Sun \Sun\, n. [OE. sunne, sonne, AS. sunne; akin to OFries.       sunne, D. zon, OS. & OHG. sunna, G. sonne, Icel. sunna, Goth.       sunna; perh. fr. same root as L. sol. [fb]297. Cf. {Solar},       {South}.]       1. The luminous orb, the light of which constitutes day, and             its absence night; the central body round which the earth             and planets revolve, by which they are held in their             orbits, and from which they receive light and heat. Its             mean distance from the earth is about 92,500,000 miles,             and its diameter about 860,000.          Note: Its mean apparent diameter as seen from the earth is                32[b7] 4[sec], and it revolves on its own axis once in                25[frac13] days. Its mean density is about one fourth                of that of the earth, or 1.41, that of water being                unity. Its luminous surface is called the photosphere,                above which is an envelope consisting partly of                hydrogen, called the chromosphere, which can be seen                only through the spectroscope, or at the time of a                total solar eclipse. Above the chromosphere, and                sometimes extending out millions of miles, are luminous                rays or streams of light which are visible only at the                time of a total eclipse, forming the solar corona.          2. Any heavenly body which forms the center of a system of             orbs.          3.

By the motion of the connecting rod, the             planet wheel is made to circulate round the central wheel             on the shaft, communicating to this latter a velocity of             revolution the double of its own. --G.

symmetric          1. A {relation} R is symmetric if, for all x and       y,          x R y   =>   y R x          If it is also {antisymmetric} (x R y & y R x => x == y) then       x R y => x == y, i.e. no two different elements are related.          2. In {linear algebra}, a member of the {tensor product} of a       {vector space} with itself one or more times, is symmetric if       it is a {fixed point} of all of the {linear isomorphisms} of       the tensor product generated by {permutations} of the ordering       of the copies of the vector space as factors.   It is said to       be antisymmetric precisely if the action of any of these       linear maps, on the given tensor, is equivalent to       multiplication by the sign of the permutation in question.          (1996-09-22)

symmetric multiprocessing          (SMP) Two or more similar {processor}s connected       via a high-{bandwidth} link and managed by one {operating       system}, where each processor has equal access to I/O devices.       This is in contrast to the "{compute server}" kind of       {parallel processor} where a {front-end processor} handles all       I/O to disks, terminals and {local area network} etc.          The processors are treated more or less equally, with       {application program}s able to run on any or perhaps all       processors in the system, interchangeably, at the operating       system's discretion.   Simple MP usually involves assigning       each processor to a fixed task (such as managing the file       system), reserving the single main CPU for general tasks.          {OS/2} currently supports so-called HMP (Hybrid       Multiprocessing), which provides some elements of symmetric       multiprocessing, using add-on IBM software called MP/2.   OS/2       SMP was planned for release in late 1993.          (1995-03-19)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Samothracia       an island in the AEgean Sea, off the coast of Thracia, about 32       miles distant. This Thracian Samos was passed by Paul on his       voyage from Troas to Neapolis (Acts 16:11) on his first       missionary journey. It is about 8 miles long and 6 miles broad.       Its modern name is Samothraki.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Sanhedrim       more correctly Sanhedrin (Gr. synedrion), meaning "a sitting       together," or a "council." This word (rendered "council," A.V.)       is frequently used in the New Testament (Matt. 5:22; 26:59; Mark       15:1, etc.) to denote the supreme judicial and administrative       council of the Jews, which, it is said, was first instituted by       Moses, and was composed of seventy men (Num. 11:16, 17). But       that seems to have been only a temporary arrangement which Moses       made. This council is with greater probability supposed to have       originated among the Jews when they were under the domination of       the Syrian kings in the time of the Maccabees. The name is first       employed by the Jewish historian Josephus. This "council" is       referred to simply as the "chief priests and elders of the       people" (Matt. 26:3, 47, 57, 59; 27:1, 3, 12, 20, etc.), before       whom Christ was tried on the charge of claiming to be the       Messiah. Peter and John were also brought before it for       promulgating heresy (Acts. 4:1-23; 5:17-41); as was also Stephen       on a charge of blasphemy (6:12-15), and Paul for violating a       temple by-law (22:30; 23:1-10).                The Sanhedrin is said to have consisted of seventy-one       members, the high priest being president. They were of three       classes (1) the chief priests, or heads of the twenty-four       priestly courses (1 Chr. 24), (2) the scribes, and (3) the       elders. As the highest court of judicature, "in all causes and       over all persons, ecclesiastical and civil, supreme," its       decrees were binding, not only on the Jews in Palestine, but on       all Jews wherever scattered abroad. Its jurisdiction was greatly       curtailed by Herod, and afterwards by the Romans. Its usual       place of meeting was within the precincts of the temple, in the       hall "Gazith," but it sometimes met also in the house of the       high priest (Matt. 26:3), who was assisted by two       vice-presidents.
