# John Collier (caricaturist)

John Collier (18 December 1708 – 14 July 1786) was an English caricaturist and satirical poet known by the pseudonym of Tim Bobbin, or Timothy Bobbin. Collier styled himself as the Lancashire Hogarth.

## Life and career

Born in Urmston, Lancashire, the son of an impoverished curate, he moved to Milnrow at the age of 17 to work as a schoolmaster. Marriage and nine children meant he needed to supplement his income and he began producing illustrated satirical poetry in Lancashire dialect and a book of dialect terms. His first and most famous work, A View of the Lancashire Dialect, or, Tummus and Mary, appeared in 1746, and is the earliest significant piece of Lancashire dialect to be published. He regularly travelled to Rochdale to sell his work in the local pubs where most of the business of Rochdale was conducted as there was no cloth hall at that time. People in the pubs would ask him to draw portraits of them and their friends and he would charge on the basis of the number of heads in the picture. The Lancashire dialect poetry collection, Human Passions Delineated, a work which he both wrote and illustrated, appeared in 1773. In it he savagely lampooned the behaviour of upper and lower classes alike. The etchings were widely reproduced, and some were printed on ceramics of the time, and a colourised reproduction of 25 of the plates was published in 1810. He died in 1786 leaving the sum of £50 and was buried in the churchyard of Rochdale Parish Church, St. Chad's. He wrote his own epitaph 20 minutes before he died, "Jack of all trades...left to lie i'th dark" which is inscribed upon his gravestone. He had also written a number of other humorous epitaphs for graves, a number of which can still be seen in St. Chad's churchyard.
In 1792 Sir Walter Scott visited the grave and suggested that a public subscription be raised to refurbish it. One thousand people donated a £1-0s–0d each, the tombstone was raised and a fence erected around the grave. A ceremony was arranged, which was attended by many eminent people including a number of Lancashire dialect poets who acknowledged their debt to the first of their number, Tim Bobbin.

# Roccacasale

Roccacasale (locally La Rocca) is a comune in the Province of L'Aquila in the Abruzzo region of Italy. Built on the slopes of the Monte della Rocca in the central Apennines, the village overlooks the Peligna Valley and the town of Sulmona.
The village arose from a small settlement called Casali, which had few inhabitants prior to 925. As a result of the construction of the fortified rocca, sited to control the entrance to the Valle del Sangro and the Cinquemiglia plain, from Saracen or Byzantine, the centre formed, with the passing of time, into a typical medieval walled village on the slopes directly under the castle. The higher part of the village consists of steep roads leading towards the castle, and linked by narrow passageways between buildings constructed on the naked bedrock. Inside the ancient village are the church of Saint Michael Archangel (consecrated in 1579) and the remains of the baronial palazzo, constructed by the de Sanctis, barons of Roccacasale, next to the church more recently than the castle; very little remains of the palazzo today.

# Chicamocha National Park cable car

Chicamocha National Park Cable Car is one of the longest aerial tramways in the world. It is located within the Chicamocha National Park, Santander, Colombia. It differs from other cable cars around the world due to its engineering design, beautiful view, use of double cable channel (not quite common), altitude and its outstanding layout.

## General Information

| Constructing Company | Temporary union: Poma Galski, Ingsas and Termotécnic |
| System | Continuous, single cable, bidirectional, removable handles and close cabins |
| Length | 6.3 km (3.9 mi) |
| Difference in altitude | 500 meters above sea level to 1,684 meters above sea level |
| Cabins | 38 |
| Stations (3) | Mesa de los Santos, Rio Chicamocha, Chicamocha National Park |
| Passengers per cabin | 8 |
| Speed | 5–6 meters per second |
| Capacity | 500 passengers per hour |
| Completion date | January 2009 |
| Prices | Adults: $68,000 Colombian Pesos Children and Seniors: $46,000 Colombian Pesos These prices include the entrance fee. |

## Overview

The Chicamocha National Park Cable Car was inaugurated in January 2009. It was constructed by the temporary union of Poma Galski, Ingsas and Termotecnic engineering firms. It is 6.3 kilometers long and it is powered by 3 stations. The ride can take from 22 minutes at maximum speed (high season) to 30 minutes at regular speed. The visitors of the Chicamocha National Park enjoy a spectacular panorama on the more than 6 kilometer ride with the cable car. In Colombia and in the whole world, the cable car has generated great expectation since it is the only one which crosses a 6.3 kilometer canyon.

## Functionality

The cable-car uses a transportation system with cabins which are in fixed position attached to a high performance iron cable. This cable is pulled by motors and rotating wheels at each station. This entire process is powered by three energy plants of 13,200 volts at each station. The 6.3 kilometers are divided in the following way: 2 kilometers between the stations Park-River and 4.3 between the stations River-Mesa de los Santos. The average speed of each cabin is around 6 meters per second. The cable car has a sophisticated system that allows a continuous monitoring of the status of the entire system from each station. This system uses sensors to know the weight of each cabin, humidity, temperature, wind’s velocity and other important variables that may affect the functionality of the system.

## Engineering Challenge

The construction and design of Chicamocha National Park Cable Car was a great challenge for engineering. The inclined topography and climate conditions of the region were the root of this challenge. A modern Russian helicopter participated in the installation of great part of the twenty nine support columns, each one with an approximate height of 25 meters and two tonnes of weight. Even hundreds of mules were needed to transport the hundreds of tons of cement and aggregates. This colossal engineering marvel was a result of the combination of the knowledge and experience of Colombian engineering plus the design and technology of French engineering.

## Political career

John Evans was first elected to the Tasmanian House of Assembly in the electorate of Kingborough on 20 January 1897. He did not have a political party, at this time, but is described as Anti-Socialist. Evans became Premier on 12 July 1904, holding office until 19 June 1909. In 1909 his seat of Kingborough was abolished and replaced with the Division of Franklin. He won the seat back in 1909 and continued to serve in parliament until 1937 as Commonwealth Liberal and Nationalist. His time in parliament, forty years from 1897 to 1937, makes him the longest-serving member in Tasmania.

Shortly after, bassist Matt Balog, and guitarists Chris Grzan and Joe Lanza joined the band, which was named Rocky & the Chapter. The band cites musical influence from Ryan Adams, Counting Crows, Jawbox, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Tegan and Sara, and they draw comparison to the music of Motion City Soundtrack, Jimmy Eat World, and the Gaslight Anthem. On their live performances, Jim Testa calls Rocky & the Chapter "a muscular example of Hub City rock," and Speak Into My Good Eye editor Phil Shepard says "I get the hype[,] these guys bring it with great energy and feeling."

### Sniffling Indie Kids

Rocky & the Chapter's first release is the single "Sun Goes Down," on January 13, 2015. Their debut six-track album New Day / Old Night was released with Sniffling Indie Kids, on August 7, 2015, and in an interview with The Pop Break, Cantonese explains the songs "are all rooted in some emotional times I've had over the last few years with friends and loved ones."

Rocky & the Chapter performed at the 2016 North Jersey Indie Rock Festival. The four-track EP, entitled Aye, was released on October 28, 2016. The four-track EP You Are Not Mine is described as jangly indie rock, and was released on January 24, 2017. A review by James Damion in Jersey Beat says the EP "offers a crisp Pop sound with enough kicked up guitar riffs to give it an undeniable rock edge," adding that "Rocky's voice has a special pull that draws that the listener close enough to the song to make them feel as if they're a part of it." The single "Overthinking" was released on June 9, 2017. They also performed at the North Jersey Indie Rock Festival on September 23, 2017. Rocky & the Chapter released the four-track EP They're Not Supposed to Care About Us, on September 29, 2017.

# Mitcham Stadium

Mitcham Stadium was a multi use sports stadium in Mitcham, London. Uses included rugby league, athletics and greyhound racing. The stadium is not to be confused with the former Sandy Lane ground owned by Tooting and Mitcham FC, which was sited nearby.

## Stadium

The stadium was simply called the Mitcham Stadium and was in use for twenty years, from 1935 until 1955. It had covered grandstands along both straights and one of the straights was slightly extended. The stadium had a large total capacity of 60,000 (mostly standing) and was owned by Sydney Parkes, a greyhound track owner. Following its closure, the stadium was replaced by housing in 1955 and the site is now occupied by Ormerod Gardens and Fowler Road. The West Grandstand was purchased in 1955 by Leyton Orient F.C. and the whole structure dismantled and reconstructed at their Brisbane Road ground, where it remains today.

### Rugby League

It was home to the Streatham and Mitcham R.L.F.C. from 1935 to 1937.

### Greyhound Racing

Some greyhound racing took place during 1936 and 1937. The track was a short lived independent (unaffiliated to a governing body). The racing ended after the owner Sydney Parker was refused a racing licence.

### Other uses

The grass infield was also used for Hurling and Gaelic football matches.
Fulham F.C. were in advanced negotiations to relocate to the stadium in 1938, but the outbreak of World War II meant this never materialised.
