Portrait of William Beckford
Portrait of William Beckford is a 1782 portrait painting by the British artist Joshua Reynolds. It depicts William Beckford, noted as a novelist during the Georgian era. Having inherited vast-owning wealth from his Jamaican slave-owning father William Beckford, the younger William pursued his interests in the arts. He is known for his creation of Fonthill Abbey in Wiltshire.

Reynolds was a celebrated portraitist, a founder member of the Royal Academy of Arts and its First President. It was exhibited at the Roal Academy's Summer Exhibition in 1782 and much later at the British Institution in 1862.
Today the painting is in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London, having been acquired in 1980.

It is also "the longest continuously staged exhibition of contemporary art in the world".

When the Royal Academy was founded in 1768, one of its key objectives was to establish an annual exhibition, open to all artists of merit, which could be visited by the public. The first Summer Exhibition took place in 1769; it has been held every year since without exception.
Shepherd of the Hills State Park

It shares a border with the Ruth and Paul Henning Conservation Area and is traversed by more than two miles of Roark Creek, including a stretch of the three-mile-long East Fork Roark Creek. The site includes a one-room schoolhouse that served the former community of Garber. On May 4, 2022, Missouri State Parks announced that park's name will be changed from Ozark Mountain State Park to Shepherd of the Hills State Park. The name change honors Harold Bell Wright's popular novel The Shepherd of the Hills, which is set in the vicinity of the park.

Between 1902 and 1942 Wright wrote 19 books, several stage plays, and many magazine articles. More than 15 movies were made or claimed to be made from Wright's stories, including Gary Cooper's first major movie, The Winning of Barbara Worth (1926) and the John Wayne film The Shepherd of the Hills (1941).
Investigating Committee for Preparatory Work for Independence
The Investigating Committee for Preparatory Work for Independence (Indonesian: Badan Penyelidik Usaha-Usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan, abbreviated as BPUPK; Japanese: 独立準備調査会, Hepburn: Dokuritsu Junbi Chōsakai, Nihon-shiki / Kunrei-shiki: Dokuritu Zyunbi Tyoosa-kai), sometimes referred to, but better known locally, as the Investigating Committee for Preparatory Work for Indonesian Independence (Indonesian: Badan Penyelidik Usaha-Usaha Persiapan Kemerdekaan Indonesia, BPUPKI), was an organization set up on 1 March 1945 by the Japanese military authority in Java during the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies as the initial stage of the establishment of independence for the area under the control of the Japanese 16th Army.

Kunrei-shiki
Kunrei-shiki (Japanese: 訓令式ローマ字, Hepburn: Kunrei-shiki rōmaji; rgh. 'Cabinet-ordered style of Roman letters'), also known as the Monbusho system (named after the endonym for the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) or MEXT system, is a romanization system for transcribing the Japanese language into the Latin alphabet. Its name is rendered Kunreisiki in the system itself. It is taught in the Monbushō-approved elementary school curriculum. The ISO has standardized Kunrei-shiki under ISO 3602.

Kunrei-shiki is based on the older Nihon-shiki romanization, which was modified for modern standard Japanese. For example, the word かなづかい, romanized kanadukai in Nihon-shiki, is pronounced kanazukai in modern standard Japanese and is romanized as such in Kunrei-shiki. The system competes with the older Hepburn romanization system, which was promoted by the SCAP during the Allied occupation of Japan after World War II.

2-Bromomescaline
2-Bromomescaline (2-BM or 2-Br-M), also known as 2-bromo-3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine, is a putative psychedelic drug of the scaline family and derivative of the phenethylamine hallucinogen mescaline which has an unusual 2-bromo substitution. It is an agonist for serotonin receptors, with a binding affinity of 215 nM at 5-HT1A, 513 nM at 5-HT2A and 379 nM at 5-HT2C, so while it is around 10 times more tightly binding than mescaline at 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors, it is over 20 times more potent at 5-HT2C. The drug was 5-fold more potent in substituting for LSD than mescaline in rats. It is not known to have been tested in humans. 2-Bromomescaline was first described in the scientific literature, as a chemical intermediate, in 1972. It has been reported as a designer drug, first identified in Austria in January 2023. The drug is not a controlled substance in Canada as of 2025.

5-HT1A receptor
The serotonin 1A receptor (or 5-HT1A receptor) is a subtype of serotonin receptors, or 5-HT receptors, that binds serotonin, also known as 5-HT, a neurotransmitter. 5-HT1A is expressed in the brain, spleen, and neonatal kidney. It is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), coupled to the Gi protein, and its activation in the brain mediates hyperpolarization and reduction of firing rate of the postsynaptic neuron. In humans, the serotonin 1A receptor is encoded by the HTR1A gene.
