  • 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.

  • The P-51 Mustang 1 the Inspiration, Design and Legacy Behind the P
    The P-51 Mustang 1 The Inspiration, Design and Legacy Behind the P-51 Mustang Matthew Hundt English 11 Ms. Morris Lake Mills High School February 25, 2013 The P-51 Mustang 2 The Inspiration, Design, and Legacy Behind the P-51 Mustang The year is 1940. Britain’s Royal Air Force (RAF), and later the American Army Air Force (AAF), were in dire need of a long-range escort fighter that would be capable of fending off the Luftwaffe, which “was a potent force” (Ludwig, 2003, p.94). In his 1982 work, Jablonski concluded that the only way for bombers to survive the hazardous trip to and from Germany was to have fighter escort that could accompany them round trip (p. 103). The response to that limitation was the P-51 Mustang, which became a major factor in the Allies’ triumph in the air war in the European Theater of Operations (ETO). During World War II, the British, due to extreme shortages of fighter aircraft, contacted North American Aviation (NAA), an American aircraft company, and asked them to design and subsequently manufacture an innovative fighter plane that would be superior to all German opposition. The ensuing plane, the P-51 Mustang, became the most revered and feared escort fighter of the war because of its extensive range, impressive aerodynamics that afforded maneuverability and speed, and the deadly armament it possessed (Jablonski, 1982, p. 97). The Mustang may be the most important and innovative fighter plane in history due to its impeccable combat record and sleek design. After France had been successfully defeated by Nazi Germany, the British realized that they needed to strengthen defense measures.

  • Representative John M. Rogers 60Th House District Sponsor Testimony
    Representative John M. Rogers 60th House District Sponsor Testimony - House Bill 687 Chairman Green, Vice Chair Patton, Ranking Member Sheehy, and members of the House Transportation and Public Safety Committee. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to testify today in support of House Bill 687, legislation that would honor one of our Nations most decorated World War II flying aces, by designating the bridge extending over the Grand River and into Fairport Harbor as the Colonel Donald Blakeslee Bridge. Col. Donald James Matthew Blakeslee was born in 1917 in Fairport Harbor, a small town of 3000 residents nestled along the Grand River and Lake Erie shorelines in my district in Lake County. As a young boy, Blakeslee became interested in flying after attending the Cleveland Air Races. In 1938 Blakeslee joined the Army Air Corps Reserve. In 1939, with the onset of World War II in the European Theater, the United States would remain on the sidelines for another 2 years. Eager to fight for the Allies, Blakeslee joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1939 and traveled to England. While serving with the No. 401 Squadron of the RCAF in the early stages of the war, Blakeslee would prove himself as a talented Spitfire pilot and a gifted flight leader, flying a large number of sorties over enemy territory and destroying or damaging multiple enemy aircraft. In August of 1942, Blakeslee became a flying “ace” after a destroying an aircraft during a raid in France. With the creation of the United States Army Air Force in 1942, Blakeslee decided to leave the RCAF and transfer back into an American unit.

This was due in large part to the sacrifi ces of scores of American patriots during World War Two. Forty years later, though, Wawro, now a professional photographer, is very well aware of the forces responsible for saving his family’s culture and heritage. He is passionate about fi nding ways to honor the men and women who gave Poland back to the Poles.

  • 1895-1970 – Non League 1970-1978 – Loi B Years
    History Friday, 01 January 2010 00:00 1895-1970 – Non league In 1895, the Catholic University Medical School Cecilia Street Football Club was founded, entering a team in the inaugural Leinster Junior League. The team's first match was against Bohemians B in October of 1895 and ended in a 2-0 defeat. November 1895 also saw the first match against Trinity with a result of 2-0 to Cathlolic University. 1898 Catholic University qualified for the Leinster Senior Cup for the first time - and we reached the semi-final. In 1908, the Catholic University merged with University College Dublin, and the team changed name with the merger. Things weren't quite settled yet, though, as we went through a series of grounds - in Sandymount, Cowper Road, Croydon Park, Fairview and Terenure before moving to Belfield Park in 1935 and now the UCD Bowl in 2008. In the meantime, though, success had been regular. In 1914, we won the inaugural Collingwood Cup - the Irish collegiate championships. The next year, UCD won the IFA Intermediate Cup, beating Portadown 2-1 in a replay in Dalymount Park. The first match had seen UCD draw in Windsor Park on St Patrick's Day. The competition was the 'IFA' Cup because in those days before independence, the IFA governed football over the whole island, and the competition involved teams from the whole island. The Intermediate Cup was one step below the Senior Cup in importance, so it was certainly of some significance. UCD were also involved in the first ever FAI Senior Cup in 1921, when they took on a non-league side at the time, Shamrock Rovers, in Windy Arbour, losing 6-2.
