Massive Earthquake hits Japan, death toll rising

So I woke up this morning only to find that one of my favorite countries struck by a devastating 8.9 magnitude Earthquake, the largest in Japan in 140 years. To be precise, the Earthquake occurred outside of northern Japan and caused a 32 feet Tsunami to wreak havoc in Sendai. So far the death count is expected to exceed 1,000 and continue to rise. My most sincere wishes goes out to those affected by this unfortunate disaster.

I refrained from posting any images since it may be disturbing to certain readers, but you can read more about it @ National Post .
