Not much new to report about the eruption at Redoubt beyond the fact that it continues. AVO has kept the warning level at Red/Warning after briefly dropping it to Orange/Watch on Friday night. The 15,000 foot / 5 km-tall plume on Sunday was mostly water and volcanic gases. Eagle-eyed observers also noticed a plume on the lower flanks on the north side of the volcano that is believed to be steam generated by block & ash flows interacting with snow or water. These flow block & ash flows are coming from the crumbling new dome forming below the 1989-90 domes.

No data so far from the gas flight AVO planned for Sunday, however we do have some sulfur dioxide data showing the plume from Redoubt heading out over the Pacific as of 4/4/2009 from the OMI satellite. There is a lot of chatter about the potential climate effects of the Redoubt eruption and so far there has been very little data to actually make any statements. However, the eruption, so far, has been fairly small in the great scheme of volcanic eruptions (lets say versus Pinatubo in 1991 or El Chichon in 1982) but once we have an idea of the sulfur and carbon dioxide output we can begin to model any potential atmospheric effect.

The ash fall from Redoubt (see above) is beginning to make national news as the winds blow it into more populated areas. So far, the ash has been nothing but a nuisance, but people have a low threshold for nuisances on the whole. It doesn’t stop folks from saying things like:

I would like it to have a big boom and get it over with…

To that I say: be careful what you wish for. It will be interesting to see how people cope with intermittent ash fall for a few months. CNN is even reporting on AVO’s use of Twitter to inform the public on Redoubt’s activity, albeit 3 months after AVO started.

    that little bird (finch?) in the photo looks decidedly befuddled…

    intermittent, low-level ash fall for a few months won’t be in the news long, i should think. it’ll be a nuisance, to be certain, but so long as that’s all that happens, folks will learn to cope and get on with it. (the “one big boom”, i’d guess, would be much harder to deal with.) how does wildlife tend to adjust to such events, i wonder?

    If you at the moment have no personalized experiences to share, then go find someone who does. Go to many MLM web sites or on the net advertising and marketing blogs, and see which sort they’re writing down. Read via their posts till you come towards a distribute that may assist someone doing over the internet MLM promotional (including yourself). The submit could be about how to enquire persons for enterprise (a necessity for any company on or offline). Or maybe you are inspired by an unusual MLM statistic or perhaps a joke about MLM (they’ve got lots about lawyers, why not MLMers?). Whatsoever inspires you, write about it. You can easily paraphrase what’s you have read and then add your own comments. All the time give appropriate credit to the original author, of course, and include a link to the author’s website. Numerous of my favourite blogs for getting secrets and techniques are:

    This actually applies to all the energy guides featured on our site. Eventhough it is extremely attainable to get completely off the grid with these plans – ie. generate enough electricity to energy every part of your property – you ought to scale up. So, depending on your household’s average energy consumption, and typical hours of sunshine and wind speed, you will most likely would need to make multiple solar/wind power system to have the preferred results.

    A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin, 5, and Ryan, 3. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson. If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, “Let my brother have the first pancake. I can wait.”Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, “Ryan, you be Jesus.”

    It takes more thought to come up with a good blog comment then a bad one. For instance, it takes much less brain effort to say “you suck” than to say “I profoundly disagree with the simplistic drivel that has been touted on this networked opinion delivery system.” As evidenced by the number of moronic comments that are left on various blogs, it appears that the majority of blog readers have the cranial capacity of cattle who spend a lot of time defecating in the same pool they drink from.

    Further, I notice that the press release states that all pledges will be collected by the Players Association (and not the symphony) and processed through the Community Foundation (again not the symphony). Since this blog has repeatedly stressed the importance of intelligent marketing of an orchestras product (mainly concerts) to the wide base of potential consumers, I will be very interested to see how the data that is raised is used to determine how many of these donors are presently orchestra subscribers/donors? To those donors that are not regular patrons, which party to this dispute and resolution will be entrusted with trying to maximize the donors potential in the future?

    Given that our information on sexual assault cases is always colored by the media, by attorneys trying to portray their clients as just caught up in someone else’s mess/the other person is a slut, bitch/chauvinist, pig why not simply enact gag rules around any such case, forbid the release of accused and accuser’s personal information, and resolve the matter according to the legal process We know that sometimes, the accusations are false, and sometimes, they aren’t. But the harsh glare of the spotlight doesn’t make actually digging the truth out of these things any easier.

    Virtually all of whatever you claim happens to be astonishingly precise and that makes me wonder the reason why I hadn’t looked at this in this light before. Your article truly did switch the light on for me personally as far as this subject goes. Nonetheless at this time there is actually one particular factor I am not really too comfy with and whilst I try to reconcile that with the actual central idea of the point, permit me observe just what the rest of the subscribers have to point out.Nicely done.
