# Barkagaon (community development block)

**Barkagaon** is a community development block that forms an administrative division in the Hazaribagh Sadar subdivision of the Hazaribagh district in the Indian state of Jharkhand.

## Overview

Hazaribagh district is spread over a part of the Chota Nagpur Plateau. The central plateau, averaging a height of 2,000 ft (610 m), occupies the central part of the district. On all sides, except on the western side, it is surrounded by the lower plateau, averaging a height of 1,300 ft (396 m), the surface being undulating. In the north and the north-west the lower plateau forms a fairly level tableland till the ghats, when the height drops to about 700 ft (213 m) and slopes down gradually. The Damodar and the Barakar form the two main watersheds in the district. DVC has constructed the Konar Dam across the Konar River. It is a forested district with cultivation as the main occupation of the people. Coal is the main mineral found in this district. China clay is also found in this district. Inaugurating the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana in 2016, Raghubar Das, Chief Minister of Jharkhand, had indicated that there were 23 lakh BPL families in Jharkhand. There was a plan to bring the BPL proportion in the total population down to 35%.

## Maoist activities

Right from its inception in 2000. Jharkhand was a “laboratory” for Naxalites to experiment with their ideas of establishing a parallel government. As of 2005, 16 of the 22 districts in the state, including Hazaribagh district, was transformed into a “guerrilla zone”. The movement was not restricted to armed operations but included kangaroo courts called Jan Adalats, elected village bodies and people's police. Jharkhand, with a dense forest cover over a large part of the state, offers a favourable terrain for the Naxalites to build their bases and operate. Annual fatalities in Jharkhand were 117 in 2003 and 150 in 2004. In 2013 Jharkhand was considered one of the two states in the country most affected by Left wing extremism and Jharkhand police set up an exclusive cell to deal with Maoist activities. However, in the same year, when Jharkhand police identified 13 focus areas for combating Maoist extremism, Hazaribagh district was not one of them.

# Arctogeophilus

***Arctogeophilus*** is a genus of soil centipedes in the family Geophildae. These centipedes are found in subarctic and temperate regions of Asia, North America, and western Europe. The taxon *Arctogeophilus* was first proposed in 1909 by the Austrian myriapodologist Carl Attems as a subgenus within the genus *Geophilus*. The French zoologist Henri Ribaut elevated *Arctogeophilus* to the rank of genus in 1910.

## Description

Species in this genus have markedly elongate heads. The side pieces of the labrum almost touch in the middle, with the intermediate part inconspicuous. The forcipule is elongate, especially the first article, which features a distal denticle. The ultimate article of the forcipule features a basal denticle. The sterna have no carpophagus structures and usually no clusters of pores. The ultimate legs are longer than the penultimate legs, and the basal part of each of the ultimate legs usually features scattered pores.

Centipedes in this genus range from less than 2 cm to 5 cm in length and have 35 to 69 pairs of legs. The Russian species *Arctogeophilus sachalinus* and the German species *A. wolfi* are notable for their small sizes, measuring only 11 mm and 14 mm in length, respectively. The North American species *A. melanonotus* is notable for its large size, reaching 50 mm in length. The Russian species *A. macrocephalus* can have as few as 35 leg pairs, the minimum number recorded in this genus. The North American species *A. atopus* can have as many as 69 leg pairs, the maximum number recorded in this genus.

The championships returned to Dartmouth Skiway in 1964, but rain forced the transfer of the alpine events to Cannon Mountain; the next time at Dartmouth was in 2003. The vertical drop of the Skiway in 2020 was approximately 970 feet (295 m).

# 1985–86 S.L. Benfica season

The 1985–86 season was Sport Lisboa e Benfica's 82nd season in existence and the club's 52nd consecutive season in the top flight of Portuguese football, covering the period from 1 July 1985 to 30 June 1986. Benfica competed domestically in the Primeira Divisão, Taça de Portugal and the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira, and participated in the Cup Winners' Cup after winning the Taça de Portugal in the previous season.

In the new season, John Mortimore replaced Pál Csernai after the Hungarian underperformed at the helm. Only major signing was Rui Águas, but Benfica fought to kept a trio composed of Carlos Manuel, Diamantino Miranda and José Luís from leaving. In the league, Benfica started in erratic shape but quickly settled and racked up several consecutive wins. They ended 1985 in first place and having the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira, their second Supertaça. In the first months of new year, Benfica kept their first place, while knocking out Porto and Sporting from the Portuguese Cup. In April, the season took a dramatic turn when Benfica lost at home to Sporting and were matched in first place by Porto, who confirmed their title a week later. Nonetheless, Benfica finished the month by lifting their 20th Taça de Portugal against Belenenses.

## Season summary

Benfica started the new season with a change in leadership. The performance under Pál Csernai in 1984–85 was disappointing, so it was only expectable that he would be replaced. In late April, John Mortimore, was selected as his replacement. The club made some adjustments in the transfer window but the biggest signing was Rui Águas. The summer story instead revolved around the contract extensions for Carlos Manuel, Diamantino Miranda and José Luís. Particularly, Carlos Manuel, who was rumoured to move to Braga. In July, all three agreed terms and signed their extensions, ending the impasse. The pre-season began on 11 July, with three preparation games scheduled for late July. Benfica then took part in the regional Taça de Honra and in the Lisbon International Tournament, winning both.

The league campaign started with the Clássico with Porto, with Benfica losing 2–0. The next week, Benfica defeated Marítimo by 9–0, and then lost again, now with Vitória de Guimarães. They followed that with a draw against Vitória de Setúbal. On the third weekend of September, Benfica opened the new third tier of Estádio da Luz, taking advantage of the week off from the first round of the Cup Winners' Cup. Because of the Heysel Stadium disaster, their opponent, Manchester United was banned. In October, in their debut in Europe, Benfica eliminated Sampdoria. Domestically, the league had much improve and by 25 November, Benfica was only a point shy of first place. In early December, Benfica drew in Antas and won their second Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira, after having previously beat them by one-nil at home. On 21 December, Benfica drew with Sporting, which levelled the Big Three at the top with 22 points. Closing the year, Benfica defeated Boavista and lapped the first round of the league in first place, after recovering five points since September.

After an event-less January, in which Benfica retained their one-point lead over Sporting; in February, Benfica faced Porto again, this time for the round of 16 of the Taça de Portugal, winning 2–1. Meanwhile, in the Primeira Divisão, they added another point in their lead over their closest competitors. In March, Benfica was eliminated of the Cup Winners' Cup by Dukla Prague, while in the Portuguese Cup, they thrashed Sporting by 5–0 in the quarter-finals. They finished the month with a replay of the match with Salgueiros, which had been postponed in February because of the pitch conditions. They drew 1–1 and lost points in title race.

In April, Benfica received Sporting in what was labelled the D-Day for the league. Despite leading the league for most of second round, they lost 2–1, which allowed Porto to catch them in the first place, with a better head-to-head record. Mortimore said: "Sporting had two chances and converted them both, we had lost the league". On the last day of the campaign, Porto beat last classified, Sporting da Covilhã and won the league, while Benfica lost in Bessa with Boavista. Benfica reacted in the best way and qualified for the Taça de Portugal final, where they defeated Belenenses to lift their 20th Taça de Portugal. After the win, Manuel Bento said: "The bastards won the Cup after all". He also approached the loss of the league title with: "forces too powerful took away our title."

# 2007 Senegalese parliamentary election

Parliamentary elections were held in Senegal on 3 June 2007 to elect the 150 members of the National Assembly. They had originally been planned to be held together with the presidential election on 25 February 2007, but were postponed. Fourteen parties or coalitions participated in the elections, but they were marked by a major opposition boycott. The ruling Sopi Coalition won 131 seats, including all 90 of the seats elected by majority voting.

## Electoral system

In late March, the National Assembly passed a law requiring gender parity in national candidate lists; this move was backed by Wade. However, in early April it was reported that, due to an appeal against the law filed by the Socialist Party, the application of the law was suspended and it was not in effect for the June election.

According to an electoral commission official in May, over 4,000 candidates were standing for the 150 National Assembly seats. Previously the Assembly was composed of 120 seats. 90 of the seats in the new Assembly were to be decided through majority votes and 60 were to be decided through proportional representation. Campaigning for the election began on 13 May and ran until midnight on 1 June. Members of the security forces voted a week early, on May 26 and May 27. Participation among the security forces was placed at 27.23%, and the boycotting parties (grouped into a coalition called the Siggil Sénégal Front) said that this indicated that the security forces observed the boycott.

## Campaign

On 2 April, twelve opposition parties, including the former ruling Socialist Party and the Rewmi party of Idrissa Seck, who placed second in the presidential election, announced they would boycott the election, alleging that the electoral roll was doctored. They wanted the electoral roll to be revised and for a new, independent electoral commission to be created. They had demanded that the Interior Minister, Ousmane Ngom, be dismissed; they also said that the constituencies were drawn to the advantage of the Democratic Party of President Abdoulaye Wade, and demanded that they be redrawn. Wade refused to talk to them and said that they could boycott if they wished. On 5 April, it was announced that the coalition And Defarat Sénégal, including And-Jëf/African Party for Democracy and Socialism (AJ-PADS), would contest the election, with a spokesman saying that boycotts were not politically effective. On 6 April, several of the main parties participating in the boycott announced that they were withdrawing their guarantees of 15 million CFA francs in order to invalidate their candidacies, citing the unwillingness of Wade to engage in dialogue. Prior to the deadline at midnight on the same day, 15 parties or coalitions filed candidate lists with the Interior Ministry, which had three days to determine the validity of the lists. Interior Minister Ngom pointed to the participation of 15 lists as evidence for the health of Senegalese democracy; others, however, have considered the situation to be a serious setback for democracy. 14 of the lists were approved and one, an independent list, was rejected.

In late April, the boycotting parties began a tour intended to explain the boycott throughout the country.

## Results

Initial reports described voter turnout as low, and it was estimated that turnout was no higher than 30–35%. Ngom and Prime Minister Macky Sall said that it was premature to say that turnout was low while voting was ongoing; Sall also argued that in any country, turnout in parliamentary elections is lower than in presidential elections. In the February 2007 presidential elections, turnout had been 70%; in the 2001 parliamentary elections it had been 67.4%. After voting, Wade expressed his hope for a large turnout but noted that voting was voluntary in Senegal. The Siggil Sénégal Front described turnout as very low and said that its boycott had been largely observed by the people. Ngom said that the next National Assembly would be legitimate regardless of the turnout rate. Former president Abdou Diouf voted in the election in Paris, despite the participation of the Socialist Party, which he led while he was president, in the boycott.

An interior ministry estimate on 4 June placed turnout at about 38%. Sall said that the Sopi Coalition won all 35 electoral districts and all of the 90 seats determined by majority voting. On the same day, the Siggil Sénégal Front demanded that Wade cancel the election and engage in dialogue with the opposition.

Provisional results were released on 7 June showed the Sopi Coalition with a total of 131 seats, taking all 90 of the seats elected by majority voting and a further 41 seats elected by proportional representation. Voter turnout was placed at 34.75%. Final results from the Constitutional Council on 14 June confirmed Sopi's victory with 131 seats.

## Aftermath

On 19 June Cheikh Hadjibou Soumaré, a technocrat who was not a member of the PDS, was appointed prime minister by Wade to replace Sall. A new government, largely similar to the old government and not including the opposition, was named on the same day.

# Avernum 3: Ruined World

***Avernum 3: Ruined World*** is a single-player role-playing video game developed by Spiderweb Software. It is the third game in the *Avernum* trilogy. The game was released for macOS and Windows in January 2018. An iOS version was released on April 18, 2018.

## Gameplay

*Avernum 3: Ruined World* is a single-player role-playing video game. The player controls a group of up to four adventurers, who can use melee weapons, missile weapons, magic, or a mix of these skills to defeat opponents. The game system in *Avernum 3* is skill based. Characters choose a character class at the beginning of the game, but this only determines the character's starting skills. The player is then free to train the character in 28 different skills, ranging from melee weapons to arcane lore to first aid. Characters in *Avernum 3* have access to over 60 different spells and battle disciplines. These can be spells to inflict damage or summon aid, blessings and curses, and rituals that heal wounded party members. *Avernum 3* features elaborate scripted encounters that are intended to encourage a variety of tactics.

*Avernum 3* features a large world that evolves as time passes. Towns will fall to the monsters and refugees will move from town to town. An open-ended system allows a variety of different playstyles. The player can fight monsters or ignore the main quest and become a merchant or bounty hunter. Combat in *Avernum 3* is turn-based. Creatures in battle take turns acting, during which they can move, use abilities, and attack.

## Setting

The *Avernum* series is the third chapter in the *Avernum* series. It is based in Avernum, a subterranean nation far under the surface of the world. Avernum is a prison, the destination of petty criminals and rebels from the surface. As *Avernum 3* begins, the Avernites have found a way to leave the underworld. However, the surface is being ravaged by waves of monsters. If the player can't find a way to end this invasion, there will be no surface world to escape to.

## Development

Jeff Vogel, who does the programming and game design himself, said he did a remake of *Avernum III* because it was not functioning on modern systems. He also wanted to port it to newer systems and improve the game design. Vogel described it as the largest of his games, inspired by the epic scope of *The Elder Scrolls*.

## Reception

*Digitally Downloaded* called it the best of the *Avernum* series and praised its uncompromising faithfulness to its niche of retrogaming. In a roundup of the best iOS games of 2018, *TouchArcade* recommended it to players who want a role-playing game with "serious meat on its bones". *Pocket Tactics* wrote, "Fans will need no convincing, but get past the rudimentary presentation, and even determined novice players will find *Avernum* a world worth exploring." In a news post, *PC World* described it as a fan favorite and good entry point for newcomers.
