Subject: New Nova Britannia Provincia Website! :)

Salvete, Omnes,

I am pleased to announce that a new website for the Nova Britannia (New
England) Provincia has just been created! It can be found in the "Provincia"
section of the Collis Capitolinus pages of the Nova Roma website.

The actual URL of the site is:
<A HREF="<a href="http://venus.beseen.com/boardroom/g/51339/" target="_top" >http://venus.beseen.com/boardroom/g/51339/</a>> </A>h<A
HREF="<a href="http://members.aol.com/NovaRomaNH/">ttp://members.aol.com/NovaRomaNH/</A" target="_top" >http://members.aol.com/NovaRomaNH/">ttp://members.aol.com/NovaRomaNH/</A</a>
>

The site is as finished as it can be for the present. There is a section for
each Regio in the Nova Britannia province, as well as a message board and
events calendar. There is also info on the Religio Romana and something on
Roman Reenacting.
In the (hopefully near) future more specific info will be available for each
individual Regio as new Citizens come on board, etc.

Oh, I'm still new at this website stuff, so if anyone sees any obvious
errors, please be kind enough to Email me directly so that I can make
changes. Thanks!

Valete,

Marcus Cassius Julianus
Proconsul
Nova Britannia Provincia

>>Prospectus:
>>
>>Classical, Medieval, and Byzantine scholars have long relied on academic
>>symposia and printed media to disseminate the fruits of their research.
>>In the last two decades, the Internet and the World Wide Web have made
>>new forms of publication possible. Electronic journals have been founded,

>>Imperatoribus Romanis, Perseus, Diotima, ORB, Lacus Curtius, the Stoa,

>>On the other hand, the Internet has not yet established itself altogether

So I assume that liquamen and garum are the same thing. A number of people
here have tried the Thai garum-esque stuff, and I have developed quite a
liking for it. If anyone out there has been looking for a new way to flavor
tofu in stir-fry dishes, you may want to try slowly sauteeing small tofu
cubes in 3 teaspoons of garum, then adding it to the stir-fried vegetables.
Easy and good.

The Senate has successfully completed some of its voting! These first two items are dealing with governor appointments. Here they are as listed:

Item 1: Lucia Maria Fimbria as governor of SW US Province, term to last
until Dec. 31, 2000: With 9 senators voting, 8 yes, 1 no. Item is
passed.

Item 2: Gaius Iunius Germanus as governor of NW US Province, term to
last until Dec. 31, 2000: With 9 senators voting, 8 yes, 1 abstain. Item
is passed.

Pending before the Senate is the establishment of the Province of Pannonia and its first Governor and we are dealing with budget that Praetor Audens presented before the Senate.

Congratulations to Lucia Maria Fimbria and Gaius Iunius Germanus!

Consul
