Return To The Hiding Place
''Return to the Hiding Place'' is a 2013 film based upon the factual accounting of Hans Poley's World War II encounter with Corrie ten Boom, her involvement in the Dutch resistance and the wartime harboring of Jewish refugees. A non-Jewish fugitive after he refused to pledge his allegiance to the Nazis, Poley was the first person hidden from the Nazis in the Ten Boom Museum, Ten Boom House, which is today a museum in Haarlem, Netherlands. The film is adapted, in part, from Poley's book, ''Return to the Hiding Place'' (1993), personal recollections, relayed to screenwriter Dr. Peter C. Spencer, and research from the Nationaal Archief, Dutch National Archives. The film is neither a prequel nor is it a sequel to the 1975 film ''The Hiding Place (film), The Hiding Place'', instead, it is a congruent accounting of the Dutch underground's resistance efforts from Poley's perspective. It was directed by Peter C. Spencer and starred John Rhys-Davies, Mimi Sagadin and Craig Robert Young. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Slate Holmgren
Slate is a fine-grained, foliated, homogeneous metamorphic rock derived from an original shale-type sedimentary rock composed of clay or volcanic ash through low-grade regional metamorphism. It is the finest grained foliated metamorphic rock. Foliation may not correspond to the original sedimentary layering, but instead is in planes perpendicular to the direction of metamorphic compression. The foliation in slate is called "slaty cleavage". It is caused by strong compression causing fine grained clay flakes to regrow in planes perpendicular to the compression. When expertly "cut" by striking parallel to the foliation, with a specialized tool in the quarry, many slates will display a property called fissility, forming smooth flat sheets of stone which have long been used for roofing, floor tiles, and other purposes. Slate is frequently grey in color, especially when seen, en masse, covering roofs. However, slate occurs in a variety of colors even from a single locality; for exam ...
