Costa Rica Recovering From Earthquake

The country of Costa Rica suffered remarkably little damage from Wednesday's magnitude-7.6 quake — a few blocked highways, some collapsed houses and one death, of a heart attack caused by fright. Officials credited the relatively deep location of the quake and building codes that Costa Rican officials call as strict as those in California and Japan.

The quake was 25 miles below the surface. Tremors that occur deep underground tend to be less damaging, but their shaking can be felt over a wider area.

The quake was followed by three strong aftershocks of magnitudes above 4.

Costa Rica's anti-earthquake structural codes have been updated in line with the latest international standards three times since they were enacted in 1974, most recently last year.

Yes, some houses were damaged, and some landslides blocked roads, but with only one death. the country seems to have escaped a bigger disaster.

The last deadly quake to strike Costa Rica was in 2009, when 40 people died in a magnitude-6.1.

Naked Man Appears During TV Interview

A naked man has interrupted an interview on US television.

Couple Eva Halpain and John Manassel were conducting an interview about the damage to their home after a tree recently fell on it when the man appeared.

The interview outside the pair's home in Benton, Arkansas was suddenly interrupted when Manassel spotted the wandering man appear out of the bushes.

He suddenly says: "What is this out there that we got?"

The film crew then turn to show the nude man wandering casually up to them.

Manassel proceeds to ask his partner's son if he knows the man.

He then angrily suggests that he should "start an ass-kicking contest".

Police say the man, identified as 22-year-old Nathaniel Koba, was high on drugs when he walked out of the woods.

At the end of the video, Koba is seen being arrested by police. He has since been charged with public intoxication and indecent exposure.

If you search for the vid on Youtube it's somewhere on there.
