What does Urim mean?

My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.

Urim is another version for lights, the usual version is Orot אורות fron sing. or אור. There are only two expressions I can think of when urim is used:
Chag Urim חג אורים, and 'urim vetumim אורים ותומים' anybody knows what it means? - check out Vayikra chapter 8 passage 8 .

Happy holidays everybody ! (Except for the muslims  :P)
