    This is horrible.. Natural disasters of this scale are always devastating and there's not much we can do to prevent or stop them (ie. as opposed to uprising of men).

    God bless Japan..

    Some unbelievable pics and videos.

    I read an article about the Moon getting closer to Earth (March 19, Full Moon). This may cause earthquakes and Tsunamis and other natural disaster. We know the Moon has some affects but how much of it is true?

    I amazed by the power of mother nature, it's scary at times but we'll see the toughness of the human spirit in these situations all the time.

    You know, the incredible and ironic aspect of this disaster overall is the Japanese themselves and how they regard tsunamis and earthquakes; if anything, as a people, they are likely the most prepared society in the world to face such natural calamities. Nonetheless, it is still very shocking to see entire swaths of civilization being swallowed by a rapid rolling wave of churning debris. My heart certainly goes out to them.

    [HIDE]General statics and news:
    - 8,4 Million people are said to have no electricity in Tokyo alone. Numbers of the entire country is not yet to be confirmed.
    - Entire villages are swept away. A lot of old people live and work there, most of them are too old to escape.
    - Even in Europe they were able to measure the quake.
    - For now the number of deaths is pending around the 60, it's night in Japan now so the official numbers will take a raise tomorrow. The number of missing people is still raising even now.
    - It wasn't the power of the earthquake that caused so much trouble, it was the following Tsunami.
    - After shocks of the quake can take months.
    - The United Nations have a team of 30 rescue teams ready.
    - Not only Japan, but also the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hawaii and America are said to be evacuated.
    - Almost 300 bodies just washed on the shore of Sendai.
    - Number of deaths still counting. Said to be over 600 now.[/HIDE]

    I heard there were about 20 aftershocks (maybe even more) at least 6.0.

    Seeing the pictures are already pretty terrible. But the videos... that's just heart breaking. Thoughts and prays to everyone in Japan.
