Yahoo News now says the death toll is nearing 12,000. This is an enormous tragedy.

I just got this off of Fox News' site. Is this a new one or aftershocks from the first one?

Powerful Tremor Jolts Bangladesh

Thank you for this information.
It is just awful! Makes me feel guilty. We've had a lot of snow and below-zero weather. My water pipes broke, and I was moaning & groaning about that. The horrible events on the other side of the word sure puts my pitiful problem into perspective!
BTW, I wonder if this quake has anything to do with the 8.1 quake at the South Pole?
Since I'm not spending much time online right now, I'd appreciate your putting me on your ping list for updates. Thanks.

Other Current Earthquakes / Largest-Ever Iceberg Hazard
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1308657/posts We're not affected directly here in Australia but I wonder whether there's a connection between this massive quake and the one which hit in between New Zealand, Tasmania and Macquarie Island to our south two days ago. It was the then biggest quake anywhere in the world so far this year. It seems more than a coincidence that this catastrophe comes so soon afterwards. Commiserations to everyone in the affected area.

An earthquake on a remote Antarctic archipelago home to 850,000 King Penguins was the strongest on earth in four years, seismologists say. The quake hit 400km (250 miles) off the Macquarie Islands on Friday, measuring 8.1 on the Richter scale.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1303779/posts WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- A remnant of the largest iceberg ever recorded is blocking Antarctica's McMurdo Sound, threatening tens of thousands of penguin chicks with starvation and cutting off a supply route for three science stations, according to a New Zealand official. The iceberg, known as B15A, measures about 1,200 square miles, said Lou Sanson, chief executive of the government scientific agency Antarctica New Zealand. He called it "the largest floating thing on the planet right now" and said U.S. researchers estimate it contains enough water to supply Egypt's Nile River complex for 80 years.
