Quake brought about 'big family'

SENDAI, Japan - Evacuees relax in the living room of a house in Shiroishi, Miyagi Prefecture, on March 16, 2011. The house is owned by farmer Masayuki Sasaki, 67, whose brother evacuated from the tsunami-hit city of Minamisoma, Fukushima Prefecture, bringing with him some 30 relatives and neighbors who are now taking shelter together at the house where they share the three rooms on the first floor, as they decided not to use the second floor of the 36-year-old wooden house due to continuing aftershocks.
