hobson

This ancient English surname recorded as Hobson, Hopson, Hobbes, Hobbs and Hobbiss, and other spellings, is a patronymic form of the medieval male name Hobb, itself a pet form of Robert. Robert derives from the pre 8th century Anglo-Saxon or Germanic "Hrodbeorht", a compound personal name with the elements "hrod" meaning "renown", plus "berht", bright or famous. The name was probably introduced into England during the reign of King Edward, known as The Confessor, 1042 - 1066, but took hold after the Norman Conquest of 1066. Rodbertus, Rotbert, and Robert, , are all recorded in the famous Domesday Book of 1086. The popularity of the name subsequently gave rise to a wide variety of "nicknames" including Rob, Dob, Hob, and many others and these developed into surnames in their own right. The patronymic form with "son" or simply the "s", emerged in the early 14th Century. Early examples of the recordings include Robertus Hobson, in the 1379 Poll Tax rolls of Yorkshire, whilst Edward Hobson,who embarked from London in 1619 on the ship "Bona Nova", was one of the first settlers in the state of Virginia. The first recorded spelling of the family name is believed to be that of John Hobbessone, which was dated 1327, in the Subsidy Rolls of the county of Essex, during the reign of King Edward 111 of England, who reigned from 1327 to 1377.

Human powered transport is the transport of people and/or goods using human muscle-power, in the form of walking, running and swimming. Modern technology has allowed machines to enhance human-power. Human-powered transport remains popular for reasons of cost-saving, leisure, physical exercise and environmentalism. Human-powered transport is sometimes the only type available, especially in underdeveloped or inaccessible regions. It is considered an ideal form of sustainable transportation.

Although humans are able to walk without infrastructure, the transport can be enhanced through the use of roads, especially when enforcing the human power with vehicles, such as bicycles and inline skates. Human-powered vehicles have also been developed for difficult environments, such as snow and water, by watercraft rowing and skiing; even the air can be entered with human-powered aircraft.

bishop auckland

Bishop Auckland is a market town and civil parish in County Durham in North East England. It is located about 12 miles northwest of Darlington and 12 miles southwest of Durham at the confluence of the River Wear with its tributary the River Gaunless. According to the 2001 census, Bishop Auckland has a population of 24,392.
The earliest known reference to Bishop Auckland itself is around 1000AD as land given to the Duke of Northumberland for defending the church against the Scots.

Much of the town''s early history surrounds the Bishops of Durham and the establishment of a hunting lodge, which later became the main residence of the Bishops of Durham. This link with the Bishops of Durham is reflected in the first part of the town''s name.
During the Industrial Revolution, the town grew rapidly as coal mining took hold as an important industry. The subsequent decline of the coal mining industry in the late twentieth century has been blamed for a fall in the town''s fortunes in other sectors. Today, the largest sector of employment in the town is manufacturing
