kit n.   [Usenet; poss. fr. {DEC} slang for a full software    distribution, as opposed to a patch or upgrade] A source software    distribution that has been packaged in such a way that it can    (theoretically) be unpacked and installed according to a series of    steps using only standard Unix tools, and entirely documented by    some reasonable chain of references from the top-level {README    file}.   The more general term {distribution} may imply that special    tools or more stringent conditions on the host environment are    required.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kid       the young of the goat. It was much used for food (Gen. 27:9;       38:17; Judg. 6:19; 14:6). The Mosaic law forbade to dress a kid       in the milk of its dam, a law which is thrice repeated (Ex.       23:19; 34:26; Deut. 14:21). Among the various reasons assigned       for this law, that appears to be the most satisfactory which       regards it as "a protest against cruelty and outraging the order       of nature." A kid cooked in its mother's milk is "a gross,       unwholesome dish, and calculated to kindle animal and ferocious       passions, and on this account Moses may have forbidden it.       Besides, it is even yet associated with immoderate feasting; and       originally, I suspect," says Dr. Thomson (Land and the Book),       "was connected with idolatrous sacrifices."
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kite       an unclean and keen-sighted bird of prey (Lev. 11:14; Deut.       14:13). The Hebrew word used, _'ayet_, is rendered "vulture" in       Job 28:7 in Authorized Version, "falcon" in Revised Version. It       is probably the red kite (Milvus regalis), a bird of piercing       sight and of soaring habits found all over Palestine.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Kohath       assembly, the second son of Levi, and father of Amram (Gen.       46:11). He came down to Egypt with Jacob, and lived to the age       of one hundred and thirty-three years (Ex. 6:18).
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
Kohath, congregation; wrinkle; bluntness

Kuwait has rebuilt its war-ravaged petroleum sector; its    crude oil production reached at least 2.0 million barrels per day by    the end of 1993. The government ran a sizable fiscal deficit in 1993.    Petroleum accounts for nearly half of GDP and 90% of export and    government revenues. Kuwait lacks water and has practically no arable    land, thus preventing development of agriculture. With the exception    of fish, it depends almost wholly on food imports. About 75% of    potable water must be distilled or imported. Because of its high per    capita income, comparable with Western European incomes, Kuwait    provides its citizens with extensive health, educational, and    retirement benefits. Per capita military expenditures are among the    highest in the world. The economy improved moderately in 1994, with    the growth in industry and finance, and should see further gains in    1995, especially if oil prices go up. The World Bank has urged Kuwait    to push ahead with privatization, including in the oil industry, but    the government will move slowly on this front.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $30.7 billion (1994    est.)       National product real growth rate: 9.3% (1994 est.)       National product per capita: $16,900 (1994 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): 3% (1993)       Unemployment rate: NEGL% (1992 est.)       Budget:    revenues: $9 billion    expenditures: $13 billion, including capital expenditures of $NA    (FY92/93)       Exports: $10.5 billion (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: oil    partners: France 16%, Italy 15%, Japan 12%, UK 11%       Imports: $6.6 billion (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: food, construction materials, vehicles and parts,    clothing    partners: US 35%, Japan 12%, UK 9%, Canada 9%       External debt: $7.2 billion (December 1989 est.)    note: external debt has grown substantially in 1991 and 1992 to pay    for restoration of war damage       Industrial production: growth rate NA%; accounts for NA% of GDP       Electricity:    capacity: 7,070,000 kW    production: 11 billion kWh    consumption per capita: 6,007 kWh (1993)       Industries: petroleum, petrochemicals, desalination, food processing,    building materials, salt, construction       Agriculture: practically none; extensive fishing in territorial waters    and Indian Ocean       Economic aid:    donor: pledged bilateral aid to less developed countries (1979-89),    $18.3 billion       Currency: 1 Kuwaiti dinar (KD) = 1,000 fils       Exchange rates: Kuwaiti dinars (KD) per US$1 - 0.2991 (January 1995),    0.2976 (1994), 0.3017 (1993), 0.2934 (1992), 0.2843 (1991), 0.2915    (1990)       Fiscal year: 1 July - 30 June       Kuwait:Transportation       Railroads: 0 km       Highways:    total: 4,270 km    paved: bituminous 3,370 km    unpaved: gravel, sand, earth 900 km (est.)       Pipelines: crude oil 877 km; petroleum products 40 km; natural gas 165    km       Ports: Ash Shu'aybah, Ash Shuwaykh, Kuwait, Mina' 'Abd Allah, Mina' al    Ahmadi, Mina' Su'ud       Merchant marine:    total: 47 ships (1,000 GRT or over) totaling 2,202,558 GRT/3,618,527    DWT    ships by type: cargo 9, container 3, liquefied gas tanker 7, livestock    carrier 4, oil tanker 24       Airports:    total: 8    with paved runways over 3,047 m: 3    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 1    with paved runways under 914 m: 2    with unpaved runways 1,524 to 2,438 m: 1    with unpaved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 1       Kuwait:Communications       Telephone system: NA telephones; civil network suffered extensive    damage as a result of the Gulf war and reconstruction is still under    way with some restored international and domestic capabilities    local: NA    intercity: NA    international: earth stations destroyed during Gulf war and not    rebuilt yet; temporary mobile satellite antennae provide international    telecommunications; coaxial cable and microwave radio relay to Saudi    Arabia; service to Iraq is nonoperational       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 3, FM 0, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 3    televisions: NA       Kuwait:Defense Forces       Branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, National Police Force, National Guard       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 610,205; males fit for military    service 363,735; males reach military age (18) annually 16,170 (1995    est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $3.4 billion, 13.3%    of GDP (1995)
