I'll tune in in spirit from Bloomington, IN, which isn't far from Frankfurt...but if I stepped foot in That State with Indiana University gear on, Calipari's resulting anguished howl might force me to leave.

Given the number of options, this could be an opportunity for an interesting demonstration of preference voting. Very true! I still personally think that if we go with Lorentzio or Garibaldi, we should feminize the names to Lorentzia or Garibaldia, as most Romance languages do with placenames.

I've had a running obsession with Franz Ferdinand this week for some reason.

If we Talossify the name Garibaldi we don't need to take its literal meaning and change it to Talossan roots. The word already originates in a romance language, we could just easily respell it as it fits Talossan phonology and phonetics.
It'd still look like Garibaldi, just changed slightly.
I personally also think we should change it into the name of a country even if we don't want to Talossify the phonetics, and make it Garibaldia or something like that.
America isn't named Amerigo even though the guy that discovered it was named that- they made it feminine to change it into a land.
Just an idea.

There's a decent amount of Italian placenames and stuff that have Germanic roots thanks to the various Gothic tribes and the Vandals and whatnot, who ravaged the late Roman Empire.

I'm up for a Cjar something. I think it's time to break with the fake Italian 'culture.' Looks like it will be an exciting vote.

Where are we on this? What are the current thoughts and plans of action?

I've noticed in the College of Arms' Dean's List that I'm assigned to help you out as the Fulbright Fellow.
Right now, your arms violate several different heraldic rules as well as our "complexity rule." What elements and colors do you really really really want on your arms?

Okay, I see that in the Dean's List I've been assigned to help you out as the Fulbright Fellow.
So let's get this show on the road.
I actually quite like the cross, even though someone early mentioned that it was "too crossy." Do you still want to use it, or do you want to use a different style? Let's try to work out what charges you want to incorporate before focusing on the field of the escutcheon (shield).

Fear not, all. The CÚG is working on something called a "Reunison Arestada" which would take a giant step toward officially acknowledging "both" Classic and Modern Orthography by letting a single set of rules define Talossan writing. Hool Oo! This is exciting!

Hey, sorry about not getting in on the vote. I didn't have consistent internet access the past few days because I was travelling around in Switzerland and Italy. I'm back in the States now, though, so I'll be more in touch.

Palestrina is great. I'm a big fan of old church music haha
I tend to go more of a Gregorian chant route, though.
I was very giddy last year when I discovered Mozarabic Chant- a mix of Gregorian chant and Arabic singing that was performed in arabicized Christian communities in Moorish Spain.
