Well about half of the North Sea used to be above water and the Scilly Isles used to be all joined together & possibly joined to Cornwall.

Japanese officials fear a meltdown at a nuclear power plant hit by Friday's earthquake after radioactive material was detected outside it.

A Palestinian has killed five Israelis in an attack on a Jewish settlement in the West Bank, Israel's military says.

The five were members of the same family, a couple and three children, according to Israeli media reports.

The overnight attack occurred in the Itamar settlement, near Nablus in the northern West Bank. The Israeli army is now searching the area for the suspect.

The incident comes as peace efforts between Israel and the Palestinians have ground to a halt.

The family - including a baby and children aged 11 and three - were stabbed to death, Israeli media reported.
