# Immanuel Kauluma Elifas

Omukwaniilwa Immanuel Kauluma Elifas (c. 1 January 1934 in Epale – 26 March 2019 in Onandjokwe) was the omukwaniilwa (or chief) of Ondonga, a sub-tribe of Owambo people since 28 August 1975, in Namibia having succeeded his brother the late Chief Fillemon Elifas Shuumbwa who was gunned down the same year at Onamagongwa. The Ondonga tribal area is situated around Namutoni on the eastern edge of Etosha pan in northern Namibia. Kauluma was also the Chairperson of the Council of Traditional Leaders for many years. He was succeeded as King by the designate Omukwaniilwa of Ondonga, his great-grandson Fillemon Shuumbwa Nangolo.

## Biography

Omukwaniilwa Kauluma was one of the longest serving leaders of the Ondonga kingdom, having ascended to the throne in August 1975. He served for 44 years as the king of Ondonga Kingdom; Nembungu lyAmutundu 1750 – ca. 1820 (Iinenge) was the last ruler to rule for 60 years. The Ondonga kingdom has been rocked by infighting linked to the succession battle in recent years.
Elifas named his nephew Fillemon Shuumbwa Nangolo as his successor in 2002 and confirmed to government again in June 2012. Nangolo's nomination was, however, disputed by the Ondonga royal family. This led to irreconcilable differences, which saw Elifas getting rid of some of his long-serving top aides, who have been backing Prince Nangolo as heir apparent. In July 2017, Elifas dismissed the late former Ondonga Traditional Authority (OTA) chairperson Peter Kauluma and former OTA spokesperson Joseph Asino. Heavyweights such as senior headman John Walenga and former Oshikoto governor Vilho Kamanya were also expelled from the traditional authority. Three other councillors - Kashona kaMalulu, Tonata Ngulu and Fillemon Nambili – were also dismissed.
The infighting turned nasty as the dismissed councillors turned to the courts and an order was granted in the Oshakati High Court compelling Elifas to give oral testimony. At the time, Elifas’ legal team argued that the application to have the king testify was an attempt to test his mental capabilities in an open court. Several leaders, including head of state Hage Geingob and former president Sam Nujoma also tried to intervene in the impasse. At one point, Geingob summoned the factions to State House of Namibia and pleaded with the dismissed councillors to drop the court case so that the king would not be "paraded in court of law and embarrassed in front of his people". Shilongo Uukule was the king's senior advisor.

# Konkani Muslims

Konkani Muslims (or Kokani Muslims) are an ethnoreligious subgroup of the Konkani people of the Konkani region along the west coast of India, who practice Islam. Nawayath and "Nakhuda" Muslims from the North Canara district of Karnataka have similar origin as Konkani Muslims, but show a distinct ethnolinguistic identity due to geographical isolation of the Canara coast from the Konkan coast.

## Geography

The Konkani Muslim community forms a part of the larger Konkani-speaking demographic and are predominantly located in the Konkan division of the Indian state of Maharashtra. This includes the administrative districts of Mumbai, Mumbai Suburban, Palghar, Thane, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg.
There is a diaspora Konkani Muslim community based in Persian Gulf states, the United Kingdom, and South Africa. Some Konkani Muslims migrated to Pakistan during the Partition of India in 1947, and are presently settled in Karachi, as part of the larger Muhajir community.

## History

Since antiquity, the Konkan coast has had mercantile relations with major ports on the Red Sea and Persian Gulf. Konkani Muslims can trace their ancestry to traders from Hadhramaut (in Yemen or South Arabia), the North of Indian (Haryana/Punjab) and other parts of Arabia and the Middle East, who visited the Konkan coast between the seventh and eighth centuries AD and fled persecution in North India, during the rule of the Chalukya and Rashtrakuta dynasties. In the later eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Konkani Muslims became influential sailors, merchants, and government employees as the port city of Bombay (present Mumbai) began developing.

## Demography

Ancestry formed the basis for social stratification: Konkani people are direct descendants of Arab traders formed an elite class over those who had indirect descent through intermarriages with local women converts to Islam. The Konkani people have a varied ethnic background as most Muslims within the region are descendants of people who migrated from the Delhi region, Hadhramaut (in Yemen or South Arabia), Iran and other parts of Arabia and the Middle East.

## Religion

Konkani Muslims follow the Shafi’i Islamic jurisprudence This is in contrast to the Deccan regions, where Muslims adhere to the Hanafi school.

## Language

Konkanis speak a variety of dialects of Konkani collectively called Maharashtrian Konkani.

## Cuisine

The cuisine of Konkani Muslims is meat and seafood. Its staple food is rice and bread made of rice (preferred at dinners) with meat/fish and lentils or vegetables. It is mainly influenced by Kashmiri people who settled in the late 1800s fleeing tensions in the North of India.

## Notable Konkani Muslims

* Rafiq Zakaria - Indian politician, ex-Deputy Chairman, Rajya Sabha & Cabinet Minister in Maharashtra State
* Abdul Rehman Antulay - Indian politician, ex-Chief Minister of Maharashtra
* Hamid Dalwai - writer and social reformer
* Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar, Indian crime boss and terrorist

# Noam Shazeer

Noam Shazeer (born 1975 or 1976) is an American computer scientist and entrepreneur known for his contributions to the field of artificial intelligence and deep learning, particularly in the development of transformer models and natural language processing.

## Career

Noam Shazeer joined Google in 2000. One of his first major achievements was improving the spelling corrector of Google's search engine. In 2017, Shazeer was one of the lead authors of the seminal paper "Attention Is All You Need", which introduced the transformer architecture.
At Google, Shazeer and his colleague Daniel de Freitas built a chatbot named Meena. Following the refusal of Google to release the chatbot to the public, Shazeer and Freitas left the company in 2021 to found Character.AI.
In 2023 Time magazine chose Shazeer as one of the 100 most influential people in the AI world.
In August 2024, it was reported that Shazeer would be returning to Google to co-lead the Gemini AI project. Shazeer was appointed as technical lead on Gemini, along with Jeff Dean and Oriol Vinyals. It was part of a $2.7 billion deal for Google to license Character's technology. Since he owns 30-40% of the company, it is estimated he netted $750 million-$1 billion.

## Views

Shazeer said about artificial general intelligence that he doesn't "particularly care about AGI in the sense of wanting something that can do absolutely everything a person can do”. When asked in 2023 if he is afraid that AGI will destroy the world, he said: "No. Not yet. [...] We’re going to work on it as the technology improves".
When asked why do large language models work he answered: "My best guess is divine benevolence [...] Nobody really understands what’s going on. This is a very experimental science [...] It’s more like alchemy or whatever chemistry was in the Middle Ages.”

# Kvernberget

Kvernberget (lit. 'Mill Cliff' or 'Mill Mountain') is a barren mountain formation with a maximum elevation of 205 metres (673 ft). The mountain is located on the island of Nordlandet on the western edge of the town of Kristiansund in Kristiansund Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. Kristiansund Airport, Kvernberget, which sits nearby, takes its name from the mountain.
For a number of years, Kvernberget and the surrounding area have been popular for hiking and simple mountaineering activities, and the summit is Kristiansund's most popular hiking destination. From the summit, much of the Nordmøre district of Møre og Romsdal county may be seen in fair weather. A drinking water reservoir is located inside the mountain.

## Navigation

By the early Middle Ages, there was already a need to navigate the ocean north of Nordmøre, a long time before 1742, the year Kristiansund became a town. The most important urban area of Nordmøre in the Middle Ages was the fishing village of Grip, an island in the ocean north of Kristiansund. For the fishermen in the area, it was important to find their regular fishing places, so they observed the land and used mountains such as Kvernberget and other landmarks to find their way.

## History

Løwenørn, a Danish mariner, described this part of the Norwegian coast in 1791–1803. He tells that Kvernberget was used by the navigators on board ships just outside Trondheimsleia. He mentions all the mountains on shore: Skarven (on Tustna), Stemshesten, Magnillberget, Freikollen, Quærn-Bierget (an old-fashioned way to spell Kvernberget), and Plak-Myssen.

## Name

The name Kvernberget is probably a thousand years old, and refers to the mountain's resemblance to a medieval Quern-stone of a form which is still used in North Africa today. Fishermen working in the sea off of the island and fishing village of Grip navigated by the mountain, which they named after the tool they had at home, the hand mill for grinding corn to flour.
A lot of mountains along the Norwegian shore are obviously named because they look like something. Bjønnahaugen (the bears hill), on Nordlandet in Kristiansund, looks like a sleeping bear. On Averøya, west of Kristiansund, is a mountain that is called Bremsneshatten, which is thought to look like a hat. Løwenørn calls it Plak-Myssen (a kind of seal), in the Middle Ages it was probably Brimill. The mountain looks like the head of a seal sticking out of the seabed.
* Kvernberget seen from the island Grip.
* A hand-mill was a tool nearly everyone knew in the Middle Ages.
# David Lasky

David Lasky is an alternative cartoonist based in Seattle, Washington.

## Biography

After spending the bulk of his early life in Virginia, and graduating from the College of William & Mary, Lasky moved to Seattle in 1992. He quickly found a circle of young comic book artists—including Megan Kelso, Tom Hart, Ed Brubaker, Jon Lewis, and Jason Lutes—drawing and publishing their own work. With them, Lasky aspired to take clichéd or neglected genres of comics and revitalize them with the lessons learned from the first wave of alternative comics.
Lasky's first two full-length comic books, Arrabbiata Comics and Monster City Comics, were created in collaboration with printmaker Paul Bonelli under the name Fistball Productions. In 1993, Lasky won a grant from the Xeric Foundation to self–publish his comic Boom Boom. With this nudge, Boom Boom graduated from its minicomic format, added a color cover, and began to take on its mature form as part history, part graphic novel, part surreal cartography. In 1994–1995, Aeon Publications published four issues of Boom Boom. Lasky used the layout style of Jack Kirby for the James Joyce biography in Boom Boom #2.
Throughout the 90s, Pulse magazine (a now defunct publication of Tower Records) published a series of Lasky's comic biographies and musical impressions. These full-page cartoons were collages of image, text and story that stretched the limits of comic art and became a kind of visual essay. Those featured included Beethoven, Bob Dylan, and legendary saxophonist Lester Young.
Lasky's contribution to the comic book anthology Two–Fisted Science (written by Jim Ottaviani) chronicles the life of physicist Richard Feynman during his time with the Manhattan Project at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Lasky continued to push the boundaries of traditional comics in his collaborations with Greg Stump, Urban Hipster (published by Alternative Comics), which was nominated in 1999 for the Harvey Award for best new series.
Lasky's latest project is Don't Forget This Song, a graphic novel biography of the Carter Family, written with Frank Young. (An excerpt of the book was published in Kramers Ergot volume 4.) The book was published in 2012 by Abrams Books., and it was joint-winner of the 2013 Eisner Award for Best Reality-Based Work.
Lasky has been nominated for numerous Ignatz Awards, and has also served on the Ignatz Award jury.
# Wangu wa Makeri

Wangũ wa Makeri (c. 1856–1915 or 1936) was a Kikuyu tribal chief, known as a headman, during the British Colonial period in Kenya. She was the only female Kikuyu headman during the period, who later resigned following a scandal in which she engaged in a Kibata dance,this was the ultimate transgression since kibata was never to be danced by women.

## Early life

Wangũ Wa Makeri was born around 1856 in Gìtie village to Gatuìka Macharia and Wakerū. She had no formal education, instead working on her parents’ farm as a labourer. It was there that she met her husband, Makeri wa Mbogo. Together, they raised their six children in a traditional Kikuyu home in Weithaga, within the modern Central Province of Kenya.

## Headman

She entered into a relationship with the paramount chief of Fort Hall (now Murang'a), Karuri wa Gakure, after he stopped on occasion in her village and stayed with the family. Her husband knew about this, and in response was offered the position of headman, which he declined. Instead, Gakure offered the position to Makeri, which she accepted in 1902. This was at a time when the position was exclusively male-only, and Makeri was the only female headman of the Kikuyu during the whole of the British Colonial period.
By this time, the British colonial authorities had begun a taxation system, enforced by other locals. Makeri acted as the go-between for the Kikuyu and these authorities, under which she became a controversial figure to her people. She was later described as an authoritarian tax collector, who would intimidate tax evaders and imprison them in solitary confinement. Makeri would use those people as seats, sitting on their backs as they knelt. She sent one of her sons to the local mission school in 1903.

### Resignation

Her relationship with Gakure continued throughout the period in which she was headman. At a meeting between 2 and 4 June 1909, she engaged in a Kibata dance during which her grass skirt fell off leaving her naked. This was an exclusively male warrior dance, and as a result of the scandal, she was forced to resign from office with Ikai wa Gathimba replacing her. One of her sons, Muchiri, would later become headman himself. Makeri died in 1915. Wangu's reign is quite similar to a time long in the past when women took over power and leadership from the men and ruled ruthlessly. This is due to the rampant alcoholism in men of the days. It took the efforts of an age-set called Ndemi na Mathathi to save the boy child from alcoholism. They proceeded to impregnate all the women at the same time. At their weakness due to pregnancy, the men retook leadership.
