The higher                forms, as the cuttlefishes, squids, and octopi, swim                rapidly by ejecting a jet of water from the tubular                siphon beneath the head. They have a pair of powerful                horny jaws shaped like a parrot's beak, and a bag of                inklike fluid which they can eject from the siphon,                thus clouding the water in order to escape from their                enemies. They are divided into two orders, the                Dibranchiata, having two gills and eight or ten                sucker-bearing arms, and the Tetrabranchiata, with four                gills and numerous arms without suckers. The latter are                all extinct except the {Nautilus}. See {Octopus},                {Squid}, {Nautilus}.

Fault \Fault\, n.       1. (Elec.) A defective point in an electric circuit due to a             crossing of the parts of the conductor, or to contact with             another conductor or the earth, or to a break in the             circuit.          2. (Geol. & Mining) A dislocation caused by a slipping of             rock masses along a plane of facture; also, the dislocated             structure resulting from such slipping.          Note: The surface along which the dislocated masses have                moved is called the          {fault plane}. When this plane is vertical, the fault is a          {vertical fault}; when its inclination is such that the             present relative position of the two masses could have             been produced by the sliding down, along the fault plane,             of the mass on its upper side, the fault is a          {normal}, [or] {gravity}, {fault}. When the fault plane is so             inclined that the mass on its upper side has moved up             relatively, the fault is then called a          {reverse} (or {reversed}), {thrust}, or {overthrust},       {fault}. If no vertical displacement has resulted, the fault             is then called a          {horizontal fault}. The linear extent of the dislocation             measured on the fault plane and in the direction of             movement is the          {displacement}; the vertical displacement is the          {throw}; the horizontal displacement is the          {heave}. The direction of the line of intersection of the             fault plane with a horizontal plane is the          {trend} of the fault. A fault is a          {strike fault} when its trend coincides approximately with             the strike of associated strata (i.e., the line of             intersection of the plane of the strata with a horizontal             plane); it is a          {dip fault} when its trend is at right angles to the strike;             an          {oblique fault} when its trend is oblique to the strike.             Oblique faults and dip faults are sometimes called          {cross faults}. A series of closely associated parallel             faults are sometimes called          {step faults} and sometimes          {distributive faults}.

display hack n.   A program with the same approximate purpose as    a kaleidoscope: to make pretty pictures.   Famous display hacks    include {munching squares}, {smoking clover}, the BSD Unix `rain(6)'    program, `worms(6)' on miscellaneous Unixes, and the {X} `kaleid(1)'    program.   Display hacks can also be implemented by creating text    files containing numerous escape sequences for interpretation by a    video terminal; one notable example displayed, on any VT100, a    Christmas tree with twinkling lights and a toy train circling its    base.   The {hack value} of a display hack is proportional to the    esthetic value of the images times the cleverness of the algorithm    divided by the size of the code.   Syn. {psychedelicware}.

dogpile v.   [Usenet: prob. fr. mainstream "puppy pile"] When    many people post unfriendly responses in short order to a single    posting, they are sometimes said to "dogpile" or "dogpile on" the    person to whom they're responding.   For example, when a religious    missionary posts a simplistic appeal to alt.atheism, he can expect    to be dogpiled.   It has been suggested that this derives from U.S,    football slang for a tackle involving three or more people.

display standard          {IBM} and others have introduced a bewildering       plethora of graphics and text display {standards} for {IBM       PCs}.   The standards are mostly implemented by plugging in a       video display board (or "{graphics adaptor}") and connecting       the appropriate monitor to it.   Each new standard subsumes its       predecessors.   For example, an {EGA} board can also do {CGA}       and {MDA}.          With the {PS/2}, IBM introduced the {VGA} standard and built       it into the main system board {motherboard}. VGA is also       available as a plug-in board for PCs from third-party vendors.       Also with the PS/2, IBM introduced the {8514} high-resolution       graphics standard.   An 8514 adaptor board plugs into the PS/2,       providing a dual-monitor capability.          Graphics software has to support the major IBM graphics       standards and many non-IBM, proprietary standards for       high-resolution displays.   Either software vendors provide       {display drivers}, or display vendors provide drivers for the       software package.   In either case, switching software or       switching display systems is fraught with compatibility       problems.             Display      Resolution Colours Sponsor Systems             MDA       720x350 T    2   IBM      PC          CGA       320x200    4   IBM      PC          EGA       640x350 16   IBM      PC          PGA       640x480 256   IBM      PC             Hercules   729x348    2   non-IBM PC             MCGA       720x400 T             320x200 G 256 PS/2             VGA       720x400 T             640x480 G 16             SVGA       800x600 16 VESA             XVGA    1024x768 256 (IBM name: 8514)          T: text,   G: graphics.          More colours are available from third-party vendors for some       display types.          See also {MDA}, {CGA}, {EGA}, {PGA}, {Hercules}, {MCGA},       {VGA}, {SVGA}, {8514}, {VESA}.

Decapolis       ten cities=deka, ten, and polis, a city, a district on the east       and south-east of the Sea of Galilee containing "ten cities,"       which were chiefly inhabited by Greeks. It included a portion of       Bashan and Gilead, and is mentioned three times in the New       Testament (Matt. 4:25; Mark 5:20; 7:31). These cities were       Scythopolis, i.e., "city of the Scythians", (ancient Bethshean,       the only one of the ten cities on the west of Jordan), Hippos,       Gadara, Pella (to which the Christians fled just before the       destruction of Jerusalem), Philadelphia (ancient Rabbath-ammon),       Gerasa, Dion, Canatha, Raphana, and Damascus. When the Romans       conquered Syria (B.C. 65) they rebuilt, and endowed with certain       privileges, these "ten cities," and the province connected with       them they called "Decapolis."

Disciple       a scholar, sometimes applied to the followers of John the       Baptist (Matt. 9:14), and of the Pharisees (22:16), but       principally to the followers of Christ. A disciple of Christ is       one who (1) believes his doctrine, (2) rests on his sacrifice,       (3) imbibes his spirit, and (4) imitates his example (Matt.       10:24; Luke 14:26, 27, 33; John 6:69).
