Default [OT] 7.2 Earthquake Near New Zealand

Unlurking to post that CNN's sending out breaking news updates of a
7.2 earthquake near Christchurch. The link at CNN.com points you to:

http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2010/09/03/usgs-7-4-magnitude-quake-hits-near-new-zealand/?hpt=T1&iref=BN1

which I'm having trouble opening now - think it might be getting
slammed. The story on the homepage begins "A 7.2-magnitude earthquake
has struck near New Zealand, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
Residents report damage from the quake, which hit at 4:35 a.m. local
time."

Here's an updated link that seems to be working better:

Didn't feel anything here, and no Tsunami warnings. However, we are not
NZ, and in the scheme of things, not that close (approximately the
distance between Miami & NYC)

Hope everything is OK over there.
