Hokkaido Earthquake July 16?

Earthquake Questions
There was a Hokkaido earthquake around 11:20 p.m. Japan time on July 16 — earlier in the day, there was one in Niigata which was quite destructive. Was the Hokkaido earthquake related to that, or pretty much a seperate event?
Also, where does one go on the internet to find news about very recent earthquakes in Japan? I know the TV stations broadcast info about earthquakes and tsunami, but if I miss the announcement, I’ve been having a hard time finding the right words to put in the search engine. Japanese sites are OK.
BTW, I tried USGS, but they didn’t have it right away.
Try the USGS, Mr. Man. They have a world map that shows some of the recent strong earthquakes. It looks like there have been a lot this year — but mostly around the Pacific Plate, only a few scattered in other areas. However, it looks like they don’t show *all* the earthquakes. They ask people to report earthquakes not shown on the map. Good luck!
Was talking to friends from the midwest and was suprised to learn they didnt know the greatest danger of loss of life in the USA is along the New Madird Fault.AKA The Mississippi Valley see image

It was a minor quake and I know Illinois is at high risk for them, and not just because of the New Madrid Fault but many other ones too. It was a little shake and last year I hear a sonic boom and the power went out, so if you did feel the quake that just happened right now go here: http://pasadena.wr.usgs.gov/shake/cus/html/unknown_form.html

I don’t care how big or how little you think it is; I’m not in San Fran – I’m in Seattle. I wanted to know if you felt it, and if you did, you should fill out the form to help them be better understood.

Earthquake Questions
We keep having earthquakes, but whenever I go online to check with USGS on the magnitude, they are never listed. These are definitely earthquakes because I can even hear the ceiling and occasionally the trees sway and the house moves in a jolt, so what's going on? Why doesn't the USGS have a censor in this area?
