La Caravana del manuscrito andalusí is a 2007 documentary film directed by Lidia Peralta García. During the 12th and 15th centuries, in Muslim Spain, many science books were written; when Muslims left Spain, many took their manuscripts with them. Today, one can find them spread in particular libraries, all along the caravan route through Morocco and Mali. From Toledo to Timbuktu, this documentary follows their traces, its protagonist, Ismael Diadié Haidara, owner of the Andalus Library of Timbuktu, has spent years trying to retrieve his family's manuscripts and with them, his own Al Andalus past. The film was produced with the assistance of CEDECOM Malaga; the director, Lidia Peralta García, traveled for five months and covered over 6,000 kilometres on the route from Toledo in Spain to Timbuktu in Mali to make the documentary. According to Peralta, "a documentary like this makes you aware that for many centuries we have shared the same history, while today some have white skin and others black".

Epidendrum rigidum is an epiphytic reed-stemmed Epidendrum orchid common throughout the Neotroical lowlands, below 600 m. E. rigidum has been placed in the subgenus E. subg Epidendrum Lindl. because its sympodial stems do not thicken to form pseudobulbs, its stems are covered by the basal sheaths of its distichous leaves, its peduncle emerges from the apical leaf without being covered by any bract or sheath. The basal parts of the stems unite to form a creeping rhizome; the lathery ovate-oblong obtuse leaves are 3 -- 8 apically bilobed. As with other members of E. subsect. Spathacea Rchb.f. 1861, the racemose inflorescence bears enlarged spathaceous floral bracts. The green, non-resupinate, fleshy flowers are covered by the large, dolabriform bracts; the ovate obtuse sepals are 5 mm long. The linear petals are 5 mm long; as with other members of the genus Epidendrum, the lip is adnate to the column to its apex. The lip is heart-shaped where it diverges from the column and obtuse at the apex; the diploid chromosome number of E. rigidum has been determined as 2n = 40.

An oriel window is a form of bay window which protrudes from the main wall of a building but does not reach to the ground. Supported by corbels, brackets, or similar, an oriel window is most found projecting from an upper floor but is sometimes used on the ground floor. Oriel windows are seen in Arab architecture in the form of mashrabiya. In Islamic culture, these windows and balconies project from the street-front of a house, providing an area in which women could peer out and see the activities below while remaining invisible. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word "oriel" is derived from Anglo-Norman oriell and post-classical Latin oriolum, both meaning "gallery" or "porch" from classical Latin aulaeum, "curtain". Oriel College, took its name from a balcony or oriel window forming a feature of a building which occupied the site the college now stands on. Oriel Chambers in Liverpool was a controversial building when it was built, featuring an entire façade of glass oriel windows.
