Would you love to visit Las Vegas?


Las Vegas, the city of all sins and the city where anyone can really have a great time seems to be facing some problems these days as tourism is also affected by the current financial crisis. In fact, more and more people are willing to travel to this city as prices tend to get more accessible. Below, you may read an msnbc.com review and take your own conclusions:

"

LAS VEGAS - Sin City is worried that its well-honed style is crimping its business.

Born of carefully crafted slogans — "What happens here stays here" — and smiling, sequined showgirls, the image of a 24-hour adult Disneyland with free-flowing booze and casino chips is making the tourist destination seem radioactive to companies keen on not appearing frivolous as they seek government bailouts.

In the past two weeks, at least four major companies canceled meetings worth hundreds of thousands of dollars — not because of costs but because of appearances. Even President Barack Obama questioned the propriety of flying off to Las Vegas if taxpayers were helping foot the bill.

Tourism officials, already nervous after watching meeting and convention attendance decline 5 percent in 2008, are challenging the impression that business meetings are wasteful — especially those conducted under the neon lights of Las Vegas.

"It's necessary, for us to thrive in this community, that folks come here and realize that this is not some stepchild," Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman said. "This is a very important place for people to conduct very important business."

Goodman — who often appears at functions with a showgirl at each arm — sent a letter this week to Obama objecting to his remarks.

Taking the most out of the best North American glacier getaways


Do you love to visit the top glacier getways in the world? What about those ones that you are able to see in the US too? The truth is that we often end up noticing that we tend to ignore the beauty of the places that we can find on the US and we simply travel to Europe and other destinations where we won't find half the beauty! In order to help you understand that, you may read the following msnbc.com article and take your own conclusions:

Gazing upon the cliff and glacier-strewn east coast of Canada’s Baffin Island, Dr. Garth D. Jackson squints as he locates himself on the tattered map in his hand. He is standing on a cruise ship deck, and the map of Canada’s High Arctic — which Jackson, 79, helped research decades ago — flaps in the breeze. His memories of the island before him have faded somewhat over time, like the map's yellowing paper, but there are certain glaring changes to the landscape.

“Some of the glaciers have obviously receded,” said Jackson, an intermittent member of the Canadian Geological Survey from 1965 through 1994. “A lot of Baffin Island’s valley glaciers are still there, but they don’t come as close to the water. And they’re not as thick. Rocks poke through the middle of them, and it wasn’t like that before.”

Jackson retraced some of his decades-old footsteps by chartering an Adventure Canada cruise ship with his family and roughly 90 other passengers. They admired bowhead whales and polar bears from the ship’s deck, explored the many fjords of Baffin Island and made stops ashore to hike the tundra, look for wildlife and visit local communities. There are other trips, too, including one that crosses the fabled Northwest Passage and retraces the paths of some of the world’s most notable (and ill-fated) explorers.

The best ski resort restaurants for you to visit!


Do you love snow and the winter? Well, if that's the case, then you have tried some of the finest ski resorts in the world for sure! Still, have you ever tried their cuisine? This is exaclty what's being discussed on the article just below and which you are able to read in full detail on msnbc.com and which will give you a much clear idea of how impressed you will be when you try some of their food!

"

Apart from a bubbling hot tub with a champagne bucket chilling in the snow, few things can coax winter weary bones into another day on the mountain like a soul-warming feed.

In North America, ski food has long meant comfort food: steaming bowls of chili. Platters heaped with pasta meant to load you with carbs for the afternoon’s runs. And plates of messy nacho goodness enjoyed après-ski.

Over the past decade, however, ski towns across the country — from Killington to Lake Tahoe — have seen a food revolution with an eye on bringing classier fare to the slopes that’s evocative of the region while drawing on a European sense of refinement.

All that creativity in the kitchen is really upping the mountain-town ante. Forbes.com recently named Salt Lake City an up-and-coming culinary capital, putting the spotlight on the city’s local farmers and artisan cheese makers, bakers and chefs for “remaking the city’s culinary image.”

British Airways passenger jet collapsed


Just as it has been recently covered by all the Tv channels, more and more airlines are facing some difficulties in order to get over the current financial crisis and they often reduce the quality of their services in order to be able to overcome the situation. Still, sometimes things tend to go wrong and that's exaclty what happened in London today as you can read from the msnbc.com article below:

"

LONDON - The nosewheel of a British Airways passenger jet collapsed with a loud bang as the aircraft landed Friday at London City Airport, sending the plane scraping across the tarmac with 71 people aboard, officials and witnesses said.

All aboard escaped by emergency slides, but one person was taken to a hospital with a minor injury.

BA Flight 8456 was flying from Amsterdam to London when its front landing gear failed and the front wheel fell off.

"As a precaution the emergency slides were deployed and passengers were evacuated down the slides onto the runway," the airline said in a statement. "One passenger suffered a minor injury."

The airline said the Avro 146 RJ100 — made by BAE Systems — was carrying 67 passengers and four crew. London firefighters said accident happened around 8 p.m., and ambulance officials reported that four people were treated for minor injuries.

One of the passengers Ray Hamblin, said: "The front wheel collapsed, the cabin filled with smoke and everyone had to vacate from the rear of the plane. People were pretty calm at first but when the plane started to fill up with smoke, people were not moving fast enough and they got pretty fractious.

"

"As I came off the emergency slide I hit my wrist on the runway. I think there are a couple of people with cuts and scrapes."

Justin Fletcher, told the British Broadcasting Corp. that "there was obviously quite a loud bang as the plane scratched in. The stewards and stewardesses were quick to evacuate everyone off. There was a few scrapes and cuts due to hitting the asphalt. All in all everyone seems to be doing quite well now."

Do you love basketball?




When thinking about the sports that we love, I would say that basketball could probably be the favorite one of most of us.... In fact, watching some sports on Tv or going to the stadiums and see it live are probably some of the best ways of forgetting about the current financial crisis! Below you may read an msnbc.com article telling you the story of the last Dallas' game:

"

DALLAS - Kevin Garnett was frustrated and sitting on the Boston bench after getting three fouls in a matter of seconds while battling with Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas’ lone All-Star.

Celtics coach Doc Rivers was already in the locker room because of the same sequence late in the third quarter, ejected after two quick technical fouls.

When Garnett finally returned with less then 5 minutes left, Paul Pierce had just given the Celtics their first lead. And they would go on to a physical 99-92 victory Thursday night over the Mavericks.

Pierce scored 18 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter, but gave plenty of credit to his argumentative coach.

“It gave us a nice little spark,” Pierce said. “It can go one of two ways. The coach is gone in the last game before the All-Star break, you can pack it in. But this group is very competitive. We’re going to fight.”

Boston (44-11), the defending champion, goes into the break with the most victories in the NBA. The Celtics won their ninth consecutive road game, even after trailing by as many as 15 points in the third quarter.

Pierce’s tiebreaking 11-footer gave the Celtics a 93-91 lead. At the other end, he took an elbow to the head from a charging Nowitzki, who was called for the foul. Then Pierce made another step-back jumper, from 14 feet, to seal the game.

“I got in my rhythm,” Pierce said. “We had a play that was working. I got into my sweet spot and took the shots.”

Boston never led until Pierce made a tying 13-foot jumper while being fouled by Howard with 5:37 left, then added the free throw to make it 85-84. After Nowitzki missed two shots, stretching his quarter-long drought to six misses in a row, Pierce hit two more free throws after Josh Howard’s sixth foul with 3:47 left.

“I’m going to take the blame for this. We played the Paul Pierce play different ways and had some of our best guys guarding him, but we should have double-teamed him,” Mavs coach Rick Carlisle said.

Nowitzki led Dallas with 37 and Howard had 17 before fouling out.

Ray Allen, playing a night after injuring his thumb in the Celtics’ victory at New Orleans, had 20 points and will play in the All-Star game still. Rajon Rondo had 19 points, 15 rebounds and 14 assists for his second career triple-double, both this season.

After Garnett was called for a non-shooting foul against Nowitzki with 2:27 left in the third quarter, they were exchanging words while setting up for the next play when official Dick Bavetta called a double technical against the two All-Stars.

Only 10 seconds later, Garnett got called for another foul — his fifth personal — and Rivers got a technical as Nowitzki turned around with a triumphant look on his face. After Nowitzki made the free throw and play resumed, Rivers was still arguing and got his second technical.
