I doubt there are any survivors buried under the rubble. Hopefully those who can wait for rescuers can take some timber and build a fire to keep warm. It may also create a signal for rescue.
My prayers go to them and their family!

I hear the design was by GE, American. It was an old plant and was likely to be retired in the next 5 years as the new plant was to be brought on line.

Japan "won" against the quake. It "lost" big against the tsunami.

@MrDog Customers don't want to be identified because it could create buying competition and/or shortage of supply.
Comparisons are not necessary to the public, as the customers are corporate buyers.

The "kaere, aho" guy should have been wrapped in a straight jacket and sent to the funny farm for a long evaluation. That would teach him.

Put strict controls on guns, and let the people have their toys.
*Make wannabe owners have to go through strict licensing processes, classes, and safety training.
*Make current owners register their guns and get licensed.
*Force gun manufactures to increase technology so guns cannot be used by anyone but the owner (yes, it is possible).
You are naive if you think you can pry away guns from the American mind and culture. Gun sales are WAY UP after this most recent incident. Why? People are afraid their right to own guns might be threatened in the near future.
If I had a choice, I would eliminate all guns. Unfortunately, they are in the USA to stay...

Makes me relieved that this will never happen in my family. My kids KNOW to put on their seat belt when they get into a car. If they don't have it on when the car starts moving they scream "Wait!"
Japan has a seatbelt law for kids. I still cannot understand why it is not strictly enforced.

In order to teach a classic, it must be censored. I suppose next they will censor books on Marxism or the like with ideas that do not conform to the norm.
I agree with Powers quote:
** Note that I couldn't post the quote properly because it contained the "N" word

Tragic for everyone involved.
I remember my 20s and driving fast and reckless. Thank goodness it never ended the same way as this young man.
The poor grandparents, I cannot imagine their pain.

Manufacturing is suffering because jobs are going overseas. I do not see how cutting corp taxes will increase domestic production or increase consumer spending for DOMESTIC product. Instead, the govt should make incentives for new businesses in the service sector or manufacturing in hi-tech.

On Monday AM there was an guy talking on his phone in the train. Then his phone rang, he answered, and told the person that he can't talk because he is on the train. Attention monger!
