Ghost Stories (The Lawrence Arms album)
Ghost Stories is a punk rock album by the Chicago, Illinois band The Lawrence Arms, released in 2000 by Asian Man Records. It was the band's second full-length album. With this release the band moved away from the political nature of some of their previous songs in favor of more introspective lyrics. Also, while singer/bassist Brendan Kelly had handled the majority of lead vocals on their previous album "A Guided Tour of Chicago", on this album he and singer/guitarist Chris McCaughan split vocal duties almost equally. This singing style would continue throughout their next several albums, and eventually the two would begin to share lead vocals in an almost duet style on Oh Calcutta! It also features the only Lawrence Arms song written and sung by drummer Neil Hennessy, "106 South". The album was recorded at Scientific Studios in December of 1999 by Mike Giampa. All of the drums were triggered, and the bass was recorded through a SansAmp. Accompanied by a heavily distorted guitar, this resulted in a very raw sounding album. It's loved by hardcore fans for its dark tones and lyrical themes. Brendan Kelly has stated that this is his second least favorite Lawrence Arms album, but called the cover his favorite. The album was released on vinyl for the first time in 2009 on Asian Man Records, with all new artwork.

Marcus Sedatius Severianus
Marcus Sedatius Severianus (Latin: "Marcus Sedatius C. f. Severianus Iulius Acer Metillius Nepos Rufinus Ti. Rutilianus Censor"; Ancient Greek: "Μ. Σηδάτιος Σεουηριανὸς"; ca. 105-161/162) was a senator, consul, and Roman general during the 2nd-century AD, originally from Gaul. Sedatius was a provincial governor and later a provincial consul. His career led up to consul "suffect" in 153. However brilliant, his career did not progress quickly through the "cursus honorum". He had to earn his way from patrician to the more prestigious senatorial order. It is distinguished through his link with the oracle of Glycon (Alexander of Abonoteichus) while its end shows the military difficulties of the Empire during the reign of Marcus Aurelius. He was governor of Cappadocia at the start of the Roman war with Parthia during which he was convinced by the untrustworthy oracle to invade Armenia in 161, although Parthia had been making trouble in Armenia since the death of the emperor Antoninus Pius (died 7 March 161). Sedatius committed suicide while under siege in the Armenian city of Elegeia, on the upper Euphrates. He was replaced as governor of Cappadocia by Marcus Statius Priscus.

Operation Veritable
Operation "Veritable" (also known as the Battle of the Reichswald) was the northern part of an Allied pincer movement that took place between 8 February and 11 March 1945 during the final stages of the Second World War. The operation was conducted by Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery's Anglo-Canadian 21st Army Group, primarily consisting of the First Canadian Army under Lieutenant-General Harry Crerar and the British XXX Corps under Lieutenant-General Brian Horrocks. The U.S. Ninth Army was incorporated into the 21st Army Group. The objective of the operation was to clear German forces from the area between the Rhine and Maas rivers, east of the German/Dutch frontier, in the Rhineland. It was part of General Dwight D. Eisenhower's "broad front" strategy to occupy the entire west bank of the Rhine before its crossing. "Veritable" (originally called "Valediction") had been planned for execution in early January, 1945 when the ground had been frozen and thus more advantageous to the Allies. The Allied expectation was that the northern end of the Siegfried Line was less well defended than elsewhere and an outflanking movement around the line was possible and would allow an early assault against the industrial Ruhr region.

The band's earlier albums had been characterized by loud guitars, but later albums saw the band progress to a softer sound, incorporating keyboards.
