Contacts Archives Family History The IEE was formed in 1871, as the Society of Telegraph Engineers, to promote the development of electrical engineering and to provide a place where electrical engineers could meet and exchange ideas.  Originally, most of its members were telegraph engineers, but it later broadened to cover power engineering and other emerging disciplines.  In 1988, the IEE merged with the Institution of Electronic and Radio Engineers (IERE).  Three years later, it merged with the Institution of Manufacturing Engineers (IMfgE), formerly the Institution of Production Engineers (IProdE). The IEE Archives contains many sources for family historians. We have some information on our members, although the amount generally depends on the member and how much they were involved in the IEE.  We have information on eminent engineers who left their archives to the IEE and on those who were involved in major engineering developments.  We also have the records of societies or companies that include information on individuals. If you want to know if a person was a past member of the IEE look for the use of MIEE (IEE Member), AMIEE (Associate Member) or FIEE (IEE Fellow) after their names.  They may also have been a Student or Graduate Member or an Associate or Companion.  Modern membership grades are Member, Fellow, Student Member and Affiliate, but classes and names have changed over time.

Declaration of Independence (Adopted in Congress 4 July 1776) The Unanimous Declaration of the Thirteen United States of America When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers form the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies without the consent of our legislature. He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states: For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world: For imposing taxes on us without our consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury: For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses: For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule in these colonies: For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments: For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burned our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare, is undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms: our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attention to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace friends. We, therefore, the representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare, that these united colonies are, and of right ought to be free and independent states; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as free and independent states, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.

John Hopkinson's Formula 1 Motor Racing Page Formula 1 ......News Last updated 9 May 2004 Headlines F1 living beyond its means.... 2004 Season - Another Ferrari benefit? .... BAR the most improved team?.... Montoya works out his contract with Williams.... ... 2004 Driver line uo Living beyond its means .... Stand by for a shake up Two of the movers and shakers of F1 - Bernie Ecclestone (Mr Fix-it of F1) and Max Moseley FIA President There are serious concerns that F1 is living beyond its means and that it is becoming more and more difficult for smaller teams not backed by the major motor manufactures to survive, and almost impossible for new teams to enter the sport. To overcome these difficulties, the sports governing body the FIA through its president Max Mosley are proposing significant rules changes which should help to reduce costs and encourage new entrants. The main changes are new smaller engines - 2.4 litre V8s which must last for two grand prix, the scrapping of all electronic aids, reduction in testing time, and the availablity of 'off the shelf' chassis, rather than each team manufacturing their own. The aim will be to increase the number of teams from 10 to 12. As might be expected there are differing views - there is the group who feel that F1 is the pinnacle of motor sport and should use all the technology that is available. The other view is that F1 is a spectator sport and must provide spectacle and this can only be done by increasing the number of cars and providing overtaking opportunities on the track - the driver should be the determining factor not the latest technology gizzmos.

Team Lotus - An unofficial history The rise and fall of a motor racing icon Colin Chapman and the early Lotus Years Anyone who has followed F1 motor racing for some years will have a strong impression of Team Lotus and Colin Chapman - both were icons of motor racing during the 1960s and 1970s. Colin Chapman enjoying the success of the early 1960s Colin Chapman started in a modest way having completed an engineering degree at London University. His training had been in aeronautical engineering but Chapman's aspirations led him in the direction of motor car design, particularly the design of elegant sports and competition cars. His first design was in 1948 for a trials car. Lotus cars was established by Chapman at Cheshunt, just to the north of London. Lotus cars gained a reputation for being innovative and successful in competitions. The late 1950s were a time of transition in F1, the big front engined Vanwalls and Ferraris were about to give way to rear engined designs. Credit must go to John Cooper for producing a successful rear engined design and to set the general layout pattern for F1 cars to the present day. Chapman's first Lotus F1 car was front engined, although Cooper had already demonstrated a successful rear engined car. Chapman quickly realised that the future lay with the rear engined designs.
