Coordinates: 37°25′59.2″N 121°53′50.9″W / 37.433111°N 121.897472°W / 37.433111; -121.897472 El Torito (Spanish for "the little bull") is a Mexican restaurant chain, consisting of 69 restaurants which are located primarily in California. Some of the restaurants are located in Oregon, Arizona, and overseas. El Torito is one of several Mexican cuisine restaurant chains operated by Real Mex Restaurants.
Founded in 1954, El Torito claims to be "a pioneer in the California full service Mexican casual dining restaurant segment."
History
El Torito was founded by Larry J. Cano, who gives the restaurant credit for popularizing the margarita in the United States. Cano served several tours in Europe and in Korea, got a business degree and worked as a bartender. When the bar's owner died, the widow asked Cano if he wanted it.
The bar itself Cano felt was popular with veterans but had a limited lifespan. He brought his own Mexican cooking to the bar and it became the first El Torito, named - theoretically - based on the large clay bowl with a bull painted on it. Cano hired local Mexican cooks and asked them to cook genuine Mexican food with an eye for mainstream. Success was not immediate and for a time Cano was evicted from his home and lived in the restaurant.
El Torito (CD-ROM standard)
The El Torito Bootable CD Specification is an extension to the ISO 9660 CD-ROM specification. It is designed to allow a computer to boot from a CD-ROM. It was announced in November 1994 and first issued in January 1995 as a joint proposal by IBM and BIOS manufacturer Phoenix Technologies.
Boot modes
According to the El Torito specification, a 32-bit CPU PC BIOS will search for boot code on an ISO 9660 CD-ROM. The standard allows for booting in two different modes. Either in hard disk emulation when the boot information can be accessed directly from the CD media, or in floppy emulation mode where the boot information is stored in an image file of a floppy disk, which is loaded from the CD and then behaves as a virtual floppy disk. This is useful for computers built before about 1999, which were designed to boot only from floppy drive. For modern computers the "no emulation" mode is generally the more reliable method.
The BIOS will assign a BIOS drive number to the CD drive. The drive number (for INT 13h) assigned is any of 80 (hard disk emulation), 00 (floppy disk emulation) or an arbitrary number if the BIOS should not provide emulation. Emulation allows older operating systems to be booted from a CD, by making it appear to them as if they were booted from a hard or floppy disk.
Mascarita Dorada
Mascarita Dorada (Spanish: Little Golden Mask; born February 19, 1982), is the ring name of a Mexican Luchador enmascarado, or masked professional wrestler, who worked in the Mini-Estrella division, comparable to Midget professional wrestling, currently signed to WWE under the name El Torito (Spanish for The Little Bull).
From 2000 until 2007, he worked under the name Mascarita Sagrada in Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), taking over after the original Mascarita Sagrada left AAA. In 2007 he moved from AAA to join Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) he changed name to Mascarita Dorada. After leaving CMLL in 2011, he began wrestling for El Hijo del Santo under the ring name Mascarita Plateada, while also returning to AAA under the Mascarita Dorada ring name. He is a former two-time Mexican National Mini-Estrella Champion and co-holder of the AAA Mascot Tag Team Championship along with Máscara Sagrada. Mascarita Dorada's real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico where their private lives are kept a secret from wrestling fans.

El Dorado
by: Elton JohnOur glorious city
Was built by the divinities, by gods
Who saw fit to bestow
The gift of a paradise
Peaceful and harmonious upon
Us mere mortals below
And made El Dorado
The magnificent and golden
One thousand years ago
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
But all this was granted
For only one millenium
I know my legacy is to fulfill
My promise to all my people
Who have trusted me, the gods
Will approve of us still
Preserve El Dorado
The magnificent and golden
And I believe they will
El Dorado
El Dorado
El Dorado
The mountains so high and waters deep
Are her disguise
Her secrets are safe from foreign hands and eyes forever
Preserve El Dorado
The magnificent and golden
And I believe they will
El Dorado
El Dorado
