"The alarm compounded uneasiness in the region, which has been rumbled by dozens of aftershocks since the May 12 quake, including one on Monday night measured at magnitude 5.2 by the U.S. Geological Survey. No damage or injuries were reported."

"It came a few hours after China's more than 1 billion people paused for three minutes of mourning an observance that previously only honored the death of a top Chinese leader."
