In a recent issue of Time magazine, there's a picture of "Old Vegas". It's titled Sin City, circa 1955, and it's from the Life.com gallery of pictures. I recognize the Golden Nugget but not much else. Seems to me the GN should be on the right side of the picture. Can you help identify the other casinos/signs in the picture? Thank you.

I read chef and TV host Gordon Ramsay opened a restaurant in a "Las Vegas casino" in May. That was pretty much all the article said. Where and what casino?

Now that O'Sheas has closed, what is the leprechaun up to?

I was reading an advertisement for M Life recently and noted that it did not list Circus Circus as a participating property. As I recall, Circus Circus became part of the MGM empire when they merged with Mandalay. Does Circus Circus have its own players club? Or are they not worth mentioning in an M Life advertisement?

Hundred dollar bills in Vegas are as abundant as snow in MN in winter. How many counterfeit bills are found by the casinos each year?

Just curious as to the progress on the Golden Gate remodel and tower project. When is it projected to be done and is it on schedule?

Caesars is spending in excess of $500 million on the Linq project and is now eyeing Toronto as a potential site for a new resort. My question is, with all this new building going on why did they let the Margaritaville Hotel & Casino project die in Biloxi? After four years it is still just a huge slab of concrete on the beach. Grand Biloxi is a poor substitute and does about half the business of the Beau Rivage or Hard Rock (just one mile down the road) on a normal weekend.

I have been coming to Las Vegas 3-4 times a year for 20 years and avoid the Strip at all costs. I like to stay at the locals casinos (South Point, Stations, Ellis Island, etc.) Are there any stats on how many out-of-towners do as I do?

Your QOD of May 17 spoke to the impact of the new Ohio casinos in Detroit. However, the new casino in Cincinnati may have a bigger impact on the Indiana casino business as there are like two or three casinos within minutes of Cincinnati. Wouldn't Indiana feel a greater impact?

Now that pool season has begun, is there a health code regarding bringing your own food, snacks, soda, water, etc. into a pool area? Friends of ours were staying at Tahiti Village (time-share) last week and were not allowed to take snacks, soda, water into the pool area. Their bags were searched everytime and they could only purchase these items on the premises. They were cited a health code, but it had never happened before. New health code, or a scam?
