Die (integrated circuit)
A die in the context of integrated circuits is a small block of semiconducting material, on which a given functional circuit is fabricated. Typically, integrated circuits are produced in large batches on a single wafer of electronic-grade silicon (EGS) or other semiconductor (such as GaAs) through processes such as photolithography. The wafer is cut (“diced”) into many pieces, each containing one copy of the circuit. Each of these pieces is called a die.
There are three commonly used plural forms: dice, dies, and die.

Terra (satellite)
Terra (EOS AM-1) is a multi-national NASA scientific research satellite in a Sun-synchronous orbit around the Earth. It is the flagship of the Earth Observing System (EOS). The name "Terra" comes from the Latin word for Earth.
Launch
The satellite was launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base on December 18, 1999, aboard an Atlas IIAS vehicle and began collecting data on February 24, 2000. It was placed into a near-polar, sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 705km, with a 10:30am descending node.
Mission
Terra carries a payload of five remote sensors designed to monitor the state of Earth's environment and ongoing changes in its climate system:
Data from the satellite helps scientists better understand the spread of pollution around the globe. Studies have used instruments on Terra to examine trends in global carbon monoxide and aerosol pollution. The data collected by Terra will ultimately become a new, 15-year global data set.

Terra (currency)
Terra (The Trade Reference Currency, TRC) is the name of a possible "world currency". The concept was proposed by Belgian economist and expert on monetary systems Bernard A. Lietaer in 2001, based on a similar proposal from the 1930s.
The currency is meant to be based on a basket of the 9-12 most important commodities (according to their importance in worldwide trade). Lietaer opines this would provide a currency that wouldn't suffer from inflation:
Terra = reference unit defined as standardized basket of key internationally traded commodities & services.
Example: 100 Terra =
1 barrel of oil
+ 10 bushels of wheat
+ 20 kg of copper
...
+ 1/10 of ounce of gold
NB: any standardizable good or service can be included.
Similar stability to gold standard, but with basket instead of single commodity (more stable than any one component)...
Terra is Inflation-resistant by definition.

Myth
A myth is a traditional or legendary story, collection, or study. It is derived from the Greek word mythos (μῦθος), which simply means "story". Mythology can refer either to the study of myths, or to a body or collection of myths. A myth also can be a made up story to explain why something exists.
Academic usage
Generally associated with the academic fields of mythology, mythography or folkloristics, a myth can be a story involving symbols that are capable of multiple meanings. The body of a myth in any given culture usually includes a cosmogonical or creation myth, concerning the origins of the world, or how the world and its creatures came into existence. The active beings in myths are generally gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines or animals and plants. Most myths are set in a timeless past before recorded and critical history begins.
A myth is a sacred narrative in the sense that it holds religious or spiritual significance for those who tell it. Myths also contribute to and express systems of thoughts and values. Use of the term by scholars implies neither the truth nor the falseness of the narrative. To the source culture, however, a myth by definition is "true", in that it embodies beliefs, concepts and ways of questioning to make sense of the world.

Mythos (journal)
Mythos: Rivista di Storia delle Religioni is an annual peer-reviewed academic journal published by Giuseppe Sciascia Editore on behalf of the University of Palermo. It was established in 1989 by Giuseppe Martorana, with a new series started in 2007. It reviews religious narrative and mythos in Italian, French, English, German, and Spanish. The current editors-in-chief are Nicola Cusumano (University of Palermo) and Corinne Bonnet (University of Toulouse).

Mythos (video game)
Mythos is a multiplayer role-playing video game that was originally under development by Flagship Studios Seattle, a subdivision of Flagship Studios, a video game company composed largely of ex-Blizzard North employees who were lead producers of the Diablo series. Due to financial issues at Flagship Studios, Flagship Seattle was subsequently dissolved, leaving the intellectual property rights in the hands of the Korean game company HanbitSoft. HanbitSoft's corporate partners will continue to develop Mythos for a planned release in South Korea and North America.
Mythos is similar in style to Diablo, utilizing a similar interface and perspective, extensive map and item randomization, and a high fantasy setting. Its development was led by Travis Baldree, creator of the action RPG FATE, now a co-founder of Runic Games.
Development history
Flagship Studios (2006-mid-2008)
Originally codenamed "Project Tugboat," the game started as a networking technology test for Flagship Studios' multiplayer game Hellgate: London. By late 2006, the test project had grown into an independent game scheduled for a separate release. Its development was led by Travis Baldree and a newly formed Seattle offshoot of Flagship which remained largely separate from the development of Hellgate.Mythos was built upon the same core engine and technology that Hellgate: London used.

Terra Satellite Tracks 10 Years Of Change [HD]
On December 18, 1999, NASA launched Terra, the first of a series of large satellites meant to monitor the health of our planet. Terra carries five instruments, including two from Japan and Canada, that together track Earth's land, atmosphere, and ocean. Terra's primary mission is to answer the question: How is the Earth changing and what are the consequences of change for life on Earth? Here are some of the changes Terra has observed. Credit: NASA

Terra's Innovative Satellite Data Analytics
This 5 1/2 minute video describes the reduction in risk, time, and cost realized through the integration of Terra's natural resource exploration tools with conventional exploration data sets. The Terra tools inform on both subsurface structure and mineral presence / hydrocarbon charge. For example, in oil & gas, the explorer can expect to reduce exploration costs by 50% with double or triple the success rates. The savings are realized through cost efficiencies in seismic and drilling budgets which result from better subsurface modeling prior to seismic acquisition and through better drilling target and location selection. www.terrainsight.com

Terra's Orbital Drift
In 2020, Terra completed its final inclination maneuver, using some of its limited fuel supply, to maintain that crossing time. Since that final inclination maneuver, Terra has continuously drifted to an earlier equatorial crossing time. To ensure Terra, with limited fuel supplies, is a safe distance from other missions in the Earth Observing Satellite constellation orbit, Terra will be lowered to a new orbit in 2022, where it will be able to collect valuable data at an even earlier crossing time. As Terra’s crossing time creeps earlier, small changes will be noticeable in the data and imagery collected by the instruments aboard Terra. The impact on science is expected to be minimal. In fact, some impacts could prove beneficial to some areas of research, like land morphology, surface tempe...

Natura incontaminata. Colore dominante: verde, ovunque. Una foresta impenetrabile e fantastica. Fiumi cristallini. Dolomiti? No, foresta amazzonica. Ma si intravedono bandiere francesi, si parla francese. Eppure siamo in America del Sud, siamo in Guiana, ma in tutto e per tutto è Europa.. E lì in fondo, vicino alle bandiere francesi, sembra esserci qualcosa di diverso, un missile, sì, un enorme missile lanciatore, l’Ariane five, quello che porterà in orbita Planck, un satellite a cui ho dedicato in maniera quasi esclusiva la mia vita negli ultimi due anni. E oggi è il giorno del lancio di Planck. Il lancio è previsto alle 10:12 ma partiamo la mattina alle sei. Dopo una lunga attesa sotto una pioggia incessante, raggiungiamo il sito di lancio.

Natura incontaminata. Colore dominante: verde, ovunque. Una foresta impenetrabile e fantastica. Fiumi cristallini.
Dolomiti? No, foresta amazzonica. Ma si intravedono bandiere francesi, si parla francese. Eppure siamo in America del Sud, siamo in Guiana, ma in tutto e per tutto è Europa..
E lì in fondo, vicino alle bandiere francesi, sembra esserci qualcosa di diverso, un missile, sì, un enorme missile lanciatore, l’Ariane five, quello che porterà in orbita Planck, un satellite a cui ho dedicato in maniera quasi esclusiva la mia vita negli ultimi due anni.
E oggi è il giorno del lancio di Planck.
Il lancio è previsto alle 10:12 ma partiamo la mattina alle sei. Dopo una lunga attesa sotto una pioggia incessante, raggiungiamo il sito di lancio. L’Ariane è in fondo, a 6 km di distanza: è la prima emozione.
Ora procede tutto velocissimamente: mancano 15 minuti al lancio e le nuvole pare si facciano da parte per lasciare passare l’Ariane, si spostano per farcelo vedere meglio. Ed ecco che parte in un cielo assolutamente azzurro, in un silenzio surreale. Difficile trattenere le lacrime.
Siamo collegati al centro di controllo e sentiamo che sta andando tutto nel modo migliore. Dopo 29 minuti, Planck è libero nello spazio!
Questo è un momento critico perché il satellite deve orientarsi automaticamente verso il Sole e acquisire energia attraverso i pannelli solari. Dopo 10 minuti, esattamente come previsto, comunica con la Terra. Tutto perfetto!
È notte e sembra tutto finito ma siamo ancora sotto shock.
In realtà per noi il vero lavoro è appena iniziato. Tra pochi giorni inizia la vera avventura scientifica che ci porterà a scoprire come è fatto l’Universo, un fantastico, misterioso ma arzillo vecchietto di ben 14 miliardi di anni.
Ma ci pensate? Siamo nella foresta amazzonica, e lì in mezzo a questa natura straordinaria c’è uno degli oggetti più tecnologici che l’uomo (e la donna) abbiano mai costruito. Sembra un controsenso ma non lo è perchè la tecnologia e l’innovazione possono convivere e aiutarsi a vicenda, soprattutto quella dello Spazio.

On December 18, 1999, NASA launched Terra, the first of a series of large satellites meant to monitor the health of our planet. Terra carries five instruments, including two from Japan and Canada, that together track Earth's land, atmosphere, and ocean. Terra's primary mission is to answer the question: How is the Earth changing and what are the consequences of change for life on Earth? Here are some of the changes Terra has observed.

This 5 1/2 minute video describes the reduction in risk, time, and cost realized through the integration of Terra's natural resource exploration tools with conventional exploration data sets. The Terra tools inform on both subsurface structure and mineral presence / hydrocarbon charge. For example, in oil & gas, the explorer can expect to reduce exploration costs by 50% with double or triple the success rates. The savings are realized through cost efficiencies in seismic and drilling budgets which result from better subsurface modeling prior to seismic acquisition and through better drilling target and location selection. www.terrainsight.com

In 2020, Terra completed its final inclination maneuver, using some of its limited fuel supply, to maintain that crossing time. Since that final inclination maneuver, Terra has continuously drifted to an earlier equatorial crossing time. To ensure Terra, with limited fuel supplies, is a safe distance from other missions in the Earth Observing Satellite constellation orbit, Terra will be lowered to a new orbit in 2022, where it will be able to collect valuable data at an even earlier crossing time. As Terra’s crossing time creeps earlier, small changes will be noticeable in the data and imagery collected by the instruments aboard Terra. The impact on science is expected to be minimal. In fact, some impacts could prove beneficial to some areas of research, like land morphology, surface temperature, and climate research.

Natura incontaminata. Colore dominante: verde, ovunque. Una foresta impenetrabile e fantastica. Fiumi cristallini.
Dolomiti? No, foresta amazzonica. Ma si intravedono bandiere francesi, si parla francese. Eppure siamo in America del Sud, siamo in Guiana, ma in tutto e per tutto è Europa..
E lì in fondo, vicino alle bandiere francesi, sembra esserci qualcosa di diverso, un missile, sì, un enorme missile lanciatore, l’Ariane five, quello che porterà in orbita Planck, un satellite a cui ho dedicato in maniera quasi esclusiva la mia vita negli ultimi due anni.
E oggi è il giorno del lancio di Planck.
Il lancio è previsto alle 10:12 ma partiamo la mattina alle sei. Dopo una lunga attesa sotto una pioggia incessante, raggiungiamo il sito di lancio. L’Ariane è in fondo, a 6 km di distanza: è la prima emozione.
Ora procede tutto velocissimamente: mancano 15 minuti al lancio e le nuvole pare si facciano da parte per lasciare passare l’Ariane, si spostano per farcelo vedere meglio. Ed ecco che parte in un cielo assolutamente azzurro, in un silenzio surreale. Difficile trattenere le lacrime.
Siamo collegati al centro di controllo e sentiamo che sta andando tutto nel modo migliore. Dopo 29 minuti, Planck è libero nello spazio!
Questo è un momento critico perché il satellite deve orientarsi automaticamente verso il Sole e acquisire energia attraverso i pannelli solari. Dopo 10 minuti, esattamente come previsto, comunica con la Terra. Tutto perfetto!
È notte e sembra tutto finito ma siamo ancora sotto shock.
In realtà per noi il vero lavoro è appena iniziato. Tra pochi giorni inizia la vera avventura scientifica che ci porterà a scoprire come è fatto l’Universo, un fantastico, misterioso ma arzillo vecchietto di ben 14 miliardi di anni.
Ma ci pensate? Siamo nella foresta amazzonica, e lì in mezzo a questa natura straordinaria c’è uno degli oggetti più tecnologici che l’uomo (e la donna) abbiano mai costruito. Sembra un controsenso ma non lo è perchè la tecnologia e l’innovazione possono convivere e aiutarsi a vicenda, soprattutto quella dello Spazio.

Die (integrated circuit)
A die in the context of integrated circuits is a small block of semiconducting material, on which a given functional circuit is fabricated. Typically, integrated circuits are produced in large batches on a single wafer of electronic-grade silicon (EGS) or other semiconductor (such as GaAs) through processes such as photolithography. The wafer is cut (“diced”) into many pieces, each containing one copy of the circuit. Each of these pieces is called a die.
There are three commonly used plural forms: dice, dies, and die.

Was Ist...
by: CurseWas ist?
Ich geb euch Shots von ner Tüte bis ihr kotzt in ne Tüte. Trotz aller Güte
vergeud' ich an 'ner Fotz keine Mühe. Brauch ne neue Mühle, am Fiesta
blättert der Lack ab, das fuckt ab, was nützt mir dann der Fakt dass ich
viel Props hab? Sag mir das mal, nix los ohne Zaster, ich leb bloss von Reis
mit Salz und heissem Wasser. Mein Weissmuster topt allein das ganze Jive
Rooster; lass Frust ab und diss euch alle wenn ich Lust hab. Bewusst dass
das Ding hier garantiert keine Single ist, scheiss ich drauf und sag euch
allen jetzt konkret wie lang mein Pimmel ist. Haha, hättest gerne, wie deine
Perle, und du meine Fresse verschlossen unter der Erde. Ja gerne, wir machen
nen Deal, mann: Du gibst mir alles was du hast, und ich zahl keinen Pfennig
drauf als wärst du Fielmann. Mein Ziel kann keiner verwischen, wie gut zu
wissen das du inzwischen am Weinen bist, und ich zeig euch wirklich nur 'n
bisschen...
Was ist? Alle wollen's wissen, wollen wissen was ist.
Was ist? Denk mal drüber nach bis du's gerafft kriegst!
Geht's mir beschissen können sich alle verpissen, und Ischen wissen: ich
glaub euch nicht eine Silbe wie Atheisten. Ab in die kitchen, geh Salat
fixen, Saft mixen...ey, Du willst doch nachher auf meine Kosten Bakis
sippen!? In Bars sitzen und Posen, ich trink Aldi Pils aus Dosen, neben Ford
Fiesta Schlüsseln nichts als Filz in meinen Hosen. Doch das ändert sich, in
2000 kennt man mich, als Mensch mit dem zweiten Gesicht scheiss ich im Benz
auf dich. Was ist!? Das Mädel neben mir ist süss wie Cassis, dreh den Spiess
um und schlag dein Schweinefleisch direkt vom Schaschlik! Nimm abschied von
Nasen die durch Cameos charten, ständig durch Videos latschen und mit
zuvielen Jungs tratschen, Händeschütteln und labern um Connections zu haben,
ich sag bestenfalls guten Abend, ihr Fotzen könnt mich mal gerne haben! Der
Gradwanderer, lyrics grafischer als Mandala, Kamera auf mich weil ich
Sprache spit wie kein anderer. Und jede Ische strippt aus allen scheiss
Sachen, denn ich rap so überzeugend ich kann soger Schwarzen alles weiss
machen. Was ist!?
Was ist? Alle wollen's wissen, wollen wissen was ist.
Was ist? Denk mal drüber nach bis du's gerafft kriegst!
Ich koppel wieder Hits aus, 'ne Doppelrunde weil ich mitsauf, n Bit kauf,
benebelt wie Tau, mein Corona kippt aus. Cerveza spritzt raus, alles bis auf
die Limone, für tausend Klone bin ich Blaupause sowie Schablone. Ey yo
yalla, lan, ich stürm Mallorca mit nem Ballermann, zieh sechs Ischen zum
knallen ran, der Sekt spritzt und wir lallen dann zu Chansons auf Chandons,
noch eingepackt wie Bon Bons,n doch dann kommt's, und Ischen lassen hüllen
fallen wie Concons. Balance zwischen Pflichten und Fristen und schwer zu
kippen, bleib frisch inmitten von Parasiten, Blutegeln und Biterbissen. Ist
n bisschen hart für mich, manchmal verzag ich, doch was ich allein nicht
hinkriegt regelt Allah für mich. Was ist?
Was ist? Alle wollen's wissen, wollen wissen was ist.
