Growin' all the time. It remains to be seen if the new island will stick around though.

Volcanic eruption creates new island south of Japan ? Japan Today: Japan News and Discussion

"A volcanic eruption has raised an island in the seas to the far south of Tokyo, the Japanese coast guard and earthquake experts said Thursday.

Advisories from the coast guard and the Japan Meteorological Agency said the islet is about 200 meters in diameter. It is just off the coast of Nishinoshima, a small, uninhabited island in the Ogasawara chain, which is also known as the Bonin Islands."
