Ides of March

Several generations later, in a remote outpost of the Roman Empire, the barbarism of the Romans was on full display again, first in the Crucifixion, Death and ...

Longinus’s disillusionment with the vice and corruption of his own system, especially the leaders of the Roman Empire, led him to seek goodness and truth elsewhere. The traditional story of his death is poetically similar to the story of his own conversion. He finally concludes: “then I knew that He who hung there dying on the Cross could be none other than the Son of God.” Here we see that Longinus was immediately repulsed by the horrible injustice at play in the execution of Our Lord. The centurion is astonished that Jesus seeks to save even Pilate. As drops of Longinus’s blood pierced the governor’s eyes, he was healed of his blindness, just as the Precious Blood had healed the centurion. Longinus would go on to live as a Christian for the remainder of his days, facing his own martyrdom not long after. After their conversion, Longinus and his companions studied directly under the Apostles, and travelled to Caesarea, Cappadocia (in modern-day Turkey) to preach the gospel. Longinus is a patron of converts, and his intercession is asked to gain a conversion, especially dramatic conversions. It is then that another Roman government official—this time a centurion—would meet his death on the 15th of March. Tradition tells us that Longinus was healed of his partial blindness when the flow of Blood and water from Our Lord’s side touched his eyes. Longinus, the soldier who is said to have pierced our Lord’s side with a lance.”

“They said I was great for the community and great for the public relations aspect of the job. The team was in fourth place at the team. I’m coaching the team tonight.” Gutendorf was replaced by Jean Vincent, a former French international forward who played in the 1958 World Cup, who directed the team in Spain. Indeed, survival in the Premier League was our first and only target at the start of the campaign. Needless to say, Libregts was not restated as Leo Beenhakker directed the Netherlands at Italia ’90. Five weeks prior to the kickoff of the 1978 North American Soccer League season, Allison had not signed a player for the expansion Memphis Rogues. Despite having an unbeaten record at 2-0-4, Mario Beretta was sacked as Como coach of the Italian Third Division in October 19997. Three of the losses were to the New York/New Jersey MetroStars, who were in the Eastern Conference. The only time the teams would meet in the playoffs would have been in MLS Cup. “We talked about the expectations this club places on players and how we are going to go forward.” However, City was a point about the relegation zone with 13 matches remaining in this season.

The Roman calendar was made up of different phases of the moon. Unsurprisingly, a lot of backstabbing is involved. Julius Caesar was in fact stabbed to death in 44BC by a group of senators. “Ides” was the date of the full moon and generally marked the middle of the month. Here’s a run down of what it means, where it originates from and how it’s cemented itself in culture. “Kalends” refereed to the first day of the month, whilst “nones” was between the fifth and seventh of every month, depending on when the “ides” was on the calendar.

Either way, Udall was first and Shakespeare a distant second. who had predicted his life would be in danger for the next 30 days. In the tragedy Julius Caesar written by William Shakespeare, and supposedly also in real life, Caesar was warned by a soothsayer to ‘beware the Ides of March.’

The assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 B.C still resonates as a day of infamy. Here's how the plot unfolded.

Popular Roman Emperor, Julius Caesar, rose to the zenith of power and splendour, having transformed Rome from a republic to an empire.

This is why the voters must be wary of them. But all these are lies and residents of Oyo State must be cautious not to fall for lies from Folarin, Adelabu and their spinners. And no, there is nothing to be scared of about the 15th of March; the only date residents of Oyo State must be wary of is the 18th of March, 2023, the date set for the governorship and State House of Assembly election across the country. Therefore, Oyo State voters must beware of their Ides of March. Of a truth, most of them are sheep in wolves’ clothing and it is imperative for the voters to be wary and cautious in trusting such individuals. I am simply saying that the coming days are important to Oyo State people and the decisions to be taken therein would have great implications for the state, its teeming people and their future.

But the Ides of March had a long and complex history before Caesar's death. In ancient Rome, the Ides were used as markers for certain religious observances and ...

The idea of a powerful figure being assassinated by those who seek to overthrow them is a recurring theme throughout history, from the assassination of Julius Caesar to the deaths of Abraham Lincoln and John F. But the Ides of March gained notoriety due to one fateful event - the assassination of Julius Caesar on March 15, 44 BC. Caesar was a powerful Roman general and politician who had became dictator of the Roman Empire after winning a civil war in 49 BC. Each of the Ides was sacred to Jupiter, the Roman’s supreme deity. Originally, the Ides were determined by the full moon, which reflected the lunar origins of the Roman calendar. Around this time of the year, the common expression of the ‘Ides of March’ always appears in the media and on television.

One time I was in synch with the Academy was on March 25, 1954, at the 26th Oscar ceremonies, when Best Picture, Director, Supporting Actor and Actress, and Cinematographer went to From Here to Eternity, the only film except for A Hard Day’s Night that I sat through twice the first time I saw it (such casual violations of the law were possible in those pre-cineplex days). The first stanza ends, “Our master Caesar is in the tent / Where the maps are spread, / His eyes fixed upon nothing, / A hand under his head.” In the second stanza, on Helen, “She thinks, part woman, three parts child, / That nobody looks; her feet / Practice a tinker shuffle / Picked up on the street.” The third stanza: “Shut the door of the Pope’s chapel, / Keep those children out, / There on that scaffolding reclines / Michael Angelo, / With no more sound than the mice make / His hand moves to and fro.” Each stanza closes with this couplet: “Like a long-legged fly upon the stream / His [her] mind moves upon the silence.” The last time my column coincided with the Ides of March was in a preview of the 2017 BM-W book sale, the 2023 version of which begins next Wednesday, March 22. I still have his Collected Poems, bought years ago at the sale structured around the late Peter Oppenheimer’s magnificent donation, with a printed inscription in Peter’s hand, from Yeats: “Why should we honour those that die upon the field of battle, a man may show as reckless a courage in entering into the abyss of himself.” Thinking back on the fabulously complex Hollywood story in which James Mason the actor plays his part, I’m reminded of the scene a decade later when as Humbert Humbert he’s reading Poe aloud to Lolita in Stanley Kubrick’s brilliant film. During the assassination he’s actually backing away from the violence, appalled by the murderous reality of the plan he cast his lot with, and only when Caesar staggers toward him as if to fall at his feet for mercy does Brutus deliver the coup de grace, shoving a knife deep into the man rumored to be his natural father.

The Cardinals have signed a talented replacement for Yadi in Willson Contreras, but as I picture that Opening Day without the Cardinals longtime backstop... Waino is entering his eighteenth season wearing the Birds on the Bat and though I do not think he has officially said this will be his final season, it certainly feels like that is the case. I cannot put a finger on why, but this might be the most excited I have been to start a season in a while. No announcement has been made as to the Opening Day starter as of yet (as far as I can tell), but my gut feels like it is going to be Adam Wainwright. I think a lot of it has to do with the young, talented prospects the Cardinals have coming down the pipeline. To picture (maybe) Adam Wainwright hurling that first pitch of the season to someone else — well I can’t picture it.

Currencies & metals see profit taking on Tuesday. Banks in Europe have the same problems. Good Day… And a Wonderful Wednesday to you! And Welcome to t.

the day that was [forecast](https://www.fxstreet.com/rates-charts/forecast) to be the day that the digital currency was announced… I still think that when the announcement is made for digital currency, that will be done on a weekend, and we’ll start Monday with digits… And that position is to either throw out all the work in fighting inflation (rate hikes), and allow inflation to rise and take over the economy thus brining it to its knees… My position on this is that we need to defeat inflation, and worry about the other stuff later, we need to get households back on terra firma, and if that causes a long recession, then so be it… And so, to me, now is NOT the time to pivot, for the Fed Funds rate is still below the inflation rate! This is a preview of what we will see in consumer inflation in the coming months… Because they did the exact opposite, and bought zero and 1% yielding bonds, that had unrealized losses on the books, that didn’t have to be taken, until… I’ve explained that one should wait until the Fed Heads indicate that they are nearing an end of their rate hike adventure, and THAT would be the time to buy bonds. That buying bonds with a low yield, was not a good idea, if the next bond that’s issued has a higher yield, and the next bond has an even higher yield, etc… I forgot to mention something else that good friend, Dennis Miller and I talked about the other day, and that is the new program that the Fed Heads introduced that will provide funding to banks in trouble… They can’t believe that the walking talking dolts, have seen the banks for what they are and are pulling money out of them. And Welcome to the Ides of March!

Don't open your umbrellas indoors! March 15th is the Ides of March—a day a lot of people think is as unlucky day as Friday the 13th. What's the deal?

[William Shakespeare](https://www.themarysue.com/welcome-to-shakespeare-month-on-the-mary-sue/) penned the soothsayer as saying “Beware the Ides of March” in his tragedy Julius Caesar, which turned it into an incredibly popular phrase. The “kalends” marked the first day of the month, the fifth or seventh day was called the “nones,” and the thirteenth or fifteenth was called the “ides.” March 15th is the Ides of March—a day a lot of people think is as unlucky day as Friday the 13th. Why do people say “Beware the Ides of March”? As he walked towards the very amphitheater, he made a passing joke to the soothsayer that the day was harmless to him so far. Our modern calendar has changed a little bit (shout out to Leap Year) so that no longer reflects the number of days in each month, but we kept the ides in those places, loosely corresponding to the month’s midpoint.
