Host

Host (masculine) and hostess (feminine) most often refer to a person responsible for guests at an event or providing hospitality during it, or to an event's presenter or master or mistress of ceremonies. Host or hosts may also refer to:

  • Host (biology), an organism harboring another organism or organisms on or in itself
  • the sacramental bread (host or hostia) used in Christian liturgy
  • Host (psychology), "personality" as emphasized in treating dissociative identity disorder
  • Host (radio), the presenter or announcer on a radio show

    • Hosts file, a computer file to be used to store information on where to find an internet host on a computer network
    • host (Unix), a command-line Unix command
    • Internet hosting service, a service that runs Internet servers allowing organizations and individuals to serve content to the Internet
    • Virtual host, allowing several DNS names to share the same IP address
  • Werewolf: The Forsaken

    Werewolf: The Forsaken is a role-playing game set in the new World of Darkness created by White Wolf Game Studio. It is the successor to Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the "game of savage horror" from the old World of Darkness line of games, but has moved to a more personal sort of horror, reflecting the "dark mystery" theme of the new World of Darkness.

    Characters

    Players portray the Forsaken, werewolves, known as Uratha, who are sworn to a duty to maintain a balance and prevent ingress between the spirit worlds and the material world. Any human who may unknowingly possess a werewolf heritage could undergo a First Change at some time in their life, though what triggers the change is unknown. It is only known that it almost never happens before puberty or after the age of 60. Following this Change, each character develops an Auspice, defined by what phase the moon was at during their First Change, and most join a Tribe or become a tribe-less werewolf known as a Ghost Wolf. Unlike traditional fictional werewolves, Uratha may change at any time into various forms between man and wolf, though they do find this easier when the phase of the moon matches their Auspice.

    Hosts (novel)

    Hosts is the fifth volume in a series of Repairman Jack books written by American author F. Paul Wilson. The book was first published by Gauntlet Press in a signed limited first edition (April 2001) then later as a trade hardcover from Forge (November 2001) and a mass market paperback from Forge (September 2001).

    Bathroom Cipher

    by: Hazadus

    [various talking and intros]
    [I.G. Off]
    It's the top dog and you just the man next to the man like Christ
    Swappin' advice over a game a-dice I'll live a high life
    Higher than the highest mountain, deeper than any sea
    Wreckin' careers until the day I D-I-E like B.I.G.
    Got what you be wantin', styles for analyzin' and beats that's thumpin
    Ill tracks keep bodies jumpin' like loaded Macs
    Knowledge the facts, never speed or never get too relaxed
    If I was you, I play the back like the wing on a coupe
    My technique is invincible when I'm dancin' over the right loop
    And I don't care what you doin', just stack lucci like Susan
    I hate losin', that's why I push myself to keep improvin'
    My words make me immortal, I get respect like a corporal
    Runnin' through town with rebels
    trapped in a chess game with the devil
    I only move with the Highest, I'm hazardous like L.A. riots
    And I'm-a keep spreadin' until I got a body count like a virus
    [J-Treds]
    Yo, yo, yo..check... yo that's wha-...
    Yo when J's in the place, competition is like "You're the man"
    Cuz when I bust I blow the spot like an insurance scam
    Leavin' in ashes when I blaze it, I'm not to be played with
    Rated R son, PG emcees don't really say shit
    So I curse 'em with my version of dope
    Burnin' their hopes of masterin' this
    they're forever learnin' the ropes
    While I proceed in full swing, doin' it for self
    Weaker emcees need help, so they gotta pull strings
    But can't match the force of this one man, if they understand
    They won't test, I got a dark side like an uneven sun tan
    They don't wanna see it, it's too ill, and it's far from beau-ti-ful
    They catch a glimpse, it's a view to a kill
    Cuz no one lives to talk about it when I'm on the set
    That's why my comp is pet cuz it's a promise not a threat
    I'm dead honest, if you heart is tellin' your state
    You betta listen to your concious sayin' "Jet..."
    cuz I jam like a tech
    What, what, What's up Thirst...
    [Thirstin Howl III]
    Thirstin Hooowlll..ha...Thirstin Hoowwwlll...still in there
    Yo, what...
    I put rappers in danger for darin' rescues
    I'm to be avoided is a daily schedule
    At all costses, Rap Olympics
    I'll get the gold before you see the torch lit
    Take crowns even if they don't fit
    Make ciphers take wrong turns
    Battle 80 niggaz and have enough rhymes to go first!
    Verbally sparrin' you hit as hard as womens boxin'
    You could lose or you could lose, those are your options
    My freestyle is straighter than a wheel alignment
    With rack opinion steering, studying the nervous systems
    Pressure points and body piercings!
    My freestyle is stronger than all alcoholic beverages
    After second sips to the point to where you forget where you live!
    My freestyle is dumber than Jim Carrey and his co-star
    Even if you was En Vogue's PANTIES you couldn't hold on
    Your freestyle, a non-sinner's son who twiddle thumbs
    From the sight of my rib cage you could tell I kill for crumbs!
    My freestyle, clearer than a ocean front wit' seagulls
    My flow will feel like I'm walkin' the sands
    with a corn pipe and a pea coat!
    Carryin' a slow burnin' lantern
    These fingers here could pick pocket a grass skirt
    Your freestyle in a test of strength was the perfect weight
    So it's logical we obey the 3-knockdown rule
    Whether you married to the mob or just a step-son
    I make true to the game emcees rhyme under lie detectors!
    [Hazadus]
    What? Check check...now...
    My freestyle is something that you have read about in books
    When I talk to takin' jooks or these brothers wanna take looks
    I...throw left hooks just like Tyson, nice on the mic devices
    Slicin' and dicin' for any pricin'
    [I.G. Off]
    Yo, yo well I never get off the stage without 50 pats on the back
    About 50 more pounds and 'bout 60 more "Yo, you ripped thats"
    We terrify, petrify, any emcee who dare to try
    I turn on some Canibus shit, whoever wanna die, I'll battle you...
    [Kwest]
    Always talkin' about they wanna battle us
    You're there relyin', they about to get they whole body set on fire
    I perspire from the sweat, you ain't even seen nothin' yet
    Me and I.G. Off, I.G. Off on the set, Kwest the verbal vet
    [I.G. Off]
    I wait for niggaz to talk about they multi-platinum plaque
    So I could smack 'em in they fuckin' mouth with they plaque
    I break your back, smack these corny ass emcees silly
    I grab 'em by they legs break they feet off like a Philly
