The Rider On The White Horse (1978 Film)
''The Rider on the White Horse'' (also known as ''Der Schimmelreiter'') is 1978 German film directed by Alfred Weidenmann. Plot Background The film is the second of the three German film adaptations of ''The Rider on the White Horse'' by Theodor Storm. Weidenmann’s version is noted for its emphasis on issues of the time and its use of comparatively more fantasy features. Analysis The ''Lexikon des Internationalen Films'' states that the film contains "atmospheric landscape shots" and that "the social conflict recedes in favor of the tragic love story, which Weidenmann extensively plays out." while the ''Große Personenlexikon des Films'' finds the film "staged in an overly banal manner."

Derrick (TV Series)
A derrick is a lifting device composed at minimum of one guyed mast, as in a gin pole, which may be articulated over a load by adjusting its guys. Most derricks have at least two components, either a guyed mast or self-supporting tower, and a boom hinged at its base to provide articulation, as in a stiffleg derrick. The most basic type of derrick is controlled by three or four lines connected to the top of the mast, which allow it to both move laterally and cant up and down. To lift a load, a separate line runs up and over the mast with a hook on its free end, as with a crane. Derricks are especially useful for high-rise rigging, jobs that cover a long period of time, or jobs when the impact to street or pedestrian traffic is a concern. Forms of derricks are commonly found aboard ships and at docking facilities. Large derricks mounted on dedicated vessels are known as floating derricks and shearlegs. The term derrick is also applied to the framework supporting a drillin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

I Am Looking For A Man
I, or i, is the ninth letter and the third vowel letter of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''i'' (pronounced ), plural ''ies''. Name In English, the name of the letter is the "long I" sound, pronounced . In most other languages, its name matches the letter's pronunciation in open syllables. History In the Phoenician alphabet, the letter may have originated in a hieroglyph for an arm that represented a voiced pharyngeal fricative () in Egyptian, but was reassigned to (as in English "yes") by Semites because their word for "arm" began with that sound. This letter could also be used to represent , the close front unrounded vowel, mainly in foreign words. The Greeks adopted a form of this Phoenician ''yodh'' as their letter ''iota'' () to represent , the same as in the Old Italic alphabet.
