Starting
in April 2014, Hard Rock Cafe locations across the United States and Europe
began serving a host of new offerings and updated fan favorites to more than 92
million guests across the brand that enter its doors each year. The brand
surveyed more than 3,000 guests in cafes across 14 cities around the world to
collect feedback on nearly 100 items from its existing and redesigned test
menus. The research, conducted by Cohen Research Group, included a side by side
comparison of current menu items and modified versions – taking into
consideration variations of items like bun texture, burger patty blends, French
fry cut and more. The process resulted in the addition of 30 new items and the
modification of 28 existing menu items.
Hard
Rock Cafe’s new and improved menu features Hard Rock’s authentic American,
made-from-scratch cuisine, a commitment to fresh ingredients and the signature
flair that guests can only get at Hard Rock. For more information about Hard

New Exhibit Featuring Las Vegas Lawman Ralph Lamb Will Open At The Mob Museum
Ralph
Lamb, arguably Las Vegas’ most legendary law enforcement figure, will be
celebrated with a new exhibition, The
Cowboy Sheriff, at The Mob Museum, the National Museum of Organized Crime and
Law Enforcement. Lamb will join Museum officials and tourism industry
representatives in inaugurating the exhibition at a press conference on
Tuesday, May 6, preceding the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority’s
annual National Travel and Tourism Week rally, to be held on the Museum’s front
steps that day at 3:45 p.m.
Objects
on display will include historic photographs, a belt buckle, handcuffs, a Colt
.38 revolver, Lamb’s cowboy hat, boots, a Winchester .30-30 rifle, an award
medallion, a custom bridle bit and a
saddle. Items have been loaned to the Museum by the Metro Museum as well as
Lamb and private collectors.
From
1961-1979, Sheriff Ralph Lamb enforced the law in Las Vegas, a city teeming
with organized crime. Having grown up on a ranch in rural Nevada, Lamb brought
an old-school approach to the job. He was not above getting physical with
hoodlums to make sure they followed the rules.
Lamb
developed an extensive network of tipsters who let him know when gangsters were
in town. Los Angeles Mob boss Johnny Rosselli was among those who received a
dose of the sheriff’s frontier justice. In 1966, Lamb let Rosselli know who was
in charge by roughing him up in a crowded casino and throwing him in jail.
When
Lamb learned that a planeload of reputed mobsters was flying in from Kansas
City, he and his deputies detained the group at the airport and sent them home.
Although
Lamb was known as “the Cowboy Sheriff,” the community’s first modern crime lab
and SWAT team were established during his watch. He also led the effort to
merge the Las Vegas Police Department and Clark County Sheriff’s Department in
1973, creating the current Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
In 1984,
Lamb joined a high-powered group of Las Vegas leaders who bid to move the
annual National Finals Rodeo from Oklahoma City to Las Vegas. The competition
has been held here ever since.
Ralph
Lamb’s legendary 18-year tenure as Clark County sheriff inspired the 2012-13
television drama, “Vegas,” starring Dennis Quaid.
Artifacts
After Hours
On
Thursday, May 8, from 7–9 p.m., the Museum will present “Artifacts After
Hours,” a Museum Members-only presentation series designed to give members an
inside look at the Museum’s extraordinary collection. At this event, Museum
staff will lead a presentation about Sheriff Lamb and The Cowboy Sheriff
exhibition. The event is free for Members and $5 for their guest (one guest per
member, please).
For
general information about the Museum, its exhibitions, special programming,
event rentals and admission, please call (702) 229-2734 or visit
www.TheMobMuseum.org.

Drai's Will Be HOT! New Beach Club Opening On Memorial Week-End
Drais Under Construction |
In a
city known for setting the standard for spectacular pools and parties, the bar
is about to be raised even higher (literally) this summer with the opening of
Drai’s Beach Club in Las Vegas, perched 11 stories above the Strip atop The
Cromwell. With unobstructed views of Las
Vegas Blvd. and never-ending sunshine on two levels, the 35,000 square foot
Drai’s Beach Club is both an architectural and visual wonder featuring a
360-degree experience with multiple pools, tantalizing cocktails, renowned DJs,
VIP luxury cabanas and top-of-the-line gourmet food. Adding to the already spectacular scenery are
ten, 35-foot palm trees (which were recently hoisted by crane to the roof
above) which will offer guests ample shade when desired.
The
wow factor for hotel guests begins the minute they disembark from the hotel’s
elevator where they will be met with never-before-seen views emanating from the
corner of Flamingo and Las Vegas Blvd. The sparkling new pools are the
highlight of the expansive rooftop venue, but the pools share equal billing
with the unique vantage point overlooking Caesars Palace and the Bellagio
fountains to the west, Bally’s and the Las Vegas Strip to the south and the
impressive row of hotels to the north.
Located directly above Las Vegas Blvd., Drai’s Beach Club will also be
home to an endless day of sun – never disappearing behind hotel towers or
buildings. While there are countless perks for staying at The Cromwell, having
exclusive guest access to the city’s most splash-worthy new pools is going to
be top of the list.
Split
into two levels, Drai’s Beach Club is designed to be sexy, sophisticated and
most importantly, social. No feature or
guest amenity has been forgotten and the Beach Club will cater to every level
of pool reveler:
• Two
lower level main pools
•
Central wet deck and perimeter seating
• 40
poolside day beds
• Nine
exclusive VIP Bungalows sharing five elevated pools
• 15
luxury mezzanine level cabanas with private pool with private shower/restroom
• Two
full bars
•
Elevated DJ booth
• Ten
35-foot natural palm trees
•
Unobstructed sunlight and views
•
Drai’s unparalleled service
“I’ve
been dreaming of building a day/night club for the past 15 years,” explains
Victor Drai. “With the creation of The
Cromwell, the opportunity finally arrived to make my dream a reality. The Beach Club and pools at Drai’s Beach Club
will be like nothing that exists in Las Vegas.
The size, scope and attention to detail, design and guest experience has
driven our concept. I always build my
venues so that there is a ‘wow’ factor from the minute you arrive. When a guest
steps off the elevator, they are going to marvel at what we have built and the
never before-seen-view will provide an unforgettable experience.”
Drai’s
Beach Club is located on the roof at The Cromwell, the Strip’s first
stand-alone boutique hotel and casino. Hotel guests of The Cromwell will enjoy
the opportunity to experience this one-of-a-kind rooftop pool daily from 11
a.m. – 6 p.m. The unique pool experience becomes Drai’s Beach Club Friday –
Sunday from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. and transforms into Drai’s Nightclub Thursday –
Sunday at 10 p.m.
Drai’s
Beach Club • Nightclub is set to open Memorial Weekend 2014. For more information, follow Drai’s at

Attention Libertarians In Nevada! Volunteer Fair & Open House Info!
Volunteer
Fair and Open House
Dear
Libertarians and Friends of Liberty,
It’s
time to assemble Team Liberty and take Nevada back! Over the last decade we saw
what happens when we sit back and don't get involved; Politicians drive Nevada
further in debt, they impose more regulations and take away our freedoms.
If
you don’t help grow the Libertarian Party, you have no voice and you don’t
matter. And we are just as ignorant as the Democrats and Republicans say we are
as they take away our freedoms, trample on our Civil Liberties and steal every
dollar out of our pocket saying “thank you please!”
It’s
up to YOU to tell the politicians enough!
It’s
up to YOU and me and the Libertarian Party to stand up and fight for Nevada!
The 2
Party system is broken; there have been both Republicans and Democrats in power
and there is no difference! The Libertarian Party is the only Party who can
save Nevada and get her back on track. If we don't get involved, we are guilty
of what the other 2 parties accuse us of; being ineffective and the only thing
we will ever amount to being is a spoiler in elections.
Join
us to make a stand against the 2 party system. The Libertarian Party of Nevada
(LPNevada) is hosting our first Volunteer Fair and Open house at our
headquarters in Las Vegas. Meet Libertarian leaders and activist who leading
the way for Liberty in Nevada. The purpose of this event is to get people like
you involved in growing the Libertarian Party. We will discuss the new
Divisional Structure, go over each Division and the opportunities available in
each Division.
Are
you concerned with the direction Nevada is heading?
So
are we, stop by these events and learn about all the amazing opportunities
available to build the Libertarian Party and get Nevada back on track! LPNevada
is recruiting leaders and activist for all Divisions. Prior to the Volunteer
Fair and Open House, you can view our website (www.lpnevada.org) and check out
these links:
·
Divisions: Visit lpnevada.org/about/divisions to learn about our
Divisions.
·
Help Wanted: Visit lpnevada.org/help to view some of the opportunities
available.
The
Libertarian Party of Nevada will provide complimentary refreshments and snacks.
We are hosting three events initially so hopefully you can attend one without a
scheduling conflict. These events are informal so you can mix and mingle and
ask us questions. The events coincide with National Volunteer Week and are
being held on:
·
Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.
·
Friday, April 11, 2014 – 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
·
Sunday, April 13, 2014 - 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Whether
you can donate 1 hour a month, 30 hours a week or if you would just like to
check out our office, I would like you to stop by so we can share our ideas
with you. There are many productive things you can do to help the Party and our
Candidates. One of my favorite quotes is from Edmund Burke, he said “Nobody
made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a
little.”
Liberty
does continue and with your help we can re-engage the R3VOLUTION, thank you for
your continued support!
Sincerely,
Brett
