I am mortified. The last 8 hours generated only one more def, offering only 8 choices, which just seems woefully inadequate. I will extend the deadline to 5PM US Eastern time Thursday, and figure out how to manage it.
More defs, please!

With a little more than eight hours to go, I have only eight definitions – from Lodge, Widdis, Naylor, Keating, Madnick, Shefler and Barrs, and of course, a legitimate English language dictionary. Since two will be combined (as they are all but identical), that means that only seven choices – albeit excellent ones - will be available unless I get some more over the next few hours.
Please rise to the occasion and send in your defs. Or let me know if I’ve inadvertently missed your email.

Aww, I wanted a 25% chance of getting votes.
Not that it would help, probably.
Thanks for HARASsing people to submit more. 😃

We have here a total of 11 definitions of HARAS, one real and ten fake. Two definitions that were substantively identical have been combined.
- A mildly narcotic paste made from the crushed stamens of various species of anemones.
- A tall, often beehive-shaped superstructure set above the inner sanctum of a Hindu temple in northern Indian temple design.
- Breeding station for horses
- A large sand dune with smaller dunes that form on the leeward and windward faces.
- A male or female who is the center of attention for a group of males.
- First stage of molasses production at which point the juice is squeezed out of the raw cane.
- A man’s stuffed quilted doublet of a kind worn between the Middle Ages and the 17th
- To be overwhelmed by a herd of playful puppies at a dog farm
- In Buddhism, a state of mental unification where consciousness is absorbed in a specific object, arising through the cultivation of meditative calm.
- A mint and cinnamon flavored liqueur
- A Turkish fruit cordial made from dates, apple and apricot.

I think I’d like both 8 and 10, possibly simultaneously.

Please send me your votes by 9 PM Saturday US Eastern time, or the equivalent elsewhere. I will apologize in advance that there may be a delay in posting the results, which I will try to do on Sunday, but which may wait to Monday because of my travel plans.
