Eating a slice on the run can be messy, so food scientists have cooked up a new conical concept that is catching on in Europe and will soon hit the U.S. This summer Konopizza expects to open shops in Indonesia, Kuwait, Spain and Greece.

Seismometers are used to measure harmonic tremor around the volcano, a series of highly rhythmic shock waves associated with the motion of magma inside or beneath the cone. In Hawaii, a harmonic tremor lasting for some four to five minutes nearly always precedes...
