What is an Acronym? " Acronyms , initialisms , and alphabetisms are abbreviations that are formed using the initial components in a phrase or name. These components may be individual letters (as in CEO ) or parts of words (as in Benelux or Delmarva). There is no universal agreement on the precise definition of the various terms (see Nomenclature), nor on written usage." - Wikipedia

Original Preface. The Catholic Encyclopedia, as its name implies, proposes to give its readers full and authoritative information on the entire cycle of Catholic interests, action and doctrine . What the Church teaches and has taught; what she has done and is still doing for the highest welfare of mankind ; her methods, past and present; her struggles, her triumphs, and the achievements of her members, not only for her own immediate benefit, but for the broadening and deepening of all true science , literature and art — all come within the scope of the Catholic Encyclopedia. It differs from the general encyclopedia in omitting facts and information which have no relation to the Church . On the other hand, it is not exclusively a church encyclopedia, nor is it limited to the ecclesiastical sciences and the doings of churchmen . It records all that Catholics have done, not only in behalf of charity and morals , but also for the intellectual and artistic development of mankind .

Today's Featured Article - Mathematics Mathematics (from Greek άθημα máthēma , “knowledge, study, learning”) is the systematic torture of students disguised as the study of quantity, structure, space , and change . Mathematicians seek out patterns and formulate new conjectures , trying to make sense of the universe by examining these abstract concepts, determining common traits, and then experimenting to see if this advanced knowledge will help them get women into bed. These conjectures are often faulty, and this subsequent failure is referred to as mathematical proof .
If you can read this, you are using our brand new server! It took me about 3 days to transfer everything over and now I can cancel the old account. The specifications are about the same, but now we also have mirror RAID and a slightly faster processor as well as a newer OS and version of Plesk. The best thing is that it is $60/month instead of $200/month!
