    Whisper (cartridge family)

    The Whisper family of firearm cartridges is a group of wildcat cartridges developed in the early 1990s by J.D. Jones of SSK Industries. The Whisper Family was developed as a line of accurate, multi-purpose cartridges using relatively heavy rifle bullets for a given caliber in subsonic loads. The intention was to create an extremely accurate cartridge family for military, police, competition and specialized hunting markets that could also be easily sound suppressed.

    While all cartridges in the Whisper family must be capable of accuracy using subsonic loads, most of the smaller caliber cartridges of the family (.308" and under) are also capable of being loaded to supersonic velocities using relatively lightweight bullets for their caliber, increasing their utility.

    Subsonic cartridges

    A subsonic cartridge is designed to fire its bullets at velocities slower than the speed of sound (1128 ft/s at 70 °F) to avoid the sonic crack caused by the bullet breaking the sound barrier. This allows the cartridge to be sound suppressed relatively easily. Additionally, in some cases, subsonic loads are often intended to avoid the turbulent transonic zone entirely, maximizing potential accuracy.

    Acid (disambiguation)

    An acid is any chemical compound that, when dissolved in water, gives a solution with a pH less than 7.0.

  • Acid (computer virus)

    Acid is a computer virus which infects .COM and .EXE files including command.com. Each time an infected file is executed, Acid infects all of the .EXE files in the current directory. Later, if an infected file is executed, it infects the .COM files in the current directory. Programs infected with Acid will have had the first 792 bytes of the host program overwritten with Acid's own code. There will be no file length increase unless the original host program was smaller than 792 bytes, in which case it will become 792 bytes in length. The program's date and time in the DOS disk directory listing will not be altered.

    The following text strings are found in infected files:

  • "*.EXE *.COM .."
  • "Program too big to fit in memory"
  • "Acid Virus"
  • "Legalize ACiD and Pot"
  • "By: Copyfright Corp-$MZU"

  • Acid (hip-hop)

    Acid (often written ACID; Burmese: အက်စစ်, Burmese pronunciation: [ʔɛʔ sɪʔ]) is a Burmese hip hop group often credited with releasing Burma's first hip hop album, Beginning, in 2000. Two of the group's founders were later imprisoned for the group's allegedly pro-democracy lyrics.

    Beginning

    Acid was founded by Zayar Thaw, Annaga, Hein Zaw and Yan Yan Chan. In 2000, Acid released Burma's first hip-hop album, Beginning. Despite predictions of failure by many in the Burmese music industry, Beginning remained in the number one position of the Burmese charts for more than two months. A Democratic Voice of Burma reporter described the group's music as blending a "combative, angry style with indigenous poeticism".

    The band's repertoire has been said to contain many "thinly veiled attacks" on Burma's military government, the State Peace and Development Council.The Independent stated that while the band "focused on the mundane, their lyrics inevitably touched on the hardships of life in Burma, drawing them into dangerous territory."

    Only A Whisper

    You can paint our names on the water tower
    For half the county to see
    You can spend your money on billboard signs, honey
    If you feel the need
    I'll be impressed, but I like it best
    When your love for me is
    Only a whisper
    Only a whisper
    You can proclaim love from the top of a truck
    In the middle of downtown
    A 50,000 watt radio spot
    Will get the word around
    I'll be flattered, but the truth of the matter is
    The most romantic sound is
    Only a whisper
    Only a whisper
    You feel so good about it, you're bout to bust to shout it
    Want everyone in the world to know
    I like it when it's private
    I like it slow and quiet
    Baby, bring it to me sweet at home
    I like it most when we're up close
    And you let all that passion go
    With only a whisper
    Only a whisper
    You feel so good about it, you're bout to bust to shout it
    Want everyone in the world to know
    I like it when it's private
    I like it slow and quiet
    Baby, bring it to me sweet at home
    I like it most when we're up close
    And you let all that passion go
    With only a whisper
    Only a whisper
    Only a whisper, yeah, only a whisper
    Only a whisper, only a whisper
    Only a whisper, only a whisper
