It was once a country that remained completely blocked off to any foreigner until the 1500s. At that time, Japan was ruled by the shogun, warlords who were supposed to respect the Emperor. The most famous shogun is Tokugawa Ieyasu, who united most of the country and clarified the classes. 1945 is the turning point in Japanese history, and has shaped the entire government and international policy since. Since then, Japan's economy has gone through the roof, to place it second in the world. Education Awa Odori (Tokushima)

Transcript: Causes of hunger What is Hunger? Research The connections I have with hunger are: I Once saw an old lady on the street crying of hunger. I gave her the last five dollars I have in my purse, she took it and she was really grateful. I was glad I gave her that money, cause I felt better afterwards. Also I interviewed my dad, Gabriel Onoh who suffered from hunger during his first years in America. Hunger in America http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RUYkzJio24&feature=related Connection Solutions to hunger Effect of hunger http://feedingamerica.org/ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/16/AR2009111601598.html Connection Hunger is the feeling of discomfort or weakness caused by lack of food, coupled with desire to eat. 14.4 percent of United state households struggle to put enough food on the table. More than 48 million Americans—including 16.2 million children– live in these household I am working on Hunger because I have a personal experience with it, and I know that most of you have too. The three major effects of hunger are: sickness, physical and mental problem and short attention span. “Food insecurity and hunger causes wide range detrimental consequences on physical and mental health of people” (feeding America) Childhood hunger causes emotional and behavioral problem, and limits social development. Short attention span is the amount of time a person can concentrate on a task without becoming distarcted. Explanation Name: Linda Onoh Teacher: Ms. O'Connor Course: English. 1st period Date: May 25. 2012 Hunger is caused by Poverty, food wastage and food desert. Poverty is being extremely poor. Many families suffer from Poverty in America. Food wastage is when you waste food instead of preserving it. In America, “ we throw away 96 billion pounds of food”.
