Trajan ( /ˈtreɪdʒən/; Latin: Marcus Ulpius Nerva Traianus Augustus; 18 September 53 – 9 August 117), was Roman Emperor from 98 to 117 AD. Born into a non-patrician family in the province of Hispania Baetica, Trajan rose to prominence during the reign of emperor Domitian. Serving as a legatus legionis in Hispania Tarraconensis, in 89 Trajan supported the emperor against a revolt on the Rhine led by Antonius Saturninus.
In September 96, Domitian was succeeded by Marcus Cocceius Nerva, an old and childless senator who proved to be unpopular with the army. After a brief and tumultuous year in power, a revolt by members of the Praetorian Guard compelled him to adopt the more popular Trajan as his heir and successor. Nerva died on 27 January 98, and was succeeded by his adopted son without incident.
As a civilian administrator, Trajan is best known for his extensive public building program which reshaped the city of Rome and left multiple enduring landmarks such as Trajan's Forum, Trajan's Market and Trajan's Column. Early in his reign, he annexed the Nabataean kingdom, creating the province of Arabia Petraea. His conquest of Dacia enriched the empire greatly — the new province possessed many valuable gold mines.
Tom Vasel (born on September 8, 1976) is a well known podcaster and reviewer of board games. Vasel co-hosts a long-running and popular gaming podcast titled The Dice Tower, and as of 2011[update] has posted over 1200 reviews on the internet database BoardGameGeek.
As of August 2003[update], Vasel taught mathematics at the International Christian School in Uijeongbu. He assumed the role of Pastor of Uijongbu Baptist Church, succeeding Pastor Rick Kelley in March 2007. After leaving South Korea, he has worked as a teacher in Florida.
Since May 2005, Vasel has co-hosted The Dice Tower, a podcast about board games and wargames. Originally, Vasel represented players who prefer designer games, while Joe Steadman advocated for those who prefer wargames. Steadman left the show in May 2006 after the 50th episode. Vasel, hosting alone with occasional input from Sam Healey for a few shows, rearranged the format to include recorded segments by guest reviewers and players. Gradually Healey began to take a larger role and was eventually promoted to co-host. Healey has since left the show and been replaced by the show's voice-over man, Eric Summerer.

Wedi blino ar yr hen ddrygioni
I'm so tired of that old mischief
Wedi laru ar yr hen ddrygioni
Sick and tired of that old mischief

Rhaid cynilo a chyd-dynnu
We must save up and be friendly
A chlustfeinio a chael babis
And be aware and have babies

Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Hey, I've thrown it all away
I've pushed it down
And I know it won't come back
Cos I broke the life I had
Now, I've thought it through for now
And I don't think that'll change it all today
Makes sense in any way
Thinking over what you said
It's over, and it's over
Now I know this time
That I've crossed the line
Hey, I guess I can't complain for what I've done
Cos you've served me up 'til now
And it'll all work out somehow
Now, I know I've made mistakes
I've sat around
And I wish that everyday
Was the last day
Thinking over what you said
It's over, and it's over
Now I know this time
That I've crossed the line
The line
I never thought I'd see reality could bring me down
I must be living in the past
I never thought I'd see reality could bring me down
I must be living in the past
I never thought I'd see reality could bring me down
I must be living in the past

Als ich letztens auf der Straße ging,
sah ich 'nen Dealer an der Ecke steh'n.
Und er lächelte mir zu und bietet Koks mir an,
was ich nun überhaupt nicht verstehen kann.
Er sieht so freundlich aus,
ihm ist nichts zuzutrau'n
und auf einmal will er dir 'ne Tüte Koks anhau'n.
Refrain:
Yeah!
Ich sagte keine Macht den Drogen,
dazu stehe ich auch.
Verdirbst dir selbst deine Gesundheit durch den Qualm und durch den Rauch.
Ich sagte keine Macht den Drogen,
denn das Leben wird betrogen,
durch die Spritzen durch den Qualm,
wird es dir nur so angezogen.
Er sieht mich lange komisch an
und spricht dann irgendwann:
"Du hast ja keine Ahnung,
was die Droge machen kann.
Sie verschönert dir das Leben,
du hast keine Sorgen mehr.
Ja deine Kummerfalte ist dann schon fast leer.
Hast's du's dir nun überlegt,
du kleiner Feigling?
Denn ich muss gleich weg,
meine Zeit ist sehr gering!"
Refrain
Er sieht mich vorwurfsvoll an und geht beleidigt fort.
Er geht nun irgendwo hin,
was weiß ich für eine Ort.
Er wird bestimmr noch Opfer finden,
die ihn Koks abnehmen.
Doch zu so einem Menschen wir niemand stehen.
Er hat vielleicht 'nen andern Dealer als kleinen Freund,
doch so 'ne Freundschaft würde ich schnell bereu'n.
