All is one, Pray for Japan - Shock, Northeastern Japan Earthquake, Tsunami ( March 11, to 16’ 2011)

This is unbelievable. 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit the Pacific Ocean nearby Northeastern Japan at around 2:46pm on March 11 (JST) causing widespread damage with blackouts, fire and gigantic tsunami. I’ve never heard of such a huge earthquake. It was magnitude 9.0 !! Early information stated as 8.8 but after further review Japan corrected it to 9.0 . It seems that Miyagi was hit the hardest, then Fukushima, Iwate, Aomori, IbaragI , Chiba ( in the pacific coast area ), Yamagata, Niigata, Nagano, Kanagawa, Saitama.. According to an earthquake specialist, this is 180 times bigger than Hanshin ( Kobe ) earthquake ( Magnitude 7.3) which happened in 1995. And it only occurs once every 1,000 years. And seems like aftershock earthquakes 5.0 to 6.5 magnitude have been continuing. North side of Nagano on March 12, Miyagi , Nagano on March 13, south side of IbaragI on March 14, and also another big one magnitude 6.4 hit east side of Shizuoka area where there is Mt.Fuji
