# Armstrong Creek (West Virginia)

Armstrong Creek is a tributary of the Kanawha River, 8.6 miles (13.8 km) long, in southern West Virginia in the United States. Via the Kanawha and Ohio rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 22.8 square miles (59 km$^2$) on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. The creek flows for its entire length in western Fayette County; its tributaries additionally drain a small portion of eastern Kanawha County.
Armstrong Creek is formed approximately 1.3 miles (2.1 km) southwest of the unincorporated community of McDunn by the confluence of the Left Fork Armstrong Creek, 2.9 miles (4.7 km) long, which rises approximately 1.7 miles (2.7 km) north-northeast of the unincorporated community of Westerly; and the Right Fork Armstrong Creek, 2.5 miles (4.0 km) long, which rises approximately 1.4 miles (2.3 km) north-northeast of Westerly. Both headwaters forks flow generally north-northwestward, and from their confluence Armstrong Creek flows generally north-northeastward through the unincorporated communities of Elkridge, Powellton, Columbia, and Kimberly, to Mount Carbon, where it flows into the Kanawha River. The creek is paralleled by county roads for most of its course.
The Geographic Names Information System lists "Armstrong's Creek" as a historical variant name for the creek.

# Barvenkovo–Lozovaya offensive

The Barvenkovo–Lozovaya offensive was a Red Army operation on the Eastern Front in the European Theatre of World War II; it took place between 18 and 31 January 1942. The Red Army advanced 90–100 kilometres (56–62 mi) and destroyed 3 German divisions (298th, 68 and 257th Infantry Divisions). According to Soviet data, Nazi Germany lost 25,000 soldiers. According to German sources, some 5,000 soldiers were lost.

## Prelude

Preparations for the Barvenkovo–Lozovaya operation began from the first days of 1942. The operation was to be carried out by the forces of the South-Western and Southern Fronts. In the area of Balakliia, Lozova and Barvenkovo, the enemy's defense was not solid, but was organized in the form of a number of strongholds prepared for the conduct of circular defense. The plan of the operation was to have both Fronts jointly break through the defenses between Balakliia and Artyomovsk, to advance in the rear of the enemy forces in the Donbass-Taganrog area, to push it towards the coast of the Sea of Azov and destroy it there.

## Order of battle
### USSR

* Southwestern Front (commander – Fyodor Kostenko).
** 6th Army (Auxentios Gorodnyansky);
** 38th Army (Alesksey G. Maslov);
** 6th Cavalry Corps (A. F. Byczkowski).
* Southern Front (commander – Rodion Malinovsky).
** 57th Army (Dmitry Ryabyshev);
** 37th Army (Anton Lopatin);
** 12th Army (Konstantin Koroteyev);
** 9th Army (Fyodor Kharitonov);
** 1st Cavalry Corps (Feofan Parkhomenko);
** 5th Cavalry Corps (Andrei Grechko).

### Germany

* Army Group South (General Field Marshal Walter von Reichenau, from January 18, 1942 – Fedor von Bock).
** 6th Army (Friedrich Paulus);
** 17th Army (Hermann Hoth);
** 1st Panzer Army (Ewald von Kleist).

## Results

The Soviet command failed to perform the task to encircle and destroy a large group of the Wehrmacht. The command of the Soviet troops, acting at the initial stage decisively, did not take the necessary measures to expand the breakthrough on the flanks. This allowed the Germans to move in reinforcements and suffer relatively small losses to stabilize the situation.
Soviet historiography actively postulated the thesis that thanks to the Barvenkovo–Lozovaya operation, the German command could not transfer reinforcements from the southern section of the Soviet-German front to Moscow, where Soviet troops successfully counterattacked. However, the operation itself, which began in the second half of January 1942, started too late to affect the overall outcome of the Battle of Moscow.
The Soviet advance created the Izyum–Barvenkovo salient, which would be cut off by the Germans during the Second Battle of Kharkov in May 1942, causing the loss of some 300,000 Soviet soldiers.

# 5-APDI

5-(2-Aminopropyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene (5-APDI), also known as indanylaminopropane (IAP), 2-aminopropylindane (2-API), indanametamine, and, incorrectly, as indanylamphetamine, is an entactogen and psychedelic drug of the amphetamine family. It has been sold by online vendors through the Internet and has been encountered as a designer drug since 2003, but its popularity and availability has diminished in recent years.
5-APDI appears to act as a potent and weakly selective serotonin releasing agent (SSRA) with IC$_{50}$ values of 82 nM, 1,848 nM, and 849 nM for inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, respectively. It fully substitutes for MBDB but not amphetamine in trained animals, though it does produce disruption for the latter at high doses.
5-APDI has been classified as a class B drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 since 10 June 2014.
# Zvezda (magazine)

Zvezda (Russian: Звезда, lit. 'star') is a Russian literary magazine published in Saint Petersburg since 1924. It began as a bimonthly, but has been monthly since 1927.

## History

The first issue of Zvezda appeared in January 1924, with Ivan Maisky as editor-in-chief. Katerina Clark writes, in a discussion of the new journals founded at this time:
   Unlike Moscow, Petrograd was given only one "thick" journal, the Star (Zvezda), which was less important and had a smaller circulation than its Moscow counterparts, which were thus able to lure away the more successful or acceptable Petrograd writers.... [Zvezda] functioned as a medium through which fringe figures on the left (proletarian extremists) and the right (such as Pilnyak, Pasternak, and Mandelshtam) could publish. While this situation afforded Petrograd the role of the more honorable, less compromised city, to some it seemed the town of the has-beens.
Aside from the authors mentioned by Clark, in its early years Zvezda published Maxim Gorky, Nikolay Zabolotsky, Mikhail Zoshchenko, Veniamin Kaverin, Nikolai Klyuev, Boris Lavrenyov, Konstantin Fedin, Vladislav Khodasevich, and Yury Tynyanov, among others. It survived the difficult circumstances of the Siege of Leningrad, and after the war published works by such writers as Vera Panova, Daniil Granin, Vsevolod Kochetov, and Yury German. However, it was severely criticized during the Zhdanovschina cultural attacks of 1946 for publishing Zoshchenko and Anna Akhmatova.
Today it is collectively owned by its editorial staff. Its regular sections are "Russia and the Caucasus", "Philosophical commentary", "Memoirs of the 20th century", "People and fate", and "Prose and verse". Once a year it publishes a special issue dedicated to a prominent author or phenomenon.

# Ali Dinar

Muhammad Ali Dinar (Arabic: محمد علي دينار, romanized: Muḥammad ʿAlī Dīnār; c. 1865 – 6 November 1916), known more generally as Ali Dinar, was the last sultan of Darfur and ruler from the Keira dynasty.
Ali Dinar ascended to the throne of Darfur in 1891, after his cousin, the 'shadow sultan' Abū l-Khayrāt, was killed by a band of rebellious slaves. The incident surrounding Abū l-Khayrāt's death is obscure, but some sources allege that Ali Dinar had incited his death; Ali Dinar himself denied the allegation. This period of Ali Dinar's reign was troublesome, with him ultimately being urged by his followers to enter negotiations with the Mahdists in al-Fāshir, an act which brought about raids upon him by the Masālīt and his being despoiled by Bakhīt Abū Risha of Dār Silā.
Ultimately, Ali Dinar surrendered in Mahdist-occupied al-Fāshir on October 13, 1891. Initially being favorably received, Ali Dinar was later imprisoned for drinking wine. He was saved by the intercession of the amīr Maḥmūd w. Aḥmad, Mahdist governor of Darfur, subsequently joining the latter's entourage. Accompanying Maḥmūd, Ali traveled to Omdurman, the Mahdist capital, where he met the Khalīfa ʿAbdallāhi. In June 1894, Ali returned to the Darfur, presumably in preparation for Maḥmūd w. Aḥmad's campaign of 1895. This return was short lived, however, as suspicions that Ali intended to rebel against the Mahdists caused him to be sent back to Omdurman in January 1895. Ali Dinar's time in Omdurman is obscure, but it is alleged that he was made a mulāzim [attendant] to the Khalīfa or his son, ʿUthmān, and came to be an acquaintance of Rudolf Slatin. Later, Ali Dinar entered the service of amīr Ibrāhīm al-Khalīl, Mahdist commander of jihādiyya, accompanying him in 1896 to fight in the Nuba Mountains.
As the Battle of Omdurman approached, Ali Dinar began planning his flight back to Darfur. Just before or during the battle, he put his plan into effect, bringing with him many notables of the old sultanate. Rendering hapless the Mahdist garrison at al-Fāshir and rival contenders to the throne, Ali Dinar began to rapidly reassert the authority of the Darfur Sultanate. He was especially focused on establishing a functioning judiciary system as well as rooting out Mahdist influence in the region. Ali Dinar also set about establishing diplomatic connections to various of his neighbors such as the Sānūsiyya, Wadai, Dār Silā, Dār al-Kūtī, etc.
In 1915 Ali Dinar declared his support to the Ottoman Empire in the First World War, which led the British government to dispatch the invasion of Darfur, in which he was killed in action, after which his sultanate was incorporated into Anglo-Egyptian Sudan.

# Experimental Station for Landscape Plants

The Experimental Station for Landscape Plants (緑地植物実験所, Ryokuchi Shokubutsu Jikkensho), also called the Kemigawa Arboretum, is a research and plant-breeding arboretum operated by the University of Tokyo Faculty of Agriculture, and located at Hata-machi 1051, Hanamigawa-ku, Chiba, Chiba, Japan.
The arboretum was established in 1965 as the Horticultural Experimental Station to collect and study garden and landscape plants, and to develop techniques for their cultivation, breeding, and use. In 1975 it evolved into the Experimental Station of Plants for Landscaping to reflect the importance of landscape plants in protecting the environment. In 1989 it received its present name.
The arboretum covers 47,031 m$^2$, and contains about 350 species (500 varieties) of woody plants and flowers, with excellent collections of Camellia japonica (130 varieties), Camellia sasanqua (30 varieties), and flowering lotus (including 250 varieties of Nelumbo nucifera and Nelumbo lutea). The arboretum also contains other aquatic plant species, lawn grass varieties, and herbs, as well as a general arboretum, and two greenhouses.
