He who is silent and bows his head dies every time he does so. He who speaks aloud and walks with his head held high dies only once.

One usually dies because one is alone, or because one has got into something over one's head. One often dies because one does not have the right alliances, because one is not given support. In Sicily the Mafia kills the servants of the State that the State has not been able to protect.

He who doesn't fear death dies only once.

Las Vegas is one of the top destination getaways in North America and a great value compared with the alternatives such as Disney World, New York City and San Francisco.

Despite the phenomenal growth of Las Vegas, the construction talent pool is not deep enough to provide the needed labor to build all currently announced projects. We believe if all announced and anticipated projects were to proceed before the end of the decade, a significant portion would not get off the ground given the limited depth of the construction talent pool, most importantly subcontractors.

We believe that higher bids could be likely from both Colony and Pinnacle.
