   Tail \Tail\, n. [AS. t[91]gel, t[91]gl; akin to G. zagel, Icel.
      tagl, Sw. tagel, Goth. tagl hair. [fb]59.]
      1. (Zo[94]l.) The terminal, and usually flexible, posterior
            appendage of an animal.
  
      Note: The tail of mammals and reptiles contains a series of
               movable vertebr[91], and is covered with flesh and
               hairs or scales like those of other parts of the body.
               The tail of existing birds consists of several more or
               less consolidated vertebr[91] which supports a fanlike
               group of quills to which the term tail is more
               particularly applied. The tail of fishes consists of
               the tapering hind portion of the body ending in a
               caudal fin. The term tail is sometimes applied to the
               entire abdomen of a crustacean or insect, and sometimes
               to the terminal piece or pygidium alone.
  
      2. Any long, flexible terminal appendage; whatever resembles,
            in shape or position, the tail of an animal, as a catkin.
  
                     Doretus writes a great praise of the distilled
                     waters of those tails that hang on willow trees.

   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

            50,000 miles in diameter. The term sun spots is often used
            to include bright spaces (called facul[91]) as well as

                     The power of perception is that which we call the
                     understanding. Perception, which we make the act of
                     the understanding, is of three sorts: 1. The
                     perception of ideas in our mind; 2. The perception
                     of the signification of signs; 3. The perception of
                     the connection or repugnancy, agreement or
                     disagreement, that there is between any of our
                     ideas. All these are attributed to the
                     understanding, or perceptive power, though it be the
                     two latter only that use allows us to say we
                     understand.                                       --Locke.
  
                     In its wider acceptation, understanding is the
                     entire power of perceiving an conceiving, exclusive
                     of the sensibility: the power of dealing with the
                     impressions of sense, and composing them into
                     wholes, according to a law of unity; and in its most
                     comprehensive meaning it includes even simple
                     apprehension.                                    --Coleridge.
  
      4. Specifically, the discursive faculty; the faculty of
            knowing by the medium or use of general conceptions or
            relations. In this sense it is contrasted with, and
            distinguished from, the reason.
  
                     I use the term understanding, not for the noetic
                     faculty, intellect proper, or place of principles,
                     but for the dianoetic or discursive faculty in its
                     widest signification, for the faculty of relations
                     or comparisons; and thus in the meaning in which
                     [bd]verstand[b8] is now employed by the Germans.

   under the hood adj.   [hot-rodder talk] 1. Used to introduce the

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   underflow
  
      (or "floating point underflow", "floating
      underflow", after "{overflow}") A condition that can occur
      when the result of a {floating-point} operation would be
      smaller in magnitude (closer to zero, either positive or
      negative) than the smallest quantity representable.   Underflow
      is actually (negative) {overflow} of the {exponent} of the
      {floating point} quantity.   For example, an eight-bit {twos
      complement} exponent can represent multipliers of 10^-128 to
      10^127.   A result less than 10^-128 would cause underflow.
  
      Depending on the {processor}, the programming language and the
      {run-time system}, underflow may set a status bit, raise an
      {exception} or generate a {hardware} {interrupt} or some
      combination of these effects.   Alternatively, it may just be
      ignored and zero substituted for the unrepresentable value,
      though this might lead to a later {divide by zero} error which
      cannot be so easily ignored.
