Slaughterhouse

A slaughterhouse, abattoir ⁱ/ˈæbətwɑːr/ or meatworks is a facility where animals are killed for consumption as food. Slaughterhouses that process meat not intended for human consumption are sometimes referred to as knacker's yards or knackeries, used for animals that are not fit for consumption or can no longer work on a farm such as horses that can no longer work.

Slaughtering animals on a large scale poses significant logistical problems, and public health requirements and public aversion in many cultures influences the location of slaughterhouses.

Animal welfare and animal rights groups frequently raise concerns about the methods of transport, preparation, herding, and killing within some slaughterhouses under the example of animal rights activists such as Howard Lyman and Ric O’Barry.

Productivity

Typically 45–50% of the animal can be turned into edible products (meat). About 5-15% is waste, and the remaining 40–45% of the animal is turned into byproducts such as leather, soaps, candles (tallow), and animal glue.

Slaughterhouse (Justified)

"Slaughterhouse" is the thirteenth episode and finale of the third season of Justified. The episode's teleplay was written by executive producer Fred Golan from a story by series creator Graham Yost and was directed by Dean Parisot. It aired on April 10, 2012 and had 2.66 million viewers.

Plot

Events of the season come to a head with many characters heading to Limehouse. This leads to the discovery of money and to Quarles dismemberment. Elsewhere Arlo confesses to killing the Trooper and Arlo's son Raylan Givens has to deal with the possibility he meant to shoot him. Ava's character also darkens. Although she once killed a pimp to save prostitute Ellen May she now treats her with violence due to her fears.

Reception

Scott Tobias of The A.V. Club gave it an A. Seth Amitin of IGN stated it was "a little madcap for an ending" but also that it was "action-packed. It was funny. It was clever. It was even a little moving at the end."Alan Sepinwall liked how the "pieces came back into play" in it, though felt the season as a whole was not as "deep" as the previous.Fred Golan was nominated for an Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Episode in a TV Series for the episode, but lost to Steven Moffat for the Sherlock episode "A Scandal in Belgravia".

Slaughterhouse (Ty Segall Band album)

Slaughterhouse is the debut studio album by American garage rock band Ty Segall Band, released on June 26, 2012 on In the Red Records. It is the only studio album fully credited to Segall's band, who often perform with him live.

Background and recording

Regarding the recording process of Slaughterhouse and the role of the Ty Segall Band, Segall noted, "It’s the whole band. The Ty Segall Band. Like Twins, I played almost all of the parts myself. But yeah, we wanted to record a whole record with the band because it was so rad and so fun. It’s cool because we all wrote and played the songs together, it was totally collaborative. It was super fun! [...] I’d like to make five more records with those guys. Hopefully, throughout the years."

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.
