Sketch \Sketch\, n. [D. schets, fr. It. schizzo a sketch, a       splash (whence also F. esquisse; cf. {Esquisse}.); cf. It.       schizzare to splash, to sketch.]       An outline or general delineation of anything; a first rough       or incomplete draught or plan of any design; especially, in       the fine arts, such a representation of an object or scene as       serves the artist's purpose by recording its chief features;       also, a preliminary study for an original work.          Syn: Outline; delineation; draught; plan; design.          Usage: {Sketch}, {Outline}, {Delineation}. An outline gives                   only the bounding lines of some scene or picture. A                   sketch fills up the outline in part, giving broad                   touches, by which an imperfect idea may be conveyed. A                   delineation goes further, carrying out the more                   striking features of the picture, and going so much                   into detail as to furnish a clear conception of the                   whole.

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
stack n.   The set of things a person has to do in the future.    One speaks of the next project to be attacked as having risen to the    top of the stack.   "I'm afraid I've got real work to do, so this'll    have to be pushed way down on my stack."   "I haven't done it yet    because every time I pop my stack something new gets pushed."   If    you are interrupted several times in the middle of a conversation,    "My stack overflowed" means "I forget what we were talking about."    The implication is that more items were pushed onto the stack than    could be remembered, so the least recent items were lost.   The usual    physical example of a stack is to be found in a cafeteria: a pile of    plates or trays sitting on a spring in a well, so that when you put    one on the top they all sink down, and when you take one off the top    the rest spring up a bit.   See also {push} and {pop}.          At MIT, {PDL} used to be a more common synonym for {stack} in all    these contexts, and this may still be true.   Everywhere else {stack}    seems to be the preferred term.   {Knuth} ("The Art of Computer    Programming", second edition, vol. 1, p. 236) says:             Many people who realized the importance of stacks and queues       independently have given other names to these structures:       stacks have been called push-down lists, reversion storages,       cellars, nesting stores, piles, last-in-first-out ("LIFO")       lists, and even yo-yo lists!

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
stack          (See below for synonyms) A data structure for       storing items which are to be accessed in last-in first-out       order.          The operations on a stack are to create a new stack, to "push"       a new item onto the top of a stack and to "pop" the top item       off.   Error conditions are raised by attempts to pop an empty       stack or to push an item onto a stack which has no room for       further items (because of its implementation).          Most processors include support for stacks in their       {instruction set architecture}s.   Perhaps the most common use       of stacks is to store subroutine arguments and return       addresses.   This is usually supported at the {machine code}       level either directly by "jump to subroutine" and "return from       subroutine" instructions or by {auto-increment} and       auto-decrement {addressing mode}s, or both.   These allow a       contiguous area of memory to be set aside for use as a stack       and use either a special-purpose {register} or a general       purpose register, chosen by the user, as a {stack pointer}.          The use of a stack allows subroutines to be {recursive} since       each call can have its own calling context, represented by a       stack frame or {activation record}.   There are many other       uses.   The programming language {Forth} uses a data stack in       place of variables when possible.          Although a stack may be considered an {object} by users,       implementations of the object and its access details differ.       For example, a stack may be either ascending (top of stack is       at highest address) or descending.   It may also be "full" (the       stack pointer points at the top of stack) or "empty" (the       stack pointer points just past the top of stack, where the       next element would be pushed).   The full/empty terminology is       used in the {Acorn Risc Machine} and possibly elsewhere.          In a list-based or {functional language}, a stack might be       implemented as a {linked list} where a new stack is an empty       list, push adds a new element to the head of the list and pop       splits the list into its head (the popped element) and tail       (the stack in its modified form).          At {MIT}, {pdl} used to be a more common synonym for stack,       and this may still be true.   {Knuth} ("The Art of Computer       Programming", second edition, vol. 1, p. 236) says:             Many people who realised the importance of stacks and queues          independently have given other names to these structures:          stacks have been called push-down lists, reversion storages,          cellars, dumps, nesting stores, piles, last-in first-out          ("LIFO") lists, and even yo-yo lists!          [{Jargon File}]          (1995-04-10)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Stoics       a sect of Greek philosophers at Athens, so called from the Greek       word stoa i.e., a "porch" or "portico," where they have been       called "the Pharisees of Greek paganism." The founder of the       Stoics was Zeno, who flourished about B.C. 300. He taught his       disciples that a man's happiness consisted in bringing himself       into harmony with the course of the universe. They were trained       to bear evils with indifference, and so to be independent of       externals. Materialism, pantheism, fatalism, and pride were the       leading features of this philosophy.
