A Map Of Japan Questions and Answers



Voting Question: Those 2 reporters in North Korea?

Why not just break in commando style and take them, keep killing to a min or better none at all, it'll be hard but not impossible, and we'll call it a day. Most of the world may hate us but if we try to do it in a peaceful way, what do we have to worry about? We can easily wipe North Korea off the map, so there won't be any real retribution and I highly doubt any of the larger states like China would care unless we use excessive force. Seriously we all know we can, so why not? They tested Nukes, they broke the peace, I really don't think anyone would take NK's side at this point, China would be pissed too cause NK with weapons is a danger to them also, so we're pissed, China's pissed, the EU's most likely pissed and Japan is def pissed, I highly doubt NK would try to retaliate against that. Huh, I've always believed that China was worried about NK's nuclear capabilities but I'm apparently an idiot :(. Alright, so commando is stupid eh, meh I'm all out of ideas then, what's your plan?  more

THIS PROJECT WILL DETERMINE IF YOU PASS THE 7TH GRADE ; PASS THE 4TH MARKIGN PERIOD AND IF YOU PASS SOCIAL STUDIES CLASS. DUE JUNE 8th, 2009 ! Please Grade this! TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK :-D HERE: Christopher Columbus INTRO: Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy in 1451. Young Christopher Columbus was a sailor. Columbus sailed to Africa and north to Iceland. Columbus sailed with a fleet to England in the year of 1476. While Columbus and his fleet were of the coast of Portugal, pirates attacked ships and Columbus’s ship sunk. Due to the ship fatality, Columbus swam back to shore at Libson. Columbus and his brother, Bartholomew, created a new store in 1479, in Libson. In their store, they sold maps. Christopher Columbus was interested in maps. His interests in maps lead him to the conclusion that you could get to Asia by sailing west to Europe. Columbus’s Accomplishments Accomplishment #1: Christopher Columbus had four voyages. In Christopher Columbus’s first voyage, Columbus thought he could reach Japan by sailing west. Christopher asked Queen Isabella to pay for his voyage, but Spain was currently in a war and couldn’t afford it. Columbus waited six years to ask Queen Isabella again. Finally, the war ended and Queen Isabella gave Columbus three ships. The ships were named, the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria. The ships sailed for thirty-seven days and on October 11, they came across an island. Columbus and the sailors dropped an anchor. Some of the sailors settled on the island naming it “San Salvador” while others stayed on deck simply staring at the island on the horizon. Columbus did not find any Japanese but he knew that Japan was nearby. Columbus continued to explore islands nearby. Columbus came across Cuba and thought it was the mainland China. Shortly after, he found an island named Hispaniola which today is now the countries Dominican Republic and Haiti. On their trip to an island, the Santa Maria had been lost, and sailors built a fort and left thirty-nine sailors behind to look for gold. On September 25th , 1493, Christopher Columbus set out for his second voyage. This time, he sailed with a fleet of seventeen ships. Queen Isabella sent fifteen-hundred men to build a colony and to look for gold. These voyages are accomplishments because Christopher Columbus had discovered, conquered, and named various islands during his trip. Accomplishment #2: Christopher Columbus started what we today call the “Columbian Exchange.” The Columbian Exchange was when a massive exchange of agricultural goods, slave labor, diseases, and ideas between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres. This exchange occurred in 1492. I chose this as an accomplishment because Christopher Columbus helped many people trade and share ideas and thoughts. Accomplishment #3: Christopher Columbus ?????????

Resolved Question: what rides should go in the following empty spaces at niversal studios florida and islands of adventure?

I took a look at the two maps and noticed that there is so much empty space at BOTH parks but they keep shutting down attractions like they have no space. At Universal Studios Florida, I found the following areas suitable for attractions Area 1: The area between E.T. and Terminator is, according to the map empty and suitable for a good attraction set in Hollywood. Maybe something with Hellboy? Area 2: If they shut down Fievel's Playland and rerouted Woody Woodpecker a bit, another good attraction could be put right next to the E.T. building. Maybe a Charlie Brown one like one of the attractions at the Japan park. Area 3: Once again, the Kidzone has another spot to put an attraction, between the Animal show and the Barneyshow. If they closed the Barney show, we could have a great dark ride attraction, perhaps based on Madagascar. Area 4: This one is huge. It the space between Simpsons and MIB. You could put two attractions here. Maybe Battlestar Galactica and Transformers could be pulled in? Area 5: JAWS has a bunh of space suuronding it. A small attraction could go here. Area 6: The area that's by Beetlejuice could fit a good attraction if Beetlejuice was closed. Area 7: This is the entire Blue Man Group building. Close it for something that the park can use, like a FATF indoor ride, that could be like Test Track and send you racing outside. Maybe some interactivity. I still have to do IOA but I'll shorten that by land. Marvel Super Hero Island: There's 2 areas here that could fit maybe an Iron Man mini-launched coaster and maybe a small Thor ride. Toon Lagoon: This one has three areas that could fit a Rocky and Bullwinkle dark ride by that theater place next to Spidey, a Beetle Bailey attraction and maybe a rockin' tug based on Hagrid the Horrible. Jurassic Park: Harry Potter took one of its spaces, but this land still has 4 HUGE spaces. This land is the least developed but is the biggest land. For here, they could shut down Pteranodon Flyers and then put a REAL coaster in themed to Pteranodons. Then, make an indoor Jeep ride like Indiana Jones, except themed to dinos. A kiddie ride themed to dinos could also be added. Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Here they could pretty much just add a flat ride or two. Lost Continent: Ah, here they now need a new crowd pleaser as no one is gonna pay a lot of cash so that they can see Poseidon's Fury. So take some of the lake and theme it to an indoor Minotaur coaster, It would b a wild mouse, so it would be family-orientaned. Seuss Landing: Here they got 4 spaces as well. Behind the Cat in the Hat, a Horton ride could be added. A Lorax dark ride could go in that huge space between Seuss and Lost Continent. A Grinch coaster like the Matterhorn could go by the lake portion of Seuss. Finally, THE LAKE!!! Did you notice that IOA never uses the lake. Sure, they used to, but now nothing's going on. So, they can put in a.... NINTENDO WORLD Here we would have a state of the art Mario dark ride that is thrilling. Maybe you could ride on a mine cart through the sewers up to Bowser's castle. Also, a Legend of Zelda mostly indoors water coaster would be added. A Pokemon play area, Yoshi go-karts, a Donkey Kong indoor show, and Kirby balloon race would also be here. Tell me what you think and your ideas.  more

Resolved Question: What do you think of The Phillipines?

It seems whenever I meet someone from there, unless they're quite young and have been brought up somewhere else, they've got a really bad reputation. I met a man who murdered someone there. I see Philipina women all the time, but they're usually maids for whitefolk. While in Japan, you almost never saw Philipino men, but the women would often be working in the hostess/sex trade. The sort-of normal Philipina women I've met have been living off of social assistance. I met a guy who sometimes goes to that country, and specifically for sex because it's so cheap and the women will do anything there. I'm not trying to be anti-Phillipines, but my image of that country is pretty negative due to all of these things. Just looking at a map, it looks like it might be a great place. Tropical islands. What could be wrong with that? Anyway, your thoughts? LOL. I guess I better change my lifestyle and start noticing some decent people that would better reflect me. However, I don't think "IT" is much of an improvement. Anyone can sit infront of a computer and not do anything beneficial.  more

Resolved Question: Arcade Game from 1990-19?? By Neo-Geo or .....?

I was trying to trace back an arcade game that I used to play at the Sherman Oaks Galleria at the Time Out arcade back in 1991 and later. Now this is going to be difficult to explain since I remember very very little details. This game seemed to be a strategy game. It involved different units of men you can use to go across the screen (It was not a side scroller, but the units moved vertically). Each unit served a purpose like one guy had the ability to do one specific type of attack, while another unit had another. I vividly remember that the game had "special units" where one guy was glowing with rainbow colors and can move faster than others to achieve the objective. The hardest part about remembering this game is what the actual objective was. I don't remember if it was to destroy the opposing enemy units, or to just make it across the map. I had a feeling that maybe it was a Neo-Geo game, but I cannot be sure. It seemed like one of those games that came from Japan, but really, what game isn't? =( During this time, games like Sengoku, King of the Monsters, Smash T.V. were around in the arcade. This game is almost like Battlantis. Here is a youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nFIUpi-FDM  more

Resolved Question: REVISED predictions for the next 100 years. Agree? Disagree? And Why?

I asked this many times over before, but I have rethought and revised my next 100 years predictions: here is how I see it now: -we break our unconditional embargo with Cuba and relations between US and South America improve (within next few years) -Kim Jong Il suffers fatal stroke in say, 8 years, and his successor will be slightly less insane and isolationalist. N. Korea will begin to cooperate with UN sanctions and slowly, relations between North and South Korea and Japan will get better. They will still be nuts, mind you, but the threat of N.Korea and their nuclear program to the world, especially Japan, will be reduced. Without that threat, Japan's interest in the US will slightly diminish as part of our relationship with Japan is based on their defense from Dear Leader. -Iraq settles down in terms of insurgency in next year or two, but will still flare up occasionally, much like, say, Lebanon now. -Afghanistan becomes tough struggle for next 5-10 years but eventually Taliban and Al Qaida will be permanently diminished. US will have reclaimed some international credibility and respect and there will be a small decrease in anti-americanism in Europe and Mid-East. -Japan and China compete economically, but China has internal issues. The difference in the economies of the poor, central chinese and the chinese of the industrialized cities will render China not as powerful in the global scheme as predicted by some analysts. Japan's economy expands unchecked, at the forefrunt of the the technological industry. I say this in the next 10 to 20 years. -At the same time, I predict that the next developing power will in fact be Mexico. -Relations between Russia and United States becomes more strained over issues of Iran and on nuclear proliferation. (5-10 years) -Iran covertly tries to develop nuclear (warhead) capabilities, not just civilian nuclear power. (big surprise there). This happens in next 5-10 years. - In 5-10 years or so years, Israel does what it did to Saddam and to Syria: precision (conventional) air strike on nuclear facilities, i.e enriching, processing, etc. Iran's nuclear program back to square 1. Iran vows revenge, condemns their actions, but is unable to do anything about it. Russia condemns Israel's actions, as does UN and NATO. US also condemns Israel's "rash" actions but still unconditionally supports Israel. Relations b/t Iran and Israel, degrade further, and US and Russian relationship is further strained. -In next 5 years, global economic crisis will slowly return to normal. I predict a second crisis in about 25-30 years. -Pakistan helps Iran rebuild nuclear capabilities covertly. We figure this out through our intelligence agencies and impose sanctions to no avail. (10-25 years from now.) -India also condemns Pakistan and Iran. Slowly, from 20 to 30 years from now, there is an emergence of two main powers (alliances.) 1. B/t US, Israel, UK, France (but so what about the French), India, and China (b/c of its economic interests in US). 2. Iran, Pakistan, Russia, Mexico. Cuba has become a non issue, as has North Korea, which no longer are pursuing nuclear warheads. We will end up having a smaller cold war that will last for about 15-20 years. Very scary time when it seems like Iran and Israel will commence nuclear exchange (seems inevitable). Same issue b/t US and Russia. Globe will at same time undergo a second economic crisis. Russia will be hit hard, and so will its trade partners, especially those interested in commodities, such as Japan. US will ride through and survive. The countries that survive economic crash will win the second cold war. Russian Federation will dissolve into three or four separate states. Trying to not make the same mistake twice, NATO and UN will immediately step in and help protect against further nuclear proliferation. Efforts prove to be a success. Russia becomes far less powerful. Without any real backing from Russia, whose power has greatly diminished, Iran will make a desperate move. Isolated with no real allies or supporters, Iran, if still caught up in a radical Islamic mindset like that of the Ayatollah and Ahmedinejad, will try to drop their entire, though meager,nuclear arsenal on Israeli cities such as Tel Aviv. Israel will, before the detonations, retaliate by unloading their entire arsenal on Iran, wiping it off the map, practically. Syria and Egypt and many neighboring countries of Israel will invade Israel in retaliation as of about 2075, and US will step in on their behalf. This will be Wold War III. US and Israel will fight off invaders, however, fallout and after effects of the Iranian nuke render much of Israel uninhabitable and there will be a mass exodus from Israel to the US, England, Australia, etc. Russia and Mexico will then intervene against US for helping Israel and there will be an all out war between US and Russia. The Russian front will be fought in the air and in space, probably not by nuclear weapons as the theory of Mutually assured Destruction is still applicable. Throughout 21st century, I predict that space will be the new frontier for the military. Whoever has control of the immediate outer space will prevail. i predict this to be America and the russians will lose this frontier as they are already too weak from the second cold war and 2nd economic downturn. War with Mexico will be by land and by air, a much more conventional style of warfare. The Mexicans will invade the US through Arizona and Texas and through a bitter struggle, eventually recapture a portion of the Southwestern United States. Although Mexico will have developed a space program, they will not be technologically advanced enough to fight a war in space like US and Russia. This advantage if the US will prove to end the 2nd Mex-Am War. The lines will be redrawn, with Mexico extending somewhat into Texas and Arizona. Relations will be strained for a good 10-15 years between US and Mexico, but eventually they will improve. That will be the last great war for a while. On a side note, By 2100, I predict climate change and environmental issues will be greatly reduced but not wholly cured by moving towards alternative energies: for power plants: nuclear power, and for cars: electricity.  more

Resolved Question: My predictions for the next 100 years. Do You think this is Plausible? How Do You See It?

here is how I see it: -we break our unconditional embargo with Cuba and relations between US and South America improve (with next few years) -Kim Jong Il suffers fatal stroke in say, 8 years, and his successor will be slightly less insane and isolationalist. N. Korea will begin to cooperate with UN sanctions and slowly, relations between North and South Korea and Japan will get better. -Iraq settles down in terms of insurgency in next year or two. -Afghanistan becomes tough struggle for next 5 years but eventually Taliban and Al Qaida will be permanently diminished. US will have reclaimed some international credibility and respect and there will be a decrease in anti-americanism. -Japan and China compete economically, but China has internal issues that tear it apart: difference in economies b/t poor, central china and the industrialized cities. Communist regime breaks in two, and is not as much of a world power as everyone predicts. Japan expands unchecked, i.e. China is less of a world player and economically controls half of the pacific. I say this in 10 to 15 years. -Relations between Russia and United States becomes more strained over issues of Iran and on nuclear proliferation. (5-10 years) -Iran covertly tries to develop nuclear (warhead) capabilities, not just civilian nuclear power. (go figure). in next few years. - 5 or so years, Israel does what it did to Saddam and to Syria: precision air strike on nuclear facilities, i.e enriching, processing, etc. Iran's nuclear program back to square 1. Iran vows revenge, and along with Russia condems Israel's actions, as does UN and NATO. US also condemns Israel's "rash" actions but still unconditionally supports Israel. Relations b/t Iran and Israel, and US and Russia strained. -In next few years, global economic crisis returns to normal. I predict a second crisis in about 25-30 years. -Pakistan helps Iran rebuild nuclear capabilities covertly. We figure this out through our intelligence agencies and impose sanctions to no avail. (8-15 years from now.) -India also condemns Pakistan and Iran. Slowly, from 15 to 20/25 years from now, there is an emergence of two main powers (alliances.) 1. B/t US, Israel, UK, France (but so what about the French), India, and China (b/c of its economic interests in US). 2. Iran, Pakistan, Russia, and Japan, which gets its oil and resources from Russia. Cuba has become a non issue, as has North Korea, which no longer is pursuing nuclear warheads. We will end up having a smaller cold war that will last for about 15-20 years.

Russian Federation will dissolve into three or four separate states. Trying to not make the same mistake twice, NATO and UN will immediately step in and help protect against further nuclear proliferation. Efforts prove to be a success.
