	Modern Defense - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Modern Defense also known as the Robatsch Defense is a chess opening in which Black allows White to occupy the center with pawns on d4 and e4.
		The Modern Defense is quite closely related to the Pirc Defense, to the extent that the "Modern" is often seen as a description of some variants of the Pirc; the primary difference between the two openings is that in the Modern Black delays developing his knight to f6.
		The Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings classifies the Modern Defense as B06.

		The original Nuremberg Defense was used by WWII war criminals to argue that they should not be held responsible for their crimes because they were simply carrying out the orders of their superiors and the laws of their respective states.
		The defense is derived from a set of principles which the U.S. government endorsed at the close of WWII after a U.N. General Assembly Resolution, adopted on December 11, 1946 and recognized in the Charter of the Nurnberg Tribunal.
		The modern Nuremberg Defense first surfaced in the trials of criminal defendants arrested for offenses surrounding their protests of the Vietnam War, and it has continued to be raised ever since.

	MODERN WARFARE: A French View of Counterinsurgency
		A modern army is first of all one that is capable of winning the conflict in which its country is engaged.
		The fact that modern warfare is not officially declared, that a state of war is not generally proclaimed, permits the adversary to continue to take advantage of peacetime legislation, to pursue his activities both openly and secretly.
		Since the stake in modern warfare is the control of the populace, the first objective is to assure the people their protection by giving them the means of defending themselves, especially against terrorism.

	The Security Situation in the Taiwan Strait (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Traditionally, China's defense strategy and force planning priorities have been determined by the need to maintain a large armed forces structure capable of responding to a wide range of internal and external missions.
		Taiwan's naval modernization program--dubbed "Kuang Hua" or "Glorious China"--includes the licensed-production of eight Perry-class (Cheng Kung-class) frigates; the purchase of six Lafayette-class (Kang Ting-class) frigates from France; and, the lease of eight Knox-class frigates from the United States.
		Beyond 2005, development of a modern military force capable of exerting military influence within the region, achieving deterrence against potential enemies, preserving independence of action in domestic and foreign affairs, protecting the nation's economic resources and maritime areas, and defending the sovereignty of the nation's territory will remain one of China's national priorities.

	China’s Defense Modernization (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The first was that modernization of the defense industries would depend on the overall modernization of the national economy; therefore, the defense establishment must not anticipate any special funding that would alter the trend of allocations set in 1972.
		Defense expenditure trends established in 1972, which have permitted an average annual growth rate of 1 to 2 percent, will continue to set a critical limitation on what defense equipment can be imported, while basic weaknesses in the economy will have to be corrected before any extensive reallocation of resources to defense will occur.
		By 1964, five-year defense plans were paralleling and coordinated with the five-year plans for the civil sector of the economy while India sought to balance its long-term defense needs with the more immediate issues of the Chinese to the north and Pakistan to the west and east.

	June 21, Testimony Before the U.S.-China Commission (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Many factors determine the strength of a national defense industry, and the connection between the civilian economy and military capabilities is complex and nonlinear.
		Given this, the Chinese appear to be following a three pronged approach: modernize their military now through foreign acquisitions; emphasize research in asymmetric weapons for near term advantage; and pursue long term economic growth to provide an adequate industrial and technological base for a modern arms industry.
		Modernization of China’s defense industry requires the acquisition of capital goods and technological ‘know-how’ needed for the industrial base that could support modern weapons programs, along with investment in RandD centers to design indigenous military technologies.

		Lately some cranky evangelicals have taken after modernity in a movement they call "radical Orthodoxy." It is not very radical, being mostly confined to University folk (the group least likely to write a great book, start a great movement, or create great art) and to boutique churches inhabited by same.
		The worship of any one area of the modern (science, republican government, medicine, free markets) at the expense of the idea that produced them, Christianity, is also pre-modern.
		It is modernity that best waits for heaven in the age to come while trying to soften the harsh reality of this present age.

	Nuts to Whom? - The insanity defense is crazy. By Dirk Olin
		Bright lines are often unavoidable in the law, but the precision of modern psychiatry demands that we stop asking juries to make medical determinations of insanity once and for all.
		Malvo's plea is closer to that of Patty Hearst, the heiress kidnapped in the 1970s who took up bank robbery with her captors, than that of Jeffrey Dahmer, the cannibalistic mass murderer, or that of Andrea Yates, the postpartum depressive who drowned her five kids.
		In 1843, the modern insanity defense was born after a Scottish psycho named Daniel M'Naughton tried to shoot British Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel, killing his secretary instead.

		Despite the hard work of modern law enforcement, the police are at best a reactionary force.
		In the best of circumstances, assuming a call was even made, the average response time is at least several minutes which is sufficient for personal attacks to occur.

	E-Budo.com - Modern Weapons?
		Modern weapons are important to understand, but the answers for dealing with them, are found in the techniques of the past.
		Again, modern weapons should be studied, but remember, firearms have been around for centuries and as far as modernism goes, when people tend to exclude the past they leave things out.
		Many successful defenses against handgun assaults involved having the "victim" recognize the developing situation, perceiving the position of the carried (but sometimes concealed) weapon, and attacking the attacker before he has a chance to pull his weapon or as he is pulling the weapon.

	Pundita: Pentagon's New Map: Struggling toward a modern American defense policy
		Thus, Barnett is making a serious attempt to modernize US defense policy, which has not undergone any fundamental updating since the concept of establishing US naval superiority in order to be ready to meet threats before they come to US shores.
		This is because US defense policy got swallowed up by the Cold War and the attendant NATO policy.
		And the same deep suspicion holds true in reverse: From within the Pentagon there is a band that zealously guards the sacred cow of American democracy, which is that the US military must carefully confine itself to purely military matters.

		In view of the limited defense budget, the government and the military should form a strong synergy with research centers, universities and financial institutions to build a modern defense industry subordinate to the country's national defense system, military and defense experts say.
		According to the experts, the government has to show a strong commitment to gradually raising the defense budget and pursuing self-sufficiency in its arsenal supply, while universities and research centers have to play their own roles in conduct research in developing military technology.
		President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono who officially opened the discussion, expressed his commitment to increasing defense spending to between 3 percent and 5 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) compared to the current 1 percent in a bid to build a modern defense force.

	KARATE-DO as a defense mechanism in our aggressive modern world
		We are permanently manipulated by propaganda, the publicity, little by little modern men and women lose their identity.
		I believe that the main aggression that modern people confront today is as I stated in the previous parragraph, it is therefore very narrow-minded to define self-defense restricted merely to hitting and avoiding blows.
		It is almost unnecessary to clarify, but I believe the latter defense is the most important, because defense against physical aggressions is actually inherent to karate's technical structure.
