Geological Tephra is the general term now used by volcanologists for airborne volcanic ejecta of any size. Historically, however, various terms have been used to describe ejecta of different sizes. Fragments larger than about 2.5 inches are called blocks if they were ejected in a solid state and volcanic bombs if ejected in semi-solid, or plastic, condition. (Tilling, Heliker, and Wright, 1987)* Fragments of lava or rock larger than 64 millimeters in size that are blasted into the air by volcanic explosions. (Miller, 1989)* See: Tephra. (references)
Geology Tephra greater than 64 millimeters in diameter. (references)
Geophysics A solid rock fragment greater than 64 mm in diameter ejected from a volcano during an explosive eruption. Blocks commonly consist of solidified pieces of old lava flows that were part of a volcano's cone. (references)

Statistics Matching, also known as pairing (with two samples) and blocking (with multiple samples) involves matching up individuals in the samples so as to minimize their dissimilarity except in the factor (s) under study. For example, in pre-test/post-test studies, each subject is paired (matched) with himself, so that the difference between the pre-test and post-test responses can be attributed to the change caused by taking the test, and not to differences between the individuals taking the test. A study involving animals might be blocked by matching up animals from the same litter or from the same cage. The goal is to minimize the variation within the pairs or blocks while maximizing the variation between them. This will minimize variation between subjects that is not attributable to the factors under study by attributing it to the blocking factor. The matched items in a pair or in a block are related by their membership in that pair or block. Other methods for controlling for variation between subjects for variables that are not of direct interest are stratification and the use of covariates. Source: European Union. (references)

16 Blocks 16 Blocks is a 2006 film directed by Richard Donner and based on the story of an aging, bitter NYPD police officer (Bruce Willis) who is asked to escort a happy-go-lucky criminal witness (Mos Def) through sixteen blocks of Lower Manhattan from the police station to a courthouse. No one seems to want the pair to reach their destination, and they are faced with difficult situations at every turn as they make their way through the Big Apple. The film is currently in production and much of the movie is being filmed on location in New York City (though in some scenes Toronto fills in for the city due to tax advantages and budget constraints).

Blocks world The blocks world is one of the most famous planning domains in artificial intelligence. Imagine a set of cubes (blocks) sitting on a table. The goal is to build one or more vertical stacks of blocks. The catch is that only one block may be moved at a time: it may be either placed on the table or placed atop another block. Because of this, any blocks that are, at a given time, underneath another block, cannot be moved. The simplicity of this toy world lends itself readily to symbolic or classical A.I. approaches, in which the world is modelled as a set of abstract symbols which may be reasoned about. (references)
Gauge blocks Gauge blocks, (also known as gage blocks, Johansson gauges, or slip gauges) are precision ground and lapped measuring standards. They are used as references for the setting of measuring equipment such as micrometers, sine bars, dial indicators (when used in an inspection role). (references)

Cut Blocks with a Razor Literature 1: (To). To do something astounding by insignificant means; to do something more eccentric than inexpedient. According to Dean Swift, to "make pincushions of sunbeams." The tale is that Accius, or Attus Navius, a Roman augur, opposed the king Tarquin the Elder, who wished to double the number of senators. Tarquin, to throw ridicule on the angur, sneered at his pretensions of augury, and asked him if he could do what was then in his thoughts. "Undoubtedly," replied Navius; and Tarquin with a laugh, said, "Why, I was thinking whether I could cut through this whetstone with a razor." "Cut boldly," cried Navius, and the whetstone was cleft in two. This story forms the subject of one of Bon Gaultier's ballads, and Goldsmith refers to it in his Retaliation:
2: "In short, `twas his [Burke's] fate, unemployed or in place, sir,
3: To eat mutton cold, and cut blocks with a razor" Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
