C. Petronius Dexter Pontifex Maximus omnibus Quiritibus salutem dicit plurimam,

Today morning, capite velato,
I invoked Iuno Covella by saying the traditional formula:

"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"
"Die Septimi te kalo Iuno Covella"

I offered incense and saying prayers I asked the Goddess to be favorable toward
us, the Quirites of Nova Roma.

The festivals to be celebrated in the month of March shall be:

Salvete omnes,
it is indeed a sad day when, in a group that's full of misogynistic people,
a woman can be reprimanded for telling the truth, that it, that the group is
full of misogynistic people.

Well, I guess it was only to be expected. And please don't waste bandwidth
trying to prove that I lie. I was there, I've seen all of it, and I know
that women are subjected to more frequent and more vicious attacks than men.

Also I have lost interest in Nova Roma enough that I will delete all replies
to this thread without reading them.
If the Powers That be decide to reprimand me too, or expel me, they will
have to write a private message.

Optime valete,
Livia

Avete omnes!

Obviously she has not actually lost interest because if that were the truth she would not have taken time to reply to a thread in a mailing list that did not interest her --- and probably she would have unsubscribed sometime ago. All of which tends to bring into question the credibility of the message. However, that did sound a bit like 'unsubscribe me, please.' Perhaps a moderator could assist her?

Well ... These pleas have been noted. Canine you make some good points as
well...

At this time Livia cannot be unsubscribed by a Moderator, she has done
nothing wrong to warrant such removal at this time..

However...

If she were to make a personal request to be removed, then yes a Moderator
could do so. Otherwise if Livia is that unhappy and has truly lost
interest in Nova Roma and the activities of the Main List, she can manually
unsubscribe herself via yahoogroups. Nothing is stopping her from doing so
except Livia herself.

Vale Optime,

Salvete omnes,

"it is indeed a sad day when, in a group that's full of misogynistic people,a woman can be reprimanded for telling the truth, that it, that the group is full of misogynistic people."

I find your comments puzzling in that it is the authorship of the email in question that is under discussion and not the contents. By defending the validity of the contents you either implicitly assign authorship to Scholastica, which she has been studiously trying to avoid, or accuse me of fabricating, perhaps for misogynist reasons, an email whose contents you both defend and applaud. I am struggling to find a logical reason for you deriving either construct. The first is harmful to the person you wish to defend and the second serves no logical purpose being on the face of it farcical.

This is really simple and has gone on for too long. My testimony was that I had sent the email in question, unaltered, to Sulla. The motive and morality of such action on my part is debatable but not of concern anymore. Scholastica, upon direct questioning from me, neither confirmed nor denied that the email had been altered, a perhaps political answer that allowed her to maintain some level of ambiguity without directly accusing me of altering it.

I was content to let matters rest there until reading our esteemed Senators comments stating that she stated the email was altered. As this stands in direct conflict with my written testimony it is, in effect, calling me a liar.

Despite our differences, and what I see as an ability to parse her answers, I think Scholastica is a person with a basic sense of honesty, decency, and moral integrity. She holds a high position in Nova Roma and brings a wealth of knowledge of Latin and Roman history to the organization. I, on the other hand, as she has pointed out, am not yet able to serve as a scribe.

Only the two of us know, for a fact, if I altered the email although she can claim not to be sure as well. She, and I, know the truth.

So I will leave it with her and ask her to exercise her role as Censor in upholding the morals of Nova Roma. If she claims I altered the email I will not debate the issue but resign my citizenship and leave Nova Roma. I will not be available to testify on this matter in the future if anyone tries to action it after her term of office ends.

If, instead, she either takes ownership of the email as unaltered or reverts to her earlier position of being unable to confirm that the email was unaltered, thus not accusing me directly, then I will let the matter drop as I had intended.

I will leave this issue to Scholastica's moral integrity to decide. If she is convinced I altered the email, and states so publicly, then I will go as I would prefer not to continue the matter further.

C. Claudius Axenrothus

Salve et Salvete Omnes;

Today is Big Brew Day here in the USA. The American Homebrew
Association sponsors this celebration where brew clubs and individual
members gather.

The idea is to try each year to have the largest group ever brewing
the same beer, which is India Pale Ale this year.

I will be brewing a batch of mead to spread the wealth of knowledge,
and to try and have more local competition against me in this style.

Below my signature is the text of the 1-Gallon Meadmaker class sheet I
composed. Spreading the wealt here, too. =)

Vale et Valete - Venator, Dominus pro Sodalitas Coquorum et Cerevisiae Coctorum

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 1-Gallon Meadmaker by Steven and Anita

Mead is actually remarkably easy to make, but is more time consuming
than ale, beer or wine.

For this process, you need (2) 1-gallon glass jugs marked at 3 qt, 3
1/2 qt and 3 3/4 qt levels. a drilled stopper with airlock, 4' x 3/8"
ID food grade vinyl tubing, thermometer, 1 qt glass jar with a clean
white cloth to cover it, 1 qt (3#) honey, 1 qt hot water (about 150F)
and about 2 qt cold water (40F), 1 pkt all-purpose dried wine yeast, 1
each B-1, B-6 and CaMgZn tablets - crushed, small spray bottle of
plain 80 proof vodka (sanitizer and airlock filler), 8 - .5L pop
bottles with caps (cleaned and sanitized) for packing the finished
mead

Make sure all equipment and work surfaces have been cleaned, rinsed
and sanitized. Diluted, unscented household bleach is fine for this,
but rinse well…yeast and chlorine ARE not a happy couple. One can
lightly mist all surfaces with the vodka, this is a no-rinse
sanitizer. For cleaning use unscented dishwasher powder.

An hour ahead of brewing time, place the jar of honey in a pan of 125F
water to liquefy. Also, dissolve the vitamin and mineral tablet
powders in 1 c hot water in the glass jar, mix in 1 c cold water and
then sprinkle in the yeast, cover with the cloth and set aside to
rehydrate.

To brew our mead; pour the honey into a 1-gal jug. Pour in all but 1 c
of the remaining hot water and swirl gently to dissolve the honey. Use
the other cup of hot water to rinse out the honey jar and pour this in
the jug. Add in the cold water up to the 3 1/2 qt line, swirl gently
to mix and if the temp is now about 70F, pour in the yeast liquid and
enough water to just over the 3 3/4 qt line. Airlock it and let it go
until the bubbling stops (or the action is over 5 minutes between
bubbles). Siphon off the debris into the second glass jug, airlock and
let settle for 4 weeks. Siphon back into the 1st jug, off any debris.
If no activity is detected after 2 more weeks (including throwing of
more sediment), the mead is done.

Siphon it into your pop bottles, evenly and store in a cool, dark
place another month.

It will taste "young" then, but be drinkable; much better, however, if
you wait six months.

I like to let the mead work at ale temperatures, 65 - 70 degrees
Fahrenheit, depending upon the yeast. However, some of the wine
yeasts like a slightly cooler temp by 5 - 10 degrees. I've even used
a wine yeast strain called Tokay, which will ferment cleanly up to
140F; that's when we lived in Florida.

To make Melomel, just replace 3/4 pint of the cold water with a
chilled juice concentrate of choice, or use 1 qt regular juice in
place of 1-qt chilled water.

Salve

Complex process. I don't drink alcohol so I don't do beer or mead but I do brew my own molasses cream soda. I tried ginger ale but I didn't like how it came out. The cream soda only takes about three days since no alcohol forms, the process is easier, but it still fizzes and tastes refreshing when cold. Not historical though as I don't think soda was a Roman era drink. Recipe is simple if anyone wants it.

Vale

C. Claudius

Avete Omnes,

Just dropping an occasional reminder regarding the tax payments. The
Deadline for the payment is the end of May (May 31st).

If anyone has any questions please let me know.

I have already been updating the Album Civium reflecting new payments, if
you are not seeing it listed please let me know immediately.

Respectfully,

Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix

I occasionally brew root beer (using commercial flavoring), which is
non-alcoholic.

The effort should always be to make what you, and those with whom you
share, like, be it drink or food.

I'll find the recipe for "Jungle brewing" a ginger beer given to me by
one of my mentors about 25 years ago for you.

Ludi Ceriales 2012/ 2765 Final Race

Iulia omnibus salutem

Pompa
Pontifex Maximus C. Petronius Dexter honored Mater Ceres with an
exceptionally reverent ceremony and sacrifice, do ut des, this morning as
the sky lightened; a few golden rays briefly peaked through the gray skies
as twilight turned to day. Led by the Magistrates and Pontifices in their
finest togatae, the Pompa Circenses commenced from the Capitolium, which was
bedecked in floral garlands and arrangements as was the entire route. Made
even more festive by the gaily dressed spectators, many in the colors of
their factions tossing delicate blooms of the same colors towards the
procession! Sacerdotes and Pontifices, including oracle et diviner Pontifex
L. Julia Aquila, blessed the spectators with sheaths of golden wheat as they
wove their way around the city on this most auspicious day. They were
followed by a bigae in which rode Aedilis Plebi Publius Ann�us Constantinus
Placidus, wearing the traditional supreme purple robe of a triumphator! The
Consuls, Censors, Praetrix , and Aedilis Curilis rode in bigae driven by
past circenses victors! Equites and Tribunes rode fine young steeds
alongside them. The procession wove its colorful, melodious way from the
Capitolium, along the crowded Clivus Capitolinus to the Roman Forum.
By this time the procession had grown behind the Aedilis: the finest Roman
youth on the finest young steeds led by young nobiles M. Iulius Aquila and
Ti. Iulius Sabinus Crassus, dressed in the colors of their favorite team.
They were followed by more youth on foot, budding soldiers they, but the
crowds' roars and bellows became deafening when the adorned quadrigae and
garlanded agitatores came into view. Soldiers, fine in their gleaming clean
paluditi, took a defensive posture against any perceived or real harmful
actions towards the quadrigae or the agitatores � however as before, lovely
young lady maidens garbed in sensuous revealing tunicae of various
translucent colors, climbed into the chariots flanking beaming appreciative
drivers and running their delicate fingers through the agitatores' tresses.
Fanatici and gaily clad dancers of all ages from toddlers to elders, some
dressed as winged nymphs, danced with abandon! Others in purple tunicae
wielding swords and short spears performed a dance of war pageant while
stomping their feet in time to their frenetic drums! Other adult dancers
donned helmets of bronze and wore crests of the various houses of old Rome,
but all twirled and gyrated to the tempo determined by percussion
instruments! N. Bocco Paganini of Genua introduced a gourd shaped instrument
with strings made of sacrificed lamb sinew and on it he wove mellifluous
technical fireworks from his Caprice no.24 using a bow strung with the hair
of red headed virgins! Accompaniments' of auloi, tibiae , and lyre elevated
the level of the ecstatic and mirthful expectations of the games but also
added to the grace of the dancers. Mocking the dancers and singers, a chorus
dressed as satyrs and sileni in whoolly tunics, goatskin loincloths,
colorful hair spiked and decorated with colorful floral garlands, followed
with antics that brought laughter to the crowds! They sang while kicking up
their hooves `fire on the Palatine! Run boys, run! Pluto's in the House of
the Rising Sun!' Citizens were dancing, dancing in the street! Citizens sang
in the street! Wine appeared to be ever flowing into the accepting mouths of
Romans! Nourishment from the lifeblood of Bacchus!
Sprays of multitudes of red, blue and white flowers were tossed at the
crowds from actors and mimes; from there the throng continued along the Via
Sacra followed by more solemn Romans carrying golden bowls and exotics
perfumes signaling the procession of the Gods. The statues of the Gods in
lavishly silk garments were also appointed with gold and other precious
metals, fine pearls, red coral and rare jewels. They were carried upon
highly adorned wheeled litters with lightly veiled high enclosures that not
only served as vehicles but as moving saculla. The procession continued
travelling along the Vicus Tuscus before arriving at the Circus Maximus
through the Porta Triumphalis. The Pompa approached its d�nouement when the
chosen boys (those with both parents living) pulled the tensae transporting
the statues and their exuviae to their place in the circus where they were
put on display in their own special pulvinar. As if to put a final touch to
the spectacle, birds of the auspicious variety, infinite in numbers and
colors, swooped down before the Pulvinar of Gods, lingered seemingly with
heads bowed before the effigies (although they may have been eating) than
swooped up straight towards the heavens in a vision of many colors, as if
they were gentle fireworks from the east!

Felicita: "Good Morning Roma! Welcome to the Ludi Ceriales 2765 FINALS! What
a glorious Pompa to begin this final race! The weather is 72 degrees under
cloudy skies, it will be a warm one today so I hope we have all left our
cloaks at home! I am Poppaea Solin Sergia Felicita sharing the skybox with
the handsome agitator, breeder of the finest steeds and chariot designer,
Vitus Herminius Aquilinus and old friend and local celebrity, Balbus Gallus
Hilarius, owner of the premier beauty and couture salon, the Inner Peacock!

Hilarius: "Yes good morning to all! Please check your programs for the
festival activities after the Race! Of which there will be many! I must make
mention of the fabulous feast that has been laid out before us by those
purveyors of gustatory delights "Apicus Aliments on the Esquiline" here in
the skybox. A larger version has also been provided in the magistrates
pulvinar and spectators will find various concession sites with many of the
less perishible delicacies for discount prices today only! *A beautiful
young boy and girl bring a platter to Hilarius* Ahhhh! Delightful!
Fantabulous! We have stuffed gold skinned dates from Thebes, sow udders, sow
vulvas, rare sow wombs, boars heads, roasted loin of boar, roasted loin of
row deer, roasted force-fed fowl, *takes a breath and a swig of Chian wine,
and as his eyes rove over the fern and verbena dressed banquet he
continues*boiled teals, roasted duck, roasted hare, roasted, fish quiche,
soft cheeses, hard cheeses, raw oysters, sea urchins, thrushes baked under a
thatch of asparagus and clams! And four kinds of wine! In addition to the
coveted Falnerian, there is Chian, Lesbian and Marmartine! Oh la la! *he
stands and turns in his voluminous deep red silk toga, today wearing the
color of his faction, announces gaily*
WELCOME TO THE LUDI CERIALES FINAL RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

*loud competing cheers between the Albatae, Russatae and Venetae subsume all
other sounds in the circenses*

Aquilinus: "What a fine beginning to a day of such promise! The Troika has
begun making its procession, show-casing the prowess of both men and
beasts!"

Hilarius: "People, oh people, fird of all, please make your final selections
and second of all, get thine posteriors back to your seats or to the cavae!"

Felicita: *casts a sideway look at Hilarius, chuckles, her mellifluous voice
sounding over the loudspeakers* "This troika bears excellent promise to the
races! The factio's cheers are deafening, I myself cannot help but be moved
to cheer along for all the quadrigae! The scent of floral wreaths waft even
up here in the broadcast booth where even the rose petals gently fall upon
our fair tresses! *they all look up to see young men and boys of the
different faction who have climbed high upon the circus and are providing
the rain of flowers* I would like to thank the Praesina, who are not
represented today in the races, for the lovely greenery they so generously
lavished around the circus today!"

Hilarius: "It appears as if the dancers, the fanatici and acrobatics on
horseback are vying for attention � away from the quadrigae! Even a parody
chariot the colors of all the factions driven by a fire-eater and pulled by
four fire-eaters dressed as steeds but collectively look more like a dragon!
Oooops, they are being ushered away by the foot-soldiers as the race is
about to start! The Albatae are leading a wave, and not to be outdone,
Veneta and Russata are responding in kind! Oh still my beating heart! All
those youths leaping and dancing, wearing only subligaculum the colors of
factiones and floral garlands! "

*throngs of spectators cheers and throw garlands the color of their favorite
factions into the air*

Aquilinus: "The crowd is especially lively today, and it appears the calvary
are on hand once again � just in case! I, myself, have been conserving my
energy for tonight's soirees, and dancing and singing with a particular
Sacerdos Veneris�" *smiles and waves ot that Sacerdos who returns the
gesture in kind, with an affirmative nod* Well citizens and peregrine it
seems that the troika has returned to the ostia and are taking their places
in the carceres

*pauses waiting for the cacophany to die down to a dull roar than with a
laugh his rich voice continues shouting louder after each quadrigae is
announced*:

In lane I, post postio, Tonitrus, owned by P. Porcius Licinius and driven by
Rutilius for Veneta

Lane II, Erebus, owned by C. Arminius Reccanellus and driven by Poncianus
Sergius Caesar for Russata

Lane III, Fulmen Punicum, owned by Consul C. Tullius Valerianus Germanicus
and driven by C. Hanno P�nulus for Veneta

Lane IV, Decimator, and owned by M. Iulius Aquila and driven by Serapis
Tutor for Albata."

*an amplified and renewed wave of excited cheering ensues for the quadrigae
and agitatores while they make a last minute check of the tack, chariots and
horse. Aquilinus and Hilarius stand, leaning on the edge of the skybox
watching the teleprompter and the people! the people in all their glory!
Felicita, stands near the edge of the skybox apart from the others but is
pleasantly surprised when her husband, L. Sergius Coxo, slips behind her,
taking her in his arms and gifting her with a sweet kiss on heated breath
redolent of cherries; his slowly pressed lips gently rest upon her skin a
flame of desire. Hilarius stares enchanted, fanning himself with his red
scarf.*

Felicita, blushing, straightens but still allowing him to keep his arms
around her, comments into her headset: "Once again the stands are enveloped
in a sea of Red, White and Blue flags and Pom Poms, yes those Pom Poms are
back again!!!! A most handsome crowd! The magistrates' wives look as if they
are ready for the runway! Oh, look! The catapults again! Shooting tiny flags
of red, white and blue!!!!!"

Aquilinus, whose attention has been on the quadrigae, takes a quick glance
towards the lover's, his lips curl into a smile and almost makes a remark
when Aedilis Placidus takes his place at the Pulvinar, shouting over the
cheering of the crowds:

"Aedilis Placidus is preparing to start this Final Race!

The quadrigae are in position in the carceres behind the gates!

The trumpets sound!

From the Magistrates box, Aedilis Placidus drops the mappa and they are
off!!!!"

Aquilinus: "Erebus and Decimator take off like blazing fury in front of the
other, Erebus claiming near the spina! Fulmen Punicum is behind them but his
position prevents the Tonitrus from being able to pass! The Fulmen Punicum
is lashing Tonitrus as they go around the meta! Hanno is already trying to
eliminate the competition! Tonitrus handles the turn well! Erebus and
Decimator thunder towards the second lap! Fulmen Punicum is now focused on
the other quadrigae, and Tonitrus, biding his time, trailing at a steady
pace!

The dolphin turns in the second lap, it's Erebus 1st, Decimator 2nd ,Fulmen
Punicum 3rd and Tonitrus 4th! There is a fast run down the straightway with
all quadrigae maintaining their place! Whoaaaa!!!!!!!!!!! Tonitrus has come
up wide around the metae and charges into the lead! He has centered himself
in the track strategically! Decimator thunders foreward and positions
himself near the spina but not passing the Tonitrus! It is Tonitrus in the
Lead position, with Decimator on the inside in second, almost flanked by
Fulmen Punicum in 3rd with Erebus on the inside in 4th as they head down the
stretch. Hanno lashes Decimator! He's trying to smash him into the spina!
Hanno gets too close! Serapis Tutor slugs him with a gloved fist! Hanno
falls into the chariot holding onto the rim, his horses control themselves!"


*the mob is cheering and jeering, there is fighting in the stands and in the
cavae, Serapis Tutor is laughing, his long dark hair unleashed of it bonds
and flowing in the wind*

"Erebus moves ahead of the Fulmen Punicum! The Fulmen Punicum has regained
control of his quadrigae ! Erebus prevents from passing him as they turn the
curve into the 3rd lap!

It's Decimator in first but Tonitrus is almost neck in neck in 2nd , Erebus
is two lengths behind in 3rd and the Fulmen Punicum coming up the rear! And
he is angry! Erebus passes the Tonitrus! Charging ahead is Fulmen Punicum
lashing at Tonitrus! Tonitrus lashes back and urges his horses forward!
WHOAAAA! The Fulmen Punicum has swung something into the side of the Erebus!
Paint and wood are flying! It looks like metal as well! A piece of debris
struck the Fulmen Punicum! Both quadrigae are swinging into each other
uncontrollably! The Tonitrus is dashing with urgency around the two battling
quadrigae! Tonitrus has passed the Decimator! Decimator gains the lead once
again and is near the spina! It looks like Hanno and Poncianus have wounds
from the debris! Their bodies coated with blood and sand! The Fulmen
Punicum, quadrigae fully recovered, has lashed his way past a wounded
Erebus! How can Poncianus see? Blood must be obscuring his vision?! Folks -
blood is raining on the tracks! Decimator and the Fulmen Punicum are once
again exchanging lashes! Fulmen Punicum moves into first place! His horses
sport a rich lather which, mingled with Hanno's blood asperses the other
quadrigae!"

*shouts, fighting breaks out in the stands, the roar is deafening, the
soldiers rush into the stands and the cavae*

"The dolphin turns into the 4th and final lap! 1st Fulmen Punicum, closely
followed by Decimator in 2nd, Tonitrus in 3rd and a wounded Poncianus in
Erebus last. Decimator makes his move along the spina! Fulmen Punicum Is not
having it! But neither is the young soldier Serapis! Serapis sends a flurry
of lashes against Hanno! Hanno is returning them with enraged shouts!
Serapis lobs a loaf of bread at Hanno and moves the Decimator into the
Fulmen Punicum! The arc, side panel of the Fulmen Punicum's felly, has
cracked inward and is forced against Hanno's legs by wind pressure! It is
waffling back and forth! The antyx (rim) has flown off! Tonitrus is fending
off huge pieces of the Fulmen Punicum! Erebus has just lashed passed
Tonitrus! He appears focused! The entire quadrigae are enveloped in a fog of
red sand! He passes the Fulmen Punicum and the Decimator as they regain
control of their quadrigae! Decimator surges forward and has regained
position near the spina as they pass the meta for the final time. The
Decimator and Erebus charge down the track neck in neck to the finish line!
The Fulmen Punicum and Tonitrus are not far behind! It looks like a dead
heat for the Erebus and Decimator as they cross the finish line!"

*spectators rush out of the stands! the calvary form a barrier! shouts and
screams are so loud one can't hear themselves think! sight is obliterated by
a blizzard of red and white!*

"People! Citizens! The Race officials will have their decision any second
now! Train your eyes to the monitor for replays from different angles!

I have the official decision!
In 4th place, Tonitrus, owned by P. Porcius Licinius and driven by Rutilius
for Veneta
In 3rd place, Fulmen Punicum, owned by Consul C. Tullius Valerianus
Germanicus and driven by C. Hanno P�nulus for Veneta
In 2nd place by a hair, by a fraction, Decimator, and owned by M. Iulius
Aquila and driven by Serapis Tutor for Albata

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I GIVE YOU EREBUS, OWNED BY C. ARMINUS RECCANELLUS
DRIVEN BY PONCIANUS SERGIUS CAESAR FOR RUSSATA WINNER OF THE 2765 LUDI
CERIALES CIRCENSES!!!!!!!!!!!

What a Race! Be careful leaving the Circus, get out safe because there are
many parties and feasts all over town this night!

This is Aquilinus, and on behalf of Felicita and Hilarius I bid you all Good
Night!"

Aquilinus turns to Hilarius: "Hilari where are Felicita and Coxus?"

Hilarius, giving him a `you really have to ask look': "The excitement was
too much for them, they left in a rush but I understand their litter was
a-rockin' even before it pulled away! Sistuh girl better watch out or she be
birthin' more babies!"

Aquilinus, offering a hearty laugh ad twinkle in his eyes: "Would you join
me at the stables, quite a few fights have started, I might be needed."

Hilarius: "Oh please, tell it to the hand! Go! Go off and get into trouble!
I'll be there directly,"

*claps his hands to his servants who gather the huge amount of leftover
buffet in huge "doggy bags"*

Hilarius: "I will be there shortly to collect the sweat from the agitatores,
to make perfume of course."

Aquilinus, rolls eyes: "Of course, well I am gone, will see you at the
Russatae victory parties!"

Hilarius, shouts after Aquilinus as he bounds down the stairs of the skybox:
"of course you will, who do think they contracted as planner for all those
parties!"

Hilarius: "That's all folks!"

Is it possible Claudius, that you could be in pending status? (i.e. you
tried posting something perhaps) I know this particular moderator has a
penchant for placing members on a very long pending status.

Or did you actually receive a denial letter?

" Or did you actually receive a denial letter?"

Denial letter - although to paraphrase Groucho Marx I question the sanity of any club that would have me as a member.

I was more thinking it was interesting that some groups here require approval and some do not.

I assumed it wasn't personal - unless someone had ever read some of my poetry. I can still read the messages which is good enough for me.

Hello,

Your request to join the ForTheMuses group was not approved.
The moderator of each Yahoo! group chooses whether to restrict
membership in the group. Moderators who choose to restrict
membership also choose whom to admit.

Please note that this decision is final and that Yahoo! Groups
does not control group membership.

You may find other groups to join by searching or browsing the
Groups directory:
http://groups.yahoo.com

If you would like to create your own group, please visit:

Thank you for choosing Yahoo! Groups.

Unless you were spamming the list or had posted inappropriate messages, I
can see a reason for a possible denial membership.

If you had done nothing wrong then it is a bit concerning, especially where
we are in need to encourage people to join our Sodales and be active
members within them. This is concerning, at least it is to me.

"Unless you were spamming the list or had posted inappropriate messages, I can see a reason for a possible denial membership."

I know some people consider what I write to be natural spam but I assume it was just an oversight or I didn't fill something out correctly.

Is the reason for approving membership in a group to try to keep spam out? If so that would make sense to me

Salve Claudius,

There have been problems with spammers in the past, so what I would do in your case is re-apply for membership and include your Roman name.

Then there should be no impediment as to officially joining the list.

It is simply a private website which is part of his signature - as many of us have, no biggie, nothing to get confused about. I think it looks like Niel Patrick Harris.

However citizen Pontius has much to offer NR!

I have updated the Citizen page at the Provincia America Austrorientalis website, please take a look at it and let me know if the information is correct. The links to each album civium page, but for some reason only a few would "link" to the actual citizens' names. I have no idea why but will be looking into it:

Avete omnes,

Hi all. Yes, that website is part of my email signature. I have many
blogs etc., and that one page is a hub for everything. I work in media
and it's a necessary evil in my case.

Nevertheless, my passion has always been classics, sacrificed all to
often for the sake of work. So it goes.

Nice to meet you all. I'm looking forward to getting involved. Forgive
me if I'm a little slow to start. I'm not used to email-lists/mailing
groups but rather fora with topics and posts and all. Once I get my
bearings I'll join in some conversations and get to know all of you
better.

In the meantime feel free to contact me. I'm here to interact with
like-minded people!

A. Liburnius Hadrianus tribunus plebis Quiritibus salutem

I am the on-duty tribune for the month starting on May 10th and ending on June 10th. V. Aemilia Regilla will act as my back-up for the same month.  
Even though I am officially on duty, any citizen in need of tribunician support should feel free to approach any tribune at their choice.

Valete optime

Salvete Is this the correct translation from English to Latin for " Not all conspiracies
are theories"

Non totus insidiae es ratio Thanks Valete Paulinus

Ave.

...conspiracies are... = 3rd plural. should be "sunt" i think. But my
latin is quite rusty.

Vale

Ave!

Any combination that suits you is fine with me. I'll follow the Roman
norm and keep the praenomen for family and personal conversation.
Pontius Silo, Pontius, or Silo all work in public. :)

Ave Tullia Scholastica:

Thank you for the welcome!

Yes. I knew I could only offer some paltry advice, so I stopped at my limits. ;)

I'd be interested in your class and look forward to your updates. Time
to hone these skills of mine!

Vale!

"Not all conspiracies are theories" / "non totus insidiae es ratio"

The Latin of this is about to get dissected, much as responses to the
final exam I am now correcting. More correct Latin is "non omnes
conjurationes sunt theoriae." (I have chosen the late Latin and
Greek-derived 'theoria' over 'ratio,' which more often means 'reason,' or
'account' [numerical or other]). Totus means 'whole, entire,' whereas
'omnis' (nominative and accusative plural 'omnes') means 'all, every.'
Insidiae is a word existing only in the plural, and literally means 'trap,
snare, ambush, trickery.' It is not quite what we want here when we have a
perfectly fine classical Latin word 'conjuratio,' which is what was used for
the machinations of Catiline and his buddies. However, if we used 'totus'
with 'insidiae,' the correct grammar would be 'totae insidiae,' for
'insidiae' is feminine plural, whereas 'totus' is masculine singular. The
meaning, though, would be different, something like 'the entire ambush /
plot.' 'Es' is second person singular of the verb 'esse,' 'to be,' and
means 'thou art / you (s.) are.' Now in Spanish it seems that 'es' is third
singular as well as second singular, but if one uses 'insidiae,' one must
use a plural verb since this is a plural noun, and that would be 'sunt,'
but with 'conjuratio,' a feminine singular abstract noun of the third
declension, we require the singular, 'est.' As above, 'ratio' generally
means 'account, reason,' though it is used for 'theory' in classical Latin.
Much more transparent is the late Latin 'theoria.'

You do know, Pauline, that you could ask me privately, don't you, as you
have done in the past? However, this is a fine occasion for an explanation
of Latin, which should bore some parties here sufficiently that they might
sleep better tonight. ;-)

Vale, et valete.

Salve Ponti!

Hmmm ...I have a theory that NJ is a secret military experiment, and the mosquitoes that inhabit south Jersey are ..fighter drones in miniature ...and *extremely* efficient! Wonder if they've sent any down to Miami, yet? LOL!

I recently came across a similar problem with "Vis, quantum facias mali, videre?" (Martial)
Now the popular translation for this phrase is "Do you never pause to consider the havoc/evil you cause?" Of course this is an approximation and is not an exact translation because it simply cannot be done.

But I did not realize how tough this little sentence is, until I broke it down because I wanted to make it a plural 'you'- and it seems that 'vis' is understood as 'quam-vis' -and so confused but having reviewed the verb video, and after consulting OLD, 501 latin Verbs and LatinlexiconDOTcom - which is up and running once again - I conceded and asked someone. So I used 'Ipsi' instead off 'Vis' which I do not think was quite right but i did not have the usual coupla few hours to obsess over one Latin phrase;)

So seeing this thread i put this into a translator:
'You as much as face of the evil, to see?' Huh? To demonstrate the evil of translators - facias is from the verb 'facio' meaning make or do. But 'facies' means face and was not in the sentence.

I, too, would like to see, or learn from, the translation of the phrase Pauline inquired about.

Valete optime,

Julia

C. Petronius Faelano Blair salutem,

>Nope. Losing. We're doing the Siege of Alesia and I drew Gauls.

French scholars does not agree on where exactly is the site of Alesia, some think it is in Burgundy, some in Jura and there is a fierce debate between them since Napoleon the Third... in France the Siege of Alesia is not yet finished. ;o)

May you be polite enough to sign your posts with your Roman name, please?

Vale.

Sta. Cornelia Aeternia Omnibus in foro S.P.D.

Since the previous Event this was such a huge success. It was urged that
we make a steadfast attempt to do Improv Poetry at least one weekend per
month on the Sodalitas Musarum. Thought it was a good idea to condense
down to one weekend only, so that bandwidth flow is not as heavy as the
last time.

So with that in mind, I will again be taking up hosting duties to present
Improv Poetry for the following dates May 18th-May 20th, all are encouraged
to participate. Guidelines will be posted on the Musarum list.. Don't
think you have the skills of a Poeta (Poet) it's okay, if you like to read
it again you are welcome to join us. If you want to join in but you are a
s"hy violet" about your work, message me privately and I'll even go over
personally your work, or feel free to ask my fellow poets who reside on
Poets row. I'm pretty sure they won't mind they won't mind lending a quill
or should I say "hand".

Any general questions regarding the Improv Poetry please feel free to
e-mail me at lorkhanysdrow@...

Not a member of the Sodalitas Musarum join here at this link
www.yahoogroups.com/group/ForTheMuses

Hopefully will see some of you there and remember to let your Muses live.

Valete bene,
Aeternia

FYI The Classical Timeline project looks interesting (and needs help!):

Ave Petronie!

Forgive me for not signing my name. Apologies! Still getting used to
this system. And my email signature seems to just confuse things
further. I may create a new email just for Nova Roma to avoid such
things.

In the meantime, yes, I had read that as well! But I recall seeing
some aerial footage of the place that they think may have been Alesia
and it looked quite appealing. In any case I wonder if they can find
any tools or weapons there to determine if it was indeed the spot.

Vale!

Salvete, Quirites!


I apologize for letting you know about this so late, but it was not sure if I would be able to offer free accommodation this year. Anyway, the 6th Edition of the Nova Roma Floralia Carnival in Budapest is coming this Saturday.

I would like to invite you to the huge and fantastic Nova Roman event, the Aquincum Floralia Carnival in Pannonia Provincia, Hungary.

Some pictures of past NR Floralia of Aquincum:

I can offer accommodation for 3 Nova Roman citizens for free, so hurry up if you wish to come.

PLACE: Budapest, Hungary - Aquincum Museum
TIME: 19-20 May, with arrival to Budapest on 18th May (from morning - to night)
