Fissile Material Cut - off Treaty The Fissile Material Cutoff Treaty ( FMCT ) is a proposed international treaty to prohibit the further production of fissile material for nuclear weapons or other explosive devices . The treaty has not been negotiated and its terms remain to be defined . According to a proposal by the United States , fissile material includes high - enriched uranium and plutonium ( except plutonium that is over 80 % Pu - 238 ) . According to a proposal by Russia , fissile material would be limited to weapons - grade uranium ( with more than 90 % U - 235 ) and plutonium ( with more than 90 % Pu - 239 ) . Neither proposal would prohibit the production of fissile material for non - weapons purposes , including use in civil or naval nuclear reactors . In a 27 September 1993 speech before the UN , President Clinton called for a multilateral convention banning the production of fissile materials for nuclear explosives or outside international safeguards . In December 1993 the UN General Assembly adopted resolution 48 / 75L calling for the negotiation of a " non - discriminatory , multilateral and international effectively verifiable treaty banning the production of fissile material for nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices . " The Geneva based Conference on Disarmament ( CD ) on 23 March 1995 agreed to establish a committee to negotiate " a non - discriminatory , multilateral and internationally and effectively verifiable treaty banning the production of fissile material for nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices . " . However , substantive negotiations have not taken place . In 2004 , the United States announced that it opposed the inclusion of a verification mechanism in the treaty on the grounds that the treaty could not be effectively verified . On November 4 , 2004 , the United States cast the sole vote in the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly against a resolution ( A / C . 1 / 59 / L . 34 ) calling for negotiation of an effectively verifiable treaty . The Bush Administration supported a treaty but advocated an ad hoc system of verification wherein states would monitor the compliance of other states through their own national intelligence mechanisms . On April 5 , 2009 , U . S . President Barack Obama reversed the U . S . position on verification and proposed to negotiate " a new treaty that verifiably ends the production of fissile materials intended for use in state nuclear weapons . " On May 29 , 2009 , the CD agreed to establish an FMCT negotiating committee , However , Pakistan has repeatedly blocked the CD from implementing its agreed program of work , despite severe pressure from the major nuclear powers to end its defiance of 64 other countries in blocking international ban on the production of new nuclear bomb - making material , as well as discussions on full nuclear disarmament , the arms race in outer space , and security assurances for non - nuclear states . Pakistan justified its actions when Chairman joint chiefs General Tariq Majid argued that " a proposed fissile material cutoff treaty would target Pakistan specifically .
Lucius Julius Caesar ( consul 90 BC ) Lucius Julius Caesar ( ca . 135 BC – 87 BC ) was a consul of the Roman Republic in 90 BC . He was involved in the downfall of the plebeian tribune Lucius Appuleius Saturninus in 100 BC . He was elected praetor for 94 BC without having been quaestor and aedile . Later he became governor of Macedonia . During his consulship , he defeated the Samnites . Lucius proposed legislation ( one of the " Leges Juliae " or " Julian laws " ) granting Roman citizenship to allies who didn ’ t participate in the Social War against Rome in 90 BC . Later he became censor and due to the success of the Julian Law , became responsible for dividing new citizens into voting districts . His colleague in this was a former consul , Publius Licinius Crassus Dives ( consul 97 BC ) ( father of triumvir , Marcus Licinius Crassus ) . Lucius and his brother , Gaius Julius Caesar Strabo Vopiscus , were killed together in 87 BC at the beginning of the Civil War by partisans of Gaius Marius . They died fighting in the streets . According to Livy , their heads were exposed on the speaker ’ s platform . His children were the Lucius Julius Caesar who was consul in 64 BC and Julia Antonia .
Orban Orban , also known as Urban ( died 1453 ) , was an iron founder and engineer from Brassó , Kingdom of Hungary ( today Braşov , Romania ) who cast superguns for the Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453 . Orban was Hungarian according to the majority of sources , while some scholars also mention his potential German ancestry . Alternative theories suggest his Wallachian roots and he was described by Laonikos Chalkokondyles with the unclear term " " Dacian " " . In 1452 he originally offered his services to the Byzantines , but emperor Constantine XI could not afford his high salary nor did he possess the materials necessary for constructing such a large siege cannon . Orban then left Constantinople and approached the Ottoman sultan Mehmed II who was in preparations to siege the city , claiming that his weapon could blast ' the walls of Babylon itself ' . Given abundant funds and materials , the engineer built the gun within three months at Adrianople , from which it was dragged by sixty oxen to Constantinople . In the meantime , Orban also produced other cannon instrumental for the Turkish siege forces . The bombard technology which mostly German technicians drew at first for the Hungarian Army had been established between 1400 and 1450 all over the Western Europe , transforming the siege warfare , with some pieces like the Faule Mette , Dulle Griet , Mons Meg and the Pumhart von Steyr still extant from the period . Urban , along with an entire crew , was probably killed during the siege when one of his superguns exploded , then not an unusual occurrence . A modern author speculated that " he could have been German too " based on other gun founders serving in the Royal Hungarian Court .

She earned five battle starts for her service . During various cruises across the Pacific , she ranged as far north as Barrow , Alaska , and as far south as Taka Atoll in the Marshall Islands . On 1 July 1955 , she was renamed " Steuben County " ( LST - 1138 ) ( q . v . ) after counties in Indiana and New York . She was struck from the Navy List on 1 February 1961 and sold to Zidell Explorations , Inc . , Portland , Oregon , on 11 August 1961 . Zidell had by that time expanded from shipbreaking into building barges with steel recovered from decommissioned ships , including " Steuben County " .

Hatf - I Hatf I ( ) is a subsonic battlefield range ballistic missile ( BRBM ) which entered service with the Pakistan Army in the early 1990s . It is deployed as an artillery rocket and has been replaced by the improved Hatf - IA and Hatf - IB , which have a maximum range of 100 km . Hatf is an Arabic word meaning " " Deadly " " or " " Vengeance " " . The name comes from the sword of Muhammed , Al - Hataf Development and design . Hatf I was designed in the 1980s as a highly mobile missile for tactical use . The design is said to have been derived from the second - stage of the French Eridan missile system . Its major use is as an unguided general bombardment weapon , to be fired across a battlefield or at a general target area . If properly aimed , it can hit within several hundred meters of the target area . The missile is low cost and easy to produce and maintain in large numbers . The Hatf I missile development program dates back to the 1980s . The Hatf - I was officially revealed by Pakistani officials in 1989 and it is believed to have entered service in 1992 . The Hatf I has a range of approximately and can carry a 500 kg conventional or non - conventional warhead . As it is unguided , it should be considered a long - range artillery shell , with the location of the impact depending upon the proper direction , angle of launch and the ability of the missile to fly straight . The Hatf - I is deployed with high explosive or cluster munitions , although it can theoretically carry a tactical nuclear weapon . The missile has a diameter of 0 . 56 m and is 6 m in length . It uses a single - stage solid propellant rocket motor . The Hatf IA and Hatf IB are upgraded versions with improved range and accuracy . The Hatf IA increased maximum range to 100 km by using an improved rocket motor and lighter materials in the missile ' s construction . The dimensions and the payload capacity remain the same . Hatf - IA is believed to have entered service in 1995 . The Hatf IB represents the final evolution of the Hatf I missile system . It includes an inertial guidance system that considerably improves the accuracy of the missile and is otherwise identical to the Hatf IA , retaining the maximum range of 100 km and payload of 500 kg . The inertial guidance system allows the missile to be used as an artillery rocket against enemy military encampments or storage depots etc . The missile system is designed to be used like an artillery system , with 5 - 6 missiles fired simultaneously at the target area . Being a ballistic missile the Hatf - IB would reach its target much quicker than an ordinary artillery shell giving the target little warning to take evasive action . Hatf - IB was first flight tested in February 2000 . All current Hatf - I missiles have been upgraded to Hatf - IB standard as of 2001 . The system is operational with Pakistan ' s armed forces .
