Gastrodia agnicellus
Gastrodia agnicellus is a species of orchid in the genus Gastrodia, found in Madagascar and described in Curtis's Botanical Magazine  by Johan Hermans in 2020. It has been said to be "the ugliest orchid in the world", with "brown, fleshy and grotesque" flowers. Like all species in its genus, it is leafless and mycotrophic.

The species name agnicellus means "little lamb" or "lambkin". The name "refers to the woolly covering on the rhizome, the ear-like petals and also alludes to the name of the botanical artist who brought the new species to life in her drawing." For her work on this species the illustrator, Deborah Lambkin, won the 2020 Margaret Flockton Award, an annual award "for excellence in scientific botanical illustration" made by the Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney.

Johan Hermans
Johan Hermans (born 1956) is a British botanist specialising in orchids, and an Honorary Research Associate of Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. His The Orchids of Madagascar, described as "a now classic work", was published in a second edition in 2007.

The species Gastrodia agnicellus, which he described in 2020, has been called "the ugliest orchid in the world" and named by Kew as one of the "Top 10 species new to science in 2020".

The standard author abbreviation Hermans is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.

Bambouk
Bambouk (sometimes Bambuk or Bambuhu) is a traditional name for the territory in eastern Senegal and western Mali, encompassing the Bambouk Mountains on its eastern edge, the valley of the Faleme River and the hilly country to the east of the river valley.  It was a formally described district in French Sudan, but in 1895, the border between French Sudan and Senegal was moved to the Faleme River, placing the western portion of the district within Senegal.  The term is still used to designate the region, but there is no formal administrative area with that name.

Bambouk is primarily home to the Malinké people, and a distinctive dialect of the Maninkakan language is spoken there.
Rotating disk electrode
In analytical chemistry, a rotating disk electrode (RDE) is a working electrode used in three-electrode systems for hydrodynamic voltammetry.  The electrode rotates during experiments, inducing a flux of analyte to the electrode.  These working electrodes are used in electrochemical studies when investigating reaction mechanisms related to redox chemistry, among other chemical phenomena.  The more complex rotating ring-disk electrode can be used as a rotating disk electrode if the ring is left inactive during the experiment.

Cyclic voltammetry
In electrochemistry, cyclic voltammetry (CV) is a type of voltammetric measurement where the potential of the working electrode is ramped linearly versus time. Unlike in linear sweep voltammetry, after the set potential is reached in a CV experiment, the working electrode's potential is ramped in the opposite direction to return to the initial potential. These cycles in potential are repeated until the voltammetric trace reaches a cyclic steady state. The current at the working electrode is plotted versus the voltage at the working electrode to yield the cyclic voltammogram (see Figure 1). Cyclic voltammetry is generally used to study the electrochemical properties of an analyte in solution or of a molecule that is adsorbed onto the electrode, and to quantify electrochemical surface area of catalysts in electrochemical cells.
TNA Lockdown (2011)
The 2011 Lockdown was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) promotion, that took  place on April 17, 2011 at the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The event featured double main events in which Sting defeated Rob Van Dam and Mr. Anderson in a steel cage match to retain the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, and Fortune (James Storm, Robert Roode, Kazarian and Christopher Daniels) defeated Immortal (Ric Flair, Abyss, Bully Ray and Matt Hardy) in a Lethal Lockdown match. In the other match at the top of the card Jeff Jarrett defeated Kurt Angle in an "Ultra Male Rules" Two out of Three Falls Steel Cage match.

In October 2017, with the launch of the Global Wrestling Network, the event became available to stream on demand.
