Vahan Cardashian, the former Consul of the Ottoman Empire in Washington. Many prominent American and Allied leaders including James W. Gerard, the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Charles Evans Hughes (later appointed Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme
Born in the city of Caesarea (now Kayseri), Ottoman Empire on December 1, 1882 or 1883, Cardashian studied in the local French lyceum and Talas American College. He emigrated to the United States in 1902. He got accepted at Yale University in 1904[3] and earned a Law degree
in 1908. In the same year, he wrote a book entitled The Ottoman Empire of the Twentieth Century.[4] Cardashian entered the New York State Bar Association in 1909 and began practicing law.[3] In 1913, he was the Fiscal Agent of the Ottoman Empire in the United States. Prior
to the Armenian Genocide of 1915, he served as a counselor and statistician to the Ottoman Chamber of Commerce in America. He was a counselor for the Ottoman Embassy in Washington, D.C. and then to the Ottoman Consulate General in New York from 1910 to 1915. He authored several
books on the Armenian Question.[6] Some authors claim otherwise, but in his 1934 obituary, it's stated that Cardashian was survived by his sister, mother and brother.
Kardashian was relatively unknown before the tape's release. She was mainly known as the daughter of Robert Kardashian, who served as O. J. Simpson's defense attorney during Simpson's 1995 murder trial. Kardashian was also known as a friend and personal stylist for Paris Hilton
after Kardashian appeared in four episodes of Hilton's show, The Simple Life, from 2003 to 2006. Kardashian met Ray J in 2002 while working as a personal stylist to his sister, Brandy Norwood.[1]
In December 2018, Kardashian admitted that she had been on the drug ecstasy (MDMA)
while filming the tape. As a teenager, Kardashian briefly attended Marymount High School, a Roman Catholic all-girls' school in Los Angeles. She left the high school and enrolled in Alexandria Academy, an alternative one-to-one school, after her sisters' graduations, later
saying "there was no reason for me to stay" since she "felt like I didn't have any friends." She graduated with honors a year early at age 17.[13][14][15] Before her family reality TV show, Kardashian worked as Nicole Richie's assistant. Richie's godmother is Nancy Davis,
daughter of Marvin Davis and mother of Brandon Davis.[16] Michael Jackson was Richie's honorary uncle.[17] Quincy Jones said in a People magazine interview that he has "known Nicole Richie since she was a baby. She's a very smart girl".[18]
Richie graduated from Montclair
College Preparatory School in 1999, then attended the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona, alongside Kourtney Kardashian and Luke Walton, where she studied Arts and Media. She did not have a definitive study plan in Arizona, dropped out after two years, and returned to
California. She attended Marymount High School, a Roman Catholic all-girls school in Los Angeles. Following graduation, she moved to Dallas, Texas, to attend Southern Methodist University for two years. Kardashian then lived in Tucson, Arizona, where she graduated from the
University of Arizona with a bachelor's degree in Theatre Arts and a minor in Spanish. Her classmates included Nicole Richie and Luke Walton.
Root was the founding chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations, established in 1918 in New York. According to McCoy, Root devoted his time as Secretary of State and as a Senator to ensuring that the United States would have a consistent presence in world affairs, and Root
helped to establish the Special Relationship between the United States and Great Britain. McCoy uncovered drug trafficking methods for heroin and opium throughout Southeast Asia and to American troops stationed there by high-ranking government officials: Commander Ouane
Rattikone and General Vang Pao (Laos); and President Nguyễn Văn Thiệu and General Đăng Văn Quang (Vietnam). McCoy also cited their ties with the Mafia, namely a visit to Saigon in 1968 by Santo Trafficante Jr.. Senator Gale W. McGee dismissed the allegations and accused McCoy
McCarthyism, which was immediately rebutted. Senator Proxmire requested additional evidence and documentation to which McCoy responded his forthcoming book on the topic would serve as such. In that same year, McCoy's book, The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia, was
published by Harper and Row. He restated that the Central Intelligence Agency was knowingly involved in the trade of heroin in the Golden Triangle.

Louis Bastien (Esperantist) - Wikipedia

In the belief that this fever (now known as malaria) was waterborne, soldiers were ordered to drink only boiled water.

It was not till three years later that Sir Ronald Ross conclusively determined that the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Bas…
cause of malaria is a parasite transmitted by the Anopheles mosquito.

In 2016, a CRISPR-Cas9 gene drive system was proposed to eradicate Anopheles gambiae, by deleting the dsx gene, causing female sterility.

Doublesex (dsx) is a gene that is involved in the sex determination
system of many insects including the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
