Cabbage Patch Kids-Inspired Hats
Aren't these little beauties adorable? They look just like Cabbage Patch Kids! Well, to be honest, the real babies are much cuter than the toys, but their yarn hats that resemble wigs go a long way toward making them into little dolls. It works best if your child is chubby-cheeked already. The patterns for these knit and/or crochet caps come from several sources, which you can find at Diply.
And twenty years from now, after they get over the humiliation, these kids will post the pictures on the internet where everyone will laugh and pass them around until they are viral all over again. -via Geeks Are Sexy

timelapse of the big one and the continuing after shocks (30+ a day) using google maps and geonet data.
But reading the newslinks they provide over there, they had a rather huge problem.

Trust me, having lived through this quake I can tell you that this damage is not at all surprising. The earth shook in a lateral movement. There was very little "up and down". For the record, the quake yielded 648 kilotons of energy, and was only 20 miles deep. Thats the equivalent of 45 Hiroshima bombs, practically directly below where this image was taken.
So, what happens to gravel when shaken? It gets flung quite widely. Steel rails will bend, but not get stretched, unless under a high temperature to make it pliable. They would be straight, lying in pieces, scattered like gravel. Nice try.
How about simply Googling that Earthquake and seeing the complete damage it did.
What you see in the image is a compression failure, not a fault movement deflection. This is why the rest of the landscape is not deformed. This makes it extremely dangerous as those rails are still under extreme pressure to remain deflected as they are, like a spring.
I would guess in order to repair those rails, they'd have to place cutting charges on them and get the heck out of Dodge.
I came up with 42 extra pixels.
Nuff said.
that said the destruction in the latest quake was pretty epic
A quick google for NZ earthquake and railroad yielded the above link.
It has a great photoshop, they even turned the locomotive over in it.
Here's a great one. The second picture on this link is a different angle of the same deformed track. The angles apear even sharper from the new perspective, and imposible to photoshop.
Remember: Google is your friend.

Watch the first 10 seconds of this vid. Nothing fake about it. Try living through a 7.1 quake and then you are qualified to call whatever you want.
