A big of a grab bag this week as I'm changing my RSS reader from Google Reader to R|mail, which better suits my workflow; I'm sure I've missed some items (which I'll catch up with next time):

N.S. Gill tells us about Thomas Bullfinch ... ponders What Did Cleopatra Look Like? ... she has a nice Caesar Study Guide ... Some People in the Life of Cleopatra ... and a list of historical fiction based on Caesar and Cleopatra ...

Adrian Murdoch does some sightseeing with Google maps ... then shows us some more of Hadrian's Wall on Google Maps ...

David Derrick writes about Roman Law and Sharia Law ...

Irene Hahn tells us a bit about Claudian ...

At Campus Mawrtius, Eric writes about Symbolic Restitution ... has Aesop deconstructing himself (ouch) ... and more postmodern Aesopica ...Dennis tells us of a silly miniseries in development (did we mention this one?) ...

New Journals:

New Voices in Classical Reception Studies 2 (2007) (online)

Mnemosyne vol. 60 no. 2 (April 2007)

I'm still pondering this article on How Roman Farmers Left Their Mark on Nature ...
