Johann_Georg_von_Brandenburg
|
Johann Georg -LSB- John George -RSB- von Brandenburg -LRB- 16 December 1577 -- 2 March 1624 -RRB- was a German nobleman and Protestant ecclesiastic in the Holy Roman Empire . He was the administrator -LRB- bishop -RRB- of Strasbourg from 1592 until 1604 and the Duke of Jägerndorf -LRB- Krnov -RRB- , one of the Silesian duchies , from 1607 until 1624 . Born at Wolmirstedt , Johann Georg was the second son of Elector Joachim Friedrich of Brandenburg and Katharina von Brandenburg-Küstrin . Like all male members of his family , he held the title Margrave of Brandenburg as a courtesy title . With his brother Johann Sigismund , he was sent to study at the University of Strasbourg in 1588 . There the brothers , both Lutherans , came under the influence of Calvinist teaching . Following the death of Bishop Johann von Manderscheid , the Protestant majority in the chapter of the diocese of Strasbourg elected the 15-year-old Johann Georg to administer the diocese on 20 May 1592 . This decision was designed to unite Protestants across Germany behind them . The Catholic minority elected Cardinal Charles of Lorraine in opposition to Johann . There followed twelve years ' of war in Strasbourg . It was finally ended by the Treaty of Haguenau of 22 November 1604 . Johann ceded the diocese to Charles and received compensation in return . In 1607 , Johann Georg 's father granted him the Duchy of Jägerndorf , which had belonged to the late Georg Friedrich of Ansbach . The Emperor Rudolf II , in whose Kingdom of Bohemia the Duchy of Jägerndorf lay , refused to admit Johann as duke and asked for Beuthen and Oderberg as pledges . His successors , Matthias and Ferdinand II , however , took the oath of fealty from Johann in 1611 and 1617 . A dispute over the pledges was not settled until 17 May 1618 , and on that date Johann 's possession of Jägerndorf became final . Johann Georg was one of the five Protestant members of the Silesian estates who joined with the Bohemian estates in demanding religious tolerance from Rudolf II on 25 June 1609 . The Silesians received the Letter of Majesty , granting the request , on 20 August . When the Thirty Years ' War broke out in 1618 , the Silesian estates joined the Bohemian in opposing the Emperor Ferdinand II . Although Johann played a relatively minor role in the military actions of the first few years , he was the only Silesian or Bohemian nobleman deposed by the victorious Ferdinand after the Battle of the White Mountain -LRB- 29 January 1621 -RRB- . He refused to accept his deposition and continued to fight with an army of mercenaries in the Neisse and Glatzer regions . He joined with the Transylvanian prince Gabriel Bethlen , elected King of Hungary in opposition to Ferdinand , and was instrumental in his military success in 1621 . In January 1622 , however , he made peace with the emperor at Nikolsburg . He remained with Gabriel Bethlen , expecting war to break out again , but died at Lőcse in Hungary before it did .

SacI_homology_domain
|
SacI homology domain is a family of evolutionarily related proteins . This Pfam family represents a protein domain which shows homology to the yeast protein SacI . The SacI homology domain is most notably found at the amino terminal of the inositol 5 ' - phosphatase synaptojanin . Synaptic vesicles are recycled with remarkable speed and precision in nerve terminals . A major recycling pathway involves clathrin-mediated endocytosis at endocytic zones located around sites of release . Different ` accessory ' proteins linked to this pathway have been shown to alter the shape and composition of lipid membranes , to modify membrane-coat protein interactions , and to influence actin polymerization . These include the GTPase dynamin , the lysophosphatidic acid acyl transferase endophilin , and the phosphoinositide phosphatase synaptojanin . The recessive suppressor of secretory defect in yeast Golgi and yeast actin function belongs to this family . This protein may be involved in the coordination of the activities of the secretory pathway and the actin cytoskeleton . Human synaptojanin which may be localised on coated endocytic intermediates in nerve terminals also belongs to this family .

Igil
|
An igil -LRB- Tuvan - игил -RRB- is a two-stringed Tuvan musical instrument , played by bowing the strings . -LRB- It is called `` ikili '' in Western Mongolia . -RRB- The neck and lute-shaped sound box are usually made of a solid piece of pine or larch . The top of the sound box may be covered with skin or a thin wooden plate . The strings , and those of the bow , are traditionally made of hair from a horse 's tail -LRB- strung parallel -RRB- , but may also be made of nylon . Like the morin khuur of Mongolia , the igil typically features a carved horse 's head at the top of the neck above the tuning pegs , and both instruments are known as the horsehead fiddle . The igil is held nearly upright when played , with the sound box of the instrument in the performer 's lap , or braced against the top of the performer 's boot . Playing technique involves touching the strings with the nails or fingertips , but without pressing them to the neck . The igil has no frets . The bow is held with an underhand grip . The igil formerly had an entire genre dedicated to it , with a repertoire of songs meant to be performed only on the igil . During the communist period in Tuva attempts were made to `` modernize '' the igil . This was nothing more than an attempt to westernize the instrument making it more like the European cello . However the instruments and playing style used by most Tuvan musicians today are largely the same as the original form of the igil . Famous players of the igil include Ak-ool Kara-sal , Kaigal-ool Khovalyg and Evgenii Saryglar .

Golem Arcana is a tabletop miniature wargaming game developed and published by Harebrained Schemes for iOS and Android devices . The game combines physical miniatures on a game board with a mobile app that much of the gameplay takes place in ; the physical pieces and the app communicate through the use of a Bluetooth stylus . Several elements of the game , including special abilities and optional missions , exist only within the app . Golem Arcana was funded through a Kickstarter campaign that launched in September 2013 and went on to raise over $ 500,000 . The game was released just under a year later , on 13 August 2014 . Both studio co-founder Jordan Weisman and executive producer Ray Winninger had extensive experience developing both video games and tabletop games , and one of their primary motivations in creating Golem Arcana was to merge the two gaming types . They also sought to create a more social experience than could be found in traditional multiplayer video games . The game received mixed reviews upon release . Critics were split in their take on the hybrid of physical pieces and the digital app , with some seeing it as a boon and others as a detriment . The game received praise for its visuals , lore , and ruleset , but also received criticism for its price .

Olga_Vinogradova
|
Professor Olga S. Vinogradova -LRB- 1929-2001 -RRB- was a specialist in Russian cognitive neuroscience . In 1969 she founded the Laboratory of Systemic Organization of Neurons in the Institute of Biological Physics , Russian Academy of Sciences -LRB- Pushchino -RRB- and headed this Laboratory till the end of her life . From the early days of her scientific career , Prof. Vinogradova was fortunate to work with prominent neuropsychologist and neuroscientists . She studied psychology under the supervision of Prof. Alexander Luria , investigated psychophysiology of the orienting reflex with Prof. Evgeny Sokolov , and learned electrophysiology from Prof. Jan Bures . On the basis of extracellular unit recording from the hippocampus and other relevant structures in awake animals during sensory and electrical stimulation , she developed a hypothesis of information processing in the limbic system . She concluded that the hippocampus is at the core of orienting reflex and works as a comparator determining whether information should be stored in memory -LRB- if it is new -RRB- or ignored -LRB- if it is old -RRB- . These ideas were developed in her books Orienting Reflex and Its Neurophysiological Mechanisms -LRB- Moskva , 1962 -RRB- and Hippocampus and Memory -LRB- Nauka , 1975 -RRB- , and later published in English as a chapter of the book Hippocampus -LRB- Plenum Press , 1984 -RRB- and the review Hippocampus as a comparator system -LRB- Hippocampus , 2001 , v. 11:578 -98 -RRB- . A significant part of Prof. Vinogradova 's scientific career was devoted to the analysis of the role of theta rhythm in hippocampal function . She and her co-workers presented evidence that the ability to generate the theta-rhythm is an intrinsic property of the medial septum nucleus and the nucleus of the diagonal band of Broca -LRB- Progr . Neurobiol . 1995 , v. 37 : 523-83 -RRB- . Prof. Vinogradova contributed extensive time and effort to support of international relations of Soviet and Russian neuroscience . In 1958 she was a member of the Organizing Committee of the Moscow Symposium of Neurobiology to which Western neuroscientists were invited to the Soviet Union for the first time . This Symposium could be considered the beginning of collaborative relations between neuroscientists from the Soviet Union and other countries . Prof. Vinogradova was an internationally influential neuroscientist . In 1979 she received the Kenneth Craik award from St. John 's College , Cambridge -LRB- UK -RRB- , for contributions to the understanding of hippocampal functions . She was a member of IBRO since its foundation and a member of the European Science Foundation and a member of the editorial board of several scientific journals . She was invited as lecturer to scientific institutions worldwide . '' '
