IKA (Inter-Kingdom Anthropology) alert:  Not all kingdoms have a
fixed text for a knighting ceremony.  The East Kingdom, for
example, has minimum requirements for what needs to be on the
scroll, but after that the scribes are given some leeway for the
remainder of the text.

Subject: [scribes]: REAL VIRUS ALERT!!!!!!

Today I received the W32/Bugbear@MM virus in an email.

I found the email to be suspicious and so didn't open the attachment.
The attachment said it was an A&S report, the subject was something
like "not scrimshaw."

I tried to warn the originating email, but it bounced.

Watch out folks!

Subject: [scribes]: iron gall ink

The chemistry of iron gallotannic solutions (ink) is obscure,
esoteric and subtle. Check out:
http://www.knaw.nl/ecpa/ink/index.html
This is a conservation science site dedicated to the stability
and corrosion issues involving iron gallotannic inks.  There
is a detailed discussion on the chemistry, plus some ink recipes,
a nice history of gallic ink page, and some interesting advice
on getting good color out of your ink (atmospheric oxidation,
fermentation, etc)

hullo all sorry to do this.

I had bugbear on my system and I have no idea if it's been sent out 
to here. It's gone now. How ever it may have spread from here.
This thing is nasty. I scan all incoming and out going emails  and I 
do not open strange emails so I don't know where this came from.
if you are infected go here.

This virus is really nasty, it creates a back door on your system 
and is capable of copying secure data ( credit cards numbers and 
so on.

I urge everyone to run a virus check with the latest updates.

It would seem that someone in the SCA has been infected with it, as both
times it has come through to me (and quarantined by my Norton) it was
with an SCA type of subject.  So, folks be very aware of what you are
opening.  I, too, have the most current form of Norton that scans as
e-mails come in and checks to make sure I'm not sending anything out, as
well.  Anyone who doesn't have the most current form of Antivirus
software is endangering all of us, as well as their own computer.  I
know this is off topic, but we all need to be VERY aware of this type of
thing or we won't have a list to enjoy.

Greetings--

For any folks that happen to be in Ohio, I'm going to be hosting an open
scriptorium at Red Dragon next weekend in Tirnewydd.  I'm hoping to both
entice new scribes and be able to enjoy scribing with likeminded folks
without the pressure of a court hanging over our heads. Bring your stuff and
let's play!

Oak galls can be found on the trunk of the tree, on the ends of the 
branches or on the leaves themselves.  They are more frequently seen in the 
latter portion of the year, August through December (when you can still 
find leaves on trees in December in the oak's range).

Pittsburgh does have the right insects and trees for oak galls, I've picked 
them out of trees near Pennsic and Philly so I'm pretty sure that 
Pittsburgh would have them too.

They come in many sizes and are placed in many different areas of the 
tree.  Here are some pictoral examples:

http://www.ipm.uiuc.edu/publications/infosheets/71-plantgalls/galls9big.jpg

The last picture is what I see more of, the other two pictures are more 
easily spotted.

Hope this helps.

Smiles,
Despina
