Bugsy Siegel, a cohort of Meyer Lansky, really turned Las Vegas into a gambling town known for its showy hotel/casinos.

I would say Tim Berners Lee, who basically invented the World Wide Web.  He also created the first web browser and currently directs the World Wide Web Consortium.

me too.  What do you think about this?  I was in Vegas April 17-20.  Outside of a restaurant in MGM i saw Steven, Miguel, and Leighann.  It was in the morning and the place wasn't open.  I was sure they were the top 3 finalists...boy was I wrong.  I still wonder what they were doing there?  They were just standing around chit-chatting.  No one seemed to recognized them but me.

Well, the original lineup was created by Stan (the Man) Lee and Jack Kirby, way back in September of 1963.  Since then, other writers have been responsible for the development and creation of the newer characters....  hope this helps!

Aye! Go to Carson City Neveda, and find Greg Melton; the man who made the Statue of Sutro standing outside the  capitol building..might be in phone book, if still alive.\n  He is part native American, Vietnam vet.\n  Get him to tell you the story " It might be a Rattlsnake!"\n Tell him you were sent by "Strangefoot" who said " God Bless Highway 51"

That is just a nick name given to the city.If you want to live there go right ahead and do it.Just live your life to your own moral standards and let the other people enjoy their own lives."Sin City" is Las Vegas' name because you can do just about anything there within their legal boundaries of the law and sometimes outside that boundary.

Then & Now\nThe Decorators Paradise\n\nWe can't do anything interesting here but type words.  So I will try to explain with words what I see in my mind.\n\nA circular "Logo" with  "T H E N  &  N O W" arched across the top.  "The Decorators Paradise" in an opposit arch around the bottom.  The whole thing on a white background with lots of lacy art work around the edges.  A sort of white, fading to lace on the edges.  In the center, you will have to help me out.  Select two items like an ultramodern end table and a 19Th century lamp setting on it to fill the center of the logo.  The lamp and table is offered only as an example, the idea is to display in the center of the logo a sharp contrast between the new and the old.  If you love this idea (and there is no guarantee you will) contact me we can swap some Email with me sending some pictures of my vision.\n\nGood luck on your venture.

Louis Burt Mayer (July 4, 1882[1] – October 29, 1957) was an early film producer, generally cited as the creator of the star system within Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) in its golden years. Known always as Louis B. Mayer (pronounced Louie) and often simply as "L.B", he believed in "wholesome entertainment" and went to great lengths to collect "more stars than in the heavens".\n\nBorn Eliezer Meir to a Jewish family in Minsk, Russia (now Belarus), his family immigrated to Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada when he was still very young and Mayer attended school there. His father started a scrap metal business and Louis worked with his father in the business until he was in his late teens, when he went to Boston.\n\nOn November 28, 1907 in Haverhill, Massachusetts, Louis B. Mayer opened his first movie theater. Within a few years he had the largest theater chain in New England and in 1916 Mayer partnered with Richard A. Rowland to create Metro Pictures Corporation based in New York City. A Hollywood facility was set up in late 1918. Mayer then left the partnership to start his own production company, Louis B. Mayer Pictures, and later became a partner with B.P. Schulberg in the Mayer-Schulberg Studio. In 1924 Marcus Loew bought Louis B. Mayer Pictures and as part of the deal made Mayer head of the new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.\n\nAs a studio boss, Louis B. Mayer built MGM into the most financially successful motion picture studio in the world and the only one to pay dividends throughout the Great Depression of the 1930s. However he frequently clashed with production chief Irving Thalberg who preferred literary works over the crowd-pleasers Mayer wanted. He ousted Thalberg as production chief in 1932 while Thalberg was recovering from a heart attack and replaced him with independent producers until 1936 when he became head of production as well as studio chief. This made Mayer the first executive in America to earn a million-dollar salary. Under Mayer, MGM produced many successful films with high earning stars including Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Lon Chaney, Joan Crawford, Jean Harlow, Judy Garland and many others. Although he had a reputation for ruthless expediency and allegedly narrow views about what subjects were suitable topics for motion pictures, Katharine Hepburn referred to him as a "nice man" (she personally negotiated many of her contracts with him). Some blame Mayer for Judy Garland's drug addictions, but historical support for this is not clear.\n\nBy 1948, due to the introduction of television and changing public tastes, MGM suffered a considerable dropoff in its success. Three years without an Oscar award provoked further conflict between Mayer and Nicholas Schenck, president of MGM's parent, Loews, Inc. (Mayer is said to have frequently referred to Schenck as Mr. Skunk). Mayer ultimately sold his collection of thoroughbred horses (which he supposedly paid more attention to than his MGM responsibilities), worked to control costs and searched for a "new Thalberg", hiring writer and producer Dore Schary as production chief. Schary (who was 20 years Mayer's junior) preferred message pictures in contrast with Mayer's taste for "wholesome" films. Three years later, Mayer reportedly called Loews headquarters in New York with an ultimatum, "It's either him, or me" and Schenck fired Mayer from the post he'd held for 24 years. Mayer tried to stage a boardroom coup but failed and largely retired from public life.\n\nMayer had two daughters from his first marriage to Margaret Shenberg. Daughter Irene Gladys Mayer, married producer David O. Selznick and second daughter Edith (Edie) Mayer married to producer William Goetz (who became President of Universal Pictures).\n\nActive in Republican Party politics, Mayer served as the vice chairman of the Republican Party of California from 1931 to 1932 and as its state chairman bet

The phrase was coined by former Chicago Mob Boss/politician extraordinare King Mike MacDonald,  He was talking some investors into building another illegal million dollar gambling house Downtown right next to one they just built that was doing very well.  Investors worried about lack of biz and he responded with "There is a sucker born every minute".  He never gambled.

The originator who is the semi-famous science fiction author "L. Ron Hubbard" started it.  Remember the movie "Battlefield Earth"?  it was based on one of his books.   He has been known to say "If you can create your own religion then you would be rich..."  his Dianetics seems to be a mixture of psuedo freudian pop science. It is a cult.
