In the House of                Representatives of the United States, and generally in                America, a negative decision operates to keep the                business before the body as if the motion had not been                made; but in the English Parliament, it operates to                postpone consideration for the day, and until the                subject may be again introduced. In American practice,                the object of the motion is to hasten action, and it is                made by a friend of the measure. In English practice,                the object is to get rid of the subject for the time                being, and the motion is made with a purpose of voting                against it. --Cushing.          {To beg the question}. See under {Beg}.          {To the question}, to the point in dispute; to the real             matter under debate.          Syn: Point; topic; subject.

5. (Old Law) To ask to be appointed guardian for, or to ask             to have a guardian appointed for.                         Else some will beg thee, in the court of wards.                                                                               --Harrington.             Hence:          {To beg (one) for a fool}, to take him for a fool.          {I beg to}, is an elliptical expression for I beg leave to;             as, I beg to inform you.          {To beg the question}, to assume that which was to be proved             in a discussion, instead of adducing the proof or             sustaining the point by argument.          {To go a-begging}, a figurative phrase to express the absence             of demand for something which elsewhere brings a price;             as, grapes are so plentiful there that they go a-begging.          Syn: To {Beg}, {Ask}, {Request}.          Usage: To ask (not in the sense of inquiring) is the generic                   term which embraces all these words. To request is                   only a polite mode of asking. To beg, in its original                   sense, was to ask with earnestness, and implied                   submission, or at least deference. At present,                   however, in polite life, beg has dropped its original                   meaning, and has taken the place of both ask and                   request, on the ground of its expressing more of                   deference and respect. Thus, we beg a person's                   acceptance of a present; we beg him to favor us with                   his company; a tradesman begs to announce the arrival                   of new goods, etc. Crabb remarks that, according to                   present usage, [bd]we can never talk of asking a                   person's acceptance of a thing, or of asking him to do                   us a favor.[b8] This can be more truly said of usage                   in England than in America.

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}.

topic drift n.   Term used on GEnie, Usenet and other electronic    fora to describe the tendency of a {thread} to drift away from the    original subject of discussion (and thus, from the Subject header of    the originating message), or the results of that tendency.   The    header in each post can be changed to keep current with the posts,    but usually isn't due to forgetfulness or laziness.   A single post    may often result in several posts each responding to a different    point in the original.   Some subthreads will actually be in response    to some off-the-cuff side comment, possibly degenerating into a    {flame war}, or just as often evolving into a separate discussion.    Hence, discussions aren't really so much threads as they are trees.    Except that they don't really have leaves, or multiple branching    roots; usually some lines of discussion will just sort of die off    after everyone gets tired of them.   This could take anywhere from    hours to weeks, or even longer.          The term `topic drift' is often used in gentle reminders that the    discussion has strayed off any useful track.   "I think we started    with a question about Niven's last book, but we've ended up    discussing the sexual habits of the common marmoset.   Now _that's_    topic drift!"
