  Volcano   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
For other meanings of the word eruption, see eruption (disambiguation)'' ---- A volcano is a geological landform (usually a mountain) where magma (rock of the earth's interior made molten or liquid by high pressure and temperature) erupts through the surface of the planet.
Although there are numerous volcanoes (some very active) on the solar system's rocky planets and moons, on Earth at least, this phenomenon tends to occur near the boundaries of the continental plates.
Perhaps the most conspicuous part of a Volcano is the crater, a basin of a roughly circular form within which occurs a vent (or vents) from which magma erupts as gases, lava, and ejecta.

 Web of lies? Historical knowledge on the Internet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
This disambiguation problem is one of the thorniest issues of information retrieval and data mining in computer science.
Despite the importance of the disambiguation problem, it is not a problem of the quality of historical information on the Web but rather of the sophistication of the tools—like H-Bot—for mining that information.
H-Bot’s difficulties with these nine distant misses and the five completely wrong answers were again due, in this case almost entirely, to disambiguation issues—for example, the ability to understand when a question about Frederick III refers to the Holy Roman Emperor (1415–93), the Elector of Saxony (1463-1525), or the King of Denmark and Norway (1609-1670).

Some reasons cited for this are its perceived lack of meaning, sterility, ugliness, uniformity, and psychological effects.
The architectural profession responded to this partly by attempting a more populist architecture at the visual level, even if at the expense of sacrificing depth for shallowness, a direction called Postmodernism.
Robert Venturi's contention that a "decorated shed" (an ordinary building which is functionally designed inside and embellished on the outside) was better than a "duck" (a building in which the whole form and its function are considered together) gives an idea of this approach.
