# Benny Hollinger

Benjamin Hollinger (1885–1919) was a Canadian barber turned prospector from Haileybury, Ontario, now considered one of the Founding Fathers of Timmins, Ontario, Canada. He was born April 10, 1885, in Point Alexander, Ontario, the youngest son of schoolteacher John Hollinger and Sarah Sutherland.
With his friend, a professional prospector, Alex Gillies– for whom Gillies Lake is named –Hollinger travelled to the Porcupine region, in the wake of the Wilson expedition which had recently discovered the future Dome Mine site. On October 9, 1909, Hollinger discovered the gold-bearing quartz dike that later became known as Hollinger Mines. Hollinger and Gillies staked three claims each, and one for their former partner, Bernard "Barney" P. McEnaney, who had been unable to join them due to severe sciatica.
Not having sufficient financial resources to develop the capital-heavy mine site, Hollinger quickly sold his claim for $165,000 to the fledgling partnership of brothers Noah Timmins and Henry Timmins and brothers Duncan and John McMartin. Following a successful defense of their claim, Mattawa, Ontario attorney David Alexander Dunlap (1863–1924) joined the two pairs of brothers and, together, in 1910, the five equal partners incorporated Hollinger Mines, for which Hollinger's claim later produced more than 19 million ounces of gold worth over $600 million (Canadian dollars).
Hollinger continued to strike claims and, on February 4, 1913, married Ellen Jane Hill, in Pembroke, Ontario. Together, they had a daughter and two sons.
Hollinger died in Pembroke on November 26, 1919. Following his untimely death from heart failure, The Porcupine Advance reported the pioneer prospector to have reputedly been "pleasant, cheerful, loyal and a gentleman always."

## Legacy

   Our municipality owes its existence to the initiative and efforts of prospectors by the names of Harry Preston, Sandy McIntyre and Benny Hollinger, who in the early 1900s discovered gold.
Benny Hollinger was inducted into the Canadian Mining Hall of Fame in 2010.
# Nishtar Park bombing

On 11 April 2006, a bombing at Nishtar Park in Karachi, Pakistan resulted in the deaths of at least 49 people and injured around a hundred others. At the time of the blast, a mawlid ceremony to mark the birthday of Muhammad organised by the Barelvi Jamaat Ahle Sunnat was taking place, in which tens of thousands of followers were gathered.
Among the dead were several Barelvi religious figures, including the senior leadership of the Jamaat Ahle Sunnat and the Sunni Tehreek. The notable leaders included Chief of Sunni Tehreek, Maulana Muhammad Abbas Qadri, central leaders Maulana Akram Qadri, Maulana Iftikhar Ahmad Bhatti, Dr. Qadeer Ahmad and Haji Haneef Billo, Hafiz Muhammad Taqi of other parties. Three men said to belong to the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi were indicted for the crime.
# HMS Albion (1842)

HMS Albion was a 90-gun second-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy. Ordered in 1839, she was built at Plymouth Dockyard, launched on 6 September 1842, and completed on 23 January 1844. Albion was designed by Sir William Symonds, was the only ship of her class to ever serve as a sailing ship, and the last British two-decker to be completed and enter service without a steam engine. She was the name ship of a class of three second rates—the others being Aboukir and Exmouth.

## Career

Albion entered service in 1844 and was deployed to the Black Sea during the Crimean War. Her crew suffered many casualties from Cholera in August 1854. She took part in the siege of Sevastopol, with her commanding officer, Captain Stephen Lushington taking charge of a Naval Brigade providing vital heavy artillery support for the Allied forces besieging Sevastopol. On 17 October 1854, Albion, under the command of Commander Henry Rogers joined over 50 British and French warships of various types in an initial seaborne bombardment of Sevastapol. The Russians suffered heavy casualties (at least 1,100 men) but the Allies had failed to seriously damage the batteries. The Anglo-French fleet had received comparatively light casualties, with about 500 killed or wounded in total. However, the Allies had taken a beating from the Russian batteries, and Albion had been set on fire three times during the engagement, with 11 killed and 71 injured. Without the assistance of tugs, it is probable that Albion would have run aground. On 17 August 1855 Albion took part in the fifth bombardment of Sevastopol.

## Fate

From 1860 until 1861, she was converted to steam screw propulsion at Devonport, but the modifications were never finished. She was kept in reserve in Devonport for more than twenty years, before the decision was made to scrap her, and she was finally broken up at Devonport in 1884.
# WACA (AM)

WACA is a Spanish news/talk formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Laurel, Maryland, serving the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. It is owned by Alejandro Carrasco, through licensee ACR Media, Inc.
900 AM is a Canadian and Mexican clear-channel frequency.

## History

From 1965 to the early 1980s, the station (then WLMD) broadcast a succession of formats in English; several radio personalities began their careers with the station.
Before 1969, WLMD was a MOR (Middle Of The Road) formatted radio station and held to the model created by WMAL and WBAL in Washington and Baltimore, respectively. Its dismal ratings, primarily due to being a relatively low power AM station only broadcasting during the day with a poor coverage area, led to a format change beginning in 1975. The new Progressive Country music format was loved by the small audience it attracted and ratings increased modestly. The station changed its call sign to WILC on December 19, 1985.
ZGS Communications, then the owner of Telemundo affiliate WZDC-CD, purchased WILC in 2002.
On March 14, 2011, WILC flipped to a Spanish adult contemporary format as Romantica 900 AM. On February 3, 2014, the station changed formats to Conservative Talk; with a more Libertarian emphasis. On the same date, Wallis Communications began operating the station under a local marketing agreement. On November 5, 2014, WILC changed their format back to Spanish adult contemporary, branded as "Romantica 900".
From January 1, 2016, WILC was operated by Alejandro Carrasco under a local marketing agreement. The station continued with a Spanish adult contemporary format branded "Radio America 900" to correspond with Carrasco's news-talk WACA, long known as "Radio America 1540". As part of its exit from broadcasting, ZGS sold to Carrasco for $700,000 on January 29, 2018. WILC was ZGS' last remaining broadcast property after selling its television stations to Telemundo in the same month. Carrasco closed on the purchase of WILC on April 10, 2018, and then changed the station's call sign to WCLM on April 25, 2018. At the beginning of 2019, the news/talk programming moved from the daytimer 1540 AM, which was then leased to a local Catholic broadcaster. With the outright sale of 1540 AM (now WDON) closing in July 2021, the WACA callsign relocated to 900 AM, replacing WCLM, where the station commenced 24/7 broadcasting.

# Vanguard-class ship of the line

The Vanguard-class ships of the line were a class of two-deck 80-gun second rates, designed for the Royal Navy by Sir William Symonds, of which nine were completed as sailing ships of the line, although another two of these were completed as (and others converted into) steam warships.
They were originally planned as 78-gun third rates. Two ships were ordered in 1832 and another two in 1833, although one of the latter was intended to be a rebuilding of the second rate Union, and this was subsequently cancelled. At this point the design was modified and they were re-designated as 80-gun second rates. Another ship was ordered to this design in 1838, another seven in 1839 (of which two were subsequently re-ordered three months later as 90-gun ships to a new design - the Albion and Aboukir) and another two in 1840. Two of the above ships were re-ordered and completed as steam battleships - Majestic and Irresistible. A final ship to this design, the Brunswick, was ordered in 1844 but in 1847 she was re-ordered to a modified design.

# Ashton under Hill

Ashton under Hill is a village and civil parish in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire in England. It is situated at the foot of Bredon Hill. According to the 2001 census the parish had a population of 743, about six miles south-west of Evesham. A five house hamlet named Paris is located above the village with panoramic views over the surrounding hills.

## History

Historically part of Gloucestershire, it was transferred to Worcestershire under the Provisional Order Confirmation (Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire) Act 1931.
The village church, St Barbara's is dedicated to St Barbara who is alleged to afford protection from lightning strikes. In 2005, villagers celebrated the 900th anniversary of the church.
The author Fred Archer lived in Ashton at Stanley's Farm. He wrote a series of popular books about tales of country life. The books described life in the village between the years 1876 and 1939.

### Railways

Ashton-under-Hill railway station belonged to the Midland Railway (later part of the LMS). It was situated on a lengthy loop line, Gloucester Loop Line branching off the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway main line at Ashchurch, passing through Evesham railway station, Alcester and Redditch, and rejoining the main line at Barnt Green, near Bromsgrove. The loop was built to address the fact that the main line bypassed most of the towns it might otherwise have served, but it took three separate companies to complete.
The loop officially closed between Ashchurch and Redditch in June 1963, but poor condition of the track had brought about withdrawal of all trains between Evesham and Redditch earlier, in October 1962, being replaced by a bus service for the final eight months. Redditch to Barnt Green remains open on the electrified Birmingham suburban network.
Ashton under Hill station house still stands as a private residence.

## Schools

The schools Bredon Hill Academy and Ashton under Hill First are located in Ashton under Hill. Both schools have received an Ofsted rating of "outstanding".
Ashton is located near the Bredon Hill satellite villages of Conderton, Beckford, Elmley Castle, Overbury and Kemerton.

# Thy Neighbor's Wife (book)

Thy Neighbor's Wife is a non-fiction book by Gay Talese, published in 1981 and updated in 2009.
The book is an exploration of sexuality in America from after World War II through the 1970s, with notable discussion of the free love subculture. It provides a snapshot of liberated pre-AIDS sexual morality.
In preparation for writing the book, Talese resided for several months at Sandstone Retreat, a clothing-optional, open sexuality resort for swingers, in California.
In 1979, prior to the book's publication, United Artists purchased the film rights to Thy Neighbor's Wife for $2.5 million, which at the time was the largest amount ever paid for film rights to any book. At the time, UA contemplated making as many as three films based on the book, and in 1980, William Friedkin agreed to write and direct the first film, which he contemplated would receive an X rating.
