AE Magazine - Issue 15

Everyone who works on this should be applauded for their work. To think that everybody is simply volunteering time for nothing else but pure enthusiasm.

After I went over this months issue, I went skimmed through some of the old stuff and I have to say: this has become quite the staff; one that I am proud to be among.

Jagatai, you can write no matter how well, we have proficient people doing the proof reading.

Well, good that no one bashed us about doing nothing for June. I'd also like that this be Global Announcement and the old one removed from it.

EDIT: What I managed was taking the old one down and making this an Announcement for this forum.

Good issue. Congrats to everyone, and to Constantine XI on your Constantine V article

For some reason when I use IE everything is perfectly aligned but when I use firefox they are not.

Yes, I'm also on FF and it's a little out of place.

Right good these -- I've been rather busy of late, no chance to work on my articles, but I have one half written and I'll try to finish it up before the next edition.

Just one note, on "This Month in History" -- I guess "Johan Hus" is how you might say it in German, but historically we would call him Jan Hus -- calling it the "Johan Hus Riot" is a bit imprecise when we can say the "First Defenestration of Prague" (defenestration -- thrown out a window -- see also the beginnings of the 30 Years War and Jan Masaryk) -- also, written "capital of Bohemia (today's CSR)" -- the modern day country is called the Czech Republic, not the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. And this sentence - "It was the beginning of the Hussite wars, whose history is told in an excellent article on AE�s main section." why thank you very much.

One more thing, English note rather than Historical. "the motions of the enraged people of Prague finally swapped over" looks to me like you mixed an idiom. "the emotions of the enraged people of Prague finally boiled over" fits better.

Sorry for the pedantry
