Hawaii rattled by volcanic eruptions and earthquakes

Hawaii is on alert after the Big Island is rattled by volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.  The island felt its biggest earthquake since 1975 yesterday, when a magnitude-6.9 quake struck near the south slope of the Kilauea volcano. More seismic activity is expected today.  Kilauea, meanwhile, is oozing lava from several large fissures, forcing nearby residents to evacuate.
