Art Bell

Arthur William "Art" Bell, III (n. 17 iunie 1945, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune⁠(d), Carolina de Nord, SUA – d. 13 aprilie 2018, Pahrump⁠(d), Comitatul Nye, Nevada, SUA) a fost un prezentator radio și autor american, cunoscut în primul rând ca unul dintre fondatorii și gazda originală a emisiunii radio Coast to Coast AM. De asemenea, el a creat și găzduit anterior o altă emisiune, Dreamland. Și-a anunțat semi-retragerea de la Coast to Coast AM în anul 2003, dar a fost gazda acestei emisiuni numeroase weekend-uri în următorii patru ani. Și-a anunțat retragerea sa de la emisiunile din weekend-uri la 1 iulie 2007, dar, ocazional, mai servește ca gazdă-invitat. Și-a motivat această ultimă retragere prin dorința sa de a petrece mai mult timp cu noua sa soție și cu fiica sa, născută la 30 mai 2007. El a adăugat că există posibilitatea de a reveni. Classic Bell a găzduit episoadele din Coast to Coast AM care au putut fi auzit în unele nopți de sâmbătă sub numele de Somewhere in Time. Bell a fondat și a fost proprietarul original al stației de radio din Pahrump, Nevada, KNYE 95,1 FM. Note Bibliografie Ronson, Jon.

Area 27 (Nevada National Security Site)

Area 27 is a division of the Nevada National Security Site. It occupies approximately 49 square miles (130 km2) in the south-central portion of the NNSS. A portion of Area 27 was originally known as Area 410. No tests of nuclear weapons took place in Area 27. History Area 27 was used for weapons assembly and staging. The Super Kukla Reactor Facility was built in Area 27 and operated from 1965 to 1978. A major U.S. concern in the Cold War was Soviet use of defensive tactical nuclear weapons. Nuclear-armed interceptors and anti-ballistic missiles could be used to intercept a U.S. attack. To simulate nearby nuclear explosions, the Super Kukla reactor produced an ultrahigh burst of prompt critical neutrons and gamma rays. This could be used to test the effects on weapons hardware. Super Kukla is now entombed in place at Area 27. Joint Actinide Shock Physics Experimental Research Area 27 is home to the Joint Actinide Shock Physics Experimental Research (JASPER) Facility. JASPER uses a two-stage high-energy shock gun to achieve shock pressures, temperatures, and strain rates similar to those attained in a nuclear weapon. It is specifically designed to conduct research using plutonium and surrogate materials as targets. Data from these experiments is used to determine material equations of state and to validate computer models of material response for weapons applications. JASPER experiments support the Stockpile Stewardship Program and complement subcritical experiments conducted in Area 1. The facility is located in a decommissioned weapons assembly complex and was established in 1999. By April 2003, qualification testing using non-nuclear materials was complete. By May 2007, a series of tests comparing new plutonium weapons pits with old ones had confirmed that the plutonium cores in US weapons stockpiles were less subject to deleterious aging effects than previously anticipated.

Area 2 (Nevada National Security Site)

Area 2 is a division of the Nevada Test Site in the Mojave Desert. The area is located 18 miles south-west of Area 51 in the Yucca Flat. History Testing began in July 1946 and was conducted intermittently until 31 October 1958, when President Eisenhower signed a moratorium with the former Soviet Union to stop testing. On 15 September 1961, testing at the Nevada Test Site resumed on a year-round basis. The Nevada Test Site is made up of 18 sites. On 25 May 1953, Grable was fired from a 280mm gun and produced a yield of 15 kilotons. Priscilla which produced a yield of 37 kilotons, was detonated on 24 June 1957. The Sedan Crater at Area 2 was created when a 104 kiloton explosive was fired on 6 July 1962. Area 2 was the site of 144 tests comprising 169 detonations. Shot "Gabbs" a detonation test, was intended for early 1993 but was cancelled in 1992 due to a pre-emptive stop of testing based around the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. The Nevada National Security Site provides historical tours yearly, which include visits to various locations on the site including the Area 2 Gun Turret. References
Arizona Charlie’s Boulder

Arizona Charlie’s Boulder Hotel & Casino – hotel i kasyno, położony przy Boulder Strip w Paradise, w stanie Nevada. Stanowi własność korporacji American Casino & Entertainment Properties. Historia Arizona Charlie’s Boulder (oraz siostrzany Arizona Charlie’s Decatur) powstał z inicjatywy rodziny Beckerów, inwestorów znanych z działalności na terenie Las Vegas. W styczniu 2000 roku American Casino & Entertainment Properties wykupiła za 43,3 miliony dolarów obiekt Sunrise Suites przy autostradzie Boulder Highway i nadała mu nazwę Arizona Charlie’s Boulder. W listopadzie 1997 roku inwestor Carl Icahn nabył większość kredytów hipotecznych Arizona Charlie’s Boulder, stając się głównym wierzycielem obiektu. Icahn próbował przejąć całkowitą kontrolę nad hotelem w drodze procesów o jego bankructwo. W 1998 Bruce Becker nie był w stanie spłacić 92 milionów dolarów pożyczki, którą zaciągnął u United Healthcare. W konsekwencji, nowym właścicielem Arizona Charlie’s Boulder został Carl Icahn i American Casino & Entertainment Properties (ACEP).

Arizona Charlie’s Decatur

Arizona Charlie’s Decatur – hotel i kasyno w Charleston Heights, w amerykańskim stanie Nevada. Stanowi własność korporacji American Casino & Entertainment Properties. Obiekt składa się z hotelu z 258 pokojami, a także kasyna o powierzchni 5.500 m². Grupę docelową Arizona Charlie’s Decatur stanowią lokalni mieszkańcy Las Vegas oraz jego okolic. Historia Arizona Charlie’s Decatur (oraz Arizona Charlie’s Boulder) powstały z inicjatywny rodziny Beckerów – działającej od lat na obszarach Las Vegas. W 1963 roku małżeństwo Beckerów podjęło się budowy kręgielni, Charleston Heights Bowling, z 36 torami oraz automatami do gier. Ich syn – Bruce Becker, wrócił do Las Vegas w 1971 roku i zajął się zarządzaniem Charleston Heights Bowling. Bruce podjął decyzję o rozszerzeniu kręgielni o kasyno. Jego nazwę zaczerpnięto od dalekiego krewnego rodziny Beckerów, showmana „Arizony” Charliego Meadowsa. Koszt budowy kasyna, otwartego w 1988 roku, wyniósł 18 milionów dolarów. W 1994 roku 31-letnia kręgielnia, a także pobliska pizzeria i supermarket zostały zniszczone, by zrobić miejsce dla ekspansji kasyna. Rozbudowa obiektu pochłonęła w sumie 40 milionów dolarów. W listopadzie 1997 roku inwestor Carl Icahn wykupił większość długów Arizona Charlie’s, stając się głównym wierzycielem obiektu. Icahn próbował przejąć kontrolę nad kompleksem na drodze procesu o bankructwo. Ostatecznie, w lipcu 1998 roku, w wyniku niemożności spłaty przez Bruce’a Beckera 92 milionów dolarów pożyczki u United Healthcare, Carl Icahn i korporacja American Casino & Entertainment Properties (ACEP) przejęli prawa własnościowe Arizona Charlie’s.

The northeastern central portion of the wilderness area contains a wide valley cut by numerous washes, while the east side is characterized by a series of deep washes, including Arrow Canyon with nearly vertical sides several hundred feet deep. Archeology There are extensive petroglyph panels on the rock walls of Pahranagat Wash, above, below, and in Arrow Canyon. Other evidence of prehistoric use includes agave roasting pits, shelter caves, rock alignments, lithic scatters, stone scrapers, and broken arrowheads. The Moapa Band of Paiutes still resides in the area just east of the Arrow Canyon Range. Wildlife Common wildlife found in Arrow Canyon Wilderness include California myotis, yellow bat, western red bat, hoary bat, desert five-spot, desert tortoise, desert bighorn sheep, chuckwalla, cactus wren, canyon wren, rock wren, and Ashash-throated flycatcher. Vegetation Common vegetation found in Arrow Canyon Wilderness include creosote bush, white bursage, mojave yucca, and barrel cactus, as well as blackbrush at higher elevations. Honey mesquite, catclaw acacia, and saltcedar are common in washes in the central and eastern portions of the Wilderness. The uncommon butterfly bush (Buddleja utahensis) is also quite common here.
