Street
A street is a public thoroughfare in a city, town or village, typically lined with Building, buildings on one or both sides. Streets often include pavements (sidewalks), pedestrian crossings, and sometimes amenities like Street light, streetlights or Bench (furniture), benches. A street can be as simple as a level patch of Dirt road, dirt, but is more often pavement (material), paved with a hard, durable surface such as Tarmacadam, tarmac, concrete, cobblestone or brick. It can be designed for both social activity and movement. Originally, the word ''street'' simply meant a paved road (). The word ''street'' is still sometimes used informally as a synonym for ''road'', for example in connection with the ancient Watling Street, but city residents and urban planning, urban planners draw a significant modern distinction: a road's main function is transportation, while streets facilitate public interaction.

Streets (band)
Streets was an American hard rock band made up of singer/keyboardist Steve Walsh, guitarist Mike Slamer, bassist Billy Greer, and drummer Tim Gehrt. They formed in 1982 in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Steve Walsh had been in the band Kansas and Mike Slamer has been in several other bands, including Britain's City Boy.

"The kind of music that I wanted to make wasn't being played at all in England, so I came here." Streets m ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Streets (punk Album)
''Streets'' is a compilation album of early British and French punk rock bands from a variety of independent record labels. It was an attempt at an end of year ‘round up’ and, significantly, was the first album released on Beggars Banquet Records (catalogue number BEGA1). The sleeve notes stated that: "1977 was the year that the music came out of the concert halls & onto the streets; when independent labels sprang out of the woodwork to feed new tastes; when rock music once again became about energy & fun; when the major’s boardrooms lost control. Suddenly we could do anything". Release and reception The Members' contribution to ''Streets'' was their debut on vinyl, and its impact was such that it contributed to a record deal with Stiff Records. It was also The Doll's recording debut. Within 14 months of the release of the compilation, both bands went on to have UK Top 30 hit singles; the Members with "The Sound of the Suburbs" (number 12 in January 1979) and the Do ...

The emperor Napoleon often played patience during his final exile to the island of St Helena, and this is said to be the version he probably played. Along with its variants, it is one of the most popular two-deck patiences or solitaires. The winning chances have been estimated as 1 in 10 games,Morehead (2001), p.203. with success typically dependent on the player's ability to clear one or more columns.Galt (1999), p. 83. The game is the progenitor of a large family of similar games, mostly with variations designed to make it easier to win, or " get out" Alternative names include Le Cadran () and, in the US, Forty Thieves, Big Forty and Roosevelt at San Juan. History "Napoleon at St. Helena" is recorded as early as 1870 by Annie Henshaw who describes it as a "most excellent game which has the added charm of having been ...
