Old Briton

**Old Briton** (also called **Proto-Briton**) was a language spoken in Britain. It was the language of the Britons. By the 6th century it split into several Brittonic languages: Welsh, Cumbric, Cornish, and Breton.

## History
Old Briton is descended from Proto-Celtic, a hypothetical parent language. By the first half of the first millennium BC it was already dividing into separate dialects or languages. There is some evidence that the Pictish language may have had close ties to Old Briton and might be a fifth branch.

Evidence from Welsh shows a great influence from Latin on Old Briton during the Roman domain. This is particularly true of the Church and Christianity, which are nearly all Latin derivatives. Old Briton was replaced in most of Scotland by Old Irish. South of the Firth of Forth it was replaced by Old English. Old Briton survived into the Mid-Ages in South Scotland and Cumbria. Old Briton was gradually replaced by English throughout England. In the north of England, Cumbric disappeared as late as the 13th century. In the south, the Cornish was a dead language by the 19th century. There were some attempts to revitalize it, which have met with some success.

Capture of Samarqand

Babur wanted to recapture land Samarqand, so he attacked Shaybani Khan in 1501-6 but was defeated. In 1507 he again attempted t to capture Samarkand but failed. He got the news of defeat and death of Shaybani in the Hands-of  Ismail I of Iran. He formed an alliance with Ismail and successfully captured Tashkent, Qunduz, Hisar, Samarqand, Bukhara, Farghana, Kabul and Ghazni... His victory was short lived as Ubaid-Ulahb Khan defeated him and recovered almost all land.

For years, he wandered with only a few hundred followers. He briefly regained Farghana in 1498 but lost it again in 1500. In 1501, Babur took Samarqand from the Uzbek ruler Shaibani Khan, but Shaibani Khan defeated him in 1502, forcing Babur to leave again.

Babur settled in Afghanistan but still wanted to reclaim Samarquand, his ancestral homeland. In 1507, he visited his cousins in Herat, hoping for help to defeat his enemy, Shaibani Khan, but returned disappointed.

In 1510, Babur learned that Shaibani Khan had been killed in battle by Shah Ismail of Iran. Babur then took Samarquand, Bukhara, and Khurasan with Shah Ismail’s help. His kingdom grew to include Tashkent, Qunduz, Hisar, Samarquand, Bukhara, Farghana, Kabul, and Ghazni. But after Shah Ismail left, the Uzbegs returned and defeated Babur in 1512. Babur was forced to retreat to Kabul.

One reason for his defeat was his adoption of Shia Islam, which angered the Sunni people of Trans-Oxiana. Babur gave up on ruling Samarquand and kept only Badakhshan, which he gave to his cousin. As king of Kabul, he had to deal with constant rebellions and collect taxes from the Afghan people.

Ectopoglossus isthminus

***Ectopoglossus isthminus*** is a frog.  It lives in Panama.

## Body
Scientists caught a few frogs before 2012. The adult male frogs were 19–21 mm long from nose to rear end and one adult female frog was 23 mm long. The skin of the frog's back is brown in color with darker brown patterns. There are small, light yellow spots in the places where the four legs meet the body.  The belly is light blue in color with some dark color.

## Name
The scientists named the frog *isthminus* because it lives on the isthmus of Panama. An isthmus is a piece of land that connects two other pieces of land. Panama connects North American with South America.

## Home
This frog lives in near streams in forests in the Chargas area in Panama. Scientists saw the frog between 150 and 810 meters above sea level.

Most of these frogs live in one protected park: Chagres National Park.

## Danger
Scientists say this frog is in danger of dying out. Scientists think that the fungal disease chytridiomycosis may have killed many of these frogs, but they have not tested the frog for the fungus yet.

Mughal Conquest of Odisha

In 1590, Man Singh, the governor of Bihar, invaded Orissa to attack Qutulu Khan Lohani, who had declared himself the ruler of the region. However, Qutulu Khan died before he could fight Man Singh. His son, Nisar Khan, initially resisted but then surrendered and was allowed to remain as governor. Two years later, Nisar Khan broke the agreement, took control of the crown lands in Puri (including the Jagannath temple), and rebelled.  Man Singh defeated Nisar Khan, expelled him, and made Orissa part of the Bengal province in the Mughal Empire.
## Battle
In 1590, Qutlu Khan Lohani, an officer under Daud, the Sultan of Bengal, declared his independence and adopted the title of "Qutlu Shah." In response, Raja Man Singh, the Mughal governor of Bihar, launched an expedition against him. However, before Man Singh could engage him, Qutlu Shah died. His son, Nasir Khan, quickly submitted to Mughal authority, paying homage to Man Singh on 15 August 1590. Nasir Khan was then appointed as the governor of Odisha and signed a treaty that ceded the region around Puri to the Mughals.

For the next two years, Nasir Khan remained loyal to the Mughal Empire, but he soon violated the treaty by laying siege to the Jagannath Temple in Puri. In retaliation, Man Singh launched an attack and decisively defeated Nasir Khan in a battle near the modern-day town of Midnapore on 18 April 1592. By 1593, Odisha was fully incorporated into the Mughal Empire as part of the Bengal Subah.

Mughal Conquest of Sindh

In 1574, Akbar took control of the island fortress of Bhakkar and aimed to conquer the southern part of Sind, near the mouth of the Indus River. He wanted this area to complete his dominance over north-western India and use it as a base for attacking Kandahar, which was under Shah Abbas of Persia.

In 1590, Akbar appointed Abdur Rahman (Khan Khana) as the governor of Multan and tasked him with capturing the principality of Thatta in lower Sindh, ruled by Mirza Jani Beg. After two battles, Mirza Jani Beg was defeated and forced to surrender his land, including the forts of Thatta and Sehwan, in 1591. He then joined Akbar’s service as a mansabdar with a rank of 3,000 and became a member of the Din Ilahi.

## Battle
The Arghuns tried to keep good relations with the Mughals by claiming they shared a common ancestry, but Emperor Akbar (r. 1556-1605) refused any marriage alliances with them. In 1586, the Mughal governor of Bakhar, Nawab Sadiq Khan, laid siege to Sehwan, but Jani Beg, the Tarkhan ruler, used his boats to cut off the Mughal army's supplies, forcing them to retreat. Despite this victory, Akbar wanted to control the Tarkhans, so in 1589-90, he sent Abd al-Rahim Khan-i-Khanan to conquer Qandahar. Jani Beg raised an army of local tribes and hired European mercenaries to help defend his land, holding off the Mughal army for two years, even after losing his father Muhammad Paynda and son Abu'l Fath in battle.

In 1592, Jani Beg was forced to surrender to Khan-i-Khanan, ending Tarkhan rule in Sindh. Akbar rewarded Jani Beg by promoting him to a higher military rank. After Jani Beg's death in 1600, his son Ghazi Beg took over. Sindh was later reorganized by the Mughals into a province with several districts, and Thatta was ruled by different governors until 1737.

Mughal wars in Deccan

The Mughal Conquest of Deccan are a number of Millitary Engagements between Ahmadnagar Sultanate and Mughal Empire. Mughal emperor Jahangir sent his army towards Deccan to subdue Ahmednagar Sultanate commanders Malik Ambar and his Maratha lieutenants who recapture the area captured during the reign of Akbar in 1605. Initially Man Singh along with Khan-i-Khana, Bharju Rathore, Ramadas Kachhwa and Pheroz Jung were sent but they failed and were compelled to retreat to Buharanpur. Hostiles were continued from 1612  in 1617 Emperor sent peace truce to Malik Ambar, Malik Ambar realising that they were outnumbered by Mughals accepted the treaty.

Soon after the treaty Malik Ambar again started his activities even attacking Shah Jahan who locked himself in the Fort of Ahmadnagar. Marathas of Malik Ambar went as far as Mandu. But Jahangir himself with his commadars like Jai Singh I and Dadu Rao Chandrawat attacked them at Khirki, Shahaji tackled them and defend his army even killing Dadu Rao Chandrawat but he had to retreat due to the outnumbered Army of Mughals. In 1621 Peace treaty was signed between Mughals and Ahmadnagar were Malik Ambar ceded the territories captured after 1617 and becoming their tributaries for a brief period however Mughals weren't able to capture Deccan as they planned out.

In 1611, the Mughals tried to surround Ahmadnagar from multiple directions, but their plan failed when one commander, Abdulla Khan, rushed ahead and was defeated by Ambar’s forces. Jahangir replaced Abdulla Khan with Khan Khana, but the Mughals continued to struggle.

In 1616, Jahangir sent his son Prince Khurram (later Shah Jahan) to lead the Dakhin campaign. Khurram forced Malik Ambar into a peace deal in 1617, and Ambar gave up some land to the Mughals. However, this was more of a temporary truce, and Ambar quickly formed an alliance with Bijapur and Golkonda to attack again.

In 1621, Shah Jahan finally defeated Ambar and signed a peace treaty with the Dakhin states, who agreed to pay tribute to the Mughals. This boosted Shah Jahan’s reputation.

However, Shah Jahan’s rise to power was helped by the death of his older brother, Prince Khusrav, whom he had secretly killed in 1621. Shah Jahan reported that Khusrav died of illness, and Jahangir did nothing about it, allowing Shah Jahan to become the next in line for the throne.

Type 73 light machine gun

The **Type 73** is a North Korean light machine gun which is used by the Korean People's Army. It was designed and manufactured by the First Machine Industry Bureau of North Korea. 

Due to the North Korean government's policy of secrecy, information on the weapon is hard to obtain. One example has been acquired by South Korea. Apparently the North Korean military was not satisfied with the weapon, so around 1982 they developed the Type 82 machine gun, which is a copy of the PKM. This appears to have replaced the Type 73 in frontline service, as it has rarely seen use since the early 1980s, although it may have been kept in reserve or assigned to militias. It was exported to the Middle East via Iran, and has been used in conflicts such as the Iran-Iraq War, the Syrian Civil War, the Yemeni Civil War. 

The design of the Type 73 is based on the Soviet PK machine gun of the 1960s, but has local modifications, such as a dual magazine/belt feed, inspired by the Czechoslovak Vz.52 machine gun. 

This machine gun uses 7.62×54mmR ammunition, fed by a curved 30-round magazine that is inserted above, or by an ammunition belt. It is gas operated. It has a rate of fire of 600 to 700 rounds per minute. Its weight is 10.6 kg. One unusual feature is a special barrel attachment to enable the gun to fire rifle grenades.
2024 Khazanah-FashionValet investment issue

The **Khazanah-FashionValet investment issue** became public on 29 October 2024, after Malaysia's Ministry of Finance said in Parliament that government-owned companies, Khazanah Nasional and Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB), lost RM43.9 million, which is about USD 10.74 million when they sold their shares in the online store FashionValet. The company was started by Vivy Yusof and her husband, Fadzaruddin Shah Anuar. The two groups had thought their shares were worth RM47 million but sold them for only RM3.1 million. This caused anger among people and led to calls for the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate.

## Background 
FashionValet was started to sell a mix of local and international clothing brands. Later, the company made its brands, dUCK and Lilit, which focused on modest clothing. Reports show that FashionValet lost money every year from 2012 to 2017, with losses going from RM166,793 in 2012 to RM10.7 million in 2017. In 2018, FashionValet paid RM95 million to buy 30 Maple Sdn Bhd, which owned the dUCK brand.

Khazanah and PNB invested a total of RM47 million in FashionValet to help support a local business. NXBT Partners paid about US $1.1 million for over half of the company’s shares. Financial records showed that by the end of 2023, FashionValet's losses reached RM127.6 million. On 4 November 2024, MACC took documents from the Ministry of Finance, Khazanah, PNB, and FashionValet's offices.

MACC is now looking into business transactions between FashionValet and 30 Maple Sdn Bhd from 2018 to 2023 to check for possible misuse of funds. Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil asked for answers from Khazanah, PNB, and FashionValet.

On 1 November 2024, Yusof and Fadzaruddin left their jobs at FashionValet. Yusof expressed regret for the loss and said their choice would let FashionValet try new plans. Some critics said that resigning was a way to avoid responsibility. FashionValet director Aireen Omar defended the company, saying the loss was due to COVID-19 and not because of fraud.

Many government leaders called for better rules to manage public funds invested in companies. Some said that resigning was not enough when large public funds were lost. 

On November 7, 2024, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) said it will check how Khazanah and PNB lost money in FashionValet. The PAC wants to know how they decided to give money to the company and if anything went wrong. Many public voices have called for more control and rules to prevent similar losses in the future when state-owned funds invest in businesses. They say that careful steps should be taken when using public funds, especially in high-risk companies.

Former Deputy Public Prosecutor Liyana Marzuki said that leaving the company was not enough, calling it a way to avoid facing the problem. She said those in charge should answer for the company's losses.

Proto-Norse language

**Proto-Norse** or **Proto-Nordic** was an Indo-European language spoken in Scandinavia that is thought to have diverged from Proto-Germanic sometime between 200 BC and 200. It was spoken until ca 800, when it evolved into Old Norse.
 
There is a corpora of ca 200 runic inscriptions of which the earliest are from ca 200. The inscription found on the Gallehus horn is the most famous example and comes from the 5th century. It reads *Ek hlewagastir holtijar horna tawido* (I Leeguest of Holt made the horn) and it would in Old Norse have been *Ek Hlégestr hyltir táða horn*. The R was a sound special to Proto-Norse, which evolved and disappeared, derived from the phoneme *z*; It was pronounced like Czech *&#345;*.
 
Some Proto-Norse names are found in latin works such as tribal names e.g. *Suiones* (Swedes).
