Word: marine mammal Part of Speech: noun 1. A mammal which lives partly or wholly in the ocean, or at least is heavily dependent on the ocean for its lifestyle; such as the cetaceans, the sirenians, the pinnipeds, the sea otter, or the polar bear. Example: The influence of the temperature of the Gulf-stream upon animal life in the ocean is very curious. The whale so sedulously shuns its warm waters, as almost to indicate their track by its absence ; while yet abundantly found on each side of it. The physical reasons are doubtless the same which prevent this great marine mammal from ever crossing the equator from one hemisphere to the other — a fact now well ascertained.

Example: There were some leather-workers, as 4 or 5 curriers or tanners, 2 kissers, 6 or 7 saddlers or fusters.
Word: fuster Part of Speech: verb Etymology: Possibly related to fuss or fester? Pronunciation: /ˈfʌstɚ/, /ˈfʌstə/ 1. To fret, whine, or complain.

To become marked with signs of age or decay. Example: She will clean her cottage — though its condition of age and fustering decay may render it an almost impossible task.

Example: And the poor spailpin fanach running like the devil, his clothes tearing on briars and brambles, and his feet soaking and dirty water running out of his boots, and the three big buckos giving him every dirty look if he fustered or faltered, looks that'd sour milk or peel paint from walls.

Example: Although there is no caliphally granted title on these coins, this, too, constitutes an expression of independence, since a malik usually only issues coins (copper and silver) of a recognisably different type: not aniconic, as these are, but bearing the image of a horse and rider.

An allotrope of carbon that is superhard, ferromagnetic and electroconductive. Labels: uncountable Example: Using laser beams similar to what doctors use for laser eye procedures, the researchers raised and rapidly cooled the temperature of the amorphous carbon, leading to the discovery of the Q-carbon that has a molecular structure stronger than a common crystal. Example: Q-carbon is ferromagnetic, something no other phase of carbon is known to be, and it even glows when exposed to energy. But, exciting as these things are, the most proximate application for Q-carbon is in back-conversion to more natural carbon crystals: With a simple melting process, Q-carbon can be turned to diamond under forgiving conditions.
