Question #1: how did only few survive this disaster? This is inaccurate more people in the end ended up living, 10,000 people died but millions survived Question#2:Who is helping Japan rescue people who are trapped, shelter those in need, and feed those who are in need of food?.......... The American Red Cross and the Japanese Red Cross are working together on the aftermath of this crisis to find trapped or homeless people, deliver and provide food, and shelter those that are in need....... they are also evacuating people because of the nuclear reactors http://redcrosschat.org/2011/03/14/how-we-are-helping-after-the-japan-earthquake-and-pacific-tsunami/ Question#3: Question#4:

Know: Need To Know: how high was the tide the tide was at least 30 ft. high history of japans earthquake? about 1500 earthquakes happen in japan every year...... small earthquakes what is the U.S. doing to help japan cities? president obama has sent out aids,supplies, the red cross, and money the president did announce that "we are going to help this devestated country" what precautions should we take? we should always have first aid kit, flashlight, survival kit and enough food for a couple days in our house for a big disaster and a backup plan for where we are going to go if anything like that ever happens. Though I agree with this I feel that we should have more readyness with our houses and building what forms an earthquake? Stress in the earth's outer layer cause a pushing effect against the sides of the fault. Due to this motion, rocks slip or collide against each other releasing energy causing earthquake. Is there any possible way to prevent an earthquake? We cannot prevent earthquakes, but we can prevent some damages by noticing hazards and creating structures that protects against them.

specific things japan did to prepare for certain earthquakes: they built there building so that they would just rock back and forth during a 8.0 earthquake but this earthquake was 9.0 so all of the buidings collapsed. media type="youtube" key="z1CudLwCpmw" height="390" width="480"

structure's:
what was japan's plan for this disaster? was japan prepared for a disaster like that? How are these buildings made to hold such a big earthquake
 * our the structure of our buildings safe enough for a big earthquake?**
 * has missouri done anything to prepare for a natural disaster like japans?**
 * what is missouri's plan for disaster big or small?**

=**earthquake shock absorbers** = As Japan recovers from its devastating earthquake, one small company in upstate New York is hoping its innovative technology could help make the country's buildings safer from future quakes.

Taylor Devices, a 100-employee manufacturer based in North Tonawanda, N.Y., sells patented earthquake shock-absorbers, which stabilize buildings, bridges, and elevated freeways during temblors to help prevent them from falling.http://money.cnn.com/2011/03/14/smallbusiness/japan_earthquake_small_business_opportunity/index.htm
