branch prediction          A technique used in some processors       with {instruction prefetch} to guess whether a {conditional       branch} will be taken or not and prefetch code from the       appropriate location.          When a branch instruction is executed, its address and that of       the next instruction executed (the chosen destination of the       branch) are stored in the {Branch Target Buffer}.   This       information is used to predict which way the instruction will       branch the next time it is executed so that instruction       prefetch can continue.   When the prediction is correct (and it       is over 90% of the time), executing a branch does not cause a       {pipeline break}.          Some later {CPU}s simply prefetch both paths instead of trying       to predict which way the branch will go.          An extension of the idea of branch prediction is {speculative       execution}.          (1998-03-14)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Bernice       bearer of victory, the eldest daughter of Agrippa I., the Herod       Agrippa of Acts 12:20. After the early death of her first       husband she was married to her uncle Herod, king of Chalcis.       After his death (A.D. 40) she lived in incestuous connection       with her brother Agrippa II. (Acts 25:13, 23; 26:30). They       joined the Romans at the outbreak of the final war between them       and the Jews, and lived afterwards at Rome.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Branch       a symbol of kings descended from royal ancestors (Ezek. 17:3,       10; Dan. 11:7); of prosperity (Job 8:16); of the Messiah, a       branch out of the root of the stem of Jesse (Isa. 11:1), the       "beautiful branch" (4:2), a "righteous branch" (Jer. 23:5), "the       Branch" (Zech. 3:8; 6:12).                Disciples are branches of the true vine (John 15:5, 6). "The       branch of the terrible ones" (Isa. 25:5) is rightly translated       in the Revised Version "the song of the terrible ones," i.e.,       the song of victory shall be brought low by the destruction of       Babylon and the return of the Jews from captivity.                The "abominable branch" is a tree on which a malefactor has       been hanged (Isa. 14:19). The "highest branch" in Ezek. 17:3       represents Jehoiakim the king.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Brimstone       an inflammable mineral substance found in quantities on the       shores of the Dead Sea. The cities of the plain were destroyed       by a rain of fire and brimstone (Gen. 19:24, 25). In Isa. 34:9       allusion is made to the destruction of these cities. This word       figuratively denotes destruction or punishment (Job 18:15; Isa.       30:33; 34:9; Ps. 11:6; Ezek. 38:22). It is used to express the       idea of excruciating torment in Rev. 14:10; 19:20; 20:10.
