# Battle of Delos

The battle of Delos took place during the First Mithridatic War in 88 BC. Initially an ally of the Roman Republic, Athens defected in favour of Mithridates, the king of Pontus. As the Athenian island of Delos had remained faithful to Rome, Athens sent an expeditionary force, which was crushed on the island's beach by a small Roman squadron.

## Background

In 89, the Roman general Manius Aquilius attempted an invasion of the kingdom of Pontus, located in northern Anatolia. However, the attack turned up wrong and the counter-attack of the king of Pontus, Mithridates VI Eupator, swept away the Roman forces. In a few months, Mithridates conquered the Roman province of Asia. These devlopments shook political life in Athens, where the peripatetic philosopher Athenion was sent at the head of an embassy to the Pontic king in 88. While in Asia, Athenion sent letters to his city promising that Mithridates would solve the current problems of Athens, principally debt, social issues (a slave revolt occurred a few years earlier), and the suspension of democracy. His return was like a triumph and he was elected hoplite general in the euphoria, with the power to appoint all the other magistrates. It seems that Athenion picked Mithridates as the eponymous archon, showing that Athens broke with Rome and was now on his side.
Delos was an island in the centre of the Aegean sea that belonged to Athens. It was the principal slave market of the ancient world, where many traders from Italy gathered. Under the Italians' influence, the island rejected the new alliance of its metropolis and entered in a rebellion.

## Battle

Athenion dispatched a fellow peripatetic philosopher named Apellicon of Teos at the head of an expeditionary force to quell the revolt. Apellicon is mostly known for having owned the library of Aristotle, but he had apparently no military experience. After landing on the island, the Athenians installed a camp but they did not make watchtowers or set up guards. A Roman prefect named Orbius commanding a naval squadron landed on the island and attacked the Athenian camp during the night. Taken by surprise while sleeping, most of the Athenians were killed or captured. Orbius erected a trophy on the beach and an altar celebrating his victory.
Apellicon survived and escaped to Athens, where he died in 86, as the Roman general Sulla took possession of his library after he seized Athens in 86.

## Aftermath

Victory was short-lived for the Romans on the island: soon after, a large Pontic army commanded by Archelaus arrived to Greece. Archelaus ordered his lieutenant, Menophanes, to take Delos. Meanwhile, Mithridates had also ordered the massacre of all the Italians that lived in Asia, an event known as the Asian vespers. Delos suffered the same fate and up to 20,000 Italians were slaughtered. Archelaus seized the treasures on the island and gave them to Aristion, an epicurean philosopher from his court. Aristion also received a force of 2,000 men and was sent to Athens, where he apparently replaced as tyrant Athenion, who is not mentioned in ancient sources again after the fiasco at Delos.

Baker was previously the Director and Vice President of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad and represented the 14th district in the Texas Senate for one term, from 1874 to 1876.

## Early life

There he was a bookkeeper for the Houston Town Company for about two years. Starting around 1839, he managed a general store for two years. In 1841, Baker successfully ran for County Clerk of Harris County, a position he held for 16 years.

# San Juan High School (California)

San Juan High School is an American public high school in Citrus Heights, California in the San Juan Unified School District.

## History

The community of Citrus Heights realized in 1911 that there was a need for a four-year high school in the area, and San Juan High School (then known as the Grammar School) began in a small building located in the town of Fair Oaks. In 1913, the San Juan Union High School District was organized. This district was composed of the Sylvan, Orangevale, Fair Oaks, Roberts, and San Juan Districts. 46 students were enrolled in the Grammar School during the 1913–1914 school year, of which 41 were freshmen. Dorothy Gertrude Jerauld, the first student to complete studies at the Grammar School, graduated in June 1914.
After Citrus Heights' founder Walter Trainor donated land, construction began on a new school at the current location off of Greenback Lane in 1915. An influx of students from around the Sacramento area, Folsom included, increased enrollment to 92 students. The original building was expanded in 1938, when work was completed on the "A" and "B" wings of San Juan High School, and two years later, enrollment had increased to 400 students. The older portions of the school had fallen into disrepair, but began to be used again at this time. More wings were added after World War II, and a shop and gymnasium were also added. Approximately 600 students currently attend the school.
The San Juan Alumni Association was formed in 1980 and had 1,100 dues paying members as of 2011.
# Syd Barrett (album)

Syd Barrett is a 1974 double-album pairing of Syd Barrett's two solo albums, The Madcap Laughs and Barrett, both originally released in the UK in 1970.

## Cover

During the summer of 1965, Barrett had his first acid trip in the garden of his friend Dave Gale, with Ian Moore and Storm Thorgerson. While on the influence of the substance, Barrett had placed an orange, plum and a matchbox into a corner, while staring at the fruit, which he claimed symbolized "Venus and Jupiter". Thorgerson used this imagery when he added these items to the cover of Syd Barrett.

## Release

After the unexpectedly massive success of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, EMI re-issued the Barrett-era albums The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and A Saucerful of Secrets as A Nice Pair in the hope that fans would be interested in the band's earlier work with Barrett. Once that was a success, primarily in the US, Syd Barrett was compiled to meet demand.
As a result, The Madcap Laughs/Barrett (as it was titled in the US) made number 163, giving Barrett his only US chart album. Village Voice critic Robert Christgau wrote of the album: "Admittedly, a lot of what results is worthy of the wimp-turned-acid-casualty Barrett is. But a lot of it is funny, charming, catchy--whimsy at its best... I know damn well it gives me more pleasure than The Dark Side of the Moon."

# Battle of the Buliok Complex

The Battle of the Buliok Complex took place on 11 February 2003 in an area within the provinces of Maguindanao and Cotabato in Mindanao, Philippines. The 60-hectare complex, which stretches from Pikit, Cotabato to Pagalungan, Maguindanao, was a stronghold of the Muslim separatist Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF). Accused by the Philippine government of harboring members of Pentagon, a notorious kidnap-for-ransom gang operating in Mindanao, the MILF was attacked in the Buliok complex by the Armed Forces of the Philippines under orders from then-President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.

## Background

After losing their camps, foremost of which was Camp Abubakar, due to the "all-out-war" policy of then-President Joseph Estrada in 2000, the MILF withdrew into the areas around the Liguasan Marsh. The Buliok Complex (called the Buliok Islamic Center or the Buliok Mosque by the MILF) encompasses areas where the boundaries of Maguindanao, Cotabato and Sultan Kudarat meet. It was within this complex that the MILF re-established their presence.

## The battle

The Philippine government commenced military operations against the MILF on the day Eid al-Adha was being celebrated, tactically reasoning that the MILF forces would be vulnerable to attack. The government at first would not state the reason for the attack on the complex; later it would admit that the main objective was the MILF itself, in order for the government to maintain the dominant position in the conflict. Jesus Dureza, chairman of the government panel during peace talks with the MILF during this time, is on record stating that the attack on the Buliok complex came after the government failed to forge a ceasefire agreement with the MILF.

## Aftermath

The Buliok complex was captured by government forces on 13 February 2003. A month after, the MILF attempted to retake their lost stronghold in an offensive that resulted in the deaths of 68-200 of their members. During this period, the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the MILF exchanged widely-conflicting casualty reports. Government military officials commented on how "youthful-looking" the slain MILF fighters were; Mohagher Iqbal, then-spokesman of the MILF central committee, admitted that some of their fighters were "able-bodied teenagers" who voluntarily joined the MILF.
Salamat Hashim, the founder of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, died by year's end.

# Enei Battalion (Ukraine)

The Special Operations Enei Battalion is a battalion of the Liut Brigade of the Special Tasks Patrol Police subordinated to Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. The regiment is based in Kyiv. It was established in 2022 in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and has, since then seen regular combat on the frontlines.

## History

In February 2022, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Enei Battalion was established as a part of a united police command against Russian forces. The battalion was composed of former volunteer units of the National Police of Ukraine and immediately took part in the Battle of Kyiv and then deployed to fight in the Battle of Bakhmut. In 2023, the battalion became part of the Liut Brigade as the Enei Special Operations Company, fighting in Bakhmut. On 30 July 2023, the company conducted an assault on Russian positions in Bakhmut capturing 5 Russian soldiers. In January 2024, the company was expanded to a Battalion. On 1 March 2024, the Battalion received commendation for its actions during the Russo-Ukrainian war. On 6 March 2024, the heads of the regional departments of the Estonian Police and the Estonian Border Guard, Tarvo Kruup and Vallo Koppel visited the battalion headquarters, and observed its training, armament and commended the Battalion over its tactics and operations. On 28 April 2024, the second season of the "Kyiv Nezlamny" sports tournament was held in the capital's Muromets park, in which more than 180 veterans from different regions of Ukraine, cadets of military and police universities, and about 150 representatives of various law enforcement agencies, including fighters of the battalion, took part. The Enei Battalion won the most prizes in the competition. The battalion then took part in the Battle of Toretsk engaging Russian troops in Pivnichne. During the Battle of Toretsk, the Battalion conducted an operation to capture a strategic building in the city by using two Roshel Senator armored vehicles, the five story building was captured, mined and detonated, opening up the right flank of the Russian forces for direct strikes.

# Alastalon salissa

Alastalon salissa (In the Alastalo Parlor) is a 1933 landmark Finnish novel by Volter Kilpi. The two-volume, over 800-page story covers a period of only six hours, written partly in a stream-of-consciousness style similar to James Joyce’s Ulysses—though some Finnish critics have argued that the stream-of-consciousness passages are neither as radical nor as extensive as Joyce's, and actually Kilpi's novel is closer in style and spirit to Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time.

## Plot summary

The central narrative of Alastalon salissa describes a meeting of a group of wealthy men from Kustavi in the Archipelago Sea in Western Finland one October Thursday in the 1860s. The men are trying to decide whether to invest in a shipbuilding venture proposed by one of their number, Herman Mattsson, master of Alastalo. The novel's length stems from numerous digressions, internal monologues and a detailed accounting of each character's thought processes. In one famous scene, a character's journey to the mantelpiece to fetch a pipe is told in over seventy pages.

## Translations

No complete English translation has been published; but in the early 1990s, the editors of Books From Finland asked David Barrett (1914–1998) to translate Kilpi’s Alastalo into English; after translating just a few paragraphs Barrett declined the invitation:
   Reluctantly (I really have tried) I have been driven to conclude that Alastalon salissa is untranslatable, except perhaps by a fanatical Volter Kilpi enthusiast who is prepared to devote a lifetime to it. To mention only one of the difficulties, there is no English equivalent to the style of the Finnish ‘proverbs’ (real or imaginary) with which the main character Alastalo’s thoughts are so thickly larded. Add to this the richness and, yes, eccentricity, of Kilpi’s vocabulary, and the unfamiliarity of much of the subject-matter, centred as it is on the interests of a sea-going community that hardly exists any longer, even on the islands, and you have a text that is full of pitfalls for the translator. As for the humour, I’m sorry to say that it depends so much on the idiom and presentation that it doesn’t come over at all. If I did any more, I’m afraid it would just have to be a laborious paraphrase, and I don’t think I’m capable of making it effective, or even readable, in English.
Barrett's translation of the "untranslatable" opening pages of the novel are also published there. For a translation of a page and a half from later in the first chapter of the novel—the first major stream-of-consciousness passage—see pp. 247–49 of Douglas Robinson's Aleksis Kivi and/as World Literature.
Thomas Warburton has translated the novel into Swedish as I salen på Alastalo – en skärgårdsskildring (1997). Stefan Moster published a German translation Im Saal von Alastalo in 2021.
# Adamson Bridge

The Adamson Bridge near Valentine in Cherry County, Nebraska, is or was a historic bridge. It was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1992, and was delisted in 2019.
The bridge was built in 1916 by the Canton Bridge Co. It was a timber stringer trestle bridge. It has also been known as the Niobrara River Bridge and has been denoted as NEHBS No. CE00-227.
When it was listed on the National Register, the bridge was notable as one of few surviving examples in Nebraska of early timber bridge designs. The Adamson Bridge appeared to have survived with few alterations due to relatively light traffic at its location.
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
The river crossing was apparently replaced by a concrete beam bridge crossing, at a different crossing point, ca. 1994. Aerial photo view of the coordinates given in the NRHP nomination suggest the highway alignment has changed, showing roads leading to a former crossing point but with no bridge remaining.
