'''Srintil''':  A type of heavily fermented, air cured Indonesian tobacco grown in the Java region in the Temangung valley which grows at the top of a plant and by abnormality produces an extreme amount of resin, making it highly potent.  Fermentation details are thought to be similar to perique, and in 1983 approximately 3 tons a year of Srintil were grown worldwide.  Sometimes extracted in an aqueous solution for use as a flavoring agent.

'''Stinger''':  Sometimes referred to as a "metal filter", "cleaner", or "condenser", a stinger is a metal protrusion containing the last portion of the airway in many pipes, primarily of the mid-20th century.  A stinger extends from the tenon on a stem into the shank of the pipe, generally in turn drilled with a deeper mortise to allow space.  Stingers were used commonly in non-filtered pipes for the majority of the twentieth century, but are no longer seen.
