Hideo Shimizu, a former member of Unit 731, the notorious Japanese germ-warfare detachment during World War II, arrived by plane in the city of Harbin, northeast China's Heilongjiang province, on Monday evening, expecting to testify and expose the crimes committed by the unit during the Japanese invasion of China during the war.北京时间8月12日晚,731部队原队员清水英男乘飞机抵达哈尔滨,731部队是二战期间臭名昭著的日本细菌战基地,清水英男此行是为了证实和揭露侵华日军在二战期间犯下的罪行。He is expected to visit the Exhibition Hall of Evidences of Crime Committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Imperial Army and the former site of Unit 731 on Tuesday.他计划于13日参观侵华日军第七三一部队罪证陈列馆和731部队遗址。Shimizu, 94, was among the last batch of Unit 731 Youth Corps members sent by Japan to Harbin, China, where he spent more than four months witnessing the war crimes committed by the unit, including the cultivation of pathogens, human dissections and human experiments. He fled China with the retreating Japanese forces on August 14, 1945.今年已有94岁高龄的清水英男,曾是最后一批被派往哈尔滨731部队“少年队”的成员,他在731度过了四个多月,亲眼目睹日军犯下了细菌培植、人体解剖和人体实验这些罪行。1945年8月14日,日军败退,他随日军撤离中国。In 2016, Shimizu revealed his identity as a former Unit 731 member and began to expose the atrocities of the Japanese Imperial Army through public speeches and interviews, aiming to tell historical truths.2016年,清水英男公布了自己曾是731部队“少年队”队员的身份,此后便不断通过公共演讲和采访,致力于向公众揭露侵华日军的暴行,还原历史真相。This visit is Shimizu's first return to Chinese soil in 79 years. He has previously expressed a strong desire to return to China to pray for the deceased and apologize to their families. The trip was made possible by donations from various Japanese civilian groups.时隔79年,清水英男首次回到中国。他一直非常想回来为那些惨遭731部队杀害的人祈福,向受难者家属谢罪。清水英男得到了各种日本民间和平团体的资助,这次行程才得以实现。"The war ended 79 years ago, and most members of Unit 731 have passed away. Shimizu is currently the only surviving member who is willing to expose the Unit's crimes publicly, and he is likely to be the last Unit 731 member to return to Harbin," said Jin Chengmin, curator of the exhibition hall.731部队罪证陈列馆馆长金成民说:“这场战役在79年前早已结束,许多部队成员也早已离世,清水英男是现存的唯一一个愿意向公众揭露731罪行的部队成员,也可能是最后一个能够回到哈尔滨的731成员”。Unit 731 was a top-secret biological and chemical warfare research base established in Harbin as the nerve center for Japanese biological warfare in China and Southeast Asia during World War II.731部队是日军在哈尔滨建立的高度保密的生物战和化学战研究基地,是二战期间,日军使用生物战打击中国和东南亚的神经中枢。At least 3,000 people were used in human experiments by Unit 731, while more than 300,000 people in China were killed by Japan's biological weapons. 至少有3000名受害者被731部队用于人体实验,而至少有300,000名中国人丧生于日本的生化武器。 Germn.细菌Pathogensn.病原体Atrocitiesn.暴行;滔天罪行

We've referenced it enough, so why not return from out summer vacation to discuss Primus at Seahawks Exhibition Hall, 2004. This recording captures the band with a more raw and aggressive sound than any of the other soundboard recordings from this run. As to the why, we discuss some possible sonic reasons, but really, they must have been feeling their oats that night. Frankie hand-picks some highlights for you to consider, but we highly recommend that you block off a couple of hours to experience the entire recording.

A new ordinance from the Seattle City Council wants to ban caste discrimination. The legislation is off to Mayor Bruce Harrell to sign. If he does, Seattle would be the first city to add caste to a list of protected classes.Councilmember Kshama Sawant, a bill sponsor, says it's a simple question. Should discrimination based on caste be allowed to continue in Seattle? But, critics of the ordinance say the current discrimination law should be enough.Sital Kalantry, a Seattle University law professor, is here to help us untangle the ordinance.We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.

If your world is Wichita, Kansas, the birthplace of Pizza Hut, White Castle and Kirstie Alley, there’s no more controversial building right now than Century II, a performing arts space built by John Hickman, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, that’s under siege from new development. Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center was built to commemorate Wichita’s 1970 centennial. Designed by architect John Hickman, the very Modernist Century II was built provide a large and attractive civic center with a Concert Hall, Convention Hall, Exhibition Hall, and later an expo hall and an attached Hyatt Regency. Our guest today is one of the best and hardest-working Modern preservationists in the country. With the mind of an auditor, the precision of a concert violinist, and the number-crunching of an MBA, because she is all three, Celeste Bogart Racette leads the movement to save Century II from the bulldozer. She has a personal connection to the building - as her father was Mayor at Wichita when it was built. Later on, a few minutes with Kyle Bergman on the upcoming Architecture and Design Festival, this year online.
Time for coffee and some networking in the exhibition hall.
Recorded live from the Exhibition Hall @ the G3 Conference.

He's joined by representatives of conventions as organisers, and one of the world's highest profile cosplayers to discuss the other side of the comic con table as exhibitor AND participant. We think it's a pretty interesting discussion - enjoy!

The first Convention Hall no longer stands, but it paved the way for the current Convention Center that spans eight city blocks and boasts a variety of spaces to accommodate events from UMKC basketball games to car shows. Convention Hall opened on February 22, 1899 with a performance by John Phillip Sousa's band. It hosted other notable guests before burning to the ground in April 1900, just three months before the Democratic National Convention was slated to be held at the venue. The community banded together to raise funds and complete a brand new building to replace the Convention Hall in time to host the Democratic National Convention. After opening the second Convention Center just in time for the Democratic National Convention it went on to host more notable events, including a Republican National Convention, before being replaced by the Municipal Auditorium. The Municipal Auditorium, built in 1934, was more upscale and larger than the Convention Hall it replaced. Today, events hosted at one of Municipal Auditorium's four venues – Music Hall, Municipal Arena, The Little Theater and Exhibition Hall – are uniquely elegant, as all have been restored to their mid-century glamour. Since the building of the Municipal Auditorium more expansions and renovations have graced downtown Kansas City's convention complex. The most noteworthy expansion was the completion of Bartle Hall in 1994. Named for H. Roe Bartle, Bartle Hall boasts the largest column-free exhibit space and the four art deco inspired pylons that support the roof. The pylons and crowning sculptures, designed by artist R.M. Fisher, are a pillar of the Kansas City skyline. The first Convention Hall was an achievement for downtown Kansas City, providing space for large scale events and paving the way for today's convention complex that includes the Municipal Auditorium, Conference Center, Bartle Hall and a beautiful outdoor event space, Barney Allis Plaza. Explore all our spaces here.

Meet Greg Van Borssum and Joe Williams. They don't just talk about suicide prevention, they live it. Every day. In March of 2016, I had the opportunity to serve as a Social Media Ambassador for the National Council on Behavioral Health at their annual conference. NatCon16 brought together almost 5,000 mental and behavioral health specialists for dozens of talks, presentations, poster displays and, most importantly, the chance to connect. As a Social Media Ambassador, my job was to capture my unique perspective on the event and share it via social media. As I wandered through the exhibition halls I met dozens of software companies, pharma representatives, educational training firms and workplace wellness programs. Turning down an aisle I heard voices with "not from around here" accents belonging to Australians Greg Van Borssum and Joe Williams. When you meet Greg and Joe it's easy to make a false assumption. What you see are strong, chipper, intelligent men who were successful professional athletes. What you don't see is their struggle with mental illness and suicidal thoughts. Being at #NatCon16 gave them the opportunity to take their suicide prevention through inspiration message to a larger audience. This podcast episode took place in the Exhibition Hall of NatCon16, a very lively space with lots of great conversations happening all around us. Our interview competes with a bit of background noise but both Greg and Joe were very eloquent in their thoughts so I'm sure you would mind a bit of hubbub.
