Vera Miles

Afbeelding
Born August 23, 1929. Birth name Vera June Ralston. Born in Boise City, Oklahoma, Vera Miles attended school in Pratt, Kansas and Wichita, Kansas. The patrician beauty of Miss Miles won her the title of "Miss Kansas" in 1948, leading soon to small roles in Hollywood films and television series. Fame came to the forthright, spirited Miles when she attracted the attention of two master directors, Alfred Hitchcock and John Ford. Ford cast her in the classic western The Searchers (1956) and Hitchcock, who put her under personal contract and hailed her as his "new Grace Kelly", paired her with the great Henry Fonda in The Wrong Man (1956). Hitchcock cast Miles in the potentially star-making role of Judy Barton in Vertigo (1958), but Miles withdrew from the film when she became pregnant. Hitchcock gave Miles a supporting role in another masterpiece Psycho (1960), as did Ford when he cast her opposite John Wayne and James Stewart in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962),...

VISIGODEN

Afbeelding
VISIGODEN Toen de oorspronkelijke volkeren van de Germaanse regio steeds meer de Romeinse grenzen binnentrokken, vormden sommige van deze volkeren grote en sterke machtsstructuren, met kleine staten georganiseerd uit verschillende culturen. Onder hen vielen de Goten op rond 200 n. omringd. Aan de Donau werden twee plaatsen gesticht die kleine gotische koninkrijken zouden worden, waar op de linkeroever van de Donau een scheiding ontstond tussen deze mensen, omdat de mensen die oorspronkelijk meer naar het oosten van Europa woonden, enkele verschillen hadden tussen de oorspronkelijke bewoners van het Westen (de Goten) splitsten zich af en gingen hun eigen weg, en werden bekend als de Visigoten. Volgens archeologische onderzoekers kwamen de Visigoten uit Oost-Europa, samen met hun westelijke buren, de Goten, aanvankelijk, zelfs voor de Romeinen, was iedereen die op hun grondgebied arriveerde slechts Ć©Ć©n volk. In de loop der jaren zorgden de bestaande verschillen tussen hen, plus het gevoe...

His first movie was typical of his best work: a well-acted, tightly written, deeply considered "problem picture," 12 Angry Men (1957). From that point on Lumet divided his energies among other idealistic problem pictures along with literate adaptations of plays and novels, big stylish pictures, New York-based black comedies, and realistic crime dramas, including Serpico and Prince of the City. As a result of d...

Horses

Afbeelding
Horses were painted for battle, buffalo hunting and celebrations of victorious battles and successful horse raids or hunts. It was not only a sacred ritual, but a means of creative and artistic expression. Fearsome warriors and their mighty warhorses in brilliant splashes of color were spectacular sights to behold and some U.S. soldiers of the Indian Wars wrote in their journals of the pomp and color that bedecked the enemy warriors and their mounts on the battlefield. There are few archival photographs capturing Native Americans on their painted war horses. But Native ledgers of battles have documented warriors and their battle mounts in full regalia. WHITE was the color of peace, prosperity, safety. But it could also mean mourning. Made from gypsum, limestone, clay, eggshells or seashells. Pawnee painted their faces white to acquire the hunting power of the wolf and sometimes painted their horses’ faces, too, for protection and survival in battle. GREEN, not surprisingly, was the col...

Stafford appeared on an episode of What's My Line? on November 10, 1963. Gracie Lantz died of spinal canc...

Maagd, stier, steenbok Om wat successen op je pad te kunnen en mogen laten komen, mag je even terug naar je zelf gaan. Dit kan je doen doormiddel van een mediatie maar ook zeker even iets voor je zelf doen en je rust te pakken. Wees lief voor je zelf maar ook voor andere. Ook mag je gaan aarde door bijv met blote voeten in het gras te staan. Blijf wel duidelijk communiceren met andere maar ook je grenzen aan geven als iets niet helemaal gaat zoals jij het wenst. Mogelijk komen er successen op je pad wat betreft werk. Blijf wel je dromen volgen. Hou wel je wilde haren in bedwang want dit kan nog wel eens voor problemen zorgen.
