Synopsis:

It is 58 BC and the mighty Tenth Legion, camped in Northern Italy , prepare for the arrival of the most notorious general in Roman history: Julius Caesar.

Marcus Falerius Fronto, commander of the Tenth is a career soldier and long-time companion of Caesar’s. Despite his desire for the simplicity of the military life, he cannot help but be drawn into intrigue and politics as Caesar engineers a motive to invade the lands of Gaul .

Fronto is about to discover that politics can be as dangerous as battle, that old enemies can be trusted more than new friends, and that standing close to such a shining figure as Caesar, even the most ethical of men risk being burned.

—— Excerpt from Marius’ Mules ——

“Priscus raised his head to make out what was happening and saw one of the three remaining warriors, who had rescued shields from among the dead Romans, making straight for him in the press. It was always a dangerous situation; Centurions led from the front, and their high visibility made them an obvious target. The Centurionate bore a ridiculously high mortality rate, and Priscus was determined not to become just another statistic in the Legion’s paperwork. He eyed the wounded, blood-stained warrior who clutched a dagger in one hand, a large Roman shield in the other.

Reaching out, he gripped the shaft of a standard that one of his Signifers held.

“Give me that.”

The Signifer relinquished the tall, heavy and unwieldy standard reluctantly. It was an honour, though a dangerous one, to carry the standard.

Swinging the weighted pole above the heads of the men, he brought it down and angled it like a spear. Indeed, there was a spear head on the very tip, above the golden laurel wreath. Bracing himself, he pulled it back. The barbarian sneered and held the large shield over his torso, looking over the top in the manner of a Legionary, and picked up pace into a charge. The Legionaries held back. Though they could probably have tackled the barbarian, none of his men would dare dishonour the Primus Pilus like that. The barbarian pushed the shield out forward to ward off the spear head and laughed.

At the last minute, Priscus braced himself and dropped the point of the standard toward the ground. The spear point jammed deep into the lower leg of the barbarian, who stumbled and tripped, shredding his shin. As the point tore out of the side of his leg, his momentum carried him forward, pitching him into the air. He landed some yards from Priscus, and struggled to get to his feet. His right leg was useless but Priscus had to give him credit, as he managed to pull himself upright with his left, leaving the shield on the floor. He turned to face the Roman, snarling, and failed to see the swinging standard in the arms of the Primus Pilus in time. The heavy bronze and steel weight at the top of the standard smashed into the side of his head. Priscus hauled the thing upright and held it out for the Signifer to take. The man took one look at the blood-soaked spear tip and the bent and dented decoration.

“I hope you’re not going to try and take that out of my pay, sir.”

Getting to know the list of features available in the new release is a tough job for webmasters. They have to go through the change log and other additional documents offered by product owners to get the feature list. Agriya has taken a step forward to offer a slide show of features in the new version during installation with an aim to make things easier.

Agriya launches add-on modules for MarkIt, a social bookmarking script

May 25th, 2009

Summary:

Agriya infoway unveils its add-on modules for MarkIt, a social bookmarking script. These modules were released to enhance user experience.

Chennai, May 23, 2009. Agriya Infoway, a web development company, announced the launch of its add-on modules for MarkIt, a social bookmarking script. The three add-on modules were released to enhance user experience.

In the net world, spam has become a common threat to webmasters. Recaptcha has come to rescue them, by offering images of letters and numbers for humans to decipher. The Recapthca integration module is offered as an add-on with MarkIt, to help webmasters safeguard their site from spammers. A social bookmarking site will attract a large number of visitors, so spammers concentrate more on social bookmarking sites. This add on hence seems to be a must use for Markit users.

Facebook is the popular social networking site that has pulled in more than 75% of net users. So offering some means to make use of Facebook information like profile, friends list and account details in a site will attract more users. This attempt is a strategic move to monetize your site through the popularity of Facebook. Another add-on module called ‘Fconnect’ of MarkIt, will enable users to login using their Facebook Id. It doesn’t stop with this; users logged in with their facebook Id can invite their facebook friends and even add their MarkIt site details to their Facebook profile box. Fconnect will be the right choice for raising the site’s member count.

It offers one more add-on named ‘Zementa API Integration’ which suggests relevant tags collected around the web while adding a bookmark to help users select tags at a single go. This module will reduce the time taken to track down information to include.

Speaking on the announcement, Ms.Sheerin, Vice President of Marketing at Agriya, said “We, at Agriya, always work towards customer satisfaction. We try to bring something new into our product and make it unique in the market. The release of the add-ons for MarkIt is one such effort. We are sure that customers will really love to add those modules and use them to their advantage”
