Luke
21:[25] And there shall be signs in the
sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations,
with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men's hearts
failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on
the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall
they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28]
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your
heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Park volcano may go active.
Satellite pictures
taken over the past decade apparently indicate that the mountain has
grown in
elevation by several inches, a tell-tale sign of increased volcanic
activity
well below the surface, caused by rising magma.
July 25, 2010 - Volcanoes... Authorities declared a
yellow alert for the Machin volcano located in Colombia's central Tolima

June - Volcanoes 2010:June 2... Cleveland volcano in
the Aleutian Islands in southwest Alaska is showing signs of unrest. The Alaska
Volcano Observatory says there was a small ash emission from Cleveland Volcano
on Sunday evening and satellite images received Monday, May 31, indicated flows coming
from the volcano's upper flanks. The volcano 939 miles from Anchorage is on an
uninhabited island. Short-lived explosions with ash clouds or plumes exceeding
20,000 feet above sea level are frequent on Cleveland, which last showed signs
of unrest in the fall of 2009.
June
7, 2010 - Volcanoes…
Eurasia's highest volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia's Far East has
shown again signs of intensified activity throwing clouds of smoke and ash into
the air to a height of 2.5 kilometers. The Klyuchevskoy,
which lies 220 miles north of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, is one of the largest
active volcanoes in the world. It erupts about every 2-3 years.
June
8, 2010 - Volcanoes…
Two volcanoes in Vanuatu, Gaua and Ambrym, emitted simultaneous plumes on
Sunday, June 6. Gaua emited a thick, tan plume that blew toward the southwest.
The plume’s color indicates the presence of volcanic ash. Ambrym emited a faint
plume that blew toward the south and appears blue-gray, probably because the
blue of the ocean shows through the nearly transparent plume. This plume’s pale
color suggests water vapor. Two red hotspots on Ambrym are associated with high
surface temperatures, and almost certainly result from volcanic activity.
June 9, 2010 - Volcanoes…
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology on Tuesday raised the
alert level status of Taal Volcano
from alert level 1 to alert level 2 as it is showing signs of possible
eruption. On its website, Phivolcs said it has noticed “anomalous change” since
the last week of April. Among its observations were increased and intensifying
volcanic earthquakes, including a low frequency type volcanic earthquake
detected on June 2; raised temperature in the main crater lake; raised ground
temperatures; intensified steaming of the main crater; and inflating of the
volcano. “The recorded high frequency volcanic earthquakes could be the result
of active rock fracturing associated with magma intrusion beneath the volcano.
The fractures served as passageways through which hot gases from the intruding
magma could escape into the main crater lake."
June
12, 2010 - Volcanoes… Gorely Volcano - In the Russian Far East,
Kamchatka’s Gorely volcano is spewing steam and ash again AFTER DECADES IN
DORMANCY. The plume has stretched to over a hundred kilometers, compromising
regional air travel and threatening disruption at a local geothermal power
plant. Mount
Gorely rises to about two kilometres above sea level. There are 11 craters on
it, one with a lake. The volcano’s average dormancy interval is close to 20
years.
June
14, 2010 - Volcanoes… Sarychev Volcano - Almost a year after it
spectacularly erupted, Sarychev Volcano showed more modest signs of activity on
June 11. Satellite images show apparent water vapor filling Sarychev’s summit
crater, forming an almost perfect circle of white. A much fainter, barely
discernible plume blows away from the summit toward the east. Sarychev Peak is
a stratovolcano and reaches a height of 4,908 feet. It forms the
highest point on Matua Island. This volcano ranks among the most active in the
Kuril Islands, which extend southwestward from the Kamchatka Peninsula.
June 15, 2010 - Volcanoes... Mount Ulawun Volcano - Disaster officials are on
alert as one of the country's highest active volcanoes shows signs of an
eruption. PNG's Mount Ulawun volcano in West New Britain province has been
emitting vapor over the last few weeks.
June 21, 2010 - Volcanoes... An
explosive eruption at Mt. Sakurajima in Kagoshima Prefecture on Sunday
afternoon was the 549th this year, a new annual record. A second explosive
eruption occurred later in the day, the 550th this year.
June 24-28, 2010 - Volcanoes… The Shiveluch volcano on the
Russian Kamchatka Peninsula has erupted, producing an ash plume of 6.5
kilometers. The northernmost active volcano on Kamchatka Peninsula is spewing
plumes of ash at a height of more than 6 kilometers. Mt. Shiveluch has been
erupting for many days now with 80 underground temblors registered in the past
24 hours alone.
