The priting press

The priting press was created by the germany Johannes Gutenberg between 1430 and 1440.
Before that, books were written without this invention and the only people that knew to whrite were monks; so when Gutenberg created the priting press, people could do books faster than before beacause monks could linge a lot of time to copy a book, so the priting press was a fantastic invention that changed the history. 

THE SEWING MACHINE

The sewing machine is a practical invention that had done a revolution in the confection clothes ambit. 

In the ancient times people had just known what is sew, but not with a machine. They needed clothes to occult their intimate  parts of the body and for haven't got cold in winter. For that, they needed to use the hand sewing that has more than 20.000 years old.

After, all the materials proceed of the animals. The first sewing needles were made of bones or animal corns and the first threw  was made of animal sinew. Then, began to appear different types of needles as iron needles or eyed needles.

In 1755 was when the German, Charles Weisnthal invented the first mechanised needle but still not a machine. The first sewing machine was invented in 1789 by the Englishman Thomas Saint. Since then, many other inventors wanted to create a better machine and also of other type or other system. For example, Balthasar Krems invented a machine to sew only caps, the Scout John Ducan's used more than one needle, etc.

There are also people that consider the inventor could was Barthelemy Thimonnier in 1830 because his machine was the first functional. He was the first man that put them in the market and the director of the first factory of clothes.

But the first modern sewing machine and that has all the necessary elements was, probably, in 1844 and it was invented by John Fisher, but he hadn't got luck in his business.

And finally, less time before Fisher, appeared the most famous inventors: Elias Howe and Isaac Singer. In 1844, Howe ended his first machine and tried to commercialised them. He hadn't got exit because the world wasn't prepared to mechanise the sewing. He tried to popularise them but he broke and ended ruined.

Singer didn't include an advance in the machines, he stole the design of Howe and sold the machines in The United States. He obtained the exit and the fame that the others couldn't.

Many things happened until the business of Singer and Howe had ended as multimillionaires.

Now the machines have changed and have evolutioned a lot and their system is easier than the Singer's or Howe's.

The bicycle

In the ancient Egypt were fabricated artifacts with two wheels and one rod that linked the wheels. In China were fabricated something like this but the wheels was made of bamboo. 

In 1490 in a work of Leonardo da Vinci appeared a drawing of a bicycle, driven by pedals and a chain. This bicycle was invented in 1839. But first was invented a bicycle without pedals. 

In 1817, the german man, Karl Christian Ludwig Drais von Sauerbronn invented the bicycle. He called it the walking machine, in his language "laufmaschine". After that the french smith Pierre Michaux modified a bit this bicycle. 

In 1839 the Scottish Kirkpatrick Macmillan invented the bicycle with pedals. Macmillan never patented this bycicle and  later in 1846 Gavin Dalzell de Lesmahagow made a copy and diffused it. During 50 years people believed that Gavin Dalzell invented the bicycle with pedals. 

In 1890 the english man Jhon Boyd Dunlop invented the new wheel, a rubber wheel.

THE INVENTION OF THE UMBRELLA

Today all the people have in their houses an umbrella for the rainy days or sometimes for the sunny days, but not everybody know the origin of them.

The English name, umbrella derives to the Latin: umbra, it means shade. It has 2,400 years old.

This invention started in Mesopotamia; they used it for the sunny days like a sunshade, in that region it was normally the elevated temperatures for the latitudes.  

After, a Chinese woman, Lu Mei invented an umbrella that it was made from a material watertight. The legend explains that Lu Mei challenged his brother to build something that it can protect them from the rain. With only one night Lu Mei built a stick with 32 bamboo bars, covered with a fabric. But in China the umbrella existed in 11^th century B.C., before the legend.


In Greece and Egypt the umbrellas used as a sunshade. With the fall of the Roman Empire disappeared until at the end of the 15th century.

In France it became a luxurious fashion accessory back in the 17th century. However, the men built that but they didn't wear it, the umbrellas were a feminine article.


The men introduced the umbrella as a daily accessory in 18^th century thanks to Joseph Hanway.

In 1823, Charles Macintosh presented the first completely waterproof umbrella. And in 1852 Samuel Fox was the manufacturer who invented the umbrella with metal beams.

Nelson and her driver realized the first transcontinental trip with the car, they went from San Francisco to New York. 

In 1908 the Ford company made the first car of the town the Model T, the objective of Henry Ford is to create a car for the people that they don’t have much money, the price of the car was 850 dollars thus the farmers could bought it and it wasn't a play of the rich people.

The Diet

I follow a balanced diet, why? Because I often eat fruits and vegetables, and meat and fish once a week. The perfect weekly diet consists in: 55% of the daily diet should correspond to carbohydrates, fruits, vegetables and dairy. 15% will be covered by proteins and dairy. The remaining 30% will be in fats. In my house we eat vegetables once a week because we have got potatoes, spinach, lettuce... in our orchard, fruit is another food that comes by our orchard.
