This Finnish guy has been teaching himself Sumerian, and sent a cuneiform tablet to the British Museum to check his progress.
They just emailed him that they've sent him something in the post.

Billy Bragg is right.
Over and over again, millions of us cast a vote knowing it will likely count for nothing.
It's no wonder so many people are angry, frustrated and disillusioned. No wonder many are losing hope and giving up on voting.
PR is a way to give everyone a fair vote and a fair voice.

A glimpse of a fragment of a medieval music manuscript, recycled in a 16th century binding, it's vellum lending strength as a guard. It's only a few notes, but someone might recognise it?

Paul Geslin left a lovely detailed inscription on this 1599 Heidelberg Bible. He gives us his motto 'With trembling and joy', and tells us he bought the book in December 1618 for 18 lt (I think!). We're not sure about the bookseller if anyone has any ideas?
