Villiers Engineering was a manufacturer of motorcycles and cycle parts, and an engineering company based in Villiers Street, Wolverhampton, England.
Early History
In the 1890s John Marston's Sunbeam had become extremely successful, by relying on high quality of production and finish. But Marston was dissatisfied with the pedals on his machines, which he bought in. In 1890 he dispatched his son Charles to the US on a selling trip, but included in his instructions that Charles must discuss pedal engineering with Pratt and Whitney in Hartford, Connecticut and come back with a high class pedal and the machinery for making it. Charles said that the Villiers Engineering Co. was "the ultimate fruit" of his trip to the US, being impressed by the production system and the labour saving devices. He pointed out that "it was not possible to develop these at Sunbeamland, which had long been working on another plan, but it was possible to start them in a new factory".
As a result of the tour, in 1898, John Marston bought a small Japanning works based in Villiers Street, Wolverhampton. Under the direction of Charles, the company made cycle parts for the Sunbeam company. As the factory was producing more parts than Sunbeam required, it sold components to other manufacturers.
Villiers is first mentioned in 1191 as in Vilar. In 1308 it was mentioned as de Villier.
Geography
Villiers had an area, as of 2009, of 10.6 square kilometers (4.1sqmi). Of this area, 4.7km2 (1.8sqmi) or 44.5% is used for agricultural purposes, while 5.61km2 (2.17sqmi) or 53.1% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 0.27km2 (0.10sqmi) or 2.6% is settled (buildings or roads) and 0.02km2 (4.9 acres) or 0.2% is unproductive land.
Of the built up area, housing and buildings made up 1.5% and transportation infrastructure made up 0.9%. Out of the forested land, 49.4% of the total land area is heavily forested and 3.7% is covered with orchards or small clusters of trees. Of the agricultural land, 8.3% is used for growing crops and 17.1% is pastures and 18.8% is used for alpine pastures.
Kenneth is an Englishgiven name and surname. The name is an Anglicised form of two entirely different Gaelic personal names: Cainnech and Cináed. The modern Gaelic form of Cainnech is Coinneach; the name was derived from a byname meaning "handsome", "comely". The name Cinaed is partly derived from the Celtic*aidhu, meaning "fire". A short form of Kenneth is Ken. A pet form of Kenneth is Kenny.
After a long shift, nurse Ana returns to her suburban neighborhood and her husband, Luis. Caught up in a date night, they miss an emergency news bulletin. The next morning, a neighborhood girl enters their bedroom and kills Luis, who immediately reanimates as a zombie and attacks Ana. She flees in her car but crashes and passes out. Upon waking, Ana joins with Police Sergeant Kenneth Hall, salesman Michael, petty criminal Andre and his pregnant wife Luda. They break into a nearby mall and are attacked by a zombified security guard, who bites Luda. They are confronted by three mall guards — C.J., Bart, and Terry. The guards make them surrender their weapons in exchange for refuge. They split into groups to secure the mall and then go to the roof. They see another survivor, Andy, stranded in his gun store across the parking lot.
Kenneth Battelle (April 19, 1927 – May 12, 2013), more usually known as Kenneth, was a leading New York hairdresser from the 1950s until his death. Sometimes described as the world's first celebrity hairdresser, Kenneth achieved international fame for creating Jacqueline Kennedy's bouffant in 1961. He counted Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, and many of America's most high-profile socialites such as Brooke Astor and Happy Rockefeller among his clients. In 1961 he became the first, and only, hairdresser to win a Coty Award.
Early life and education
Kenneth Everette Battelle was born in Syracuse, New York, the eldest son with four younger sisters. His father was a shoe salesman, who divorced his mother when Kenneth was 12, leaving their son to support his family through cooking and washing dishes, selling beer and working as an elevator operator. Aged 17, he joined the navy for eighteen months, after which he studied liberal arts at Syracuse University for six months (which was all his G.I. Bill funding allowed for) before dropping out when the funds ran out. After seeing an advertisement for the Wanamaker Academy of Beauty in New York that promised graduates $100-a-week jobs, he studied there for 6 months, supporting himself by working for a restaurant and playing the piano in a local bar. After this, he studied further at the Marinello Academy of Beauty Culture in Syracuse, before finding a job at the Starlet Beauty Bar salon opposite the Greyhound bus station.

The story of George Villiers and King James I & VI reads like a stylish, sexy and scandalous historic drama series. It probably hasn’t been made into one before because, until recently, Hollywood wasn’t too keen on portraying homosexual characters and relationships, authentically. However, the new Starz series, Mary and George promises to finally introduce the wider world to the dashing country commoner who won the heart of a king and was raised so high he had no where to go but plummeting back to earth. The series emphasizes George’s relationship with his ambitions mother, Mary Beaumont who encouraged and facilitated his royal seduction. So let’s travel back to the Stuart court of England and meet the real Mary and G...

Duke Of Buckingham: George Villiers His Life, Loves and Legacy
George Villiers 1st Duke of Buckingham, His Life, Loves and Legacy. The Duke of Buckingham was a very controversial historical English figure. Handsome and ambitious, he rose with astonishing speed through the ranks of the aristocracy yet, he was generally regarded with suspicion and dislike by the rest of the court. Villiers was the last in a succession of handsome young favourites of the monarchy on whom King James I and Charles I lavished affection and patronage. He also had what can only be described as a very sketchy political and military record. Subsequent events showed that he was a symptom rather than the cause of a malfunctioning English state.
