He did describe those games of skill which were performed by the riders and their horses, and expressed his appreciation for Their Majesty's support of the program. The scores had been tallied and Their Majesties called forth Their new Kingdom Equestrian Champion: Lady Rhiannon filia Catell. Her Majesty also offered a token of admiration for the skill of Alexandra Caithnes. Their Majesties called Desiree before the court. Her Majesty noted that Desiree even in her advanced years, had borne not one but two riders during the Tournament, and did confer unto her The Queen's Award of Excellence. The Katzen Lanze riders presented Their Majesties with a small horse outfitted in Mongol saddle and barding. Their Majesties declared that AEthelmearc is mad for melee and expressed Their gratitude and appreciation for all of those who combatants who attended and participated in the various marshaled activities throughout the day.

Pax Interruptus will begin late Friday June 27 through mid-day Sunday in the Barony of Thescorre. Come out and take part in one of your last chances to test your mettle against your skilled fellows before War! Bring your best tips to share and strengthen our forces. At the same time, set your mind to accept that there can be something others will bring to improve your own! This camping event is an excellent opportunity to be sure all your gear is prepared for the onslaught of the elements that will challenge us in another month's time in western Pennsylvania. http://www.thescorre.org/calendar/events/pax2008.htm will lead you to all the details you need know to come witness the glorious deeds that will be displayed for, and by, our Khan, Khatun, Prince, and Princess. *****Please note that due to the enormous increase in food prices, the lunch planned for Saturday has been regretfully reduced to a light refreshment (most likely comprised of fruit, hydrating beverages, and perhaps some other small suprises). In response to this dastardly betrayal of economics, a counter-strike is being implemented for those with excess to bring a pot of their favorite victuals to share with all friends of the Escarbuncle! Complete info for participation in this retaliation, as well as full menu information for the unaffected evening Feast, will soon be posted on that same webpage.***** While there will be generous tenting space available, as of this morning, there remains only one cabin for rental at the campgrounds.

The Royal Guild of AEthelmearc Metalsmiths will be hosting an informal open hammer-in at Barony Wars I will be bringing anvils, steel, hammers, and forges to Barony Wars, and I would like to invite as many smiths as can to bring tools and supplies as well so that those who wish to learn how to forge can start learning, and those that already forge can. The plan is that (weather permitting) we light the forges at quarter til dark, and forge until we're tired or it's too late for the noise. I will be bringing some blade steel so that folks who would like to learn blade forging can try their hand at it. Anyone interested in forging should not be wearing nylon, polyester or silk, as those materials tend to ignite easily (for this purpose cotton, wool or leather are great, I have a blacksmiths apron that can cover some flamables but I prefer that fate not be tempted) if you have work gloves and safety glasses bring them, if not I have some I can loan and no open topped shoes please, foot burns from forging scale are unpleasant.

Message-ID: <179081.94743.qm@web65504.mail.ac4.yahoo.com> Greetings, Our fine autocrat for Barony Wars suggested that I send this to the Kingdom list also, and not just keep it to ourselves. In keeping with the Bazaar portion of Barony Wars and Bazaar, and with the permission of our two hard-working autocrats, I would like to set up a free exchange of items table near the Troll table. You can drop off SCA related items you no longer use, and maybe pick up something new to you. A free exchange of unwanted items. Like a garage sale without the 25 cent price tags. This is a chance to pass along items that are just collecting dust in your home, but may be happily accepted into someone else's. Please come and drop off garb that you no longer wear (in good condition) - I'm sure there are some who would love to receive well made hand-me-downs. Feast gear that you have replaced with better stuff. Fabric that you purchased because it was on sale, but now you look at it and wonder why you ever wanted it in the first place. Any old, but still usable weapons or armor that you have replaced as your own items got better and newer. Candle holders, unburned candles, old books, movies, costume jewelry you never wear anymore, unneeded buttons and trim, etc. I'm sure we all have some things that we'd like to get rid of, but that can still be used by others. The chatelaine may even find some good items to set aside for newcomers, such as loaner garb or feast gear. The knight marshal may even find some armor pieces to go in the loaner gear bag. At the end of the day on Saturday, any items still remaining will be discarded. Whatever can go to the Salvation Army will go there, and the rest will be thrown away. If you have any questions or suggestions about this idea, please let me know! Thanks!

Lord Pearce Redsmith presented gifts, for Her Majesty a bow in 3 pieces and target arrows, for His Majesty a bag of throwing weapons and to be distributed as They see fit, a number of leather Mongolian tokens. Raeyni-hrefna announced the winners for the Arts and Sciences competition: for the Populace Choice Adult division ? Anastasia de Lamoure's reversible doublet; for the Populace Choice Children's division ? 1st place Robert of Myrkfaelinn's stained window sticker, and a very close 2nd place Kyleigh of Myrkfaelinn's stained glass Pegasus. Nicholas of Windreach was Awarded Arms for his service, pursuit of knowledge, courtesy and kindness (scroll by Mairghead ni Stilbhaid uii Coinn). Magdalena de Mayfield was Awarded Arms for her work as youth chancellor, seamstress and skill at thrown weapons (scroll by Gillian Llewellyn). Cameron of Myrkfaelinn was Awarded Arms for participation in youth combat and his helpful and chivalrous nature (scroll by Zosia Kowalewska, words by Cori Ghora). Lady Christine MacGregor was created a member of the Order of the Sycamore for her talent at cooking at various arts (scroll in progress). Lady Rainagh of Wexford was inducted into the Order of the Golden Alce for her skills with bow and with heavy sword (scroll by Gwylim's Scriptorium). Lord Gavin Kent, one of the current Kingdom Bardic Champions was called upon to perform a song of his own choice. Thus moved by the sweetness of his voice, Their Majesties named him to Their Order of the Sycamore for his bardic skill, woodworking and sewing abilities (zen scroll by Fridrikr Tomasson of Knusslig Hamn). Lord Iain Ard mac an Bhaird was awarded the Order of the Sycamore for his knowledge and teaching about brewing and dance (scroll by Renata the Posh Rot). Lady Gytha Oggesdohtor was inducted into the Order of the Sycamore for her many talents in the arts and for teaching about Viking culture (scroll by Gwylim's Scriptorium). Baron Artemius Andreas Magnus was added to the rolls of the Order of the Golden Alce for his focus on heavy weapons combat (scroll illum by Juliana Delamere, calig by Anlaith ingen Trenna). Reyni-hrefna was Awarded Arms and the Order of the Sycamore for her work as A & S officer, her teaching of wire weaving, fiber arts and cooking (scroll by Bethany). THLady Bridgette Kelly MacLean was commanded to appear before the Court. Their Majesties noted that her artistic skills with various needles had been brought to Their attention and that They were well pleased by her pursuit of this knowledge and willingness to share what she learned with others. Their Majesties requested that the companions of Their Order of the Laurel come forward to witness the Royal Writ issued to Her Ladyship and that the Order should council her with their collective wisdom prior to her return to Their presence at AEthelmearc AEecademy. His Majesty decreed by His own words that in the past there had been a rift in the Kingdom that must be made whole once more. Those fighters residing within AEthelmearc's boundaries who had taken up arms against AEthelmearc last year have been held accountable for their actions and punished; they are now pardoned, so long as they fight with AEthelmearc in the coming year at Pennsic War. We must be united as a Kingdom. Court was closed.

Message-ID: <460381.48605.qm@web39508.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Greetings, all! Pardon this topic shift, but I wanted to share an effort that my Harry Potter group has been working on.Since so many of you are book lovers, among other things, I thought this would be of interest: For five years, HPEF has helped to promote the spread of literacy by producing magical events for fans and scholars. Now you can help share your love of reading (and the Harry Potter novels), just by making a purchase attributed to HPEF at any Barnes & Noble Booksellers the weekend of June 20-22, 2008. All purchases* will help support future HP Education Fanon events, include Portus in Dallas, Level Two in San Jose, and Infinitus at the Universal Orlando Resort. All you need to do is tell the cashier the Bookfair number 310268, or provide the voucher (http://www.portus2008.org/bookfair_voucher.pdf) upon checkout. Whether you purchase a mocha and a scone in the Caf?, your new favorite DVD, or your third copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, a portion of the proceeds will go to help support future HPEF events. The best part is that beginning on June 16, B&N will open their clearance sale, with items up to 50% off. And those purchases count for us, too! *The only things that don't count are textbooks, gift cards, and B&N Membership cards. So if you're planning to buy anything soon, please, help us out by holding off until the weekend of July 20-22, and tell the cashier that your purchase should be applied to Bookfair number 310268. If you know anyone in the Dallas area: You can also help support the Dallas area charity and the Portus Auction beneficiary, LIFT (Literacy Instruction for Texas) by purchasing an item off the LIFT Wish List table in store or over the phone at our host store in Arlington, TX. Any books purchased for LIFT will be used in providing literacy classes to adults surrounding the Dallas area. LIFT was created to address the critical adult literacy issues in Dallas through programs that are accessible to adults at the lowest levels of literacy. With specialized ESL and Family Literacy programs, LIFT focuses on those who would normally be overlooked or ignored in standard educational initiatives. A child?s educational success is greatly increased by a parent who reads and reads with the child. We all know the joy reading Harry Potter has brought to us. Let?s pass that joy on by making a donation of a book to LIFT. If you have a meet up group, and would like to host a meet up at a Barnes & Noble the weekend of June 20-22, please send us an email to pr at portus2008.org. Please pass along this along to your friends, family, and fellow Harry Potter fans. Anyone can help by purchasing during the Bookfair. For more information, please see our Bookfair information page www.portus2008.org/bookfair.htm.

Please forward to any/all Combat Archery mailing lists, archers, & Marshals.After consultation with numerous officers & Society Earl Marshal Hrothgar ... The following ruling is going into effect:"Effective immediately, due to manufacturing issues, all one-piece Baldar Blunts are banned from use on the field. These are the style of blunt that have been made for the last two years, that are all black and from a single mold. Baldar Blunts made of a two-piece mold are fine. Marshals, when inspecting Baldar Blunts that are all-black, look for the circumferential partition line that will exist on two-piece blunts and fail any that do not exhibit this."For reference (I will get some better pictures up later), here are some photos I snagged from the web (Thanks NorthStar):Old two-part mold blunts:http://www.northstararchery.com/images/black_blunts.jpgNew one-part mold blunt:http://www.northstararchery.com/images/Resized/NStar17.jpgNOTE: Duke Baldar has graciously offered to replace ALL one-piece mold blunts with the older two-piece style at his cost. Details of how to effect said replacement will be posted on his website soon: http://houseasgard.com/BaldarBlunts/ALSO: Just for your information, Duke Baldar has decided for various reasons at this point, that other than the replacement batch for the last 2 years worth of blunts, that he will not be making any more Baldar Blunts. All two-part blunts in service will remain legal in Society Rules. He is investigating switching over to providing UHMW style blunts instead in the future.Again, please forward this email to all CA mailing lists & Marshals to ensure that everyone knows.If you have any questions about this ruling, please contact me at this email address.In Service,Lord Siegfried Sebastian Faust - Deputy Society Earl Marshal for Combat ArcheryI also know the difference and I'm happy to help if anyone has any questions.Tessa"Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it" _________________________________________________________________ Enjoy 5 GB of free, password-protected online storage. http://www.windowslive.com/skydrive/overview.html?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_Refresh_skydrive_062008 From muirgens at aol.com Thu Jun 12 10:20:48 2008 From: muirgens at aol.com (muirgens at aol.com) Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2008 10:20:48 -0400 Subject: [SCA-AE] OT - canvas sale In-Reply-To: <747280.19323.qm@web84004.mail.mud.yahoo.com> References: <747280.19323.qm@web84004.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Message-ID: <8CA9AAEA4AD6AAB-DD0-1A6C@FWM-D35.sysops.aol.com> Greetings all!?

We know some of you were wondering whether the decision had been made about whom We were exchanging gifts with at Pennsic, and it has: We will be exchanging gifts with the Kingdom of Ealdormere, Our neighbors to the north! Any artisans who are interested in contributing items to their gift basket may contact Lady Renata. For your inspiration, We offer the information that King Aaron is a late period Roman, and Queen Rustique is Persian. We are excited to see what wonders you will come up with to honor Ealdormere! We are also interested in possibly gifting each of the kingdoms with a bag embroidered with their arms so that they may have a way of carrying home the many things they will bring from Pennsic. If someone would like to take on this project, that would be most appreciated. Thank you all for your great works, you are always an inspiration to Us! -TRM Khalek and Branwyn Khan Khatun From williamfreskynmurray at yahoo.com Thu Jun 12 23:51:56 2008 From: williamfreskynmurray at yahoo.com (William Freskyn Murray) Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2008 20:51:56 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [SCA-AE] A Brief OT Announcement Message-ID: <1155.61290.qm@web54601.mail.re2.yahoo.com> My apologies for this off topic announcement, and to those who get it multiple times, but it's the quickest way to get word out to our SCAdian friends who are keeping up with our adoption. At times throughout this process we thought we would never be making this announcement, but at 3:30 this afternoon our coordinator called Stephanie (Kiersey) to say that our file has been approved by PGN and WE ARE OUT!!! In a nutshell the Guatemalan government has approved our case and here is what is left until we are on a plane home with OUR SON: The adoption decree is issued and signed by us and the birth mother (in our case our lawyer signs because he has power of attorney for us and he may have POA for the birth mom too so this step could be done!). The adoption decree is taken to Atilian where Nicholas was born and given to the birth registry folk, they issue a new birth certificate listing us as his parents. The adoption decree and new birth certificate are taken to the Guatemalan government and he is given a passport. All of this is taken to the US Embassy and they authorize a second DNA test to be done (to ensure it's the same baby that was tested back in September). Once DNA match is confirmed the Embassy orders a final medical exam (which involves the doctor going "LOOK! A BABY!!!"). Once he is deemed healthy they look in their little book of appointments and we get the next one that is open, we will likely only have a few days notice to when our appointment is to catch a flight to Guatemala City. ON AVERAGE from out of PGN to Embassy appointment is 5 to 7 weeks which would put us right around the end of July. Some areas are taking longer to issue birth certificates and as with everything in this process the variables all involve how quickly paperwork gets processed. Over 200 cases have been released in the last 10 days so all of them will be getting to the Embassy around the same time as us. If the stars align we could be there in 3 weeks or it could still be 3 months.... the important thing is that WE WERE APPROVED! Now it's just waiting on paperwork to shuffle (the sweetest sound on earth next to my wife calling me at 3:30 in tears and saying "happy Fathers Day Papa!"). To everyone who has listened to us vent, offered a shoulder, kept us in your prayers, etc THANK YOU! It is highly unlikely that we will be at Pennsic this year as we will either be freshly back, in GC or getting ready to go... but we may day trip to come down and see as many people as possible depending on when we travel. We are not going to bring him into a totally foreign environment then take him to live in a pavilion for a week. Nicholas' DAD!!!

At times throughout this process we thought we would never be making this announcement, but at 3:30 this afternoon our coordinator called Stephanie (Kiersey) to say that our file has been approved by PGN and WE ARE OUT!!! In a nutshell the Guatemalan government has approved our case and here is what is left until we are on a plane home with OUR SON: The adoption decree is issued and signed by us and the birth mother (in our case our lawyer signs because he has power of attorney for us and he may have POA for the birth mom too so this step could be done!). The adoption decree is taken to Atilian where Nicholas was born and given to the birth registry folk, they issue a new birth certificate listing us as his parents. The adoption decree and new birth certificate are taken to the Guatemalan government and he is given a passport. All of this is taken to the US Embassy and they authorize a second DNA test to be done (to ensure it's the same baby that was tested back in September). Once DNA match is confirmed the Embassy orders a final medical exam (which involves the doctor going "LOOK! A BABY!!!"). Once he is deemed healthy they look in their little book of appointments and we get the next one that is open, we will likely only have a few days notice to when our appointment is to catch a flight to Guatemala City. ON AVERAGE from out of PGN to Embassy appointment is 5 to 7 weeks which would put us right around the end of July. Some areas are taking longer to issue birth certificates and as with everything in this process the variables all involve how quickly paperwork gets processed. Over 200 cases have been released in the last 10 days so all of them will be getting to the Embassy around the same time as us. If the stars align we could be there in 3 weeks or it could still be 3 months.... the important thing is that WE WERE APPROVED! Now it's just waiting on paperwork to shuffle (the sweetest sound on earth next to my wife calling me at 3:30 in tears and saying "happy Fathers Day Papa!"). To everyone who has listened to us vent, offered a shoulder, kept us in your prayers, etc THANK YOU! It is highly unlikely that we will be at Pennsic this year as we will either be freshly back, in GC or getting ready to go... but we may day trip to come down and see as many people as possible depending on when we travel. We are not going to bring him into a totally foreign environment then take him to live in a pavilion for a week. Nicholas' DAD!!!

To: atlantia at atlantia.sca.org, dance at atlantia.sca.org, sca-dance at sca-dance.org, KnightsCrossing at yahoogroups.com, DW-L at drachenwald.sca.org, meadowmarsh at yahoogroups.com Salvete! ??? I am hereby announcing that the next Academia della Danza, to be held in the 15th c. Pfaelzer Schloss, will take place from March 15th to March 13th.? Mark your calendars now for another magical, fire-lit weekend in another time. Judith The right noble lord Baron of the Ancient lands of Knights Crossing has declared that his subjects, noble in their demeanour, should learn the ancient art of dance, that they may better grace his court with knowledge of this gentler art. To this effect, he has hired sundry dance masters from lands far and wide to come and provide instruction. For one weekend, his holding, the Pfaelzer Schloss, shall play host to a school of dance, known in the tongue of more refined courts as an academia della danza. In addition to learning, there shall be terpsichorean revels and a ball as no one has seen in many years. The lord baron bids one and all to come and partake! Site information: Pfaelzer Schloss, Pfaelzergasse, Gross Umstadt, Germany. Site opens at 1500 on Friday, March 13, and closes on Sunday, March 15 at 1500 (we must be cleaned up and out of the Hall by this point). Site is wet (which could significantly aid the rhythmically challenged in the pursuit of happiness..); there are no showers on site. Site is limited to 110, Classes: Classes will begin at 19:00. The last class will finish at 1300 on Sunday, March 15. There will be two tracks of classes, to suit all tastes: a beginner track, and an intermediate/advanced track. Ball: There will be a formal ball on Saturday evening following feast, which will be a reconstruction of a ball chronicled in Ulm in 1503. After this, there will be an open revel; dancers may then "pay" the musicians for their dances of choice with eggs (to be purchased on site, all proceeds go directly to the musicians). Food: There will be a hearty stew provided Friday evening, breakfast, lunch and feast on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday (with leftovers from feast serving as lunch). Sleeping arrangements: There is crash space (no bedding) in the two halls on site in the castle (one of which is not heated), but you must have your bedding packed up and stored away out of sight during the day as these are the same two halls in which we will be dancing. Otherwise, Gross Umstadt is a charming little medieval town with numerous reasonably priced inns (reasonable = 50-90 EUR for a double room per night), one of which sits directly across the street from the castle, the Hotel Hax. Cost: Total cost for the weekend will be 30 EUR per person over 12. Children 7-12 10 EUR for the weekend. Children under 7 are free. There will be a family cap of 60 EUR for the weekend. Travel: For those who are travelling from afar, crash space can be arranged in the days before and after the event--- turn it in to a central European vacation! The nearest airport is Frankfurt International (not frankfurt Hahn, which is 250 km from the site). We will attempt to arrange transport as much as possible. ________________________________________________________________ To send mail to the entire list, be sure sca-dance at sca-dance.org is listed in the To line of any response.

Replies and questions are sent to discussion at aethelmearc.org or directly to the person making the announcement. ________________________________________________________________________ -----Original Message----- From: announcements-bounces at lists.sca.org [mailto:announcements-bounces at lists.sca.org] On Behalf Of Patrick Anderson Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2008 11:58 AM To: announcements at sca.org Subject: [Announcements] Waterbearing proposal request for comments >From the President, Patrick Anderson: Earlier this year, I was asked by several people in the waterbearing community to examine the various laws of states and countries related to waterbearing as an organized and official activity of the SCA, Inc. Various states have informed officers of the SCA, Inc. that while our activity does not directly violate the food codes or health regulations of their states, if there were to be an outbreak of illness, the SCA, Inc. could be held liable for that outbreak. Several health care professionals and attorneys have reviewed this topic and agree with this assessment. I was asked to examine the best way to both ensure a safe fighting environment for our fighters, and to comply with the various state and country laws. The relevant laws vary from state by state, county by county and country by country. I determined that the best way to do this would be to make "waterbearing" unofficial and unsanctioned by the SCA, Inc. and proposed this change to the Board. The only other option would be to regulate waterbearing, and to regulate it such that it follows the various food safety codes of the various states and countries the SCA participates in. This would be unwieldy, impractical and expensive for the SCA to do. Further, it is likely that waterbearers would not be able to continue to serve our fighters using any of the current methods of waterbearing. The proposal put before the membership for comment would stop waterbearing by any SCA branch or other official group. The SCA would not have an office of waterbearer at any level. Marshals would still be permitted to allow waterbearers on the field, but any waterbearing must not be done by any officially sanctioned or regulated groups of the SCA. Households are welcome to provide water to fighters, as are unofficial and unrecognized "guilds". This does not bar groups from putting out the "serve yourself water coolers" at events. (In my Kingdom they are usually the big orange cylinders.) The Board and Corporate officers understand that many people have spent time waterbearing within the official framework, and now hope that you continue to volunteer unofficially. This proposal has been brought to enable fighters to continue to have a waterbearing service provided to them, without the extremely strict governance that official waterbearing will require. The actual text of the proposed rule is below. This rule has not yet been approved by the Board, and is being sent out for comment here. The Directors request comments from the membership regarding this proposed revision no later than October 1st, 2008. Please send them to: Corpora Revision SCA Inc. Box 360789 Milpitas CA, 95036 email: comments at sca.org Thank you for commenting. Patrick Anderson President, Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc. Proposed language to be added to Corpora: The activity of providing beverages to combatants and spectators at SCA Combat activities is not regulated, warranted, organized, controlled, or sanctioned by the SCA, Inc. or any affiliate or subsidiary entity. All warrants, authorizations, or other formal recognition of this activity are by publication of this change revoked. This document does not either address or restrict such volunteer activity or the methods by which it occurs. -- Patrick Anderson President Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc. president at sca.org 952-412-4112 Comments are strongly encouraged and can be sent to: SCA Inc.

Are you concerned about the price of food and gas these days, and is this curbing how many events you attend or whether you stay onboard? Do you find yourself more and more often bringing your own food to events because lunch isn't offered or there isn't enough? Cooks: when planning an event lunch or dinner, how can you prepare a period meal that is filling, varied, and delicious -- while keeping it affordable so that people want to stay onboard? Sitting down to eat together is one of the cornerstones of the SCA -- let's not allow the economy to make this a thing of the past! We shared some great ideas at the last roundtable at AE War Practice. As promised, I'm repeating this roundtable at AEcademy. I welcome all inquiring minds to participate in the Frugal Feasts roundtable Saturday from 3:30 to 4:30.

I have asked Mazelle Attiya, the Society Exchequer and Interim Corporate Treasurer, to address those. Her comments are below. I appreciate your patience and your well-thought out comments. Patrick President, Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc. Letter from Mazelle Attiya follows: Allow me to address two specific questions that numerous people have asked in regards to the proposal dealing with water bearing activities. 1. Does it mean that we can't use SCA Funds to purchase water, Gatorade, food, etc for the fighters? The answer is yes, groups, including kingdoms and the major wars can still use SCA Funds to purchase supplies and food products for the populaces' use. Donations can still be taken for this but instead of it going to the Waterbearer's Fund; it will have to be place into a different Fund. I will be discussing this with all the kingdom exchequers. The group funds currently set aside for waterbearing would still belong to the group to purchase water, etc. It just is not labeled as belonging the guild/office anymore. 2. What happens to the equipment and supplies that belong to the office? Since SCA Funds were probably used to purchase the equipment and supplies, then it all belongs to the group that bought the items. The items still need to be listed on inventory and in the case of items valued over $500 have to be included on the depreciation schedule of the group as should currently be the case. Nothing changes there at all. The best analogy that I can give is the following: think of the Waterbearer's Office as a division of a large corporation. If the division is dissolved then the assets would be absorbed back into the rest of the corporation. Same sort of scenario is happening here. There is no impact financially as to who can use a group's equipment, however individual groups might have policies in place that restrict usage, such as not allowing individuals from borrowing equipment for usage outside of the SCA. You do not need to be an officer of a group to use its property. Feastcrats/Headcooks would be a good example of non officers using group property. If any one has any further questions or comments, they may contact me at treasurer at sca.org.

Morning. Their Majesties called forth THLady George and instructed those members of the Order of the Pelican to escort her to her vigil chamber and dispense unto her their collective wisdom on being a Peer. Evening. Their Majesties invited Baron Angus Kerr of Concordia of the Snows to join Their Court. Their Majesties gave leave to his Excellency, Baron Ulrich of Endless Hills to hold a brief Court. Their Majesties called before Them the autocrats of Barony Wars and Bazaar 3, Robert O'Conner and Eoghan Rurikson, who did announce the final results of the war points. Endless Hills was awarded 2 points and Baron Ulrich received a small siege engine and soldiers to train for next year's war. Delftwood was awarded 4 points and likewise, their Excellencies, Artemius and Clarice, were gifted with a siege weapon and soldiers. As those in the hall collectively held their breath in suspense, it was finally announced that with 11 points, the Barony of Concordia of the Snows had won the day. The great war chest, over flowing with treasure, was presented to Baron Angus who declared that the prizes within would be divided among all those who had fought with Concordia in the various battles. Lady Ysabeau Tiercelin presented Their Majesties with six red escarbuncled tabards for use by their retinue. Lord Gavin Kent, one of the current Kingdom Bardic Champions and organizer of the day's bardic competition, introduced the first of the three finalists, Mischief (Lady Helene al-Zarqa) who performed a song on the theme of "the Steppes". Lord Septimus Severius Salvatoriensis Caecus was awarded the Order of the Keystone (in absentia) for his aid in the kitchen, teaching and loaning armor (scroll by Magnus Tindal and Etain ingen Dalaig). The second finalist for AEthelmearc bard was Lady Gwenhwyvar Morwyn who recited an original poem on the theme of "love far away". Lady Mariana Pietrosanti was created a member of the Order of the Keystone for her service as archer, cook and tollner (scroll by Mairghread ui Stilbhard uu Coinn). The third finalist in the Bardic Champion competition, Baron Fridrikr Tomasson av Knusslig Hamn told a Norse tale on the theme of "archery on battle". Lady Eadaoin ingen Chanacain was given the Order of the Keystone (in absentia) for service to the archery community, Arts and Sciences and work as an autocrat. Their Majesties invited before Them THLady George Ann. As her herald, Lord Malcolm fitz William, recited her accomplishment, her banner was brought forth and her entourage showered the populace with sweets, and yet George was not there. At Their Majesties request, Baron Fridrikr exited the hall to retrieve the wayward lady and brought her before the Court, protesting that she had other work to do at that very moment. Their Majesties reminded George of the one task They had set her to that morning. She affirmed that she did receive the council of the Peers and that it was her wish to be elevated to their ranks. The Court heard testimony of her worth and dedication, to AEthelmearc and the Society, from Earl Yngvar the Dismal speaking for the Chivalry, his lady, Countess Caryl Olesdatter, spoke words from Duchess Dorinda Courtenay on behalf of the Ladies of the Rose, Dame Aoife Finn of the Order of the Laurel demonstrated the impact of George's service to one and all, and Baron Fridrikr also heralded her fine qualities, on behalf of the Pelicans. Master Brian of Leichester presented Their Majesties with the ancestral Pelican medallion and also one that had been handed down among the Kingdom Archivists to be bestowed upon George. Her husband, Lord Jakys the Cheesemonger, presented her a cloak made by the hand of Lady Deirdre the Hidden. George swore her oath upon the Sword of State to continue serving as she had done. Their Majesties, well pleased by these words, bid her rise and greet her companions as Dame George, Mistress of the Pelican. Their Majesties requested farewell performances of the outgoing Bardic Champions Lady Dearbhforgaill an Chomhaidh and Lord Gavin. The three finalists were invited once again before the Court and Their Majesties announced that Their Sylvan Bard would be Baron Fridrikr. Their Majesties thanked one and all for attending the event and participating in the various challenges. Her Majesty was particularly delighted by the presence of Her cousins from Her once and former home of Concordia of the Snows. Court was closed.

The liability would exist in either an instance where food poisoning occurred, or where someone collapsed from dehydration. Now, let us take a different look... someone visits you and you give them a drink of tap water, and they get sick, what is the deal there? Are you liable for them getting sick, assuming clean facilities, glasses, and such? How about at a water fountain in a building? Or the pitcher of water put out on a table at a business conference? As I personally look at it, take reasonable precautions about keeping things clean, using clean water, and stick with things as they have been. - Cinnion Quoting Taranach McLeod (taranach at gmail.com): > My only problem with this whole scenario is where it is coming from? > If there are questions for something as innocuous as water, what about > something as complex as feast? especially with allergies and > preparation issues?

The legal theory at issue is "negligence." Liability occurs when you have a duty, you fail to live up to the ordinary standard of care for that duty, and that failure was the proximate cause of the plaintiff's harm. The difficulty faced by the BOD is that the "ordinary standard of care" for waterbearing may vary from state to state. Complying with 50 sets of detailed regulations is a pain in the ass to say the least. The BOD is _avoiding_ liability by saying that waterbearing is unofficial and private. If it is no longer a corporate activity, the SCA has no duty it can fail to perform, and it cannot be liable for any harm that may occur. Individuals who choose to supply water take the risks upon their own head. Even better, the risks are probably lower for such individuals because they may have a diminished standard of care compared to an organized corporate entity. You specifically asked, "[what if] someone visits you and you give them a drink of tap water, and they get sick, what is the deal there? Are you liable for them getting sick, assuming clean facilities, glasses, and such?" Given those assumptions, what made them sick? Liability occurs when your failure of duty is the proximate cause of the harm. Dirty facilities is a good example of what might get you in trouble. If you didn't fail in your duties (as might be true if the water from the utility was bad), you have no liability. Food poisoning from a feast would follow a similar analysis. Note that the same thing applies to fighting. Marshals have no real liability at practices because they have no duty to police the individual bouts. By contrast, marshals at a tourney CAN be held liable if they fail to live up to the ordinary standard of care. That is why different standards have to apply for the two situations. If marshals were ever declared to be "in charge" of practice bouts, they would instantly become personally liable for failing to actively marshal them at the level required for tourneys. No duty = no chance for liability, but once you have a duty, you have a corresponding chance for liability. Bang, zoom, off to the moon. FWIW, I happen to be up on this because there is a current proposal to adopt the view that safety concerns prevent fighters at a practice from waiving things like the rule against grappling. "All rules apply at all times, including practices, no matter what the fighters might agree to between each other." I am in the process of preparing a document for the Society Marshal and the BOD to argue against this in the loudest possible tone. It's more than just insulting - such a position would effectively cripple the fighting waiver and put every marshal on the figurative hook for any injury that occurs at a practice which might have been prevented by active, Crown-level marshalling. For those with a background, the liability might be reduced under comparative negligence principles but assumption of the risk would not be a valid defense. See generally Bullman v. Giuntoli, 761 A.2d 566 (Pa. Super. 2000), and the Restatement (Second) of Torts at ? 496D. It's an interesting fact that consent would still be a defense for a fighter-on-fighter suit, while the individual marshals, the marshallate chain of command, and the corporate SCA would face ruinous liability if someone suffered a serious injury. You've gotta love institutional insanity. By contrast, the BOD's response to the waterbearing question is completely sane and even kind of elegant. If you can't be sure of doing a thing right, don't assume the duty to do it in the first place. Leave it to volunteers. This is limited to Pennsylvania law, of course. I am not admitted to the bar of any other state and offer no opinions on their laws. It is also a statement of general principles rather than specific analysis of any particular situation. No one has paid for my opinion, and no one may rely on it for anything more than general guidance and education.

And if we do something about the former and not the latter, the SCA is, by taking partial action, just opening itself up to even more liability than existed before the action. The liability would exist in either an instance where food poisoning occurred, or where someone collapsed from dehydration. Now, let us take a different look... How about at a water fountain in a building? Or the pitcher of water put out on a table at a business conference? As I personally look at it, take reasonable precautions about keeping things clean, using clean water, and stick with things as they have been. - Cinnion Quoting Taranach McLeod (taranach at gmail.com): > My only problem with this whole scenario is where it is coming from? > If there are questions for something as innocuous as water, what about > something as complex as feast? especially with allergies and > preparation issues?

I've heard several questions both here in ?thelmearc and on inter-kingdom lists. I hope the information below is informative - please feel free to ask me any other questions you might have. The proposal does not mean waterbearing is forbidden. Just that the SCA, Inc. is not SPONSORING it. Anyone who wishes to volunteer to handle water, bring water, organize water is welcome to do so. You are just not permitted to be the "Official Waterbearer of the Shire of Many Waters." This proposal will not affect awards given for waterbearing; it will not revoke them or address them in any way. It will not stop Crowns from giving awards for service for waterbearing if the Crown so desires. Again, if there are more questions, ask and I will find the answers for you! As was stated in the original proposal - if you have commentary... Comments are strongly encouraged and can be sent to: SCA Inc.

I recently bought a rectangular Marquis tent.? I discussing the concern of rain water flowing down the tent poles, someone suggested that they knew someone who had cut leather disc that fit over the spike of the tent pole, thus covering the open grommet.? It was suggested that when the leather got wet, it would swell and seal the opening even more. Has anyone ever actually used this method?? If so, did it reduce the amount of water you got running down the poles and into your tent?? What kind of leather did you use?? (I at first thought to use veggie tanned leather. I have soaked veggie tan leather to make projects that needed to be shaped and hardened.? The stain left in the water I soaked it in is not something I would want on my new tent.) I have also thought about using finials.? The expense is a concern right now after spending so much on the tent itself.? If you think this is the way for me to go, do you have any ideas where to get them inexpensively and how best to fit them to the top of the spike? Does anyone have any other suggestions for me.? I admit to being a very wimpy camper! Thanks for any ideas you might have for me!

We also have a Panther Marquis. We haven't (as I recall) had a problem with water coming in through the grommets; however, we also did not get the poles, ropes and stakes from Panther, but directly from the 3rd party dealer. As a result, I think the spikes are somewhat thicker (as well as the poles themselves being thicker and sturdier). We have considered getting wooden finials, but that was more for looks. If you go that route, you probably want to put them on the center uprights before the ridgepole is actually raised (I don't know what size your tent is, but ours is a 12' x 16', so the ridgepole height is about 11'). The side walls are only 6', so putting finials on them wouldn't be as big a pain in the butt (although we would probably still put them on before raising the poles). Alastar suggested using cheap blocks of wood with holes drilled in one end for fast and easy finials, but agreed with me that he doesn't remember water ever dripping in that way. One caveat about raising a Marquis -- you want to make sure that the center uprights are both raised at the same angle at the same time, so you don't torque the ridgepole. IIRC, we do that part (with help from campmates -- the custom uprights and ridgepole are 4x4s, so they are very heavy), and then do the perimeter poles. We do the staking after the perimeter poles are straight, then do the walls last. We also don't put down a floor, per se; we put down straw beach mats and inexpensive ($3-4 at Walmart) rag rugs. That way we are putting the mats where we actually need them, and not directly under the rope bed or the folding table. If the mats get trashed by the end of the war, we don't worry too much -- we just toss them (we also put one just outside the doorway, so we can remove muddy shoes if necessary). We've actually had more problem with wicking than with drips (our perimeter pole caps have hooks as well as spikes, so you can hang stuff from them, but we learned our lesson after the first year and don't hang clean garb from them -- it was a very wet Pennsic, and we wound up with everything being damp from water wicking through the canvas walls). Now we use a couple of cheap garment racks (they were $10 from KMart, and have -- amazingly -- lasted through a couple of Pennsics, in spite of heavy garb hanging from them) with plastic and some wire-coated hangers). At some point I will probably replace them with sturdier ones, but it was hard to find ones that were tall enough to handle long dresses (one or two of which have trains). Two other things I would suggest: 1) plastic storage tubs (the latching type work better) to keep things like undies and spare shoes dry 2) some sort of bed, to keep yourself off the ground, especially if you're not in a level spot. At Pennsic we have a rope bed, and put a futon on it over a sheet of plywood; we use blocks of wood under some legs to level it. But we also just bought camp beds ($24.99 last week at KMart) for the semi-SCA camping we're doing 4th of July weekend, since the bed parts are probably at the bottom of Bear's storage trailer at Cooper's, under everyone else's gear and the camp sinks and such.

It was suggested that when the leather got wet, it would swell and seal the opening even more. That might work. Mine came with punched squares of inner tube or some such, that work reasonably well. Your leather gasket goes over the spike outside the canvas and beneath the supporting rope(s). Either way, water running down your poles is not really a problem, provided that your poles are sitting on bare ground, as they should be. Let your floor tarp be *inside* the rectangle formed by your side poles, and the only water you ever have to worry about is from your central poles; and at worst, *that* will probably be a few drops during the worst of storms. >I have also thought about using finials.? The expense is a concern right now after spending so much on the tent itself. I have owned my marquis for quite a few years, now, and I keep meaning to make finials. It keeps not happening. And yet, I camp dry. At this point I consider finials a cosmetic issue rather than a structural one. >Does anyone have any other suggestions for me.? Pavilions are WONDERFUL. Take the money you would have spent on finials, and get a couple area rugs from Ikea to lay on top of your ground tarp. Your bare feet will thank you. Now that you have your pavilion, you will begin to grow in Pennsic decadence. There is shelving to consider: you can buy (I think, from Panther) a collapsible three-shelf support system (you supply the boards for the shelves) that hangs from two of your side poles. If you prefer it in wrought iron, I direct you to Miller's Crossing (generally right by the empty animal shop at the top of Runestone Hill), which also sells a single-shelf version that features hooks for your closet rod. A decently-powerful flashlight duct-taped to one of your central poles, pointed up, makes a handy lighting system. A small collection of wood-scraps and a spirit level are handy to make sure that your bed does not slope. Since you indicate you are a camping novice, consider that at Cooper's Lake in August we have had temperatures from the three-digits, all the way down into the forties. Pack accordingly. Include at least one sweatshirt and a hat you are comfortable sleeping in, along with a pair of gloves. Make sure that you have at least as much covering UNDER you as over you if the night is chill, or you will find yourself covered in a mountain of blankets yet still very confused about why you are so cold. Enjoy! I hope you find this helpful. - Michael From aeisenkopf at comcast.net Sun Jun 22 09:58:19 2008 From: aeisenkopf at comcast.net (aeisenkopf at comcast.net) Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 13:58:19 +0000 Subject: [SCA-AE] A Camping Question from a Camping Novice Message-ID: <062220081358.24846.485E5A7B00003DF90000610E2205884484009F0105020A9C070A0E@comcast.net> baby bottle nipples.

In the marketplace you can get a mirror-box for the table that doubles as a place to keep small items. Concerning food: I recommend focusing on non-perishables. Our food shelf at War includes granola, small containers of fruit in plastic containers, crackers, etc. Bring ziplock bags, in both quart and gallon sizes. Any food container that you open but do not empty (like a box of crackers) goes in a ziplock bag. Not only does it keep the remaining contents from going stale, your food will remain happily ant-free. Ants WILL find exposed food, and they will invite their friends. - Michael From katriona at stny.rr.com Sun Jun 22 10:47:31 2008 From: katriona at stny.rr.com (Kat Sulliivan) Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 10:47:31 -0400 Subject: [SCA-AE] A Camping Question from a Camping Novice References: <062220081358.24846.485E5A7B00003DF90000610E2205884484009F0105020A9C070A0E@comcast.net> Message-ID: <003301c8d476$e6f1e0e0$83c0cf45@meow> Hello! I had one of the large Marquis for 8 Pennsics. I had finials on each of the poles, that worked very well. They weren't anything fancy, just a short piece of dowelled wood, painted to look pretty. The only problem I ever had with water was that it pooled on the corners near the end of war when the canvas had relaxed a bit. Just keep those ropes tightened, especially on the corners! A word of caution about wind however! I had several close calls with huge wind gusts coming in my door when the flap was open and causing the whole pavilion to puff up and allowing the center beam to be freestanding for the duration of the gusts. On one such occasion, one side went in one direction and the other the opposite, snapping the center beam! When my brother Sir Wulfstan returned to camp he called out for duct tape and "fixed" the center beam. He and Lord Patrick (the lost) then devised a method of using rope to "chicken wire" criss cross support on the inside of the pavilion to minimize sway should this happen again. It never did. When Sir Wulfstan made me a new center beam before the next war he also made me two little pedistals for the bottom of each supporting beam to raise them up two inches, insuring that the entire pavilion would be more taut in the future. This probably won't be a problem for you until your pavilion is a very old saggy baggy elephant, however. Mine was 12 years old when this happened! Long Live the Panther! Mine is still in use, as a common shade by my household, and it's 16 years old!

We have discussed using a swimming noodle by cutting slices from it and slipping them over the spike under the rope. A good friend of ours came up with the best portable clothing racks I have ever seen. They are 2 different sizes of electrical conduit that slide into each other. The ends were mashed and holes drilled into them. They are put in opposite corners of the tent diagonally. Each end of the rack is placed on the 1st perimeter pole each side of the corner. The 2 pieces of conduit slide into each other so if there is any tent sway from the wind they move with it. It makes the tent more stable and we have great clothing storage. Actually we use one as clothing storage and hang curtains from the other and have a very nice sized hidden storage area for our more mundane stuff. Because we have slant walls the clothes do not touch the tent walls and there is no wicking from the canvas. I think this can be made to work for a straight walled tent as well.

The statement about making sure your poles sit on bare ground is important because if any rain does run down the poles it will soak right into the ground. My only other suggestion is when you set up the marquis, make sure you stake minimally the four corners of the walls down. It keeps the pavilion stable and you will find it will stand up to the weather much better. Good luck! You will really enjoy camping in a canvas marquis! It is dryer and cooler than any modern tent could ever be.

If you could not make it, you really missed a great event. I want to thank everyone who came, shared their knowledge, attended classes, prepared this beautiful and tasty all day sideboard, the autocrats, the Aecademy Chancilor, well just everyone for a great event. I also want to thank Their Majesties again for supporting the Arts and Sciencres like they do. It is just wonderful. It was my great honor to announce 5 people who have gone above and beyond to help in furthering the Arts and Sciences in this Kingdom and to help make Aecademy what it is today. Those 5 persons are: Her Excellency Mistress Alison of the many Isles. During her tenure as Misister o Arts and Sciences in our glorious Kingdom she rebuilt and restructuured the Aecademy to what it is today Mistress Rhiannon y Bwa served as Aecademy Chancilor and made it a special point to make sure everyone in this Kingdom was included espercially also the folks in West Virginia. Master Valgardr Gunnarson has worked tiredlessly in helping all the groups in West Virginia have Arts and Sciences, has encouraged participation in Ice Dragon, has run the Aecademy Web Page and the Arts and Science Web Page for many years and gives his Lady THL Julianna Delamere the time and the encpuragement to serve our Kingdom as Aecademy Chancilor. THL Solveig Throndardottir, who is the go to person when it comes to questions about Japanese Arts, Food, Names....... Her Excellency Dame Katja Davidova Orlova Khazarina . when you have questions about Turkish things or cooking she is the go to person, who always cheerfully shares her knowledge. I am so honored to have been there when these five gentles were named as Fellows of the Aecademy. If you have any questions or need help. here are 5 gentles who are willing to help you as they have been doing all along! My thank you also goes to my Deputy THL Odrianna vander Brugge and to Master Christofano. Theyy are revamping the A&S Webpages. I encourage ALL Artisans of our Kingdom, regardless of whether or not you have been recognized. to register. Master Christofano is tryng to build a searchable Database of everyone who is doing A&S in this Kingdom! This leads me to questions that only YOU the artisans and people of Aethelmearc can answer: What would you like to see at Aecademies? Should we continnue offer mainly Beginners to Intermediate type classes or should we have Aecademies be the advanced classes? Should we have advanced classes more at subject specific events like for example textlie type classes at FFF event, Bards and Cooks symposiums, Heralds and Scribes, Clothing Symposium etc? Should these events be one day, daytripping events, or should they be weekend events (to get more classes in. to get more "bang for your Buck")? Could and should we ask Autocrats to set aside space in the Hall for spontaneous classes at events? And would artisans be willing to spontaneously teach not in a structured class but kind of like I have done a couple of times at events by bringing knitting needles and sock yarn and just doing some one on one teaching as the interest is there? It would be wonderful if artisans would be willing to bring their drop spindle, plus a few extras and wool, their inkle loom or their card weaving cards plus extras to events. It may be really nice if this could be coordinated with the autocrat ahead of time, but it is not a must. Let me know what you think. And finally one more thought/suggestion: With gas prices having climbed to prices I was used to in Europe, and no end in sight yet, traveling will get more and more exspensive. I can only encourage you all and ask: Please carpool and please consider opening yoiur homes, as we did in Drachenwald, and I am sure here in Aethelmearc as well when we older ones were much younger and not as worried about our creature comforts. Autocrats if it is not too much to ask add a Crash space coordinator to your event staff, if possible so we can keep attending events without going broke. Please let me know what you think and how the Arts and Science Office can best serve YOU!!\ I remain in swervice to Aethelmearc Elisabeth From alaxandair at gmail.com Sun Jun 22 22:02:01 2008 From: alaxandair at gmail.com (Alaxandair O'Conchobhair) Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 22:02:01 -0400 Subject: [SCA-AE] Public Server Down - Corrected Message-ID: The server is backup, and all sites should be available.

You can see a picture of it here: ? http://www.aeheralds.net/badges.html ? You can freely put the Kingdom's populace badge on clothing, banners, pennons, armor, tabards or other personal items to show your pride in your Kingdom. I personally have it, along with the baronial badge, painted on a cart that we use to haul gear at Pennsic. My camp also usually attaches a pennon with the badge to our camp gate, so everyone knows which Kingdom we are from.

Will this go through immediately, and will folks be able to implement that by this war?

We got seconds for most, but their prices are good for "firsts".? You may need to drill out the hole yourself.? The finials will help to divert rain onto the canvas and not down the pin into the tent.? Plus they look good! In general, I agree that water running down the poles has not been a major problem in any of the tents we have made.? We did have a bit of water down one pole one year.? We just made sure that nothing was touching that pole and that it was on the ground directly so it didn't pool in the tent.? As far as wind, when you set up your tent you should put two ropes on each of the ridge pins.? Then make an "X" across the tent with the ropes (hook the ropes to perimeter poles about 3 feet in from the corner of the tent and stake them down).? They don't need to be terribly tight, but will keep your tent from lofting and turning into a big balloon in a sudden gust. Also always stake down your walls.?? For ant control, we have bought "ant crystals" at Home Depot for the past several years and sprinkled them?where our tent will be and around the perimeter.??They are a contact poison and really help control the ants.??

It was suggested that when the leather got wet, it would swell nd seal the opening even more. Has anyone ever actually used this method?? If so, did it reduce the amount of ater you got running down the poles and into your tent?? What kind of leather id you use?? (I at first thought to use veggie tanned leather.

The SCA Inc. seeks applicants for the position of Chief Technical Officer, for a three-year term beginning August 15, 2008. This is a part-time volunteer position requiring technical leadership and a commitment of approximately 10-15 hours per week plus availability for emergencies. The CTO is a direct deputy to the President and Vice President of Operations, and reports indirectly to the Board of Directors by way of an Ombudsman. The Chief Technical Officer (CTO) leads a team of volunteers who maintain and manage the SCA's Internet servers for web, email, and related infrastructure services. The CTO team manages the SCA's Internet domains, SSL certificates, and the technical aspects of e- commerce clearinghouse services, and similar aspects of the corporation's online identity. The SCA.org Webmaster reports to the CTO, as do several special project deputies. The CTO may also lead and direct external paid contractors for specific business critical projects or administrative duties. This position requires specific project management, interpersonal and technical skills, including the following: * Ability to communicate clearly and effectively in writing, including documents and announcements that will be released for public perusal. This position also requires four detailed quarterly reports plus to the Society Seneschal and the Board, plus an annual (Domesday) report. * Ability to interact constructively with non-technical clients who use the SCA's online services, including Society officers, Board members, and the SCA's corporate office team. * Ability to lead a team of technical volunteers and/or paid contractors to support and enhance the SCA's Internet capabilities. * Ability to interact with the Society Chronicler, Society Web Minister, and other corporate level officers to advise on policy issues related to information technology. * Familiarity with the software components and technologies used on the SCA servers. The main components include a variety of technologies with Linux, Apache, GNU and PHP among them. * Ability to maintain strict confidentiality of highly sensitive information. Qualified applicants should have a technical college degree and at least ten years of experience in project management and information technology, or equivalent. Reliable high-speed Internet access, including while traveling, is essential, and ownership of a laptop computer is highly desirable. The Chief Technical Officer leads and/or implements strategic projects on a largely self-directed basis or as requested by Society officers or the Board. He or she also will direct a technical team that corrects problems on the SCA servers, sometimes on an emergency basis. The CTO team receives multiple daily reports from the servers, including status of important software systems, e-commerce summaries, and security bulletins. These reports need to be monitored on a daily or near-daily basis. The time commitment of the CTO position is approximately ten hours per week normally, but can be considerably larger in the event of problems or major strategic project work. The term of office is normally three years. The job of Chief Technical Officer is a considerable work commitment, but also a very unique challenge seldom found in the corporate world, with a great deal of latitude for leading technical and strategic creative initiatives. Interested applicants should send a letter of interest, together with modern and SCA qualifications, hardcopy to Renee Signorotti, Society for Creative Anachronism, P.O. Box 360789, Milpitas, CA 95036-0789, with courtesy copies to resumes at sca.org, president at sca.org and cto at sca.org.

Partly cloudy, with a few scattered thunderstorms possible during the weekend. We have several merchants joining us for the event, including a 'psychic' reader. Also, there is an SCA garage sale to raise travel funds for our Silver Buccle Herald and a raffle to benefit AEthelmearc scribes. Other guests of the campground are coincidentally joining together to hold their own 'garage' sale on Saturday. I understand that Thescorre's talented Ravensong group are planning to perform sometime Saturday around the time of Court/Feast. There will surely be drumming in the evening, perhaps dancing and other entertainments as participants will, both Friday & Saturday evenings.

On a side note, this is one of the reasons the public server was started in 2001. An outage or issue on the public server does not effect the Kingdom .ORG server. Kingdom is maintained on a seperate server and used specifically for Kingdom, where as the public server is open to anyone in AEthelmearc that needs ad free web hosting. The public server currently provides hosting for groups in AEthelmearc, that is the *equivalent* to hosting 8 kingdom type sites, and has over 14 sub domains.

Noon Court. Their Majesties called Their Order of the Laurel and asked if it was still their wish to council the candidate sent to them at Myrkfaelinn War Practice. They collectively affirmed that it was. Her Ladyship Bridgette Kelly MacLean was invited before the assembly and shortly escorted out to her vigil tent by the Order. Evening Court. Sigard Issolfsson was Awarded Arms for general service to his group and for his work as co-autocrat of this session of the AEcademy. Corbinus de Cuvae was Awarded Arms and given into the Order of the Golden Alce for his impressive skill upon the fencing field. Lady Anastasie de Lamoure was created a member of the Order of the Sycamore for her encouragement of the arts as Arts and Sciences Minister, her leatherwork and contributions of time and talent to the Gold Key (scroll by Marija Kotok). Countess Caryl Olesdatter approached Their Majesties with a request that she be allowed to publicly acknowledge the courtesy and generosity of Matheus hundamathr, a gentle who gave the shirt off his back to one in need at a recent event. Her Excellency returned said shirt, freshly laundered, to Lord Matheus. Cuilean MacCannech was inducted into the Order of the Golden Alce for his deadly proficiency with the rapier (scroll illum by Ismay Ponde, words Morguhn Sheridan). The Kingdom Bardic Champion, Baron Fridrikr Tomasson performed a poetic and true tale of violence for the delight of the Court and to honor Viscount Haakon Oaktall and Duke Morguhn. Their Majesties acknowledged all those who had displayed their art during the day to compete for Kingdom Arts & Sciences Champion, and named Lady Barbary Rose the victor for her Elizabethan Embroidered Gloves entry (scroll by Collete de Paris).

Her Excellency then asked the current Fellows of the AEcademy to stand, three of the five being present, and she did name five new Fellows who had made outstanding contributions to the AEcademy through their work, their teaching, their inspiration and encouragement of others: Baroness Alison of the Many Isles, Mistress Rhiannon y Bwa, Master Valgardr Gunnarsson, THLady Solveig Throndarsdottir and Baroness Katja Davidova Orlova Khazarina (scrolls by Antoinette de la Croix, words by Giullietta da Venezia).

THLady Juliana Delamare and Master Valgardr Gunnarsson were called forth and commended for their outstanding service to the Shire of Misty Highlands, and greeted by their new companions of the Order (her scroll by Gianna de Aurelio). Lord Thorvaaldr Frirsverth was invited to approach Their Majesties, having first divested himself of two knives, it was his art of bladesmithing and metalwork Their Majesties wished to recognize and They did call for Their Order of the Fleur d'AEthelmearc, thus adding him to their ranks and Granting him Arms (scroll by Juliana Delamare). Their Majesties requested Their Order of the Laurel to attend Them, and received affirmation that they had counseled the candidate most thoroughly.

Their Majesties called for the regalia of her new rank and presented her with a suite of brooches by the hand of Lord Pearce Redsmith. After swearing her heartfelt oath upon the Sword of State, Their Majesties presented Mistress Bridgette Kelly MacLean to her new Companions of the most noble Order of the Laurel (vellum scroll callig by Hrefna in heppna, words by Elianora Mathewes, seals by Rhiannon y Bwa and Bedwyr Danwyn). Duchess Rowan de la Garnison, event co-autocrat addressed a few words to the assembly.

Message-ID: Greetings, I have a new person in our Shire who has asked a question that I honestly have no answer for. Up until last week, he was convinced that he wasn't going to be able to go to Pennsic. Now, after considering his vacation time, and his need to acquire "SCA stuff" and the shopping capabilities at Pennsic, he is considering going for War week. The problem is, he didn't make this decision until after the Pre-reg deadline, so he is now in the position of needing to "single camp" at Pennsic. I have never had to single camp (camping outside of any formal group), and he has asked how that works. He has asked me things like "Will they have space for me?", "How do they pick where I'll camp?", etc. and even though I've been to more than 15 Pennsics, I don't have these answers. I've decided to ask this list for their opinions and experiences relating to single camping at Pennsic so that I may better educate myself, and hopeful, answer this newcomer's questions. Thank you in advance for any information or advice you may have.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Not every block has single camping. It depends on how the groups fit. Kind of like doing a jigsaw puzzle. If there is left over room, that can be designated single camping but it is not a guarantee. (Don't expect to single camp in one of the Royal blocks, for example. Any leftover room is still reserved). You can also elect to single camp in a "family" or "non-family" area. Be sure to ask if you have a preference.

If you have discovered (or secretly been made privy to) wonderful sewing tips and techniques, here is your opportunity to share them with the Known World. To get you thinking, here are a couple of questions staff and friends sent in: Can you truly sew leather on a traditional machine without destroying either item? Isn't there a great method for sewing trim flat on round collars? What's a good way to cartridge-pleat a lot of fabric without going grey or mad first?

Their Excellencies invited Baroness Orianna Fridrikskona into Court. Her Excellency announced that through the generosity of the populace, a princely sum of $376 was raised to help THL Matila Bosville de Bella Aqua finance her journey to "The Colonies" for Known World Heraldic Symposium in September. Their Excellencies made a gift of many yards of fine black linen to House Trillium in thanks for the household's many contributions to the Barony. Their Excellencies made a gift of many yards of fine red linen to House Argent Fighting Fish in thanks for the household's wonderful service to the Barony. Their Excellencies announced that in the morning the noble Lady Dubheasa inghen Dubgaill was elevated to the Order of the Brooch. (scorll by THL Collette de Paris) Their Excellencies invited those members of the Order of the Raven's Feather present into court. Their Excellencies invited Lord Richard von Tanner to join the august Order of The Raven's Feather to the great joy of the Order & the populace. (Scroll wording improvised by the Herald) Their Excellencies invited Baroness Alison of the Many Isles into Court. A scroll proclaiming Baroness Alison a Fellow of the Aethelmearc Academy was read into the record. Their Most Excellent Majesties presented the scroll to Baroness Alison. Their Excellencies called the gentles, Sara & Tony, into Court. For their great efforts in hauling many loads of equipment, tentage, & other objects from the parking lot to the field, and for their unfailing courtesy while doing so, these two fine young gentles were gifted with Raven's Eggs. Their Excellencies invited Baroness Peregrine (who was absent), Lord Eldjarn, THL Athos, THL Yasmina, & Baron Steffan into Their presence. Their Excellencies thanked Baroness Peregrine for her service as seneschal, thanked Lord Eldjarn for his willingness to become seneschal & for his service as Deputy seneschal for two years; they also thanked THL Athos, THL Yasmina, & Baron Steffan for their willingness to continue as Thrown Weapons Marshal, Fencing Marshall, & Steward, respectively. THL Athos announced that Master Charles of Alden won the day's thrown weapons competition. Their Excellencies called forth the populace of Thescorre & distributed fine leather medallion holders as Their tokens for Pennsic this year. It should be noted that earlier in the day, on the field, Their Excellencies distributed baldrics to those gentles who will fight for the Barony at Pennsic, and that our allies of Hartstone offered to fly one such baldric on their banner pole as a token of the alliance. It should be further noted that at the feast in the evening, Baron Cedric announced that Lady Elionora Ghorm won the archery competition for the day. Here endeth the report.
