Amir Qazaghan

Qazaghan (died 1358) was the amir of the Qara'unas (1345 at the latest – 1358) and the effective ruler of the Chagatai ulus (1346–1358). The following opinions were expressed about the ethnic origin of the Qazaghan: 1) Vasily Bartold wrote that Qazaghan is very likely from the Kauchin tribe; he believed that the Kauchins were a Turkisized Mongol tribe; 2) In his other early work, Bartold called Qazaghan a Turkic emir.Qazaghan's lineage is mostly unknown; it is possible that he became head of the Qara'unas through appointment instead of inheritance In 1345 he rebelled against his sovereign, the Chagatai Khan Qazan, but was defeated. The following year he tried again and succeeded in killing the khan. Qazan's death signified the end of the effective power of the Chagatai khans within the ulus; subsequent khans were rulers in name only. Qazaghan, in the interest of maintaining an image of legitimacy, contented himself with his title of amir and conferred the title of khan on descendants of Genghis Khan of his own choosing: first Danishmendji (1346–1348) and then Bayan Quli (1348–1358). During the twelve years that Qazaghan served as the power behind the throne, the khanate devolved into a loose confederation of tribes that respected the overall authority of Qazaghan and his puppet khans, although he primarily commanded the loyalty of the tribes of the southern portion of the ulus. Following the example of the khans before him, Qazaghan raided northern India. He also sent several thousand troops to aid the Sultan of Delhi, Muhammad bin Tughluq, against.

Bell AH-1 Cobra

The Bell AH-1 Cobra is a single-engined attack helicopter developed and manufactured by the American rotorcraft manufacturer Bell Helicopter. A member of the prolific Huey family, the AH-1 is also referred to as the HueyCobra or Snake. The AH-1 was developed using the engine, transmission and rotor system of the Bell UH-1 Iroquois, which had proven itself to be a capable platform during the Vietnam War. It was produced in response to fulfil a need for a dedicated armed escort for transport helicopters to give the latter greater survivability in contested environments. Accordingly, the AH-1 was a dedicated attack helicopter, featuring a tandem cockpit, stub wings for weapons, and a chin-mounted gun turret. The first examples of the type entered service with the United States Army during 1967; other branches of the US military also opted to acquire the type, particularly the United States Marine Corps, while export sales were made to numerous overseas countries, including Israel, Japan, and Turkey. For several decades, the AH-1 formed the core of the US Army's attack helicopter fleet, seeing combat in Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, and Iraq. In US Army service, the Cobra was progressively replaced by the newer and more capable Boeing AH-64 Apache during the 1990s, with the final examples being withdrawn during 2001. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) operated the Cobra most prolifically along its land border with Lebanon, using its fleet intensively during the 1982 Lebanon War. Turkish AH-1s have seen regular combat with Kurdish insurgents near Turkey's southern borders. Upgraded versions of the Cobra have.

Antaeotricha anaclintris

Antaeotricha anaclintris is a species of moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in French Guiana.The wingspan is 22–23 mm. The forewings are whitish, more or less tinged with fuscous except towards the costa and with a blackish or dark purplish-fuscous elongate patch extending along the basal third of the dorsum, reaching the costa at the base. There is an irregular interrupted fuscous line from one-fifth of the costa to the dorsum just beyond this, darkest on the costa, sometimes obsolete dorsally. A blackish-fuscous transverse dot is found on the end of the cell and there is a curved irregular fuscous shade from the costa beyond the middle to three-fourths of the dorsum, as well as a fuscous spot on the costa at three-fourths, and a rather curved fuscous shade from beneath this to the dorsum before the tornus. A waved cloudy dark fuscous line is found just within the apical edge. The hindwings are grey, the basal half suffused with whitish and the costa expanded from the base to two-thirds, with long rough projecting hairscales suffused with rather dark fuscous beneath, and a moderate whitish subcostal hairpencil from the base lying in an ochreous groove concealed by the forewings.

White Collar-2 protein

The white collar--2 (wc-2) gene in Neurospora crassa encodes the protein White Collar-2 (WC-2). WC-2 is a GATA transcription factor necessary for blue light photoreception and for regulating circadian rhythms in Neurospora. In both contexts, WC-2 binds to its non-redundant counterpart White Collar-1 (WC-1) through PAS domains to form the White Collar Complex (WCC), an active transcription factor.The WCC has two major and distinct roles in the cell. In the light, the WCC acts as a photoreceptor to mediate acute regulation of light-induced genes involved in various physiological processes such as carotenoid (type of pigment) biosynthesis and conidiation. In a separate and distinct role in the dark, WCC acts as the positive element in the autoregulatory transcription-translation negative feedback loop that controls circadian rhythmic behaviors in Neurospora. In this context, WCC regulates expression of the Frequency (FRQ) gene, a light-induced clock protein.

2017 Serbian presidential election

Presidential elections were held in Serbia on 2 April 2017. Incumbent president Tomislav Nikolić was eligible to run for a second five-year term, but opted not to do so. Prime Minister Aleksandar Vučić was elected president in the first round. The election was marred by accusations of voter intimidation and a near total domination of the Serbian media by Vučić and his party. Following the announcement of the results, protests were held across Serbia against Vučić's victory. The OSCE have announced that there are reports of pressure on employees of state and state-affiliated institutions to support Vučić and secure, in a cascade fashion, support from subordinate employees, family members, and friends. The OSCE report noted that general reluctance of media to report critically on or to challenge the governing authorities significantly reduced the amount of impartial information available to voters, that all private national television channels displayed preferential treatment towards Vučić in their news programmes, and that public resources were used in support of Vučić, including endorsements and favourable articles in municipal information material. The European Commission stated in its Serbia 2018 report that the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media had failed to address imbalances in media coverage during the presidential campaign. The Associated Press and Reporters Without Borders reported that Aleksandar Vučić, the candidate of the governing coalition, had ten times more airtime on national broadcasters than all other candidates combined and that mainstream media under Vučić's control have been demonizing most of the opposition presidential candidates, without giving them the opportunity to respond. This.
