Bichuwa The bichuwa or bichawa ( , ) is an Indian dagger with a loop hilt and a narrow undulating blade . It is named for its resemblance to the sting of a scorpion , for which the Hindi name is " bichuwa " . The weapon was based on the " maru " , or horn dagger created by the Dravidian s of south India , and many bichuwa have blades which retain the shape of buffalo horns . Early examples of the bichuwa come from the medieval southern empire of Vijayanagara . Being relatively easy to make , the bichuwa has persisted into the 20th century as a decorative dagger . Construction and use . The bichuwa usually has a narrow recurved blade and a simple looped handle which may be cut with chevrons . It generally measures just over 30 centimetres . The handle sometimes loops into a knuckleguard . The all - metal hilt is often cast in one piece . Medieval bichuwa from south India are typically decorated with the face of a protective " yali " ( demon ) on the hilt . Some have finials to the pommel or even protruding laterally as quillons or guards . A few bichuwa are forked or even double - bladed . The weapon ' s small size meant it was easily concealed in a sleeve or waist band . A bichuwa was often combined with a bagh nakha , either with the claws being added to the hilt of the bichuwa , or the blade being added to one of the finger loops of the bagh nakha . The former type tended to be larger than the latter . This combination weapon , known as a " bichuwa bagh nakha " , was used by the Maratha war - leader Shivaji to assassinate Afzal Khan in the 17th century . Shivaji ' s weapon was named " Bhawani " or " life - giver " , though some accounts suggest that this was the name of his sword .
1993 North Korean missile test A North Korean missile test occurred on May 29 and 30 , 1993 . North Korea fired a Nodong - 1 missile into the Sea of Japan ( East Sea of Korea ) , from a base in Hwadae County near Wonsan , North Korea . The target was a buoy floating in the Sea of Japan . The North Koreans were testing the missile so they could export it to Iran in return for oil . Japanese and United States officials waited a few days before disclosing the launch of the missile . Afterwards , North Korea reaffirmed its commitment to the Nuclear Non - Proliferation Treaty . The missile launches were the culmination of several months ' planning and bargaining with Iran , and what was suggested to be a plot between Iran and North Korea to develop weapons capable of striking Japan . It began in March 1993 , with North Korea receiving several shipments of " special metals " designated for the construction of missile launch pads . Later , a Russia n report indicated that North Korea was in the market for " missile specialists " in order to turn their missile production into a more profitable venture . Russian officials were further incensed after detaining a group of Russian nuclear physicists and rocket scientists attempting to enter North Korea . North Korea later pledged not to use Russian scientists and technicians , after being threatened with cut diplomatic ties by Russia . In January of that year , the commander of the Iranian Revolution Guard Corps , Mohsen Rezai , went to Pyongyang to finalize a 2 . 7 billion dollar purchase of around 300 Scud missile s from North Korea . Around the same time , the Iranian delegation came to watch the final Nodong - 1 tests and North Korea announced its withdrawal from the Nuclear Non - Proliferation Treaty . It was suspected upon successful testing of the missiles , Iran intended to trade oil for the Nodong missiles , as Iran is a primary contributor of North Korea ' s oil ( over 40 % ) .

He was a descendant of General John Archer Elmore . He received his education at South Carolina College . He became a prominent banker and married the daughter of a prominent family , Caroline Elizabeth Sims , on April 7 , 1852 . Shortly before the outbreak of the Civil War , he moved to Montgomery , Alabama Shortly after the creation of the Confederacy , President Jefferson Davis recommended Elmore as its first treasurer , a decision endorsed by the Secretary of the Treasury Christopher Memminger and ratified by the Provisional Confederate Congress . He took office on March 6 , 1861 . In his official capacity , Elmore had to receive , count , keep , and disburse government funds in cooperation with the Congress and other agencies . All requisitions drawn upon the national treasury had first to pass Elmore ' s inspection before they could assume the form of executive warrants . Even a warrant approved by the Comptroller and sanctioned by the Memminger was subject to Elmore ' s review before being paid . Memminger resigned his post as Secretary of the Treasury on July 18 , 1864 , and was replaced by fellow South Carolinian George Trenholm . However , Elmore initially stayed on as Treasurer under Trenholm . In August 1864 , Elmore accused John M .

When no retraction was forthcoming from the newspaperman , Elmore demanded a duel . The two opponents met on Belle Isle , and Elmore wounded Daniels with his first shot . One sympathetic former soldier later wrote , " The result of this duel occasioned as many hearty congratulations among the true Confederates in Richmond as if it had been the announcement of a victory by General Lee over the Federal army . " Shortly afterward , Elmore resigned his position as Treasurer and was replaced by John N . Hendren on October 10 , 1864 .

List of Schedule 2 substances ( CWC ) Schedule 2 substances , in the sense of the Chemical Weapons Convention , are chemicals that can either be used as chemical weapons themselves or used in the manufacture of chemical weapons but that have small - scale applications outside of chemical warfare and so can be legitimately manufactured in small quantities . An example is thiodiglycol , which can be used in the manufacture of mustard agents but is also used as a solvent in inks . Manufacture must be declared as their production is subject to declaration to the OPCW per Part VII of the " Verification Annex " , and they may not be exported to countries that are not party to the Convention As with the other schedules , they are sub - divided into Part A substances , which are chemicals that can be used directly as weapons , and Part B , which are precursors useful in the manufacture of chemical weapons . Chemicals that can be used as weapons , or used in their manufacture , but that have no , or almost no , legitimate applications as well are listed in Schedule 1 , whilst Schedule 3 is used for chemicals that also have widespread industrial uses . Guidelines for Schedule 2 . The following criteria shall be taken into account in considering whether a toxic chemical not listed in Schedule 1 or a precursor to a Schedule 1 chemical or to a chemical listed in Schedule 2 , part A , should be included in Schedule 2 :

Battle of Sanluri The Battle of Sanluri was fought on June 30 , 1409 between the armies of the Giudicato of Arborea ( a kingdom in Sardinia ) and the Catalan - Sicilian army of King Martin I of Sicily . The location was the fortified village of Sanluri . The Arborean army was led by " giudice " William III of Narbonne , and Martin commanded in person the Aragonese army . The Sardinian army was composed mostly of mercenaries , including the renowned Genoese crossbowmen and other units from France and northern Italy . There are few details about the battle . The Aragonese were less numerous though better trained , and managed to divide the Arborean army in two parts which were then destroyed separately . A contingent under William survived taking refuge in the castle of Monreale , in the near village of Sardara . Other Sardinian troops were captured in Sanluri and much of the population was slaughtered . Martin died a few days later in Cagliari , allegedly by malaria transmitted him by a Sanlurese mistress . The battle was not conclusive , but opened the way to the easy Catalan conquest of the " giudicato " of Arborea , which fell the following year .
