A) Timeline: Mount Vesuvius erupted and destroyed the Italian cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. An estimated 16,000 people perished on that fateful day. Pliny the Elder died August 25, 79 AD, while attempting the rescue by ship of a friend and his family from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Pliny the Elder was a friend of the Roman Emperor Vespasian, who ruled from AD 69 to AD 79. Vespasian also ordered all descendants of the royal line of David to be hunted down, causing the Jews to be persecuted from province to province. (Make five links.)

A) Finish the Grant football file.
B) Add the following to your Dreamweaver Olympic timeline and link to evidence of competing in the nude.
It is believed that the Greek tradition of athletic nudity started at the games in 720 BC, and it was most likely introduced by the Spartans or Megarian Orsippus. It is from this practice that we have our word “gymnasium” – derived from the Greek word “gymnos” meaning “naked”. Competing naked was meant as a tribute to the gods and to encourage aesthetic appreciation of the male body.
C) In Photoshop, crop a picture of Mount Vesuvius with the height being 350 pixels. In Fireworks, show me someone who was killed by Mt. Vesuvius. Adjust the image to 350 pixels heigh. Juxtapose both in a Dreamweaver double table.
