There she blows, literally.

A massive and violent blast from Shinmoedake, a volcano  in Japan, has broken windows  at least five to 10 miles away from the location, and "Mother Nature"has sent volcano experts into a lather.

The major eruption just took place a couple of hours ago.

So far their are reports that buildings were showered with glass and the volcano threw out huge clouds of ash and gas.

Thousands of people have already fled their homes.  Shinmoedake is located at the peak on Mount Kirishima, the location of the 1967 James Bond movie You Only Live Twice.  That was one of the BEST BOND flicks of all time.

"Volcanologists" (yep, love them guys and gals) have warned of more large blasts and possible lava flows in this entire region.


It is the first major activity at Shinmoedake in 52 years.You know we have our earthquakes here in Southern California, and Volcano's are now exploding left and right all over the world as of late, including Iceland.

Map
Volcanic debris, including hot ash and rocks, was sent more than 2,000m (6,500ft) into the air; fine ash clouds have continued to rain down on the area.  Domestic flights in and out of Miyazaki - about 950km (590 miles) south-west of Tokyo - were grounded last week. Train services and schools have also been affected.

Los Angeles

What the heck was former USC Trojan defensive end Everson Griffen thinking early Monday night right around sundown.

Griffen was arrested and had to be "Tazed" to subdue him after he "allegedly" assaulted a Los Angeles Police Officer during a plain old stupid traffic stop.  He is in deep crap tonight, and could be sitting in jail for at least a day or so.

Griffen is now a member of the Minnesota Vikings.  He was an amazing standout player for the Trojans during the 2007, 2008 and 09 gridiron seasons.  The 23 year old was taken into custody at around 4 p.m. on Monday at the area of 30th Street and Hoover.

WTH?  Trojan arrested?
Here is what went down:

Griffen get's pulled over by an LAPD Squad car around the USC campus.

Apparently, while officers were conducting their "standard" investigation, the brawny Griffen flew off the handle and tried to run away from officers.

Dumb move dude.  

So, if you had to deal with a huge professional football player, how do you bring him down?

Break out the handy dandy taser, and voila, Griffen was stunned, stuffed and cuffed and place in the back of a squad car and now faces various felony charges.

Apparently Griffen didn't have a "valid" California Drivers License, got freaked out after he was pulled over, and decided to make a run for it.  

So, what can Griffen except during the next few hours?
