COLWYN BAY WAR MEMORIAL
World War 1 & 2 & Korea - Detailed information
World War 2 & Korea - Bill Bagnall
The main Colwyn Bay war memorial was moved to Queen's Gardens, Conway Road, Colwyn Bay in 1964 when the Council Offices closed; it was originally erected in front of the Town Hall originally. The memorial takes the form of a soldier standing at ease, left foot forward resting on a rock atop an Ashlar Pylon plinth with a four stepped base. The inscription is on the front face of the plinth and the names on panels to sides. The memorial is flanked by cast iron lamp standards to either side. Below the name panels are friezes that depict soldiers marching to war ("military"); the deck of an armed merchant ship ("naval"); returning soldiers & sailors, some wounded, and nurses ("the homecoming"). There are 174 names listed for World War 1, 38 for World War 2 and one for Korea. The scultor was John Cassidy of Manchester, the engineer and surveyor was Mr W.J. Dunning from Colwyn Bay Council and the bronze founders were H. H. Martyn & Co. Ltd., of Cheltenham. The foundation stone was fashioned by two monumental masons, F. M. & H. Nuttall of Manchester and the local firm of Davies & Son. The memorial fund collected £1,000. The memorial was unveiled on Saturday 11th November 1922 at 10:30 a.m. by The Right Hon. Lord Colwyn. The names for World War 1, World War 2 and Korea have been transcribed here. Close to the main memorial is a further memorial in the form of an angled tablet made from slate and commemorating those who did National Sevice. There is also a memorial to the Dunkirk Veterans in the form of an angled slate tablet and another to celebrated the Colwyn Bay RAF Association 50th Anniversary. A futher 50th Anniversary memorial in the same form as the RAF mmeorial is to be found commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Royal Artillery Association.

Falkland war hero memorial plea snub
by Martin Williams, North Wales Weekly News
A FAMILY battling for permission to honour a Falklands war hero on the 25th anniversary of his death has been snubbed.
Ron Chapman, of Tan-y-Graig Road, Old Colwyn, has been locked in a bitter dispute with the trustees of Old Colwyn's war memorial committee for several years.
Ron has been trying to erect a plaque or have David Osbourne's name added to the memorial list at St Catherine's Church on Abergele Road after his 23-year-old nephew was killed on May 4, 1982, when his ship HMS Sheffield was sunk in action.
He made the request on behalf of his 73-year-old sister Joyce, who wishes the committee would see sense.
"This is a difficult time because this week marks the 25th anniversary of my David's death," said Joyce.
Cook 1st Class D158914V, HMS Sheffield, Royal Navy. Died when his ship was hit by an Exocet missile 4th May 1982. Aged 22. Born 8 July 1959. Resident Portsmouth, Hampshire.


Andrew Horn studied Dance and Film making at the New York University School of The Arts.
Horn moved to Berlin in 1989 on receiving the DAAD grant, and he now works there as an journalist and film maker. Horn originally became known with his experimental dance films and has also made feature films such as »Doomed Love« (1983) and »The Big Blue« (1988). He is also known for the film »East Side Story«, which recounts the history of East European musicals. His most recent film was 2004's »The Nomi Song« about the singer Klaus Nomi, famous for his rare voice (counter tenor) and his extravagant outfits. Nomi was an iconic figure in the New York underground who enjoyed cult popularity in the New-Wave scene of the late seventies.

One of the best things since creating my blog is making connections with people all around the world. One of my biggest supporters and favorite blogs to get inspiration from is Tara Leydon's The TL Blog. Tara's instragram, @Taraleydon is one of the most gorgeous feeds of flowers, make up and hotpots to visit. I am so excited to share a fellow rock star in rockstuds.
When did you start the TL Blog?
I started the TL blog in Oct of 2015 my first official post was about my recent trip to NYC!
What are some of your favorite beauty products/brands you can't live without?
Where are some of your favorite places to go in Toronto?
What cities are on your dream travel list?
I've been lucky enough to do a large amount of traveling but some new places I have on my list would be Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai, Cape Town in South Africa, Barcelona and I'd love to go Thai Island hopping because when I went to Thailand I traveled around other parts of the country and didn't get to the islands.
What are some useful tips when it comes to creating the most perfect insta worthy photo?
I would say as much as you can try to take photos in good natural light, natural lighting is so key! There are tons of photo apps out there, try them out and see what your faves are. I love Afterlight and Lightroom. Also take photos of things you love not things you think would make a good insta, stay true to the things YOU love and want to share with others.


Status: Fairly common regular spring and fall migrant central and west, rare casual east. Fairly common regular breeder north-central and west.
Documentation: Specimen: UNSM ZM6609, 20 Jun 1901 Indian Creek, Sioux Co.
Taxonomy: Treated as monotypic by Gill and Donsker (2017) and Pyle (2008), based on Dugger & Dugger (2002). Two poorly-defined subspecies, parvus of southwest Canada to California and americanus of the western United States, are recognized by some authorities (Clements et al 2016).
Nebraska birds are intergrades if the subspecies are recognized, given the ranges outlined by AOU (1957).
Arrival is relatively early, generally by the last week of Mar, with a peak in Apr. A bird (Bailey) outfitted with a satellite transmitter in Garden County, Nebraska left her northeast Mexico winter location 8 Apr 2010, arrived in Garden Co 9 Apr, and settled in 11 miles northeast of her previous year's nesting site; in 2011 Bailey left northeast Mexico 29 Mar and arrived in the western Sandhills 1 Apr (NGPC, unpublished data).
Easterly records are few, even in the Rainwater Basin. One in Fillmore Co 27 Apr 2003 was the first record for the eastern Rainwater Basin for 50 years; but in the following years, 2004-2013, there were no fewer than 12 eastern records 30 Mar-27 Apr, most of these cited by Jorgensen (2012). There are three easterly records away from the Rainwater Basin, all in 2013: Sarpy Co 13 Apr, one photographed at Jack Sinn WMA, Lancaster Co 15 Apr, and two birds likely this species near Talmage, Otoe Co 27 Apr. An older report was of one downed in a snowstorm in Albion 26 Mar 1983 (Wayne Mollhoff, pers. comm.).
High counts: 30+ at North Platte, Lincoln Co 1 Apr 2003, 26 at Lake Ogallala, Keith Co 2 May 1998, 25 around North Platte 15 Apr 2014, and 23 at Lake McConaughy 20 Apr 2013.
Summer: The Long-billed Curlew's historical breeding range formerly included all of Nebraska (Ducey 2000), extending as far east as Illinois, but had decreased markedly by 1900 (Dugger and Dugger 2002). Cary (1900) noted that the Long-billed Curlew was "formerly common but is now quite rare" in Antelope Co in Nebraska. By the early 1900s Long-billed Curlew was restricted to western Nebraska as "a common breeder locally from Cherry County westward" (Bruner et al. 1904). The breeding range has remained relatively stable since. Long-billed Curlews became less common in the east and south of the Sandhills as the prairies were converted to agriculture; the species has not summered in the Keystone Lake, Keith Co area since irrigators were installed in the 1990s (Brown et al 2012). Since 1925, there have been fewer than 20 reports east of the Sandhills and south of the Platte River.
Nebraska's breeding population has been estimated at 23,909 individuals (95% CI: 20,810—27,471; Gregory et al 2011). Breeding densities are highest in the western Sandhills, primarily the "lake country" that includes southern Sheridan, northern Garden, western Cherry, Arthur, and Grant Cos (Gregory et al 2011, Rosche 1982). It also breeds commonly on the Ogallala National Grasslands in Sioux Co (Rosche 1982).
Although the Nebraska Sandhills appear to be a major stronghold for the species (Gregory et al 2011), declines in Nebraska are apparently ongoing. BBS trend analysis (Sauer et al 2017) shows Long-billed Curlews declining -3.04% (95% C.I.; -5.77 to -0.23) annually in the state. A recent study in the western Sandhills 2008-2010 showed nest success was about 30% and negatively associated with the presence of tall vegetation near the nest site (Gregory et al 2011). The same study also showed chick survival from hatching to fledging was only 4% (n = 28; Gregory 2011).
The southern and eastern limits of the breeding range are not well defined, but the species may breed at very low densities in the southern Panhandle and in Sandhills east of Cherry County.
The few breeding season reports from the southern Panhandle are of a pair west of Long Canyon in Banner Co 3 May 1997, 14 in the same general area and courting 8 Apr 2000, one calling in suitable breeding habitat in southern Kimball Co 9 May 1998, and a pair in northern Cheyenne Co that raised chicks in 2007 and 2008.
There are a few breeding season reports from the southwest, but there has been no evidence of breeding: Jun or Jul 1970, 1972, and 1974, and 2 Jun 1992 in Perkins Co, 23 May-30 Jun 1988 in Chase Co, and pairs in southwest Lincoln Co 2 Jun 2003 and 11 Jun 2007 and one near Wellfleet, Lincoln Co 13 Jun 2018. Tout (1947) described it as a "summer resident and breeder" in Lincoln Co. The species formerly was a common breeder on the northeastern plains of Colorado (Andrews and Righter 1992).
Eastward, breeding apparently occurs on occasion in Brown, Rock, and Holt Cos (Mossman and Brogie 1983, Blake and Ducey 1991) and Garfield Co (Ducey 1988).
Post-breeding grouping and fall migration by Long-billed Curlews commences early. Failed breeders may migrate by early Jun or even May. Two females outfitted with satellite transmitters that nested in Garden Co in 2009 both had nests that were depredated. One female migrated south on 19 Jun and arrived on wintering grounds in northeast Tamaulipas, Mexico, 29 Jun. The other female departed 29 Jun (NGPC, unpublished data). One of these birds departed Nebraska 12 May 2010 and flew 360 miles to the Oklahoma Panhandle. Presumably its nest was also lost soon after egg-laying (NGPC, unpublished data).
Additional early fall migrants away from breeding areas were one at Harlan Co Reservoir, Harlan Co 20 Jun 2004, one in southeast Lincoln Co 23 Jun 2005, and a large group of 200 in Garden Co 12 Jul 2004. During Jul numbers decline and most are gone by Aug. Tout's (1947) latest date from Lincoln Co is 22 Jul, and last dates from southern Sioux Co were 22 Jul 2009 and 31 Jul 2008. Most of the Aug reports are from the first half of the month, and there are only seven reports for Sep.
The species is casual in the east in fall with only four recent records; two were found at separate sites along the Platte River between Columbus and North Bend 27 Jun 2012, one was at Conestoga Lake, Lancaster Co 23 Jul, one was at Tamora WPA, Seward Co 1 Sep 2017, and one was at Funk WPA, Phelps Co 13 Sep 1997.
High counts: 200 in Garden Co 12 Jul 2004, 75 near Scottsbluff, Scotts Bluff Co late Aug 1929 (Swenk 1929), and 70 at Winters Creek Lake, Scotts Bluff Co 23 Jul 2005.

Simon Leung was born in Hong Kong. His projects in various media include an opera set in Griffith Park; a live/video performance addressing AIDS in the figure of the glory hole; a trilogy on "the residual space of the Vietnam War;" an extended proposal of Duchamp's oeuvre as a discourse in ethics; a meditation on the site/non-site dialectic by way of Edgar Allan Poe; context-specific works centering on the squatting body as a heuristic cipher; and a twenty-year plus collaboration with the writer and art world figure Warren Niesłuchowski. Leung's most recently completed work is ACTIONS! / ADJUCNTS!, an "art workers' theater" project on the intersection of art and labor. Although not collected under any mediumistic or stylistic rubric, at the heart of all of Leung's work is the meditation of the ethical challenge, broadly defined, as proposition and possibility. He is co-editor of the anthology Theory in Contemporary Art Since 1985 and Professor and Associate Chair of graduate studies in the Department of Art at the University of California, Irvine. Leung was a recipient of the Art Journal Award for his essay "The Look of Law;" a scholar in residence at the Clark Art Institute; and has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Fellows of Contemporary Art, New York State Council on the Arts, New York Foundation for the Arts, City of Los Angeles, California Community Foundation and Art Matters. Internationally, his work has been presented at the Venice Biennale (2003), the Guangzhou Triennial (2008), the Anren Biennale (2017), Generali Foundation (Vienna), 1A Space (Hong Kong), the Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art (Warsaw), neue Gesellschaft für bildende Kunst (Berlin), Sala Mendoza (Caracas), the National Museum of Contemporary Art (South Korea), and the Inside-Out Art Museum (Beijing). In the US, his work has been shown at the Whitney Biennial (1993); the Museum of Modern Art; The New Museum; Santa Monica Museum of Art, The Kitchen, MOCA, Hammer Museum, and the MAK Center for Art and Architecture.

The Piggyback Rider, models NOMIS and NILOC, is a standing child carrier designed to aid an adult to carry a child with balance, lower extremity, neurological or walking disabilities. It is worn like a backpack with the child riding on the user's back in a standing position. The Piggyback Rider has adjustable shoulder straps and a chest strap for added support. Each shoulder strap has two hand hold straps that the child can hold while riding, and the NOMIS model has enhanced aerated foam for added comfort. The child is secured by an adjustable safety harness that tethers to attachment loops on the shoulder straps and fits around each of the child's arms. The childs feet rest on an adjustable-height footbar with a textured surface that grips the soles of the child's feet or footwear. The NOMIS model includes a cinch sack carry bag, and the NILOC model includes a messenger bag carry bag. The Piggyback Rider is recommended for children who are at least 2.5 years old. OPTIONS: Child hydration bladder; dual hydration bladder. CAPACITY: Supports children weighing up to 60 pounds. WEIGHT: Approximately 3 pounds.
