Christchurch,New Zealand Earthquake


Tuesday's 6.3-magnitude quake, the second powerful temblor to hit Christchurch in five months, toppled the spire of the city's historic stone cathedral, flattened tall buildings and sent chunks of concrete and bricks hurtling onto cars, buses and pedestrians below.

The quake even shook off a massive chunk of ice from New Zealand's biggest glacier some some 120 miles (190 kilometers) to the east.
