Steak
A steak is a slice of meat that is cut from the flesh of an animal or a large fish. Beef steaks are by far the most popular type of steak. However, steaks of chicken, turkey and lamb are also ordered in restaurants. Steaks may be cooked by grilling, roasting, pan-frying or broiling. Steaks take little time to cook and can be eaten both as an entr?e and as a main course.
They are eaten with rice, noodles, bread or pasta, usually with a vegetable or mushroom side-dish.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) voluntarily grades steaks according to the marbling and the tenderness of the flesh. Marbling refers to the flecks of white fat that are seen within the steak. Almost all the steaks available in the market fall into the first three grades. The best grade of steak (and the tenderest!) is the prime cut.
Filet mignon is the best quality and the softest variety of steak, followed by the sirloin. Only about 2% of steak available in the market falls...

75 years of legalized gambling
Las Vegas celebrates 75 year of legalized gambling this year. Nevada legalized gambling on March 19, 1931 to boost tourism and to replace the tax base lost when the silver mining business went south.
At first gaming took place in small establishments and saloons downtown but in 1941 the first Las Vegas strip hotel opened its doors, the El Rancho Vegas. It was soon to be followed by the Last Frontier and the Desert Inn.
Beautifully decorated resort hotels and gambling casinos featuring top-name entertainment as we know them today came into existence after World War II. Bugsy Siegel opened the Flamingo in 1946 and in 1951 the Gaming Board was created.
Topless Showgirls debut on the Strip with "Minsky's Follies" in 1957 and in 1959 Betty Willis created the famous "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign. During the 1960's Howard Hughes starts the "corporate takeover" of the Strip, new casinos where built and the existing properties where bought removing...
