    LIMITED TEST BAN TREATY
    August 5, 1963 - Britain, America and Russia

    Britain, America and Russia signed a Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty at Moscow to prohibit nuclear weapons tests "or any other nuclear explosion" in the atmosphere, in outer space, and under water. Underground nuclear explosions must not cause "radioactive debris to be present outside the territorial limits" their own country. The nuclear powers thus demonstrated a common goal to "an end to the contamination of man's environment by radioactive substances." The treaty was the result of over eight years of negotiations resolving issues of verification and deep-seated differences in attitudes to arms control and security. A total of 108 countries had signed before the LNTB Treaty entered into force 10 Oct 1963.

    PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH
    August 5, 2001 - United States

    President George W. Bush got a deluxe, six-hour physical carried out by 14 doctors his first since taking office. Apart from having a few skin lesions removed, the physicians deemed him to be in excellent health and liable to stay that way for the rest of his presidency. The president sneaks the occasional cigar, but it doesn’t seem to have affected him much.

Make sure lighting doesn't create a glare on your screen. When spending long periods at your keyboard, take a break now and then to rest your eyes to reduce fatigue. Also, don't forget to blink. Your eyes need to stay lubricated to feel comfortable.

LISTING INFORMATION :

Website preview thumbnail for : Park City Magazine
Was the Lodestar Magazine’s first issue was published in 1977, named in reference to the silver mining heritage that still formed much of Park City, Utah’s identity. The mines had been in decline for decades and so with it the community. In those days, our first ski resort had only recently opened and a quaint historic home just off Main Street would only set you back a few thousand dollars. With the addition of two more ski resorts, however, winter recreation eventually became the new “lodestar,” generating the silver that revitalized our local economy. As our community grew and evolved, so did the magazine, and in 1989 we officially changed our name to Park City Magazine. Our website brings you interesting and informative articles on local arts and culture, dining, business, shopping, real estate, travel and recreation.
