• Dancehall's New Commando

The two combined to form 'Major Lazer', a fictional Jamaican cartoon commando that is seen on the artwork of their first dancehall album together.Outside of combining on MIA's last album, the two come from different musical backgrounds - Switch being a noted remix DJ and Diplo a producer that helped popularise the Brazilian baile funk genre, which combines samples and lewd lyrics in Portuguese. Both, however, share a love for Jamaican music, which is heard on the Major Lazer project and the first album, Guns Don't Kill People ... Lazare Do, which was released on June 16. Despite Major Lazer's intimidating look on the album cover, his mission is to get people moving, and his weapon is dancehall music. Diplo and Switch arrived in Jamaica last year, spending time in the Tuff Gong Studios i...

• Special Operations Commando Raids and Enemy Hors de Combat

From a strategic perspective, planners worried that Scud missile attacks might provoke an Israeli armed response, which could dramatically broaden the conflict's scope.4 Hence, in early 2003, CENTCOM deployed SOF teams to Iraq to conduct commando raids and destroy Scud launch sites.5 The missions required that SOF teams be heavily armed yet highly mobile. For wounded defeated enemies, GC I requires evacuation only if possible within the limits of battlefield operations.87 But again, SOF teams cannot leave hors de combat in environmental conditions with virtually no chance for survival.88 Hors de combat status therefore provides understandable and realistic standards of treatment for defeated enemy soldiers during commando raids.

• Commando Style

What's going on? First, Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay tweaked the War on Terror, and now You Don't Mess With the Zohan takes on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Who knew that mainstream comedies could be so geopolitical? And who ever expected Adam Sandier to lead the way? As Zohan Dvir, an Israeli commando whose secret desire is to cut and style hair, Sandier is like a weird mix of Warren Beatty in Shampoo, Mike Myers in Austin Powers, Eric Bana in Munich, Po in Kung-Fu Panda and...who am I leaving out, oh yeah, Borat. The accent alone would send a chill up the spine of your average Hezbollah terrorist. But Zohan also has some mad skillz. You've heard of one-hand push-ups? He does no-hands push-ups. And he could poke your eye out with his pelvic pumps.

• Manfred Gans, Commando for British in World War Ii

Chemical engineer Manfred Gans spoke from time to time about his World War II experiences as a German Jew fighting the Nazis with the British. School and synagogue groups in Bergen County heard his compelling story: Sent to live in England as Hitler was rising in power, Mr. Gans was recruited by an elite commando unit created by Lord Mountbatten. Using the name Gray to protect his identity, he saw action throughout the European continent and interrogated captured German troops to collect intelligence for the British. At war's end, he found his parents at the just-liberated Terezin Concentration Camp, in what is now the Czech Republic.

• Commando has Potential, Also Pitfalls

Twenty-one years after the first "Bionic Commando" hit the NES, Capcom releases a sequel that both delights and disappoints. No longer an 8-bit, 2-D side-scroller, this third-person shooter swings and zips through vertical and horizontal 3-D environments.

• James F!@#$%^ Friedman; Go Commando

In typical [Friedman] form, besides [Tom Vek]'s track, dance-punk moguls Out Hud's minor masterpiece "It's For You," remixes of Bloc Party and by The Rapture, there are less genre-defined picks: Ray Mang and Foolish Felix's housey dub "Who Said," PJ Pooterhoots' smorgasbord of scratch and blurp, "Milky Rippers," and Pittsburgh's most intriguing export, cinephile synth rockers Zombi, whose "Sapphire" provides Go Commando's gracious, widescreen finale.
