Formerly, any malignant growth, esp. one attended             with great pain and ulceration, with cachexia and             progressive emaciation. It was so called, perhaps, from             the great veins which surround it, compared by the             ancients to the claws of a crab.

See {Epithelioma}. (2) {Scirrhous                cancer, or Hard cancer}, in which the framework                predominates, and the tumor is of hard consistence and                slow growth. (3) {Encephaloid, Medullary, [or] Soft                cancer}, in which the cellular element predominates,                and the tumor is soft, grows rapidy, and often                ulcerates. (4) {Colloid cancer}, in which the cancerous                structure becomes gelatinous. The last three varieties                are also called {carcinoma}.          {Cancer cells}, cells once believed to be peculiar to             cancers, but now know to be epithelial cells differing in             no respect from those found elsewhere in the body, and             distinguished only by peculiarity of location and             grouping.          {Cancer root} (Bot.), the name of several low plants, mostly             parasitic on roots, as the beech drops, the squawroot,             etc.          {Tropic of Cancer}.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
call-with-current-continuation          (call/cc) A {Lisp} control function that       takes a function f as its argument and calls f, passing it the       current {continuation}, which is itself a function, k.   k,       which represents the context of the call to call/cc, takes the       result of call/cc (which is the result of f) and returns the       final result of the whole program.   Thus if, for example, the       final result is to print the value returned by call/cc then       anything passed to k will also be printed.          E.g, in {Scheme}:             (define (f k)       (k 1)       (k 2)       3)             (display (call-with-current-continuation f))          Will display 1.          (2001-04-27)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Chaldees       or Chaldeans, the inhabitants of the country of which Babylon       was the capital. They were so called till the time of the       Captivity (2 Kings 25; Isa. 13:19; 23:13), when, particularly in       the Book of Daniel (5:30; 9:1), the name began to be used with       special reference to a class of learned men ranked with the       magicians and astronomers. These men cultivated the ancient       Cushite language of the original inhabitants of the land, for       they had a "learning" and a "tongue" (1:4) of their own. The       common language of the country at that time had become       assimilated to the Semitic dialect, especially through the       influence of the Assyrians, and was the language that was used       for all civil purposes. The Chaldeans were the learned class,       interesting themselves in science and religion, which consisted,       like that of the ancient Arabians and Syrians, in the worship of       the heavenly bodies. There are representations of this priestly       class, of magi and diviners, on the walls of the Assyrian       palaces.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Claudius       lame. (1.) The fourth Roman emperor. He succeeded Caligula (A.D.       41). Though in general he treated the Jews, especially those in       Asia and Egypt, with great indulgence, yet about the middle of       his reign (A.D. 49) he banished them all from Rome (Acts 18:2).       In this edict the Christians were included, as being, as was       supposed, a sect of Jews. The Jews, however soon again returned       to Rome.                During the reign of this emperor, several persecutions of the       Christians by the Jews took place in the dominions of Herod       Agrippa, in one of which the apostle James was "killed" (12:2).       He died A.D. 54.                (2.) Claudius Lysias, a Greek who, having obtained by purchase       the privilege of Roman citizenship, took the name of Claudius       (Acts 21:31-40; 22:28; 23:26).
