      kind of rough and grained leather; also a rough fishskin used
      for graters and files; hence (Fig.), a gnawing, corroding

      Syn: Vexation; mortification; peevishness; fretfulness;
               disgust; disquiet.
  
      Usage: {Chagrin}, {Vexation}, {Mortification}. These words
                  agree in the general sense of pain produced by
                  untoward circumstances. Vexation is a feeling of
                  disquietude or irritating uneasiness from numerous
                  causes, such as losses, disappointments, etc.
                  Mortification is a stronger word, and denotes that
                  keen sense of pain which results from wounded pride or
                  humiliating occurrences. Chagrin is literally the
                  cutting pain produced by the friction of Shagreen
                  leather; in its figurative sense, it varies in
                  meaning, denoting in its lower degrees simply a state
                  of vexation, and its higher degrees the keenest sense
                  of mortification. [bd]Vexation arises chiefly from our
                  wishes and views being crossed: mortification, from
                  our self-importance being hurt; chagrin, from a
                  mixture of the two.[b8]                        --Crabb.

               Sometimes he contrived, in deflance of the law, to live
               by coshering, that is to say, by quartering himself on
               the old tentants of his family, who, wretched as was
               their own condition, could not refuse a portion of
               their pittance to one whom they still regarded as their
               rightful lord.                                       --Macaulay.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   cooccurrence matrix
  
      Given a position operator P(i,j), let A be a nxn
      matrix whose element A[i][j] is the number of times that
      points with grey level (intensity) g[i] occur, in the position
      specified by P, relative to points with grey level g[j].   Let
      C be the nxn matrix that is produced by dividing A with the
      total number of point pairs that satisfy P.   C[i][j] is a
      measure of the joint probability that a pair of points
      satisfying P will have values g[i], g[j].   C is called a
      cooccurrence matrix defined by P.   Examples for the operator P
      are: "i above j", "i one position to the right and two below
      j", etc.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Cock-crowing
      In our Lord's time the Jews had adopted the Greek and Roman
      division of the night into four watches, each consisting of
      three hours, the first beginning at six o'clock in the evening
      (Luke 12:38; Matt. 14:25; Mark 6:48). But the ancient division,
      known as the first and second cock-crowing, was still retained.
      The cock usually crows several times soon after midnight (this
      is the first crowing), and again at the dawn of day (and this is
      the second crowing). Mark mentions (14:30) the two
      cock-crowings. Matthew (26:34) alludes to that only which was
      emphatically the cock-crowing, viz, the second.
