There are so many entertainment options and cultural attractions in Vegas, it can be difficult to choose where to go and what to see and do if you’re there for a weekend getaway, business trip, or other limited time-frame reason. However, and especially for you if you fit into this situation, here are a few suggestions for some of the top attractions and adventures you will definitively not want to miss while you are there.

A visit down the famous strip is a definite for most people and if you want to explore the different casinos and street attractions, there are some great double deck bus tours that will guide your way. Meanwhile, there are some popular favorites you’ll want to check out after you get off the bus. One of the first things you’ll notice, well are the casinos of course, meanwhile there are some great Vegas shopping malls on and around the strip. And while you might not think you came to Vegas to hang out at a mall, you’ll quickly notice these are no ordinary shopping centers.

Vegas has some great outlet stores that represent a variety of high end brand names and diverse apparel and accessory spectrum. In addition, there are some incredible novelty stores that are perfect places to find the ideal Vegas souvenir . You can also find great dining options and some of the city’s hot nightclubs in and around shopping areas. If you’re caught trying to decide what to do first, it’s frequently recommended you take a walk down one of the malls. It will lead you in the right direction.

Company parties are either dreaded or highly anticipated. It generally depends on the a combination of the company’s corporate culture and the memories of previous parties. Even the most staid and stuffy accounting company may have a reputation for throwing outrageous and exciting parties while the casual and laid back office ends up having boring company dinners that no one wants to attend.

If you’re tasked with planning the next company party, consider what reputation you have to live up to — or overcome. You’ll likely find that it’s much easier to live up to a grand tradition of parties simply because there will already be a blueprint for you to follow. You’ll already know what food, music, and other factors resonate with your co-workers and you can just make a few adjustments based on budget and theme and you’ll be sure of a success.

On the other hand, trying to overcome a history of bland and forgettable parties can be much harder. People will be predisposed to have a bad time and that attitude can spell the death of even the best party plans. In that case it’s very important to have some sort of ice breaking component to your party. Something that clearly states: this is different than what came before. Consider doing something outlandish: rent a photo booth , hire belly dancers, incorporate a talent contest or karaoke machine. Do something to shake everyone up and get them relaxed so that they can have a good time.

In some parts of the country, Spring is a time for costumes. From Mardi Gras parades to charity costume balls, there are plenty of opportunities for people to put on a mask and become someone else for a few hours. For many people, costumes are intimidating and they can never figure out what to go as. For others, putting on a new identity is something they look forward to the rest of the year.

A good way to figure out what costume to wear to any type of masquerade is to identify your preferences. Think about the things you love in general and then narrow it down until you have a costume picked out. For example: if you love music, you may decide that your favorite era is the 1960s and your favorite band is the Beatles. Then it’s just a matter of searching Beatles Costumes until you find the perfect fit.

The possibilities really are endless. You can choose to be a fictional character, a superhero, a sports star, or dress as a profession other than your own. There are mythical characters like vampires and zombies or you can choose an animal or plant costume to stand out from the crowd. Remember to take into account the theme of a given party or ball . Some will restrict costumes to certain eras, styles, or colors, so you may have to adjust your choice accordingly.

The ability to use fire and the invention of the wheel are often credited as two of the oldest discoveries of humanity; another ancient discovery, less commented upon, is the use of cascading water to cleanse the body, an experience known as the shower. Ancient Greek pottery depicts group shower rooms, while today’s showers are much more private affairs, and over the years a number of different varieties of showers have come into existence. Today, the most common forms of private or domestic showers have remained largely unchanged since the latter half of the 19th century. These two types are the stall shower and a combination of a shower/bathtub.

Various types of showers include the air shower, wherein high pressure air is used to blow away extra dust particles from the personnel in clean rooms. There’s the electric shower, which is a shower stall device that heats the shower water with electric power. In the military, there’s the field shower, used by military forces and governments all over the world. It’s used to remove potentially lethal weapons, such as chemicals, biological agents and radioactive material, from a soldier’s body. There’s the steam shower , which employs a humidifying steam generator to bathe the person in steam, similar to a sauna. There’s also the Vichy shower, where large amounts of warm water are poured over a patron of a spa while the patron lies in a shallow but wet bed (much like a massage table). And there’s the Roman shower, which is a shower type designed without needing a door or curtain.

All of these variations of showering, created for specific purposes, from emergency situations to relaxing settings, suggest how far we’ve come from days of the fire and the wheel.

A great way to orient yourself to a new place or expand on knowledge you might already have about a city is to take one of its sight seeing tours.  Almost every major city in the world has a tour, and Miami, Florida, is no different in that regard:  In fact, you’ll find a number of ways to see and explore inside and outside this South Florida beachside metropolis, some of which are pretty unusual.

First, there’s the Duck Tour, which is the only way to see Miami from the land and sea in the same vehicle.  You will actually be seated inside an amphibious car and, after you’ve hit the landmarks of South Beach, you’ll roll on into the Biscayne Bay for a cruise.  If you’d just like to take some time out on the water, there’s the Island Queen, which offers ninety minutes of narrated cruise on the Biscayne Bay, where you’ll be able to take in the sight of downtown Miami, Fisher Island, Millionaires’ Row, and the Port of Miami.  If these first two options are too high tech for you, then consider an Eco-adventure Tour by exploring Miami in a canoe. You’ll be able to paddle your way through the Coral Gables waterway, or even take a canoe trip at night around Vizcaya Mansion, the Deering Estate.

On dry land, there’s a number of places to go, such as the Art Deco Tour, where you get to see the architectural interests of South Beach, inside and outside.  Miami City Tours will take you to South Beach, Bayside, Coconut Grove and Little Havana, as well as a Biscayne Bay Boat tour.
But if the city gets to be too much, there’s always the Wooten’s Airboat Rides in the Everglades, which are located thirty-five miles to the west of Miami.  No matter which tour you decide upon, you’ll need a place to stay.  Check out this site, and you’ll find a great place that meets your needs after a hard day of exploration.

Lost in Yonkers continues its run at The Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, California. And while the production has been extended due to popular audience demand, it is scheduled to close on March 7 and the theatre claims it is unable to extend it any longer.

Lost in Yonkers is one of Neil Simon’s popular stories of life and struggles living in and growing up in and around New York. This play has a more serious tone and temperament than many of Simon’s other works including the coming of age series known as the Eugene trilogy. The play tells the story of two brothers who have been left in the care of their grandmother and aunt in Yonkers New York after the death of their mother. Their father has taken a job as a traveling sales man to pay off the family’s debt and the two boys are left in the care of their severe and threatening grandmother.

A pivotal moment in the play is a dramatic confrontation between the grandmother and aunt, which drives a further wedge between the members of this incredibly dysfunctional family. Though the play varies from much of Simon’s more light hearted comedic works, it has been extremely popular with audiences and has received great critical acclaim. It has won numerous awards including a Tony Award for Best Play and a Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It also won the Drama Desk Award for Best Play and was adapted into film. The original Broadway production starred Kevin Spacey, Irene Worth and Mercedes Ruehl.
