Arkansas State Highway 43

Arkansas State Highway 43 is a highway in northwest Arkansas. Originally numbered Arkansas State Highway 99, it was renumbered in the mid-1960's to its present number. Its northern terminus is at the Missouri state line near South West City, Missouri where it continues north as Missouri State Highway 43; its southern terminus was originally at U.S. Highway 412 in Siloam Springs, but was rerouted in the mid 1990's along the former Arkansas State Highway 204, terminating at Arkansas State Highway 59. Several of the northern most miles runs on the Arkansas/Oklahoma state line, and the road is multiplexed with Oklahoma State Highway 20 (one of the extremely rare instances of state highways from two different states duplexing). Other than Siloam Springs, the only other town on the route is Maysville which is on the state line only a few miles south of where Oklahoma 20 splits off from Arkansas 43. (references)

In the human this area is known as subcentral area 43 refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined postcentral region of cerebral cortex. It occupies the postcentral gyrus and the precentral gyrus between the ventrolateral extreme of the central sulcus and the depth of the lateral sulcus at the insula. Its rostral and caudal borders are approximated by the anterior subcentral sulcus (H) and the posterior subcentral sulcus respectively. Cytoarchitecturally it is bounded rostrally by the agranular frontal area 6 and caudally, for the most part, by the caudal postcentral area 2 and the supramarginal area 40 (H) (Brodmann-1909).

California State Route 43

California State Route 43 is a north-south California State Highway along the southern San Joaquin Valley connecting the towns of Shafter, Wasco, Hanford, and Selma, running roughly parallel to CA-99.

North of Wasco, the road is called the Central Valley Highway and it remains two lanes wide for its entire length until its northern terminus in Selma with CA-99. Caltrans has plans to widen CA-43 between the Kings County/Fresno County line and CA-99, but due to the California budget crisis, plans have been put on hold. (references)

The program for a semi-automatic infantry rifle resulted in two designs the G41(M) and G41(W), from Mauser and Walther respectively. They both proved unreliable in combat when introduced in 1941, more so the Mauser, and only several thousand were made of each. In 1943 Walther combined the SVT40 system with aspects of the G41(W), which performed much better. It was accepted and entered service as the G43, and in 1944 renamed K43, with production amounting just over 400,000. (references)

Events

By place

Britain

The long Roman conquest of Britain begins. Aulus Plautius lands with four legions and an equal number of auxiliaries and defeats the Britons, led by Caratacus and Togodumnus, in battles on the rivers Medway and Thames. He halts at the Thames and sends for the emperor Claudius, who leads the march on Camulodunum. Eleven British kings, probably including those of the Iceni and Brigantes, submit without a fight. Meanwhile, the future emperor Vespasian begins to subdue the south-west. The Romans begin to construct forts such as at Peterborough, and begin to construct a road that later becomes Ermine Street.

Roman Empire

Consuls are the emperor Claudius (his second consulship) and Lucius Vitellius.

Claudius annexes Lycia in Asia Minor, combining it with Pamphylia as a Roman province.

The Romans now have complete control of the Mediterranean.

Asia

Warfare begins between the northern and southern Huns.
The warrior Trung Sisters commit suicide after their resistance is defeated at Nam Viet in Vietnam.
