FLavius Valerius Constantinus

One point that should be mentioned about the long term effects of the Battle of Adrianople, is that it seriously raised the morale of the barbarians and put a permanent dent in Roman invincibility. I don't think the morale made a difference because the Goths were still in a desperate situation where they couldn't survive, which is why they agreed to be assimilated into the Roman army.(that is until Alaric)

Well the thing is...most states now make 18 to be the elgibility age. Because in Illinois where I'm from, they made it that those born in 1991 and plus now can only get their license at 18. Luckily I was born in 90. And until recently, they changed the required hours to 50 from 25, thats right after the day I got my license.

Congratulations...by the way, did your license picture made you look pyschotic like ME. Darn... you made think... HE almost had you...

I know how form it, but right now, you're in Latin one which means you are nowhere near the gerundives...so don't bother trying now because you have't learned the other necessaries yet.

Although the Roman Empire was declining, was societal structure still firmly intact and were there still technological advances (if at all) ?

I have, the thing is, I didn't give much a care about the whole movie because of one thing. Sienna Guilleroy was so "hot." I mean really, knowing about the whole myth, I think I was seduced by the 'actor.'

I know this is way offtopic even in the off topic forum, but this was too important... After the Muhummad pics...mass rallies... Nigeria's sectarian war was made even fierce. Ninety-three people dead already in two/three days. BUT...in Iraq...now the bastards have gone and done..."Blow up the Golden Mosques' Dome." A few hours later, mass rally and the signs of civil war are brewing. Also in a few hours, militias/death squads everywhere started to burn mosques, kill clerics, kill foreign prisoners/terrorists... absolutely out of control... So the question is, do you think this will die down or is it the last straw?

Not sure if any of these would fall into category, but they seem interesting: sorbitiuncula - small draught/does; posset; portion of food (pretty awkward uses of meanings) caleo, calere, calui, ______ - be kept warm; be hot with passion... sugrundarium - baby grave cunaria - female babysitter( attendant for infants) cunarius - male babysitter( attendant for infants) argentum vivum - quicksilver/mercury prino - holm oak; great scarlet oak; everygreen oak chelium - shell of a horned tortoise pero - thick boot of raw hide there is alot more, but then I'm not too sure some of these even mean what they are.

Somehow I already knew this a long time ago through documentaries on the history channel and discovery channel.

Greatest- Einstein Greatest Classical mind- Aristotle Most Greatest/Deranged/Influential- Hitler ( you can't help but deny it...)

They would have lost even with gunpowder and guns. You need to give them more than that if you aim to change the outcome. Talking about history, it was the outbreaks and spread of disease by Europeans that killed the Natives. So yes, gun powder did not matter at all. I wonder why the natives immune system were so weak.

My...I've never heard of the dental hygience jest until now...I don't think we use it to joke anymore in my generation.

Oh....I get it. Did his son Titus have the same kind of humor?

Sorry, I don't get it. Does he mean when Vespasian is dead or something?

More specifically, a competent imperator who commanded respect from the senate and had total control of the legions.

I totally understand what you're saying, but I'm just stating it as a warning that others might not take the statement the right way...

If you're gonna do that, then I'm gonna have to go back and kill you... Not even kidding, this topic might get out of hand...

That site can go to hell... Anyways David Irving can make a good target to anyone, but do those people actually want him to suffer physically? What happened to the European 'we love peace and freedom of speec' secularism stuff.

I find this all so "totally" dumb. I know its moronic to deny the Holocaust and all, but jail someone for voicing out their opinions for 3 years is absolutely detestable and stupid as it can get... totally totally...ugh I can't express how....

Eee...a report just came out that the police found more than a hundred syringes and anti-asthmatic medication...which points out doping. So who is to blame here?

Did you hear about the Italian police breaking into the Austrian Olympic site, something about illegal drugs.

So today was just another day with a few changes in the regular routine. So anyways, I came to school, had Geometry first period, pretty damn easy I must say when you are doing radical problems... Second period, speech, damn teacher gave us a third project to do altogether within one week . Third period, Literature, my that research paper makes me wanna committ suicide(in a peaceful manner of course) . Fourth period, had lunch, school food is horrible I must say. I usually sit around my friends and sometimes with the 'popular' sophomore kids when I have nowhere else to sit. All we do is joke all day...sad but that's really what all we do, find humor in life. \ Fifth period, had Latin class and we're learning the Gerundive now, its suppose to be hard but it ain't bad, but saying the Passive Perphrastic Participle messes me up all the time, which is why it is called the Gerundive of Obligation by my teacher. Halfway through class, fire alarm goes on. Everyone walks out, but its 'freaking 21 DEGREES.' So we're standing around...blah blah this and that. Turns out the kitchen in the Cafeteria had a fire... But then 6th period lunch wasn't able to be held...haha I felt bad for the kids randomly sitting in the hallway and those who couldn't eat lunch...luckily I was in design class. Now I must say, drawing a 'perfect Euclideian Pentagon is extremely complicated.' I would just like someone try to say its easy when they don't have a protracter, but only a compass, pencil, and ruler. Seventh period I have Gym, the easiest and funnest class ever. Now of all the periods, 7th Gym is considered the worse ever and my class is definitely the worse ever since all of us are bunch of A-holes who mess around too much. So we're doing Floor Hockey, pretty fun. But the problem is , today, I got the 'face treatment.' Now here's what I mean. I'm on offense and our center who is about to shoot the ball with the stick for a goal...only thing he did was elevate the damn thing too high that me and this other guy were standing there...next thing I know is BAM...I got hit in the face/jawline area. So I'm like "TIME OUT COACH, THINK I JUST GOT HIT IN THE FACE sarcastically of course. Fifteen seconds later after stading around...yup I fine...game on... Eighth period we had a Chemistry test... now the day before this kid I know stole the test...next day it spreads around the class...yet know one was able to work out the damn problems...it was just that hard. Ironic isn't. So there ya go, just another day in the life of ME/Flavius.

I wouldn't say baseball is dying. Baseball is going great here in Chicago! Although I suppose having two teams and one of them just won the World series kinda change things. By the way, I'm a northsider, so Go CUBs!
