  Persistence of Time - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Persistence of Time is the fifth studio album by the thrash metal band Anthrax.
The band and Mark Dodson produced the album, which was released as a double album (along with Among the Living) in Germany in 2000.
Persistence of Time stands out among other Anthrax albums due to its unified lyrical focus on the need for tolerance and peace.

 NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Persistence of Time
The time of origin is plain enough: the time of the time traveler and the time traveler’s surrounding world coincide at the beginning of the journey.
Newton argued that space, time and motion were absolute, i.e., that the entire universe was a single, uniform inertial frame and that time passed equably throughout it according to an eternally fixed, immutable and inexorable rate, without relation to anything external.
In a brief period of her personal time she would witness an immensely long time span in the universe beyond the fl hole horizon; her spacetime region would be so far removed from the external time of the surrounding cosmos that she conceivably could witness thousands, millions, or billions of years elapse.

 Persistence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Persistence allows, for example, a program to be restarted and reloaded with the data structures from a previous invocation of the program.
When first introduced, the idea was that persistence should be an intrinsic property of the data, in contrast with the traditional approach where data is read and written to disk using imperative verbs in a programming language.
In mathematics, the additive or multiplicative persistence of a number is how often one has to replace that number with the sum or product of its digits until one arrives at a single digit.

Prospective students and their families may view year to year persistence for first-year students (either at the same institution or at any institution) as a measure of the likelihood that they will be able to complete college in a timely and successful manner.
Statewide persistence rates for first-year students (the percentage of first year students who are enrolled somewhere in a state supported institution one year later) range from a high of seventy-one percent to a low of forty-three percent for the community colleges.
Persistence rates for first year students for the state community colleges ranges from a high of seventy-two percent to a low of twenty-nine percent.

 Time
Other issues concerning the topology of time include (i) whether time is branching or non-branching, (ii) whether time is open or closed, (iii) whether there can be two or more disconnected time streams, (iv) whether time has an intrinsic direction, and (v) whether time is dense or continuous or neither.
The question of whether there could be time without change has been debated by philosophers since the days of Plato and Aristotle, and has traditionally been thought to be closely tied to the question of whether time exists independently of the events that occur in time.

Persistence of Time vei Anthraxia yhä tummempiin ja monimuotoisempiin ulottuvuuksiin sekä lyyrikoiden että sävellyksien osalta.
Ehdottomasti huomion arvoista on myös Persistence of Timen tuotanto, joka tukee kaikkia instrumentteja aidosti jykevällä tavalla, soundien ollessa kaikin puolin Anthraxin tuotannon parhaasta päästä ja instrumentaalisen annin päästessä näin yhä paremmin oikeuksiinsa.
Persistence of Timella edellistä albumia vaivanneet ongelmat pituudessa ja joissakin yksityiskohdissa eivät vaivaa enää juuri ollenkaan, vaan albumi onnistuu olemaan lähes tunnin kestossaan mielenkiintoista kuultavaa ja samalla ehdottoman onnistunut suunnanmuutos Anthraxilta, jota ei voi syyttää ainakaan paikallaan polkemisesta.

 Four-Dimensionalism: An Ontology of Persistence and Time
Objects persist through time by perduring: the change of an object consists in the fact that it has temporal parts that have different properties.
They persist through time by enduring: a changing object is wholly present at different times, and acquires some new property, which it then has in a special way, related to that particular moment in time.
In Newtonian spacetime, comparisons of positions at different times pose no problem, for there places endure: there is a natural relation of identity of points across time.

 Anthrax : Persistence of Time - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Persistence of Time rivals Among the Living as Anthrax's best album and might even be a clear-cut favorite if some of the songs had been trimmed a bit.
This is the album for those who want Anthrax's serious side without any of the pop culture references and tributes; others might miss those elements, particularly since there has always been a sort of clumsiness to some of the more intellectual lyrics.
However, Persistence of Time is their most lyrically consistent album, and the music simply rages.

This will be the first leap second in seven years, and its arrival will be closely watched by physicists and astronomers enmeshed in a prolonged debate over the future of time in a world increasingly dominated by technology.
Others, however, argue that it would be expensive to adjust satellites, telescopes and other astronomical systems that are hard-wired for the leap second, and besides, people want their watches to be in sync with the heavens.

I feel that "Persistence of Time" is the slightly better of the two aforementioned Anthrax albums, thanks mainly to a slightly better flow in the music and less shakiness in Joey Belladonna's vocals.
Persistence of Time is without a doubt my favourite Anthrax album.
There is comic value in "Got the Time" (a cover of the Joe Jackson tune), and a relief from the metal onslaught in the instrumental "Intro to Reality".

Scn holds that persistence in time is caused by alter-is of original manifestation.
An original manifestation can be made to persist in the TEMPORAL state via the addition of significance, which is the first lie, and then by denial of desirability which is the second lie, then by by question asking, which is the third lie.
Time is introduced by the added significance becuase its a CHANGE from the original manifestation.

Persistence of Time will definatly stand the test of time, and I think no band could have picked a better title for such a work of Art as this.
Anthrax’s 1990 thrash masterpiece Persistence of Time begins with the sound of a ticking clock, perhaps signalling that the end of the genre’s period of growth and dominance was near.
Persistence of Time is easily the pinnacle of the band’s career.

Any time series with a constant time increment (e.g., day, month, year) is a candidate for use in the course.
The spectrum of a time series is the distribution of variance of the series as a function of frequency.
A high correlation coefficient between two time series indicates that positive departures from the mean at time t in one series tend to be associated with positive departures from the mean at time t in the other series.

My time, your time is limited (walls), but time itself is unlimited (no ceiling).

The album starts off with a clock ticking which is the song Time and around 40 secs the guitars kick in and the song is awesome.
This song also has the song Got The Time originally by Joe Jackson but the Anthrax version I like better and theres also a video for Got The Time.
Another good song on this album is One Man Stands which comes right after the song H8 Red and it has a cool intro and the rest of the song is good also same with the song H8 Red.

I used to talk with about the album with alot of people back then and ask what they thought if it, and most of them either said it sucked, or it wasnt up to par with the previous 2 releases before it.
I think the problem with Anthrax is that "Amoung the Living" was such a Metal Masterpiece, that I BELIEVE that they were never able to top that effort, unlike other Thrash Metal artist of the 80's whos albums were getting better, or at least staying at the same level as previous releases.
I cant recommend "Amoung the Living" enough, but as for other Anthrax releases of the time, only "Spreading The Disease" would rate higher then 3 stars, and of course Amoung the Living is a solid 5.
