  • Vice-Chancellor's Awards 2015
    TEAM AWARDS 1. Virtual Open Day Team This award recognises Doug Poole and Sara Mailis as the creators of the University’s virtual open day. A dynamic and interactive application that supports the global growth of the University and plays a key role in our student recruitment campaigns. It allows prospective students from all over the world a chance to explore our campuses and experience what life at Southampton would be like for them, regardless of their location, time zone, or device. This is truly ground-breaking work that is having a demonstrably positive impact on the student recruitment journey both for UK and international students. Apart from creativity and excellence of delivery both Doug and Sara have had to work collaboratively with external providers and many colleagues and students across the whole University community to achieve their goal. This team and their work show that a small project, well-executed, can provide an outcome that has a global influence that benefits the whole University, not just their own area. 1 24 July 2015 2. Public Engagement with Research Unit This team award recognises that Steve and Jo have driven and coordinated the University’s public engagement in research (PER) activity since 2011. They organised and delivered the annual Bringing Research to Life roadshow programme encouraging and supporting researchers to take their science to festivals of all types: from Cheltenham to Glastonbury, Bestival to the Winchester Science Festival, the Big Bang to the University’s Science and Engineering day. The primary initiative and drive, the creativity and infectious enthusiasm, came from them.

  • Neolithic & Early Bronze Age Isle of Wight
    Neolithic to Early Bronze Age Resource Assessment The Isle of Wight Ruth Waller, Isle of Wight County Archaeology and Historic Environment Service September 2006 Inheritance: The map of Mesolithic finds on the Isle of Wight shows concentrations of activity in the major river valleys as well two clusters on the north coast around the Newtown Estuary and Wooton to Quarr beaches. Although the latter is likely due to the results of a long term research project, it nevertheless shows an interaction with the river valleys and coastal areas best suited for occupation in the Mesolithic period. In the last synthesis of Neolithic evidence (Basford 1980), it was claimed that Neolithic activity appears to follow the same pattern along the three major rivers with the Western Yar activity centred in an area around the chalk gap, flint scatters along the River Medina and greensand activity along the Eastern Yar. The map of Neolithic activity today shows a much more widely dispersed pattern with clear concentrations around the river valleys, but with clusters of activity around the mouths of the four northern estuaries and along the south coast. As most of the Bronze Age remains recorded on the SMR are not securely dated, it has been difficult to divide the Early from the Late Bronze Age remains. All burial barrows and findspots have been included within this period assessment rather than the Later Bronze Age assessment. Nature of the evidence base: 235 Neolithic records on the County SMR with 202 of these being artefacts, including 77 flint or stone polished axes and four sites at which pottery has been recovered.

  • Screening Review of the Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014
    Cabinet 8 September 2020 Screening Review of the Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014 For Decision Portfolio Holder: Cllr D Walsh, Planning Local Councillor(s): All Wards Executive Director: John Sellgren, Executive Director of Place Report Author: Trevor Badley Title: Lead Project Officer (Minerals & Waste) Tel: 01305 224675 Email: [email protected] Report Status: Public Recommendation: That: i) it be noted that following Screening of the Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014 for Review, a full or partial Review of the Minerals Strategy will not be undertaken this year. Officers will continue monitoring the Minerals Strategy 2014 and it will be screened again in 2021. ii) the Dorset Council Local Development Scheme is updated accordingly to reflect these actions. iii) the 2020 Review of the Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014 , attached as an Appendix to this report, is made publicly available. Reason for Recommendation: Paragraph 33 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2019 requires that a local plan should be reviewed after five years to consider whether a formal full or partial Plan Review is required. To ensure that Dorset Council complies with this requirement, the Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014 was screened to assess whether a full or partial Review was required. It was found that a Review did not need to be initiated this year. The Dorset Council Local Development Scheme needs to be updated to reflect this, and planning guidance requires that the report of the screening exercise is made publicly available. 1. Executive Summary The Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole Minerals Strategy 2014 (MS) was adopted more than five years ago, and as required by the National Planning Policy Framework 2019 it has been assessed to determine whether a formal full (the whole document) or partial (only selected policies) Review is required.

He was baptized on July 28, 1918 in Saint Joseph Church in Marysville by Father James Grealy. His baptismal sponsors were James and Elizabeth McElroy. Jim was confirmed by Bishop Robert Armstrong on February 15, 1931. JAMES BEGINS HIS PRIMARY EDUCATION In September 1924, at the age of 6 years, James began his primary education at Notre Dame Catholic Grammar School in Marysville which was staffed by the Notre Dame Sisters. After completing the fifth grade in 1929, Jim’s parents sent him to Saint Catherine Academy in Benicia for his three years of junior high where he graduated from the eighth grade in the spring of 1932. Photo from the St Catherine, Benicia Website Saint Catherine Academy, Benicia, California BEGINNING OF HIGH SCHOOL In September of 1932, Jim transferred to Saint Joseph College Seminary in Mountain View where he began his four years of high school, graduating in June 1936.

I should first apologise for having moved the venue for this cruise to the Solent. Having promised a cruise in Zeeland, which would have been a new experience for the Corinthians, I found the risk of exposing skippers to significant fines from the customs authorities, particularly in Belgium, unacceptable. The “red diesel” argument rumbles on with no sign that it will be satisfactorily resolved any time soon. If you were in any doubt, the reason for the name, Solent Jubilee, is to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of the Accession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Research Contacts: Defra: Daniel Johns [email protected] Environment Agency: Martin Smalls [email protected] Maslen Environmental: Steve Maslen [email protected] Case Study 10 BournemouthPooleSwan_BeachRep - FD2635.doc 1 1 Case Study: Bournemouth, Poole Bay & Swanage Beach Replenishment 1.1 Introduction 1.1.1 Description The standard of flood and coast protection at Bournemouth, Poole Bay and Swanage depends mainly on the level and width of the beaches. The introduction of hard engineering solutions such as seawalls over the last century has prevented the natural supply of beach material from cliff erosion and it is necessary to occasionally replace the loss of beach material lost to longshore drift. Therefore, over the past 30 years (between 1970-2000) almost 2 million m3 of sand was used to replenish the beaches at Bournemouth and Poole. Figure 1. Map to show the extent of the scheme. Source: David Robson, Borough of Poole Council, 2010 The on-going need for beach replenishment was first identified in the Poole and Christchurch Shoreline Management Plan 1999, and a subsequent report by Halcrow (2004) that suggested that a further 3 million m3 will be required over the next 50 years to maintain protective beach levels and widths.
