Aspect is a term used across several religions and in theology to describe a particular manifestation or conception of a deity or other divine being. Depending the religion, these might to disjoint or overlapping parts, or methods of perceiving or conceptualizing the deity in a particular context.
In the Bahá'í Faith, this might be conceived as a Manifestation of God.
In Christianity, the concept of the Trinity views God as 3 distinct parts, whereas Sabellianism conceives of one deity manifested in three separate aspects or modes.
In some conceptions of Hinduism, Vishnu is seen as aspect of Brahman.
In Sikhism, there are three distinct aspects: God as deity; God in relation to creation; and God in relation to man.
An aspect of a program is a feature linked to many other parts of the program, but which is not related to the program's primary function. An aspect crosscuts the program's core concerns, therefore violating its separation of concerns that tries to encapsulate unrelated functions. For example, logging code can crosscut many modules, yet the aspect of logging should be separate from the functional concerns of the module it cross-cuts. Isolating such aspects as logging and persistence from business logic is the aim of aspect-oriented software development (AOSD), of which the aspect-oriented programming (AOP) paradigm is the most widely employed.
Aspect-orientation is not limited to programming since it is useful to identify, analyse, trace and modularise concerns (e.g., PREview) through requirements elicitation, specification and design. Aspects can be multi-dimensional by allowing both functional and non-functional behaviour to crosscut any other concerns, instead of just mapping non-functional concerns to functional requirements.
"Blackout" is a promotional single by American rock band Linkin Park. It is the ninth track from their 2010 album, A Thousand Suns. The song was written by the band and produced by co-lead vocalist Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin.
Despite the lack of metal elements, the song does contain significant amounts of screaming (the choruses comprise solely of it), making for one of the more coarse-sounding songs on A Thousand Suns.
On August 18, 2010, Linkin Park posted a "Linkin Park TV" episode showing Chester Bennington doing freestyle vocals over the song. The remix by Renholdër was also used in Underworld: Awakening. A live version of the promotional single was used for the B-side of the single Burning in the Skies by the band in the same album.
The song was debuted for the live, alongside the single "Burning in the Skies", in Australia in late 2010. It featured sampled vocals from Bennington, for the bridge. The song was played in many concerts for the A Thousand Suns World Tour and in some concerts for the promotion of Living Things.
Blackout is the third full-length album by American metal band Affiance.
On June 27, 2014, Affiance announced and released their first single, "Limitless", from their new full-length, Blackout, in the form of a lyric video.
On August 22, another single was released from Blackout, entitled "Monuments Fail".
On September 9, Yahoo! Music released a music video for another new single, "Fire!", on their site. Regarding the music video, guitarist Brett Wondrak commented:
"Our excitement about releasing this music video has been burning us up inside. We really wanted to turn up the heat on what is expected in music videos today. It will light a new fire in the hearts of our fans and definitely will not go up in smoke to people who are just discovering us. We believe it will ignite our careers."
When asked about the album, singer Dennis Tvrdik commented:
"We are still a relatively small band in a very big metal world and we hope to change that with this album. Blackout is a bit darker than our previous albums, and I think it’s time for heavy music with melodies to make its presence known in American metal culture. I am proud to be a part of that."
Blackout is an original novel based on the U.S. television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
It is 1977, the summer of a brutal blackout, the time of the Son of Sam murders, and a period of brutal fiscal disaster for New York. The slayer Nikki Wood fights against the forces of darkness and also tries to protect her son, Robin. Meanwhile Spike and Drusilla arrive in the city hoping to hunt down a slayer, not without the local vampire community soon discovering of their arrival.
