Get the Persephone mug.A military acronym. Short for PERsonal SECurity. Used in conjuction with Operational Security (OPSEC) to protect the flow of information to undesirable or non-essential parties.
PERSEC'd info is often personal information about a person/soldier/civilian that, if leaked or passed on to the wrong party, could result in either harm, defamation, or potentially even death to said person. As such, the principles of both OPSEC and PERSEC are taught to pretty much every recruit early on in-training as basic counter-intelligence.

Get the peesexual mug.In traffic control, the brief interval when a traffic light shows a red (for "stop") in all directions.
Until the 1970s, most traffic lights would switch red-to-green at the same instant that the other direction went yellow-to-red. Because accidents would sometimes occur at that transition, New York City innovated a phase, usually about three to five seconds, of all-red lights, so the intersection would be completely clear before actuating the green ("go") signal. The "New York pause" has become widespread across the U.S.
