Just like to mention that a year has passed since the 3/11 earthquake that devastated Japan. Here are some excellent side-by-side images of how the rubble has been cleaned up and transformed in affected regions. Many have recuperated and returned to their usual lives, much of the damage has been cleared and the economy has steadily begun to pick up. A huge thanks to everybody for their support and assistance over the past year.

Listening to the BBC this morning about it. What a recovery in such time.

Because one revolution of the Earth about the sun has been completed, i.e. ~365 days.

My prayers go to the people in Japan.

Edited out some of the offensive comments, ShangMing there is no need for that kind of response here either.

Back on topic I am happy to see things are looking much better over there.

Very interesting.
That last picture actually hit my heart; happy things are working out there now.

oh look, another useless post.

How about instead of praying, you actually do something that helps?

I'm being an asshole, really?

I thought it would be more practical to actually, you know, donate money and do charity events than to "pray" to an imaginary man in the sky (or get my osu forums post count up).

I'm not too sure, but I think that those who actually did something last year made a bigger impact than the ones who stayed home on their computers and "prayed". Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

You are wrong. An Earth year is 365.26 days.

Ok, where can I send my imaginary money to?
I don't have any means to give money to them, if i did, I would.

I am not wrong, I clearly included "~", which means an estimate.

Anything else?

while praying does not help, preying on those praying doesn't either.

Good to know they're keeping up.
Pretty interesting pictures, haven't seen anything like this.
