Gretchen J
Gretchen (, ; literal translation: "Little Grete" or "Little Greta (given name), Greta") is a female given name of Germany, German origin that is mainly prevalent in the United States. Its popularity increased because a major character in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Goethe's ''Goethe's Faust, Faust'' (1808) has this name. In German, the ' ("question by Gretchen"), derived from Faust, is an idiom for a direct question that aims at the core of a problem and that should reveal the intentions and mindset of the questioned. The question is usually inconvenient to the questioned since he or she shall confess to something crucial he or she was intentionally or unintentionally vague about before. In German-speaking countries, Gretchen is not a common stand-alone given name but rather a colloquial diminutive form of Grete (Greta), which itself is a short form of Margarete. It fell out of use when the popularity of the latter two names declined in the 20th century. People *Gretchen (sing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Anamorphic Lens
Anamorphic format is the cinematography technique of shooting a widescreen picture on standard 35 mm film or other visual recording media with a non-widescreen native aspect ratio. It also refers to the projection format in which a distorted image is "stretched" by an anamorphic projection lens to recreate the original aspect ratio on the viewing screen (not to be confused with anamorphic widescreen, a different video encoding concept that uses similar principles but different means). The word ''anamorphic'' and its derivatives stem from the Greek ''anamorphoun'' ("to transform"), compound of ''morphé'' ("form, shape") with the prefix ''aná'' ("back, against"). In the late 1990s and 2000s, anamorphic lost popularity in comparison to "flat" (or "spherical") formats such as Super 35 with the advent of digital intermediates; however, in the years since digital cinema cameras and projectors have become commonplace, anamorphic has experienced a considerable resurgence of popularit ...

Number One (Star Trek)
Una Chin-Riley, commonly and originally only known as Number One, is a fictional character in the science-fiction franchise ''Star Trek''.
