S ome of the Earth's grandest mountains are composite volcanoes--sometimes called stratovolcanoes. They are typically steep-sided, symmetrical cones of large dimension built of alternating layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, cinders, blocks, and bombs and may rise as much as 8,000 feet above their bases. inder cones are the simplest type of volcano. They are built from particles and blobs of congealed lava ejected from a single vent. As the gas-charged lava is blown violently into the air, it breaks into small fragments that solidify and fall as cinders around the vent to form a circular or oval cone.
Otaku is a Japanese slang word, deriving from the honorific ããã (otaku), meaning your house, that has come to mean someone who obsessively exerts time, money, and energy into a hobby.
Despite these negative perceptions, Otaku has evolved to mean geek or nerd, almost always in a positive tone in the West. In the West, the word usually describes an anime or manga fanatic and is not typically perceived as vulgar. References
