# Iloilo Golf and Country Club

The Iloilo Golf and Country Club, Inc., formerly and informally known as the Santa Barbara Golf Course, is a private members-only golf course and club based in Santa Barbara, Iloilo. It spans a 35-hectare (86-acre) area of plain and rolling hills in Barangay San Sebastian in Santa Barbara. It is considered the first golf club in the Philippines and the oldest existing golf course in Southeast Asia.
It was the first Philippine golf club to be accepted as an affiliate of one of the oldest and most prestigious golf clubs in the world, the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, based in Scotland.

## History

The golf course was established as the Santa Barbara Golf Course in 1907 by a group of Scottish expatriates involved in building the Panay line of Panay Railways, completed the same year. It opened to the public in 1913 as a basic 9-hole course. Initially, the club was exclusive to English and Scottish migrants, but by the late 1920s, wealthy Filipino landowners gained entry, including Mariano Cacho, Oscar Ledesma, Tomas Confesor, William Gemperle, and the brothers Eugenio and Fernando Lopez. With the establishment of the Philippine Commonwealth in 1935, more Filipinos became involved in government and business, further enhancing Iloilo’s mestizo elite to acquired economic power.
The Santa Barbara Golf Course became a prominent golfing hub, attracting enthusiasts not only from the Visayas but also from Manila. Its skilled caddies produced talented professionals sought after by clubs in Manila, including Siodina, Nadales, Rates, Pinet, and Sinfuego, reflecting the course's significant influence. Notable American and British golfers like Gene Sarazen and Jug McSpaden frequented Santa Barbara during their visits to the Philippines.
After World War II, returning migrants, together with members of the now-destroyed Polo Golf Club in Polo, Arevalo, Iloilo City, reestablished the club as the Iloilo Golf and Country Club in 1947.
The National Historical Institute (NHI) validated the club's history and designated it a national historical site in 2007, marking its centenary year. The unveiling of its historical marker was attended by former President Fidel V. Ramos, an avid golfer himself, NHI Director Ambeth Ocampo, British Embassy dignitaries, members of the Iloilo elite, and participants of the Mayor’s Cup.

# Raiders (comics)

The Raiders are a team of three fictional characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Raiders first appear in Iron Man #145 (Apr. 1981), and was created by David Michelinie and Bob Layton.

## Publication history
### American version

The American version of the Raiders are first featured in the title Iron Man, when they suddenly appear during a technology trade show and cause property damage until the arrival of the hero Iron Man. The trio skirmish with Iron Man for a moment, with one of the Raiders using acid to damage the hero's armor. During a second battle at a live boxing match, Iron Man defeats all three Raiders. The trio are revealed to be the employees of Edwin Cord, a corporate rival of Tony Stark (Iron Man's alter ego). Cord knew that Iron Man, as Stark's bodyguard, would follow to the trade show so Cord wanted to demonstrate the Raiders' capabilities for covert organisation S.H.I.E.L.D., but Cord is arrested by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents for irresponsible actions.
The Raiders reappear with upgraded suits, during the "Armor Wars" storyline in the title Iron Man. Stark discovers Iron Man's armor designs have been stolen and decides to retrieve or neutralize the technology, leading to a brief confrontation with the Raiders in which their suits are rendered defunct.
The Raiders were later part of an army of armor-wearing mercenaries hired to attack Stark Enterprises.

### Chinese version

A Chinese version of the Raiders appear during The Invincible Iron Man as remote-controlled drones that confront Iron Man once again.

## Powers and abilities

# Buffalo Courier-Express

The Buffalo Courier-Express was a morning newspaper in Buffalo, New York. It ceased publication on September 19, 1982.

## History

The Courier-Express was created in 1926 by a merger of the Buffalo Daily Courier and the Buffalo Morning Express. William J. Conners, the owner of the Buffalo Courier, brought the two papers together. The combined newspapers claimed a heritage dating to 1828. One notable part-owner and editor of the Buffalo Express was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, whose tenure at the newspaper lasted from 1869 to 1871.
In August 1979, The Courier-Express was purchased by the Cowles Media Company, a publishing company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. After a change in corporate leadership, Cowles Media decided to close the paper in September 1982. After the local Newspaper Guild members voted to oppose a deal to sell the Courier Express to Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, the September 19, 1982 issue was the last issue published. That left Buffalo with only one daily newspaper, the Buffalo Evening News, now known as The Buffalo News.
Cowles Media donated the library to the Buffalo History Museum and Buffalo State College. The library is now housed in the E. H. Butler Library at Buffalo State College. The library consists of approximately one million news clippings, 100,000 photographs and several pieces of artworks and framed photographs. The news clippings and photographs, arranged by subject and person, cover the late 1950s to September 19, 1982. The collection served as the library for the reporters of the paper. The librarians weeded both the clippings and photographic files, discarding older files on a routine basis. As a result, many subject areas are not covered.
The library is currently being digitized. While that may take years, photographs will continually be added to the Butler Library Archives Flickr site.

# The White Desert (1925 film)

The White Desert is a 1925 American silent drama film directed by Reginald Barker. The film stars Claire Windsor and Pat O'Malley, with Robert Frazer, Frank Currier, and Sōjin Kamiyama. It is written by Monte M. Katterjohn and Gordon Rigby and adopted from Denver author Courtney Ryley Cooper's novel The White Desert (1922). This B movie was produced to keep the Loew circuit and other cinemas supplied. The title refers to the snow covered Colorado landscape during winter.

## Plot

As described in a film magazine and newspaper reviews, Barry, the engineer for a construction company, criticizes the foreman for the method he is pursuing for tunneling for railroad construction. The snow ledges have been weakened by the constant dynamiting. With the next explosion of dynamite, an avalanche results which destroys the ledges and nearly wipes out the camp. The surviving workers are isolated, desperate and shattered by the disaster, and unable to obtain food. Foster and his wife have no milk for their child. With hard work, Barry strikes out and works his way out and is able to reach a telephone line, which he taps and calls for help. A relief train with snow plows makes its way through the snow pile and arrives with food and assistance. The camp is saved and Barry wins the affection of Robinette, the daughter of the railroad president.

# Bhau Singh

Bhau Singh (c.1577 – 13 December 1621) was a Mughal nobleman as well as the Raja of Amber.

## Life

Bhau Singh was a younger son of Man Singh I, Raja of Amber, born of Rani Sahodra Gaud, daughter of Raimal. He had only one brother named Durjan Singh. Prior to his accession to the throne, Bhau Singh had been posted in Bengal, working alongside the Deputy Subedar of the region.
Following the death of his father in 1614, Hindu custom dictated that Maha Singh, the son of Bhau Singh's late elder brother Jagat Singh, inherit the throne. However, the Mughal emperor Jahangir overruled this and instead bestowed the crown of Amber on Bhau Singh. The former, who had a close relationship with the new Raja, justified this decision by declaring that he was "the most capable of Man Singh's sons". Maha Singh was given the rule of the lands of Garha (present-day Jabalpur) as consolation for his loss.
Upon his accession, Jahangir initially raised Bhau Singh's mansab to 3000, then to 4000 the following year, before finally promoting him to a commander of 5000 in March 1617. However, when the Emperor dispatched him to the Deccan to serve in the campaign against Malik Amber, Bhau Singh only served as a subordinate captain, in contrast to the supreme commands previously enjoyed by his father and grandfather. The languid manner and poor management of the campaign, combined with the bafflement of Mughal officers when faced with Malik Amber's guerrilla tactics, prevented Bhau Singh from having any substantial achievements in this role.
This inactive and inglorious life appears to have caused a deep melancholy in the Raja, who turned to drinking in response. Following a sojourn to the Mughal royal court, he returned to the Deccan where, in December 1621, he suddenly fainted. His health now debilitated due to alcoholism, Bhau Singh did not regain consciousness and died a day later at the age of 44. Having not had sons, Jahangir appointed as Bhau Singh's successor his great-nephew Jai Singh I, the son of Maha Singh, the latter having died some years earlier under similar circumstances.
# Azan Faqir

Azan Faqir (Arabic: أذان فقير),(Assamese : আজান ফকীৰ) born Shah Miran, also known as Ajan Pir, Hazrat Shah Miran, and Shah Milan (presumably from Miran), was a Sufi Syed, poet, Muslim preacher and saint from the 17th century who came from Baghdad or as per some family sources, Badaun in western UP to settle in the Sibsagar area of Assam in the north-eastern part of India, where he helped to unify the people of the Brahmaputra valley, and to reform, reinforce and stabilise Islam in the region of Assam. The nickname Azan came from his habit of calling azan. He came to Assam in about 1630 from Iraq, that is, approximately 200 years after the birth of Srimanta Sankardev.
According to one version his name was "Hazarat Shah Syed Mainuddin". He is known for his Zikr and Zari, two forms of devotional songs, that draw from local musical traditions and have striking similarities with borgeets of Srimanta Sankardeva, the 16th-century saint-scholar from Assam. In addition, the late renowned author and Sahitya Akademi award winner Syed Abdul Malik states that Azan Fakir was a preacher with profound mastery over the Qur’an, the Hadith and Islamic philosophy.

## Career

Azan Fakir was a disciple of Khwaja Nizamuddin Auliya in Baghdad. He came to Assam accompanied by his brother Shah Navi. He married the daughter of a Muslim named Syed Usman Gani of khandokar village in Rangpur, Assam.
As a Pir he composed Zikrs (a type of spiritual song). Originally he spoke Arabic, but he completely mastered the language of the land he adopted, permitting comparison of his songs to those of his Vaishnava contemporaries.

## The conspiracy

In course of time his influence spread, he acquired a good number of followers and earned the enmity of an Ahom official, Rupai Baruah Dadhora (Rupai Phuke-mit), who by conspiracy convinced the Ahom king that Azan Fakir was a Mughal spy and had orders passed for plucking out the Pir's eyes. The Pir, according to some songs, had two earthen pots brought into which he let his "two eyes drop".He then asked the soldiers to throw the pots into the nearby Dikhow River instead of taking them to the King.

## Aftermath

The king was alarmed and for atonement made land grants to Ajan Fakir at Soraguri Chapari, near Sibsagar and had a matha built for him. This place on the bank of Brahmaputra has become a holy place with Ajan Pir's Dargah where an annual urs is held.
His dargah is at Saraguri Chapari near Sibsagar town.
