[Dixonary] Round 2816 - NETHERSKEN - Time to vote

Rather a thin crop this time, I'm afraid, though I've allowed an extra few hours.

Please vote for TWO definitions, as a public forum message (in reply to this one), before the
deadline, which is 7 pm BST on Monday 10th July. That will be 2017.07.10 1800 UTC, or about 2pm on
the US East Coast and 11 am on the US West Coast, and so on.

New players are welcome, even if you didn't enter a definition this round. Don't look in a
dictionary. Full rules, if you're curious, can be seen at www.dixonary.net.

1: the merest trifle; a straw.

2: an inexpensive lodging house.

3: indifference to insult and abuse.

4: a layer of loose rock overlaying solid rock .

5: a young crustacean, prior to its first molting.

6: a name for gin, or for a particular quality of gin.

7: [Theo.] the Mortal sin of Lust (Martin Luther 1517)

8: a type of fine sable paintbrush used in oil painting.

9: [obs. Bio.] nonce word, the highly colored rear parts of an adult male alpha mandrill in the
breeding season.

Best wishes,
Tim Bourne.
