This June 2013 photo shows No. 1, right, and No. 2 at Sendai nuclear power station in Sendai, Kagoshima prefecture, southwestern Japan. A prominent volcanologist disputed Japanese regulators' conclusion that two nuclear reactors were safe from a volcanic eruption in the next few decades, saying Friday, Oct. 17, 2014 that such a prediction was impossible. A cauldron eruption at one of several volcanos surrounding the Sendai nuclear power plant could not only hit the reactors but could cause a nationwide disaster, said Toshitsugu Fujii, head of a government-commissioned panel on volcanic eruption prediction.

FILE - In this Saturday, Sept. 27, 2014 file photo found in a camera possessed by 59-year-old hiker Izumi Noguchi, a construction worker, who fell victim to the eruption of Mount Ontake, and was offered to Kyodo News by his wife, Hiromi, Friday, Oct. 3, Noguchi poses on the summit of Mount Ontake shortly before the eruption of the volcanic mountain in central Japan. Noguchi was climbing alone, as his usual hiking companion, his wife Hiromi, had to work, she told Japanese broadcaster NHK and other TV stations. His compact camera was banged up, but the memory chip inside was undamaged. She printed all 100 shots. The last one is of an enormous plume billowing from the crater behind a mountaintop lodge.

Japanese Minister in charge of abductions Eriko Yamatani speaks during an interview with journalists at her office in Tokyo Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2014. Yamatani urged North Korea to quickly release the results of a new investigation into the fate of dozens, possibly hundreds, of Japanese believed to have been abducted by the North's agents in the 1970s and '80s. Yamatani said it is extremely regrettable that North Korea hasn't informed Japan of the timing or other details of its expected announcement. Japanese on the posters read:
