Fukushima: Powerful earthquake rocks Japan weeks from disaster anniversary
More than 100 people have been injured after a powerful earthquake struck off the coast of Fukushima in Japan.
Saturday's 7.3-magnitude quake was felt strongly in Tokyo, but no tsunami warning was issued.
The quake came nearly a decade after an earthquake and tsunami killed over 18,000 people.
That tsunami caused a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant - the worst such incident since the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
"Surveys are being done at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear pant... We have received reports that Onagawa nuclear plant and Fukushima Daichi nuclear plant are not showing any abnormality," Chief Cabinet Secretary Katsunobu Kato said.

sorry I meant to say nuclear power plants

I second that Kim. It is madness.

You wouldn't believe the amount of nuke plants built along the San Andreas and the New Madrid faultlines here in the states. Last I heard there were 12 nuke plants up and down the Mississippi River and I heard there were four along the San Andreas. Obviously those who built these didn't care all they wanted were the profits.

I can't believe Japan built power plants with all the earthquakes(fault lines)!
That was vindicated in March 2011!
