This animation shows the movement of the ash plume from the eruption of the Eyjafjallajoekull glacier in Iceland.
The information has been derived by a model using SO2 as particle tracer for the ash plume. This model has been developed at the Norwegian Institute for Air Research in the Department of Atmospheric and Climate Research.

Ο κ. Μαρτάκος** με ενημέρωσε πως τέλειωσε η σύμβαση του τμήματος για το χαρτί τουαλέτας και πως είναι θέμα πρύτανη η υπογαφή καινούριας σύμβασης. Πήγα στον κ. Σφηκόπουλο*** και μου είπε πως θα ενημερώσει τον πρύτανη για να προβεί στις απαραίτητες κινήσεις.”

Portal‘s eerie symbolism was ramped up another notch this week when Valve announced a patch that has gamers playing what seems to be an alternate reality game within the platformer. The update to the game doesn’t seem to include much new content at first glance, but what has been added is clearly only the beginning of a much bigger trip down Valve’s latest rabbit hole.
Today’s announced update was accompanied by a short, cryptic note: “Changed radio transmission frequency to comply with federal and state spectrum management regulations.” When you next boot up the game, there is a radio in your cell that broadcasts morse code when you hold it and stand on the red button in the first level (as seen in the video below). It turns out there are a total of 26 different radios in the game now, and they all have morse code.
Enterprising Steam community members rooted around the game files and discovered a new group called “dinosaur” that contained a ton of morse code audio, as well as some images that seemed to be corrupted by strange data.
