Two old guys, Abe and Sol, are sitting on a park bench feeding pigeons and talking about baseball. Abe turns to Sol and asks, “Do you think there’s

baseball in heaven?” Sol thinks about it for a minute and replies, “I dunno. But let’s make a deal: if I die first, I’ll come back and tell you if there’s base-

ball in heaven, and if you die first, you do the same.”

A few months later, poor Abe passes on. One day soon afterward, Sol is sitting there feeding the pigeons by himself when he hears a voice whisper,

“Sol... Sol...”

Sol responds, “Abe! Is that you?”“Yes it is, Sol,” whispers Abe’s ghost.

Sol, still amazed, asks, “So, is there baseball in heaven?”“Well,” says Abe, “I’ve got good news and bad news.”

“Gimme the good news first,” says Sol.Abe says, “Well... there is baseball in heaven.”

Sol says, “That’s great! What news could be bad enough to ruin that!?”Abe sighs and whispers, “You’re pitching on Friday.”

A man and a woman who have never met before find themselves in the same sleeping carriage of a train. After the initial embarrassment, they both manage to get to sleep; the woman on the top bunk, the man on the lower. In the middle of the night the wom-an leans over and says, “I’m sorry to bother you, but I’m awfully cold and I was wondering if you could possi-bly pass me another blanket.” The man leans out and with a glint in his eye said “I’ve got a better idea ... let’s pretend we’re married.” “Why not,” giggles the woman. “Good,” he replies. “Get your own blanket.”

On This Day in History: VESUVIUS ERUPTS After centuries of dormancy, Mount Vesuvius erupts in southern Italy, devastating the prosperous Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum and killing thousands. The cities, buried under a thick layer of volcanic material and mud, were never re-built and largely forgotten in the course of history. In the 18th century, Pompeii and Herculaneum were rediscovered and excavated, providing an unprecedented archaeological record of the everyday life of an ancient civilization, startlingly pre-served in sudden death. The ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum thrived near the base of Mount Vesuvius at the Bay of Naples. In the time of the early Roman Empire, 20,000 people lived in Pompeii, including merchants, manufacturers, and farmers who exploited the rich soil of the region with numerous vineyards and orchards. None suspected that the black fertile earth was the legacy of earlier eruptions of Mount Vesuvius. Herculaneum was a city of 5,000 and a favorite summer destination for rich Romans. Named for the mythic hero Hercules, Herculaneum housed opulent villas and grand Roman baths. Gambling artifacts found in Herculaneum and a brothel unearthed in Pompeii attest to the decadent nature of the cities. There were smaller resort commu-nities in the area as well, such as the quiet little town of Stabiae. At noon on August 24, 79 A.D., this pleasure and prosperity came to an end when the peak of Mount Vesuvius exploded, propelling a 10-mile mushroom cloud of ash and pumice into the stratosphere. For the next 12 hours, volcanic ash and a hail of pumice stones up to 3 inches in diameter showered Pompeii, forcing the city’s occu-pants to flee in terror. Some 2,000 people stayed in Pompeii, holed up in cellars or stone structures, hoping to wait out the eruption. A westerly wind protected Herculaneum from the initial stage of the eruption, but then a giant cloud of hot ash and gas surged down the western flank of Vesuvius, engulfing the city and burning or asphyxiating all who remained. This lethal cloud was followed by a flood of volcanic mud and rock, burying the city. The people who remained in Pompeii were killed on the morning of August 25 when a cloud of toxic gas poured into the city, suffocating all that remained. A flow of rock and ash followed, collapsing roofs and walls and burying the dead. Much of what we know about the eruption comes from an account by Pliny the Younger, who was staying west along the Bay of Naples when Vesuvius exploded. In two letters to the historian Tacitus, he told of how “people covered their heads with pillows, the only defense against a shower of stones,” and of how “a dark and horrible cloud charged with combustible matter suddenly broke and set forth. Some bewailed their own fate. Others prayed to die.” Pliny, only 17 at the time, escaped the catastro-phe and later became a noted Roman writer and administrator. His uncle, Pliny the Elder, was less lucky. Pliny the Elder, a celebrated naturalist, at the time of the erup-tion was the commander of the Roman fleet in the Bay of Naples. After Vesuvius exploded, he took his boats across the bay to Stabiae, to investigate the eruption and reassure terrified citizens. After going ashore, he was overcome by toxic gas and died. According to Pliny the Younger’s account, the eruption lasted 18 hours. Pompeii was buried under 14 to 17 feet of ash and pumice, and the nearby seacoast was drastically changed. Herculaneum was buried under more than 60 feet of mud and volcanic material. Some residents of Pompeii later returned to dig out their destroyed homes and salvage their valuables, but many treasures were left and then forgotten.In the 18th century, a well digger unearthed a marble statue on the site of Herculaneum. The local government excavated some other valuable art objects, but the project was abandoned. In 1748, a farmer found traces of Pompeii beneath his vineyard. Since then, excavations have gone on nearly without interruption until the present. In 1927, the Italian government resumed the excavation of Herculaneum, retrieving numerous art treasures, including bronze and marble statues and paintings. The remains of 2,000 men, women, and children were found at Pompeii. After perishing from asphyxiation, their bodies were covered with ash that hardened and preserved the outline of their bodies. Later, their bodies decomposed to skeletal remains, leaving a kind of plaster mold behind. Archaeologists who found these molds filled the hollows with plaster, revealing in grim detail the death pose of the victims of Vesuvius. The rest of the city is likewise frozen in time, and ordinary objects that tell the story of everyday life in Pompeii are as valuable to archaeologists as the great unearthed statues and frescoes. It was not until 1982 that the first human remains were found at Herculaneum, and these hundreds of skeletons bear ghastly burn marks that testifies to horrifying deaths. Today, Mount Vesuvius is the only active volcano on the European mainland. Its last eruption was in 1944 and its last major eruption was in 1631. Another eruption is expected in the near future, would could be devastating for the 700,000 people who live in the “death zones” around Vesuvius.

CONTENTIOUS REDRAWING OF FEDERAL ELECTION RIDINGS IN SASK. COMPLETEctv. ca- After a contentious debate, the final map of new federal election boundaries in Saskatchewan is complete. A commission tasked with redrawing the map says only a few tweaks have been made after it considered objections from Conserva-tive members of Parliament. The overall number of seats in Saskatche-wan remains at 14. The new map will see Saskatchewan get urban-only ridings instead of urban-rural hybrids, which spread out like slices of a pie, pulling in a corner of Regina and Saskatoon along with a bigger rural area.However, the commission has altered the boundaries of the Prince Albert riding to in-clude the communities of Batoche, Domremy and St. Louis, and moved an area, including the village of Avonlea, to the riding of Moose Jaw-Lake Centre-Lanigan. New riding maps were also tabled today for British Columbia and Quebec.

AND JUST A FEW MORE INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT CATS!

9. Cats Enjoy the SunIf your cat appears to be able to tolerate heat very well this is because the ancestors of cats were originally desert-living animals.

10. Cats Purring Remains a MysteryScientist still do not know exactly how the purring sound is made, although some believe that it originates in the cardiovascular system rather than the throat.

11. Cats Learn To Purr QuicklyCats start to purr at one week old and can do so continually as they inhale and exhale.

12. They Can Learn A Few TricksSome cats can learn a trick or two, besides coming at the sound of a can opening. Fetch is a favourite, but if you tell the dog, you might find a present in your favourite shoe.

13. Their Hearts Are RacingA cat’s pulse is between 160 and 240 beats per minute, depending on the age of the cat (the younger the cat, the faster the heartbeat).
