The steam issues from a narrow annular             orifice around the upper edge of the lower cup or             hemisphere, striking the thin edge of the bell above it,             and producing sound in the manner of an organ pipe or a             common whistle.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Cloud \Cloud\ (kloud), n. [Prob. fr. AS. cl[umac]d a rock or       hillock, the application arising from the frequent       resemblance of clouds to rocks or hillocks in the sky or       air.]       1. A collection of visible vapor, or watery particles,             suspended in the upper atmosphere.                         I do set my bow in the cloud.            --Gen. ix. 13.          Note: A classification of clouds according to their chief                forms was first proposed by the meteorologist Howard,                and this is still substantially employed. The following                varieties and subvarieties are recognized:             (a) {Cirrus}. This is the most elevated of all the forms                   of clouds; is thin, long-drawn, sometimes looking like                   carded wool or hair, sometimes like a brush or room,                   sometimes in curl-like or fleecelike patches. It is                   the cat's-tail of the sailor, and the mare's-tail of                   the landsman.             (b) {Cumulus}. This form appears in large masses of a                   hemispherical form, or nearly so, above, but flat                   below, one often piled above another, forming great                   clouds, common in the summer, and presenting the                   appearance of gigantic mountains crowned with snow. It                   often affords rain and thunder gusts.             (c) {Stratus}. This form appears in layers or bands                   extending horizontally.             (d) {Nimbus}. This form is characterized by its uniform                   gray tint and ragged edges; it covers the sky in                   seasons of continued rain, as in easterly storms, and                   is the proper rain cloud. The name is sometimes used                   to denote a raining cumulus, or cumulostratus.             (e) {Cirro-cumulus}. This form consists, like the cirrus,                   of thin, broken, fleecelice clouds, but the parts are                   more or less rounded and regulary grouped. It is                   popularly called mackerel sky.             (f) {Cirro-stratus}. In this form the patches of cirrus                   coalesce in long strata, between cirrus and stratus.             (g) {Cumulo-stratus}. A form between cumulus and stratus,                   often assuming at the horizon a black or bluish tint.                   -- {Fog}, cloud, motionless, or nearly so, lying near                   or in contact with the earth's surface. -- {Storm                   scud}, cloud lying quite low, without form, and driven                   rapidly with the wind.          2. A mass or volume of smoke, or flying dust, resembling             vapor. [bd]A thick cloud of incense.[b8] --Ezek. viii. 11.          3. A dark vein or spot on a lighter material, as in marble;             hence, a blemish or defect; as, a cloud upon one's             reputation; a cloud on a title.          4. That which has a dark, lowering, or threatening aspect;             that which temporarily overshadows, obscures, or             depresses; as, a cloud of sorrow; a cloud of war; a cloud             upon the intellect.          5. A great crowd or multitude; a vast collection. [bd]So             great a cloud of witnesses.[b8] --Heb. xii. 1.          6. A large, loosely-knitted scarf, worn by women about the             head.          {Cloud on a} (or the) {title} (Law), a defect of title,             usually superficial and capable of removal by release,             decision in equity, or legislation.          {To be under a cloud}, to be under suspicion or in disgrace;             to be in disfavor.          {In the clouds}, in the realm of facy and imagination; beyond             reason; visionary.

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
Saturday-night special n.   [from police slang for a cheap    handgun] A {quick-and-dirty} program or feature kluged together    during off hours, under a deadline, and in response to pressure from    a {salescritter}.   Such hacks are dangerously unreliable, but all    too often sneak into a production release after insufficient review.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
star out v.   [University of York, England] To replace a user's    encrypted password in /etc/passwd with a single asterisk. Under Unix    this is not a legal encryption of any password; hence the user is    not permitted to log in. In general, accounts like adm, news, and    daemon are permanently "starred out"; occasionally a real user might    have the this inflicted upon him/her as a punishment, e.g. "Graham    was starred out for playing Omega in working hours". Also    occasionally known as The Order Of The Gold Star in this context.    "Don't do that, or you'll be awarded the Order of the Gold Star..."    Compare {disusered}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
strided /stri:'d*d/ adj.   [scientific computing] Said of a    sequence of memory reads and writes to addresses, each of which is    separated from the last by a constant interval called the `stride    length'.   These can be a worst-case access pattern for the standard    memory-caching schemes when the stride length is a multiple of the    cache line size.   Strided references are often generated by loops    through an array, and (if your data is large enough that access-time    is significant) it can be worthwhile to tune for better locality by    inverting double loops or by partially unrolling the outer loop of a    loop nest.   This usage is borderline techspeak; the related term    `memory stride' is definitely techspeak.

start bit          A {bit} which signals the start of transmission of       a character on a {serial line}.   For an {RS-423} signal, the       line is normally at logical zero which there is no data and       the start bit is a logical one.   The zero-one transition tells       the receiver when to start sampling the signal to extract the       data bits.          [Is this upside-down?]          (1995-02-02)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Street       The street called "Straight" at Damascus (Acts 9:11) is "a long       broad street, running from east to west, about a mile in length,       and forming the principal thoroughfare in the city." In Oriental       towns streets are usually narrow and irregular and filthy (Ps.       18:42; Isa. 10:6). "It is remarkable," says Porter, "that all       the important cities of Palestine and Syria Samaria, Caesarea,       Gerasa, Bozrah, Damascus, Palmyra, had their 'straight streets'       running through the centre of the city, and lined with stately       rows of columns. The most perfect now remaining are those of       Palmyra and Gerasa, where long ranges of the columns still       stand.", Through Samaria, etc.
