12,000 dead, missing in quake-hit Japan
Hours before the world's third-largest economy opened for business on Monday, a grim-faced Prime Minister Naoto Kan described the crisis as Japan's worst since 1945.
The death toll in Japan's earthquake and tsunami will likely exceed 10,000 in one state alone, an official said Sunday, as millions of survivors were left without drinking water, electricity and proper food along the pulverized north-eastern coast.

Chile, Earthquake, nine days later
-->
Nine days after an 8.8-magnitude
earthquake killed hundreds of people in south-central Chile, relief
efforts were beginning to reach those in need, rescue missions became
recovery missions, and rebuilding is already under way. In the days
since the February 27th quake, nearly 150 aftershocks have been
recorded, including thirteen above magnitude 6.0. The government has
been criticized by Chileans, who say the response was slow and
inefficient. One recent government action was to grant a short amnesty
to looters before sending troops out in search of stolen goods. Nearly
$2 million worth of looted items were returned, often dumped on
roadsides, by Sunday. Collected here are photographs from the past week
in quake-affected Chile.

Earthquake in Chile( a devastating magnitude 8.8-one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded)
At 3:34 am local time, February 27th, a devastating magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck Chile, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded. According to Chilean authorities, over 400 people are now known to have been killed. The earthquake also triggered a Tsunami which is right now propagating across the Pacific Ocean, due to arrive in Hawaii in hours (around 11:00 am local time). The severity of the Tsunami is still not known, but alerts are being issued across the Pacific.
