A New Shot Of Adrenaline. You me and the guy next to you probably misses that satisfying plunge 100 feet downwards on Tatsu or the massive gut wrenching fall on goliath. Well now you can enjoy a new experience since amusement parks all around southern california are installing new attractions (great for us) but as a bonus they are going to market these new rides to make a profit of their merchandise (good for them) and with that new source of income it will eventually trickle down to us and we can help improve our economy. I personally belive the idea of turning superman 180 degrees around and sending the riders backwards 100mph is just AWESOME. but thats just my opinion. []

Japan Crops Crop-Blocked We all know that japans nuclear crisis was a disaster but do you know the true effects of it? Farmers all over japan are in fear of losing their land because of the ban of sale on japanese crops. Even though japan relies heavily on foreign goods they still produce up to 80% of their own vegetables locally. One man,Kenzo Sasaki, is losing about $31,000 for every month the ban on food sales keeps going. He is a 15th generation farmer and now he is in serious debt and fear of losing his land and family. This whole disaster that happened to japan will now greatly affect the world economy not just theirs because they were an economic super power. I believe further testing should be done in japan to see if radiation truly has infected their crops because all we are doing is post poning this situation when we should jump on this and help this country in need.
