Information about words in this company name or address

langley

This famous and noble surname is of pre 8th century Anglo-Saxon origins, and whilst generally considered locational from one of the English villages called Langley or Longley, may also be Norse-Viking. In the latter case the derivation is from an early Norwegian female baptismal name ''Langlif'' which curiously does mean what it sounds ''Long life''. The village names are found in the 1086 Domesday Book as ''Langelei, Langeleie, and Longelei'' and all have the same meaning of ''the long glade''. This probably referred to an area of ground cut from the forest, and cultivated. Be this as it may, the fact is that all the early records refer to landowners such as Thomas de Langeleye of Oxford in 1273, and Simon de Longeley of Yorkshire in 1297. A Geoffrey Langley appears in the London Rolls of 1281, whilst the the fifth son of King Edward 111 (1312-1377) was Edmund de Langley (1341 - 1402), and on this gentleman was conferred the title of 1st Duke of York in 1385. Another famous name holder in the same period was Thomas Langley, who was appointed Chancellor to King Henry 1V in 1405, and bishop of Durham in 1406.

A national park is a reserve of land, usually, but not always declared and owned by a national government, protected from most human development and pollution. National parks are a protected area of IUCN category II. The largest national park in the world is the Northeast Greenland National Park, which was established in 1974.

In the United States the concept of preserving landscapes for the pleasure of the people was established on June 30, 1864, when President Abraham Lincoln signed the bill creating the Yosemite Grant. A policy of preservation, rather than co-usage as in the National Forests, where grazing, farming and logging are licensed, was implemented four decades later during the presidential administration of Teddy Roosevelt, and Yosemite became a national park. Tourism and, later, recreation were the intended purposes of the lands Roosevelt set aside in the system. John Muir was instrumental in this effort.

These parks were termed national parks and today are looked after by the U.S. National Park Service. There are also national parks in many other countries

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.
