Metropolis Records: Front 242 (705 words) |
 | By 1998, Front 242 began to rejuvenate and came together for a European tour in the winter (which was brilliantly recorded for the live album Re:Boot) and a North American tour during the summer. |
 | Both were the first Front 242 releases for Metropolis Records, but they clearly showed that Front 242 remained just as vital as they were at their inception nearly two decades ago. |
 | Front 242 have always kept a powerful image as a 'live' band with a high profile on stage using live sequencing (no play-back tapes), synthetisers, screens and a dynamic show. |

The Meaning of Resolution 242 (1097 words) |
 | On November 22, 1967, the UN Security Council unanimously adopted Resolution 242, establishing the principles that were to guide the negotiations for an Arab-Israeli peace settlement. |
 | The ultimate goal of 242, as expressed in paragraph 3, is the achievement of a "peaceful and accepted settlement." This means a negotiated agreement based on the resolution's principles rather than one imposed upon the parties. |
 | It took nearly a quarter century, but the PLO finally agreed that Resolutions 242 and 338 should be the basis for negotiations with Israel when it signed the Declaration of Principles in September 1993. |
