It's now time for a story that restores your faith in mankind, even if it means going all the way to Japan to find it: In the five months since that country's devastating quake and tsunami, almost $78 million in cash has been found amongst the wreckage and turned in.

It's now been ten days since Japan's massive earthquake and tsunami, and police are estimating that an incomprehensible 18,000 people were killed in the disaster. Meanwhile, the worst may be over at the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, though higher levels of radioactivity have been detected in spinach…

It's been a week since Japan was devastated by a 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami. And while we thought we'd seen the worst tsunami footage, this new video—of the wave destroying the port city of Miyako—is simply terrifying.

There aren't many options left for the nuclear crisis at Japan's Fukushima plant. There may be no more water to cool the no. 4 reactor, leaving the rods indefinitely exposed and certain to melt down. The Japanese emperor, who is "deeply concerned," has made a rare address to the public. Meanwhile, bankers are hogging…

The good news, which is not really "good" news much at all, is that Japan's Fukushima nuclear reactors didn't all fully melt down in the last 12 hours.

It's Tuesday morning in Japan now, and the country's damaged nuclear reactors still face the prospect of melting down. The desperate move to cool overheated fuel rods with seawater has run into some problems. The death toll is above 10,000. As if this weren't enough, estimates are already trickling in for the…

Another explosion hit the Fukushima Daichi nuclear power plant, injuring six as authorities scramble to cool the nuclear reactors and contain a partial meltdown three days after the facility was devastated in a massive earthquake and resultant tsunami. Elsewhere in the northeast, thousands of bodies were found washed…

Friday's 8.9 magnitude earthquake in Japan triggered a tsunami that has wiped out large areas of the northern part of the country. Here is a computer animation that explains how tsunamis are formed.

Indonesia's Mount Merapi volcano erupted again today — the biggest one yet — for several hours but no injuries were reported. Mount Merapi is one of 22 volcanoes being closely monitored for increased activity. Indonesia just can't catch a break.

Now along with the Mount Merapi volcano in Indonesia, there's another volcano spewing ash and terrifying residents: Anak Krakatau. The volcano is currently on Level 2 alert. And two other Indonesian volcanoes are one level below a full alert.

That scary Tsunami that scared me and made CNN's Rick Sanchez freak out? Yup, it's canceled. Also, don't worry, the cast of Lost is going to be okay. Even the fat one. Also, stick around! More fun to come tonight.
