Guys,

we need prayers for the recent Earthquake and Tsunami disasters in Japan. The very strong earthquake has a rippling tsunami effect to the Philippines and other surrounding areas.

Heres some Al Jazeera coverage of the earthquake with helicopter footage of the tsunami.


Looks horrible, entire houses were being carried by the water like they were leaves. So far the death total is just at 32, which is incredibly low, but that number is sure to rise. Japan's worst previous quake was in 1923 in Kanto, an 8.3-magnitude temblor that killed 143,000 people, according to USGS. A 7.2-magnitude quake in Kobe city in 1996 killed 6,400 people.



My prayers go out to Japan.

It was an 8.9 which is the worst one ever recorded for Japan and the 6th highest recorded worldwide.

You can check live news from reuter. I'm sure if you check their homepage you'll be able to get other news.

Youtube live coverage is quite well-done...
Its' terrible news but I want to see the after-effects as the Indonesian countries and other nearby countries are said to be in quite danger.
Even evacuations are expected there xd as waves may hit anytime...

Japan's state is already so terrible, so I hope that'll be it for today...
the last time I heard, it said that 44 were dead and 39 are said missing!
