Gya and Ga, are symbols for units of time, specifically gigayears ago and gigaannum (or giga-annum), respectively. They represent 109 (1,000,000,000) years. Ga is the base unit, and Gya is relative to the present. The G in both symbols (but not the g in giga-, unabbreviated) is conventionally capitalized. Both symbols are pronounced by sounding out their letters, g-a and g-y-a, or by giving their unabbreviated forms. The terms are often used in geology, paleontology, geophysics, and astronomy disciplines including celestial mechanics.
Another unit identical to Gya is bya (for "billion years ago"), which may be in more widespread use. But some scientists prefer Gya because it uses the SI prefix multipliers giga- and thus avoids confusion over whether the short-scale (American and increasingly internationally standardized) billion, of 109 (1,000,000,000), or long-scale (former British, now mostly western continental European) billion, of 1012 (1,000,000,000,000) is meant, as well as avoiding preference for one of the two definitions of billion over the other.
Francis Albert "Frank" Sinatra (/sᵻˈnɑːtrə/; December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, producer, and director, who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. Sinatra's music has been considered timeless by many. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, to Italian immigrants, he began his musical career in the swing era with Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. He found success as a solo artist after being signed by Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers". He released his first album, The Voice of Frank Sinatra, in 1946. Sinatra's professional career had stalled by the early 1950s, and he turned to Las Vegas, where he became one of its best known performers as part of the Rat Pack. His career was reborn in 1953 with the success of From Here to Eternity and his subsequent Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He signed with Capitol Records and released several critically lauded albums, including In the Wee Small Hours (1955), Songs for Swingin' Lovers! (1956), Come Fly with Me (1958), Only the Lonely (1958) and Nice 'n' Easy (1960).
