# Catálogo alfabético de apellidos

The Catálogo alfabético de apellidos (English: Alphabetical Catalogue of Surnames; Filipino: Alpabetikong Katalogo ng mga apelyido) is a book of surnames in the Philippines and other islands of Spanish East Indies published in the mid-19th century. That was in response to a Spanish colonial decree establishing the distribution of Spanish family names and local surnames among colonial subjects who did not have a prior surname. It is also the reason for Filipinos sharing some of the same surnames as many Spaniards and other Hispanic countries.
The book was created after Spanish governor-general Narciso Clavería y Zaldúa issued a decree on November 21, 1849, to address the lack of a standard naming convention. Newly-Christianised Filipinos often chose the now-ubiquitous surnames of de los Santos, de la Cruz, del Rosario, and Bautista for religious reasons; others preferred names of well-known local rulers such as Lacandola. To complicate matters further, discrepancies like family members holding different surnames would hinder some of the colonial government's activities such as taking a census and tax collection.

## Dissemination of surnames

According to the decree, a copy of the catalogue, which contains 61,000 surnames, was to be distributed to the provincial heads of the archipelago. From there, a certain number of surnames, based on population, were sent to each barangay's parish priest. The head of each barangay, along with another town official or two, was present when the father or the oldest person in each family chose a surname for his or her family. A surname is given to only one family per municipality to reduce any issues about surnames being associated with an ethnic background or group affiliation. The dissemination of surnames were also based on the recipient family's origins. For example, surnames starting with "A" were distributed to provincial capitals, "B" surnames were given to secondary towns, and tertiary towns received "C" surnames.
Families were awarded with the surnames or asked to choose from them. However, several groups were exempt from having to choose new surnames:
* Those with a previously adopted surname (whether indigenous or foreign) already on the list or, if not on the list, not prohibited because of ethnic origin or being too common.
* Families who had already adopted a prohibited surname but could prove their family had used the name for at least four consecutive generations. (Those were names prohibited for being too common, like de los Santos or de la Cruz or for other reasons.)
Spanish names are the majority found in the books' list of legitimate surnames. Because of the mass implementation of Spanish surnames in the Philippines, a Spanish surname does not necessarily indicate Spanish ancestry, which can make it difficult for Filipinos to accurately trace their lineage. Surnames from native local languages are also listed, including the first surname in the book, Aacain.
# Digging...

"Digging..." is a popular Indian poem by the internationally acclaimed Indian English poet Gopi Krishnan Kottoor. The poem won Second Prize in the Seventh All India Poetry Competition conducted by The Poetry Society (India) in 1997. The renowned British poet Vicki Feaver was the Chairman of the award committee. This was the second major literary award for Kottoor, who went on to win four more major poetry awards at All India Poetry Competition.

## Excerpts from the poem

    The soil I now pick
    contains fragments of the dead.
    They once saddened and happied themselves here
    turning to the sun and moon, quite puzzled
    then taking things as they came,
    for granted. This is hard brown laterite
    that I turn,
    to plant a few bright periwinkles
    stolen from the mound of one long obscure,
    dead. They should grow well here.
    So I turn out
    the millipedes curling up
    ashamed of the sudden expose
    into the dark ringstones of sapphire and topaz.
    Pinned to sudden light they have all coiled up
    in abject surrender. These things we bury back
    with pushed up soil, crushing strange roots
    going everywhere like soft nerve fibers,
    sending messages of thirst to strange
    destinations. Each scoop of mud
    brings more life to light
    lost like death underground
    doing odd jobs, ordained like saints, salient
    in dark recess drawing salary in kind.
    Mud-work is a kind of worship.
    A silent thanksgiving for a home, called earth.

## Comments and criticism

The poem has received positive reviews since its first publication in 1997 in the book Emerging Voices. The poem has been frequently quoted in scholarly analysis of contemporary Indian English poetry. The poem has become very popular in Indian English literature and has been widely anthologised.

# Chandamari Mosque

The Chandamari Mosque, also known by its official name, the Chandamari Mondalpara Jame Mosque (Bengali: চান্দামারী মন্ডলপাড়া জামে মসজিদ), is a mosque, located in the village of Chandamari, in Rajarhat Upazila, in the Kurigram District of Bangladesh.

## Overview

It is believed that the Chandamari Mosque was constructed between 1584 and 1680 CE. The mosque is situated approximately 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) southwest of the upazila headquarters.

## History

There is no inscription regarding the construction of the mosque, but it is said that the mosque was built around 400 years ago during the Mughal period. Based on its architectural style and artistic features, it is estimated that the mosque was constructed between approximately 1584 and 1680 AD. The Chandamari Mosque bears significant resemblance to India's Babri Mosque and the Sixty Dome Mosque in Bagerhat.Even today, local residents as well as worshippers from distant places come to offer prayers at this mosque.

## Architecture

The Chandamari Mosque, along with a cemetery, occupies an area of 52 decimals. The entire structure of the mosque is 45 feet in length and 22 feet in width. It is surrounded by boundary walls and stands 60 feet tall. A sticky substance called "Viscas" was used in its construction. The front side of the mosque features three large doors, each 5 feet high. The mosque has three large domes, each with a radius of approximately 5.50 feet, adorned with intricate designs. At each of the four corners, there is a medium-sized minaret, and the structure is further embellished with sixteen smaller domes. Inside, there are three mihrabs. The walls of the mosque are decorated with numerous arches. Additionally, there is a window on the northern and southern sides for ventilation.
The architectural style of this mosque clearly reflects influences from both the Sultanate and Mughal periods.
# Arif Agha Mosque, Iraq

The Arif Agha Mosque (Arabic: مسجد عارف آغا) later known as the Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal Mosque is a historic mosque located in the Rusafa area of Baghdad, Iraq. The mosque was built during the Ottoman period, and it contains a small mausoleum which is purported to be the burial place of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, the founder of the Hanbali school of thought.

## Description

The mosque is an Ottoman-period structure. It consists of a prayer hall, courtyard, and a small room topped by a dome which serves as a mausoleum. The total area of the mosque is around 300 square metres, and the mausoleum room cannot hold more than 30 visitors. Parts of the mosque are in disrepair and currently undergoing an extensive restoration.

## Attribution of Ahmad ibn Hanbal's burial place

In 1937, the remains of Ahmad ibn Hanbal were supposedly transferred to the Arif Agha Mosque after the cemetery he was buried in was flooded by the Tigris. Later historians have doubted the story, saying that it is inaccurate and erroneous. Before this, a domed mausoleum had been built over the grave of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, but it was destroyed repeatedly.
# Teboho MacDonald Mashinini

A move by South Africa's apartheid government to make the language Afrikaans an equal mandatory language of education for all South Africans in conjunction with English was extremely unpopular with black and English-speaking South African students.
A student himself, Mashinini planned a mass demonstration by students for 16 June 1976. This demonstration which would become known as the Soweto Uprising lasted for three days during which several hundred people were killed.
Having been identified as the leader of the uprising by the South African government, Mashinini fled South Africa in exile, first to London then later to various other African countries, including Liberia where he was briefly married to Miss Liberia 1977, Welma Campbell.
He died under mysterious circumstances, possibly of homicide, in the summer of 1990 while in exile in Guinea. His body was repatriated to South Africa on 4 August 1990 where he was interred in Avalon Cemetery. His grave bears the epitaph "Black Power".

## Legacy

There is a statue of Teboho Mashinini by Johannes Phokela in the grounds of his old school that was unveiled on 1 May 2010 by Amos Masondo, the Mayor of Johannesburg.
# Lord of Halydean

Lord of Halydean or Baron of Halydean is a nobility title in the Baronage of Scotland (a lordship of higher nobility than barony).
Halydean (pronounced "Hollydeen," and also spelled "Holydean") is a Scottish Crown Barony and Lordship in Roxburghshire in the neighbourhood of Kelso, in the Borderlands of Scotland, along the River Tweed. This area along the Tweed is home to the Scottish border clans, including the Armstrongs, Douglases, Elliots, Johnstones, Kers, Moffats, and many others. The Barony and Lordship of Halydean (Holydean) is one of the oldest Norman feudal baronies in Scotland with a living claimant.
The first Lord Halydean was created by King David I of Scotland when he erected the Barony and Lordship of Halydean in 1128. The Abbot of Kelso from Kelso Abbey was the local lord, who ruled one of the most powerful ecclesiastical burghs in all of Scotland. This burgh was rivaled only by St. Andrews (another burgh). David I brought the monks from Tiron in Picardy, whom he transferred from Selkirk. The monks were part of the peerage of Scotland until 1545 when the Earl of Hertford reduced the abbey to ruins. The next Lord of Halydean was made in 1602 when the Barony and Lordship of Halydean was infeft to Sir Rober Ker of Cessford, who was made 1st Earl of Roxburghe. One of his heirs became the Duke of Roxburghe, and eventually the Lordship and Barony of Halydean were disponed in the traditional Scottish manner to a member of Clan Moffat, another Scottish border clan.
Taylor Moffitt of Halydean is the present Lord Halydean, the 15th baron since secularisation in 1602. The incumbent is Ewan Moffitt of Halydean, yr, according to the customs of primogeniture.
