quantum computing? Set up to escape nature. Started with a glass floor - declared time passive - then found they should recreate natures guile albeit clumsily to propagate wave function as a leaf already does in photosynthesis at almost 100% efficiency with no cooling. #quantum

Villa De Prisco: A roman water heating system found intact in a villa buried by the Vesuvian eruption 79AD. Cast bronze valves, soldered to pipes, standard checked for safety. Pure Luxury! As a kid we had no running hotwater until 1964!

There is something very much lacking in this BBC News report. The tone of voice and curt words about Rebecca Cheptegei's murder are without a shred of empathy or preserve of dignity about her warmth, talent or the gifted athlete she became.

A unique title discovered at Pompeii - Praefectus Autrygonum, helps build understanding of Roman administration during the transition from Republic to Principate in the reign of Augustus. Military Duumvir, Numerius Agrestinus, is a known figure.

Here’s an idea. Instead of national service, which is obviously idiotic, how about kids working on farms.
Returning to life . . . Slowly the red swept figure bursts into sun shine - blinking in the light after 2 millenia the goddess awakens. Pompeii - new fresco discoveries.

Curious holes in kerb blocks at Pompeii fascinated me until I noticed these blocks unloaded at Mgarr Quay.

What an achievement!
Saddened at the passing of Ray Stevenson - an amazing actor who as Titus Pullo made HBOs ROME a true marvel. ‘Thirteen!!!’ #HBORome #RayStevenson #Vikings #RRR – at Malta
Long live the King! A historic occasion and an incredible ceremony - with a hint of mystery and medievalism - what an amazing day.
In this horse racing scene from the frigidarium bath at Pompeii, it appears the Roman artist had a clearer anatomical expression of galloping horses than we did, until Edward Muybridge's sequence in June 1878.
