Arses Of Persia
Arses (; ), also known by his regnal name Artaxerxes IV (; ; ), was the twelfth Achaemenid King of Kings from 338 to 336 BC. Arses ascended the throne, after his father Artaxerxes III—who had caused a resurgence of the Persian Empire—was poisoned by the eunuch Bagoas. The latter put Arses on the throne with the expectation of being able to control him. With the weakening of the Achaemenid Empire from the assassination of Artaxerxes III and the succession of Arses, the Greek league sent troops into Asia in 336. Arses, in an attempt to free himself from Bagoas' influences, tried to have the eunuch poisoned; but did not succeed, instead succumbing to poison himself at the orders of Bagoas. Bagoas put Arses' cousin Darius III on the throne after him. Name He is known as in Greek sources and that seems to have been his real name, but the Xanthus trilingue and potsherds from Samaria report that he took the royal name of Artaxerxes IV, following his father and grandfather. i ...

''Arses'' is a genus of monarch flycatchers in the family Monarchidae. The genus is restricted to forest and secondary forest, second growth on the island of New Guinea, a few surrounding islands and northern Queensland, Australia. The genus is separated by their frilled necks, fleshy blue eye wattles and delicate pendent nests. They also have a distinctive foraging technique, hopping up tree trunks in a spiral fashion. Taxonomy The genus ''Arses'' was introduced by the French naturalist René Lesson in 1831. The type species was subsequently designated as the frilled monarch (''Arses telescopthalmus'') by English zoologist George Robert Gray in 1840. The genus name is from the Persian king Arses of Persia, Arses who ruled from 338 until 336 BC.

Buttocks
The buttocks (: buttock) are two rounded portions of the exterior anatomy of most mammals, located on the posterior of the pelvic region. In humans, the buttocks are located between the lower back and the perineum. They are composed of a layer of exterior skin and underlying subcutaneous fat superimposed on a left and right gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles. The two gluteus maximus muscles are the largest muscles in the human body. They are responsible for movements such as straightening the body into the upright (standing) posture when it is bent at the waist; maintaining the body in the upright posture by keeping the hip joints extended; and propelling the body forward via further leg (hip) extension when walking or running. In many cultures, the buttocks play a role in sexual attraction. Many cultures have also used the buttocks as a primary target for corporal punishment, as the buttocks' layer of subcutaneous fat offers protection against injury while still ...

Arylsulfatase L
Arylsulfatase L is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the ''ARSL'' gene. Function Arylsulfatase L is a member of the arylsulfatase subfamily of sulfatase enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate esters. It is glycosylated postranslationally and localized to the golgi apparatus The Golgi apparatus (), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic Cell (biology), cells.

The Plague Dogs (novel)
''The Plague Dogs'' is a novel by English author Richard Adams, first published in 1977 by Allen Lane. The book centres around the friendship of two dogs that escape an animal testing facility and are subsequently pursued by both the government and the media. As in Adams' debut novel, ''Watership Down'' (1972), the animal characters in ''The Plague Dogs'' are anthropomorphised. ''The Plague Dogs'' features location maps drawn by Alfred Wainwright, a fellwalker and author. The conclusion of the book involves two real-life characters, Adams' long-time friend Ronald Lockley, and the world-famous naturalist Sir Peter Scott. Having seen a manuscript, both men readily agreed to be identified with the characters and opinions that Adams had attributed to them, as is shown in Adams' preface to the book. In 1982, ''The Plague Dogs'' was adapted into an animated feature film of the same name. Plot This book tells of the escape of two dogs, Rowf and Snitter, from a government researc ...

Autonomous Rotorcraft Sniper System
The Autonomous Rotorcraft Sniper System (ARSS) was an experimental robotic weapons system that was in development by the U.S. Army since 2005, but no information about the status of the system has been made public since 2010. The ARSS consisted of a remotely operated sniper rifle attached to an unmanned autonomous helicopter. It was intended for use in urban combat or for several other missions requiring snipers. Flight tests were scheduled to begin in Summer 2009. The rifle, a semiautomatic RND Manufacturing Edge 2000 firing the .338 Lapua Magnum cartridge, was mounted on a stabilized platform, which was attached to the underside of a Vigilante 502 UAV. The helicopter was to be flown by an autopilot while a human controller aims and fires the rifle, which may fire up to ten well-aimed shots per minute. The rifle platform, called the ''Precision Weapons Platform'' (PWP), was designed by Utah State University’s Space Dynamics Laboratory and was equipped with a situational aw ...
