# Minbu Township

Minbu Township (Burmese: မင်းဘူး မြို့နယ်) is a township of Minbu District in the Magway Region of Myanmar. The principal town is Minbu.
The township is home to the Shwe Settaw Pagoda, which holds an annual pagoda festival from the fifth waning day of Tabodwe to the Burmese New Year, attracting 100,000 pilgrims nationwide.

## Geology

Rocks belonging to the Pegu Group, dated to Paleogene and Neogene times, are well-exposed in the western part of Minbu Township, where they form the western margin of the Minbu Basin and the Prome Embayment. This margin extends from the western part of Pakokku District south through Minbu Township and then into Mindon Township to the south.$^{:262}$
The two main geological formations in the Pegu Group in this area are the Pyawbwe Formation and the Okhmintaung Formation. The Pyawbwe Formation, which is dated to Neogene times, makes up the upper layer. Below that is the Okhmintaung Formation, which is dated to Paleogene times. An unconformity (specifically a disconformity) separates these two layers; it consists of erosional surface contact between them. Both formations are well-exposed in a stream north of the village of Pyawbwe and along the Mann Chaung stream between the villages of Uyin and Kodaung.$^{:262–4}$
The Okhmintaung Formation generally consists of massive- to thick-bedded sandstone, with lesser amounts of siltstone, thin conglomeratic sandstone, and thin-bedded mudstone. Fossils of gastropods and shell fragments are found in the sandstone bed. In the upper part of the Okhmintaung Formation, there are features like evaporites and gypsum.$^{:262}$
The Pyawbwe Formation primarily consists of shale, which is poorly bedded and relatively soft and ranges from grey to bluish-grey in colour. Thick-bedded sandy shale is intercalated in this formation and ranges from grey to yellowish in colour. The lower part of the Pyawbwe Formation is mainly composed of relatively harder grey to brownish-grey shale, which is intercalated with thin-bedded, fine-grained, yellowish-grey sandstone.$^{:263}$
Based on the unconformity between the Okhmintaung and Pyawbwe Formations, and the absence of certain nannoplankton fossils in these rocks, it seems that the sea receded in the Minbu area at the end of the Paleogene, which is consistent with the general theory of a global drop in sea levels at that time. Sea levels then rose and submerged the area again in the Neogene.$^{:267}$
Based on fossils found in the Okhmintaung and Pyawbwe Formations, it seems that the Minbu area was a shallow marine shelf environment in Paleogene and Neogene times. In particular, the algae family Braarudosphaeraceae is an especially prominent indicator of near-shore conditions. Sandstone deposits in the Okhmintaung Formation likely represent tidal channel deposits, while intercalated mudstone and sandstone deposits inn the Pyawbwe Formations likely represent a sub-tidal environment.$^{:269}$

# Delyun-Uran Range

The Delyun-Uran Range (Russian: Делюн-Уранский хребет, romanized: Delyun-Uranskiy khrebet) is a mountain range in Irkutsk Oblast and Buryatia, Russia, part of the Stanovoy Highlands.
The nearest airport is Bodaybo Airport.

## History

This remote mountain area was first explored by Peter Kropotkin and Ivan Polyakov during the 1866 Olyokma-Vitim expedition of the East Siberian branch of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society. Kropotkin named the range after the area of conspicuous rapids of the Vitim river in the gorge where it crosses the range northwards (Делюн-Уранский порог). He described the range as a "desolate, gloomy place".
The Vitim Nature Reserve was established in the eastern part of the range and neighboring mountainous areas in 1982.

## Geography

This mountain range is located in the Baikal Rift Zone and it is part of the Baikal-Stanovoy Region. The Delyun-Uran is the northernmost subrange of the Stanovoy Highlands. It runs roughly parallel to the Northern Muya Range just north of it. The range stretches from southwest to northeast for about 350 km from the Churo River, a tributary of the upper course of the Upper Angara river, to lake Nichatka.
The gorges of the Vitim River are located in the eastern section, dividing the upper course of the Vitim from its lower basin. The western section of the range is in Buryatia and the eastern in Irkutsk Oblast. A small part at the eastern end is in Zabaykalsky Krai. The Vitim crosses the range in its northeastern part. The highest point of the range is a 2,337 metres (7,667 ft) high peak located between the Upper Angara sources and the Mamakan uppermost reaches.
A rare, exposed argillite outcrop is found in the range.

### Hydrography

River Upper Angara, flowing into Lake Baikal, originates in the slopes of the range. The Mamakan cuts across the range. Lake Oron is located south of the eastern section of the range.

## Flora

The slopes of the range are mainly covered with mountain taiga, with pre-alpine woodland and mountain tundra at higher elevations.

# The Future of Culture in Egypt

The Future of Culture in Egypt (Arabic: مستقبل الثقافه في مصر) is a 1938 book by the Egyptian writer Taha Hussein.
The book is a work of Egyptian nationalism advocating both independence and the adoption of various European modes of behaviour and institutions such as a strong military. The book was written some time after the granting of Egyptian independence by the British in 1922 but while there remained considerable British influence. Independence was furthered by the nationalisation of the Suez Canal by Egypt in 1956, a move recommended by Hussein in the book.
Hussein stressed the shared heritage of the Mediterranean civilization and Egypt's connections with European culture over its relationship with the Middle East. It opposed the Arab nationalist view of unity among all Arabic-speaking nations. The question is still debated.
He also talked of the need to improve Egyptian education.
    ... I see Egypt responding to my plea for ever greater efforts to banish ignorance from her midst and provide everyone—rich and poor, strong and weak, keen and dull, young and old—with his portion of knowledge. The delights of learning will permeate their soul and its light will illuminate every dwelling from castle to hovel. A new life and a new energy will infuse Egypt and will turn her into a veritable paradise on earth.

# Owrazan

Owrazan (Persian: اورازان, also Romanized as Owrāzān, Āvrāzān, and Ūrāzān; also known as Deh-e Avrāzān and Durasān) is a village in Bala Taleqan Rural District, in the Central District of Taleqan County, Alborz Province, Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 208, in 76 families.
Prominent Iranian novelist Jalal Al-e-Ahmad documented life and culture in Owrazan in his 1954 monograph 'Owrazan':
   Owrazan is one of several thousand Persian villages where ploughing is done in a primitive way, and the villagers often fight over the water supply and are deprived of public baths and sufficient supply of sugar for their tea. The ensuing notes have been taken almost at random during my six visits to the village and stay of not less than 12 months there. They form, therefore, neither a travel book nor a study of dialectology or folklore.
