Japan Travel: Fun for all at the Ocean Expo Park, Okinawa Main Island, Okinawa15
The Ocean Expo Park, in Okinawa is fun for the whole family!! Located on the tip of the Motobu Peninsula in northern Okinawa Honto, this park was built in 1976 in commemoration of the Okinawa International Ocean Expo 1975.
The park is quite large at about three kilometers along the coast. Though there are walkways between the facilities, visitors have the option of using shuttle buses which operate between the park's attractions. There are at least two buses per hour. The shuttle buses are not free so visitors may choose to spend 200 yen for a one-day unlimited rides pass.
The Churaumi Aquarium located in the Ocean Expo Park is said to be the best aquarium in Japan. In addition there are many fun and exciting facilities in the park! Some of the highlights include the following facilities:
**Oceanic Culture Museum is located just beside the park's central gate. There are displays of ship replicas as well ocean-related displays from other parts of Asia and the South Pacific. Visitors can see a giant replica of a Lakatoi canoe from Papua New Guinea as well as trade ship used for travel between the Ryukyu Kingdom and other Asian countries. There is a planetarium here as well.
**Native Okinawan Village is located next to the Oceanic Culture Museum. This small open air museum displays over twenty residences and other buildings from various time periods and regions of Okinawa. There is no admission fee and visitors can freely wander between the structures.
**Tropical Dream Center is a beautiful botanical garden with an array of tropical trees and plants housed in multiple greenhouses. The center also has a Tower of Babel--a 36 meter tall observatory tower.
**Emerald Beach is an attractive sand beach on the northern part of the park. Emerald Beach is divided into three separate sections: a beach for playing and swimming, a beach for resting and a beach for viewing. Each section is carefully maintained, keeping in mind safety and comfort and most of all, the conservation of nature.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The United States Marine Corps's Amphibious Reconnaissance Battalion, formerly Company, was a specialized team of Marines and Navy Corpsmen that performed clandestine preliminary pre–D-Day amphibious reconnaissance of planned beachheads and their littoral area within uncharted enemy territory for the joint-Navy/Marine force commanders of the Pacific Fleet during World War II. Often accompanied by Navy Underwater Demolition Teams and the early division recon companies, these amphib recon platoons performed more reconnaissance missions (over 150) than any other single recon unit during the Pacific campaigns.They are amongst the patriarch lineage of the Force Reconnaissance companies which still continue providing force-level reconnaissance for the latter Fleet Marine Force. Their countless efforts have contributed to the success of the joint-Marines/Army maritime landing forces assigned under the Navy fleet commanders during the island-hopping campaigns of the numerous atolls in the Pacific.
Their trademark of amphibious techniques utilized insertion methods under the cover of darkness by rubber boats, patrol torpedo boats, Catalina flying boats, converted high speed destroyer transport ships, or APDs, and submarines for troop transports. These Marines applied skills in topographic and hydrographic surveys by charting and measuring water depths, submerged coral heads, and terrain inland; taking photographs and soil samples for permeability for amphibious tractors and landing craft parties.
Their assignments included scouting or reconnoitering a planned, or potential landing site, and intelligence-gathering missions. These teams also evaluated the beaches looking for exits off the hostile beaches inland, for contingency measures if the Marine landing force were to necessitate a retreat. Most importantly, they compromised the locations of enemy forces, their strengths and weakness, and other importance in the follow-up of an amphibious assault.

SUMMARY
=======
United States war crimes are the violations of the laws and customs of war of which the United States Armed Forces are accused of committing since the signing of the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907. These have included the summary execution of captured enemy combatants, the mistreatment of prisoners during interrogation (torture), and the use of violence against civilian non-combatants.
War crimes can be prosecuted in the United States through the War Crimes Act of 1996. However, the U.S. Government, which strongly opposes the International Criminal Court (ICC) treaty, believing it is seriously flawed, does not accept ICC jurisdiction over its nationals.

SUMMARY
=======
Allied war crimes include both alleged and legally proven violations of the laws of war by the Allies of World War II against either civilians or military personnel of the Axis powers.
At the end of World War II, many trials of Axis war criminals took place, most famously the Nuremberg Trials and Tokyo Trials. However, in Europe, these tribunals were set up under the authority of the London Charter, which only considered allegations of war crimes committed by people who acted in the interests of the Axis powers.
Some war crimes involving Allied personnel were investigated by the Allied powers and led in some instances to courts-martial. Some incidents alleged by historians to have been crimes under the law of war in operation at the time were, for a variety of reasons, not investigated by the Allied powers during the war, or were investigated and a decision was taken not to prosecute.
