SF writer Cory Doctorow calls science fiction " perhaps the most social of all literary genres ", and states, " Science fiction is driven by organized fandom, volunteers who put on hundreds of literary conventions in every corner of the globe, every weekend of the year.

In 2005, That's So Raven became the network's highest-rated series since the network's move to basic cable ; as well as being the first original series to beat the 65-episode limit ( the highly controversial programming rule implemented in 1998, had guaranteed any original series would end after 65 episodes to prevent production costs from increasing ; however this rule is no longer enforced ); the series eventually hit 100 episodes, becoming the channel's longest-running original series until October 2011 and became the first to spawn a spin-off, Cory in the House.

Boy Meets World is an American television sitcom that chronicles the events and everyday life-lessons of Cory Matthews ( played by Ben Savage ), a Philadelphian who grows up from a young boy to a married man.

His relationship with his older brother Eric becomes confusing as Eric's constant obsession with girls is foreign to Cory and he becomes more protective of his little sister, Morgan.

Cory and Shawn's friendship endures real tests for the first time, and Cory must often choose between doing what Shawn wants him to do and what is best for Shawn and their friendship.

Although they initially view Mr. Turner as cool, they soon realize that he is a teacher first, hence why Cory called him " Feeny with an earring.

Cory tries at some points to begin a relationship with Topanga, but this is mostly because he does not want to be left out of the dating game.

Cory endures several tests of character this season-everything from being credited with a great deed which he did not deserve, to being insistently pursued by another girl while he is with Topanga.

Cory, upset about the break-up, gets drunk and is arrested, along with Shawn.

Topanga is accepted to Yale, but Cory does not want her to leave him.

Topanga is convinced that she is doing what is best for herself and for Cory, until her mother comes to explain everything, and tell her that love is worth the risk.

Shawn is more of a trouble maker than Cory, and is also more popular.

* Eric Randall Matthews ( Will Friedle ) is the older brother of Cory.

Early on in the show Eric is portrayed as suave and popular, this contrasts with Cory, who has trouble finding his niche in school.

Cory continues that it was such an insiders ' term that " an advertisement for a roommate can actually ask for a gay youth, but could not possibly call for a homosexual.

After this occurred, Shawn lived briefly with Cory and his parents but soon figures out that it was just not the right fit for him.

Although Cory was hurt, he soon realized Shawn set the whole thing up so he could unite Cory and Topanga and make Cory confess his feelings for her.

After finding out in the season finale that Cory feels estranged from him, Eric invites Cory along for the ride.

Cory and Topanga get married and move into a shabby apartment for married couples on campus.

From season 2 onward, Cory openly expresses his feelings for Topanga.

Neither the existence of her sister nor her crush on Eric are ever mentioned again, and Topanga ’ s only romantic relationship for the duration of the show is with Cory.

In the end, she and Cory, along with Shawn and Eric move to New York for an internship for which she was accepted.

In the final moments of the series, Cory, Topanga, Shawn, and Eric come to his classroom for one last " lesson ".

The two shared a kiss that led to Cory and Topanga breaking up for a portion of the fifth season.

Sopinka, concurring only in result, registers his disagreement with the plurality's reasoning that Section 2 of the Old Age Security Act is not discriminatory, and endorses the Section 15 analysis performed by Cory.

In his Section 15 analysis, Cory disputes that this was a case revolving around the concept of " adverse effect discrimination ", that is a neutral law which discriminates against a group only by the effect of the same application.

To be discriminatory within the meaning of Section 15 of the Charter, Cory argues that the distinction only has to be made on an enumerated or analogous ground protected by Section 15.
