A Polybius Square is a table that allows someone to translate letters into numbers. To give a small level of encryption, this table can be randomized and shared with the recipient. In order to fit the 26 letters of the alphabet into the 25 spots created by the table, the letters i and j are usually combined. A B C D E F G H I K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z To encipher a message you replace each letter with the row and column in which it appears. For example, D would be replaced with 14. To decipher a message you find the letter that intersects the specified row and column. Example:

Sources: Colts kicker Vanderjagt attempts life By CLIFF BRUNT, Associated Press Writer
January 17, 2006
Colts kicker Mike Vanderjagt attempted to take his own life yesterday at his Indianapolis home.
Carmel 911 received a frantic call from Janalyn Vanderjagt at about 4:35 Monday evening. Apparently, Janalyn had just arrived home along with the couples son Jay Michael. Janalyn found her husband Mike attempting to hang himself in the couples bedroom. Janalyn tried to persuade Mike to rethink what he was about to do. Mike repeatedly attempted to kick the chair out from under him but was unsuccessful. Indianapolis Colts place-kicker Mike Vanderjagt did not attempt to commit suicide the day after missing a game-tying field goal in an NFL Divisional Playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Someone fabricated a spoof article (as evidenced by such jokes as "Mike repeatedly attempted to kick the chair out from under him but was unsuccessful") and mocked it up to look like a genuine Associated Press article distributed on-line via Yahoo! News.

Polybios
Uit Wikipedia, de vrije encyclopedie
Ga naar: navigatie zoeken Polybios Grieks : Πολύβιος, circa 200 - circa 120 v.Chr.), of verlatiniseerd Polybius , was een Grieks historicus die militaire en politieke functies heeft bekleed.
Inhoud
bewerk Leven
Polybius werd geboren in Megalopolis (op de Peloponnesos ), uit een vooraanstaande familie. Net als zijn vader bekleedde hij in zijn vaderstad belangrijke militaire en politieke functies. Hoewel hij voorstander was van een neutraliteitspolitiek ten overstaan van de supermacht-in-wording Rome , behoorde hij toch tot de 1000 Griekse gijzelaars die na de Romeinse overwinning bij Pydna naar Rome werden overgebracht. Daar raakte Polybius nauw bevriend met Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus Africanus minor , die hij later als adviseur volgde naar Spanje en Noord-Africa, en in wiens gezelschap hij de verwoesting van Carthago en Korinthe meemaakte. Nadien trad hij op als pleitbezorger voor verscheidene met ondergang bedreigde steden in de Peloponnesos; aan zijn bemiddeling danken zij hun behoud. Polybius keerde uiteindelijk naar zijn vaderstad terug en speelde er opnieuw een politieke rol. Op enkele reizen na wijdde hij de laatste jaren van zijn leven aan de voltooiing van zijn historisch werk. Hij overleed op 82-jarige leeftijd aan de gevolgen van een zware val van zijn paard, hetgeen bewijst dat hij tot op die gezegende leeftijd actief is gebleven.

Executive summary: Histories Greek historian, a native of Megalopolis in Arcadia, the youngest of Greek cities, which, however, played an honorable part in the last days of Greek freedom as a stanch member of the Achaean League. His father, Lycortas, was the intimate friend of Philopoemen, and on the death of the latter, in 182, succeeded him as leader of the league. The date of Polybius's birth is doubtful. He tells us himself that in 181 he had not yet reached the age (perhaps thirty years) at which an Achaean was legally capable of holding office. We learn from Cicero that he outlived the Numantine War, which ended 132, and from Lucian Polybius is equally explicit as regards the personal qualifications necessary for a good historian, and in this respect too his practice is in close agreement with his theory. Without a personal knowledge of affairs a writer will inevitably distort the true relations and importance of events. Such experience would have saved accomplished and fluent Greek writers like Timaeus from many of their blunders, but the shortcomings of Roman soldiers and senators like Q. Fabius Pictor show that it is not enough by itself. Equally indispensable is careful painstaking research. All available evidence must be collected, thoroughly sifted, soberly weighed, and, lastly, the historian must be animated by a sincere love of truth and a calm impartiality.

    35. Polybius
    “Greece would not have fallen had it obeyed polybius in everything, and when Greece did meet disaster, its only help came from him” Pausanias, 8.37.2,
    http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/Bios/Polybius.html
    Polybius
    Pausanias 8.37.2, Inscription on the Temple of Despoina near Arakesion. Polybius relief sculpture found in Cleitor. Source Polybios or Polybius of Megalopolis (c. 203 BC - 120 BC) the son of Lycortas, Greek historian, famous for his book called The Histories or The Rise of the Roman Empire which covers 220 BC to 146 BC.
    As the former tutor of the Scipio Africanus the Younger, the famous adopted grandson of the famous general Scipio Africanus, Polybius remained on terms of the most cordial friendship and remained a counsellor to the man who defeated the Carthaginans in the Second Punic War by routing them from Spain and then defeating Hannibal himself in Africa at the Battle of Zama. The younger Scipio eventually invaded Carthage and forced them to surrender unconditionally. In a classic story of human behavior, Polybius captures it all: Nationalism, Racism, duplicitous politics, horrible battles, brutality, etc.; along with, loyalty, valor, bravery, intelligence, reason and resourcefulness. With his eye for detail and characteristic critically reasoned style, Polybius provided a unified view of history rather than a chronology.
    Polybius was a member of the governing class, with firsthand opportunities to gain deep insight into military and political affairs. His political career was devoted largely towards maintaining the independence of the Achaean League. As the chief representative of the policy of neutrality during the war of the Romans against Perseus of Macedonia, he attracted the suspicion of the Romans, and was one of the 1000 noble Achaeans who in 166 BC were transported to Rome as hostages, and detained there for seventeen years. In Rome, by virtue of his high culture, he was admitted to the most distinguished houses, in particular to that of Aemilius Paulus, the conqueror in the Macedonian War, who intrusted him with the education of his sons, Fabius and the younger Scipio. Through Scipio's intercession in 150 BC, Polybius obtained leave to return home, but in the very next year he went with his friend to Africa, and was present at the capture of Carthage that he described.

      Description As a young man, the historian Polybius was an active politician in the Achaean Confederacy of the second century B.C., and later, during his detention at Rome, became a close friend of some leading Roman families. His History is our most important source for the momentous half-century during which the Romans weathered the war with Hannibal and became masters of the Mediterranean world. F. W. Walbank describes the historical traditions within which Polybius wrote as well as his concept of history. About The Author F. W. Walbank

    "The fact is that we can obtain no more than an impression of a whole from a part, but certainly neither a thorough knowledge nor an accurate understanding. We must conclude then that specialized studies or monographs contribute very little to our grasp of the whole and our conviction of its truth. On the contrary, it is only by combining and comparing the various parts of the whole with one another and noting their resemblances and their differences that we shall arrive at a comprehensive view, and thus encompass both the practical benefits and the pleasure that the reading of history affords."
