Residents look at Mount Bulusan spewing ash in Sorsogon province, south of Manila, February 21, 2011. Mount Bulusan spewed a three-kilometer ash column covering several villages in the southwest, but the volcano's status remains at Alert Level 1, meaning the source of activity is hydrothermal and shallow, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said.

I would consider moving my butt to a much safer distance, Lava Lamps are crazy enough. (Congrats on your good showing with the Cup board)
USGS - Active Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics, "Hot Spots" and the "Ring of Fire"
Here’s to prettier Autumn sunsets and somewhat colder winters (not cheering the latter).
Isn’t Art Bell over there somewhere?
Thanks, Junior crashing hurt.. oh well.
I know that Southern Arizona had awesome sunsets after the eruption in the PI.
I had 3 of 4 until Smoke decided to play Ernie Ervan.

“Isnt Art Bell over there somewhere?”
Art Bell is in Manila, far from the volcano, which is about 400 km to the southeast.
I am on Cebu, maybe 350 KM ssw of the volcano, and did not even hear about it until last night’s TV news.
There was a much larger eruption of another volcano in the northern Philippines, over a year ago.
There’s a sloughful of ‘em all thru that area .. Stay safe!
Is it nice living there? I’m looking for a retirement spot..
One of the USGS scientists looks at the AF General and says, "General, I hope you have some jam in your pockets, because we are about to be toast!"
Really good show. Everybody made it out ok but they had to move.
No repeats, I hope.

For me it is great.
It is all in attitude, and being able to adjust to a third world country.
I was also adjusted to living in foreign countries.
I left the USA for good in 2005, and lived in central Europe.
I moved to rural Cebu in Jan. 09.
Cebu is now listed as the third best island in all of Asia, second only to Bali and Maldives.
I remember the Mount Pinatubo eruption back in 1991. I was on the USS Peleliu when we sailed into Subic Bay Naval Base and seeing it covered in huge piles of volcanic ash. Many of the buildings collapsed due to the amount of ash.
