Another reminder that Mother Nature will never be tamed, and will always be in control.

Must always respect her.

NHK is reporting more than 80 people dead, and reports are coming in saying that many more bodies have been discovered as I write. A ship with 100 aboard was washed away and has not been found, 1300 people remain trapped in Sendai airport, which is surrounded by water and debris from the tsunami.

Oh god! 2nd disaster will likely happen. They lost the control of the atomic reactor temperature at Fukushima nuclear power plant.

According to that article, the state of emergency is a precautionary step. I could be wrong, though.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you in Japan. Please be safe.

My wife was able to reach her parents over Skype. Fortunately everyone is safe.

Anyone in Niigata Prefecture? I was curious about the west coast.

The main cooler's been broken, so they legally have to go on alert, but there's no actual leak or nuclear threat being reported yet.
