Edouard de Jans (16 April 1855, in Sint-Andries – 11 July 1919, in Antwerp) was a Flemish portrait and genre painter.

Biography
His father was a farmer and miller. It is said that he first became interested in art when he saw a display in the window of a lithographer's shop. His talent was noticed at school, but came to little until a local aristocrat asked Jans to make drawings of a castle, "Steentien", which he was restoring. He was sufficiently impressed to offer Jans a chance to study at the local art school (the ). In his first year, he received orders for drawings from the Mayor and other notables. This made it possible for him to attend the  in 1869, studying with the Director, Eduard Wallays. By 1873, he was a teacher at the Bogardenschool.

He also studied genre painting with Polydore Beaufaux and Charles Verlat. Although he specialized in portraits, he also did Biblical scenes, history paintings and landscapes.

In 1876, he received a scholarship from the Prix de Rome for his painting "Return of the Prodigal Son", which enabled him to travel throughout Europe, visiting France, Italy, Germany and Austria. When he returned to Antwerp in 1889, he was appointed a Professor at the Academy and held that position until his death.

title: Culture of Telangana

text:
The Culture of Telangana in India has a cultural history of about 5,000 years. The region emerged as the foremost centre of culture in Indian subcontinent during the rule of Kakatiyas, the Qutb Shahis and Asaf Jahi dynasties— (also known as the Nizams of Hyderabad). The rulers patronage and interest for culinary, arts and culture transformed Telangana into a multi-cultural region where two different cultures coexist together, thus making Telangana the representative of the Deccan Plateau and its heritage with Warangal and Hyderabad being its epicenter. Hyderabadi cuisine and Kakatiya architecture both from Telangana, are on the list of UNESCO creative city of gastronomy and UNESCO World Heritage Site. The regions major cultural events celebrated are "Kakatiya Festival" and Deccan Festival along with religious festivals Bonalu, Bathukamma, Dasara, Ugadi, Sankranthi, Milad un Nabi and Ramadan.

Telangana State has long been a meeting place for diverse languages and cultures. It is known as "South of North and North of South". It is also known for its Ganga-Jamuna Tehzeeb and the capital Hyderabad is an epicenter of oriental culture making it first Heritage city of India.

Languages of Telangana
About 76% of the population of Telangana speak Telugu, 12% speak Urdu, and 12% speak other languages. Before 1948, Urdu was the official language of Hyderabad State, and due to a lack of Telugu-language in educational institutions, Urdu was spoken by the educated people of Telangana, including the elite. After 1948, once Hyderabad State joined the new Republic of India, Telugu became the language of government, and as Telugu was introduced as the medium of instruction in schools and colleges, the use of Urdu among non-Muslims decreased.

Literature

Poets of Telangana from the early era include Bammera Pothana, Kancherla Gopanna or Bhakta Ramadasu, Malliya Rechana, Gona Budda Reddy, Kuppambika, Palkurthi Somanatha, Mallinātha Sūri, and Hulukki Bhaskara. In the modern era poets include such figures as Padma Vibhushan Kaloji Narayana Rao, Sahitya Akademi Award recipient Daasarathi Krishnamacharyulu, and Jnanpith Award recipient C. Narayana Reddy, as well as P. V. Narasimha Rao, ninth Prime Minister of India. Samala Sadasiva was selected for the Kendra Sahitya Puraskaram distinction. His book Swaralayalu on the subject of Hindustani classical music won the award for the year 2011.

Urdu literature has always enjoyed patronage from successive rulers of the Qutb Shahi and Asaf Jahi era. Mohammed Quli Qutb Shah, the fifth ruler of the Qutb Shahi dynasty is regarded as one of the pioneers of early Urdu poetry.

During the rule of Nizams of Hyderabad, printing was introduced in the area. The 18th-century courtesan and poet Mah Laqa Bai are also regarded as a pioneer of this time. During the 18th 19th and 20th centuries, many Urdu scholars emigrated to Hyderabad seeking the patronage of the Nizam. This included Fani Badayuni, Josh Malihabadi and Dagh Dehlavi. Other scholars of repute from Telangana included Makhdoom Mohiuddin and Sayyid Shamsullah Qadri.

Religion

The major religions of the people are Hinduism and Islam, though Buddhism was the dominant religion up to the 6th century. Hinduism was revived during the time of the Chalukyas and the Kakatiyas in the 12th century. The Vijayanagar rule saw the glorious days of Hinduism when the famed emperors, Krishnadeva Raya in particular, built new temples and beautified the old ones. Shiva, Vishnu, Hanuman and Ganapati have been the popular Hindu Gods. The Vugra Narasimha Swami Temple at Yadagirigutta and Thousand Pillar Temple at Warangal are among the oldest shrines in the state attracting people from different parts of the country for hundreds of years.

In terms of influence, Islam occupies the second place. It started spreading from the 14th century onwards. Mosques began to come up in many parts of the region during the Muslim rule. Christianity began to spread from 1701, especially among the socially disabled people. Educational institutions and churches grew in number in the Circars in the 18th-19th centuries when the East India Company and later the British government encouraged them. Other European countries were also active in building churches and taking care of the weaker sections of the people.

title: Daniel Morgan Monument

text:
Daniel Morgan Monument is a historic monument located at Spartanburg, Spartanburg County, South Carolina.  The statue was designed by John Quincy Adams Ward and the monument erected in 1881. The monument commemorates the centennial of the victory at the Revolutionary War Battle of Cowpens and its hero, General Daniel Morgan. The statue stands on a columnar granite shaft on an octagonal base designed by noted Charleston architect, Edward Brickell White. In 1960, the monument was moved about 100 yards across Morgan Square to its east end. However, in 2005 as part of a larger project involving the redesign and reconstruction of Morgan Square, the monument was returned to its original position at the corner of West Main and Magnolia Streets and its original orientation, facing Cowpens National Battlefield.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.

title: List of burials at Mount Auburn Cemetery

text:
Mount Auburn Cemetery is a historic, "garden-style" burial ground in Boston, Massachusetts, located between Cambridge and Watertown, and dedicated in 1831. The 174-acre grounds has long been the preferred burial ground for the middle class and elite of New England.

This list highlights its notable internees, though many others are contained within the large and scenic grounds.

There is an important instance in which burial at Mt, Auburn was proposed, but did not happen: the abolitionist John Brown, executed by Virginia in 1859. His friend Wendell Phillips, meeting the funeral party in Troy, New York, hoped to take the body to Boston for burial in Mount Auburn Cemetery, as Charles Turner Torrey had been. An impromptu announcement said this was not going to happen, since Brown had wanted to be buried at his farm in North Elba, New York. Phillips, speaking at the funeral, "intimated that Massachusetts would yet possess the remains of John Brown."

In the 2nd half of the 19th century, The Ladies' Repository magazine published a series of brief articles on "The Distinguished Dead of Mt. Auburn", six in 1870.

title: Diving at the 2014 Commonwealth Games – Men's synchronised 10 metre platform

text:
The men's synchronised 10 metre platform was part of the Diving at the 2014 Commonwealth Games program. The competition was held on 1 August 2014 at Royal Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh.

Schedule
All times are British Summer Time (UTC+1)

Format
A single round was held, with each team making six dives.  Eleven judges scored each dive:  three for each diver, and five for synchronisation.  Only the middle score counted for each diver, with the middle three counting for synchronisation.  These five scores were averaged, multiplied by 3, and multiplied by the dive's degree of difficulty to give a total dive score.  The scores for each of the five dives were summed to give a final score.

Results
Final results:

 Only four teams were registered to compete in the men's synchronized 10 metre platform event, which resulted in only the gold and silver medals being awarded.

title: Piobert's law

text:
Piobert's law applies to the reaction of solid propellant grains to generate hot gas. It is stated: "Burning takes place by parallel layers where the surface of the grain regresses, layer by layer, normal to the surface at every point."

History
The law was devised by French general Guillaume Piobert  in 1839 to explain the behavior of gunpowder, but it has subsequently been applied to other solid propellants. Description of the reaction as burning may cause confusion with simple atmospheric combustion of solid materials where a similar reaction progression may be attributed to availability of the oxygen reactant only at the surface of the solid being consumed by the reaction. In the case of single-phase propellant grains, the progression is attributed to heat transfer from the surface of the solid of energy necessary to initiate the reaction. The heat transfer rate increases with pressure; and smokeless powder reaction rates vary with pressure as described by Paul Vieille in 1893.

Mechanism
Studies of solid single- and double-base propellant reactions suggest a series of zones or phases as the reaction proceeds from the surface into the solid. The deepest portion of the solid experiencing heat transfer melts and begins phase transition from solid to gas in a foam zone. The gaseous propellant decomposes into simpler molecules in a surrounding fizz zone. Energy is released in a luminous outer flame zone where the simpler gas molecules react to form conventional combustion products like steam and carbon monoxide. Propellants designed for a minimum heat transfer pressure may fail to sustain the flame zone at lower pressures.

title: Papyrus Ambras

text:
Papyrus Ambras is a papyrus which was formerly in the collection of Ambras Castle near Inssbruck, and is now a part of the collection of the Vienna Museum. The first to draw attention to it was the Egyptologist Heinrich Karl Brugsch, who published about it in 1876.

Date
The papyrus stems from year 6 of the Whm Mswt or Renaissance, an era which started in year 19 of king Ramesses XI of the Twentieth Dynasty. In his year 19 this king started to count anew, with his year 19 either totally or partly coinciding with year 1 of the new era. Since some of the documents from the Whm Mswt are implicitly dated (i.e., without reference to the era), it is not always directly clear from the dateline whether a document stems from the ordinary year count of Ramesses XI or from the Whm Mswt. However, with Pap. Ambras there can be no doubt, since it explicitly mentions the Whm Mswt in its dateline.

Content
Pap. Ambras is inscribed on the recto only and sums up the content of two jars filled with documents.  It is clear that Ambras was meant as an inventory, probably to be stored with the jars themselves.
The papyrus states that these documents had been bought back from the people, apparently after they had been stolen during the Suppression of the Theban High Priest of Amun, Amenhotep, which is supposed to have taken place just prior to the start of the Renaissance.

Identification of the papyri
T. Eric Peet has suggested that several of the eight papyri from the second jar are to be identified as well known papyri concerning tomb robberies which have actually come down to us.
He identified:

-[ recto 2.2-3 ]:    Pap. BM 10068, recto

-[ recto 2.4 ]:    Pap. Abbott (“The examination of the Pyramid-tombs”)

-[ recto 2.5-6 ]: Pap. BM 10054

-[ recto 2.7 ]: Pap. Leopold II-Amherst (“The examination concerning the pyramid of the King of Upper Egypt Sekhemre’shedtaui”)

-[ recto 2.8-9 ]: (not identified)

-[ recto 2.10 ]: Pap. BM 10053, recto

-[ recto 2.11 ]: (not identified)

-[ recto 2.12 ]: (not identified)

In 2000 Ad Thijs published an article in which he drew renewed attention to the observations of Peet. His identifications differ slightly from those of Peet:

-[ recto 2.2-3 ]:    Pap. BM 10068, recto

-[ recto 2.4 ]:    Pap. Abbott, but possibly not the copy which survived

-[ recto 2.5-6 ]: (not identified)

-[ recto 2.7 ]: Pap. Leopold II-Amherst

-[ recto 2.8-9 ]: (not identified)

-[ recto 2.10 ]: Pap. BM 10053, recto

-[ recto 2.11 ]: Pap. BM 10054, the list of thieves contained on verso 5-6

-[ recto 2.12 ]: perhaps Pap. Mayer B (?)

All these documents, c.q. texts stem from the first wave of tomb-robbery trials which took place in year 16 and 17 of Ramesses IX.
However, as Peet noted, the verso of both Pap. BM 10068 and Pap. BM 10053 contains additional entries which are not described in Pap. Ambras:

 on the verso of Pap. BM 10068 we find two lists, commonly known as the “list of houses”, from an anonymous year 12 and the “Šrmt-list”  of which the date has not been filled in, but which must be slightly later than the “list of houses” due to the placing of the columns of text on the papyrus.

 on the verso of Pap. BM 10053 we find a text, dating from an anonymous year 9, dealing with thefts from the mortuary temples of Ramesses II and Ramesses III. It is more than likely that these thefts could only have taken place during the chaotic period when the High Priest of Amun, Amenhotep, was temporarily suppressed by the Viceroy of Kush Pinehesy.

These additional entries on the verso are important texts in themselves and should have been included in the inventory. From this, Peet concluded that these entries were added only after the repurchase of the papyri in year 6 of the Whm Mswt. This would  mean that the dates of the "list of houses" (year 12) and the "Šrmt-list" (year 12 or later) would become the highest known for the Whm Mswt. However, when Peet made his observations, it was still totally unclear where the Whm Mswt should be placed chronologically, so he could never press his case and his observations were more or less forgotten.

When the start of the Whm Mswt finally became (correctly) dated to year 19 of Ramesses XI, the texts on the verso’s of Pap. BM 10053 and 10068 became ascribed to the part of the reign of Ramesses XI prior to his proclamation of the Whm Mswt.

title: Franz Quaglio

text:
Franz Quaglio (22 April 1844, in Munich – 19 February 1920, in Wasserburg am Inn) was a German painter from a branch of the Quaglio painting family that had settled in Munich during the 18th Century.

Life
He was the son of the painter Simon Quaglio, who gave him his first art lessons. In 1862, he enrolled at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts, where he studied under Franz Adam. He specialized in rural genre scenes, occasionally treating more dramatic subjects such as soldiers and acrobats. His chief influences were his uncle Lorenzo Quaglio and Carl Theodor von Piloty, later deriving some techniques from the impressionists. He was a very prolific painter and travelled extensively, visiting Turkey, Greece and the Caucasus. Although he never held a formal teaching position, he often gave private art lessons. One of his best-known students was Vilma Lwoff-Parlaghy.

title: Bibliography of Aeolian Research

text:
The Bibliography of Aeolian Research (BAR) is a comprehensive 2015 bibliography focused on the study of the detachment, transport, and deposition of sediments by wind.

Aeolian research is a sub-discipline of the physical sciences that focuses on the activity of the winds, with an emphasis on the winds' ability to interact with and shape the surface of the Earth and other planets.  Aeolian research spans a broad array of disciplines and may include the study of aeolian processes and associated aeolian landforms, aeolian deposits, and sedimentary features; the study of wind erosion and its control by tillage, cover crops, shelterbelts, and other management practices; and the study of mineral dust, dust storms and the effects of fine particulate matter on climate and air quality.

An extensive Bibliography of Aeolian Research (BAR) was constructed that contains references to every known scientific manuscript published in the field of aeolian research from 1646 to 2015. The BAR contains over 43,000 bibliographic citations.

As with most bibliographies, the Bibliography of Aeolian Research has benefited from past bibliographies.  The BAR lists more than forty-five bibliographies that focus on at least one aspect of aeolian research and parts of these have been incorporated into the BAR.  Older bibliographies are especially important because they provide a record of early publications.  The oldest bibliography incorporated into the BAR is the Bibliography of Meteorology compiled by Oliver Fassig in 1889.  Citations have also been extracted from the Bibliography of Eolian Geology prepared for the United States Department of Agriculture by Conrad Stuntz and Edward Free. Other important bibliographies that have been incorporated into the BAR include two online bibliographies that were maintained by Andrew Warren of University College London titled A Bibliography of Wind Erosion and Related Phenomena and A Bibliography of Desert Dunes and Associated Phenomena.  The Bibliography of Aeolian Research contains more citations extracted from these two bibliographies than from any other source.  Citations were also obtained from a monthly internet posting called Aeolian Papers of the Month, a list of published papers compiled each month from 1996-2001 by Thomas Gill at the Texas Tech University.

Editors Andrew Warren, John Stout and Thomas Gill collected bibliographic citations by searching databases and extracting citations from recent publications. New entries included citations to scholarly articles, books, theses, dissertations, and reports.

title: ERHC

text:
ERHC, is a publicly traded American corporation with oil and gas assets in Sub-Saharan Africa. The company has oil and gas exploration interests in the Republic of Kenya, Chad and São Tomé and Príncipe. Oil and gas explorations are also located in the Principe Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and the Nigeria-São Tomé and Príncipe Joint Development Zone (JDZ).

History
ERHC, founded in 1986 in Colorado as the Environmental Remediation Holding Corporation, notably completed an airborne Full Tensor Gravity (FTG) survey of Block 11A in northwestern Kenya in January 2014. Bell Geospace flew the FTG on ERHC's behalf and acquired a total of 14,943.8 line km. The results confirmed that the Lotikipi basin extends into Block 11A and provided the company’s exploration team with new information to aid in the identification of the most prospective areas in the area.

That month ERHC contracted BGP Inc., a Chinese geophysical service company, to its northern Kenya exploration block and identify the best possible drilling spots. The company set aside $40 million for the venture.

In February 2014, ERHC completed its farmout agreement with CEPSA, a Spanish oil and gas company. Following the agreement, CEPSA acquired a 55 percent stake in Block 11A. ERHC retained 35 percent of interest in Block 11A.

Chadian President Idriss Déby gave ERHC his approval to retain oil exploration block BDS 2008 and voluntary relinquishment of the Manga and Chari-Ouest III Blocks in May 2014. The company holds 100% of the interest in block BDS 2008 in southern Chad which encompasses 41800 square km. After the approval, ERHC began using a series of convertible notes to fund a magnetic/gravity survey and a 2D seismic acquisition program.

In 2015, ERHC partnered with Cepsa to further exploration in Kenya on Block 11A. That January, the company announced that it was continuing its exploration program in Kenya. ERHC discovered the Tarach-1 prospect-drilling site for the first exploration well in June 2015. 13 drillable prospects were identified in the basin.

title: Roller Coaster (Luke Bryan song)

text:
"Roller Coaster" is a song written by Michael Carter and Cole Swindell and recorded by American country music artist Luke Bryan. It was released in June 2014 as the fifth single from Bryan’s 2013 album Crash My Party.

Background and writing
Cole Swindell, who formerly sold merchandise for Bryan, wrote the song with Bryan's guitarist and bandleader, Michael Carter, on October 6, 2011 in Valdosta, Georgia. The inspiration for the song was the Miracle Strip Amusement Park in Panama City, Florida, a destination that Bryan, Swindell, and Carter had visited on summer vacations. Swindell and Carter recorded a demo for Bryan, which featured Swindell singing. Upon hearing the demo, Bryan thought that Swindell had the potential to get a record deal of his own; after Swindell became a recording artist himself, Carter produced his self-titled debut album. Swindell said that he considered the song "one of my favorite songs I've ever written" and "special" because of his and Carter's friendships with Bryan.

Content
The song is a mid-tempo ballad about a man who encounters a woman while on vacation in Panama City. The first verse contains details specific to the area, such as Thomas Drive, a road near the former amusement park. In the song, the man befriends the woman, then states that "she's got [him] twisted like that old beach roller coaster" after she leaves. Swindell told Billboard, "Going down there, you always met a girl — like a day before you had to leave, you got up enough courage to finally talk to her, and then she's got to leave the next day."

Tom Roland of Billboard described the song as "smooth and understated" and "reflective [and] melancholy". Carter noted that the melody of the chorus repeats a single note because he wanted the song to be easily sung along with by fans. The original demo featured a cold open, but Bryan and his producer, Jeff Stevens, decided to create an intro because Bryan felt that "[s]tarting with a straight-in lyric, half the time you miss the lyrics." Stevens decided to "start it off with the easy beach feel and let it ride." The song features a bass guitar line performed by Jimmie Lee Sloas, and two backing vocal tracks both sung by session vocalist Perry Coleman. The song is set in the key of A major with a moderate tempo and a primary chord pattern of A-E/G-F7-D and a vocal range of D-F.

Critical reception
Country music blog Taste of Country reviewed the song positively. The review contrasted it with "'Til Summer Comes Around" by Keith Urban in saying that it was more "positive" than that song, also saying that "The roller coaster metaphor is creative — it’s what separates this song from others that rely on an increasingly used country trope. Once again it’s Bryan’s natural charisma that lifts a lyric that wouldn’t work for someone less lovable. Little details like Thomas Drive feel personal. He’s becoming one of country’s top storytellers."

Billboard and American Songwriter ranked "Roller Coaster" at number six and number five, respectively, on their lists of the 10 greatest Luke Bryan songs.

Music video
The official music video for "Roller Coaster" was directed by Michael Monaco and filmed in Panama City Beach, Florida in the spring of 2014 as part of spring break festivities. It premiered June 20, 2014.

Chart performance
"Roller Coaster" debuted at No. 60 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week ending July 5, 2014. The same week, "Roller Coaster" re-entered at No. 47 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. For the week ending October 18, the song reached number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, making it Bryan's tenth number one hit.  As of November 2014, the song had sold 583,000 copies in the US.

title: Marshalee (Elkridge, Maryland)

text:
Marshalee Plantation, sometimes spelled as "Marshallee" or referred to as "Lyndwood" or "Markham", was a plantation located in Elkridge, Maryland in Howard County, Maryland, United States.

The plantation was the home of Rebecca Snowden and Confederate Col. Charles Marshall, the aide-de-camp to Robert E. Lee. Marshall drafted Lee's Farewell Address. Rebecca was the daughter of Col Thomas Snowden of Montpelier

History
James C. Adams built the two story home on 252 acres with stone construction and stucco coating in 1845, naming it Lyndwood. The walls measured 20 inches thick. In 1876, Col. Marshall purchased the property, renaming it "Markham". Outbuildings included a log gatekeepers house. In 1902 Marshall died, passing on the property to his granddaughter. In 1939 Col. Randolph Coyle and his wife purchased the property, renaming it "Marshalee", a combination of the names of Col. Marshall and General Lee. Modern Marshalee drive in Elkridge and Ellicott City is named after the manor. The property was subdivided and reduced to 200 acres and purposefully left vacant. In 1976, the property was purchased by Joel G. Greer Jr. Properties/Marriott Corporation, who had sought to build a Baltimore-Washington corridor amusement park and were denied zoning.

The plantation house was destroyed by fire in 1978.  The property has since been developed to build the "Timbers at Troy" golf course, paid for with Howard County Bonds.

title: Caesar's Camp, Rushmoor and Waverley

text:
Caesar's Camp is an Iron Age hill fort straddling the border of the counties of Surrey and Hampshire in southern England. The fort straddles the borough of Waverley in Surrey and the borough of Rushmoor and the district of Hart, both in Hampshire. Caesar's Camp is a Scheduled Ancient Monument with a list entry identification number of 1007895. It lies approximately  north of the town of Farnham, and a similar distance west of Aldershot. The hillfort lies entirely within the Bourley and Long Valley Site of Special Scientific Interest. Caesar's Camp is a multivallate hillfort, a fort with multiple defensive rings, occupying an irregular promontory, with an entrance on the south side. The site has been much disturbed by military activity, especially at the southeast corner. The remains of the hillfort are considered to be of national importance.

History
It is possible that Caesar's Camp developed in the Late Bronze Age, as a fort associated with the River Wey. There were three Iron Age phases of the fort. In its earliest form, Caesar's Camp was a univallate fort. In its second phase of development, the defences were multivallate with a timber palisade. Later, a bank was built over the line of the palisade, replacing it. After the third phase, the site was apparently abandoned until the medieval period, when a park pale was built, making use of the final phase of the Iron Age defences. Caesar's Camp belonged to the Farnham estate of the Bishop of Winchester in the 11th century; by the 13th century it formed part of a park associated with Farnham Castle.

Site description
Caesar's Camp stands  above mean sea level, and the Bagshot Beds of sand surface on the northern slopes of the hill. The area around the hillfort features extensive areas of open heathland. The defences on the east side have been damaged by a modern quarry. The interior of the fort is largely undisturbed, and the rarity of large multivallate Iron Age forts has resulted in Caesar's Camp being regarded as of national importance by Historic England.

The fort is large and encloses an area of . The earthwork ramparts and ditches largely follow the contours of the hill. The ramparts cut across the neck of the plateau on the south side; on the north and northeast sides there are no earthwork defences since the steep scarps render them unnecessary. On the southwest side, marshland was incorporated into the defences, and gaps in the rampart occur in that area. On the east side the defences consisted of a double rampart. The inner rampart is  wide and  high; the ditch between the ramparts is  deep and  wide. The outer rampart is  wide and stands  high. Outside the second rampart is another ditch, this measuring  deep. On the southeast side, the defences consisted of a triple rampart and a counter-scarp bank that continued to the south side. The fort's defences were strongest on the south, where they cut across level ground.

The main entrance to the fort is believed to have been halfway along the east side; however, direct evidence is lacking due to the damage caused to the supposed entrance by modern quarrying. A trackway cuts through the strong defences on the south side, but this may be modern.

The medieval park pale is evident as a bank and accompanying ditch running along the western edge of Caesar's Camp. The bank is  wide and stands  high. The ditch runs on the inside of the bank and measures  wide and is  deep. Some  outside the rampart on the southwest side are the remains of what has been interpreted as a defensive outlier, or an earlier version of the defences, consisting of a low  wide rampart. However, this feature may instead be the misinterpreted remains of the medieval park pale, the spoil of which was thrown over the Iron Age defences.

The fort's height and proximity to Farnborough airport make it a popular spot to view Farnborough Airshow for free. On a clear day, major London landmarks can be seen from its top including the Shard, Canary Wharf and the Wembley Arch.

Finds
A  trench was excavated by N. Riall in 1983.

Miscellaneous finds at Caesar's Camp include a Roman roof tile, which is now held in Camberley Museum, and an early rapier dating to the Middle Bronze Age (c. 1500–1000 BC). The sword has been assigned to the Thetford Class of Trump's Group II, characterised by a trapezoid butt with two notches, and dated to 1200–1000 BC. The weapon is forged from a copper alloy and has a fluted blade with three central ribs. It has a total length of ; the blade is  wide and  thick. The hilt plate is  wide.  This sword is now held in the British Museum.

title: Receptor modulator

text:
A receptor modulator, or receptor ligand, is a general term for a substance, endogenous or exogenous, that binds to and regulates the activity of chemical receptors. They are ligands that can act on different parts of receptors and regulate activity in a positive, negative, or neutral direction with varying degrees of efficacy. Categories of these modulators include receptor agonists and receptor antagonists, as well as receptor partial agonists, inverse agonists, orthosteric modulators, and allosteric modulators, Examples of receptor modulators in modern medicine include CFTR modulators, selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs), and muscarinic ACh receptor modulators.

Categorization and function
Currently, receptor modulators are categorized in the Agonist, Partial Agonist, Selective Tissue Modulators, Antagonist, and Inverse Agonist categories in terms of the effect they cause. They are further divided into Orthosteric or Allosteric Modulators according to how they effect said result. Typically, a chemical acts in an agonist fashion whenever it instigates or else facilitates a particular reaction by binding to a particular receptor. In contract, a chemical acts as an antagonist whenever binding to a particular receptor blocks or inhibits a particular response. Between these endpoints exists a gradient defined by a number of variables. One example is Selective Tissue Modulators, which mean a given ligand can behave differently according to the tissue type it is in. As for orthosteric and allosteric modulation, this describes the manner in which the ligand binds to the receptor in question: if it binds directly to the prescribed binding site of a receptor, the ligand is orthosteric in this instance; if the ligand alters the receptor by interacting with it at any place other than a binding site, allosteric interaction occurred. Note that a drug’s categorization does not dictate how another drug of the same family could be categorized or whether the same drug may also function in another category. An example is found in medications used to treat opioid addiction, with methadone, buprenorphine, naloxone, and naltrexone all in separate categories or in more than one simultaneously. In addition, depending on the cell type, the specific effect, whether agonist, antagonist, inverse agonist, etc., could have a unique specific effect. An example is seen in insulin, under “Receptor Agonists,” as it interacts with multiple different cell types as an agonist, but incites multiple and different responses in both.

Agonists

Receptor agonists
A receptor agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor with the end result of directly inducing a conformational change in the bound receptor and activating a downstream effect. Some common examples are opium derivates, such as heroin and Toll-like receptor agonists. Heroin functions in this manner, along with other opioids, when bound to µ-opioid receptors. Opioids’ manner of action are both concentration- and receptor-dependent, which provides a key difference between agonists and partial agonists. Another example is insulin, which activates cell receptors to instigate blood glucose uptake.

Partial agonists
Partial agonists are any chemical that can bind to a receptor without eliciting the maximum downstream response as compared to the response from a full agonist. A given partial agonist’s affinity for a given receptor is also irrelevant to the consequent effect. An example is buprenorphine, a partial opioid receptor agonist used to treat opioid addictions by directly substituting for them without the same strength of effect.

Selective receptor modulators

Receptor antagonists
A receptor antagonist is any given ligand that binds to a receptor in some way without causing any immediate or downstream response, essentially neutralizing the receptor until something with a stronger affinity removes the antagonist or the antagonist itself unbinds. Generally, antagonists can act one of two ways: 1) they can either block the receptors directly, preventing the usual ligand from binding, such as in the case of atropine when it blocks specific acetylcholine receptors to provide important medical benefits. This is competitive antagonism, as they are competing for the same binding sites on the receptor. The other is by binding to a receptor in a site other than the designated receptor site, inducing a conformational change to prevent the usual ligand(s) from binding and activating a downstream cascade. A commonly-seen and used receptor antagonist is naloxone, another opioid competitive antagonist typically used to treat opioid overdoses by blocking receptors outright. Further elaboration can be found in “Orthosteric v. Allosteric Modulators."

Inverse agonists
Inverse agonists differ from regular agonists in that they effect receptors to which a regular agonist binds such that the bound receptors demonstrate reduced activity compared to when they are normally inactive. In other words, inverse antagonists limit the efficacy of the bound receptor in some way. This is noted to be beneficial in instances wherein expression of receptors or up-regulated receptor sensitivity could be detrimental, thus making suppression of response the best recourse. A handful of examples of inverse agonist use in therapy include β-blockers, antihistamines, ACP-103 to treat Parkinson’s disease, hemopressin, drugs to treat obesity, and more besides.
