#mermins

[holly-natnicole]

If I were a mythical creature, I'd be:

A werewolf. Painfully transform on each full moon night into a grey wolf (Canis lupus) with my human mind gone for the duration of my time in wolf form, although I'm still smarter than actual wolves and thus able to strategise. Able to use moonlight magic in my human form. Can smell very well in both of my forms and have great hunting instincts in my wolf form.

Or

A mermin. Human (Homo sapiens) body from the waist upwards, cavefish (Cypriniformes cyprinidae) tail from the waist downwards. Bare-chested before puberty starts then wearing a seashell bra from age 10 'til at age 18 getting breasts-removal surgery. Can use siren's song to manipulate people by first singing 'bout what they want then singing what I want them to do. Able to breathe underwater and handle any water pressure.

Other werewolves and merfolks would have a different wolf form and fish tail respectively. Maybe some would have the same as me, but our human parts would still be distinct.

A lot of people consider cecaelia to be a type of mermin; this is a misconception as the various types of mermin are all ichthyoid. Cecaelia, rather, are therianthropes, which is a broad (and some would argue egocentric) term for animals which have prevalent characteristics that resemble a human’s, such as humanoid body shape (upper or lower), a “flat face,” and hands with opposable thumbs.

What follows, therefore, is my vision of why quantum computation...provides the simplest and most compelling example of a major application of quantum mechanics which the Copenhagen point of view fits like a glove.

Summary:

"HERMIT HARBOUR'S MERMIN: A RESEARCHER'S STUDY INTO THE CURIOUS CASE OF MOON GLOWING SEA CREATURES.

Mermin, first of all, is extremely old, now obsolete terminology for creatures currently called merfolk (inclusive of mermaids and mermen).

It is specifically used for the half fish, half human looking creature that uses their singing as bait.

On this coast, the term has survived the years.

It is, in fact, still used by the paranoid people of Hermit Harbour to refer to this specific myth of theirs.

Although they never as much utter a word about the beings, it is the most notable myth in town.

One of the many, sitting comfortably next to the ghostly spectres of The Choir, their walking trees and talking birds.

On oneself's experience, here's my account of what this tale entails."

The papers are signed off by Gem Stones, Scientist at the Facility of Research and Crafting.

[yazan-kalem-siyah06]

Pençe kilit hareketinde üç şehidin var Türkiye başın sağolsun

taş üstünde taş gövde üstünde baş birakmayin insallah

Düşünsene;

Köydesin.

Tarlada uğraşıyorsun.

Gazetelerden Yunanlıların Ege' yi işgal ettiklerini okuyorsun.

Yaşadığın köye çok uzaktalar. Sana gelene kadar durdurulacaklarını ve köyüne gelemeyeceklerini düşünüyorsun.

iki gün sonra gazeteye bakıyorsun.

Komşu şehirdeler. Yolu yarılamışlar.

Endişeleniyorsun.

Birkaç gün sonra gazete de çıkmaz oluyor.

Çevre köylerden haber geliyor.

Hepsinin basılıp yakıldığını duyuyorsun.

Bıçak kemiğe dayanmış.

Gidecek yerin de yok.

Bekliyorsun. Sabah oluyor , akşam oluyor sonra tekrar sabah oluyor .

Belki bizim köye gelmezler diyorsun.

Köyden silah sesleri gelmeye başlıyor.

Kaçınılmaz son geliyor.

Artık senin köyündeler.

Düşünüyorsun.

Eşini kızını ve oğlunu kilere saklıyorsun. Silahını alıp evin camından dışarısını gözlüyorsun.

Dakikalar sonra evin önünde 30 kişilik düşman müfrezesi görünüyor.

Basıyorsun tetiğe.

Biri indi.

Bir daha basıyorsun. Bir düşman daha indiriyorsun

Üç dört beş derken mermin bitiyor.

Dalıyorlar evin içine. Dipçik ile suratını dümdüz ediyorlar.

Aman beni vurup gitsinler de ailemi bulmasınlar diye dua ediyorsun.

Buluyorlar.

Askerlerden üçü " Biz bunu bir sorgulayalim " deyip pis pis gülerek eşini sürükleyip ahıra götürüyor.

Diğer üçü de kahkahalar ile " Biz de bunu sorgulayalim" deyip kızını bahçeye çıkarıyor.

Askerlerden biri oğlunu işaret ediyor.

" Öldürün bunu. Büyüdüğünde intikam almak ister"

iki asker vurmak için oğlanı evin arkasına götürüyor.

Çaresizsin.

Beni vurun onlara dokunmayın diyorsun ama nafile.

Ellerin bağlı. Bir şey yapamıyorsun.

"Herşey buraya kadarmış" diyorsun.

Tam bu esnada köyde silah sesleri başlıyor.

Ancak bu sefer çığlıklar köylülerden değil düşman askerlerinden geliyor.

Türk askeri giriyor köye.

5 Mehmetçik evin arkasına koşuyor oğlanı kurtarmak için. Düşman askerini indirip oğlanı kurtarıyorlar.

4 Mehmetçik. Ahıra saldırıyor eşinin ırzına geçmesinler diye. Son anda yetişiyorlar. Orada ki düşman askerini de vurup hatunu kurtarıyorlar.

Diğer Mehmetçikler evin bahçesine dalıyor. Kısa sürede çatışma bitiyor. Kıza da zeval gelmeden kurtarıyorlar.

O asker senin canını, namusunu , serefini kurtarıyor.

Şimdi sen bu askerlere " Oruç tutuyor musun, namaz kılıyor musun , cumaya gidiyor musun, hangi partilisin, mezhebin nedir, dinin nedir " diye soru sorar mısın ?

O noktadan sonra senin için önemi olur mu ?

Bizi birleştiren partimiz , rengimiz, dinimiz ya da mezhebimiz değildir.

Bizi birleştiren maya akrabalıktir, Türklüktür,

Birbirinize sahip çıkın.

Sizin köyünüze sıra gelmeden... Anadoluyu vatan yapan, " Yurtta Barış, Dünyada Barış " diyerek bağımsız ve özgür Türkiye Cumhuriyetini kuran, eşsiz, yüreğinde sadece vatan sevgi ve şuuru olan önderimiz Mareşal Gazi Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK, kahraman ve fedakar komutan ve silah arkadaşları ecdadımızı ve vatan millet yolunda can veren tüm şehitlerimizi saygı ve minnetle anıyoruz.

mer!min has a place in my heart. forever will

[curiouscorvidcreaturecompendium]

The girtablullû, aqrabuamelu, false-headed scorpion or scorpion people are ancient creatures, featured in the art and literature of ancient Mesopotamia and Iran dating back thousands of years. Early descriptions are sensationalized and anatomically unreliable, describing the girtablullû to have the upper body of a man and lower body and tail of a scorpion. The girtablullû is, morphologically, far more similar to other scorpions than this description would suggest. However, in addition to its enormous size, it has an elongated body and specialized pedipalps, giving it a tentative resemblance to a humanoid upper body. Most prominent, however, is the creature’s false head, which is similarly-shaped to a human’s.

Though the false head is hollow, girtablullû are highly intelligent and industrious, in some cases more so than mermin. They use their claws to dig and even work bronze and steel in rudimentary forges. It is difficult to accurately evaluate the extent of their intelligence, as their technological advancement is hindered by their limited dexterity, and they primarily communicate with each other through pheromones and vibrations. Though they are more defensive then aggressive towards humans, they do not seem interested in diplomatic pursuits—unsurprising, given their solitary nature even towards each other.

Room-temperature long-range ferromagnetic order realized in a confined molecular monolayer

How can we manipulate intermolecular exchange interaction to achieve long-range spin ordering? The answer to this question is of great importance in understanding and modulating magnetic behavior at the microscopic scale and in developing new macroscopic magnetic materials and devices. However, temperature and environment play a decisive role in molecular magnetic behavior and spin ordering. At high temperatures, thermal uplift disrupts the spin ordering and disables intermolecular exchange interactions. According to the Mermin-Wagner theory prediction, there is no long-range spontaneous magnetic ordering in two-dimensional systems. Therefore, realizing two-dimensional room-temperature ferromagnetic molecular materials still remains to be a challenge in this field. If solved, it will be vital not only for a fundamental understanding of the nature of magnetism but also for opening new avenues towards a new magnetic material platform.
