1). Ersilia D' Ambrosio, Roberto Meneghini, Rossella Rea. "Nuovi frammenti di piante marmoree dagli scavi dell' aula di culto del Templum Pacis", Bullettino della Commissione Archeologica Comunale di Roma. 112, (2011).
In 2006, an excavation carried out by the Soprintendenza Speciale per i Beni Archeologici di Roma in the chamber of the Templum Pacis brought to light four new fragments of marble maps. These fragments are not part of the severan Forma Urbis, but scraps of a stone workshop working in the area at least since the reconstruction of its buildings after the fire of the 192 AD. This workshop made probably marble-copies of pieces of the cadastral relief of Rome, which were used as official administrative acts. The finds described in the followed paper can be identified as documents of this kind.
2). Mattia Crespi, Ulisse Fabiani, Paolo Carafa, Maria Teresa D' Alessio. L' utilizzo delle tecnologie geomantiche e la Forma Urbis: un nuovo approccio, Bullettino della Commissione Archeologica Comunale di Roma. 112, (2011).
The paper illustrates a methodology for the analysis of the Forma Urbis, aiming to estimate the metric content of the marble Plan, in order to ascertain if it is actually a topographic map or an unreal representation. For this purpose mathematical techniques and computing methods have been applied to verify the relationship between the structures reproduced on the fragments of the Forma Urbis and the achievements of archaeological topography.
The validity of the methodology has been specifically tested on a group of fragments of the Theatre of Marcellus and the Temples of the Forum Holitorium, resulting in a different proposal for the location of these monuments.

Title: Roll call votes relating to the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson on Articles II, III, and XI., 05/26/1868
Production Date: May 26, 1868
Creator(s): U.S. Senate. (03/04/1789 - )
Roll call votes relating to the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson on Articles II, III, and XI., 05/26/1868 ; Senate Papers Pertaining to the Impeachment of Andrew Johnson, ca. 1867 - ca. 1869; Records of the U.S. Senate, 1789 - 2005; Record Group 46; National Archives.
The first Senate vote in the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson was taken on May 16, 1868. Article XI was called the “omnibus article” because it combined all of the charges against the President. As a result of 19 voting “Not Guilty” and 35 voting “Guilty” the Senate fell 1 vote short of the two-thirds majority required for removal. After a 10-day recess, the Senate reconvened and voted on Articles II and III. In each case, the result was identical: Johnson was not guilty by a single vote. The Senate then voted to end the trial.

Found a load of these in the derelict Everton Library in a pigeon s**t encrusted cupboard that was also covered in flaking paint and partially open to the elements. I knew local kids used to gain access into the building and cause damage, so I took them home with me. I informed Liverpool City Council about them, but they never got back to me. I also informed a Councillor in January 2005 at the inaugral meeting of the Friends of Liverpool Monuments. He told he'd look into it and get back to me. I'm still waiting. So I guess it makes me the custodian of them. They're huge documents, folding out to over 3 feet in length.
While renovating the old Victorian home, these items were found in the wall. The wall panels were being removed to make way for cabinets.

وَ ألقوا بها بعيداً ,
إلى حيث لا تعلمون !
اختبروا ثقتكم بالله , وَ حجم إيمانكم به ,
اقذفوا كل تساؤلاتكم بعيداً , واذهبوا إليه , اذهبوا إلى الله الذي لايموت ..

A telegram note supposedly handwritten by Abraham Lincoln to Cornelius Bushnell, June 19th, 1863. "Washington is in danger! Rebel iron clad coming over land on wheels! Make nine monitors by tomorrow night and charge them to me.
- Abraham Lincoln"
In 2017 after careful expert analysis, its likely this 'telegram' was a prank played on Cornelius by friends or colleagues; it is not Lincoln's handwriting and the envelope and telegram mastheads don't match. And Lincoln never joked about the conduct of the war, especially in easily intercepted telegrams.
Framed in black on mat.
Donor: George S. Watson
Provenance: Given in memory of Charlotte Scranton Bushnell Watson and her husband Gilbert Watson. She was the only daughter of Cornelius Bushnell.

Ephemera from fieldwork conducted by Sara Roahen for an oral history project documenting ya-ka-mein in New Orleans. Spring 2012.
These letters document the process by which Joseph Chamberlain was able to secure Andrew Carnegie’s substantial gift of £50,000 some of which was put towards the construction of new buildings for science teaching at the university.
At first Carnegie was reluctant for his gift to be used to fund additional academic posts and wanted it to be spent on new buildings for science teaching. Chamberlain tried to explain that the Mason College building already provided what was required and that the money was desperately needed to fund new posts. Carnegie was convinced that whatever buildings and apparatus already existed at Mason College would not be suitable for a modern scientific university and threatened to withdraw his offer unless the money was spent as he wished, prompting Chamberlain’s diplomatic response explaining recent scientific investment in Mason College but promising to seek Carnegie’s advice regarding the purchase of additional apparatus and to arrange a visit to higher education institutions in North America to see scientific facilities there if he was given freedom to spend the money as it was needed. Carnegie agreed to this, and conceded that part of his donation could be used for endowment if part was spent on buildings and equipment.
An Advisory committee was formed, and its members visited North America in November 1899 and British colleges in early 1900

It's cool what you can find if you dig around. The first few pages of this old beast (the 4.2 litre Spare Parts Catalogue) are pretty beat, but everything is in there, and there are some interesting notes from the mechanics.

Acknowledgement of Deeds by Commissioners of the Common Pleas Sarah Hewlings, wife of William Hewlings. The Property was located at St. Margaret, Lecister. Also mentioned Henry Johnson, John Hettersley, Colin Campbell Macaulay and Dated 12th April 1839.
The two Commissioners were, Samuel Stone, Joseph Harris of Leicester, Attorney’s and Commissioners.
Sometimes known as Married Women’s Deeds or Acknowledgement of Deeds by Married Women. A Document to record that a Wife was of full age, competent to understand, had been examined apart from her husband and voluntarily consented to the sale of Land and Property. The main intention was to ensure that a wife could not claim the right of Dower from the purchaser after her husband’s death. Single women and Widows had the right to own properties in their own right so were not covered by this 1833 Act.
The Declaration: Sometimes this first declaration could be signed by someone other than an Attorney and Commissioner (Gentleman, Farmer etc) who knew the woman. Normally it was signed by an Attorney who was a Commissioner of the Court of Common pleas. Then signed by a second Commissioner who declared he had no knowledge or interest in the transaction and as far as he was aware neither did the first Commissioner. Sometimes the document would also be signed by another Commissioner (for Oaths) or by a Judge in his Chambers.
A second document, the Certificate, gave the names of the two Commissioners, wife and husband. A précis of the Indenture connected to the sale was given, naming all who were named in the indenture.
1916 Priroda VI 1 1375 T_30
God. 1885. istaknuti hrvatski prirodoslovci (među njima: Spiridion Brusina, Gjuro Pilar, Dragutin Gorjanović-Kramberger, Antun Heinz i Fran Kesterčanek) osnovali su Hrvatsko naravoslovno družtvo, sa svrhom da se u Hrvatskoj, slično kao u zemljama razvijenog zapada, počnu njegovati prirodne znanosti.
Prvi predsjednik Društva bio je Spiridion Brusina, tada upravitelj Hrvatskoga narodnog zoološkog muzeja u Zagrebu i prvi profesor zoologije na Zagrebačkom sveučilištu.
God. 1886. Društvo je pokrenulo znanstveni časopis: "Glasnik hrvatskoga prirodoslovnog družtva" koji danas izlazi pod nazivom "Periodicum biologorum". Časopis objavljuje znanstvene članke na engleskom jeziku, izlazi 6 puta godišnje i nalazi se u bazi podataka SCIE (Science Citation Index Expanded, Thomson-Reuters).
God. 1903. Društvo je, u Zagrebu, utemeljilo Zvjezdarnicu na Popovom tornju, a 1965. planetarij u Tehničkom muzeju. U okviru programa Zvjezdarnice pokrenuto je nekoliko časopisa: "Bošković, Kalendar Zvjezdarnice HPD-a", "Čovjek i svemir" i "Bolid". Do 1999. godine Zvjezdarnica je bila u sklopu Hrvatskog prirodoslovnog društva, a zatim se izdvojila u zasebnu ustanovu, pod okriljem grada Zagreba.
God. 1911. Društvo je počelo izdavati časopis za popularizaciju prirodnih znanosti: "Priroda", koji izlazi bez prekida do danas. Popularni članci objavljuju se na hrvatskom jeziku, a godišnje izlazi 12 brojeva.
U svrhu popularizacije znanosti Društvo je pokrenulo nekoliko knjižnica: "Popularna biblioteka" (10 knjiga), "Odabrana djela iz prirodoslovlja" (4 knjige), "Mala naučna knjižnica HPD-a" (109 svezaka) i "Knjižnica Prirode" (28 svezaka ).
This is a hard copy of all the work it took to get my Flickr Pro account reinstated. As you can see, this took nearly month, given email and phone calls. The short version: I had a Pro account thanks to my AT&T Yahoo internet service, then it was gone. Emailed Flickr. They said "it's an AT&T Yahoo billing issue. Call them."
Called AT&T Yahoo. "All fine here. Contact Flickr again."
Flickr: "No, call AT&T Yahoo again."
AT&T Yahoo: "have you tried Yahoo Billing? Maybe they know."
Yahoo Billing: "mm, nope. Try AT&T Yahoo, but technical services."
AT&T Yahoo Tech: "Not us. Contact Flickr again."
Flickr: "You need to call AT&T Yahoo."
me:"I did that."
Flickr: "did you try their SALES department?"
AT&T Yahoo Sales: "What's Flickr?"
and on
and on
and on.
I finally posted a desperate message in Flickr's help forum & was promptly (sic) helped.
I'm a Pro again. I'm through with training, ready for the championship.
In 2023, I started a photographic record of the mushrooms in Panama. The available scientific information is limited, and there are still few who formally study them.
Es un documento que data del siglo X, la cual es un incunable debido a su trascendencia antigua unica en su genero.

If it is, it's a pest, accidentally imported from China or Japan, likely as a stowaway in packing crates, and first documented in the U.S. in 1998.
It is a "true bug," characterized by sucking mouthparts -- with a "beak" called a rostrum. Stinkbugs feed on plants; assassin bugs and ambush bugs feed on insects. This one appeared in my house suddenly -- maybe a stowaway in a pot of tulips from the grocery store, or having simply snuck in to get out of that 9 degree (F) (-12.8 C) chill we had a couple of days ago.
Fortunately I brought home half a dozen bug books from the libraries while researching ambush bugs and bees for an drawing in progress. It took a photograph and several books to get me close, and then the internet to get from one not-quite-right bug to another. Finally a nearly identical photo showed up under one of the false leads, and voila! I think I have it.
Thanks to Dr PhotoMoto I learned that many insects have ocelli -- simple eyes -- along with or instead of compound eyes. This one has two tiny round red ocelli just to the inside of his/her big "bug eyes." Also a pair of mostly invisible wings that overlap at the rear; parts of them show up slightly pinkish in the photo (see it below in the comments section) -- from the light, or a reflection from the red cap in there holding a plant I offered him. He's just under 1.5 cm long.
