alternative press

alternative press (usually uncountable, plural alternative presses)

Despite shortages of money and supplies, a Government monopoly on printing presses and occasional police harassment, a new generation of samizdat, or self-published, journals is offering an open challenge to the official press. The alternative press now includes dozens of magazines in Moscow and Leningrad, with others reported in the Baltic republics, the Ukraine and Armenia.

1988 January 12, Bill Keller, “For Soviet Alternative Press, Used Computer Is New Tool”, in New York Times, retrieved 2014-02-04:

Nonobjective writers gravitate to the alternative press—or to the editorial page.

1999 December 5, M. Lewis Stein, “Letters to the Editor: Just the Facts, Ma'am”, in Newsweek, retrieved 2014-02-04:

"A lot of the issues in the magazine were the things we cared about in the early Seventies: racial equality, non-discrimination against gays, police harassment, housing. There weren't a lot of voices flying the flag for all those issues. Time Out, like others in the alternative press, flew all those flags."

2006 June 26, Ian Burrell, “Tony Elliott: Time Lord”, in The Independent, UK, retrieved 2014-02-04:

(publishing, uncountable) Collectively, newspapers or other printed publications which provide an editorial perspective and information differing from—and often dissenting from—the outlook and information provided by more established, conventional, or official publications.

"If it were not for the existence of feminist-controlled alternative presses, many works of creation and social criticism by women writers would not be published at all," said Ms. Aidoo.

1997 October 22, Lena Williams, “Celebrating Writers Who Defy All the Odds”, in New York Times, retrieved 2014-02-04:

(publishing, countable) A particular publisher or publication of this type.

From tár (“storehouse, repository”) + -ca (diminutive suffix). Created during the Hungarian language reform, which took place in the 18th–19th centuries. First attested in 1834.
The “wallet” (sense 1) and “portfolio (of a cabinet minister)” (sense 2) senses were modelled after German Portefeuille (“wallet; portfolio (of a cabinet minister)”), from French portefeuille (“wallet, folder; portfolio (of a cabinet minister)”), from porte (third-person singular indicative of porter (“to carry”)) + feuille (“sheet (of paper)”). The “feuilleton” sense (sense 3) was modelled after German Feuilleton (“feuilleton”), from French feuilleton (“feuilleton, literary article”), from feuillet (“page, leaf (of a book)”) + -on (diminutive suffix). The suffix was inferred from words such as álca, tálca and mérce.

hengeyokai

1985, David Cook, Oriental Adventures, TSR Inc., →ISBN
Hengeyokai are intelligent, shape-changing animals. Several subraces exist, each a different type of animal. They are found throughout the Oriental world, usually on the fringes of human-settled lands.

1998-01-28, Lee Gold, Re: B5 Filk: You Picked A Fine Time To Leave Us Sinclair, rec.music.filk
If a hengeyokai fails to concentrate (or perhaps gets distracted -- due to being beaten, seeing a mouse, fatigue), the human form's ears may get pointed or a tail may appear.

Hengeyokai transfer between forms almost instantly, though when in human form, they often retain some mark of characteristic of their true animal nature.

2001, Laurence C. Bush, Asian Horror Encyclopedia: Asian Horror Culture in Literature, Manga and Folklore, Writers Club Press, page 69:

2013-10-12, Jasin Zujovic, Hengeyokai level adjustment, rec.games.frp.dnd

secretary hands (plural)
Secretary hand (alternative)

It is written in three different Secretary hands: the first finishing at stanza 9 but with stanzas unnumbered,[…].

1961, Bernard Mellor, The Poems of Sir Francis Hubert, page 280:

When Mercy Harvey advised the nobleman to imitate her handwriting, she specified that he should write the address on the outside of the letter in "a small raggid secretary hand."

1998, Eve Rachele Sanders, Gender and Literacy on Stage in Early Modern England, page 173:

There are five scribes, all using variations on Secretary hands consistent with the third quarter of the fifteenth century.

2004, “Introduction”, in Stephen H. A. Shepherd, editor, Turpines Story, page xvi:

While originating at the end of the medieval period, the secretary hand was not widely employed until the early modern period, by which time it had completely displaced the earlier court hands.

2004, “Introduction”, in Helen Ostovich, Elizabeth Sauer, editors, Reading Early Modern Women: An Anthology of Texts in Manuscript and Print, 1550 - 1700, page 7:

Most authors, including dramatists, used both a separate secretary and an italic hand; in many cases the secretary hand was used for composing (that is, cursive or fluent) writing and italic for more formal copying.

It begins like a transcript, at the top of the page, without the least appearance or form of an intended original : it is written in the common secretary hand of ,the age, which Crawford mistook for a chancery hand;[…].

1819, Malcolm Laing, The History of Scotland, volume 1, page 373:

Her name, from Crawford's example of it, seems to me to be written in the same chancery hand, which renders the supposed forgery a mere copy, mistaken by Welwood for the original.

1830, John Pinkerton, The Literary Correspondence of John Pinkerton, Esq., volume 2, page 112:

But, unlike his posterity, Hercolani did not carry this sort of pleasantry too far, and his book remains a splendid specimen of the late chancery hand distinguished by decorative treatment of the ascenders and descenders and a discreet flourishing of initial and terminal letters.

2009, Stanley Morison, Selected Essays on the History of Letter-forms in Manuscript and Print, page 165:

(calligraphy, historical) Either of two styles of handwriting: a written form of black letter used in France and England from about 1350, developed in the Lateran chancelry in the 13th century, or a style of cursive handwriting introduced in the 1420s by Niccolò de' Niccoli, developed from humanist minuscule; a variety of either of these styles.

So you tell me, Senyor Parrige, how many habitats would be willing to take on their maximum possible population load in the form of half-starved, uneducated, indigent, disease-ridden dirtsiders who know nothing of habitat life and have no skills that are of much use in space?

2001, Roger MacBride Allen, The Depths of Time, Random House, →ISBN, page 378:

(science fiction, often derogatory) Someone who lives on the surface of a planet or moon, as opposed to in space.


ambush journalism

De Niro spokesman Stan Rosenfield said the actor was the victim of a new breed of "rat crew" video paparazzi who provoke celebrities into scenes and then sell the footage to high-paying tabloid television shows. "When our forefathers wrote the Constitution guaranteeing freedom of the press, they did not know about rat video packs who engage in ambush journalism," Rosenfield said.

1995 October 9, George Rush, “Raging De Niro flips lid over vid”, in New York Daily News, retrieved 2014-04-20:

Television entrapment isn't new: the "Dateline" segments echo Mike Wallace's hidden-camera ambushes on "60 Minutes" in the 70's. . . . But the program's success seems to be inspiring others to try their own brand of ambush journalism.

2006 May 17, Alessandra Stanley, “Gotcha! 'Dateline' Paves a Walk of Shame for Online Predators”, in New York Times, retrieved 2014-04-20:

Carolingian minuscule

en-noun

Carolingian minuscule (usually uncountable, plural Carolingian minuscules)

The Carolingian minuscule, which we have already found brought to perfection at Tours and at other centres of France, was the literary hand of the Frankish Empire, and extended its influence and was gradually adopted in neighbouring countries.

1912, Edward Maunde Thompson, An Introduction to Greek and Latin Palaeography, published 2013, page 403:

The Carolingian empire did not endure past the 9th century; yet Carolingian minuscule survived in France well into the 12th century, as it continued to be the preferred style of writing in monastic book production.

1995, William W. Kibler, editor, Medieval France: An Encyclopedia, page 1304:

Later Merovingian hands, however, often from Italy and drawing heavily from half uncials, prefigured the later Carolingian minuscule and achieved a certain graceful legibility.

2001, Steven Roger Fischer, History of Writing, published 2003, page 247:

(calligraphy, historical) A script developed to standardise writing in the Latin alphabet throughout the Holy Roman Empire, used between approximately 800 and 1200 CE.

coin

Onward and upward flashed the gigantic duplex cone, its entire whirling mass laced and latticed together—into one mammoth unit by green tractor beams and red pressors.

1931 September, E. E. "Doc" Smith, “Spacehounds of IPC”, in Amazing Stories, volume 6, number 6, page 560:

By the way they're braced, there are tractor beams and pressor beams and—there are vacuum tubes that have grids but apparently work with cold cathodes.

1945 June, Murray Leinster, “The Ethical Equations”, in Astounding Science Fiction, volume 35, number 4, page 122:

A pressor beam lashed out, and invisible hammer blow of repulsion, five times the strength of the enemy tractor.

1956 September, Poul Anderson, “Margin of Profit”, in Astounding Science Fiction, volume 58, number 1, page 58:

(science fiction) A device that generates a beam that repels other objects; or the beam itself.


repulsor beam

From repulse + -or and beam, a beam that repulses.

Installed at the center of mass and set to repulsor-beam, this one would be able to move the entire planetoid from its orbit.

1958 November, Poul Anderson, “A Bicycle Built for Brew”, in Astounding Science Fiction, volume 62, number 3:

Hooked my model tractor beam into ship's power. Now it's a repulsor beam too. Want in?

1987, Dorothy Catherine Fontana, “The Naked Now”, in Star Trek: The Next Generation, season 1, episode 3, spoken by Wesley Crusher (Wil Wheaton):

I always wondered how cloud city in ESB stay afloat and does not fall? Is it some kind of repulsor beam, or what?

1995 July 15, Umut Nurkan, “How does cloud city float?”, in rec.arts.sf.starwars (Usenet), message-ID <1995Jul14.190422.22468@hobbes.kzoo.edu>:

No, that indicates a cloaked Romulan vessel with a repulsor beam.

2008 February 20, Iarnrod, “Re: WTC Towers: The case for controlled demolition”, in alt.conspiracy (Usenet):

(science fiction) A device that emits an energy beam capable of pushing away other objects.


presser beam

We'll have them in three days, and it ought to be fairly simple to dope out the opposite of a tractor, too—a pusher or presser beam.

1931 September, E. E. "Doc" Smith, “Spacehounds of IPC”, in Amazing Stories, volume 6, number 6, page 544:

(science fiction) Alternative form of pressor beam.
