Game of Thrones Actors Self-Submitted for Emmy Awards

The final season of the HBO hit Game of Thrones was very controversial but it has still received numerous nominations for the Emmy Awards including special effects, direction, cinematography, and leading acting awards for Kit Harrington and Emilia Clarke.

However, some actors had to do their own legwork and submitted themselves to the Emmys. That paid off and they got nominated for their supporting roles.

Most notably, Gwendoline Christie (Brienne of Tarth) and Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) both self-submitted and are now nominated for the supporting categories award. Carice van Houten, who played Melisandre, also self-submitted and has been nominated in the guest actress category.

Reminds me much of the "computing center" at my alma mater:
http://www.rpi.edu/about/campustour/vcc/index.html

It had formerly been a large stone chapel when that part of the campus was part of an adjacent seminary. It always struck me a bit ironic that the geeks at a technical school now "pay worship" to the computer housed therein.

Mare Nostrum is indeed "our sea", and it was the name given to the Mediterranean sea during the roman and bizantine periods. Therefore, it was considered appropriate for a supercomputer in a city on the Mediterranean coast.
