	Can a cactus plant be a magic bullet for dieters? - Health - MSNBC.com
		24: NBC's Janice Shamlian reports on hoodia — a cactus-like plant only found in South Africa that may hold a magic weight loss ingredient.
		NBC News correspondent Janet Shamlian talks about the possible magic pill we've all been waiting for.
		Having endured weight loss camp as a child, at 26 she's still waging the war and hoping hoodia will be the weapon that works.

	TECHNICAL ANNEX (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		NBC materials are dangerous to process and store, and there are international political costs associated with violations of arms control conventions.
		The deployment or use of NBC weapons by a proliferant entails significant strategic risks and costs, particularly in confrontations or conflicts in which opponents have capable conventional forces.
		Notwithstanding the significant risks associated with possession or use of NBC weapons, situations may occur during a regional contingency in which a proliferant considers using such weapons against U.S., allied, or coalition forces and facilities.

	Evaluating Security Regime Significance (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		By focusing on the NBC weapon control regimes and investigating how and why they do or do not meaningfully impact their respective issue areas, insights into the determinates of regime consequence are investigated.
		This contention will be examined by focusing on the NBC weapon control regimes and investigating how and why they do or do not meaningfully impact their respective issue areas (the acquisition and possession of nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons).
		As NBC weapon control is considered to be a distinct, albeit broad, policy sector with similar objectives and problems, it may be fruitful to compare and contrast whether and how these regimes do or do not matter.

		The challenges these weapons pose in time of conflict became clear during the Persian Gulf War when U.S. and allied forces had to deal with real and potential complications posed by Iraq's arsenal of NBC weapons and missiles.
		Iran makes many of its efforts to purchase NBC weapons and missile-related technologies on the open market, and there are indications that Iranian officials stationed abroad provide clandestine support, obtaining information on foreign companies and on employees susceptible to recruitment and looking for ways to avoid relevant laws and customs procedures.
		As was the case with chemical weapons, Iran's motivation to improve and expand its ballistic missile force results from the war with Iraq, during which Iran could not respond adequately to Iraqi missile attacks on Iranian cities.

	Bulletin 23 - Letter from Abolition 2000 Global Council to UN Security Council
		While the proposed resolution affirms support for multilateral treaties on NBC weapons, it refers only to prevention of proliferation, and is silent, rhetorically or substantively, on ending deployment of existing weapons and on the imperative of disarmament – the aim of the NPT, Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), and the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention (BWC).
		The resolution thus ignores that the problem of the spread of NBC weapons, and their potential acquisition by terrorists, will never be effectively addressed absent effective compliance with disarmament obligations.
		The proposed resolution purports to require states to prohibit non-state actors from acquiring NBC weapons and their means of delivery and to take measures to account for, secure, and prevent unlawful trafficking in the weapons, related materials, and means of delivery.

	[Report] Surveillance and Monitoring of Explosives, Chemica
		BCC's goal in conducting this study was to determine the current status of the worldwide NBC (nuclear, biological and chemical) weapon monitoring industry and to assess its growth potential over a 5-year period from 2003 to 2008.
		In addition to their traditional functions in national defense, NBC weapon monitoring technologies are becoming a major component of the worlds antiterrorist strategy.
		Other influential factors such as the increased use of NBC weapons detection devices by law enforcement and emergency responder entities, and the substantially expanded use of explosive detectors in aviation security are discussed.

	Security Council on Non-Proliferation
		The draft thus ignores that the problem of the spread of NBC weapons, and their potential acquisition by terrorists, will never be effectively addressed absent effective compliance with disarmament obligations.
		Proliferation of NBC weapons, and their potential acquisition by terrorists, will never be effectively addressed so long as nuclear weapons are highly valued by major powers.
		There is widespread recognition of the potential problem of non-state actors acquiring weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery; however a resolution of this magnitude, which does not involve all nations during the deliberations, will only inspire distrust and resentment.

	SIPRI YEARBOOK 2004, CHAPTER 14
		In 2003 the issue of how to respond to the proliferation of nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) weapons and their delivery systems continued to occupy a central place on the foreign and security policy agenda both of states and international organizations.
		The purpose of the new initiative is to intercept ships, aircraft and vehicles suspected of carrying nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, ballistic missiles, and related technologies to or from ‘countries of proliferation concern’.
		The attacks carried out in the United States on 11 September 2001 focused attention on two threats that were not previously addressed: weapons in the hands of non-state actors; and the threat posed by the use of items not normally thought of as weapons.

	SIPRI Yearbook 2005 - 14. Libya’s renunciation of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons and ballistic missiles
		In a joint statement with the UK and the USA on 19 December 2003, Libya publicly renounced nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) weapons and agreed to restrict itself to the possession of ballistic missiles with a range of no greater than 300 km.
		In 2004 details of an informal nuclear weapon suppliers’ network emerged and a new basis was provided for evaluating the proliferation assessments that governments had made in the past.
		Bush Administration officials have portrayed it as a vindication of the administration’s robust approach to combating the spread of NBC weapons.

	AmericanHeritage.com / THE GREAT CORONATION WAR
		NBC, the pioneer, had lost the lead to CBS in radio, still the more widely reaching, and therefore more profitable, of the two.
		CBS and NBC had each independently arranged with private owners of P-51 Mustangs, the American-made World War II fighters considered the fastest propeller planes ever built, to meet the RAF Canberra in Goose Bay and bring their films to Boston.
		In the NBC offices, where nothing had gone right that day, that week, or, it began to seem, that year, the gloom was thick enough to touch.

	Iraq: The UNSCOM Experience
		Although all Iraq's weapon programmes are of concern to the international community, and the dismantling of its nuclear and missile programmes is an important component of UNSCOM's work, this fact sheet focuses on the chemical and biological weapon (CBW) programmes.
		One of the most important aspects of the war was the use of chemical weapons (CW), initiated by Iraq in 1982 in blatant violation of its commitments as a signatory to the 1925 Geneva Protocol, a treaty banning the use of CW against another contracting party.
		This inability to certify Iraq as free from non-conventional weapons and weapon capability is a key issue in the continuance of economic sanctions against the country.

	IRAN AND WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION
		While some analysts believe that Iran would use its NBC weapons and missiles only if the regime's survival were in question, the limited available evidence calls that thesis into question.
		Iran's storage of chemical weapons on Abu Musa, an island in the Persian Gulf off the coast of Dubai, suggests that Tehran would use such weapons long before the regime's security was in doubt.
		The delivery system must be capable of carrying the weapon's weight, have sufficient range to reach the intended target, and possess enough accuracy to allow the weapon to do significant damage.

		In addition, capabilities developed for the battlefield to deal with NBC proliferation -- especially intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance means -- can be brought to bear in support of international regimes, export controls, and other international monitoring efforts to prevent the spread of NBC weapons and related technologies.
		This initiative was undertaken in light of the growing threats to U.S. security and national interests posed by the proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) weapons, often referred to as weapons of mass destruction, and their means of delivery.
		It's promise of eliminating what is the most purely genocidal type of weapon from the world's arsenals as well as of destroying the facilities for producing these weapons, brings with it a set of novel legal issues.

	NDCF :: National Security Briefing
		Despite the end of the Cold War, America must still be ready to counter the four waves of NBC conflict with the majority of our efforts focused on the first.
		The Aum Shinri Kyo cult's chemical weapon attack in Japan was an example of a first wave attack, demonstrating that Chem/Bio weapons are still the "poor man's nuke" and can be mass-produced by many groups with great ease and little expense.
		The possibility of an NBC attack by a rogue state or terrorist group remains high and therefore must be considered a primary threat to national security.

		First of all, we are in total agreement that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
		More importantly, no one even wants Iran to have the technologies on its territory that could lead to a nuclear weapon.

	Is a Little Bighorn style trap being set in the Iraqi desert?
		The [suicidal] Jihad planners have had plenty of time to set an NBC trap, as we told them exactly where we were going to attack; and to make matters worse, when!
		In fact, the New World Order operatives could have had the NBC weapon(s) prepositioned, with the full knowledge that US and British forces have been under clandestine UN command for years.
		To wit, a tactical [“primary”] nuke device, detonated (called a NUDET) in a city building, with a secondary chemical-biological binary weapon staged at the right distance from NUDET ground-zero, could prove catastrophic; especially if the detonation was upwind of US/UK troops.
