		<description>I&#039;m so happy you have this new door and not that old buffet.   Glad you are an independent voice and not part of the same tired cheerleading media squad.</description>

		<description>i have to say im not really shocked hes back..there is no way the forces behind eve didnt know his background...everyone knows...it was such a big story...

the only possible answer has to be this...no matter what a scum bag he is, he and his kind must be making so much money for the higher ups that its worth it for them to turn their heads and take the money...so one day they may get shut down or pay a hefty fine, to the upline this is just a cost of doing business...there can be no other explanation!

two weeks ago i was at pure the next night bank...both clubs were standing room only, everyone was drinking, all the bottle service tables were full, these clubs are cash cows and as long as enough of it flows up, everyone will look the other way...after all whose really getting screwed?  tourist? who really cares, a whole new crop will be arriving tomorrow.  who else is getting the shaft...the service worker?  well guess what, a whole new crop of green service workers will be arriving tomorrow, all bright eyed and eager to take las vegas...the tax collector, dont worry they always get theirs...one way or the other!

lets face it, as long as its worth it to the casinos, the management, the inspectors, law enforcement and politians its going to be status quo...its simple, these scums make money for everybody...&quot;everybody who counts&quot;!</description>

		<description>Great story, Richard.

But as you know from my posts from before when you were with Movable Buffet, THIS is no big surprise to me.

To coin the chorus of an old Loggins and Messina song...&quot;It&#039;s the same old wine...in a brand new bottle.&quot;

Glaring questions need to be asked about all this though.

From the old Pure Management Group days at Caesars Palace a few years back, that place was raided and computers were confiscated.  The last I heard was that charges will be pending soon.

Have they?  Or will they?  Is it still an active investigation by IRS?

Looks like these guys that cause all this are getting away scot free with stuff.  When the heat comes down on them, they disappear for awhile, then reappear somewhere else.  In this case, driving Prive at P-Ho into the ground so badly they lose their liquor license and causing the casino to be fined heavily, not to mention scrabbling around to try to at least get a temporary liquor license to operate.

You really can&#039;t tell me these idiots do a heavy hand on clubs, not only the patrons but the servers (separating tips two-for-me, one-for-them shit), leaving a scorched earth policy behind them, then re-surface somewhere else?

It&#039;s unbelievable the corporate world hires them and lets the cycle continue.  There seems to be one constant though.  These players seem to levitate to properties that have no knowledge of what they did before or what their infamous history is.  The scam continues if they fall under the radar; somewhere where they are not known.

Which leads to the last question...  When does this merry-go-round stop?</description>

		<description>Good post, but I don&#039;t think many view the work of any &quot;nightclub reporter&quot; as a source for serious journalism or journalists.</description>
