Eyjafjallajökull activity continues with no end in sight.
3
@2
Jon,
Since this thread is newer and cleaner,maybe you should move your updates to this thread.
4
@EKoh, The other blog post is too long for me to update it. I just wanted to point out that there is a new swarm of earthquakes happening in Eyjafjallajökull at the moment. This activity started earlier tonight and appears to be growing fast in number of earthquakes.
5
I'm an amateur at geology/volcanolgy. In Regards to eyjafjallajokull there seems to be something going on at 1.1km. If I was a little more organized I would plot these earthqukes out and see if it makes any sense. Help me out experts.
6
Eyjafjallajokull is really rocking tonight. 1 EQ every minute, most of them shallow.
7
Earthquakes continue in Eyjafjallajökull. The activity continues to increase and doesn't show any signs of stopping.
8
The area in which the quakes happen is quite large... Eyjafjallajökull is known to occasionally produce more explosive eruptions from it's 2,5 km summit caldera, but the current activity is located more to the east. Still, with a seismic footprint this big, if an eruption is going to happen (of any type), it might get big o_ô . I wonder if there's an increasy in the amount of SO2 emitted.
Definitely very interesting ^_^ !
9
E-kull (http://en.vedur.is/earthquakes-and-volcanism/earthquakes/myrdalsjokull/#view=map) seismicity has fallen through the floor today. I wonder if any gas measurement has occurred near the summit.
10
@Gijs. Historically, Eyjafjall has produced VEI 2 eruptions we are informed, and consequently shouldn't it have "VEI 2-sized plumbing"? Wouldn't you as an expert agree that the time factor, we are still waiting for the magma to force it's way through, speaks AGAINST anything larger? If it was a substantially bigger body of magma, say enough to result in a VEI 4, should it not a) have resulted in greater EQ activity (magnitude, numbers and frequency) and larger GPS displacement, and b) forced its way to the surface much sooner? Could the large number of low-intensity EQs be explained by tubing more similar in appearance to a linden tree with hundreds of narrow channels and fissures rather than the popular image of a large tube with a gigantic subterranean magma chamber a few kms down?
11
Erik, would you please start a new Eyjaf activity discussion thread? Please post a link to the old one, whose posts now exceed 530 and is presenting problems for those with slow internet speeds, when you do. Thanks, sir!
12
There is new earthquake swarm starting in Eyjafjallajökull at this moment. The earthquake swarms come at 24 hour intervals at the moment it seems. This is regular swarms, so the lowdown for 24 hours does not tell much of a story it seems.
13
Ey-kull is hopping again.
I agree with Jon ( post #12) that each seismic crisis appears after a 24 break. My "split-spread-pressurize" hypothesis still appears valid, but the epicenter field seems to be restricting down to the eastern edge of the caldera - the magma isn't exploring every nook and cranny under the volcano.
I wonder if tidal strain has any input into the system? It's so close to the coast that a pseudo-hinge could be in effect. (A hinge has been used to describe the Balcones Fault on the Texas Coast) - when sea levels rise is the fault reactivates as millions of tons of seawater moves inland. Here it could be a micro-hinge (my term) pressure on the coast closes the conduits. Only we're not talking a major transgression (Texas style), but rather just a daily squeeze. Anybody know where to find the tidal predictions for Southern Iceland?
14
@Kver. There is more to this then appears. I was reading some stuff in Icelandic about the 1821 - 1823 eruption and according to that text, it appears that the eruption took place a 2 km long fissure on top of Eyjafjallajökull.
After reading that I did check the reviewed earthquake data more up close on the picture, and look. The earthquakes align them selfs on a ~2km long strip on the top of Eyjafjallajökull. They might well be opening up the 1821 - 1823 fissure again. So the question now remains. How long time is it going to take the magma to open up that old fissure (it might well be older then ~200 years).
At the moment, I have put the time scale down to 2 to 6 months. But the reality is that this might be a lot shorter waiting time if the fault is weak already.
15
Can I change the subjsct (briefly)? GVP Weekly report has updates from Stromboli and Yasur this week, two regular performers that don't usually get mentioned there
16
I am trying to put together a weekly magazine for Sr.Citizens in the Los Angeles area. I am retired now, and don’t have the resources to bring on a writer for any extended period of time, but was hoping someone could direct me to a good place to find a temporary and reliable labor source? Any help you can provide is really appreciated...
17
Everyone what a good site this is, i love home life, Children, Pets, Dolls house miniatures, Fashion, Crafts of all kinds ,Cookery, and gardening too, so this is perfect for me.
Oh and chatting of course. Looking forward to meeting you all.
Look forward to 'meeting' you all, Carol from Personal Loans!

i enjoyed reading this article, but it is obvious to me that you are getting spammed by blog
19
Great article, I unfortunately had some problems printing this artcle out, The print formating looks a little screwed over, something you might want to look into.

Really gotta love Palin - she is a real powder keg at times
23
Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but instead of that, this is fantastic blog. A great read. I will definitely be back.
24
Recently i came across your website and are still already reading along. I thought overall I would personally leave my first comment. I don’t determine to speak about with the exception that I’ve enjoyed reading. Nice blog. Allow me to keep visiting this blog really often.

Pretty sexy, eh? I mean, it’s probably strange to fuck one that just stares at you and has cold skin and is not moving at all (guess you’re seeing the analogy already, lol) but I’m guessing a threesome could be really hot using one. And for a one time experience, this could be extremely hot, even just for the novelty sakes.
31
no e sabido nada de ti hasta ahora!
32
Your blog would increase in ranking if you post more often..--.,
33
I must voice my appreciation for your kind-heartedness giving support to individuals who absolutely need guidance on this concept. Your real commitment to passing the solution throughout turned out to be astonishingly interesting and has without exception made guys and women much like me to realize their aims. Your entire interesting suggestions signifies a lot to me and extremely more to my mates. Warm regards; from all of us.

If I was getting bullied and threatened by Israel and USA every second, I would make something like this too.Leave them alone, Iran has never ever invaded any country.

hi admin, ingenious blogpost. pls keep it up!!
37
Nothing like a dory in the beginning of the article.
38
Rather timely tips for myself, as I'm in the midst of starting a membership site on this topic this month. I can relate to so much of this. I truly appreciate it when experts such as you take time out of their particular busy days to give us with some clear, honest and useful tips on topics like that.
39
At this time it seems like Expression Engine is the best blogging platform out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
40
can somebody confirm that ?
41
I have just began with my own site and I really like this template. Is it free or one of those premium templates? Sorry, I'm new to this and just looking for suggestions. BTW, I check out your site nearly everyday.
42
Excellent post and now I know what to do, Thanks alot : )! Actually this Blog post helped me a great deal. I hope you carry on with writing.

Nice post. Affiliate marketing is the way to go if you are serious about making money. I've been doing affiliate marketing for about 4 years now and tell you what, don't fall for those so called gurus selling BS. I just came across a program called "Commision Crusher" by Steve Iser and wanted to tell you about that. I've bought it and I'm really happy to tell say that I have made many times the investment in just one week. It truly rocks! You can read more about it here: http://bit.ly/commisioncrusherplus. You can also contact me through my email if you have any questions or need help. I'll be happy to help :) Barry.

While agreeing with the premise, I must disagree with the application. Habeas Corpus is one of the most important safeguards established to protect AMERICANS from a government run wild; to avoid the return of lettres de cachet, (Louis XIV) and other similar ploys used in Europe to make dissidents or anyone the government wishes dissappear (i.e., Gulag).

The funny thing about the recent posts you have made is that they always seem to come from the same stand point. I like your informal way of writing.
50
Well obviously if school shootings are a problem then your answer is to outlaw schools.
51
Had to re-read this post a few times to fully understand your points but in the end I got there.
52
when i am relaxing, i would love to just hear some instrumental music instead of regualr music``
53
Am i allowed to make a bit of advice? I'm sure you've got sth great here. Yet let's say you added a couple of links to a site which backs up what you are you mentioned? Or perhaps you might offer us more information to look at, something would associate what you're talking about, sth more tangible?
54
well of course community colleges are part of a good educational system too.,

health foods that are organice and have natural source should be the stuff that we should take'

My brother suggested I might like this web site. He was entirely right. This post truly made my day. You cann't imagine simply how much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!

Si lo que se pretende es que deje de haber maestros y profesores, este es el camino.Volveremos a los primeros años del siglo pasado, donde los estudiantes eras hijos de los señoritos pudientes, y no todos. De esta manera nos podrán manejar mejor, por si no nos manejan ya como quieren. Viva la libertad,y el libertinaje de padres e hijos. Fuera la educación, pues al fin y al cavo, si todos somos animales, que yo sepa las bestias que tambien son animales no van a la escuela.
70
That is the best blog for anybody who needs to seek out out about this topic. You realize a lot its almost exhausting to argue with you (not that I truly would want…HaHa). You undoubtedly put a new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, simply nice!
71
Dougf has, I think, a wrong impression of conservatives due to the unrelenting harshness of the media protrayal of the breed. RINOs are the ones that believe in bigger more expansive government while claimiing not to be. The conservatives are mainly concerned with those kinds of issues on a political level. There are not that many that rail on about politicizing the social conservative positions. It seems that way because they are the ones that the media dwell on.
72
hi there, looks like some great discussion going on here
73
BTW let me tell the view from the other side about SDM. My family and friends all saw the movie and think it is a hoot that it won awards since the movie was entertaining but nothing more. Some of them did not even like it and hello it had nothing to do with showing poverty or the underbelly of India (which they know nothing about and dont care to know). They just felt the story sucked it was implausible and they laughed at them speaking Engish throughtout most of the movie. But I guess you will call them names too ignorant moviegoers, bigots, jealous, etc.
74
Toller Beitrag. Ich freue mich auf weitere Artikel zu dem Thema.

Entre las propuestas de RAjoy que florecen como setas en otoño ,y despues de haber aplicado o consentido durante años exactamente el modelo de polÃtica económica que provocó el cataclismo os rescato algunas la de fortalecer la figura y función de los secretarios, interventores y tesoreros. Para ello, abogó por restablecer la habilitación estatal de estos funcionarios y reforzar sus facultades de formular reparos de ilegalidad, asà como garantizar la convocatoria de oposiciones hasta la cobertura de todas las vacantes. Oido cocina!!!!!!!Establecer como obligatoria la existencia de una comisión de vigilancia de la contratación en la entidad local y hacer que esa comisión esté presidida por un concejal de la oposición. En el Ayuntamiento de Lugo y en la Diputación las mesas de contratación ya figura la oposición. Entonces como es el cuento?????????????? Evitar el fraccionamiento y la contención de contratos mediante el abuso de los contratos menores, prohibiendo la concurrencia de empresas del mismo grupo, excluyendo la limitación a las sociedades pantallas creadas ad hoc, dando publicidad a dichos contratos a través de la webpara garantizar el respeto a la voluntad popular. HabÃamos quedado que en las mesas de contratación está la oposición y los técnicos para vigilar la legalidad de los contratos, sigo sin entender el cuento que alguien me lo explique!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,, . Aseguró que hay que limitar la presentación de mociones de censura durante el primer y último año de mandato en los ayuntamientos. En las mociones de censura y en la elección de alcalde, el PP plantea que el voto sea nominal y público

Really very good advice for computer newbies! Good task. Keep it up.
82
Very interesting. Do you have a facebook or twitter page I can follow you on?

I find it so hard to believe that it was only a month ago that i didn't know how to boil and egg and no i can actually cook dinner for my family instead of my wife always have to do it lol
85
I enjoy the efforts you have put in this, thank you for all the great content. Thanks.
86
You may have provided me a completely new look with this. I'm going to ensure that it stays in the mind. Looking forward to your future piece.
87
You make us look like we’re smarter than we really are :o).
88
Reminds me of my favorite saying: If you are one in a million, there are still 5000 people just like you in the world. So what?!
89
Thank you so much for clearing that up. I have argued that same thing to others who insisted I was wrong. I knew there was a logical explanation and now I can show them your post as an example.
90
What you do is great - but more frequent updates, please?
91
I think it was been greatly balanced. Fair I mean.
92
This content is very descriptive and informative on this subject. The work you put into this really shows. Thank you.
93
Tremendous things here. I'm very happy to see your post. Thank you so much and I'm looking ahead to touch you. Will you kindly drop me a e-mail?
94
Great post!
95
You could certainly see your expertise in the work you write. The world hopes for even more passionate writers like you who aren't afraid to say how they believe. Always follow your heart.
96
I made a blogger account a few months ago, and i added some pictures to my sidebar and don't know how to remove them. I used the image hosting site 'Photobucket' to put the pictures on my blog, and put my login information there nd they did it for me. I don't like how one of the pictures look and I really want to remove/delete it. Help? Thanks..
97
Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the web the easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people think about worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
98
I am generally into blogging this put. That good write-up a stellar deal. on a routine
99
Excellent submit. It is really help to us. Its offer us lots of interest and pleasure. Its option are so fantastic and targeting fashion so speedy. Its genuinely a good report. It offers me a lot of pleasure and curiosity.
100
I want to write and I wonder how to start a blog for people on this yahoo community. .
101
Do actually think that is true?
102
I simply wanted to compose a quick word in order to thank you for these splendid advice you are giving out here. My long internet research has finally been paid with beneficial knowledge to exchange with my friends. I would believe that most of us readers actually are really blessed to live in a superb site with so many wonderful individuals with valuable opinions. I feel extremely blessed to have seen the web pages and look forward to really more awesome moments reading here. Thank you again for all the details.
103
Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I'm trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it's the blog. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
104
Thanks .Great post!
105
Yes, it shows what we need to know.
106
I appreciate the time you put in this work or in this post. Although you have bright ideas, I really can't agree with them. I'm sure there are better ways to walk through this difficult situation. Not trying to insult or be stupid or anything .
107
Thanks for taking the time to discuss this,would you mind updating your blog with more information? It is extremely helpful for me.
108
The more I more I’m addicted to this blog
109
This really honestly significant, You happen to be a highly knowledgeable tumblr. I've got linked your current give look at toward looking for more from ones own fantastic content. In addition, We have common your website online at my web pages!
110
Hello, sorry for the off topic question but could you show me where I can get the website template you're using? I'd like to have the same template or maybe a very similar one. Could you tell me where you found it?
111
I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up! I'll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back in the future. All the best
112
When I arrived to this post I can only see an additional 50 percent of it, is this my web browser or the internet internet site? Ought to I restart?
113
Wow that was unusual. I just wrote an really long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn't show up. Grrrr... well I'm not writing all that over again. Anyhow, just wanted to say superb blog!
