Japanes War Crimes : Has Justice Been Served ? Speech by prominent JapaneseAmericans calling for the Japanese government to address its war crimes in WWII. http://skycitygallery.com/japan/japhonda.html
Extractions: and also at the Commonwealth Club in SF I am here today to address the issue of Japans War Crimes. I was invited to speak primarily because I authored an Assembly Joint Resolution this session calling on Japan to formally apologize for war crimes and to pay reparations to the victims of those war crimes. I am a teacher by training, but want to be clear that I am not an expert on the issue of war and the atrocities that inevitably appear to accompany war. What I want to share with you is my point of view on this issue and why I think it is important to pay attention to an issue that took place over 50 years ago. It a view that is personal, stemming from something uniquely American. It is a view that reflects the "new" Asian Pacific American or APA community. Finally, it is a view that is based on and supported by established legal and moral precedent. 1. Why me, a Japanese-American ?

Extractions: 1. INTRODUCTION The Real World Computing Partnership (RWC) was founded in 1992, as a government/industrial consortium, with distributed laboratories focused on several long-term research areas in computer science. Although different people were involved, RWC is widely viewed as the successor to the Institute for New Generation Computer Technology (ICOT), frequently called the "Fifth Generation Project", another joint government/industrial research consortium, heavily funded by MITI and various Japanese high-tech companies. Consortium laboratories are more common in Japan than in the US, where the most high-profile examples are Sematech and MCC, both of which were motivated by the success of the Japanese semiconductor industry in the 1980's. A large number of reports have been written about RWC and especially during its formative stages. For more complete background, readers should review some of those, all available on the ATIP www site, www.atip.or.jp

Plant-Covered Roofs Ease Urban Heat The promotion of green roofs by city governments in Canada, japan, and the United States. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2002/11/1115_021115_GreenRoofs.html
Extractions: Like a tiny seed carried by a late summer breeze, the idea of cultivating plants on rooftops has spread from Europe to North America and around the world. Toronto is the most recent city to hop on the green roof bandwagon. Last month it joined Canada's federal government and Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, a public-private lobby and research network, in announcing a $1 million (U.S. $640,000) partnership program aimed at monitoring the performance of two local green roofs over a two-year period. Although several cities in the United States have also undertaken green roof programs, Europe is in the vanguard of the green roof experiment, with many cities having put incentive systems in place. The green roof of the Buckman Terrace Apartments in midtown Portland, Oregon, was implemented to reduce storm water runoff. Several kinds of native grasses and wildflowers grow there.

Mustard Gas Victims Sue Japanese Government Advertisement. Mustard gas victims sue Japanese government ( 200402-022341) (China Daily) A new group of Chinese victims of chemical http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/en/doc/2004-02/02/content_302377.htm
Extractions: A new group of Chinese victims of chemical weapons left behind by Japanese troops during World War II will file a suit against the Japanese Government seeking an official apology and compensation. Some 40 victims of last August's mustard gas exposure tragedy in Qiqihar in Northeast China's Heilongjiang Province signed power of attorneys with Chinese lawyers on Sunday and yesterday, entrusting them in a joint legal action. A victim lies on the bed at a hospital in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province. At least 36 Chinese people were injured by the chemical weapons left over by the Japanese army in World War II at a construction site in Qiqihar on April 4. [Xinhua] "What matters is not how much money we will get in compensation, but how the Japanese Government will face its history," said Su Xiangxiang, a lawyer who will take the case and has been fighting for the right of thousands of Chinese victims of Japanese invasion for nearly a decade. Under increasing pressure from the Chinese Government, the Japanese Government last year agreed to give 300 million yen (US$2.56 million) to 44 victims of the August 4 accident in which one died 17 days later. The payment was made by the end of last year.
