Daily Roman History: During the very early Imperial period Augustus envisioned the border extending well into Germania. This goal was halted after the battle of Teutoburg forest, the largest Roman loss to date wherein three whole legions, led by Publius Quinctilius Varus, were salughtered almost completely. Facilitated by a Germanic officer, named Arminius who was attached to Varus' auxilia, the Roman army was lead into a trap and ambushed by an alliance of Germanic tribes. So devastating was the loss to his future ambitions Emperor Augustus could sometimes be heard banging the walls of the imperial palace yelling "Varus, give me back my legions!" #history

@ODELL NEVER POSTED TO HAVE A GOOD MORNING SO I WASNT SURE IF I WAS SUPPOSED TO OR NOT.

GOOD MORNING ☀️ Bird of the day: white-winged crossbill This bird breeds in the coniferous forests of Alaska, Canada, the northernmost United States and across the Palearctic extending into northeast Europe. It nests in conifers, laying 3–5 eggs. This crossbill is mainly resident, but will irregularly irrupt south if its food source fails. The American race seems to wander more frequently than the Eurosiberian subspecies. This species will form flocks outside the breeding season, often mixed with other crossbills. It is a rare visitor to western Europe, usually arriving with an irruption of red crossbills. #birdstr

Bird of the day: Dickcissel Dickcissels forage on the ground or in fields. They mainly eat insects and seeds. Outside of the nesting season, they usually feed in flocks. They are considered a pest by farmers in some regions because flocks can consume large quantities of cultivated grains. Dickcissel populations frequently fluctuate in numbers, even to the extent that their range changes notably. In the early 19th century, dickcissels expanded eastward, establishing a population in New England and the mid-Atlantic states that disappeared around the end of the century. Both appearance and disappearance were probably related to changes in land use. #birdstr

Day 3 of returning to running. Just an easy 8k. The real training begins after week 2. #running

Daily Roman History: After the Second Punic War Rome enforced harsh penalties on Carthage, including high reparations, elimination of its navy, and a reduction of size to basically just the city and surrounding areas. However, in the coming decades Carthage was able to thrive economically and pay it's debts to Rome ahead of schedule. Somewhat alarmed a group of Roman senators began agitating for renewed war to end the city once and for all. Among its leaders was a senator named Cato the Elder who would end every speech he gave with 'Carthago delenda est' ('Cathrage must be destroyed'). Eventually this faction got their wish and war was declared. Despite having no Navy and a conscript army of slaves and youth the Carthaginians held out for three years. In the end, however, they would lose and the city would pillaged, reduced to absolute ruins, and allegedly have the ground sown with salt so nothing would grow there again. #history

Daily Roman History: While it was common for young Roman men to be the ward of an older male as a coming of age process many of Julius Caesar's contemporaries mocked him for his very close relationship to his gaurdian the King of neighbouring Bithynia. The epitapht 'Queen of Bithynia' even came to be given to Ceasar by his enemies #history

Bird of the day: Atlantic Puffin The Atlantic Puffin is the provincial bird. About 95% of all North America's puffins breed around the Newfoundland and Labrador coasts. The largest puffin colony in the western Atlantic (225,000 pairs) can be found at the Witless Bay Ecological Reserve, 32km south of St. John's. #birdstr
