From the outside, the house in the exclusive Las Vegas Country Club appears to be par for the course – just another home on the green built during the 1970’s that possesses an old Vegas charm all of its own.
But once inside, the details or “bullet” points emerge. Things like hidden compartments in the top of closets, bulletproof glass windows, 150-pound doors made of metal and triple-thickness wood, a steel staircase, remnants of a state-of-the-art monitoring system and more denote that this was once the home of Frank “Lefty” Rosenthal, the organized crime figure who secretly ran the Stardust and other casinos (without a Nevada gaming license) when they were controlled by the Chicago Outfit. The house, currently up for sale with an asking price of $677,000, is concrete proof of the real inside story in Las Vegas history not depicted in the movie Casino, of which Rosenthal, played by Robert DeNiro, was the subject.
“This historical property is more than a home – it’s a lifestyle,”

BOSTON -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was in a two-car accident near his home at about 6:30 a.m. Thursday morning but was unhurt and attended practice later in the day at Gillette Stadium.
The crash at Commonwealth Avenue and Gloucester Street in Boston’s Back Bay area knocked over a light pole and sent a passenger in the other vehicle to the hospital with injuries that were serious but not considered life-threatening, officials. No charges have been filed.
A witness told The Associated Press that the two-time Super Bowl MVP was approaching the intersection on a green light when his Audi collided with a minivan. No charges have been filed.
Brady’s father had just arrived in Boston from the family’s California home early Thursday and found out about the accident when he got off his flight.
“I understand he’s fine, but I haven’t talked to him,” Tom Brady Sr. told reporters outside his son’s home three blocks from the accident site.

The Salt Lake Tribune
Updated Sep 7, 2010 12:02AM
The Bureau of Land Management will begin rounding up hundreds of wild horses from the mountainous deserts of western Utah on Tuesday, a move the federal agency says is necessary for the health of the land and the wildlife.
The BLM wants to take 480 horses from herds in the Conger and Confusion mountain ranges, about 75 miles west of Delta. That would leave just 27 percent of the two herds in the wild.
The roundups, Utah’s first this season, come as criticism mounts in what is turning out to be the biggest year in memory for removing wild horses from the range.
The BLM’s goal is to capture nearly 31 percent of the nation’s 38,365 wild horses and burros this year; if it succeeds, 11,783 will be pumped into the pipeline for private adoption or sent to pasture in the Midwest. No

KORE, Kore Nutrition, Inc., KORE.OB
Energy drinks have taken the markets by storm. These drinks promise a huge punch of energy after consuming one drink. Typically, the energy comes from sugar and caffeine. The problem with sugar is that once the sugar is absorbed, the sugar levels in the body decrease and one is left feeling really tired and drained – hence the need for another energy drink.
One company has developed an energy drink that has no sugar. Kore Nutrition Incorporated (OTCBB: KORE) has developed a line of energy drinks that are sugar free and have no carbohydrates. It has less than 10 calories per drink. The drink uses herb, vitamins and amino-acids to provide a balanced and sustained sharpening one’s focus and providing pure energy. The drinks come in flavors such as citrus, grape and acai berry. Kore is focusing its initial distributions efforts in the western United States, primarily in casinos.
By eliminating the sugar, that side effect of feeling drained after the drink wears off should be
