At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, 2012–2017 received an average score of 82, based on 5 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Writing for Pitchfork, Andrew Gaerig wrote that "Jaar lets loose a surprise release of sample-heavy cuts both bolder and more refined than his early club tracks", giving the album the site's "Best New Music" designation. Clash's Matthew Cooper positively reviewed 2012–2017, describing it as "[having] an instant impact as Jaar substitutes avant-garde dystopian techno with the most off kilter time signatures for something much more predictable". Reviewing the album for AllMusic, Fred Thomas compared it to Jaar's previous work, stating "it's easily the most carefree and inviting of his work. No previous knowledge of his catalog is necessary to get happily lost in the blissful layers of 2012/2017."

# Beschendorf

Beschendorf is a municipality and a town in the district of Ostholstein, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
# Betaine

A betaine (/ˈbiːtə.iːn, bɪˈteɪ-, -ɪn/) in chemistry is any neutral chemical compound with a positively charged cationic functional group that bears no hydrogen atom, such as a quaternary ammonium or phosphonium cation (generally: onium ions), and with a negatively charged functional group, such as a carboxylate group that may not be adjacent to the cationic site. Historically, the term was reserved for trimethylglycine (TMG), which is involved in methylation reactions and detoxification of homocysteine. This is a modified amino acid consisting of glycine with three methyl groups serving as methyl donor for various metabolic pathways.

## Pronunciation

The pronunciation of the compound reflects its origin and first isolation from sugar beets (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris), and does not derive from the Greek letter beta (β). It is commonly pronounced beta-INE or BEE-tayn.

## Glycine betaine

The original betaine, N,N,N-trimethylglycine, was named after its discovery in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) in the nineteenth century. It is a small N-trimethylated amino acid. It is a zwitterion, which cannot isomerize because there is no labile hydrogen atom attached to the nitrogen atom. This substance may be called glycine betaine to distinguish it from other betaines.

## Uses
### Biochemistry

Phosphonium betaines are intermediates in the Wittig reaction. The addition of betaine to polymerase chain reactions improves the amplification of DNA by reducing the formation of secondary structure in GC-rich regions. The addition of betaine may enhance the specificity of the polymerase chain reaction by eliminating the base pair composition dependence of DNA melting.

### Food additive

In 2017, the European Food Safety Authority concluded that betaine was safe "as a novel food to be used at a maximum intake level of 6 mg/kg body weight per day in addition to the intake from the background diet."

### Approved drug

A prescription drug (Cystadane) containing betaine has limited use for oral treatment of genetic homocystinuria to lower levels of homocysteine in circulating blood.

### Dietary supplement

Trimethylglycine, a betaine, is used as a dietary supplement, although there is no evidence that it is effective or safe. Common side effects of taking oral betaine include nausea and stomach upset.

## Safety

Many betaines are irritants of the eyes and skin.

# Betzy Akersloot-Berg

Betzy Rezora Akersloot-Berg (16 December 1850 – 18 December 1922) was a Norwegian-born seascape and landscape painter who spent most of her career on the Dutch island of Vlieland in Friesland.

## Biography

She was born in the village of Aurskog in Akershus, Norway. Her parents, Casper Cristiansen Berg (1828-1914) and Bartha Nordbye (1829-1912) were landowners. Later, they moved to Christiania (now Oslo) where her father became a businessman.
Originally, she trained as a nurse, then worked as a combination nurse and missionary among the Sami in Finnmark. However, she found herself attracted to painting and ultimately decided to take lessons at the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry (Statens håndverks- og kunstindustriskole), where she studied with Wilhelm von Hanno and Frits Thaulow. Later, she worked with Otto Sinding and followed him when he moved to Munich in Germany.
During a trip to Vienna, she saw some works by the Dutch marine painter, Hendrik Willem Mesdag, which greatly impressed her. In 1885, she had a chance meeting with him and his family. This led to studies with him at his workshop in The Hague. She became close friends with his wife, Sientje van Houten, who painted a portrait of her. In 1890, she studied briefly with Puvis de Chavannes in Paris.
Through them, she met Gooswinus Gerardus Akersloot (1843-1929), the former mayor of Hoevelaken, who had recently lost his wife. They were married in 1893. Three years later, they settled in Oost-Vlieland where they bought the oldest house in town and named it "Tromp's Huys", in honor of Admiral Cornelis Tromp. Although isolated, she travelled every summer and was able to participate in exhibitions throughout Europe. She traveled to the coast of Norway as well as to other European coastal communities to paint coastal landscapes. In addition to painting, she ran a Sunday School and a sewing society for girls. She remained there until her death in 1922.
"Tromp's Huys" became a museum in 1956. Most of her approximately 300 works are kept there and sent out for exhibits, including a major retrospective at the Noordelijk Scheepvaartmuseum in 1992. They were also shown at a special exhibition in Aurskog (1996), and another at the Nordkappmuseet [no] in Honningsvåg, near the place where she worked with the Sami (2004).

# Banksia gardneri var. gardneri

Banksia gardneri var. gardneri is a variety of Banksia gardneri. As an autonym, it is defined as encompassing the type material of the species. It is native to the Southwest Botanical Province of Western Australia.

## Use in horticulture

Banksia gardneri gardneri is a slow growing shrub though fairly easy to grow. It is less vigorous than Banksia blechnifolia or B. petiolaris. Seeds do not require any treatment, and take 19 to 64 days to germinate.
# Barbary striped grass mouse

The Barbary striped grass mouse (Lemniscomys barbarus) is a small rodent of the suborder Myomorpha. This monotypic species is native to coastal Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia in northwest Africa. In the past it was believed to also occur throughout a large part of Sub-Saharan Africa, but these populations are now treated as a separate species, the Heuglin's striped grass mouse (L. zebra). These relatively small Lemniscomys are among the species most commonly kept in captivity.
The Barbary, Heuglin's and Hoogstral's striped grass mouse (L. hoogstraali) form a group that have a distinctly dark and light striped pelage. Other Lemniscomys either have more spotty/interrupted stripes or only a single dark stripe along the back.
# Bank Parade drill hall

The Bank Parade drill hall, also known as the Keighley Green Drill Hall, is a former military installation in Burnley, Lancashire.

## History

The building was designed as the headquarters of the 2nd Volunteer Battalion, The East Lancashire Regiment and completed in the early 20th century. The unit evolved to become the 5th Battalion, The East Lancashire Regiment in 1908. The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before being deployed to Gallipoli and ultimately to the Western Front. More recruits, this time for Z Company, the 11th (Service) Battalion (Accrington), East Lancashire Regiment, were also assembled at the drill hall the following month.
The battalion amalgamated with the 4th Battalion to form the 4th/5th Battalion at the Canterbury Street drill hall in Blackburn in 1921. The drill hall was decommissioned and it became a well-established boxing venue during the 1930s. It was used by the Home Guard during the Second World War and currently operates as a snooker club.
# Banting Research Foundation

The Banting Research Foundation is a registered charity whose object was to fund health and biomedical research in Canada. It was established to support the ongoing research of Frederick Banting and his associates.

## History

The Banting Research Foundation was created in 1925 to commemorate the discovery of insulin and to support further medical research by Frederick G. Banting and other scientists in Canada, hoping to find additional medical discoveries of equal importance. A fundraising campaign in 1925, led by Sir William Mulock, Chancellor of the University of Toronto, raised $500,000 from individual and corporate donors to establish an endowment. A large bequest in 1948 from the estate of Kate E Taylor of Toronto was added to the endowment. From its inception, the intent was to create a fund for researchers with "good ideas but no money", as was the situation for Banting when he approached JJR Macleod in 1921 with a request for facilities and resources to pursue his ideas about insulin. The Foundation continues that tradition by making grant funds available only to investigators whose research funding is limited. The Foundation was the first and virtually the only organization funding medical research in Canada until 1938 when the National Research Council included medical research in its funding programs.

### Some notable grant recipients

* Frederick Banting
* Charles Best
* Wilfred Gordon Bigelow
* Bruce Chown
* Michel Chrétien
* Adolfo J. de Bold
* John Dirks
* Wilbur R. Franks
* Clarke Fraser
* Henry Friesen
* Arthur Ham
* Charles Hollenberg
* Charles Philippe Leblond
* D. W. Gordon Murray
* William Thornton Mustard
* Janet Rossant
* Louis Siminovitch

## Governance

The Foundation is incorporated in the province of Ontario, Canada. It is governed by a Board of Trustees, the make-up of which is specified in its Letters Patent as follows: three Trustees appointed by the Governing Council of the University of Toronto, two Trustees appointed by the University of Toronto Alumni Association, two Trustees appointed from the University of Toronto's Faculty of Medicine, and one Trustee appointed by the other Trustees.
The original Board of Trustees in 1925 was composed of Sir Robert Falconer, chairman, Lt Col Reuben W Leonard, Rev Canon Henry J Cody, Charles Strange MacDonald, William Edward Gallie, John Gerald FitzGerald, Velyien Ewart Henderson, and John William Rogers.
