LATIN - CUR NON?
A sketchy understanding of the language is not good enough. "Take the sentence urinibor piscinam: if you are guessing, you might think it means 'I will urinate in the swimming pool' but it doesn't. It means 'I will dive into the swimming pool'.

SAM ADAMS BEER QUOTE
“Let no man thirst for good beer.”
Interestingly, despite common belief that Sam Adams was a brewer, he was not. He was a partner in the family malthouse, which made malt for the brewing process. So technically he was Sam Adams, maltster.

DUNGEON, FIRE, AND SWORD
Subtitled: The Knights Templar In the Crusades: by John J Robinson:
“The Templar was never to allow another person to see his naked body…the Templar was never to bathe his body. Although it may not have been intentional, the rule never to remove his sheepskin drawers and not to bathe for years on end in a blistering hot climate may have helped the Templar knight to adhere to his vow of chastity.”
(During the Albigensian Crusade)”One woman was arrested (as a heretic) because she was known to bathe every Saturday, a habit not in keeping with Christian custom.”

CHEESE ANYONE?
Norway goat cheese fire closes tunnel
A road tunnel in Norway has been closed -

known as Brunost - caught light as it was being driven
through the Brattli Tunnel at Tysfjord, northern Norway,
last week.
The fire raged for five days and smouldering toxic gases
were slowing the recovery operation, officials said.
