    15 Ides of March -- The soothsayer's warning to Julius Caesar, "Beware the Ides of March," has forever imbued this date with a sense of foreboding. But in Roman times the expression "Ides of March" did not necessarily evoke a dark mood—it was simply the standard way of saying "March 15." Surely such a fanciful expression must signify something more than merely another day of the year? Not so. -- Click here for more information (compliments of infoplease®)
