Tenth of Tevet
Tenth of Tevet  (Hebrew: י' בטבת), or Asarah BeTevet (pronounced [a.saˈra be.teˈvet]; עשרה בטבת), is the tenth day of the Hebrew month of Tevet and a fast day (Ta'anit) in Judaism. It is the only minor  fast observed even on the Friday preceding Shabbat (Erev Shabbat)—on which fasting is typically prohibited—from before dawn to nightfall (or Kiddush); other fast days are postponed until Shabbat ends. The fast mourns the 587 BCE siege of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylonia—an event that began on Tevet 10 and culminated in the destruction of Solomon's Temple (i.e., the First Temple), the downfall of the Kingdom of Judah, and the Babylonian exile of the Judeans.

The fast day is not usually thought to be related to Hanukkah, but it falls a week after the end of that festival. Whether the 10th of Tevet occurs seven or eight days after the last day of Hanukkah depends on whether the preceding Hebrew month of Kislev has 29 or 30 days in the given Hebrew year.

Cysteine
Cysteine (/ˈsɪstɪiːn/; symbol Cys or C) is a semiessential proteinogenic amino acid with the formula HS−CH2−CH(NH2)−COOH. The thiol side chain in cysteine enables the formation of disulfide bonds, and often participates in enzymatic reactions as a nucleophile. Cysteine is chiral, but both D and L-cysteine are found in nature. L‑Cysteine is a protein monomer in all biota, and D-cysteine acts as a signaling molecule in mammalian nervous systems. Cysteine is named after its discovery in urine, which comes from the urinary bladder or cyst, from Greek κύστις kýstis, "bladder".

The thiol is susceptible to oxidation to give the disulfide derivative cystine, which serves an important structural role in many proteins. In this case, the symbol Cyx is sometimes used. The deprotonated form can generally be described by the symbol Cym as well.

When used as a food additive, cysteine has the E number E920.

Cysteine is encoded by the codons UGU and UGC.

Asparagine
Asparagine (symbol Asn or N) is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH+3 form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO− form under biological conditions), and a side chain carboxamide, classifying it as a polar (at physiological pH), aliphatic amino acid. It is non-essential in humans, meaning the body can synthesize it. It is encoded by the codons AAU and AAC.

The one-letter symbol N for asparagine was assigned arbitrarily, with the proposed mnemonic asparagiNe;
Azerbaijanis

Variations of the sedan style include the close-coupled sedan, club sedan, convertible sedan, fastback sedan, hardtop sedan, notchback sedan, and sedanet.
