Cardiff Council Cyngor Caerdydd Executive
CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD EXECUTIVE BUSINESS MEETING: 3 NOVEMBER 2011 WORLD BOXING CONVENTION 2013 (WBC) REPORT OF CHIEF OFFICER (CITY DEVELOPMENT) AGENDA ITEM: 11 PORTFOLIO : TRANSPORT & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Reason for this Report 1. To enable Cardiff to host the World Boxing Council Convention 2013 and approve appropriate budgets to assist in developing the event programme. 2. To attract a World Title bout and Convention which will have an economic impact of up to £3.2m in the city economy 3. To enhance Cardiff’s reputation as an international sports capital and to generate significant global media exposure to promote the city on an international stage. Background 4. Over the last decade Cardiff has built an international reputation for the successful delivery of high profile sporting events, including; the Rugby World Cup; the FA Cup and Heineken Cup Finals, the Ashes Test and the Ryder Cup. Alongside this the city has developed a world-class sporting and visitor destination infrastructure. In recognition of this Cardiff was recently awarded the status of European Capital of Sport. 5. It is recognised that this programme of major sporting events has led to significant benefits for the city economy, including: attracting tourists and the additional consumer spend they bring into the local economy; world- wide media coverage and profile; increased civic and national pride and encouraging increased participation in sporting activities. 6. The World Boxing Council Night of the Champions and World Boxing Convention therefore represent significant opportunities for Cardiff to build on its established platform and to expand into a new events market, with the ultimate aim of becoming a recognised location for major boxing events. -

Yeaton Family Register Report
Yeaton Full Register Report Perhaps, if the origin of the above coat of arms is found, we can find the English origins and ancestry of the Yeaton family. Given the fact that the Yeaton men maintained the “family business” of fishing for many generations and the fact that several families which settled in the New Castle area were from Devonshire, England, I suspect that the family is from the Devonshire or Cornwall area of that country. Yeaton is an “old name” in the Portsmouth, Rockingham co., New Hampshire area. Members of this family can also be found in the records of New Castle, Rochester and other neighboring towns to Portsmouth on the eastern coast of New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Another branch settled in the Essex co., MA area, soon migrating west and south to Middlesex co., MA & the Boston, Suffok do., MA area. Until very recently, research on this family was extremely difficult. The original emigrants settled first in New Castle, Rockingham co. and Isles of Shoals area of New Hampshire and the rugged Cape Elizabeth area of Maine. They were fishermen, probably illiterate and considered the official recording of births deaths and marriages an unimportant duty. Savage speculated that the name probably originates via a place name in England. (Probably referring to Yeadon, a town just northwest of Leeds, next to the airport. It seems highly unlikely, but not impossible, that the family would have migrated to America from that location in England at that particular time.) He further asserted that the first Yeaton(s) probably arrived in the area after 1700, since the name is not found in Colonial Records before that date. -

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE More than 500 guests raise an impressive $545,000 net at the West Island Palliative Care Residence’s 19th Annual Valentine’s Ball Political, sports, media and entertainment figures among those showing their support at the West Island’s premier social event of the season KIRKLAND, Quebec, February 13, 2018 – An impressive $545,000 net was raised Friday evening, February 9th, at the West Island’s premier social event of the season – the West Island Palliative Care Residence‘s 19th annual black-tie Valentine’s Ball , held at the Pavilion-sur-le-lac of the Château Vaudreuil. With more than 500 in attendance, the Ball once again welcomed an array of guests who provide valuable ongoing support to the Residence, many of whom were political, sports, media and entertainment figures. Special guests included Jean-Marc Vallée, well-known award-winning Quebec film director, most recently honoured with an Emmy Award for Outstanding Directing for the HBO miniseries Big Little Lies; Anthony Calvillo, Montreal Alouettes quarterback legend, inducted into Canadian Football Hall of Fame; and Otis Grant, former WBO Middleweight Champion of the World. Joining local federal, provincial and municipal politicians was Quebec Health Minister Dr. Gaétan Barrette, whose ministry provides approximately one-third of the Residence’s funding, the balance coming from the community and fundraising events such as the Valentine’s Ball. Also present were four Quebec ministers: Martin Coiteux, Geoffrey Kelley, Carlos Leitão and Kathleen Weil, along with local federal MPs Frank Baylis (Pierrefonds-Dollard) and Francis Scarpaleggia (Lac-Saint-Louis) and the mayors of Kirkland, Pointe-Claire, Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Senneville and the Montreal borough of Pierrefonds/Roxboro. -
Grant Retains Title with Masterly Chess Match by Jack Todd, the Gazette
Learning today. Leading tomorrow. Notable Vanier Alumni Grant Retains Title with Masterly Chess Match By Jack Todd, The Gazette June 19, 2005 The ovation for Otis Grant before last night's fight against Ghana's Charles Adamu was long and loud. Late in his career and wearing the scars of the horrifying accident that almost took his life, Grant has finally earned the respect of Montreal fight fans. Which is not the same as saying that he can pull them in like Dave Hilton Jr. or Stephane Ouellet. Trouble is, boxing fans don't like chess matches. Last night Grant gave them one masterly chess match, broken by a single clap of thunder - but by the 11th round, some in the crowd were hooting and hollering, wanting blood, wanting a knockout, wanting something more. At the end, he had a unanimous decision - 116-112 on one judge's card, 117-111 on another, and 115- 112. His title - the WBC International super-middleweight crown - is secure, along with his status as the WBC's No. 5 contender, waiting in the wings with everyone else for German champion Markus Beyer to fight some genuine challengers. "I've been in this business a long time," Grant said. "Long enough to know that you can't listen to the crowd. You have to fight your fight, take care of business and do what you came to do." Learning today. Leading tomorrow. Notable Vanier Alumni Despite some confusing grousing from the Adamu camp, Grant said, "if this guy thinks he was robbed, by no stretch of the imagination was he robbed. -

Major Convocation Award Descriptions and Criteria Joan Baker : Joan Baker was a parent, a volunteer, a Home & School member and she eventually became the Community Office coordinator at LPHS. Joan was responsible for the peer tutoring program, mentoring program, grad leaf raking, the Terry Fox run, Senior Citizen visits, Convocation, and many more community and volunteer activities throughout the school.

Joan retired in 2010 to pursue her love of travel, however she still offers her time and expertise to LPHS this day. This award is granted to someone who is compassionate and caring and has shown outstanding leadership qualities, dependability and commitment to our school. Peter Bolle Alumni Award : This award is given to a student who best exemplifies the quality of school spirit in honour of Peter Bolle, president of the Alumni. In 2010, a small group of Lindsay Place alumni met to discuss the organization of the Lindsay Place High School Fiftieth Anniversary to be held in October, 2012. Organizing the reunion was upmost in the committee members’ minds but one of the main goals was for the alumni to leave a legacy. Peter Bolle, who graduated in 1980, had already started this legacy in 2005 when he sought permission to create an Alumni Scholarship for a graduating student. In 2010, along with help from Mr.Peter Nauth, the Foundation was created to raise funds for Lindsay Place High School and its students. Their commitment to the school involves (1) providing funds to cover tutorial costs for several students, (2) undertaking a major project each year and (3) providing scholarships for three graduating students. -

Rhodes: Rabchenko Dangerous – but Brook Can Stop Him
RHODES: RABCHENKO DANGEROUS – BUT BROOK CAN STOP HIM Ryan Rhodes knows first-hand the threat that Sergey Rabchenko poses to Kell Brook as they clash for the WBC Silver Super- Welterweight title on Saturday night at the FlyDSA Arena in Sheffield live on Sky Sports – but expects Brook to shine on his debut at 154lbs. Sheffield star Rhodes met the Belarussian in June 2012 for the European Super-Welterweight title in Manchester, with Rabchenko stopping Rhodes with a body shot at the end of the seventh round. Rabchenko now meets Rhodes’ fellow Steel City son Brook in ‘The Special One’s’ first fight at him new weight, and the ‘Spice Boy’ expects his fellow Ingle Gym product to prevail but says Rabchenko is a dangerous customer. “Rabchenko is a good fighter,” said Rhodes. “He’s strong, got a bit of a dig on him and when he’s on song he’s a handful. He was on a bit of a high when I boxed him, Ricky Hatton was looking after him at the time and was keeping him active. “Sergey can take a shot as well. I caught him with a big shot in the third round and his legs dipped but credit to him – he rode the storm and ended up recovering to get the win. “I was 95 years old and in my 293rd fight when I fought Rabchenko, so Kell has nothing to worry about! I was coming to the latter stages of my career. There wasn’t much in the fight, it was back and forth and then he caught me with a sickening body shot.
