It was believed by                the ancients to be a specific for various diseases.

Subset-Equational Language          (SEL) A {declarative} language for set processing by Bharat       Jayaraman with subset and equational program clauses; {pattern       matching} over sets (it supports efficient iteration over       sets); annotations to say which functions distribute over       union in which arguments (for point-wise/incremental       computation over sets); defining {transitive closure}s through       circular constraints (implemented by mixed       top-down/{memoisation} and bottom-up strategy);       {meta-programming} and simple {higher-order} programming;       modest user-interface including tracing.          The SEL {compiler}, written in {Quintus Prolog}, generates       {WAM}-like code, extended to deal with set-matching,       {memoisation}, and the novel control structure of the       language.   The {run-time system} is written in {C}.          {(ftp://ftp.cs.buffalo.edu/users/bharat/SEL2)}.          E-mail: Bharat Jayaraman .          ["Towards a Broader Basis for Logic Programming",       B.

substrate          The body or base layer of an {integrated circuit},       onto which other layers are deposited to form the circuit.       The substrate is usually Silicon, though Sapphire is used for       certain applications, particularly military, where radiation       resistance is important.   The substrate is originally part of       the {wafer} from which the {die} is cut.   It is used as the       electrical {ground} for the circuit.          (1996-04-07)

Scapegoat       Lev. 16:8-26; R.V., "the goat for Azazel" (q.v.), the name given       to the goat which was taken away into the wilderness on the day       of Atonement (16:20-22). The priest made atonement over the       scapegoat, laying Israel's guilt upon it, and then sent it away,       the goat bearing "upon him all their iniquities unto a land not       inhabited."                At a later period an evasion or modification of the law of       Moses was introduced by the Jews. "The goat was conducted to a       mountain named Tzuk, situated at a distance of ten Sabbath days'       journey, or about six and a half English miles, from Jerusalem.       At this place the Judean desert was supposed to commence; and       the man in whose charge the goat was sent out, while setting him       free, was instructed to push the unhappy beast down the slope of       the mountain side, which was so steep as to insure the death of       the goat, whose bones were broken by the fall. The reason of       this barbarous custom was that on one occasion the scapegoat       returned to Jerusalem after being set free, which was considered       such an evil omen that its recurrence was prevented for the       future by the death of the goat" (Twenty-one Years' Work in the       Holy Land). This mountain is now called el-Muntar.
