  MOUSE, n.  An animal which strews its path with fainting women.  As in
  Rome Christians were thrown to the lions, so centuries earlier in
  Otumwee, the most ancient and famous city of the world, female
  heretics were thrown to the mice.  Jakak-Zotp, the historian, the only
  Otumwump whose writings have descended to us, says that these martyrs
  met their death with little dignity and much exertion.  He even
  attempts to exculpate the mice (such is the malice of bigotry) by
  declaring that the unfortunate women perished, some from exhaustion,
  some of broken necks from falling over their own feet, and some from
  lack of restoratives.  The mice, he avers, enjoyed the pleasures of
  the chase with composure.  But if "Roman history is nine-tenths
  lying," we can hardly expect a smaller proportion of that rhetorical
  figure in the annals of a people capable of so incredible cruelty to a
  lovely women; for a hard heart has a false tongue.
  
  

  Mouse
     Heb. 'akhbar, "swift digger"), properly the dormouse, the
     field-mouse (1 Sam. 6:4). In Lev. 11:29, Isa. 66:17 this word is
     used generically, and includes the jerboa (Mus jaculus), rat,
     hamster (Cricetus), which, though declared to be unclean
     animals, were eaten by the Arabs, and are still eaten by the
     Bedouins. It is said that no fewer than twenty-three species of
     this group ('akhbar=Arab. ferah) of animals inhabit Palestine.
     God "laid waste" the people of Ashdod by the terrible visitation
     of field-mice, which are like locusts in their destructive
     effects (1 Sam. 6:4, 11, 18). Herodotus, the Greek historian,
     accounts for the destruction of the army of Sennacherib (2 Kings
     19:35) by saying that in the night thousands of mice invaded the
     camp and gnawed through the bow-strings, quivers, and shields,
     and thus left the Assyrians helpless. (See SENNACHERIB.)
     

  mouse
       
           The most commonly used computer pointing
          device, first introduced by Douglas Engelbart in 1968.
          The mouse is a device used to manipulate an on-screen
          pointer that's normally shaped like an arrow.  With the
          mouse in hand, the computer user can select, move, and change
          items on the screen.
       
          A conventional roller-ball mouse is slid across the surface
          of the desk, often on a mouse mat.  As the mouse moves, a
          ball set in a depression on the underside of the mouse rolls
          accordingly.  The ball is also in contact with two small
          shafts set at right angles to each other inside the mouse.
          The rotating ball turns the shafts, and sensors inside the
          mouse measure the shafts' rotation.  The distance and
          direction information from the sensors is then transmitted to
          the computer, usually through a connecting wire - the mouse's
          "tail".  The computer then moves the mouse pointer on the
          screen to follow the movements of the mouse.  This may be done
          directly by the graphics adaptor, but where it involves the
          processor the task should be assigned a high priority to
          avoid any perceptible delay.
       
          Some mice are contoured to fit the shape of a person's right
          hand, and some come in left-handed versions.  Other mice are
          symmetrical.
       
          Included on the mouse are usually two or three buttons that
          the user may press, or click, to initiate various actions such
          as running programs or opening files.  The left-most
          button (the primary mouse button) is operated with the index
          finger to select and activate objects represented on the
          screen.  Different operating systems and graphical user
          interfaces have different conventions for using the other
          button(s).  Typical operations include calling up a
          context-sensitive menu, modifying the selection, or pasting
          text.  With fewer mouse buttons these require combinations of
          mouse and keyboard actions.  Between its left and right
          buttons, a mouse may also have a wheel that can be used for
          scrolling or other special operations defined by the software.
          Some systems allow the mouse button assignments to be swapped
          round for left-handed users.
       
          Just moving the pointer across the screen with the mouse
          typically does nothing (though some CAD systems respond to
          patterns of mouse movement with no buttons pressed).
          Normally, the pointer is positioned over something on the
          screen (an icon or a menu item), and the user then clicks
          a mouse button to actually affect the screen display.
       
          The five most common "gestures" performed with the mouse are:
          point (to place the pointer over an on-screen item), click
          (to press and release a mouse button), double-click to
          press and release a mouse button twice in rapid succession,
          right-click+(to+press+and+release+the+right+mouse+button" rel="nofollow">right-click (to press and release the right mouse button,
          and drag (to hold down the mouse button while moving the
          mouse).
       
          Most modern computers include a mouse as standard equipment.
          However, some systems, especially portable laptop and
          notebook models, may have a trackball, touchpad or
          Trackpoint on or next to the keyboard.  These input
          devices work like the mouse, but take less space and don't
          need a desk.
       
          Many other alternatives to the conventional roller-ball mouse
          exist.  A tailless mouse, or hamster, transmits its
          information with infrared impulses.  A foot-controlled
          http://www.footmouse.com/)" rel="nofollow">mouse (http://www.footmouse.com/) is one used on the floor
          underneath the desk.  An optical mouse uses a
          light-emitting diode and photocells instead of a rolling
          ball to track its position.  Some optical designs may require
          a special mouse mat marked with a grid, others, like the
          Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer, work on nearly any surface.
