China's earthquake
In China, Juyuan Middle School students were settling into their daily classes when their four-story classroom building collapsed, setting off a wave of tragedy and disbelief that was only beginning to sink in 24 hours later. Monday's magnitude-7.9 earthquake was etched across a devasting Juyuan. All but a handful of the more than 900 upper-class students were believed to be trapped under the slabs of cement, bricks, tile and twisted cables. Only one survivor has been found, a girl pulled free by a rescue team.
