Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus (Classical Latin: [ˈgnae̯.ʊs pɔmˈpɛj.jʊs ˈmaŋ.nʊs]; 29 September 106 BC – 29 September 48 BC), usually known in English as Pompey /ˈpɒmpiː/ or Pompey the Great, was a military and political leader of the late Roman Republic. He came from a wealthy Italian provincial background, and his father had been the first to establish the family among the Roman nobility. Pompey's immense success as a general while still very young enabled him to advance directly to his first consulship without meeting the normal requirements for office. His success as a military commander in Sulla's Second Civil War resulted in Sulla bestowing the nickname Magnus, "the Great", upon him. He was consul three times and celebrated three triumphs.
In mid-60 BC, Pompey joined Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gaius Julius Caesar in the unofficial military-political alliance known as the First Triumvirate, which Pompey's marriage to Caesar's daughter Julia helped secure. After the deaths of Julia and Crassus, Pompey sided with the optimates, the conservative faction of the Roman Senate. Pompey and Caesar then contended for the leadership of the Roman state, leading to a civil war. When Pompey was defeated at the Battle of Pharsalus, he sought refuge in Egypt, where he was assassinated. His career and defeat are significant in Rome's subsequent transformation from Republic to Principate and Empire.

John Akinde's 25th minute penalty gave the Bees a surprise lead on 25 minutes, after Tom Davies' handball in the box. But Conor Chaplin - celebrating his first start of the season - struck ten minutes later, as he latched onto Gary Roberts' pass to fire home from a tight angle. And Roberts himself got on the scoresheet just after the break, as he exquisitely turned his defender before slotting past the keeper with the outside of his left boot. Carl Baker made it 3-1 on 55 minutes, curling home from outside the area. Roberts had the chance to put the game to bed on 63 minutes, as Chaplin was felled in the box by Mira Dembele, but his spot kick was saved. W...

A catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius over two days left this wonderful ancient city completely buried in AD 79 at the height of the Roman Empire. Pompeii is still partially buried although excavation has shown some of its wonderful streets and walls and a few human bodies encapsulated in stone. It is near Naples in Campania. It was buried for nearly 1700 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1748.
To give it the credit it deserves, here is the entire build-up to Gary Roberts' first half goal against AFC Bournemouth, which included 48 completed - even if not consecutive - passes. The Blues left their Premier League opposition chasing shadows as they knocked the ball about in confident fashion, which has been a hallmark of their play under manager Paul Cook this season. Despite a couple of interceptions, Bournemouth were unable to get their foot on the ball long enough to thwart Pompey's possession and in all they completed almost 50 passes before Roberts eventually found the back of the net. It all started with a Ben Close interception and ended with Roberts, rather fittingly, passing the ball into the Bournemouth net for the lead. Perhaps most importantly, all eleven players to...
Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus (106-48 B.C.) was a roman general and conqueror. For three decades he was one of the most successful and influential persons in the Republic. But then his fate was turning. His old ally Caesar became more and more powerful and finally he himself became the decisive man. Pompey tried to overwhelm his rival, but fortuna was no longer with him...
We will accept battle? Certainly. Why not? We are outnumbered three to one on foot and five to one on horse. What uninjured men we have are scared and hungry and desperate. That is the advantage we must press home. I was not aware irony had military usage. We must win or die. Pompey's men have other options. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucius_Vorenus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titus_Pullo http://grooveshark.com/#!/playlist/Rome+HBO+Music/94578897 All rights belong to HBOs Rome

Voit sanoa mitä haluat
Se ei tunnu, se ei kosketa
Mene vaan, mene vaan
Tivolitkaan ei saa mua nauramaan
Eikä sirkus tai sata hattaraa
Mene vaan, mene vaan
En kävele vastaan
Toinen toistansa täällä jumaloi
Ketään täysin ei silti saada voi
Älä järjetön enää kapinoi
Mene vaan
Lumi on syönyt kaiken
Routa raiskaa tämän maan
Joutsenetkin jäätyy kiinni jaloistaan
Unelmat vaihtuu toisiin
Valuen vuosiin vihaisiin
Lähtisin
Mut se vaan ei mee enää niin
Ei mikään mee enää niin
Aina kovaa
Ei ikinä pehmeää
Enkeleitä ei meille riitäkään
Mene vaan
Mä voin kääntää pään
Vaikeaa selittää ja ymmärtää
Miten toisesta aina jälki jää
Mene vaan
Sitä, mitä koitin sussa koskettaa
Tajusin: ei oo olemassakaan
Aika kuole ei tappamallakaan
Mene vaan
Sä et ehdi
Juosta enää junaan viimeiseen
Et ehdi enää
