Earthquake In New Zealand

Mr Parker told the BBC that the magnitude of the destruction had only now dawned on the city's 386,000 residents.
"It's now into the third day since the quake and that initial adrenalin has been replaced by a great deal of tiredness," he said.
New Zealand lies at the southern end of the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire, and above an area of the Earth's crust where the Pacific Plate converges with the Indo-Australian Plate.
The country experiences more than 14,000 earthquakes a year, of which only about 20 have a magnitude in excess of 5.0.
