# Ismail Riahi

Ismail Riahi (1907-2000) was an Iranian military officer, who also served as minister of agriculture. Part of one of the most famous Chaleshtar families, his elder brother, Colonel Dr. Mohammad Riahi, was the president of the University of Isfahan, who devoted all his personal land to the expansion of the university. His other brother was Ibrahim, the Minister of Health in the second Pahlavi era. Ismail went through the military step by step and in 1960 he became a lieutenant general in the army and then deputy chief of staff of the army.

## Ministerial period

During his ministerial period, the land reform that had begun before him continued. During his time as Minister, the White Revolution took place, one of the foundations of which was land reform.
With his departure from the Ministry of Agriculture, the ministry was transformed into the Ministry of Agriculture, Agricultural Production and Natural Resources (apparently in the second cabinet), and a series of changes were made to the minister's authority.

## After the ministerial period

From 1971 to 1978, he was the head of the Southern Fisheries Department.

# Cetrariella

Cetrariella is a genus of foliose lichens in the family Parmeliaceae. It contains three species.

## Taxonomy

The genus was circumscribed in 1993 by lichenologists Ingvar Kärnefelt and Arne Thell, with Cetrariella delisei assigned as the type species. Cetrariella was created as a segregate of genus Cetraria, since previous studies on ascus structure demonstrated that some species placed in Cetraria did not belong there.
In 2017, Divakar and colleagues used a recently developed "temporal phylogenetic" approach to identify temporal bands for specific taxonomic ranks in the family Parmeliaceae, suggesting that groups of species that diverged within the time window of 29.45–32.55 million years ago represent genera. They proposed to synonymize Cetrariella with Cetraria, along with several other Parmelioid genera, so that all the genera within the Parmeliaceae are about the same age. Although some of their proposed taxonomic changes were accepted, the synonymization of Cetrariella with Cetraria was not accepted in a later critical analysis of the temporal banding technique for lichen classification.

## Description

Cetrariella species grow on the ground (terricolous) and on rocks (saxicolous). They have an upper and lower cortex, both of which are single-layered and measure 15–40 μm. Their ascus is broadly club-shaped (clavate), with dimensions of about 40 by 15 μm, while the ascospores are ellipsoidal, measuring 5–10 by 2.5–5 μm. Secondary compounds present include gyrophoric acid and hiascic acid.

## Species

* Cetrariella delisei (Bory ex Schaer.) Kärnefelt & A.Thell 1993)
* Cetrariella fastigiata (Delise ex Nyl.) Kärnefelt & A.Thell 1993)
* Cetrariella sorediella (Lettau) V.J.Rico & A.Thell (2011)
Cetrariella commixta, a lichen transferred to Cetrariella in 2004, is now a member of Melanelia.

# John Rolle (Parliamentarian)

John Rolle (1598–1648) was a Turkey Merchant and also served as MP for the Rolle family's controlled borough of Callington, Cornwall, in 1626 and 1628 and for Truro, Cornwall, in 1640 for the Short Parliament and in November 1640 for the Long Parliament. He supported the Parliamentarian side in the English Civil War.

## Origins

John Rolle was baptised 13 April 1598 at Petrockstowe, Devon, the 4th son of Robert Rolle (d. 1633) of Heanton Satchville in the parish of Petrockstowe, Devon, by his wife Joan Hele, daughter of Thomas Hele of Fleet, Devon. John was a great-grandson, in a junior line, of George Rolle (c.1486-1552) of Stevenstone, Devon, founder of the influential and wealthy Rolle family of Devon, Keeper of the Records of the Court of Common Pleas and MP for Barnstaple in 1542 and 1545. John's elder brothers included:
* Sir Samuel I Rolle (c.1588-1647), eldest brother, of Heanton Satchville, Member of Parliament for Callington, Cornwall in 1640 and for Devon 1641-1647 and a supporter of the parliamentary side in the Civil War.
* Sir Henry Rolle (1589–1656), of Shapwick in Somerset, Chief Justice of the King’s Bench and MP for Callington, Cornwall, (1614-1623-4) and for Truro, Cornwall (1625- 1629)

## Career

John Rolle was a Turkey Merchant. He was elected Member of Parliament (MP) for Callington in the parliaments of 1626 and 1628. In 1628 he refused to pay tonnage and poundage when King Charles I continued to levy the charge in defiance of Parliament. Silks and other goods to the value of £1,517 were seized from him by the customs authorities, and he was forced into a lengthy lawsuit in order to recover them. Writs issued by the courts on his behalf were blocked by order of the Privy Council and the Exchequer, and he was summoned by the king before the Court of Star Chamber, which the House of Commons treated as a breach of its parliamentary privilege, as it was then debating the legitimacy of seizure of merchants' goods by the crown. Rolle's property was not returned and as a result he ceased his trading activities. In 1630 following the dissolution of Parliament, Rolle was again summoned before the Star Chamber and was questioned about speeches made by him in the Commons.
In April 1640 Rolle was elected MP for Truro in the Short Parliament and was re-elected in November 1640 for the Long Parliament. He adhered to the Parliamentary cause on the outbreak of Civil War. In 1641 Parliament instructed the committee of trade to investigate his case and after some delay in 1644 it made its report, as a result of which Rolle was voted full compensation for the sum seized from him and for losses he had suffered, covering his legal expenses and his losses from his refusal to trade after 1628. The expense was met by a fine on the executors of the Farmers of Customs and on Sir William Acton, 1st Baronet, the Sheriff of London who had been in office in 1628.

## Death

Rolle died unmarried and was buried at Petrockstowe on 18 November 1648.
# Hillcrest, Douglas County, Illinois

Hillcrest is an unincorporated community in Douglas County, Illinois, United States. Hillcrest is located immediately to the south of Tuscola.
# Humerana oatesii

Humerana oatesii is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is endemic to Burma. This species is only known from type series collected from "near Toungoo" in the Pegu Range. The specific name oatesii honours Eugene W. Oates, English civil servant and naturalist who collected the type series. However, the common name Toungoo frog has been proposed for it.

## Description

The type series consists of two males and two females. The males measure 63–80 mm (2.5–3.1 in) and the females 50–78 mm (2.0–3.1 in) in snout–vent length. The head is longer than it is wide and strongly dorsoventrally compressed. The snout is pointed and long. The tympanum is very distinct. The fingers are long with poorly developed discs. The toes have very small discs and almost full webbing. Skin is dorsally finely granulate. A prominent dorsolater fold runs from the tympanum to the hip. Dorsal colouration is black (uniform or marbled with pale brown) with five whitish lengthwise streaks. The lower parts are white, possibly spotted with brown. Males have large paired vocal sacs.

## Habitat and conservation

The specific habitat requirements of this species are unknown, but the larvae are presumed to be aquatic. Despite surveys at the type locality, there are no records of this species after the collection of the type series. The main threats to it are extensive wildfires and logging in the Pegu Range.
# Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival

The Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival is a film festival held in Edinburgh in October every year at the Filmhouse, with additional screenings in Stirling, Manchester, Aberdeen, and Glasgow.

## History

The festival was first created in September 2013 by Marian A. Aréchaga, a Senior Teaching Fellow at the University of Edinburgh who acts as curator and organiser of the event. Aréchaga claims to have been inspired by the examples set by the French and Italian Film Festivals that were already running in the city, which encouraged her to address the lack of Hispanic representation in the city's film festivals.
With the cooperation of the Spanish Ministry of Culture and the Hispanic Studies department at her University, the Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival was established.

## Objectives

The festival aims at promoting the Spanish language and culture, as well as its film industry in the international community.

## Events

Every year a diverse selection of films from Latin America and Spain are screened at Filmhouse Edinburgh and other British cities, including Manchester, Stirling, Aberdeen, and Glasgow. The program is designed to include, according to Aréchaga, “something for everyone, from children and young people to the most seasoned cinema buffs”.
The festival opened in September 2014 with In a Foreign Land, a documentary by Icíar Bollaín about Spanish expatriates in Edinburgh that had first been screened at the Saint Sebastian Film Festival. The program includes numerous films, short films, animated features, and documentaries. In 2019 it was extended to include audiovisual letters and in 2020 a series of monologues produced during the pandemic.
Although there is not a specific theme for each edition, the organisation prioritises new directors and the most relevant films of the last years produced in the Spanish community.

# James Aylward (cricketer)

James Aylward (1741 – December 1827) was an English cricketer who played during the 18th-century.
A prominent left-handed batsman, Aylward played in a total of 107 first-class matches between 1773 and 1797. He was born at Warnford, near Droxford in Hampshire and is first recorded as a cricketer in 1773, playing for the Hambledon Club in Hampshire. Aylward was 32 at the time, and Arthur Haygarth suggests that it is likely he played cricket prior to this. He played a total of 33 matches for Hampshire sides that are now considered first class.
In 1777 Aylward set a record score of 167 runs whilst playing for a Hampshire XI against an England side at Sevenoaks Vine. This remained the record first-class score until 1820.
In 1779 Sir Horatio Mann, a noted Kent cricket patron, employed Aylward as a water bailiff at Bourne Park House in Bishopsbourne near Canterbury, after which he played mainly for Kent sides as "Kent’s first batsman of true class". As well as 32 matches for Kent, he played four times for East Kent, once for both the Gentlemen of Kent and a combined Kent and Hampshire side and three times for Mann's XI as well as 22 times for England sides.
Aylward later became the landlord of The White Horse at Bridge close to Bishopsbourne. He lived in London later in his life and died at Edward Street in Marylebone in December 1827 aged 85 or 86. He was buried on 27 December at St John's Wood Churchyard, close to Lord's Cricket Ground.
