ABRAHAM DARBY - English Garden Roses

"Abraham Darby" is a David Austin English rose which has been around for a while now. It is one of the strongest growing and most beautiful for New Zealand gardens.

Um seine Waren transportieren zu können, suchte der Eisenwerksbesitzer Abraham Darby III. einen Architekten, der ihm über das fünf Kilometer breite Tal des Severn in Mittelengland eine stabile Brücke aus "Stein, Ziegeln oder Holz" bauen sollte. Thomas Pritchard nahm die Herausforderung an, er baute allerdings eine Brücke aus Gusseisen, mit deren Fertigstellung 1781 die neue "Eisenzeit" begann. Sie war die größte freischwebende Brückenkonstruktion der damaligen Zeit. Am markantesten höchsten Punkt des Tales errichtet, wurde die Ironbridge zum Wahrzeichen der industriellen Macht der Darbys und zum Denkmal der industriellen Revolution.

Baumes rush, Baumes Law (W3)

Senator "Caleb H. Baumes" sponsored a New York law (the "Baumes Law") which called for automatic life imprisonment of any criminal convicted more than three times. Some criminals would move to a state that didn't have this law in order to avoid its penalty should they be caught again, and this was known as a "Baumes rush," because of the similarity to "bum's rush."

Constance Spry (1886-1960) Biografie
Rose Constance Spry

Ein Jahr nach ihrem Tod widmete der Zücher der berühmten Floristin Constance Spry (1886-1960) diese Rose. Nach einer unglücklichen Ehe, aus der ihr einziges Kind stammte, und Tätigkeiten für das Rote Kreuz in Dublin, verließ sie 1916 ihren Mann und zog mit ihrem Sohn nach England.
...

Many English Roses, notably "Constance Spry" the first English Rose, have an unusual scent described as "myrrh".
...
"Constance Spry", ..., are some of the hardier English Roses.

...
As a florist, social reformer, teacher and best-selling author, CONSTANCE SPRY (1886-1960) democratised home-making in mid-20th century Britain by teaching millions of people that - with a little imagination - they could beautify their homes with flowers plucked from hedgerows and scraps of wasteland.

James Cook und die Entdeckung der Südsee
28. August 2009 bis 28. Februar 2010
Der britische Seefahrer und Entdecker James Cook (1728-1779) wurde durch drei Expeditionsreisen (1768-1779/80) in die damals noch unbekannten Weiten des Pazifischen Ozeans berühmt. Ihm gelang es erstmalig, Neuseeland, Australien und die Inselwelt der Südsee zu kartographieren. Damit vervollständigte er unser neuzeitliches Bild von der Erde und widerlegte die Vorstellung von einem mythischen Südkontinent.

James Cook (* 27. Oktober 1728 in Marton bei Middlesbrough; † 14. Februar 1779 in der Bucht von Kealakekua auf Hawaii) war ein britischer Seefahrer und Entdecker. Berühmt wurde er durch drei Fahrten in den Pazifischen Ozean, auf denen er zahlreiche Inseln entdeckte sowie weitere Inseln vermaß und kartografierte.

Serial Killer Crime Index
Serienkiller-Enzyklopädie

crimeZZZ.net IS A PRIVATE PROJECT of eliZZZa who is in fact not half as bloodthirsty as this site may let you fear. Actually I am a rather peaceful person, teaching screen design, web production and everything PC and Internet while privately growing orchids and living with my cat "Stiefel" ("boots") in the middle of Vienna.

The impetus to collecting serial killers struck me when I researched for a job on that topic, which left me quite frustrated facing so much humiliation, perversion, contempt for humanity and neglection of victims, that I immediately started building a site with a different approach - I always re-invent Internet, whenever I am not content with what I find out there. But that´s a different story >;o))

ritzy place, ritzy, Ritz (W2)

Das engl. Bezeichnung für eine "stinkvornehme Umgebung" ("elegant", "nobel", "protzig") geht zunächst zurück auf die vornehmen "Ritz Hotels". Diese wurden von dem schweizer Hotelier "César Ritz" (1850-1918) gegründet. (Das erste "Ritz" baute er an der Place Vendôme in Paris. Mittlerweile gibt es die Ritz Hotels in vielen Ländern.) Somit geht das Adjektiv "ritzy" also auf den schweitzer Familiennamen "Ritz" zurück.

Wie es zur Bildung des Familiennamens "Ritz" kam, kann ich im Moment nur spekulieren. Jedenfalls geht der "Ritz" zurück auf "reissen", was eine grosse Palette an Deutungen zuläßt. Diese reicht vom Schriftgelehrten ("ritzen von Runenzeichen") bis zum Waldarbeiter ("Holz reissen").

Tawdry Knickers And Other Unfortunate Ways to Be Remembered

What Are Tawdry Knickers?
Most of us dream of a noteworthy legacy - our fifteen minutes spread on to eternity. Luckily for some, many words in the English language are derived from proper names. However, while many historical figures live on with an etymological badge of honor, others have names that are an inescapable and seemingly eternal embarrassment.

Tawdry Knickers and Other Unfortunate Ways to Be Remembered provides the stories behind these notorious namesakes of history. (more)

... Called "galoshes" in America.

"Wellington boots", "wellies"

"Green Wellingtons" are most popular in Britain, while "black Wellingtons", particularly with red or green soles, remain the favourite of Canadians. "Yellow-soled black Wellingtons" are often seen in the US, in addition to Canadian styles.

And then there is "wellie throwing", a light-hearted sport in Britain known as "wellie wanging", which involves throwing Wellington boots as far as possible.

Ehrlich, Eugene
What's in a Name?
How Proper Names Became Everyday Words

"Venn diagram", "Möbius strip", and "Achilles' heel" are all phrases that clearly derive from the names of the persons who described, discovered, or inspired them. But a lot of English words one would never know had originated in proper names. So knowing, however, enriches one's understanding of the word, whether the person behind it is real or imagined, historical or literary, a scientist or a mythical figure. The next time you see a "maverick" (Samuel Augustus Maverick, Texas cattle rancher) "epicure" (Epicurus, Greek philosopher) whisk up a tantalizing "béchamel" sauce (Marquis de Béchamel), don't "hector" (Trojan hero) him about his "sideburns" (Union general Ambrose Everett Burnside) or his "cardigan" (James Thomas Brudenell, 7th Earl of). Just grab a "sandwich" (also Earl of), your favorite "teddy bear" (President T. Roosevelt), and a copy of Eugene Ehrlich's wonderfully entertaining "What's in a Name", for a laze under the "bougainvillea" (Louis Antoine de Bougainville). No "Baedeker" (German publisher) can recommend an afternoon better spent. - Jane Steinberg

Freeman, Morton S.
Newman, Edwin (Vorwort)
A New Dictionary of Eponyms

Kurzbeschreibung
A fascinating survey of words and phrases derived from the names of people, written in an entertaining and anecdotal style.

Synopsis
Do you approve of censoring the works of great writers? Some might contend that to "bowdlerize" a great writer's work would be to diminish its overall quality. Others, like "Thomas Bowdler", whose eraser danced over every Shakespeare play, would argue that all modest people should be able to read a great work without blushing. For attacking the classics, Mr. Bowdler has been immortalized as the world's best-known, self-appointed literary censor. And because of his efforts the term "bowdlerize" has become eponymous with his name.

Alternatively, the word "bikini" - defined as a two-piece bathing suit for women - has been a linguistic mystery since 1947 when these suits were first seen on the beaches of the French Riviera, a year after the United States began testing atom bombs on the "Bikini atoll" of the Marshall Islands. Some shocked people said that the impact of the scanty swimsuit on male beach loungers was like the devastating effect of the atomic bomb. Whoosh! A simpler and more credible notion is that the daring swimsuits resembled the attire worn by women on the Bikini atoll.

Created about a century ago, the term "eponym" is itself a coinage from two Greek words, "epi", "on" or "upon," and "onuma", "a name". But its broadened meaning, as dictionaries set it out, refers to a word derived from a proper name.

For instance, "Salisbury steak" - a popular diner menu item created from common hamburger and dressed up with brown gravy to make it more appealing - is named after "James H. Salisbury", an English physician who promoted a diet of ground beef.

A Dictionary of Eponyms explores the origins of hundreds of these everyday words from "Argyle socks" to "zeppelins". Written in an entertaining and anecdotal style, and with a foreword by Edwin Newman, the book includes a brief biography of the individual whose name became associated with an item or concept as well as information on how and when the name entered the language. If you've ever wondered just where terms like "cardigan sweater", "pamphlet", and "robot" come from, Morton Freeman does more than simply define them - he brings them to life.

Tawdry Knickers and Other Unfortunate Ways to Be Remembered
A Saucy and Spirited History of Ninety Notorious Namesakes
(Geschmacklose Knickerbocker)

Kurzbeschreibung
Some are born notorious.
Others have notoriety thrust upon them.

Few realize that their morning mouthwash bears the name of a life-saving British baron or that their sugary graham crackers would be abhorred by the health-food fanatic who concocted the flavorless original recipe. Throughout history, the proper names of figures both noble and notorious have slipped into the common and uncommon corners of our vocabulary. Tawdry Knickers and Other Unfortunate Ways to Be Remembered details the lamentable lives and legacies of history's most infamous namesakes and the words they inspired:

• * Henry Shrapnel died of natural causes, despite having invented the shells whose shattering fragments would rain hellfire on soldiers from the Battle of Waterloo through the Vietnam War.
• * Poor virgin St. Audrey suffered from a bulging neck tumor and the unwanted advances of an unsympathetic husband, but never lived to hear crass vendors eventually hawk her "tawdry" lace.
• * If New York blueblood Harmen Knickerbocker isn't rolling over in his grave, his nineteenth-century drawers are at least in a twist over having his venerable family name associated with underwear.
• * Barbara Handler has never been happy about providing the name for the original Barbie, to say nothing of her doll's plastic relationship with Ken - named for her real-life brother.
• * In contrast to these, dynamite inventor Alfred Nobel avoided the inevitable "merchant of death" epitaph awaiting him by using his enormous explosives fortune to establish the Nobel Prize Foundation.
