Specialty Definition: Collecting

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Collecting is a hobby consisting of the acquisition of items of a particular category and organizing or displaying them. These collections are often highly organized and carefully cataloged.

Some collectors choose to focus on a specific subtopic within their area of general interest, for example 19th Century postage stamps, milk bottle labels from Sussex, or Mongolian harnesses and tack. Others prefer to keep a more general collection, accumulating any or all Star Trek merchandise, or postage stamps from all countries of the world.

Most of the common collecting areas have specialized commercial dealers that trade in the items being collected, as well as in any tools or display mechanisms that collectors use. Many of these dealers started as collectors themselves, then turned their hobby into a profession.

Here are some of the collections often made:

A variety of physically collecting things is collecting experiences of a particular kind, e.g. seeing things such as all vehicles of a particular kind (see trainspotting, aircraft spotting, metrophiles, bus spotting), bird-watching, visiting all countries systematically, swimming across all main rivers, visiting all McDonald's restaurants in a country, etc.

Horse collection

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Collection is a natural attitude of mind and body of the horse. When at its leisure, the horse will move with its body naturally relaxed. When the horse senses a challenge of some sort, it will prepare itself for action both by greater arousal of attention, and also by collecting its body. That means to draw the body in upon itself so that it becomes like a giant spring whose stored energy can be reclaimed and directed against the outside world by releasing whatever has held it under compression. The largest organic spring in the horse's body, and therefore the easiest one to observe in action, is composed of the spine and the associated musculature that draws it together in much the same way that a bow is drawn by an archer.

When a strange horse comes upon the scene, when a horse catches the scent of a predator, or when a horse scents a potential mate, the attention of the horse is naturally aroused and its body prepares for action. It raises its head, arches its back, and in so doing brings its legs more under its body where they can maintain the bending of the spine by their contact with the earth. With each step forward this spring is released slightly and then immediately recompressed.

Collection of the horse's body has two readily apparent benefits. The first is that if danger suddenly appears the horse has a large store of energy ready for instantaneous release and so it is much easier for it to spring away from the danger than if it had been caught flat-footed. The second is that the horse is properly prepared to perform movements like the levade. The levade is superficially like the motion in which the horse rears up. A rearing horse is very dangerous for its rider because it is an unbalanced movement and the horse must either fall foward to the ground or fall over backwards on its rider. In the levade, however, the horse's rear legs are well under it, and it can safely support itself in an upright position for a time and then lower itself to the ground under control.

Through training, the horse learns to collect itself when requested to do so by the rider. The observer receives the impression of great strength held under perfect control A horse doing a collected canter can, still under perfect control, move into an extended gallop like an arrow being released from a drawn bow.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

FEMALE, n. One of the opposing, or unfair, sex. The Maker, at Creation's birth, With living things had stocked the earth. From elephants to bats and snails, They all were good, for all were males. But when the Devil came and saw He said: "By Thine eternal law Of growth, maturity, decay, These all must quickly pass away And leave untenanted the earth Unless Thou dost establish birth" -- Then tucked his head beneath his wing To laugh -- he had no sleeve -- the thing With deviltry did so accord, That he'd suggested to the Lord. The Master pondered this advice, Then shook and threw the fateful dice Wherewith all matters here below Are ordered, and observed the throw; Then bent His head in awful state, Confirming the decree of Fate. From every part of earth anew The conscious dust consenting flew, While rivers from their courses rolled To make it plastic for the mould. Enough collected (but no more, For niggard Nature hoards her store) He kneaded it to flexible clay, While Nick unseen threw some away. And then the various forms He cast, Gross organs first and finer last; No one at once evolved, but all By even touches grew and small Degrees advanced, till, shade by shade, To match all living things He'd made Females, complete in all their parts Except (His clay gave out) the hearts. "No matter," Satan cried; "with speed I'll fetch the very hearts they need" -- So flew away and soon brought back The number needed, in a sack. That night earth range with sounds of strife -- Ten million males each had a wife; That night sweet Peace her pinions spread O'er Hell -- ten million devils dead! G.J.
