	Coalition Ships
		A major innovation first introduced with the Arrow fighter was the Integrated Logic system: rather than dedicate precious design space to the inclusion of an astromech perch, the development team simply used a standard R2 unit's logic and processing components for the ship's on-board computer.
		Most of the extra workload that had been handled by the remainder of the freighter's three-man crew are dealt with now by an astromech droid, which is connected not through a "perch" as in the Union X-Wing or Y-Wing, but via a small, R2-sized co-pilot's chamber within the middle quarter of the ship, itself.
		An astromech perch is situated directly behind the cockpit--much like the Incom X-Wing, the Piranha requires an astromech droid to operate.

		The tables of Imperial troy mass and apothecaries' mass are the same as the corresponding United States tables, except for the British spelling "drachm" in the table of apothecaries' mass.
		In the apothecary system of liquid measure the British add a unit, the fluid scruple, equal to one third of a fluid drachm (spelled dram in the United States) between their minim and their fluid drachm.
		In all the systems, the fundamental unit is the (16 ounces) pound, and all other units are defined as fractions or multiples of it.

	PIO IX - MASTAI FERRETTI
		Anche Giuseppe Mazzini non rimase immune a quell'entusiasmo: nel 1847 scrisse al Papa una famosa lettera per esortarlo a prendere la guida del movimento per l'unità e l'indipendenza d'Italia.
		Tuttavia, anche dopo il fallimento della prima guerra d'indipendenza, cui prese parte come comandante dei volontari pisani, egli volle salvare ugualmente quello scoppio di fervore papale perché nel nome di Pio IX si creò un primo embrione di coscienza nazionale.
		"Il mio gesto, ha affermato, vuol essere una risposta allo scempio che dal palcoscenico del Meeting di Rimini si vuol far cadere sul nostro Risorgimento e su quanti si sono battuti per l'unità d'Italia, primi fra tutti Giuseppe Mazzini, Giuseppe Garibaldi e Camillo Benso di Cavour".
