Mount Pelee Information\nMount Pelee is a lava dome volcano. Mount Pelee, on the Carribbean island of Martinique, is one of about a dozen recently active volcanoes in the 700 kilometer long Lesser Antilles island arc, formed as result of westward subduction of oceanic crust of the South American plate under the oceanic crust of the small Carribean plate.\n\nMartinique was a prosperous French colony at the time of the 1902 eruption. The town of St. Pierre had a population of over 20000, and was located 6 kilometers to the south of the peak of Pelee, a volcano had that a mild eruption in 1851 with little significant damage. On April 25, 1902, minor explosive eruptions started and the following days saw a steady increase in activity. By May 3rd, there were frequent loud explosions from Mt. Pelee and substantial amounts of ash were accumulating in the streets of St. Pierre. On May 5th, a very large mudflow originating from the crater of Mt. Pelee swept down the valley of Riviere Blanche, to the north of St. Pierre. Although many of the residents of St. Pierre attempted to leave the town, the city administration actively discouraged them from doing so, and evacuees from the surrounding country side had swelled the population of the town by May 8th. \n\nAt 7:50 local time on May 8th, a series of deafening explosions were heard from Mt. Pelee, and a huge black cloud issued from the summit of the volcano. The cloud, known as a nuee ardente, or pyroclastic flow, of searing superheated gas and incandescent volcanic ash and dust rushed down the southern and southeastern slopes of Mt. Pelee, and within two minutes (the clocks in the town stopped at 7:52), swept over and engulfed St. Pierre. It set the town ablaze, and killed by intense heat, all but 2 of the population. Masonry walls one meter thick were blown down by the blast, and a 3-ton statue was moved 16 meters! The only survivors were a prisoner in the town jail and a man from a part of town on the fringe of the nuee ardente. A number of ships at anchor off St. Pierre were also devastated, the crew on deck killed and ships caught on fire. \n\nThe eruption continued after May 8th, and on May 20th, a second powerful pyroclastic flow hit St. Pierre, but the damage had already been done by the first cloud. On August 3rd, another pyroclastic flow engulfed the village of Morne Rouge and 2000 people died in almost identical circumstances to those in St. Pierre. The eruption continued well into 1903. Mt. Pelee erupted in 1792 and 1851 but did no damage.

C'est le Stade Toulousain comme indiqué sur le site de la Ligue Nationale de Rugby : "Le club de la fin de siècle. Nanti du plus beau palmarès du rugby français, le Stade Toulousain a conquis huit de ses quinze Bouclier de Brennus depuis 1985, réalisant au passage de 1994 à 1997 un quadruplé unique à ce jour (pour l'après guerre)."

I was there two weeks ago and did the helifishing from the Station Township at El Questro.  Thoroughly recommend it - 16 barramundi and 4 catfish.  Plus awesome views, plus fighting off the crocs!  Awesome!!!  Obviously couldn;'t keep all the barra due to size limit.\n\nAnywhere on the Pentecost River is good fishing

I'd give you the 10 points if I could.
