# Taasisi ya Taaluma za Kiswahili

Taasisi ya Taaluma za Kiswahili (Institute of Kiswahili Studies), known by its acronym TATAKI, is a research body dedicated to the research of the Kiswahili language and literature at the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.

## History

The institute was founded as the Interterritorial Language Committee in 1930 under British colonial rule in East Africa tasked with creating a standardized form of the language from 17 dialects. The Kiunguja dialect spoken in Zanzibar was chosen as the base. The committee was also involved in the standardizing spelling as well as coining new words.
The committee was reorganized into a purely academic institution as Taasisi ya Uchunguzi wa Kiswahili (TUKI) (Institute of Kiswahili Research) in 1964 and integrated into the University of Dar es Salaam in 1970. The standardization functions of the committee were transferred to the Baraza la Kiswahili la Taifa.
The institute received its current name in 2009 when it merged with the University of Dar es Salaam's Department of Kiswahili to form a full-fledged school within the university.

## Activities

Research activities at the institute is divided into a number of sections - Lexicography, Linguistics, and Literature The Lexicography section of the institute is responsible for creation of dictionaries and terminologies for specialized areas. The first Kiswahili dictionary was compiled in 1981 In addition, specialized dictionaries have been compiled in areas such social science, language and linguistics and science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology).
The Linguistics section conducts research into morphology, phonology, syntax, sociolinguistics and dialectology. The first book on Swahili morphology was published in 1984.
The Literature section conducts research into the oral and written literature in the Kiswahili language.
The institute's purely academic role is in contrast to that of the Baraza la Kiswahili la Taifa (BAKITA), which has a more political role in advocating for Kiswahili as a means of national integration in Tanzania. As such, the responsibility for standardizing the language lies with the latter organization. The institute can propose new vocabulary to respond to emerging needs but only BAKITA can approve usage.
# Veevers crater

Veevers crater is an impact crater located on a flat desert plain between the Great Sandy and Gibson Deserts in the centre of the state of Western Australia.
The site is very remote and difficult to visit. The crater was discovered from the air in July 1975 during a government geological survey and named in honour of Australian geologist John Veevers who had worked in the area in the late 1970s. At the time of discovery a meteorite impact origin was suspected, but could not be proven. The subsequent discovery of iron meteorite fragments around the crater by E.M. and C.S. Shoemaker in 1987 removed any doubt about its origin.

## Description

The crater has a symmetrical bowl-shaped topography and is considered to be one of the best preserved small meteorite craters on Earth. The 20 m (66 ft) wide rim rises about 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) above the plain, while the deepest point of the central depression is 7 m (23 ft) below the rim crest; the rim to rim diameter averages about 70 m (230 ft). Based on cosmogenic nuclide exposure dating of the crater walls, the crater is less than 20 thousand years old, while the pristine state of preservation of the ejecta has been used to suggest that it may in fact be less than 4 thousand years old.
The iron meteorite fragments collected around the crater are classified as a coarse octahedrite belonging to chemical class IIAB; the fragments show considerable evidence of deformation presumably related to the impact explosion. It has been inferred that the original meteorite was in the size range of 100–1,000 tonnes (220–2,200 thousand pounds), probably closer to the latter, now dispersed as fragments within the crater breccia and ejecta.

# Mazhir ben Abraham

Mazhir ben Abraham (Hebrew: מזהיר בן אברהם, died after 1191), known as Rabbi Mazhir the Third (Hebrew: רבינו מזהיר השלישי) was a senior member of the remnant of the Palestinian Gaonate in Damascus, a cantor, and a liturgical poet.

## Overview

Mazhir was the son of Abraham ben Mazhir, the Gaon in Damascus. Mazhir first appears in a poem of Isaac Ibn Ezra from 1142 dedicated to Mazhir's father that mentions his four children, including Mazhir. When Benjamin of Tudela visited Damascus in around 1168 he does not mention Mazhir, who had not yet assumed his position as the Third.
A letter from the Iraqi Gaon Samuel ben Ali from 1191 mentions "the honorable elderly Mazhir the Third". Scholars debate how to interpret the letter. According to Assaf and Fleischer the letter was written to Mazhir, who was then leading the Yeshiva but for whatever reason did not assume the title Gaon and remained as "The Third" (the level below Av Beit Din in the Palestinian Yeshiva). Mann disagreed and read the letter as saying that Mazhir was serving as the Third under a nephew of his, Abraham, a son of his brother Ezra.
Mazhir was also a cantor. This is known from the fact that he signs his name in one of the acrostics of his poems as "Mazhir the cantor".
A poem in honor of Mazhir was found in the Cairo Genizah.

## Poetry

Mazhir was a paytan, a liturgical poet, and a number of his compositions have survived, primarily in mahzorim of the Old Aleppo Rite. His poetry has been gathered and published with critical notes by Ezra Fleischer. Mazhir is unique among paytanim in his consistent use of enjambment in his poems.

# The Butt

The Butt is a 2008 satirical novel by Will Self.

## Content

The story revolves around Tom, a tourist (presumed to be American, although that is never made clear) visiting an unnamed country that seems to be a mix of Africa, Middle East, Caribbean and Australia. He becomes embroiled in a legal minefield when flicking a cigarette butt, his last before quitting, off his holiday apartment balcony. The resulting arc causes the butt to burn and injure an elderly man. His ensuing journey to make suitable reparations takes him across the entire country with its different territories and rules. His company on this trip comes in the form of Brian Prentice, another tourist (presumably British) who is concerned more with the cricket match in the capital than the dangerous trip, and whom Tom suspects is a paedophile.

## Reviews

Writing for The Daily Telegraph, Jane Shilling wrote...
   Self writes here with an adroit impersonation of coarse exuberance that makes The Butt as readable as a blokeish airport novel (though with a fuddlingly large vocabulary). But just beneath the brash surface shimmer the unmistakable apparitions of Self’s masters: Swift, Voltaire and Lewis Carroll are all partly responsible for the ingenious, mephitic invention that is The Butt.
Michael Bywater, writing for The Independent wrote...
   Hard to enumerate what Self has sodded up here, right? Australia. Aboriginal councils. Sharia law. Live Aid. Western "respect" for other "folkways". The whole damn planet. And all the things Self's Australia isn't, or might be: Africa, the Middle East, Papua New Guinea. He's wrapped it up and crushed it out of shape, and the absurd ending exists really to be unnecessary. Things have gone far enough, anyway. The Butt is a hideously engaged, overwritten, barking masterpiece. You're going to read it, that's for sure, but don't say I didn't warn you.
# Sugar Riot

Sugar Riot was a riot that occurred in Novonikolayevsk, Russia, on 9 November 1916. The unrest was the result of shortage of sugar.

## Background

During World War I, rationing was introduced, and food distribution was often delayed.
In early November 1916, Novonikolayevsk received a shipment of sugar. Then an announcement was made that sugar will be issued from November 9 (3 pounds per person). But it soon became known that half of the products belong to cooperatives. Then the city government made an announcement in the press that sugar distribution is off.

## Riot

On 9 November a crowd of women began to gather in front of the food store of the city government, which was located at Bazarnaya Square.
The Novonikolayevsk Police led by the police chief G. P. Bukhartovsky dispersed the crowd. However, soon the crowd began to gather again. According to the Governor, protesters returned thanks to incitement by new recruits and two lower ranks who returned only recently from the battlefields.
Then, to suppress the crowd, military reinforcements of 25 people arrived under the command of staff captain Nikitin.
After some time, Bukhartovsky was injured by several stones. He requested Nikitin to take the necessary measures to quell the riot and left the place of protests.
Then, several warning shots were fired, but it didn't scare the protesters. People went towards the store of the Siberian Partnership, smashed the window panes and entered into the store, where they began robbing products. However, police and soldiers were able to prevent further looting of the shop. During the defense of the Siberian Partnership, Nikitin was injured by a rock to the head after which he transferred command to the ensign and left Bazarnaya Square.
Some time later, the number of rioters increases to several thousands. Reinforcements arrived from the local military team, led by Lt. Col. Nekrasov, but, despite the assistance, the crowd swept away the defense, broke the doors and windows of the store and began to rob sugar. Then Nekrasov ordered to shoot at protesters, as a result of which one woman died and five people were injured (of which one woman died in the hospital later).
After some time, four training teams of 250 people led by Lieutenant General Kotsurik arrive and drive back the crowd, but the protesters continued to rob other retail outlets of private entrepreneurs, as well as the shops of the Ekonomia Consumer Society.

## Damage

During the riot, 400 pounds of sugar were stolen. The damage from the mass robbery of the Siberian Partnership amounted to 10,000 rubles.

## Judicial proceedings

After the riots, 74 people were detained, 54 of them were women. 23 people were taken into custody and sentenced by the Omsk Judicial Chamber to various prison terms.
