A weapon which throws or propels a missile to a distance;             any firearm or instrument for throwing projectiles by the             explosion of gunpowder, consisting of a tube or barrel             closed at one end, in which the projectile is placed, with             an explosive charge behind, which is ignited by various             means. Muskets, rifles, carbines, and fowling pieces are             smaller guns, for hand use, and are called {small arms}.             Larger guns are called {cannon}, {ordnance},             {fieldpieces}, {carronades}, {howitzers}, etc. See these             terms in the Vocabulary.                         As swift as a pellet out of a gunne When fire is in                      the powder runne.                              --Chaucer.                         The word gun was in use in England for an engine to                      cast a thing from a man long before there was any                      gunpowder found out.                           --Selden.          2.

It             burns without ash, with explosion if confined, but quietly             and harmlessly if free and open, and in small quantity.             Specifically, the lower nitrates of cellulose which are             insoluble in ether and alcohol in distinction from the             highest (pyroxylin) which is soluble. See {Pyroxylin}, and             cf. {Xyloidin}. The gun cottons are used for blasting and             somewhat in gunnery: for making celluloid when compounded             with camphor; and the soluble variety (pyroxylin) for             making collodion. See {Celluloid}, and {Collodion}. Gun             cotton is frequenty but improperly called nitrocellulose.             It is not a nitro compound, but an ethereal salt of nitric             acid.          {Gun deck}.

Barometer \Ba*rom"e*ter\, n. [Gr. [?] weight + -meter: cf. F.       barom[8a]tre.]       An instrument for determining the weight or pressure of the       atmosphere, and hence for judging of the probable changes of       weather, or for ascertaining the height of any ascent.          Note: The barometer was invented by Torricelli at Florence                about 1643. It is made in its simplest form by filling                a graduated glass tube about 34 inches long with                mercury and inverting it in a cup containing mercury.                The column of mercury in the tube descends until                balanced by the weight of the atmosphere, and its rise                or fall under varying conditions is a measure of the                change in the atmospheric pressure. At the sea level                its ordinary height is about 30 inches (760                millimeters). See {Sympiesometer}. --Nichol.          {Aneroid barometer}. See {Aneroid barometer}, under             {Aneroid}.          {Marine barometer}, a barometer with tube contracted at             bottom to prevent rapid oscillations of the mercury, and             suspended in gimbals from an arm or support on shipboard.                      {Mountain barometer}, a portable mercurial barometer with             tripod support, and long scale, for measuring heights.          {Siphon barometer}, a barometer having a tube bent like a             hook with the longer leg closed at the top. The height of             the mercury in the longer leg shows the pressure of the             atmosphere.          {Wheel barometer}, a barometer with recurved tube, and a             float, from which a cord passes over a pulley and moves an             index.

Laurel \Lau"rel\, n. [OE. lorel, laurer, lorer, OF. lorier,       laurier, F. laurier, (assumed) LL. Laurarius, fr. L. laurus.]       1. (Bot.)

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
mundane n.   [from SF fandom] 1. A person who is not in science    fiction fandom.   2. A person who is not in the computer industry.    In this sense, most often an adjectival modifier as in "in my    mundane life...." See also {Real World}.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
maintainer          The person responsible for coordinating changes to       a package of {software} and arranging the distribution of       updates.   The term usually applies only to {free software}       where the maintainer (often the author) is doing it as a free       public service.          (2001-01-27)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
maintainer script          One of the scripts (preinst, prerm, postinst, postrm)       that may be included in a {Debian} {binary package}.   These       scripts may create and/or remove {symlinks}, files or       directories that, for some reason, could not be done directly       by {dpkg}.   Maintainer scripts frequently create or update the       symlinks in the /etc/rc?.d directories and start, stop, or       restart {daemons}.          (2000-05-31)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
maintenance          The modification of a software product, after       delivery, to correct faults, to improve performance or other       attributes, or to adapt the product to a changed environment.          Maintenance is an important part of the {software life-cycle}.       It is expensive in manpower and resources, and one of the aims       of {software engineering} is to reduce its cost.          (1996-12-27)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
Mean Time Between Failures          (MTBF, or "Mean Time Between Faults") The       {average} time (usually expressed in hours) that a {component}       works without failure.   It is calculated by dividing the total       number of failures into the total number of operating hours       observed.   The term can also mean the length of time a user       may reasonably expect a device or system to work before an       incapacitating fault occurs.          See also {Mean Time To Recovery}.          (1998-05-01)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
Mean Time Between Faults          {Mean Time Between Failures}
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
Mean Time To Recovery          (MTTR) The average time that a device will       take to recover from a non-terminal failure.   Examples of such       devices range from self-resetting fuses (where the MTTR would       be very short, probably seconds), up to whole systems which       have to be replaced.          The MTTR would usually be part of a maintenance contract,       where the user would pay more for a system whose MTTR was 24       hours, than for one of, say, 7 days.   This means the supplier       is guaranteeing to have the system up and running again within       24 hours (or 7 days) of being notified of the failure.          Some devices have a MTTR of zero, which means that they have       redundant components which can take over the instant the       primary one fails, see {RAID} for example.          See also {Mean Time Between Failures}.          (1998-05-01)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
mind mouse          A {pointing device} (unlike a {mouse} in design,       but serving the same purpose) which works via sensors in       contact with the user's skin.   The sensors are built into a       plastic base which fits on one finger and which is similar in       shape to a finger cast.          The principle of operation is presumably myoelectric, not       psionic, contrary to what the name implies.          As of the time of writing (1996), mind mice are not accurate       enough to be anything but novelties.          [Availability?]          (1997-04-07)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
monotonic          In {domain theory}, a function f : D -> C is monotonic (or       monotone) if          for all x,y in D,   x <= y   =>   f(x) <= f(y).          ("<=" is written in {LaTeX} as {\sqsubseteq}).          (1994-11-24)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
mundane          Someone outside some group that is implicit from the       context, such as the computer industry or science fiction       fandom.   The implication is that those in the group are       special and those outside are just ordinary.          (2000-07-22)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Mahaneh-dan       Judg. 18:12 = "camp of Dan" 13:25 (R.V., "Mahaneh-dan"), a place       behind (i.e., west of) Kirjath-jearim, where the six hundred       Danites from Zorah and Eshtaol encamped on their way to capture       the city of Laish, which they rebuilt and called "Dan, after the       name of their father" (18:11-31). The Palestine Explorers point       to a ruin called 'Erma, situated about 3 miles from the great       corn valley on the east of Samson's home.
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
