Consensus rules the Arms Trade Treaty. Or does it?
2009-11-10 17:00:00 The recent adoption of a United Nations resolution to produce legally binding international standards for the transfer of conventional arms is a real boost to the cause of international peace and security. Overwhelming support in the First Committee of the UN General Assembly for the negotiation of these new rules has set the scene for a series of preparatory meetings leading to the convening in 2012 of the United Nations Conference on the Arms Trade Treaty. This is an important development on at least three levels. First, it surely reflects the international community?s new-found urgency for pursuing arms control, disarmament and non-proliferation initiatives. It follows hard on the heels of the Cluster Munitions Convention adopted in 2008. Russia and the United States in the meantime are negotiating radical cuts to their nuclear arsenals. Efforts are intensifying to resolve long-standing nuclear weapons differences with Iran and North Korea. Nations of Africa have just brought...

Option ARMs: That Explosion Is The Sound Of The Other Shoe Dropping
2009-09-19 09:01:00 Just when they thought it might be safe to go back in the housing market… [Hat tip Freedom's Phoenix] WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The federal government and states are girding themselves for the next foreclosure crisis in the country’s housing downturn: payment option adjustable rate mortgages that are beginning to reset. "Payment option ARMs are about to explode," Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller said after a Thursday meeting with members of President Barack Obama’s administration to discuss ways to combat mortgage scams. "That’s the next round of potential foreclosures in our country," he said. Option-ARMs are now considered among the riskiest offered during the recent housing boom and have left many borrowers owing more than their homes are worth. These "underwater" mortgages have been a driving force behind rising defaults and mounting foreclosures. In Arizona, 128,000 of those mortgages will reset over the the next year...

These Arms Are Snakes
2008-10-11 12:50:00 To say time's tied a lot of baggage to punk is no understatement. Between its tendency to recycle rather than innovate, shun new ideas, stick to the safe shelter of the scene and ineffectively juggling its history and ideology, it's a wonder it hasn't completely reverted to an old man's preservationist society by now.So how does a band stay true to punk's core values without finding itself bogged down with all that baggage? Simple: It simply cuts it all free. These Arms Are Snakes once again produce another effort that channels the best of punk's spirit as it avoid entanglement in all of the unsavory and restricting elements of its chosen style.Using post-hardcore as a springboard to launch itself, TAAS's follow-up to 2006's Easter (review) (Jade Tree) pushes the band further into uncharted territory. This time around, These Arms sever the final thread to their roots. Tail Swallower and Dove is as much the product of a rock act as any firebrand hardcore outfit, as the band t...

Arms - Kids Aflame
2008-08-09 05:09:00 Arms is 26-year-old Todd Goldstein, who also plays guitar in an acclaimed NYC band called Harlem Shakes and is part of a duo called The Sea & The Gulls. He records himself in his bedroom playing a variety of different instruments, he sings, and he tells stories about strange situations. Magnetic Fields, Scott Walker, Brian Eno, Big Star, early REM, Lee Hazlewood and Jim Reeves come to mind, but he’s mostly inspired by “sad/weird/insular genius types” like Neil Young, Stephin Merritt and David Byrne. Arms’ music is lo-fi but lovely, a bit like the electronic album that came as part of that double-disc package released in 2005 by Bright Eyes. The tunes are melodic, the production fuzzy and echo-laden, Goldstein’s crooned vocals melodramatic and impassioned. Highlights of this impressive record include Sad Sad Sad, a classic swing track done acoustically and crooned by Goldstein. It’s an inventive and original excursion from the album’s gen...

Congrats to the Supreme Court for getting yet another one right (good job, Thou Oh-So-Robed-Ones on those Habeas Corpus for “terr’ists” and no death penalty for rape rulings, too — and I’m not be facetious either, by the way).

Combined Arms: World War II
2008-06-08 22:38:00 Combined Arms: World War II (Formerly Battlefields!) "Combined Arms: World War II™" is a 1km hex-based battalion-level simulation of World War II combat that puts the wargamer in the role of the operational commander. Combined Arms: World War II™ uses actual minutes and hours to track time and coordinate orders. Tell your combat and support units when to jump off and how to coordinate their plans. Combined Arms: World War II sticks with what wargamers know by using hexes and unit counters. However, it uses actual minutes and hours to track time and attack plans may be organized based on arrival times for combat units and their support. Replenishment of fuel, ammo and replacements is handled within the engine, as well as unit fatigue. The fog of war is fully modeled with various levels of intelligence for enemy movement and troop concentrations, including false or misleading reports (possibly even on your own units). Combat units are detailed with quality ratings, armor an...
