ScrapBook is an extension for the Mozilla Firefox web browser which adds enhanced scrapbooking, page saving, bookmarking, and notetaking functionality.
The ScrapBook extension saves pages on the local computer. Therefore, saved pages won't be accessible from a smartphone or other computers of the user. However it can be used in combination with other synchronization services that can sync the folder where ScrapBook stores its data.
Scrapbook is a horror film about a young woman who is kidnapped, held captive, and repeatedly beaten and raped for several days. The title refers to a scrapbook that her captor uses as a record of the ordeals of his victims.
Scrapbook under the Mac OS is a small Desk Accessory which enables users to store images, text and sound clippings. It was included in the original Macintosh system software in 1984 with the Macintosh 128k, and was included throughout every Mac OS revision until Mac OS 9.
Since early versions of Mac OS were not multitasking - they could only run one application at a time - a specially-written DA such as Scrapbook was the only means of keeping content readily accessible to be pasted into documents.
Starting in Scrapbook version 7.5.2, Scrapbook could also store QuickDraw 3D-based 3D models. It came with two 3D models in this version; one of a palm tree and one of a pencil.

Cyclomedusa is a circular fossil of the Ediacaran biota; it has a circular bump in the middle and as many as five circular growth ridges around it. Many specimens are small, but specimens in excess of 20 cm are known. The concentric disks are not necessarily circular, especially when adjacent individuals interfere with each other's growth. Many radial segment lines — somewhat pineapple-like — extend across the outer disks. A few specimens show what might be a stem extending from the center in some direction or other.
Cyclomedusa is widely distributed in Ediacaran strata, with a number of species described. It has also been found in sediments dating to the Mayanian (~). Cyclomedusa was originally thought to be a jellyfish but some specimens seem to be distorted to accommodate adjacent specimens on the substrate, apparently indicating a benthic (bottom-dwelling) creature. The markings do not match the musculature pattern of modern jellyfish. The fossils have been conjectured to represent a holdfast for some stalked form — possibly an octacorallian, or something else entirely. Alternatively, it was thought that the described species actually represent different modes of preservation for one organism or that several different organisms have been grouped together under one name as a form taxon.
It is now suggested that Cyclomedusa was a microbial colony; D. Grazhdankin reinterprets the concentric rings and radial structures as comparable to those seen in modern-day microbial colonies exposed to homogeneously distributed environmental conditions.
Cyclomedusa is known from Neoproterozoic beds in Ediacara ( Australia), Finnmark ( Norway), Charnwood Forest ( England), Olenek ( Russia), North China, Newfoundland, Northwest Canada, Podolia ( Ukraine), the Ural Mountains ( Russia), the White Sea (Russia), and Sonora ( Mexico). It is regarded as a member of the Ediacaran biota— a group of somewhat obscure organisms that thrived just before most of the modern multicellular animal phyla appeared. Cyclomedusa has no known relatives.

I finally eased one in and asked about my dog Keiser, and was tickled to hear that he was still living.
It was old Keiser, and he had something treed about a mile from the house, across a ridge over in some slashes.
His massive head is supported by a forest of recycled Keiser machine air cylinders, programmed to massage his cranial muscles to prevent unsightly sores.
He profited by the instruction of the official directors of the choir and the church, Petzold and Schmidt, and very early he was an enthusiastic student of the compositions of the Hamburg director, Keiser, whose style influenced his own in his later work.
Following in his footsteps came Sebastiani, at the end of the century, and Keiser at the commencement of the eighteenth.
Sweating lightly in the overheated room, she lay on her stomach on the Keiser hamstring machine and jerked her heels toward her butt, feet hooked beneath padded bars.
Cliff Roberts disliked him so intensely that he accused Keiser of stealing his championship green jacket.
