 No. 78: The Bicycle
But the Scottish maker Macmillan added a feature to his "hobbyhorse," as he called it, around 1839.
The ordinary was so tricky that it finally gave way to the so-called safety bicycle -- the modern bike with two equal wheels, the back one driven by a chain and sprocket.
The safety bike was a lot like MacMillan's hobbyhorse design 46 years earlier.

A large part of its innovation lie in the fierce boldness in bringing the camera to rugged locations such as a small boat in the middle of a gale, and leave relatively less of the action staged.
The choice of topic was chosen less from Grierson's curiosity than the fact that he discovered the Financial Secretary had made the herring industry his hobbyhorse.
It premiered in London on a double-bill with Eisenstein's then controversial film The Battleship Potemkin, and received high praise from both its sponsors and the press.

 Laurence Sterne
A primary barrier to communication is what Sterne calls a hobbyhorse; a character is so focused on a topic or behavior that he is dominated and nearly defined by it.
Another barrier to communication is the association of ideas which often carries the speaker, including the narrator, off on his hobbyhorse.
The affection and the respect Toby and Trim have for each other enable them to be friends, despite their hobbyhorses.

The idea was sparked by a neighbor of mine who had the actual hobbyhorse you see depicted.
In a grand gesture of creative placation I borrowed my neighbor's hobbyhorse and enlisted my nephew for modeling duties, shooting one roll of fl and white film in my basement for reference.
Originally I was going to have the little boy flying over a Metropolis-style skyline but at the last moment had a change of heart and put him in deep space (it's easier to paint outer space than buildings).

 frizzyLogic: Get out that hobbyhorse and ride, girl, ride
It's a stupid hour in the middle of the night, but I just couldn't sleep because of my exponentially increasing anger over the no doubt almost non-existent UK media coverage of the massacre of civilians in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
And so dear reader, (anyone who's managed to get this far, that is), from the high-altitude vantage point that is the saddle of my favourite hobbyhorse, I will tell you what I think the deciding factor to be.
It is the fact that what is happening to Zimbabweans in Zimbabwe is also happening, and generally to a very much lesser extent, to white people in Zimbabwe.

Kinman has Jordan on her side as far as shifting the funding of local agencies onto local government from CDB grants.
I'm not sure if it's more depressing than Kolbert's stuff or not, but it might be because at least this feels a tiny bit more like we could actually have some control over the situation, as opposed to the vast uncaringness that is nature.

 Easongate: Hugh Hewitt's Hobbyhorse?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
In Jay Rosen's latest post, he links to a liberal blogger who calls the Eason Jordan scandal Hugh Hewitt's "hobbyhorse." Salon blogger Michael is an erstwhile fan of Jay's; his ardor seems to have cooled because Jay has three Jordan posts.
Palling around with the likes of Jarvis and Hewitt can't, on the face of it, be good for anybody.
It's with serious disappointment that I note, as of this writing, that the last three entries at PressThink are taken up with the Eason Jordan flap (see below), which has been Hewitt's hobbyhorse for the last couple of weeks now.
