Question: In 1997 the Bombay Sapphire brand was sold to a company that employs how many people?
Context: Habeeb Opeyemi Kazeem better known by his stage name Caze Montana and a few other nicknames like Big Caze or Caze Rozay and Caze Bombay because his favorite gin Bombay sapphire, is a Nigerian entertainer, songwriter and musician.  Caze recently put together the record label Fresh Movement Incorporates Music(FMINC) with his friend and manager 2sleazy. The 1993 Bombay bombings were a series of 12 bomb explosions that took place in Mumbai, India, then known as Bombay, on 12 March 1993.  The coordinated attacks, carried out in revenge for earlier riots that killed many people, were the most destructive bomb explosions in Indian history.  This was first of its kind serial-bomb-blasts across the world.  The single-day attacks resulted in 257 fatalities and 717 injuries.  Thirteen blasts were announced by the then Chief Minister of Maharashtra Sharad Pawar, the fictitious one in a Muslim quarter of the city, to prevent the events from taking on a communal hue. The Star of Bombay is a 182-carat (36.4-g) cabochon-cut star sapphire originating from Sri Lanka.  The violet-blue gem was given to silent film actress Mary Pickford by her husband, Douglas Fairbanks.  She bequeathed it to the Smithsonian Institution.  It is the namesake of the popular alcoholic beverage Bombay Sapphire, a British-manufactured gin. The El Ayyat train disaster happened at 02:00 on the morning of 20 February 2002 in an eleven-carriage passenger train travelling from Cairo to Luxor.  A cooking gas cylinder exploded in the fifth carriage, creating a fire which engulfed seven third-class carriages, reducing them almost to cinders.  The initial number of dead given by officials at the time was 383, all Egyptians.  However, considering that seven carriages were burnt to the ground, and each carriage was packed with at least double the maximum carrying capacity of 150, this number is considered by many people to be a great underestimate.  The dubious nature of the given death toll lies with the absence of a full passenger list; accounting for those missing was almost impossible at the time.  In addition, the fire was so intense and the carriages so badly burned that many corpses had been reduced to ash.  As there was no means of communication between the driver and the rear carriages, the driver did not know of the fire until about two hours after it had begun, resulting in many people, attempting to flee from the overcrowded carriages, jumping to their death.  Some important Egyptians have commentated that the official number of 383 dead is grossly inaccurate and was an attempt to lessen the damage done to the reputation of the government.  Many people consider a number of about 1000 deaths to be more accurate. DataEase is a relational database management system (RDBMS), and is considered a rapid application development tool for developing relationally-organized, data-intensive software applications for personal computers.  DataEase was created in the early 1980s by software developers Arun Gupta and Joseph Busch.  The first version of the software was released in 1981 by Software Solutions Inc.  The principals sold the company to Sapphire International Corporation of the United Kingdom in 1991.  Sapphire continues to develop and market the product.  There are two distinct product arcs in DataEase' history: DataEase for DOS and DataEase for Windows. Bombay Sapphire is a brand of gin that was first launched in 1987 by IDV.  In 1997 Diageo sold the brand to Bacardi.  Its name originates from gin's popularity in India during the British Raj and the sapphire in question is the Star of Bombay on display at the Smithsonian Institution.  Bombay Sapphire is marketed in a flat-sided, sapphire-coloured bottle that bears a picture of Queen Victoria on the label. Although spinal cord injury (SCI) often causes sexual dysfunction, many people with SCI are able to have satisfying sex lives.  Physical limitations acquired from SCI affect sexual function and sexuality in broader areas, which in turn has important effects on quality of life.  Damage to the spinal cord impairs its ability to transmit messages between the brain and parts of the body below the level of the lesion.  This results in lost or reduced sensation and muscle motion, and affects orgasm, erection, ejaculation, and vaginal lubrication.  More indirect causes of sexual dysfunction include pain, weakness, and side effects of medications.  Psycho-social causes include depression and altered self-image.  Many people with SCI have satisfying sex lives, and many experience sexual arousal and orgasm.  People with SCI employ a variety of adaptations to help carry on their sex lives healthily, by focusing on different areas of the body and types of sexual acts.  Neural plasticity may account for increases in sensitivity in parts of the body that have not lost sensation, so people often find newly sensitive erotic areas of the skin in erogenous zones or near borders between areas of preserved and lost sensation. HCS "Bombay, later HMS "Bombay and HMS "Ceylon", was a teak-built fifth rate, 38-gun wooden warship built in the Bombay Dockyard for the Honourable East India Company (HEIC) and launched in 1793.  The Royal Navy purchased her in 1805 and renamed her HMS "Bombay".  She served with the Royal Navy under that name until 1 July 1808, when she became HMS "Ceylon".  She was sold at Malta in 1857 and broken up in 1861. The Niles Canyon ghost story is the Northern California variation on the vanishing hitchhiker archetype.  There are many different variations of this story depending on whom you ask.  All stories include a girl being involved in some sort of motorized vehicle accident on February 26 (year often changed).  One variation of the story includes a girl being involved in a car crash on Niles Canyon road (off the 680 freeway in Sunol, California) on the way to her prom.  The girl died on impact and to this day is said to haunt Niles Canyon road every February 26.  The tale of the haunting goes that people traveling along Niles Canyon road (now Highway 84) on the night of February 26 will see a normal-looking high school-aged girl walking along the road in a prom dress (many people have said it is white).  People traveling along the road (mostly those traveling alone) have said to have stopped and offered the girl a ride.  She accepts the ride, giving the driver an address across the bridge (either Dumbarton or Bay Bridge depending on the storyteller).  Once the driver gets to the beginning of the bridge, the girl will disappear.  Sometimes people have gone to the address to find that a girl many years ago matching that description once lived there.  Today, many people will travel along this treacherous pitch black road in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the Niles Canyon ghost.
