Issa or ISSA may refer to:
Issa (Russian: Исса) is the name of several inhabited localities in Russia.
Vis is a town on the eponymous island in the Adriatic Sea in southern Croatia. It has a population of 1,934 residents (as of 2011). The town is also the seat of the eponymous Vis municipality, one of the two municipalities on the island (the other one being Komiža) which both administratively belong to the Split-Dalmatia County.
Vis was established in the 4th century BC as the Greek polis of Issa, a colony of Syracuse, Sicily (which in turn was a colony of Corinth). Dionysius the Elder, the contemporary tyrant of Syracuse, founded the colony in order to control shipping in the Adriatic Sea. Ancient Issa developed as the urban and economic center of the Dalmatian coasts, and also served as a military base. The city established several colonies, such as Aspálathos, modern-day Split (which in modern times is the largest city in Dalmatia), and others such as Epidauros (Stobreč), and Tragurion (Trogir). Issa functioned as an independent polis until the 1st century BCE, when it was conquered by the Roman Empire. After the Roman conquest Issa lost its significance until the late Middle Ages when it was mentioned in several historical sources.
Shake! is an album by the blues-rock group the Siegel–Schwall Band. Their third album, it was released in 1968 by Vanguard Records as a vinyl LP. It was later re-released as a CD, also on the Vanguard label.
Shake! was the group's last album to feature Jack Dawson on bass guitar and Russ Chadwick on drums.
On Allmusic, Cub Koda wrote, "Shake! was probably the group's second best album and certainly the one that came the closest to representing their live act.... Lots of fun and fireworks on this one, the sound of a band at the top of their game."
Shake is the first solo album released by John Schlitt, lead singer of the Christian rock band Petra. It was released in the Spring of 1995.
A shake is an informal unit of time equal to 10 nanoseconds, or 10−8seconds. It has applications in nuclear physics, helping to conveniently express the timing of various events in a nuclear explosion. The typical time required for one step in the chain reaction (i.e. the typical time for each neutron to cause a fission event which releases more neutrons) is of order 1 shake, and the chain reaction is typically complete by 50 to 100 shakes.
This is also applicable to circuits. Since signal progression in IC chips is very rapid, on the order of nanoseconds, a shake is good measure of how quickly a signal can progress through an IC.
Like many nuclear units, it is derived from Top Secret operations of the Manhattan Project during World War II. The word comes from the expression "two shakes of a lamb's tail," which indicates a very short time interval. For nuclear-bomb designers, 10 nanoseconds was a convenient specific interval to connect to this term.
It has been discussed at length that the oldest documented usage of the phrase "two shakes of a lamb's tail" can be found within the compiled works of Richard Harris Barham called The Ingoldsby Legends.

[Verse 1]
Everybody keeps on gossipin
Chitter chatter shit what the topic is
Throats all dry need some losengiz
Can't breath in your hate need some oxygen
Frown face fallen in, needs some collagen
Kinda hard to trust like a congressman
Startin shit begins like Washington
Got me drinkin cosmopolitans
Quit and put feet up on the ottoman
Wise and thinkin like I'm Soloman
Messages keeps on mixin in
3 different stories Neapolitan, killin like hollow tip, play a sad song
Where the violin
Tell me how u been, we go round the bend
Knownin, that all hate comes from within

[Verse 2]
Everybody's talkin' but not a lot of action
Have you ever heard about the law of attraction
I practice, and spin off my axis, skipped all the classes
But I stop the traffic while laughin
When your comparatively speakin
Your message it gets weakend
Hating spreadin on weekend
It's lame and freaking reakin
Not teaching, just screamin
Now shut your mouth and see that
It's not destruction that your seekin
Treat them, how you wanna be treated
And shine just like a sequin
Get deep in
Love leaking
Keep dreamin
No schemin
Spit love like it's semem

[Pre Hook]
See I'm tryna ask why
Were talkin absurd cause that shit don't fly
Cause I ain't no bird and you ain't gon try
That racist, that fakeness, I can't take it, impatient
Don't wait on me, can't push me, I'm weightless
Can't break this, we're livin life
Not living lies, we sit and smile
You project on me and I'm not surprised
Don't try to judge me cuz I aint on trial
Could be effortless
Forever bliss, happiness, plus craftiness
I'm more than half of this
It ain't a trick and I tell you what the secret is
