  • Woven Fabrics
    Fabric – Woven Fabrics WOVEN FABRICS Fabrics are made of yarns by weaving them in different combinations. It is mostly done by interlacing two sets of yarn or thread made of fibers called the warp and weft of the loom. It only stretches in the bias directions, between the warp and weft directions, unless the threads are elastic. Lengthwise stronger vertical yarns with more twist are Warp or Picks while widthwise filling yarns are termed as weft or ends. Sidewise edge of fabric is termed as Selvedge. THREE BASIC WEAVES There are three main types of weave: Plain, Twill and Satin Plain weave is a basic weave which is made when the thread is woven on one up and one down principle, some plain weave fabrics are Chambray, Chiffon, Gingham, and Organza etc. Twill weave is made when the thread is placed by varying the order of interlacing the yarns so that diagonal parallel lines are produced across the fabric. Satin Weave is a weave made when each warp yarn floats over four filling yarns and interlaces with fifth filling yarn. Plain weave Twill weave Satin weave Fabric – Weft Knit Fabrics Knitted Fabrics Knitting is the process of construction of a fabric by interlocking loops of yarn by means of hooked needles. Knitted fabric consists of horizontal rows known as courses and vertical columns of loops known as Wales. Knitted fabrics are porous having insulated air pockets giving warmth when worn. Knitted fabrics are very absorbent, wrinkle resistant and lightweight. They shrink more than woven fabrics unless shrink- proofing techniques are used.

HARTE Department of History Pasold Research Fund University College London London School of Economics Gower Street Houghton Street London WC1E 6BT London WC2A 2AE In the eighteenth century, a great deal of linen was produced in the American colonies. Virtually every farming family spun and wove linen cloth for its own consumption. The production of linen was the most widespread industrial activity in America during the colonial period. Yet at the same time, large amounts of linen were imported from across the Atlantic into the American colonies. Linen was the most important commodity entering into the American trade. This apparently paradoxical situation reflects the importance in pre-industrial society of the production and consumption of the extensive range of types of fabrics grouped together as 'linen*.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

  • Charles “Lucky” Luciano , Nascut Sub Numele De Salvatore Lucania (24 Noiembrie 1897 – 26 Ianuarie 1962) , a Fost Un Renumit Gangster Americano-Sicilian
    Charles “Lucky” Luciano , nascut sub numele de Salvatore Lucania (24 Noiembrie 1897 – 26 Ianuarie 1962) , a fost un renumit gangster americano-sicilian . Luciano este considerat parintele crimei organizate moderne si creierul din spatele expansiunii postbelice a traficului de heroina . Revista americana Times l-a adaugat in top 20 al celor mai influenti constructori si titani ai secolului 20 . Salvatore Lucania s-a nascut la 24 Noiembrie 1897 in localitatea siciliana Lercara Friddi , din parintii Antonio si Rosalia Lucania . Promisiunea unei vieti mai bune a determinat familia sa se mute in America , la inceputul anului 1907 . Odata ajunsi in Insula Ellis , Lucania se imbolnaveste de varicela , boala ce ii va afecta aspectul fetei tot restul vietii . Stabiliti la New York intr-un cartier de evrei , Salvatore isi incepe cariera de infractor jefuind tinerii evrei in drum spre scoala . Dupa mai multe “vizite” in centrele pentru infractorii juvelini , se hotaraste sa isi schimbe numele in Charles datorita rusinii cauzate familiei . In 1919 guvernul american a interzis productia si comercializarea alcoolului pe teritoriul Statelor Unite ale Americii , fapt ce a dus la expansiunea industriei ilegale de alcool . Intre 1920-1925 Luciano isi dezvolta , cu ajutorul altor gangsteri ai vremii , o uriasa afacere cu alcool , afacere ce ii aducea un profit anual de cateva sute de mii de dolari . Importa scotch direct din Scotia , rom din Caraibe si whiskey din Canada . Pe langa afacerile cu alcoolul , mai era implicat in jocurile de noroc , dar in acest moment Luciano deja facea parte din bossii mafiei din New York . In curand Luciano isi va uni fortele cu Joe “the Boss” Messeria .
