paris hotel las vegas
Paris Las Vegas is a hotel and casino located on the famed Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, USA , that is owned and operated by Harrah's Entertainment. As its name suggests, its theme is the city of Paris in France; it includes a 1/2 scale, 540 foot (164.6 m) tall replica of the Eiffel Tower, a neon sign in the shape of the Montgolfier balloon, a two-thirds size Arc de Triomphe and a replica of La Fontaine des Mers. The front facade of the building suggests the Paris Opera House and the Louvre. .Love is in the air literally. For the ultimate romantic setting, there's no need to travel across the globe to capture the feeling. The Eiffel Tower, located in the heart of the Las Vegas strip, is a replica about half the size of the original in France. The two vary in height, but there are many similarities between them. Both have an enclosed observation deck for safety as well as a glass elevator to admire the stunning vistas on the way to the top. The Eiffel Tower experience allows you to ride up 460 feet above ground and take in breath taking panoramic views.
Placed in the heart of the famous Las Vegas Strip, This Parisian-themed resort transports you to one of Europe's most romantic city. The $785 million Paris Las Vegas is designed to bring the spirit, excitement and savoir faire of the City of Paris to Las Vegas.
An added bonus is the Eiffel Tower restaurant on the 11th floor. Be sure to plan ahead if you would like to dine there. The restaurant is available by reservation only.
The comfortable rooms and suites have the French feel with distinctive European furniture and warm decorations. All the accommodation units are spacious and well equipped with an array of modern facilities.
The 24-acre Paris Las Vegas features authentic replicas of famous French landmarks, including the Arc de Triomphe and the Hôtel de Ville, as well as façades of the Paris Opera House and The Louvre.
The resort’s signature replica is a 50-story half-scale Eiffel Tower, where visitors can dine in a gourmet restaurant 100 feet above the Strip, or travel (via glass elevator) to an observation deck at the top for a panoramic view of the Las Vegas Valley.

Green Chili Polenta with Beans and Rice

The first time I had polenta, I thought, "This is the Mexican corn-bread." Well, it is. Polenta is made from corn meal and has a mushy consistency before you cook it. I found mine at Trader Joe's. They have an organic polenta that comes in a tube like breakfast sausage. For my vegetarian friendly cooking habits, it's a great find.
This polenta is not your momma's polenta--probably because your momma never made polenta. But it's still delicious and easy! That's the best combination, or shall I say combinacion?
Ingredients
2 packages of polenta (I got mine from Trader Joe's, but you can probably find it in your local grocery in the Hippie food section)
1/2 cup of frozen corn
1/2 cup of frozen spinach
1 12-14 oz can of green chili enchilada sauce
1 small can of diced green chiles
1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup of shredded Mexican cheese
1/4 cup diced green onion (you could use white or red onion if you want)
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
And rice and beans of your choice. I prefer black beans (drained and rinsed) and classic Spanish rice.
Directions1. Start the rice. It is usually easy, but takes the longest, so you want to get that going first.
2. In a medium size pot, add spinach, corn, diced green chilies, Mexican cheese, onion, and enchilada sauce.
3. Bring the pot to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes on low. Stir regularly.
4. Slice the polenta into 1/4-1/2 inch slices.
5. Coat a frying pan with the olive oil. Fry the polenta until brown and crusty (3-5 minutes on each side)
6. Meanwhile, warm the beans in microwave safe dish.
7. Continue to stir green chili sauce.
8. Serve by placing the polenta on the plate with rice and beans. Smother the polenta with the green enchilada sauce mixture and top with Greek yogurt.
Enjoy! This dish has all of the flavors of a great Mexican dish! It's delicious, quick, and inexpensive.

Brunch at Twisted Fork
One of the most delicious satisfying breakfasts I've had. The Egg Benny dish is full of different flavors, from the backed beans, the smoked salmon, hollandaise sauce, and potatoes. I found this dish to be very tasty, and filling.... This was the perfect start to my Relaxing Saturday.
I highly recommend brunch at Twisted Fork.

While no one can guarantee that trip and falls, or slip and falls will not happen, a hotel or resort can provide safe pedestrian areas to prevent avoidable injury. In many cases, it is important to obtain photographs of the scene of the fall. Unsuspecting injury victims who trust the hotel or resort to “do the right thing,” may be surprised when the dangerous condition is corrected and the owner or operator denies responsibility. In one premises liability case, water had accumulated on the tile floor and caused our client to slip and fall. A family member wisely took photos and prevented the owner from later denying the existence of water on the floor.

World Most Inclined Hotel

Capital Gate in Abu Dhabi is set to enter the Guinness Book of Records as the ‘world’s most inclined tower.’ It will lean 4 times as far as Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Capital Gate will accommodate the 5-star Hyatt at Capital Centre hotel and will provide the most exclusive office space in Abu Dhabi. The tower forms a major part of the Capital Centre development, a $2.2 billion business and residential micro city being constructed around the thriving Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.
The new 200 room, 5-star hotel to be operated by Hyatt International will open in late 2009 and will be the first Hyatt operated hotel in the UAE capital. In recognition of its significance and its stature, Hyatt International has named the hotel ‘Hyatt at Capital Centre’. It will be one of the most exclusive business hotels in the world. Hyatt International already operates 3 luxury hotels in Dubai, UAE under the brands Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt and Hyatt Regency.
Capital Gate leans westward an astonishing 18 degrees; by comparison the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans less than 4 degrees. Because of its unique posture, the tower is being constructed on top of an incredibly dense mesh of reinforced steel. The dense mesh sits above an intensive distribution of 490 piles which have been drilled 30 meters underground to accommodate the gravitational, wind and seismic pressures caused by the lean of the building.
Its graceful, asymmetric diagonal structure, known as a ‘diagrid’, supports the tilting external load of the building and we believe that this is the first building in the world to use a pre-cambered core. Other diagrid buildings include the Hearst Tower in NYC and the “Gherkin” in London.
Besides being believed to be the ‘world’s most inclined’ building, Capital Gate also features 728 unique custom-made diamond-shaped glazing panels. Due to the structure’s curving shape, each pane of glass is different and each will be fitted at a slightly different angle.
