Maxwell Montes is a mountain massif on the planet Venus, of which a peak is the highest point on the planet's surface. Located on Ishtar Terra, the more northern of the planet's two major highlands, Maxwell Montes is 11 kilometres high, it rises about 6.4 kilometers above and to the east of Lakshmi Planum, is about 853 kilometres long by 700 kilometres wide. The western slopes are steep, whereas the eastern slopes descend into Fortuna Tessera. Due to its elevation it is the least pressurised location on the surface of Venus; the origin of the Lakshmi Planum and the mountain belts such as Maxwell Montes is controversial. One theory suggests they formed over a hot plume of material rising from the interior of the planet, while another says the region is being compressed from all sides, resulting in material descending into the interior of the planet; the broad ridges and valleys making up Maxwell Montes and Fortuna Tessera suggest that the topography resulted from compression. The parallel ridges and valleys were cut by extensional faults.

The extreme height of Maxwell Montes in relation to other compressional mountain ranges around Lakshmi Planum suggests that its origin is more complex. Most of Maxwell Montes has a bright radar return, common on Venus at high altitudes; this phenomenon is thought to result from the presence of a mineral a metallic snow. Early suggestions included tellurium. By using radar to probe through the permanent and thick clouds in the Venusian atmosphere and make observations of the surface, scientists at the American Arecibo Radio Telescope in Puerto Rico discovered the extensive highland on Venus that came to be called Maxwell Montes in 1967. In 1978, the space probe Pioneer Venus 1 went into orbit around Venus for the purpose of making radar observations of the Venusian surface; these observations made possible the creation of the first topographic map of the surface of Venus, confirmed that a point within Maxwell Montes is the highest point above the average level of the planet's surface. Maxwell Montes is named for James Clerk Maxwell whose work in mathematical physics predicted the existence of radio waves, which made radar, thus the surface observations of Venus, possible.

Maxwell Montes, Alpha Regio, Beta Regio are the three exceptions to the rule that the surface features of Venus are to be named for females. The name given by Ray Jurgens in 1970 on the urging of Tommy Gold, was approved by the International Astronomical Union's Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature between 1976 and 1979.

Bhawaiya is a musical form or a popular folk music in Northern Bangladesh Rangpur District and in Cooch Behar, part of Darjeeling and North Dinajpur district of West Bengal and Dhubri and Goalpara of Assam in India. These area were covered by Kamtapur state and so for the song Kamtapuri language is used; this folk song is sung traditionally both solo and by chorus. There are various viewpoints regarding the meaning of Bhawaiya. Low-lying land with shrub and other vegetable are called Bhawa. Buffalo keepers used to sing this song while ploughing. Hence the name Bhawaiya came to exist. According to some other researcher Bhawaiya is derived from the word Bawaiya, subsequently derived from the word bao; the derivative of the word Bhawaiya is Bhav > Bhao + Iya = Bhawaiya. So the derivative meaning of this word is charged. According to Abbas Uddin, famous singer and composer of Bhawaiya song, this song is like the random and pleasant wind blowing of North Bengal and it is named as Bhawaiya. According to a survey among the performers of Bhawaiya song the name is derived from the word Bhao> Bhav.

It has a meaning of melancholy feeling. The most dominant part of the performers are the Rajbanshi or Kamtapuri people from the North bengal and northern part of Bangladesh, but the Brahmin, Yogi, Muslim who are the resident of this area are sing this folk song. Nowadays some of the well known bhawaiya songs are adopted in Bengali Cinema as well as in some modern folk bands. Folk song is characterised by a typical tonal structure which reflects specific natural and work related factors, topographical condition and phonetic characteristic of the region; the following tonal structure is used in Bhawaiya music: S R M P D n... S R G M P n.... M P D n D n D P M... N n S R G G M G R S..... Etc.. Flattened tone of S, R, G, D, P and sharpen tone of M are not used in this folk song. Use of only flattened n is a fundamental characteristic of Bhawaiya song. Dn Dn - is one of the known tonal texture of this song. S and M are used comparatively more here; the melody of this folk song does not go beyond the middle octave.

But in some recent song specially in catka the tune goes up to the upper octave. Bhawaiya song are sung in a higher pitch. Typical voice modulation is characteristic of this folk song. Lots of microtunes are used with the main pitch for this voice modulation. Bangladeshi film director Shahneoyaj Kakolii's movie Uttarer Sur is based on the life of Bhawaiya singer, it tells about the gradual demise of this folk song from the northern part of the Bangladesh due to poverty. This movie is screened in 18th Kolkata International Film Festival. A popular Bhawaiya song is Garial Bhai: ওকি গাড়িয়াল ভাই ওকি গাড়িয়াল ভাই কত রব আমি পন্থের দিকে চায়া রে। কি কব দুস্কেরও জ্বালা গাড়িয়াল ভাই গাঁথিয়াচিকনও মালা রে। যে দিন গাড়িয়াল উজান যায়, নারীর মন মোর ঝুরিয়া রয় রে। ওকি গাড়িয়াল ভাই হাকাও গাড়ি তুই চিলমারীর বন্দরে রে।.

Prince of Wales Halt railway station was a short-lived station on the Romney and Dymchurch Railway in Kent, England. About three quarters of a mile from the Hythe terminus, in an area known as Palmarsh, the railway line and the Royal Military Canal diverge, the railway line passes under a large, double-arched, bridge carrying the road from Hythe to Lympne, it was intended to cross the road here on the level, but strenuous opposition from Hythe Borough Council led the Light Railway Commissioners to insist on a bridge, which it is said added £250 to the railway's construction cost. This bridge, the halt located here, took their names from the nearby Prince of Wales public house; the halt never had any station buildings, was a request stop for service trains, accessed by means of a steep footpath down from the road to the trackside, beside the bridge. The halt opened with the opening of the line in 1927, appearing in the timetables for the first year of operation only, before closing in 1928 due to lack of traffic.

Contemporary traffic figures, although sparse, could imply that no passenger used this tiny station. Its only historical distinctions are that it was, by a wide margin, the most short-lived, the most sparsely equipped, the most under-used station on the line
