Now The Future Thanks 5 of 91 6 of 91 7 of 91 A history of getting the job done This book is a fine testament to the company J. Murphy & Sons Limited and in particular its founder John Murphy. If you wish to see a first class example of a successful entrepreneur in a very competitive business then look no further than John Murphy. I first encountered John Murphy (the man and his company) in the late 1960s when they were successful in winning distribution contracts in the gas industry. As the company developed into a wide range of civil engineering and infrastructure projects, it became clear they possessed a strong “can do” ethos, based on a very sound understanding of engineering and customer requirements. This was very evident to me personally when they successfully completed the onshore pipeline, connecting

  • Identification of Hedonomic Road Landscape in Lithuania
    Aplinkos tyrimai, inžinerija ir vadyba, 2010. Nr. 4(54), P. 72-78 ISSN 2029-2139 Environmental Research, Engineering and Management, 2010. No.4(54), P. 72-78 (On-line) Identification of Hedonomic Road Landscape in Lithuania Irina Matijošaitienė Department of Architecture and Land Management, Kaunas University of Technology (received in November, 2010, accepted in December, 2010) Hedonomics is quite a new branch of science which is closely related to ergonomics – where ergonomic needs, such as safety, functionality, usability, and hedonomic needs such as pleasurable experience and personal perfection just begin. Further analysis of the subject literature, and comparison of the facts about hedonomics allow us perceive hedonomic roadscape as a pleasurable roadscape. Since it is not clear how to identify hedonomic or pleasurable roadscape, the interdisciplinary roadscape evaluation method is proposed in the paper. The method is based on an assumption of a concept of hedonomic road landscape as an aspiration. The proposed method consists of a preparatory field research of roadscape including road landscape research and photo-fixation on the site, a survey method selection, questionnaires formation using Kansei engineering and SD (semantic differential) technique and a main research including sociological research and using cluster and contingency analysis. The author also identifies hedonomic and non- hedonomic landscape of main Lithuanian arterial roads which are labeled as European arterial roads and corridors of the network of European roads except for bypasses. Key words: road landscape (roadscape), hedonomic, cluster analysis, contingency analysis, Kansei engineering method, semantic differential method (SD technique). 1. Introduction A distinctive culture of travelling by car started to look wider at roadscape and its identification, and to develop in the USA at the beginning of the 20th to develop a solution at psychological, economic, century.

  • Appendix a to the Council Minutes – 23 October 2019
    Appendix A to the Council Minutes – 23 October 2019 Item 6 – Questions from Members of the Public. There were 6 questions submitted from members of the public. 1. From Mrs Saunders to Councillor Watkins I would like to ask the Council why so many trees are being removed in Thurrock in particular Dell Road, this is near where I live, I’m in Rectory Road, the Orsett Cock roundabout, Rectory Road, Chadwell Road and we noticed some had been taken down near Coalhouse Fort whilst out walking. Thank you. Mayor Councillor Watkins, please respond to the question. Councillor Watkins Thank you very much Mr Mayor, and thank you to yourself as well Mrs Saunders. Trees can be removed for a multitude of different reasons, such as development or issues specifically related to that tree or for particular safety issues as well. I would just like to point out, and I’m not sure how you feel, but I don’t like seeing trees being taken down. They will only ever get taken down if there was ever an actual need to do so. In case you were wondering where, Cabinet in February, thanks to a motion which was passed actually through Council, approved of a Tree Planting Strategy, which would replace trees taken down on public land, tree planting within that was also back-dated as well, so there were sixty six trees being replaced in total. There’s also been additional ones, since the storm for example we’ve had this year, and in which trees which came down within that, those ones will equally be replaced.

  • NP & P, Vol 2, No 2
    RANDOM NORTHAMPTONSHIRE' REMINISCENCES THE Mulsos held the manor of Finedon from 'the fifteenth century till the reign of Charles II, when it descended to the two daughters of TaIifield Mulso as co-heiresses. They married two brothers, Gilbert and John Dolben, sons of the Archbishop of York, who was himself the son of the Rev. William Dolben, Rector of Stanwick. John sold his moiety of the manor to Gilbert, who was created a baronet in 1704. The baronetcy descended from father to son for 'four generations. 1 My great-grandmother was the eldest daughter of the last baronet and married the Rev. Samuel Woodfield Paul in 1806. The Vicar of Finedon, Sir Charles Cave, was an absentee, so my great-grandfather bought the family living and he and his bride were able to settle down at once in the beautiful old Vicarage-just across the lawn from the Hall-and there , they and my grandparents after them lived till 1911, when my grandfather, the Rev. George WO'odfield Paul, who was Vicar of Finedon for sixty-three years, died at the age of ninety-one. My father, l;Ierbert Woodfield Paul, had originally been the heir to the Hall; but, after he had become a Liberal at Oxford undet the influence of Asquith, Mrs. Mackworth-Dolben1 disinherited him as a matter of principle. This never affected their relations and he always remained devoted to her-as I was when I was a little boy. I was christened at Finedon by my grandfather in the church in which he had christened my father and had himself been christened by his own; and I always looked upon Finedon as my home.
