    wondering if the Iceni survived at all? i read the one Boudicca story, but no mention afterwards.

    Since they were in east Anglia, which was where soem of the earliest Angle (hence Anglia, and indeed English) settlements were probably not as such, though it's unlikely all of the people would have been exterminated.

    it would be interesting to see the family tree of Her Majesty.
    somehow Britain lost all their royal heirs, so they brought in monarchs from Germany?

    The Hanoverians were in the line of descent, just not the most immediate (the problem was finding someone who was a) not Catholic and b) would accept limits to his powers).


    so, i should google Hanoverians family tree, interested to see how far back it traces.

    It is easy to trace back to Queen Victoria, https://www.royal.gov.uk/pdf/Windsor family tree.pdf

    WHat yoou would need to do then is see if there is a similar doc for Queen Vic.

    BTW that link doesn't work right, you need to copy it and then paste it into your search bar

    No more than the more modern system of compulsory conscription. In many countries it is still compulsory for all of a certain age to serve a term in the army.

    What pressed soldier means that the men were impressed into the army, sometimes with extreme reluctance on the part of the pressed man. Impressment was a long standing authority from the state for the recruitment to military service, either on land or on sea.

    Was more commonly used to get men into the Navy, and the press gangs of the 17th century were notorious for the way they sometimes impressed men.

    They weren't slaves, they just may not have really wanted to serve in the army (or navy). :coolsmirk:

    Toddler sizes, yes. Growing up does not have a baby size/shape. I'm off to bed. Bye

    Judging by the ages in those thumbnails, the answer is actually no! A toddler is between 1 and 3 years old. The word toddler is taken from the word toddle, which is a word that describes the way the child begins to walk, unsteady and teetering back and forth, rather than the normal stride of older children and adults (except perhaps for drunken adults :smirk: ).

    Dana


    With the Genesis version of Growing up, you can dial in some of the Basic Child morph to make the character younger than 5. Dial it all the way and you get something close to baby proportions.

    Nice render, fyredrygyon...but I hope he keeps a lock on those swords!

    Thanks for the info. I wonder why you can do that with the Genesis 1 version and not the Genesis 2 version. And why we should keep buying things over and over. I'll be sticking to the first Genesis because at least I have the head and body morphs. I can't afford to keep buying these things every time they feel the need to make it all over again. I don't even get to use the stuff that often, really.

    I picked up Growing Up for Gen 2 and immediately wanted to make Sam a kid, so here's Samuel, age 5, watching Saturday morning cartoons with Grandpa Jiro looking on in amusement.

    Not real happy with textures, a lotta work to do over tho

    Nice, though. There does seem to be a whole lot of repetition on that street texture.

    other than the one Sumeria story, hard to tell when human decency was invented. or they didn't record acts of human decency for posterity.

    Typically, I go with darks and stouts during the height of Summer, and go for mostly pales in the Fall and Winter as the lighter brews don't load me down when I'm out in the cold. Right now at home I have a nice mix of dark amber ales and lighter lagers, good for evening sipping. :)

    It's hard to find a good variety of beers here in Tulsa.. :long:

    re-evaluating fonts and trim sizes.

    do those kindle readers let you change the font to whatever you want?

    some fonts look better in print, then on a screen.
    forum font, i blurs into n, in my vision. i blurs into everything.


    i lost my pccn login. it's been over 9 years. do those library numbers matter anymore?

    Is fish oil Omega 3?

    Yes, it has Omega 3. But Krill oil has more, if you buy the right ones.

    Have not started the new medicine change yet. It is just adding Ritalin at one pm.

    I did not tell the doctor about the music. Actually it is not that serious. I did not hear the music until I turned on my computer. Also the music did not follow me into the kitchen when I ate my dinner. I used to be asked if I hear things or see things but not really any more. No one is in my room right now other than the fish so no one to ask if they can hear the music either. Stephane won't confirm or deny that he hears music.

    All day, I wanted to give little Sam an bright, lime green plastic sword. I got home and started to make up his plastic sword and decided, 'Nah, lets make the sword blue"

    Also, I might be a little tired, as I grabbed my steak knife to hold down the steak and my fork to cut said steak >.> <.<</p>
