"At this point, we know that one GPS station moved (8 feet), and we have seen a map from GSI (Geospatial Information Authority) in Japan showing the pattern of shift over a large area is consistent with about that much shift of the land mass," said Kenneth Hudnut, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).

"Reports from the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology in Italy estimated the 8.9-magnitude quake shifted the planet on its axis by nearly 4 inches (10 centimeters).

"The temblor, which struck Friday afternoon near the east coast of Japan, killed hundreds of people, caused the formation of 30-foot walls of water that swept across rice fields, engulfed entire towns, dragged houses onto highways, and tossed cars and boats like toys. Some waves reached six miles (10 kilometers) inland in Miyagi Prefecture on Japan's east coast.

The quake occurred as the Earth's crust ruptured along an area about 250 miles (400 kilometers) long by 100 miles (160 kilometers) wide, as tectonic plates slipped more than 18 meters, said Shengzao Chen, a USGS geophysicist."

"It swept inland about six miles (10 kilometers) in some areas, swallowing boats, homes, cars, trees and everything else."

"The tsunami was unbelievably fast," said Koichi Takairin, a 34-year-old truck driver who was inside his sturdy four-ton rig when the wave hit the port town of Sendai."

Another article said that the tsunami was moving at about 500 mph, the speed of a jetliner.

Compared to what's coming, this was a relatively small tsunami.  If you are on or near a coastline, you need to evacuate NOW!

I posted some recall I had from last night earlier today at https://earthchanges.ning.com/profiles/blogs/all-contactees-take-note-some.  I'll post it again here:

[I seemed to be up in the air looking down.]  I saw flat land.  [I seemed to be down the coast (south) from the plant.] There was a watery bluish color to the air (meaning it was daylight).  The below image was taken before the explosion.  The explosion occurred in the afternoon, Japanese time.  [See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ3IgHQuCBM&feature=player_embedded starting around 0:23 for the bluish color]: 

Off in the distance I saw what looked like puffs of cloud or smoke that were increasing in size [ground based].  The distance was further away than the second picture below, kind of like being not far from the horizon, but the timing was more like the first image, which appeared to be the first fireball, with subsequent ones just beginning to rise, which expanded rapidly.  But the color of the first fireball was more like the second picture, but tinted blue. 

My attention was drawn to it.  It felt like a bad thing was happening at first but then something like relief suddenly flowed from those clouds.  My sense is that a disaster was allowed to start so that it could provide something necessary so that a worser disaster could be averted by unseen forces.

[In another scene] I continued seeing very flat land, the same watery blue color, the color and light were like being near water in the early morning.  From the middle of this land rose a very tall, flat building that looked like the UN, but the surrounding landscape was definitely not DC.  I gathered [the building] was symbolic rather than real.  I sensed that it wasn't just the nations of the Earth gathering there, but a gathering of galactic worlds as well.

[In another scene, I also had recall of an alien.  Loosely, he resembled General Akbar in Star Wars.  However, his head was taller (longer) and his eyes were higher and not so far to the sides (but larger than human eyes), there were three boney protuberances between his eyes, but his skin color was that bronze-ish/brownish color.  I suspect George Lucas had seen one of his kind when he casted Star Wars. "General Akbar" seemed to be a physician and was healing someone's hand aboard a spacecraft.  I felt a lot of affinity for this being.  He was old and very wise.]

I had asked for some confirmation (which usually doesn't happen) but this time, much to my amazement and delight, it did.  After posting the above, I found this article:  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_japan_earthquake, that said:

"Edano said an explosion caused by vented hydrogen gas destroyed the exterior walls of the building where the reactor is, but not the actual metal housing enveloping the reactor."  [The explosion allowed to happen to help mitigate worse affects?]

"Edano said the radiation around the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant had not risen after the blast, but had in fact decreased. He did not say why that was so. [This bolded line has been removed from some articles with no explanation, but was in the original Yahoo article.]  He added that pressure decreased after the blast.  [Again, an explosion allowed to happen (or caused?) to enable radiation and pressure to decrease?]

"The explosion was preceded by puff of white smoke that gathered intensity until it became a huge cloud enveloping the entire facility, located in Fukushima, 20 miles (30 kilometers) from Iwaki. After the explosion, the walls of the building crumbled, leaving only a skeletal metal frame."

The yahoo link is no longer good, but here are some others:  http://www.delcotimes.com/general-news/20110311/japan-quake-explosion-rocks-nuke-plant-meltdown-fears-ease and http://www.wbur.org/2011/03/12/japan and http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/03/12/shaking-smoke-seen-japanese-nuclear-plant-facing-possible-meltdown/.

In these next three links, the line "He did not say why that was so." was missing:  http://www.news-herald.com/general-news/20110311/updated-blast-at-japan-nuke-plant-thousands-missing, http://www.guelphmercury.com/news-story/2706786-explosion-at-japan-nuke-plant-disaster-toll-rises/, http://archive.rgj.com/article/20110312/news12/110312001/Explosion-Japan-nuke-plant-disaster-toll-rises-watch-video-reports-.  Lends weight that it was an unusual event that radiation decreased. 

FOLKS, I sense that our meditation (as well as many others around the world) played a part in averting what could have been a horrible catastrophe! 

UPDATE 03/13/011:

Coast moved 8 feet, earth's rotation sped up 1.6 microseconds.

It "...caused a rupture 186 miles long and 93 miles wide in the sea floor 80 miles off the eastern coast of Japan. It happened 15 miles beneath the sea floor. The force of the quake was so strong that it moved the island of Honshu 8 feet to the east, said USGS geophysicist Ken Hudnut. It sped up the Earth's rotation by 1.6 microseconds, according to NASA.

"The quake struck at a depth of six miles, about 80 miles off the eastern coast, Japan’s meteorological agency said. The area is 240 miles (380km) north east of Tokyo."

http://e.nikkei.com/e/fr/tnks/Nni20110311D11JFA11.htm

"The major earthquake that struck northeastern Japan on Friday had the hallmarks of an interplate quake, which occurs at the boundary between two tectonic plates."

"At the area near the epicenter, the North American plate, on which part of the Japanese archipelago lies, slips under the Pacific plate. The temblor was likely triggered when the North American plate snapped upward, releasing the accumulated strain.

"The earthquake occurred near the site of another tremor that shook Miyagi Prefecture on Wednesday, so the earlier quake may have been a foreshock, according to the Japan Meteorological Agency.

"There aren't many instances in which such a large earthquake occurs right after a magnitude 7-class quake," said an official at the agency. "This is a highly unusual case.

"The agency warns that aftershocks registering around magnitude 7 could take place over the next month.

...

"The plate may have shifted over a stretch of several hundred kilometers along the fault on Friday, according to the agency, with some experts putting the figure at upwards of 400-500km."

http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20110311/WIRE/110319867/-1/features?p=2&tc=pg

"The quake was caused when one giant tectonic plate was shoved under another, the type of movement that produces the biggest earthquakes. It's the same kind of quake that caused the devastating 2004 Indonesian tsunami.

...

"The quake happened at the intersection of the North American and Pacific plates in the northwestern chunk of the "Ring of Fire," in an area that "has been incredibly quiet," Applegate said."

For those not contactees, start sending positive energy to Japan by way of light, love, prayers, whatever means at your disposal.  Everybody can help!

"Scientists warned that the first tsunami waves are not always the strongest, and officials said people in Hawaii and along the West Coast should remain vigilant. Tsunami warnings continued in California and Oregon, but were downgraded to an advisory in Hawaii, and Gov. Neil Abercrombie said the islands were "fortunate almost beyond words."
