But thanks to Navy Seal Team 6, in early May 2011 Bulger graduated to the top spot.

  11. On Japanese tsunami anniversary, recalling Fukushima effects on ocean

    It&rsquo;s been exactly two years since Japan's devastating earthquake and tsunami.&nbsp;The magnitude 9.0 shaker resulted when a portion of the Pacific plate was pushed into and underneath the North American plate, <a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2011/mar/13/science/la-sci-japan-quake-science-20110313" target="_blank">shifting the position of Earth's axis about 6.5 inches</a> and speeding its rotation by about 1.8 microseconds a day.
