Anchor \An"chor\ ([acr][nsm]"k[etil]r), n. [OE. anker, AS.       ancor, oncer, L. ancora, sometimes spelt anchora, fr. Gr.       'a`gkyra, akin to E. angle: cf. F. ancre. See {Angle}, n.]       1. A iron instrument which is attached to a ship by a cable             (rope or chain), and which, being cast overboard, lays             hold of the earth by a fluke or hook and thus retains the             ship in a particular station.          Note: The common anchor consists of a straight bar called a                shank, having at one end a transverse bar called a                stock, above which is a ring for the cable, and at the                other end the crown, from which branch out two or more                arms with flukes, forming with the shank a suitable                angle to enter the ground.          Note: Formerly the largest and strongest anchor was the sheet                anchor (hence, Fig., best hope or last refuge), called                also {waist anchor}. Now the bower and the sheet anchor                are usually alike. Then came the best bower and the                small bower (so called from being carried on the bows).                The stream anchor is one fourth the weight of the bower                anchor. Kedges or kedge anchors are light anchors used                in warping.          2. Any instrument or contrivance serving a purpose like that             of a ship's anchor, as an arrangement of timber to hold a             dam fast; a contrivance to hold the end of a bridge cable,             or other similar part; a contrivance used by founders to             hold the core of a mold in place.          3.

(Arch.)             (a) A metal tie holding adjoining parts of a building                   together.             (b) Carved work, somewhat resembling an anchor or                   arrowhead; -- a part of the ornaments of certain                   moldings. It is seen in the echinus, or egg-and-anchor                   (called also {egg-and-dart}, {egg-and-tongue})                   ornament.          6. (Zo[94]l.)

Same as {Annulus}, 2 (b).          {Anchor stock} (Naut.), the crossbar at the top of the shank             at right angles to the arms.          {The anchor comes home}, when it drags over the bottom as the             ship drifts.          {Foul anchor}, the anchor when it hooks, or is entangled             with, another anchor, or with a cable or wreck, or when             the slack cable entangled.          {The anchor is acockbill}, when it is suspended             perpendicularly from the cathead, ready to be let go.          {The anchor is apeak}, when the cable is drawn in do tight as             to bring to ship directly over it.          {The anchor is atrip}, or {aweigh}, when it is lifted out of             the ground.          {The anchor is awash}, when it is hove up to the surface of             the water.          {At anchor}, anchored.          {To back an anchor}, to increase the holding power by laying             down a small anchor ahead of that by which the ship rides,             with the cable fastened to the crown of the latter to             prevent its coming home.          {To cast anchor}, to drop or let go an anchor to keep a ship             at rest.          {To cat the anchor}, to hoist the anchor to the cathead and             pass the ring-stopper.          {To fish the anchor}, to hoist the flukes to their resting             place (called the bill-boards), and pass the shank             painter.          {To weigh anchor}, to heave or raise the anchor so as to sail             away.

A strong passion or emotion of displeasure or antagonism,             excited by a real or supposed injury or insult to one's             self or others, or by the intent to do such injury.                         Anger is like A full hot horse, who being allowed                      his way, Self-mettle tires him.         --Shak.          Syn: Resentment; wrath; rage; fury; passion; ire gall;                choler; indignation; displeasure; vexation; grudge;                spleen.          Usage: {Anger}, {Indignation}, {Resentment}, {Wrath}, {Ire},                   {Rage}, {Fury}. Anger is a feeling of keen displeasure                   (usually with a desire to punish) for what we regard                   as wrong toward ourselves or others. It may be                   excessive or misplaced, but is not necessarily                   criminal. Indignation is a generous outburst of anger                   in view of things which are indigna, or unworthy to be                   done, involving what is mean, cruel, flagitious, etc.,                   in character or conduct. Resentment is often a moody                   feeling, leading one to brood over his supposed                   personal wrongs with a deep and lasting anger. See                   {Resentment}. Wrath and ire (the last poetical)                   express the feelings of one who is bitterly provoked.                   Rage is a vehement ebullition of anger; and fury is an                   excess of rage, amounting almost to madness. Warmth of                   constitution often gives rise to anger; a high sense                   of honor creates indignation at crime; a man of quick                   sensibilities is apt to cherish resentment; the wrath                   and ire of men are often connected with a haughty and                   vindictive spirit; rage and fury are distempers of the                   soul to be regarded only with abhorrence.

angry fruit salad n.   A bad visual-interface design that uses    too many colors.   (This term derives, of course, from the bizarre    day-glo colors found in canned fruit salad.)   Too often one sees    similar effects from interface designers using color window systems    such as {X}; there is a tendency to create displays that are flashy    and attention-getting but uncomfortable for long-term use.

anchor          (Or "span", "region", "button", "extent") An area       within the content of a {hypertext} {node} (e.g. a {web page})       which is the source or destination of a {link}.   A source       anchor may be a word, phrase, image, or possibly the whole       node.   A destination anchor may be a whole node or some       position within the node.          Typically, clicking with the {mouse} on a source anchor causes       the link to be followed and the anchor at the opposite end of       the link to be displayed.   Anchors are highlighted in some way       (either always, or when the mouse is over them), or they may       be marked by a special symbol.          In {HTML} anchors are created with the .. construct.       The opening A tag of a source anchor has an HREF (hypertext       reference) attribute giving the destination in the form of a       {URL} - usually a whole node or "page".   E.g.                Free On-line Dictionary of Computing          Destination anchors are only used in HTML to name a position       within a page using a NAME attribute.   E.g.                   The name or "fragment identifier" is appended to the URL of       the page with a "#":          http://www.fairystory.com/goldilocks.html#chapter3          (Though it is generally better to break pages into smaller       units than to have large pages with named sections).          (1997-11-15)

angry fruit salad          A bad visual-interface design that uses too many       colours.   (This term derives, of course, from the bizarre       day-glo colours found in canned fruit salad).   Too often one       sees similar effects from interface designers using colour       window systems such as {X}; there is a tendency to create       displays that are flashy and attention-getting but       uncomfortable for long-term use.          [{Jargon File}]          (1995-11-24)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Anchor       From Acts 27:29, 30, 40, it would appear that the Roman vessels       carried several anchors, which were attached to the stern as       well as to the prow. The Roman anchor, like the modern one, had       two teeth or flukes. In Heb. 6:19 the word is used       metaphorically for that which supports or keeps one steadfast in       the time of trial or of doubt. It is an emblem of hope.                "If you fear,                Put all your trust in God: that anchor holds."
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Anger       the emotion of instant displeasure on account of something evil       that presents itself to our view. In itself it is an original       susceptibility of our nature, just as love is, and is not       necessarily sinful. It may, however, become sinful when       causeless, or excessive, or protracted (Matt. 5:22; Eph. 4:26;       Col. 3:8). As ascribed to God, it merely denotes his displeasure       with sin and with sinners (Ps. 7:11).
