FEATURED EXHIBIT: Jewels of Titanic Fifteen of the most prestigious artifacts recovered from the wreck site of Titanic have been gathered into one of the most dazzling collections ever assembled and are on display now! As part of a three-city tour, Jewels of Titanic, presented by Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition, features diamonds, sapphires, pearls and gold jewelry that once belonged to some of Titanic’s wealthiest passengers. Jewels of Titanic shares the story of the jewelry’s discovery, underwater recovery, mysterious lineage and the influence these artifacts have in today’s pop culture. For more than 100 years, the mystique of R.M.S. Titanic’s sailing and subsequent sinking has captured the world’s imagination. Hailed as the most luxurious ocean liner the world had ever seen, Titanic’s manifest for the doomed maiden voyage had some of wealthiest and most well-known individuals of the day. As the Ship sank beneath the icy waters of the North Atlantic, she claimed more than 1,500 lives and took all the treasures she carried on board to a watery grave 2.5 miles beneath the ocean surface. These priceless items were once thought to be lost forever. However, 75 years after the sinking, Premier Exhibitions, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary, RMS Titanic, Inc., the salvor-in-possession of the wreck site and producers of the remarkable Titanic exhibitions, embarked on the first recovery operation to Titanic. Among the twisted steel, murky water and unidentifiable objects was an unmarked leather Gladstone bag whose contents became some of the most remarkable artifacts ever recovered – the Jewels of Titanic. Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition is located at Luxor Hotel & Casino. Open daily from 10am to 10pm, tickets are available at the Luxor Box Office or call 702-262-4400. The Jewels of Titanic exhibit is included in the general admission ticket. 14

Dale Chihuly’s Works of Art From weaving glass in tapestries to being one of the most prolific contemporary glass artists today, Dale Chihuly leaves a beautiful trail through the Las Vegas Valley. His career spans decades and his chosen medium has taken him and his art around the globe. Chihuly has just released his latest book titled, “Chihuly Silvered,” and it is a simply fantastic addition to his catalog of printed work. The book is something of a piece of art in itself, with the artist choosing approximately 125 or so of his favorite pieces to feature. “There are a lot of bright and colorful ones,” said Chihuly, “and there are some that are just white that aren’t so colorful.” The process of “silvering” glass is the same as mirror making. “It’s something I tried and I really liked it, so I’ve been
18
putting a lot of energy towards silvering pieces,” said Chihuly. He began working with the process after he had studied in Italy under master glass blowers when he was a young artist. “What I like most about glass is that light goes through it,” said Chihuly. “It’s different than any other material in that way…The idea that sunlight or artificial light can go through it is what makes it luminous in a way that no other material is.” Chihuly creates pieces that range in scale from something to fit on a shelf to grandiose installations using materials ranging from glass to ice to even incorporating neon into his work. He creative ideas have taken him all over and his work can be seen in Vegas in the lobby ceiling of the Bellagio, and at his gallery in City Center at Crystals Place.

Ways Vegas Has Spoiled Us All By Scott Roeben
Here’s today’s revelation: Las Vegas has spoiled us all. Each time you think the bar’s been raised as high as it can go, Sin City raises it again, and seriously, we’re spoiled. Here’s how. 1. Vegas is a 24/7 town. It’s amazing how quickly you can get used to those hours. Any time, day or night, you’re likely to find your favorite casino, restaurant or hot spot open for business. 2. Unbelievable restaurants. Every celebrity chef in the world has a Vegas restaurant. With the best ingredients, the greatest variety of cuisines and prices, no appetite is too big for Las Vegas. 3. Free valet parking. Visit another city and see how quickly the cost of simply parking adds up! 4. Drinking on the sidewalk. Few places in America allow you to purchase alcohol and walk down the street carrying an open container. In Vegas, the party’s portable. 5. Free liquor. Speaking of alcohol, when you’re gambling, much of the liquor served in casinos is free. Spoiled! 6. Spectacle. Things in Vegas happen on a grand scale. The dancing fountains at Bellagio, the tallest freestanding observation tower in the U.S. (the
Stratosphere), fireworks launched from multiple hotel towers on holidays. In Vegas, it’s go big or go home. 7. The weather. Sure, Vegas can get toasty in the summer, but compared to snow storms and torrential rain, Las Vegas weather is picture perfect (the city averages 294 sunny days per year). 8. Weird things to do. In Las Vegas, you can visit the Zombie Apocalypse store, operate a bulldozer, fire a machine gun, visit the Pinball Hall of Fame and take a Stripper 101 class, and you’re just getting started. 9. Eye candy. From showgirls to the guys at Chippendales, to bartenders and buskers, Las Vegas is filled with gorgeous people. Just one of the things that makes it so difficult to leave. 10. Unlimited Cirque. Many towns don’t even have one Cirque du Soleil show. Vegas has an endless supply. 11. Views. They take our breath away and put other skylines to shame. Sorry, other cities, the truth hurts. 12. Loyalty club perks and comps. Casino players club cards are so common, many take them, and the perks they provide, for granted. 13. Everybody performs in Vegas eventually. The biggest names in entertainment end up on the stages of Las Vegas, for one-offs or residencies. 14. It’s the service. Las Vegas is a service-oriented town, and once you’ve experienced what it’s like to be pampered, including friendliness and promptness, it’s rough returning to the real world. 15. Free money. When people go to Disneyland, do they ever gripe about leaving with less money than they brought? Exactly. Spoiled.

the part of the entertainers, but they sound fantastic too. As the lights dim, and the audience begins to quiet down the show starts with a voice over the loudspeaker introducing everyone to what the evening will entail, bringing the first act on stage. Country Superstars consists of a variety of performers and you will have the chance to see them in all their glory. There isn’t a bad seat in the house, and as the lights come up and the
energy starts to emit from the stage you know that you’ll be in for a treat. On the night of this particular show, “Tim McGraw” kicks everything off with his cowboy cut voice and really gets the crowd excited. Singing hits like, “I like it, I love it, I want some more of it,” the McGraw impersonator makes a great first impression on the crowd of country music fans. He continues to pull from McGraw’s catalogue and play upbeat hits to popular ballads like, “Live Like You Were Dying.”
Next up for your viewing pleasure is “Shania Twain.” She hits the stage with a force that you know you’re going to have a smile while watching her perform. Not slowing the pace of where the show has already taken you, “Shania” cuts to “You’re Still The One,” and everybody loves it. She reacts to the cheering crowd, and playfully interacts with the guitar player making the show a little sexier than what it was just a few minutes ago. “Wynonna Judd” takes the stage after “Shania” does her set, and the audience is thrilled. Not only is the real Judd familiar in people’s minds because of her recent performances on television’s “Dancing With The Stars,” but Country Superstars’ “Wynonna” takes it back to where it all started with songs such as “Mama He’s Crazy,” and “Grandpa Tell Me ‘Bout The Good Old Days.” She really knows how to work the crowd, and plays into the character she is playing undoubtedly. This Wynonna really brings it home. The backup band for these singers
can’t be forgotten about by any means either. These guys know how to rock with a capital “R.” The guitarist plays licks that only a true pro can do, while the drummer, bassist and keys player keep time without missing a note. “Big And Rich” perform next, much to the delight of the audience and are as energetic and full of life as ever. Playing hits like, “Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy,” and “Comin’ To Your City,” the crowd sings loudly and interacts with the guys on stage without pause. If there were a dance floor in this theater, it would be full and you can count on that. Whether you are visiting Las Vegas for the first time, or you are a seasoned guest, know that you are in good company at Country Superstars. This is the show that you want to see as a fan of contemporary country music, with an intimate setting inside a theater without a bad seat in the house. So, be sure to make your way to the V Theater in Planet Hollywood, and get your tickets tonight!
VEGAS INSIDER in a very interactive and contemporary way. For example, visitors can shoot a simulated tommy gun, listen to real FBI surveillance tapes on wiretapping equipment and take part in FBI weapons training.
We caught up with Jonathan Ullman, the Executive Director & CEO at The Mob Museum, the National Museum of Organized Crime & Law Enforcement, to ask for some inside scoop on Las Vegas for our readers. Today: What do you find most unique about this town? Jonathan: Las Vegas has a fascinating juxtaposition of world-class entertainment with rich history. We are one of the most recognizable cities in the world, but our city also has an extraordinary amount of natural beauty to it. You get a glimpse of it every time you see the lights of the Vegas skyline against the backdrop of the mountains. Today: Where do you eat in Vegas at night? Jonathan: Le Thai – it’s one of those great places where you never know who you may run into, and with spectacular food and the energy of Downtown, it’s a win-win for both cuisine and ambiance. Today: What “Vegas Tradition” haven’t you done yet? Jonathan: I have yet to take the photo in front of the iconic “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign. It’s a must-do for both tourists and locals, and I just haven’t marked that off the list yet. Today: Best tip for tourists? Jonathan: Take a few hours and go to The Mob Museum! You get a real understanding for Las Vegas history just by visiting it, as it’s on the National Register of Historic Places and a place of true cultural significance to Las Vegas. While the Strip may be the face of Las Vegas, Downtown is its foundation, and The Mob Museum, housed in the original Federal courthouse, is a great way to embrace that. This information is presented 60
Today: Where do you see the most art in Las Vegas? Jonathan: The 18B Arts District in Downtown Las Vegas has so much to offer from so many talented artists. From stone-carving to large-scale paintings, and from both established and emerging artists, there is always something new to explore. If you’re interested in viewing what’s next for the arts community, should make a point to spend some time there and see the collaborations in the local arts movement and what it produces. Today: Hidden treasure in Las Vegas is? Jonathan: Red Rock Canyon is a breathtaking, beautiful sojourn just outside of the city. Whether you’re an accomplished hiker or just want to take a drive to admire the natural rugged beauty of the Southwest, Red Rock is simply awe-inspiring. Today: Time to plug, tell us about The Mob Museum: Jonathan: The Mob Museum is a world-class destination in Downtown Las Vegas dedicated to presenting an exciting and authentic view of the Mob’s impact on Las Vegas history and its unique imprint on the world. The Museum tells the story of organized crime and law enforcement as it never has been told before. In a bold and contemporary style, The Museum takes you through the historical battle through engaging interactive exhibits, high-tech theater presentations and more than 600 artifacts, the largest collection of Mob and related law enforcement memorabilia under one roof – including the wall from the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre of 1929, the barber shop chair in which Albert Anastasia was murdered and the fully-restored Federal courthouse where the Kefauver trials were held. Since opening, The Mob Museum has been named one of “20 Places Every American Should See” by Fox News and Budget Travel magazine; “Las Vegas’ Best New Attractions for 2012” by Travel + Leisure magazine; “9 Reasons to Visit Las Vegas” by CNNgo and “Best Museum” by Nevada magazine. The Museum also holds guest presentations and visiting exhibitions, and is a great venue to hold special events. The Museum is open from 10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.
