To date, 84 nations have signed the treaty, and 45 have ratified it. The historic UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, known as the nuclear ban treaty, was approved by 122 nations in 2017. We’ve made some incredible progress in the past couple years. Not everything in the current state of global nuclear weapons policy is doomsday and gloom. Like Stanislav Petrov, we can save the world from the prospect of nuclear war. Even just the smoke and soot from a nuclear war would plunge the world into darkness, causing plummeting global temperatures and the end of life on the planet. We’ve all got a stake in ensuring that the one planet we’ve got isn’t destroyed in a nuclear holocaust. To top it off, the Trump administration has even reportedly discussed conducting live nuclear tests for the first time since 1992. He’s also planning to let the New START Treaty between Russia and the United States expire in February 2021. It doesn’t help that President Trump has withdrawn the United States from most of the international arms control agreements that have deescalated tensions and prevented nuclear conflict - including the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (aka the Iran Deal), the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, and the Open Skies Treaty. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists’ Doomsday Clock is set at just 100 seconds to midnight, the closest we’ve ever been to a nuclear apocalypse in the clock’s history. Right now, the risk of nuclear war is the greatest it has been since the height of the Cold War. Most Americans don’t spend a lot of time worrying about nuclear weapons, even though millions of us live near nuclear facilities or even missiles themselves. He’s also expressed a desire to take the nuclear arms race to a new, deadlier stratosphere. ![]() Our current president has gleefully expressed his willingness to use nuclear weapons against both foreign adversaries and hurricanes. president could unilaterally decide to launch a nuclear weapon on a whim, without anyone else’s authority or approval. In the time that it took me to type those first few paragraphs, a sitting U.S. One such measure is for the United States to officially enact a “No First Use” policy, which would mean that the United States would never launch a nuclear weapon first in a nuclear conflict. So it may feel like talking about nuclear weapons is just the radioactive frosting on an apocalyptic cake.īut nuclear weapons pose one of the gravest threats to human survival, and there are concrete actions world leaders can take right now to make sure they’re never used again and eliminated for good. In 2020, we’ve dealt with everything from gender reveal parties sparking deadly wildfires to locust swarms, murder hornets, and a global pandemic. In Petrov’s honor, the world marks September 26 as the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons. His choice not to launch a nuclear weapon saved the world from the dreadful prospect of nuclear war. missile attack was imminent.įaced with the choice of whether to launch a submarine nuclear missile, Petrov made the split-second decision that the alert must have been an error.

Once you've created your account, just login 4. Under the Managed account option, select Create Account: 3. Visit the logmein website at: Tip: Do not download the Hamachi application from 3rd party download sites. It is a typical choice for simple corporate use cases, where a workstation needs connection to servers only. Hubs (servers) are connected to everyone else, spokes (workstations) are connected only to hubs, but not to each other. Logmein description of a hub-and-spoke network: This network type provides more strict control over network members in terms of who is connected to whom. They don't need to for Minecraft so why waste network traffic. The beauty of a mesh network is that traffic is sent back and forth between the server and clients but the clients no knowing about each other. Remember, the Minecraft server application will run on the server and players will use the Minecraft client on the clients. For this tutorial we're going to setup a 'hub-and-spoke network' which consists of hubs (servers) and spokes (clients). You only need to register once and none of your friends need to register at all. Then log in, setup your hamachi network and invite some friends along. All you need to do is create your own logmein account, which takes seconds. As luck would have it, Hamachi is free for up to 5 clients. The logmein website goes hand in hand with Hamachi, allowing you to create a new network and manage users. It will also prevent hackers and unwanted viruses from finding their way onto your computer. Using Hamatchi will save you the trouble of unwanted guests and griefers appearing on your server. In the case of Minecraft, Hamachi will let you create a mini network where you can all play Minecraft without the security risk of port forwarding or disabling your firewall completely. A VPN stands for a virtual private network, it's a way to connect several computers together over the internet for a private and safe networking solution. If you're not sure what a VPN is, let us explain. Hamachi is a safe and free VPN application from logmein that takes only minutes to setup. If you want to play Minecraft multiplayer (SMP) with your friends or family then we strongly recommend installing Hamachi. ![]() RiMS Racing has a niche of its own: engineering. Meanwhile, the TT Isle of Man games appeal to those who are into the Snaefell Mountain Course, the most ludicrous racing event in the world. Ride focuses on having a crap ton of bikes for you to ride on, being mostly a two-wheeled Gran Turismo. The MotoGP games feature all licensed racers and tracks from the world’s premier motorbike racing league. Not one for the casual gamer or someone that likes to collect vehicles, this is a genuine hardcore title.RiMS Racing suffers from a significant amount of pop-in.Įach of these motorbike games focuses on one specific feature to pretty much justify its existence. The constant need to focus on the upkeep and performance will either make it or break it for you. RiMS Racing is an absolutely unique combo of engineer simulation and road race action and a breath of fresh air in the bike sim marketplace. ![]() At times there was a bit of framerate choppiness, and it isn’t the most detailed environmental experience around, but overall I found this to be a smooth, half decent looking game. There are also plenty of fully licensed tracks and roads to experience, ranging from the Circuit Paul Ricard and Silverstone to careering through the Victoria Desert. You have to manually input a series of button presses to achieve well-timed pitstops which is another idea I really liked. And in career mode that means you knacker your bike too so the stakes are raised even higher. Just like the real high-speed sport upon which it is based, a slight clip of a kerb or straying onto a verge can result in disaster. Anyone used to some of the more forgiving Milestone games will find it a big leap. Tyres wearing out? Expect to get some road rash, and soon. And you really feel the effects of disintegrating or damaged parts. The braking – both front and rear can be controlled – is spot-on. There is a great physics engine at play, and a real sense of weight to the motorbikes. So, you know how to look after your trusty steed – what is the actual racing aspect of RiMS like? The answer is: tough, realistic, and rewarding. You can even use your earned Team Credits to get someone to do your bike maintenance for you. Even the bike parts are licenced, for goodness sake. There are bags of licensed gear to pick up from recognisable companies like Alpinestars. Real bike enthusiasts, or those savant tech guys that enjoy seeing how machinery works will absolutely love this aspect of the game. This is a novel and original idea – and adds a sense of accomplishment once you have had a tinker. Replacing stuff is about buying (and selling) parts, and then actually fitting them yourself, using button commands to do so. This is a fantastic idea.īrake pads are the first thing you learn about. You can even get live action updates when pausing the action that tell you how the various bits of machinery are coping under the intense race conditions. As you race, your mount breaks down gradually. You have to look after it, maintaining it the same way you would in real life. In career mode, you choose a bike, which then becomes your eternal companion throughout the game. And the game explores each of them in explicit, almost overwhelming detail, as we will discover. Ducati Panigale V4 R, Kawasaki Ninja ZX10-RR, MV Agusta – you get the idea. The dev doesn’t waste your time with oodles of weak-ass bikes. ![]() The selections are instantly recognisable two wheeled behemoths, even to a layman in the street. As such there are just eight motorcycles to choose from. Unlike a lot of racing simulations, RaceWard Studio have decided that less is more. but that doesn’t mean I am not impressed. I will admit to being slightly turned off by how in-depth RiMS is. But then treating that bike with the same level of respect, nurture and husbandry as someone would dish out to a beloved horse. This is one for anyone who has dreamed of owning a high performance motorcycle. RiMs is as niche a motorcycle based videogame as you will ever encounter during your time on Earth. ![]() First thing you get is a prompt to setup password for the unit.You can also set repeater signal strength to high medium low to set coverage.

The Scandinavian stage 1 multi-functional baby dock. I’m thinking I’ll spring for the toddler version (delaying the problem rather than solving it), but that’s an issue for another month.Ages 0-8 months. At this point, my chief concern is that the baby will outgrow his dock without falling in love with his crib. It’s so lightweight, I bring it around the house as a little portable bassinet - I’ll stash the baby in it wherever I am, well within sight. It doubles as a changing station, or a soft surface for when the baby needs tummy time. As long as you have a queen-size mattress it’ll probably fit your docked baby plus two adults. If you’re into co-sleeping, you can even bring the DockATot in bed with you. In a DockATot, they’re surrounded by bumper pillows which provide that cocoon-like sensation while, crucially, not posing a suffocation threat the way ordinary pillows do. It’s money very well spent.īabies like to feel snug, and many feel at sea in a crib. It doesn’t sound like much, and it’s not cheap ($175 or more, depending on the cover you choose), but my baby falls asleep easier and sleeps longer in his DockATot than anywhere else. More specifically, it’s a small mattress with side cushions about five inches high. From the name you can probably guess that the DockATot is a baby docking station. Of all the stuff I’ve bought or received since I had a baby - a crib, a bassinet, a mobile, a stroller, multiple carriers, a bouncer - the thing I’ve used the absolute most is the DockATot. I also roast my pecans in a sweetened butter to give them a golden brown finish. I start with a cinnamon spiced almond crust that’s pre-baked to give the tart some of crunch. Maybe it’s the thick puree of pumpkin that’s not for me, but I’m here to change all that with my Pumpkin Pecan Tart. And…I like pumpkin flavor, but there’s something so sad about the basic traditional pumpkin pie. However, I do like cheesecake and candied pecans and this “graham” cracker crust very much. Truth be told I am not a fan of Pumpkin Pie. We chose an assortment of berries, crushed and whole hazelnuts, and mint.Pumpkin Pecan Tart might just be the answer I have been looking for. Place into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set. Pour chocolate mixture into the cooled base and smooth it out as best you can with either an offset spatula or regular spatula.Transfer the melted chocolate along with the pumpkin purée, silken tofu, maple syrup, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and instant espresso powder into a high-speed blender and run until smooth.Once the water has come to a boil, lower it to a simmer and add the chocolate to the top of the double boiler, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula until melted. Prepare a double boiler * to melt the chocolate. While the crust bakes, prepare the filling.The crust will dry out and crisp up while it cools. Transfer the tart pan to a wire rack and cool until the crust reaches room temperature. Place the tart pan into the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until browned.Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the tart pan, being sure there are no holes or breaks present in the crust. Transfer the mixture to the greased tart pan.If it doesn’t stick, you can add water 1 teaspoon at a time until it does. When the crust is done it should stick together when pressed in between your fingers. Process until uniform, scraping down the sides as needed.

The former mayor also portrayed himself as the victim. In his radio interview on Wednesday, Giuliani reiterated that his team called the police on Cohen. I hear he was last seen running down the street in his bathrobe.

Giuliani quickly bolts, calling to his security detail in the hallway. The interview itself is inflammatory: “China manufactured the virus and let it out, and they deliberately spread it around the world,” says Giuliani, embracing a disproven internet conspiracy theory.

Pat Hitchcock was married for more than 40 years to Joseph O’Connell, who died in 1994. She also co-authored a book on her mother, who died in 1982, “Alma Hitchcock: The Woman Behind the Man.” (Alfred Hitchcock died in 1980). More recently, she worked for Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine, appeared at numerous film festivals and in numerous Hitchcock documentaries and contributed photographs and a foreword to “Footsteps in the Fog: Alfred Hitchcock’s San Francisco,” by Jeff Kraft and Aaron Leventhal. ![]() Hitchcock was a lively, witty actor with a heart-shaped face and her other acting credits included the TV sitcoms “My Little Margie” and “The Life of Riley” and several roles in the TV series “Alfred Hitchcock Presents.” She also had parts in her father’s “Stage Fright” and in his horror masterpiece “Psycho,” in which she plays an office colleague of Janet Leigh, who later in the film is famously stabbed to death in a motel shower. “I think he was having her go through what the audience went through.” “I think he was using her as the audience,” Pat Hitchcock, interviewed for a 1997 BBC special on her father, said of her character. Hitchcock’s character later sobs that she felt as if she was the one he might have killed, leading to suspicions about the murder of Granger’s wife. Unnerved by her resemblance to his murder victim - they wear similar glasses - he nearly chokes the guest to death. He has placed his hands on her neck, when he looks up and sees Pat Hitchcock staring back in horror. He turns up at a party attended by Granger and chats up an elderly woman about the best way to kill someone - strangulation. Walker duly carries out his side, strangling Granger’s wife on the grounds of an amusement park, and pressures Granger to honor the bargain. Pat Hitchcock plays the sister of a woman (Ruth Roman), with whom Granger is in love. The 1951 production starred Robert Walker and Farley Granger as strangers who meet on a train and agree - at least Walker thinks they agree - to a double murder: Walker will kill Granger’s wife, and Granger will kill Walker’s father.

Decibels are also used more generally to express the logarithmic ratio of two magnitudes of any unit, such as two electric voltages or currents (or analogous acoustic quantities). For example, a 60-dB, or 6-bel, sound, such as normal speech, is six powers of 10 (i.e., 10 6, or 1,000,000) times more intense than a barely detectable sound, such as a faint whisper, of 1 dB. In ordinary usage, specification of the intensity of a sound implies a comparison of the intensity of the sound with that of a sound just perceptible to the human ear. The decibel is essentially unit-less The A in dB (A) is not supported by ISO standards. It's not a unit because it's the logarithm of a quotient, that's why Lp and LW are both expressed in dB, each with a different reference. Expressed as a formula, the intensity of a sound in decibels is 10 log 10 ( S 1/ S 2), where S 1 and S 2 are the intensity of the two sounds i.e., doubling the intensity of a sound means an increase of a little more than 3 dB. dB and dB (A) dB (abbreviation for decibel) is the 'unit' for both pressure and power level.
