Upper Dicker
Arlington is a village and civil parish in the Wealden district of East Sussex, England. The parish is on the River Cuckmere, and is the location of a medieval priory, a reservoir and a car racetrack. History The area has been settled since Anglo-Saxon times. It is suggested that the wooden church in Arlington built by them, having been destroyed by invaders, was later rebuilt with bricks from the nearby Roman road. Apart from the Anglo-Saxon type of quoin stones, the church shows a splayed window of Anglo-Saxon type next to the porch. Supporting an early date is the dedication of the church to St Pancras, the Roman martyr, relics of whom were given to one of the Anglo-Saxon kings: he was reputed to be a teenager when put to death in one of the Roman persecutions of Christians. There is a statue of this saint in the RC church at Lewes: it is reasonable, therefore, to suppose that the church at Arlington dates from early in the Anglo-Saxon period. It was enlarged in the 13th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Lower Dicker
Lower Dicker is a geological Site of Special Scientific Interest west of Hailsham in East Sussex. It is a Geological Conservation Review site. Geology Exposures of a sand member are present in the quarry. The sand is of the lower division of the Weald Clay. The sandstone units of the Weald Clay Group represent river deposits which periodically extended into the Wealden lake or lagoon. The sandstones are important as lithostratigraphical markers (units of rock with the same affinity) and are considered to reflect the effects of tectonic uplift in nearby areas feeding sediment into the area. The mineralogy of these sandstones reflects their provenance and they are therefore of great importance for understanding the changes which took place in the palaeogeography of the Weald The Weald () is an area of South East England between the parallel chalk escarpments of the North and the South Downs. It crosses the counties of Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex and Kent. It has three separate ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dicker Max
The 10.5 cm K ''gepanzerte Selbstfahrlafette'' (), also known as the ''Panzer Selbstfahrlafette'' IV ''Ausf''. A (Pz.Sfl. IVa) () was a prototype self-propelled gun used by Nazi Germany during World War II. Although it was originally designed as a ("bunker buster") for use against the French Maginot Line defences, following the defeat of France in 1940, it was evaluated for use as a tank destroyer on the Eastern Front. Development It was intended to be used against bunkers at ranges beyond which the bunker could return fire. Development by Krupp began in 1939. With the conquest of France complete the design was without a purpose so it was suggested that it be used as a heavy tank destroyer. Two prototypes were ordered, completed in January 1941 and demonstrated in front of Hitler on 31 March 1941. If troop trials were successful it was estimated that series production could begin in early 1942.Jentz, p. 40 Description The 10.5 cm K (gp. Sfl.) was built on a hea ...

Dickering Wapentake
Dickering was a wapentake (which is an administrative division) of the historic county called East Riding of Yorkshire in England, consisting of the north-east part of that county, including the towns of Bridlington and Filey; its territory is now partly in the modern East Riding and partly in North Yorkshire. It was established in 12th or 13th century by combining the three ancient Domesday hundreds of Burton, Huntou (Hunthow) and Torbar. The Wapentake of Dickering ceased to have much significance in the 19th century when the wapentakes were superseded by other administrative divisions for most local government purposes. Dickering consisted of the parishes of Argam, Bempton, Bessingby, Boynton, Bridlington, Burton Agnes, Burton Fleming, Carnaby, Flamborough, Folkton, Foston on the Wolds, Foxholes, Ganton, Garton on the Wolds, Hunmanby, Kilham, Langtoft, Lowthorpe, Muston, Nafferton, Reighton, Rudston, Ruston Parva, Thwing, Willerby and Wold Newton, and part of the p ...

Dicker-rod
The dicker-rod (also spelled dickerod) was used in the defunct World Football League in 1974 and its shortened 1975 season for the purpose of replacing the first down chains more commonly used in gridiron football organizations. The device was invented and patented by George Dicker (for whom the device is named) of Orange County, California. The eponymous device was two and a half yards (90 inches) long. If a ball was placed on the 23-yard line, a marker would be placed 2 yards up the dicker-rod at the 25-yard line. Then, in order to measure whether a first down was attained, the dicker-rod would be laid down at the 25-yard line, and the spot of the ball would be measured against the marker on the rod, which would now be at the 23-yard line, 2 yards away from the 25-yard line. The dicker-rod was intended to improve safety, as a ten yard length of chain laying along the sideline was a hazard for players. Additionally, it required one person to operate, rather than a three-person c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
