# Denver Press Club

The Denver Press Club, located at 1330 Glenarm Place, Denver, Colorado, is the oldest press club in the United States. Journalists first met in 1867, and the club was incorporated in 1877.

## History

Members first met in the basement of Wolfe Londoner's grocery store on Larimer Street but outgrew the space and met at various hotels in Denver.
Theodore Roosevelt and William Taft were the only two presidents to receive an honorary membership in the form of a solid gold-and-silver membership card to the Denver Press Club.
During the 1908 National Democratic Convention, the Denver Press Club served as press headquarters and organizers of the convention's social entertainment.
In 1925, members decided to have their own building and chose architects Merill H. and Burnham Hoyt to design the building. The Denver Press Club building was built by Francis Kirchof for approximately $50,000, paid mostly with the sale of Who's Who in the Rockies. In 1945, artist Herndon Davis painted a wall-size mural of Denver journalists in the club's basement poker room. It remains there today.
In 1986, the building was designated an Historic Landmark by the Denver Landmark Preservation Commission. The Society of Professional Journalists deemed it as a "significant historical place in journalism" in 2008. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.
Today, the club's more than 400 members represent print and broadcast media, advertising and public relations, and an assortment of other professions. The roster has included Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists, cartoonists, and other notables, including Damon Runyon, Eugene Field, Gene Fowler, Frederick Gilmer Bonfils, Palmer Hoyt, Lowell Thomas, Lee Taylor Casey, Paul Conrad, Pat Oliphant, Thomas Hornsby Ferril, Carl Akers, Starr Yelland, Stormy Rottman, Lou Kilzer, Greg Lopez, Bob Palmer, Gene Amole, Sam Lusky, Rob Scoggins Jr., and Don Kinney.
The Denver Press Club's cornerstone Damon Runyon Award is presented annually to a person or persons whose career has embodied the style and verve of the legendary DPC alumnus.

# The Two Faces of War

The Two Faces of War (As duas faces da guerra in Portuguese) is a 2007 Portuguese documentary film directed by Diana Andringa and Flora Gomes. The film was shot in Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Portugal. The film includes a series of interviews and testimonies of people who lived through the period of the anti-colonial war and liberation in Guinea-Bissau.

## Content

The documentary consists of interviews with veterans and leaders from Portugal, Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde. Those countries lived through the conflict spanning from 1963 to 1974, a conflict between the PAIGC (African Party for the Independence of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde) and Portuguese troops.
In 1995, Diana Andringa, visited the town of Geba as a reporter and there she found a stone half-destroyed in the name of the Portuguese soldiers killed on African soil. This was the starting point for this work. Along with Flora Gomes, they produced a documentary which is the result of the points of view of Portugal and Guiné, about one of the bloodiest conflicts suffered during the Portuguese Colonial War.
For six weeks, Diana Andringa and Flora Gomes traveled through the regions of Mansoa, Geba, and Guilegar in Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Portugal where they collected the testimonies of people who lived through the colonial war.
Throughout the documentary we see an homage to Amílcar Cabral, founder of the PAIGC. The testimonies show the magnitude of Cabral who, despite being in the middle of the conflict between the two countries, has never ceased to feel to the Portuguese people as something of their own. It is the "paired adventure" of independence war in former colonies and the rise of democracy in Portugal that Andringa and Flora want to tell through the voices of those who lived through the conflict. Diana Andringa and Flora Gomes are the narrators of the documentary. The soundtrack is made up of music from Portuguese, Guinea and Cape Verde from the featured period.

# Deon Dreyer

Deon Dreyer (7 August 1974 – 17 December 1994) was a South African recreational scuba diver who died in Bushman's Hole in South Africa. Cave diver David Shaw died more than 10 years later while attempting to retrieve Dreyer's body.

## Life

Dreyer's father, Theo (who owns a business that sells and services two-way radios) and mother, Marie, raised him in the town of Vereeniging, about 35 miles south of Johannesburg. Dreyer designed "obscenely loud car stereos", had a passion for diving, and loved adventure, (e.g., hunting, racing a souped-up car, and motorcycling).
Outside Magazine's Tim Zimmerman reports:
   Deon had logged about 200 dives when he was invited to join some South Africa Cave Diving Association divers at Bushman's Hole over the 1994 Christmas break. They planned a descent to 150 metres (492 ft) and asked Deon to dive support. He was thrilled. Two weeks before the expedition, Deon's grandfather died. Sitting around a barbecue with his family one night, Deon spoke with boyish hubris. "He said if he had a choice of how to go out in life, he'd like to go out diving," recalls his father, Theo, 51.

## Death

Dreyer drowned on 17 December 1994, aged 20, during a practice dive. He was helping a team, assembled by Nuno Gomes, set up conditions for a deep technical dive scheduled to take place later that week. According to first-hand accounts from those diving with him, Dreyer was lost on ascent around 50 metres (160 ft) from the surface. They conjectured he had probably lost consciousness either because of oxygen toxicity or hypercapnia induced by the high work-rate of breathing at depth.
Two weeks after Dreyer's death, Theo hired a small, remotely operated sub used by the De Beers mining company. It found Dreyer's dive helmet on the sinkhole floor, but there was no sign of his body.

## Commemoration

Dreyer's parents erected a plaque on a rock wall above the Bushman's Hole entry pool, in memory of their son. In Phillip Finch's book Diving into Darkness: A True Story of Death and Survival, it was suggested that one of the reasons Dreyer's death created such an impression on the cave diving community was because of the plaque. The bodies of most other divers who die, even whilst cave diving, are recovered. However, for many years it was assumed Dreyer's body would never be recovered from the cave because it was simply too deep, but the plaque was a continual reminder to cave divers that his body lay within.

## Recovery of body

Ten years later, in October 2004, renowned cave diver David Shaw discovered Dreyer's body in the cave at a depth of 272 metres (892 ft). On 8 January 2005, Shaw tried to recover the body but died in the attempt. Shaw's close friend and support diver, Don Shirley, also nearly died and was left with permanent damage that has impaired his balance. On 12 January 2005, while others were recovering Shaw's technical equipment, they discovered the bodies of both Dreyer and Shaw had floated up close to the surface. Both bodies were then recovered.
# The Sunbathers

The Sunbathers, originally titled “Sunbathing Group” is a sculpture by Hungarian artist Peter Laszlo Peri, made for the Festival of Britain in 1951. After the Festival closed, the sculpture disappeared and it was presumed to be lost. After being rediscovered in 2016, the restored sculpture was initially put on display in the Royal Festival Hall on the South Bank, before being put on display in London Waterloo, a major railway terminus in 2020.

## History
### Festival of Britain

Hungarian born artist Peter Laszlo Peri was invited to produce a sculpture for the Festival of Britain - a national exhibition and fair held in 1951 on the South Bank of the River Thames in London.
His first proposal titled 'Reflections' was deemed too big for the site and he eventually contributed 'Sunbathing Group'. Two reclining figures mounted directly on the wall as if seen by the viewer from above. This inverted orientation, which Peri often used and termed “horizontal sculpture” in accordance with the viewers relationship to the work, has its roots in the disorientating aerial perspectives of 1920s New Vision photography and Constructivist visual theory.
The full-size concrete work, made from "Peri-crete" a continuation of the artist’s Constructivist interest in the use of new materials, was mounted on a wall at the entrance to the festival site on the South Bank, at the gate on York Road near Waterloo station. Dylan Thomas mentioned the sculpture in an essay written after he visited the Festival, as "the linked terra-cotta man and woman fly-defying gravity and elegantly hurrying up a W.C. wall". The sculpture disappeared after the exhibition closed, and it was believed to have been lost.

### Rediscovery

When Historic England held an exhibition of lost art in 2016, the work was rediscovered in pieces at The Clarendon Hotel in Blackheath. A former proprietor of the hotel, Joseph O'Donnell purportedly bought the work at an auction in the 1950s or the 1960s, although there are no records of how this publicly commissioned sculpture fell into private hands. Mr O’ Donell displayed it at his previous hotel, the Westcombe Park Hotel, later moving it to his new hotel in Blackheath, where it was displayed on a patio in the hotel garden, and used as a children's climbing frame. The work deteriorated and was later removed from public display.
A campaign to restore the sculpture raised £15,000 in 5 days, with contributions from the Heritage Lottery Fund, NESTA and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. The work was restored by Tessa Jackson of Jackson Sculpture Conservation Ltd. After restoration, it returned to the Southbank Centre, and was displayed in public at the Royal Festival Hall for three years. In August 2020, the sculpture was put on public display for five years at London Waterloo, a major railway terminus. The new site is closer to the (now demolished) wall that the sculpture was mounted during the Festival of Britain.

* Nicholas Ward (MP for Downpatrick) (1630–?), Irish MP for Downpatrick
* Nicholas Ward, 2nd Viscount Bangor (1750–1827), Irish MP for Bangor
* Nicholas Ward (boxer) (1811–1850), English bare-knuckle fighter

# Nicholas Ward (boxer)

Nicholas Ward (1 April 1811 – 17 February 1850) was an English bare-knuckle fighter. Nick Ward was the heavyweight champion of England for four months in 1841. His first recorded fight was in 1835 against Harry John Lockyer. In 1840 he fought his brother Jem Ward's old enemy James Burke; Burke was a feared and dangerous fighter, who had killed one opponent, the champion Simon Byrne. Following the match Jem Ward had refused to fight Burke, would not hand over the championship belt or acknowledge Burke as the heavyweight champion, even after he was acquitted of murder. Nick Ward won the bout against Burke when his gang of supporters forced the referee to disqualify Burke for an alleged foul. This winning pattern was repeated when in February 1841 Ward became heavyweight champion. He beat Ben Caunt, the reigning champion, when Caunt was disqualified, after the referee succumbed to pressure from the crowd claiming Caunt hit Ward while he was down. In May of the same year Caunt legitimately beat Ward and regained his title. At this time boxing was governed by the less than arduous London Prize Ring rules. The more strict and fair Queensbury rules were not implemented until much later in the century.
Nick Ward is today considered a "mediocre" boxer, known for using "unfair tactics" and avoiding head on fighting. However, in spite of his reputation for underhand fighting he was considered a good counter puncher.
Ward died in Soho, London in 1850 aged 38.
# Polish Women's League

Polish Women's League (Polish: Liga Kobiet Polskich) is a Polish women's organisation. Two organizations with the name Women's League were founded in 1913 and 1915 respectively, which united to become a single national Women's League, active from 1918–1939. The Women's League was re-founded in 2001.

## First Polish Women's League

Polish Women's League originated in two separate women's organisations, with similar names: the League of Polish Women of the War Ambulance (Polish: Liga Kobiet Polskich Pogotowia Wojennego), founded in 1913, and the League of Women in Galicia and Silesia (Polish: Liga Kobiet Galicji i Śląska), founded in 1915, both commonly called "Liga Kobiet" or Women's League.
The Women's League of 1913 was founded by Izabela Moszczeńska, Jadwigi Marcinowskiej, Teresy Ciszkiewiczowej and Heleny Ceysingerówny in Warsaw, which was then the Russian part of Poland. It worked to unite Polish women for the nation's independence. In 1914–1916, it created branches all over Poland, with the ambition to function as a national umbrella organisation for women's organisations in a future united Poland. In 1916, it presented a petition to the Polish authorities (Regency Council (Poland)), requesting women's suffrage.
The Women's League of 1915 was founded by a number of small women's groups in Krakow in then Austrian Poland, with the Women's League of 1913 in Russian Poland as its role model, also working for the independence of Poland and supporting the Polish government during the war.
Women's suffrage was introduced when Poland became an independent nation in November 1918, and women were granted equal political rights with men in the new by the Provisional People's Government of the Republic of Poland on 11 November 1918, a reform which was confirmed and implemented by Józef Piłsudski on 28 November.
On 29-31 December 1918, when Austrian Poland and Russian Poland had been united to an independent nation, the two Women's Leagues were merged in to a united national Women's League on a conference in the new capital of Warsaw.
During the Interwar period, notable members of the organisation included Zofia Moraczewska, Dorota Kłuszyńska and Zofia Daszyńska-Golińska. However, the success during the 1920s and 1930s was limited because of the resistance from the Catholic church.
After the foundation of the Polish People's Republic in 1945, it was dissolved and replaced by a state women's organisation with a similar name: the League of Polish Women, also called Liga Kobiet Polskich.

## Second Polish Women's League

In 2001, the Polish Women's League was refounded. The present Polish Women's League reference the original Pre-War Polish Women's League as its predecessor.
