(TheWeatherSpace.com) -- One of the most active volcanos in Indonesia has erupted, blasting lava and hot gas down the slopes.

Mount Karangetang is located on Siau, part of the Sulawesi island chain. It erupted in August, killing four people.

This mountain is along the "Ring of Fire, the volcano chain surrounding the Pacific Basin.

The eruption took place hours after the Japan 8.9-magnitude Earthquake.

No one knows the ‘date’ of the End of the World, because it’s not something that can be pinned down anyway.

No one knows exactly when it started, nor how long it will take, but it does ‘seem’ to be in progress. When the actual ‘end’ occurs, there will be no one here to record it.

Himmler (and Hitler and other high roller nazis) were big into the occult

Didn’t you see Indiana Jones and the Crystal skull? Property of the Mayans and related to end times prophecy. Looks like maybe Himmler the old boy actually found one. Supposedly there is a list of all the treasures Himmler accumulated and hid or was seeking.

Now, who has the Holy Grail? Ark of the Covenant? Maybe it’s with obama’s birf certificate.

Don’t forget the earthquake in New Zealand and the volcano in Hawaii too!!!

The Ring of Fire has awakened. I would give the credit to God’s creation, but perhaps Al Gore & his enviro wackos will credit those nasty capitalists since it’s obviously the use of fossil fuel and a nasty President Bush’s fault.

The funny thing about the whole 2012 thing is that the method they used to translate the Mayan calendar was wrong and they were off by 50-100 years.

So... the END could have Started 75 years ago.

I though all this talk of steaming lava, hot gas, and erupting was aboout Michael Moore.

Understandable mistake. From what I have heard, the major difference is that the noxious fumes that hover around Michael Moore are much worse than the sulphur-based fumes of the volcanoes. Apparently, showers are not a high priority when you have the entire working class to save.

“The earth getting a fever is one thing but I’m worried that God is getting a headache.”

Global warming has run its course. The Left will say that years of oil drilling, fracking and coal mining has caused the earth’s crust and mantle to become unstable so we must immediately cease all energy extraction.

"On March 19, the moon will swing around Earth more closely than it has in the past 18 years, lighting up the night sky from just 221,567 miles (356,577 kilometers) away. On top of that, it will be full. And one astrologer believes it could inflict massive damage on the planet.

The moon is always full. It's just that various places on earth the earth's shadow blocks all or part of it from the sun depending upon where the moon is relative to those places.

Sheesh.

"Full" refers to being opposite the earth such that the full surface is illuminated. "New" means the moon is between the earth and sun, thus no surface is illuminated. There are 3 things in play. Perigee (closest distance to earth in the last 18 years). Full moon syzygy (earth/moon/sun) in a direct line with the earth between moon and sun. Spring equinox...sun aligned with the equator. A fourth consideration is an inbound shock from an X class flare on the sun. That strikes the magnetosphere and often sets off volcanic and atmospheric (storm) activity. March 1993 had large storms, earthquakes and volcanic activity.

Ah, thanks. I knew they were into occult stuff (”The Pink Swastika” describes a lot) but didn’t know about crystal skulls.

The Supermoon is on March 19th, that is when the Moon will be as close to the moon as it can get...

The future will bring the *Lord*

Indonesia volcano erupts, spews lava and gas

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110311/ap_on_re_as/as_indonesia_volcano

JAKARTA, Indonesia – One of Indonesia’s most active volcanos has erupted, sending lava and searing gas clouds tumbling down its slopes.

Volcanology official Agus Budianto said Friday that authorities were still trying to evacuate residents living along the slopes of Mount Karangetang.

There were no immediate reports of injuries or serious damage.

The 5,853-foot (1,784-meter) mountain is located on Siau, part of the Sulawesi island chain. It last erupted in August, killing four people.

Indonesia, the world’s largest archipelago, is located on the so-called Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.

The eruption happened hours after a massive earthquake in Japan that triggered a Pacific-wide tsunami.

That “Ring of fire” is sure as hell burning hot during this past year! Can’t help but to think there’s more to this, given the pattern. Never during my 30(something) short years do I recall activity like this in such a short amount of time. Read that the quake yesterday shifted the Earth’s axis by 10 inches. (can’t find the link)

This event was the buildup from the new moon at the beginning of the week. I looked at the earthquake record for the past week, and there had been more than a dozen earthquakes above 5 in that area over 3 or 4 days previous to the big blow.

The Indonesian quake in, hmm, 2005 (the horrible one with all the tsunami-related deaths) shifted the Earth’s axis, it’ll be interesting to see how much this big quake did something like it.
