizenship on his 24th birthday by failing to fill in form requesting retention of his status. Immigration officials forced him to leave Canada.
On September 1, 2006, Mr. Justice J. Martineau of the Canadian Federal Court ordered that the Canadian government reinstate Joe Taylor as a Canadian citizen.
On September 29, 2006, the Canadian government appealed Justice Martineau's order to the Supreme Court of Canada.

Leeuwin Estate Winery
Geographically located at the south of the Margaret River region in the Western part of Australia, Leeuwin Estate has been founded in 1972 by Denis Horgan. Before taking a crucial decision to build a winery, Mr. Horgan had bought 300 hectares of land with the only intention to grow cattle. Consisting of two founding members; Denis Horgan and Robert Mondavi, the very first vinery was established in 1974, when the vineyards had been deep-ploughed, deep-ribbed, emptied of stones, planned, pegged, measured, marked and finally hand-planted. It was finally launched in 1978, due to the success of its trial vintage. (Adapted from Hutchings 2006)
In 1979, Leeuwin Estate reputation was propelled to the international level by the “Decanter Magazine” from the United Kingdom. The prestigious magazine had given its highest recommendation to the Leeuwin Art Series Chardonnay in a blind tasting done in 1980. At this point, it can be said that the Estate was not at the peak of its surprises, as their international reputation was further enhanced in 1985 through the staging of the very first Leeuwin concert, which featured the London Philharmonic Orchestra. According to Denis Horgan, “It was one of the most prestigious orchestras in the world.” (Leeuwin Estate Winery 2005). Incorporating a state-of-the-art technology with old world techniques to develop world class wines, Leeuwin Estate is one of the most advanced wineries which exist in the Southern Hemisphere today.
This business report has been requested by the managerial team of Leeuwin Estate, in order to analyse their current strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, which they are currently secured into. The report will also examine the areas where further effort will need to be laid emphasis on, so as to make the Leeuwin Estate a more profitable organization. The main purpose of this report is therefore to analyse the projects to be established, such as the proposal by the external business consultant for the purchase of the coach, as well as to determine the minimum price that can be quoted for the dinner, through a series of workings.
In pinpointing the different areas where more emphasis will have to be laid, the management team of Leeuwin Estate will be able to determine and to take appropriate measures which are required to operate in a more profitable framework, and this will benefit the Estate in a large extent in its long-run operations.

The Woodberry Hello
The Woodberry Hello is a term commonly used to describe male on male genital rubbing, often known as "The Princeton Rub" or "The Ivy League Rub" due to the history of these early schools having all-male students. It is a means of engaging in sexual activity for gay men without running the risk of sexually transmitted diseases. It is also commonly referred to as frottage The term was originally coined in Lexington, Massachusetts, where two gay men (whose names are not being used to protect their identities) met on Woodberry Rd., a small alley on the West side of Lexington. When the two men went to embrace, their penises touched, as they both happened to have erections at the time. One remarked to the other, "Well, that's one way to say hello!" Seeing the humor in the situation, they coined the phrase "The Woodberry Hello," and have spread its use well beyond Massachusetts. Now, it is a commonly used phrase in pop culture throughout the nation.

Von Ormy, Texas
Von Ormy is located in southwest Bexar County, Texas. It has been known as Von Ormy since the late 1880's. Prior to 1880, the community was known as Mann's Crossing, Garza's Crossing, Medina Crossing, and Paso de las Garzas. Von Ormy lies at the crossing point of the Medina River and the Spanish Camino Real.
Early History
Archeological digs by the University of Texas at San Antonio have revealed a pre-European settlement of Coahuiltecan indians in present-day Von Ormy. The settlement migrated along the bank of the Medina River between Garza's Crossing (Somerset Road) and Mann's Crossing (I-35).
European settlers arrived in the early 18th century, initially comprised of Franciscan missionaries and Spanish and mestizo soldiers. Canary Islands arrived soon after to settle the nearby town of Bejar, modern-day San Antonio. They began to raise cattle along the Medina River and were involved in the cattle trade bettwen Spanish Lousisiana and South Texas. Notable among these were the Ruiz and Casillas families. Early records of Von Ormians can be found in the baptismal, burial and marriage records of Mission San Jose and Mission Espada; they are usually listed as living "on the Medina" or simply "Medina."
By early 19th century, Von Ormy was an established community, serving as the crossing point of the Medina along the Camino Real. During the Mexican War for Independence, the "Battle of the Medina" was fought nearby. Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana served as a Lieutenant and became familiar with the area during this campaign.
The Texas Revolution and Afterwards
During the War of Texas Independence, Mexican General Santa Ana camped in Von Ormy prior to making his final march on the Alamo. The spot is marked by the Santa Ana Oak, a large red oak under which the General encamped. Blas Herrera, the "Paul Revere" of the Texas Revolution rode his horse from Von Ormy to San Antonio to warn the town of Santa Ana's approach. After the war, the doors to the Alamo were taken to the Herrera ranch were they stayed until the Daughters of the Republic of Texas brought them back to the Texas shrine during their restoration of the Alamo.
The Ruiz-Herrera family cemetery located in Von Ormy is the burial place of Blas Herrera and Jose Antonio Ruiz, who was alcalde, or mayor, of San Antonio during the seige of the Alamo.
Following the war, Texas poineer Enoch Jones built a fortified ranchhouse, locally known as "the castle." Jones soon sold the property to famous Texian spy "Deaf" Smith, who lived in the house for several years. In the late 1800's the "castle" was sold to Count Adolf Von Ormay, a Prussian count, for whom the city was named. Count Von Ormay arrived with his wife and servants from Prussia. He registered a cattle brand at the Bexar County Courthouse, but little else is known about him and he disappeared soon afterwards. The castle remained abandoned until the 1990s.
The first Catholic Church in Von Ormy was estabished by Marianist missionaries in 1836 on the Herrera Ranch. It soon became known as Santisima Trinidad Mission and was located at Garza's Crossing on the Medina River. Ruins of the Church can be seen today and the historic cemetary is being eroded into the River. Santisima Trinidad burned in the late 1890's and a new Church was built by Franciscan missionaries about a mile upstream along the new Laredo Highway's crossing of the Medina River in the 1910's. Against much local protest this rock Church was destroyed when the Laredo Highway was widened to created Interstate 35 during the 1930's. The current Church was built in the 1960's and renamed Sacred Heart of Jesus.
During the 1920's, a TB sanatarium was built in the city that subsequently killed 20 percent of the population, who were infected after working in the facility.
The Von Ormy school operated from the early 1900's until 1956 when it closed after the creation of the Southwest Independent School District.
The town's Post Office opened as GARZAS CROSSING 16 Jan 1872 under postmaster Willian. G. M. Samuel. It was discontinued 7 May 1874 and was re-established 10 Jun 1875 under postmaster Robert. J. Sibert. It was discontinued again 16 Aug 1875.
On 14 Jan 1879 the town's post office was opened under the name MANN'S CROSSING under postmaster Anton F. Krause and was discontinued 9 Nov 1880. It was again re-established under postmaster Branson Bywater on 13 Sep 1886.
On 4 Dec 1886 the post office changed its name to "VON ORMY" and the town has since been known as Von Ormy.
Recent History
In 1914 the town had two grocers, a general store, a cotton gin, and a population of 350. In 1946 the population was still 350. After World War II the community declined; in 1965 nine businesses and 100 residents were reported.

LiL' Mann
Lendell Jones II (born October 20th, 1988 in Chicago, Illinios) is an up-and-coming R&B singer/artist, dancer, and songwriter.
Early Life
LiL' Mann was influenced at a young age. Present to the sound of his parents' (Lendell Jones, Sr. and Ethel Jones) ideal music, he tuned his ear to artists like: Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye, Luther Vandross, Ronald Isley, and Michael Jackson. He then started to listen to those particular artists on his own and practice in front of family. Paying very close attention to his singing, his mom felt that it was time to take it to the next level.
Career
LiL' Mann began doing shows and performing at local venues within' his city of residence. But it wasn't until he attented a Patti LaBelle concert that he found out what performing was all about; he was allowed on stage to sing with the legend herself! Then and there he realized that singing was his true passion and that he wanted to do it for the rest of his life.
While continuing to do shows, LiL' Mann began experimenting with the use of words and rhymes. After having his father to show him how to structer a song (i.e. Intro, verse 1, chorus, etc.), he began writing whole songs. He then entered the studio with a local producer to record his very first song. After becoming accustomed to the recording process and consistently recording, he took his originals to the stage performing them at major events in Chicago such as: the Jet Magazine Showcase, the 23rd and 24th Annual Chicago Music Awards, the J Records Showcase (1st Place Winner), etc.
He shot a video for one of his original songs which was featured on his 1st demo entitled "Don't Go". The song itself received a decent amount of spins at local radio stations while the video got an emorous amount of play on local cable channels in Chicago.
After recieving a hefty amount of exposure and gaining notarity, he soon decided to go regional. He traveled to St. Louis, MO where he was featured on KMOX CBS News. Then he headed to Kaukauna, WI where he opened up for R&B group (which R&B Hitmaker R. Kelly is formerly a member of) Public Announcement. A year after returning home, he was a runner-up in the Fox News' 2006 Chicago Idol Contest.
Prior to that mere accomplishment, he had some other highlights such as: performing at the 14th Annual WGCI Music Seminar, winning his first Chicago Music Award for Most Talented Teen (after being nominated 3 stright years) at the 25th Annual Chicago Music Awards, performing at the Today's Black Woman's Expo (2006) along side R&B Talent Trey Songz, and being one of the midwest semi-finalists in the Disk Makers Independent Music World Series Contest which is most recent.
Currently
LiL' Mann recently completed his 2nd demo and is currently shopping it for a major record deal.

The Life
Music: Cy Coleman
Lyrics: Ira Gasman
Book: David Newman, Cy Coleman & Ira Gasman
The Life, a Tony Award winning musical which features music composed by Broadway legend Cy Coleman, tells the story of Queen, a prostitute who works 42nd Street to support her man, a Vietnam Veteran named Fleetwood. After years of selling her body on the street, Queen has finally managed to save enough money for her and Fleetwood to escape "The Life", but when she returns to her hotel room, she discovers that Fleetwood has broken into her savings and used it to pay off his drug debts. Meanwhile, Fleetwood and an opportunistic pimp named Jojo have befriended an attractive young girl named Mary who is fresh off the bus from Minnesota. When Fleetwood generously offers to let Mary stay with them, Queen tries to persuade the young girl to go home, but Fleetwood and Jojo have already begun to lure her in with promises of money and fame. That night, Queen is picked up by the police, and upon her release, she learns that while she was spending the night in jail, Fleetwood, Jojo, and Mary were having a threesome. Furious, Queen leaves Fleetwood and is soon taken in by a rival pimp named Memphis. It isn't long before Memphis reveals his true nature, threatening to kill both Queen and Fleetwood if she should ever attempt to leave him. When Queen tries to warn Fleetwood of these threats, Memphis beats her brutally. Queen has finally had enough. Sonja, a fellow prostitute, procures for Queen a bus ticket out of town, and she decides to say goodbye to "The Life" forever, but before she can board that bus, Queen is confronted by both Fleetwood and Memphis, and only one of the three will walk away alive.
The Life opened in the Spring of 1997 at the Ethel Barrymore Theater under the direction of Michael Blakemore. Although the production closed on June 7, 1998, after a run of just over 450 performances, it had already managed to win 3 awards for "Best Musical" of 1997, including the Drama Desk Award, the Outer Critics Award, and the Drama League Award.

Peridot Yoshikuni (Yoshida)
About Peridot
Peridot Yoshida is the main character of a fan-based Tokyo Mew Mew series called "Kougo Myǘu Myǘus" (English title: Alternate Mew Mews) Her personality is somewhat like Ichigo Momomiya, the main character of the Anime/Manga, Tokyo Mew Mew. Peridot is very 'Leaderlike' in some ways, but doesn't really want to be the leader. Her 'friends', the other Alternate mew mews, (Except Akishi Yoshikuni) think that she's trying to take over, so they pick on her for it by 'overpowering' her in any way possible.
Quick Info: Name: Peridot Ai Yoshida(Yoshikuni when she marries Aki) Age: 16 at beginning of manga, unknown age at end
}Peridot's Likes and Dislikes
Likes: Cake, Oreos, Shrimp and other things that cats like. (Yes, even catnip.)
Dislikes: Pikachu (From Pokémon, copyright Nintendo and gamefreak), Very spicy food
Her dislike for Pikachu is very strong. She hates this because he's the main character in Pokémon, meaning that he gets all the attention. This reminds her that she has to be the leader, so nobody will leave her alone, in this respect she gets too much attention. It's not a big deal to any of the other characers, but Peridot tends to over-react.
Her love for Cake and Oreos is pretty much rediculus. It's unknown why she likes these things so much, but she does. If oreos or cake are given to her, she will be extremely happy. But, she almost fears the "Uh-Oh" oreos. They are oreos that are opposite of the real ones. There is chocolate cream and the cookie part is vinilla. (Oreos and "Uh-Oh" Oreos are copyright Nabisco)

Other Characters and Peridot
Alot of the other characters included in Kougo Myǘu Myǘu think that Peridot is nothing but hyper, wierd and....stupid. Most of them don't really take her all that seriously, and CAN be mean or cruel to her. Here's a quick rundown with each character:

BadPong
BadPong is a new sport that has been created by two Australian teenagers, Alastair McLeod and Lachlan Morris. Upon the creation of the sport it has rapidly gained popularity and started somewhat of a cult following, particularly in Cairns on the north-eastern coast of Australia.
The sport is a mixture of Table Tennis or Ping Pong and Badminton, hence the name 'BadPong'. The game follows the same structure as a game of ping pong however badminton racquets are used and the playing table is larger than that of a ping pong table. The game is exceptionally difficult to master as it's creators have but an hours practise should be enough to allow anybody to have a decent game. Due to the use of badminton racquets there is less control when hitting the ball. A careful and calculated approach is appropriate when playing the game.
The sport of BadPong is still in its early stages but its creators are hopeful for the sport to catch on in the mainstream public. Creator Alastair McLeod stated recently, "I really hope BadPong will catch on, it is a sickly sick game and I think the public deserves to play a sick and safe game."

CRISTAL BASCHET
The principle of a glass bow and a metal rod fixed to a heavy metal block, which could be seen in laboratories during the 18th century but had never been used before to make a musical instrument, was revived in 1952 by Bernard and Francois BASCHET, who also invented the inflatable guitar and an educational instrumentarium.
The Cristal Baschet (not Cristal Bachet, but sometimes called Crystal Organ and in English, Crystal Baschet) is composed of 54 chromatically tuned glass rods, rubbed with wet fingers. So, it is close to the Glassharmonica. But in the Cristal Baschet, the vibration of the glass is passed on to the heavy block of metal by a metal stem whose variable length determines the frequency (the note). Amplification is obtained by fiberglass cones fixed on wood and by a tall cut out metal part, in the shape of a flame. "Whiskers", placed under the instrument, to the right, increase the sound power of high-pitched sounds.
Born at the same time as «musique concrete» (Pierre SCHAEFFER, Pierre HENRY…), electro-acoustic music and early synthesizers (MOOG…), the Cristal Baschet is their close relative, but completely acoustic, without any electric amplifying-device. The BASCHET brothers’ aim was to get closer to the new tones born in the early fifties.
REPERTOIRE
The Cristal Baschet is used in a lot of fields : ballet-music, songs, movie music ("The March of Penguins" played by Thomas Bloch), theater-music, jazz, rock (Tom Waits, played by Thomas Bloch), improvisation, tales, contemporary music.
Among other composers, we can mention : Francois Bayle, Thomas Bloch, Michel Deneuve, Luc Ferrari, Guy Reibel, Etienne Rolin, Toru Takemitsu, Michel Redolfi...

Demarini Sports
Demarini Sports, Inc. is a company owned by Amer Sports that manufactures baseball and softball bats.
Demarini Sports was founded in 1989 by Ray Demarini and Mike Eggiman. Their first major breakthrough was the production of the first multi-wall bat, which uses two seperate walls of metal, which Demarini claims increases the size of the sweet spot. Some tests have concluded that balls hit by a double-wall bat travel faster than one hit by a bat with only one wall.
