Property Name:
John Churchman House
Date Listed:
Inventory No.:
115, Churchman Lane, Rising Sun, Cecil County
The John Churchman House consists of two distinct sections. The east half is a two-story, three-bay, gable-roofed brick house laid in Flemish bond with dark glazed headers on three sides and the date 1745 in glazed headers on the east gable end. The west half is a two-story, two-bay, gable-roofed house built in 1785 of uncoursed fieldstone. Facing south, the brick portion has a door in the center bay of each floor, the first floor's 6-panel door being surmounted by a 4-light transom. The second floor door formerly opened out to a small balcony. Windows on the first floor are 9/6 sash, while those on the second floor are 6/6. The north facade holds a central door with a narrow 4/4 sash window in the extreme western end of the first floor, and an off-center 6/6 window on the second floor. The east gable end holds a window on each floor (6/9 below, 6/6 above) and a flush chimney to the north of the ridgeline. The 1745 date is picked out in glazed headers in the attic level. A pent eave roof separates the first and second stories on the south and east facades. The first floor interior of the brick house is an important survival of early colonial plan and woodwork. The main dining space, essentially a cross-passage, is the larger of the two rooms and has opposing front and back doors. The stair is located in the west wall of the cross passage and is encased by a fully paneled wall with distinctive wrought hardware. The parlor room features a diagonal hearth with mantel shelf and built-in corner cupboard with original cornice and bran escutcheon. The mantel bears the initials of the carpenter, Hezekiah Rowles, on the face. The stone half of the building is two bays wide, with a door in the east bay of the south facade, and a 9/6 window in the west bay, with two 6/6 windows on the second floor. There is a large keystone lintel above the cellar window below the 9/6 window. The west gable end has two 6/6 windows on either floor and small square windows in the attic gable flanking the interior brick chimney. The attic level of this half of the building was altered in the early 20th century when the roof level was changed to line up with that of the brick portion. The present paired attic windows are restorations, as is the chimney. The north facade has a door in the east bay and no opening in the west, with two 6/6 windows above. This portion of the building is wider than the brick portion, extending farther to the north. Pent roofs originally separated the first and second stories on the south and west facades of the stone portion. This has been partially restored on the south facade. The floor plan of the stone section consists of two rooms arranged front to back on each floor with a stairway rising form the back to back corner fireplaces. Each fireplace wall has a small cupboard; one fireplace also has a small built-in drawer. There is a cellar with partial brick floor, as well as a cooking fireplace with its original crane, remains of a beehive oven, and a dumbwaiter to the first floor. Although both halves of the house suffered alterations in the early 1900s and some physical deterioration for many years thereafter, the house has been partially restored according to structural evidence and old photographs. Nevertheless the house retains most of its original appearance on both the exterior and interior.
The John Churchman house is significant for two reasons. Architecturally it is a rare and important early example of the Pennsylvania Quaker tradition in 18th century Maryland architecture. Among the distinguishing features of this tradition are the remains of pent eaves, a second story door on the brick half, and the elaborate use of Flemish bond with glazed headers. The brick half also contains a wealth of well-preserved original (1745) woodwork including a paneled stairwall, mantels, and a corner cupboard. Although there are other examples of such early Colonial woodwork in Cecil County, its appearance in a house of these modest proportions is highly unusual. Also noteworthy is its attribution to the carpenter Hezekiah Rowles, whose work elsewhere in the immediate area is well documented. Secondly, the house is important for its definite associations with several generations of the locally prominent Churchman family, a number of whose members were important in the religious and educational history of Maryland-Pennsylvania Quakers in the 18th century. John Churchman, Jr., the builder of the 1745 section and son of the original settlers of this area was a well-traveled Quaker minister whose published accounts of religious journeys in Britain and Europe were widely read. His son, George, builder of the 1785 half, was also a Quaker minister, clerk of the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, and a founder of the Westtown Friends School near Philadelphia. His son, John III, was an internationally known geographer and scientist, who published a map of the Delaware peninsula, explored the properties of magnetic north, and along with Benjamin Franklin, was one of the first Americans elected to the Imperial Russian Academy of Science.

Melvin W. Carter III represents Ward 1 on the Saint Paul City Council. A native of Minnesota, he attended Florida A&M University and got engaged in electoral politics after his brother was turned away from a Florida polling precinct during Election 2000.
Council Member Carter is passionate about building the progressive movement and helping others engage. He has trained community organizers and political candidates in 26 states with several national organizations, including Wellstone Action, People for the American Way Foundation and Progressive Majority. At home, he works creatively to engage constituents through unique events to such as "Candidate Karaoke", a non-traditional candidate forum where participants have to sing before they can speak. He serves as Minnesota State Director for the Young Elected Officials (YEO) Network, a national network of over 600 elected officials under age 35. Council Member Carter was selected by his peers to receive the 2011 Barbara Jordan Leadership Award, the YEO Network's highest annual honor.
Elected to the City Council in 2007, Carter has sponsored and passed legislation to tackle some of the City's most pressing issues, including: forming the city's Department of Human Rights & Equal Economic Opportunity (HREEO), requiring landlords to notify tenants of a pending foreclosure on their property, banning the sale of candy cigarettes and toy lighters to reduce "practice smoking" among children and educating restaurant employees about the dangers of food allergies.
Inspired by the work of the Harlem Children's Zone to end the achievement gap, Carter in 2009 created the Frogtown/ Summit-University Community Investment Campus, a partnership between City, County, School and community leaders to support high quality education outcomes for all children. Just one year later, this initiative won a highly competitive federal Promise Neighborhoods Grant to continue that work on a larger scale, as the Saint Paul Promise Neighborhood.
An advocate for transit equity, Carter has fought tirelessly for residents and businesses along Saint Paul's planned Central Corridor Light Rail Line. As part of a broad community movement, Carter has worked to secure additional stations, support local businesses through construction, and create employment training and affordable housing opportunities along the Corridor.
Carter holds a Bachelor's Degree in business administration from Florida A&M University, and a Master of Public Policy from the University of Minnesota's Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs. In his free time, Melvin enjoys spending time with his two beautiful daughters, Maylena (5) and Naomi (3).

Even during their days as teenagers in a second-string '90s grunge act, the Aussies of Silverchair had a knack for turning out memorable hooks. Still, the transformation they've pulled off for their first LP since '02 is fairly astonishing. Young Modern is a polished glam-rock suite, boasting more ecstatic melodies and colorful riffs than their four previous efforts combined. Frontman Daniel Johns' voice, once unremarkable, now soars from campy snarl to sensitive falsetto in mere moments. Here's hoping Silverchair's second act is just getting started. A-

When you make Korean dishes, marinate for long periods of time unless using seafood or poultry. The marinade will break down the tough fibers of the less elegant cuts of meat like short ribs, flank steak that are staples on the Korean family table (2 tours of duty US Army. Grill over the BBQ for even more flavor. I used this marinade, with a few additions & found it to be most delectable. The Korean name for this dish is Bul-Kal-Bi.

I was so looking forward to this recipe and it was terrible. The meat was tough and not vry flavorful. Perhaps it is because I only marinated the meat for two hours - so maybe that is the problem. The garbage and dogs got the bulk of this dish.

Stuff that's tricky to do with a camera
Do you understand your camera?
I like to imagine that I do, but my camera's pretty confusing, too.
All you need to understand is shutter speed, aperture and film speed, but with all the things to shoot and ways these interact, it can be pretty tricky!
Have you ever tried to do a photo project from the internet? I've done a bunch, developing film in coffee, for instance, that's pretty easy. Long exposures with flash stencils mirages? I do okay at that, but there's a trick to it, there's certain things you have to understand to do it. We can learn together.
Come by with any concern, or try to learn how to do specific things with long exposures, which will be my focus for the summer. You do need something like an SLR to do long exposures, but I may be able to provide these if I am told of a need in advance.
Look at these fish. If you do crafts or visual art and want to know something about photography, then I have fun experiments you may appreciate.
We will have weekly classes in July and August, not including July 4th.
Mondays are field days, where we shoot and Fridays we will have an open studio for those interested in editing their photos or learning about editing or even developing film!
Open studios are Fridays, starting at 7p, and you can stay as late as 10.
You don't have to attend all the open studios or all of the field sessions! We will try to keep in touch so that we know what materials to have and whether or not to wait up for you before we take off on ADVENTURES.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion With Sunscreen Reviews
Good LotionThis lotion works good. It comes in a great pump. It goes on smooth and isn't heavy. It makes your skin feel soft. It doesn't really have a scent. A little expensive for drug store brand. — 1 year, 10 months agomissheatherette | 336 reviews
My Lotion StapleThis lotion is a staple for me! My hubby turned me onto it a few years back and even though I've tried other lotions, I keep coming back to this one! It retains its moisture without leaving you greasy, slimy or slippery. I get really dry skin during the winter months and this is my savior. It works wonders. I also like the fact it really don't have a smell so it doesn't "interrupt" with my pe...read morerfume or body spray. A little goes a long way and when I run out of facial moisturizer; I use this in the interim. The price point is perfect that delivers so many pluses. — 3 years, 10 months agoMLC825 | 326 reviews

Wheeee.Oh wonderful SPF what can I do without you? This lotion also comes in a tube form for reapplication on the go, and a pump form so you can put it on at home or at the office. I have eczema, and this doesn't irritate it at all. Of course it isn't adequate to moisturize the extremely dry bits all day, but it keeps me mostly covered. No smell and no irritation, and it isn't greasy either. Pretty cheap because the pump bottle lasts about 8 months of daily wear, for me anyways. Use liberally! — 5 years, 8 months agoRavenLoudspeakr | 271 reviews

The worstThis lotion is horrible!!! It is sticky, strong odour, and gunky white film is left on your body after you use it. — 1 year, 2 months agosirsha | 30 reviews
Disagree that its on the worst listI felt the need to review this product because it is on the worst list. I live in a super dry climate and also have psoriasis so lotion is not only a must but its tough to find a good lotion. Yes the smell is a bit on the sunscreen side but its not over powering and doesn't last long. The consistency is somewhere between what you would call a "regular" lotion and a cream... sort of thick but it is...read more a great after shower lotion. It leaves your skin feeling super smooth and more importantly it leaves your skin feeling moisturized for hours. For a quick find ( located at most grocery chains) and an effective product I would highly recommend it. I feel often consumers forget the reason they buy products and lotion is meant to leave the skin feeling smooth and moisturized but not greasy and this product meets those expectations. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is because I like stronger scented lotions and because its got a slightly off texture when it comes out of the bottle. Its definitely not a deal breaker though. — 1 year, 3 months agolittlelaura | 35 reviews
I Like the PumpPersonally, I think the pump idea is why people purchase Aveeno certainly not the aroma. — 1 year, 7 months agoHandbagLover | 148 reviews
A So So LotionI tried this lotion and just so people know I did use the whole bottle I didn't try it once and return it. But I found that the whole time I used it the lotion felt heavy and sticky on my skin, it almost felt like a was putting a covering over my skin. It did moisturize a bit but the sticky heavy feeling just made it really not worth it. I'm sure part of the heavy feeling is from the sunscreen but...read more I've used other lotions with SPF and they didn't feel that sticky and heavy. Also it seemed like this lotion made my face break out in acne a bit the entire time I used it which made have been due to the oil from the sunscreen but just so you know people who have very oily or dry skin may not want to try this lotion. — 2 years agoYugi_Hoshi | 15 reviews
deceivingi used to think aveeno was the best because it SEEMED pretty natural. well whatever they put in it dries your skin out more than it was before. give it an hour. try it on your hands. you'll see. now i don't buy anything aveeno! — 3 years, 6 months agochinchyandchili | 1 reviews
Good as a daily sunscreen protectorI personally like this lotion because you can wear it everyday without feeling like you have suntanning lotion on. I really do not think it has a strong smell at all. the scent is very subtle it is a little thick but that is ok. as long as it does its job. I live in a very sunny hot state and I do not always feel like putting on my hawaaiin tropic lotion on, this is a nice substitute. — 3 years, 7 months agojennymuffins | 3 reviews
Non-greasy and very moisturizingThis lotion is very moisturizing, making it my number 1 body lotion, and Norweigian Formula body moisturizer to be the second. I like this one better because of its non-greasy feel, its sun protection, and its very effective moisturizing property. Those are the only body lotions i trust now since i tend to get dry itchy crack skin especially on my legs all the time and these 2 never failed to rest...read moreore my body's moisture just after a day.

My Reasons for Reporting This

Current Articles
By Tim Wadkins
In 1990, a friend helped my brother, Bill, and I acquire permission to hunt private land in Warren County, Ind., about 120 miles from home. The place has been well worth the 2 a.m. wake-ups and the long drives. Before that, we'd endured the crowds on public ground.
I've never had a problem taking my share of deer, but it wasn't until a decade later that I scored a true wallhanger.
In 2001, during a very foggy opening morning of firearms season, I heard a buck grunting inside a nearby thicket. Visibility was very low, but when I caught a glimpse of the deer, I noticed that the tip of its right main beam had a distinctive upward curl. The buck was hot on the trail of a doe - behind a veil of brush and fog. The only way I would have a shot was if the doe lured her suitor out of the cover.
Fortunately for me, she did just that!
When the doe stepped from the thicket and into an open bean field at 35 yards, the buck was right behind her. They'd gone another 40 yards before I could grunt with my mouth to stop them. It worked, and when the buck put on the brakes in the wide open, my .50-caliber muzzleloader belched its own fog. That was my first real trophy, a typical 13-pointer that measured 166 on the BTR scale.
The next year, something changed in me. After finally taking a big buck, I was more confident, and I did not put any added pressure on myself. Also, with Indiana's new limit of one buck per season, I started passing on a lot of bucks I generally would have taken. The bucks that I did take over the next three years were very nice specimens.
In 2005, my vacation time spanned the last week of archery season and the first of firearms. The end of bow season usually offers a lot of pre-rut activity, but warm and windy weather kept deer movement minimal.
Opening morning of firearms season was uneventful, too, but at 11 a.m., while I was daydreaming in my stand, I heard something behind me that sounded like a squirrel.
I turned around to see a monster buck cutting across the corner of the pasture. There was no doubt in my mind that it was a shooter (by my upgraded standards). When it was at 25 yards, I leveled my 12 gauge at its shoulder and touched off the shot. The buck went about 40 yards before falling hard.
It seemed that Bill and my girlfriend, Christine, could not get over to my stand fast enough to see what had caused me to spend a sabot so early in the week. I was very excited, too, and I couldn't wait for them to get there.
Celebrating alone isn't nearly as much fun.
I feel very fortunate to have harvested two exceptional bucks in the past five years. I'm also glad that my brother has shared these experiences with me, since he's the reason I became so passionately involved in hunting.

Filmmakers: Nick Ahlmark and Nicole Precel/Storytime Films
The infant and maternal mortality rates in the mountainous regions of northern Vietnam are 10 times higher than the national average.
In this observational film we follow a Hmong ethnic minority midwife who has been trained to provide maternal care to her community in the isolated Chi Ca commune.
We observe her journeys into the harsh mountain terrain, her work tending to pregnant women and her efforts to change the Hmong's cultural attitudes towards maternal health against a backdrop of poverty and remoteness.

We've heard of importing goods and raw materials, but importing trash? That's exactly what Sweden intends to do in order to compensate for its trash shortfall. Sweden burns trash to create about 20 percent of its heat, but the Swedes are so diligent about recycling that the country simply isn't generating enough waste to create the heat they need.
Sweden only sends about 4 percent of its waste to landfills. To put that into perspective, the United States landfills about 67 percent of its waste. While that is great for Sweden's environment, it isn't so good for their Waste-to-Energy program, which is capable of treating up to two million tons of household waste, which is converted into heat and electricity.
The solution is to import waste from Sweden's neighbor, Norway. Not only is Sweden taking trash off of their hands, Norway will pay them to do so. All told, Sweden plans to import about 800,000 tons each year, most of which will be used in the Waste-to-Energy program. Any toxic waste resulting from the burning will be returned to Norway. But in case you are thinking that Norway is getting the short end of the stick, don't worry – they are happy with the agreement because exporting the trash is more economical than dealing with it.
In the future, Sweden hopes to be able to import from other countries that landfill a higher percentage of waste than Norway. "I hope that we instead will get the waste from Italy or from Romania or Bulgaria or the Baltic countries because they landfill a lot in these countries. They don't have any incineration plants or recycling plants, so they need to find a solution for their waste," says Catarina Ostlund, Senior Advisor for the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.

As economically intriguing and benficial such solution may seem, in the long run it is definitely not. Waste incineration is just fighting symptoms and all but tackling the underlying problem of a linear econmy dependent on exponential growth. Burning waste leaves 25% toxic residue behind, which has to be dealt with accordingy and quite costly. Further, burning trash means wasting huge amounts of energy. Just think of all the energy and material used to extract resources, manufacture and transport goods – hugely blown out the chimney. And for what? To start all over again extracting resources, manufacturing, and disposing of again and again. If we want to achieve real change we need to start reducing, reusing, and recycling heavily. We need to ask ourselves what we really need to live a good life, and we need to start thinking what world we want to pass on to our children and children's children and start acting accordingly. More of the same will do us no good, I'm afraid.

A KSL 5 Eyewitness News "Investigation"
Nov 28th
Will you watch Dick Nourse or Michelle King?
Nov 26th
Posted by Russ in Journalism
I wonder why KUTV and KSL are having two long-time TV anchors retire on the same night? Are they trying to compete? Apparently so.
In one corner, you have Dick Nourse, a guy who has been on the air at one television station for 43 years! This guy covered the Vietnam War for KSL.
In the other corner you have Michelle King, a former homecoming queen at BYU who's retiring after 29 years.
Who will you watch on November 28 . . . Neither?
Video: UHP officer tases man in front of screaming wife
Nov 20th
Posted by Russ in Public Relations
Apparently if you don't "follow instructions" you can be electrocuted with 50,000 volts and "you'll go to jail" if you don't get in your car. The problem is, the guy who gets tased doesn't realize that the fine print on citations says you can be arrested if you refuse to sign your ticket. Oops. Darn fine print.
Visually, it looks bad for the cop, especially when he opens his mouth on camera and says "painful isn't it" and then threatens the frightened wife with jail. Darn cameras.
Frankly, I think the "tased" man is lucky he isn't dead. Briskly walking toward a cop with your hand in your pocket is not the smartest thing to do. It will be interesting to see what the reviewing authorities decide on this one.

The truth shows its face on Utah Vouchers
Nov 11th
Posted by Russ in [...]
$9.3 million was approved by the Utah legislature for use on vouchers until it went to referendum and was voted down. So what's going to happen to the money? It's not going to public education because that's not where the money came from. But again, voucher opponents and many teachers led a lot of people to believe that it did. They still want the money… Fat chance!
It's going back to the general budget where it came from and will likely be used for building roads. It just goes to show how false those "vouchers take money away from public school" ads were that used the teacher of the year as their poster celebrity. I guess they'll have to start running new ads that say "roads take money away from public schools," so vote them down.

Myth 3: Public education money belongs to public schools
Nov 4th
Posted by Russ in Public Relations
This is a continuation of the Myths from the Opposition series.
- Utah's Referendum 1: 5 articles you don't want to miss reading
- Referendum 1 for Utah? What are the REAL facts?
- Utah Vouchers: Myths from the opposition
- Myth No. 2: Vouchers will divert money from schools
Myth No. 3: Public Education Money Belongs to Public Schools
Fact: Public education money (money for educating the public) does not belong to public schools; it belongs to the public, and public officials appropriate it on behalf of the public. In Utah those officials have set aside $3.5 billion of that money (taxes) to go to schools that are "free" to the public. They are especially free if you are renting and don't own property because those tax dollars for education are tied to property ownership.
At the end of the day, this is all just more proof that teachers are lying when they go on television and tell you vouchers take money from public schools. Vouchers come from the general budget and do not have anything to do with the tax dollars that are budgeted to public schools.
Paul Tonks: Draper City's best choice for city council
Nov 3rd
Posted by Russ in Public Relations
Even if you don't live in Draper, Utah to be able to vote for Paul Tonks for city council that's okay. I still get to voice my opinion and hope that others in Draper will read this and do the same.
Why I'm Voting for Paul Tonks for Draper City Council
1 – He's the only candidate that had part of his campaign team spend time to come visit those of us that live in the Utah County section of Draper. There aren't a lot of us, but our votes still count, and they can swing the election in such a small city.
2 – Paul Tonks is "Suncrest Friendly" unlike some of the candidates who have a bone to pick with the development for some reason. Some of those candidates even live in Suncrest, yet for some reason treat the area like outcasts in council decisions.
3 – Paul supports choice in education.
4 – Paul supports "work on a master transportation plan that takes into consideration future growth, and allows the citizens of Draper to have a voice concerning the extension of TRAX into Draper."
5 – Paul wants to work with developers, not put roadblocks in their way. Draper is notorious for being a pain in the bum to work with because of a few council members who seem to place their personal agendas for development first and foremost.
Paul is the best choice for city council. Vote for Paul Tonks November 6th.
