  1. Oh I’ve definitely been at Winstar and seen that happen at a 1/2 game when the security gets involved for some idiot who snakes chips from player next to them. It is pretty rare though. And stupid.
  2. Haha. In all my trips I think I ate once at that PFChangs maybe because I had a gift card I needed to use. Only reason for the update is because it is a big space that sits right on the Strip so it’s noticeable. My go to spots are usually Noodles at Bellagio, Lotus of Siam, and Noodle Asia at Venetian.
  3. Twenty-year veteran P.F. Chang’s returns to the Las Vegas Strip after a five-month renovation of its flagship location at Planet Hollywood Resort. The restaurant spent the majority of 2020 shuttered, first due to the pandemic and later undergoing a pricey remodel of its 10,000-square-foot, two-level space. The flagship for its global restaurant empire allocated an estimated $685,000 in construction costs alone to overhaul the main dining room with multi-level seating for 400 diners, a 20-seat private dining room, and an open-air patio with fire pits facing the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and the Bellagio. The menu continues to offer perennial favorites of chicken lettuce wraps, orange beef, and Sichuan shrimp, but the Strip location will introduce “theatre at the table” presentations, allowing customers to upgrade certain entrees and desserts with smoke and fire along with dishes exclusive to Las Vegas later this year. https://vegas.eater.com/2021/4/15/22385634/p-f-changs-reopens-las-vegas-strip-renovation-planet-hollywood-resort
  4. I haven’t been drugged but I was approached inside Pure nightclub long time ago and this chick tried (unsuccessfully thankfully) to steal my Rolex off my wrist after chatting me up for awhile. Good lesson to learn and I bought a Swatch after that trip for all future Vegas trips.
  5. Picture in link at the bottom: Police say a Las Vegas woman who accompanied two men to their Strip hotel rooms stole expensive luxury watches from both in what are believed to be prostitution-related thefts. Windy Rose Jones, 23, was booked Monday at the Clark County Detention Center on two counts of felony grand larceny. Arrest reports for Jones indicate she was taken into custody after two men reported to police the thefts of watches from their hotel rooms at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas in February and March. One watch was valued at $45,000. The second was valued at $37,000. In the first case, police were called on Feb. 21 by Cosmopolitan security to the hotel for a man reporting he was “the victim of a grand larceny and possibly being drugged,” police wrote in an arrest report for Jones. The man told police he met a woman named “Rosa” inside the Cosmopolitan near the Vesper bar at the property. He then went to his room with the woman, and they drank margaritas. “While he and Rosa were in the room waiting on the room service (he) claims that the topic of sex was never on the agenda or part of the conversation,” police wrote in the reports. The man said “he does not remember much of the night due to falling asleep shortly after finishing his margarita,” police said. The man also told police “Rosa may have drugged him.” He awoke the next morning to find $1,500 in cash missing from his wallet. His Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch worth $37,000 was also gone. The man told police the woman had distinctive tattoos, including a lion tattooed on her thigh. In the second case, a man told police that on March 24 he met a woman on the Cosmopolitan casino floor. He invited her to his room and ordered room service. He noticed the woman had a large lion or tiger tattooed on her leg, police said. He awoke the next day to find his Rolex Daytona watch worth $45,000 and iPhone 12 missing. He also told police he may have been drugged. Police said as part of their investigation they examined “multiple photos of Jones from multiple prostitution related ads on the internet.” “The photos showed Jones with a large lion tattoo on her upper leg,” police wrote. Jones was arrested by Las Vegas police April 4. She declined to talk to investigators and asked for a lawyer. Police said in her arrest reports that they documented the existence of a lion tattoo on her leg as part of their investigation. Criminal complaints have not been filed in either case. Jones is currently out of custody. She is scheduled to appear in Las Vegas Justice Court in both cases in May for a status hearing on the filing of criminal complaints. https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/woman-accused-of-stealing-watches-valued-at-82k-from-men-on-strip-2329917/

  8. Will have to see what the gaming control board decides. Separately, Clark County meets next week to go over other proposed changes. Could be looking at some loosening regulations soon.

  10. Dr. Scott Gottlieb said Tuesday that people should be "cautious not to overinterpret" the Food and Drug Administration's decision to temporarily halt use of Johnson & Johnson's coronavirus vaccine. "Let's start with what the FDA didn't do," Gottlieb, the former FDA commissioner and current member of Pfizer's board of directors, said on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "They didn't revoke the emergency use authorization. They didn't order this off the market." "This was a requested pause, which is an awkward regulatory step but I think it reflects the level of caution on their part to not to appear to act too forcefully here," he said of the decision, which came after six women, out of millions vaccinated, developed blood clots. But Gottlieb predicted that the move will nonetheless "fuel the hesitancy" from some people to get a Covid vaccine. "Even if there isn't a causal relationship, even if this is exceedingly rare, I think we're going to see that whole conversation now get ignited on social media," he said. The single-dose vaccine is being paused "out of an abundance of caution" after six women in the U.S. developed a rare blood clotting disorder following their vaccinations, the FDA said Tuesday morning. All of those cases occurred in women between the ages of 18 and 48, with symptoms developing six to 13 days after they received the shot. Nearly 7 million doses of J&J's vaccine have been administered, making the adverse events "extremely rare," the FDA stressed in a joint statement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/13/scott-gottlieb-cautions-against-overreaction-to-johnson-johnson-covid-vaccine-pause.html
