Ford Collection sarcophagi
The Ford Collection sarcophagi are a collection of ancient anthropoid Phoenician sarcophagi, considered a highlight of the National Museum of Beirut. They are made from white marble.

They were discovered in 1901 in shaft tombs at Ain al-Hilweh, southeast of Sidon, during the excavations of the American School in Jerusalem. The finds were first published in full in 1919 by Charles Cutler Torrey.

The land was owned by the American Presbyterian Mission School, who took possession of the sarcophagi and donated it to the National Museum of Beirut in 1930. The collection was then named the Ford Collection in honor of George Alfred Ford, the previous director of the Mission School who had died two years before in 1928.

It is still today the largest collection of this type of sarcophagi in the world.

Sarcophagus
A sarcophagus (pl.: sarcophagi or sarcophaguses) is a coffin, most commonly carved in stone, and usually displayed above ground, though it may also be buried. The word sarcophagus comes from the Greek σάρξ sarx meaning "flesh", and φαγεῖν phagein meaning "to eat"; hence sarcophagus means "flesh-eating", from the phrase lithos sarkophagos (λίθος σαρκοφάγος), "flesh-eating stone". The word also came to refer to a particular kind of limestone that was thought to rapidly facilitate the decomposition of the flesh of corpses contained within it due to the chemical properties of the limestone itself.

This action makes the decision clear to all players, as well as spectators and other officials in a manner that is language-neutral. The colour or shape of the card used by the official indicates the type or seriousness of the offence and the level of punishment that is to be applied. Yellow and red cards are the most common, typically indicating, respectively, cautions and dismissals.

Format (Common Lisp)
Format is a function in Common Lisp that can produce formatted text using a format string similar to the print format string. It provides more functionality than print, allowing the user to output numbers in various formats (including, for instance: hex, binary, octal, roman numerals, and English), apply certain format specifiers only under certain conditions, iterate over data structures, output data tabularly, and even recurse, calling format internally to handle data structures that include their own preferred formatting strings. This functionally originates in MIT's Lisp Machine Lisp, where it was based on Multics.

Lisp Machine Lisp
Lisp Machine Lisp is a programming language, a dialect of the language Lisp. A direct descendant of Maclisp, it was initially developed in the mid to late 1970s as the system programming language for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lisp machines. Lisp Machine Lisp was also the Lisp dialect with the most influence on the design of Common Lisp.

Lisp Machine Lisp branched into three dialects. Symbolics named their variant ZetaLisp. Lisp Machines, Inc. and later Texas Instruments (with the TI Explorer) would share a common code base, but their dialect of Lisp Machine Lisp would differ from the version maintained at the MIT AI Lab by Richard Stallman and others.
