      Note: In England, there were formerly four terms in the year,
               during which the superior courts were open: Hilary
               term, beginning on the 11th and ending on the 31st of
               January; Easter term, beginning on the 15th of April,
               and ending on the 8th of May; Trinity term, beginning
               on the 22d day of May, and ending on the 12th of June;
               Michaelmas term, beginning on the 2d and ending on the
               25th day of November. The rest of the year was called
               vacation. But this division has been practically
               abolished by the Judicature Acts of 1873, 1875, which
               provide for the more convenient arrangement of the
               terms and vacations. In the United States, the terms to
               be observed by the tribunals of justice are prescribed
               by the statutes of Congress and of the several States.
  
      6. (Logic) The subject or the predicate of a proposition; one
            of the three component parts of a syllogism, each one of
            which is used twice.
  
                     The subject and predicate of a proposition are,
                     after Aristotle, together called its terms or
                     extremes.                                          --Sir W.
                                                                              Hamilton.
  
      Note: The predicate of the conclusion is called the major
               term, because it is the most general, and the subject
               of the conclusion is called the minor term, because it
               is less general. These are called the extermes; and the
               third term, introduced as a common measure between
               them, is called the mean or middle term. Thus in the
               following syllogism, -- Every vegetable is combustible;
               Every tree is a vegetable; Therefore every tree is
               combustible, - combustible, the predicate of the
               conclusion, is the major term; tree is the minor term;
               vegetable is the middle term.

      Note: The pillar part frequently tapers downward, or is

               formerly used for landmarks or boundaries. --Gwilt.
  
      9. (Alg.) A member of a compound quantity; as, a or b in a +

            rents.

               legal terms -- Whitsunday, May 15, and Martinmas, Nov.
               11; and two conventional terms -- Candlemas, Feb. 2,

      {Term fee} (Law)
            (a), a fee by the term, chargeable to a suitor, or by law
                  fixed and taxable in the costs of a cause for each or

            is composed.

            submit; to force (one) to come to terms.
  
      {To make terms}, to come to terms; to make an agreement: to
            agree.
  
      Syn: Limit; bound; boundary; condition; stipulation; word;
               expression.
  
      Usage: {Term}, {Word}. These are more frequently interchanged
                  than almost any other vocables that occur of the
                  language. There is, however, a difference between them
                  which is worthy of being kept in mind. Word is
                  generic; it denotes an utterance which represents or
                  expresses our thoughts and feelings. Term originally
                  denoted one of the two essential members of a
                  proposition in logic, and hence signifies a word of
                  specific meaning, and applicable to a definite class
                  of objects. Thus, we may speak of a scientific or a
                  technical term, and of stating things in distinct
                  terms. Thus we say, [bd]the term minister literally
                  denotes servant;[b8] [bd]an exact definition of terms
                  is essential to clearness of thought;[b8] [bd]no term
                  of reproach can sufficiently express my
                  indignation;[b8] [bd]every art has its peculiar and
                  distinctive terms,[b8] etc. So also we say, [bd]purity
                  of style depends on the choice of words, and precision
                  of style on a clear understanding of the terms
                  used.[b8] Term is chiefly applied to verbs, nouns, and
                  adjectives, these being capable of standing as terms
                  in a logical proposition; while prepositions and
                  conjunctions, which can never be so employed, are
                  rarely spoken of as terms, but simply as words.

               The common European tern ({Sterna hirundo}) is found

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   tron v.   [NRL, CMU; prob. fr. the movie "Tron"] To become
   inaccessible except via email or `talk(1)', especially when one is
   normally available via telephone or in person.   Frequently used in
   the past tense, as in: "Ran seems to have tronned on us this week"
   or "Gee, Ran, glad you were able to un-tron yourself".   One may also
   speak of `tron mode'; compare {spod}.
  
      Note that many dialects of BASIC have a TRON/TROFF command pair
   that enables/disables line number tracing; this has no obvious
   relationship to the slang usage.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Thorn
      (1.) Heb. hedek (Prov. 15:19), rendered "brier" in Micah 7:4.
      Some thorny plant, of the Solanum family, suitable for hedges.
      This is probably the so-called "apple of Sodom," which grows
      very abundantly in the Jordan valley. "It is a shrubby plant,
      from 3 to 5 feet high, with very branching stems, thickly clad
      with spines, like those of the English brier, with leaves very
      large and woolly on the under side, and thorny on the midriff."
     
         (2.) Heb. kotz (Gen. 3:18; Hos. 10:8), rendered _akantha_ by
      the LXX. In the New Testament this word _akantha_ is also
      rendered "thorns" (Matt. 7:16; 13:7; Heb. 6:8). The word seems
      to denote any thorny or prickly plant (Jer. 12:13). It has been
      identified with the Ononis spinosa by some.
     
         (3.) Heb. na'atzutz (Isa. 7:19; 55:13). This word has been
      interpreted as denoting the Zizyphus spina Christi, or the
      jujube-tree. It is supposed by some that the crown of thorns
      placed in wanton cruelty by the Roman soldiers on our Saviour's
      brow before his crucifixion was plaited of branches of this
      tree. It overruns a great part of the Jordan valley. It is
      sometimes called the lotus-tree. "The thorns are long and sharp
      and recurved, and often create a festering wound." It often
      grows to a great size. (See CROWN OF {THORNS}.)
     
         (4.) Heb. atad (Ps. 58:9) is rendered in the LXX. and Vulgate
      by Rhamnus, or Lycium Europoeum, a thorny shrub, which is common
      all over Palestine. From its resemblance to the box it is
      frequently called the box-thorn.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Throne
      (Heb. kiss'e), a royal chair or seat of dignity (Deut. 17:18; 2
      Sam. 7:13; Ps. 45:6); an elevated seat with a canopy and
      hangings, which cover it. It denotes the seat of the high priest
      in 1 Sam. 1:9; 4:13, and of a provincial governor in Neh. 3:7
      and Ps. 122:5. The throne of Solomon is described at length in 1
      Kings 10:18-20.
