Vegas tycoon Steve Wynn has flexed his muscles once again, this time releasing Encore Beach/Surrender Managing Partner Bob Mancari. Surprising news following a busy Labor Day weekend.
Bob Mancari has been a notable personality in Las Vegas for many years, both as a successful casino executive and a nightclub dignitary. His clientele list boasts names like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods and Charles Barkley, just to name a few. No details have been released as to why this decision was passed down.
Over the past two weeks, Mr. Wynn has bought out nightclub partner Victor Drai, 86'd Paris Hilton form all of his properties and parted ways with two of his top-level nightclub executives.

What happens when an adult male lion asks for a late check-out and doesn't get one?
Something like this...(video)
Thankfully, the trainer in the video escaped with a just few stitches, but something tells me that this story is far from over.
Maybe the MGM should stick to displaying lion CUBS? They are cuter to look at and a lot easier to handle.

Much like a "Get Out of Jail Free" card, one candidate for Nevada State Governor is proposing a $25 fee that would allow drivers a 24-hour speeding pass.
Candidate Eugene "Gino" DeSimone thinks that this is the answer to the state's budget crisis, while State Troopers argue this idea would cause a safety crisis of its own on Nevada Highways.
Leadfoot drivers would first have to pass a vehicle safety inspection and be fitted with a transponder before being able to purchase the right to speed up to 90 mph.
Itching to get away this upcoming weekend? Considering Las Vegas could be the best bet for your dollar.
To begin, there is no threat of Hurricane or inclement weather.
Secondly, room rates are incredibly inexpensive and cheap flights are abundant, if you can extend your visit through Tuesday or Wednesday.
As we mentioned in and earlier post, the talent line-up for the Day and Nightlife scene competes with any big music festival you've heard about or experienced in the past.
For many, this is their last opportunity to get away and rage, Labor Day weekend wraps up one of the busiest travel seasons of the year.
We understand you probably forgot.
But it's September again and this signifies the birth month of Jasper Newton Daniels...better known as "Jack."
Truth is, NOBODY remembers the exact day he was born, thus starting a tradition of a party that lasts 30 days.
To honor him, a 160th Birthday cocktail has been created by the folks here at NightlifeLeader.com.
A cocktail worthy of a refined taste, such as yours, to share with your family and friends over the next few weekends.
How to prepare:
Grab a rocks glass(clean or dirty...it doesn't really matter)
Add three fingers of Jack Daniels
We tried to come up with a name for it, so we handed a few to some friends and got a fairly unanimous response.
The latest headlines will tell you that her partying days in Las Vegas are numbered. They quote "industry executives" as stating "Considering she’s busted for cocaine, people might assume that she’s going to the club either to use coke or she’s already on coke, and no club wants to be associated with that.”
Turning Paris Hilton away from a nightclub on suspicion of using or possessing cocaine will happen the same day Ben Roethlisberger gets turned away on suspicion of being a creepy drunk around women.
It's likely that Paris will lay low for awhile, as most celebs do. But rest assured, she will not miss the next big media covered party, arriving clean and sober to blow kisses to the cameras and show that she is a changed person.

Apparently Marcus Jordan was busy tending to his High School studies, a couple years ago, when the "What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas" campaign went national. Or maybe they should have been more specific and said "ohhh, and you have to be of legal age!"
Michael Jordan's 19-year-old son, Marcus, tweeted Aug. 20 about spending $35,000 at Haze Nightclub at Aria Resort & Casino, causing MGM Resorts International to fall under investigation.

According to employees at the Oakland International Airport, Wayne -- who left his private plane to rot after repairs became too expensive -- finally paid the aircraft's mounting storage fees last month and had it shipped to his famous Casa de Shenandoah estate in Las Vegas.
We're told the plane had to be disassembled to make the long haul from Michigan to Nevada -- but it has since been put back together ... and now resides in the yard of Wayne's Las Vegas estate for all to see.

This city is known throughout as The Entertainment Capital of the World. People flock here to do exactly that – be entertained. It's true, the action never stops in Vegas.
The Nightclub and Pool Party industries have been progressively transforming the city into a mecca of music from around the globe on these big Holiday weekends with parties that last nearly 24 hours a day.
This year's line-up includes giants like Paul Oakenfold, Erik Morillo, Roger Sanchez, Benny Benassi, DIDDY, LMFAO, Boris, Sharam, Kaskade, just to name a few...literally!
If unrestrained self-indulgence is what your looking for, we encourage you to plan ahead so you can spend more time partying and less time waiting in lines.
Las Vegas has retained its crown as the nation’s most popular Labor Day destination, a leading Internet travel company says.
Orbitz.com on Monday will release its annual list of the most frequently booked destinations for the Labor Day weekend, Sept. 3-6. Based on air and hotel bookings through the site as of Aug. 19, Las Vegas holds the top spot.
It’s the third straight year that Las Vegas has led Orbitz’s Labor Day weekend bookings.
New York, Chicago, Denver, Seattle, San Francisco, Atlanta, Boston, Orlando and Los Angeles trail Las Vegas on the site’s list.
10. Raoul Duke(Jonny Depp) from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas:
No matter what age, race or class, some people will step away from their “normal life” and partake in “extra-curricular activities” to keep the party going 24/7 while in Las Vegas.
9. Ben Sanderson(Nicolas Cage) from Leaving Las Vegas:
Parallel to #10, most guys will drink well beyond their means while visiting Sin City and some will likely fall in love with an “entertainer” and use the phrase “I need a vacation after leaving Las Vegas.”
8. Nick Papageorgio from Vegas Vacation:
It really doesn’t matter if your “of age” or just a Vegas Virgin, everyone knows someone that has had incredible dumb luck gambling in a Las Vegas casino for the first time.
7. Rusty Ryan(Brad Pitt) from Ocean’s Eleven:
He’s the guy that has it all under control in Vegas. The detail man, a pro at pretending to be someone else and is the person that everyone else turns to for help or advice.
6. Trent(Vince Vaughn) from Swingers:
I’ll admit, after 10 years of living in Las Vegas, hearing someone shout “VEGAS BABY, VEGAS!” is still funny and exciting…in moderation. But I caution all to end it there. You’re not “money” and no one gives a rat’s ass about the Rain Man Suite anymore.
5. Alan(Zach Galifianakis) from The Hangover:
Ok, maybe you’re not this guy, but you definitely have one in your circle of friends. He’s the fun loving, somewhat quiet guy, that just wants to best friends with everyone and doesn’t get away very often. He’s completely harmless, until he secretly spikes your drink with a date rape drug.
4.James Bond from (pick one):
Really no need for explanation here, just watch the clip.
3. Cousin Eddie:
"I haven't seen a beatin' like that since somebody stuck a banana in my pants and turned a monkey loose."
If you’ve ever taken 30 seconds to people watch while in Vegas, you might find yourself wondering if there is a factory somewhere that churns out Cousin Eddies by the millions. Whether you see them walking the world famous Boulevard, in the casinos with a yard of Margarita or in the mirror...they're out there.
2.Sam “Ace” Rothstien(Robert DeNiro) Casino:
Listen to me very carefully. There are three ways of doing things around here: the right way, the wrong way, and the way that DeNiro did it. You understand? Every guy wants to think he's "connected." There isn’t a man alive that wouldn’t want to do Vegas like Ace. Minus the, getting blown up in your car thing…
1. Elvis Aaron Presley:
The man lived a life of unmatchable opulence and his impact on this city can be seen everywhere. Undoubtedly, EVERYONE at some time or another has mimicked Elvis, stated they “have left the building,” exclaimed “Viva Las Vegas” or muttered low and slow…”Thank you, thank you very much.”
MAGIC International, one of the city’s largest conventions, opened Tuesday in Las Vegas.
The fashion convention is held twice a year in Las Vegas, once in February and again in August. What is known as one of the world’s largest fashion trade shows spans across the convention show floors at both the Las Vegas Convention Center and the Mandalay Bay convention center.
While MAGIC wouldn’t disclose attendance numbers, the Las Vegas Visitors and Convention Authority expects the convention to draw about 75,000 attendees.
More than 3,500 exhibitors — 1,400 of them new to MAGIC — will be showing at this week’s conference. Organizers said this is the largest assortment of brands they’ve had in the last five years.
So you've decided to head to Vegas for a 3 to 4 day bender of hell-bent furry?

Bypassing the crazy lines at Nightclubs and Pool Parties in Las Vegas is all about planning ahead. The most important element to any nightlife destination is the crowd. Nightclubs strive to have an eclectic mix of people. Varying styles, status and culture is the recipe for a successful party.
Dress the part: Vegas has some of the most over the top parties on the planet. Millions upon millions of dollars have gone into delivering a truly unique experience for both Nightlife and, most recently, Daylife. Your attire should reflect the stature of the venue you're attending. Simply put, this means no T-shirts on guys at night and no basketball jerseys to the pool.
Cosmos have become a joke in the cocktail world, all thanks to pop culture, but fortunately, mixologists are still discovering new ways to reinvent this classic. The Passion-Politan by Alex Straus of Suite 700 at the Hotel Shangri-La in Los Angeles features rose syrup to commemorate the season of blooming flowers, as well as champagne for some bubbly. Orange liqueur gives the Passion-Politan a much-needed refreshing punch and passion fruit-infused vodka makes it the perfect sweet treat for tropical-themed parties. You don’t need to be Carrie Bradshaw to look fabulous with a Passion-Politan!
Ingredients
2 oz. Passion fruit-infused vodka (We used SKYY Infusions Passion Fruit)
0.75 oz. Orange liqueur
0.75 oz. Rose syrup (We used Moninn)
0.5 oz. Lime juice
Rose champagne
1 Rose petal
Preparation
Combine all ingredients except champagne in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously. Add champagne, stir, and strain into a martini glass. Float the rose petal on top of the cocktail for garnish.

Sin City met its match this weekend as Lady Gaga stopped in Las Vegas to perform at the MGM Grand.
"Gambling and inappropriate attire to ensue," the Lady tweeted of her arrival, "why am i so jealous of strip club stage production[?]"
Perform she did, in a stop on her Monster Ball tour, followed by some major partying at Tao Asian Bistro. Gaga rolled deep with security and friends, "parading through the restaurant in sky-high heels and poufs of lace, with lace veils covering her face," an onlooker said.
The party dined on sushi and sashimi with vegetable dumplings, enjoying the local Vegas flavor -- yet Gaga didn't forget her New York City roots. In the house celebrating his birthday was Tao co-founder Noah Tepperberg (the nightlife guru runs celeb-fave venues including NYC's Avenue), whom she sent a bottle of champagne to mark the occasion.
A more conventionally dressed pair also did some celebrating at Tao as well -- engaged actors Dave Annable and Odette Yustman shared an important rite of passage ...

Looking fabulous at 37-years-old, Jenny McCarthy showed off her fit figure while at The Palms Pool & Bungalows inside The Palms Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on Saturday night (August 14).
Wearing a sexy all-white ensemble, the former Playboy playmate tended to hosting duties at the 4th annual Midsummer Night's Dream soiree.
During the course of the night, "Entourage" star Kevin Dillon happened to be celebrating his birthday (a bit early) - as he was presented a key to The Playboy Club from Palms nightlife leader J-Roc and a few Playboy Bunnies.
Joined by Victor Rasuk of "How to Make It in America," Dillon was also doted with a Playboy-themed cake as Miss McCarthy led the group in singing "Happy Birthday" to the HBO actor.
