Aftershocks Rattle Japan; Rescuers Search Coast

Japan continues to report strong aftershocks following the most powerful earthquake in its modern history. Teams of emergency workers, including soldiers and volunteers, are still looking for survivors along the hardest hit areas of Japan's northeastern coast. In addition, reporter Doualy Xaykaothao says an estimated 170,000 people have been evacuated in the Fukushima prefecture to avoid exposure to radiation from nuclear reactors at a power plant.
