In light of the scholarly reappraisals engendered by the higher criticism this is a most remarkable statement, particularly coming from one who was well known for his antifundamentalist views.

In 1943, during World War II, HM Fort Roughs was constructed by the United Kingdom as one of the Maunsell Forts, primarily for defence against German mine-laying aircraft that might be targeting the estuaries that were part of vital shipping lanes ; it comprised a floating pontoon base with a superstructure of two hollow towers joined by a deck upon which other structures could be added.

In 2008 the total cost was revised upwards to £ 180M, and projections for finishing the job to 2012. In a report produced by JE Jacobs, Grant Thornton and Faber Maunsell in 2007 which reviewed the alternative options for a second road crossing, it was stated that the estimated working life of the Forth Bridge was in excess of 100 years.

In July 2005 the winning design was chosen, by Faber Maunsell and Hugh Broughton Architects.

Its first representatives were John le Clerk and Stephen Maunsell, who were elected to the parliament of King Edward I in 1298, but for some reason or other no subsequent return was made until 1640, when the privilege was again resumed by order of the House of Commons.

The contractor's designer was G Maunsell & Partners of London.

His first contribution to the Southern Railway was to oversee the construction of three 350 hp six-wheeled diesel-electric shunters ordered by Maunsell in 1936 ; three of these were built and proved effective, with a subsequent order being placed for eight more, though this was subsequently cancelled due to the onset of the Second World War.

There were two Chief Mechanical Engineers ; Richard Maunsell between 1923 and 1937 and Oliver Bulleid from 1937 to 1948, both of whom designed new locomotives and rolling stock to replace much of that which was inherited in 1923.

Maunsell was responsible for initial attempts at locomotive standardisation on the Southern, as well as overseeing the introduction of electric traction.

Sir John Maunsell ( c. 1190 / 1195 – 1265 ), also Sir John Mansel, Provost of Beverley, was king's clerk, and a judge.

John Maunsell is first heard of when he was sent from Scotland as orator from Alexander, King of Scotland in 1215 to the court of John.

John Maunsell died 20 January 1265 in Florence and was buried in York Minster.

The design and construct portion of the contract valued at A $ 1. 8 billion was awarded to a joint venture between ABI Group and Leighton Contractors ( ALJV ) with design work undertaken by a further joint venture by Maunsell Australia and SMEC ( Snowy Mountains Electricity Company ) with further subcontracting to other designers ( Arup ) and independent verification by Sinclair Knight Merz ( SKM ).

After 1861 it was leased by Richard Maunsell of Oakley Park.

The naval fort design was the latest of several that Maunsell had devised in response to Admiralty inquiries.

The superstructure was designed by Redpath Dorman Long and G Maunsell & Partners.

Harry Wainwright was replaced by Richard Maunsell as Locomotive Superintendent in 1913.

Guy Anson Maunsell ( born September 1, 1884-June 20, 1961 ) was the British civil engineer responsible for the design of the World War II Naval Sea Forts and Army Forts used by the United Kingdom for the defence of the Thames and Mersey estuaries.

The Trades Disputes Act 1927 was repealed, and a Dock Labour Scheme was introduced in 1947 to put an end to the casual system of hiring labour in the docks, Wages for members of the police force were significantly increased.

The introduction of a Miner ’ s Charter in 1946 instituted a five-day work week for miners and a standardised day wage structure, and in 1948 a Colliery Workers Supplementary Scheme was approved, providing supplementary allowances to disabled coal-workers and their dependants.

An Emergency Training Scheme was also introduced which turned out an extra 25, 000 teachers in 1945-51.

Scheme introduced the sole use of lexically scoped variables to Lisp ; an inspiration from ALGOL 68 which was widely recognized as a good idea.

This arrangement continued until as late as 1965, although it was somewhat regularised after the creation of the National Dock Labour Scheme in 1947.

Unlike Common Lisp, Scheme existed at the time Stallman was rewriting Gosling Emacs into GNU Emacs, but he chose not to use it because of its comparatively poor performance on workstations, and he wanted to develop a dialect which he thought would be more easily optimized.

Jarvis Island was reclaimed by the United States government and colonized from 26 March 1935 onwards, under the Baker, Howland and Jarvis Colonization Scheme ( see also Howland Island and Baker Island ).

There was a special case established under the State Management Scheme where the brewery and licensed premises were bought and run by the state until 1973, most notably in Carlisle.

Scheme was developed at the MIT AI Lab by Guy L. Steele and Gerald Jay Sussman who introduced it to the academic world via a series of memos, now referred to as the Lambda Papers, over the period 1975 – 1980.

Scheme was the first dialect of Lisp to choose lexical scope and the first to require implementations to perform tail-call optimization.

" Scheme was originally called " Schemer ", in the tradition of other Lisp-derived languages like Planner or Conniver.

In 1998 Sussman and Steele remarked that the minimalism of Scheme was not a conscious design goal, but rather the unintended outcome of the design process.

Waits was later quoted as jokingly saying the company got the name of the song wrong, thinking it was called " Innocent When You Scheme ".

The pipeline, known as the Goldfields Water Supply Scheme, was completed in 1903.

It was also used to implement other programming languages, such as Planner and Scheme.

That same year, a Pneumoconiosis, Byssinosis and Miscellaneous Diseases Benefit Scheme was introduced.

It too was a unification of earlier work, such as the two UK approaches ( the CESG UK Evaluation Scheme aimed at the defence / intelligence market and the DTI Green Book aimed at commercial use ), and was adopted by some other countries, e. g. Australia.

This usage was subsequently adopted by Sussman and Steele when they defined Scheme in 1975, and became widespread.
