Originally meant warlike or aggressive.. Now means drunk due to widespread misuse. But that's the idea behind urban words, so now it means drunk. (Original) Archibald has been ruffling this fellow's feathers for nearly a fortnight now. I dare say he has been simply belligerent.
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The future of Ohio high school basketball games could be extended by four minutes. High school basketball games at the varsity level are currently four eight-minute quarters. But there's a proposal on the National Federation of State High School Associations' table to change the quarters to halves.
On a college academic calendar, quarters are typically 10 weeks long, plus one additional week for finals. A full academic year, not including summer, is 3 quarters. So if one does not go to summer school, 7 quarters would be 2 full academic years, plus one additional quarter. If you do go to summer school, 7 quarters would be 2 full academic years, plus the summer quarter between those two years. Most full time students take 3 to 4 classes at a time on the quarter system.
