I might not be well versed in everything that's going on, but it
seems to me we don't have to be too worried. NR has grown
much from even the time I first became a citizen, which wasn't
that long ago. Aside from certain things that could use a bit of
fixing, I'd say NR is still doing pretty well.

As to the plea that the Senate put aside its differences and think
about the good of NR before themselves, I agree and would also
ask that of all citizens. One of the core values I've had to learn as
an AFROTC cadet is "Service Before Self" which I find fitting to a
citizen's responsiblity to NR.

Salve,

Pardon my absence of the past couple of weeks. I finally have new
internet access that actually allows, gosh, access instead of a busy
signal. I see I missed, well, lets just call it interesting times.

Pax,

Marcus Prometheus:
Dear Gryllus,
Please some questions:
The procession of the canophori is it the same as the procession of the
Argei?
And in this case is it the 15th March
or
the 16 th _and_ 17th as I find on other calendars, even the NR calendar
online?

Best regards and thanks in advance

Today and for the next four days, I will be offering devotions to
Minerva in honor of the Greater Quinquatrus. I particularly ask her
favor for the safety of Nova Romans serving in their macronational
armed forces, for wisdom to guide our micronation forward, and for the
greatest possible health and skill for all of us and our families.

May Minerva bless you today! If you'd like to make an offering to her
yourself, or to learn more about the festival, visit the Religio Romana
section of the NR Web site:

Salvete Quirites,

The Republic's first year of tax collections seems to be going
smoothly. Here is an update:

144 civies from 22 Provinciae all over the world have paid in a total
of $1,680.00 US. Payments have come in the form of Paypal, checks,
international money orders, US currency, and even some Euros ;-)
Eleven cives of Hispania got together is a demonstration of
Provincial organazation and all paid in a single Paypla transaction
(which also saves us Paypal fees) - Bravo!

Moneys are systematically transferred from the Paypal account to Nova
Roma's bank account in Maine, USA. For those who have paid via check
and are wondering why the check has not cleared, I am still working
to get bank deposit slips so I can mail the checks to the bank in
Maine and ensure proper crediting. All checks have been endorsed in
favor of Nova Roma "for deposit only" in the Maine bank, which
prohibits them being cashed or used any other way.

These moneys will go a long way toward furthering Nova Roma's goals.
For those interested the current year's budget as approved by the
Senate can be found at:

http://www.novaroma.org/aerarium_saturni/budget2755.html

Remember, one-half of the taxes collected will be returned to the
Provinciae for use therein.

Recent events have caused some to post regarding how far they believe
our young Republic has come. These tax collections are further
evidence of that growth. Gratia to those who were able to, and have,
contributed.

Further, the assistance provided by our Consuls and my colleague
Titus Octavius Pius has been invaluable and much appreciated.

Respectfully,
Gaius Popillius Laenas
Consular Quaestor
2755 a.u.c.

willingness to get together and come to a common conclusion / and
decision.

My thanks for your loyalty and adherence to Nova Roma, and for your
example. I am very impressed!!!!

Lend voice, my Muse, to this my song
To the Goddess, let all of us sing
And keep this festival of March
With voice and with lyre string

Minerva's graces we praise this day
As we gather at the shine
Of Bright-Eyed Tritogenia
Upon the Aventine

But humble each of you your heart
To approach her sacred hall
Though she made Bellerophon to ride on Pegasus' wings
His pride so made made him fall

Her gifts of learning and wisdom
The haughty Paris spurned
Only to bring low old Priam's head
As sacred Illium burned

Arachne too, though mortal
Dared compare herself to her
Arachne once wove beautifully;
Arachnid weaves forever

Muses followers, and all manner scholars
Whatever be your art
Invite Brighteyes to share in these
And thou shalt win her heart

{G. Cassius Nerva}
