At its simplest, cricket is a game of bat and ball- willow and leather. However, what is inside a cricket kit is not limited to these. The modern cricket player has a lot of protective wear, apart from cricket clothing. Inside a cricketer's bag, you will find bats, balls, pads, gloves, clothing and protective guards. Depending on the specialty of a player (batting/ bowling/ wicket keeping), the emphasis on equipment may be different.

Wicketkeepers

Wicketkeepers are fielding specialists. They use the normal protective equipment of batsmen but have specialist equipment- wicketkeeper gloves and pads. The wicketkeeper's gloves are larger and less padded than batsmen's gloves- designed specifically for catching. Inside of their gloves, wicketkeepers wear 'inside gloves' to reduce friction. The wicketkeeper's pads are more slender than the batter's pads so it would not hinder mobility.

All cricketers will have batting equipment as part of their kit. They may also have regulation cricket balls, regardless of whether they are specialist batsmen or bowlers. The basic cricket equipment includes:

a) A wooden bat (made with English willow). The bat has a cylindrical handle and a smooth face and is made to specification of the laws of the game.

b) Leg pads are necessary to protect the shin and knees from damage when batting and are mandatory batting equipment.

c) Batters' gloves: The gloves that batters wear are more compact, padded and webbing-free when compared to wicketkeepers' gloves.

d) Red or white balls made with a base of cork, a leather exterior and a seam.

e) Cricket clothing (white or coloured): These consist of a Polo Shirt (short/long sleeved) and long trousers.

f) Helmets, sun hats or cricket caps: Batters or close fielders do not need to wear helmets, but it is advisable. Batters or fielders can also choose to wear sun hats and cricket caps for protection against the sun.

g) Spiked shoes: Cricket involves running on grass and bare turf sometimes. Spiked shoes are necessary to increase traction. Spiked cricket shoes are not compulsory, however. Some cricketers use basic sneakers with adequate traction.

Protective equipment

Shin guards provide extra protection close fielders- who are near to the striker and risk injury without added protection. Batsmen usually wear thigh guards inside their trousers. Other guards that batters use include arm guards, chest guards and abdomen guards. Batsmen sometimes use abdomen guards to protect the 'family jewels'.

During the winter- in countries like England and New Zealand, pullovers are often part of a cricketer's kit- as a matter of course. Batting equipment alone accounts for the majority of a cricketer's kit. It is easy to glean why cricket is a very expensive sport. Wind-ball cricket- cricket played with a tennis ball- requires much less equipment. Without the necessary equipment in hardball cricket, you risk injury or even death.

And now you can read brief profiles of some of the best spinners and fast bowlers that the game of cricket has ever seen:

Can a Western Male wear short sleeves (shirt or polo) in Saudi Arabia?

men can wear short sleeves and sleeveless....going topless however is not accepted by the community unless of course you're at the beach or by a swimming pool. shorts are OK too..however really short shorts and tight speedos are not. make sure that when you're wearing shorts that your destination allows entrance with that attire, many restaurants and cafes don't allow that (even though they don't require formal wear )...in general, decency and respect are all that's required.
for women, they can wear whatever they want as long as they wear the abaya over it when in public places, they don't have to cover their heads if they don't want to in Jeddah, dhahran and khobar (i don't recommend that in Riyadh) and when in an all women facility like salons, cafes, schools, colleges and at work...they can take the abaya off as long as they're wearing the proper attire for the place or event.

Pole Shirt Used as Work Uniform

In Mansfield Ohio, a new detailed dress code has been drafted for court staff – it's meant to ‘inspire confidence and respect from the public, create a professional image and install a sense of pride in city government'.

In the USA any rules about dress codes must be careful not to infringe on First Amendment rights and religious freedoms and Casual Friday has become a contentious issue, because it's a test of what is acceptable or not – can you wear a shirt, tie and smart jacket on Dress Down Friday if you're Mormon or is that seen as a non-team choice? Can you turn up in a T-shirt with an overtly religious or controversial sporting message or is that somehow also against the spirit of teamwork?

This is why many companies prefer to impose casual uniforms which are usually a soft-collared top such as a polo-shirt, worn with the employee's choice of skirt, trousers or jeans. This allows issues of gender, age and cultural equality to be balanced with health and safety issues.

A men's work Polo Shirt can take on several different looks. It works well as casual business attire or as a uniform. It looks nice and is dressy casual with buttons and a collared look. The polo shirt comes in several different fabric types. The original polo shirt had a long placket than is used today and was designed from a cotton pique knit.

The polo shirt being used as a uniform can be monogrammed easily. Several companies use Polo Shirts as a company uniform. They look nicer than a Tee Shirt and more casual then a button down shirt. These shirts typically come in a plain color design or stripes. The rugby polo typically has wide stripes and a white collar. The button placket has anywhere from three to six buttons. Most polo shirts now have a split hem so it can be worn out or tucked in.

The polo shirt can be worn well with a tie and casual sport coat, khakis and casual shoes. The polo shirt also works well with shorts or jeans and a jean belt. Depending on the job and dress code, the polo shirt can be dress casual or dress down practical. The banded sleeved polo has a matching contrast collar and sleeve band.

The men's polo shirt has come a long way since it was first developed. There are several companies that specialize in men's polo shirts. Most of these companies also offer appliqué and monogramming. These shirts are also required shirts for tennis and golf. It is no wonder they are so popular as work shirts and uniforms as well. The polo shirt can also be work in any season. The long Sleeve Polo shirts are made from heavier materials and the Short Sleeved polo shirts are made from a light weight and breathable fabric.

what is the difference between Jersey Knit and pique?

A Jersey Knit fabric is a finely-grained thinner material. A Pique is a more heavily textured material, typically costing more than the Jersey Knit counterpart.

Callaway X-22 Iron Set

Flex：Regular/Stiff

Shaft Brand：True Temper Dynamic Gold Steel Shaft/Callaway Golf Men X-22 Graphite

Setup：3-9PS

Shaft：Graphite/Steel

The legendary performance of the X Series in a new iron with even more forgiveness.
The goal of our X-Series Irons has always been lofty: Set the performance standard for the industry. We've done it again with Callaway X-22 Iron Set, the best X-Series Irons we've ever made. The perimeter weighting of the X-22s has been maximized for a moment of inertia (MOI) that's 10 percent higher than their predecessors, meaning you get more forgiveness on off-center strikes. The ideal center of gravity position has been preserved, generating optimal ball-flight trajectories. We've also incorporated the Modified Tru-Bore design, dampening vibration for enhanced feel. The tour-inspired head shape has a slightly thinner topline and sole with a large sweet spot for improved aesthetics and forgiveness to boost your confidence.

 Precision Notch Weighting
Precisely positions more weight to the perimeter of the iron to create a higher moment of inertia (MOI) for greater forgiveness and stability while maintaining the center of gravity position that produces ideal trajectories and feel.

Tour-Inspired Head Shape
Our engineers took elements designed for Tour Players, like a thinner top line and narrower sole, and incorporated them into highly forgiving irons with a higher MOI so they can be played by a wide range of golfers.

Modified Tru-Bore
An advanced version of the original Tru-Bore design, the polycarbonate tip plug at the end of the shaft dampens vibration for enhanced feel and performance.

VFT Technology
 VFT Technology maximizes ball speed and perimeter weighting for more distance and forgiveness; S2H2 increases discretionary weight by removing it from the hosel and repositioning it in the perimeter of the clubhead; 360-Degree Undercut Channel maximizes perimeter weighting by moving the CG lower and farther back in the clubhead, enlarging the hitting area and stabilizing the clubhead for more forgiveness.
 

 

Callaway FT-iQ Driver

Degree：9°/10°

Flex：Regular/Stiff 

Shaft：Graphite

Straight distance. That's what you want from your driver. No need to think. Just pick a target and swing away. Say hello to the FT-iQ Driver, the longest, straightest driver we've ever created. Using the coolest, latest technology found in Stealth Bombers and Formula 1 race cars, the brightest minds at Callaway Golf have created a driver with one result in mind: long bombs down the middle. The refined head shape has a sleek look and raises the moment of inertia (MOI) for unprecedented accuracy off the tee. Turbo-charge your tee shots with Hyperbolic Face Technology, which raises ball speeds across the entire face for more distance. The FT-iQ Tour Driver produces a more penetrating ball flight and features a slightly open face angle for a look preferred by accomplished players. The exclusive Fubuki shaft from Mitsubishi Rayon adds to the incredible feel and performance. So pick a target and fire a smart bomb.

Which Callaway Golf Set should I get?

I just started golf, and I've been doing some reasearch. It seems to me like Callaways is a good brand to get. Since I'm on a budget, and just a beginner, i thought that i should just get a set. I looked at the Callaway sets and they dont seem to be too expensive.

Their called Callaway Top-Flite Sets. I dont know which set to get.
There is like 4 different types. And i dont know why but some sets seem to be more expensive than others. Like the Womens Golf club sets seem to be more expensive than the mens.

By the way here's the link:

http://shop.callawaygolf.com/Complete_Sets/

Oh yes, and I'm a girl, 5'5, if that helps.

Please help I really want to invest in good golf clubs, since they are quite expensive. Or if there are some other good golf sets, please let me know. Thanks!

since ur a beginner dont start off with callaway later on u might be fit for something else

Moisture Wicking

Waterproofing Basics:Liquid Moisture Movement Mechanisms

 Waterproofing basics:moisture movement mechanisms(part 1)

a) Massive inflow through building envelope's discontinuities.

 

 

This is the most powerful moisture movement mechanism and the one that could cause real catastrophes.

 

Rain or ground water can potentially penetrate through discontinuities as cracks, joints, penetrations, etc.

 

Main driving forces are gravity and wind action.

 

More massive water penetrations happen - in order of descending priority - through:

 

 

 

- basements

 

- flat roofs

 

- pitched roofs

 

- facades.

 

 

 

Water penetration in basements can assume dramatic dimensions in case of floods and/or hydrostatic pressure build-up.

 

Waterproofing in such cases must be combined with effective surface and subsurface water drainage systems.

 

Discontinuities need to be sealed with special construction sealants or flexible cementitious mortars. Except for a good waterproofing they may need some mason work.

 

The only hopeful fact is that these phenomena are sporadic and generally affect only limited locations of the buildings:

 

 

 

b) Capillary absorption or suction.

 

 

This is a mechanism mostly - but not exclusively - encountered in basements. Liquid moisture is wicked slowly and steadily through the capillary system of porous building materials as concrete, masonry etc.

 

This is the dominant mechanism in basements when discontinuities are absent.

 

Capillary absorption can evolve laterally or upwards defying gravity.

 

It is a molecular phenomenon. Polarity of water molecules make them adhere very well to most of the building materials. Furthermore they cohere very well, meaning that strong cohesive forces develop among them. Cohesive forces are even more powerful at the water surface and we say that water has a high surface tension.

 

 

 

How does the phenomenon evolves?

 

 

 

In phase no1

 

the big adhesive molecular forces between water and material's pores pull water molecules up the pore walls.

 

 

In phase no2

 

water surface tension assumes full responsibility to maintain the upward movement.

 

Surface tension strives to keep intact the notional elastic surface membrane by "obliging" surface molecules to follow the "leader" molecules in their upwards movement.

 

Imagine that you throw 2-3 links of a chain over the edge of a precipice. The momentum will pull together other links and the whole chain will move downwards.

 

The narrower the pores, the bigger the height of the water column.

 

Gravity will finally limit the height.

 

En passant we call rising damp the form of capillary suction in which we have mainly upwards movement.

 

 

 

And finally please mark the big irony:

 

 

 

It's the surface tension that prevents concrete and masonry from leaking like sieves!

 

Logic dictates that the minuscule water molecules - diameter of 0.28 nanometers - should pass freely through the gigantic - 2500 times bigger - material's pores.

 

Surface tension creates clusters of molecules and reduces the wetting capability of water. A touch of hydrostatic pressure will act as a catalyst for the wetting process.
