Pompeii Interview
Zara: Welcome to the Zariana Show! Today we have three special guests and all of these guests have survived one of the most deadly eruptions in all of history. All three guests are from the natural disaster which killed roughly 2000 citizens in the city of Pompeii. These people survived this eruption. Here is Marciana, Abigail, and Gabriella. Let’s get right into it. My first question is for Marciana. What was it like for you to breathe in that horrid air from Mount Vesuvius?
Riley: It was completely awful. That awful smoke has damaged my voice terribly and that is why I speak this way. I grabbed my brother’s hand I tried to hold my breath but I passed out from all of the fatal gasses. My best friend Blake carried me to

When I visited Pompeii last year my heart completely stopped for a few seconds. I was so shocked at what it had become since the last time I saw it. There were dead people and pets laying on the ground. There bones covered in hardened mud. You could barely recognize that they were even humans because there was so much mud on top of them. I hope to never visit Pompeii again because it brought back some horrible memories which I will never forget.
Zara: That must have been devastating to see your old home not even standing anymore. My next question is for Gabriella. It is, what did the city of Pompeii look like before it was destroyed by Mount Vesuvius? Do you ever wish that Pompeii still existed and that you could be living in Pompeii right now?
Katie: Pompeii was absolutely beautiful. The houses were the most beautiful houses you could possibly imagine. They were big and had lots of room inside. There were stores at every corner and there were many trees which I thought was one of the most beautiful parts of Pompeii. I wish that it still existed now but unfortunately it does not. It would be my dream to be living in Pompeii right now. I miss Pompeii greatly but I have learned on how to adapt to other
Mount Vesuvius was the most dangerous horrific volcano of 79 A.D. It erupted thirty times it even though it killed the city of Pompeii but while the city was burning thousands of people died! Lava and ash covered the cities, Some people of Pompeii were covered in stone today people look at the people that died during the event in museums.
Pompeii was ancient it was located in Italy. The people lived by a volcano it erupted. What remain there were 2000 bodies. When the volcano erupted the ash covered the small houses.
17 years before the eruption on February 5th, the bay of Naples 30 kilometres from Pompeii was shaken by a violent earthquake. As the people of Pompeii rebuilt their town they had no idea that they would soon
he city of Pompeii was recovering from an earthquake in 63 AD when Mount Vesuvius erupted killing nearly 2,000 people initially and nearly 10,000 more in the 25 hour darkness that ensured. The city was rebuilding and from the view of Pliny the Younger the plume of smoke looked like a Mediterranean pine tree that was miles high and wide Pliny’s uncle Pliny the Elder was killed by volcanic rock while trying to save people from Pompeii. The volcano is considered the most dangerous one in the world even though people still build around the volcano and unlike those that suffered Pompeii was never rebuilt it is a very big tourist attraction though. The buildings and items were preserved very well because of the ash and pumice.
“I heard a big bang, so I looked outside. There was black smoke all around us.”Mount Vesuvius in Pompeii, Italy suddenly exploded in the year 79 A.D. It caused many deaths, but is now a very historic site. Before Mount Vesuvius erupted, the people in Pompeii lived a similar life as we do now. Their values, work, and gadgets are similar to what we have now.
The town in its height had amazing temples, a forum, and theater for the enjoyment of the wealthy visitors. The eruption of the volcano, Vesuvius, began around noon of August 24, 17 AD when the mountain exploded, sending a 10 mile high cloud of ash, smoke, and rock into the sky. The debris rained down onto the city for the next day, causing its inhabitants to seek safety along the shore line, away from the mountain. Many, however, remained in their homes and became trapped there by both debris and dust clouds. The next morning, those who remained in Pompeii were killed by the poisonous gasses released by the mountain.
“By 79 CE, Pompeii was a city of about 20,000 people. There had been earthquakes, but the eruption which began on October 24 lasted for two days.” Say Kerion Connolly for 1,500 yrs pompeii was gone covered in volcanic ash because of mt vesuvius. There had been earthquakes, but the eruption which began on October, 24 lasted for two days and made the city of ash. Before the eruption there had been multiple earthquakes. Then on october 24 the volcano erupted. Earthquakes shook pompeii then the volcano erupted for 2 days straight.
On the 24th of August 79 A.D Mount Vesuvius erupted. Ash and dust covered the the sky 19.2km high. All the ash covered the whole of Pompeii 5m deep.Then a combination of pumice and ash rolled down the mountain at 112 kph and covered pompeii. More than 2,000 people died. The eruption covered over 320 square kilometres. The ash that covered the town preserved pompeii and the people at their last moments.
In the short time that Mount Vesuvius erupted, it changed the earth surrounding it. Fortunately, during the eruption of 79 AD, there were firsthand reports describing the volcano in detail, written by Pliny the Younger – an author of ancient Rome. The people near Mount Vesuvius did not expect the eruption, and when the eruption occurred, not everybody left the area because they believed they would be safe. The eruption lasted approximately 24 hours. Pliny the Younger observed the volcano from afar and reported that the dark cloud of ash released from the volcano blocked all light from the sun, making it darker than night. Despite the rain of ash and pumice at the beginning of the eruption, this was not necessarily lethal for the nearby civilizations. However
Aloha my name is Tammy Lynn Ross and I am from the island of Molokai, in all truth I really didn’t know where I wanted to do my practicum or where to start in fulfilling the requirements for this class. I applied for a job with the Consuelo foundation and was interviewed for the position as a community outreach educator, but missed getting hired as another candidate was chosen. It was a disappointing day for me really however; that day the light bulb clicked on and I saw that a window of opportunity had presented itself as I still did not have a host site to do my practicum. Fortunately I still had Consuelo Foundations contact person and emailed them right away. I talked to them about bringing me on as an intern and I was accepted. Being that I didn’t get the position but was still interested in doing the work, I choose to do my practicum with the Consuelo
“What is life in Pompeii like? Well I will tell you, we were going on with our daily life, when all of the sudden BOOM! BANG! Mount Vesuvius erupted, and everybody started running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off. This happened in the year of 79 in a city of 22,000 people called Pompeii. Daily life in Pompeii is much like today because there is ancient fast food, many people played different roles, but it was a non-gadget world.
It was the 24th of August 79 A.D when Vesuvius erupted. The volcano spurted a thick layer of volcanic ash, which became a large extent of molten ash and pumice into the air. Molten debris covered the area suffocating inhabitants. On the eve of that fateful night was an estimated 20 000 people living in Pompeii. What ought to be once a thriving, sophisticated Roman city, fell in to ruins. Rome’s buildings and communities were covered more than three metres deep. (Darlington. R). More than 2000 people died in the catastrophic disaster (A+E Networks), and the city was abandoned for more than 1700 years.
The Glass Menagerie is a play written by Tennessee Williams in the mid 1930’s about a poor family that seeks for an escape from their apathetic lives. The main characters are Amanda, the mother, and her children Tom and Laura. After being abandoned by their father, Tom was forced to work in a factory to provide for the family. Throughout the duration of the play, Amanda schemes to find Laura a gentleman caller, which ends in failure when they realize the man they find is already engaged. This piece is classified as a memory play due to its structure based upon flashbacks from Tom’s past experiences. Tennessee Williams, the author of the piece, wrote the play in
This paper discusses about the S-MAC , which is a Medium Access Control Protocol used in wireless sensor networks . The protocol proposed in the paper is mainly inspired by PAMAS . The important goals of this protocol is to conserve energy and configure by itself or known as scalability . It is entirely different from traditional mac protocols like ieee 802.11. The protocol uses three primary techniques to support energy conserving and self-configuration . they periodically sleep to minimize energy consumption , then formation of virtual clusters by neighbor nodes for auto synchronization on sleep times and radios are also set to sleep during transmissions of other node . Then S-mac uses message passing and in-channel
