Yes, I'm trying to find the treasures of the copper scroll. It might be a futile quest for a 17 year old, but I'm passionate about history, and I believe I have a good theory going. I've solved the first clue. The second clue "In the sepulchre of Ben Rabbah the Third: 100 ingots of gold." is my next task. I know a sepulchre is a burial building or tomb, so Who was Ben Rabbah the Third? Or is that one of many names for the man/woman? Could the letters be mixed around, jumbled? Any ideas or theories to assist with this project would be greatly appreciated. Again, I would appreciate it if you don't criticize my attempt.

Do you think ancient scientists, mathematicians, philosophers ideas contributed to more modern scientists like Newton, Einstein, Copernicus?

For example: Aristarchus of Samos proposed the first heliocentric model of the Universe. Did Copernicus use that as part of his research? (It was also proposed by Seleucus and Vedic texts)

In other words, What do you think resided in the Great Library at Alexandria (what topics, information that could solve present mysteries on ancient peoples?) and could some of it reside somewhere unknown to us?

This is not a question to promote National Treasure. But I'm curious. If it was the greatest ancient library in the world, it must of contained more information on what they thought and knew than anywhere else. Why wouldn't you make copies of that, if not to keep the knowledge alive.

A Time for Everything

1 There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven—

2 A time to give birth and a time to die;

A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.

3 A time to kill and a time to heal;

A time to tear down and a time to build up.

4 A time to weep and a time to laugh;

A time to mourn and a time to dance.

5 A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones;

A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.

6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost;

A time to keep and a time to throw away.

7 A time to tear apart and a time to sew together;

A time to be silent and a time to speak.

8 A time to love and a time to hate;

A time for war and a time for peace.

Which time are we in? *I'd really appreciate an expression. Mine would have to a time to love and a time to hate, simply because we have come to love our possessions and hate our neighbors.

The moon slowly rose above the horizon, revealing a dark shape slinking through the trees toward the dreaming village. Crickets chirped, and small nocturnal animals ran the lenghth of the ground. As loud as a whisper, he crawled through the dense brush, taking care not to make any sound. Slowly, confidently, he rose to a crouch, just beyond the edge of the forest. Peering down into the village, past the veil of darkness, he saw lights brighten as the dark of night descended upon it. The people of Perun were going to sleep. He drew his trustworthy blade, crafted from the finest steel, sharp enough to split the most durable of items, waiting for the sweet ecstacy of revenge.

Years ago, his father lived in this village. He worked hard, building buildings and crafting wooden items for his pay, but was interested in things he shouldn't of been. A necromancer had came to him in his sleep, asking if he wanted to learn the art. He ablidged and became quite prevalent. But the people of

According to what I'm reading, in order to copy a spell into your spellbook, you must make a Spellcraft Check of DC 20+Spell level. I created my character from scratch, and my Spellcraft is only 7 (I applied my ranks unevenly with the most in Concentration and Spellcheck) Does it mean I have to get to 20 Spellcraft in order to copy the spell?

How did you get through it, or how are you getting through it. I lost my mom at 12, to a stroke, and I've "moved" on. But I say I lost a year of my life. I went into a deep depression in my life, and that took a year of living away from me. Have you lost days, months, years "off" your life to the grief? How did you handle losing someone you love? Do you still think about them every now and again? (This question is simply for curiosity. I'm not in emotional pain right now, I'm just wondering what people did that I didn't do to get through it.)

I made a couple campaigns, but I want more full campaigns. I've looked at a lot of websites, but my group is all level 1, and they can't fight really heavy creatures? Any ideas on first level campaigns or even 3-5 level campaigns (expect to get through that high of a level)

Ok, I'm having problems with the first Medieval Total War. I installed it, went to Single Player, started a new campaign, chose the Egyptians in all three time periods (this comes in later.) Every time it starts to load the game crashes and goes back to the desktop. I don't even get to the map. No error message pops up, it just crashes. I've reinstalled it twice now, and it keeps doing it. Any ideas whats causing it or how to fix it?

When you creat a new characer, you have the option of picking a constant source of images, or you can have a custom one. WHich folder do I have to put the custom picture in? or........ How do I get the picture to show up in the custom picture window?

I'm trying to install Icewind Dale. However, every time I stick it into the CD drive, it gives me a loud groan, and nothing happens. But, I can run all my other games, cd's, etc. What could be causing this? There are no scratches on the disk that are visible.

My local temp is 48 degrees and my Remote is 58. Is that acceptable or not?

I wanted to know, which things I should mainly focus on. I've read most of the book, and I just wondered what kind of things I will be tested on to get my permit. Thanks. Please no websites, or sample tests. Just based on your own knowledge.

I'm looking for some books to cover the basics of the Middle Ages. I want them to have some detail, but also to be an overview of the period. Thanks for your help.

I found this article on Egyptian "treasure and hieroglyphics" that were found in the Grand Canyon. I'm somewhat of an independent researcher and would like to know if there has been any new findings regarding this. If not, Can anyone show me websites that prove these discoveries? I would greatly appreciate it.

It has a heart, it has red and black in it but those aren't the only colors. It is possibly electronic and one of my passions is involved. My dad's girlfriend find's disgust as well as intrique in it. Her and I both shared it. It will provide me with many hours of entertainment. She has experienced it around 20 times and it involves another country. Lastly, it involves elements of humor, disgust, and things I'm passionate about. I don't think its sexual because I'm not that kind of person. So what would my interests of History, helping mankind, Philosophy, Symbols, Religion, and Alternative Medicine have to do with it?

Where did the word Christmas come from? Also, What was the name of the man we think made up the birthday of Christ as being December 25? Thank you.

I told my friend because of their cavalry, but I'm not entirely sure. Any hope would be appreciated.
