Homesick......

The other days as I traipsed quickly from the porch door to the front door, I had a sudden wave of homesickness......a longing for a place I use to visit......
the Front Porch!

A longing to be able to sit on the front porch and feel the warm breezes, to be able to curl up on the settee with a book, to be able to listen to the chirping of the birds while munching breakfast.

I thought a little tour of the porch was just what I needed! Want to come along?

It started as a blank slate - Sitting Pretty
Finally furnished like I dreamed - The Front Porch
Enjoying the porch more them I imagined - Pinwheels
All decked out for Christmas - I Heard the Bells
A bit of rearranging- A Bit of Yellow
Red, White and Blue - Happy 4th of July
Last spring and summer - A Sure Sign of Spring

It shouldn't be too long before we can Spring Clean the porch and enjoy sitting out there again!

[MAKALE] 01.02.17 BTS V ve Kim Taehyung Arasındaki Çizgi

İdoller oyunculuk kariyerlerine de başladıklarında  genellikle sahne isimleri yerine kendi isimlerini kullanıyor. Bu kararlılıklarını ve imajlarının farklı bir yanını göstermek ve idollere karşı sahip olduğumuz genel yargıdan kaçmak için olabilir.

BTS’ten V de, KBS2 ''Hwarang'' ile Aralık'ta aktör olarak çıkış yaptığında kendi gerçek ismi ''Kim Taehyung''u kullandı. İlginç olan şey şu ki, idol olan V'nin  özellikleri Kim Taehyung tarafından canlandırılan ''Hansung'' karakterinde bezenmiş.

''Hwarang'', aşkı ve Hwarangdo'nun Silla dönemindeki gelişimini anlatan bir gençlik tarih dizisi. Ana karakterler Park Seojoon'un canlandırdığı Moomyeong (Sunwoo), Park Hyungsik'in canlandırdığı Sammaekjong (Kral Jinheung) ve iki erkek ana karakterin aşık olduğu, Go Ara'nın canlandırdığı Aro. Ana karakterle birlikte Banryu (Do Jihan), Sooho (Choi Minho) ve Yeowool (Cho Yoonwo) gibi üç yakışıklı Hwarang daha var. Bu yüzden Hansung'un kısmı az. Her bölümde 5 dakikadan daha az görünmesi bu yüzden.

Yine de Hansung'ın varlığı sıradışı. Aşk üçgeni ve politik olayların başı çektiği Hwarang'ta, izleyiciler Hansung'un görünüşünün dizi için vitamin gibi olduğunu belirtti.

Hansung, değişik fikirlere sahip olan karakteriyle fazla meraklı bir Jingol aristokratı. Sıcak ve arkadaş canlısı kişiliğiyle nereye giderse gitsin dengeli ilişkilerin mimarlığını yapıyor. Hansung'ın karakteri idol V'ye oldukça benzer. Grubu BTS arasında V'nin adı ''Arkadaşlığın Kralı''. Takma adı onun arkadaş canlılığını destekler nitelikte. ''Hwarang'' oyuncuları bile V'nin kişiliğinin aegyo(tatlılık) dolu olduğuna onay verdi.

Aynı zamanda Hansung'un kendi hikayesi de var. Abisi Danse (Kim Hyunjoon) yarı soylu. Hansung'ta biraz suçluluk ve kıskançlık hissi sezilebilir çünkü kendisinden daha yetenekli olan abisi konumu yüzünden daha yüksek bir seviyeye çıkamıyor. Dahası, ailesini yansıtırken taşıdığı sorumluluk ve yük hissi büyük.

Aktör Kim Taehyung gözleriyle Hansung'ın bastırılmış duygularını ifade ediyor. 14'ünde yayınlanan 14. bölümde Hansung, büyükbabası Danse'yi kamçılandığında sessizlik içinde gözyaşı döktü. Büyükbabası Hansung'a bakarak, ''O senin yüzünden bu darbeleri alıyor.'' dedi ve Hansung, ''Peki, büyükbaba.'' diye korku içinde tityerek cevapladı.

Kim Taehyung'ın oyunculuğu başından beri reddettiği Hwarang'a katılmaya karar verdiği 4.bölümde karışık duygularını bastırmaya çalışarak ve 12. bölümde abisi Danse'ye, ''Konumumuz doğumda değişmeliydi.'' diye bağırdığında parlamıştı. ''Hwarang''ın çıkış dizisi olduğunu ele alırsak, üzüntü ve öfkeyi ifade eden gözleri beklentimizin üzerindeydi.

V ve Kim Taehyung arasında durarak, Hansung ile güzel bir başlangıç yaptı. Daha iyi bir aktör olabilmek için geliştirmesi gereken bazı alanlar elbette var ama tarihi bir diziyle çıkış yapmayı seçtiğini düşünürsek, gelecekte daha bir performansı beklemekteyiz. İlikleyebileceği* sonraki rolü ne olabilir?

(A/N: Korece'de 'ilk düğmeyi iyi iliklemek' (첫 단추를 잘 꿰다) gibi 'iyi bir başlangıca adım atmak' anlamına benzer bir ifade var.)

Vücut Yağ Oranı Nasıl Ölçülür?

Vücut yağ oranını hesaplamanın birden çok yöntemi vardır. Bu yöntemlerden bir yada bir kaç tanesini uygulayarak vücut yağ oranınızı bulabilirsiniz. Kendinize aylık veya haftalık olarak küçük hedefler koyabilir ve belirlediğiniz zaman aralıklarında yağ oranınızı ölçerek bu hedeflere ulaşmaya çalışabilirsiniz. Unutmayın; "en büyük rakibiniz sizsiniz".

Tartılar

Bazı profesyonel tartılar sizin sadece vücut ağırlığınızı hesaplamakla kalmayıp, aynı zamanda sizin vücut yağ oranınızı ve daha bir çok bilgiyi detaylı bir şekilde sunabilir. Ancak bu tartılara yaşınız, boyunuz gibi detaylı bilgiler girmeniz gerekir ve her ne kadar profesyonel olsalar da kesin bir sonuç veremezler. Ama yinede aşağı yukarı doğru bir değer sunabilirler.

Caliper

Eski vücut geliştirmeciler tarafından sıklıkla kullanılan bir yöntemdir. Caliper (görseldeki alet) adı verilen alet yardımı ile vücudun çeşitli yerlerinin deri kalınlığı ölçülür. Ölçülen değer ise çeşitli hesaplama yöntemleri ile yağ oranına çevrilir. Her ne kadar eski bir yöntem olsa da tartıdan daha iyi sonuçlar verebilir.

Ayna

Tüm bunların yanı sıra her zaman için en pratik ve kesin sonuç veren yöntem aynadaki görüntünüzdür. Aşağıda vermiş olduğum görsele bakarak kendi vücudunuzu kıyaslayabilir ve yağ oranınızı bulabilirsiniz. Bunu yaparken objektif olmalı ve bir kaç arkadaşınıza sorarak onların fikrini alabilirsiniz. Bu şekilde daha kesin bir sonuca varabilirsiniz.

Not : Bu yöntemlerin hiçbiri profesyonel anlamda kesin bir değer veremez. Ancak yaklaşık değerler verebilirler. Çok düşük yağ oranları ve çok yüksek yağ oranları sağlığınız için sakıncalı olabilir. Bu nedenle çoğunlukla 10-15 arasında durmaya gayret gösterin. Yaz aylarında tek haneli rakamlara düşebilirsiniz.

Red Clay Valley Marshall Families -- Part 1

As I've been busy lately with other projects, Robert Wilhelm has stepped up with a couple of fantastic guest posts about the Marshall family, which, frankly, I would have never been able to write. This first post covers the early history of the family, as well as the brothers who engaged in the iron and kaolin businesses. The next post will cover the paper and fibre side of the family. Huge thanks to Robert, and I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.


By Robert E. Wilhelm, Jr.

Marshall's Bridge, Kennett Township, PA

Most Delawareans are well aware of the DuPont Company and how the company evolved and came to prominence after Victor Marie du Pont and Éleuthère Irénée du Pont, emigrated from France in 1800 to the young United States. Some folks may be aware that the first machine-made paper produced in this country was manufactured at the Gilpin Mill north of Wilmington on Brandywine Creek in 1803. Delawareans generally don’t know that the second iron rolling mill in the colonies was built at Wooddale and that the first Prussian iron, zinc sheet, and tin sheet manufactured in North America came from Wooddale. However, predating the DuPont’s arrival in the area, are the Garrett and Marshall families. Both families contributed significantly to Delaware’s early industrial age heritage.

Arriving in the early 1700s, John Garrett purchased five tracts of William Penn’s Letitia Manor in the 1720s and settled in the “upper county of the three lower counties of the Province of Pennsylvania” (now known as Yorklyn, DE). Garrett and four neighbors constructed and operated a grist mill at the present site of Marshall Brothers Mill now part of the property of Delaware’s newest state park, Auburn Heights Preserve. The Garrett family went on to build a snuff empire a half-mile downstream on the Red Clay that by 1900 produced a third of the world’s supply of snuff. After the forming of the United States and Delaware in 1776, the area the Garretts settled became known as Auburn, DE.

If one does any research related to the name “Marshall” they find numerous geological and historical references associated with the surname. The Marshall name dates back over one thousand years with origins in England. In the 1600’s many Marshall families emigrated to the North American colonies to escape the political and religious suppressions they faced in England. In the early 1800’s the greatest concentration of families named Marshall occurred in New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio.

While much has been documented about the DuPont Company and there are books devoted to the Garrett Snuff Company, little has been written on the early beginnings of the Marshall family. A fifth-generation Marshall, Robert Marshall, raised five children. The eldest two sons, Caleb and John, took an interest in the iron rolling business and together pioneer the making of galvanized iron leading to the naming of the area, Marshallton, DE. The youngest son, Thomas Smedley, remains in Pennsylvania at what becomes known as the “Homestead Mill” on the family property in Kennett Township and learns the papermaking trade. Thomas’ sons develop and perfect industrial papermaking and go on to revolutionize the production of vulcanized fibre. The third eldest son, Abner, settles in Delaware as a farmer but turns miner when a unique mineral resource is discovered while he plows a field.

[Note: There are a lot of repeated given names throughout the generations of Marshall so to keep them straight this article will use a numerical subscript after the given name to designate the generation. ‘0’ is the John₀ Marshall that lived his life in England while John₁ was born in England and immigrated to the colonies. John₃ is the Marshall settling in Kennett Township.]

Marshall Arrival in Philadelphia

There were many families with the Marshall surname migrating from England to the newly forming colonies in North America in the mid-1600’s. The Marshall family home was at Elton, in northwest Derbyshire, where most of the family was converted to Quakerism between 1655 and 1680. John₁Marshall (1661-1729), son of John₀ and Mary Marshall, was born in Derbyshire, England in 1661 and at the age of 23 crossed the Atlantic to settle in Blockley Township in what was then known as the Province of Pennsylvania (in 1854 Blockley was absorbed into the city of Philadelphia).

After about a year John₁ moved to Darby, Delaware County, Pennsylvania Province. He married Sarah Smith in 1688 which became the first wedding conducted at the Darby Friends’ Meeting House after its recent erection. John’s₁ cousin was noted horticulturist and botanist Abraham Marshall who had settled in West Bradford, Chester County, Pennsylvania Province. John₁ and Sarah had three children, John₂ (1690-1740), William₂ (1692-1727), and Thomas₂ (1694-1740). John₁and his wife would own several hundred acres of land along Cobb’s Creek in what is now Upper Darby.

Thomas₂ Marshall would marry Hannah Mendenhall and together they would raise nine children. Those nine children were named: Ann₃ Marshall [Hickman] (1719-1819; 11 children – Benjamin, Lewis, Mary, Moses, William, Hannah, Sarah, Ann, Thomas, Joseph, Francis), Sarah₃ Marshall (1721-1729), Benjamin₃ Marshall (1722-1745; 2 children – Thomas & William), Moses₃Marshall (1725-1729), Thomas₃Marshall (1727-1759; 4 children – Esther, Hannah, Thomas, Phebe), Martha₃Marshall [Levis] (1729-1804; 3 children – Elizabeth, Hannah, William), Hannah₃Marshall [Way] (1730-1802; 10 children – Phebe, Thomas, Caleb, Martha, Hannah, Ann, Mary Joshua, Lydia, David), John₃ Marshall (1734-1815; 2 children by first wife – Mary₄, Martha₄; 6 children by second wife – Thomas₄, Robert₄, Hannah₄, Ann₄, Martha₄, William₄), and Mary₃ Marshall [James] (1738-1790; 7 children – Aaron, Hannah, Sarah, Joseph, Mary, Caleb, Martha). One can imagine the “which one” responses at a Thomas and Hannah Marshall family outing should someone call out “Thomas”, “John”, “Ann” or “William”!

John₃ Marshall, the eighth child of Thomas₂ and Hannah, would marry and have two children before his wife dies in 1764. He and his two girls learn of a 174-acre property known as Joshua Taylor’s Mill that is available for $1,090 from Joseph Pierce and James Bennett who were settling William Levis' estate. The farm was located where the east and west tributaries of the Red Clay Creek joined to flow south into what was known as “the three lower counties of the Province of Pennsylvania” (today Delaware).

The Marshall home, today

Fed by numerous springs along the route, the Red Clay joins the waters of the White Clay Creek which eventually fed the Christiana River and later the Delaware River. After Brandywine Creek, the Red Clay Creek was the territory’s most industrialized waterway followed by White Clay Creek. By draining the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, the Red Clay flowed year-round with a sufficient volume to power the many mills dotted along its banks. Water power reigned supreme in the 18^th century and the farm John₃ purchased included a mill site on the Red Clay were the creek developed sufficient year-round flow to support a milling operation. In future years, John’s₃ son (Robert₄) and grandchildren (Caleb₅, John₅, Thomas₅) find the waters of the Red Clay of ideal purity for the manufacture of the specialty papers and strong enough to power their sheet iron rolling mills.

Marshall Arrival in Kennett Township

John₃ purchases the Joshua Taylor property in Kennett Township (established in the early 1700s) and he and his daughters relocate from Concordville where he had settled after his first marriage in 1765. John₃ continues operating the saw mill on the former Taylor property located just below the convergence of the East and West branches of the Red Clay Creek. Naming the farm "Marshallvale", the log cabin farm house on the property dates from the 1600s when the property was part of the William Penn lands known as “Letitia Manor”. John₃ builds a stone addition to the farm home in 1767 and marries Susanna Lamborn in 1768. They raise six additional children (noted above) in addition to John’s₃ two girls from his first marriage.

John₃ adds a stone construction flour mill to the property and his family continues the sawing of lumber and the milling of flour and other grains. After John₃ passed away in 1815, his son Robert₄ (1771-1859) inherits Marshallvale and continues operating primarily the grist mill. Robert₄ marries Mary Hoopes (1781-1825) and together they raise five children; Caleb₅H Marshall (1806-1888), John₅Marshall (1808-1885), Martha₅Marshall (1810-1890), Abner₅Marshall (1814-?) and Thomas₅Smedley Marshall (1818-1887). Robert₄and his family continue operating Marshallvale as a grist and saw milling operation however his sons have begun to take interest in the manufacture of paper and iron sheet materials.

Caleb & John Marshall – Galvanized Sheet Iron

John₅, Robert’s₄ second son, purchased the Hershey Grist Mill (originally constructed circa 1725) on the Red Clay Creek in 1836 halfway between Greenbank and Kiamensi, DE (known as Hershey’s Bridge in that era before becoming Marshallton). The mill had belonged to Solomon Hershey (built on property owned by the Hershey family since 1746) until 1801 when he willed it to his sons Isaac and Benjamin. It included automated milling equipment built by Oliver Evans capable of 2,000 barrels of flower in a season. After John Marshall marries the daughter of John C. Phillips, the Greenbank miller, they operate the grist mill for a number of years.

Marshall Iron Works, after later improvements

Alongside the grist mill, a sheet iron rolling mill is constructed. It is the second iron rolling mill on the Red Clay Creek (James Wood and his son Alan had been operating Delaware Iron Works at Wooddale since the early 1800s). By 1856 the Marshall rolling mill is producing 393 tons of sheet iron a year using two puddling furnaces, two heating furnaces, and a single train of rollers. The Marshall Iron Works mill would see multiple changes in ownership over ensuing years and eventually becomes a paper and vulcanized fibre mill at the start of the 1900s. In later years, as a result of consolidations within the vulcanized fibre industry, the former Marshall iron rolling mill site returns to Marshall family ownership, this time owned by the paper and fibre Marshalls in Yorklyn.

Caleb₅, Robert’s₄ eldest son, moved to Philadelphia in 1856 and established the Penn Treaty Iron Works manufactory with a rolling mill at 24 Girard Avenue. The works had three heating furnaces, a high puddle mill, a high bar mill, and a 26” x 36” and five 24” x 32” tinplate mills all working hot materials. There are also six 20” x 36” cold mills. The facility included plating facilities and had an annual capacity of 7,500 gross tons.

Caleb₅ Marshall took an interest in perfecting the coating of iron sheet following along with the ideas the Wood family had done at Wooddale. Alan Wood had patented “Prussian Iron” which was the first rust-resistant sheet materials manufactured in the United States. The Wood family perfected and patented various machines for the working and rolling of iron into sheets. Caleb₅ pioneered and patented the making of galvanized sheet becoming the first to do so in the US. He also improved and patented processes related to the tin plating of iron sheet. Like Wood, Marshall patented various machines and furnace arrangements associated with the rolling and coating of iron sheets.

In 1878 Alfred₆ Marshall, Caleb’s₅son, with his two brothers, Wilmer₆ W. Marshall and James₆Howard Marshall, purchased their father's and uncle's interest in the business, now with offices at Beach and Marlborough Streets in Philadelphia. They sold their patented galvanized iron sheet materials under the “Penn Treaty”, “Girard”, and “Marshall” names (“Marshall” was trademarked). In 1892 they began the manufacture of tin plate, establishing the first plant for this industry east of the Alleghenies. The firm sells the tin plate department in 1898 to the American Tin Plate Company.

Abner Marshall – Kaolin Mining

We’ve talked about the two oldest of Robert’s₄sons, however, the third son, Abner₅ was as entrepreneurial as his brothers.  Abner₅ discovered a deep vein of Kaolin clay in late 1854 on his property while plowing. While Kaolin mining had been occurring in Chester County for a couple decades, Abner₆Marshall is the first to have discovered mineable Kaolin in Delaware. He became the first to mine Kaolin in the Hockessin-Yorklyn area as a result. His site was located about halfway between Old Wilmington Road and Creek Road to the southeast of Yorklyn Road. His clay was offered for sale in soft brick form that could be turned into china and pottery.

In 1866, Abner₆ sold the 10-acre property containing the Kaolin deposit and mining operation to Thomas Trucks and Charles Parker. Forming Trucks & Parker the mine continued operation until the mid-1870s when it began to play out. In 1874 a ton of Kaolin clay would sell for $20. The property eventually ended up with the Diamond State Kaolin Works shortly after the Wilmington & Western Rail Road began operating near the property.

With the Kaolin veins becoming depleted, eventually the property sold again to Golding & Company who had a much larger operation in the vicinity of where Old Wilmington Road crosses over the B&O’s former Landenberg Branch.  Golding never mined the former Diamond State Kaolin Works property, instead concentrating on their Kaolin veins until the 1940s.

In our next installment, we’ll take a look at the papermaking and vulcanized fibre side of the Marshall family.

Bringing the Great Detective to Life

If you’ve been seeing pictures of your Sherlockian friends posed with the new Life magazine publication “Sherlock Holmes: The Story Behind the World’s Greatest Detective,” you may wonder whether it’s worth picking up a copy. In my opinion, it is.

 

For veteran admirers of the supersleuth, or even well-read neophytes, there’s little new in the five-chapter, 96-page magazine. But the story of the detective who never lived and so can never die is told in a very engaging fashion with no more than the usual number of minor errors. The writers may not be experts in the subject matter, but they talked to four Baker Street Irregulars who are: Otto Penzler, Leslie Klinger, Lyndsay Faye, and Mattias Boström.

 

Most of the magazine is devoted to the story of Sherlock Holmes from the point of view of his creator, but chapter five concerns what might be called the sleuth’s afterlife – fandom and dramatic presentations and re-imaginings of the sleuth of Baker Street. The weakness here is lack of attention to Jeremy Brett, although contemporary screen Sherlocks are covered. 

 

Not incidentally, this is a beautiful publication, lavishly illustrated throughout with striking photos – many of them new – and well worth revisiting just to look at. In short, it does not disappoint.
