Thank you
I just thought you might have been speaking about the
POW snatch and grab OP. into Vietnam, that failed
because of the News.
A good friend of mine was almost killed trying to
retrieve them.
You have enlightened me to this Operation.

Thank you for the help in this.
I heard of a woman Egyptian archaeology who believes
that the Great Pyramids was built out of a formed
concrete.She said that it was lost to the world.Could
you maybe ask your friend if he have heard of anything
like that? I'm trying to find out info on this.

You are to right, and here I was looking to get my
hands on a few bits of land on that Big O' river. Now
that just chaps me...
Or maybe one of those palaces, with the nice spray
painted gold floors,tub,sink and almost everything in
the house "YES EVEN THE DOGS, Now thats COOL"!!!

Man, Life just ain't fair......
I wonder if I could get my old double-wide in the
front of that palace!
Would be a nice area for a white trash trailer park,
you think they would care?

Just thought the humor would be a good change of pace
in here.

G. Iulius Scaurus S.P.D.

Avete, Quirites.

Here's a link to a very interesting webesite religious organization
dedicated to the worship of Mithras, and the revival of Mithraism & he
Mithraic Mysteries, the Mithraeum site:

http://www.mithraeum.org/

As Mithraic Reconstructionist they faced extremely difficulty in
recovering the cultus and theology of ancient Mithraism. Several very
valuable essays on Mithraic reconstruction, as well as a large
selection of websites devoted to the worship of Mithras and almost all
the questrons encountered from the well-intended public to pompous
hecklers about a modern group aatempting to breathe new life into an
ancient faith.

Salve,

There is one thing I have wondered about the failed
effort to to rescue POWs in Viet Nam for some time.
The POWs were moved shortly before the raid. When John
Walker was arrested for selling Cryptological codes to
the USSR about a dozen years later it came out that
the USSR had these codes at the time of the raid. It's
possible that the KGB warned Hanoi about the raid and
that was the reason that the rescuers arrived at an
empty camp. I would love to find out if Walker was the
reason that raid failed.

From: =?iso-8859-1?q?Lucius=20Arminius=20Faustus?= <lafaustus@yahoo.com.br>
Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2003 10:37:38 -0300 (ART)
On the twilight of today, sacred 19th april, I hereby end the Ludi Cerealia 2756.

The joy and pleasure it gave to the Res Publica is clear now. It was also a responsability to the Plebeain Aedilship and its staff, accomplished with mastery and delight. The Cerealia 2756 is finished, but isn´t over. The Cerealia Literary Contest remains on judgement, the winners shall be known after 22th april. We look also to give special rewards to the ones who have showed a great deal of commentement on the Contests and competence on helping the games. There is no law forbiding a magistrate honouring the virtue between his citizens. I would like to warmly thank my colleague, M. Scribonius Curio Britanicus, and the flaminen Cerealis, H. Rutilius Bardulus. Specially him showed how a priest on humbleness and without title ostentation can give real and strong support for feeding the religio romana. Like the old romans did. I also make an appeal for the Senate look foward studies for a deep participation of as many citizens as possible, since the Ludi, still inperfect I know, are the opportunity to on Concordia and joy gather the novo romans around the world. The participation and compromise of the old citizens is a key thing if we want NR grow. No glory or gala is needed to help Nova Roma. Just a little ant work of everyone. Wrong and unhappy is the man who seeks personal glory on Nova Roma. I also adress to citizens look foward on the Cerealia official site: http://geocities.yahoo.com.br/ludicerealia . For more information on winners and works, good cultural information and research for everything about goddess Ceres. I also appeal to the Curator Araneum et Consules to help us to keep it on NR Archives ad majorem res Publica gloriam, like the old Aediles did on the past. The memory of the past ludi, althought humble and imperfect, are a testimony of the mission of NR.

Finally, I must praise Mother Ceres, goddess of the agriculture and the Plebeian Class. Without their blessings, nothing would be accomplished.

Salve Portice my friend,

Thank you for your Easter wishes; my best regards to you and your
family this Easter weekend!

I have on my drilling location two sat systems:

1) A Globalstar sat phone: It is ok for quick letters like this one
and for data transmissions like charts, geologic logs, charts etc but
too slow and expensive (.90 US / min) at 9600 baud.

2) Peleton Satellite: This system is supplied by Pason Systems, a
company which supplies the well data gathering equipment to the
drilling contractor. Just came out over the last year and has not
been used that much yet. You essentially have a large satellite dish
about 6 ft in diameter. There is a hub or box that works on the Ether
net system through Pasn's server. I have an Ether PCI card that
connects to this system by a phone cable and bingo I'm on the
internet. This system was set up to essentially send in "real time"
data to the oil companies.
It is good, very good! It is high speed internet and works just as
fast as a the cable TV type connections back home. I'll find out if
this system is available to the general public and how much it costs.
The beauty with this system is that I can send my complex secure data
very fast as well as keeping in touch with my fellow Nova Romans,
free of charge!

Regards,

Quintus Lanius Paulinus

Subject: [Nova-Roma] Question re: Emperors and the Circus factions
From: John Walzer <jwalzer5@comcast.net>
Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2003 12:45:44 -0400

Salvete Omnes:

I have a question regarding the factions of the circus and, recognizing that there are probably many on this list with a consummate knowledge of the subject, would appreciate any information you could offer. This more properly concerns Byzantine history, but as Constantinople was the "second Rome," I hope list members will not be offended.

I read in Alan Cameron's "Circus Factions" that Anastasius I (492-518 CE) was the only Emperor who affiliated himself with the Reds (though John Julius Norwich, in his 3-volume History of Byzantium, asserts that this Emperor eventually openly espoused the Greens), but that he only "reserved his favours for the Reds so as to be free in his dealings with both the two major colours." Is there any evidence that any other Emperor, Roman or Byzantine, ever openly aligned himself (or herself, in the case of Irene, Zoe and Theodora) with a faction OTHER THAN the Blues or Greens? (Procopius only seems to mention Blues and Greens.)

Cameron asserts that the idea of a society polarized into Blue/Green factions, each with a specific political agenda, is a modern construct - that the Blue/Green dichotomy was primarily theatre-, rather than circus-oriented - and that when an Emperor alligned himself, "the colour itself did not matter. What did was that the emperor should favour a colour, any colour, to demonstrate himself the 'civilis princeps,' the ruler who did not disdain the pleasures of his people," and this would seem reconcilable with the idea of the races themselves as a way for the populace to "blow off steam" that might otherwise find a more destructive release in civil disturbances. If, however, we disallow such a narrow interpretation and accept the Reds and Whites as circus factions, and also accept Cameron's assertion that the Reds and Whites, while remaining "minor" factions, did not "wither away" in the late Empire (i.e., Byzantine), is there any evidence that the Emperors, down to 1453, took any notice or had any dealings with these lesser factions?

If you've read this far, thanks for your patience.

Vale

Of all the mysteries surrounding the GP (and what has happened about the Gantenbrink Hatch?) its material is not one: the GP is built mainly of granite, some of it bending under the strain, and Cairo is built mainly of the GP, at least its limestone casing which would have made it a beacon at midday.

You mean you're not queueing up there for the oil concessions? As somebody remarked last night in a question & answer programme, the bloody obvious we all forget, if the US/UK wish to ignore the UN and rest of the world to get a slice of action on Iraqi oil, wouldn't it be a lot simpler and cheaper to ignre the UN and rest of the world by buying it from Saddam desperate to sell and stuff sanctions they put in place, than all the costs of war?

Oil was an important part, put it was the least of the Allies goals.
The real reason was to right a wrong that US caused in the '80s,
and a friendly base of operations in Middle East. Rylaeh is not friendly

If Capturing Oil was the primary goal the US would
have had fewer logistal problems in conquering Canada,
Mexico, or Venezula, all of whom it imports more oil
from than Iraq.

When it comes to nasty regimes, there's not much Saddam or the Taliban could teach the Saudis, that's true enough. I don't pretend for a moment that there aren't entirely pragmatic reasons of US influence involved but I am a little tired of expecting sainthood on the invaders' side. They are there now, things will go wrong and people will be as irrational as they usually are. At least, goodbye Saddam!

Salvete!

I'm not widely known for my idolatry for Nova Roma (in fact I'm also listed along the nutcases on the spinoff page ;-)), but this gentleman beats it all. What an intelligent opinion! It totally blew me off my socks! Sorry pal, but I think you need to go back to class... you have a wrong name. "Octavian" is not Latin but English.

Valete...

G. Iulius Scaurus S.P.D.

Avete, Quirites.

Once again without all the typos (nota sibi: proofread, dammit, and
don't post after a party, pace Baccho).

Here's a link to a very interesting website of a religious
organization dedicated to the worship of Mithras, and the revival of
Mithraism and the Mithraic Mysteries, the "Mithraeum" site:

http://www.mithraeum.org/

As Mithraic Reconstructionists they face extreme difficulty in
recovering the cultus and theology of ancient Mithraism. Several very
valuable essays on Mithraic reconstruction, as well as a large
selection of links to websites devoted to the worship of Mithras and
essays on almost all the questions encountered from a well-intended
public about a modern group attempting to breathe new life into an
ancient faith.

Valete, Quirites.

G. Iulius Scaurus
