Monday Musings: Titan's ice volcanism, Merapi and the moon, Toba wasn't so bad and Shiveluch's plume

Now that AGU is behind us and that I've waded through a lot of grading (over the weekend: 4 sets of labs and one each of papers and homework), I can try to catch back up with piles of news. Oddly, a lot of this news was generated by press conferences or talks at AGU, which I suppose is what to expect when a big conference like AGU occurs.
