Salvete Quirites.

I would like to give a warm welcome to all those new citizens that
are joining us in the last few days. It is great to see Nova Roma
grow! I hope that you all enjoy your stay.

I would also like to remind them (and everyone else) that the
Academia Thules ( http://www.insulaumbra.com/academiathules/ ) has
prepared a Basic Course about Nova Roma specifically aimed at these
newbies. The course, as usual, is free, and all are welcome.

In this course we will study the different aspects of life in Nova
Roma: how our institutions work, what have we done until now, what
can one actually *do* in Nova Roma, etc...
The course will begin on June the 16th and will last until August the
22nd, and will have C. Curius Saturninus (the procurator Academiae)
and your most humble servant as teachers :-).

To learn more about this course, visit de Syllabus Cursuum of the

Exactly. Just like when the governor of Calif. says "We need more money, so
we will raise the sales tax." That is not official it is giving the citizens
far warning of what is about to come. The Tribune made official this
afternoon, by using the correct terms and we now have a 1 day extension,
where before we did not.

Two things are worth pointing out. First, the only way by which a
plebian magistrate can enforce the law regarding duration of contio
and voting in the Comitia Plebis Tributa is by Edictum. In that
sense, an announcement posted in a public forum by a Tribunus Plebis
and stating a change in the duration of contio and voting is an
edictum, regardless of the way in which it is headed. Second, it is,
however, far less potentially confusing when the fact that the
announcement is of an edictum is made explicitly clear. When getting
people out for repeated run-offs is at stake, the greater the official
clarity, the better the chance of maximising turnout. If I might also
make a plea from self-interest, I know that there are edicta which are
not extant in the Tabularium. One of the principal ways in which I am
able to identify such edicta is reading through the ML archives.
Putting "Edictum" in the subject line and the first sentence of a
posting makes it enormously easier for me to track down legal
documents to fill the lacunae without going blind looking through
every line of every posting in the off chance that the edictum was
issued in an informal tone. For the sake of the eyes of this indexer
of the legal texts, magistrates might make it easier for me to find
the edictum in the ML archives if somehow it doesn't make it into the
Tabularium.

Valete.

Ave!

As Gaius Iulius Scarus stated, it would be much clearer if all magistrates who are making policy, establishing some sort of administrative directive, or changing voting times should clearly label their action as an edict so it will be clearly understood that that is the purpose of the post.

Otherwise, we have 400 people on this list, and any post that tries to set any type of administrative procedure is bound to be mis-understood or worse, fail to get included into the Tabularium, which is where all of our legal documents should be stored and available to all citizens.

But on the whole, Gaius Iulius is correct where we do not have a procedure/law that makes a distinction between a post on the ML and an edict. I believe that Senator Q. Fabius was trying to make sure that a clear distinction is made between regular posts on the ML (or other NR lists) and an official act of a magistrate in office.

Respectfully,

Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix

Hmmm, I got Roman paganism as my best choice - even

Fascinating! Roman came at the top of mine, followed by Lithuanian and Nordic Asatru with the Wiccan variants right at the bottom, Egyptian not far off. I used to be in Wicca and I don't find the roman or Nordic gods very amenable but I do rather like Egyptian and the one they don't iclude, Hindu. So I wouldn't put a lot of faith in it. Or maybe it was my mood

Salvete,

Regarding the test...I don't THINK I'm this bad, but...

1. Satanism
2. Discordianism
3. Thelema

... my top three seems to disagree.

Ah well, that's life. All hail Eris!

Salvete,

Can anyone tell me about the LaWren's Nest Wool Tunic and Toga?

Where would be a good place to buy tunics and togas?

Thank You
Quintus Bianchius Rufinus

LOL! I'm not at all surprised! You give off some bizarre vibes even through
the computer :-) You probably should have not clicked 'I agree' when asked
these two questions: "Humor and Chaos should be the primary focus of your
path. " Confronting, embracing, and possibly utilizing darkness and death
are primary elements in your path. "

I think your Paterfamilias may come up with similar scores :-p

I scored:

1) Finish Paganism (where is Finland? ;-)
2) Stregheria (must be in the blood... )
3) Asatru (Ok, Thor is cool!)
17) Roma Paganism (oops!)

Vale,
Diana

Somehow, I suspected this since the very day I first met you, my dear
Tite Octavi :-).

By the way, I have been sooooo boring and predictible as to get the
following results (just my top ten):

1.- Roman Paganism
2.- Anglo-Saxon Heathenry (now *this* was a surprise...)
3.- Druidry
4.- Asatru
5.- Hellenic (I would have expected this to be higher on the list.)
6.- Romuva
7.- Slavic Paganism (always loved vodka :-) .)
8.- Celtic
9.- Mesopotamian Paganism
10.- Finnish Paganism (Saturnine: have you checked this out? ;-) .)

My poorest result was Christian Wicca (#25), with oddities like
Thelema (#23), Satanism (#18) and Discordianism (#16) in pretty low
positions...

A very entertaining questionnaire :-).

I haven't bought a tunic from la wren but have made some myself for both my husband and myself. I have found for my own use that linen is better but my husband says it depends on the weather. If it is warm, then linen is cooler and more comfortable but in the cooler weather wool is prefered. You may however, need to wear a thin linen tunic under the woollen one as some woollen fabrics itch, especially round the neck.
