My introduction to British English was the Cockney accent in 'My Fair Lady.'

I have tried to maintain a kone (sp?) accent, but it is evident to people from the North (and to myself at times) that I come from Texas. I don't sound like the people on 'King of the Hill,' but it's still there. It's annoying to me, because I want to sound like the internal voice I hear when reading, which is unaccented American English. Sometimes I manage it, sometimes not.

I've found that my favorite British accent is whatever Margaret Thatcher uses. She sounds marvelous, and I know it's the way she normally speaks, wereas, with actors, I know their accents are quite often faked.

The biggest accent shock of my life was hearing Lucy Lawless' New Zealand accent after hearing her Xena accent. It was horrible. (g)

M. Moravius Piscinus Horatianus Consul: T. Iulio Sabino Consuli
collegae, Praetoribus, Tribunibus Plebis, Senatoribus Patribus
Mátribusque Conscriptís: salutem plurimam dicit:

The voting period has now ended. My preliminary count has all Agenda
Items passing by strong margins. Everyone may review the results
below.

I wish to thank all the members of the Senate and all the magistrates
of this year for your patience and your participation. Where we have
had some disagreements this year, I have always found opposing
comments to be constructive. Both Consules have sought to
incorporate differeing views to build towards concensus and to avoid
division as much as possible. Reviewing the voting results of every
session of the Senate this year, I think that we, the Senate, have
been very successful in working together. This has meant that some
issues were not addressed this year, but that only tells me that we
need to investigate the issues more deeply. Likewise it has meant
that we have not been able to fully address some issues. In passing
the measures proposed in this session, and reading some of the
comments made, I think it shows that there is still room for
improvement. But, to my mind, the most important accomplishment this
year has been how the members of the Senate have worked together on
common goals. For this I extend my thanks and my congratulations to
all here.

Annum novum bonum faustum felicem!

Christer Edling, Director

With Twenty-one of thirty-two current Board Members voting, a quorum
has been met.

ITEM I: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the Budget
2761.

With 18 approving, and three abstaining, the measure passes.

JJR Yes
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Abstineo. I was unable to access this document, so will not
vote on it.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Abstain
AFM Yes
- W. C. Gawne: Yes. It is not a budget I consider ideal, but it's one
we can accept to move forward. I do ask future consuls to separate
the Magna Mater Project from Nova Roma's finances. It should be able
to thrive on its own from here on.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve.
RJM Yes
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Abstain
CE: Yes.

ITEM II: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the Budget
2762a.

With fifteen approving, one opposing, and five abstaining, the
measure passes

JJR Yes For whatever objections that I or any other member of the
Board could raise about the details of the proposed Budget 2762a, I
think that it does provide for our diverse interests. Importantly,
too, has been the manner in which it has been developed.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –No. Nova Roma has already donated $1663.00
dollars from the general fund to the MMP. By adding another $843.51
we will have donated a total of $2506.51. This means Nova Roma, Inc.
will have donated more than all of our citizens combined. We should
not be doing this. We should withdraw the money($2506. 51) Nova Roma,
Inc had given To the MMP and return it to the general fund. We should
then write a check for the balance of the MMP fund and donate it
directly to the Italian government for use toward the MMP. Then we
should end all solicitation for this project and start on those that
advance Nova Roma, like a Temple in Rome fund and the land fund. If I
can vote for each individual item in the budget I vote as follows, if
I can not I have to, in good conscience, vote NO. [TPG had voted yes
on all other allocations, but voted `No' on the overall Budget
proposed.]
DB: YES
NB: Assent, with reservations. As others have noted, the MMP should
be disentangled from the rest of the budget, especially since it
seems that the temple cannot ever be rebuilt. I support the concept
of a reflection area and other related projects we have discussed in
the past, but the actual rebuilding seems extremely unlikely at
best.
ChP: ABSTAIN, for three main reasons. First the abstention is a wish
not casting an vote "antiquo", and to take thus in account the real
work done on this budget ; second, I regret that we are not proposed
to vote budget chapter by chapter, which will allow the senators to
avoid excessively opposed positions ; last, I cannot but disapprove
the fact that the reasonable aedilician proposals on Ludi prizes and
Equites "grants" have not been taken in consideration for wrong "good
reasons" and that, at the same time, our budget contains
an "emergency fund" and a "general fund" which have currently no
assignment ; in addition, I consider the Matching Fund tool not
useful, and, instead, a possible source of complexity of our accounts.
MS: Abstain
AFM Yes I think the money included in this budget for the MMP should
be the last of our own money we put into this project. We can find a
better use of our resources in the future.
W. C. Gawne: Yes. As above, especially with respect to the MMP.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve, with reservations. I still have grave doubts about so
much of our monies (any monies) going towards the Magna Mater Project
and should like to see this item revisited in the course of the new
year. Especially as I am listed as a donor on their website, but can
find no records at my end of having done so; I have had the same
PayPal account since mid-2001. The other line items in the budget, I
support.
RJM Yes. I would add that at future review, it may make sense to
consolidate the two expense items "outreach effort" and "sodalitas
egressus"
NK: Yes, although I hope we can revisit the allocation of funds to
the MMP at the earliest opportunity next year in an amended budget.
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Abstain.
MS: Yes
MA Abstain
CE: Abstain.

ITEM III: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves adoption of
the negotiated resolution on Nova Roma, Inc. acquiring Ownership of
the domain "NOVAROMA.ORG" from Wm. Bradford.

With all twenty-one votes cast in favor, the measure passes.

JJR Yes Our negotiated agreement has provided Nova Roma with a very
good deal for the domain, at a cost we can afford, while granting Mr.
Bradford what he sought in compensation. I am fully satisfied that
all parties concerned benefit by this arrangement.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES, I approve of the manner and terms of this dispute
settlement. It was the best possible outcome under the circumstances.
NB: Assent. This seems to be a necessary step.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Yes. This is really not the finest hour of our history, but this
was most practical thing to do and therefore I support it
AFM Yes. This is a good arrangement for all involved. My thanks to
the senior consul for his work in getting this resolved.
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Closure was needed on this mess and this solution works.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes
CE: Yes, with congratulations!

ITEM IV.a: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the
creation of the office of a CIO...

With all twenty-one votes cast in favor, the measure passes.

JJR Yes This is a much needed first step to address what has become a
serious problem for us now and in the future.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES, reminding that the CIO must have a limited
number of people (s-)he is asked to refer, and cannot, beyond the
first work of the IT Committee (see below), be placed under the
responsibility of a group, a fortiori of an assembly. The best
solution is placing the CIO under the vice-presidents/ consuls
responsibility.
MS: Yes. I hope this will mark as a beginning of an era of better
management of all IT matters in NR.
AFM YES, This will do for now but ideally, all our IT needs should be
handled by someone outside the organization with no vested interest
in Nova Roma.
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Absolutely needed; to grow, we must have a professional
infrastructure and the trained personnel to build/maintain it. Other
organizations like ours to which I belong have also discovered this
need and have CIOs.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes, I agree
CE: Yes, lets see if it will work. In the end it always comes down to
the person that we choose and how we treat them.

ITEM IV.b: Resolved: That the Board of Directors authorizes the co-
presidents (Consuls) to form a Senate IT Committee limited to the
Consuls, Praetors, the CIO, members of the Senate and other Nova Roma
Citizens with knowledge and experience in the IT field. This
committee shall work together with the CIO in addressing the needs of
the organization, and shall coordinate with other magistrates and
committees, such as the Senate Committee on Budget and Finance, in
support of the CIO's efforts.

With all twenty-one votes cast in favor, the measure passes.

JJR Yes And this Resolution is an additional step to assist the CIO
and the BoD on tailoring decisions on IT issues to fit our needs.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes.
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES, specifying the fact that the organizational
question (see above) needs to be solved, ideally before.
MS: Yes. Again a step towards the right direction
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Yes, yes, yes; I believe I proposed such during our
discussions, and would be willing to participate, if my bona fides
pass review by our potential CIO.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes
CE: Yes.

ITEM V: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves a one time
reimbursement of provincia Dacia of $372 USD to cover a portion of
the $801 USD in expenses incurred for hosting this year's VI
Conventus Dacia that was not covered by attendees or provincial funds.

With all twenty-one votes cast in favor, the measure passes.

JJR Yes This matter was first brought up last year. It was brought up
again last June, then sent to committee where no action was taken on
it. The total expenses for Conventus VI exceeded $4,400 USD.
Corporate business was discussed at the Conventus. It proved to be a
very productive meeting for the corporation, and it is only right
that the corporation pay a small portion towards the costs incurred
by our provincial hosts.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent. This is fully justified. This and the other conventús
are important parts of our mission, and we should support them.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES, for the item is in due conformity with the
position of the Conventus and Events Committee's proposal.
MS: Yes. Supporting our gatherings is an important thing.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Supporting such functions should be of primary
importance, much more than archaeology.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes, with my best congratulations as I knew it was a great event.
CE: Yes.

ITEM VI: Corp. Resolved: That the Board of Directors authorizes the
permanent transfer to a new PayPal Business account, opened on 2
April 2008, from the corporation' s current PayPal Premier account, as
Nova Roma, Inc.'s primary account effective 1 January 2009.

With twenty approving, and one abstention, the measure passes.

JJR:Yes, This transfer to the Business Account will cut costs.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Agree; I leave the financial details to those more knowledgeable
in these respects.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Yes.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Better all around for our purposes.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Abstain.
CE: Yes.

ITEM VII: Corp. Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the
Corporate Fiscal Year for external reporting purposes shall last from
1 January to 31 December, and that an internal State Fiscal Year for
internal reporting purposes shall be established as lasting from 1
November to 31 October.

With nineteen approving, one opposing, and one abstaining, the
measure passes.

JJR Yes, This resolution will assist in developing a schedule for our
budgeting process and assist the CFO in preparing required reports.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent, for similar reasons.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Abstain
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. I see the usefulness of this, as the elected
Magistrates take office across the space of 3 months: Nov - Jan, they
would all have the same financial information.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA No. I fear this could complicate things.
CE: Yes.

ITEM VIII: Corp. Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves that
the Instructions on Retained/Returned portions of revenues shall
include a statement that such requests may be made only once a year
following the end of the internal State Fiscal Year that concludes 31
October.

With eighteen approving, one opposing, and two abstaining, the
measure passes.

JJR Yes This is another simple adjustment, a clarification on policy,
that will save us a small amount on banking fees, but more
importantly keeps financial record keeping simpler and again assists
in developing our budgeting process to become more efficient.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Abstain
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. This is tidier than having an open ended process.
RJM Yes.
NK Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA No.
CE: Yes.

ITEM IX: Corp. Resolved: That the Board of Directors adopts the
Standard Payment Request Form proposed by the Senate Committee on
Budget and Finance. Such requests are to be submitted to one of the
curule magistrates for processing and not directly to a financial
officer. Payments may not be made by any financial officer without
prior authorization by one or more curule magistrates.

Re: NOVA ROMA PAYMENT REQUEST FORM

With eighteen approving, one opposing, and two abstaining, the
measure passes.

JJR Yes By adopting the proposed standardize form, requests for
payments will first pass to an authorizing official(s) as a control
method, and provide us with much needed internal record keeping.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent.
ChP: ANTIQUO / NO, with regrets. This good will intention needs to
be worked enough, for, in the fact that it limits (line `Authorized
By') the concerned authorizing powers to the "Consul, Senate, or B&F
Committee", it forgets first that others magistrates have a similar
legal power to commit the Republic funds, that the Senate is not to
allow a specific expense, but to define a budget that the magistrate
(s) are to manage, and last that the BF Senatorial Committee, as
every senatorial committee, has no legal power.
MS: Abstain
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Standardized forms make for fewer loopholes.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Abstain.
CE: Yes.

ITEM X: Corp. Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the
following policy on

THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF SIGNATORY OFFICERS

With nineteen approving, one opposing, and one abstaining, the
measure passes.

JJR Yes Circumstances this year, with a concern towards securing our
finances, led the co-presidents and CFO to develop certain measures.
Those measures evolved over the past several months. Of course, early
this year we had the Board appoint signatories for our bank accounts.
This resolution takes the next step in providing a policy on what the
signatories have already been doing for us.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent.
ChP: ANTIQUO / NO, with regrets. Despite a will that seems very
good, the proposal mixes what NR Inc. would need as a non profit
making corporation, and what the Republic needs, aiming either
the "Board" or the "Senate". In the Republic point of view, the
identity of three mentioned officers are especially not evoked, nor
their relations with the financial quaestor(s).
MS: Abstain.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Chains of accountability provide a basis of trust in
governance.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes
CE: Yes.

ITEM XI: Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the policy of
limited licensing of content developed for its NRwiki website under
the license developed for purposes of free documentation by the Free
Software Foundation, the text of which can be found at
http://www.gnu. org/copyleft/ fdl.html.

With twenty approving, one abstaining, the measure passes.

JJR Yes We need to adopt some policy on this issue as our website
increasing becomes a source of information. The particular policy we
propose adopting was developed by other, similar organizations that
share educational information. The policy will have any website using
information taken from ours linked back to the Nova Roma website.
Adopting this policy should benefit us in many ways, not least of
which could be to increase our commercial potential.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Here I cannot comment as I got a 404 error when attempting to
access this site. I abstain.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Yes. This is a goos step forward.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. This is good; I have some of my own material out and
about under the copyright ideas presented by the Creative Commons
organization.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes
CE: Yes.

ITEM XII: Resolved: That the Board of Directors authorizes Laszlo
Kovacs of Hungaria to use the material found at
http://www.novaroma .org/nr/HU: Praenomen, under the terms of
Wikipedia's license.

With twenty approving, one abstaining, the measure passes.

JJR Yes Information from our website is already being taken, without
permission, and used by individuals as they upload it to Wikipedia.
Mr. Laslo was nice enough to ask us. This could help us establish a
better relationship with Wikipedia, insisting that they abide by
their own licensing policy before using material produced by our
members.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: As has happened all too often of late, this page showed up blank
when I attempted to access it, and moreover did not respond to the
page-flipping which sometimes produces the text previously written in
invisible ink. Here again I must abstain. Note, too, that we
perhaps mean Hungary, or Pannonia, not Hungaria.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Yes
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. People who ask permission ought be lauded and gain our
cooperation; like this.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MS: Yes
MB: Yes.
MA Yes
CE: Yes.

ITEM XIII: Resolved: That the Board of Directors authorizes the
Consuls to enter Nova Roma, Inc. into the affiliate program with
Art.com.

With seventeen approving, two opposing, and two abstaining, the
measure passes.

JJR Yes The relationship with Art.com will be similar to what we
have now with Amazon.com. It may afford us little, but we need extra
sources of income. Like Amazon, too, we shall have to better promote
our affiliate status with Art.com in order to maximize it revenue
potential for us.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes Joining the affiliate program with Art.com
cost us nothing. It has potential for a very good return to us from
those who buy from Art.com from our site. It has many items that are
Roman in nature and will not only help us raise money but will also
enhance the look of our Website.

Search results: Roman - 3,785 items

http://www.art. com/asp/search_ doasp/_/posters. htm?
ui=1E879234EC164002 83FBB5CC2A0974AB

Search results: Rome - 3,250 items
Ancient Greek - 376 items
Search results: Carthage - 76 items

DB: YES
NB: While I have not seen enough information on this to fully
satisfy me, I will assent, with qualifications. I have seen the
catalog of this organization, and it does seem at least somewhat
useful for our purposes.
ChP: ANTIQUO / NO. Our Senate must stop acting in fields he has not
or not fully the constitutional right to. Rather than adding new,
even interesting, commercial links to our `portfolio', we should
first reorganize our Equites/traders status, which will need a law in
Com. Cent., and let the aedilies curules, whose normal competency it
is, carry possible future proposals, in due respect of the interests
of the cives that our laws decide to protect.
MS: No. We should be very selective with this sort of cooperation in
order not to loose our creditability as information provider.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Abstain. I'm still trying to digest all the information about
the affiliation process, but am not uneasy enough to cast an outright
No vote.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Abstain
CE: Yes.

ITEM XIV Resolved: That the Board of Directors approves the Nova Roma
privacy policy provided at
http://www.novaroma .org/nr/NovaRoma :Privacy_ policy

With all twenty-one votes cast in favor, the measure passes.

JJR Yes. Here again is an important issue that we should have
addressed in the past. I thank those who helped to develop this
policy for us.
Adrian Zavoianu: Yes.
DLPA Yes
LGE: Yes.
DOK: Yes.
Timothy P. Gallagher –Yes
DB: YES
NB: Assent. I may not understand all of the technical jargon, but
this does seem reasonable.
ChP: UTI ROGAS / YES
MS: Yes.
AFM Yes
W. C. Gawne: Yes.
JKS Yes
SPR: Approve. Having worked privacy issues as a professional
communications security
specialist at one time in my life, these are policies near and dear
to my heart.
RJM Yes.
NK: Yes
Michael Kelly: Yes.
MB: Yes.
MS: Yes
MA Yes
CE: Yes.
