Annie Hughes Griffiths
Annie Jane Davies was one of the ten children of Frances (née Humphreys) and Robert Joseph Davies, born in 1873. [1] Members of the family, including her parents and several siblings, were well-connected and leading figures in both local political and religious life. They lived in Cwrt Mawr, a large Georgian mansion near Llangeitho village in Wales. [2] She was sent to schools in Aberystwyth, London and Chester.
She spent most of her life in either Aberystwyth or London. She was at the University College of Wales in Aberystwyth for three years but did not undertake degree studies. She became a public figure due to association with the University College of Wales, the campaign for a Welsh National Library, and membership of the Welsh chapel in Charing Cross.
While she was in London from 1895, housekeeping for two of her brothers, she met Thomas (Tom) Edward Ellis, the Liberal MP for Meirionethshire. They married in June 1898. His health declined, and they went to Cannes in France for him to recover. However, he died in April 1899. She gave birth to their child, Thomas Iorweth in December 1899. In 1916 she married again, to Reverend Peter Hughes Griffiths, the minister at the Welsh chapel in Charing Cross, London.

Nick Longrich is a paleontologist and evolutionary biologist, especially studying dinosaurs.
Nicholas Roy Longrich studied at Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princetown University from 1994, graduating with a BA degree in 1998. He then took an MSc in Organismal Biology and Anatomy at University of Chicago in 200 before undertaking doctoral research with Anthony P. Russell at University of Calgary, being awarded a PhD in 2008 for research on the flight of Archaeopteryx lithographica. [3] [4]
Longrich was a postdoctoral researcher at Yale University from 2009 until 2012. He has been a senior lecturer at University of Bath, UK since 2013. His research focuses on macroevolution, especially utilising the fossil record. Areas he has studies are large scale adaptations such as flight. He has been involved in identifying several new species of dinosaur. [5] In 2018 Longrich was disciplined by University of Bath for breaching its anti-harassment policy. [6]
He was a guest on the BBC Radio 4 programme The Life Scientific in April 2024. [7]
Longrich is the author or co-author of over 85 scientific publications. Some of the most significant are:

This is a tribute to the first female Swedish lichenologlist, Greta Sernander-DuRietz (1897-1981), who had no formal training or exams in botany, but picked up lichenology mainly from her father, the famous professor Rutger Sernander at Växtbio, Uppsala. Her mainly floristic-ecological research came to an abrupt stop after her marriage to the botanist G. Einar DuRietz in 1924. She went with him to New Zealand in 1926-27, where she played an important part in collecting and preserving specimens. Not until after their divorce in 1951 did she work with lichens again. She took up some of her old themes with zest, and made new discoveries just as if no time had passed, and was active until her death.

Anton Wallich-Clifford was influential in changing understanding of the causes of homelessness in the UK and perceptions of homeless people. He was a co-founder of the Simon Community charity.
He had very strong Roman Catholic religious beliefs that led to his work to support homeless people. He married Marie-Therese McQuade (later known as Marie-Therese Gibson-Watt) in 1967. [1]
Wallich-Clifford had been in the RAF and then a probation officer in London during the 1950s and 1960s. His experience with the homeless made him want to try a different approach to what was then in use, that took into account the mental heath of many homeless people. [1]
He was the co-founder of the Simon Community, with Sally Trench or Eddie Linden in 1963 and gave talks about the UK to promote the charity and his ideas. The key feature was that the homeless and charity volunteers were equals and that the homeless were accepted as they were and not expected to change. Other charities for the homeless, such as St Mungo's, Centrepoint [2] and the Cyrenians [3] were founded by people influenced by him, or who had previously worked with the Simon Community. [1]
Wallich-Clifford started the first Simon Community in London.

Meena Upadhyaya is also an advocate for women of ethnic minorities; she is the founder and Chair of Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awards, now Ethnic Minority Welsh Women Achievement Association (EMWWAA)
THE achievements of Welsh Asian women have been celebrated at an awards ceremony in Cardiff.
The Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awards were created by Cardiff University Professor Meena Upadhyaya to recognise those who have made a significant contribution to Welsh life.
Award winners included Indu Deglurkar - a consultant cardiothoracic surgeon at the University Hospital of Wales.
She is just one of only five female consultant cardiac surgeons in the UK.
Rakhshanda Shahzad, director of Service Delivery for Bawso - an all-Wales organisation which provides specialist services to black and ethnic minority women and children fleeing domestic abuse - was also a winner.
And Nirmala Pisavadia took home an award for her work with Sight Cymru, promoting prevention of needless sight loss in black and ethnic minority communities in Wales.
This year's event also featured a Lifetime Achievement Award.
There were three winners - consultant anaesthetist Minakshi Choksi; AngelaKwok, who set up interpretation and translation services; and 74-year-old student Valbai Keshra.
Bablin Molik
MORE than 20 Welsh Asian women have been honoured for their work in everything from arts to science and business.
AngelaKwok, who set up the South Walesa Chinese Women Association in 1984, consultant anaesthetist Dr Minakshi Choksi and adult learner Val-a bai Keshra, were all given lifetime achievement awards at the second annual Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awar a ds.
Presenters at the ceremony at Cardiff's City Hall included former First Minister Rhodri Morgan and vice president of Cardiff University Menna Richards.
A total of 24 women received awards at the ceremony on Saturday. Among them were Bangladeshi-born Dr Bablin Molik who became the first Asian woman in Wales a to fight in a Westminster by-election, when she stood for Cardiff South and Penarth last year.

Provincial Bank of Ireland building, Belfast
In December 1977 it was surveyed and graded of as a high quality building with exceptional architectural or historic interest leading to a
listing, Grade B+ and is currently within a conservation area.
[3]
Located at 2, Royal Avenue. Built by Turner and Williamson.
[4]
Designed by
W.J. Barre. Mid 19th century. Only one from its time still in Royal Avenue. Sandstone.
Neo-Palladian symmetry and
Romanesque detail. From 1996 until 2021 it was a Tesco Metro. In 2022 bought by Belfast City Council and used temporarily for live entertainment. The long-term plan is to use it as a tourist attraction about the history of Belfast.
[5]
Construction started in 1864 and the building was opened in 1869. [3]
Bank of Ireland building, Belfast Grade B+ Designed by J. V. Downes. Four stories Art Deco building. Opened in 1930 and continued to retain its original fabric and details. Neighbouring buildings were demolished in 2015, shortly before they themselves were considered for listing, and as a result the bank building suffered some damage. Closed in 2005. Remained empty, started to become derelict and was placed on the Northern Ireland buildings at risk register. Bought by Belfast City Council in December 2021 for the Belfast Stories tourism project [5] aiming to open in 2028. This will also house the Northern Ireland Screen’s digital film archive. [7]
The diversity of life forms did not increase greatly because of a series of mass extinctions that define widespread biostratigraphic units called biomeres.[141] After each extinction pulse, the continental shelf regions were repopulated by similar life forms that may have been evolving slowly elsewhere.[142]
A biomere is a unit in geology. It involves the use of fossils to define geologically significant boundaries between rock deposits. These boundaries are only seen among fossils, not the rock material. [8] Biomeres are bounded by sudden, non-evolutionary, changes in the fossils in the rock so that all those from one family or lower rank within a phylum are absent. The cause of these abrupt discontinuities and more detailed definition of a biomere have been continuing discussion among geologists. [9] The consensus is that biomeres are caused by repeated local extinctions and then re-population. [10]
The concept of the biomere was introduced by Allison R. Palmer in the mid-1960s to solve problems in interpreting the sedimentary rock record of the Cambrian and more recent periods. [8] It has subsequently been used widely in assessing shoreline geological deposits, particularly in North America. [10] The biomere concept was developed further by Stitt [11]: 34–38

In 1783, the Society ceased to exist separately and was absorbed by the Accademia dei Georgofili, the first agricultural academy in Europe, founded in 1753 (information taken from the historical section of the Società Botanica Italiana website). The Society seems never to have published a journal. Additional information may be found in a brief historical webpage on the Società Botanica Fiorentina.]

The generic name Yarrumia honours James Murray (1923–1961) "who first detected polyporic acid in the two species comprising the genus, and who contributed so much to New Zealand lichenology, subsequent to his initial interest in the chemistry of Yarrumia coronata dating from 1949". [1]

She died around 1998. Read https://www.thehikeguy.com/2014/05/13/stephen-sharnoff/
She was the driving force behind the 795 page book, "Lichens of North America", published in 2001 with high-quality photographs of lichens taken by Sharnoff and her husband Stephen Sharnoff and lichen identification by the Canadian lichenologist Irwin M. Brodo. She led the collaboration and worked with her huband to obtain funding and travel around North America to both photograph the lichens and give talks about them. It won the 2002 National Outdoor Book Award (Nature Guidebook). [2]

Meena Upadhyaya is also an advocate for women of ethnic minorities; she is the founder and Chair of Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awards, now Ethnic Minority Welsh Women Achievement Association (EMWWAA)
THE achievements of Welsh Asian women have been celebrated at an awards ceremony in Cardiff.
The Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awards were created by Cardiff University Professor Meena Upadhyaya to recognise those who have made a significant contribution to Welsh life.
Award winners included Indu Deglurkar - a consultant cardiothoracic surgeon at the University Hospital of Wales.
She is just one of only five female consultant cardiac surgeons in the UK.
Rakhshanda Shahzad, director of Service Delivery for Bawso - an all-Wales organisation which provides specialist services to black and ethnic minority women and children fleeing domestic abuse - was also a winner.
And Nirmala Pisavadia took home an award for her work with Sight Cymru, promoting prevention of needless sight loss in black and ethnic minority communities in Wales.
This year's event also featured a Lifetime Achievement Award.
There were three winners - consultant anaesthetist Minakshi Choksi; AngelaKwok, who set up interpretation and translation services; and 74-year-old student Valbai Keshra.
Bablin Molik
MORE than 20 Welsh Asian women have been honoured for their work in everything from arts to science and business.
AngelaKwok, who set up the South Walesa Chinese Women Association in 1984, consultant anaesthetist Dr Minakshi Choksi and adult learner Val-a bai Keshra, were all given lifetime achievement awards at the second annual Welsh Asian Women Achievement Awar a ds.
Presenters at the ceremony at Cardiff's City Hall included former First Minister Rhodri Morgan and vice president of Cardiff University Menna Richards.
A total of 24 women received awards at the ceremony on Saturday. Among them were Bangladeshi-born Dr Bablin Molik who became the first Asian woman in Wales a to fight in a Westminster by-election, when she stood for Cardiff South and Penarth last year.

Provincial Bank of Ireland building, Belfast
In December 1977 it was surveyed and graded of as a high quality building with exceptional architectural or historic interest leading to a
listing, Grade B+ and is currently within a conservation area.
[3]
Located at 2, Royal Avenue. Built by Turner and Williamson.
[4]
Designed by
W.J. Barre. Mid 19th century. Only one from its time still in Royal Avenue. Sandstone.
Neo-Palladian symmetry and
Romanesque detail. From 1996 until 2021 it was a Tesco Metro. In 2022 bought by Belfast City Council and used temporarily for live entertainment. The long-term plan is to use it as a tourist attraction about the history of Belfast.
[5]
Construction started in 1864 and the building was opened in 1869. [3]
Bank of Ireland building, Belfast Grade B+ Designed by J. V. Downes. Four stories Art Deco building. Opened in 1930 and continued to retain its original fabric and details. Neighbouring buildings were demolished in 2015, shortly before they themselves were considered for listing, and as a result the bank building suffered some damage. Closed in 2005. Remained empty, started to become derelict and was placed on the Northern Ireland buildings at risk register. Bought by Belfast City Council in December 2021 for the Belfast Stories tourism project [5] aiming to open in 2028. This will also house the Northern Ireland Screen’s digital film archive. [7]
The diversity of life forms did not increase greatly because of a series of mass extinctions that define widespread biostratigraphic units called biomeres.[141] After each extinction pulse, the continental shelf regions were repopulated by similar life forms that may have been evolving slowly elsewhere.[142]
A biomere is a unit in geology. It involves the use of fossils to define geologically significant boundaries between rock deposits. These boundaries are only seen among fossils, not the rock material. [8] Biomeres are bounded by sudden, non-evolutionary, changes in the fossils in the rock so that all those from one family or lower rank within a phylum are absent. The cause of these abrupt discontinuities and more detailed definition of a biomere have been continuing discussion among geologists. [9] The consensus is that biomeres are caused by repeated local extinctions and then re-population. [10]
The concept of the biomere was introduced by Allison R. Palmer in the mid-1960s to solve problems in interpreting the sedimentary rock record of the Cambrian and more recent periods. [8] It has subsequently been used widely in assessing shoreline geological deposits, particularly in North America. [10] The biomere concept was developed further by Stitt [11]: 34–38
