Support for the Japanese Earthquake Victims

We had our first perfectly beautiful day in several weeks yesterday.  But In light of the Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan yesterday, I just couldn't write about how great a day it was here, when such a huge disaster happened to the people of Japan.  It seemed very insensitive.  

I write a lot of light and fun pieces, but I also address world and other issues.  After all, we are all of the same community of man.  So instead, I am posting more ways to help and possibly find missing loved ones for my Japanese readers and those of you who may know someone there.  

Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to them.  Please help in any way that you can.  I am providing more information to provide support.
