In an anchorage where there is little or no current or tidal stream, and in reasonably calm weather, a ship may be pointed to lie at an angle with the line of her cable by putting a spring on her cable. First heave in a shackle or so of cable. Now lead a hawser [...] out through the aftermost quarter fairlead, then for’ard and outboard of all, and shackle it with a joggle shackle to the cable outboard of the hawsepipe, thereby forming a spring. Then belay the hawser and veer the cable, and the ship's head should pay off away from the side on which the spring is rove until pointing in the required direction. Alternatively the hawser may be brought to an after capstan and hove in as the cable is veered.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - after%20capstan

A serve in which the racquet scrapes across the ball from left to right (for a right-handed [player]) and creates sidespin.  5, fiche 2, Anglais, - slice%20service

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Slice serve. Side spin and topsin are applied to the serve, causing the ball to keep low and change direction after bouncing. For example, slice serves from right-handed players cut sharply away to the left. The serve is particularly well-suited to grass or indoor courts, because these surfaces slow the ball down less than hard courts.  6, fiche 2, Anglais, - slice%20service

The sliced serve imparts side spin on the ball, with a touch of top spin, and produces lateral movement in the air and at the bounce... an effective slice serve will begin on a line straight at the receiver but veer away to his right.  3, fiche 2, Anglais, - slice%20service
