Telling the truth about the way we live now – Las Vegas Sun

Posted: November 21, 2021 at 10:12 pm

By Laura Pritchett

Sunday, Nov. 21, 2021 | 2 a.m.

One of my graduate students lives in a fire lookout in Oregon, and since I hold my classes on Zoom, my entire class and I have seen snippets of her life. Among them are the dizzying moments when she leaps up to scan for fires while holding her tablet.

At these moments, were treated to a rollercoaster tumble of trees and sky before she settles back down, unless, of course, her tablet overheats, in which case we are put into her fridge, and we get the view from there. Boring classes, these are not.

Since this is a masters program in Nature Writing, there are people Zooming in from the backs of vans and mountainsides, though plenty Zoom from homes in suburbs or cities too, and they hail from everywhere from California to Texas to Nebraska to Idaho.

They have one thing in common, though: Given their self-identification as nature writers, on day one there is a shared emotional foundation, since theyre more aware than most about the devastating change they are encountering megafires, decimated butterfly numbers, aquifers depleted for bottled water, extreme heat, drought and flooding, to name just a few of the topics theyve covered this past semester.

Climate chaos is no stranger to anyone who signs up for such a program, and so they arrive with the grief, anger, moral injury and vulnerability appropriate to our times. Sometimes referred to as GenDread, many are also at the age when theyre faced with climate-related decisions that have long-term consequences too whether or not to have children, for example. Others worry about this for their children or grandchildren.

In this way, Evonne my student in Oregon, whose last name Im withholding has come to embody the cohort in my mind, perhaps because she is literally looking for evidence of environmental disaster as we discuss environmental disaster and how best to respond to it via writing. Not all fires are bad, of course, but megafires could be, and when her lookout was evacuated this past summer, Evonne called to talk.

Thats when I felt the problem more deeply than ever: How do I teach through such startling climate disruption? How do we focus not on loss though bearing witness is important too but on kindling energy and options to envision a better world-to-come? How do prospective survivors get made, those who are honest enough to imagine and face the worst, and, more importantly, follow up with action and oomph?

That is, in the end, what they bring me. Their very energy. And my only hope is that I am able to teach some specifics, such as the importance of solutions-based journalism, the evolution of nature writing, advocacy writing and lyrical writing, the techniques of fiction and nonfiction and poetry. And above all else, the power of a well-told story.

The truest thing I can say, though, is this: Weve been told some bad stories.

Untruths and bald-faced lies about how to live on Planet Earth, perhaps even by nature writers. Were in a mess and the answer is telling new stories. Brave stories. Complex stories that embrace our problematic history of unlocking fossil fuels, or in silencing voices, or in our communication with and about land. We need stories that fashion new narratives about ecological wisdom for our future.

These students are capable of telling them. We all are. Likely, it starts with being better listeners. In the case of fire, for example, we need to deep-listen to scientists, not just for the sound bites, but for the nuance; also, we need to critically consider which stories about our relationship to fire arent working.

Writing is an act of co-creation we write; that story leaps back and creates some new awareness; we write again. We imagine what we have to lose, so we know what we can save. This is how cultures evolve. How humans grow up. We dont need to capitulate to a doomsday future; we can try to write our way toward climate justice and wisdom.

That is what teaching Evonne and everyone she stands for has taught me. We need to examine our old stories, listen well and deeply, and then begin to write new narratives. We need to help our new storytellers, even if it means being put in the fridge.

France vows to keep battling in fishing dispute with UK – Las Vegas Sun

Posted: at 10:12 pm

Published Sunday, Nov. 21, 2021 | 7:05 a.m.

Updated 12 hours ago

PARIS (AP) France's minister of the sea vowed Sunday to continue the fight in the country's dispute with Britain over fishing rights.

Minister Annick Girardin met with fishermen in northern France on Sunday.

We fight every day for these ships, for these licenses, and we will not give up, she told reporters, criticizing the British interpretation of post-Brexit rules over fishing rights as inadmissible.

Fishing is a tiny industry economically, but one that looms large symbolically for both Britain and France, which have long and cherished maritime traditions.

The U.K. licenses are at the center of the dispute following Britains split with the European Union earlier this year. Before Brexit, French fishermen could fish deep inside British waters. Now they need to be granted a special license from the British government or the self-governing British Crown dependencies of Jersey and Guernsey to fish in certain areas.

Those authorities have already granted 961 fishing licenses to French boats, according to French authorities, but France wants about 150 more licenses. Girardin said France set a deadline for the fishing talks, led by the European Union, to end in December.

French President Emmanuel Macron said Friday that France will not yield. The British are playing with our nerves, he said.

Sunday's comments came three days after Girardin said the French government is considering providing financial compensation to French fishermen who can't get licenses. The move had prompted harsh criticism from local fishermen who feared France would give up the fight.

Officers, suspect involved in northeast Las Vegas shooting identified – KTNV Las Vegas

Posted: November 19, 2021 at 5:40 pm

LAS VEGAS (KTNV) The officers involved in a shooting in northeast Las Vegas this week have been identified.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says officers Jeffrey Burr and Damario Simmons were responding to reports that two men, one of whom had a gun, were acting suspiciously at a mobile home park on North Pecos Road near Lake Mead Boulevard Tuesday evening.

The man with the gun was later identified as 25-year-old Taveon Davidson, police say.

When police tried to pat Davidson down to search for a weapon, the department says he ran away. The officers chased after him and say Burr noticed Davidson pull out a gun as he was running.

Police say Davidson ignored commands from the officers to drop the gun, and instead aimed it at Burr and fired one round.

Both officers returned fire and hit him. It is not clear how many times he was shot, though police say he was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Davidson continued to run away, police say, and tried to hop a chainlink fence but fell to the ground.

That's when the police brought him into custody. He was taken to the hospital and treated for his injuries.

Burr is 34 years old and has been employed with the LVMPD since 2009. Police say he fired 13 rounds during the incident.

Simmons is 29 years old and has been employed with the LVMPD since 2021. Police say he fired six rounds during the incident.

Both officers are assigned to the Northeast Area Command, Community Policing Division and have been placed on routine paid administrative leave pending the outcome of a review of this incident.

The shooting is the ninth one involving the department so far in 2021 in LVMPD's jurisdiction, and it was the first of two shootings involving the department this week.

The second, unrelated shooting happened on Wednesday in the northwest part of town, near Cheyenne Avenue and Tenaya Way. Police say a suspected bank robber was shot.

This story has been updated with information from the police.

11 celebrity restaurants on the way to Las Vegas in 2022 and beyond – Eater Vegas

Posted: at 5:40 pm

Las Vegas continues its love affair with celebrities whether they are famous chefs, singers families, or reality television stars. So far, the end of 2021 and into 2022 and beyond look to bring a cavalcade of names that belong in neon lights. Here are 11 celebrity restaurants on the way.

The celebrity news kicked off with Lisa Vanderpump of Vanderpump Rules and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fame announcing her Vanderpump Paris opening at Paris Las Vegas. The new lounge is a follow up to Vanderpump Cocktail Garden at Caesars Palace with whimsical cocktails, and a lush Parisian-inspired decor from Nick Alain. Vanderpump Paris will be located next to the Paris Las Vegas front desk.

Restaurateur John Kunkel of 50 Eggs Hospitality delves into Japanese cuisine when Wakuda opens at the Palazzo in early 2022. Chef Tetsuya Wakuda earned accolades at his two-Michelin-Star Waku Ghin at Marina Bay Sands Singapore and his popular Tetsuyas in Sydney, Australia. In Las Vegas, Wakuda promises his first high-end Japanese restaurant with an approachable omakase experience, touching on some of his classic dishes such as ocean trout confit, perhaps his best-known dish, along with yakitori and dishes cooked over binch-tan.

A new Italian restaurant from celebrity couple Giuliana and Bill Rancic along with Lettuce Entertain You Restaurant partners R.J., Jerrod, and Molly Melman plans to open at the Forum Shops at Caesars in early 2022. RPM Italian takes over the very short-lived Slanted Door space at the front of the shopping center on Las Vegas Boulevard. Pasta with dishes from Guilianas mother Mama DePandi, who appeared often on Bill and Giulianas reality show makes up a bulk of the menu with more than a dozen made in house daily; think Mama DePandis bucatini, Maine lobster ravioli, spicy king crab with squid ink spaghetti, and lobster fra diavolo.

Chef Todd English opens a hotel and restaurant in the Arts District in 2022. The chef, who has The Beast Food Hall at Area15 and Olives by Todd English at Virgin Hotels, teamed up with Z Life Co. on the $30 million project that brings The English Hotel and The Pepper Club with sushi and oysters to a restaurant with a patio and glass-enclosed chefs table at 921 S. Main Street near Coolidge Avenue.

Bobby Flay opens two more outposts of Bobbys Burgers at Harrahs Las Vegas, across Las Vegas Boulevard from Flays original location inside the Forum Food Hall at Caesars Palace as soon as December. In March 2022, its headed to the increasingly star-studded Paris Las Vegas.

Nobu Matsuhisa and his fusion cuisine that melds traditional Japanese dishes with Peruvian ingredients arrive at a third Las Vegas location in early 2022 at Paris Las Vegas. While the chef already has Nobu at Caesars Palace, attached to his very first hotel that opened in 2013, and Nobu at Virgin Hotels, his newest location takes over the former Sekushi space on Le Boulevard next to Caf Americano and across from the hotel elevators.

Walk-Ons Sports Bistreaux comes to the Las Vegas Strip in early 2022. Walk-Ons plans to take over the former Toby Keiths I Love This Bar & Grill at Harrahs Las Vegas with a sports dining venue. Brandon Landry and Walk-Ons teamed up with Hash House A Go Go for the opening. Former New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees is a part-owner. The Harrahs location will be the first to offer breakfast as well as the Walk-Ons menu of crawfish etouffee, duck and andouille gumbo, and Krispy Kreme bread pudding.

Celebrity entrepreneur, TV personality, and culinary tutor Martha Stewart will debut her first restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip at Paris Las Vegas sometime in 2022. Parent company Caesars Entertainment released no information on the potential restaurant or what Stewart could offer, but the resort allocated an estimated budget of $100,000 to selectively demolish an existing space on the Strip property to make way for the new restaurant.

Blake Shelton brings his own venture to Las Vegas in 2023. The country music singer and coach on The Voice plans to open Ole Red, a honky-tonk spanning 27,000 square feet, at the Grand Bazaar Shops in front of Ballys Las Vegas with Ryman Hospitality. The $30 million, four-story venue, a fifth from Shelton, plans to offer dining and 686 seats, as well as two floors overlooking a central stage for concerts daily. The 4,500-square-foot rooftop also plans to offer music, food, and beverage with views of the city.

Nellies Southern Kitchen and its Southern cooking head to Las Vegas, opening as soon as spring in the former Hecho en Vegas space at the MGM Grand. Kevin Jonas Sr., the father of the Jonas Brothers, opens an ode to his grandmother Nellie and her biscuits. The 11,000-square-foot restaurant features a menu of chicken and dumplings, pulled pork smoked over pecan wood and stuffed on sandwiches, chicken and gravy, and a Southern meatloaf, and plans to have live entertainment as well.

Las Vegas gets its chance to order Cronuts rolled in sugar, stuffed with cream, or topped with glaze when pastry chef Dominique Ansel opens the first outpost of his eponymous bakery at Caesars Palace next to Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill in summer 2022. Dominique Ansel Las Vegas plans to serve the DKA (Dominiques kouign amann), a caramelized croissant with flaky layers inside and a caramelized crunchy crust outside; the Cookie Shot with a warm chocolate chip cookie shaped like a shot glass and filled with Madagascan vanilla milk for a riff on milk and cookies; and Frozen Smores with a center of Madagascan vanilla bean ice cream covered in crispy chocolate feuilletine, and then wrapped in honey marshmallow and torched to order.

New factory moving into North Las Vegas will create 120 jobs – KTNV Las Vegas

Posted: at 5:40 pm

NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev. (KTNV) Dozens of new manufacturing jobs are coming to North Las Vegas.

Vancouver-based Evanesce, a company that makes plant-based take-out containers and cutlery, is part of a recent wave of businesses setting up shop on the north side of town.

This manufacturing plant is expected to create 120 new jobs to start. City leaders say it's part of the first wave of new, attractive opportunities in North Las Vegas.

Weve actually made our first three hires for the factory, and well be adding a lot more headcount in the near future, said Scott Duddy, COO of Evanesce.

Evanesce has a factory on the east coast in South Carolina, and now, it is growing its ambitions on the west coast.

Having access to the Las Vegas market in itself and being located there just made a lot of sense, said Duddy. From all of the single-use plastics and Styrofoams used today, and hopefully being part of the solution for Las Vegas going forward.

Evanesce is the fourth company announced in North Las Vegas in six weeks. It joins Ball Corp., Nuro, and Tapestry.

Weve seen a great influx, since the pandemic has started, of companies wanting to come here, said John Lee, mayor of North Las Vegas.

These all come with a total of 1,000 new jobs in the next couple of years.

Were excited about people traveling here, enjoying their vacations, said Lee. But we also want, if something happens to the economy again, were not so beholden to the airlines shutting down or the governor shutting down business.

For a city continuing to claw its way out of a rut dating back to the recession, North Las Vegas leaders say the additional jobs will help their city become the most fiscally stable in the valley.

In fact, I think we still, unfortunately, have the highest unemployment ratio in the state, said Jared Luke, director of government affairs for North Las Vegas. Coming out of this pandemic, it means the world not only to us as employees of the city, but to the residents themselves, that they have sustainable, long-term employment opportunities that have kind of been missing for quite some time.

The new factory will open within the first three months of next year at 5445 E. North Belt Road in North Las Vegas.

Derek Carrs treatment of Ruggs and Gruden highlights his nuanced compassion – The Guardian

Posted: at 5:40 pm

Tragic is the only word to describe the downfall of Henry Ruggs III. The young wide receiver had dedicated his football career to Roderic Scott, his best friend who died in a car accident during high school. Ruggs honored his friend while announcing his college football commitment to Alabama in a heart-rending video partially filmed at Scotts grave site.

For it all to end with the 22-year-old killing a young woman in an early morning car crash while driving at speeds of up to 156 mph under the influence of alcohol makes you want to scream. The NFL and his now former team, the Las Vegas Raiders, surely warned him about how easy it is to get sucked into just such a nightmare during their mandatory rookie orientation sessions.

But before the critics could pile on and spin Ruggs who faces up to 46 years in jail into yet another allegory of the perils of athletic entitlement, Derek Carr stepped into the firing line. Speaking to reporters at Las Vegas team facility, the Raiders quarterback choked up. He offered his condolences to the families involved, confessed the situation broke my wife and Is heart, and blamed himself. (I do sit back and think did I not let him know that Id be there for him at 3am? he mused.) But no statement was quite as striking as Carr pledging his continued support for Ruggs. He needs people to love him right now, the quarterback said. If no one else will do it, Ill do it.

To say the Raiders season has been star-crossed takes some spunk in a city where luck is famously fickle. Still: just days after the release of Ruggs, who was seemingly on the verge of a career breakout, a video of cornerback Damon Arnette making death threats while waving a firearm surfaced on social media, prompting the team to cut him. And of course all of this started in October after the teams head coach, Jon Gruden, resigned after emails in which he used racist, misogynistic and homophobic language became public. (Late last week Gruden said he plans to sue the NFL over the release of the emails.)

Its been a traumatic time for the other players on the team, the bulk of them innocent bystanders. Yet you cant help but wonder how much worse for them it would be if the Raiders didnt have Carr holding them together. And while his arm strength for that job remains beyond doubt Carr rates among the NFLs leaders in passing yards and completion percentage its his character that stands out most.

Given the way the season has spiraled, many ultra-competitive athletes like Carr an eighth-year pro who seems as if hes been playing to keep his job for the past three seasons would have felt bitter or even hostile toward anyone who hampered their sporting success.

But when the Gruden bombshell rocked him, Carr was quick to gather himself and say of the coach who openly flirted with the idea of drafting players to replace him in 2019, I love the man [but] you hate the sin.

And lest you think Carr is having it both ways or, worse, just saying what he thinks folks want to hear, its good bet hes rooting for Grudens lawsuit, too. If we just started opening up everybodys private emails and texts, people will start sweating a bit, said Carr, who was building a home next door to the coach and paid Gruden a visit shortly after news of his departure broke. Hopefully not too many, but maybe thats what they should do for all coaches and GMs and owners from now on. You got to open up everything and see what happens.

After Ruggs threw his life away and with it a downfield connection that was just starting to develop between him and the QB, Carr was agonizing about the human toll of the crash rather than the sporting one. I walked by and saw Henrys locker today, and for whatever reason that got me, Carr revealed. Like, hes not gonna be there. Not because hes fast. Not because of what he could do for me. But because of the person that he is, and because I love him.

Indeed, its easy to see Carr as NFLs patron saint of nuanced compassion. Whats more, he doesnt hesitate to credit his unwavering sense of empathy to profound Christian faith and takes seriously his standing as a role model for devotion in action. But unlike other athletes who are forceful about spreading the gospel and perform their Christianity in public, or alienating others who dont believe or live as they do, Carr reveals the power in understatement.

And, unlike other athletes who have been hostile to the idea of sharing a locker room with a gay player, he dismissed anyone who might consider rejecting his Raiders teammate Carl Nassib, who earlier this year became the first active NFL player to come out. Were a family when we come in this building. We better treat him like such. And so, from my point of view, its been good, said Carr.

Nor does Carr make a big production of Tebowing before kickoff or offering thoughts and prayers or otherwise exerting any misguided sense of moral superiority. No, Carr just concedes, straight up, that life is complicated but he still has love to give and is sincere about how that dissonance can be emotionally paralysing at times. For a guy who makes his reputation with one arm, its an especially nifty two-hander in the age of cancel culture.

Carr sets an enviable leadership standard. You might not agree with his religious beliefs or stomach his forgiveness for Ruggs and Gruden. But theres a reason why his conviction is something to admire and, perhaps, even aspire to. And thats because this pirate patron saint still somehow manages to come off as human no matter how minor or major the tragedy.

The iconic life of Barbie lands in Las Vegas – Lasvegasmagazine

Perhaps the most popular toy in history has her own homage. Barbie: A Cultural Icon features not only more than 150 vintage dolls, but also interviews from some of the designers responsible for the many different incarnations. Barbie has an amazing and inspiring history, said Tim Clothier, the CEO of Illusion Projects Inc., which partnered with toymaker Mattel to produce the exhibit. There is a real sense of nostalgia when you see what was happening in the world, and in Barbies world, when you were a kidand then follow the story to how shes impacting our world today.

For Barbie fans, the holy grail might be the display with the very first doll that Mattel produced in 1959. The first Barbie Dreamhouse is here as well. As someone who gave her Barbie a haircut and regretted it in all the years after, that glimpse back in time will be welcome indeed.
