Viscounty Of Àger
The Viscounty of Àger (Catalan ''Vescomtat d'Àger'') was a feudal jurisdiction that branched off the County of Urgell in 1094. History Towards 1030 Arnau Mir, Lord of Tost, conquered Àger from the saracens. The latter however, fought back and reconquered Àger shortly thereafter. Following a period of long-drawn battles Arnau Mir finally conquered Àger in 1047, driving out the saracens from the region for good. Arnau became connected to the viscounts of Urgell through his sister's marriage. By 1094, when the Catalan nobles were preparing for the conquest of Balaguer further south, Àger became the centre of the newly created Viscounty of Lower Urgell (''Vescomtat del Baix Urgell''). This viscounty was given to Guerau II Viscount of Girona, the grandson of Arnau Mir, Lord of Tost. In his will, written in 1132, this viscount refers to himself already as Viscount of Àger.

The Ager emerged towards the end of the Würm glaciation, when the mighty glaciers began to melt. Influx into the Ager: *The Fornacher Redlbach flows into the Ager west of Vöcklamarkt *The Vöckla flows into the Ager by Vöcklabruck *The Aurach flows into the Ager by Wankham Over the Attersee the Ager also receives water from the Mondsee, the Irrsee (also called Zeller See), and the Fuschlsee, that are all connected by relatively short streams. In the postwar period, the Ager was strongly polluted by various nearby factories. Today this is less the case because several sewage treatment plant Sewage treatment (or domestic wastewater treatment, municipal wastewater treatment) is a type of wastewater treatment which aims to remove contaminants from sewage to produce an effluent that is suitable for ...

Technical Research Ship
Technical research ships were used by the United States Navy during the 1960s to gather intelligence by monitoring, recording and analyzing wireless electronic communications of nations in various parts of the world. At the time these ships were active, the mission of the ships was covert and discussion of the true mission was prohibited ("classified information"). The mission of the ships was publicly given as conducting research into atmospheric and communications phenomena. However, the true mission was more or less an open secret and the ships were commonly referred to as "spy ships". Function These ships carried a crew of U.S. Navy personnel whose specialty was intercepting wireless electronic communications and gathering intelligence from those communications ( signals intelligence, communications intelligence, and electronic signals intelligence (SIGINT)). In the 1960s those personnel had a U.S. Navy rating of Communications Technician (later changed to Cryptologic Tech ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
RAGE (receptor)
RAGE ( receptor for advanced glycation endproducts), also called AGER, is a 35 kilodalton transmembrane receptor of the immunoglobulin super family which was first characterized in 1992 by Neeper ''et al.'' Its name comes from its ability to bind advanced glycation endproducts ( AGE), which include chiefly glycoproteins, the glycans of which have been modified non-enzymatically through the Maillard reaction. In view of its inflammatory function in innate immunity and its ability to detect a class of ligands through a common structural motif, RAGE is often referred to as a pattern recognition receptor. RAGE also has at least one other agonistic ligand: high mobility group protein B1 ( HMGB1). HMGB1 is an intracellular DNA-binding protein important in chromatin remodeling which can be released by necrotic cells passively, and by active secretion from macrophages, natural killer cells, and dendritic cells. The interaction between RAGE and its ligands is thought to result in p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
