Mount Charleston
Las Vegas is a city that needs no introduction. With its AAA Five Star Diamond resorts, world-class and Celebrity Chef restaurants, multiple high end and outlet boutiques, spectacular entertainment and nightlife, Nevada's largest city has truly earned its spot as one of the world's premier tourist destinations.
The famous Las Vegas Strip is still lined with flashy mega-resorts, but venture past the flashing neon and dazzling lights and you might just be surprised with what you will find. For the fashionista, there's Caesars Palace and the designer boutiques at The Forum Shops. Shore lovers will adore The Beach at Mandalay Bay, which is miles and miles away from your typical hotel pool. Sun-seekers can also soak up rays at resort pools at the Hard Rock Hotel, Palms and pretty much anywhere else in between. For a good dose of family fun, there are even live animal exhibits begging to be enjoyed at many resorts, like Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage.
Las Vegas is a playground of fantasy-themed mega resorts, attractions, and entertainment. There is no place in the world like the Las Vegas Strip, the 4.2 mile-long stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard is packed with more than 20 of the world's largest casino-resorts and nearly 150,000 hotel rooms. From Bellagio to Circus Circus, Stratosphere and New York—New York, each day in Las Vegas can be a whole new vacation. It is a top three destination in the United States for business conventions and a global leader in the hospitality industry, claiming more AAA Five Diamond hotels than any other city in the world.
As spectacular as the resorts are, the events they offer nearly every night are just as impressive. Las Vegas shows are as well-known as the city itself, masquerade balls, magic shows, comedy acts, headliner concerts, theatrical performances, symphonies, broadway musicals and major music festivals. Diverse special events like the National Finals Rodeo, the PGA's Invensys Classic at Las Vegas, championship boxing, UFC, NHL Vegas Golden Knights, NASCAR automobile racing at the 106,000-seat Las Vegas Motor Speedway and more!
The Strip will undoubtedly keep you entertained for days and days, but don't forget there's a wide world of recreational splendor waiting to be enjoyed just minutes from this famous stretch of road. Within 20 minutes, visitors can drive to the surrounding areas to enjoy incredible rock climbing and world-class views at Red Rock National Conservation Area, or retreat to cooler temperatures at Mt. Charleston.
Las Vegas is a food lover's dream. It is a city dedicated to offer life's guilty pleasures. LAs Vegas is Nevada's desert oasis of neon light, shows, attractions, tours and many adult offerings, but Foodies know that the real reason to come to Vegas is to experience its cuisine. Many of the world's most-celebrated chefs have residency on the Las Vegas Strip, making it easy to keep up with global gastronomy trends. You can dine at The Top of the World, 109 stories above the strip with a 360 unobstructed views of Las Vegas or Dine in the Dark. There's also a vibrant food scene off-Strip that's worth exploring, and a number of excellent annual food and drink events. Pick a type of cuisine—odds are, you'll find it within walking distance.
On May 15, 1905, Las Vegas officially was founded as a city, when 110 acres (45 ha), in what would later become downtown, were auctioned to ready buyers. Las Vegas was the driving force in the creation of Clark County, Nevada in 1909 and the city was incorporated in 1911 as a part of the county. A desert metropolis built on gambling, vice and other forms of entertainment, in just a century of existence Las Vegas has drawn millions of visitors and trillions of dollars in wealth to southern Nevada. The city was founded by ranchers and railroad workers but quickly found that its greatest asset was not its springs but its casinos. Las Vegas's embrace of Old West-style freedoms—gambling and prostitution—provided a perfect home for East Coast organized crime. Beginning in the 1940s, money from drugs and racketeering built casinos and was laundered within them. Visitors came to partake in what the casinos offered: low-cost luxury and the thrill of fantasies fulfilled.
Las Vegas offers a surprising array of interesting museums, such as Las Vegas History Museum, Neon Museum, Atomic Testing Museum, Discovery Children's Museum, Nevada State Museum, Springs Preserve, Clark County Museum, Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, The Mob Museum,Shelby Car Museum, Nostalgia Hot Rods Museum, Burlesque Hall of Fame, Pinball Hall of Fame and the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art. There is truly a great experience for any age or interest!

Luckily just 40 miles northwest of Las Vegas visitors can find all the cool mountain breezes, fresh air and all-around scenic beauty of Mount Charleston. Part of the Spring Mountain Range and Toiyabe National Forest, Mount Charleston ranges from 3,000 to 12,000 feet in elevation. It is Nevada's eighth-highest mountain peak and one of the Top 10 most topographically prominent peaks in the United States. There are residential communities, a ski resort, private camps, lodging, and the home of the nation's first national cold war memorial. Mount Charleston has over 50 miles of marked trails over the rocky terrain. Some of these trails are paved and handicap accessible. There are also strenuous climbs to the top of the mountain. The tougher hikes offer rewards of scenic vistas and unique geology and flora. But hikers of all ages and abilities will find something to enjoy while visiting Mount Charleston, including picnics and camping. Bicycles are permitted on some trails. Mount Charleston and Spring Mountains are typically 20-30 degrees cooler than the valleys, so the area is a popular getaway for both Las Vegas residents and visitors, who want to enjoy an outdoor activity while escaping the brutal desert heat.
Red Rock Canyon was designated as Nevada's first National Conservation Area. Red Rock Canyon is located 13 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip and encompasses 195,819 acres within the Mojave Desert. Red Rock Canyon is an area of worldwide geologic interest and beauty. The area is visited by more than two million people each year. In marked contrast to a town geared to entertainment and gaming, Red Rock offers enticements of a different nature including a 13-mile scenic drive, miles of hiking trails, rock climbing, horseback riding, mountain biking, road biking, picnic areas, nature observing and visitor center with indoor and outdoor exhibits as well as a book store. Red Rock Canyon is home to a diverse mix of plants and animals. From seasonal wildflowers and wildlife to year round plants and animals, you might be surprised at how much life you'll find here!

New protein detonates bacteria from within
By Tim Sandle Jan 29, 2015 in Science
Tel Aviv - By sequencing the DNA of bacteria resistant to viral toxins, scientists have identified novel proteins capable of stymieing growth in pathogenic, antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Today's arsenal of antibiotics is ineffective against some emerging strains of antibiotic-resistant pathogens. Novel inhibitors of bacterial growth therefore need to be found. One way is looking into the viruses that infect bacteria.
Key to the new initiative is the concept of fighting bacteria from within, rather than using an external chemical to batter through the bacterial cell wall. the basis of the new weapon is viral. In order to select an appropriate viral protein, researchers undertook a comprehensive screening exercise in order to identify proteins in viruses that are known to infect bacteria (bacteriophages). Bacteriophages occur abundantly in the biosphere, with different virions, genomes and lifestyles. The review was so comprehensive that it took almost three years to complete.
The screening was achieved through the use of high-throughput DNA sequencing. This is the process of determining the precise order of nucleotides within a DNA molecule. By using this advanced genetic method, the scientists identified mutations in bacterial genes that resisted the toxicity of growth inhibitors produced by bacterial viruses. Through this, a new, tiny protein was found. The protein is termed "growth inhibitor gene product (Gp) 0.6".
Later testing found that the protein specifically targets and inhibits the activity of a protein essential to bacterial cells. The bacterial protein affected has the function of holding the microbe's cell wall together. Without this protein functioning correctly, the cell bursts open from within and the bacterium dies.
For the next wave of research, the Israeli science group are looking further at bacterial viruses with the aim of finding compounds that facilitate improved treatment of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
The research was carried out at Tel Aviv University. The findings have been published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, in a research paper titled "Revealing bacterial targets of growth inhibitors encoded by bacteriophage T7."

Ford denies expansion of Mustang line
Ford has denied outright that it will expand the Mustang lineup, and claims the AutoWeek and Autocar stories are completely false. Both publications released stories earlier this week claiming to have an inside source that was certain the Mustang lineup would include a four-door and estate variants. Ford said in a statement: "Mustang is an icon and will continue in its current form: a unique, two-door, rear-wheel drive, 2+2 performance car."
However, at the 2007 North American International Auto Show, Ford will unveil a four-door, rear-wheel-drive concept car. The concept, known as "The Interceptor", is based on the Mustang's rear-wheel-drive architecture but it is not a Mustang and no production plans have been announced. This could mean simply that AutoWeek's source was confused by the plans for this Interceptor concept, which could possibly go into production. Ford says it will release more information on the Interceptor on December 31st.

Indiana hoping for impressive postseason, too
Jeremy Price 812-331-4342 | jprice@heraldt.com
The Herald Times
What the Indiana basketball team did in the regular season was impressive.
Really impressive.
But an outright Big Ten title, 25 wins and 20 wins in the last 23 games are only vestiges of what was, not what will be.
It's tournament time for the Hoosiers, starting with Michigan at noon today in Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
Maybe there's no more appropriate team for Indiana to play in an effort to show the ability to turn the page.
The lone regular-season meeting saw the Hoosiers go on a conference-record 28-0 run en route to an 80-67 victory.
None of those points carry over to the rematch, and there's no reason to expect a repeat of that performance. It was record-setting, because it just doesn't happen every day.
So what is the Hoosiers' approach now that the postseason is here?
"We're keeping the same mindset that got us here in the first place," junior Troy Williams said.
Said classmate Collin Hartman: "We're going to come out with the same mindset and play the same way."
If that's indeed true, then IU will be in business once the ball is tipped in Indianapolis, then in whatever NCAA destination follows. For when the Hoosiers are locked in mentally, they are a tough team to beat physically.
None the less, this is an Indiana program that has won just one postseason game — NCAA or Big Ten Tournament — in the previous two seasons, has only reached the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament twice and has never won the Big Ten Tournament.
These games are also not held in Assembly Hall, they're on a neutral court. And there's not just regular-season glory on the line, but a place in the history books that goes well beyond putting another year on the Big Ten Championships banner.
It would be easy to feel the pressure of both recent failures and long-ago successes.
"The whole key is to not treat it like there is a lot on the line," IU coach Tom Crean said.
That means business as usual, which for the Hoosiers is keeping the focus on improving themselves. Crean says doing that has its own benefits with little reason to change what's obviously working, while not creating added pressure.
"We don't slice the season up either," he said. "I've done that before, but you've got to keep moving forward. Every day, when you've got a good path like these guys are on, you're going to have some really good things in the day, you're going to have some things you're going to want to correct in the day, but at the end of the day, did you stay consistent in trying to get better? And they've been really good with that."
To that end, Indiana has the luxury of its most veteran team in the past three years. That's resulted in improved leadership throughout the season, spearheaded by the maturation of senior point guard Yogi Ferrell and augmented by the arrival of grad transfer Max Bielfeldt from Michigan.
Outside of the four freshmen who see playing time for the Hoosiers, this is a team that has experienced postseason basketball and didn't like the way the endings tasted.
So, hungry? Yes.
Playing tight? No.
"We really are allowed to play free when we get stops, get run-outs, get into transition," Hartman said. "We don't have to get uptight when we stay with what we do and what we do well. We know what works, and we just gotta stay relaxed and keep everybody focused as a team. Being able to play free really comes when we get stops in transition."
Ah, getting stops. The defense might be the biggest difference of all this postseason, as the Hoosiers struggled to get stops in close games with Maryland in the Big Ten Tournament and Wichita State in the NCAA Tournament a year ago.
Indiana was fifth in scoring defense and second in scoring offense during Big Ten play this season, grabbing the fourth-most steals in the league.
Being able to rely on something more than just a hot shooting night makes it a lot easier to relax and show confidence, tournament time or not.
Yet for all the statistical analysis and the regular-season success, Indiana's postseason all comes down to one thing that doesn't vary regardless of time, place or opponent.
"It's mostly just us, focus on what we're doing," Hartman said. "Staying focused."
Now that would be impressive.

For other uses, see Digest (disambiguation).
The most famous digest-sized magazine is Reader's Digest, from which the size appears to have been named. TV Guide also used the format from its inception in 1953 until 2005. CoffeeHouse Digest is a national magazine distributed free of charge at coffeehouses throughout the United States. Bird Watcher's Digest is an international magazine that has retained the digest size since its creation in 1978.
Digest size is less popular now than it once was. TV Guide dropped it in favor of a larger format. The science fiction magazines Analog and Asimov's had switched to a format slightly larger than digest size several years earlier. The main publications remaining in digest size now are Reader's Digest, Prevention, Guideposts Magazine and some Archie comics digests. Children's Digest was originally in digest size but switched long ago to a larger format as well (though keeping the word "Digest" in its name). Writer's Digest is another publication with the word in its name that is not actually produced at that size.
