Northern Japan Rocked

Japan has once again made world news; this time with a large earthquake which rocked northern Japan.  The 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck at 8:43 am on Saturday in Iwate Prefecture and killed at least 6 people and injured scores more.  On the Japanese scale, the quake measured 6 out of 7.  I felt the quake all the way down in Yokohama and figured it was a big one based on its long duration.
